KESARIYA TERA

Chapter 9

The Birlas are now very busy regarding our Neirohi's marriage. Neil decides to have a talk with Manjiri as he was getting bored. When he went to Manjiri's room, he saw Akshu & Manjiri was busy preparing floral jewelry.

Neil: Maa, Bhabhi tum donom kya ban na chahtha hum?

Manjiri: Aarohi keliye, Haldi ornaments

Neil: OHH!! These are so cute

Akshu: Neil, Aaru will also be cute in this jewelry

Neil hides his shyness & continues

Neil: What all did you make?

Akshu: Yeh he uski Maang tikka, yeh he uski long neck chain, yeh he short one, ye he uski anklet, yeh he uski bangles & yeh he uski ear-ring. Woh ear-ring ke saath ek chhoti chain pehnunki hena, we are making it now

Manjiri: Ho gaya

Akshu: Mera bhi ho gaya. I think all are done, mein uski lekar chalti hum ghar se

Manjiri: Abhimanyu kaha hein beta

Akshu: Woh shaadi ki koi important kaam karne keliye bahar jagayi

Manjiri: Teeke beta

Akshu (To Neil): He Dulha Sab, Haldi he tumari aur kal he shaadi...mmmm

Neil feels shy & goes back to his room. Akshu leaves Birla house with the ornaments

The Goenkas where doing the rituals, the bride was supposed to do during the Haldi Day. Akshu arrives with the ornaments. After the rituals were over. They sit at the hall

Mimi: Tum Kairav aur Vansh ko call kar dhiya hei na Manish

Manish: They can reach here tomorrow morning Maa, they will be here for Aaru's marriage

Mimi: You should not have sent them for the business trip during these days

Manish: What should I do Maa, business is very dull. We should nuture the existing business he na...

Akshu arrives with juices

Akshu: Tanda, tanda juice peelo aur mann ko cool rakho. Mein iss juice ko Aaru ko dene ke baad aaungi

Aarohi was in her dream world. She was looking at her palm where the name "Neil" was written

Aarohi: Why are you like this Aarohi? Pagal hogay tu?

She hears Akshu's footsteps & sit normally

Akshu: Yelo, Aaru juice peelo

Aaru drinks the juice & places the glass at her table. Akshu tells her to be ready with the haldi lehenga & she will come soon. Now its almost 4 pm. Akshu gets Aarohi ready with the Haldi dress & ornaments. The Birlas comes for the Haldi ceremony. The Goenkas greet them. Our Neil enters in his yellow-orange sherwani. Abhimanyu makes Neil sit for the ceremony. Akshu comes with Aarohi & makes her sit beside Neil. Neil looks at Aarohi

Neil (thinking): Each time I see you why is my heart beating helplessly

[ Abhimanyu comes towards Neil & applies Haldi on Neil's cheeks. As Akshu was about to apply Haldi on Aarohi's face, Neil stops Akshu]

Neil: Bhabhi rukiye

Neil gets up & comes in front of Aarohi. She was already tensed when Neil stopped Akshu from applying Haldi. Neil shows his hand towards Aarohi. She looks Akshu. Akshu signals her. Aarohi extends her hand. Aarohi stands up. Neil does the unthinkable. He pulls Aarohi towards him. Both their cheeks touched each other; Neil rubbed his cheek on Aaru's cheek hence applying Haldi on her. He does with her next cheek too. Everyone gets shy on witnessing Neil's romantic gesture. Aarohi controlled her emotion & gave a stern look to Neil for his act.
