"You Are Free To Make Whatever Choice You Want, But You Are Not Free From The Consequences Of The Choice"
(Madhu's POV)
Now, Rishu & I are in car heading back home. He seems happy & relaxed as he softly hums to the song playing in the music system fixed in the car as he drives the car looking straight at the road ahead & I steal the opportunity to admire my man. "As if you are seeing him for the time, Madhu?" I chide myself. But yeah, I am seeing him in the new light, he is pretty new to me, because now he is my husband, the love of my life & of course my best ever friend too so I have the right to eye 'F' him. I love his attractive eyes which pulls me hard towards him like a magnetic force. He has a Greek nose so sharp & straight & I have read somewhere that one who have straight nose are very clever, helpful & kind in nature & successful in life too. Its so true in Rishu's case. Then comes his sculpted lips. Oh my! I just love what he does to me with those lips. I love kissing him & kissed by him. But his dimples on either side of his cheeks will be my favorite. I love to dip my tongue in his dimples.
"What?" he asks suddenly turning to my side. I grin goofily for being caught staring at him.
"Nothing. Just looking at you" I tell with a casual shrug.
"Pretty face huh?" he winks & now he is grinning goofily at me. We are one insane couple irrevocably in love with each other.
"Indeed" I tell giggling. He smiles & takes my hand in his from my lap to his mouth to kiss my knuckles.
"You seem so relaxed?" I ask.
"Well, yeah. I have you safe beside me so I am relaxed."
"Are you not nervous?"
"Why should I be?" he asks with a frown.
"About telling our marriage to our parents?" I ask. I am so nervous & scared too.
"Are you?" he asks instead of answering me.
"Yes"
"Well, you should have thought about it last night. We have done with the action & now lets face the consequences"
"Hmm... but they are gonna be mad at us"
"Of course they will be. But they are our parents & they love us & they will understand us eventually." he tells. I nod. " But I want you to be cool & composed. Don't argue with them, okay?" he warns me gently.
"Okay, I will keep my mouth mum & you convince them" he is my sweet boy who tackles every issue so easily with his sweet tendency. I suspect even my parents love Rishu a bit more than they do me but definitely I am not complaining because I am being loved more by my Rishu.
"Madhu, we are here. Our parents will come this evening only so if you want you can stay with me or you can stay at your house." he says holding my house key.
"Hmm... I will go freshen up & come to your house by lunch time." I grab the key from his hold.
"Okay, baby"
"Rishu, you didn't sleep so go take rest. I will come & make lunch for us" If I stay with him under one roof now then I don't think he will get some sleep.
"Sure & you too sleep for some time" he says smiling. I nod then I remind him "But I can make only fried rice" I suck in cooking.
"Well, that's far better than your two minutes noodles" he teases me.
"Husband, Maggi noodles is gonna be back soon so you can't escape from eating that every night" I ruffle his hair with a wicked grin playing on my face while he looks horrified & soon I jump out of the car & walk to my house.

I sneak into Rishu's bedroom & tiptoes towards his bed. Aww... my poor darling is still sleeping. I took a nap, got freshen up, came to his house & prepared fried rice & set the table for us but still he is asleep. No problem. I will also give him company too.
I gently get on bed, pull the covers over my head & scoot close to him but I was rudely pushed by him & I roll on the bed, fell down & hit my almost healed hand hard on the floor & it starts aching again.
"Ahhh" I scream bloody loud in pain.
"Hey, What happened?" I hear Rishu's voice from the back & a second later he kneels down beside me & tries to take my hand but I push him rudely with my other hand. How dare he push me & now he acts as if concerned.
"Madhu, show me your hand? Did you hurt your hand again? But how?"
"How? You idiot! You only pushed me down from the bed when I lied down next to you" I accuse him.
"You pushed her?" he asks looking behind me. I am here then with whom he is talking? To the wall?
"And you lied down next to him? Don't you have eyes?" he asks me angrily.
"What the hell is going on? I should be the one shouting at you. Not you on me. You pushed me rudely & see I got my hand hurt & it's paining." I show him my hand & wail. Well it's not as pain as I am showing on my face. I am just over acting but he needs to know what he did was inexcusable. His eyes soften as he scans my hand but then he rudely turns my face to look at my back.
"SULTAN!!" I shout. He is sitting on the edge of the bed clutching the duvet so close to his chest, looking scared as if I had tried to rape him. Bloody bas***d!!
"You pushed me?" I ask him angrily as I stood on my heels. "How dare you? & by the way what the hell are you doing on Rishu's bed? Get down. Now!!" I shout & at the same time jump on the bed ready to punch hard on his face for pushing me but Rishu stops me on time. Rishu looks freshly showered so he must be in washroom & this idiot was sleeping on Rishu's bed covering his shit face.
"Hey, watch your hand" he reminds me.
"Then you hit him Rishu...hit him" I insist but he hesitates and asks "Don't you have sense man? Why the hell you pushed her & hurt her?"
"RK, don't listen to this little devil... nothing happened to her... She is one manipulating monster... " And there lands a hard punch on his face. I don't know why Rishu hit him... for pushing me down or calling me devil... monster... but I am just happy he got what he well deserved.
"Don't you dare call my wife names, got it?" Rishu warns.
"What the f**k!!" Sultan shouts making me jump back.
"Rishu, 100 rupees?" I ask Rishu for the F word Sultan used.
"Why the f**k I should pay you when this f**ker used the 'f**k' word?"
"But now you used the F word. Thrice!!" I state him innocently showing my index, middle & ring finger.
"You are a manipulating monster & I am not going to pay a single penny, you little devil" Rishu shouts at me.
"See, I rightly named her, even you used them now" Sultan pipes. Rishu growls at him.
"He is my husband & he has the right to call me whatever he pleases but you don't, you got that, idiot?" I bark at him with my hands on my hips.
"Just for saying this I will pay you the money, baby" Rishu pecks on my cheek. I have my ways to get the money but yeah, I meant what I said. Only Rishu has every right on me & no one else.
"You really married her, Rk?" Sultan asks with ill concealed disgust.
"Yes" Rishu says softly.
"But why?" why he is showing so much emotions? As if Rishu is HIS boyfriend & he cheated on HIM by marrying me?
"How could you do this to me?" he sobs.
"Hey, stop your girly crying act... you are not his girlfriend who got ditched by him"
"I am talking to my friend so you just shut your mouth, you boneless chicken"
"What did you say, you mean mouthed nasty piece of shit?" I scream at him.
"Will you both stop your fighting & shut your mouths?" Rishu shouts pulling his hair.
Both Sultan & I got scared & I crawl towards Sultan & hide our face with the duvet.
"Your husband is one angry asshole" Sultan whispers to me.
"You don't say that, pig" I retort, pissed.
Then Rishu yanks the duvet down & glares us gritting his teeth. He twitches his thumb & index finger & shakes his index finger indicating us to part away & he sits in between us & leans his back on the wall. Sultan & I lean on Rishu & rest our heads on his shoulder on either sides. Rishu pushes Sultans head away & I smirk but then he pushes mine too making sultan smirk in satisfaction. What's wrong with this moron? Why he is always pissing me off? I put my 'Mission Murder Moron Sultan' plan in halt when I met with that accident but now I guess I should start working on that plan again.
"Why you are friend with him, Rishu?" I ask softly.
"Why you married her, Rishu?" Sultan asks matching my tone.
"I swear I will kill you both if you dare to utter a word" Rishu threatens though I know it was an empty threat. Rishu will never kill me. Hahaha... I laugh mentally at that thought.
Then my tummy starts growling. I am hungry so I gently sneak out of the bed but Rishu pulls my hand & stops me.
"Where are you going?" he asks. I remain silent.
"Where else? To gobble some food, right, hungry hippo?" Sultan asks me, smirking.
I take the bed side lamp & hand it to Rishu. He looks at me confused.
"You swore you would kill us if we dare to utter a word & he did first so kill him. Knock this lamp on his head & finish him off" I say evilly.
"She is scary" Sultan whispers to Rishu & finally Rishu chuckles.
I scoot close to him & kiss him hard on his cheek.
"Eewww..." why Rishu is making a disgusting sound? I pull myself away from him to see Sultan kissing his other cheek.
"Eewww..." I make a puking face.
"You are a Gay!!" I declare loud & clear to Sultan & run down to have my lunch as I can't stand any more of his nonsenses.

(Rk's POV)
"She is crazy, right?" Sultan laughs.
"She is" I agree with a chuckle.
"But why you often irritate her, Sultan?"
"For fun." he shrugs.
"Make your death wish, Sultan. She will surely kill you in the near future" I warn him.
"She is a pussy cat" he smirks arrogantly. Even he is so childish like Madhu. But that's what I like about both of them.
"So?" he asks after few minutes of silence.
"What so?" I ask frowning.
"Did that girl force you to marry her?"
"Not really" she persisted me to make love to her. But I cant say that to Sultan.
"Hmm... so when you both got married & where?"
"Well, we got married yesterday night in our apartment" I tell him.
"But why suddenly?"
"I don't know how to explain sultan. I know it's all sudden but we felt that was the right time to... start over & ..."
"So everything over?" he asks grinning.
"What to you mean?" I feign innocence.
"Come on, don't bluff" he dashes his shoulder with mine.
"Stop it, man" I am not telling him about my cozy night with Madhu. That's my personal pleasurable life.
"Did your parents know?" he asks. I am glad he dropped that topic & moved to next. "No. they are in Pune attending a wedding. Will come home this evening, then only Madhu & I will drop the bomb"
"Hmm... They missed their children's wedding while attending others." He laughs. "Anyways, congrats. Keep my little Sis happy" he hugs me slapping my back.
"Will do" I smile at him. How much ever he annoys Madhu, he truly loves & cares for her & even Madhu knows that.

"You both really got married?" Malik uncle asks incredulously. None of them can believe we really got married. That's because of the way madhu blurted out the news. "Hello everybody! Rishu & I got married last night. Bless us" they all thought it was her prank. Then I have to tell them what she said was true.
"Dad, you have asked the same question four times already" Madhu says losing her patience. I hold her hand & gently squeeze it to make her calm. Both our parents have just arrived from Pune & not even giving them a moment to relax Madhu foolishly blurted out the news & they all are seated on the sofa in the state of shock, absolutely not expecting this move from us.
"What is this, Rishab? We didn't expect this from you" My dad, Mohan shakes his head in utter disappointment. Why they are all reacting this way? We didn't do any crime or something unforgivable.
"It's not like we are against your love so you felt the need to get married without informing us? We only wanted you to be happy so we got you engaged the day you both got back together & soon we thought of fixing your wedding... in fact it was you who postponed the wedding for six months but now?" he has a point. I only asked them to postpone our wedding. I wanted Madhu to finish her exams, her graduation & give her a grand wedding... but I did the exact opposite to what I had said.
"Dad, I am sorry."
"You both didn't feel it's necessary for your parents to attend your wedding & bless you?" Padmini aunty asks. She looks like she will burst in tears any moment.
"Aunty, I am sorry" I tell her sincerely. "We didn't mean to hurt your feelings. We just thought that was the right time to rectify the mess we created. We were behaving like an immature adolescents all the while not taking our lives seriously but only now we have started to act our age, I guess" I say looking no one in particular.
"This is also an immature act, Rishab" my dad snarls, angrily. He is really pissed at us... no only on me. Madhu is his darling baby girl. His best friend's daughter is above his own son. He will never scold her or blame her. So I should suck up all the blames.
"Uncle, there is no need to take that tone on Rishu." Madhu jumps in to defend me.
"Madhu..." I shake my head indicating not to argue or fight with them. They are our parents & to be respected.
"Then what, Rishu? We didn't do any crime, we love each other madly & in the heights of madness we decided to get married & start our life... but they are making this simple thing a huge fuss" though she is right she needs to cut her snarky attitude & be little more polite when she talks with elders.
"Just shut up, Madhu" I whisper. She is blowing up the situation.
She opens her mouth to say something to me but refrains herself from commenting & sits next to me with her head held down.
"Marriage is not a child play. So many rituals are associated with it but you didn't do any of that" Malik uncle states.
"Dad, last time when you got us married we did all the rituals but still we got divorced..." why don't she f**king shut her mouth?
"Madhu, this is not the way to talk to your father" I warn her softly. She is stepping out of her limit. She might be right at the place where she stands but I don't want her to argue with our parents & hurt them more than already they are.
"Rishu, then they should understand us & just feel happy for us" she f**king argues. Why don't she plaster her mouth with a tape for a while? I am so tempted to do that.
"Baby, please" I should not lose my temper.
"I'm sorry" she whispers back & looks down at her knotted fingers. I am just glad finally she shut her mouth.
"I never thought you will be so irresponsible..." My dad continues to rant on me & I bow my head & take all his scoldings, holding Madhu's hand tightly to stop her from bursting out again & finally having enough my mom intervenes "Enough, Mohan. They are just kids. Kids do mistakes & we elders should know to forgive them" I shoot a grateful look to my mom & she smiles at me. "Sorry, Mom" I mouth at her. She nods.
"Radha, I agree Madhu is an innocent baby but Rishab? he is grown enough to take right decisions" So it's not only me who still thinks Madhu is a baby.
"Madhu is not a baby. I know she is behind all this drama" Padmini aunty says matter of fact.
"Mom" she whines.
"Mom, we didn't plan anything... it just happened & we are really happy with our decision. We don't regret what we did but we just feel sorry for doing it without letting you all know & not in your presence" I calmly tell as she is the only person here to understand & support us.
"You don't have to explain me, Rishu. I can understand" she is so sweet.
"Thanks mom" I smile at her & she smiles back.
"Just get married again for our happiness" she says. I expected this from her. She will never miss seeing her son's marriage.
"Okay" Madhu jumps in excitedly. I nod agreeing to her wish. I just want to satisfy our parents wish too.
"Then we will keep this so called marriage of yours in wrap. I don't want the society to talk nonsense" Dad agrees to mom's decision but with a condition.
"Dad, we acknowledge & value our marriage so don't mock it & I don't care what this fu... world talks." I never loss my manners when I talk with elders so I controlled my tongue from spilling out the word 'f**k'. Madhu seems disappointed for not getting 100 rupees. She never fails to amuse me. Even when we were in the heights of passion or in the middle of an argument, she very keenly ask me the penance.
"We don't have any objection in getting married again but it's just to please you all as we do respect your feelings & want to be blessed by you." I tell them sincerely.
Then my dad & Malik uncle starts discussing about the sudden change in the event. May be discussing on when to fix our official wedding. Madhu is getting scoldings from her mother.
"You are a fool, Rishu..." My mom whispers sitting next to me. I look at her confused "you could have just hid your marriage from us & pretended to be normal"
"Mom but..."
"If you had done that then you wouldn't have got unnecessary lash from your dad" she chides me. "In spite of saying all that I am really glad u both honestly told everything when u had the chance to hide it from us." My mom is so wonderful. She never holds grudge or hatred on anyone. She rarely lose her temper & get angry. I guess I am taken after her.
"Dad is really mad at me, mom" I tell worried.
"I don't know why your dad is taking too much footage in this episode. When it comes to ranting u then he will be the first person but you don't worry my poor baby... I m here for you & I will make him understand things." I am seeing my dad this mad at me after so many year. Lastly we had a huge row when I refused to go to Singapore to take over the company there as soon as I completed my college education not even letting me to enjoy my youth life but at the end I agreed to his wish.
"I love u, mom" I smile at her & she strokes my cheek with her fingers lovingly with a happy smile on her face.
"Coming Monday Madhu is starting her final exams..." Malik uncle starts.
"Then we will have the marriage this Sunday" Madhu cuts him off. God! She is messing things!
"Show some shame, Madhu" Padmini aunty chides. My mom giggles. I press my lips from laughing.
"After she finishes with her exams, we will have the official marriage" my dad says dryly.
"No!" Both father & daughter shouts at the same time.
"Yes, dad, tell uncle to keep the wedding soon" she is so desperate. Madhu is never known a patient girl.
"No! I was coming to say we will have the marriage once she gets her final exam results. If she keeps any arrears, then the marriage will get postponed till she clears all the papers."
"This is cruel" Madhu says in frustration.
"Hey! Cool. I know you are a bright student so you will pass with flying colors so don't worry..."
"No! It's not about passing my exams. But the wait? I don't think I can stay away from you" she argues in a mere whisper. Stay away? She is stay right next to my house? We can easily jump from one house to other through our balcony or terrace. We still can have naughty time.
"Why you are doing this?" she asks her dad.
"If you argue more then only after your graduation we will get you both officially married" Just f**king agree with them Madhu! If we didn't then who knows they might even postpone further & make us wait longer.
"Okay! We will get married whenever you want but I am moving with Rishu" this idea of hers is so appealing to me.
"No!" there comes another 'No'. I sigh tiredly.
"Madhu, you are staying with us. We know to give your hand to Rishab on the right time, till then be patient" Malik uncle says.
"Are you all fitted with any anti-merge-radar?? why you all want to split Rishu & me?" she asks pissed, placing her hands over her hips. I hear my parents chuckle.
Both Malik uncle & Padmini aunty closed their eyes in embarrassment. Poor parents!
"Madhu... Sit" I pull her down to the sofa.
"This is not fair, Rishu. They are deliberately doing this to get back to us for what we did." she murmurs. Does she mean to say our parents are punishing us for what we did?? No! I won't agree with her. They will never do that. They are just going as per their initial plan. A grand wedding plan!
"Hush!" I silence her. "We will do as they say & that's final" I tell her sternly. I don't want anymore arguments. She bites her lips & stares at me for a moment then says "OKAY!!!" & marches to her house. She has a hot temper! And I f**king love her temper!
