They landed in Australia and reached the resort where the wedding was to take place.
Karan held Tripura's hand as they walked in and found so many Indians at the reception already.
Tripura tightened her hold on his hand and Karan whispered "Relax Tripura"
She looked up at him and smiled when he smiled at her.
"Karan!!" The to be bride rushed to him and took him in a tight hug which made him leave Tripura's hand and hug his cousin.
Alvira broke the hug and said "Almost 10 years last I saw you"
"Yeah and you're getting married today" Karan smiled sweetly pulling her cheek which made her wince "No, you used to pull my cheek back then and even now"
"Haha! That's my right as your brother" Karan laughed while Tripura admired their bond.
Just then they heard a voice coming up to them "So finally after you left your dad to die, you're here han?"
Mandini Khanna taunted.
"Mom!!" Alvira glared at her mother.
"I've invited Karan...." She said and Karan wore his shades saying "If it wasn't for Alvira, I wouldn't have ever come to a bitch like you"
Everyone gasped and Karan silently held Tripura's hand and walked out from there to his own private villa booked here.
Karan locked the door behind them once they were in their villa which consisted of a living, 3 rooms and an open kitchen and a private pool on the first floor.
"Aapne aisa kya kaha ki sab chup hogaye?" She asked softly and Karan said picking out an outfit from his bag "I used a bad word"
"Kyun? Woh aapki chachi hai na?"
"She's never been one to me" Karan said and walked into the washroom while Tripura wanted to know what happened that he was away from his only family.
Tripura picked an outfit and went to the next room to freshen up and get ready as the mehendi function would start in half an hour.
They got ready in a matching outfit :

Karan kissed her forehead and said "You're looking so beautiful"
Tripura blushed and couldn't help but gaze at his hard built chest which peeked from the kurta.
Karan cleared his throat which brought her out of her trance with flushed cheeks as she looked away.
"If you want a full show I'll give you after we come back to the room" Karan whispered huskily near her ear which made her cheeks go red.
"Late ho raha hai.." Tripura mumbled shyly on which Karan laughed and walked out of the villa, having his arm around her waist, possessively.
Everyone turned their heads at them making her conscious as they walked to the venue which was the beautiful garden where the groom and bride's mehendi had begun.
Some of his faraway cousins dragged Karan away while alvira called Tripura to her.
Before Tripura could sit next to her, they heard a lady asking "Who are you?"
She was the same age as Mandini who was sitting next to her friend and nearby alvira who was having the designers crafting mehendi on her hands.
"She's another of the bed warmers of Karan" Mandini snarled at Tripura.
"Mom.." Alvira tried to stop her but the other lady snickered "Oh, now he's started bringing women with him to family functions?"
Mandini gave a disgusting look to Tripura who by now had tears rolling down her cheeks as she stood with her head low feeling ashamed.
"Also she's so young probably around 20-21. Don't you have shame to sleep with an older man?" The lady said.
Mandini said in a harsh tone "Why will she have a problem, she's getting paid very well by him. Look at the clothes and luxuries she's getting.. anyways she's no where near our standards... didn't know Karan's choice has stooped so low.."
"YOU'VE STOOPED FUCKING LOW.." Karan interrupted in a loud voice coming next to Tripura. It grabbed everyone's attention now and the ceremony stopped due to the commotion.
"I DOUBT ALVIRA IS YOUR DAUGHTER... SHE IS GOLD AND YOU'RE A DIRT! YOU MUST HAVE SLEPT WITH SO MANY MEN AS YOU SEEM TO BE TOO EXPERIENCED... AND YOU TOO AUNTY, PROBABLY YOU MUST HAVE WORKED IN SOME BROTHEL IN YOUR YOUNG DAYS.."
"KARAN" Sanjay Khanna stepped next to his wife, Mandini.
"HOW DARE YOU TALK RUBBISH FOR MY WIFE AND OUR GUEST.."
"HOW DARE YOUR BITCHY WIFE AND THIS BUDHIYA TALK TO MY GIRLFRIEND LIKE THAT?" Karan yelled like a raging bull.
Tripura shivered, keeping her head still down.
"GET . OUT . NOW" Sanjay pressed on the words while gritting his teeth.
"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO TELL THIS, I MYSELF WON'T STAY AT A PLACE WHERE MY GIRL IS NOT RESPECTED"
With this Karan held Tripura's hand and walked off to their villa. Karan slammed the door with a loud bang raging in fire which startled Tripura and resulted in new set of tears rolling down her cheeks as she stood clutching the sides of her lehenga.
"WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING TO THEM TRIPURA?" He yelled making her flinch in her place.
She started sobbing while hiccuping and Karan pulled his hair cursing himself to calm the fuck down.
On the other hand, someone recorded the scenario and put it across the most heated platform where news spreads faster than anywhere else - INSTAGRAM!
Karan went and embraced Tripura in his arms where she sobbed burying her face in his chest. He held her damn close to him and murmured "Sorry baby, I'm so sorry to raise my voice at you. I didn't mean to scare you. It was my anger, sorry baby"
