2. {Shy}

"Y-ye, ye kya kar rahe hai aap?" Advika spoke nervously. Ruhan got back after buckling the Seatbelt.

"I could've done that." She spoke after realising what his actual intention was.

"Krish's car already left. We can't get late. And you are too much of a slow motion." Ruhan spoke directly.

"Me? Slow motion?" She pointed her index finger at herself.

Ruhan nodded and started the car without giving her any second more to speak.

After 45 minutes, the car came in front of a huge mansion. He entered the driveway and parked the car in his spot. He saw Krish's car, concluding that they had arrived before them.

"Ma, Papa, and Krish have already arrived." Ruhan spoke.

Advika nodded. Ruhan got out of the car and walked to her side. He then forwarded his hand towards her after opening the door. Advika hesitated for a moment, then held his hand and got out of the car.

She saw he had parked the car a bit far away from the entrance of the mansion, and from the condition of her waist and legs in that lehenga, it is almost impossible to walk straight for her.

She started walking towards the door, her steps slow, but a shriek left her when she felt herself in the air.

"Ek baar keh deti aap chala nahi ja raha." Ruhan spoke as he carried her bridal style towards the mansion.

"H-hum chal sakte hai. Aap neeche utariye."

Ruhan shook his head and walked towards the threshold of the mansion where his mom, dad, and Krish were standing. Krish gave a teasing look to them.

Advika just wanted to dig a hole and diseapper right at that moment. "Oh hell nooo," She muttered under her breath and hid her face in his chest.

"Ma... I'm taking her in the guest room."

Navya and Akshay looked at each other in shock and then burst out laughing.

Advika looked at his face in shock, her mind only having one thing, 'He is mad'

Krish spoke to Ruhan, "She's you're wife bhai. Why will you take her to the guest room?"

"Ruhan, put her down. Let me do one last thing." Navya spoke, and Ruhan followed it without any objection.

Ha warna apne matashree se pit jaoge n 🤣

Advika adjusted her dress and stood straight while her legs were crying in those heels.

Navya performed the puja on her and Ruhan when they both were standing near the threshold of the mansion.

Navya, "Ok, now Advika. Remove those heels and softly kick this kalash and enter inside."

Advika followed her and was thanking her internally for getting rid of these sandals. Ruhan and Advika entered inside

Krish winked at Advika and turned towards Ruhan. "See bhai, Bhabhi looks tired, what if you do the same thing you did while entering the mansion."

"NO!!"

Her sudden scream left everyone shocked.

Akshay, "Kya hua bacche?"

Advika widened her eyes, realising what she did just now. Her embarrassment was skyrocketing.

"No.. nothing. Kuch Bhi toh nahi." Navya was enjoying this way too much.

"Toh tum chillayi kyu beta?" She continued.

Her face turned red. She looked around, not daring to meet anyone's gaze.

"Ok, let her be. Already, she looks like a tomato." Ruhan spoke and held her hand, walking towards the stairs.

She was following him like a lost puppy looking down. And to her embarrassment, she stumbled.

'Thank Lords he is holding my hand.' Her mind screamed. As she was just saved from falling and breaking her neck on the very first day.

"Sachme aap slow motion hai." He turned towards her and scooped her again, walking upstairs.

He kicked open the door of his bedroom and entered inside.

"Ye guest room hai?" She spoke while Ruhan freezed.

"Ye apko guest room kyu lag raha?" He spoke in a soft voice while placing her on the edge of the bed.

"Aapne kaha tha na neeche, you'll take me to the guest room." She spoke innocently while Ruhan had a hard time suppressing his smile.

"And my brother told something too, wo nahi suna Aapne?"

She nodded. "Oh yes."

Advika then stood up and walked towards the dressing table, starting to remove the veil.

Ruhan sat on the bed and was scrolling on his phone, but his whole attention was on her. He could see her reflection in the mirror clearly.

When finally able to remove the veil, she started removing pins from her bun. He heard her in the silence of the room as she muttered, "Why do they need so many pins... idiots."

He chuckled silently and keeping the phone aside. He walked towards her. "Main kuch help kar du?"

She was about to say something when his hand started removing the pins from her hairs. "Aapne pucha hi kyu?"

"Formality," He said flatly.

Within a few minutes, Ruhan removed all the pins from her hairs, after removing the one last pin, her hairs fell on her back like waterfall. Reaching till her lower back, her naturally straight hair didn't fail to mesmerise him.

She muttered a small "thank you" and turned back, removing her jewellery. The necklace, then the earrings. The heavy bangles were the next to get off her. The last thing she got rid of was her waistchain.

Ruhan got back to his phone, occasionally glancing at her.

"Aap bahar jaenge?"

He frowned. "Speak loudly Advika. I'm not a puppy who can hear you when you speak like an ant."

"I want to change. Please go out." She said a bit loudly, and he pointed towards the walk-in closet,

"Mom said your bags are inside, and also, there is a mirror in the closet. Change there. You can lock the door."

Advika nodded and walked towards the direction he pointed at, and truly, her bags were present there. She closed the door and started to change.

Here, Ruhan went in the balcony as he got a call. After coming back inside, he didn't find her. "Itna time lagta hai change karne me?"

He knocked on the door, but got no reply. "Hey Advika... mind telling what's taking you so long?"

He didn't get any reply. Without any further waiting he, walked towards the nightstand and opened one drawer getting the keys.

Again walking back towards the closet, he unlocked the door and upon seeing her, he laughed hard.

Her hands were tangled in the dupatta, and her face red with embarrassment seeing him laughing. "Oh God! Advikaaaa... what the hell!"

Controlling his laughter, he walked towards her and helped her out.

"Y-ye na, ye galti..." She looked around, not meeting his gaze.

"Advika.."

"Ji?"

"Aap itna sharmati kyu hai?"

"J-ji?"

"Kuch nahi ji." He looked at her amused. "Aur ye Jo aap har baat pe tamatar ban jaati hai, iska bhi reason bata dijiye"

He laughed and walked out after poking her cheek with his index finger, making her face turn an even deeper shade of red.

Once he had left, advika looked at herself in the mirror touching the same place he poked her. She muttered, "He sure is cute."

She grinned like a school girl who is happy after their crush talked to them. She quickly changed in random night dress, shorts and a top. She walked in the bathroom and washed her makeup and then walked in the bedroom, sighing deeply.
