SADDA HAQ l Season 3

15. the Bridal WELCOME...

"Aao beta. "
RS said as he opened the door of the car for SY. All the boys, friends and family were standing at the main gate of the house. RD got out and held SY's hand.
The house was shining bright in the colourful lighting at evening. The sun was at the edge to go down and the darkness had spreaded it's wings to welcome the moon. The fireworks started suddenly making everyone smile. The friends quickly held the plates full of flowers. They went and stood on the both sides of the way to the main door of the bungalow.

"Chalein Mrs Shekhawat?
Apki official entry karni hai Shekhawat house me.."
RD asked SY in low voice.
She looked at him and smiled. She nodded excitedly. RD smiled back widely at her behaviour.

The newly married couple started walking towards the house. One by one flower pots full of sparkles started cracking. The couple was very happy with the welcome preparations. It was surprise for RD too as he didn't knew about the boys' plan. He had asked them about it but they always ignored the topic. It was not too much and simple. But when it's for SY, simplicity comes first. She was remembering her earlier visits to the house before becoming the official Bahu of the house. Now she was going there like it she owns it. RS as RH were following them. The friends were showing the couple with the tonnes of flowers. And one by one joining the couple as it passed him/her.

Nihiri, Sanaya the housekeeper chacha and his wife were standing at the main door to welcome the bride.
One the couple reached there, the Thaali was handed to the Chachi. She was not ready to take the honour but RS and RD said her so.
She did Tilak of the couple with the eyes full of happy tears. The couple touched her feet and she gave her blessings to them. RS told the Chacha ji to do the Tilak. He did. The couple took his blessings.
He took was crying the happy tears.

"Aaiye Malkin ji. Apne ghar ko ab sambhaliye. Itne saalo se viraan pade is ghar ko apne laxmi ke pairo se aabad kar dijiye. Is ghar ko humesha khushiyon se aur pyar se bhara rakhna beta ji. "
The old man said.

"Bilkul rakhungi chacha ji. Ab mai aa gayi hu na. Abse rona nahi. "
SY replied. The old man nodded.
He handed the thali to RS. He hesitated first but later took it as everyone forced him.
He did the Tilak and gave his blessings.
"Sanyukta beta, tum jaha jati ho bas khushiyan bikherti ho. Sab ko pyar baatti ho aur sab ki bohot care karti ho. Afsos, Renuka ke ye samazne Tak bohot der ho gayi thi lekin mai wo galti nahi karunga. Tumhe Mai wo sab dunga jiski tum haqdaar ho. Kyu ki hum sab ki bighdi zindagiyan tum hi sawar sakti ho.
Tumhara bohot bohot welcome hai beta tumhare ghar me. Is ghar ka, Randhir ka aur apna pura dhyan rakhna.
Aur Randhir beta, Sanyukta fir ek baar tumhari zindagi me ayi hai. Koshish karna ki wo humesha ke liye sath rahe. Tumhe zindagi me to bohot kam pyar mila hai lekin bhagwan kare tumhe itna pyar aur khushiyan mile ki tum tumhare sare dard bhul jao.
Best wishes for the new journey to both of u. "
He said. SY just nodded in his words and smiled. RS hugged RD and the latter reciprocated it.
Then KT did the Tilak of the couple as only she was married among all the friends.
"Ok ok. I know I'm from Sanyu's side but nevermind, RD lacks experienced people for this task so I'm helping him. "
She teasingly said and everyone laughed at that. She hugged both of them in unison and wished them for the happily married life.
Then finally Chachi ji put the Kalash in the door for SY to flip down.
SY did so. Later Chachi put the Kumkum thaal to imprint SY's foot marks on a long while cloth. SY dipped her foots in Kumkum. RD was continuously helding her hand and supporting her. SY held her lehenga up with her another hand and put her first foot on the cloth.
Everyone cheered aloud. Ranjan showered some flowers over her.
She walked on the cloth till it's end and then RD took her to the Pooja area to light the Diya in front of god's idol meanwhile friends settled down in the seating area. The helpers of Chacha ji's family brought drinks for them. They all relaxed and chilled for sometime. The couple quickly joined them.
"Pooja ho gayi beta... Aao baitho. "
RS said.
