Humsafar - Journey of Arranged Marriage

Chapter - 38

It was late in the evening when both the couples were seated in one of the most famous street food place in Hyderabad , Sri Narsing, relishing their famous pav bhaji and few other delicacies teasing each other, pulling legs and lots of masti.

"Okay guys listen, I wanted to talk to you both about something very important" Sidharth said looking at Preeti and Imran while Sana understood what he wanted to tell. Imran and Preeti looked at each other confused and gestured Sidharth to continue.

"See..I know tum dono ney aaj he confess kiya hai and all..but I really want you to tell about this relationship to Mom" he said when Preeti looked at him with wide eyes and before she could tell anything he cut her off and said "Hear me out first Preeti, dekh humney aaj thak mom se kuch bhi nahi chupaya hai...isliye mai nahi chahtha ki itni badi baath mom se chupi rahe..unko agar bahar se patha chale..ya baadh mey patha chale tho bohoth bura lagega..aur mai Mom ko hurt nahi karsaktha..intentionally tho bikul bhi nahi"

"Bhai..I understand..infact mai bhi nahi chahthi ki mai ye sab mom se chupake rakhu..par dar lagrha hai bhai..what if mom Imran ko accept na kare?? Baaki log kya kahengey sonchkey iss rishthey k liye mana kardegi vo tho mai kya karungi bhai!!" Preeti said almost at the verge of crying.

"Tho hum unko mana lengey Preeti..aap dono ka pyaar saccha hai..koi galath kaam thodi kar rahe ho ki maa-baap se chupana pade humey..I know Maa..vo bohoth broad minded hai Preeti..am sure vo na kahengi nahi Imran se milney k baadh..ek baar baath karke tho dekho..agar vo nahi maanthi tho mai aur Sidharth tho hai na tumhare support mey..hum waada karthey hai..Maa ko manalengey!! Ok??" Sana assured while Sidharth looked at her proudly like how can she handle everything so calmly!!! Preeti nodded her head and wiped her tears.

"Sidharth bhai..bhabi..I hope aunty iss rishthey k liye maan jaaye..mai puri koshish karunga ki vo khushi khushi iss rishthey ko accept kare..lekin..I don't think this is the right time to tell my parents about our relationship. Mere ammi abbu itney zyada broad minded nahi hai..aur abhi 2 months mey meri badi behen ki shaadi bhi hai..tho iss time pe ye sab bolkar ghar mey problems nahi create karna chahtha..ek baar shaadi hojaye tho mai khud batha dunga...I hope aapko koi problem na ho?" Imran said.

"I understand Imran..har ghar ki baath alag hothi hai..mai sirf mom ko bathaney keh raha tha..tumhari family se bhi baath karna hai..par vo kab aur kaise karna hai ye tum khud decide karogey..U know them better..so chill..jab thak tum meri behen ko khush rakh rahe ho..mujhe koi problem nahi hai!!" he said making all the three smile at his protectiveness. Soon they all reached home and Imran headed towards his home.

"Kya baath hai..aaj teeno bacchey saath mey!!!" Maa gushed opening the door while Sidharth rolled his eyes for her serial type maa behaviour!!.

"Kya Mom..aise khush hothey ho jaise ki kabhi hum teeno saath mey dikhe he nahi aapko!!" he said.

"Chup kar tu!! Pyaar hotha hai..tujhe kaha se patha hoga..saara pyaar tho biwi k liye hai iska sirf!!" Maa teased which made Sana go red in face and Sidharth huffed at his over dramatic Mom.

"Haaa haaa bilkul...saara pyaar biwi k liye hai mera...aap kaunsa mujhse pyaar karthey ho..aapka bhi tho saara pyaar aapki bahu beti pe aatha hai..beta tho yaad bhi nahi aatha!!"

"Saalaa..kitna bhi karo kam padtha hai inn logon ko..huhh!!" scoffing he moved towards his room and all the three ladies laughed at his antics.

Since it was already dinner time, Sana served the pav bhaji they bought as parcel for Maa and Prepared some haldi milk for Preeti, Sidharth and herself and sat with Maa while she had her dinner.

Cleaning the kitchen and bidding good night to Maa, Sana moved to their room with milk glass for Sidharth. As soon as she entered into the room she saw Sidharth working on laptop with his glasses on his eyes looking cute yet handsome.
