Shreyansh pov
We arrived at Mishra's home. The home was looking very calm and cosy. They have lots of money, they can even buy a mansion but they preferred a decent house not decorated with expensive antique but their love. That is the simplicity Mishra family holds.
We were welcomed by Meera aunty. "How are you Neelam and Ravindra ji?". "Ji bilkul theek par meera tum abhi bhi nahi badli, tab hi to pradeep ji aaj bhi aap pe fida hai" maa said making Meera aunty shy.
I and Ishaan took a step forward touching aunty's feet."khush raho beta , kite handsome ho gaye hain humare shreyansh aur ishaan" said aunty making me shy and ishan grin and here he goes with his extrovert personality."areeh aunty aap bhi kuch kam thode lag rahe ho,aapke samne to 30 saal ki actresses bhi fail hain, mere sath date pe chaloge."
He said with flirty tone being dramatic gesture by forwarding his hand and bending down. but instead of hand he earned a headshot "aauch kaun hain" he stood up rubbing his head there pradeep uncle was standing giving fake stern and angry look making Ishaan chuckle and we entered inside the home after touching uncle's feet.
All the elders were chatting ishaan being god of extrovert joined them as it is the most interesting topic in the universe and here I was sitting just looking at everyone's faces.
"Areh shreyansh beta tum bhi to kuch kaho aise chup kyun baithe ho." Pradeep uncle said making me go all nervous " umm aapke bacche kahan hai uncle" what a stupid question to ask . God why do I even have the ability to speak why can't I just disappear.
"Waah bhaiya kya bola hai waah waah waah waha taliyaaan" my stupid brother wishpered in my ears although it was the truth.
"Koi baat nahi beta humara Rishabh bhi introvert hai usse bhi jab jyada attention milti hai to ut patang batein bol deta hai" Meera aunty told while laughing. It somewhat made me little relieved that they instead of making me awkward they understood me and my nature.
"Saanvi kahan hai Meera?" Maa asked "Areeh vo aaj hi aai hai abhi room me aaram kar rahi hogi. Main khana lagati hoon shreyansh beta please usse bula lao." Meera aunty requested. " Where is the room aunty"I asked "upstairs second room from left."
I was very nervous as I don't have much history not much almost negligible history with girls except for business meetings ,I very rarely have conversation with girls. I more reason to be nervous was she was the girl I am going to marry if she agrees.
As I reached her room faint sound of song was coming, so respecting her privacy i knocked but no voice came, I guess she didn't heard I again knocked but she didn't heard. So I slowly opened the door."Alexa next song sorry sorry". She didn't notice me she was just enjoying herself like the world around her didn't existed. I understood oen thing at moment that we were poles apart. Insecurities started clouding my mind "will she accept me".
"Umm hii, who are you?" Came her voice making me come out of my thoughts. It tools my entire existence courage to answer her back so clearing my throat I spoke" hi I am shreyansh, shreyansh sardana."

"Sorry for entering your room without permission, i knocked i swear but you didn't heard and Meera aunty was calling you so I opened the gate I am so sorry." "Just relax shreyansh and calm down." I spoke as he was speaking so fast explaining himself so I don't get him wrong, he is cute.
"Let's go I am ready, and sorry for my weird dance performance earlier." I said erasing the awkward silence between us as I am very talkative i cannot stand being quite.
" Areeh it's completely fine and why are you sorry you were just being yourself and enjoying."
"Awww yaar he is such a cutie , he doesn't judge like mohalle wali aunty" I said in my subconscious mind "thankss" . And again those silence i suppose he is an introvert.
We reached upstairs where my brother was sitting with another boy who was around my age then I saw uncle and aunty. I went to touch their feet ."khush raho beta aao humare pass baitho."
I gave aunty a sweet smile .
Then mumma called me to arrange tables and we all sat to have our dinner. All were chatting and laughing when suddenly ishaan asked me in my ears "bha... I mean dii aap kisi ko pasand karte ho kya." "Aisa kyun pucha ishaan." I asked him being confused.
"Vo maine socha match se pehle fielding dekh loon," he murmured and I looked at him like he has grown two horns on his head. "Hein tum theek to ho kahi tumhe chappal ya thappad ki jarurat to nahi . Kya bakwas kar rhe ho" i wishpered yelled at him . " Ehe dii i am just joking ." He said in pasta's style making me laugh.

" Huhh ye meri didi se ita kyun chipak Raha hai aur aisi kya baat hai jo aise nahi ho sakti kaan me khi khi khi khi karna jaruri hai kya." I heard Rishabh murmuring to himself while glaring at ishaan.
Then we finished our dinner when Ishaan spoke " dinner ke baad ice cream ho jaye" and I slapped my forehead but then their came a excited voice " yeah I am on icecream ke liye to main ever ready hoon." Ohhh sorry she likes ice cream .
"Ok I will go and buy some for everyone" I said standing up. " Areeh beta tum akele kaise jaoge saanvi tu bhi jaa help kar dio shreyansh ki" spoke neelam aunty making me slightly red. " Ahhh why am I turning into tomato " .
Then I heard her voice" chaliye"
We sat in our car. I wanted to speak to her before my family drop the marriage bomb on her.
But how should I start the conversation." Hey shreyansh what do you do ?" She asked starting a Convo making me relieve. "Umm I am ceo of our family business, you don't know me I thought I was kind of famous." I said in low tone "Woow khud ki tareef khud hi kya impression banaya hai Maine."
" Ohh nice yaar it also needs great talent and hardwork to manage company. And I was not very active on social media dur to my studies so I didn't knew. She said looking at me." No no it's fine I spoke a little much I guess .... Umm what are you doing."
"I completed my studies right now I am training in government hospitals , i got transferred here so will join from day after tomorrow.".she explained "nice." And here we go again .
I stopped car in front of icecream parlour. As we went inside she ran towards the counter like a excited child making me smile. "Which flavour you like shreyansh?" She asked turning towards me with a big smile.
"Anything will go for me." She looked at me with done face "Oho atleast choose some you are young handsome man not some budhau uncle. Even uncle's got taste now a days." She said making me think " ok I will take whatever you will order."
We sat eating ice cream as she said she can quietly have double treat. "You know shreyansh, you are so cute." She blurted then realised what she said giving me shipish smile making me chuckle "thanks now eat."
"Are you an introvert??" She asked "hmm I prefer listening ratehe than speaking I an introvert and people don't like it in men but I get shy . I have shy personality." I said then realised I am comfortable with her and I think I am over saying the things.
" Don't think that way yaar these societies standards. I think shy boys are best and cute too." She said making me go red.
" Saanvi I want to talk to you about something." I said seriously "say, I am listening." She said focusing on eating ice cream.
" My family didn't just came to meet you all, we have to do some important discussion an it's about you so I wanted to tell you first myself."
She finished her icecream then keeping the bowl aside she said" I am all ears." " Do you like someone I mean romanticly?." I asked hesitantly.
" You are also asking same question as ishaan , no do you think someone will like me with this childish personality. I don't have anyone. Why??"
She said making me relieved that I am not going to force her or something. " Sanvi my family is here to ask your hand for me , they want us to get married."
