CHAPTER 3

716 Words
Wedding preparations were in full swing. Everyone was busy in teasing the bride and the bridegroom. Pooja was blushing after anyone took his name and everyone awed at her. On the other hand, Subhash was also blushing after the mention of his bride. After all, he loved her. He wanted to marry her as soon as possible. It was decided that the both sides will meet each other at the bride's house for deciding wedding dates. Pooja's family was waiting for the past one hour in their home, thinking that they may come any second. Slowly, her mother started to lose her patience. After two hours, they finally decided to stop waiting for them. No one knew what was going on. On the other hand, Priya was very upset. She wanted to switch on the TV but no one allowed her to do that. Now when she got the chance, she immediately switched on the TV. Instead of channel 151 where her daily soaps used to be telecasted, she pressed 155 out of mistake. It turned out to be a news channel. When she was about to change the channel, a scream left her mouth. "Mom, dad, di, come here fast. See what is broadcasted in the news," she shouted everyone to gain their attention. Everyone came out of their rooms, shocked to see that the news was showing how the building in which Subhash's parents owned a flat burned down three hours ago. Everything turned to ashes. Due to absence of a security guard and the secluded surroundings, no one noticed the fire that broke down there. Pooja was crying hysterically because they figured that this was the reason behind their absence, because they were no longer alive. They were dead. Pooja's world suddenly crashed down. They couldn't even talk about marriage and this happened. She was shattered... The next day, her friends visited her. Everyone expressed their hurt because of the incident. They knew that Pooja had started liking Subhash. They could clearly see that her eyes were red due to crying. Shiva, however, was very happy. Now, he could marry Pooja without any problem. He went towards her and slowly caressed her cheeks. A wave of electricity spread through her body which she had never felt before. She was completely bewitched with the handsome man in front of her. "Pooja, I know that you are hurt. Your relationship could never even start before it broke down. I know that this is not the right time to say, but I love you and I want to marry you. Will you marry me?" Pooja couldn't understand anything due to the shock of Subhash's death. She could just see Shiva's handsome face, his soft eyes and could only hear soft soothing words. She subconsciously nodded her head. Suddenly, Shiva kissed her lips passionately. Pooja was feeling so much pleasure that she was lost in euphoria. Suddenly, she heard someone clearing their throat. Hearing the noise, she broke the kiss and pushed him. It was Jenita. Jenita always thought of Subhash as her brother. Even she saw how easily Pooja moved on, she was a little hurt. But when Anjali advised her that Pooja needed this change, Jenita also approved their relationship. On the other hand, Shiva knew that Jenita was very important for Pooja. After getting her approval, he dragged Pooja towards Pooja's parents and presented the proposal. Pooja's mother once again agreed before thinking. Her dad asked him about his family to which he replied that he was an orphan. He only had a large company called S&S and his aunt was taking care of it until he was married. Upon further consideration, her father agreed to their marriage. After all, he is the heir of such a big company. The decision was rushed and as every rushed decision, the consequences would not be favourable for Pooja... On the other hand, Pooja was feeling embarrassed due to the kiss. She always thought that she will preserve her first kiss for her husband. But it was already stolen from her and she enjoyed every second of it. It only took one kiss for Pooja to move on. Although Jenita was a little upset, she was happy for her friend. After all, she loved her very much.
