Chapter 7

Thank you so much for all the love guys. 🤗 Here is the part 7.

                                  PART-7 

She felt humilated, lost.what was happening?she missed his warmth.why did he leave so suddenly?

Tears welled up in her eyes.she is doing so much efforts for him, to get a part of his love, and he does not care at all.

She slowly came out of the washroom to find him sitting on her bed.she looked a bit surprised, she had expected him to leave.but seeing him there unleashed all her emotions.enough of this drama, plan and hints.she is raavi ,the one who wears her  heart on her sleeves, she is not afraid to love, laugh and live.she does not shy away from expressing emotions.one bad experience and she lost herself? She looked at herself in the mirror and tears came out again.

Shiva realised her presence and looked up.their eyes met, she came and sunk on the ground in front of him.shiva looked at her apprehensive of what she was about to say .

" Kya itni buri Lagti hoo Mai tujhe"? She whispered looking up into his eyes.

Shiva looked at her surprised, and came down to sit with her on the floor.

"Jaanti Hu, tune sapne Mai bhi nahi socha Hoga ki Teri shaadi mere Saath hogi.tu to apne Bhai ke baarat Mai Gaya tha, aur Zindagi Bhar ki zimmedari ke Saath Lauta" raavi said looking at her.

" Raavi.." shiva whispered

" Aaj mujhe Bolne de shiva.bahut Himmat jutayi hai Maine." She said stopping him.

Shiva Held her hand and she continued.

" Sabko Mera dard dikha, Meri takleef dikhi..par tere Chupe huye asu kisiko nahi dikhe.kitna mushkil Hoga tere liye ek aise ladki se shaadi karna jisse Tu Bachpan se nafrat karta hai, Jo  Bachpan se tere Apne bade Bhai se pyar karti thi." raavi spoke trembling.

Shivas grip on her hands tightened as she said that.she is so worried for him ? She is pained for him?

" Maine apna dard tujhse ladkar Kam kiya. Tujhe jangli, gawar...pata nahi kya kya bolti rahi. Dev ko Kuch nahi keh payi Mai, par na jaane kyu aisa Lagta tha ki tujhpe gussa nikalne Ka haq hai mera." She said.

Shiva remembered the initial days of their marriage, when she would cry and did not talk to anyone properly, but him. She would insult him and call him names, he didn't react.he let her do that to ease her pain, even though he was hurt.

"Maanti hoo mujhse Galti hui. Teri value samajhne Mai bahut Der Lagi mujhe.par Maine hamare rishte ko dil se apna liya hai shiva.mujhe iss Tarah khud se alag Karke itni badi sazaa mat de." She folded her hands and started sobbing.she couldn't hold it in anymore.

Shiva shook his head and immediately held her hands.he couldn't see her broken like that.here he was worried for her and she was for him.they mutually understood each others pain.he took her into his arms and stroked her head to comfort her.she was shivering, he wasn't sure if it was due to the cold or the crying.the towel had dropped on the floor long ago.

" Sorry... sorry... sorry " shiva said as he comforted her.

" Mai tujhse bahut pyar karti hoo shiva.itna pyar jitna Maine Kabhi kisise nahi kiya.kya Tu mujhe Zara bhi pasand nahi karta? Kya thode se pyar ke kaabil nahi Hoo Mai?" He froze as he heard her words.he was happy that she loved her, he had dreamt this moment so many times, but she sounded so defeated when she said that. He pulled her away and cupped her face.

"Thoda sa pyar? duniya Bhar Ka pyar bhi tere Kadmo pe lake rakh loo na, to Woh bhi Kam pade tere liye.samjhi? " Shiva said

" Mujhe laga Tu iss rishte se Khush nahi hai , Tu ek behtar Zindagi deserve karti hai. Iss liye Maine yeh kadam uthaya Kyuki mujhe pata tha Tu Kabhi bhi Jodein huye Rishton ko nahi todegi...tujhe andaza nahi hai raavi ki mujhe yeh karte huye kitni takleef huyi.pagalon ki Tarah pyar Karne laga tha tujhse, par darta tha.bahut sawal the man Mai.yeh nahi samajh paya ki tere Mann Mai kya chal Raha hai" Shiva said.

Raavi looked at him and signed.he loved her ?yes, he just said he did.all this while he was worried for her .she was happy.haapy was a small emotion, she was on cloud 9.but she was also angry at him for suffering so much in silence.couldnt he ask her once what she wanted? 

She started hitting his chest with her tiny fists.

" Gadhera..Tu na Dhara Di ke Saath yeh TV serial dekhna band Kar.bada Aya self sacrificial Mahan bahu banne ....ek Baar mujhse Puch nahi Sakta tha ki mujhe kya chahiye? "Raavi sighed as she stopped hitting him 

He held his ears and whispered a sorry .

Raavi held his hands and threw herself at his arms again.

" Mujhe duniya Bhar Ka pyar nahi chahiye shiva.mujhe bas mera shiva chahiye.tu jaisa hai waisa.kuch bhi nahi Badalna chahti Mai tujhme.na tere kapde, na tera rehen sehen ,Kuch bhi nahi."raavi said 

Shiva was happy to hear that .she loved him for who he is.a smile crept in his lips.

"Toh Kal se Mai dobara hafte Mai ek Baar nahana shuru Kar du?" Shiva chuckled

Raavi smacked his hand.he had started to shower after he came from the store early in their marriage so that she didn't get uncomfortable with the smell.he made sure that he always dusted his shirt before he came to their room taking into account her dust allergy.these small getsure made her fall for him even more.he always cared for her right from day one .

Raavi sneezed.in all this he forgot that she was still cold.he made her stand up , went to her cupboard and picked out a green suit.

"Jake change Karke...nahi to thand lag jayegi" shiva said handing her the clothes.

She nodded and was about to go in when he held her hand and pulled her closer.

" Waise akele manage Kar leti ya help chahiye?" Shiva asked winking at her 

Her eyes widenend as she looked at him.

"Kitna besharm Hogaya hai Tu shiva.chod mujhe"raavi said freeing her hand from his grip

" 6 mahine bahut sharafat se reh liya...ab aur nahi" shiva said

Raavi ran inside blushing.she came out wearing the green suit. She looked beautiful.shiva couldn't stop staring at her.

"Ghoor kya Raha hai? Khayega kya?" Raavi asked

"Irada to Kuch aisa hi hai." Shiva replied sighing

Cough cough.krish coughed loudly trying to gain their attention.everyone was standing at the door.dhara, rishita,Gombi, maami.whole family was there.

" Waise hum andar aa jaye? Plan kaam Kiya ki nahi raavi?" Dhara asked winking at raavi.

The colour of raavis cheek were screaming yes, but she nodded.

What plan? Shiva was confused.

" Kaisa plan bhabi?" Shiva asked

"tujhe jaise gadhede ko line pe laane Ka plan".dhara said while twisting his ear 

"Tujhe kya laga ,Mai itni asani se raavi ko jaane deti " dhara said smiling.

"Matlab raavi ki Shaadi nahi ho rahi ?"shiva was relieved as he thought that .now he didn't have to deal with wedding cancellation, maama.,maami.he had thought so much when raavi was in the washroom on how to convince their families again.

"Shaadi to ho rahi hai, bas dulha change hua hai." Gombi said while putting his hand on his brother's head.

Shiva looked at raavi .she was still blushing.tears filled shivas eyes.

They were to Marry again?

"Par gombi...Woh divorce papers.."shiva said.

" Jala diye maine..aur agar dobara divorce Ka naam liya na to tujhe bhi jala dungi "raavi said pointing a finger glaring at him angrily

Shiva smiled looking at his furious chipkali.everyone supperesed a giggle.

" Kya bhabi .Aap bhi? Mujhe laga Aap to hamesha mere team Mai ho." Shiva said looking at dhara.

" Mai to tere team Mai na hote huye bhi tere team Mai hi thi.tu aur raavi ek dusre se alag thodi ho." Dhara said with tear in her eyes.

Shiva hugged her.raavi joined in.

" Acha Acha..bahut hua yeh Rona dhona.sab Chalo Shaadi ki taiyari bhi Karni hai." Gombi said 

"Gombi..yeh Shaadi aaj nahi ho Sakti?" shiva asked.

" Jab itna intezaar kya hai, to ek Raat aur hi Sahi...Woh kya hai na Kisi mahapurush ne Kaha hai intezaar Ka phal meetha hota hai " rishta said while giggling and giving a hi fi to Krish 

" Are ab Tu jaa...Kal baarat leke ana aur is  Baar Mai tera ekdum Dil se swagat karungi aur Apni beti ko tere Saath Vida karungi " maami said folding her hands in front of shiva.

Shiva held her hands and shook his head.no matter how much he hates maami, but she deserves all the credit for selflessly loving his wife.

They all left , shiva looked behind to see raavi one last time and went.

This night was not ending.sleep was faraway from his eyes.he was excited, happy and scared.yes, a small part of him feared that this was all a dream and it would all end.

His phone rang .he smiled and picked it up.

" Kya hua chipkali? Kyu Meri need kharab Kar rahi hai? Meri Yaad Mai itni tadap rahi hai ki ek Raat Ka bhi intezaar nahi hota tujhse " shiva said 

" Achaa...ek ring pe phone utha Diya tune.mujhe acche se pata hai ki need tujhe bhi nahi aa rahi.zyada natak mat Kar."raavi whined 

" Jab insaan Ka haqeeqat itna khubsurat ho to neend aur khwab se darr Lagta hai " shiva said sincerely

Raavi was touched.

" Accha ..itni khubsurat Hu Mai?"raavi asked

"Aemaamikibehenkibeti...Mai Teri nahi... Somnath ke sabse khubsurat ladki ki baat kar Raha hoo...jo Kal hamesha ke liye Meri hone ja rahi hai " shiva said 

Raavi smiled. 

"Kal mujhse zyada intezaar mat Karwana shiva" she said 

" Hmm...Mera bas chale to abhi jaake tujhe le aoo."

He sighed

" Ab tera aaj Ka sharmane Ka quota pura ho Gaya ho to so ja.kal tujhe energy ki bahut zaroorat padegi, phir Raat ko yeh bahana mat banana ki thak gayi hai " shiva added naughtily

Her heart skipped a beat hearing him.

" Mai rakhti hoo...gud nitee" she fumbled and kept the phone trying to calm her heartbeats.

Gadhedi..he muttered shaking his head as he went back to trying to sleep.
