This was Sunday morning, I went down to have breakfast .... I saw her sitting next to shiza, she was looking breathtakingly beautiful, If i never experienced it by myself,I would never believe that she can be so difficult to handle ... Mom dad arsam,everyone was present ....
I decided to behave nicely ...

Arsam's POV
I was waiting for the blast but ye kya? Are they actually smiling at each other ... ? Chal kya raha hai bhai in dono me .... Aesa kya hai Jo mujhe nahi Pata chala abtak ...
I decided to tease them a little ....
"Pata hai mom ... College me kisi Mr akhdu ne aru ke upar noodles fek diye the .. " I was telling mom ...everyone looked at me
(Suddenly both of them started coughing....)
"Arey beta paani piyo dono... Aram se khao na... Kya jaldi hai " mom handed water to haadi Bhai who was now glaring at me ...
Shiza gave water to aru..I saw Aru turning red ... I chuckled..
"Koi pareshani ho college me toh beta ... Mujhe batao ... Ghabrana nahi ...Mai bhi tumhre baba jaisa hi hu, ye arsam toh apne me hi rehta hai, tum aesa karo haadi ko le jao. " dad said to her
"Haadi beta jakr dekho kon hai , jisne hamari beti ko pareshan kia hua hai bhai, koi ragging wagera toh nahi kar raha" dad said turning to haadi bhai ...
Wah ab ye kya bataenge bechare ...khud hi toh noodles muh pe maar ke aae the
"Umm ....dad lekin pata toh karein us bande ne esa inke sath kiya kyu? " haadi bhai said staring at aru ...
"uncle kuch log hote hi sirfire hai , unhe kisi reason ki zarurat nahi hoti ............. "She made a face at bhai "but uncle don't woryy i can handle him " she then added looking back at dad ....
she now stared at haadi bhai and he was looking back at her ......
"Thik hai phir.... Accha mai or tmhri mom aj dehradun jarhe hai, tumhri phupi ka accident hua tha kuch din pehle unhe dekhne jana h ... Kal subah tak aa jaenge..." dad told us ..

Dono bacchiyaan akeli hai ..dhyaan rakhna inka ... "
Mom said lookin at bhai and me..
Mom dad ke Jane ke baad ye dono pakka mujhe maar daalenge ... Meri masti mere pe hi bhari na padh jae kahin ...Bhag le beta .. Agar jaan pyari hai ...
"But mom meri aj basketball ki practice hai ,,,,, but I promise mai jaldi aa jaunga ... Tab tak bhai rhnge ghar pe na .... " I told mom ..

"Ek do ghante me ... Arsam or haadi .. Tum dono Zara mere sath chalo .. Kuch baat karni hai ... " mom said to us ...

Haadi's POV
We went to the hall with her ... Mom took out some envelopes from the drawer and handed me ...
"Haadi isme kuch pictures hai or baaki saari details b ... Tum ek baar dekh lo ... Or btao agar koi pasand aae .." Mom cheerfully said ..
"But mom ,,, ek minute .... Kya hai ye ?or Kiski pictures hai ye? " I was confused .. I saw arsam chuckling standing near the door ...
"Ladkiyon ki.... Or bhala kiski ? Maine badi hi pyaari pyaari ladkiyaa shortlist ki h... Ab bs tum dekh k final kar lo ..mujhse toh wait nahi ho raha ab tumhri shadi ka ... " mom explained
"Ek second......Or apse kisne kaha mai shadi ke liye ready hu .. ? "
"Haan toh ...abhi nahi karni...kabhi toh karni hai.... Tum inme se pasand toh Karo kisiko"
"Mom ,,,Meri baat smjhne ki koshish kare ..mujhe nahi karni shadi ... Or aese toh bilkul bhi nahi ... Ye pictures shortlist ya final karne se kuch nahi hota, ..." I tried to convince her
" haan bhai love marriage karenge... Unhe arrange marriage ka concept nahi pasand... " arsam jumped in between the conversation ... I felt like punching him hard... But I could only give a death glare
"Love marriage? ... Haadi beta....tumhe koi or pasand hai kya? Koi gori toh nahi pasand kar li tune London mein.??? Dekho agar koi Muslim ladki hai toh thik hai warna ...." mom said in disbelief...
"Nahi mom ... Aesa kuch bhi nahi hai ... "
"Toh kesa hai btao ... Agar aesi baat na hoti toh tum aese ekdum se shadi ke liye na mana karte.."
"Mom... Ap konsi baat kahaan le jarhi hai .." I was just trying my best
And suddenly out of nowhere.... "Arisha beta... Idhar aana zara ..." mom called her...
Bas isi ki kami thi....
"G aunty ... " she said coming near the door of the hall
"Beta tum Zara dekh ke btao isme se kon si ladki sabse acchi hai... Hum haadi ke liye ladki select kar rahe hai.. " mom took envelopes from me and gave it to her ...
She looked at the envelopes then , looked at me... Then arsam...
"But aunty , mai kaise bata sakti hu ... Ye toh apko khud haadi bata sakte hai ... " she said keeping envelopes on the table ... I was surprised by her words..
"Arey wahi toh nahi bata raha na ... Koi gori pasand kar li hai isne London me ... Mai bata rahi hu ... Mai mar jaungi lekin koi English bahu nahi laungi is ghar me.. Or kahi media tak ye baat pohonch gai toh" mom was stretching it too far ... I saw arisha's eyes getting big when mom talked about that girl ..
"Tum dekh ke batao na beta " mom again insisted her
"Haan haan ...Aru btao na.... Shayad tumhari pasand hi bhai ki pasand ho ... " arsam said chuckling..
Ye arsam saare maar khane wale kaam karta hai
This time She took the envelopes and saw the pictures one by one and I was standing there like 'what the hell is going on ..'
"Aunty...sabhi itni acchi hai ... But ye wali dekhein ... Kitni pyari hai na ... " they both busy in checking out the pictures
What ? Like seriously , this girl is selecting the perfect match for me to marry...... I can't take this anymore..
"Bas band karein ye sab ... Maine kaha na .. Nhi karni mujhe shadi ... " I walked out of the hall with closing the door with a bang behind me showing my anger...
••••••
Arisha's POV
Aunty was now literally pleading and I couldn't say no anymore ...
So I took the envelopes and saw the pictures ... All girls were equally pretty to select one ...
"Bas band karein ye sab ... Maine kaha na .. Nhi karni mujhe shadi ... " haadi said and left with a loud bang ... I could see the anger ...
"Mom maine kaha tha... Bhai nahi manenge... " arsam said
"Thik hai... Toh tum log samjhao use...yeh nahi samajh raha mai isko kitni badi problem se bachana chah rahi hu"
"Mai nahi mom, lekin haan arisha try kar sakti hai ...iske samne bhai ki bolti band ho jati hai" arsam said with a chuckle..
What? Wo bandar aese hi mujhse chidha hua hai.... Ab wo din nahi rahe jab mai haadi se keh k kuch b karwa sakti thi.
"Mai? Nahi nahi ... Arsam.. Tumhara bhai h ... Tumhari sunega ... Mere ko mat fasao yr..."
"Beta please... " aunty said taking hand into hers.
"aap janti nahi hai lekin aapka beta mujhe dekh ke achanak se Dracula ban jata hai.....but aap itna keh rahi hai toh mai try zarur karungi"
She smiled and hugged me, then went outside...

Hania's POV
"O god , ye ladki phone q nahi uthati kabhi .... Silent pe hi hoga ... Hamesha silent pe rehta hai iska phone ... " I was calling aru from morning ...
"Shiza ko karti hu , uske hi ghar pe hogi ... " I thought
Ab ye bhi nahi utha rahi... Chal kya raha hai yaar ...landline pe karu kya? But pata nahi kon uthaega... Ummm Try karke dekhti hu ... Is ladki ki wajah se kya kya karna padhta hai mujhe ...
(After few rings .....)
"Hello.. " I heard a manly voice ...
"Hello ... Ummm... Kon? "
I hope ye woh nahi hai Jo mai soch rahi hu
"Its haadi malik ... Aap kon? "
Oh haadi bhai ...
•••••••
Haadi's POV
I was at home as mama said ... I was sitting in the hall working on my turkey project.... Suddenly heard that landline was ringing ...
I took the call ...
"Oh haadi Bhai aap ... Assalam walaikum.... " the girl cheerfully greeted
"Walaikum assalam ... But aap hai kon? " I was confused
"Haadi bhai mai Hania ... Pehchana? "
"Hania? Umm ... Haan? " I was trying to recollect from my memory
"Aap india me hai ? Mujhe to yakeen nahi ho raha Meri apse baat ho Rahi h... Mujhe toh laga aap London me honge..... Chale accha hua,isi bahane apse baat bhi ho gai,or bataen aap kaise hai? " she was speaking very fast,due to excitement I guessed..
Mujhe yaad aya... Hania ..... Khan uncle ki beti ...but achanak itne saalo baad...
"Haan..haan I am fine...... Or kaisi ho tum ? Sab khairiyat? " I asked her trying to figure out the reason y she called after all these years..
I dont know why but we were not in touch with khan's after we shifted from Lucknow .....
"Haan Bhai ... Mai toh bhool hi gai excitement me ... Wo actually mujhe aru se baat karni thi...please aap baat karwa denge.. "
Aru? Ye kon hai ?
"Kon aru?.... " I asked
"Arey!! kya haadi bhai... Aap arisha ko bhool gae, maana itne saalo mein baat nahi Hui ask do no ki... Lekin ab aesi bhi koi bhoolne wali cheez nahi hai wo..or abhi tak mile nahi kya aap usse" she said in a flow making me confuse ...
Oh I now I get this ,this girl ... This silly girl ... She is arisha ...that same girl
"Han ... Haan ...toh tumhe uske mobile pe Karna chaiye.... "
"actually bhai ,Wo phone nahi utha rahi na.. Maine shiza ko bhi call ki lekin uska b koi response nahi ...mera bohot zaruri kaam ruka hua hai, Aap Meri baat karwa dein please... "
This girl is really very irresponsible... Family ki bhi koi parwah nahi hai isko
"Bhai?? ... Hello? ... R u there? ..."
"Umm yeah ... Wait ... I'll call her.."
I called amjad (servant), and told him to call arisha ... After few minutes she entered,she rolled her eyes looking at me...
What's wrong with this girl
She took the phone, and I was looking at her while she was talking... Suddenly she looked back and I quickly looked away...
••••••
Arisha's POV
"Haan yaar phone silent pe tha ... Tum btao kya baat hai ? Itni bhi kya qayamat toot padi Jo tumne landline pe call kar diya?"
"Qayamat ki bacchi ... Laptop ka password change kiya tha tumne???... Ab mujhe kaam hai toh mai tumko hi call karungi na... Upar se madam phone silent pe rakhti hai ... Pata nahi kya masla hai ... Or toh or shiza.... Wo bhi call receive nahi kar rhi ... Wo toh bhala ho haadi bhai ka kam se kam call toh pick ki unhone..warna tum log toh "
O god this girl speaks a lot ...
"Kya haadi bhai haan? ...tumko Pata bhi hai kitna bada pagal insaan hai ye...... " I felt his gaze ...When I looked at him , he quickly changed his sight ...
O god .. Isne sun liya kya ... Mar gai...
"Ab ...ba..ba.... password chaiye na tumhe mai Whatsapp kar rhi hu ... " I added
"Nahi ... Kya... Haadi bhai ke bare me kuch keh rhi thi tum ... Kuch hua hay kya..... Mujhe btao... "
"Haan bola na ... Kar rhi hu message bas abhi password,mai call karti hun tmko abhi ....." I quickly hung up the phone ...
I took my mobile and messaged the password to Hani... I again looked at him but this time he was busy in his work ... I was moving out but then ....
"Suno ... " I said turning to him ..
