Part-12

Next morning, there is a loud knock on the door, Ram is startled, he tries to wake Priya up, but she was in a deep sleep. He realizes the sate of their clothing, smiles to himself and covers Priya with the duvet. He rushed to the bathroom, takes a quick shower and picks up the clothes from the floor. Before heading out of the room, he wakes Priya.

Ram: Priya baby, utho.

Priya: Ram sone do na. Thodi der.

Ram: Baby, main neeche jaa raha hoon, tum utho, darwaza lock karlo, nahi toh at least put on some clothes.

Priya:(who was sleepy to that point) Kya? Haan ok. I'll lock the door and get ready.

Ram: I'll go and check, there was a knock on the door.

Priya: Ok.

-------

Ram goes downstairs and asks Bansi kaka, who knocked on the door, he says Niharika and Mamaji. Ram senses something was fishy.

Ram: Maa, you wanted to speak to me?

Niharika: Yes Ram. Is everything alright between you and Priya?

Ram: They are ok. Why?

Niharika: I saw you carry her upstairs last night. Is she ok?

Ram: Oh that! She went out with Neha for some party, there all of them got drunk and Priya cannot handle drinks as it is. So, Neha had gotten emotional after a few drinks that she wanted to meet her kids and so, I and Vikram picked them up, dropped Vikram and Neha at her mothers and got Priya home. She wasn't able to walk, so I had to help her. Whatever problems, we might have, I have accepted she is my wife and I don't want people pointing fingers at me because of my drunk wife. Is that what you wanted to talk about?

Niharika: Yes. Also, I am not able to get in touch with Sid at all. I have contacted all his friends, none of them know his whereabouts.

Ram: I was worried, something was up with him, you kept telling me that he is vacationing with friends, let me try to find out where he is. Thanks for letting me know.

Niharika: Sure Ram. Thanks.

Ram: Mamaji, do you have any idea, where he was when he last contacted you?

Mamaji: Ram puttar, nahi oye. Maine pucha nahi.

Ram: Theek Hai, main dekhta hoon. Maa, main aur Priya, Aaj Sharma house jaa rahe Hai.

Niharika: Suddenly?

Ram: Nahi, when we got back from US and Cambridge,they were here and insisted on coming for dinner, meanwhile a lot happened and we didn't go, they called me last night and I couldn't get out of it. I had to agree, so.

Niharika: I understand Ram. Have fun, say hi to nuts from me.

Ram: Sure thing maa. Bye.

Ram leaves.

Mamaji: Oye sweety, ye Ram jo keh raha Hai each Hai? Ya

Niharika: Ram mera bhola beta Hai. Jhoot aur woh bhi mujhse, no chance.

Mamaji: Ye Sid kaha Hai?

Niharika: Wahi toh! Yahan ram usko Singapore kA company kA maalik banana chahta Hai, aur yeh.

------------

Ram knocks on his bedroom door, before he opens it.

Ram: This is open. Priya? Are you ready?

Priya: I am inside.

Ram: Let me close the door and come.

Ram slowly walks into the changing room, to a Party dressed in a beautiful green saree with red border, looking very radiant.

Ram: Kya baat Hai? The moment we are going to your parents house, you get ready so well and look so cute, pretty at the same time.

Priya: Aisi koi baat nahi Hai. Now please change your clothes. You are at home, it's a Sunday and you get ready in a suit? Seriously, if you don't change your dressing style, I will go back to calling you Mr. Kapoor.

Ram: Aise dhamki Kyun de rahi ho?

Ram puts his hands around her waist.

Ram: Batao, Kya pehnu?

Priya, sets herself free and brings a bag out of the closet and hands it to Ram. It has a neat button down shirt, complimenting her saree.

Ram: You know what, I think you have planned my dressing as to coordinate with your dresses. I have noticed this ever since we got back from our trip.

Priya: Yes. So? You have a problem with that?

Ram: No. What problem will I have? What matters to me, is you need to like the way I look, it doesn't matter what I think.

Priya: Bahut ho gayi baatein, please get ready.

Ram: Please help me. I am bored. I am tired. Kitta kaam karati ho. Pehle yeh shirt ke buttons kholo, then wear the other one and close the buttons. Change into jeans. You should at least help me with the shirts. I won't ask help for the jeans.

Priya: You have become very dramatic off late.

They get ready and start for Sharma house.

------

At Sharma House, they ring the bell.

Shipra: Priya aur Ram, what a pleasant surprise!

Priya: Haan, Maa, woh us din, humne promise kiya ki hum dinner pe ayenge aur aa nahi paye, toh humne socha, ek poora din aap logon ke saath bitayenge.

Shipra: Acha kiya, andar aao na. Hello Mr. Ram!

Ram: Hello mummyji.

Priya: Papa nahi dikhayi de rahen hai?

Shipra: (disappointed tone) Woh, aaj Kartik aur Natasha aaj shift kar rahe hai na, toh saaman truck mein daalkar chodne gaye hai.

Priya: Kartik aur Natasha chale bhi gaye? Hum logon ne late kardi aane mein.

Shipra: Tumlogon ko pata tha ki woh log shift kar rahe hai?

Ram: Darasal, kal hum dono, Vikram-Neha ke saath dinner pe gaye the, wahi Kartik aur choti se mulakat hui toh, unhone bataya tha.

Shipra: Acha. Nahi, woh abhi sirf saaman rakhne gaye hai, acha sa muhurat dekh ke shift karenge ek ya do din mein.

Priya: Aap theek hai na?

Ram: Main bhi wahi puchne wala tha.

Shipra: Nahi, haan hum theek hai, jo kuch bhi hua hai, hum sab ko thoda space chahiye, aur aisa nahi ki woh Mumbai, chod ke nahi jaa rahe hai na.

Ayesha: Di, Jiju, aap kab aaye?

Ram: Abhi, 5 minute ho gaye. How are you? All set to go? Shopping ho gaya?

Ayesha, Priya and Shipra: Kahan jaane ke liye?

Ram: Oh shoot!. I forgot to tell, woh tumne Ayesha se Paris ki baat nahi ki?

Priya: Kiya toh tha, uske baad us baat pe, aapne kuch kahan nahi, toh mujhe laga thoda time lagega.

Ram: I am so sorry. Let me pull up the email and share it with you guys, I even had your bookings done and completely forgot about it. So sorry.

Ayesha: Wow! So, this is happening! Thank you so much jiju!

Ayesha hugs Priya and Ram both.

Ram: So, you have a flight next week Wednesday in the early hours. I am glad, we met choti and Kartik yesterday, otherwise, I would have completely forgotten about this.

Shipra: Wednesday, yaani, Monday aur Tuesday hi hai humare paas. Kaise hoga sab kuch?

Ayesha: Maa, woh sab kuch pata nahi. Thank you so much Jiju, aap ke wajah se I will live my dream.

Ram: If you want to thank anybody, please thank your sister, I just want her to be happy. If you are happy, she is happy and so, it is all her.

Shipra and Ayesha are surprised and taken aback by Ram's words. They have never seen him speak about Priya this way and there was a different tuning in the appearance and behavior of both Priya and Ram. More significantly, Ram was in a casual Shirt and Jeans. Both give each other looks to communicate- "Somethings brewing!

Meanwhile, Nuts, Kartik and Sudhir arrive.

Sudhir: Arey Priya beta, Ram kaise ho? Achanak?

They tell the whole story and about Ayesha's trip to Paris for a couple of months.

Sudhir: Achi baat hai, par, sabhi bachhe ek hi saath chale jayenge, hum toh akele pad jaayenge.

Priya: Aap aise kyun soch rahen hai, Main, Kartik, Nuts aur Ram toh isi sheher main hai na.

Sudhir, Shipra, Ayesha: Ram???

Priya completely blushing, unable to say anything.

Ram: Haan, mera naam toh Ram hi hai, aur mere ghar mein har mard ka naam Mr. Kapoor hai. So, I insisted and she has after a lot of argument given in.

Shipra: Aap kitna bhi support kijiye, humari Priya badli-badli si lag rahi hai humein.

After a lot of leg pulling, they have lunch, all of them decide to go for a movie and they come back home in the evening, have dinner, play few card games and it is time to leave.

Ayesha: Di, ek minute andar aana toh

Priya: Haan Ayesha bol.

Ayesha: Woh, di I hardly have time to shop and pack, aap agar yahan rukh jaaye, until I fly, toh meri bahut madad hogi.

Priya: haan sure, kyun nahi.

Ram who was passing by to go to the restroom, hears the conversation and immediately rushes to the room.

Ram: Ayesha, Priya tumhare saath shopping ke liye aajayegi, aur der raat tak packing karne mein madam bhi karegi, par yahan rukhna mushkil hoga uske liye.

(Conveying a clear No-No to Priya with his eyes)

Priya: Haan Ayesha, main shopping ke liye aur packing le liye aajaongi, aur raat ko KM chali jaaungi.

Ayesha: Jiju, aap restroom jaa rahe the na.

Ram: Haan, jaa raha hoon.

Ram leaves giving Priya, I am gonna kill you look.

--------

Kartik and Natasha, who witness the whole discussion, come up with an idea. They wait for Ram to come back.

Kartik: Papa, aaj pehli baar hum sab ne itna time saath spend kiya hai, aura cha bhi laga hai, toh, aaj raat ko kyun na, hum di aur Jiju ko rokle aur kal subah jaayenge.

Shipra: Yeh toh bahut acha idea hai Kartik.

Sudhir: Mujhe koi problem nahi hai. I would be very happy to have all my children under the same roof with their life partners.

Ram: (who until now was worried he has to spend a lonely night in KM without Priya is excited): Yeh bhi puchne wali baat hai? Hum rukh jaayenge.

Natasha: (In Ram's Ear) Bhai, ho kya gaya hai aapko?

It was decided, Ram and Priya will stay the night at Sharma's.

-------

Ram and Natasha decide to go for a walk, wanting to catch up with each other and giving the whole Sharma family a space for themselves for a while.

Ram: Choti, pata hai, main hamesha tere liye worried rehta tha, lekin tune apne liye ek acha sa pati, ek acha sa family choose kiya hai, utna hi nahi, you gave me the love of my life!

Natasha: Bhai, I am very happy for you. You know, Kartik and I always were worried, humari wajah se, aap dono ko samjhauta karna pada etc, par ab jab hum aap dono ko dekhte hai, toh we are so relieved. How did this happen? I know, you and I have a big age difference of 17 years and I am like your kid etc, but I am your sister and I want to know, what is going on in my big brother's life.

Ram: (puts his hand on Natasha's shoulder): You know, I never thought, I will fall in love or get married, but it was probably written. I had accepted, in fact Priya and I had accepted, it is a compromise marriage, but, the more we got to know each other, the more we realized, we were meant to be. Priya gets me, I don't have to communicate what is bothering me with words. She just gets me, with the slightest of change in expression on my face, she gets my emotions. There are lot of things which are difficult for me to put it in words and tell you how I feel, but I feel like a teenager.

Natasha: That's good, but yeh aap kya kar rahe the? Priya ko you were telling her not to spend the night here?

Ram: We already got married late, after a point in your life, everyone needs companionship more than the physical need, it is the sense of belonging. An assurance, no matter what happens tomorrow, I have this person, who will be with me. Who will stand by me. When you get that kind of a person this late in your life, you are worried of losing them.

After a long pause and silence.

Natasha: Bhai, you know, what, you look very handsome and you seem to have lost weight too. You look younger than you used to look before. Kya chal raha hai?

Ram: I was waiting for this compliment from last night from you. I have started to workout, diet and change in the wardrobe is difference.

Natasha: Aap? Workout? Diet? I never knew these words existed in your dictionary!

Ram: haha. Very funny. Chal lets go back, we have walked a lot. Aur waise bhi, aaj workout ke badle mein mera walking hogaya.

Natasha: Bhai, lets walk a little more, wahan Kulfi wala rehta hai, Priya loves Kulfi wahan se.

Ram: hahahaha... Sure. Thanks, waise.

Natasha: Kyun?

Ram: For asking me to stay the night.

Natasha: Bhai, aap cute ho mujhe pata tha, aap itne cute ho, nahi pata tha.

They buy Kulfi's for everyone and head back.

-------

Meanwhile at Sharma House:

Kartik: Di, ho kya raha hai? Kal maine aap ko single piece dress mein dekha tha, Jiju is wearing Polo's, colorful shirts, jeans. More importantly, he doesn't seem like, he wants to stay away from you even for a bit.

Ayesha: Haan di ho kya raha hai?

Shipra: Batao Priya! Aagey bad gaye kya?

Sudhir: Shipra, yeh kaisi baatein kar rahi ho?

Shipra: Aap na andar jaayiye, main toh aise hi baat karoongi.

Kartik: Di, I am very happy for you and very relieved. I used to feel guilty, because of me, I forced you get married, but this change in you both has relieved me.

Priya: Ram, bahut ache hai, gussa zyada karte the, lekin bahut hi dil ke saaf hai. And important thing is he gets me. He just gets me.

Similar kind of discussion occurs between the Sharma parivar, when Ram and Natasha get back home with Kulfi.

Everyone is happy to see Ram bring Kulfi for Priya and they have it and finally, they decide to hit the bed, where, Ram and Priya are asked to take Ayesha's room for the night, and Ayesha would sleep in the hall and the rest proceed as per their regular routine.

Sorry guys for the delay. To compensate, I have written a lengthy update. Hope you guys like it.!
