Chapter 34 (THE UNEXPECTED GUEST)

Start from the beginning
                                    

Aaru smiled brightly and then hugged him. Still in the hug, she spoke, "I am so lucky to have you. I love you so much. And to be honest I am too excited for the upcoming days. Can you imagine, it's our wedding just 4 days from now?"

Anuj (chuckling at her excitement) Yeah am so happy. (In his mind) I hope even Ma, drops her irrelevant stubbornness and joins me my happiness.

Aaru- Dev...

Anuj- Hmmm....

Aaru- Dev, tumhari mom aayengi na, humari shaadi me. I mean I don't want her to feel all left out.

Anuj- (surprised) I thought, you wouldn't want her to be here.

Aaru- C'mon Dev, she is your mother at the end of the day. O know she doesn't like us much and has done innumerable mistakes, but I think everyone deserves a second chance right? So why not her? I mean she did everything only to keep her children's life secured, though I understand that her ways were wrong. But let's just try and forgive her once. What say?

Anuj- (after thinking) I think you are right. I must give her second chance. After all she is my mother. She bore me for 9 months in her womb, I know she means no harm to me and my happiness. And am sure, once i forgive her and she understands you, she would surely mend her ways. Her heart isn't bad. Chalo leave all this, let's go and check our luggage. We need to leave in an hour.

Both of them went to their room, unaware that their talk had brought tears in Suman's eyes. Once they went away from there, she ran to her room and cried badly while falling on her knees near the bed. Shravan who was standing with her and had heard AnRushi's entire conversation, ran behind her and came to the room. Seeing her cry so badly, it hurt him badly and his heart broke Seeing her condition. He came near her and sat beside her. He then made her turn towards him and pulled her in his embrace and let his tears pour our freely too.

Shravan- (slowly patting her head) Shhh.... it's okay Sumo. Calm down. Everything will be okay. Sab thik ho jaayega baby. And even if it is not, hum hain na. We will set everything right. Hmm...

Sumo- (coming out of the hug and looking at him) Yeah, you are right. We can set everything right. Infact, I have a perfect plan. I can set everything right by implying it.

Shravan looked at her Narrowing his eyes, coz he knew that she was not in her right senses now, then she would surely be thinking something very crazy. Yet he decided to listen out to her as he wanted her to vent it all out.

Sumo- Yeah, look I will na go away from here. Mai unko lekar yahan se chali jaaungi. This is the best idea. See I am gone na, you will see Mami all changed. She has a problem with me na, so once I am gone, she will be alright. Yeah. And then bahi and bhabhi will be happy. Even our family won't face any problem. They will be out of danger. Everything will be perfect. This all so perfect. Yeah I will away. I should go away, I don't belong here. I proved yo be a curse.... (by the end, she was murmuring to herself).

Shravan had widened his eyes hearing her out. He knew that she was a mess right now and if he didn't take her out of her grief, of would he dangerous for her health. So he called Sumo out softly. But Sumo wasn't in her senses. She was in a trance and that's whyshe didn't hear him. So he held her shoulder and forcefully jerked her towards him. Sumo was started and looked shocked. He looked straight in her eyes and coming extremely close to her face, he spoke dangerously, " Listen to me very carefully Mrs. SUMAN SHRAVAN MALHOTRA, you are bound to me fir the next all of the lifetimes, till eternity and beyond it too and you are not allowed to leave me alone. What are even thinking? And who... who gave you the right to take the decision of staying or leaving, and that too all alone. You aren't alone in this relationship. I am in this too. This relation is made by both of us. We made it till this point in our relationship, not to break it Sumo. How did you even come to think of it... (chocking)... Am I so unimportant to you that you can't even consider about me before taking a decision. Last time too when you found out about your Mami, you wanted to protect your "Perfect Family" and that's why you decided to leave me all alone. Not for once you thought about asking me or including me I your plan. Dud you ever think, what I must have gone through in those few hours? What if I never was able to decode your hint, because I may have bot notice that as I was in too much pain? My heart was breaking every minute, seeing My Sumk not trusting on her Chashmish. What if I had done the same thing with you Come? What if you were in my shoes? Come on, think if it. How would you have felt? Would you be all okay, thinking that I decided to act as breaking up with you only so that I can catch the culprit? Are my feeling not so important?
Why does everyone think on behalf of me? Am I not capable enough to think about myself? What about what I want, where my happiness lies? Be it, you, Ma or Papa, all three of you decided what was right for me. (Shouting) But where was my consent in all this? Mujhse koi kyin kuch nhi puchta. Why my decision is not important for anyone over here? Why? Why? Why? (Crying by the end)
