Aangan Wala Romance

Part 1

Raavi hurriedly took Krish's bag and threw it on his face. She signalled to him to get ready for the drama. Raavi said to Dhara,

Raavi: Dhara di mujhe aur Krish ko na, ek bahut jaroori kaam hai toh hum ussi ke liye college ja rahe hain. Aap chinta mat karo hum ek - do ghante mein waapas aa jayenge. Aap please maa ko sambhal lena. Bye Jai Somnath. Chal Krish

Saying this, Raavi and Krish went out. They picked an auto and went to Janardhan's house to pick Kirti. After picking her up, they went towards the temple.

At Pandya Niwas, everyone were preparing for the lunch. As they all were ready to start, Suman asked,

Suman: Ae Dhara, yeh Markundi gay kaha hai? Dikh nahi rahi?

Dhara: ( smiling) Are maa, woh Krish aur Raavi ko kuch kaam tha College ka, toh woh dono wahi pura karne gaye hai. Thodi der mein aaj jayenge, aap chinta mat karo.

Everyone ignored, and started having their food.

At the temple, Krish and Kirti were taking vows and completing the pheras. Raavi was continuously praying to make everything alright at home when they will tell the truth. After Krish applied the vermilion in her hairline and tied the mangalsutra around her neck the pandit announced,

Panditji: Aaj se aap dono pati patni.

Raavi smiled at them. She was scared about Suman's reaction, but was happy to realise that she made the two souls one who loved each other to the core. She closed her eyes and got ready to face the Pandyas.

As everyone were about to finish their meals, Raavi entered the house, holding Kirti's one hand in her left one, and Krish's hand in her right one. Everyone were shocked to see the three of them. Suman's eyes went wide in shock. She didn't expect her beti jaisi bahu to do this. She was hurted deeply inside. Raavi brought Krish near Kirti and said caressing their cheeks,

Raavi: Tum dono yahi ruko, main pooja ka thaal le kar aati hoon...

Both of them nodded and Raavi smiled. She lowered her gaze and went inside the pooja hall as she couldn't see her Suman maa's hurtful eyes. She started preparing the pooja thaal and started sobbing. She was deeply hurt to hurt Suman, but she didn't had any other option. Shiva was not able to hold himself after seeing his deary wife crying hard and was proceeding, but Suman held his hand with her stick and nodded in a no. Shiva didn't wanted to listen to Suman, but he knew that if he was her son, she was his mother. So he backed off.

Raavi prepared the thaal and the kalash for grah pravesh. She took them and was going towards the couple, when Suman held her stick in her path and Raavi's balance got disturbed. The kalash and the thaal were tossed up in the air and Raavi was about to fall, when she landed up in Krish's arms. Shiva was about to catch her, but seeing her safe in his brother's arms, he stopped in his tracks.

Raavi turned to looked at Suman, just to find Suman's raged - filled hurtful eyes looking intensely at her. She got scared and more tears came out of her eyes. Raavi was about to explain, when Suman held her hand with her stick and pulled Raavi towards herself. Raavi landed in her feet. Suman shouted at her,

Suman: Yeh tune kya kiya, haan?! Tujhe, tujhe yeh shaadi - shaadi khelne mein bahut maza aata hai kya, jo jab chaha mere ek bete ko kidnap karke usse nashe mein dhoot karke usse shaadi karli, ya mere sabse chote bete to jabarjasti se manaa kar uski shaadi uss...uss Tamatar seth ki beti se shaadi karwa di, haan?!

Raavi nodded in a no and started sobbing again. Suman made a boring face and started going, when Raavi held her hand and said,

Raavi: (requesting) Maa...maa please maa, ek baar, sirf ek baar meri baat sunlo, fir aapka jo bhi faisla hoga woh sar-aankho par...
