तरसती नज़रो ने हर पल आपको ऐसे मांगा
जैसे हर अमावस में चांद मांगा
रूठ गया वो खुदा भी हमसे
जब हमने अपनी हर दुआ में आपको मांगा ।

AVIRAJ SINGH RATHOR'S POV

When I woke up early in the morning, I saw Khushi sleeping with her head on my chest and looking very ravishing. These hands full of mehndi look good on her, even when we got married, there was mehndi on these hands but Khushi's face did not have the glow that it has today. I happily bit behind her ears because it was disturbing her sleep but she buried her face in my chest and whined like a child. I looked at the time and saw it was only 4 o'clock so I went to sleep again.

Only one day has passed and my wife has already forgotten that she has a husband, when I opened my eyes again in the morning, I saw that Khushi was not on the bed. Since morning all these ladies are busy in work and rituals, forgetting their husbands, yes I am not alone because all my cousins are also with me. And we're just talking about random topics in which, I am least interested.

"To bachelor party kaha ho rhe hai? kya intzaam hai, vipin." (So where is the bachelor party happening? What arrangements have you made, Vipin?) asked Rohit, my cousin

"Kuch nhi bhai, bas drinks apne farm house par. isse jyada kuch bhe nhi." (Nothing brother, just have a drink at our farm house. Nothing more than that.)  Vipin said with a sigh

"Par kyu? bina ladkiyo ke party me maja kese ayega?" (But why? How will the party be fun if you don't invite girls?)  Aman, another cousin of mine asked disappointingly.

"Bhai, agar kavya ko pata chal gya na to vo mujhe jaan se maar dege, aur fir na hee bachelor party hogi aur na hee shaadi." (Brother, if Kavya comes to know about it, she will kill me, and then there will be no bachelor and no marriage.) Vipin understood Aman while hiding his fear. I was not interested in anything because my only focus was on my wife who was not even looking at me for a glance and busy in her word while talking with others.

"Bhai bhai." Hearing Ayaan's voice, my attention shifted from khushi and came back to my cousins. I raised one eyebrow and looked at them but they all just smirked and looked at me. If they think this might tease me, they are wrong. I roll my eyes at them

"Bhai, mere taraf to aapne kabhi ese pyaar see nhi dekha, mujhe to sirf apni ankho se daraya hai aapne." (you have never looked at me with so much love. You have scared me only with these eyes.) Ayaan said complainingly.

"Vo mere biwi hai ayaan tum nhi. haak hai mera uspar aur sirf uspar." (She is my wife, not you, Ayaan. I have the right on her and only her.) I said this and murmur last part while came to my room to catch a glimpse of my wife.

__________

When I came to my room, there was no one there but the sound of water was coming from the washroom, which means Khushi must be taking a bath. I sat on the bed and started waiting for her. Just then Sanyukta came there with some clothes and kept them on the bed. And she looked at me and said

"Bhai, you are here. nani is calling you."

"Hmm, I will leave in a little while." I said with a sigh.

"Go now bhai, otherwise mom will come here to call you." She placed one hand on her hip and stared at me.

"Okay, let's go." I said coming out of the room with her.
