Chapter 538 - Nosy cousins

A day passed by very quickly with Sony sleeping till late in the afternoon, ofcourse she had to listen to her mother's continuous nagging the previous night after Kunal left.

Her cousins woke her up and they bombarded her with a million or two questions about her fiancee the first thing in the morning and it irritated her.

They didn't believe her when she said it's Kunal, the same Kunal Rajput whom the entire nation knows. And when Mrs. Pratap Kaur nodded in support of her daughter confirming the news they looked at her with surprise and envy.

Sony regretted her decision of telling them about her man when they kept nagging her continuously asking her about Kunal and Abhi. They envied her so much when they came to know that she is also friends with Garima Sharma, Abhi and his girlfriend. They wanted to know and pry about celebraties personal life.

They didn't leave her even for a second and it is getting on her nerves. Kunal tried to video call her but she didn't dare to answer him with all those curious cousins buzzing around her like mosquitoes and cut him off.

She wanted to go to her college and meet her friends but she couldn't with all those relatives around. On the other hand Shriya is busy taking care of little Malhotra as Gowthami and the little prince returned home from the hospital.

Naveen and Brahmini went to the Kaurs' that evening to help them in making preparations and she is relived atlast. Sony thanked Naveen and he patted her head dotingly saying "Of course I have to do my job and fulfill my responsibilities as a brother afterall you and that idiot gave me this". He then showed them Rakhi that both girls tied a few days ago. Sony hugged him tightly and Pratap thanked him for the help.

Her uncle's and aunt's tried to explain the nasty things about the industry to her parents and how low people can stoop to get their works done there. They also warned them about the complex relations in rich families and advised them to think twice. But the Kaurs' believed in their daughter's choice and Kunal.

Next day Sony woke up and was brushing her teeth when she heard knocking on the door. She was irritated as she didn't get much sleep the day before because of her stupid cousins. When she opened the door she saw Shriya and Brahmini waiting outside the door and a smile appeared on her face.

Shriya commented with a sigh "You look like a monster with those dark circles under your eyes" and Brahmini agreed asked "How long has it's been since you last slept?" Sony didn't reply to that but said "Atlast I'm relieved. Yesterday was the toughest day of my life, I felt like I was at a different world surrounded by completly strange people."

Saying so she dragged them both inside and shut the door behind her. Shriya sat on the bed and said Kunal asked me to make sure that you look the prettiest today and I can say that it's going to take alot of effort to make it possible with your current state." Brahmini added "Now go wash up, the beautician will be here any time. I already spoke to aunty and she allowed us to take care of you. Now hurry".

Sony washed up and was drying her hair at that very moment the beautician arrived there. She started doing her work on Sony and the other two waited patiently. They started sorting out her clothes, jewels and other necessary things.

Sony's cousins barged in while Shriya was scolding her friend for not putting the mehandi the before day. The beautician said "Don't worry, I have a ready made design but I am afraid... it's not so ..... I mean it's a simple design" and they all heaved in relief.

They decided to put that mehandi just before boarding the car. Shriya felt awkward with all the stares she is getting and one teen girl asked her "Isn't that a Ayush Mukherjee dress?" They recognised the dresses that Shriya and Brahmini wore and "the friends nodded".

Another girl asked "You must be rich. Are you friends with my cousin?" Sony thought "What happens if they know she is the girlfriend of Abhi, The dream man of all the girls. They will be more envious but I can't hide that for long as those two like to flaunt there love everywhere and anytime."

Mrs. Kaur came in and shooed all her nieces and asked Brahmini "Beta can you feed that girl a little. I'm afraid she will not get to eat later with all those rituals and people around her."

The beautician did the hair for all three of them and even helped Mrs.Kaur with putting on some light makeup. It was almost time and Shriya got a call from her man and before she could say anything he said "You left even before I returned from my job".

She replied "Stupid, you went somewhere. I waited for you and you didn't come. Don't blame me. He apologized immediately "Sorry babe, I had to attend a meeting with an important person from the company" and she said "Okay".

He said "I called to remind you to look perfect today. I know it's your friend's big day, but I also want you to look perfect. Don't neglect yourself" and she nodded. He also said "Garima will come to the farm house directly".
