"No, I....I am your daughter. I am Rita and Rohit Shekhar's daughter." Anvi stuttered, not believing any of the words of her mother. She turned to her right as she didn't want to face the truth that the mirror was showing her.
Rita shook her head with her eyes filled with tears. She made Anvi turn towards the mirror once again to make her see the reality. "Look at yourself. Your eyes are like Suhana. Your nose, your smile, your dimples, and even your hair colour. You are her replica. Didn't you find it bizarre that she used to cry whenever you used to get hurt?" Anvi recalled how Suhana would go crazy whenever she used to find Anvi in pain but at the same time she also had witnessed Rita in pain for her.
"She is your mother and a mother can never see her children in pain."
"You used to cry as well for me," Anvi replied sternly.
"Anvi, beta, you need to believe me." Rita cupped her cheeks but Anvi swatted her hands saying "No, n
Author******We have twenty minutes left, people.' the announcement was made.Anvi looked at the entrance and then at her phone feeling restless. Nikhil hadn't replied to her text."Don't worry, he would come before the race even starts," Dhriti assured her."Exactly. Jai is with him. They both would be here any moment now." said Niharika.They had all gathered to watch a car race. Arranging tickets wasn't any difficult as Kiaan had arranged for everyone. Nikhil and Jai had to go to buy easy little panda cupcakes for everyone as the previous ones Dhruv had bought was wasted because of Arjun and Anvi's fight.Dhruv had bought various types of cupcakes. There was one with a panda face which was wanted by both Anvi and Arjun. They fought over it and when the box of cupcakes fell on the floor the two started crying like kids.'I want that panda cupcake.' Arjun had demanded crying.'So do I.' had replied Anvi. Everyone calme
Nikhil******I changed from a navy blue shirt to a light blue as suddenly I remembered Anvi loved that colour on me the most. After the shirt then came the tie. It was an arduous task. The responsibility of that duty was Anvi's. Without her, I wasn't able to choose the right one. After contemplating on which one I should go with I decided on the black one.Then came the turn of watches. She had a thing for my watches. She loved my collection. I knew any would do but still, I wanted to be the best for her so I chose the best one, the black Rado watch Nirvana had gifted me on my last birthday.After I put on my blazer and my shoes I was ready, ready to go to my wife, to bring her back to me.After I descended the stairs I looked at the strained faces of my family and friends. I was stressed but not as much as them. I was mindful that Anvi and I together will turn things in our favour."You, ok?" Namit asked, smiling. He knew how not to make m
Hello Lovely Readers,First of all, thank you so much for giving the book Bride In Blue a try. It really means a lot to me.The book Bride In Blue has ended but not the story of Anvi and Nikhil. There is still a lot of things left.This was a tale of a forced marriage that wasn't destined to end well.Even though they eventually ended up falling for each other but what if Anvi would have been like Ahana or what if Nikhil would have been a person like Ankit. The marriage would have been a total disaster. The reasons for the broken marriage would be revealed in the next part.The second part of this book is named, Yearning Hearts and is ongoing, currently.If you haven't read my other stories then please do give them a try as well. I would be really grateful.Thank You,Shrishtee

14 August 2010AnviIt’s Saturday. Yayyy! Weekends are best; no school, no studies and you can sleep for as many hours as you want.“Anvi, wake up. It’s 7 in the morning.” Mom shouted.Ok!! You can ignore the last part of what I said. It is just an illusion that you can sleep according to your wish. But somehow I will manage to sleep in the afternoon.Sssshhhh! Please don’t tell Mom.“Anvi, you want me to come over.”Mom shouted.I need to go, otherwise, my furious mother will wake up the whole town.“I am already up, Mom.”“Good, now better be at the breakfast table in 15 minutes.”'Shit!' I cursed under my breath, if mom could listen to these curse words, I am so dead.I completed the morning routine and ran down the stairs but bumped into my elder brother.“So, the princes
16 August 2010Anvi******“Anvi, don’t forget to invite Sara to Arpit’s birthday.”“Okay, Aunty,” I replied and sat in the car. Arpit was sitting at the front seat, while Bhaiya sat beside me. Oh! I forgot to tell you, we are going to school and I will meet Sara, She came back yesterday.Adhyan Bhaiya was busy in studies even in the car while I looked out of the window to enjoy the lovely weather and my sweet little brother was busy solving Rubik's cube. My mind dragged me to the conversation I had with Bhaiya two days ago about The Red Journal.He said he doesn’t know anything about it but his expressions gave in. It was evident that he lied but I didn’t dare to ask him as he clearly warned me not to talk about it and also not to eavesdrop, but that was just unintentional.Anyways, Bhaiya has been acting very weird since
21 August 2010Anvi******“The Red Journal”‘Just Be You,And The One You Adore So Much will Come To See You.’Ah! Why can’t I decipher the meaning of it?It was so frustrating to solve the riddle. I pulled my hair in frustration and the passer-by gave me weird looks. Composing myself, I behaved normally and smiled at them which only made them look at me with pity, as if I am insane. Of course, they will think of me like that, otherwise which sane person pulls his/her hair in a public park.I have read The Red Journal and to be honest, I didn’t find anything to be worried about, but it feels like jumbled words to me and I hate solving riddles.If I get the chance then I will go back in time to stop the person from inventing this weird thing.Who plays with words?Anyways, I got to know that this journal bel
23 August 2010Anvi******“And then she listened to everything. I wish things would remain the same.” I said to my cousin, I meant Annapurna Maasi’s daughter Vidya. She is the one I adore the most.Oh! Did I forget to tell you that the riddle was solved?'Just Be YouAnd The One You Adore So Much Will Come To See You.'I didn’t get what it meant until I was asked to participate in a drama competition at school.I had been given two choices, either to play the role of my friend or myself. And that’s when it struck, I chose to be myself and when I came home I found Vidya who had come to stay with us for a few days as Maasi had gone to Mumbai for work.Is this Red Journal mystical? Who cares, I was happy that I got to meet my favourite cousin after so long.“Di,” Vidya called me.“Yes?”
