Siddharth's POV
I was sitting with my parents on the breakfast table.
I was trying to gain courage of telling them about Sanjana and me.
It had been a week since everything was sorted between me and her. I was trying to find a way to tell my parents but everytime something or the other would happen and I could not tell them.
I looked at them again. Mumma was putting another parantha in papa's plate and he was savouring them with delight.
I cleared my throat to gain their attention but nothing happened.
"Umm-wo-kuch baat krni thi aap dono se."
(I wanted to talk to you people.)
I started and they looked at me.
"Haan bol na."
(Yes say.)
Mumma said and put another parantha in my plate.
"Wo actually- mujhe-wo-umm-i mean-"
"Kaun hai wo ladki?"
(Who is the girl?)
Papa asked dramatically and I looked at him shocked.
"Aapko kaise pata?"
(How do you know?)
"Tumhari umar se hum bhi guzar chuke hai. Itna toh jaante hai ki jab bachha apne maa baap se kuch baat krna chahta ho toh uska matlab do hi cheeze ho skti hai. Ya toh usse career related koi baat krni hai ya love related. Aur jitna tu darr rha hai usse toh ek hi cheez samajh mai aati hai. Pyaar ka mamla babu bhaiya pyaar ka mamla."
(We passed your age. We know that if child wants to talk to parents it could mean two things. Wither it is career related or love related. And the way you are fumbling only one thing could be understood. Its about love.)
I smile sheepishly and he chuckles.
"Ab bata kaun hai."
(Now tell who is she.)
"Sanjana naam hai. Sanjana Sharma. Mere saath college mai padhti thi."
(She studied with me in college.)
"College romance."
"Photo hai uski?"
(Do you have any photo?)
Mummy asked and I nodded. I showed her a photo on my phone.
"Ye bhi tujhse pyaar krti hai?"
(She also loves you?)
Mummy asked doubtfully and I nodded.
"Nhi matlab itni sundar ladki ko tu kaise pasand aa gaya?"
(I mean how come such a beautiful girl came to love you?)
"Yaar aap dono mujhe chhedna band karo."
(Stop teasing me.)
"Achha bata kya krna hai?"
(Tell me what to do?)
Papa asked.
"Uske parents se baat. Hamari shaadi ki."
(Talk to her parents. About our marriage.)
They nodded and I gave them her parents number.
Papa said that they would talk to them.
"Kab?"
(When?)
"Jaldi kya hai bhai. Kr lenge baat."
(We will. What is the hurry.)
"Nhi mai toh bas."
(No I was just.)
I ask rubbing my neck nervously and they laughed.
My parents love to tease me.
Sanjana's POV
We were sitting in the living room after having dinner when papa suddenly asked me.
"Sanjana? Kisi Siddharth Gupta ko jaanti ho tum?"
(Do you know any Siddharth Gupta?)
I looked at him wide eyed. I looked at Sanya and she was reciprocating my reaction. A few seconds later she relaxed and nodded.
I turned to papa and mumbled slowly.
"Jee papa."
(Yes papa.)
"Hmm. Kya rishta hai tumhara?"
(What is your relationship?)
I looked at Sanya and she blinked her eyes in response. I gulped and mumbled.
"Hum pyaar krte hai papa."
(We love each other papa.)
He hummed again and then everything went silent.
Kuch kaho papa! Meri jaan nikal jaayegi.
"Phone aaya tha mere paas unke parents ka."
(His parents called.)
He said after a long pause.
"Shaadi ki baat kr rhe the tum dono ki."
(He was talking about marriage.)
I kept my head lowered.
"Maine keh dia ki tumse puchh kr bataunga. Kya jawaab du unhe?"
(I told them I will ask you. What should I say?)
"Arre puchhna kya hai. Haan bolo seedha."
(What is there to ask. Say yes.)
Sanya squealed excitedly. Uff ye ladki!
Papa must have looked at her because she stuttered.
"Mai-mai toh bas aise hi."
(I-i was just.)
Mummy sat beside me and asked me softly.
"Shaadi krni hai na unse?"
(You want to marry him?)
I nodded and felt papa caress my head after some time.
I looked at him. He had tears in his eyes.
"Itni badi ho gyi meri bacchi. Shaadi ki baat ho rhi hai."
(You grew up so fast. Talking about your marriage.)
He choked slightly and I hugged him tight.
"Mai bhi."
(Me too.)
Sanya too jumped in and I chuckled slightly.
Papa kissed our heads and said that they would finalise everything tomorrow.
We went to our rooms and I slumped on the bed.
Sanya slumped beside me and said excitedly.
"Aapki shaadi ho rhi hai. Ab Professor jiju mujhe daant nhi paayenge."
(You are getting married. Now Professor Jiju won't be able to scold me.)
She giggled and I face palmed.
"Bas isliye itni khush hai na tu?"
(That's why you are happy?)
"Nhi nhi. Aapke liye bhi khush hu."
(No no. I am happy for you too.)
She said immediately and then smiled widely.
I shook my head and we continued our banter till midnight and then finally slept.
Siddharth's POV
After the call from her parents confirming the marriage I was elated.
They invited us to their home to finalise the wedding dates and the Roka ceremony too.
I got ready in a red kurta and we left for their home.
We were welcomed in by my over excited saali sahiba. I greeted her parents.
I was asked to sit on the couch while our parents started preparing for the ceremony as instructed by the priest.
He asked to call the bride and Sanya ran inside to get her.
She came out wearing a red saree.
This is the first time I am seeing her in a saree and damn! She looks so beautiful.
I just kept looking at her until she came and sat beside me.
Our roka ceremony was done and then the priest started looking for the dates.
I wanted to spend some time with my beautiful fiancee but could not say it like that.
I took out my phone and messaged Sanya to do something so that I can spend some time with her sister.
"5 marks aur badane padenge."
This girl and her demands.
I quickly typed an ok and she got up and spoke.
"Yaar papa hum kya karenge yaha baith kr. Ye aap bade logo ka kaam hai. Hum tab tak jiju ko apne ghar dikhate hai na."
(What will we do sitting here. This is your old people's job. We will show jiju our house till then.)
Uncle nodded and I sighed and got up.
Sanya took us to the terrace and spoke.
"Chalo bhai my job is done. Promise mat bhulna aap."
(Don't forget your promise.)
She said and ran away.
As soon as she went I caught Sanjana's hand and pulled her to me.
She looked at me and kept her hands on my chest.
"Ye tumhara idea tha?"
(This was your idea?)
I nodded and nuzzled my nose into her cheeks.
"Apni new fiancee ke saath thoda alone time spend krna tha."
(Wanted to spend some alone time with my new fiancee.)
I kissed her cheek and round my arms around her waist.
She put her arms around my neck and nuzzled our noses.
"Kya krne ka iraada tha alone time mai?"
(What were your intentions?)
She asked naughtily biting my nose slightly.
"Iraade bhut pure hai mere."
(I have very pure intentions.)
"Achha!"
(Really!)
"Haan."
(Yes.)
We laughed and joined our foreheads.
"I love you so much."
"I love you too."
I started leaning in but she moved back. I frowned and she bit her lip.
"Want to go a little old school? Shaadi se pehle no milna and no contact?"
(No meeting and contact before marriage?)
"Nhi. Aisa kuch nhi krna mujhe."
(No. I don't want any such thing.)
I said and took her lips in a slow kiss.
She bit my lip a little too harshly that it drew a little blood. I hissed and she licked it to soothe it down.
"Junglee billi."
I teased her and kissed her again.
Can't believe we are making out on a terrace and that too when our parents are just downstairs and anyone could see us from here.
But issi mai toh fun hai. RIght?
