Part 4 (a) - Sweet Revenge

As the ritual of muh dikhai started, women came turn by turn and complimented dadi on getting a beautiful wife for his son.

Guddan tried to smile her level best, trying to ignore the searing pain shooting through her ankle, every time an aunty mistakenly touched it. She could just scream it out, but then she was quite sure that AJ uncle would chop her head off with his knife and eat her.

No! He will feed her to the dogs and cats and whatnot. Because most probably her taste wasn't going to be good enough to be swallowed by him!

The point is she wasn't scared of him. She just didn't want to see his sour face twice a day. Once was enough, another one would definitely make her want to go blind!

Halfway through the ceremony, doctor showed up, and in Akshat Jindal's 'glaring' presence, treated her ankle.

The doctor was not the target. She was...of his glares, that is.

Once the doctor was gone, in a shockingly surprising turn of events, all 3 bahus flashed their pearl whites at her, when they picked up her veil for muh dikhai.

Thank god, the shock didn't last for too long. Varna Guddan ka sacchai par se bharosa uth jata!

First came the eldest daughter in law of the house, Durga Jindal. She leaned her lips closer to Guddan's ears and whispered, " I'll make your life a living hell".

And then tubelight wali smile.

Ahh, aisa pyaar ho toh, insaan ko marne ke liye diabetes ki zaroorat nhi hai

Guddan smiled. Usse taane maarne ka copyright sirf mummy ke paas hai.

"Durga bahu, wait!" Guddan called out.

Durga turned around, raising a brow in surprise.

"Mujhe bhi aapse kuch kehna tha, zara idhar aaie na..."

As Durga leaned closer, her eyes narrowed in suspicion.

"Arre, ghabraiye mat, daantoogi nhi! Saas hone ki field mein yeh mera debut hai na!" Guddan smiled foolishly, causing Durga's lips to twitch in annoyance.

"I was just saying that, rather than threatening me, why don't you go and talk to your 'AJ'?!"

Durga's eyes widened, at her MIL's audacity.

"And vese bhi bahu, saas ko nhi...saas, bahu ki zindagi ko living hell banati hai!" Guddan announced staring into Durga's fuming face.

"Aisa maine suna hai..." Guddan concluded, smiling innocently like a child dictating a gossip to his parents.

Then came Saraswati. As she lifted the veil, she spoke in a funnily menacing way.

"36 ka aankra hai humara!"

"1760 ka kyu nhi!!" Guddan quipped back, questioningly.

"Vo...vo mujhe pta nhi", Saru stammered, caught off guard, and scurried away quickly.

And then came Lakshmi Jindal, smirking in her usual I-am-the-best way.

Guddan stared at her from under the veil and whispered to herself, "Sorry partner, par dhokebaazo ke liye, only punishment!"

As Lakshmi moved forward, Guddan extended her right leg in front of her making her trip, and fall down straight into Guddan's feet.

"Arre Lakshmi bahu, jeeti raho!" Guddan blessed trying to suppress the chuckle threatening to escape from her lips, by keeping her palms on Lakshmi's head.

Saru looked on, puzzled.

"Jiji, ye lakshmi ko kya hua!!" Saru asked, to which Durga continued to glare at Guddan.

"Uthiye, aapki jagah mere charno mein nhi, mere dil mein hai", Guddan proclaimed dramatically, as she held Lakshmi by her arms and helped her up.

Once up, Lakshmi scurried away, huffing and puffing in irritation, embarrassment added!

Soon, to Guddan's absolute relief, muh dikhai was over and everyone moved to the temple area, where Dadi had organised a pooja for Akshat's and Guddan's happy married life.

As the pooja started, pandit asked the new husband-wife duo to come forward and do the Aarti together.

As Guddan and AJ came forward, AJ held the handle of Diya in his palms while Guddan's fingers encircled over his.

And they both shared a long look.

(Tere haathon mein, naa meri lakereein...

Hain bahot alag si, apni taqdeerein...)

Once they were done, they gave the diya to Durga and her husband.

Everyone had their eyes closed when Guddan's eyes snapped open, in extreme worry.

She had heard a snapping sound...and that feel!

*snap*

Guddan's eyes widened like saucers, as she felt another one come loose.

She peeped to her right side, to see Akshat deep in prayer and then looked around, to confirm that no one was watching. Once assured, Guddan started to slip away from temple area. She had almost wobbled her way towards the stairs when another *snap* sound struck her ears, and in extreme state of panic, she ascended to the first step of stairs when someone pulled her back.

"Kahan ja rhi thi!?" Akshat asked.

"Vo...main...room.." Guddan uttered getting increasingly uncomfortable.

"Tum 2 minute shanti se khadi bhi nhi ho sakti kya!!" Akshat chided her.

'Bas ek hi bacha hai' Guddan struggled in his grip.

"Chalo mere saath", Akshat ordered and started to drag her away when she resisted.

"Aap chaliye naa uncle, I'll come in 2 minutes", Guddan spoke trying to get away from him.

But he won't budge.

'Jaane do na!!' Guddan whined internally.

"Jo bhi kaam hai, baad mein kar lena. This pooja is for US, so you should be HERE", Akshat emphasised and started to drag her away.

In a final attempt to preserve her 'slippping' chastity, Guddan held the railing of staircase and held her ground.

Akshat glared at her. How stubborn!

Guddan pleadingly looked at him.

'It's coming loose!!! ' Guddan shrieked internally.

"Kitni dheeth ho tum!"

"Kitne dheeth hain aap!"

Both spoke in unison, as Akshat tried to pull Guddan away while she tried to resist.

"Chodo usse!"

"Chodo mujhe!!"

Both spoke in unison yet again ( AJ, in context of railing)

"Let me go! Its falling apart!!!" Guddan whined.

"What??!", Akshat asked getting annoyed.

"My blouse!" Guddan replied.

"What!!!" Surprised Akshat let his hands fall free to his sides

*snap*

Both's eyes widened as Akshat turned around in embarrassment, while Guddan crossed her hands in front of her chest, to prevent the blouse from slipping off.

"Khadi kya ho!!Hurry to the room before someone else shows up!" AJ ordered in a state of absolute fluster.

Guddan peeped at him. Why was he closing his eyes? He had his back turned to her!

"Gayi kya?!" AJ enquired in a state of emergency.

"JA RHI HU!" Guddan replied annoyed at his kiddish behaviour.

Izzat uski khatre mein hai aur sharam inhe aa rhi hai!!

As Guddan turned around to ascend the stairs, her eyes widened on seeing Parv and his name escaped from her lips.

"Parvvv!!"

Akshat's eyes snapped open and then in a flash, Guddan was pulled away from the stairs to the tiny space right below it.

When Guddan opened her eyes, she saw herself being enveloped by Akshat Jindal's huge frame, squeezing in the tiny space that could hardly room a single person. And here she and huge AJ were packed together.

His frame towered over her, as his Godzilla sized palms covered her mouth, while his arrogant head tried its level best to peek over the stairs.

"Mmphh..mmhpphh..", Guddan tried to speak as Akshat turned around to glare at her. She tried to remove his hands but as always, to no avail.

The instant she had cupped his palm with hers, to try to remove them from her mouth, realization dawned and her hands quickly crossed in front of her chest.

Akshat's eyes widened and he felt uncomfortable.

"Main..haath. hata raha hu, kuch bolna mat. Parv is right over our head...ok??!" AJ asked.

As Guddan nodded, AJ removed his palm and concentrated on hearing to Parv.

It seemed like he was talking on phone and didn't plan to move anytime soon.

And this place was dangerous, the house was brimming with people and if accidentally, someone saw them...a scandal was bound to follow!

But I need more😭

Love it

It seemed like he was talking on phone and didn't plan to move anytime soon.

And this place was dangerous, the house was brimming with people and if accidentally, someone saw them...a scandal was bound to follow!

AJ took in a deep breath. This needed to be done.

"Guddan.." he whispered.

She looked at him confused.

"Don't shriek", and before Guddan could process his words, AJ hugged her close, skin tight.

Guddan's eyes flew open, in shock. She didn't know why, but her breath hitched and her heart rate suddenly accelerated. An odd feeling raced through her spine making her shudder. Was she ill?

Akshat hugged Guddan close, dipping his face in her neck, one arm going over her shoulders while other encircled her waist.

"Ye aap kya..." she tried to protest, but her face was muffled in his coat.

"Shut up! Don't raise your face either, someone is here!", Akshat hissed menacingly as he raised his eyes slightly to see the man on other side of stairs, leave while shaking his head.

Guddan squirmed uncomfortably. His hands were all over her back! (Over the pallu)

" Agar aapne apne haath wahan se nhi hataye na, main aapko kadhai main tal doongi!", Guddan threatened Akshat as she closed her teeth over whatever came in her mouth.

His brows rose, shocked as he looked at his palms that were touching her back and he removed them quickly.

"Why the hell is this Parv not going away?" Akshat spoke to himself, trying to escape Guddan's glares.

Out of options, he turned to look at her.

Guddan expected an explanation for his abrupt action but he repeated the same stunt again and pulled her closer.

Frustrated at the strange way, her body was feeling, she pinched his waist as tightly as possible. Akshat winced.

But she wouldn't stop and dug her extra-long nail into his kurta ,into his waist.

"Arre, kya kar rahi ho?!Tumhara blouse set kar raha hu!!" Akshat explained to prevent the barrage of tortures his nayi biwi was throwing at him, or his expensive coat.

"Kese!?" Guddan enquired, continuing with her chinese assault.

"Rukooo, ek minute!" AJ hissed, his lips twitching.

And with that, he pulled out 2 bobby pins, out of her hair. In reply, Guddan pinched him extra hard and AJ winced.

"Kitni mushkil se baal set kiye the!Aapne bigaad diye!!' She whined.

"Agar saree dhang se baandhti toh ye naubat nhi aati", he chided her, while catching hold of the right hand, whose fingers she was using to pinch and scratch him.

"Saree theek hi thi jab mene daali, Hook loose tha toh main kya karu!! Or mera haath chodiye!" Guddan warned trying to twist her wrist out of his grip.

"Can't you stay quiet?I can't fix your blouse with one hand and to use my other hand, i need to let go of yours and unless and until you promise to stop this torture, I won't let go!" Akshat explained, impatience surfacing in his tone. They had been at it for too long. Pooja would be over anytime and they will be doomed.

In reply, Guddan snorted in defiance and poked his kurta, over stomach.

And Akshat lost it.

"Fine, we can just stand here embracing each other in this dark corner while your blouse is threatening to come off. When someone walks in on us, they'll think that we were having a rendezvous because we couldn't keep our hormones in check", Akshat grunted.

Guddan's eyes widened.

Rendezvous?! With AJ uncle!! Yuck!

"Theek hai...theek hai, jaldi se kijiye!" Guddan replied helplessly and hugged him. Akshat slowly removed her veil as her back was exposed to him and he gulped.

His fingers shivered, as he tried to pierce the pin through blouse. He was trying his level best to avoid touching her back but his forefinger slightly touched her back causing her back to arch away from his touch, involuntarily.

"Sorry, vo galti se..."Akshat apologised, fisting his hand.

Guddan nodded meekly, " Aap kar dijiye"

And finally with great deal of efforts, Akshat pierced the pin through both edges of blouse, temporarily holding them together.

"Ho gaya!" Both had just sighed in relief when a voice called out to them.

"Akshat!"

Guddan's eyes widened. Akshat, who had his back towards the open side, stiffened to stillness and Guddan let out her name in shock, "Paulomi aunty!".

Confused, Paulomi moved closer.

Akshat hadn't yet made an attempt to move away from his compromising position.

"Mujhe nhi pata tha ki Akshat Jindal itna romantic hai!Guddan is still a child, but you are so mature and yet you are having a rendezvous, here!" Paulomi spoke, a mischievous grin spreading to her lips.

"Don't be ridiculous!" Akshat retorted exasperated.

"Is there anyone else here!?" He asked.

Paulomi looked around and said, "No..."

With that, Akshat moved away, with his palm still latched to Guddan's back, trying to hold the blouse in place.

"Pooja ho gayi kya?" He asked.

"Bas hone wali hai. I had went out to recieve an important call and while coming in, my eyes fell on you", she replied.

"Do you have safety pins?" He asked monotonously, not bothering to reply in kind.

"Haa..par.." Paulomi replied confused when AJ cut in.

"Then help her out quickly", he ordered in his usual no nonsense tone and left from there.

As he hurried off, Guddan held her blouse while Paulomi looked at AJ's retreating form in amusement.

"Antara tumhari aakhiri iccha, Akshat ki zindagi mein jaan foonk hi degi!"
