Perfect Together :) {COMPLETED}

chipkali

The next day

"Shiva, uth jaa, hum late ho jaayenge puja ke liye! Shiva uth na" Raavi continuously called out to him.

"Kaunsi puja? Sone de na" Shiva murmured, face buried in the pillow.

"Woh puja jiske liye hum ye haveli me aaye hai."

Shiva woke up with a jolt.

"Oh shit! Mai toh bhul hi gaya, lekin mai toh tayyar ho jaunga fatafat, tu apna dekh-" he said, turning towards her.

He just kept looking at her.

Raavi walked by, wearing a pink saree, embroidered with beautiful birds, and had her hair down. She had worn these really pretty bangles, and went to fix her face in the mirror.

" Ye chipkali itni acchi kaise dikh rahi hai? Yea tu kya soch raha hai, tujhe ye chipkali kabse acche lagne lagi. Mami ki behen ki beti bhi na..."

"Aise ghur kyu raha mujhe? Maine kaha tha time se uth jaana lekin tu sunta kaha hai meri." she said, struggling to put on her mangalsutra.

"Meri aankhe, meri marzi, mai kidhar bhi dekhi, tujhe kya hai?" he said, shaking himself out of his thoughts,

"Aur pehle nahi utha sakti thi mujhe, ab der ho jaayegi na hume. Ek kaam dhang se nahi hota tujhse" he retorted and went for a shower.

"Tere liye bed pe ek kurta rakha hai, please pehen lena, sirf puja ke liye" Raavi called out, before he shut the bathroom door. "Pata nahi usne suna bhi hoga ki nahi" she said to herself, still struggling.

Shiva came out wearing his normal t shirt jeans, and put the kurta aside "Nahi pehenunga ye kurta, mere type ka nahi hai. Ae mami ki behen ki beti, ye teri har baat sunne ka theka nahi laga rakha hai maine" he said, walking towards her.

"Ek toh tu kurta pehenne se mana kar raha hai, upar se ye mangalsutra lag bhi nahi raha, kya karu" Raavi said, frustrated. Suddenly Shiva appeared behind her, she half expected him to push her aside beaches usko apne baal set karne the.

"De. Mai laga deta hu" Shiva said, moving her hair aside.

Background song:

Raavi stared at him in the mirror, while his eyes remain concentrated on putting the chain.

He put it on, and noticed her staring at him. They both share a small eyelock

Song ends.

"Ab hatt baju mein. Mujhe tayyar hona hai" Shiva said, rudely.

"Mai itne acche se baat kar rahi hu, aur tu ek mauka nahi chodta meri insult karne ka. Shukar kar, mere mein itni patience hai, warna koi aur hoti, toh tujhe neend me maar deti" Raavi retorted.

"Koi aur hoti hi nahi, kyuki mai shaadi karta hi nahi, woh toh Dhara bhabhi ne mujhse pucha, isliye tujhse-" Shiva started, but stopped abruptly.

"Tu kabhi bolne se pehle sochta hai? Ki tere muh se kya bakwaas nikalti hai?" Raavi looked at him, face fallen, clearly sad.

"Kitni baar yaad dilayega ki tujhe mai pasand nahi hu? Jaanti hu mai, mujhe bhi tu kuch khaas pasand nahi hai, lekin fir bhi-" "AAAAAHHHHHH" She looked behind him, yelled and pulled at Shiva's shirt, hugging him tightly.

"Abe mami ki behen ki beti, kya hua, khud ko aine me dekh ke darr gayi, kaisi chipkali hai tu" Shiva chuckled.

"Shiva bacha mujhe! Waha sachme chipkali hai, mujhe bohot darr lagta hai, please bhaga, please bhaga waha se, Shiva kya kar raha hai, idhar kyu khada hai, nikal na woh chipkali ko, nahi pasand mujhe chipkali" Raavi yelled in one breath, burying her face more in Shiva's chest.

Shiva took one look behind him, and didn't find any lizard on the wall. Then, very softly, her turned her around and shows her "Dekh, nahi hai waha chipkali, darr mat." Slowly, Raavi lifts her head and doesn't find a lizard. "Maine sach me dekha tha waha pe." she wondered.

"Aur, agar waha chipkali hoti bhi, toh mai kaise bhagata, tu toh fevicol jaise chipki hui hai mere se" He laughed.

Raavi found herself, still hugging Shiva, and lets go of him, embarrassed. "Woh, mai... I'm sorry."

"Aise band kamre me ladke ka faayda uthane ki koshish nahi karte." Shiva laughed more.

She slapped his arm, annoyed but also smiling. "Tu haste hue bohot alag lagta hai."

They both look at each other, remembering what happened a mere few minutes ago.

"Ab der nahi ho rahi hai tujhe? Chal na!"
"Chalo!"

At the puja

The pandit made both the newly married couples stand together. They must hold each other's hand and recite a vow. It's a tradition that takes place whenever two people get married, for the peace and harmony of their marriage.

"Ab pati patni ek dusre ka haath pakde, aur mai jaisa bolu, vaisa dohoraaye" the pandit announced.

Rishita and Dev happily held each other's hand, while Shiva and Raavi hesitated a bit.

"Haath toh pakadna padega, par kaise. Maana ki maine decide kiya hai ki iss gawar se ladna nahi hai, par fir bhi...." Raavi thought.

She offered her hand to Shiva, instead of just taking his hand forcefully. He simply stared at her hand and looked away.

Raavi noticed this, and didn't expect him to hold her hand, she lowered it down and moved to pray with folded hands instead, but suddenly felt a firm grasp on her hand.

She looked, and found Shiva holding her hand, still looking away from her.

Background song:

A small smile creeped onto her face. "Chalo at least Shiva ko iss puja ka maan hai" she thought to herself, still smiling.

The couples repeated the verse, and promised to stay by each other, in good times and bad.

Raavi looked at Dev and Rishita, happily reciting the vows, and a small wave of sadness appears on her face, but she brushed it off.

Shiva noticed this, and grasped her hand a little tighter.

Somewhere trying to let her know, that no matter how much he hated her, he will be there for her, always.
