Part 17
Khushi was still sleeping as she slept late. Buaji shouted from outside...
"Arrey...Payaliya, wake Sankadevi up."
Payal hit on Khushi's thigh.
"Khushi.... wake up.... It's 7'o clock."
"Jeeji five minutes....."
She pleaded in a sleepy voice.
"Khushi, today is our Mehandi ceremony.... You are still sleeping...?"
Khushi sat on the bed with a jolt.
"Whaaaaat!"
She looked here and there with messed up hair.
"Go and take bath..."
Payal hit her shoulder. Khushi rushed to the washroom, taking a towel while blabbering...
"Why did you let me sleep, Devi Maiya...? Amma and Buaji are working alone... without helping them I was sleeping... Buaji is going to scold me with numerous names...."
She closed the washroom door and Payal chuckled.
As Khushi predicted, she was scolded by Buaji.
"Arrey Sankadevi, in usual days, waking up earlier, you roam room to room unwantedly... but today, you were sleeping like as if you born to sleep...."
Khushi pouted at her. Arnav's DON'T THINK 0F ME didn't let her sleep last night. As she felt last, she couldn't wake up earlier.
She dialed Arnav's number immediately to fight with him. Arnav just came out of the washroom and took the mobile. He attended the call smilingly. Before he said anything,
"It's because of you...."
Arnav pulled the phone from his ear jerking.
"What because of me?"
"I was unable to sleep last night...."
"Why Khushi?" He asked smilingly as he guessed what could have happened.
"Didn't you say DON'T' THINK OF ME?"
"Haan.... I did..."
"That's why I didn't sleep."
"I didn't get it"
He said controlling his smile. What he expected would happen.
"I was thinking about what you said. Why did you say like that?"

"I said DON'T THINK OF ME. You did completely opposite to what I said. Then why do you scold me? You may scold only if you had followed my words. but you didn't... there is no logic of scolding me. Khushi"
"Isn't it....?" she bit her nail.
"It is..."
"Haan... Why do I scold you?"
"IT's you, who should answer the question."
Khushi pouted.
"Ok... tell me what did you think of me?"
"I was thinking about why you don't want me to think of you"
Arnav laughed.
"Why are you laughing?"
"you are such a funny bundle, Khushi... I knew you will do so..."
"Did you intentionally do that?"
"Yeah..."
"But why?"
"To know whether my guessing is right."
"This is too much... Go... I won't talk to you."
"Won't you?"
"No."
"Let's see."
He disconnected the call. Khushi dropped her jaw, looking at the phone.
.........
Mehandi was done. Brides wrote their Groom's name on their palms. Sangeet performed on the same evening. Khushi danced with her friends until Buaji started shouting to wind up the Sangeet ceremony. She got changed and fell on the bed totally exhausted.
Payal received a call and it was from Arnav.
"Have you done with Mehandi and Sangeet?" Arnav questioned.
"Jee Arnavji...we just finished," Payal replied.
"You guys will get your wedding sarees tomorrow."
"Ok Arnavji."
"NK will come with the haldi which is going to be applied to you."
"Ok Arnavji."
"Ok.. good night."
"Arnavji...."
"Yeah..."
"Don't you want to talk to Khushi?"
"She must be tired after danced in the Sangeet ceremony."
"She is tired but she could talk."
Payal was about to call Khushi,

"That's ok... let her rest."
He disconnected the call. At the same time, Khushi came out and saw Payal talking on the phone. She teased Payal, thinking that it was Akash who talked to Payal.
"I know it must be Jeejaji..."
Cutting her,
"No, it was your jeethji..."
"Whaaat!" she frowned.
"My would-be husband's elder brother."
"Elder brother...? (her mind sparkled.) Whaaat!!!! You mean Arnavji....?"
Payal nodded yes.
"Why didn't you give me the phone?"
"I was supposed to...but he said NO..."
"Really?"
"yeah... is everything all right between you two?"
"Actually I said, I won't talk to him in the morning..."
"Ohhh..."
Now Payal understood that why Arnav purposely called through the landline.
"How could he really be not talking to me?" Khushi pouted.
"I think he is really upset with you." Payal intentionally teased her.
Khushi called Arnav. he smiled at his phone, seeing her number.
"Hello, Arnavji..."
"Yeahhhh...."
"Why didn't you talk to me?"
"Me? When?"
"You called Jeeji and disconnected the call without talking to me."
"You only said that you won't talk to me...."
"I said I won't talk to you...that means it's me who should not talk to you. Why didn't YOU talk to me?"
"Khushi... don't you think this is too much?"
"I say don't talk to me often... doesn't mean you should be unspoken."
"Ohh...what rule is this?"
"Khushi's rule..."
"Your rules won't work after our marriage."
"Why?"
"After our marriage, you won't be without talking to me."
"Why?"
"Do you think I will let you stay silent?" he asked with a hidden meaning.
"Won't you?" She became excited.
"What do you think?"
"Let's see that later. Now, let me sleep. Good night."
She disconnected the call, without waiting for his reply. Arnav tapped his forehead by the phone nodding no.
Wedding Day
Arnav refused to wear a turban as he felt very uncomfortable. In fact, he wanted to be in his three-piece suit as usual. It was Anjali who insisted him to wear a traditional outfit. Without any choice he wore it.
Arnav and Akash were waiting for their respective bride. Arnav's breath ditched him when he saw Khushi who was breathtakingly beautiful. Arnav forgot to blink for a while. Khushi reached the stage and took place, next to Arnav.
Gupta sisters became Raizada bahus in the next few minutes and the panditji declared it officially. The NEW Raizada women entered into the RM with all respect by completing needed rituals.
Khushi and Payal were about to get inside RM, Nani stopped them.
"You guys should not walk in..."
Khushi and Payal looked at each other.
"Your husband should pick you in his arms."
Khushi and Payal's cheeks turned into RED.
Arnav picked Khushi and Akash picked Payal. They went to their respective room with their respective wives.
Arnav put Khushi on his bed and looked at Khushi who looked nervous.
"Will you say I won't talk to you now?" Khushi looked at Arnav who was smirking, lying beside her.
Khushi bit her lip.
"I won't mind if you say so... because it's not necessary to talk here."
He said looking at the flower decoration of his bed. Khushi tried to get up. Do you think Arnav would have allowed her to do it?
Hereafter, it's up to your imagination...
To be continued...

Once Human, Now A Parasite
Arthur, once a successful and rich businessman, was given a second chance in another world. He was tortured for months by men his wife hired and, now… he was offered a new beginning but it wasn't what he wished for.
8 959Cultivation System
Unknown to the people residing on Earth, in the void surrounding Earth and an unknown hidden world has began distorting, as if they were fusing. Nobody has noticed this, as it does not show up on any radars located around Earth. It is unknown if it was due to this distortion or not, but people randomly got something that refered to itself as a guide to help people for the change, though it came with a steep cost unknown to them at the start. Our MC is one of such people. Watch him start his adventure throughout a new place.
8 151Don't Come Inside, Okay?
Lars Cromwell just got dumped by his girlfriend of 3 months, apparently because she found someone better. Although the normal man would have been bummed out by this, Lars didn't particularly mind. Because Lars just won the lottery, which meant he was about a billion dollars richer now. And he had one less person to share it with! Even if he was single, at least he was filthy stinking rich! In any case, this is Lars' story. A story that begins just like how many others do. With his death. Join Lars as he reincarnates into another world as his Avatar together with his favorite game's Dungeon and it's NPCs! = This Work is on an indefinite Hiatus. I do not know when I'll get back to this, but I plan to rewrite a bunch of stuff when I do. If you liked this, keep following it so that I can inform you of when I improve this! = Hello, I'm Lire, and this is my 2nd fiction. I recently got into the whole dungeon thing, and thought that I wanted to write one of my own! Chapter Length: 2000+ Words. It can only be more, never less. Chapter Release Schedule: Whenever I can write. I am juggling this with my main Fiction, so yeah... Disclaimer: - Don't expect much statistical growth from the MC. Although I plan for him to refine his techniques and increase his repertoire. - You can guess from the name, but there will not be too much action in the dungeon itself. Plus, the dungeon has been fully built, so not too many things will be added either. The whole idea is to kill potential intruders before they enter the Dungeon. - This will be more like a Kingdom building story, than a Dungeon Building one. MC will try to dominate his surroundings so that he can keep his Dungeon safe. - There will be Slice of life elements, since realistically speaking, events aren't supposed to happen all the time. - This work is inspired, to a certain extent, by Murayama-sama's Overlord Light novel. Minus the 'emotionless' undead MC, and the premise of misunderstandings. The NPCs will also be aware that they were characters in a game, that came to life for some reason, so no need for MC to role-play to pull the wool over the eyes of his own allies. Also, unlike Overlord, there is a chance for the cast of characters to increase through a built-in gacha system(This is not a spoiler, this will literally be explained in the first few chapters.), except that the rates are absolutely abysmal, so it won't happen frequently. Maybe I'll use a poll to decide the next ally? We'll see.
8 124Twist of fate
A young man is born powerless in a world of mages and dragons, he struggles against his destiny and hopes that one day he will be powerful enough to control his own fate. However, what he didn't know was that a prophecy about a destroyer would appear, and he is the destroyer! Will he succumb to his instincts, or will he change the future? I do not own the cover, if the owner wants me to take it out, please contact me.
