      Nine weeks later.......................

Karan why do i have to eat a lot of this
tangerines. Seriously am tired of taking this fruits and medications. Complained mahi who was feeling fed up.
'I want to eat spicy curry and rotis, mixed with fried chilly wings. And then i'd eat some ice cream" said Mahi again pushing the bowl of tangerine forward.
"Why will you be dear? tell me. You've got to eat them all so that my granddaughter will grow up quickly. Said mum taking her seat close to mine.
Grand daughter? It's going to be a boy. So a grand son he'll become. Since when did you start for telling what sex the baby is going to be? asked Dad who was looking offended by mum's statement earlier on.
It's definitely going to be a girl. I can feel it. Right dear? Asked mum smiling warmly.
Well actually mum but am afraid it's not just one baby but two said karan scratching his head with a Wide grin on his face.
Two babies chorused mum and dad with their mouth wide open.
How come you didn't tell us about all this earlier Mahi. Asked mum pointing me a deadly glare.
Mum it was a surprise for you all, but now sir know it all has let the cat out of the bag.
I couldn't help it darling. You know am so happy that i can't even sleep with out saying the truth out. Said Karan laughing .
I know what we should start doing devee. I think we should start shopping for the babies clothes suggested dad smiling happily.
Since when did you start acting all planned up about this baby arrival of a thing ? Asked mum with a surprised look on her face.
Since the day i got to know dear said Dad picking up his pen to jot some things down.

Aunt Mahi, aunt Mahi called out pinky running towards me with a lot of treats in her little bag.
Look what i've got here. Today the priest gave me a lot of sweets, so i decided to come share some with you. Look they're all strawberry flavour"
Thank you so much pinky" you sure understand me more than all of them here. Come let's go eat some as well as share it with everyone "

K A R A N P O V :
Seeing both of them so happy made my heart flutter with happiness. Although they both look grown up , they still act like little kids. Dropping the bowl of tangerines Mahi had abandoned i silently crept out not wanting mum and dad to notice my movement.
Reaching for my keys i slowly drove out heading for my office.
Remembering i did not leave a message for Mahi i decided to send her a text.
Getting out of the car i began to type my message.
Suddenly Out of nowhere a girl ran past me crying. She was dressed in a long flowing saree and was heading towards the well across the road. Still looking at her i immediately dropped my phone and decided to see what the problem was. I noticed she was about to jump into the well as she had climbed up already.
STOP! i yelled running to save her from falling. Finally getting hold of her hands i began to pull with all my strength.
'No leave me let me kill myself Leave me please am begging you" she kept on saying.
What were you trying to do miss?. Why do you want to commit suicide huh? Tell me ? I demanded immediately she was safe.
No one cares so why wont i kill myself. My father is going to kill me. Please go away from here and let me kill myself she said trying to jump again.
Catching her immediately i spunned her around until i could see her face clearly.
Are you mad. Why would you want to do something like that. Think of your parents, what do you want them to do after knowing you're gone.
Tell me is committing suicide the answer? Come I'll take you home today i said as i dragged her into my car.
You don't know my father. He'll kill you. Just let me go" she kept on begging. My father is a well respected man and would kill me.
Stop calling death. You're not going to die trust me. I assured her and immediately drove into the massive mansion.
The house was evenly filled with thugs and security men all holding guns and other dangerous device.
Come. No one is going to harm you. Come
***************************************

Where is your daughter woman, how can she run away when her wedding is just two days away. Today i'll put bullets in her head and blow her brains out.
Where is she? Shouted my father pacing back and forth with his gun in his hand.
Stop there, where are you coming from young lady? He asked with a lot of anger in his vioce.
Talk before i blow your brains out he shouted again now pointing the gun towards me.
Namastey greeted the young man who had earlier saved me.
Yes speak. Who are you and what is your business with Mahi.
Mahi i thought within myself as i slowly took a look at the scared young lady shaking next to me.
My name is karan and.......,..
We are in love father. He promised to get married to me father"  she finally blurted out before i could finish my sentence.
Look father he has decided to marry me said Mahi tugging on my shirt for me to say something.
I knew she did it out of despiration. What have i gotten myself into i kept on asking myself.
Taking a look at the hefty men all with dangerous equipment my legs began to  shake and i began to stutter with my words.
You see Mr Kumari i ..i i..
Yes say something. He barked pointing the gun at me.
Yes we're in love i finally said out of fear.
A wide laughter erupts from every corner.
They are inlove and chose to run away together. Said Mr kumari giving me a hug that left me speechless.
Come on son inlaw. Come in said Mr kumari pulling me inside.
Son inlaw. Ooh no what have i done. How am i going to explain all this to Mahi now.
You know a lot of people fear me cause am a powerful man with dignity. You're the first to approach me for my daughters hand in marriage. So from today you're welcome to come anytime you wish
Ganga, Ganga please make sure he gets something to eat i have a meeting with the Indiana's family " said Mr kumari leaving immediately with his best thugs.
