When Shravani reached home she found Shivi already waiting for her.

Shravani," Shivi tu?"

Her chachi came and said in her ear loudly although she thought she was keeping her voice low," Tab se bethi hai aake. Ye nahi kuch kaam mein madd hi karde. 2 cup chai ke pee gayi khud bana ke aur mujhse pucha bhi nahi ke piyogi chachi ji aap chai?"

Shivi," Har baar to aap bolte ho jo bhi kaam hai khud kar. To bana li apne aap chai. Par maine bola tha chai bana rahi hu. Tab bol deti peeni hai aapko."

Chachi," Main tujh se baat nahi kar rahi. Huhh!😒"

Shivi," Mujhe bhi nahi karni. Huhh!😒"

Shravani," Aap dono laro mat."

Chachi," Larai main nahi ye kar rahi hai. Main to tujhe teri saheli ki kartoot(deed) tujhe bata rahi thi."

Shivi," Usse batana nahi kaan bharna (fill ear) kahte hai. Chugalkhor chachi!😒"

Chachi," Kya boli?😡"

Shivi," Shravu lagta hai chachi ji ko sunai nahi diya. Lagta hai tujhe inhe kaan(ear) ki machine (hearing machine) kharid ke deni paregi."

Chachi," Mere ghar mein aake meri bezzati karne wali tu hoti ko hai?"

Shivi," Yaddasht bhi chali gayi. Mera naam bhul gayi. Shravu inko badam bhi kharid ke dene honge tujhe.

Bahut kharcha karwayegi yaar ye. Tu 1 hafta(week) chor kal hi shift karle yaha se."

Shravani closed her eyes and hid her face in het plans," Shivanya! Ye kya kiya! Aaah!😠"

Shivi," Sorry! Nikal gaya muh se.😅"

Chachi," Shift? Kaha shift? Aur kyu?"

Shravani," Chachi vo..😰"

Chachi," Kya vo?"

Shravani," Main..main... ghar shift kar rahi hu?"

Chachi," Achanak se kaha shift karna hai aur kyu? Aur kaha?"

Shravani," Vo😥"

Chachi shouted making Shravani scared," Bolll!"

Shravani," Unke ghar."

Chachi," Unke kinke?"

Shravani," Unke?"

Chachi," Konn?"

Shravani," Mere vo..."

Chachi," Kya vo? Naam bol tere kon?"

Shravani," 😰 Mere p"

Shivi interrupts," Kyu darr rahi hai? Apne naye makan malik(landlord) ka naam bata na."

Shravani," Vahi to bol rahi hu mere"

Shivi," Inhe chor mujhe bata. Kon vo?"

Chachi," Naam batane mein itni hichkichahat kyu? Kya chakkar hai?😡"

Shravani," Mr. Sehgal ke ghar."

Shivi," Kon Sehgal?"

Shravani," Vo"

Shivi," Phir vo...😒 Main maarugi ab naam nahi liya to."

Shravani," Main unka naam nahi ke sakti."

Shivi," Kyu?"

Shravani closed her eyes and takes deep breath and thought," Kaise lu apne pati ka naam? Aur kaise batau inn dono ko ki apne sasural shift kar rahi hu. Ye dono to kuch nahi jante. Kaise batau? Par sach nahi chupa sakti.
Relax Shravani! Relax! Unhone bola tha unke parents ye baat sambhal lenge. Unko call karti hu."

Chachi," Kya hua? Khare khare so gayi?"

Shravani," Main 2 min mein aayi."

She ran inside.

Chachi," Kaha jaa rahi hai."

Shivi," Dara diya na. Kya zarurat thi itna chillane ki."

Shravani locks her room from inside and calls Krish but his phone was in behir's room as after returning home Bela gathered her both children in her room.

In behir's room Bela was sitting angrily glaring at Mahir for scolding her in office and Mahir was sitting with apologetic face.

Mahir," Sona suno!"

Bela snapped," Kon Sona?"

Mahir tries to hold her hand but she hit him," Maine jo bola"

Bela," Mujhe nahi sunna. Tumne bola nahi chillaya. How can you? Tum mujh par kaise gussa kar sakte ho Mahi?"

Mahir," I am sorry.😣 Main gussa nahi karna chahta tha par"

Bela interrupts," Nahi! (In low voice) Tumne mujhe daata? mujhe?🥺 Baat mat karo mujhse.😡"

Mahir," Please ek baar"

Krish's phone rings due to which Mahir couldn't complete.

Bela," Krish ka phone aa raha hai?"

Mahir," Kaha par hai?"

They looked here and there and found Krish's phone under pillow.

Bela," Shravani ka hai. Krish ko de aao phone."

Mahir," Vo so(sleep) raha hai. Aap baat karlo."

Bela nods and received the call and put phone on speaker.

Shravani in frightened voice," He..hello!"

Bela," Kya hua Shravani?"

Mahir," Tum itni dari hui kyu ho?"

Shravani," Vo meri friend Shivi ke muh se chachi ke aage nikal gaya main shift kar rahi hu ghar. Vo puch rahi hai kyu kar rahi hu? Kaha par? Kiske ghar? Kya bolu unhe? Kaise batau sach? Vo mujhe galat samjhengi. Bahut gussa karengi.

Aapke bete ke kahne par maine meri friend Shivi ko aadha sach bataya ki main bas chachi ke ghar ke kahi shift kar rahi hu kyuki ab main achi jagah job karti hu to achi jagah rent afford kar sakti hu kyuki chachi thora... Par main ye chachi ko to nahi bol sakti na. Jo bhi ho hai meri chachi. Chache jaisi bhi hai meri family ke naam par ek vo hi akeli hai. Par unko sach bhi kaise batau? Kaya karu main?🥺"

Shivi and chachi came to Shravani's door and knocked," Darwaza khol. Kya hua?"

Shravani," Chachi aur Shivi bahr hai. Jadli bataiye na main kya karu? Kya bolu unhe?"

Mahir," Relax Shravani! Sabse pahle jaake darwaza kholo. Vo dono pareshan ho rahe honge."

Bela," Kya bolna hai uski tension mat lo. Main aur Mahir aake baat karege tumhari chachi se aur sab batayege. "

Mahir," I am sure vo samjhegi."

Shravani," Nahi! Vo nahi samjhegi. Vo mujhe galat samjhegi aur aap sabko bhi. Mujhe darr hai kuch ulta seedha na bol de vo ya kuch kar de."

Mahir," Sach to batana parega na Sharavni. Vo tumhari chachi hai. Abhi to tumhe kaha tumhari family mein sirf vahi hai."

Shravani couldn't control and started crying.

Bela," Shravani..Sharavni..Shravani relax. Isme rone ki kya baat hai?"

Shravani while sobbing," Aa..aap me..meri ch..chachi ko nahi jante. Vo..vo bahut gussa karti hai aur..aur"

Mahir," Aur kya?"

Bela slowly," Mahir nahi... Bataya tha na Satish ne ki iski chachi ki thinking thori."

Shivi bangs loudly at door.

Mahir," Bete jaake darwaza kholo aur ghabrao mat."

Sharavni shouts," Main thek hu chachi aur Shivu. Abhi thori der mein aai. Pareshan mat ho aap dono."

Shivi," Pakka na?"

Shravani," Ha pakka wala pakka."

Chachi," Thek hai... Jaldi aa..."

Both went away.

Shravani," Kaise? Kya bolu unko? Mujhe bahut darr lag raha hai."

Mahir," Be brave Shravani. Darte vo hai jinhone kuch galat kaam kara ho. Tumne kuch galat nahi kara."

Bela," Yes!"

Shravani," Kya galat nahi kara? Maine apni shaadi ki baat chupai hai. Vo galat hai."

Mahir," Ha vo galat tha par halat hi kuch aise the. Aur galti sirf tumhari nahi Krishna ki thi. Usne hi bola tha abhi mat batao aur tumne sirf uski baat maani hai. So don't worry."

Bela," Ha! Mera Krish na thora buddhu hai. Usse der se samj mein aati hau baate. Galti uski bhi nahi hai. Apne papa par jo gaya hai."

Shravani chucked.

Mahir," Sona!😣"

Bela," Baad mein rona. Abhi baat kar rahe hai na Shravani se. Uski problem solve kare?"

Mahir," Hmm...😕"

Bela," Shravani tum zyada hi darr rahi ho. Darna tumhe nahi mere bete aur unn gundo ko chaiye. Ab jo ho gaya usse badla nahi jaa sakta. Par aage ka dekh sakte hai."

Mahir," Shravani shanti se soch ke bolo kya tum apni Chachi ko shaadi ke bare mein nahi batana chahti?"

Shravani," Main unse sach nahi chupna chahti par bata bhi nahi sakti."

Bela," Mahir baat serious to hai. Hum soch to rahe hai iski chachi se aaram se baat karke samjhayege par unhone iss baat ko positively na liya to? Idhar udhar hamare bare mein kuch galat bol diya aur media tak koi galat baat pauch gayi to? You know inke lift mein band hone ki baat leak ho gayi thi. Vo to Karan ne handle kar liya sahi time pe."

Mahir," Baat to sahi hai par phir kya kare? Inka rishta kab tak chupaye? Duniya walo se to thek hai par iski chachi aur friend se?"

Bela," Rishta nahi chupayege but batayege alag tarike se."

Shravani," Matlab jhoot bolege?"

Bela," Nahi! Mahir mere mann mein kuch time se 1 baat hai."

Mahir," Kya?"

Bela," Mere chote se Krishu ne shaadi kar li Mahi aur maine dekhi bhi nahi.😕 I missed my son's wedding baby."

Mahir cleared his throat,"😳 Bahu sunn rahi hai Sona. Bolne se pahle socho😐"

Shravani wanted to say it's fine but she too got shy to speak.

Bela," I meant that shaadi mein hame bhi to dekhni chaiye na. Live...apni aankhon se."

Mahir," Ha par ab to ho gayi shaadi."

Bela," To dobara karwao na inki shaadi.😕"

Mahir and Shravani at same time, Kya?"

Bela," Ha! Mujhe mere Krishu ko ghori charte dekhna hai. Mahir dono ki phir se shaadi hogi."

Mahir," Par?"

Bela," Mujhe nahi pata. Kuch bhi Karo aur karwao. Maa(Sumi) se permission lo jaake."

Mahir," Par "

Bela," Kya par? Kuch par nahi. Sshh! Chup!🤫

Shravani tum apna darr nikal do. Main aur Mahir aake kal tumhari chachi se tumhara hath mangege. Tum dono na rishta sabke samne aayega par izzat se."

Shravani," Par vo(Krish) manege kya?"

Mahir," Thora time lega par maan jayega."

Bela," Tum maan gaye Mahir? Tumhe dobara shaadi se koi problem nahi hai?"

Mahir," Kaise problem Sona? Konsa baap apne bete ki shaadi apne samne hote huye nahi dekhna chahega? Par ye shaadi tab tak nahi hogi jab tak Krishna dil se Sharvani ko apni patni naa maan le. We will wait till then."

Shravani," Par unhone to aaj hi bola hai apne bags pack karlo aur jaldi se jaldi mere ghar shift karlo. Iska matlab unhone mujhe patni maan liya."

Mahir," Kyuki usse subah sham uski maa aur dadi se daat parti hai. Don't take it on your heart Shravani but usne isliye maana hai because usse lag raha hai uske ghar wale bol rahe hai matlab yahi sahi hai aur sach hai. Jo baat sahi hai usse manne mein aur dil se manne mein difference hota hai. Tum ye baat abhi nahi samjhogi. Just give some time."

Shravani," To main apne bags naa pack karu?😕"

Bela," Nahi! (While glaring at Mahir) Ye to kuch bhi bol rahe hai. Bataya tha na abhi dono baap bete ek jaise hai.😠"

Mahir," Shravani tum shift karne ki preprations karo. What I meant was abhi shaadi ki baat hum sirf tumhari chachi se karege, Krishna se nahi. He will need some time to process everything."

Shravani," Shaadi se pahle shift thori karne dengi vo mujhe?"

Bela," Leave that on us. We will handle. Jaisa ki kisi insan ne abhi abhi bola ki shaadi abhi nahi kuch months baad hogi."

Mahir," Kisi insan kya? Maine bola... Main kisi hu?"

Bela ignores him," But before that you need to know each other not as boss and secretary. Har kisi ke case mein office mein time spend karna kaam nahi karta. Tum dono ka case alag hai. Tum dono ko time lag jayega aur itna time nahi hoga jaise ki tumhari chachi se hum baat karne wale hai. She will not wait for long."

Shravani," Mujhe kuch samj nahi aa raha aap kya bol rahe ho?"

Mahir," Beta mujhe bhi samj nahi aa raha."

Bela," Naa samj mein aane wali kya baat hai yar? Tum dono ek jaise ho. Achi jamegi dono ki."

Mahir," Sona!"

Bela," Okay... Clearly plan suno. Itna bhi kuch complicated nahi hai.

Shravani tumhe bas itna bolna hai bahr jaake ki tumhe tumhare boss ki parents ne apne ghar kiraye pe rehne ka offer diya hai kyuki uss din restaurant mein tumhari friend ne bola tha tumhari chachi tumhare sath bad behave karti hai. Vo iss baat pe gussa hogi par tumpe nahi tumhari friend par. Aur ye mat sochna friend ko daat parwana galat hai. Kabhi kabhi karna parta hai. Tumhari friend samajhdar(tez bolna chah rahi thi) hai samaj jayegi aur baat sambhal legi. Tumhara kaam yaha khatam.

Tumhari chachi ye baat sunn ke mana kar sakti hai shift ko but kal mere aur Mahir se milne ke baad nahi. We will ask your hand for our son. And don't mind jitna humne suna hai uss hisab se vo seedha haa kar degi because hamari company famous hai. Hamari financial condition tumse thori achi hai.

I will say ki main tumhe apne ghar iskiye rakhna chahti hu jisse tumhe aur apne bete ko paas laa saku because vo pyaar aur emotions ke mamle mein thora slow. Aur ye baat vo tumhe na bole. Main unhe bolugi ki jaan ke tumhe maine tumhe tumhari friend ki ye baat bolne par shift hone bola. Asal mein I like you very much and want to make you amd my son familiar with each other jo ki office mein nahi ho sakta. Aur ye ghar par hi possible hai. Paise wale ghar se rishta jodne ke liye vo koi bhi baat maan jayegi. I know tum aisi nahi ho but vo hai I know. Am I right?"

Shravani," Ji! Vo aisi hi hai."

Bela," To kaisa laga mera plan?"

Mahir," Iski chachi aisi baat kaise manegi? Apne ghar ki ladki ko shaadi ke liye aise planning kon manega?"

Bela," Tum se nahi puch rahi Mahir main Sharavni se puch rahi hu. She knows how her chachi is?"

Shravani," Ji! Pakka kuch garbad to nahi hogi na?"

Bela," Nahi! Aur hui bhi to plan B hai tumhara kahi aur shift hona unki nazar mein kisi wagah se. Unka behaviour hi samj lo aur kuch time baad tumhare aur Krish ki shaadi ki news. Direct shaadi mein invite. Is it clear?"

Shravani," ji! Main jaake baat karti hu."

Bela," Good! And don't worry!"

Sharavni," Ji!"

She cut the call.

Mahir," Mujhe ye sab acha nahi lag raha."

Bela," Shut up! Main tumse gussa hu. Baat mat karo."

Mahir," Sona!🤦🏻‍♂️"

He pulls her closer.

After persuading Bela Mahir went to Pari's room to see how she's doing?

She was still asleep. He saw her phone vibrating. Her friend Jasmine was calling her.

Before Mahir can speak she started speaking," Kaha hai Pari? Itni der se call kar rahi hu main. Utha kyu nahi rahi? Rohan ne bhi itne calls kare, uska bhi nahi uthaya. Usne pareshan hoke mujhe call kara. Kitna pareshan hai vo pata hai? Bol bhi ab. Bol kyu nahi rahi?"

Mahir," Bolne ka mauka dogi beta tab hi bolunga."

She got shocked,"😯 Aa..Par..Pa"

Mahir," Main Pari ka papa. Phone silent par tha aur Pari abhi so(sleeping) rahi hai. Isliye phone nahi uthaya. Uthegi to bata dunga."

Jasmine," Okay..."

She was about to cut call but Mahir asked," Rohan kon hai?"

Jasmine,"😰 Vo..vo ha..hamari classss mein hai."

Mahir," Vo pareshan kyu hai? Aur tum itna hakla(stammer) kyu rahi ho?"

Jasmine shouts," Aai mummy! Uncle mummy bula rahi hai, main baad mein baat karti hu. Bye!" (Sacchi mein mummy ne bulaya ya bahana banaya?)

Mahir kept phone back and went out thinking about Jasmine's strange behaviour.

Then he went to Krish's room and saw him sleeping and sit beside him and caressed his hairs lovingly.

Krish felt it and woke up. In hoarse voice he asked," Papa..aap yaha?"

Mahir softly," Shh! So jao... Main aise hi aaya tha."

Krish get up and sit. Mahir picks water glass and hands him. Krish nodded and drink. He cleared his throat and asked Mahir," Aap gussa ho?😕"

Mahir," Nahi!"

Krish," Aap ho..."

Mahir," Nahi hu..."

Krish," Nahi aap ho."

Mahir in stern voice," Krishna!"

Krish looks down," Maine..maine kuch nahi kara. Pari ne maarna shuru kara tha. Main to usse rok raha tha."

Mahir," Ok!"

Krish didn't listened him clearly," Nahi! Maine nahi shuru kiya..1 min kya? Ok?😧"

Mahir," Aur kya bolu?"

Krish," Aap gussa kar"

Mahir interrupts," Nahi! Main idhar aise hi aaya tha. Aur isme naa manne wali baat kya hai? Saaf hai usne hi pahle mara hoga. You are older than her and intelligent and also serious about work right?"

Krish gained some confidence thinking Mahir is in his side," Ha! Main bahut serious rehta hu. Mujhe pata tha office mein clients aane wale the."

Mahir," Ha tumhe pata tha."

Krish nods," Haa!"

Mahir," Phir bhi tumne usse chera. Jaan ke intrigue kara. Aisa kuch bola jaan ke jisse usse gussa aaye aur vo react kare."

Krish's face falls," Nahi!😐"

Mahir pats his cheek," Koi baat nahi. Aage se dhyan rakha. Badi responsibility mili hai kyuki bade ho rahe ho. Bachpana aur masti thek hai par serious time mein nahi. Jagah aur time dekh ke."

Krish," Maine kuch nahi kara."

Mahir softly," Koi baat nahi beta. Main kuch nahi bol raha. Nahi daat raha. Jhoot bolne ki zarurat nahi hai."

Krish," Nahi! Jhoot nahi bol raha. Usne hi aisi nonsense baat start Kari thi. Phir maine answer kiya to shuru ho gayi. Aap usse samjhao."

Mahir," Samjhaunga!"

Krish," Aap gussa nahi ho?"

Mahir," Phir se wahi? Nahi hu main gussa." (Nahi Mahir ek baar daat ke bolo tab samjhega.🤭)

Krish," Aapne office se ghar bheja"

Mahir," Vo zaruri tha."

Krish," Par"

Mahir got up," Relax! Bhul jao jo hua. Aage ka dekho. Thori der aur sona(sleep) hai to so jao. Meeting mein kya hua dinner se pahle discuss kar lenge."

Well moving to Shravani. Let's see what happened when she came out from her room after talking to Behir.
