Pranbir: Heart meant to love you

21.

Kohli's house:
Pranbir came in and noticed Dida and Sonia there. Prachi's smile brightened seeing Dida who she happily hugged.
Dida, to Ranbir:"you too come here and hug your old lady."
He smilingly hugged her as well.

Dida made Prachi and Ranbir sit on the couch and started to talk to Prachi.
Dida:"i hope this grandson of mine is treating you well."
Prachi smilingly nodded yes to Dida while Ranbir looked on.

Dida:"if not, tell me, I will punish him..."
She held Ranbir's ears and twisted it. This made Ranbir leaned on Prachi so that he could escape Dida.
Prachi:"no, no. He is doing his best."
She, sincerely, looked at Ranbir while he also looked at her gratefully.

Dida noticed their eyelock and left them alone. She went to help Pallavi in the kitchen.

Sonia, on noticing their eyelock:"the newly wedded girl changed her outfit, from jeans/hoodie to dress... why? Who do you want to seduce like this?"

Ranbir clenched his fists hearing her and was about to rebuke her but Prachi held his hands, releasing his clenched hands.

Prachi:"sorry to know that you think girls should dress up to impress someone. Because that's not the case, girls dress up for themselves, not to seduce anyone."

Ranbir smiled at her and subconsciously entangled their fingers.
Sonia left from there irritatedly. She nearly bumped into Aryan who escaped her in the nick of time. He placed some cards on the table.

Aryan:"what happened to her?"
Prachi:"doesn't matter... what is all of this?"
Aryan:"Mom made invitation card so you have a look before we sent it to people."

Prachi, excitedly, took one and opened it with one hand. Aryan noticed Pranbir's entangled hands and a smile automatically came on his face.

Prachi:"it's so pretty..."
Ranbir:"it matches with your dress also..."
Prachi, confused:"how do you know my reception dress is this colour."

Ranbir, smirking:"well, I was talking about your dress now. But now I know that your other dress is also this colour."
She childishly grimaced at him while he chuckled.

Aryan pretended to be on his phone but he couldn't help adoring Pranbir's bond. He secretly wished that this doesn't last for only one year but for ever and ever.

Everyone moved to the dinner table and they started talking about the reception.
Pallavi:"so venue, dress, cards are done. We just need to send the invitation.
Prachi, I know there is not much people you know here but if you want to invite someone..."

Prachi nodded no:"just my family and only the lady whom we bought the dress from."
Aryan:"I already sent her the invitation."
Vikram:"Abhi/Pragya and Rhea/Rohan are coming tomorrow morning."

This made Prachi delightful and she realised that it was already one week since the last time she met them.

Pallavi:"Aryan will accompany you to the airport."
Ranbir:"i will also go. I took an off tomorrow."
Vikram:"that's even better. All three of you could go."
The trio nodded.
