D:: I want to marry you Sonakshi! Would u marry me?
He asked one more time and everything seemed to stop. Everyone was shocked including Dev's family, his family didn't know how to react as they had no clue Dev would say something like this today right at this moment. Even though his mother felt that Dev has some liking for Sonakshi but she never thought this would happen.
Seema:: Mrs. Arora what is Dev saying? Is this a joke?
Sonakshi gave a very sad smile and her tears rolled down her cheek
S:: Maa it's seems like has become a joke so why blame others if they want a piece of it. Let's go!!
Deepa:: no no Mrs. Sharma please understand, it's not a joke but honestly I had no clue Dev would say something like this Please please listen to me..
Seema:: there's nothing to talk about Mrs. Arora
Dev stood in front of them
D:: I'm not trying to block you not going to force you for anything. You have all the right to think the way you are thinking, my family had no clue about this infact even I had no clue I would say this. Sonakshi I can't mince my words neither I know how to impress people using words. I said what my instinct told me to say. I had no intentions to hurt you or insult you I can't even think of doing that even in my dreams, I can never think of insulting a woman may be that's why you had to rescue me when a girl insulted me because I didn't open my mouth. Aunty I had no intentions to insult you or Sonakshi, you can be angry with me you can punish me but just one request I just want you to know I genuinely want this.
S:: Are you done? Maa let's go
Deepa:: Seema Ji I fold my hands in front of you please forgive my son if he hurt your feelings, Sonakshi I beg you please trust me we don't mean to insult you, yes we had no clue something like this will happen. I know you won't believe me but trust me. Please beta forgive us for this if we hurt you
S:: Aunty I understand but what happened just didn't happen the right way.
Deepa:: beta!! I understand and now that Dev already said something like this I can't change what has happened but I can only say that Dev isn't joking. I know my son won't say anything which he doesn't mean.
S:: Maa lets go...
Sonakshi and her mother left and everyone looked at Dev, they didn't know how to react. It was pretty shocking because Dev has always been a shy simple respectful boy. He always listened to everyone he never did anything with girls that can make him a bad person.
Sanjay:: Dev I don't want to know why you said this when you thought about it. I just want to know did you mean what you said? Because here we are talking about a girl's life her self respect and I wouldn't want my son to make a mockery out of a woman.
D:: papa, if you trust your son and if you know me even little bit then you should know I meant what I said
Deepa:: but then beta what was the need to give them a shock like this? We could've sent your proposal to her in a proper way.
D:: I don't know Maa what happened to me when I saw Sonakshi. I don't know a weird feeling crept up my mind my heart and I don't even know how to name this emotion. Even I didn't want this to happen this way but when I saw her leaving I just said it. I just felt I need to say it before anyone else can get to her. I don't know why I felt I don't want to loose her. I've lost ten years it took me ten years to realize that Sonakshi has become a part of me.
Neha:: Dev, babu we love you and we trust you and we want the best for you, we know Sonakshi is a wonderful girl but before we take any action we need to be sure about your feelings. How would you feel if somebody did this to me?
D:: Di, I know what I did was not right and if someone did this to you I would punch the guy.
Neha:: that's it Dev, Sonakshi is vulnerable now and we can't do anything that can make her loose her confidence instead you should be a reason for her confidence her strength, just the way she was for you. Even she doesn't know what role she played on your life, infact even we don't know. We have to deal with this sensitive situation with lot of care and love. We can't be impulsive.
D:: I know Di I messed up but I just couldn't think of anything at that time.
Sanjay:: beta tell me something honestly straight from your heart, do you love Sonakshi?
D:: papa, I don't have a name for my emotion or may be because I don't know how love feels. But last ten years I always thought of her, I smiled thinking of her smile, I felt confident thinking of her confidence, I've tried being humble thinking of the way she came to help me. I've dated people I've seen girls but I've never felt the way I feel for her. I just know one thing I don't want to loose her and may be now she is broken but she can help me be complete because she is strong, she is as beautiful as a truth.
Sanjay smiled and hugged him
Sanjay:: arreeyyy!!! Deepa!! It's time to be happy. Our boy has become a man today, my boy is in love!!! Yes beta yesssss this is LOVE!!!
Atlast the family smiled and hugged Dev as they are happy that their timid shy boy has fallen in love and he has taken such a big decision.
Vishal:: okay okay everyone!!!! Now can we all think what should we do now? Because we did hurt Sonakshi and now we need to fix it.
Sanjay:: damad ji is correct we need to figure out something
Dev sat down panicking as he just realized that he messed up badly.
Neha:: Dev!! Dev!! Bhaiyu plsssss bachcha don't panic we will figure out something. It's a very closed circle I'm sure I'll find someone who knows Sonakshi & her family and we can pass on messages.
Vishal:: Neha don't worry Bablu's younger brother is very close to Sonakshi's brother. Papaji my best friend Bablu u know him right
Neha:: oh yea!! That's a good idea if we can get Arjun understand then everything can be fixed Sonakshi has always been close to her brother.
So the family started planning how to solve the problem but Dev was not going to give up
D:: guys I messed up so now I will fix the problem, yes I will need your support but I don't want you guys to suffer because of me and I hurt her feelings so I will have to make it up to her.
Deepa:: but beta now her family is involved as her mom was here so it's not only about Sonakshi but her family too.
Sonakshi's place
Seema:: I really don't know what to make out of it. I had no clue we will have to face this. I really don't know if the family was really not aware of what their son was thinking?
Aditya(dad):: I am going to make sure they pay for this, how dare they insult us like this?
Arjun:: I swear I'm going to get this Dev and thrash him. How dare he? This is what happens when you help someone. Sona helped him when he was getting bullied and instead of being thankful he bullied my sister
S:: Bhai calm down, its okay don't worry. I am fine. Take it easy
Arjun:: I'm not going to take it easy Sona.
S:: Maa please tell Bhai I'm fine and to be honest his family did say sorry even they looked shocked. So just let it be.
Arjun:: Sona if he tries to do anything then I'm telling you I won't spare him.
Even though Sonakshi was hurt but she felt she will let it go and not think much about it. But she couldn't help but think why Dev said something like this.
Next day Dev thought of calling Sonakshi and trying to apologize for his behavior and ask her to give him a chance to explain.
Dev called Sonakshi
S:: new number? Who is this now? Hello!!
D:: hello Sonakshi?
S:: yes, who is this?
D:: Sonakshi it's Dev
Suddenly Sonakshi just got very angry
S:: Dev? Now what do you want?
D:: Sonakshi please listen to me
S:: what else is left Dev?
D:: I am really sorry please listen
S:: why are you sorry now? Why you don't want to marry me anymore? Now you have other plans?
D:: please Sona listen to me
S:: there's nothing to listen to and by the way my name is Sonakshi, you get that?
D:: okay okay I'm sorry Sonakshi!! Please give me a chance to explain.
S:: Dev please don't test my patience and please don't call me again
She hung up and Dev just felt broken.
Meanwhile Deepa called Seema and tried talking to her, she apologized but Seema didn't want to talk more and Deepa couldn't explain anything.
Next few days were very depressing for Dev as every door was being closed before him, he couldn't find a way to reach to Sonakshi. Ofcourse he didn't want people to know what happened because he knew this patriarchal society will blame the girl even when it's not her fault. He understood that her family was trying to protect her so he couldn't even force anything.
He did try to follow her to the orphanage but when Arjun saw him, he didn't say anything but walked away. He tried sending text to Sonakshi but she blocked his number.
It's been already more than three weeks and Dev was feeling lost. Even he didn't know his feeling for Sonakshi was so strong, he had no clue all these years Sonakshi came across his mind even when he wasn't thinking because he was in love with her.
Dev believes in introspection and he kept asking himself that whatever he was doing was right or not. He asked himself million questions to be sure not for himself but for Sonakshi. He just wanted to be prepared to answer every question if ever Sonakshi asked.
He knew it will be hard for Sonakshi to believe that he really loves her and Sonakshi would definitely question him when and why this happened as she only spend only few days with him during the prom time after that they haven't met for ten years.
But he was ready for that question because he knew every word he will say will be from his heart.
This time he thought he will go to her house and try to explain, so in the morning Dev went to Sonakshi's place and he rang the bell, the security guard asked him to wait and called inside and Arjun answered the intercom and when he heard it was Dev he was furious and he came out when Dev tried talking to him he insulted Dev and warned him to stay away from his sister. Once again Dev's effort went in vain, later in the evening Dev was in a cafe with Bunty discussing life and what to do now as Sonakshi wasn't giving him a chance. Suddenly he heard some noise and turned around and saw it was Sonakshi who stood in a corner and some people were saying things which didn't sound nice. He got up and walked towards them and Bunty followed. When Dev went close to them he realized it was Sonakshi's ex boyfriend with his wife and his best friend with some other friends there who were taunting and teasing Sonakshi. Seeing this boiled Dev's blood and went and stood beside her.
D:: tomorrow morning I'll make sure to print each and everyone's character certificate in the local newspaper
He said that to that group, he was angry and he meant every single word he said.
ExBf:: wtf is ur problem? (Tried hitting Dev)
Dev caught his hand
D:: Don't even try!!! We are in public place I don't want to create a scene.
Dev held his wrist so tightly that he started screaming
D:: next time consider it broken
Sonakshi ran outside and Dev ran after her
D:: Sonakshi !! Sonakshi!!! Listen to me please
S:: Dev please leave me alone
She was crying and running and Dev was running after her, she didn't notice a car was coming and Dev suddenly pulled her towards him saving her from coming under the car
S:: leave me Dev leave me!!
D:: Sonakshi please!! You were about to come under the car
S:: I don't care just leave me
As she was trying to yank his hand off her Arjun saw this, he and his wife dropped Sonakshi and asked her to order stuff as they couldn't find a parking and they were about to enter the cafe after parking their car and saw Dev was pulling Sonakshi, Arjun couldn't control his anger and slapped Dev shocking everyone there
Arjun:: how dare you Dev? How dare you touch my sister?
Dev didn't say anything didn't even react to the slap his lip started bleeding. Arjun caught him by his collar
Arjun:: I'm not going to spare you for this
S:: Bhai leave him!! Bhai leave Dev right now?
Arjun:: no Sona today I'm not going to leave him, Dev I told you in the morning stay away from my sister
S:: Bhai let him go.. he didn't do anything, he saved me from coming under a car. Bhai listen to me...
Arjun:: what?
Bunty:: Arjun, Sonakshi was running and Dev pulled her as she was coming under a car
Arjun left Dev's collar
Arjun:: why were you running Sona? Were you running because of this Dev?
S:: nn no! Na (she was so nervous)
Bunty:: Vicky and his gang is there they were teasing her.
Arjun:: this Vicky !! I'm going to take care of him now
Dev stood tall in front of Arjun
D:: that's already been taken care off. Please take Sonakshi home.
Arjun felt little weird but put his eyes down and took Sonakshi home. As she was leaving she looked at Dev, she felt bad and she was sorry that he got hit by her brother even though it was not his fault. Dev didn't blink his eyes till she was gone.
Next day Dev got a call from Arjun and he asked Dev to meet him in Starbucks.
D:: hi Arjun
Arjun:: hi Dev, come sit. I am actually sorry about yesterday, I didn't know what happened but when I saw.....
D:: please don't apologize. I would've done the same if I saw any guy pulling my sister
Arjun:: thanks!! And also thanks for supporting Sona in front of Vicky
D:: again please don't say thanks, I did what was needed
Arjun:: okay... fine...
D:: how is Sonakshi?
Arjun:: (he gave a frown but still answered) little shaken but she is fine. She is a strong girl.
D:: I know she is...
Again Arjun gave him a look and atlast he asked
Arjun:: Dev! Why did you tell Sona that you want to marry her?
D:: Arjun I didn't just say it I meant it
Arjun:: seriously man!!! Out of the blue you ask my sister to marry you and you want me to just believe it?
D:: I don't have any proof to prove myself but people who knows me knows I don't lie.
Arjun:: why?
D:: when you can't stop thinking of one person for a decade and if that person helps to change your life and make you happy what would you do?
Arjun:: but how did Sona do all this?
D:: she came in my life when I needed it the most, I was at a tender age when I needed a boost in life and you can't imagine what she did to me. I would often think of Sonakshi everytime before doing anything, I could never stop thinking about her. Last time when I came I wanted to see her but I found out she was about to get married and I lost hope and went back to America but for the first time I wasn't happy in America so I came back. When I came back I saw Sonakshi and found out what happened.
Arjun:: so you found out and you thought okay let's go try my luck?
D:: no!! I never wanted to make things like this, but when I saw her at my place and I still couldn't tell her how I felt for her and when she was leaving I just blurted out what I said that day. I guess I didn't think too much about the consequences
Arjun:: so what do you want now?
D:: I want Sonakshi to forgive me and may be give me a chance to explain why I said what I did. I know she is way high above may be I don't deserve her but I'm not even that bad. I know I will do everything to keep her happy. If she feels I'm not her kind then she can say no to me I will never force her for anything. But I'm not giving up till she says no to me herself.
Arjun:: Dev Sorry we misunderstood you... but to be honest Sona is going to a rough time we don't want to impose anything on her. But I'll talk to my family.
After a long time Dev got a ray of hope but ofcourse he knows there's a long way to go.
Arjun:: I can only guarantee that me and my family will support you but if Sona says no then I can't help you
D:: if Sona says no then even I won't ask any question
Arjun:: give me few days I'll contact you.
After few days Seema talked to Deepa and they sorted out everything and thought of meeting in person, both the families decided to meet each other and talk about future.
Sharma family invited the Arora family to their house. It seems they talked to Sonakshi about the whole incident and she didn't say no to them for Dev.
Dev and his family came over for Dinner, everyone seemed to be happy. Dev couldn't take his eyes off Sonakshi but she didn't look at him even once.
As the family started talking about Dev and Sonakshi Dev noticed Sonakshi, she was nervous, she didn't say a single word she was behaving like a robot.
When Dev's dad started talking about engagement
D:: Dad wait!!
Everyone looked at him little shocked because they don't want another shock now like before.
D:: before we go further I just want to say I don't want to get married like this
Sanjay:: what? Dev??
D:: papa, how can I marry someone who is not ready
to marry me?
That was the first time Sonakshi looked at him.....Hola Amigos
I hope you all didn't get bored, pls feel free to comment and don't forget to vote
Much love ❤️
