Arranged Marriage

7.

I finally closed my laptop and stretched in my blanket. While I was sitting in the seat near the window. I was finally done with all the online work. All that's left is the paper work in my office. To which I most likely will not be going to till next week.

I looked at the time and saw it was 4 am. I wrapped myself in my blanket, snuggling and fell asleep.

By the time I woke up again it was 9am. I quickly hurried out of the seat and ran out of the door.

I'm going to be late I'm going to be late I'm going to be late. I raced across the whole house and ran up the stairs completely ignoring at the people staring at me run by.

"Didi wait karo! Bathroom meh...." I didn't know what Titli was going to say and at the moment I did t care to listen. (Didi wait for a moment! in the Bathroom...)

Only if I had though. Because as soon as I entered the bathroom there stood Arjun in front me. He was planning to take a shower.

How could I tell you ask? He clearly was taking his shirt off.

I didn't stay a second longer there and walked outside closing the behind me. I stood in the room with my eyes wide open, did I just see that his muscles. He looked so thin though, but his muscles were very clearly shown, and the fact that I hugged him last night.

All the thoughts of Arjun came crashing at that one moment. I grabbed my clothes for the day and rushed in the bathroom.

I was in my backyard sitting on a stool with all the women and girls around me while all the men's were told to get out of the house.

I sat in the middle as they all started applying haldi on me. Soon after my face and everything that wasn't covered by clothes was now covered I haldi. Even my dress was told to be lifted so now my legs were also covered.

After a while the poured something cold over me.. I closed my eyes in a hurry and didn't open then lest I would get haldi in my face.
