Man: Mujhe batana hai ki, ( I had to say that,)
Rits: Mai pregnant hu. ( I am pregnant.)
Jai: Congrats bhai, congrats bhabhi.
All congratulated them.
Sonia/Vibha: Ab shaadi ke baare mein, ek mahina hi bacha hai, aur mere teeno bacho ki shaadi hai. ( Now about wedding, only one month is left and all my three kids are getting married.)
Reem smiled listening this.
Abhi: Shaadi ke pehle ke saare rituals muh dhak kar karne zaruri hai kya? ( Is it necessary to cover our face for all rituals other than marriage?)
Vibha: Ha.
Sid: Yu toh sab hum dono ke beech confuse ho jayege, aur in dono ke beech bhi, ki kaun kaun hai. ( Then all will get confused between both of us and these two also that who is who.)
Vaish: Ha, engagement ke din kitno ne mujhe Avu aur ise Vaishu bola tha. In dono ka bhi same haal tha. ( Yes, during engagement so many called me Avu and her Vaishu. Same with these two.)
Jai: Hum dono ki engagement toh bina muh dhake hi huyi thi. ( Our engagement was done without covering faces.)
Aman: Muh dhakne par zyada nakhre mat karo, hum sabne bhi muh dhak kar hi rituals kare hai. ( Don't show so many tantrums on covering faces, even we had done rituals with face covered.)
Sonia(murmured): Fayda kya hua? ( What was the benefit?)
Vibha: Exact 28 din ke baad shaadi hai tum sabki. Shaadi 7th day par hogi. ( After exactly 28 days its your wedding. Wedding will be on the 7th day.)
Sonia: Pehle din mehendi hogi, dusre din sangeet hoga pehle, phir shaam ko party hogi. ( First day will be mehendi, second day first sangeet then party in evening.)
Aman: Teesre din tilak hai, chauthe din haldi aur paanchve din roka hoga. ( Third day is the tilak, haldi on fourth day and roka on fifth day.)
Vibha: Phir beech mein ek din koyi ceremony nahi hogi, venue aur sab pura ache se tayar karwayege, aur sabko rest milega, uske agle din shaadi hai. ( Then in between one day there won't be any ceremony, we'll get the venue and everything ready, and all will get to rest, next day will be the wedding.)
Within one month all the arrangements were done, all the shopping was done, and right now Vaireeneet were returning from the parlour with Vibha and Sonia.
Vaish: Kal finally mehendi hai. Mai bahut excited hu, par mehendi lagwane ke liye ghanto tak baithna padta hai. Mai itni der same position mein kaise rahungi? Abhi bhi baithega kya mere saath? Ladke bhi mehendi lagwayege kya? Humare dost sab lagwaane waale hai? Mai itni der bina kuch khaaye nahi reh sakti. Oh ha, Abhi toh mujhe khila sakta hai. Par uske haat mein bhi mehendi huyi toh? Mummy aur mom bhi lagwa rahe hai kya? ( Tomorrow is finally mehendi. I am very excited, but we'll have to sit hours together for getting henna applied. How will I sit in the same position for so long? Will Abhi also be sitting with me? Are the boys getting henna applied as well? Will our friends also get it? I can't be for so long without eating. Oh yes, Abhi can feed me. But what if there is henna in his hands also? Are mummy and mom also getting it applied?)
Avu slapped the back of Vaishu's head, which she returned.
Avu: Chup raho, kitna bolte ho? Bhai bechare kaise handle karenge aapko? Arre ha, mai bhi rahungi waha, bhai ki help karne. ( Keep quiet, how much do you speak? How will bhai handle you? Oh yeah, I'll be there no, to help him.)
She chuckled.
Vaish: Kuch bhi ha? ( Anything?)
Reem: Arre di, isme kuch bhi ka kya hai? Sahi toh bol rahi hai Avi. Waise bhi babe akele aisi piece ko nahi sambhal paayega, tab Avi hi help karegi na, ek bhabhi aur saali ki tarah. ( Arre di, what there of anything in this? Avu is right. Babe won't be able to handle such a piece, then Avu will only help him right, as his bhabhi and saali.)
Reeneet high-fied.
Vaish: Bahut bure ho tum log mujhe tumse baat hi nahi karni. ( You both are very bad I don't want to talk to you.)
She made a grumpy face and went to the ladies. Reeneet laughed and went behind her.
Vaish: Mummy, dekho na, yeh dono bol rahi hai ki mera pati mujhe nahi sambhal paayega aur use Avi ki madad chahiye hogi. ( Mummy, see them, they are saying my husband won't be able to handle me and will need Avu's help.)
Vibha: Kyu chida rahe ho meri beti ko? ( Why are you both teasing my daughter?)
Sonia: Aur kyu nahi sambhal paayega meri beti ko? ( And why won't he be able to handle my daughter?)
Avu: Haww, aap dono humari bhi mummy ho. Aur pati bola, devar nahi. ( Haww, you both are our mothers also. And we said husband, not brother-in-law.)
Vibha: Ha toh hum bhi pati ki hi bole, devar ki nahi. Aur kaunsa hum naam le sakte hai tumhare saamne. ( Yeah so we also said husband only, not brother-in-law. And not like we can take their name in front of you all.)
Vaish: Humne galat sun liya hoga, chodo use. ( We must have heard wrong, leave that.)
Reem: Mujhe bhi aisa hi lagta hai. ( Even I think the same.)
Avu(murmurs): Mujhe aisa kyu nahi lagta? Kanhaji, kuch galat mat hone dena ab. ( Why don't I think the same? Kanhaji, don't let anything wrong happen.)
Reem: Kya bol rahi hai? ( What are you saying?)
Avu: Kuch bhi nahi. ( Nothing.)
They all reached home. Avu was still thinking. She knew Sonia didn't say any name, but there had to be a reason why all three heard wrong, maybe it was a sign of something that's going to happen or just a coincidence. As much as she wished it to be the second option, her sixth sense said its the first, and it was always right. Sid noticed her a bit lost and decided to talk to her after dinner, all were staying Nigam mansion only tonight, as the wedding rituals are starting tomorrow. After dinner all went to their rooms, and Sid to Avu's.
Avu: Sid, tu yaha? ( Sid, you here?)
Sid: Kyu, nahi aa sakta? ( Why, I can't?)
Avu: Aisa nahi hai, bas aise hi puch rahi thi. ( Nothing like that, I was just asking.)
He kissed her cheek.
Sid: Waise aaj tu khoyi hui kyu lag rahi thi? ( Why did you look so lost today?)
Avu: Mujhe lag raha hai ki kuch gadbad hai. Aaj.. ( I think something is wrong. Today...)
She repeated the incident and her thoughts. Even Sid knew not to ignore her worry, specially after what happened on Shivangi's. But decided to calm her for now.
Sid: Itni tension mat le, hum sab saath mein milkar jo musibat aayegi uska samnaa karenge. ( Don't take so much tension, we all will face any trouble together.)
Suddenly the door opened and Avu turned around to see Sonia, Sid's back was facing her.
Sonia: Beta, tum yaha kya kar rahe ho? ( What are you doing here?)
Avu: Bas baat kar rahe the hum. ( We were just talking.)
Sonia: Ok. Jaakar so jao ab. ( Ok. Go and sleep now.)
Avu: Ok maa.
Sonia went from there.
Sid: Ab tu soja. ( Now you sleep.)
He kissed her forehead. She hummed and both went to sleep. Next morning Jaineetnavi and Sondeep returned home. All were ready for the mehendi function.
