"What? Are you serious Manky !" Dhriti exclaimed.
"Yupp,Sneha is getting married again" Mayank spoke out.
"To the peepal tree" Dhriti rolled her eyes.
"Yes,my relatives think marrying her to the Peepal tree will ward off the Mangal dosha( Mars Defect in horoscope)" Mayank snorted.
"Marriage with Peepal tree.In which century are we living?" Dhriti spoke out.
"Bauji wants Didi to get married to the nearby Peepal tree and then she wants Sneha didi to get married to someone soon " Mayank replied.
"Mummy this is so wrong! Ask Maasi not to do this stupid thing" Dhriti spoke irritated.
"Shut up! Sneha will have to marry that tree, otherwise omnious things will keep happening, Didn't you see Mausji at hospital? Secondly if she marries the tree then it would not endanger Sneha's husband to be" Dhaani whispered.
"But Mummy, didi should be given more time,Ankit ran away with all money and jewelry.Don't you think now di deserves peace?" Dhriti questioned.
"It took a lot of effort to get Sneha married to Ankit. Your Maasi never revealed that Sneha is a mangali. Already she is 32 and we need to get married again as soon as possible" Dhaani replied.
"But listen..." Dhriti stuttered.
"Don't eat my head go away, after an hour we are taking Sneha to the Peepal tree so many preparations are left just don't waste my time" Dhaani spoke angrily.
"Di? Where are you?" Dhriti searched for Sneha.
"Did you find di?" Dhriti asked Mayank.
"I know where she would be" Mayank replied.
"Old store room! " Dhriti and Mayank spoke in unison.
Sneha hided herself in the old storeroom,the playing bunker for all the cousins.
She sniffed in the corner among the old iron trunks.
"There is a big rat!" Mayank exclaimed entering the store room.
"Chee!" Sneha sprang up in disgusted.
"Mayank there is not rat here! Idiot brother" Sneha replied angrily.
"Didi why are sitting here? Don't harm yourself this time please" Dhriti spoke out with empathy.
"What should do Dhriti? My parents are marrying be to a tree and they will again tie me with someone.Am I cattle? I am tired of all the drama" Sneha wept.
"Sneha get ready!" Gargi showed up in the store room and the trio glared her.
"Buaji she will not get married to the tree" Mayank protested.
"It's for her own good and there is no harm in getting married after all now she is a divorcee as well.Mayank don't be silly now we need to be careful" Gargi dragged Sneha and sushed Mayank and Dhriti.

"Are you insane bro? She is a divorcee" Krish exclaimed.
"What's the big deal if Saumi is a divorcee?" Satish questioned raising a brow.
"It's big deal! You don't know what kind of a woman that her husband left her" Krish replied.
"Saumi's husband cheated on her, not every woman who is a divorcee is at fault for the broken marriage" Satish reasoned.
"Maybe you are right but what if Saumi is cooking up a fake story? Krish spoke out.
"Bro think about yourself and your Virgin Bride" Satish scoffed.
