Shaadi ki tayyariyan

Devaki's POV
I laid on the bed and shut my eyes. After some minutes I turned to my left handside.

"Devaki?" Siddharth said. "Hmm?"
"Devaki!! Ankhe kholo na! Mujhe neend nhi aa rhi!" He said. I opened my eyes. He was looking at me. "Koshish to kijie...mujhe boht neend aa rhi h, mujhe sone dijiye" I said. He rolled his eyes. "Ham dono yaha ek saath lete hue h, itna accha mausam h, aasman dekho kitna accha h! Aur tumhe sone ki padi h? Thora romantic holo yaar" He said. I chuckled.

"Aap to hamesha se hi flirty rhe ho to romance ki ABC to aapko acche se aati hogi, aap hi start kijie na" I said. He smiled. "Haan haan, tum to bacchi ho na?" He said holding my hand. "Ehmm, esi baat nhi h...me to...bas...I mean..." I didn't know what to say. I was actually feeling a bit nervous. "To kesi baat h? Hmm? Bolo na!" He said getting close to me. I bit my lower lip.

"Dekho, kitni nervous ho! Kitna sharmaa rhi ho! Abhi to mene tumhe theek se touch bhi nhi kiya! Shaadi k baad kya hoga?" He asked. I smiled and blushed. My gaze wasn't meeting his. "Are, ab meri aankho me to dekho!" He said. I slightly looked up, in his eyes.

I was nervous as hell! I wanted to push him away, but at the same time, I wanted him to be close to me.

"Umm, I think ab hame sona chahiye. Raat kaafi ho gey h" I said. He shook his head. "Sone se pehle in soft aur red cheeks pe kiss to banti h" He said. I widened my eyes. He placed his hand on my eyes and I shut them. He removed his hand and got close to me. My heartbeat was raising as he was getting close to me. Finally I felt his lips touching my cheeck. Those soft and hot lips sent shivers all over my body. "Goodnight" He wispered. I didn't reply. I wasn't in that state actually, and even he knew that. I opened my eyes and he was already on his bed. We smiled at each other and fall asleep.

Sumedh's POV
Champ wasn't sleeping. He asked Bandana to place her hand on his stomach and I was tapping on his chest to make him sleep. Finally he fall asleep.

I continued tapping, this time on Bandana's hand. She tried to take it away from there but I held it. "Kya kar rhi ho? Bechara fir se uth jaega!" I whispered. She rolled her eyes and placed her hand on Champ's stomach. I smirked and continued tapping.
I fall asleep.

I was sleeping peacefully when suddenly I heard Bandana's voice, like she said something loudly. My hand was on her hand, so when she moved it, I also woke up.

We sat on the bed. She was looking nervous. Maybe she had a nightmare. "Bandana kya hua? Thik ho na tum? Koi bura sapna dekha kya?" I asked. "Sir...woh...mene dekha...woh aapko...nhi...Sir aap thik...thik ho na?" She asked. "Haan me thik hu, dekho kucch nhi hua mujhe...lagta h koi bura sapna dekha tumne. Koi baat nhi, chalo so jao, kucch nhi hua" I said as I placed my hand on her shoulder.

"Nhi Sir...woh nhi chodenghe aapko...aap please..." She was saying. I wanted to explain that everything was alright but she wasn't in the right state. I just made her lay. I held her hand and caressed her hair. She was saying something which wasn't really clear; in short time she fall asleep. It was 2 o'clock. Even I slept.

Bandana's POV
I woke up when I felt the hotness of the sun. I wanted to rub my eyes but I felt like someone was holding my head. I looked at Sumedh Sir, he was holding my hand. Champ wasn't there; maybe he woke up and got ready for school.

I tried to remember what happend during the night. "How dumb!" I thought and slapped my forehead. This is the reason why I hate nightmares! They scare you in the night and when you wake up, you feel so dumb because you believed them!

"Esa kabhi nhi hoga! Mummy-Papa esa kabhi nhi krenghe. Aur rhi baat Sumedh Sir ki to meri naa ki wajah se yeh bhi jaldi mujhe bhool jaenghe" I thought. I called Devaki, and she woke up. Shortly, everyone woke up. We went downstairs and got fresh. It was already 9 o'clock.

Mami gave us chai and some snacks. "Chal Bandana jaldi kar, shaadi ki tayaariya aaj se shuru ho rhi h. Boht kaam h" She said. I nodded. We had our breakfast.

"Ham yaha kya krenghe, tumhari help kar dete h" Devaki said. I nodded. "Shaadi k sabhi kaam 'Santo ki jagah' par honghe" I said. "What's that?" Siddharth Sir asked. "Pind me ek jagah h, kaha jaata h k waha pe Sant aate the aur saadhna karte the, tabhi se us jagah ka naam Santo ki jagah, ya sirf Jagah, rakh liya gaya" I explained. I took them there.

"Abhi yaha laddoo baneghe, shyam ko Gurudware me chai-pakore ka langar h to waha k lie pakore talne h" I explained. "Me aur Devaki laddoo bnate h" Siddharth Sir said. I nodded. Sumedh Sir and I went to the other side of the Jagah, to prepare the ingredients for pakore.

"Yeh lijie, lagte h kaam pe" I said as I gave him a knife. We sat on the ground and I opened a bag of onions and one of potatoes. "Itne saare???" Sir asked shockingly. "Pind k lie langar lgana h sirf chaar logo k lie nhi!" I said. He chuckled. We started chopping onions. It wasn't something new for me, but Sir was a newcomer I guess. He was literally crying. I was controlling my laughter. He looked at me. "Control krne ki kya zarurat h? Haslo!! Nhi haslo tum!!" He finally said. I burst in a laughter. I was trying to stop but it was impossible. He was looking really cute when he was wiping his tears.

"Sir aap rehne dijie, me karlunghi" I said. He shook his head. "Jeeee nhi!! Me tumhe yaha ese hi akele chodke nhi jaunga! Aur vese bhi, abhi to agle saat janam tumhare saath bitane h, abhi kese chod du?" He said. I listened to him carefully. When he finished, I just wanted to hug him tightly and say that 'I love you so much'!! I wanted to tell him how much I loved him, how much I cared about him...he was everything to me, and at the same time nothing...

Siddharth's POV
Devaki and I sat on the ground, infront of the big food container that had the mixture for ladoos. We just had to make the round shape.

We were making laddoos from the past two hours. I was hell tired so I had an idea to tease Devaki. She put her hand in the food container to take some mixture and then I held her hand. She shook her hand but I wasn't leaving it. She looked at me making a puppy face. I smirked.

"Please..." She said in a sweet voice. "Aww, haath chudvana h?" I asked being as sweet as possible. She nodded innocently. "To baby khud hi chudvalo" I said.

She tried again but I wasn't leaving it. "Siddharth yaha sab aate jaate rehte h...koi aa jaega, chodiye na!" Devaki said. I shook my head. Suddenly Bandana's Mami came. "Lao bhai me help kar du laddoo bnane me" She said. I immediately left Devaki's hand, like I got an electricity shock. Devaki controlled her laughter.

Mami helped us and we finally finished. "Ise kitchen me leke jaana h" Mami said pointing towards the food container. Devaki and I looked at each other as it contained more than a thousand laddoos.

But still, we were strong enough to lift the food container, and put it in the kitchen. When Devaki lifted it up, I looked at her arms. I was surprised by her biceps...they were actually well built.

"Devaki, tumhare biceps to..." I said as we put the food contaired down. "Thanks...cricket training ki wajah se h" She said. I smiled and nodded. We went back home. We had some rest.

Sumedh's POV
Bandana and I were chopping onions and potatoes from almost three hours.

"Ho gaya!! Finally! Ghar chale?" I asked as soon as we finished. "Ghar? Abhi kaha? Abhi to pakore talne h fir chai bneghi, fir langar lgega, ham langar parosenghe...fir ham ghar jaenghe" She said. I was looking at her with widened eyes and opened mouth.

We got up and prepared the mixture. Then we started frying pakoras. "Sir, aap waha jaake beth jaiye. Tel boht garam h, kahi aapko lag na jae...aur yaha garmi bhi boht h, waha fan k paase chale jaiye" Bandana said. I smiled.
