The next day came with a bang, all the girls decided to cook for everyone.
"Guys , today i and my girls are taking over the kitchen, so it's biriyani day" adya announced walking into the kitchen with aru and a scowling avni and a joyous thanvi.
Ahaan Akash Aaron Aarav with Chaithanya and Arjun were sitting on the living room doing God knows what .
The parents and sarini were discussing something very serious.
"Cook some extra girls" sarini said casually again going back to her serious discussion.
"Why ? Are we having anymore guests" aru was suspicious her Sarini amma was acting weird these days, that woman insisted all the three girls to join her on the travel to village and now even today morning she compelled both adya and her to go to temple and she even got them saree and some jewelleries.
What exactly is going on?.
Ofcourse adya had her doubts too but she is too happy to be bothered by it.
"Yes . My bestfriend's family is coming too" sarini answered her calculated eyes going towards both adya and aru.
" Mm.cool" it was adya who answered her with a smile.
Aru was still silent, but either way she went to kitchen to help the other girls.
It was almost lunch time when Sarini's bestfriend's family came .
Everyone interacted together and happily had the lunch and was sitting in the lawn when Sarini's bestfriend Gayathri casually and subtly changed the topic.
The main conversation for which she and her family was here for.
Gayathri was here for a bride hunt, she wanted a perfect bride for her grandson Sharan.
Through out their time in house Gayathri was thoroughly observing both adya and aru.
Aranya seemed a bit closed off and rude to her but on the other hand she loved adya .
Adya was constantly smiling and unusually interactive today.
Gayathri liked adya for her grandson and she was ready to propose the idea to Sarini.
Unknown to the storm she is going to create.
"Sarini let's talk the real stuff now,i really like adya for my sharan" the cousins were all shocked
Aru gave a knowing smirk to adya,
" This is exactly the reason why i behaved rude to that old woman" aru whispered to adya .aru knew something was up between the old ladies
The said sharan was looking at adya.
Sharan is a good man.he had taken over as a CEO of his father's company.
He is a perfect gentleman and a perfect son.
He was okay with the concept of arranged marriage so here he is.
He liked adya. The very little time that he had known her was good and if given chance he would love to get to know her more.
Adya seemed a good woman to him, and he thought they could make a decent couple.
While Sharan was looking at adya, Ahaan tried very much not to punch his face and drag him out of here.
Akash was a silent spectator, but he was ready to stop ahaan if he try to pull a stunt.
Aarav was having a neutral face, shocked but neutral face.
Aaron was not ready for this, marriage and adya, oh hell no.
He is not ready to let his sister go away from him, he still have a lot more pranks to pull on her , a lot bickering and what not.
Chaithanya and Arjun, don't know what to feel both are technically not family so they feel like they are intruding.
Thanvi and avni who were near kitchen suddenly came and stand near adya.
The star of the conversation adya was numb.she unknowingly held the trishul hanging around her neck , the gesture was so subtle that no one could notice the trishul which was hidden behind her saree pallu
"I personally don't think that Sharan have enough dare to replace ahaan's trishul with a thaali on your neck.
Oh , by the way congrats . You got The Trishul "
aru with a sly smirk whispered to adya.
Adya does not have any idea how aru know about it but now is not the time to ponder over it.adya was about to voice her rejection when ahaan beat her to it.
"Fuck no. No way in hell adya would marry him, stop this conversation here itself, it will be better for everyone " ahaan roared.
Adya was his ; there is no more conservations about it.
"Ahaan, behave properly this is not a way to talk to your elders"sarini tried glaring at ahaan but all she got back was a equal death glare from ahaan.
"I don't know why you want to talk in this matter ahaan, i want adya to marry my grandson, no one is asking your opinion,and you are no one to say on adya's matter" Gayathri voiced out,
Oh hell no.now that was a mistake.
Aru was enjoying it,she wish she had her favourite caramel flavoured popcorn to watch this drama unfolding in front of her
Akash knew ahaan would be more pissed hearing Gayathri, he was in a alert mode ready to stop ahaan , if he dared to do anything.
" I don't know who YOU are , with all due respect I do not want to know too.
But I have every fucking right to stop this nonsense marriage proposal "
Ahaan seemed ready to throw the Sharan guy and his family out.
Through out all these conversations Sharan stayed calm, he want to know why this ahaan guy is making a big deal out of it . He want to know the outcome of it.
"Ahaan stay out of it , i know you and adya bicker all the time and every time you both meet there is a fight assured.
But now you are taking it too far, now you are playing with adya's life.
You have no right to speak for her and stop her marriage proposal"
Maya , Ahaan's mother have had enough of it.
Maya cannot pinpoint why her son was behaving irrationally.
Ashok Varma, ahaan's father knows better not to involve in it.He surely knows something is there to which ahaan is stopping this.And he personally wants to know it too, so he won't bother stopping his son and try to get the maximum out of this drama.Oh how much he enjoy family drama
"I have a say on this matter until MY TRISHUL stays hanging around her neck."
Ahaan replied emphasising on 'my trishul '.
Everyone,who knows about the trishul was shocked.well everyone except aru.
Adya took the trishul out of her pallu and now the entire family can see ahaan's trishul hanging proudly on her neck.It was not like adya was hiding it, infact she was more proud in showing off it.she felt like she achieved her biggest goal.
Ashok Varma had a knowing smirk,
Maya Murthy Varma was utterly shocked among with all other family members.
Aaron and Aarav was numb.
Akash was so fucking calm that no one can read his expressions.
Aru was again smirking.
Arjun have no idea what that trishul even means, he was unbothered.
Chaithanya felt betrayed, his best friend didn't even give him a chance to touch it and now adya was wearing it.
He felt so betrayed.
Avni and thanvi needed answers, they were both looking at adya, asking ahaan would be like inviting death , so adya seemed a better option to them.
"Stop all this every one. It's about me and my decision is a 'No'. Gayathri grandma, i have no interest in marrying your grandson , heck, if I knew you were here for this matter i wouldn't have stayed here to avoid this conversation"
"But why adya, isn't my grandson good enough for you " Gayathri was not leaving it.
" Stop it grandmother, she said she is not interested, no need to pressurize her more, she made her statement clear" ahaan was glad to hear sharan speaking.
But clearly Gayathri was not.She wanted adya as her grand daughter in law, and after all this drama she had made up her mind to not stop until sarini agrees for this proposal.
" You do not interfere sharan , we elders will talk it out" Gayathri's words irks all the youngsters including sharan
" What do you mean by not to interfere, you are talking about their marriage, ofcourse they will interfere"
aru said looking directly at Gayathri.
" It's not you who I am talking to kid, and adya why are you saying no to it, do you have anyone else in your life "
aru was ready to retort back but adya stopped her holding her hands.
" I am not answerable to you Gayathri grandma,
And you may not know what this trishul symbolise,but everyone else here knows it and that's exactly why they are keeping quiet.
Again, i am not interested in this proposal and i suggest you leave before creating more drama"
adya said all the while holding the trishul in her fingers and a pointed stare towards Gayathri.
Adya was stern, she made her statement clear.If the old woman didn't get the point and keeps irritating her, then god help her Gayathri will see Adya Murthy's real face.A face which Gayathri for sure will not like.
" What is this about the trishul, it's just a good for nothing trishul , what is so important about it" Gayathri said
" Gayathri stop it. Adya said she is not interested which means this matter ends here and don't go talking about the trishul like that, the consequences may not be something you will like" sarini said the last line looking clearly at ahaan and assessing him.
She knew if she didn't stop her bestfriend then she will have both Adya and Ahaan coming at her
An angry adya was a rare sight, adya's anger comes in many stages first calm , then her stone cold voice, then her death glare and last comes the storm which causes destruction, which is not good for anyones health and status, adya could totally destroy you and there is history to prove it.
And now Adya and Ahaan's anger combined ,it's a force to be reckoned with
" Fine then , we are leaving. Sarini the friendship between us ends here "Gayathri said leaving the place.
Sarini didn't bother stopping her bestfriend, her grandkids matters to her the most and she would never go against adya's wish, it's her life after all.
"Ahaan and adya, this didn't stop here and i need to know how that trishul ended up on your neck, adya.
Ahaan we need to have a talk. We need to speak about this tomorrow i am giving you space till then.
And i assure you guys nobody else would bring up the topic too." It was adya's father,Dev who said it.
Both ahaan and adya know the seriousness and ahaan do think his uncle have the right to ask for the explanation from them.He was adya's father after all.
Everyone dispersed from the lawn and ahaan went out of the house to the pond side needing to calm his mind.
Akash followed him.
" Do you want to question me more akash?" Ahaan asked finally acknowledging his presence.
" Your trishul around her neck is the answer to all my questions ahaan"
Akash stated calmly.
And that is the most everyone hated and adored about Akash , he was too calm for everyone's liking, no one would know what that man is thinking, he could be planning someone's death and he would still look calm.
No one talked about the drama that day, everyone was waiting for the next day to come.
Ahaan and adya will have a long day tomorrow.
Questions will be asked and answers should be given.
A question and answer section which label their relation.
