Our journey from engagement to marriage by Shipra Saini (thriller book recommendations TXT) 📖

Papa, Anshul and keerti asked in unison. But I was too scared to look at them or pull away from Siddharth. I still standing there hiding my face in Siddharth's chest and his arms are around me.

"She saw a cockroach in the kitchen." 
Siddharth told everyone.

I can hear the humor in his voice but I was to afraid to notice anything.

"It's not a normal one.. it's flying." I said while still hiding  myself in Siddharth's embrace.

"Every cockroach can fly Preeti. They don't fly until you don't annoy them." I heard Anshul's voice.

"This girl is 22 and still afraid of cockroaches." I heard mummy said to everyone.

"Wait..here I it shoo away." Andhul said.

"I am also coming." Keerti said.

"Just kill him Anshul don't shoo him away." I said still hiding myself in Siddharth's chest.

"If I killed him, His poor soul will haunt you in your dreams poor sissy." I heard Anshul from the kitchen.

"I can handle it in my dreams but not in real.."

Siddharth's chest vibrates when he chuckled softly.

"Preeti careful. It's flying in your direction.." Anshul said loudly from the kitchen.

"Si..Sid...Siddharth..Siddharth..Please..Please save me." I said while encircling my arms around him and hold him close to me for my dear life.

He also hugged me back tightly. I hide my face in the crook of his neck to block my surroundings.

"Shhh...he is messing with you." Siddharth whispered in my ear while caressing my back to calm me. My heart is still beating fast.

"Anshul stop scaring her..She is already afraid." I heard mummy is screaming on Anshul and he and keerti are laughing.

"Hey..Preeti..look what I have for you." I heard Anshul's voice just behind me.

When my heart is calm and I breath  nomaly I pulled off from the Siddharth and turned to Anshul to look at what he has for me.

As I turned to face Anshul he showed the same cockroach in front of my face. He is holding it from his antina and looked dead.

"Aaaaeee.." I screamed and hugged  Siddharth again for my life, like only he is the one who can save me from cockroach. Siddharth hugged me back.

"Are you planning to give her a heart attack." Mummy scold Anshul again and as much as I know mummy she probably smacked on his head.

I heard everyone's laughing including Siddharth.

"As much as I want you to hold like this, I don't want you feel embarrass later. Everyone is watching us. But if you don't want to I also won't mind to hold you." Siddharth  whispered in my ear.

As soon as I realized our position I immediately pulled back from Siddharth and looked everyone.

Indeed...everyone is looking at us. My cheeks immediately turn into beetroot shade. I looked at keerti and she is smirking on us.

I didn't say anything to anyone and walked from there. Actually more like I ran from there.
