Love That Destroys — Chapter 19 beyond Surprise

Turvi's pov

I came back to my room and found my phone ringing. I saw the caller Id and it's Aashu.

I removed my phone from the charger and received his call.

"Hi Aashu." I said

"Do I know you?" he asked and I know he is angry because I didn't pick his calls

"Aashu please don't be angry I'm sorry. You know what happened? Mumma find a marriage proposal

" I told him to divert his brain.

"what? How? When? You didn't say yes right? You can't say yes to anyone else no you can't." He ranted in one breath

"Aashu calms down. It's not for me but for Stuti. Poor girl has to see the boy and tolerate this drama." I told him and heard him sighing

"Why is your mom dying to get her married? I mean come on you both only graduated." He said and I raised my brow

"so you mean we both should not get married right?" I asked him with a smirk

"No, when did I say that? We will get married and I will help you to fulfil your dreams." He said and I smiled

"I know you will." I said and we talked for some time more

I even told him that I have told mumma about us and he said he will come here with his brother this weekend only and I can't be more happy.

After saying good night I directly jumped on my bed and slept.

Next morning mumma literally threw me out of my room and asked me to help her in decorating home as the boy is coming with his family to see our Stuti.

Stuti is cooking delicious food for them. She even gave me some to taste.

I helped mumma and then she gave me a saree and asked to dress Stuti up.

I look at the saree and oh lord what is this? Mumma can be really over excited sometimes.

She has given this heavy saree with full sleeves blouse.

I facepalmed myself and searched in my almirah.

I have a lot of sarees and lehengas but I don't wear any of them much.

I found a multi coloured net saree with pink boat neck quarter net sleeves blouse.

I drag Stuti to my room and ask her to wear the saree.

Once she came wearing it I sat her down and did my work.

I don't want her to get married but I won't show her any less from any angle. My sister is perfect from every angle.

I did her make up and left her hair open.

Earrings and bangles that's it she is ready.

"Listen, you don't have to say yes to this marriage if you don't like the boy ok?" I asked her and she nodded

She hasn't talked much to anyone after the announcement my mumma did.

Soon we heard the bell ringing and Stuti stiffed beside me.

Stuti's pov

My body froze as the bell rang. My future husband is here.

Yes future husband because masi has already fixed everything and I don't think my no will change anything.

She is ranting about the boy only from morning showing how much she likes him.

My parents died when I was 5. From that time only masi and mausa ji (uncle) are my guardians. I have always listened to them and always said yes to whatever they told me to do.

They have raised me and I should be grateful to them.

I want to be a chef because it's my passion and dream. I love to cook very much but I don't know now if I can do it or not now.

"Stuti, nothing will happen, just relax." Turu said from beside

It's Easy for her to say because it's not her who's life and career is at stake.

No I am not jealous of her nor am I angry at her. Why would I be? I love her very much and It's not her fault as well but still right now everything looks irritating.

I took a deep breath and went into the kitchen.

There is a back space that has access to our kitchen.

I have to serve them tea when Masi will say.

Turu is also wearing today a lemon yellow ankle length sleeves frock with a thick chicken border in the bottom along with a lemon yellow net dupatta

because of masi who forced her to do so.

I can hear Turu talking loudly. But can't understand what she is saying.

Masi called me and I held a tray of tea with snacks.

I walked inside and kept my eyes low.

"see our Stuti also came." masi said

"go beta serve them tea," masi said and I nodded

I served his father first then mother and lastly I came to him.

I gave him tea without even looking at him and stood beside Turu.

I haven't looked at him yet.

"Stuti, did you see your groom?" she asked and I shook my head

"Then look at him, girl. I'm sure you will be surprised." she said and I dared to look at him and gasped

What the hell is he doing here?

It's the same man who saved us that day. Suryash Mehra.

I guess I was staring at him too long that he also looked at me and caught me staring at him.

He only smirked at me and looked away.

What the hell just happened.

"babe your groom just smirked at you. He caught you checking him out." Turu said

Why god why?

"I think Suryash and Stuti both should talk with each other alone." His mom proposed and I hold Turu's hand tightly

I don't want to go with him. I'm scared and nervous. Ahh! He even caught me checking him out.

"Ahh!" Turu whimper and I released her hand

I was literally squeezing her hand.

"Stuti beta take Suryash in your room." masi said and I nodded

He got up and gestured to me to go ahead. God save me.

"Stuti no need to be scared if he did something you just scream I will be nearby outside of your room ok. I will save you. Just don't freak out." Turu said and I nodded my head

I walked ahead of him following me.
