"Warning : Some words may be in loose language"

"We are sorry Janaki ji.. We don't want to take further talk with this alliance.. All the best for your daughter.." Mrs. Khanna said guilty.

"But Mrs. Khanna., What happened suddenly..?? I mean your son said that he likes our ragini yesterday and why this sudden decision of breaking the alliance..?? I hoped an positive reply from your side Mrs.Khanna but.." Janaki stopped on her tracks feeling miserable.

"Excuse me., did i gave you any hopes or did i gave my word about this marriage..?? No right then why are you blaming me..??" Mrs.Khanna blasted taking janaki wrongly.

"I am not saying that you gave me hopes or promised me that my daughter will be your bahu., it's just i expected an positive response from your side and that's it.."Janaki replied explaining her side clearly.

"Anyways., We don't want to take this any further..Thanks for your hospitality.." Mrs.Khanna said bluntly.

"Why are you giving her explanations Sumitra (Mrs.Khanna) ..?? Just tell her that we don't want the girl who is fatherless.." a voice was heard from the back by janaki from the other side.

"I am saying formally bua ji.." Mrs.Khanna said still on phone line with janaki.

"What they are saying janu..?? When they are coming to fix the date for the engagement..??" Janaki's brother shook her from behind but she was not replying anything instead froze on her seat.

"Janu.."he shooked her further bringing his sister out from her daze.

"What did they say..??" Janaki's brother asked in excitement while she blinks blankly.

"Janaki ji.,are you there on line..??"

"Your son would get a better girl..Thank you Mrs.Khanna.." Janaki put down the receiver back with more force., her eyes started tearing up while her brother got confused by her reply.

"Did they rejected our ragini..??" her brother asked.

"Bhaiyya., they rejected our ragu because of shekar.. They said that they don't wanted an fatherless girl as their bahu.." Janaki cried hugging her brother.
