"Didi, chai." Chhotu came up with the second tea cup and Suman took it and embraced it with both of her hands, mentally cursing Shravan for being late.

Since last night, she was really tensed about the reaction of their families and thought to talk to Shravan once and hence, called him to Tom tea stall but mahashay abhi tak aaye hi nahi aur humari Sumo hai gusse mein.

Shravan stopped at the stall, taking long breaths due to the running he had done to come here. Firstly, the gentleman snoozed his alarm twice. Finally when  he realised that he had got late, he freshened up, breaking the Malhotra record in 2 mins. He took out his car only to realise that the car was punctured. He huffed and then used his '11 number ki bus (feet)' and ran to the tea stall.

He spared a glance at the sulking Sumo to whom after seeing Shravan could make out that he is gonna face a rough wrath today.

Still, he went near her and before she could say a word he started doing up-down in front of her. She looked at him, her mouth gaped by the sudden act. She looked around to find few people seeing him and giggling. She went near him and told him to stop doing this and pulled him with her to sit on the rickshaw she was sitting before.

Shravan: So sorry Sumo. Wo kya hua ki..

Suman: It's okay Shravan. Just calm down your breathing.

Suman jitna bhi gussa ho, pr apne Shravan ko taqleef me thodi dekh skti hai.

After sometime..

Shravan: Kya baat hai Suman? Tumne ese achanak se bulaya mujhe yaha?

Suman: *taking a deep breath* Shravan..wo.. main..matlab..tum.. mtlb.. hm.. mtlb mene..

Shravan: Relax Sumo. Shaant ho aur phir btao kya hua h.

Suman: *properly framing the sentence* *closing her eyes and speaking in one breath* Gharwalo ko hmare bare me pta chl gya.

She waited for his wrath with closed eyes but it never came. She slowly opened her eyes to see Shravan with an amused expression.

Suman: Kuch..kuch bolo.

Shravan: Mtlb, tumne ye baat krne ke liye mujhe yaha bulaya?

Suman: Hn.. mtlb.. tum shocked nhi ho? Gussa nhi ho?

Shravan: Main aur gussa? Tumse? Pr kyu?

Suman: Kyunki mene tumse bina pooche ye keh dia gharwalo se ki main tumse shadi krne wali hu jald hi.

Shravan: Are pagal, ye to achi  baat hai na. Agar tum gharwalo ko bta chuki ho iska mtlb to yhi hua ki tum mujhse sach me pyaar krti ho.

Suman: Han lekin mujhe lga tum gussa hoge..

Shravan: Pr kyu..gussa hone mesi kya baat hai isme?

Suman: Wo mujhe lga ki abhi hmari career pr dhyaan dene ki age hai. Najane ese me tum mujhse shaadi kroge ya nhi.

Shravan: Tabhi kehta hu zyada mt socha kro. Iss chhote se dimaag ko itna bojh mt do. Arre, main to blki sbse khush hounga agar meri shaadi tumse ho aur wo bhi jald se jald. *he said the last part in his husky voice*

Suman: Sach me na Shravan? Tum..naraz..

Shravan: Bs! Agar ek aur baar ye narazgi ya gussa hone ki baat kahi to I will..*moving near her*

Suman *moving back*: Nahi nahi ab nahi bolungi.

They both smiled and started drinking their tea.

Shravan: Wese agar kisi ko shaadi krni ho to kaha krni hogi.. mtlb destination wedding, ya mtlb kese?

Suman: Wo to tum usi 'kisi' se jake pucho.

She stepped down the rickshaw to keep the tea cup on the table in the front when Shravan held her hand.

Shravan: *in a low voice* Usi se to puch rha hu.

Suman turned towards him and said: Ek chhote se mandir me, mahadev ke saamne, tumhare favourite color ke kapde pehne, sirf apno ke beech, saat phere aur unka aashirvad.

Shravan smiled and kissed her forehead lovingly.

Shravan: Ab tumhare sare sapne pure krne ki bari meri hai Sumo. humari shaadi wese hi hogi.

Scene changes to Malhotra mansion. Whole Malhotra and Tiwari clan was seated on the sofa and Shravan and Suman were standing in front of them just like that 6 yr old child who stands in front of his parents after doing some mischief.

Nanu: Ramnath. Wese to iss mamle me kl Suman se meri baat hui thi, aur baki kuch logo ko chhodkr (eyeing Manju), mujhe in dono ke rishte se koi aapatti nhi h. Baki jaisa tum aur tumhara parivar chahe.

Pushkar had a wide grin on his face by now for two reasons: 1. He had always noticed their love and now when they were gonna become one, he was on cloud nine, and 2. Ab uske bade bhai ki shaadi hogi to uski gaadi bhi to patri pr aayegi!

Ramnath: Nahi nahi Tiwariji, hme bhala kya aitraaz ho skta h. Aapki poti me aap hi ke gun to honge aur aisi bahu pakar hum to dhanya ho jaenge. Kyu Lala?

Lalaji: Bilkul bhaisab! Ab Suman ghar me aayegi to har roz uske hatho ka swadisht khana milega na, ab tk to hr roz bhindi kha kha ke pak gye h.

Kamini: Ki kya ji tussi? *eyeing him*

Everyone laughed and with this, they all started preparing for their wedding functions.

Shravan *in her ear*: To taiyar ho jaiye Ms. Suman Tiwari, Mrs. Suman Shravan Malhotra banne ke liye. *winking*

She smiled at him and they looked at their happy family.


A/n: To guys ab sab kuch normal ho chuka hai. Kyunki Sumo ne bahot kuch face kara, bahot misunderstandings thi to ab sab simple aur happy rakhna chahti thi isliye esa kia.

Ab aap log ye btao ki isse next ch chaiye jisme inki shadi hogi aur ek epilogue thodi nok jhok wali married life ke saath ya phir direct epilogue me shadi? Kyunki m bht confuse hu aur hmari Sumo ke mutabik, shadi to simple si honi thi :)

Ab hm story ke end tk almost aa chuke hain isliye pls vote and comment to the fullest.

Bye bye!
