Irresistible

59. SHO waale & SI waale

Karishma bit her lip looking at the Bhaukal Singh she'd written on her fiancee's hand. It was crooked but Haseena's smile was priceless. She admired the two words with glistening eyes and finally looked up at Karishma who was already looking at her. It was as if Karishma could read her mind for she felt her closing the gap between them very slowly and as if asking her permission passed with a few inches between their lips. Haseena smirked at the challenge and closed the gap relishing the sweet feel of Karishma's lips on hers which never failed to evoke butterflies in her stomach. The sparks never died down in spite of the many kisses they'd shared.

Karishma shifted, sitting on Haseena's lap putting her hands around Haseena's neck, her mehendi already partially dry, she didn't want to smudge Haseena's mehendi.

 Karishma was intentionally slow, enjoying the way Haseena was taking the lead. After all, she had upset her better half so she readily accepted defeat to Haseena's attack on her lips. They were so lost in the moment that even the knock on the door went unnoticed and when Ammi entered the hallway, that went unnoticed too.

"YA ALLAH!" Ammi screamed. Karishma separated from Haseena but Haseena intentionally held onto her waist making it difficult for her to get up. Karishma threw her a glare and Haseena smiled sheepishly. "DHO DINN! DHO DINN RAHA NAHI GAYA. Kaise besharam log hai donon ke donon. Abhi batate hai." With that she started towards Karishma and Karishma of course ran like a kid with Haseena's laughter echoing in the house. Despite the initial shyness, she was after all kissing a person who she is going to be calling her wife in a couple of days.  Karishma now stood on the sofa defending herself meekly.

"Ammi nahi aapki bahu ki mehendi karaab ho jayegi na." Karishma whined.

"Jab humari beti ko kiss rahi thi tab hi sochna tha na ki mehendi karaab ho jayegi." Answered Ammi with anger that Haseena understood to be fake. She laughed yet again when Karishma scooped her lehenga jumped over the carpet avoiding Ammi's direction and kissed Haseena on her cheek before running outside.

"KAL MILTE HAI AMMI." She shouted delightfully.

Noor looked at Haseena and they both ended up laughing out loud for minutes together.

"Bichari Karishma kyun tang karti hai aap Ammi unhe." Haseena said in between her laughter.

"Haan toh. Saas hai hum aapki Karishma ke. Aise hi control mein rakhna padta hai." Noor said with an adorable giggle and Haseena shook her head dismissing Ammi's child-like behaviour. She very well knew how inseparable her mother and her wife were. In fact she was expecting them to gang up against her after they were wedded, given their similar thought process and mutual love. Ya Allah madadh.

"Pushpee ek doubt hai." Santosh said. She seemed to be in deep thought but Pushpa ji was busy with the step she was rehearsing.

"Pushpee iss shaadi mein jhoota kiski chupani hai?" Santosh asked.

"I Billu the spy donon ka jhoota chori karunga. Taaki double the paisa milein." Billu said and that excited Santosh. They both exited the hall planning on how to execute the 'jhoota chori' away from the crowd. Yes crowd.

The two houses were bustling with people. Pushpa ji had taken it upon herself to provoke the 'SHO waale' yeah they had agreed that instead of the usual ladka waale and ladki waale they'd be teamed as SHO waale and SI waale to differentiate between each other, ah yes  back to Pushpa ji who had taken it upon herself to provoke the SHO waale of how the SI waale were to win the Sangeet happening tomorrow. The SHO waale had no less people who had taken the challenge to their heart. And hence the two houses were now no less than a circus of people shouting random ideas on how to best the opposite team or Pushpa ji's sudden 'Abhinethr' steps. Karishma has remained silent and allowed everything. She was happy. Despite the stupidity of the whole sangeet win or loss, she was happy that her mother was enjoying her wedding to the fullest and she didn't want to be the kill sport and nor did Haseena. Noor was finally getting what she wanted and Haseena knew better than to be a spoil sport.
