Arranged By Fate

Kabir ........

"Hello brother "
He said with a smile ,
which I somewhere felt evil .

"Navneet "
Said I confirming shock of the day

" Kabir... , Rashi... "
" Since morning I'm waiting for you "
Said my mum coming towards us

We touched her feet , taking blessings

" Come inside "
She said with a bit of hesitation , awkwardness .

" You have a seat , I'll bring tea "
She said going towards kitchen

" Mom I'll come with you "
Said rashi and left with mom .

" How's wedding " ?
" I hope...."
Started Navneet sitting beside me on sofa .

"Why are you here ?"
I asked , cutting him in middle , as I'm confused of his sudden appearance .
That too at my home .

" I...Umm.....a......"

"Navneet go and water the plants you were about to "
My dad nearly ordered him ,
to which he left with a nod .

" Kabir , son , he came yesterday .
His father rejected him for his deeds "
(via his run from engagement act)

"Nobody was accepting him but at the end of the day as he is a part of family . So his mom requested us to gave him shed for few days , as his uncle's family is not in the city for a while "

" Because you and Rashi were not here so we had agreed , as he can't be left alone on streets "

" But dad , he can't live with US "
" HE is the one with whom RASHI was about to get engaged "
" HE is the one who just eloped "
I reasoned controlling my distressed state .

" I know , I know son , I too care for rashi , she is like a daughter to me , but I'm helpless "
" Look I'll try my best to shift him from here , as soon as possible "
Dad assured me leaving a long sigh

I saw Navneet coming inside from garden .

" Dad I should change ,
I'm tired of driving too "
I excused myself and started going towards my room when

" Kabir "
" At least you don't behave like that buddy "
" See everybody is rude to me "
Shouted navneet coming towards me

Kabir : Because of your so much
grateful act
If you remember

N : Ouch ...
I know , I know , but there's a
reason why I ran .

K : What's the reason , tell me

N : I loved a girl , mom & dad didn't
like her , but I can't leave her .
So I didn't had any other option

N : You tell me what's wrong in that
It's not like I got married to
someone & then escaped .
I ran before engagement , leaving
space for her to get engaged to
someone else .

K : You.....

Mom : Kabir , are you going to your room son ?

K : yeah mom I was about to .

Mom : Give this tablet to rashi , she was saying she is having headache

K : headache ?? 😧

I took tablet and 2 cups of tea to my room leaving useless conversation with Navneet .

Otherwise I too will have to accompany Rashi with tablets for headache .

Wait wait wait .........
