Arooshi Malhotra
*hooking the ends of her neckpiece*
Daksh Singhania
*helps her hook it*
Arooshi Malhotra
*nervously gulps*
Arooshi Malhotra

Daksh Singhania
*buckles the neckpiece and backsoff with hands raised in the air* okay okay mrs. daksh singhania!! just a few more days to go *winks*
Arooshi Malhotra
*blushes*
Arooshi Malhotra

he smirks and turns around to leave, just as he was about to walk out of the room they hear a knock
Arooshi Malhotra

Armaan Singhania

Armaan Singhania
*opens the door and enters with harish and ruhi*
Armaan Singhania

Armaan Singhania

Daksh Singhania
what is the matter?
Harish Mehra
let me speak armaan
Harish Mehra
dear arooshi, there's no pressure. think and about it and tell me what your decision is
Arooshi Malhotra
what decision?
Harish Mehra
armaan has already talked to your uncle and he has no obligations and has agreed but i want to know your opinion
Arooshi Malhotra
(opinion?) sure mr. mehra
Arooshi Malhotra
what is it?
Harish Mehra
me and armaan are both businessmen and many of our partners and people from media and other relatives are here, whereas from your side it's only you present here
Harish Mehra
even ruhi is in business and it's important for all our reputation
Arooshi Malhotra
what is it mr mehra? please get to the point.
Harish Mehra
since aakansh is not here yet, we want daksh to get engaged with ruhi
her eyes widen in shock as she processes the information till she realises that this is how relationships in rich families work. she glances at daksh with pitiful eyes being helpless and powerless to take a decision for herself
Daksh Singhania
who said id agree! ill never marry ruhi
Daksh Singhania
i love arooshi
Armaan Singhania
love? it's been 4 days since y'all met each other and you already love her?
Arooshi Malhotra
uncle already agreed?
Daksh Singhania
arooshi! don't you dare agree
Arooshi Malhotra
*looks at harish and armaan with no visible expressions* as you say mr. singhania and mr. mehra *blinks off her tears and looks away* excuse me..
she says as she walks out of her bridal room. she lets the tears stream out as she reaches a few steps away from the bridal room
Daksh Singhania
AROOSHI MALHOTRA!!!! *runs towards her*
Daksh Singhania
*grabs her harshly and makes her turn towards him*
Arooshi Malhotra
daksh! *winces in pain*
Daksh Singhania
DO YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY? IS IT A JOKE TO YOU?!
Arooshi Malhotra
why don't you ask your father and father in law?
Daksh Singhania
*grits his teeth as he tightens his grip on her wrist*
Arooshi Malhotra
you're hurting me *struggles to get her hand out of his grip*
Daksh Singhania
and what about me arooshi? *jerks her hand and holds her shoulders instead pulling her closer to himself* do you how much it's hurting me?
Arooshi Malhotra
then deny them, say no. why are you-
Daksh Singhania
I CAN'T!! I CAN'T RIGHT! THAT'S THE WHERE THE PROBLEM LIES *pushes her shoulders away and turns around while pulling his hair*
Arooshi Malhotra
*starts leaving*
Daksh Singhania
*holds her wrist*
Arooshi Malhotra
leave me alone daksh. you should go now *jerks his hand and leaves to the banquet hall*
Ruhi Mehra
*slides the ring in his ring finger*
Daksh Singhania
*staring at arooshi who's standing between the crowd*
Ruhi Mehra
daksh don't create a scene here *whispers*
Aakansh Singhania
what's happening ms. malhotra?
Arooshi Malhotra
I'll suggest you talk to your parents about this *about to leave*
Aakansh Singhania
*holds her arm* stop
Arooshi Malhotra
*turns around and looks into his eyes before looking at his handing holding her arms*
Aakansh Singhania
*takes his hand back* sorry.. let's talk somewhere else
Aakansh Singhania
mother! father! is the life of your kids just a joke to you? how can you do this to your own sons. forget about us, what was their fault? why are y'all ruining ruhi and arooshi's lives? *cold*
Armaan Singhania
you're speaking as if you weren't the reason this happened
Aakansh Singhania
i don't remember my opinion taken before deciding my engagement date so quit blaming me
Aakansh Singhania
i am gonna go out and tell the truth to everybody
Aratrika Singhania
and do you think the rituals, my beliefs are all a joke??? they're already engaged, there's nothing you can change now
Aratrika Singhania
if you wish, go ahead and do whatever you want and spoil the lives which are yet to be spoiled
Aakansh Singhania
*turns around to leave*
Aratrika Singhania
