Finally they reached T.K.

As they went inside, as usual Daboo eagerly greeted his Suman di and headed towards the lounge with his small hands in her hands.

Suman.

As we headed inside, my little Daboo was eagerly waiting for us and then we went towards the lounge.

I thought only 2-3 guests will be there for the dinner but to my surprise almost all the Malhotra family was present there, and this time including Ramnath uncle who is generally busy.

After coming out of my shock cum surprise I greeted every one Namaste and this time I and Shravan both gave each other a knowing smile shared a glance. 

But this time he looked a bit nervous.

Maybe something. I thought.

And after that I stood beside Preeti.
________________
Shravan

I'm feeling very nervous. What if she said no to me, what if she first.says yes and then no to me afterwords.
What if..

All this question are running in my head since the night I said yes to my mom for the marriage proposal.

****Flashback****

At that night when Shravan was thinking about the day's meeting and his mother has approached him.

Shravan (sh): Maa, at this time do u want something r u alright?

What happened??

Nirmala (Ni): shh..
If u will stop questioning me like this, than only I can talk to u.

He nodded in approval.

She sat on his bed and tapped her hand on side to signal him to sit beside her.

He sat beside her.

Shravan I want to talk with u on very important topic of your life.

Look beta, now until fully matureed and grown up adult u have a business too, but now it's time u need to think about your personal life as well.

Shravan was trying to take all what his mother was trying to say him.

R u getting what I'm trying to say.?

Ya,ya I'm listening he replied giving his full concentration to his mother.

See,beta I want u to think about your life partner, about your marriage.

As these words just got entertainment in his ears he looked towards his mom's on amusement.

Maa, shaadi aur Mai...
Par..

Dekh beta humne voh Tiwariji ki bachi hain na uska rishta lekar aaye the Panditji.

Hume toh achi lagi, dekhi hui bhi hai.

So should I consider yes from your side.she asked nervously but only wanted yes as an answer

Ok

*******Flashback end*********

I was in my thoughts when again my mom spoke to Tiwariji.

If everybody has comed than shall we start? Nirmala asked Tiwariji.

Ji..ji.. bilkul.

Ji hum aaj hi , baat paki karke roka bhi kar dena chahte hai. Nirmala asked to Tiwariji.

Ji, ab woh toh aapki hi bachi hai jaisa aap thik samjhe.

Thik hai toh phir bula lijiye bitya koh.

Just than Tiwariji looked towards Priya and than towards Suman which made Suman wide her eyes as he signalled him with his hands to come forward.

Me???, she asked in utter shock.

And her Nanu just nodded in reply.
______________________________________

Suman.

No..no..
No...

this was the only word which my mind was screaming with all its energy to think or register anything.

As the last words fell from Nanu's mouth and he looked towards me with the smile at which I'm not allowed to give "no"as an answer, shiver ran down through my spine. My eyes were wide  , I don't know what to say.

And just than another bang to my little mind.
Aunty's words came running to my mind
"Hum rishta paka karne ke saath roka bhi karna chahta hai".

I looked towards my mom, who was having the same shock as me but somewhere she was little relieved that her wish was fulfilled as that can be seen in her little change of expression.

I should have guessed all this, why she was tensed in the car , why my instincts were continuously forcinge to act little lazy and avoid this dinner.

But no, I'm stupid, I chose fun time with Nanu and see his converting fun time to mourning.

Leave all this nonsense what about me, God pls give your presence today pls...

I can't ,pls do some miracle.

Than I finally looked towards the main villain, who now seemed to be little confused.

All this was running in my mind, when Nanu called me and with heavy steps I started moving towards him still looking at my mom to come to my rescue.

To be continued...
