Unknowingly Married

27. Karan's Decision

Kriti: (whispers back) Whatt?? Nani.. you can't be serious.. aur boyfriend? Nahi.. bilkul nahi.. wo to mujhe pasand bhi nahi karta.. aapne pehle kyu nahi bataya aap Ka.. Khushi ke bhai ki baat kar rahi thi?

Nani: (whispers to her) taaki tu pehle hi mana na kar de..

Khushi: Dadi.. mai in dono ko upar room mein le jau? bhai ko baat karni thi na Kriti se unka jawab dene se pehle..

Kriti: (in mind: iska matlab Khushi pehle se sab kuch jaanti thi.. murder hai aaj iskaa I swear.. lekin abhi iss situation ka kya karu?)

Dadi: ha ha.. bilkul.. le jao..

(Kriti looks at Khushi angrily but couldn't react in front of everyone)

Khushi: Chalo chalo.. Karan chal.. Kritss.. uth naa..

(Karan walks ahead of them and both girls walk behind him)
Kriti: Khushi tu sab kuch jaanti thi naa?

Khushi: Kritss.. yaar mere bhai ke rishte ki baat hogi to obviously mujhe pata hoga na... I mean.. hamare gharpe aisa normally hota hai ki rishta aata hai to haa ya nahi bolne se pehle hum puchte hai ki kisase rishta ho raha hai.. (giggles)

Kriti: bohot maza aa raha hai na tujhe? Aur tu jaanti thi to bataya kyu nahi mujhe?

Khushi: ab teri family ne nahi bataya to mai kaise batati yaar.. infact tera call aaya tab hum khud shocked the ki tujhe pata nahi hai ki ye sab Karan ke baare mein chal raha hai..
(They reach Karan's room)
Okay, Kriti ab mai yaha tak aa gayi lekin isase jyada yaha rukna sahi nahi hoga.. Karan mai apne room mein jaa rahi hu.. tum logo ko jo baatein vaatein karni hai wo karke mujhe call karna phir saath mein neeche jaayenge..

Karan: okay..

Khushi: Karan mai jau na?

Karan: Jaa Khushi..

Khushi: Baat karna okay acche se?

Karan: tu jayegi to jaroor koshish karunga baat karne ki..

Khushi: Haww.. fine jaa rahi hu..

Kriti: Par Khu..
(Khushi leaves them alone)

Kriti: (in mind: Iss Khushi ko to mai chhodungi nahi.. iske bhai ke saamne meri jabaan nahi khulti aur ye ladki mujhe uske saath akela chhodke chali gayi.. wo bhi shaadi ke liye baat karne.. hadd hoti hai matlab.. upar se ise sab pata tha phir bhi mujhe kuch nahi bataya aur puch rahi thi meri feelings ke baare mein.. ohh godd.. ab mai isase kya baat karungi.. meri to uske paas dekhne ki bhi himmat nahi ho rahi.. aur ye sab.. iska matlab hai maine iske saath shaadi ke liye haa kar di hai.. ab kya mai zindagi bhar bina baatein kare gujarne wali hu? Nooo.. godd!! Waise abhi tak isne haa kiya nahi hai.. aur karega bhi kyu.. he has a life out there.. ladkiya marti hai iske liye.. lekin Dadi.. ho sakta hai dadi ke liye.. lekin wo mujhse pyaar nahi karta.. and I wonder kabhi karega bhi.. baat to karta hai nahi, pyaar kya khakh karegaa.. ab jo bhi ho.. I can't back out.. ab jo faisla karna hai, isiko karna hai..)

(He snap his fingers in front of Kriti)
Karan: are you ok?

Kriti: y.. y.. yaa..

Karan: to baitho na.. kab se bol raha hu.. dhyaan kaha hai tumhara?

Kriti: I am.. s.. sor.. sorry.. wo mai..

(He makes her sit on the bed and sits besides her. He holds her hand and current flows across her spine)
