Next morning,
"Riyaz... Son do one thing, select the design of the wedding cards and place the order of it. And there is some more work too, finish it on the way itself..." Sid's dad says too Riyaz.
" What... Dad me, please tell this work to bhai... and Sid bhai's choice is better than mine... I'll help you all at home..." Riyaz pleases to his dad, as he wants to spend time with Avneet.
"Okay fine... Sid, son you go and here is the list of words... Do this too..." Sid's dad says while giving him the list.
"Okay dad... I'll do it..." Sid replies, while taking the list from his dad.
"Siddharth stop, Do one thing take Avu with you... She'll help you..." Sid's mom says.
"No mom... It's okay..." Sid says but Avu's mom cuts him between.
"It's not okay son, there is lot of work and time is very less and it will be finished soon together... Avu, dear go with Sid" Avu's mom says.
"Okay mom/aunty..." They both says at same time and were about to leave when Riyaz says.
" Dad... I think I should only go... Bro will help you all here..." Riyaz says nervously while others looks at him confusingly.
"What happened to you suddenly...?? Just now you were denying to go then...??" Sid's dad asks him suspiciously.
"That time I don't have any idea that you're sending Avneet too..." Aiden mutters under his breath.
"What you said...??" His dad asks him while shakes his head.
"N... Nothing dad..." Riyaz say's while stammering.
"So now close your mouth and help us in home... Sid and Avu will handle outside's work... Kid's you both go..." Sid's dad says while Sid and Avu nods and left from there leaving Riyaz upset.
••••••••••
In car, Siddharth and Avneet, both were thinking how to start a conversation, they were hell confused that what they can say. Sid was getting irritated with the silence and to broke the silence he speaks without thinking anything.
"Umm... Why are you so silent..." Sid ask broking the silence while Avu looks at him confusingly. "I mean, I think you're feeling uncomfortable..." He says while Avu shakes her head.
"No... It's nothing like that..." Avneet says simply while looking infront while Sid nods.
And with some small, random chit chatting they reach and started selecting the cards design and colour.
"How's this...??" Sid asks Avu while showing her a card.
"Umm... No..." Avu nods in no.
"This one..." He says while showing her another card while she again nods in no.
"Please show some modern, different and unique designs of cards..." Avu says to shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper nodded in yes and after lots of rejecting, Sid and Avu finally choose one design for cards. Sid gives the printing matter to the shopkeeper and they leaves from there.
"This is done..." Sid say's and sighs.
"Now..?? Avu asks him.
" Now we have to buy some things..." Sid tells her and they both leaves from there.
They buy all the things, while Sid stealing glances of Avu and Avu by seeing Sid making cute faces on somethings, on which he gets confused.
"Can I ask you something..." Sid says while they both moves towards car with all the shopping bags.
"Yeah... Ask..." Avu says while checking that they bought all the things or not.
"How did you know so much about the things, that mom had asks us to bring...?? " Sid asks while Avu looks at him.
"Actually... when there was a wedding at my granny's house, that time I had gone to shopping with my mom and aunt (mother's sister). That time I had seen them buying all this, so they had explained me about it..." Avu says while Sid nod's.
" That's why aunty had send you with me, so that any mistake doesn't happen..." Sid says while keeping all the bags on the backseat of car.
Avu nodded and they both smile at each other, and Sid drove to Nigam Mansion.
•••••••••••••
In Nigam Mansion, all were busy and Riyaz's mood was off, while Anu was trying to talk to him, but everytime someone comes in between and tells her some work.
At night, Sid was standing near the window of his room, when he sees someone in the garden but he was not able to see the person properly because of darkness.
"Who is there in the garden at this time, is there any thief... No no Sid, what rubbish I'm thinking... How it can be a thief... It's impossible for anyone to come inside because of so tight security... Wait a minute... Why the hell I'm talking to myself...?? I should go down and check..." Sid says to himself and goes down.
Then he goes down in the garden and goes towards the person but because of darkness, the person gets collide with him and the person was none other than Avu, and she was going to shout when Sid keeps his one hand on her mouth and his other hand automatically hold her waist to prevent her from falling down.
They both were standing so close to each other that they can feel hot breath of one another on their faces. They were lost in each other while their heartbeats were increasing in every second, while an unknown Shiver ran down through their spines, and after sometime they realise the proximity between them and they gets separate from each other.
"You... You here... What are you doing here at this time...??" Sid asks while looking at her.
"Actually... I wasn't feeling sleepy so just thought to walk for sometime..." Avu says while Sid nods. "And you... " Avu ask him and than he tells her the whole matter that why he came down.
And after that they both start walking together.
"By the way... Can I ask you something...??" Sid asks while Avu nod's.
"Yupp..." Avu says.
"Can we become friends...??" Sid asks her.
" Friends...??" Avu asks at which Sid nod's and says.
" Yes... But, If you have any problem so it's okay..." Sid says politely.
" No it's not like that and I don't have any problem..." Avu says.
" So friends...??" Sid asks hesitantly while forwarding his hand.
"Surely..." Avu says while keeping her hand in his with a smile.
They both smile at each other and leaves eachother hands, and continue their walking.
"By the way.. isn't it strange..." Sid says while Avu looks at him confusingly, Sid continues. "That your sister is a huge fan of mine, she knows me so very well but you..." He says while Avu looks down.
"Actually... I don't like to watch movies much or we can say that I doesn't get time for all this..." Avu says while raising her face.
" I know about your profession and your specialism in it so it doesn't give you much time for all this... But lil bit...??" Sid say's and asks her.
" Yupp... When I get time, I mostly spent it with my family and in that too with Anu and in that time she mostly talks about her crush, means about you... And I had heard your name from her only..." Avu replies with a sweet smile.
"Seeing both of you, it feels that you both have a special type of bonding, right...??" Sid asks while Avu nod's.
" Yeah... Same as special as every siblings bonding is..." Avu says.
After that they both talk for sometime and then goes to their rooms and sleep.
To be continued.
