Aayushman

I was changing my clothes when mom called me to tell that we would be getting our engagement done in the next week, when Kyra's grandparents were going to come. It was a very short interval left for the week to end and I was overwhelmed as well as happy. I went down to see Kyra sitting on the couch. She had not touched her food and was waiting for me. I nooded my head no and said, "You should have started baby." "How can I have it when my fiance is not here?", she said and smiled but it soon faded. She came and hugged me. Her tiny body was envoloped in my arms like it was the safest place ever and she looked at me with loving eyes and said, "We are getting engaged next week, as well as they are fixing our marriage date next week." I gave her a wide smile and nodded a yes. 

"I'm excited baby. Yesss finallyyyyy. I can't wait to get marriedddd.", I said while she just laughed. "Lets eats! By the way, I wanted to tell you something, kind of important. But first let''s have our food." I nodded and quickly had my food. I took both of our bowls to the kitchen and put them in the dishwasher. I came back when I Kyra was sitting there playing with her finger, something which I had observed she would do when she is nervous. She looked at me and said, "Well Aayu, next week my dada, dadi and nani are going to come over for the week. And we are going to to get engaged when they are here. However, my nani is not not so sceepting about things like staying the the same house before the marriage and she doesn't believe in love marriages and is hell bent on the arranged marriages and strict about every tradition. Like imagine, it took 2 years for my parents to convince them to get married. So I will have to go and stay there for a week. Not only that, but like she is also very restricting with respect to clothes and stuff. She doesn't allow us to wear anything in the house except for a saree when she is here from the time I turned 18."

I nodded her to continue, however she gulped and said, "And I'm not staying quiet this time. I am not going to hold back if she speaks crap about any of us. I'm frustrated already. My paternal grandparents are my comfort zones. They are very open minded and support me and everyone in everything. But my main motive is, I am going to need to shift back into my parents house till the time nani is here. I don't like dealing with her but I have too, but she is loving too. And plus we still have to shop for the engagement and stuff so I think it's better to go back at our places." I listened to her and said, "Heya, baby, don't feel guilty or something. I'm going to miss you, but you'll be coming to work right? And we can see each other like we are getting engaged and we still need to shop together. And remember, you are not alone, we all are on your side. Also for me it will be a nice view cause you look very beautiful, gorgeous and sexy in a saree.",  I winked at her which made her blush. She smiled and pecked my lips which made me giggle. 

"I wanted to ask, we will live with your parents after marriage right?" ,Kyra asked me curiously. "I was thinking about it.", I said while being confused. She did a little victory dance and said, "Thanks baby. Anyways, if you didn't I would have forced to make us stay with them. When I had gone to meet you mom for asking their permission to propose you, she told me she would love to see all of us staying in the same family while being happy. I had promised her we would stay with them." I laughed and told her that I would have gone with whatever her decision was. "Anyways, which movie you want to watch love?", she asked me. "YJHD?", i replied and she yelped a yes and put on the movie. We were half way through the movie when we I felt some weight on my shoulder and Kyra's head had dropped on my shoulder while she was sleeping. I smiled to myself and pulled her on me. I kept her head on my chest and pulled a blanket over us and slept. 

The next 4 days went on within a blink of the eye. It was the day that Kyra and I were going back to our own houses. The past two days we had spent shopping for the engagement and packing to go back to out homes. I was going to drop Kyra to her house and then go to my house. Kyra was busy getting ready when I was waiting for her to get back. She came back wearing a beautiful pink saree with embroidery work on it. Her matching jhumkas looked gorgeous with the simple choker which was matching with her juhmkas.  I smiled widely at her and she laughed after looking at me. I went near her and pulled her closer to me by he waist. I softly placed my lips on hers and pulled her into a loving kiss. The kiss was filled with love and with overwhelming emotions.

"You have taken my breath away Kyra." ,I said while getting lost into her eyes. She smiled and hugged me and said,"Aayu, take care of yourself, I'm going to miss you, but we have vc and mobiles and ofcourse we will meet in the office, If she allows me to come over. I love you and remember I'm just a call away if you need anything." I smiled back at her and said, "Kyra it's more important for you to manage your anger and take care of yourself. I'm too just a call away and don't hesitate to contact me if anything bothers you. Let's leave now baby." She nodded and helped me take our bags to my car. I drove down to her house and I took out her luggage from my car and helped her take it in. She rung the bell and Kiara opened the door. Everyone was sitting seriously in the room with a old lady sitting in the Centre with an angry expression. Kyra's eyes widened after seeing her and she held my hand took me to her. "namaste naniji.", she said and touched her followed by me touching her feet. 

she looked at the both of us and asked in a stern voice, "Where were you Kyra? With your bag and who is this boy besides you?" Kyra sighed softly and replied, "I was at my house. I am staying there for the past few months and I came here to stay after knowing you and dada dadi are going to come here for a week. He is my soon-to-be husband Aayushman Oberoi. The son of mom's best friend. He came with me so I could introduce him to you" I touched her feet , to which she nodded softly and looked back at Kyra and said, "Wow, so you mean to say you want to stay away from your parents now that you shifted from here?" Kyra calmly answered, "No, I moved out so that I could be independent and I too have my own life which I want to live." She ended her sentence a little harshly, which like a reflex action made me go near her and hold her hand to comfort her. She said that she would be back after keeping her bags in her room and asked me to follow her. 

We went in her room and she released a long sigh. I hugged her and said, "Take it easy love, it's only for a week." She nodded a yes and pecked my cheeks. I pecked her lips and we went out of the room to get down but someone came from behind us and yelped. We both flinched and screamed and heard someone laugh from behind us. We turned to look at who it was and found a man in his 70's looking at us while laughing. Kyra went and hugged him tightly while laughing. She pulled out of the hug and said, "Aayu, this is my dada and dad, this is Aayushman Oberoi." I kneeled down and touched his feet. He pat my back and pulled up and hugged me. I smiled at him and we all decided to head downstairs to meet her dadi. We went down to see her sitting in the lawn with Kiara, while talking. Kyra went and hugged her who hugged her back while laughing. "How is my munchkin?", she asked Kyra who told she was good. She pulled me besides her, in front of her dadi and introduced us to each other. 

We talked for a few times and it turned out they knew we were living together which they had accepted. We talked for a few minutes, but then her nani came to talk. We were talking when I got a call from Abhi calling me to the office. I went to Kyra who was in her bedroom changing. I knocked her room and asked, "Kyra, are you done? I wanted to tell you something." She opened the door and told me to get inside. She was in full length pajamas and wore a black hoodie, which oddly looked familiar to me. I squinted my eyes and asked her, "Is it perhaps my hoodie?" She nodded a yes and said, "Ummm yea, I will kinda miss you so I got one with me and it always looked so comfy, that I couldn't contain my urge to get it." I giggled and squished her cheeks and said, "You look very cute in them. You should wear my clothes more often. And you look hot in them." I winked while saying the last sentence. 

She laughed and hugged me tightly. I was playing with her hair when my phone rung again and it was Abhi calling me again. I quickly answered it while playing with her hair. I quickly kept it and said, "Well, I have to leave now. We have some guests coming over at our house too now. Let's meet on the day of the engagement? till the time we can vc. Love you Kaykay." I leaned in and kissed her softly. She held my cheeks with her sweater paws, which were cold. In about a minute I pulled out of the kiss and went out of the room and greeted everyone good bye before leaving.
