"How can you say that? Is he only your son or does his happiness just don't matter to you" Rajeet said.
"I don't care, okay. All that matters is that our son will never marry that girl. The only relationship that I can agree to be between the two family is friendship and not getting our children married to each other."Sriti said.
"But those t....." Sriti didn't let her husband talk finish before she interrupted him.
"No, there is nothing to talk about again, I have said my final and I am going to bed" she said and makes her way to the bed.
"You don't have the right to make the final decision in house Sriti, that is my responsibility as the head of the house. I have somethings to get outside so I never you to know that those children are already married."
"I won't be giving them my blessings, and I will see how they will go through with these without my blessings." Sriti said.
"They will always have God's blessings." He said leaving the room.
Sriti angrily called her friend, Palavi's mother, Sanita.
"Hello Sanita" Sriti said with a worried voice.
Sanita replied on the other side of the phone
"Hello Sriti my dearest friend, how are you? And why do you sounds so worried over the phone?" Sanita asked.
"My husband is planning to get my son married."
"What? Your son is supposed to marry my daughter and no one else." Sanita said.
"But I am not going to let that happen, I am not going to let my son get married to that local, dirty, disgusting, and poor girl. I will do everything in my power to stop them." Sriti assures.
"Good, make sure you inform your son, I am sure he won't want to marry her."
" He brought up the marriage thing" Sriti said angrily.
"What?"
Sriti heard a footsteps.
"Sanita, I think my husband is coming, good night." Sriti said.
" Good night Sriti." Sanita hang up the phone, Sriti went to bed pretending to have slept.
" I can't believe she slept after causing so much trouble." Rajeet said and went to bed.
The next day Rajeet and his son, get set heading to Achanna's house to seek for her hand in marriage.
"So you still won't listen to me' Sriti said looking at both her son and husband.
" Mother, i don't think there is any thing to say based on that issue anymore. I am going to marry Achu and no one else because I love her, and no one would stop me from doing so." Daljeet said.
"Really? Even I too can't stop you from marry her?" Sriti asked.
"It is enough now mother, stop talking about it......." He paused, faced his father and continued "...... father let's go already."
" Okay" his father replied.
" I can't believe this, my son just disobeyed and talk to me like that because of a girl."
Savita who heard what her mother said, went to meet her hugged her from the back
"Good morning Mother." Savita greeted.
"Good morning my baby, how was your night?" Sriti asked.
"I slept really well mother...." She paused, sighed and continued "…… about Daljeet, can you just let him be happy with the girl he loves?"
"What?" She removed Savita's hand from her body and faced her. She continues talking " I can't believe you are siding with them, you are my daughter." Sriti said.
" I Know Mom, but Achu is my friend and I know her very well, she is a good girl. Are you scare she is going to break my brother's heart but Mom, I can assure you that she would not and never do that." Savita tries to assure her mother.
" Wow I can't believe this, even you. There is no reason talking about this" she said and started heading upstairs.
" You said you love us Mom, but it doesn't seem like you really care about what makes us happy, you don't care about our desires. All you care about is what you will gain from whatever happens in our lives. I mean we are your children, you should at least have a little bit of mother's love for us. But no, you only care about your desires, your happiness. And what is your happiness, money. You want to sell my brother just the way you sold big sister...." Sriti sighed and Savita continue "........you want him to get married to a family with lots of money for your selfish interest " Savita said angrily with tears in her eyes rolling down her cheeks as she was crying.
" How can you say that? " Sriti said.
Savita angrily walk out of her mother.
" Because of that Achanna girl my daughter spoke to me like that. Now I hate her more and I will not spare her, let's see how she gets married to my son and become a member of the Maholtra' s family." Sriti said angrily.
At Achanna' s place, Achanna was crying as her sister Priyanka was consoling her.
" Please don't cry Achu, don't cry now." Priya consoles.
Achanna looks up with tears in her eyes "how can mother and father do that without informing me, how can they arrange a marriage for me without telling me first, no that is bad, I won't get married to that man especially when I don't know him." Achanna said.
Just then Daljeet and Rajeet entered.
" Namastay here" Rajeet said.
" Hello Uncle" Priya replied.
" Where are your parents?" Rajeet asked.
" They excort the visitors" Priya replied.
" What is wrong with Achu? Is she sleeping?" Daljeet asked.
" No, she is crying."
" Why" Rajeet and Daljeet asked.
" Some people came to ask for her hand in marriage" Priya replied.
