Yogi's Pari

Yogi says no

It was a completely silent environment in the Srivastava house.

No one could believe what happened.

Prakash said yes to Yogi's marriage with Gunjan? That too without even asking Yogi?

And now he was refusing to acknowledge the love of Yogi and Pari.

To fulfill his own promise.

This was outrageous.

"Pari. I suggest you go now. You need to understand. Yogi was in love with Gunjan and he will be happy", Prakash said.

Khushi angrily explained with sign language what he said to her brother Yogi who ended up glaring at his father.

A teary eyed Pari nodded, knowing she was probably being a hurdle and she wanted Yogi and Gunjan together, didn't she?

She turned around to go and pack her stuff. To leave forever as she tried to control her cries.

But she stopped when she felt a tug. Her hand was held by someone and she very well recognised that touch.

The warm touch that was enough to create havoc in her heart.

She tried to take it off but it just firmed.

She turned around and Yogi was staring at her intensely. He pulled her and now pushed her towards himself.

She dashed into him, her hands landed on his torso and his arm wrapped around her waist. And he just held on, tightly. To never let her go.

She stared shocked at him, looking to see amused, happy gazes from the family and angered gaze from his father.

"Bhai is saying he won't marry Gunjan", Khushi said reading the signs, Yogi used.

Pari gulped harshly seeing the furious gaze of Yogi's father being fixed on her and she whimpered. Yogi saw this and hid her face in his chest, now looking eye to eye to his father.

"Yogi is saying he loves Pari and he can't imagine his life without her. He would marry her and only her", Kabir, his brother declared proudly.

"Yogi!" Prakash scolded loudly.

"Yogi is saying that you can't make decisions for his life. Whom he would marry is his decision which greatly concerns his life and only he will make that", his mother, Kusum said sternly facing Prakash.

"Yogi. Let it be. Don't fight with your father. Listen", Pari urged but quietened seeing Yogi glaring at her now.

He again turned his gaze to his father.

"Yogi is saying that Gunjan's father insulted them, made him feel small because of his disability when he on his own went forward with this alliance and then broke it suddenly", His bhabhi, Rani said.

"Yogi is saying that he could have shared his concern earlier but he made a mockery of us and went joyfully forward on his own. Not only did he move on sooner, he also got the police to take him back home and that is just heights", His other bhabhi, Nisha said.

"Yogi is saying that he found a better alliance, he thought that boy was better because he could speak, he could hear, but as soon as he got to know about the reason and that his daughter was just being used, he eagerly agreed for this alliance. Why? Is Yogi perfect for his daughter now? Or now he can speak or hear?" His brother, Vivek said.

"Bhai is saying that Pari accepted him as he was", Khushi smiled and all others did as well but Prakash kept glaring. Pari was in tears. "Made him feel happy. Was there to wipe his tears. Unlike Gunjan, fought with her parents over their love and promised to be with him, didn't make him feel any less because of his disability and that is what is true love", she added.

"Yogi is saying that he wouldn't leave Pari for anyone. He would marry her. He won't form any relation with the family who betrayed them, made them cry tears for days, humiliated them. While Pari became a part of them without any expectations. She learnt to communicate with Yogi with same love like his family and two best friends. She learnt to live like them and that is what matters", his grandmother said smiling fondly at Pari who was overwhelmed.

"Yogi! Understand. I know how you are feeling but didn't you love Gunjan? Shiv realised his mistake. He was on bed after heart attack. And what fault does poor Gunjan have in this? She didn't even know that her father did that. You need to understand. You will be happy. Let Pari go and marry Gunjan. I promised Shiv", Prakash insisted.

Yogi turned to Pari. 'Stay here' he instructed firmly in sign language and Pari nodded.

Yogi went closer to his father.

"Gunjan wasn't innocent either. She could have spoken up. She let her father do what he wanted and that's where she lost the battle. If she couldn't take stand now, she won't take it later as well. It was her father again who agreed for our marriage. It was her father who broke it. She has no control over her life. In fact, she happily moved on as well. Is this love? If the message was not send by her, she could have replied back, done something to solve the misunderstanding but she remained showing herself as helpless when her mother and brother both supported her and were ready to help her. She got engaged, no matter for what reason but she did. On the day of marriage, you asked me if I would choose family or love, you urged me to forget Gunjan and I did. And now you are doing this? You told me your son isn't that worthless that you will ask for his marriage is begging. But you agreed for this marriage without asking me, your son, with the same man who belittled me. You made me feel so low in my eyes. Am I worthless now that you didn't even care to consult me? You care about Gunjan but you don't care about your son who has feelings for someone else. Who got felt so good by someone else and wants to marry her. Won't you want your son with a girl who accepts him wholeheartedly rather than a girl who couldn't even be with him? And how can you take decisions for my life?" His grandfather translated in a stern and proud voice, feeling pride over his grandson.

"I can take decisions for your life. I am your father", Prakash said.

"No", all said in chorus as Yogi furiously shook his head, saying no in sign language.

"I won't marry Gunjan. It's a no!" Khushi said happily from her brother's side.

Yogi didn't say anything further. He turned around, held a sobbing Pari's hand and took her to his room upstairs.
