PART 1
It has been 15 minutes since I am waiting for swara in the park. I took out mobile from my pocket in order to make a call. As I looked at the gate she was there in a light green suit,with her hair untied she looked beautiful but still not my type. "Hello" I smiled but she did not return my smile. "Hello" she said while sitting on a bench. We both sat on the bench for odd 10 minutes, she didn't uttered a word. Neither she looked at me and then I thought of breaking the awkward silence.
"I am sorry"
"For..?"
"This whole marriage thing" I thought she would say something but when she didn't I continued "the way parents behave at times is very embarrassing. My mother approached you for marriage in the most nonsensical way possible" l chuckled "so I am asking sorry on her behalf. You have no idea the whole emotional drama thing she is doing with me"
I looked at her again for response but she didn't even nodded. "are you listening?" I enquired.
"What do you want me to do" she said in a low voice, still not looking at me.
"I want you to say NO for this marriage, because I can't do that apparently" I said what I came here for.
Her eyes turned towards me, her expressions were difficult to read "are you ok?" I said. She nodded and moved her face in the opposite direction. "My mother will get hurt real bad if I'll say NO to this marriage so I am asking you to do me this favour. After demise of my father last year I am the only one she have. I hope you will understand " I really hoped she does. Fingers crossed I waited for her response. After sometime she turned her face towards me, to my disbelief she was smiling-" I do understand. I will say NO for this marriage" she stood up "wait,let's have coffee" I have no idea why I said that but I could feel I have hurt her, and she was sad though she was smiling. "No thanks I would rather go" "OK then, bye" "bye" she ran away as if it was difficult for her to stay here any longer. And I sat there on the bench for a while. She looked like a good girl but you need to be more than good to be sanskar's wife.
"Aa gyi ghar beta" my mother was standing at the door when I reached home "late ho gya aaj thoda tumhe, swara mai tumse baat kar ri hu" and I couldn't hold myself anymore. I started crying like never before. "Kya ho gya" she said cupping my face in her hands. I hugged her and she got busy consoling me. "Mai abhi pani layi" she brought a glass of water for me. "Kya hua h swara bata mujhe, kuch mat chupana" "Sanskar se shadi nahi krni mujhe" I said. My mother looked at me for a whole one minute before she could utter something," kal tumhe dekh kar mujhe lga tumhe wo kafi pasand hai" her voice was very low. She lifted my face from my chin and said "Lekin isme rone ki kya baat has swara, tum jo kahogi wo hi hoga,ok" she smiled. "Hmmm.."
later at dinner she informed me that the marriage was officially cancelled now. You can't force anyone to love you. I have cried enough it's time to move on now. It will pain, maybe forever but I have to be strong
AFTER A WEEK
It was at my friends wedding where we met again. It was the same friend at whose engagement party I had met Mrs. Sujata maheshwari. And there she was again, standing with her son. Who looked extremely handsome. I don't care about them I was telling myself continuously. And then I saw both of them walking towards me. I lowered my head and started pretending as if I have not seen them "Hello beta" I knew whose voice that was. " Hello aunty, namaste" I said looking at her. She sat in the chair near me while sanskar kept standing. Meanwhile my mother came searching for me. She looked quiet shocked. I gave my chair to my mother and both the women greeted each other formally. They soon started conversing, after some worldly conversations sujata aunty just said" swara beta?" "Jii" "tumne iss rishte ko mana kyu kia?" this is the question she wanted to ask so long. My mother too was looking at me because she also had no idea about what went wrong. She was also waiting for my answer. I looked at sanskar who was looking at me. What am I supposed to say now?
