This is a completely random and different drabble kind of thing that I wrote during my break. In an au world into the future. I have not proofread it or edited, so maybe it turns out a bit boring and dlgs a bit lengthy. But i wanted to share it. Tell me what you guys think about this ❣️
" maa, i am really scared. Papa ne kuch nahi bola. Woh achanak se chale gayee. Woh mujhse naraaz hai kya? " A tensed Shreya asked raavi.
" Yeh kaisi baat kar rahi hai? Unka gussa pura Somnath famous hai par aajtak tujhse kabhi gussa huye hai? Unhe thoda waqt de. Ab tune itni badi baat boli hai to accept karne mai thoda time to lagega na " raavi explained to her caressing her hair.
Shreya took a deep breath and laid down on raavis lap who calmed her down whispering sweet nothings. Raavi was also overwhelmed with the news their daughter gave them but she has to be strong because she knew how shiva was feeling from all this and he needed someone to make him calm.

" Aree sab kuch ekdum perfect honaa chahiye. Khaan, venue, decorations. Matlab yeh shaadi pure somnath ko yaad rahegi " gombi said elated.
" Hann bilkul.ho bhi kyu na. Aakhir hamari gudiya ki shaadi hai. Koi kami nahi rehni chahiye. Maine Tara ko bhi bol diya hai chhuti lekar jald se jald ghar aa jaaye " dhara exclaimed happily.
" Of course bhabi. Sab kuch Dhoom dhaam se hoga. Yeh lehenga dekhiye na.sabyasachi ka naya collection hai. Shreya par kitna khilega " rishita said showing it to dhara.
"Rishita, tum lehenga dekhne Mai lag gayi. Pehle vivaan ko to bata do ki uski choti behen ki shaadi hai " dev said
" Ohh no. Mai to excitement mai bhul gayi " rishita went to call her son who was in hostel.
" Kyaa ho Raha hai yeh sab? " Shiva shouted from the door.
" Shaadi ki taiyariya ho rahi hai shiva. Aur kya? " Krish said giving him a hug.
" Koi mazaak hai kya? Meri bacchi ki puri zindagi ka sawaal hai. Usne keh diya aur aap logo ne yeh taam jhaam karna shuru kar diya. Hadd hoti hai " shiva threw the wedding catalogues and angrily went to the room.
Dhara was about to go after him but saw raavi who nodded silently indicating that she will take care of him.
" Yeh shiva ko kya ho gaya?" Dev asked confused.
" Beti ka baap jo hai " gombi said remembering his taras marriage and how he had felt.dhara nodded and prayed that shiva would be okay. He is very sensitive when it comes to family, especially Shreya.
**************************************************
Shiva was sitting on the bed holding his head. Raavi came from behind and hugged him.
" Kya hua mere bhole bhootnath? Itnaa gussa? she said kissing his ears softly.
" Dekh Chipkali.mere dimaag ka dahi ban chuka hai. Ab tu aur lassi mat bana. Jaa idhar se " shiva said .
Raavi sighed. This teasing and pampering won't work. She has to get straight to the point.she sat besides him and held his hand.
" Shreya ko lekar pareshan hai " she softly asked.
" To kya khusiyan manau? Aur mujhe to yeh samajh nahi aa raha hai ki tum sab itne normal kaise ho. Khaskar ki tu raavi. Shaadi koi mazaak hai kya? Ki aaj bol diya isse karni hai aur hum sab maan gaye.aree abhi Umar hi kya hai uski. Kal tak to papa papa bolkar mujhse chipki rehti thi. Ab ..yeh sab .." shivas voice was breaking towards the end.
" Shreya 23 saal ki hai. Mai jab iss ghar mai shaadi karke aayi thi to 21 saal ki thi. Itni badi ho gayi hai hamari beti ki uski zindagi ke faisle khud le sake " raavi said
" Koi badi nahi huyi hai. Bas Umar badh gayi hai.dil se to bacchi hai na.aur yeh akash kaun hai, kaisa hai.khaandan kaisa hai. Sab pata lagana padega na " shiva said sounding not convinced.
" Shiva. Akash hamare business partner ka beta hai. Pandya malls and enterprises mai shareholders hai woh. Bachpan se humne use bade hote dekha hai. Padha likha hai, khaandan accha hai aur sabse zaroori baat hamari Shreya se bahut pyaar karte hai. Aur uski khushi usme basti hai. Naa karne ki koi wajah hi nahi hai. Infact akash se accha ladka humein nahi milega Shreya ke liye " raavi said.
" Han han. Ab tu bhi hamari beti ko bhagane ki planning kar. Mujhe to us akash mai jhol lagta hai. Usne fasaya meri bacchi ko. Use to mai dekh lunga. " shiva said grumpily.
Raavi put her head on his shoulders and entangled her finger in his.
" Tujhe pata hai na shiva , agar maa baap ki khusi na ho rishte mai to baccho ko kitni takleef hoti hai.kaaki aur maasima ki Dushmani mai humne kitna dukh Saha. Shreya agar sabse zyada iss duniya mai kisise pyaar karti hai to woh tujhse Aur tu do dino se usse baat nahi kar raha hai, bechari kitni pareshaan hai " raavi said
Siva suddenly thought about it. In his anger and hurt he has been avoiding their daughter.he took a deep breath. He has to talk with her. He can't keep up running like this. He gave a soft kiss to raavis hand and nodded.
**************************************************
Shreya was nervously walking the room.did she hurt her dad.thats the last thing she would want to do.shiva knocked and entered the room and Shreya ran to him hugging him tight.
" I am so sorry papa. Aap mujhse naraaz mat ho. Agar aap nahi chahoge na to mai yeh shaadi nahi karungi " she said in one breath.
Shiva patted her head.
" Nahi baccha.mai tujhse naraaz nahi hu " he separated her from the hug and held her face.
" Par aap us din beech mai uthkar chale gaye Jab mai sabko akash ke baare mai bata rahi thi" she complained
" Bas sab kuch itna jaldi ho gaya na.to samajh nahi aya kya bolu. I am sorry. Ab tu mujhe sab kuch bata." he said honestly.
Shreya smiled and held his hand making him sit down on the floor of her room and started telling him everything about akash.how they became friends, how his family was so sweet and he listened patiently.there was a twinkle in her eyes when she talked about Akash. He recognised that. Raavi had the same expressions when she talked about him with someone else.his daughter had found love. He smiled listening to her.
" You know papa. I want ki 20- 25 saal baad na hamare beech aisa hi pyaar rahe jaisa aap aur maa ke beech hai " she said as she concluded keeping her head on shiva's shoulders.
" Aisa hi kyu. Isse bhi zyada pyaar rahe tum dono ke beech " shiva said
" Yeh to thoda mushkil hai " she said as she giggled.
" Yeh tu kyaa dekh rahi thi? " Shiva said as he resumed the pause video on tv.
" Papa, please rehne do na " she said embarassed.
A 1 yr old shreya was trying to walk. But the moment she wobbled shiva immediately took her into his arms.
" Shiva, kya kar raha hai. Woh giregi nahi to chalna kaise seekhegi " dhara said
" Are bhabi. Jab seekhna hoga seekh jayegi na. Itna pressure daalne ki kya zaroorat hai.mere Hote huye kaise girne de sakta hu mai apni jaan ko. " he said as Krish was ready to record her first steps.
" Tu aur sar par chadha Shreya ko " raavi said as she tried to make her eat while she was making faces as shiva held her.
" Seedhe seedhe bol na chipkali ki tujhe jalan ho rahi hai. Aajtak tu akeli naachti thi mere sar par, ab koi aur naach raha hai " he said teasing her.
' dekho na dhara di.kaise baby ke saamne mujhe chipkali bol raha hai. " raavi complained
" maa baap ho gaye ho par bachpana nahi gaya " dhara said going away not wanting to get into their fight.
" Ae somnath ka sasta cameraman.band kar " he said shouting at Krish
Shiva and Shreya laughed seeing the video.tears filled their eyes, both they both tried to control it.
" Maa kitni Sundar lag rahi hai hai na. Aur kaise hum dono ko itne pyaar se dekh rahi thi. Aur aap unki taang kheench rahe the " she said chuckling.
" Tu bhi bilkul apne maa ki parchayi hai. Isliye to itni fikr hai mujhe teri. Wohi masoomiyat aur waisa hi saaf mann." he said putting a hand over her shoulders.she was indeed a replica of raavi.the same eyes.the same smile.
Shreya snuggled into his chest.
" Aap bhul rahe ho mujh mai 50 percent aapka DNA bhi hai. Noone messes with Shreya pandya and gets away with it " she said
" Aur agar kuch galat hua to aap sambhla lena " she said cutely pointing at the video.
Shiva hugged her and whispered
" Hamesha "
Shreya started crying and Shiva couldn't hold back his own tears.
" I will miss you papa " she said while shiva comforted her.
Raavi looked at both of them from the door and couldn't hold back her own tears. She rushed over and joined them in the hug.
Shiva held his two women close to his heart.
They spent the rest of the evening chatting away and looking at the childhood pics and albums of Shreya.
**************************************************
" Tara di, dekho na. Yeh eyeliner uneven hai " Shreya cribbed.
" Thik to hai gudiya " tara said finding no problem.
" Thik nahi. I need everything to be perfect " she pouted.
" Accha.okay.idhar aa. Mai phirse laga deti hu " tara did her make up while raavi and dhara walked in.
Shreya was almost ready and the family was pampering her to no ends.
" Whao Shreya. Maine kaha tha na yeh designer lehenga tumpe bahut accha lagega " rishita squealed in happiness at her choice.
Raavi started crying when looking at her.
" Maa. Aap ro kyu rahe ho? Itni buri lag rahi hu kya? " She asked wiping her tears .
" Bahut bahut sundar lag rahi hai " she out a kala teeka on her baby.
She was finally ready after hours of hardwork by everyone and she couldn't wait to meet her papa.
Shiva walked in and saw her all decked up as a bride.
Shreya raised her eyebrows asking him how is she looking.
" Mujhe laga tha Teri maa iss duniya ki sabse khoobsurat dulhan hai. Aaj tune mujhe galat saabit kar diya " he said holding her hands.
" Bilkul nahi. Chachi aaj bhi somnath ki sabse sundar ladki hai. Tu bandariya lag rahi hai.sab Tera Mann rakhne ke bol rahe hai " vivaan teased her.
" Ae gadhede.aaj bhi apni choti behen ko chedega?" Shreya pouted.
" Aa jaao sab. Yaadon ki baraat hug time." Vivaan jumped on Shreya while everyone followed with laughter echoing through the room.
" Hamare bacche hamari tradition ko aage le rahe hai. Very good very good " rishita said laughing.
" Sab sanskaro ka khel hai " Shreya said dramatically earning a tapli from vivaan.
**************************************************
Shiva dragged raavi by the waist from the hall.
" Shiva kya kar raha hai? Koi dekh lega. Baraat aaanewali hai aur.." Raavi said when shiva took out a chain with a heart shaped pendant.
" Yehh? " Raavi asked surprised.
He was not someone who would give gifts or flowers. He had a different way of showing his love.
" Tujhe yaad hai jab tune mujhe padhayi puri karne ke liye kaha tha aur maine state mai top kiya tha.phir mujhe scholarship mila tha engineering college join karne ke liye? " He said making her wear it while softly playing with her neck.
" Hann " she said remembering those days when shiva would work for hours and then study at night and she would give him company by making tea and snacks and sometimes just reading out the notes to him.
" Maine woh fd karke rakh diya tha. Kabhi khayal hi nahi aaya, aaj achanak bank se call aya. To yeh un paiso se liya maine " he said and faced her.
" Thank you raavi. Meri berang zindagi mai rang bharne ke liye. Iss banzar zameen par baarish ki boond ki tarah aayi tu " he said putting a strand of hair behind her ear.
Raavi hugged him.
" I love you shiva.mai duniya mai sabse zyada Kisise pyaar karti hu to woh tu hai.bholenath ko roz shukriya ada karti hi unhone tujhe meri zindagi mai laaya " she said.
" Mai bhi tujhse bahut pyaar karta hu. Par sabse zyada to tere hisse se karta hu " he said pointing towards their daughter who was clicking pictures with tara and vivaan.
Raavi chuckled.
" Kitni badi ho gayi na.kaise rahenge hum uske bina? " She said leaning on him.
" Pata nahi. Mai kya bol raha hu chipkali, akash ko ghar jamai bana dete hai. Ab hamare ghar mai kis cheez ki kami hai? Mast rahega aur business sambhalega " he said
" Gadheda. Tu to meri maasi ke ghar do din nahi reh sakta bina shakal banaye aur akash ko ghar jamai banana hai " she said
" Woh maami aur mera alag setting hai " he said.
Things were a lot better between shiva and maami. They were cordial with each other but he could never forgive her for what she did with their family and raavi never asked him to. For her it was enough that they stopped their flights.
" Betiyo ko sasuraal jaana padta hai. Yehi samaj ki reet hai. Ab hamari laadli ke liye thodi yeh badlegi" she sighed.
" Mai jaanta hu yeh tere liye bhi bahut mushkil hai raavi. Par mujhe sambhalne ke liye tu kuch bol nahi Rahi hai " he said hugging her from behind.
"Ab mai roungi to mere aansu tu hi pochega " she said putting her hands above his.
" Pati hu Tera. Aur kaun pochega " he smiled as they looked on at their family having the time of their lives. The smile on their daughters face.
" Yeh sahi hai. Shaadi ko 25 saal ho gaye par romance baaki hai.meri wali to dus saal Mai hi mujhse dur bhaagne lagi " Krish said.
" Shaadi ke 25 saal ho gaye par Tera Aaj bhi kabab mai haddi banna nahi gaya. Jaata hai ki..." Shiva said to Krish making him run away laughing as raavi shook hi head.
Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2
