AUTHOR'S POV

Aditi was watering the plants in the garden while Prisha, Harsh and their cousins are sitting on bench of the garden having a random talk.

Rest of their cousins have also reached.

"Who's she?" Ajay one of the cousin asked not taking his eyes from Aditi who's fully focused on watering the plants.

"Servant!" Harsh said shaking his head with an evil smirk.

"Hey, she don't seems to be your type." Rita shrugged.

"But she's beautiful." Ajay said.

"Lemme try!" He said getting up and walking towards Aditi.

"Hey!!" Mita tried to stop him.

"Leave it." Harsh shrugged.

"Do you need something?" Aditi asked noticing Ajay approached her.

"It's a sin, if I didn't appreciate beauty." Ajay said.

Aditi stared at him completely puzzled.

"You look so beautiful." He said leaning towards her but she stepped back feeling uncomfortable.

He smirked.

"What's your name, beautiful?" He asked again.

She didn't reply but ran from there.

"Told ya, she isn't your type." Rita said when Ajay returned to his previous place.

"Let it be." He said.

********************************

"Are you going to do something about it?" Rishabh asked.

"About the engagement?" Akhil asked back to which Rishabh nodded.

"What you mean?" Akhil asked turning towards him.

Rishabh shook his head.

"Nothing," he muttered.

"Seems like she accepted everything." Akhil said sipping his drink.

Rishabh hummed.

"Where did you go in the noon?" Rishabh enquired.

"Don't ask! Seems like she only lives for shopping." Akhil said irritated.

"Are you talking about Riya?" Rishabh asked.

"Aur kon? UGH!" Akhil rolled his eyes.

They both were in the bar, having drinks. Just then Akhil's phone rang. It was from Prisha.

"I've to leave, my cousins are there." Akhil muttered getting up.

"So, I was the one who witnessed your first marriage and now I'm going to witness your engagement again. I've seen it before also." Rishabh scoffed.

"D!ckhead!" Akhil muttered and walked towards the parking lot.

He sat on the driver seat and started the engine. He was driving slowly.

He reached his Mansion. He entered inside the Mansion.

He hugged his cousins who excited hugged him as soon as he entered.

"How are you all?" He asked lovingly with a smile.

"Greattttttt!" Rita said extending the word.

Akhil chuckled.

"Where's your half?" He asked looking for Mita.

"Here!!" Mita who came from the kitchen with Aditi yelled and ran to him and hugged him.

"You've become very handsome now! Secret kya hai bhai?" She asked pulling back from the hug.

"Am I?" Akhil asked raising his one eyebrow.

She nodded.

He chuckled.

"Lemme get fresh." He said and moved towards his room not before glancing Aditi once.

She quickly averted her gaze.

He shook his head and made his way towards his room.

Mita is very different from all. She doesn't have any head weight. Not a spoilt brat but sweet and kind one.

She got mingled with Aditi quickly unlike everyone.

"You go and sit with them. Please don't do all this." Aditi said seeing Mita cutting vegetables.

"They all are boring so as their talk. I'm just giving you a company." Mita shrugged.

"Okay, sit here but please don't do anything. I'll do everything by myself." Aditi said.

"Please." Aditi said quickly when Mita was going to say further.

"UGH! Fine." Mita mumbled.

"Aditi, where's your parents?"

Aditi remembered everything suddenly. What has brought her here, everything flashed infront of her.

"Aditi," Mita called her softly.

"Eh? M-my p-parents?" She let out a dry chuckle.

She shook her head.

"I'm - o-orphan!" Aditi said with so much difficulty.

She have parents, a sibling and husband. But still she's orphan.

Nobody is her's. No one!!

"I'm sorry." Mita quickly apologised.

"Please don't be." Aditi said trying to smile.

"I totally forgot! They've asked me to get some drinks in the home theatre." Aditi said smacking her forehead.

"Chalo, I'll help you." Mita said.

"But-"

"I'll. Will. Help. You!" Mita said.

"Okay!" Aditi shrugged with a smile.

They took some soft drinks from the refrigerator and some snacks to the home theatre. Everyone was watching the movie. It was just started.

Akhil was checking his phone.

Aditi was holding the tray of drinks she moved towards the left side extending the drinks towards Akshay. Ajay who was sitting on the right side extended his leg making Aditi slip and the drinks exactly fell on Prisha.

Akhil looked up from his phone.

"I'm sorry.." Aditi quickly apologised.

"What sorry?" Prisha gritted her teeth and slapped her cheek.

"Clean it and get out." She spat and left.

Aditi bend down to take the broken glass from the floor while tears made their way from her eyes. Mita helped her.

She cleaned the floor and made her way towards the kitchen.

"It's Okay," Aditi said smiling a bit while looking at Mita.

"I feel sorry for you." Mita said.

"For what? Leave it." Aditi said wiping her own tears and smiled.
