Chapter 17 - Engagement party (1)

marigold hotel

The engagement party is starting in hour but the hotel is already full of guests the queen and king of the entertainment industry engagement is the talk of the town . The Luthras have booked this hotel for the engagement tonight and the theme is pink it was decided by the bride Koyal Thakur the girl who used to bully Durga in school . Right now in the hotel rooms Omkara is In deep thought he is conflicted right now he does he obey his mother's wishes and marry Koyal or should he follow his heart and wait for the love of his life like he promised her would . there is not a single day where he doesn't yearn to see her again every night when he goes to sleep all he sees is her and nothing else knowing all this how can he get married to someone else "you are thinking about her ain't you ?" a man seating on the bed says "how do you know Yuvraj?"Omkara asks is it that obvious when he thinking about her " Dear brother we shared a womb for 9 months if there is anyone who knows you better than you know yourself then that person is me and I know that Durga is where your happiness lies after she disappeared I haven't seen you smile from genuine happiness your acting skills are nothing to me as I can see through you imagine when you actually get married to Koyal I am going to have a Zombie for a twin brother" Yuvraj says " What do you suggest I do Yuvi " Omkara says seeking guidance from his fraternal twin brother "I going to tell you to follow your heart Om because it will never lie to you" Yuvraj says to his brother "just like how you followed your heart when you eloped with Mohana on her wedding day to marry her at the temple " Omkara says "yes something like that but what I am going to tell you is that if it means waiting for her your entire life you will do it rather than playing with another girl's heart " Yuvraj says

'' It's easier said than done when you Mohini Singh Luthra as your mother " Omkara says " But is being a filial son more important than your actual happiness do you think I want zombie for brother " Yuvraj says then the room went silent then they heard a knock on the door "come in " Omkara says buttoning up the last part of his kameez then his mother walked into the room " why is it so serious in here "Mohini asks worriedly Omkara and Yuvraj are always extremely Goofy and childish around eachother presence but the atmosphere in the room is so tense " my son looks so handsome today may no evil eye be casted apon you today" Mohini was so cheerful today it's her son's engagement tonight and it was to the girl of her choice "get ready quickly the engagement party is about to begin in 9 minutes " " ok mom " Seeing how obedient Omkara is being the joyful Mohini then left the room

Only after their mother left the room did he see a frown on Yuvraj's face " did you even hear anything I said to you just now Om " " Yes I did hear you Yuvi it's just couldn't bring myself to disappoint mom you saw how happy she was just now " shaking his head disapprovingly Yuvraj just left the room to let Omkara be it's clear that he chose another person's happiness over his own ~

meanwhile Omkara was sulking in the other room Koyal was celebrating with her older sister ,Jaya ,Juhi and her other friends drinking some champagne "cheers guys to my engagement it is finally happening I am one step further to becoming Mrs Luthra " Koyal says making a toast to her self ''cheers " the girls in here say in unison "But what will you do when Durga returns and take Om away from you "Jaya says "that will never happen how can you compare Koyal to that white haired fatso" Juhi sneered "Do you think she will come back oh come on Jaya it has been six years years even if she comes back do you think That Mohini Singh Luthra will allow her favourite son to marry a girl like her " Koyal says looking at her self in the mirror she was right Mohini would never allow Durga and Omkara reunite

Then the was a slight knock on the door it was Tulsi " Jaya, Juhi Aunt Dilraj is calling you two " Tulsi was a bit upset about what she heard from the door so she left immediately after conveying the massage " mother in law is calling us let's go Jaya " Juhi says dragging Jaya along with her little did they all know that a blast from the past is coming back into their lives ~
