Both gautam and Shiva looked at each other and smiled..
Gautam - tu bol pehle kya baat ha.?

Shiva diverted his gaze from his brother and spoke..

Shiva - bht kuch badal gaya ha gaumbi..
Kuch theek krne jata hu toh aur bikhar jata ha..
Kya karu mai ?

Gautam looked at shiva , and a smile formed his lips..

He was Happy that finally shiva was realising that he needs to do something..

Gautam - shiva , kabhi koi cheez itni nhi bikharti ki use Sameta naa jaa ske..
Main janta hu tu kis baare main baat kr rha ha is liye bol rha hu.. Aabhi bhi bht kuch ha jo bikhra nhi ha..

Shiva - aagr ha toh dekh Kyu nhi rha ha gaumbi mujhe..

Gautam - kyuki pehle toh gusse main tha aur aab guilt main ha..
Pehle teri ankho ke aage gussa chaya tha , zid chai thi aur aab jb tu kahi na kahi ye dekh rha ha ki tune jo kiya ,jo soch ke kiya wo hua hi nhi aur tujhe hakikat dekh rhi ha toh aab guilt chai ha.. Shiva zaroori nhi ha ki hum har baar sahi hi ho..
Main nhi janta tune itna kuch kyu kiya ,kya wajah thi pr itna zaroor pata ha ki jo bhi wajah thi wo kamyab nhi hui ha..
Main jnta hu tu pyaar krta ha Raavi se..

Shiva looked at gautam shocked , while gautam gave him a smile and said

Gautam - Aisa kya dekh rha ha bhai hu tera aur main kya pura ghar jnta ha ye baat aab..
Shiva main nhi jnata tune kyu kiya wo sb.. Jisse pyaar krta ha usse hi itna hurt kiya Kyu akhir..
Pr main ye zaroor janta hu ki tu wo sb sudhara chatah ha..

Shiva nodded his head while a tear escaped his eyes..

Both again went silent..
While Shiva kept thinking , gautam gave him the time to think..

They both again stood in silence when shiva said

Shiva - gaumbi jb aap galti krte ho toh maafi kaise mangte ho..?

Gautam smiled at him and turned around supporting his back on the railing..

Gautam - jb mai. Galat hota hu toh bas dil se maafi mangta hu..
Mujhe itne salo main ye samajh aaya ha ki agar aap kisi ke samne apna dil khol ke rakh dete ha..
Apne dil ke jazbat ko bina kisi filter ke ek aaine ke jaise samne wale ko dekhte ha toh wo usse smaajh jata ha..
Tune raavi ko bht hurt kiya h and I know usne bhi bht hurt kiya ha.. And sach kahu toh tum dono ki 90% takleef is wajha se thi ki tumne kabhi bhi ek dusre ko apne dil ki baat batai hi nhi...
Maafi mangna bht badi cheez hoti ha shiva pr usse bhi zyada badi cheez hoti ha galti realise krna..
Tujhe agar apni galti realise ho.gai ha toh aadhi Jung toh tu jeet chuka ha na..

Maafi ye soch ke nhi mangte ha ki samne wala maaf karega ki nhi.
Maafi dil se mangte ha bina kisi umeed ke..
Saaf dil se , apne dil ki baat usse samjhayega toh duniya ki koi bhi cheez usse tujhe samajhne se nhi rok payegi..
Tujhe agar lg rha ha ki tune raavi ka dil dukhaya ha usse takleef di ha toh , us ki bharpai kar aab..
Ussi jitni takleef di ha usse zyada pyaar de , usse aaj tk samjha nhi ha toh aab usse samajh.. Uska haath jhatka ha toh aab uska haat tham aur aisa tham ki kuch bhi ho jaiye wo haath naa chute..

Tu sb sudhara chatha ha ,sb theek krna chatha ha toh bas ek change de , aage bad... Tu ek Kadam le shiva aur phir dekhna sb khud ba khud hi clear hota jaiyega..
Hum insaan hamesha apna pyaar chupate ha pr narazgi wo nhi.. Aur aachi baat bhi ha narazgi chupani nhi chaiyea agar gussa ha toh bata do , narazgi ha toh jata do.. Aur dekha jaiye toh log sahi khethe ha pyaar batane wali cheez nhi ha.. Aap kisi se kitna pyaar krte ha ye cheez dekh jati ha apki ankho main apke actions mai.. Pr kabhi kabhi pyaar krte ha toh bata dena chaiyea kyuki usse samne wale ko aacha feel hota ha..
Main jnta hu tu expressive nhi ha aur main kahungi bhi nhi ki tu raavi ko hamesh I love you bol , mat bol hamesha, pr hamesha kuch aisa kr Jisse usse Samjah aa jaiye ki tu usse kitna pyaar krta ha ,  haa kabhi kabhi usse wo shabd bol de taki usse wo shad sunke sukoon mil sake..
Hum kitni baar I love you bolte ha wo matter nhi krta ha.. Hum kitna usse mean krte ha bina bole bhi wo matter krta ha...

Raavi ne hamesh sirf pyaar chaha ha shiva aur aab jb tujhe samajh aa gaya ha ji tu usee pyaar krta ha main chatah hu ki tu usse itna pyaar de ki uski saari khawaish puri ho jai...

Saying that gautam patted Shiva's back...

Shiva's pov

I stood silently , analysing everything gaumbi said..
He is right , I can't thing about the result and then ask forgiveness..
My forgiveness should be pure without any expectations..
I love her and I will do anything for her..
I was still thinking when gaumbi said lightly..

Gautam - mat soch itna shiva..
Jitna sochega utna ye cheez pareshan karegi..
Tu bas apne dil ki baat raavi se khe de , jo ha wo khe..
Tu agar dil saaf rakh ke usse baat krega toh wo baat sunegi bhi aur samjhegi bhi..
Main tujhe itna hi kahungi ki jo daar tere maan main ha naa wo mat rakh.. Humne raavi ki bhi ankhe dekhi ha..
Saachi se tum dono bhag rhe the hum nhi...
Pr aab bhagna band kr de, tujhe apne  rishte ko sambhale ke liye jo krna pade kar jana..

Usse humne sbne jane anjane main bht hurt kiya ha , jb hurt krne ke waqt itna nhi socha toh maafi mangte waqt kyu...
Tu bas apne pyaar pe bharosha rakh , phir tujhe kisi cheez ke baare main itna nhi sochna padega...

I looked at him and nodded..
Yes I will trust my love , I will have faith in my love..
I know what gaumbi meant why saying that we both were running away from the truth..
All these years I have given her pain , but now now i will fill her life with happiness...

And suddenly I felt a new determination inside me..
It felt as if I wasn't scared about anything..

I immediately hugged gaumbi thanking him, while he chuckled and said

Gautam - maine tujhe kuch aisa nhi kaha jo tujhe pta nhi ha , pr kabhi kabhi Hume wo baatein jo pta bhi hoti ha, jin baato se hum wakif hote ha unhe bhi kabhi kabhi kisi aur ke muh se sunna aur samajhna hota ha..

I hummed in response while , gaumbi continued to part my back..
No matter what taking to gaumbi has eased me..
The fact that he came and stood there for me listening and talking felt really good..

We both pulled away after a while..
When I asked

Shiva - waise aap bhi kuch bol rhe the kya hua ?

I saw gaumbi taking a Deep breath and said

Gautam - haa main jo baat krne aaya tha wo tune hi kar di..
Shiva tu kya krne wala ha nhi pta pr yaad rakhna hi tera bada bhai hamesha tere saath khada ha..
Maine galti ki ha tujhse baat naa krke , tere nazariye se cheezo ko naa soch ke and I am sorry pr aab tera ye bhai tere saath ha..
Tujhe jo krna ha tu kr..
Jaise krna ha tu kr bas mujhe mere ye shiva raavi saath chaiyea..
Ladte jhagarte pyaar krte...

Saying that he left from there while I continued to say there and think..

It was almost morning when I went down..
As soon as I stepped Inside the room , I saw raavi sleeping cutely..

Immediately I went towards her and Sat down on the bed..
Her hair were falling on her face disturbing her sleeps , so I quietly I pushed them behind her ears and gently stroke her cheeks saying

Shiva - mujhe maaf kr de raavi..
Main itna galat kr diya tere saath ye soch ke ki sahi kr rha hu ki mujhe tere ansoo dekh hi nhi rhe the..
Main apne hi gusse mai tha..
I am so sorry...
Pr aab main tujhe aur takleef nhi dunga and I promise jo jo tujhe takleef dega usse bhi lad jaunga..
I love you raavi aur in shabdo ko main tere liye bht khubsurat baan dunga I promise...

Saying that I carefully placed a kiss on her forehead and walked away , planning about how I will have a talk with her..

It was karvachaut the next day and all the pandya's were planning for it , except suman who had went to kanta kaki's house for some reason and shiva who  went somewhere about which only gaumbi knew..

They all were done with planning the lights and everything and were now looking for some saree when shiva walked in..

His eyes went wide looking at so much saree but without saying anything he went and Sat near raavi who completely avoided him and moved a little away from him..

Gautam chuckled looking at the pout on Shiva's face but instantly covered it..

Shiva wanting to know the reason of all these asked

Shiva - ye sb kya ha kuch ha kya ?

Rishita - haa kal karvachaut ha..

Shiva's eyes lit up hearing that and he instantly turned toward raavi asking

Shiva - tb toh tu bhi mere liye vrat rakhegi? Saree select kr li tune? Ruk main krta hoo..  Main bhi vrat rakhunga tere liye..
Lambi umar toh biwi ki bhi honi chaiyea naa warna pati akele kya kya karega.

Dev , krish , rishita , dhara and specially raavi's eyes went wide hearing him..

Did they heard him right ?
Is this their shiva ?

Gautam laughed looking at the shocked faces of everyone which brought them out from their shock..

Rishita kept her hand on Shiva's forehead as if checking his temperature and said

Rishita - shiva tu raavi ke liye saare select karega ? Aur vrat bhi rakhega.. Bhoolna rahega pura din?
Tu ? Shiva ? Shiva pandya ?

Shiva instant of replying just smiled at her and started looking for a saree..
All these while raavi kept looking at him not knowing what Exactly he was doing.. But the thought that he was looking for a saree for her of his choice and the mare thought that he would keep a fast for her made her heart swell...

After almost 10 minutes , shiva picked up one saree of yellow colour and placed it on raavi's shoulder and nodding within himself he said

Shiva - ye le , ye tujh pe aachi lagegi... Mere pass ek yellow kurta ha main wo pehnuga.. Hum twin karenge.. Couple goals..

Krish who was drinking water Split that out on dev who Sat infront of him making him curse krish in return..
While gautam looked at him with satisfaction , that finally shiva was doing something.. Dhara and rishita looked shocked again with the fact that shiva was kind of flirting with raavi that too infront of everyone..

Not able to control any further raavi asked him

Raavi - kya ha ye sb shiva ?

Shiva looked at her knowing the depth of her question but he didn't wanted to tell her anything now..

So he simply said

Shiva - kuch nhi pati patni ha naa hum toh twin krna toh banta ha..

Before he could say anything further raavi said

Raavi - talak hone wala ha ...

Shiva - hua thodi ha Aabhi , aur hone wali cheez hogi ki nhi kya pta..
Tu wo sb chod chai peyegi ?
Aap log chai peeyoge..

He said looking at everyone who absent mindedly nodded at him..

Shiva - chal dev chai banate ha..

(Authros note - in my story shiva knows how to cook because that will be Used in future )

Saying that shiva got up and pulled dev along with him while looking at gautam who nodded at him..

Here gautam looked at raavi who had a confused expression on her face.. And gautam realised that raavi was too naive to realise the depth meaning of Shiva's words.. He turned to look at dhara and rishita only to find them looking at him with a raised eyebrows..
But not wanting to speaking anything infront of raavi and spoil Shiva's plan , he nodded at them as if saying that he will tell them later on..

Dhara looked at Raavi and seeing her rotted in her place she said

Dhara - raavi , aaja ek aur saree dekh le..
2 saare ki zaroorat padegi..

Raavi who was about to moved ahead stopped when she heard suman's voice..

Suman - eee iske kyu zaroorat padegi shaadi ki ?

Suman who was entering the house heard dhara and asked her..
Disha was along with her..
Krish and rishita realised a irritated sign seeing disha while raavi again looked hurt..
The way shiva has changed himself for disha that thought was back to her..

Dhara looked at suman and said

Dhara - kyu Mtlb ? Maa uske vrat krna ha toh kyu nhi?

Suman -/aur ye markundi gai kyu vrat karegi ?

Before dhara could say rishita spoke

Rishita - kyuki maa wo shiva ki patni ha..
Patni hi vrat krti ha na pati ke liye toh raavi karegi..

Suman - aacha wo patni jiska talak hone wala ha uske pati se..

Raavi felt her inside crawl when she heard again about the divorce..
Just few minutes back shiva was there for here helping her and yet again the truth about their marriage was thrown at her like a slap...
She came out of her thinking when she heard suman spek
Ye vrat nhi karegi.. Disha rakhegi shiva ke liye vrat...

Suman said shocking everyone..

Raavi looked at disha to see her smiling at suman and the thought that she will keep a fast for shiva made her want to just beat her...

Here suman moved towards raavi and said.

Suman - is saree pe jo tere haath main ha  aur shiva pe dishu ka haq ha tera nhi samjhi tu..
Tu bas Yaha dhara ki madad krne aai ha..
Uski madad kr..
Jb rishta tha tb toh shiva ki patni ban nhi saki aur aab jb tutne wala ha toh patni ban rhi ha..
Kaan khol ke sun lo sb
Disha aur shiva ki shaadi hone wali ha is liye vrat disha rakhegi ye nhi..
Dishu wo saree lele isse...

Suman asked disha who moved towards raavi making raavi's hold on the saree tighten..
She kept looking at the saree and the memory of shiva selecting it for her and his statement kept running in her mind..

Here Disha was about to take the saree from raavi's hand when a hand pulled raavi behind...

The end....
