Chapter 34 - A Daughter's tears

Once reaching there, they all took some rest till they prepare for her vidaai. The whole house turned gloomy thinking about her going away from them.

Teju walked towards her room, she knew now it won't be hers, it will be theirs whenever they visit her home. She touched her cupboard, everything in her room was designed by her, each and every corner have beautiful memories. She could see herself and pra fighting for something in the bed, jumping around.

She remembered how she cried when she was upset and her mother came in to console, she laid her head on her mother lap and cried her heart out. 

Her eyes glistened with all the memories, she remembered how every night her father would sneak in to see if she is asleep or not and not to leave without kissing her forehead.

She took their family picture which was taken on her graduation day, she looked at the proud parents who were grinning bcoz their daughter achieved something in her life. 

She looked around to see many pictures of hers and pra, the one which will always be her favorite, the first time she hold him, in that white cloth wrapped around him when they  brought him first time to their home. She kissed the picture taking them in her hands as tears rolled down.

Someone knocked the door and she turned to see butlers from kundrra house, they came to take her stuffs.  She showed them the luggage and when they took them out, the room seems to be turned empty for her. She looked around and sat on her bed. 

( It was easy for everyone to say that it's every girl fate to move out of her house after marriage and start a family of her own, but many won't understand the pain of leaving your home where u have been raised and cherished, the place which have been your everything, the place you called yours and have always had a way to return back from wherever you go and suddenly one day, you have leave that place and start a new life. 

Some were lucky to get a understanding in laws like her but not many, few girls take their own time and pace to understand and make her place in the new house,  she will take years in making it her comfort, but at the end of the day, that will also not be hers. 

Somewhere in some point of her life, she would hear this at the end of day
" ye tera ghar nahi hai ki tu apni marzi se rahogi , yahan ye sab nahi chalega, tujhe hamari baat manke rehna padega", this is a reality of our lives sadly. )

Soon she was called down, she walked downstairs and saw everything was ready, Karan was standing with aai and baba, looks like he was trying to console them but they are her parents, nothing can control their emotions for now.. 

Her mami asked her to move forward, she looked at her parents and tears started flowing down, he looked at her not knowing how to console her, she took the puffed rice in her hand and walked front throwing them back, her mother stood behind and caught them in her pallu,  she kept walking till they reach their car.  She turned to her side and saw her baba looking at her with tears. 

Baba wiped her tears and  hugged her " meri princes hamesha kush rahegi , she is my strong baby and she will not cry like this.. I love you princess " he kissed her forehead.

Then,
" I love you princess "  a father kissed his new born daughter forehead holding her in his arms
Now,
" I love you princess " , a father kissed his grown up beautiful daughter forehead as a bride holding her in his arms.

Nothing changed between them except the years and time, the love always remained the same.

Teju wiped his tears " my baba is also strong and he would never cry, he raised his kids as strong now, voh kudh royengi toh acha nahi lagega na"

He nodded and gave her smile,she turned back to see her mother standing with tears.

Teju " Aapko badi jaldi thi na Mere Shaadi ki, ab kyu roraheho " she asked chuckling a little with tears and aai shook her head.

Aai " jab kudh ek ladki ka maa hogi, tab samaj ayega... "

She held her hands " Tejuuuu, agar kabhi tujhe laga ki, aai aise kyu kar rahehai,  bure kyu banjati hai, hurt karti hai mujhe, I m so sorry.. Maaf kardene bacha mujhe.. Ye ghar terebina kaali rahega, humari kushiyan tujhse judi hai, tere kushi hamari, par kabhi bhi apna dhuk chupana mat, aai yahi hu, tereliye hamesha rahunga...Theek hai "

Teju hugged her tightly " I love you aaiii ,you were the best and you would never hurt us and you never did"

Aai smiled and hugged her more. Teju pulled back after sometime and looked around. 

Teja " baba,  pra kahan hai "

They looked around and she started calling him, he was standing behind the house, he was crying. He don't want to show his tears to her bcoz she will feel bad, he tried to be okay with the fact that she is leaving their house and it won't be the same way from now, no matter how hard they try.

He wiped his tears when he heard her shouts and try to put up a smile , he walked to her and hugged her, she knew he is hiding his emotions and she hugged him tightly.

Teja "Praaa, you know right, teju di always loves you "

Pra nodded with his tears flowing on her neck as she snuggled and he choked, " I know.. I love u too di "

Teja " I will miss you "

Pra " I will miss you too but this is new start for you, smile di.. We don't want you to go with tears, haina aai baba "

Both nodded and she smiled, they looked at Karan, he was in tears looking at them, he know this pain, he have been away from his siblings and he knen how it felt to be away from your loved ones.  He hugged them once again before sitting on the car, she sat beside him and pra pushed the car as per rituals and the car zoomed off.  Anvi was sitting in the passenger seat with om in driver seat. 

Anvi " Please stop crying tejuu, you will get sick. Baby, you can see them frequently, no one is going to say anything..1 hour ki toh baat hai bacha, roh mat aise, see bhai is tensed and sad bcoz of you.. Unko dhek"

Teju looked at her sunny who was looking at her with concern face, his face was filled with worries and she know if she goes on and fall sick, he would be the one who will be affected most. She hugged him and felt his warmth consoling her, he wrapped his arms around her, she smiled and he kissed her forehead.

Karan " I promise I will not let u miss them. When you do, I will bring them to You or take you to them. But please don't cry like this. Jab tu rohti hai, mujhe bechani hojati hai, mujhe samaj nahi araha ki mei kya karun , please don't cry "

She nodded with a smile and he forwarded her a gift pack. She got excited and open the packet and was happy to see her favourite chocolates. She kissed his cheeks and he grinned.  Omvi looked at them with a smile as they r fine.

Little things make her happy and he knew what to do for her and when to do for her.
