They had a very peaceful sleep thanks to the unpolluted air and pure environment of the village and most importantly because they slept in each others arms. Surely there's no comfortable place in the world other than one's partner's arms.
Manyata woke up to the sounds of chirping birds and loud crowing of the rooster. She smiled as she looked around. It must have been 6AM in the morning. Uday was still asleep. Aww..he looks so cute even while sleeping, thought she. Suddenly she got a wicked idea in her mind to wake him up.
The ground was full of grass and Manyata picked up a blade of grass and tickled Uday in the ear with it. He was really irritated and woke up with a start.
Seeing the confused expression on his face, Manyata started to laugh. Uday joined her in laughter and it turned into laugh fest of sorts.
'what a nice couple, how happy they are even after facing so many difficulties' thought Pappu's mother watching them from the distance.In the night, before going to sleep, Manyata had told her all about who they were and what kind of situation they were going through.
After the frugal breakfast of roti and sabzi Manveer set out home. Manyata kissed Pappu's forehead and blessed him. The farmer's family bid them a tearful adieu.
They were going in a hired car towards Mumbai and Manyata looked out of the window out of boredom and spotted a carnival by the side of the road.
"zara gaadi rokiye na, mujhe mela dekhna hai" she said.
As the driver stopped manveer got down and when they reached near someone told them that, the day was very auspicious and 'samoohik vivah'(communal marriage) was going on.
After one hour Manveer were a married couple all over again. It didn't matter that the place they got married was a temple rather than a palace or there weren't fake smiles and extravagant gifts at their wedding. They were meant to be together and no one, not even fate could separate them when they had each other.
They fed each other the Prasad of the deity in the name of wedding feast and started again. Manyata looked at her sindoor adorned forehead in the side mirror of the hired car and felt herself overcoming with emotion.
**************************************************************
While Manveer remained ensconced in their own happy bubble, their family was going crazy worrying about them. The whole wedding was obviously ruined and all guests had left talking in hushed tones. No one could sleep a wink and each person at the house had their own problem with this joke of a marriage.
Brijraj and Mrinalini devi were thinking about what the media would do to their already ruined reputation. Their shame was going to be paraded in public for sure. J had commited a blashphemy and she was going to pay for it.
Out of the ever watching glare of family, J managed to meet Akash in the dead of the night and she was more than murderously angry. "tumne mere saath dhokha kiya? Mera Veer kahan hai? Uska kidnap kyon karvaya tumne? Tumhare iss stupid plan ke wajah se aaj meri shaadi hote hote rehgayi!" J yelled.
"Relax wify, relax'agar kisine sun liya toh'." Akash said.
"ek baat jaan lo Akash, main tumhari koi wife nahi lagti samjhe'ab batao kahan hai Veer?" she asked him gritting her teeth.
They had a heated argument and almost came to blows. Had it not been for J's phone which rung at the right or rather wrong moment; there would've been a murder at the raj mahal that night.
"Kya?? Par tum logone bhaagne kaise diya use? Aur yeh baat tum log mujhe ab bata rahe ho? Mujhe kuch nahi sun na'tum log use kahin se bhi dhoondkar lao" J threw her phone in disgust. Her temper was enough to burn the house down.
"koun bhag gaya? Kise dhoondne ki baat kar rahi thi?" Akash asked.
"Manyata kidnappers ke haath se nikal gayi, agar woh yahan pohonch gayi toh pata hai kya hoga?
"kuch nahi hoga agar hum milkar kaam kare toh" Akash said.
They joined hands and devised a new plan which was not going to fail.
