My Heartbeat (✔)

Chapter 18

Party-

Arjun's pov :

All arrangements were done by the evening. Guests started arriving slowly. Ma, Pa and Abhi jiju are receiving guests at the entrance. Kavitha di is making Ritu ready for the party. I'm greetings some guests inside, but all my eyes are towards the entrance. I'm eagerly waiting for Aaru's arrival.

Here comes my angry bird along with her friends. So cute and beautiful in her red long dress.

                    Aaradhya's look

I went towards them.

"Welcome Aaru , Mahira and Purvi." I said.

"Thank you, Arjun. " Aaru said with her beautiful smile.

Her friends smiled as a greeting. I called a waiter and offered them soft drinks. We talked for a few minutes. I excused myself to attend so guests.

After sometime Aaru came towards me.

"Where is Rithvik?" She asked looking around.

"Ritu is inside, getting ready. Kavitha di is with him. Go and join her, seems  like that little devil is giving hard time for di." I said.

"Oyee.! Don't call him a little devil. He is such a good boy. Moreover, today is his birthday, you should not scold him." She said in a strict tone.

Good boy! Joke of the year.

"He is not so good boy, as you think. He is just so good at acting innocent." I said.

"He is just being a little naughty. He is so cute. You should not scold him today. Promise me." She said extending her hand with a cute smile.

How can I say no to my cute angry bird?

"Ok. Promise. I. Will. Not. Scold. Him. Today. " I said keeping my hand on her's.

She excused herself and went upstairs towards di's room.

I joined Daksh and Yash. Today Daksh is looking so happy. He is continuously staring at Mahira.

                      Mahira's look.

"Hello. Mr Lover boy. Are you going to make a move in your love story or  are you just going to keep looking at her?" I asked with a wink.

"Don't make fun of me man. I too want to go and talk with her, but what to do! How can I just go and say I love you to her. She doesn't even know my existence. She will think of me as a roadside Romeo." He said with a sad face.

"Who asked you to go and propose now? I'm just saying you to first introduce yourself to her then later slowly  you can say about your love to her." I said encouraging him.

"Yes, Daksh. Listen to Arjun, suddenly our Mr Workaholic became a Love Guru and giving love advice. " Yash said mocking me.

I gave him a serious look.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that? Whatever I said is true. Before I used to come and remained you about everything apart from your office work, but now everything changed and say me I thing when you became so experienced in love? You are advising Daksh." He asked.

"Who said I'm experienced? And we don't need a lot of experience to give good advice." I explained.

"You are behaving like my jealous ex-girlfriend ." I said.

"What! Me. Jealous. No way. " He said.

"Guys. Stop fighting like kids. See there Ritu is coming. It's time to cut the cake. " Daksh said pointing towards our back.

Kavitha di and Aaru are bringing Ritu,   Jiju joined them. Aaru greeted jiju and went towards her friends.

                          Ritu's look

  "Attention all. A very good evening. First of all, I'm thanking you all for accepting our invitation and making your valuable presence at my grandson birthday party. As you all know today my grandson Rithvik Singh is celebrating his 8th birthday. It's time to cut the cake." Dad said with a smile.

Di and jiju made Ritu cut the cake. We all clapped and sang the happy birthday song. Ritu gave the first bite to himself. We all laughed at him.

They are two birthday cakes. As Di liked both, she ordered both.

All gave there blessings and gifts for Ritu.

Party went on for some time. They is a play area for kids, so all kids along with there parents joined there.

We too played there for some time. Ritu, di, Aaru and her friends are one team. Me, jiju, Daksh and Yash are the opposite team. We played for some time. We all enjoyed ourselves a lot. Ritu looked so happy.
