Hukum sa little obsession

Mausi ji

As the early morning light filtered through the windows, Aryan was sitting in the living room, enjoying the quiet of the house. He was lost in his thoughts when suddenly, a voice he dreaded hearing broke the silence.**"Arey, sab kahaan hai?"** a woman's voice called out, echoing through the hall.Aryan's eyes widened in horror. **"Shit, abhi main iske liye tayar nahi tha,"** he muttered under his breath, realizing who it was. Without a second thought, he bolted upstairs, his heart pounding in his chest. But in his haste, he stumbled over his own feet. **"Ahh, fuck! Mera pair... aur meri footi kismat!"** he cursed, wincing in pain as he continued his frantic escape.Before he could make it to safety, the dreaded voice called out again, this time closer. **"Arey, Aryan beta!"**Aryan froze on the stairs, his heart sinking. There was no escape now. He plastered a strained smile on his face and turned around slowly. **"Khamma Ghani, Mausi ji,"** he greeted, trying to sound cheerful despite his inner turmoil.Standing before him, in all her imposing glory, was none other than **Rajeshwari Devi,** the formidable mausi ji of the Rathore family. She was known for her sharp tongue and unwavering discipline, a force to be reckoned with.Aryan sighed inwardly. **"Shit, agar yeh yahan hai toh iska matlab... unke bahut pyaare bache aur patidev bhi yahin honge,"** he whispered to himself, dreading the inevitable chaos that was sure to follow with her entire family in tow.As Aryan was still processing the sudden appearance of Rajeshwari Devi, he heard a voice that made him cringe. **"Hiiii Aryannnnn,"** the overly sweet voice called out, none other than the daughter of his mausi ji, **Priya Shekhawat.** Priya was notorious in the family, more interested in makeup and boys than anything else, and Aryan knew all too well what her arrival meant—trouble.**"Hi Priya,"** Aryan replied, forcing a smile while inwardly praying for his mother to come and save him from the impending ordeal.As if on cue, they heard footsteps approaching. Aryan felt a wave of relief, thinking it was his mother, but his relief was short-lived. Instead of his mother, it was Shivendra and Akshay, deep in conversation about business matters.**"Hi Shivvvv!"** Priya squealed in a pitch that could only be described as noise pollution. Aryan winced, and even Akshay and Shivendra seemed momentarily taken aback by the high-pitched greeting.**"Khamma Ghani, Mausi Sa,"** both Akshay and Shivendra greeted politely, their voices calm and respectful.**"Ghanni Khamma, Shiv and Akshay,"** Priya replied, her voice laced with a flirtatious tone that made Aryan want to disappear.But Shivendra, ever composed, didn't miss a beat. **"Priya, mera naam Shivendra hai,"** he corrected her with a cold, firm voice, clearly uninterested in her antics.Rajeshwari Devi, ever the meddler, jumped in with a smirk. **"Aree Shivendra, itni bhi kya baat hai? Shaadi to tum dono ko hi karni hai, toh thoda sa khush raho."** (Oh come on, Shivendra, why so serious? After all, you two are the ones who are going to get married, so cheer up a bit.)Aryan, who had been silently fuming, seized the moment. **"Mausi ji, shayad aapko malum nahi hai par mere bhai sa ki shaadi kisike ke saath hone waali hai,"** he interjected, his tone dripping with sarcasm and a hint of satisfaction. (Mausi ji, perhaps you're unaware, but my brother's marriage is already arranged with someone else.)The room fell silent for a moment as Rajeshwari Devi processed Aryan's words. Priya's face fell slightly, though she tried to mask her disappointment. Shivendra, meanwhile, kept his gaze locked on Aryan, a silent thank you for stepping in.**"Haan, Mausi ji,"** Shivendra added, his voice steady and clear. **"Meri shaadi sirf usse hogi jise main dil se chahta hoon, aur wo tay ho chuka hai."** (Yes, Mausi ji, I will marry only the one I love, and that has already been decided.)Rajeshwari Devi, realizing the situation, tried to save face with a laugh. **"Aree, hum to bas mazak kar rahe the,"** she said, though the forced smile on her face showed she wasn't entirely pleased with the turn of events. (Oh, we were just joking.)Priya, however, was less adept at hiding her displeasure. She pouted slightly, her eyes narrowing at Aryan, who just shrugged in response. Akshay, sensing the tension, quickly changed the subject to business again, drawing Shivendra away from the uncomfortable encounter.As Shivendra and Akshay walked off, Aryan couldn't help but feel a sense of victory. Priya's plan had backfired, and for once, he felt like he had won a small battle in the ongoing war with his mausi ji's daughter.
