CHAPTER 5
Author's POV:
They both went inside and heard their families talking.
"See , they both came" , Ruhanika said.
Rudra sat in his place and Shivika went towards the kitchen as Aakriti called her.
"I think we should fix the date for their engagement" , Devendra said.
"Haa , why not , why to delay the auspicious work" , Rishiraj replied.
Rudra's POV :
I heard elders talking about our engagement.
"Why to hurry , dada sa" , I said.
"Why do you have any problem , Rudra" , he asked looking at me.
" No dada sa I mean why to make decision in haste and there's so much going on with work and all , I need a little more time before we take this step and I agreed to marry but I didn't said that I will get married right now." , I said last part in a low voice only to him trying to make him understand.
And he looked at me as if thinking about what I said.
"Dada sa , I've made my decision and I won't be changing it" , I said and I could see he is disappointed but I am not changing my decision.
" I think Rudra is right baba sa , he should marry whenever he is ready , we can't force him about this , as you know , he will never change his decision no matter what" , Kaka sa said whispering to dada sa but I heard them both talking as I was sitting beside Kaka sa.
"Okay , as you wish" , he said and nodded. And looked at her father , and her father nervously said listening to all this , " Did we made any mistake , if then forgive us but don't break the marriage , Thakur Sahab", he requested joining his hands afraidly.
"No , Uncle , don't do this" , I said to him. He looked tensed since I said my decision regarding marriage.
"I didn't deny to marry , I just don't want to marry right now" , I said trying to make him understand and then baba sa said to him "Marriage is already fixed Abhijeet ji , you don't worry marriage will definitely happen" , he said assuring him.
"Okay , we understand but I think we should do the engagement" , Suhashini dadi said bit loudly nervously and I can understand she said this to bound me in this relationship. And I have no problem with this.
"I think you are right Suhashini ji' , dada sa said agreeing with her words.
"Rudra , is it okay with you" , he asked looking at me.
I shook my head , and said that it's fine.
"I think we should talk about this with Shivika too" , I said after few seconds.
"Why , she is ready for the marriage and she will definitely agree for the engagement" , she said and I can see that she is trying to hide her nervousness behind her stern voice.
"But , I want to listen this from her" , I said sternly leaving no possibility for any argument.
" Why not , call Shivika bitiya , bhabhi ji", Kaka sa said to her mother , trying to calm the sudden heated environment.
Her mother nodded and went inside the kitchen to call her.
Shivika's POV :
I was listening everything from inside the kitchen and my Mumma came and said to me softly "Beta , come everyone is calling you and tell your decision truthfully , hmm".
I nodded at her smiling a little and we both headed towards living room.
As I reached towards sitting area.
