The Engagement

Arnav went to his room and jumped out of joy for everything falling in place without any of his efforts and problems. He took his phone and called Vikram.

Arnav " Hey buddy, what's up ?"

Vikram " kya baath hei ? Someone is sounding excited "

Arnav " Yep..... Guess what ? My engagement got fixed in next Five days buddy "

Vikram " Wooooo......That's such a happy news. Don't worry we'll reach on engagement day "

Arnav " No you guys start tomorrow itself. We can roam around the village, Dhiya can relax a bit "

Vikram " Such reasons are not even needed. I would love to jump into your home right now. But Dhiya's due date is nearing na, Doctor asked her to come for a checkup after 3 days.

Arnav " Oh..... Ok then. I'll be expecting you guys on the engagement day morning itself"

Vikram " Ok baba..... I'll reach on time. Don't worry "

Arnav " How is Dhiya ? "

Vikram " Pooch math Yaar..... When you were here, atleast I had a company but now..... Akele bugadh na padra hei.... I can't even imagine how her mood swings like that. She laughs in a minute and next minute she starts to cry. Iam just praying that my baby comes out soon "

Arnav laughed at his situation. Vikram " Don't laugh, when your wife gets pregnant you will come to know "

Arnav " will see " he said still laughing. Vikram " Laugh laugh, I will laugh at you when Kushi gets pregnant "

Arnav laughed more " Pls, today's quota is finished. Will talk tomorrow "

Vikram " Ok bye. Take care. We will reach soon "

Arnav " I'll wait for you both. Bye buddy " he cut the call smiling.

Engagement preparation has started in full swing at Shantivan. Arnav pretended unaffected while inside he was so happy seeing it. Shopping was done, decoration was done, only ceremony is left which is going to take place the next day.

Engagement day also arrived. Arnav was so irritated on not having Vikram and Dhiya beside him that he forgot to enjoy the engagement.

He called Vikram " bewakoof insaan, where the hell are you ? "

Vikram " No bad words infront of my baby Arnav "

Arnav " Shut up and say where are you ? "

Vikram " Iam just an hour away from your village. Don't worry we'll reach on time "

Arnav " What the hell man ? Engagement is going to start in next one and half hour and you will reach one hour after, wow super...... "

Vikram " Don't mock Arnav. Everything is happening because of Pappu only "

Dhiya whined " What did I do ?"

Vikram " She's stopping the car every now and then saying that she's uncomfortable sometimes, she wants to puke sometimes, she want to eat the other times"

Arnav " Ok..... Fine ( he took a deep breath ) come fast. Iam waiting "

Vikram " Don't worry Buddy. We'll reach " Dhiya twisted Vikram's ears making him shout " I'll hang the phone Arnie " he cut the call.

Arnav sat down on the sofa ' How can I forget that Dhiya is pregnant. I should've known it  she would have difficulty ' he sighed.

He waited for next one hour without fussing but felt nervous, for his Friends or for his engagement...... He couldn't say correctly. But alas he couldn't do anything.
