Sid called Ashi.

Ashi: Achha ok. Guys I will try. But I am not promising anything. Mereko leave milna kafi mushkil hai. Aur aese short notice par to matlab I don't think. But chlo mein krti hu try. Tum log tension matt lo. Just chill. Be happy. It's your time guys

Avu: Dekh mein bohot maaroongi nhi aayi to

Ashi: Hnn mein krti hu

Avu: Hmm

After talking for sometime, they cut the call. They got busy with preprations. Avu called her again after 2 days.

Ashi: Yrr Avu mera boss nhi maan rha. Mein try kr rhi hu. Tu chinta matt kar

Avu threw her phone in anger.

Avu: Hmmf I will kill this bastard boss

Avu used to call her everyday but her reply was same. 1 week passed. The rituals were gonna begin from next morning.

Avu was sitting ready in her yellow dress for haldi. She was continously trying to call Ashi but her phone was switched off. Someone quitely came inside and covered her eyes from behind. Avu touched the hands and immediately recognized the touch. Tears came out of her eyes. She got up and hugged her tightly. All came in her room. She broke the hug and started beating her.

Avu: Btaya kyu nhi hnn. Gadhi khiki

Ashi: Bta deti to aesa reaction kaise milta hnn?

Avu pouted angrily.

Jaan: To kaisa laga surprise?

Avu: Means you all knew about it?

Sid: Except me. Mujhe bhi just teri tarah abhi pata chla hai

Avu: Maan gia tera boss

Ashi: Arre wo to maine usko jaake bola. Thoda request ki aur wo pehli baar mein hi maan gia. Kaam itna nhi tha. Pta tha I will surely get leave. Mein to bass aese hi tum logo ko chida rhi thi

Sid came towards her and hugged her.

Ashi: Miss kia mujhe?

Sid: Chudailo ko bhi koi miss krta hai hnn? 6 saal bade sukoon se kate hai

Ashi: Achha aesa hai flight pakadke wapis chali jati hu

Sid: Aese kaise?

They all met her one by one.

Ashi: By the way Vaishu di, meri princess kidar hai?

Vaish: Gusse mein hai

Ashi: Kyu?

Vaish: Uske first crush shaadi ho rhi hai na

Ashi: Arre bapre. Fir to milna pdega. Chhote se bache ka dil tod dia iss bandar ne

Vaish: Hnn tu mille shayad maan hi jae

Ashi: Chlo

Vaish and Ashi went to Jai's room. Avi was sitting there pouting angrily.

Ashi: Mutual feelings. I can understand

Ashi went to her and sat beside her.

Vaish: Baby ye Ashi massi. Aap inki pics dekhte the na? Aur 1-2 baar baat bhi ki. Haina?

Avi looked at her.

Ashi: Hello bacha

Avi: Hii

She handshaked with her.

Avi: Aap mele lie kya gift lae ho?

Vaish: Arre aese nhi bolte

Ashi: Di aap chup ho jao. Mein apni princess ke lie dher saari chocolates aur dresses layi hu

Avi: Sachi????

Ashi: Hnn par doongi tab jab aap mujhse friendship kroge. So friends?

Avi handshaked with her. They bonded quite well in a small time. After sometime, she got busy with her games.

Vaish: Chlo haldi start hone wali hai

Ashi: Hnji

They all went outside. Vaish applied haldi. Then VA. AU and SA came. AU got emotional.

AU: Itni si thi. Aur ab dekho. Aaj haldi bhi ho rhi hai iski

Then Jaireem came. Jai applied haldi on Avu's face. Avu took a little and put on his. Everyone came one by one and applied haldi. The whole gang came at the end. They took lot of haldi in their hands and put on their faces. They enjoyed for sometime, then went to take bath.

In evening, it was mehandi. All girls sat down to get mehandi on their hands.

Mehandi girl: Name kya likhna hai?

Avu: (blushed) Siddharth ek hand par. Doosre par bandar

After sometime, boys came and sat beside their girls. They found their names. Sid saw bandar and frowned. Avu chuckled. Then he found Siddharth and kissed there.

Jaan: Oho someone being romantic ha?

After some teasing, boys brought food  for their girls. They fed them.

Next day

It was sangeet at night. So everyone was doing preprations.

To be continued

And all those who were missing Ashi, here you go. Happy?
