3S: THE VOWS
"Papa, please, Not again" Madhu says in a disinterested tone.
"Madhu, beta, see its the right time for u to get married & start your new life" Malik tried to make understand his stubborn daughter.
"But Papa, how many times I have to tell you that I'm not going to get married EVER!!" She tells her dad angrily but in a gentle tone.
"Madhu, you know your maa's health condition, she survived twice from heart attack but she is worrying she might not survive next time, she wants to see u married before anything happens to her" Malik tells her gently caressing her head.
"Papa, nothing will happen to maa" Madhu's voice quivers.
"I know Beta, we both wish for her healthy life but you should understand her worry too. Why you are denying to get married? Do you...Do you love someone?? if so tell me, beta. I'll get u married to him" Malik says with an encouraging smile.
"Papa!" she admonishes him gently. "You know I don't do this love-shove thing. Its just I don't want any commitments. I want my freedom. I want to be only your daughter always"
"You will be darling. You will be our daughter always, that's not going to change. Its just u'll be having a new family to love u."
"Papa, all I want is u & maa. I want to be with u always. You don't have anyone to take care of u other than me."
"Madhu, who will take care of u after us?? u have a life ahead to lead & u need someone to walk along with u" That's when Padmini enters Madhu's room, with hopeful eyes she silently asks her husband about Madhu's decision for which he silently shakes his head in negation & Padmini's face falls.
"Madhu" Padmini gently calls her daughter & sat beside her on the bed taking her hand in hers.
"Maa, please. Don't start with your sentimental talks & force me into this marriage."
"Madhu, just listen to me. We are not forcing u into any thing. Its a very good marriage proposal. Kundra family has good name & reputation in the society. We just don't want to slip this proposal from our hands"
"But Maa..." she hesitates.
"Madhu, we are not forcing u, u talk to him, if u like him then we will take forward things or we will just drop the idea." Malik tells her with a smile. She nods her head half heartedly not sure with the idea of getting married as she always dreamed for staying single & look after her parents. Padmini smiles at Malik relieved.
"Good. I'll inform Mohan kundra, so that they can come & meet u tomorrow" Malik says excitedly & walked out of her room to make a call while Madhu lies on her mothers lap confused.

"Hi, I'm Rishab" Rk stretches his hand out to Madhu for a shake.
"Hi, Madhubala" Madhu takes his hand with a smile.
"Come" he guides her in to the cafe. Morning, at Malik's mansion Rishab parents had come to meet Madhu & her family & they were so pleased seeing Madhu & liked her in an instant & approved that she will make a best pair to their son. Due to some urgent meeting Rk couldn't accompany his parents to meet the Malik's & he apologized for that to Malik & even asked for his permission to meet Madhu in personal & now they are in a cafe.
"My parents liked you" Rishab tells her with soft smile.
"Same here. Maa, Papa were very particular about not missing this proposal saying u are a rare found, a gem of a person, a perfect husband a girl could ever get..."
"Whoa! Whoa! That's quite an overstatement" Rk chuckles. Madhu bites her lips to stop her blabbering.
"So??" Rk asks. Madhu looks at him puzzled that's when the waiter arrives at their side to take their order. Assuming he was asking what she wants to have she whispers "Latte". With a slight grin Rk orders the waiter "Latte for her & Cappucino for me" & he dismisses him quickly. Then Rk studies her for a while, she was squirming on her seat, fidgeting with her fingers as if nervous & her face was little upset.
"Are you not happy with the proposal?" Rk asks her after taking a sip from his coffee.
"Um...uh...why do u ask the question?" Madhu asks wondering what gives away to him that she is not much interested in this marriage?
"So I'm right. Are u forced into this marriage??"
"Well, I'm not forced, my parents will never do that." she says with pride.
"You don't like me?" he asks.
"No! um... I do like u. what's not there to like? You are good looking, well educated, successful, seems friendly too. It's just I'm worried"
"Worried??" Rk asks confused though partly relieved that she likes him.
"Worried for my freedom, all the commitment & responsibilities, above all my parents. They don't have anyone to take care of them. All they have is me & once I get married & moved out... then they... I..." she struggles to explain her turmoil to him. "I just want to be with them. I love them" Madhu finishes her sentence looking down at her knotted fingers. Rk admires her with a pleasant smile on his face. She is sweet & loving! He thoughts & that's the moment he fell in love with her.
"Madhu" he calls her gently seeking her attention to look at him. Madhu could hear a tenderness in his tone & looked up at him.
"I Vow you, I'll never snatch your freedom away from u, you will be the same Madhubala what now u are, even at the age of hundred"
"I don't want to live that long" she chuckles.
"But I do. I want u by my side even longer. You can say I'm greedy but its true" Rk tells her taking her hand in his & looking her with his compassionate eyes.
"& regarding your worries on commitments & responsibilities, one day or the other u should embrace them, u can not keep on shunning away so why not now? But I promise you will never be burdened with anything you cant handle & always keep this in mind I'm with u to share your responsibilities." Each & every single word of Rk's hold so much promises which Madhu could witness through his sincere eyes.
"And??" Madhu was already melted with his warm words but still she needs answer for her biggest worry. Her parents!
"When you become mine, they will become my parents too & I know to take care of them well so u don't have to worry about them" Oh my! He is indeed a gem of a person! Madhu thoughts.
"You like me??" Madhu asks.
"More than like. If I didn't like u then I won't be giving u all these vows" Rk grins at her making her blush.
"Okay" Madhu shyly whispers.
"Okay what??"
"I' ll marry you" Madhu smiles at him.
"You will?" he asks her in surprise. He expected her to take some time to accept him & the marriage but he was knocked down by her sudden acceptance. She nods.
"You made me happy. Thank you" Rk smiles.
"Okay, now shall we have some general conversation?" Madhu asks.
"Sure. Tell me about yourself"
"hmm... I m a jewelry designer. I run our family jewelry business with Papa's guidance"
"Interesting" Rk says with admiration. Madhu pauses expecting him to tell about himself.
"I'm an architect" Rk interjects.
"Oh, that's nice" Madhu smiles. Then they talked about some random things, their likes & dislikes, favorite foods, movies, etc.
"I guess we should leave, we are getting late." Madhu says.
"Yep. Come I'll drop u" After placing the bill for their coffee Rk takes Madhu's hand & leads her to his car. They remained silent just stealing glances & sharing smiles occasionally & soon they reached Madhu's house.
"Rishab, Welcome Son" Malik invites Rk warmly. Rk smiles & took his future in laws blessings.
"Papa, I'm sorry for not coming to meet u all in the morning, I was held up in some urgent work" Rk apologizes to Malik.
Madhu smiles happily hearing him call her father 'Papa' like she does.
"It's okay, Son." Malik pats him affectionately & gestures him to sit.
"I have asked Madhu to design our engagement ring" Rk informs them. Padmini turns to her daughter in surprise that she had agreed for the marriage just by one talk with Rk when they hoped for high persuasion.
"Madhu, you are happy with your decision right?? you didnt agree for us right??" Malik asks to make sure her daughter agreed on her own accord.
"Yes, I agreed for your happiness but I'm happy with my decision because I like him, Papa" she declares.
"I knew it. I knew you will surely like Rishab" Malik says proudly. Rk smiles.
"Then I'll leave Papa. I'll ask Dad & Mom to talk with you regarding the engagement date" Malik nods.
"Take care of your health Maa" Rk tells Padmini with a smile & she smiles back at him.
"Bye, Madhu"
"Bye, Rishu"

(8 months later)
"Hello darling" Rk says picking up her call on the final ring
"Don't talk to me, Rishu." Madhu hisses at him
"Then why did u call me, Sweetheart?? If u don't want to talk then hang up so that I can sleep & dream on you" Rk tells her in a teasing tone.
"Because I'm hell mad at you" she says pissed.
"Why baby? What, pray, have I don't to earn your ire" Rk asks confused.
"Why u didn't pick my call all day?"
"I was busy with work, Honey"
"Oh please, stop with your buttery "darling, sweetheart, baby, honey" words. Its only making me more mad" she growls at him over the phone.
"I'm sorry but I can't help it, cup cake" Rk tells & Madhu could sense his grin over phone & it makes her grin too.
"You know well to calm me with your words"
"That I do. If u were beside me then I would have calmed you with other ways"
"What ways?"
"Calmed u with my charm, with my smile, with my kiss..."
"Shut up!!" Madhu shouts but she couldn't control the blush creeping on her face. Rk chuckles. He loves to rile her up & calm her too.
"So whatsup?" Madhu asks forgetting her anger over him.
"Ceiling" Rk teases her.
"Gah! You are such an arse" She scolds at him for making fun of her. Rk chuckles.
"Okay, Cool My sweet Jalebi. I just came home from work. Quite a tiring day but finally the work is over. I'm happy with the out come" Rk says to her while he stretches on his bed.
"Oh great. I'm happy that finally your project got over & it came well too for which you have postponed our wedding." she pouts. "I miss u Rishu. I'm tired of toying with our engagement ring & constantly thinking about u & counting the days, minutes & hours for our wedding."
"Just a night baby, tomorrow u'll be mine."
"Not tomorrow, Today! Its way past 12 am." Madhu reminds him.
"Oh yeah. So what are u doing now?" Rk asks.
"Talking to u & admiring my mehendi." Madhu says with a smile as she looked at the name "Rishu" written on her hand. "& You?" she asks back.
"Lying on bed & talking with u while gazing the moon. Whenever I see the moon I feel close to u"
"Awe...Sir is in romantic mood huh? Well, From tonight u should look at me not the moon okay?"
"Avec pleasure I'll look at your pretty face baby but you want me to only look at you or to do lot more?" he asks in a sexy tone which sends shiver to her spine. "Okay, Now let me have my beauty sleep then only I'll look fresh in my wedding. You too sleep, I want my beautiful bride to look even more beautiful than ever"
"Okay, Goodnight, Rishu"
"Goodnight, Angel" Madhu smiles hearing that & hangs up. She then looks at her engagement ring, a heart shape diamond studded platinum ring, simple & elegant designed by herself with Rk's help & she was momentarily whisked back to her engagement day took place two weeks later from their first meet in coffee shop & she smiles remembering Rk's Vows to her, it was the sweetest thing she had ever heard & it was still ringing in her hears
"With this ring, I give u My heart, My soul, My very life, I belong to you & only you. I'll make my life's mission to keep you happy & safe"

(Wedding Evening)
Rk takes the nuptial chain from the priest & ties it around Madhu's beautiful neck & she smiles with happy tears rolling down her cheeks.
"From here to Eternity you will be mine, only MINE!!"
Rk whispers to her & with loving tender hands her cups her face & wipes her tears with his thumbs.
"Yes! Yours! Always!"
Three promising words from her sweet mouth was all he needed to make him the happiest man alive.
Then He took a pinch of vermillion & gently placed it on her partition making her beautiful face all the more perfect.
"Your heart is my home & My arms are your shelter in which I'll hold you, cherish you & safe guard you for the rest of my life"
Rk's each & every word were uttered with so much love & genuineness. Madhu was mesmerized with his words, his caring look & his gentle caress.
"You asked for freedom, which I will give you because I respect you but remember this 'Freedom is such a lonely word' so I'll never let you feel lonely, I'll walk with you, holding your hands, be the journey - hard or easy, I'll never leave you alone, Sweetheart!"
Rk solemnly vowed her.
"If that's what freedom means then I'm willing to be your slave because you are my everything, I can't live without you. My heart beats for u!"
She whispers, her voice chokes with emotion.
"I love you, Madhu"
"I love you, Rishu"
The lovely couple were showered with rose petals & blessed by the gatherings but they were blissfully lost in their own world, lost in each others ocean deep eyes, sharing the vows right from their heart, which they fully intend to carry through out their life.
"Stop crying, Biwi" Rk whispers with a smile.
"I can't Rishu, I'm overwhelmed with happiness so my tear canals are not listening to me" She replies blinking her tears away to look at her man. Rk chuckles & once again wipes her tears.
"You are looking beautiful. I can't take my eyes off of you"
"So you are, Rishu" she smiles & wipes her face with the back of her hand.
"I want to kiss you" Rk murmurs. Hearing that Madhu's eyes went wide & finally she reminds herself that they were not alone but a huge thong of guests were gawking at them.
"No, Rishu. Not now" She panics & turns to the direction where the photographers were capturing all their sweet tender moments which will be their beautiful memory for their life time.
Kiss!! Rk kissed her on her cheek when the photographer clicked the Perfect picture.

"Madhu, Congratulations" Trishna. Madhu's close friend wishes her & hugs her.
"Thanks, Trishu" Madhu smiles.
"So Where is your man?" Trishna asks her seeing only Madhu standing on the Stage.
"He is over there" She points to a distance where Rk was talking with her father. Madhu narrows her eyes to see what was going between them. They seemed like they were in some argument. Madhu wants to get down from the stage & go near them but she was surrounded by her friends wishing & hugging her & she was distracted.
"Madhu?" Padmini calls her daughter.
"Haan, Maa" Madhu responds.
"You are happy, Right?"
"More than happy, Maa." She smiles widely & hugs her mother. "But I'll miss u & papa" She tells in a bare whisper fight hard to keep her tears in bay.
"We are not going anywhere. We are with you only, madhu." Padmini placates her. She nods slightly still hugging her mother. Soon Malik joins them on the stage with Rishab.
"Madhu, you have always made us happy & proud & I hope you will continue the same" he kisses madhu's forehead & she hugs him.
"Take care of my little girl, Rishab"
"I fully intend to, Papa" Rk promises.
"You don't worry, Padminiji. Madhu is no less than a daughter to me. She will be fine" Radha reassures. Mohan kundra too gave the same assurance to Malik. Above all their words, Malik & padmini trust Rishab, they have been closely watching him for the past 8 months, he not only cared for Madhu but also for them, he fulfilled the void of a son in their life. They even knew that he had captured a place in Madhu's heart which no one can ever replace.
Soon after a teary Bidaai, the newly wed couple were taken to kundra mansion where few rituals were conducted before letting the love birds on their own.
- - -
Rk enters the bedroom to find Madhu sitting on the bed hugging her knees with her arms & head head bowed down & covered with a veil. Rk looks the door & strides towards the bed & sat at the edge of the bed & taking her fidgeting nervous hand in his, he brushed her knuckles with his lips. She shyly looks up through the transparent red color veil & blushed.
"You are the world's most beautiful bride" he says as he lifts the veil revealing her glowing face.
"Come with me" he takes her hand & waited for her to follow which she does though with a confused frown. Then he leads her towards the balcony adjacent to the bed room.
"You like it?" Rk asks hugging her from the back resting his chin on her shoulder.
"Like what?" she asks confused. She couldn't see any sort of special decoration but only a newly constructed house which was more or less similar to kundra mansion.
"The house" he whispers & nibbles her ears.
"Um...It's beautiful. Why?" she asks.
"It's my wedding gift for u" he tells her.
"What?" she shrieks & turns to face him.
"I was building my dream house for my lovely Biwi. I m so glad I could complete it before our wedding & present it to you on our wedding night." he pecks on her lips.
"Rishu... No... I can't... this is too much for a wedding gift..."
"You didn't like my gift?"
"Of course I love it. But still this is over the top... u could have given me something less expensive"
"You are my priceless possession & for u I m ready to give my life so its just nothing. Besides this is what I do & know so I couldn't think of any other gift" he tell her caressing her cheek.
"Rishu" she sobs & hugs him. "So you were busy in this work & u postponed our wedding too"
"Yep!"
"Then take me to the house, I want to see it" she demands.
"I'll give u a tour but not now"
"Why?" She asks confused & disappointed. This is her first gift from her husband & she was not able to see it well.
"Because I don't want to disturb Papa & Maa" he murmurs still holding her in his arms & nuzzling her hair.
"What?" she pushes him a little to look at his face. "They are here? You showed them the house?"
"Yeah. It's actually my gift for u but the legal documents are in your father's name so technically its their house."
"So technically its my Papa's gift not mine" she teases him
"Yep. Its more like a barter system. He gave me you & in return I gave him the house" he teases her back & grins.
"So I worth only the house" she asks with her hands on her hips.
"No. You worth the happiness you get when u see your parents staying with u, with us" he says tugging a loose strand of hair behind her ears. "We can even stay with them whenever u like" he adds.
"So this is what u were arguing with my papa in the wedding hall??"
"Yep... He is one stubborn man like u. It took me forever to convince him" he sighs. She giggles.
"Thank you, Rishu. You have done so much for me & I don't know what I'll give u in return." she says with tears.
"Give yourself to me"
"I'm yours" she leans up & kisses him on his lips, a soft kiss. But before she could pull away, he cradles her head with one hand & grips her by her waist close to his chest with other & deepens the kiss, sweeping his tongue in to her luscious lips. Without breaking their kiss they stumble back to the room & falls back on the bed taking madhu on top of him.
"Oh my!" Madhu breathes. "I could have died due to short of breathe if I hadn't pull away on time" she scolds gently & examines her swollen lip. "You bit me. See it's bleeding" she complains to him pulling her lower lip between her thumb & index finger. Rk laughs.
"Stop laughing" she hits him on his arms.
"Sorry" he presses her lips to stop laughing. Oh Gosh! What a tempting morsel she is? She is so innocent... beautiful... & sexy! but I should really go slow or else I'll scare her! My poor biwi!
"I liked the kiss" She declares after studying her breathe.
"You did?" he asks surprised. She nods shyly.
"So tell me, where u wanna go? Switzerland? France? London?" he asks her.
"I just wanna be with u, Rishu"
"You think I'll let my biwi go on her own? Of course I'll come with u. I'm planning for a trip where I would like to whisk my biwi & keep her for myself. The place is your choice, so tell me where we can go for honeymoon?"
"Rishu..." she hesitates.
"What's it, love?"
"Would you mind if we go for a short trip, that too somewhere in India?"
"Well, No. but tell me why u don't want to go abroad?"
"Um... Rishu, you know with all the wedding preparation Maa has exerted a lot & now her health condition is not so well, even last week she had mild chest pain, I'm really worried for her & in this situation I don't want to go too far & too long so..."
"Okay darling. We will go for a short trip somewhere nearer as u wish. And please don't worry about Maa, I have talked to her doctor two days back & she assured me that Maa is fine." he says & plants a soft kiss on her forehead.
"So where in India?"
"Hmm... Haridwar, Rishikesh, Kasi..."
"Stop it, Biwi."
"Why?" she asks innocently.
"Those places we will go for our 60th or 80th marriage anniversary not now" he says pissed.
"Then some hill station" she suggests.
"Hill station? Why? You have diabolic plan of pushing me from a cliff & eloping with your secret lover huh?" he asks teasingly & bites her earlobe. "Ah" she yelps.
"Secret lover?" she giggles.
"You have?" Rk asks curiously.
"No!" she laughs. "You were, You are & You will be my only boyfriend, lover, husband, You name it" she vows. He sighs in relief & kisses her tenderly on her lips.
"You had any girlfriend or lover?" she backs at him.
"Yep"
"Wife??"
"Don't be silly. I had dated many girls & I thought I loved them but I didn't, may be thats the reason why nothing worked out. Only u capture my heart. I fell in love with you the moment u said about your worries for your parents, the day we met in the cafe for the first time & at that moment I have decided to make you my wife. Trust me, I won't give your wifely status to anyone." he pecks on her lips. She smiles shyly.
"You are not a virgin?" Madhu asks.
"No. I'm not but I do regret for not waiting for you."
"Why are you so brutally honest?" Madhu asks.
"I never lie & I m not going to start lying with you" he tells her. She remains silent.
"Look at me, Biwi" he turns her face holding her chin.
"Sorry, I didnt mean to hurt you, but you should have known that you are expecting for too much" he says. She arch her eye brow puzzled.
"You expecting your twenty seven yrs old husband to be virgin when he had sex at the age of seventeen" he bursts out laughing seeing her loud gasp. Later she too joined him in laughing.
"You are so innocent, biwi" he twitches her nose cutely.
"You didn't ask me whether I'm virgin or not?" she asks after a while waiting for him to ask the question.
"I know you are a virgin" he dismisses her question just like that & starts nuzzling her throat.
"How?" she wonders how he knows that.
"I found that from your inexperienced sweet kiss, your shock when I said I'm not a virgin & also you said you didnt have any boyfriend so I was sure that you are an untouched pure soul" he says proudly.
"Hmm... Okay, from now on you won't touch any other girl" she orders.
"I won't" he promises.
"If you do..." she pauses. He raises his head from the crook of her neck & waited for her to finish her sentence. "Then I'll fire your ass" she says seriously only to make him laugh out loud.
"Oh my Jungli billi, I love you" he kisses her soundly.
"Oh my Right kamina, I love you" she says & hugs him.
"You are exhausted. I guess we should sleep so you better go change & come" he suggest her. She nods & walks to the changing room. After changing their cloths, they lied on the bed on their back looking at the ceiling.
"You want something, Rishu" Madhu asks hesitantly.
"Just YOU" he whispers. Without any preamble she rolls over to his side & takes his lips in hers & soon they started making out passionately.
"I want to see Kashmir" she breathes.
"I'll take you, darling. Tomorrow!" he kisses her forehead & they went to sleep in each others arms.
