AUTHOR'S POV

Shravya and Adhyay are ready to go to the airport, all are having dinner with everyone. Shravya tries to control her laugh because Ram told her about his love story with Revathi.

Adhyay has heard this love story of his grandfather many times, but seeing Shravya smiling like this, today he is listening back to this story of Ram in a better way while enjoying with Shravya. Ram continued.

"So my father showed us, me and my maa, Revathi's photo and I really liked her at first sight…. On the day dadu and my father had to go to meet her, my heartbeat was very high. I wondered what I would say to her?..... I am 18 and she is 15…. Her family members do not allow me to talk to her anyway because at that time only the relationship was fixed by the elder, only the girl's father talked to the boy …. And for this work, I was being taken to the executioner father of her…"

Revathi hits her elbow in his stomach, Shravya laughs at this, Ram holds her from her shoulder and says.

"Guess what waha kya Hua…. (What happened there)."

Except for Shravya, everyone present there laughs out loud. Shravya looks at Adhyay who is currently laughing with his family. Ranjan immediately says.

"Nanaji was very much afraid of any type of vehicle, so he never bought a car, he used a bicycle always… While he was the richest man in the village and was the Sarpanch for 10 years…. Still, he always travels by bicycle..."

Revathi hid her face in her palm while laughing remembering the scene. Ram says look at her.

"And whenever any car come in the village, all the children of the village were very much crazy to see the car and dance in front of it….. When our car reached the village, all the children were dancing in front of our car and Revathi was one of those children without a dupatta ...."

Shravya laughs out after hearing him and looks at Revathi with surprise, Ram continues.

"My father is a very angry man. He didn't say anything to Revathi as she is not aware of our marriage alliance, and at last, she sticks out her tongue toward our side and runs away with them all…… I thought babuji would be angry but he was laughing while holding his stomach... Even my dadu sa laughing at her and say "so innocent" ."

Here everyone starts laughing, Adhyay looks at Shravya lots of times. Every time his intense gaze gives a chill to her spine but she is enjoying the story so much.

"We went to meet Revathi's father, he was a very harsh kind of man, he did not know how to smile…. He asked me such questions which I could not even understand, but it became very important to answer him because he was sitting in front and looking in such a way that if I did not answer then you are finished today…. But at last, he liked me so much…. And fix this relationship….. The relationship was decided that whenever Revathi will turn 18 years old, she will get married, now only a rokafied ceremony will be done by both sides….. he gives me 1 rupees note and my father gives her father 1 rupees note to fix the alliance…. And now marriage is fixed ….. The car started going out of the village, all the children came and started dancing but my Revati was not in the group of children… so I lost the opportunity to see her again…. There were 3 years left for her to turn 18, so I could not stop myself without seeing her …. who had become crazy about her just by looking at her photo."

Raunak laughs loudly and immediately says.

"No doubt my Reva has been very hot since her childhood…. "

Ram throws a napkin at his side which he catches and says.

"She is mine… I somehow found out where Revathi goes and when….. She had a daily morning routine that she used to go to the temple with her mother and stayed in the house all day for house chores and sometimes used to play with the children….. Girls were not taught at the time, But my father wanted his daughter-in-law to be educated, so a good lady teacher was hired to give her tuition at home….. I would often stand on the way to the temple just to see her…."

Rajan laughs loudly and says while looking at Shravya.

"My mom's mother means Nani sa was the traditional lady of the village, she had never seen her Jamai(son-in-law) nor wanted to see him because she used to wear a veil from him, it's our tradition,..... But the problem occurred when she noticed A boy standing on the way to the temple to see their daughter often, But neither did she ever say anything to that boy, nor did that boy ever do anything…. My mother knew that her relationship was fixed but did not know how with whom but the boy who used to see her every day, she started liking him…. "

Revathi laughs loudly with everyone and looks at Ram and says.

"At first I didn't like this boy. He is not ashamed at all. Every day the girl goes to the temple with her mother and he just keeps looking at her…. But slowly I started liking him and I am scared of what I will say to my family because to date he has not told me anything, only keeps watching me from afar….. And my father has fixed my marriage somewhere so what should I do now, because I start liking him?.... On my 18th birthday, my father allowed me to go to the city with my friends so that I can roam for 1 day and after that, I get married then I should do all this whatever I like….. your grandfather also followed me there and there he wished me a birthday….. I fearfully told him that I like him but my marriage is fixed somewhere….. he is so bad that listening to me without informing me anything, he smiles and hugs me, but does not tell me that the boy with whom my marriage is fixed is none other than he is."

Now Shravya can't stop laughing at all, she grabs her stomach and starts laughing out loud. Due to constant laughing, both her cheeks have become red, and her jaw has also started hurting, which she is holding and pressing again and again. Adhyay also smiles at this. Revathi continued.

"you see this guy is so bad he didn't even once tell me he liked me too and quietly left… Never even came in front of me again, here the groom's Father came and told them that they want to get married as soon as possible…. I got so scared I didn't know what to do… I like some other boy and that boy has disappeared now I am going to marry some other boy…. Days passed in my happy and sad sometimes mixed feelings, what should I do and what not, the day of my marriage has also come in all this trouble…. I thought nothing good is going to happen now... It is better to marry the boy your father likes."

Here Shravya's interests are increasing a lot, she is listening very carefully to her grandmother. Ram immediately says.

"On the wedding day, my mother-in-law somehow looked at me from her veil and check me correctly…. And her head was astonished that the boy was the one who was after his daughter… This is the one who used to follow her in the temple every day… she somehow told this to my father-in-law and the father-in-law got very angry….. he thought that this boy used to come to see their daughter before marriage….. And all these things are not considered good at all in the village and he was also a very traditional man…. He broke the relationship thereafter talking to my father…. Everyone started explaining that he was doing this wrong but my father-in-law was a very stubborn person….. he always thought that what he said was true, apart from this he did not like to listen to anyone….. The matter was getting worse, it was completely useless to explain anything to him ...."

There is absolute silence, everyone looks at Shravya, who widens her eyes and listens to her grandfather's words very carefully. She looked around and all burst into laughter. After a few seconds Revathi says

"What's happening outside or not, I didn't know anything, I was just remembering the same boy who used to follow me again and again…. But today my marriage was going to take place with the boy whom I don't know, so I had decided that I will tell everything to him first, after that I get scolded by anyone...."

Ram immediately holds her hand and says very lovingly.

"No one dares to say anything to you…. As I knew for sure that this marriage was not going to happen and I could not live without Revathi…. I immediately left from there, my friends had already told me which room Revathi was staying in, I told them, you go prepare for marriage at the temple outside the village…. I went to Revathi's room by jumping from the window..... There was no one there, she was alone…. As soon as she saw me, she became very happy and seeing me in the groom's clothes, she seemed that I had come here to get married to her …. I didn't have to work hard at all and she ran away with me leaving her wedding mandap…. It is a matter of thinking that both of us escaped from our own wedding pavilion….."

They all burst into laughter, Adhyay passes a glass of water to Shravya which she quickly gulps, and again looks at them.

"Here in the village, a ruckus was started that the girl was kidnapped, someone took her away, the groom was also missing, so the whole doubt was on the groom…. Both of us got married in the temple, here the girl does not know yet that the boy who came to marry her and the boy who used to follow her are the same…. Reached her house, after marriage, handled the whole situation there, then she came to know that both boys are not different but are the same…..Now the marriage had already happened, the whole village had also seen, everyone together explained to my father-in-law, then he agreed….. It was with great difficulty that her father agreed, but now my wife got angry on the matter because I had not told her anything till now…… She started crying after clinging to her father that she doesn't have to go with me, now that's enough…. I lifted her on my shoulder in front of the whole village, really kidnapped her, and brought her to my house by putting her in the same car in front of which she was dancing with her friends."

The condition of Shravya has become very bad from laughing, she has held her stomach well because it's really hurting because of continuous laughing. Rajan looked at his watch and announced.

"Adhyay let's go, this is about your flight time, we will talk about this topic some other day."

Adhyay and Shravya hug everyone and go out of the house with Raunak.
