20. Light Of Her Dreams

              "I STILL CAN'T believe Arpit Uncle got convinced so easily", Forum said from the back seat of the car.

The entire Shah family was on their way to Karjat to celebrate the 35th anniversary of Shweta and Manish.

"I agree with Forum", Rishabh said.

"C'mon guys, lets not talk about that now", Shreya said smiling.

"Shreya, are you sure your parents won't be able join us?", Forum asked.

"Yeah, I don't think they will come or send Saloni with us", Shreya said with a hint of sadness.

Aarav realised the sadness in her voice. In that moment, all he wanted to do was console her but he knew he couldn't do it right now so he interlaced his hands with hers and squeezed them letting her know he was there for her.

Shreya's heart melted at his small gesture and she gave him an assuring smile.

"What about Shaurya?", Samar inquired.

"He is in New York for some conference", Shreya said.

"Ohh when is he planning to get married?", Forum asked.

"Well, that you need to ask him", Shreya said chuckling.

"Why? Is he scared of marriage?", Samar asked.

"No, its just he's not ready for commitment", Shreya said.

"Any past issues?", Samar asked.

"Maybe. I don't know much", Shreya said.

It was true she had no idea about her twin's personal life. She had shut everyone out of her life because she was busy handling her own shit.

"Okay"

"So what are tonight's plans?", Aarav asked.

"Maybe create some romantic atmosphere?", Forum suggested.

"Like how we had done during Aarav's Sangeet?", Rishabh asked.

"Yeah a little dance and all", Forum said.

"Dance? What do you exactly mean by that?", Rishabh asked confused.

"You will know soon", Forum said smirking.

             "IT'S RAINING! LET'S get out and enjoy a little", Forum said as she got out of the car.

"Forum! You will watch cold!", Samar said getting out of the car to find his wife.

"I will check on the others", Rishabh said getting out of the car.

Aarav and Shreya were the only ones seated in the car. Shreya was scared to get out of the car and enjoy the rain after the Pune incident. Everyone was enjoying in the rain except for Sujata who had Yash in her arms so Aanchal and Neil could enjoy.

"Shrey, I know you love rain so why are you sitting inside the car?", Aarav asked.

"I... I don't want to go", Shreya stuttered.

"Are you scared because of the Pune incident?", Aarav asked.

Shreya looked at him surprised.

How could he always read my mind?, she thought.
