I gritted my teeth seeing the presentation going around for more than two hours. The deal was already ours, there's no doubt in that. But the client we signed, demanded this presentation and that stubborn Aakash let a new girl to do the presentation. She being new to this was explaining more than necessary. I could've stopped it, if not for the client Mr. Mehta who was elder to me and like a mentor.

The annoyance started only after my promise of going out with Khushi knocked my mind.

After months, she willingly asked me to taker her to a candle light dinner. And here I was stuck with this damn meeting.

I looked down at my mobile anticipating a threatening message from her. But it didn't came like it arrives usually instead she barged into the conference hall.

I gulped seeing her enraged form. Cladding in a black classy saree she was breath takenly awesome only if she didn't rolled her big eyes scaring me.

Is it only I was scared of her? I mused noticing everyone. They sat shocked but other than that there was nothing.

"Excuse me gentlemen, it was past eight and it exceeded AR working hours. So now it's time to wrap up this meeting. It would be nice if you stop this here" She spoke with authority.

"Excuse me, Who are you to stop this meeting when ASR itself allowed it" I would've strangled him if he sat next to me.

"Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada. One of the board director of AR fashions. Do you have any questions?" She raised her brows keeping her stern face. Her eyes literally spitting fire like a lioness.

My Lioness!

My chest swelled in pride with the realisation.

"How are you beta? It's been long time we met. Why don't you and ASR come to our home for dinner? It would be nice" I heard Mr. Mehta talking to Khushi and Khushi nodded with a smile and asked about his health. Who would tell this girl who behaved lioness few seconds before was now talking polietly with love. Lovely, girl. All mine!

For courtesy, I handshaked and accompanying him to the door. Everyone else left already.

As soon as Mr. Mehta was out I stumbled back. Raised my eyes I saw my lioness back. Oops! Now lion has to face the wrath of lioness.

"Khushi.." I stretched my hand to hold her which she pushed away vigorously.

"What Khushi? Do you know what day is today?"

She pushed me back and I took two steps behind. I frowned, tomorrow was our anniversary which I remember but what today?

"You didn't remember right? I know. I know this Raizada brain only remembers facts, figures and deals" She blasted panting heavily.

"Khushi"

This time I fell back on the nearby seat as she pushed me more.

"What will happen before wedding?" Asked she holding my tie.

What will happen?

"Rituals" I answered with hesitation.

She gritted her teeth "You seriously lost it Raizada. What will happen the night before wedding?"

I choked when she pulled my tie harshly. Man, she is really angry.

I gently loosen her hold and opened my top two buttons to ease the tension.

What will happen the night before wedding??? Bachelor's party. Shit, how can I forget it.

I looked at her apologetically and pulled her on my lap.

She dilated her pupils and it changed into normal when I peck her cheeks soundly.

"Sorry"

She pouted but nonetheless she throws her arms around my neck and smiled sweetly. I know she can't stay angry with me for long that too not in a special day.
