It is an interesting tale which depicts, "I don't want to get married" to "How the hell am I supposed to convince them to get me married!"

Everyone sat to have dinner in the Siddiqui Mansion. As they all started eating, Umair spoke, breaking the silence, "I am thinking of getting Zoya married."
Aditya, who was drinking water, coughed on listening this. Damn! Why were the Siddiquis hell bent on getting Zoya married?
Zoya looked at her Ammi and Abbu with her eyes widened in shock. "Zoya, what do you think about this?" asked Umair. What was she supposed to answer? Should she tell her Grandfather that she loves Aditya or she should keep quiet.
She looked at him and her eyes fell on Arsal. An idea popped up in her mind. "Dadujaan, how can I marry before Bhai? He is elder to me. I cannot marry before him", said Zoya.
Arsal choked on the food and started coughing. He glared at Zoya who made a puppy face. "Iska vyah vi kar lenge. Pehle tera toh kar lein", said Umair. (We will get him married too. I am thinking about you now.)
"No! I have decided that I'll only get married after Bhai gets married", said Zoya stubbornly. She knew that her Grandfather would never deny her.
"Arsal, first you get married. I have even a girl in my mind for you", said Umair. "Dadajaan, is it necessary to get married?" asked Arsal and in response, he got a slap on his arm by his Mother.
"Yes! Don't you want to know the girl's name?" asked Umair. "Uss bala ka naam bhi bata hi dijiye", muttered Arsal. He then cleared his throat and asked, "Who is she?" (Tell me the name of that problem.)
"Saddi Zoya di saheli, Sonakshi", said Umair. Dev coughed and almost spilled the water in his plate. Sonakshi got shocked and looked at Zoya, who nodded in a no, indicating that she didn't know anything about this. (Our Zoya's friend, Sonakshi.)
"Ki ho gaya hain tum teeno nu? Dhang se kha lo. Kabke khaas rahe ho", said Umair. The three of them nodded obediently. Their hunger was long gone when they heard his announcement. (What's wrong with you? Eat properly.)
"Sona, call your Parents here if they are free", said Umair. "Dadaji, actually they are busy for a few days. I'll call them later", said Sonakshi. Umair nodded with a smile.

Arsal pulled Zoya in his room by holding her arm. "Yeh kya raita phailaya hain tune?" asked Arsal. "Bhai, I am sorry. I couldn't think any excuse other than this", said Zoya. (What mess did you just create?)
"Ek thappad maarta! Lekin main ladkiyon pe haath nahi uthata, aur mujhe jaidad se bedakhal bhi nahi hona", said Arsal. "Bhai, aap please yeh shaadi se mana kar dijiye", said Zoya. (I would have slapped you but I don't want to be get disowned by Dadujaan, and I don't hit girls... Bhai, please refuse to marry Sona.)
