Authors POV

"So I have an idea.. infact two of them!" Avni says smiling.

"Okay what?" Neil asks.

"Let's kidnap Arjun! We can tell ali & Riya to! And then release him after the wedding! That way, people won't think that only the dulhan got kidnapped!" Avni exclaims.

"Pathetic idea. Arjun isn't that stupid. He will find out & tell everyone. What's your other idea?" Neil asks.

"The other idea may require some of my acting & drama skills.. and it may be a pain for you but it could work!" Avni says grinning widely.

"Oh great. More Avni drama! What else could go wrong?" Neil says sarcastically.

Avni hits Neil's shoulder.

"Suno na! So we can go to the venue, and you can come along and then we can..." Avni speaks of the plan into Neil's ears.

"No way! No in the hell way avni!" Neil exclaims.

"Yes baby! Yes yes yes!!" Avni replies smirking.

In evening:

"Oh my god! Where is my daughter?? I don't know what that beast will do to her. My poor baby..I hope she is okay.. the bharaat will be here soon.. what will we do??!" Ayesha exclaimed in terror.

Ashish called the police & looked everywhere. There was no sign of Neil & Avni. The guests had arrived, the groom & his family arrived. Arjun had convinced his parents to marry avni. Arjun arrived with the happiest face but soon it turned into a frown.

"Where's the bride?" He asks.

Everyone was shocked to find out Avni was kidnapped. Ayesha was crying, ashish was very upset, Arjun's parents him Arjun the death glare. Arjun gulped hard.

After sometime Neil & Avni arrived. Avni pretended to cry. Everyone asked Avni what was wrong & where she was. Ayesha hugged her. Ashish & Arjun's face dropped when they saw the mangalsutra on her neck & sindoor on her forehead.

Neil stood there awkwardly. He was waiting for the real act to start.

"Iss zalim aadmi ne mujhse zabardasti shadi Krli!" Avni yelled pretending to cry. Her face was flushed, neil could tell she was about to burst into laughter. What a drama queen, he thought almost smiling.

"Neil how dare you?!" Ashish yelled.

Ayesha slaps Neil in anger.

Arjun's face drops.

"Now way! This isn't marriage! It is forced! Avni, you can give him divorce right now!" Arjun yells impatiently.

Avni sighs to continue her drama.

"No arjun no. I'm an Indian girl... shadi bas ek bar hoti hai... aur pyar.. woh bhi ek bar hoti hai!" Avni exclaims almost in shahrukh Khan's accent.

"Oh god..." Neil whispers, thinking she's too filmy.

"Well she's already married now. And I won't divorce her." Neil says in the most stern way possible hoping he wouldn't laugh.

Ashish could handle his anger.

"How dare you Neil?! I will kill you! How could you do this to my daughter! Your the worst man I've seen!" Ashish yells.

Suddenly everyone turned around to a sound.

"Hey baghwan! Meri toh zindagi tabah ho gaye!" (My life has been ruined)Says a girl under the ghungat (veil).

A random girl walks in wearing a veil on her face.

"I'm pregnant with this man's child! He cannot get married to someone else!" The women under the veil yells. She walks up to Neil & Avni.

Everyone thinks the girl is walking towards Neil, but she walks past him, towards Arjun.

Arjun's face drops.

"How could you marry someone else, when I have your baby in my womb. Huh??" The women dramatically says.

Avni & Neil smile as the voice of the women was familiar. It was their crazy Riya.

"Wtf?? Who are you?? I don't even have a girlfriend!" Arjun yells, his face was flustered. Everyone forgot about Avni being kidnapped & they all focused on Arjun.

Suddenly another man enters the party as a fake priest wearing a beard.

"Hey baghwan! What am I hearing??" Says the fake priest.

He walks up to Arjun.

"Oh dear! He impregnates a young women & now refuses that he knows her! He's running away from his responsibilities! You should be punished for your acts boy!" The fake priest says.

Neil's face went flushed red as he was controlling his laugh. The fake priest was Ali.

"I want justice!" Riya yells under the veil.

Neil chuckled.

"Wow! Before pointing fingers on me, you guys should see what the groom has done! Atleast I love Avni.." Neil says.

"What an honest boy! I'm touched!" Ali says smiling towards Neil.

The guests start talking about the situation among each other.

Arjun's Dad slaps him across the face.

"Dad I swear! I didn't do anything! Please don't kick me out of the house!" Arjun exclaims almost embarrassed infront of everyone.

"He doesn't even have his own house! And he's such a daddy's boy! What will he give to your daughter?!" Ali says to ashish.

Ashish started thinking.

Ali & Riya smirked as the plan was working.

Arjun's parents drag him out, embarrassed of his son. Riya slowly slips out after they leave. People start sympathizing with Ashish Mehta as this was the second time he was humiliated but he shouldn't be as the groom wasn't worth it. Ashish felt a little better.

Ayesha calms down & walks towards Neil.

"Neil.. if you break my daughter's heart or hurt her in any way, you will see the worst of me." Ayesha says.

Then ali pitched in.

"Sir! Accept him as your son-in-law! Atleast your daughter has a husband now! On top of that, Arjun turned out to be a loose character!" Ali says as the priest, almost bursting into laughter.

With that ashish agreed & hugs Avni.

"Don't ever think you're alone. I will always support you no matter what my superstar.. And I'm right next door if you need anything. Ashish says as he tears hugging Avni & lets her go with Neil to his house.
