||ANVI|| I was sitting in the mandap looking at the holy fire burning into Ashes, lost in my thoughts with tears filled eyes . What went wrong? Mere sath hi aisa kyu hua? Maine kisi ka Kya bigada tha, all the thoughts run inside my head as if remembering did I do something wrong to deserve this when a lone tear made it's way out of my eye betraying me.
he murmuring voices of people poring like acid in my ears as if at this very moment, I feel like I must had been deaf,"aree yeh Kya dulha hi nahi aaya,bechari Kya muh dikhayegi abhi samajh mai"one aunty said. "Ha aaya nhi bhag gaya apni mashuka ke sath, sunne mai aaya hai us ladke ki jabardasti shadi karwa rahe the"one replied.
"Heain" she said dramatically as if she got the hot topic for their gossip.
Ha ha bechari ab mandap Mai chori gayi dulhan kehelayegi Kon karega isse Shadi." One said with pity.
Their word stab like a knife in my heart. when I lifted my head all eyes were looking in my direction with pity filled in them. I hate this, I hate that look of someone pity me. I look towards the the direction where my family went with his family with whom I was going to get married and not able to hold back my tear I burst into low sobs. I never felt this miserable in my entire life.
In the office room
"What the hell is this Mr singhania, where the hell is your son" Avinash Mehta anvi's father asked roaring and fuming in anger."I'm sorry Mr Mehta mujhe nhi pata tha Ki aisa kuch hoga Aryan aise bhag Jayega" Mr singhania said lowering his head in utter shame for his son's cheap act.
"Apke sorry se kuch nahi hoga mr singhania, Meri behen waha mandap main akeli baithi Hai sabke beech"Surya said losing his temper "Look Mr singhania I don't know anything mujhe Aryan yaha chahiye Abhi ke Abhi main Meri Beti ko rota nhi dekh sakta, ab mujhe nhi pata aap use Kaise aur Kaha se laoge but I want him here now at any cost"Avinash said his patience thining as he control his urge to destroy the world.
Vani crying in the corner thinking about her daughter and witnessing the scene Infront of her as Saumya was consoling her in her embrace and janvi standing beside her with concern.
Ritesh was standing near Avinash with angry face but consoling his friend to calm down
"Main Kaha se lau usse mujhe pata bhi nhi woh kaha hai" Mr singhania said gesturing his hands. Surya losing his patience held mr singhania from his coller look at him with deadly eyes filled with rage, Mrs singhania witnessing where the conversation is taking turns quickly held Surya's hand and trying to release her husband from his hold "beta choro inhe yeh tumhare pita ke umer ke hai" said panicking and wiggling his hand.
"Pita ke umer ke hai is liye sirf coller pakda hai warna Abhi char feet niche zamin Main hote" he said in a low and dangerous voice. Mr Singhania panicked and requested him to leave him.
"Let him go Surya" Ritesh said feeling the need to talk in between.
"No uncle, Aaj main inhe nahi chorunga jab inhe pata tha inke bete ka chakkar Kisi aur ke sath already chal raha hai toh Meri behen Ki zindagi kharab kyu ki" he shouted making mr singhania and all the ladies flinch present in the room.
"Leave him Surya" Avinash said in dominant tone and Surya let him go with a jerk making him stumble on his feet.
" Look Mr Mehta mujhe maaf kar dijiye par ab ham kar bhi kya sakte hai yeh Shadi nahi ho sakti please baat ko samajhiye" he said joining his hands in front of him. Clinching his jaw Avinash walks out of the room, everyone leaves following behind him after glancing at them with Anger one last time. Avinash stand beside the pillar.
His gaze falls on his daughter still sitting in the mandap her head lowering anger , regret, sadness and urge to kill that Bastered on making his precious daughter cry. His own tears threaten to fall from his eyes.
When I felt someone's eyes on me I lifted my head to the direction of the pillar there my father was standing eyes threatening for tears to fall when our eyes met he mouthed in low voice "I'm sorry princess" I gave him small painful smile still eyes lock with my father when all who had been in the home office walk out behind from him. And I saw Aryan parents making their way out of the house their eyes lower in shame and regret. I watched them walk out until they vanished from my sight. I was still in daze lost and heart heavy as if someone had put the stone on my chest. When...."Kya ab Shadi nahi hogi ham kya khali hote hai ,Kya drama Hai tab se baitha ke Rakha hai " one man said in an irritated voice adding more fuel to Surya's anger.
He dashes towards his direction and punches him on his face his corner of lips bleed grabbing him by his collar making everyone gasp in shock
"Yaha Meri Behan Ki life barbad ho gayi hai aur tujhe Apne time ki padi Hai" he said towering over him making him small fear illuminating in the man's eyes he said to cover up."H..ha toh aur Kya hamara time kimti hai aise faltu ka natak hi Karna tha toh shadi Main hi kyu bulaya. Again he was ready to Puch them but a lady said "ab kon karega isse shadi sare zamane main thu thu hogi Ki Mehta's ki Beti ko dulha bech mandap Mai chor ke bhag gaya" her voice came as if mocking.
"Aap ko is baat Ki Chinta Karne Ki koi jarurat nhi Hai aunty Surya Mehta Abhi Jinda Hai apni behen ke upar ungli uthane walo Ki ungliya tod ne ke liye." He said protectively shutting her up.
My eyes beam with new fresh tears.
But the voices of all of them mocking me filled in my head making it spin and my head throbbing.
" Bolne se kuch nahi hota beta, Jo daag Daman par lag Jaye use koi mita nahi sakta, ab koi aur toh usse Shadi Karne se raha tum kitni ungliya todoge kitno ke muh band karwaoge " one said from behind taunting.
Surya's nostrils flaring in anger he said " agar jaroorat Padi toh Puri Duniya ko jala dunga apni behen ke liye yeh Surya Avinash Mehta ka wada hai" he said his eyes were burning with Anger and glossy with tears.
But he words were like falling on deaf ears, soon the hall filled with taunts and turned it into chaos.
"Kon karega ab isse Shadi", "chori huyi dulhan kehelayegi yeh ab", sari zindagi kharab ho gayi uski"their words piercing through my heart head heavy and throbbing with pain I just wanted to get vanished in thin air I can't take this anymore I stand up form my place and turn to leave.
When .....
"I will marry her"
My steps froze hearing the familiar high pitched voice falls on my ears I turn to confirm.
There he stands with a bouquet in one hand in the middle turning all eyes towards him to turn the chaos silent becoming the centre of attention.
My voice came almost in a low whisper Brearley auditable eyes filled with tears.
Ahaan......
" I will marry her"
