XXXXXXXXXXXX


The dinner was completed and all were eating their dessert silently. Meanwhile Zain gathered his courage to finally speak up. After all he has to confess as soon as possible before leaving to Mumbai.

"Ammi Abbu I want to share something with u all." Zain spoke up while 4 pair of eyes shot up to look at him with a tint of question mark.

"Kya baat hai beta" Zain's mom shot up with question with a pool of Concern evident in her voice, while Zain looked at his bhaijaan. He was gaining confidence a little and he proceeded.

"Mom u all guys know how serious I mean about relationships" Zain said each and every word slow enough for everyone to follow. All except Inaayu who was busy with her chocolate ice cream were paying attention to his words.

"And I have finally made a decision about it." He made a stern face suiting his tone seeing his audience attentive.

"And what is that" it was Zain's papa this time.

"Dad I am in love" Zain replied softly to his question. Now everyone made a serious face. Spoons drop over the cup and heads straight angling Zain. The whole room was silent except the crinkling noise inayu was making in the process of attacking her ice cream not paying heed to anyone. Now they all waited for Zain to speak further.

"Mom dad bhai" he said looking at each one of them while Zain's bhabhi squeezed his hands asking him to proceed further. All noticed it. Zain blinked while she assured. He kind of gained a confidence to speak up.

"Zain we all know how serious the matter is. So kindly speak up. Ur silence is increasing an unwanted tension." Zain's dad spoke in a stern tone yet calmer. All were desperate to know who she is.

"Mom me and aditi love each other" he finally spoke up while the reaction in their face was still same.

"Ohkay. We kind of expected this coming Zain. We all were well aware of adiza" it was bhai who spoke up this time. Zain understood what they meant. After all nothing was hidden in the eyes of media and fandom no matter how much they try to act cool.

"So is that about marriage u are speaking Zain. If it is then it would be better if we parents decide it. Only when Aditi's parents are aware of it the discussion might start at any point" Zain's mom again spoke up. They were no more an orthodox middle class family to keep religion and caste as problem for marriage. Yet they wanted active involvement of two families for that.

"Mom it is not about marriage" it was Zain again. Meanwhile Zain's bhabhi went to fetch water from inside.

"We are ummm....... thinking of live-in sort" Zain completed seeing their confused face.

This was completely unexpected for anyone present here. Zain's bhabhi who was aware of the confession passed the glass of water which everyone grabbed without objection. They all needed it. Drifted in a pool of thoughts each drop of water engulfed their now frequently drying throat.

Zain's eyes were constantly travelling like a Bermuda triangle over the three faces which were showing different sort of expressions.

"Live-in hi kyu Zain. Why not marriage when u both are into it" bhaiya again was up with his mature questions. They all were confused with what Zain said. A man who believes in marrying the person whom he may fall love was now speaking about live-in.

"I can understand Ur doubts bhaiya. But trust me. This is the way it should work." Zain assured.

None in the dining table understood. All were staring at Zain with a puzzled look.

"Ammi Abbu u guys remember how u opposed me going to Mumbai to try on acting. That day also I was right on choosing my career. But dad Mumbai thought me a lot of things. The way people were not providing flat for me just for my name. Just for me being a Muslim affected them so much that they were raising their fingers upon me. But then once after I became famous and successful in my career the respect automatically built in. this was something I earned mom. Now from the position I am I don't want to be in a questioning society. I and aditi has plenty of haters who are like mushrooms found in new rains. They start to blabber to each and every step we take. It's not that I pay heeds to their foolishness. But I want to shut their mouth further. For that I want us to reach a position where we would get normal people to react normally for our marriage. For that position we have to still achieve many. And trust me mom, this will set ok soon and we both will get married. So till then we wanted to stay together. That's why we have chosen to live-in. when we marry we should be in that height that no more their chaos will reach us" Zain said a lot but all still had confusion plastered on their face. But smiled a little about how thoughtful Zain is.

"Are u sure aditi" this was the umpteenth time Aditi's mom was asking her regarding the live-in decision. Aditi's father didn't give any expression to imprint his thoughts.

"Mom. This is the right thing. Trust me mom. "Aditi blinked while her mom was about to oppose while her father stopped her.

"We didn't support u initially when u wanted to become an actress bachi. But now u proved us that it was the best decision in Ur life aditi. The decision which bought smile in my daughter's life. And today in this decision of yours u have Ur father along with u. Just promise me that if u have any problem over there u should let us know. At the end of the day all I wanted is my child's happiness." Her father made an honest confession making aditi release her breathes which she was holding for god knows how long.

Her eyes gave tears of joy just in a thought that her parents accepted. This is the first time she has got permission from her family and she was overwhelmed in joy. All thanks to Zain who insisted to get each other families permission before starting it.

"But I will decide only after speaking to her" replied Zain's mom to which he sheepishly smiled. Just now he hugged his family for the acceptance of his relationship and now his mother was proposing this cute demand in the most childish manner.

"Haan ammi I will call her right now" Zain replied and started to walk away.

"Aree don't ask him to phone ammi then we would never get the chance to speak" Zain's bhabhi teased to which he once again delivered his blushy smile as she has encountered this scene before also while she caught Zain red handedly while he was making love talks with his teddy. Only after that Zain assured that he will inform the family soon his bhabhi left him breathes peacefully.
