'Shaant ho, na."

"How am I supposed to calm down, ma!" I say, fervently! I fidget with my fingers while sitting down in absolute shock and surprise.
My childhood crush of whom I had just taken off my mind is now returning to my life as my betrothed.

Kabir. Kabir Singh Shekhawat. The Shekhawat's are the pride and joy of India's financial industry and my father's friendly business rivals. My father is the owner of investment company filled with a bunch finance consultants. Kabir is the eldest son of the Shekhawat's, their pride and joy. Graduated from prestige, born in prestige and raised in prestige. Even his grades are prestige. Kabir and I met when we six and we continued to be the best of friends till seventeen. After a decade of friendship and unrequited love from my side- he blocks me! Ghosts me and absolutely leaves me helpless!

"You like Kabir, no?" My father asks. Well, duh! You were the one that confiscated my photos of him and violently told me to move on.

"Listen, don't ask questions- just- I don't know go with the flow," Kabir says. He's glown up-his myscles are gleaming and sweaty.

And I'm under him, just great.
