The whole day both were trying hard to forget about that encounter. But still couldn't.
But as time passes & they got busy in their lives, they didn't get time to think about it...
Like this 10 days passed.
It was MahaShivratri
ISHWARI NIWAS
Dev in his room working on his laptop. Just then Ishwari entered
Ishwari : "Dev! Tu ab tak taiyaar nahi hua. Tu to bas apne kaam mein hi khoya rehta hai. Sahi kaha tha Neha ne, jab teri zindagi mein koi ladki aaegi tabhi tu apne liye waqt nikalna seekhega.
Dev : "Kya maa! Tu to ab meri shaadi ke peeche hi pad gayi.
Ishwari : "Accha bhai! Tujhe abhi shadi nahi karni to na kar. Lekin kya kehte hain...wo... girl friend hi bana le. Koi ladki aayegi teri zindagi mein, to khud hi zindagi jeena seekh jaayega. Aur khud aake kahega, maa mujhe is ladki se shadi karni hai. Jaldi se pandit ji se kehkar muhurat nikalwa shadi ka, aur haan yeh bhi kahega, maa muhurat thoda jaldi ka hi nikalwana.
Dev : "Kya maa! Ab tub bhi meri taang kheech rahi hai. Kyun meri zindagi mein ladki laane pe tule ho tum sab!
Ishwari : "Pehle se hi koi hai kya?
Dev : "Kya maa! Koi ladki nahi hai. Aur na hi koi aane wali hai.
Ishwari : "Jab ladki aayegi, to tujhse poochke thode hi na aayegi. Wo to khud hi tere dil mein apne liye jagah bana legi. Tu bhi nahi rok paayega. Dekh lena... (with a wink)
Dev : "Maa! Tu subah subah mujhe is baare mein lecture dene aayi thi? (totally annoyed)
Ishwari : "Arey! Tere chakkar mein, jo bolne aayi thi... Wahi bolna bhool gayi.
Aaj MahaShivratri hai.
Tujhe to pata hai na, aaj ke din hum sab mandir jaakar gareebon mein kambal baantte hain. To is baare mein tujhe bataane aayi thi.
Dev : "Oh! Main to is baare mein bhool hi gaya tha. Main abhi taiyaar hoke neeche aata hun. Par maa tu mujhe mandir ke andar jaane ke liye nahi bolegi. Tu jaaanti hai na...
Ishwari cut off his sentence
Ishwari : "Bohot acche se jaanti hun. Lekin tu kab tak yun hi bhagwaan se naaraz rahega.
Dev : "Maa! Ye mere aur bhagwaan ke beech ki baat hai. Tu iske beech nahi bolegi.
Ishwari : "Accha baba! Nahi bolungi. Par ye ummeed (hope) zaroor karungi ki tum dono ki beech ki ye ladaai jald hi khatam ho jaaye.
Tu taiyaar ho jaa, main teri behno ko dekhti hun... Wo taiyaar hui ki nahi...

MEHRA MANSION
Sona was ready in a beautiful orange suit.
Shekhar : "Arey waah! Aaj mera bacha bada sundar lag raha hai. Kahaaan jaa rahe ho itna taiyaar hoke. Koi boyfriend ban gaya kya?
Sona : "Ek Elena kam thi kya dad. Ab jo aap bhi boyfriend ki jaap kar rahe ho.
Shekhar : "Lagta hai, aaj yahaan ka temperature kuch zada hi hai. Sorry, is topic pe koi baat nahi hogi.
His cute antics made Sona smile.
Sona : "Dad! Aisa kuch nahi hai.
Khair chodo, dad yaad nahi aapko aaj MahaShivratri hai. To mandir jaa rahi thi. Aap bhi chaliye na.
Shekhar : "So sorry beta! Mujhe pehle pata hota, to ye meeting na aarange karta. Par ab last minute pe aise meeting cancel karna to sahi nahi na, to tum jaao.
Lekin, meri taraf se prayer karna mat bhoolna.
Sona : "No problem dad. Aur ye bhi koi bolne wali baat hai. Ofcourse karungi.
She bid a good bye to her father & left for temple.
****************************
Dixit family reached temple.
Ishwari & his daughters came outside the car.
Nikki : "Bhaiya! Aap aaj bhi nahi chaloge.?
Ishwari : "Rehne de Nikki! Isko bolke koi faayda nahi. Ye nahi aane waala. Main to bas praarthna (pray) hi kar sakti hun ki wo din jaldi aaye, jab yeh bhi mandir ki chokhat pe apne kadam rakhe.
Hum log chalte hain. Dev tu yaheen intezaar kar.
Dev : "Han! Tum log jaldi jaake aao. Main yaheen intezaar kar raha hun.
And then they went inside the temple.
After waiting for them for 15 minutes, he came outside the car.
A little boy came to him & hold his hand.
Boy : "Bhaiya! 500 rupay de do na. meri maa bimar hai. Uske liye dawai laani hai. Agar dawai nahi di, to meri maa mar jaayegi.
He was crying saying all this. It made Dev emotional. Dev had tears in his eyes seeing that boy like this.
Dev sat down to match his height.
Dev : "Tum aisa ro rahe ho. Koi dekhega to kya sochega. Tum to big boy ho na. aur big boys kya aise rote hain. Tumhe to apni maa ki strength banana hai. Wo tumhe aise rote hue dekhengi, to unhe kitna dard hoga.
Hearing Dev's words, the boy immediately wiped his tears.
Boy : "Haan! Bhaiya. Aap sahi bol rahe ho. Main ab nahi rounga. Main to apni maa ki taakat banunga.
And then Dev gave him a 2000 rupees note.
Boy : "Nahi bhaiya! Itne paise nahi chahiye.
Dev : "Rakh lo. Kaam aayenge.
Boy hugged Dev & thanked him.
Dev : "Ab jaao. Dawaai le lo apni maa ke liye. Wo tumhara intzaar kar rahi hongi.
And the boy goes from there with a smile on his face.
