" I know you're not this kind of the girl. Then why are you doing this, you don't have to. If this marriage is forced, back off now , I assure you I will stand by you " whispered Anurag softly but Prerna did not reply anything. She refused to met his eyes and looked away from him.
Anurag was surprised with her actions. Prerna was not a gold digger , this was something he knew from the starting. She had dreams about love then why was she destroying it by getting married to his mama ji?. He was puzzled.
" why is pree getting married to this old man? " he heard anjali asking Suman.
" you're best friend is tired of her middle class life so she took this shortcut " suman replied rudely.
" I don't believe. I know pree she can't agree this with her complete sense. She can't marry this pervert ,the way he was touching her in the occasion of Pooja " anjali spoke only to be ignored by Suman who cared less about her words. Anurag grew more suspicious.
He looked on as anjali went to Prerna and tried to argue with her about the issue and Prerna refusing her firmly. What had gotten inside this girl. He felt like knocking senses in her. Why is she hell bent on destroying her own life ?. He tried to enquire with his mother who evaded him from further enquiry. This mother was almost in the verge of convincing him that Prerna was a gold digger but he knew better.
The moment of fury came when he saw his mama ji trying to have his way with prerna while dancing with her. Prerna was feeling humiliated and tried to get away but Naveen was holding her tightly. Anurag tried to control, he did not want to create a drama in front of everyone and then when his mamaji wrapped his hands around Prerna's waist and was leaning in. Anurag gave away his self resistance and the next moment his mamaji was pushed away from Prerna and he stood in front of prerna. Prerna was confused with the happening and stood here not able to comprehend anything.
All the guests gasped at the happenings,
" Anurag " his mamaji yelled at him.
" mamaji stay away from my prerna. How dare you touch her? I love her and she is only mine "
" what ?" prerna shrieked. Even anjali gasped at happening.
" Anurag what rubbish are you speaking? " his mother looked frightened.
" mom I love her, even she does. We had a fight few days ago, she was very angry with me but I never knew in her foolishness she would tell yes to mama ji. If I knew mamaji was getting engaged to prerna I would never let this function take place. I love her from all this years " Anurag confessed. He pulled Prerna his side shocking everyone. His mother almost got a heart attack seeing it.
His father seemed happy and had announced Prerna and Anurag's marriage . The guests left the hall as the function was called off. Naveen was pissed off and angry on Anurag.
" didi you promised me that Prerna will be mine " Naveen reminded mohini of her promise.
" mom I'm not letting Prerna walk away from my life at any cost and you mamaji stay away from prerna otherwise I will forget my
limits " Anurag warned firmly as he dragged a confused prerna to his room without caring about anyone present here.
Mohini basu knew as she watched her son drag the girl protecting her from her jerk brother that she was going to be her daughter in law and if she did not accept this fact she would end up losing her son.
Anurag left Prerna's hand as he entered his room.
" Anurag what did you do? " prerna started as soon as he shut the door.
" saved you from hell " he answered back.
" you just announced to the whole family that you love me so that you can stop me from marrying Naveen babu. Have you gone mad? You know the drama you have done today in front of people, what people could have thought of me? " Prerna yelled at him.
Anurag's eyes began to flare up with anger " when you were sitting with my divorced mamaji down as his to be bride, that time did you think what would have people assumed about you? Now when I am trying to get you out of this, you're worried about people?"
" Anurag I was willingly marrying your mamaji " Prerna confessed.
" you were willing to put yourself in hell because of 15 lakhs? Your family's one debt will not be paid by your soul Prerna, you deserve better than this "
" you know " she asked.
" I know " he answered confirming her doubts.
He took out the cheque from his pocket which had fallen down while she was busy dancing with Naveen. One look at the cheque , Anurag had understood the whole conspiracy.
" why ? " she asked him. Why did he save her risking everyone's trust and going against everyone.
" you wished for someone who would love you deeply. I really wanted you to find that someone. I still hope that you will find that someone Prerna. You don't have to worry, I'm here for you. I will request my father to postpone our marriage for two more years still our education gets over. We will find a way to earn that fifteen lakhs in two years and clear the
debt. You don't have to be caged in anything which you don't believe. We will find a way " he assured her.
Prerna was touched by his words.
How can Anurag be the nephew of someone like Naveen?
" Thank you Anurag. Thank you for everything " prerna finally smiled after a long time.
" I'm not so filmy but there is no sorry and thank you in friendship for me. So I'm rejecting your sorry and we have to go down now as our family members will be wondering that what is taking us so long " Prerna was tensed hearing it. She was afraid of the family's reaction. As if Anurag understood her turmoil he gently entwined his fingers into hers and spoke " I'm here ". Prerna nodded her head and walked out of the room with him to face the family. She knew this time she would not have to be afraid, Anurag was there with her. She felt peace with the thought of Anurag being with her.
