FATED: Vani arranged wedding

4. Convincing Bani and Veer

B: Nahi Chachi...Papa? Aap aisa kaise kr skte ho? Meri shaadi? Mai jaanti bhi nahi hoon usse...

She pleaded, feeling helpless.

R: Tu hoti kon hai hume ye kehne wali ki hum kya kr skte hai ya kya nahi? Arey ehsan faramosh! tujhe itne saal muft me pala hai humne! ab jaakr tu bhi humare kissi kaam aa skti hai....humara saara karza maaf ho jayega....Paise baachenge to Meera ki shaadi dhoom dhaam se hogi, Mahek Dahek ke kaam ayenge. Tu kya unse itna jalti hai ki unka bhala hote nahi dekh skti?

Bani had tears in her eyes. she looked at her papa, he looked away.

M: (in mind) I am sorry Bani. But ab bohot hua; I need to get you away from this Ritu wrna tumhari bacchi hui life bhi ye kharab kr degi....

Mahesh pats her head and leaves. Mahek-Dahek snickered in a corner. 

Mahek: suna hai Veeranshu ka rishta aya hai iske liye?

Dahek: vo Singhania na. Vo isse kyu pasand karega?

Mahek: mujhe kya pata? pr suna hai he has a new girl every night and bohot bigda hua hai...

R: haan to isse koi shareefzada milega kya (they laugh)

R: Dekh Bani! haan to tujhe krna hi padega...smjhi na...wrna tere chacha ka karza kaise chookega...papa khehti hai na unhe?...to farz nibha!

Bani wipped her tears and nodded sadly.

.............................

Balwant got off the phone after speaking to Mahesh. 

C: Kya hua? Bade khush lg rahe ho?

B: khush to hona hi hai...Veer ka rishta jo pakka ho gaya!

Jai choaked on his food while Ponky and Daksh looked at each other with worry.

C: Kya? kisse?

B: Mere employee ki beti hai, she is very sweet.

C: Aise kissi se bhi kaise kr de rahe ho?

B: Chanda...

Suddenly, Veer came their in his usual swag. He took a plate and started to go away.

Balwant: Veer?

Veer stopped. Balwant's voice had a different tone, something he had not heard in ages.

V: Ballu?

Balwant sighed.

V: Kya hua hai?

B: Tu nahi sudherega. Coming straight to the point, I have decided to marry you off.

V: Kya? wahi subah wala mazak...

P: Badepapa mazak nahi kr rahe bhai..

D: Haan...unhone ladki bhi dekh li...

V: Sadak se utha kr laye ho kya? itni jldi kon mil gayi aapko...

C: Mai bhi keh rahi hoon ki ek baar ruko, itni jldi kya hai...next week chandini aa rahi hai...usse mil lo...

V: I have to interest in your kachra family. And Dad, choose krna hi tha to meri girlfriends me se kr lo...(smirks)

B: Nahi! I am fed up of you. Ab tu shaadi karega aur vo bhi meri marzi se...bohot chooth de di tujhe...ussi ka result hai ki tu bigar gaya hai...Aur jo ladkiya tu ghoomata hai na...unse lakh acchi h...Shaadi toh teri issi se hogi...tere circle ki kissi ladki se nahi hone dunga mai...

V: nahi karunga!

B: karega...nahi to?

V: Nahi to kya?

B: Mai AV industries beech dunga, vo bhi Parikhs ko.

Veer' eyes lightened up in anger. They became golden and he came close to Balwant's face.

V: You wouldn't dare!

B: Try me!

Veer threw away the plate and went away angry.

.....................................

Veer was sleeping peacefully when his sleep got disturbed by his phone. He picked it up.

V: Kon hai?

Shukla: Sir mai, apke papa ka PA

V: Haan to mujhe kyu phone kiya hai...

Shukla tells him something and Veer rose up quickly.

V: Kya??...ugh! you are too much dad.

.....................................

Veer reached the office and banged into the board room.

B: So deal done?

V: Not done ballu!

Shakura Parikh and his dad smirked.

P: Sorry beta, deal done ho chuki hai..

V: Did I talk to you senior Parikh? Shut up! Dad, You cannot do this.

Shakura: Oye chup reh!

V: Tere mu kon lg raha hai...tu chup kr

B: Veeranshu? please leave! I am in the middle of the deal...

V: I will give you a better deal...I will marry this girl you want me to and you will make me the owner of this company.

Parikh: what nonsense?

Balwant: done!

Shakura: ye kya mazak hai...apne family matters solve krne ke liye hume pawn bana rahe ho tum...time waste kr rahe ho...iska badla lunga mai ...dekh lena..

They cursed them and left angrily. 

Balwant: You will marry her.

V: yes!

Balwant: then I will give you the company on the day of your wedding reception.

V: excuse me!

B: I dont trust you...tu baad me palat jayega..

V: Fine!

He left but stopped at he door.

V: By the way, just so you know, you don't deserve to own my mom's company. It should have been rightfully mine long ago..

Veer banged the door as left. It almost came off its hinges. He was definitely fumming.

Balwant sighed as he moved his old fingers over the sign: AV industries, wondering if life would have been different had she been alive.
