Ruhana's POV

I still can't believe my sister fell in love with a person who is just 24 years old. After years, she found love but it was wrong. This is unacceptable for me, how is this even possible?

He is still young and Manvi is in her middle age, their thoughts and differences are too much.

Vineet entered the room and I said "Vineet iss ladki ko samjhao isne socha bhi kaise? Khushi us ladke se 10 saal choti hai bas.. This is not right"

"Janta hun Ruhana.. Aarav se mila hun main wo acha ladka hai Khushi se acha bond hai uska par Manvi se pyaar.. Iss baat pe abtak vishwaas nahi ho raha hai mujhe" he said, being in dilemma.

"Vineet.. Maine hamesha chaha mannu phirse apni zindagi shuru kare itne saal baad use wahi mila.. No this is impossible" I said.

"Lekin khushi toh use accept kar chuki hai Ruhana.." He spoke..

I glanced at him and said "bachi hai wo abhi... Aarav kaise sambhalega tum hi batao? Hamari mannu usse bahut kam jeeyegi.. Ye rishta nahi nibhega.. Dono mei bahut farak hai"

"Jaanta hun Roo.. par ye sach hai na dono pyaar karte hai ek dusre se" he said.

"Ye mazak nahi hai Vineet.. Pyar karna aur zindagi bhar saath nibhane mein farak hota hai.. Kal agar uski family ne sawal uthaye soceity ne unhe taane maare toh wo usko chod sakta hai.. Main nhi chahti meri behen phirse toot jaye no mannu ko ye rishta yahi khatam karna hoga" I declared my decision.

Vineet gave me a thoughtful look. He said "main manvi ko samjhane ki koshish karta hun"

I nodded in yes..

"Abhi rehendo Vineet.. Kal subah baat karenge" I said, he agreed.

At night, I tried to sleep but sleep was away from my eyes. Manvi's words were echoing in my ears.

"Di bas ho gaya usse pyaar"

The next morning, I got freshened up and moved out of the room. Manvi was sitting on the couch, as soon as I walked towards the kitchen she stood up and said "Di.. suno.."

"Mannu mujhe iss baare mein baat nahi karni hai.. Tum Aarav se koi rishta nahi rakhogi ye mera final decision hai" I declared.

She was shocked hearing me and said "no Di.. aisa mat kaho aap chahte they na main aage badhu aur jab main badhna chahti hun toh aap hi mera saath nahi de rahe ho"

"Main raazi hoti Mannu agar tumne ek sensible, apne umar ke ladke se pyaar kiya hoga naaki ki apne se 18 saal chote ladke se.." I said angrily.

"Di.. please aisa aap toh mat kaho" She spoke.

"Aaj main kah rahi hun uski family bhi yahi kahegi... kal society kahegi kis kisko samajhati firogi tum? Aur wo Khushi ka father kaise ban sakta hai Manvi? Tujhe ye sab sochna chahiye tha pyaar karne se pehle" I said briefly.

"Socha tha Di.. usse kaha tha maine tumhara aur mera pyaar nahi ho sakta.. Bahut samajhaya usko par wo zid pe ada raha upar terrace se khudne ko taiyar ho gaya.. Main nahi rok paayi aur kar baithi usse pyaar" She said with teary eyes.

"Jab aapne meri shaadi ki baat kahi chalani chahi waha beizaati hi mili.. Ladke se bhi par wo usne toh mujhe jeena sikhaya di.. Mere gusse ke peeche chipe dard ko samjha usne toh kaise nahi pyaar hota mujhe usse?" she said with a heavy voice.

I was listening to her silently.

"Usne meri khushi ki jaan bachayi.. Khushi bhi jab uske saath hoti hai wo khush rehti hai.. Please di... ek baar usse millo.." she requested me.

"Mannu ek baar kaha na maine no means no" I denied sternly.

Manvi's POV

I sighed in disappointment, I decided to convince Vineet. He was ready to leave for office, I said to drop me too. He agreed and we went out of the house.

He drove the car and I sat beside me, I looked at him "jiju.. Aarav.."

"Manvi.. Ye possible nahi hai" he gave me an instant reply.

"Jiju possible ho sakta hai agar aap aur Di maan jaye toh" I said with a hope.

"Manvi tum samajh nahi rahi ho, tumhe socha chahiye tha pyaar karne se pehle ek baar" He spoke.

"Pyaar soch samajh ke nahi hota hai jiju.. Bas ho jaata hai office mein sab mujhse baat karne se darte they par wo mujhe kuch bhi kehne ki himmat rakhta tha.. He change me jiju aur sabse badi baat wo khushi ka pehle dost hai aur aap hi kehte ho na father hone se pehle beti ka dost banna zaroori hota hai" I said briefly, looking at him with a hope.

He listened to me silently, it has been 5 minutes since I had not heard his reply. I asked "bolo na jiju..."

He stopped the car in front of my office, "office aa gaya hai tumhara go" he spoke.

I sighed in disappointment and stepped out of the car, closing the door hardly. I went inside the office in a bad mood.

I marched inside my cabin and found Aarav sitting on the table. He smiled at me and said "Good morning, aapne kaha tha maine sab correction kardi hai aur submit bhi kar diya hai"

I just sat down on my chair disturbed. He looked at me and questioned "kya hua?? Aaj tumhara mood kyun off hai?"

"Jaise tumhe pata nahi" I replied, giving him a look.

Aarav smiled and said "mujhe pata hai.. Khushi ne mujhe phone karke bata diya tha"

I sighed deeply, he then pulled my chair towards him and lifted my face with his finger. I looked up at him "ye expected tha Manvi.. Tum please upset mat ho maan jayenge" he said positively.

I nodded in affirmatively and smiled when he cracked a joke.

It has been a week since I am trying to convince Di and Jiju but they are determined at their decision. But, I am adamant person they have to accept my relation with Aarav.

One evening, I returned home and was shocked seeing Khushi angry. I asked "kya hua Khushi?"

"Mumma please don't interrupt.," she said angrily.

"Bade papa.. Maasi maanti hun wo khushi ke generation ke hai par he is very much matured and sensible wo khushi ki har zaroorat puri karte hai jaise aap karte ho bade papa.." she said.

I interrupted.. "Khushi aise baat nahi karte.."

"please mumma.. maine kaha na aap beech mein mat bolo" Khushi spoke angrily. 

"Khushi dekho ye rishta work nahi karega it's impossible ye baat tum bhi ache se samajhlo aur apni mumma ko bhi samjha do" Ruhana said 

"samajhna aapko hai maasi.." Khushi said.. 

"Khushi dekho hum samajhte hai par ye.." Vineet's words were left incomplete. 

She sighed.. "Thik hai.. Bade papa massi aapko nahi maanna hai na toh jabtak aap dono maante nahi Khushi aur mumma aapse nahi milenge" she said adamantly.

I was shocked.. "Khushi tum.."

She held my hand and started walking out of the room. I just could not utter a word. We reached our flat, Khushi went inside the room closing the door behind.

She was upset, because Ruhana and Vineet were not convinced. I sighed, the whole day she was quiet and I was missing her. 

I knocked the door "Khushi darwaza khol beta please" 

But she was not replying. 

I hated her silence, I called Di and informed her about Khushi.

"Di.. aapko pata hai wo kitni ziddi hai kuch kha pee nahi rahi hai" I said in low tone

"Offo.. main aur tumhare jiju aate hai waha usse baat karne" she informed.

I nodded in yes and ended the call. After 15 minutes there was a ring at the door. I opened the door and was left surprised seeing Aarav.

To be continued... 

Will they agree to Aarav Manvi's relationship or they will part away?
