Dheere Se Kho Gaye!

[29]

Nani had decided to go to Dehradun with Shrinkhal and Ishi to meet Shrinkhal's parents as she thought of not delaying the meeting anymore. Ishi denied that it might be too soon and was hesitant. Shrinkhal is alot more confident and willing to marry Ishi as soon as he could.

Ishi couldn't help but let the things happen now. She may be scared of how things will happen but deep down knew that everything will be fine.

Guru and Alia did a great job in cleaning the whole house. Before Nani, Ishi and Shrinkhal arrived home, Mama-Papa and Dadi were already present in the house.

Ishi happily ran into Dadi's arms, "I missed you, Dadi."

She touched Dadi's feet followed by everyone greeting and meeting each other. This was the first time both the families were together and Ishi could not help but blush the whole time. Shrinkhal was sitting in front of her with her Nani and Ishi was sitting in between Dadi and Maa.

Guru cleared his throat and passed a comment, "Tum dono blush toh aise kar rahe ho jaise pehli baar mile ho.

Dadi? Nani? Main toh kehta hoon sab saath Hain abhi hi Roka kardo dono ka."

Maa agreeingly nodded her head, "Main toh kabse Sinku ko keh rahi hoon Ishi ko Bahu bana lene de mujhe par aaj nahi sunege hum tum dono ki."

Dadi turned towards Nani, "Hume toh Ishi bohot hi zyada pasand hai ab toh aap apni beti mujhe de hi dijiye."

Nani got up, "Ishi chal Beth Sinku ke saath. Main Pooja ka thali lati hoon."

Maa stopped Nani and went to bring everything important for their Shagun. Ishi and Shrinkhal couldn't even say anything but rather kept their heads down.

Guru video-called Ishi's mom and suprised her, "Aunty, I wish aap bhi yahan hote."

"Aunty, aapki tickets book karwa doon?" Alia raised her brow while helping Mama, Dadi and Nani.

"Aaungi beta main bhi jald hi."

Dadi and Nani were talking to eachother standing in the corner. Paa gestured his hand to know what they were talking about. Both smirked while putting wedding bands infront of them.

"Humara toh bas roka hone wala tha na?" Ishi asked being totally confused.

Shrinkhal held her hand and whispered in her ear, "Relax Ishi. Jo bhi ho Raha hai sab acha ho Raha hai aur hoga. I am always there for you."

Ishi always had commitment issues as she didn't want to marry someone who's careless like her father. Deep down Shrinkhal made her overcome this fear but again she is still scared and never wants her insecurities to come to reality.

Shrinkhal held her hand gently with his smiling face and excited to step towards the next step of their lives together. Ishi couldn't help but look into his happily eyes and calmed down. Maa wrapped Ishi in red dupatta and the rituals began.

The whole time Shrinkhal didn't leave her hand which did make her blush really hard as Guru and Alia constantly were teasing them. Both exchanged the wedding bands which made Ishi too emotional. She sobbed silently while feeling the most luckiest girl alive.

As Guru and Alia grabbed their hands to click pictures, shrinkhal took her away into the kitchen just to hold her in his embrace. She broke down and sobbed against his chest. Shrinkhal cupped her face, "mat ro bacha, you know I am feeling so grateful and I want to scream on top of my lungs. I am going to marry my dream girl! What else I want?"

Ishi chuckled and peaked his lips, "I love you Mr. Pati."

"Ooh! Are we officially pati-patni now?"

"Ahan!" Ishi cleaned her face with his shirt and laughed.

Guru and Alia joined them too, "Bhabhi welcome to Bhushan family."

"Jiju welcome to Malik family ab main apko bohot tang karungi."

"Tum vaise hi sabko bohot tang karti ho!" Guru spoke while hiding behind Ishi as Alia advanced to pull his ear.

"That's true!" Ishi agreed.

Guru and Alia were about to start fighting again but Shrinkhal stopped them, "are we going to celebrate or not? It's my big day."

"Hey! It's my big day too, okay?" Ishi crossed her hands over her chest.

"Okay! I'm sorry, biwi ji! Aap jaisa kahengi vaisa hi hoga."

"Abbey saale, shaadi Hui nahi abhi se hi biwi ka gulam ho gaya?" Guru teased him while smirking at Ishi.

Shrinkhal puts his left arm around Guru's neck, "Dekh Bhai! Yeh samjh le ke kuch bhi ho jaye humesha biwi ki side hi Leni chahiye. Hai na? Papa?"

Paa nodded while looking at Maa, "Bilkul sahi beta."

"Toh ab samjh gaya?" Shrinkhal asked him again.

"Yessir!" Guru leaned to touch Ishi's feet.

Ishi pats his back as her and Alia laughed at them. Later, they clicked a few pictures and met some of their closes friends to break the news.
