Chapter 24 - 24. RITUALS (part2)

And finally the time came for vidaai. Meher was going out of the house,leaving all of her memories here while throwing the rice behind her.

(Vidaai- when girl is leaving her childhood home to go with her husband at the end of the wedding)

Thought the siblings fight a lot they love each other the most. And they both were not able to control their emotions and finally cried hugging Meher one last time as their sister in this house.

Lili tried to control but when Meher hugged her she teared up too. "Di....dont...your make up is already ruined now don't ruin it more otherwise jiju will be scared."lili said while sobbing making meher laugh and Rishab who was standing with her smiled too.

"Don't worry I won't."He stated and Meher looked up at him lovingly and Rishab hugged Shiyi as they had talked fine during the day and whispered something in shiyi's ear and he too whispered back something while both their wives looked at them and then shared a glance confused at what they are talking about.

Lili shrugged and Meher went towards the car and Rishab opened the door for her while she smiled but tears were still falling from her eyes. Rishab took all of the elders' blessing by touching their feet. Karan got in after her and Pallavi one last time kissed her forehead and caressed her cheek.

Karan and his other cousin brothers pushed the car and they drove off. Meher was still sobbing, Rishab looked at her and said" Meher??"But she didn't looked up.

"Baby?"At this meher blushed but didn't looked up.

"Mrs Rishab.?"He said lovingly and she looked up at him,her cheeks hot pink.

His heart clenched when he saw her red, puffy eyes. He stopped the car at the side, cupped her face and rubbed her tears away.

"Why are you crying huh??....You know that you can come here whenever you want."he said lovingly while looking into her eyes.

"I know that.."She replied meekly while looking down.

"Then why are you crying?"he got confused.

"You are a boy, you won't understand!!"She whispered still loking down.

"Look at me Meher.."He said lovingly and she obeyed.

"Now I don't want to see a single tear, don't cry okay.."He said before kissing on her forehead.

He started the car and took her right hand in his left while placing it on the gear.

She looked at their hands and then at him and he smirked while looking straight. She smiled and looked out of the window. While he was glancing at her then and now.

Back their Lili was sitting with Seher,Pallavi between them. "Mom, now i am going to Meher di's room... it's mine officially now!!"Seher's mouth was filled with chips.

"Either you eat first or talk!!"Lili slapped behind her head and pallavi laughed.

All were enjoying there small get together as more of the guests had already left,only there close one were there.

All talked and laughed till the clock hits 2am and pallavi made all of them retire back to their rooms even when no one wants.

Right now Lili was in the bathroom while shiyi was sitting on the study working on his laptop in his casuals with his round glasses sitting on his nose bridge. Lili came out drying her hair and went straight towards the bed.

"Shiyi.."She called without looking at him while setting the bed but when he didn't answered she looked up she screamed.

He was already standing close to her and that scared her and fell on the bed on her back. Shiyi chuckled and Lili got mad. She stood up and hit him on his chest twice before he held her hands.

Her expressions changed to normal as she looked at their hands and then at him. "Lili, i want to tell you something."his voice calm as he left her hands.

"Yeah..what it is?"and he continued.

"About that man who stole the important files from the server, i have to go back to settle up the company again as there are some complications..And we have to go tomorrow as there is also an important deal day after.."He ended.

"Okay lets go then, I will go and tell masi" she said understanding that it's an important matter now.

"Hmm."he hummed and she went out. She was about to go to pallavi's room when she saw her in the kitchen.

"Masi,what are you doing here?"She asked out of curiosity.

"I was here to take water.."She said while taking out the water bottle from the refrigerator.

"Ohh.."Then pallvi asked her.

"But what are you doing here?"

"I was looking for you.... actually we are going back tomorrow as shiyi has to go back to the company for an important deal day after tomorrow.."She explained.

"But atleast attend the reception!!"Pallavi said giving ber full attention.

"No masi, he have to rest also before attending the meeting so we have to go tomorrow morning.."She said and Pallavi replied "it's okay but I would felt happier if you attended the reception also.."Lili hugged her tightly.

"I'll miss you masiiii...."He uttered and Pallavi patted her back and said "Me too, now go and sleep you have to wake up early tomorrow!!"And Lili smiled and went back to her room.

"When are we going??"Lili asked shiyi who was setting his documents as they had done their packing because because their clothes were mostly in their suitcases.

"1pm.."He simply said and Lili laid down on the bed,her eyes examining his every move until shiyi looked at her and she quickly closed her eyes.

He noticed it and smirked and walked towards his side of the bed. Lili opened her one eye carefully and saw him laying on the bed at an appropriate distance.

He turned the light off and there was totally dark now. Lili tossed to the other side,her back facing him. He looked at her back. She didn't talked to him

*Dude she's mad, make her happy!!

But why?? And how??

*She's your wife...what you mean why??!! It's your duty to make her happy..!!*

Okay i got it...

He sighed and went into a deep slumber while looking at her.

...

Next day was a chaos as today was reception and all were going to the palace near Rishab's house as they decided to invite the people realated to business and all. And they booked a Large palace there.

Lili and Shiyi were getting ready to return back. "Why are you going now Lili, at least attend the reception!!"Seher whined. She was wearing a simple black silky dress as the theme was black.

"No we have to go back now,sorry, If it was not important, I would have definitely attended" lili said while munching on her breakfast.

...

"Lili let's go, It's time!!"shiyi said and they both greeted everyone before leaving in the car.

They had reached the airport and now were going towards the private plane. The plane took off immediately and Lili was looking outside the window. Her gaze fell on her arms and she saw the chuda which pallavi made her wear with Meher. She said that here all the newly married women wear it.

It was not as heavy as the one Meher wore. She looked at Shiyi who was still on his laptop and then at it. She sighed heavily and decided to sleep as it will take 5 hours to reach and it's 2pm now.

Shiyi looked at her and thought

*What are you gonna do to make her happy, she didn't talked to you from 24 hours!!!*

Ugghh I don't know what she likes..

*Then search, what are you doing??!!you dumb!!!...*

He immediately saved his work and searched on his laptop. There were so many options like

-take her on a date.

-give her gifts and what you think she use more or her fav flowers.

-give her chocolates...etc etc.

Hmm...how about flowers and chocolates?? I am sure she will not like the branded or expensive gifts.

*Nice but do you know which flower she like??*

Nope but i think I can give her lilies..

*Or lavender, she smells like them and her perfumes are also mostly of lavender.*

Ok then lavender it is!!

It was his first time to give her something like usual couple do. He knows there is nothing between them but atleast he can make her happy as his wife.

...

They had reached and were now in the car. He was at the driver's seat and her beside him. She was looking out the window and he was hella nervous about the gift. He had bought the bouquet and chocolates before she wakes up and placed them in the backside of the car without her knowing.

He looked and her and then at the road. his gaze fell on the rear mirror and there he saw four to five cars in black behind them. He first ignored it but when he saw the man sitting in the first car which was behind them. His eyes widened and he immediately sped up the car. Lili looked at him confused but when she saw his knuckles holding the steering wheel tightly that they had turned white she understood something is wrong.

_AUTHOR'S SPACE_

Stay tuned to know what happened next...
