15: Trip (Part one)

Ishanvi's POV

Mom and I were setting up breakfast. There was poha, patodi, dhokla, fafda, jalebi, and my and author's fav, locho, (The author is a die hard fan for locho.)chai and coffee for Ruhi.

(I'm dying from shame, I'm a Gujarati, and still cannot think of any Gujarati breakfast.)

Then only dad and Rudransh came, but I sent them to go upstairs as they were all sweaty and stinking, not gonna lie but he was looking hot with that white shirt. After sometime both of them came, and settled in their respective places.

We were having breakfast in peace, when dad announced,

" We are going to Somnath, the weather is good today and even Rudransh is here, it's a perfect chance." And all of us agreed as there was no reason to disagree too.

We all had finished our breakfast and now I am in my room, Rudransh was with dad discussing about something. We were leaving today only, in the evening. We have not informed Kiaan or Feri about this because I wanted to surprise them, not only them but Sara and Saransh too as they would be staying with us only.

I was getting bored now and our bag were packed too but then I thought to get ready but it will be boring, so I told Alexa to play you belong with me by Taylor Swift (author is a die hard fan of hers!!!!).

Rudransh's POV

I entered the room after sometime as her dad had called me, to discuss something with him, so I went. But as soon as I entered I saw her dancing while getting ready, looking breathtaking, she was wearing a grey coloured anarkali type.

(Her outfit)

But wait she is dancing, I leaned against the door frame and watched her dance while pouting her lips and sing in her melodious voice. She looked breathtaking, doing gestures with her hands, she's cute. She was looking like the cutest creature in the entire universe.

Author's POV

She was dancing, sing fearless now.

Take my hand and drag me headfirst,

Fearless,

And I don't know,

How it gets better than this-,

But as she turned around she saw Rudransh standing, smiling which showcased his dimples.

"Why did you stopped, I was enjoying it!" He stated with a motive to tease her and gave her a teasing smile while wiggling his brows. But Ishanvi found herself at the loss of words, so just glared at him in reply, but to him it was anything but serious.

But her anger crossed its meter when he came near her and squeezed her cheeks, forming a baby pout whereas she widened her eyes. But she immediately clutched his wrist and dug her nails into them, but he freed his wrist and ran towards the bathroom; but she screamed in frustration and messed her hair.

After sometime,

He came after taking the bath, but didn't saw her; but he knew her since they were in 7th grade. He knew that she was upto something, in order to take her revenge. So he sneakily went toward the wardrobe and changed his attire. He saw her sitting on the bed and with his phone, but she was not giving him her attention instead she gave it to his god damn phone. But with god's grace, she finally looked at him and spoke,

" It was calling me, desperately, that's why I accepted his request."

" That and all is okay, but how did you it's his!?" He asked curiously

" You don't let any other female be with you, except me. That's it and that's how I concluded that it is his." She explained with a not-so-innocent smile.

And he went to dressing table to set his hairs, but she came behind and stood infront of him, acting to find something in the drawer. But then she suddenly raise her head, and looked at him. She made puppy eyes and looked at him,

"I want that one (pointing towards the comb which he was holding), can I take it!?" but before he could answer she snatched it and gave him a forced smile, and started to brush her hair. Rudransh shook his head at his wife's antics and was about to take another one but then Ishanvi took that brush quickly, and started to comb her perfectly set hair. He sighed and took another one from there only, but Ishanvi snatched that one too. She again repeated her actions with all the combs Rudransh took, but all the combs which she had snatched were gathered in her hand which resulted in one brush falling from her hand.

Rudransh now knew that Ishanvi was on a mission to irritate the hell out of him, and he let her do so knowing that she won't do anything other than that. But she suddenly came in front of him and stood there, said

"Look at me, it's not looking good!" she said and suddenly ruffled his hair, ruining his hard work of half an hour. She was about to run, but Rudransh caught her by her wrist and pulled her under him; that is between Him and the dressing table. He lifted her up by her waist and placed her on the table, with his hands on the either ways of her waist and leaned in closer making her back off. Her back had touched the mirror while their faces were inches apart.

"Why did you do so!?" he asked in his deep voice.

"Why did squeezed my cheeks!?" she asked leaning closer, and were about to kiss but

BOOM💥

Ruhi called her,

"didi jaldi karo, late thai chhel!!!!" which made both of them scared not only them, but others too as they heard some sound of plates breaking.

[Didi quickly, we are getting late!!!!!}

And they left from there afterwards, but not before setting his hair and making a half bun from his hair.

Ishanvi's POV

when I saw his phone, lying there lonely calling me to look at it. So I accepted it's request, and opened it. I opened it and saw the lock screen.

I was going through his phone, well he doesn't have that much not even a single game, what kind of man have I married, though he is a whole green forest but still being a red flag, I need kalesh in my life like I need oxygen.

" Does he really not any girl??"

" He does, it's Aashvi"

" How is that bitch included in this, author!?"

"Kalesh tujhe hi chahiye meri behen!!"

" Not her, she's a mama's bitch, author pagal hogai hai!!"And I went to change my outfit as it was getting late.

" Kya zamana aa'gaya hai, kisiko bhalai palle hi nahi padti!!"

[VOTE!! VOTE!! VOTE!! VOTE!! VOTE!!]

Author's POV

They were all sitting in the car, in the 1st one it was Ishanvi and Rudransh; in the second one it was her parents and Ruhi, they were accompanied by 10 cars back and forth.

Ishanvi was in the driving seat as she wanted to do so, Rudransh being a gentleman, tried to convince her but still she didn't. She was driving calmly but it was his stare which was doing wonders in her stomach, so to ignore his stare, she initiated a comic conversation with him as it would always be her who will start a conversation due to his childhood trauma.

"Mein'ne kuch kiya kya, aise kyu dekh rahe hol?"she chirped like a bird after taking a glance at him, and again fixed her eyes on the road ahead.

(Did I do something, why are you looking at me like that!?)

"Haan bohot kuch kiya hai, par mere dil ko. Hayye mere dil!!" he said while putting his hand on his chest. Would anyone believe that this is the same Rudransh who kills people mercilessly.

{Yes you did, but to my heart.}

"Kiaan bhi aapse kam nautanki karta hai, minster sahab!" she said while being done with his dramatic behaviour and was about to roll her eyes but stopped, knowing the consequence of her action she stopped.

{You do drama more than Kiaan, minster sahab!}

But after sometime, the silence surrounding their car became suffocating to Ishanvi. So she thought to tease Rudransh a little, she cleared her throat bringing his attention to her. She stated,

"Accha hua ki aapne aaj shave kar'liya!"

{It is good that you shaved today!}

(His beard you dirty people, and not the clean shave.)

"Kyu, aur agar nahi karta toh!?" he asked being curious about her statement.

{Why, what if I wouldn't have!?}

"Agar nahi toh app bhaalu ko compete kar sakte!" she spoke ahead with a motive to tease him further.

{If not, then you could compete with a bear}

Whereas Rudransh looked at her with an offended look, and why not she just told him that he can compete with a bear.

"Kya bandi ho, apne pati ko bhaalu se compete karne ko bol rahi!!"

{What kind of girl are you, telling your husband to compete with a bear!!}

"jesi bhi hu ab aapki hi hu, ab agar return karna ho toh ek aur chance hai, hum log Gujarat me hi hai, chod jaao mujhe idhar!"

{However am I, I'm yours only, yea but if you want to return then you still have a chance, we are in Gujarat only, you can leave me here!}

And finally they reached Rudransh's villa, yes his cause they were going through the chopper. They needed to take off two choppers at the same time as they cannot risk their safety. And at her home, there is space only for a single chopper to take off.

As they reached there, it was opened by the guards, they directly went to the backyard. There were numerous guards protecting the property. The pilot and Rudransh did a handshake and got into it.

In the first chopper, it had Ishanvi and Rudransh in it. And in second it was her parents and Ruhi.

Ishanvi was looking out from the window, admiring the view of the greenery beneath them, whereas Rudransh was admiring his beauty.

And why not, she was the one who added colour in his life, thinking about how she had changed him.

At his villa,

They were now driving towards the Somnath temple and this time it was Rudransh driving. His left hand was resting her lap, whereas the other one was handling the steering wheel. She was singing Reckless by Madison Beer in the car, he has a different playlist of her favourite songs in his car (playlist of her favourite songs 🤌🤌🤌) when they got a call from Ruhi,

"I called you both to inform you that we will be going to Gir after the Somnath Darshan, are you guys coming or not!?"

They looked at each other and agreed to it, so yea they are going the Gir forest.

At the Somnath temple

As soon as they came out of their cars, the paparazzis flashed their camera lights onto their their faces. The bodyguards circled around them, Ishanvi and Rudransh were ahead, with her parents and Ruhi behind them.

Rudransh placed his right hand on her lower back, and his left hand was guiding them through the crowd, Rudra (her father) smiled looking at Rudransh being protective towards, knowing that he has made right to get her married to Rudransh. They had reserved the entire temple for 20 mins, 20 mins only because they just wanted to seek their deity's blessings and on top of that they cannot reserve it for more time as it was a public property, and if this news of them reserving the place gets out, then it might create a huge controversy.

(This will be in Gujarati)

As they were ascending the stairs of the temple, Rudra pulled Ishanvi towards him and asked,

"Ave rad ke mein tane force kare'lu lagan mate!!" He asked teasingly, and she understood what Rudra was talking about.

{Now cry, that I forced you to get married!!}

"Ket'la luchha chho ne tame, papa!!" She stated with slight pink cheeks, after getting caught by her dad.

{How evil are you, dad!!}

" Arrey mein toh boj luchho chhu!!" He exclaimed as if nothing happened, and he left her there with red blushing cheeks which can surely compete with tomatoes, if kept beside her face. But little did they know someone was watching her every move; your cute lovely author is as evil as Rudra himself, watch ahead to know!!

{Arrey I'm very evil!!}

They did the shiv-pujan, and distributed the Prasad between the family and the bodyguards. They were going towards their car when Rudransh asked her,
