"Mohabbatein" is a story that holds a special place in my heart. CEO Abhimanyu Khanna and designer Ananya Rajput are poles apart in their personalities and mindsets. However, destiny had its own plans and brought them together at a family function...
As soon as I touched the mattress, I fell asleep without realizing it and woke up at 2, shocked because I usually wake up between 6 and 7. Upon checking my phone, I saw Annaya's photo, which I must have opened while half-asleep.
Expecting a flood of messages and calls, I was surprised to find none, which was unusual as even a brief pause in checking my phone typically results in a barrage of messages.
However, there was a message from Shouraya explaining that Priyanka Bua had called and instructed everyone not to disturb me since I had slept at 7 in the morning. I chuckled, knowing Priyanka bua must have made threatened to him.
I promptly went to freshen up and, after 25 minutes, emerged in my formals. Descending the stairs, I found my entire family gathered at the table, which was customary for lunchtime.
"Dekho, bhai Aagya," Kriti said as she noticed me.

I greeted everyone and touched Dada Ji's feet, receiving his blessings. Then, I gave Kriti a side hug, and asked why you are smiling so much, and then I notice not only Kriti everyone was happy.
"We were waiting just for you. First, take a seat," Mom said, and I sat down. Then they shared that at yesterday's function, Mihir's family was also present. His parents mentioned marriage; they want Mihir and Kriti to wed, and my family agreed.
"But Mom, isn't this too sudden? Kriti is only 20, and I think we shouldn't rush into marriage."
"Yes, bacha, we thought about that too. But then we decided to discuss it with Kriti and tell them her decision. So, we asked her, and she's ready; she said yes," Chachi explained.
I looked at Kriti; she nodded with a smile. I smiled back and hugged her, not realizing when my eyes became moist.
"Bhai, are you crying?" Kriti asked as we ended the hug.

"Ah, why would I cry?" Abhimanyu said, looking away.
"Bhai, I love you," Kriti said, and seeing her eyes moist, he hugged her again, and both the brother and sister cried.
"I love you too, little one," Abhimanyu said, kissing her forehead.
"We're here too," Samarth said, joining with Lakshay, both feeling emotional.
"Come here," Abhimanyu said, and now they were all hugging in a group.
The others watched the brothers and sister duo with emotional eyes, knowing how much Kriti meant to her brothers.
After a few minutes, they ended the hug. "Me too, Aditya!" said, and everyone chuckled, and Abhimanyu lifted him in his arms.
"What's happening here?" Shouraya asked as he entered with Lakshay and Sahil.
