D's PoV
Ravi came to me! Me and my mom were sitting on the bed in the groom's room. He said "Hello! I know you must be cursing us right now! But trust me, my brother doesn’t really know what love is! The relationship that he had with Smirthi is not love! He thought it was love! And I can assure you that my brother has not crossed any limits with her."
Wow! What does that suppose to mean? No D, Don’t get distracted. Be strong in your refusal. No one can force you into this wedding.
when he saw me not telling anything he added "I wish I can call you 'anni' (way to call an elder brother's wife). I really like you so much".
I smiled at him. I already like this guy, he is friendly, he tries to soothe the hot situation, and he is nice to me!
My mom said "Let’s see, kanna. Has your brother come already?"
"Yes, aunty. Dad and bro are talking in the next room!"
I could literally feel my heart thumping in my throat. Why god Why? Why does it have to be me? My dad is calling our relatives to this hall. Already many of our relatives came. My palms are sweaty. Looks like the priest said there is another auspicious time in the morning for the wedding to happen. That is 9.45 to 10.30am.
My dad and 6ft uncle came in and asked me to go to the next room where his son is waiting to talk to me! Is this really happening?! I clutched my mom's hand! She patted my back and came with me to the doorstep of the room. I knocked on the door and pushed it open. My mom nodded her head and went to the room where my dad is. With a thundering heart and wobbly feet I entered the room.
There he is. 6ft tall, Silk shirt and dhoti, Clean cut hair, and Toned up muscles. I could see his arm and shoulder blades flex. (D stop drooling) He is manly from behind. With his posture I can say He is tense, just like me.
I cleared my throat. " Excu...." my words stuck in my throat!
HELL NO!He turned and took me in with his eyes. He was quiet for a minute and started talking.
"See I'm sorry, I, without any intentions though, put you in this position. I really don’t want this marriage to happen between us. I care least about my reputation or family's good will. This hasty wedding is sure going to be a failure. I will tell my dad that you said no, and you tell your dad that I said no. I'm sure they will drop this crazy idea."
With that he walked past me and left the room. He has this addicting scent, maybe from his perfume! D you are incredible, go tell your dad your decision. Mindy insisted!
I went to the room where they all are. I looked at my dad and 6ft uncle or should I say shekar uncle or Mama?
