When others joined Behir on dance floor they stepped aside quietly.

Bela saw her mother and jumped on her (hugged her tightly): Mumma!

They started chatting and Mahir was standing beside them listening and smiling. Andy was passing from there and took Mahir aside for a second.

Andy: (strictly) See Mahir I am telling last time, no one can know about your brother. Tum kisi ko nahi bataoge.

Mahir: Yes dad I know kisi ko nahi batana. Don't worry I will take care no

Andy didn't let him complete: This includes your friends too. Unn namuno par mujhe vishwas nahi hai. Tumhari shaadi kaise aur kyu hui tum unhe kuch nahi bataoge.

Mahir: But dad

Andy: No but! Just do as I say. Nahi bataoge unko matlab nahi bataoge. (Strictly) Understand?

Mahir: (sighed) Yes dad!

Andy: Tell this to your wife too. Same goes for her.

He left from there. He pressed his forehead. Bela comes to him and holds his other hand.

Bela: Kya hua?

Mahir: Dad!

Bela: Ab kya bola unhone?

Mahir: Kisi ko bhai ke baare mein nahi batana.

Bela: Pata hai ye to. Relax! Tension mat lo.

Mahir: I am fine.

Waiter was passing from there. He offered them soft drinks.

Bela: Ye lelo Mahir. Acha lagega.

He picked one glass.

Mahir: Tum bhi to lo. Konsi logi? Orange?

Bela: Nahi!

Mahir: Black?

Bela: Mujhe white wali chaiye.

Waiter: Abhi lata hu madam.

He went.

Mahir: Meri mein se 1 sip leke dekho. Achi hai ye.

Bela: Pata nahi..

Mahir: Try to kar.

Bela: Okay!

He took his glass near her lips. They were looking in each other's eyes. She was about to take a sip when his friends came to take him with them.

Raghav: Excuse us bhabhi. Thori der ke liye leke jaa rahe hai isse(Mahir). Kuch important baat karni hai.

Mahir moved his head left to right signalling Bela not to let them take him.

Veer: Don't worry! Aapka saman(item/object) sahi salamat wapas kar jayenge.

Bela: Saman?

Vikrant: Iska matlab hai Mahir. Mazak karne ki aadat hai isse. Don't take him seriously.

Mahir: Main insan hu.

Raghav: Pata hai... Chal ab.

They took him with them leaving Bela standing alone.

Shivi, Vish and Meera came to her.

Meera: Bela tune shaadi karli?

Vish: Vo bhi isse.😠

Bela: Isse kya matlab? Aise mat bolo.😕

Meera: To kaise bole?

Bela: Vo itne bhi bure nahi hain jitna tum log samaj rahe ho. Didi(Shivi) bolo na inko.😒

Shivi: Main kya bolu?

Bela: Aap batao vo ache hai.

Shivi: Kon ache hai?

Bela: Mahir!

Shivi: Really Bela vo ache hai?

Bela: Aap mere pati ko aise nahi bol sakti jabki ye shaadi aapki wagah se hui.

Vish: Inki wagah se kaise?

Shivi glared at her.

Bela bites her tongue: Vo..vo didi ne mujhe bola mujhe pasand hai Mahir to main sharmau(shy) naa aur zyada naa soch ke unko haa bol du.😊

Vish & Meera: What?

Shivi: Maine kab bola?😲

Bela: Aapne bola to tha jab Mahir ne mujhe propose kiya tha. Aap aur jiju bhi to vahi the. You both encouraged us.

Shivi: (slowly) Beta iss akru badtameez ki sangat mein reh kar kitni safai se jhoot bolne lagi hai tu.

Meera: Kya?

Bela: Ha! He liked me and didn't wanted to take a chance so he proposed me.

Vish: Itni jaldi propose kar diya? Mile huye hi kitna time hua tha tum dono ko?

Meera: Aur tune itni jaldi haa bhi kardi?

Bela: Haa! Didi ne bola pasand hai to haa karde. Dono behne ek sath ek ghar mein rahengi shaadi ke baad.😊

Shivi: Maine aisa bola?

Vish: (To Shivi) Tum to tab se Mahir ke peeche pari ho. Lagatar fight kar rahi ho, bura bhala bol rahi ho aur tumne hi apni behen ko aise insan ke sath shaadi karne ke liye force kiya?

Shivi: Maine kisi ko force nahi kara. (Bela hit her elbow.)
Vo..vo sath mein rehne ka idea tempting laga mujhe. Bachpan se sath rahe hai to ek dusre ki aadat hai to socha...

Vish: Zarur kuch to garbad hai jo isne aise achanak se propose kiya. Bela main bol rahi hu ye insan thek nahi hai.

Meera: Ha kuch to chupa raha hai ye. Varna aise achanak se

Bela: Kyu main kya itni kharab hu ki mujhse kisi ko aise pyaar nahi ho ki vo kuch time bhi mere bina naa reh paaye?🥺

Vish: Nahi tu best hai. Kuch bhi mat bol pagal. Par ye sab sirf movies, TV aur books mein hota hai.

Bela: Mahir bure nahi hain. Sachhi! Ha kabhi kabhi gussa aa jata hai unhe par mujh par nahi karte.

Meera: Kitni larai karte ho tum dekha hai humne.

Bela: Kab dekha?

Vish: Belaa!

Bela: Kya? Vo to sab normal hota hai couples mein. Sath mein rahenge to kuch to disagreements honge hi. Pata hai vo mere liye new baby(Pinku) laye hai.

Trio: WHAT?😱 BABY?

Shivi: Bela itni jaldi baby bhi?

Bela: Ha! Aao mere sath mere room mein dikhati hu.

She ran in excitement of showing off Pinku, leaving Vish, Meera & Shivi baffled.

Shivi: Baby!😮 1 week mein? Rocket ki speed se bhi tez nikle ye to.

Meera: (Followed her) Dikhati hu matlab? Kya dikhayegi? Aa Vish...

Vish too went after them: Adopt kiya hai?

Shocked Shivi went to her mother: Mummy! Mummy! Vo Bela...

Her mother was standing with some people. She excused them and took her at side.

Mother: Kya hua Bela ko?

Shivi: Vo usne abhi bataya ki😓

Mother: Kya?

Shivi: Uska ba..baby

Mother: Kya?

Shivi: Usne bola Mahir ne usse baby diya. Baby! Mummy baby! Itni jaldi Mahir ne baby plan kar liya?😨 Main

Mother: Shant!

Shivi: Par mummy Bela

Mother: Shant! Vo uske liye new teddy bear laya hai.

Shivi: Kya?

Mother: Ha! Uska Tweetu kho gaya tha to vo pareshan thi to Mahir new teddy bear le aaya uske liye. Vahi hai uska baby.

Shivi: Teddy!

Mother: Tu janti hai na usse. Kitne pasand hai stuffed toys usse.

Shivi: Ye bhi na.🤦🏻‍♀️

Mother: Chal dekhte hai usse. Kaha hai vo?

Shivi: Dikhane gayi hai apni friends ko apna baby. Chalo...

They too went to Behir's room.

In Behir's room...

Bela picked Pinku at the instant she entered room and just after her Vish & Meera entered.

Bela: Ye dekho mera Pinku. Mera baby!😁

Vish: Ye hai tumhara baby!😧

Bela: Mahir laaye isse mere liye. 😁 Kitna cute hai na?

Meera: Ha bahut cute hai. Lovely! Mujhe do...

Bela hugs it tightly: Nahi! Main nahi dunga. Mera hai...

Meera: 1 min ke liye.

Bela moves her head left to right: Nahi!

Vish: Acha isse nahi to mujhe dedo.

Bela: Nahi!

Vish: Nahi? To main Tweetu le leti hu.😏

Vish was about to pick Tweetu but Bela quickly picked him. Meanwhile Shivi and her mother came to the room.

Bela: Nahiii! Mera Tweetu!😠

Meera: Kya Bela? Tweetu bhi tumhara aur Pinku bhi?

Vish: That's not fair.😏

Bela:(in low voice) Mere hai dono.🥺

Shivi: Rehne do rehne do. Iske pati ne dekha na tum uski Bela ko parehan kar rahi ho to mushkil ho jayegi.

Bela: Didi😠

Shivi: Kya?

Bela: Bas 1 limit hoti hai. Aap Mahir ke peeche hi par gayi. Itni hi problem thi to bhaagi kyu? Aapki wagah se hi Mahir mera pati hai bhulo mat.

Vish & Meera: Bhaagi?

On the other hand Mahir was too getting investigated.

Mahir: Tum log mujhe idhar kyu laaye ho?

Vikrant: Story sunne ke liye.

Mahir: Kaisi story?

Raghav: Teri shaadi ki.

Veer: Don't think we believe what your father said.

Vikrant: Dono ko pyaar ho gaya to shaadi kar li. Really?

Veer: Hatt!😂 (He laughs)

Mahir: Kyu? Kyu nahi ho sakta hame pyaar?

Veer: Kisse bewakoof bana raha hai beta. Itni sundar larki tere set ho gayi? Vo bhi itni jaldi? Sach bata...

Mahir: Mazak banao mera. Main nahi bata raha.😠 Kyu koi sundar larki mujhe pasand nahi kar sakti?

Vikrant: Kar sakti hai. Bilkul kar sakti hai par hum baat teri kar rahe hai. Tere mein itni himmat hai kisi larki ko confront karne ki?

Mahir: Ha hai... Bilkul hai. I am very brave and smart.

Veer: Isliye ab tak koi girlfriend nahi thi teri.

Mahir: Nahi! Vo to mujhe koi pasand nahi aayi thi. Kai sari girls ne mujhe approach kiya hai but maine hi mana kar diya. Tum log na jalte ho mere se.😒

Raghav: Aisa kuch nahi hai. Tu inki baato pe dhyan mat de. Aise hi pareshan kar rahe hai ye. Tu bata kya hua?

Mahir: Vo😓

Raghav: Kuch problem hai? Dekh kuch to baat hai tabhi tu itne din se ignore kar raha hai. Ye shaadi bahut sudden hai. Sab thek hai na? Kuch to baat hai.

Mahir was about to tell everything but saw his father staring at him from distance.

Mahir: N..nahi... Koi p.. problem nahi hai. M..mujhe sachi mein Bela par pahle se crush tha. Bhai ki shaadi ki baat se pahle se.

Vikrant: To tune hame pahle kyu nahi bataya tujhe kisi larki pe crush hai?

Mahir: K..kyuki mujhe laga

Raghav: Ha kya laga? Tu ghabra kyu raha hai? Darr mat aaram se bata.

Mahir: Nahi darr nahi raha.

Veer: To hakla(stammer) kyu raha hai bey?

Vikrant: Kyu nahi bataya hame? Hum help hi karte na.

Mahir: 1 min... Sochne mein time lagta hai.

Raghav: Kya?

Mahir: Kuch nahi...

Veer: Kya aisa to nahi socha na ki hum teri help karne ki jagah teri crush chura lenge?🙄 (Acha idea diya Mahir ko Veer.)

Mahir: Ha..haa exactly yahi laga.

All 3: Kya?

Mahir: Aur kya? Kya pata mere se pahle tum hi uss par chance mar lete to? Mera kya hota?

Raghav: Tu aise kaise soch sakta hai?

Mahir: Kyu tum log girlfriend banane ke liye desperate nahi ho?

Vikrant: Hai par

Mahir: Kya par? Veer tujhe koi sundar larki milegi to kya tu chance chorega kisi bhi hal mein?

Veer: Naaahh!

Mahir: To phir? Sabse pahle tu hi try karta Bela pe.

Veer: Yes maybe!

Mahir: Aur Vikrant aur Raghav tum log batao tumhe 1% bhi lagta ki chance hai meri jagah to chorte chance?

Both: Nahi!

Veer: Chal koi naa... Valid reason tha naa batane ka. Maaf kiya chal. Kyu bhaiyo?

Both: Ha..ha maaf kiya.

Mahir thinks: Kaise kamine hai ye? Seedha seedha bol rahe hai meri biwi pe try karte.😒
Bela se inko rakhi bandhwani paregi.

Kitna mushkil hota hai yaar jhoot bolna. Kitna dimaag lagana parta hai. Itni mehnat karni par rahi hai Ritik bhai aapki wagah se. Milo aap! Batata hu phir aapko.😡

Vikrant: Kya soch raha hai? Aage bata.

Mahir: Aage kya batau?

Veer: Ye to crush tha vo nahi batane ka reason tha.

Raghav: Ab shaadi ki story bata aur hame ignore karne ka.

Vikrant: Ha invite kar leta shaadi mein to 100 logo ka khaana hum akele nahi kha jate.

Mahir: Tum log Bhai ki shaadi mein invited the.

Veer: Vo to tere bhai ki shaadi thi na. Teri shaadi meim to invited nahi the?

Mahir: Meri shaadi bhi same day same mandap mein hui hai.

Vikrant: Par humne to nahi dekhi na?

Mahir: To kisne bola tha khaana khate hi 9 bje bhaag jane ko?

Veer: Tune bataya hota teri shaadi hai to naa jate. Teri bhai ki shaadi mein hum kya karte?

Raghav: Aur tu to tha bhi nahi waha.

Mahir: Baarat late ho gayi thi.

(Thinks in mind) Itna khatarnak interrogation to vo nakchari Vish aur Meera bhi nahi kar rahi hongi Bela ka. Kaha phas gaya main?🤦🏻‍♂️

Andy sensed from Mahir's expressions that something is wrong and he might tell everything in pressure. So he went to him.

Andy: Mahir where is your wife?

Mahir looks here and there: Yahi kahi hogi.

Andy: Go find her. Mrs Kakkar was asking for her.

Mahir nodded and Andy left. He understood Andy came to help him because they haven't invited anyone with last name Kakkar. He mentally thanked his father.

Mahir: Dekho dosto mujhe jana hoga. Bela pata nahi kaha chali gayi.  But long story in short maine mauka dekh ke Bela ko bata diya mujhe achi lagti hai aur usne bhi bola usse bhi main acha laga. Hamari baate bade logo ne sunn li aur vahi hamari bhi shaadi fix ho gayi. The end...

Okay bye...

Before they could say anything he ran from there. He directly went to his room to avoid his friends for sometime and found another querrel going on there.

Bela: Bas 1 limit hoti hai. Aap Mahir ke peeche hi par gayi. Itni hi problem thi to bhaagi kyu? Aapki wagah se hi Mahir mera pati hai bhulo mat.

Vish & Meera: Bhaagi?

Meera: Kya bola tune Bela bhaag gayi?

Vish: Ye bhaag gayi thi.

Bela: Naaahii! Maine aishe nahi bola.😓

Mahir: (Slowly) Isi ki kami thi.🤦🏻‍♂️ (Loudly) Bela yaha kya kar rahi ho? Mom bula rahi hai tumhe aao.

Bela nodded: Aai...

She ran out from room and Mahir followed her.

Vish: Bela!

Meera to Shivi: Tum bhaag gayi thi?

Shivi: (arrogantly) Ha main bhaag gayi thi. Toh?

She too left from there.

Vish & Meera to Bela & Shivi's mother: Aunty?

Sunita: Sab batati hu beta. Sab batati hu.
