Part 20 : MY UNWANTED WIFE

"beta tumhare parents....unse baat ho jaati toh shaadi ji date fix kar lete" Nimi Maasi said while placing the shagun basket aside....
"Maasi.... mere parents....n...n...nahi hain...." she lowered her head in grief....
"nahi hain....beta kaise hua yeh sab" she was perplexed by her reply....
"Maasi...woh plane crash mein mere mom dad... 6 saal ho gaye....tabse main akeli hoon..." she sounded morose.......
"beta aisa nahi kehte.... main sirf Randhir ki nahi tumhari bhi maasi hoon...kabhi mat kehna ki tum akeli ho....aur dekho Randhir bhi toh ab tumhara hi hai" she kissed her forehead....

"Maasi isko bolo na roye nahi...ab toh sab achha ho gaya hai....humari shaadi hone waali hai..." he was worried after watching her cry.....

Finally it was the D day.....

Randhir and Sanyukta were about to get married....

he was ready in his beautiful Sherwani....
he entered the room where Sanyukta was getting ready....

"Randhir tum yahan....this is not allowed okay...shaadi se pehle dulha dulhan ko nahi dekh sakta" she pushed him away....
"achha.... yeh rule kisne banaya... main vaise bhi inn stupid rules ko nahi maanta.... toh the conclusion is that ki main yahin rahunga..." he pulled her closer and rubbed his nose on her neck....
"Randhir leave...." she lovingly slapped his cheek...
"aise kaise leave....ek toh itni khoobsoorat lag rahi ho main toh bilkul nahi jaane
wala yahan se" he picked her up in his arms.....
"achha baithe raho yahin...." she freed herself from his hold,made a face and chuckled a bit....
"Randhir kya hua....aap ro rahe ho" suddenly she noticed his moist eyes....
"nahi toh..." he tried to hide his tears....
"Kya hua Randhir.... tell me" she cupped his face....
"mom dad ko bahut miss kar raha hoon....agar woh log hote toh kitna achha hota....apni bahu se bhi mil paate...." he said in a pained voice....
"I understand Randhir.... bahut mushkil hai unki kami ko poora karna....par hum kismat ke aage toh nahi jeet sakte na" she engulfed him in a tight hug....

"you're right Sanyu.... anyways.... main neeche jaa raha hoon....tum bhi jaldi se aa jaana" he kissed her cheek....
"hmm" she nodded her head....

Later in the mandap....

Randhir and Sanyukta sat together for the wedding rituals to accomplish.....

"vadhu ke mata pita...." the priest called out....
"Pandit ji woh nahi hain...." Sanyukta mumbled.....
"Aur var ke mata pita...." he again asked....
"woh bhi nahi hain Pandit ji..." Randhir said in a feeble voice....
"ek minute Randhir...." she stopped him....
"kya hua Sanyukta?" he was confused....
"tumhe ek surprise dena hai" she was about to get up....
"iss waqt surprise.... Sanyukta baad mein kar lenge yeh sab...abhi pehle shaadi ke rituals finish kar lete hain...." he held her hand. . .
"nahi Randhir....yahi appropriate time hai" she looked at him with a confident smile....

"maa...papa....aayiye" she called out....
"mom....dad...aap dono.... how's this possible...aap dono toh" he was flabbergasted...
"Ranu beta....tujhe aur bahu ko aashirwaad dene toh aana hi tha" his father smiled...

"I can't believe my eyes...this is surely a dream...." tears started flowing from his eyes.....
"nahi beta hum dono zinda hain" his mother caressed his cheek....
