*Khushal Pov*
“Don’t sulk like that Khushal! This is not even a bikini.” She said holding my hand.
“But everyone is looking at you.” I said frowning.
“I am wearing shirt and leggings for a reason idiot. No one is looking at me.” She said rolling her eyes.
“You are beautiful so ofcourse everyone will look at you.” I said rolling my eyes.
“When I have a bodyguard like you then who has the dare to even do that.” She said smirking.
“I requested you to wear something else. This color looks so good on you. But you didn’t listen to my single word.” I said shaking my head.
“That’s it!” She said and walked away.
I shrugged and sat on the sand looking around. Then I suddenly heard too familiar laugh and turned to see her laughing with some guy.
“What are you doing?” I asked walking near her placing a hand around her waist.
“He is asking me some question and I am replying.” She replied and turned towards the guy.
“What was he asking?” I asked her turning her around completely so that she will only look at me.
“Whether we both are couple or not?” She replied and I frowned.
“What is there in laughing at that question?” I asked still frowning.
“He is disappointed to know that you are not single.” She whispered.
“I am sorry but I am hers.” I said looking at the guy and he smiled walking away.
“Now you actually laughed like that to get me jealous right?” I asked her and she nodded grinning.
I immediately lifted her up and walked towards the water ignoring her shrieks. I threw her and she immediately pulled me with her making me fall along with her.
We both surfaced and laughed at each other. I felt so good laughing so carelessly and I want to be like this always.
She suddenly stopped laughing and walked towards me. I held her hand so that she will not fall due to sand.
We both are standing so near with only water around us until our necks and staring at each other.
Placing her hand on my cheek she whispered “When you laughed, your eyes just glowed.”
“Do you like it?” I asked pulling her completely near me.
“Yes! And I want to see it everyday whenever I look at you.” She replied smiling.
“Just stay with me everyday and you will be able to see it.” I whispered in her ear.
“I don’t want to be anywhere else.” She whispered back placing her lips on mine.
“Public place right?” I asked her teasingly.
“Who cares!” She replied and I crashed my lips to her.
“I will go and freshen up.” She said walking towards the cupboard where her clothes are there.
I walked behind her and trapped her to it pressing her. She glanced back and asked “What happened?”
“Nothing!” I replied kissing on her neck and started pestering them along her shoulder.
“Khushal!” She whispered tilting her neck.
“I was not lying. You are looking really good in this dress.” I whispered and she turned around in my arms.
“We have to leave tomorrow right?” She asked while I continued to peck all over face and neck.
“Yes! I know you can’t extend your leave.” I replied.
“I love you!” She said holding my face.
“I love you too.” I said smiling.
“I trust you.” She said in serious tone and I frowned at her.
“Give me another beautiful memory here.” She said and my eyes widened.
“No Akhila! I don’t want to pressure you.” I said shaking my head.
“I know! That’s why I am pressuring you.” She said kissing my cheek.
“Your family trusts me.” I said trying to pull back the temptation.
“And I trust you.” She said and I just lifted her up in my arms.
“You are really sure?” I asked her placing on the bed.
“No! I was just joking.” She replied and I stared at her.
“Ofcourse I am sure.” She said opening her arms and I just didn’t let anything back me away.
*Akhila Pov*
“So enjoyed the trip?” I heard someone asking and turned to see Mom and Dad sitting on the couch.
I placed my bags down and walked towards them smiling. I hugged them tightly and asked “When did you guys arrive?”
“From past few days we are living here.” Mom replied and I nodded.
“Where is everyone?” I asked looking around.
“Everyone is sleeping.” She replied and I smiled at her.
“Oh! Did you guys have breakfast? Shall I make some?” I asked them.
“I already prepared and we both even had it. Now tell us about your vacation.” Mom replied dragging me.
“I went with Khushal Mom.” I said honestly.
“We know!” Dad said and I frowned at him.
“You guys know about him?” I asked shocked.
“Yes! Now tell me.” Mom said smiling.
“I will tell everyone at a time Mom. I will go and freshen up.” I said smiling and she nodded reluctantly.
When I walked inside my washroom, I removed the scarf I tied around my neck covering my shoulders and neck. I so wanted to scold him again for giving me these many hickeys.
I will scold him again today calling him. I thought shaking my head and freshened up a little.
I covered myself again like before and walked downstairs to see everyone at the dining table.
“So how was your honeymoon?” Ri asked smirking.
“They will listen.” I replied shushing her.
“Now tell me how your vacation was.” Mom asked again.
“He won and we roamed a little. And the scenery of whole Greece from the balcony is amazing.” I said opening the picture I clicked in my mobile.
“It is so amazing.” Mom said and everyone nodded looking at it.
“And he proposed me there.” I said and everyone sat in silence for few minutes looking at me.
“You said yes right?” Priya Di asked and I nodded at her to which everyone sighed in relief making me roll my eyes.
“We should talk to his parents though.” Dad said and Mom nodded.
“Let’s go there in the evening.” Mom said and we all nodded.
“By the way one picture of you both is released in a site.” Ri whispered and I looked at her in shock.
“How?” I asked her.
“He has some fans Di so someone must have clicked the picture.” Kritika replied and I nodded at her.
“One year?” We all asked Dad looking at him in shock along with Princi.
“Yeah! We will get them married after one year.” Dad replied and Mom was also ok with it.
“Actually we are thinking about this month.” Princi said but Khushal still frowned.
“But one month is so less.” Dad said frowning.
“How about one week?” Khushal asked and we all stared at him in shock.
“We are fine with it.” Princi said smiling and I stopped myself from rolling my eyes.
I heard that from the time Khushal started staying here Princi is accepting whatever Khushal asks him. Actually he need not ask him, just by hearing his wish he accepts it.
“I think the time will be not enough for all the preparations.” Mom said hoping they will understand.
“Aunty we have so many friends and we all are also there right. Everything will happen perfectly.” Kalyan said smiling.
“He is trying to flatter Mom and Dad.” Ri whispered to herself.
“Yes Uncle we all are there. And it is my brother’s wedding so I will do everything to not give you guys any burden.” Sanjay said grinning.
“He actually took a step ahead in flattering them.” Kritika whispered and I stopped myself from laughing.
“First try to not get us extra work and that is more than enough for us.” Jiju said.
“Why is he trying to flatter them when he is already married to me?” Di asked whispered.
“The person who should flatter is actually standing there like some pillar.” I whispered back.
“Do you have any problem with one week date Akhila?” Mom asked.
I glanced at Khushal and surprised to see that he is pleading with his eyes. I shook my head smiling and the date was settled after one week.
“Now only two daughters will be remained to get married. I wish they wait for few more years.” Dad said.
“Why don’t we get the other two engaged now?” Sanjay’s Mom said and all our eyes widened.
“What?” Mom asked her confused.
“I just love to have Kritika as my daughter soon.” She replied and we just face palmed ourselves.
“Who is the other one?” Dad asked her.
“I met Kalyan’s Mom last week and she said Ri is perfect for Kalyan. And as they both already love each other she wanted to talk to you all soon.” She replied and Ri’s eyes widened.
“We can wait for some more time to talk about them.” Priya Di said.
“Why don’t we get them engaged? I know they still need to finish the studies but it will be good to see many celebrations at a time.” Princi said.
“So Kritika will also be coming to this house after marriage then.” Mom said suddenly smiling.
“We will do it after Akhila’s wedding then.” Dad said.
“But he didn’t propose me.” Kritika said whining.
“And I need to study so much.” Ri said.
“You guys can get married when you all want but we will have the engagement now so that you guys will be free of people talking’s.” Mom said and they nodded still frowning.
“Are you happy?” I asked him in whispering when all the elders started to talk between themselves.
“One week is too long right.” He replied and I hit him on his shoulder.
“Is that a hickey Khushal?” Ri asked and my eyes widened looking at myself and sighed in relief when everything is covered properly.
Then what is she talking about? I thought looking at the way she is looking and turned to see a big one on his chest.
“Button your shirt properly.” I said buttoning it.
“I want to flaunt it. I don’t have a problem with it like you.” He said smirking.
“Oh so it was honeymoon.” Ri said grinning.
“Shh.. don’t talk loudly.” I said glaring at her.
“Is this the same reason why you are tying that scarf around you?” Di asked grinning.
“Di! Please leave the topic.” I replied begging her.
“Let us see them.” Di said trying to remove the scarf and I stopped her pleading her more as our parents are sitting just few steps away.
“No! You teased us so much so now it is our time.” Kritika said and I hid my face on his shoulder.
He laughed holding me and I tried to hide my face even more. God! What devil sisters do I have?
