Chapter 4:
As they lay covered in the blanket on the feather bed of their spacious and luxurious bedroom...Ram smiled seeing his beautiful wife...fast asleep in his arms...
All he could do was adore her even more...
R: kitna vichaar karti ho tum doosro ke vishay mein...
He remembered the morning incident with her struggling in her heavy attire...surely heavier than herself!
Without disturbing her sleep...he turned a bit so that she lay on the bed still caged in his arms...
He gazed at her lovingly...caressing his favourite part...her long silken tresses that were ever so soft...
He had realised that he felt for her in a way he didn't feel for anyone else ever...
R: ( caressing her cheek softly) kya hai aisa aapmein jo sadaiv mujhe aapki orr le aata hai?
As if listening to him Sita smiled in her sleep and hugged him closer...making him slip a hand behind her back...
Morning. ...
Sita was the first one today...she tried to get up but found herself firmly locked in her husband's arms...
She smiled at his serene face...that was graced wuth an exceptionally beautiful smile...
S: swaami?
She whispered slowly. ...trying to wake him up for the morning prayers...but Ram frowned a bit due to the sunlight...
Somehow freeing her from his embrace she quickly drew the curtains and covered him with a blanket and hesitantly bent closer to his face...blushing a perfect red and kissed his cheek and left the room...shyly...
Ram opened his eyes as soon as she left and gave a naughty smile...
***********
Sh: bhaabhi! meri kheer???
Shatrughna pouted...
S: avashya apne priya devar ko kaise bhool sakti hoon...ye rahi!
She said handing him a bowl. ...making his eyes shine...
L: ( pout) haww bhaabhi! ab ye aapka priya devar bangaya? main nahi?
Lakshman made a sad face...
Sita threw a helpless look at Kaushalya who just laughed...
K: achcha Sita ab tum apne sabse priya vyakti ko bhojan paroso...
Sita frowned confusedly but Urmila got the hint...
Ur: didi de hi dijiye...apne sabse priya vyakti ko...arthaat mere pyaare jijashree ko...
Sita's eyes widened while Ram choked on his poori...
S: ( worried) swaani? aap therk hai?...ye lijiye...
She said making him drink with with her hands...and making him hold her hand to steady the glass according to him...
The others cleared their throats breaking their reverie...
Ma: ha jijashree aap thek toh haina?...anyatha didi toh mujhe maar hi dengi...kyunki poori toh maine banayi thi na...
She pouted...earning a * are you serious* look from Sita and a smirk from Ram...
R: avashhya Mandvi...( looking at Sita) vo toh mujhe dikh hi raha hai...main theek hoon...tum chintit mat ho...
Mandvi smiled at him...and he returned it...
K: putro...ab jab tumhare vivaah ek saath hi hogaye hai...toh Raghuvansh ki pratha anusaar tum aatho kk hamare kul devta...Surya dev ke mandir mein jaakar unka aashirwaad praapt karna hoga...
R: aap aadesh kare mata...humr prasthaan kab karna hai??
K: kal pratah putra...tumhare jaane ki samast vyavastha hogayi hai...
All: jaisi aapki aagya...
*******
Sh: ardey waah!! maine suna hai iss mandir ke aas paas atyant sundar bhoomi hai...
L: lo hogaya! Shatrughna ji jaha tak MUJHE gyaat hai hum darshan ke liye ja rahe hai...naki...ghoomne ki mansha se...
Sh: Sita bhaabhi!! ye mujhe sadaiv chidhata rehta hai!
L: arrey waah! pehle Ram bhaiyya! Ram bhaiyya chillata tha! aur ab Sita bhaabhi!
Sh: avashya bhaabhi mera saath dengi...kyunki unka priya devar main hoon...haina bhaabhi?
He asked cutely ...
L: nahi bhaabhi...main hu...sarvapratham aapse meri bhet hui thi ...
Su: offohhh! kya karu main tumdono ka!
Sumitra said pulling their ears...
Everyone laughed and Sita and Ram were trying hard not to laugh at their expressions...
Ur: ummm...jijashree isse mere mann mein bhi ek prashn aagaya hai...ki aapki priya saali kon?
Ma: avashya main...maine unke liye kitne sundar vastra banaye the. ...
Ur: ooohhh! kuch bhi! mujhe toh gyaat hai mere jijashree ki sabse priya saali main hu...haina?
She asked Ram like a baby...
Shr: nahi...yaha sabse choti nain hoon...isiliye unki priya saali keval main hoon...
With that the 3 brothers and sisters started fighting with each other on Sita and Ram respectively...
R: arrey arrey bas kijiye aap sab! aap teeno mujhe eksamaan priya hai...Urmila,Mandvi aur Shrutkirti...tatha Lakshman, Bharat aur Shatrughna...Sita ko bhi tum eksamaan priya hai...kyu?
He asked Sita who nodded. ...
The elders could fo nothing but shake their heads and laugh...
************
" Ye dekho Sitae...tumhare Ram ki dasha"
Ravan uncovered the plate that a daasi held...
To her horror she saw Ram's severed head in the plate. ...
Ravan kept laughing like a maniac...while Sita stood petrified too the ground...
" SWAAMIII!!!!!!"
She shreiked...at the top of a voice getting up with a jerk...
Hearing her scream Ram woke with a start...and found het trembling. ...
R: Sita!
He hugged her tight...rubbing her back to stop her shivering. ...
Sita just looked at him with a tear stained face...caressing his face...
S: ( sobbing) aap theek toh haina? aapko kuch...kuch hua toh nahi... kahi ghaav... .
R: shhh ...Sita kya hua? tum itni zor se kyu chillai?
bura swapna dekha?
Sita looked at him still sobbing. ...fear of something drastic still visible in her eyes...
Ram pulled her closer...she was alnost on his lap...
Holding her against his heart he gentky asked. ...
R: kya dekha tumne? hmmm?
S: (crying& scared) m..maine...
She narrated him what all she saw...making him hug her...
R: ( to himself in worried tone) kahi ye bhavishya nein kisi sankat ka suchak yoh nahi?
He wondered...
By now Sita had stopped shivering. ...
Ram cupped her face and kissed her eyes close and put her head in his lap...caressing her hair very softly...
R: ab tum sojao...kuch nahi hoga mujhe...jabtak hum saath hai...kal surya dev ke mandir bhi jaana hai...
He whispered. ...
And closed his eyes stretching a bit on the bedrest...
They fell asleep like that with Sita in his lap...getting a peaceful sleep. ...
TBC😳
Note:
Sita's dream later turns out partially true when Meghnath...Ravan and mandodari's son...expert in maya makes a fake head of Ram and shows it to Sita... stating that her Ram was no more...
