PART 2
There was shining lights everyhere. The house was decorated with the beautiful flowers. It was in all colours..decorated around every corner. The stairs , the door , the windows. The weather was slightly harsh. It was windy. It may be due to the fight that happenned between Rahul and Muskaan. The harsh fight had turned the weather also harsh. The following night was full of suprises.
In the centre of the hall was kept a double-seated sofa set. It was also decorated with flowers..and decorations. Rahul and Muskaan were brought down to the hall. Muskaan looked beautiful..with a shimmering pink lehenga choli with all her jewelery and mehedi. Rahul looked amazing too. He was wearing a black-gold sherwani. Their colours co-ordinated some how. Maybe a co-incidence.
They were both seated on the sofa, surrounded by various people. They're cousins , friends. Heavy chattings were going on. Muskaan was in a grumpy mood , but Rahul was rather cheerful and was taking part in the discussions and was giving frequent smiles. It lighted the moments. The engagement ceremony was decided on a time according to the muhurat and there was plenty of time. As it was a punjabi function , there was lots of action. There was loud music , dances , dhol..ect ect. Muskaan's ears were bursting..she just wanted to get up and go away. She smirked thinking the way Rahul had spoken on the phone, wait and watch'. Hah! Why hadn't he done anything..because she was sure..whatever he says, he does it. He has all the guts in the world.
"Yehi soch rahi ho ke maine abhi tak badla kyun nahin lliya?" Rahul whispered in Muskaan's ears..amongst smiles. Its as if he read her mind.
"Mujhe koi parvah nahin hai..tumhe jo karna hai karo..Hmph! Mujhse dur rehna. Samjhe tum." She answered fuming.
"Actually..thanks tumne mujhe idea de diya..mere badle ke liye..if you didn't understand!" He came and sat close to her. Their arms touched.
"Rahul..gadhe..hat mujhse dur..haath lagaya to na main..kheench ke tujhe chanta marungi."
"Oh..really?" He came even close and caught her hand. He entwingled her fingers with his. "Im sure mujhe koi rokega nahin. Mujhe to tumhe mazza chakane se matlab hai."
He chuckled. She was only glaring at him. "Tumhara chehra dekhne layak lag raha hai." He smiled. She quickly changed her expressions and tried to free her hand. But it was to hard. He was caressing her palm in public view..If her mummyji-daddyji saw..she would be dead. She was feeling ticklish. It had been her weakness since child-hood. If anybody touched her also , she would feel the goose-bumps.
"Rahul mera haath chod sab dekh rahen hai.."
"To dekhne do..who cares..officially tum mere hone waali ho..anways.." He smiled.
Muskaan saw a few people whispering..pointing towards them..she just pulled Rahul's hands down. Just then their friends and cousins called them for a dance. Muskaan got the oppoturnity to go away.
"Haan..bas ek min..mujhe Sonia se kuch kaam hai.." She freed her hand and got up to walk. Just then all Rahul's side of relatives pushed Muskaan down.
"Arre bhabhji..itni jaldi bhi kya hai?"
This was the worst expected. She fell on that idiot Rahul. And he like an idiot was not leaving her. She felt so embarssed when all his friends and cousins teased them..she gave a fake blush and went
away to search for Sonia and Radhika. She found them sitting on a table in a far end corner. She slmost rushed towards them. She sat down. Her dress almost got tangled in her shoes , but she manged somehow.
"Hey..Muskaan..dhyaan se...itni jaldi kya hai?" Radhika said. Both of them glared at her.
"Tu itna bhag kyun rahi hai? Sab theek hai na? Tujhe to Rahul ke saath bethna chaiye." Sonia continued.
"Naam mat le to uska!!" Muskaan screamed. Sonia got scared.
"Ssssh..Muskaan..sab dekh rahe hai." Radhika told her.
"To dekhne do. Uss kaminey ne mera..uff..saara mood kharab kar diya!! Sab ke saamne usne mera haath pakad liya!"
Radhika and Sonia smiled. "To isme achi baat hai na? You both are getting used to each other." Added Sonia.
"Haha..Rahul..aur mere peeche..Woh jaan puchke aise kar raha hai..kyunki maine gusse main usse thode gusse se jo baat karli..itna gussa chad gaya ke ab mera haath pakad liya, apne gode main bitha liya..jaanu jaanu kiya fir raha hai..ab main kya karun babaji??" She said in a breath. Both her friends stared in amazement.
When some one called her.."Hey bhabs.." Muskaan started fuming..again bhabhi..im gonna kill that person. She got up in anger dashing Armaan.
"Armaan tum? Mujhe bhabhi bulaya to ek lafa lagaungi." She said angrily.
"Okay..sorry..Muskaan..tum yahan ho..sab tumhe dhund rahen hai..Rahul ke saath dance nahin karna kya?" He said jokingly and sat down next to her.
"Armaan yaar..mere sar main bada dard ho raha hai..chakkar aa rahe hai.." Muskaan said holding her head and falling on Armaan.
"Bas -bas apna natak band karo..aur seedhe ho jao." He pushed her. She made a face and got back to normal. "Waise apne friends se intro nahin karogi?"
She made a grumpy face. Sonia laughed. "Hi..Im Sonia." she said putting her hand forward. "Oh..to tum ho Atul ki girl-friend." He said shaking her hand. "Oops..mera matlab.." He was searching for words among Muskaan's horror-filled eyes. He qucikly turned to Radhika.
"Radhika." She said glumly.
"Oh..nice name..I hope aap kisi ki girl-friend nahin hai?"
"No..aur bana chahti bhi nahin.."
"Attitude haan..i like it..by the way..Im Armaan..Armaan Malik..every girls wish." He said tugging at his collar.
Radhika made a face. "Attitude mujhme nahin tumhe hai..flirting main P.H.D ki huye hai."
"Flirting to dur ki baat hai..humne to aur bhi cheezon main P.H.D kiya hai..aap kahen to ek cup coffee pe bata sakta hun?" He said dreamily.
"Oh. Really. I wouldn't mind." She said with a half-smile. Sonia and Muskaan got up , to let those two flirt by themselves.
"Sonia......" Muskaan cried..."Mujhe bahut garmi lag rahi hai..mujhe dress change kar ni hai..mujhe ghar jaana hai.."
"Sssh..chup kar Muskaan..aise roni shakal mat bana.."
"Haan-haan. Bol ye sab. Khud to AC bani huye hai..aur main yahan heater!!" Sonia was wearing a lehenga whose blouse reached just above her waist. And the lehenga was low showing her bare waist. But she had her dupatta pinned in a way it was hidden , much on Atul's insistence. She wearing the most minimal jewellery compared to Muskaan's huge set.
Between their conversation , suddenly the music started in to a slow romantic tone. Sonia and Muskaan looked at each other.
From behind , Muskaan felt somebody's hand go up her waist and she was pulled centre stage. The room was dark. Only light glared on them. It was Rahul. There was complete silence. All she could hear was her breath lost in Rahul's. Even she wasnt far behind on being lost in to him. She remembered her school days when she was crazy over him. He danced swiftly and Muskaan didn't know how , but she followed him every step correctly gazing into his eyes. There was a grace in her that amazed Rahul.They danced continiously for a minute , like real lovers..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was break-fast at Muskaan's house. Rahul and Muskaan were on a weekend break after hectic work at Sanjeevani. Rahul's parents had come over with Rahul. She sat on the table all alone eating her sandwhich and reading a fashion magazine. Rahul came and sat next to her.
"Wow..subah newspaper padha jata hai..aur ye madam to fashion magazine padh rahi hai.."
"Tumse matlab? Mere haath. Mere magazine."
"Whatever..mujhe bhuk lag rahi hai..break-fast main kya hai? Mujhe serve karo..utho..lazy-bum. Kuch kam karo." He said pushing her.
"Ye mera ghar hai..main yahan ki naukrani nahin ho..jo tumhe serve karun." She immitated him.
"You are so irritating..Mujhe tumse subah-subhah jhagda karne ka koi shauk nahin hai.." He took some food and ate while checking out newspapers.
Rahul's and Muskaan's dad spoke as usual , about the recent stock-market and business , while Rahul and Muskaan's mom gossiped.
"Pata hai..main na Mumbai gaye thi..aur ye gadhe ne mujhe ek kudi se milwaya..angrezi main chatar-patar kiye ja rahi thi...aise bahu mile to maut hai mere!!" Rahul's mom said.
Rahul and Muskaan were able to hear their conversations. Muskaan giggled while Rahul angrily.."Mom!" Muskaan again giggled and said.."Kaun thi Sanjana..shaadi ka plan bana rahe ho kya?" and she winked at him. "Just shut up..and dont interfere in my personal matters." He replied back angrily.
"Hmph! By the way..enjoy.." And she started to giggle irritating Rahul more than ever.
"Acha? Mere Muskaan ke liye to main ache sone munde dhund rahe hun..Kal..ye bhi na..pakad laye ko angrez.." Muskaan's mum continued.
Muskaan became embarssed and now Rahul laughed.
"Acha..mujhe koi soni kudi batana..Rahul ke liye..dhoom-dham se karungi main shaadi iski.." said Rahul's mom.
Now both Rahul and Muskaan gave up and got engrossed in what ever they were doing.
Meanwhile both their dad's business conversation had ended. Even they took part in what they're wives were talking.
"Oyye Jasmeet..Kudi kya dunhi hai..woh to yahen hai..hamare paas..." Said Rahul's dad.
"Haan..Pammi..aur yahan par ek sona munda bhi to hai..bilkul hamari Muskaan ke liye bana huya.." Muskaan's dad said.
Both of them confused looks. Then their husbands pointed towards Rahul and Muskaan. They were fighting for some reason. Rahul told Muskaan to sit straight. She asked him why? So he told her shes got
sauce on her nose. Muskaan got embarassed and hurriedly tried to take it away. Rahul told her to relax and he'll take it. He touched her nose , and put the sauce which was on his finger and started laughing. She realised it and started to run behind him. But both of them stopped seeing their parents. They had weird looks on their face..Some sort of a dreamy face..doing vari-vari.
"Aap sab aise kyun dekh rahe hai?" She realised she was holding Rahul's shirt. She quickly left it.
"Yeh to humne kabhi socha hi nahin..haina?" Said Rahul's mom.
"Haan..bade hi budhu hai hum.." Muskaan's mom contiued.
"Kya nahin socha?" Rahul asked. Muskaan was totally confused.
"Ke ladka - ladki to yahin hai..mere taraf se to rishta fix hi samjho.." Rahul's mom said. She got up and went and hugged Muskaan.
"Rishta?" Rahul and Muskaan said in unision.
"Haan..tum dono ka rishta..sone lagde na dono..ji?" All agreed.
"Ma..Main isse shaadi nahin karunga!!" Rahul said adamantly.
"Aur mujhe bhi nahin karni iss gadhe se shaadi.." Muskaan said.
"Rahul puttar..Muskaan puttar..mere sau..koi aur hai kya tumhari zindagi main.."
"Nahin par..." Both again said in unision.
But nobody was listeing to them. All four of them were busy in discussing on how to announce it. One normal day. And their engagement gets fixed. Its a dream. Its all a dream yes. In anger she slapped Rahul on his back a couple of times and went inside almost crying.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rahul clicked his fingers in front of Muskaan. "Kya hua..kho gaye mujhme?"
She realised that their dance was over. She was still in Rahul's arms. She moved away. She saw that Sonia and Bhaiya were dancing too..Bhaiya was adjusting her dupatta again..Armaan and Radhika were also dancing..flirting in between. Her thoughts were interupted by Rahul.
"Dance abhi tak khatam nahin huya..Muskaan baby.." He said seducingly. He again caught her waist and continued to dance.
"Dekho Rahul tum..ab bas bhi karo..I am SORRY..happy? Main gusse main thi.."
"Hah! Finally." He loosend his grip on her waist.
Muskaan was happy that he had left her. But she was also sad..Why did he? She was acting like a dum idiot she told herself.
Now all the elders came and told everyone to stop dancing. It was time for the engagement to begin. Rahul-Muskaan looked at each other. They were dumb-struck. Finally the moment had come.
Rahul - Muskaan sat on the sofa..surrounded by people. Rahul's mom gave him the engagement ring. He brought it closer to her hand.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mom..dad..please..aap log serious hai? Main aur Muskaan..no ways..kabhi bhi nahin..aap ek jungli janwar ko mere gale bandna chahte hai..."
"Rahul beta..bas karo humne soch liya hai..to soch liya hai.."
He kept on arguing.."No ways..Im going away from here..I dont want to stay here..bye.."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Muskaan was lost in her thoughts. Radhika gave Muskaan's hand forward and Rahul slid it in her engagement finger.
Now Muskaan's mom gave her the ring. Her hands started shivering..her whole body was shivering..She dint know what to do..or where was she...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mummyji..Rahul sahi ladka nahin hai..main apse keh rahe hun na..main jaanti hun..aap mere baat samjho. Papaji aap samjahye na."
"Acha Muskaan puttar..tujhe Rahul pasand nahin hai to..hum..phir ek baar.." Said he dad,
"Aap..iska saath mat dijiye ye to apko bewakoof bana rahi hai..Rahul sahi ladka hai..aur maine soch liya to soch liya. Bas."
"Par..mummyji...." Muskaan started crying.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Muskaan slid the ring in his finger. There was raining of flowers from top.
Everybody in the hall rejoiced happily.....except the bride and groom.
