Dressed in a heavy bridal lehnga riddhima sat in the centre of the bed looking around at the room in a disinterested manner
And why not
Her parents had forcefully gotten her married to their childhood bestie's son, VANSH RAI SINGHANIA, when she had clearly told them that she was not interested in the topic of marriage
She came out of her thoughts hearing the door open and looked up to see her newly wedded husband entering inside
Coming near her, he sat infront of nervously
V: riddhima i
I know you might be having many expectations from your life partner but iam sorry I can't fulfill any of those
I...i was not interested in this marriage at all
I tried to convince my parents but they were way too stubborn
He looked at her guilty expecting her to slap him hard across his face but to his shock
With a beautiful smile on her face, riddhima threw away her veil and got up from the bed hurriedly removing her jewellery
R: thank god you were not interested in this marriage just like me
Do you have any idea how much worried i was
I was not at all ready to act as a shy bride dying at the thought of her wedding night with her husband
Vansh looked at her amused
V: so you were forced by your parents too
R: duhh
Vansh took a sigh of relief
V: so lets make a peace deal
R: we will pretend to be a happily married couple infront of our family but behind close door we will be free birds
V: great
By the way, why didn't you wanted to marry me?
Do you have someone in your life??
R: nope
I didn't wanted to marry only
Neither you nor someone else
What about you??
V: I don't believe in marriage and love
Riddhima looked at him surprised
R: why??
V: because i have seen my mom and dad
Vansh said sadly remembering how his mom and dad fight like sworn enemies on every single topic and it was no secret that they both were secretly cheating on eachother
Riddhima looked at him sympathetically and squeezed his hand to comfort him
Vansh simply gave her a small smile
Picking up her clothes riddhima went to the restroom to change whereas vansh changed in the room itself
Settling on the bed, both fell into a deep slumber
A few weeks later:
Riddhima was busy combing her hair when her phone rang
Her face lit up seeing her best friend sejal calling her
Picking up her airpods she connected them to her phone and answered the call
At the same time vansh entered inside the room
R: hi sweetheart
Vansh looked at her startled
She has never called him sweetheart before than why was she doing it now
