Bhabhi [Completed] ✔️

Chapter 4 - Faisla

16-Feb....

Mr. Hooda was in his room of haveli sitting at his bed lost, pained yet thoughtful about the future. It's his elder son's kriya tomorrow and the sorrow, pain that he felt couldn't be depicher in words. Loosing your son at the time when you expect them to hold you at such age but they leave you behind, it hurts even more the death itself. People say that he still have someone to held him, but only if they knew, the count could never make a difference as a parent's heart would always love all of his /her children the same and loosing them would just bring misery.

His chain of thoughts was broken by a knock at the door. He let his gaze fell on the person standing there only to found Mr. Agrawal there making hi gesture a come in which he obliged.

"Kaise hein", Mr. Agrawal asked.

"Thik toh nahi hoon lekin upar vala iss dard ko sehne ki himmat dega toh ho jaunga", Mr. Hooda reverted in a weak voice.

"Kuch baat karni thi", Mr. Hooda asked as if reading the nervousness at Mr. Agrawal's face.

"Unmm mein nahi janta ki kaise kahu ya phir iss Waqt ko dekhu lekin ek baap hone ke nate mein khud ko rok bhi nahi paa raha",Mr. Agrawal started with a defeated sigh.

"Mein samajh raha hoon tum iss baat ko kaha lekar Jane ki koshish kar rahe ho er mein chahunga ke tum saaf saaf baat karo, joh hona tha voh te ho geya eb humne agey ki sochni hein", Mr. Hooda nodded just then they heared a knock at the door.

"Kon hein", Mr. Hooda asked.

"Papa ji khana", they heared a faint voice at the other end

"Sana bache andar ajao", Mr. Huda spoke.

"B-", Mr. Agrawal started but Mr. Huda cut him off.

"Joh bhi baat hum kar rahe hein voh usss bachi ki zindagi ke barein mein hein toh uska yaha mojood hone ka haq hein", Mr. Hooda stated to which Mr. Agrawal just nodded and Sana sat down perplexed.

"Batein aab", Mr. Hooda said to Mr. Agrawal who nodded in response.

"Mein janta hoon ki abhi mera aisa kuch bolna ya sochna bahut jaldi hein lekin please aap meri bachi ka sochiye voh sirf athais (28) saal ki hein uske agey uski sari zindagi padi hein voh khud abhi kuch sochne samajhne ki halat mein nahi hein lekin hum toh bade hein humein toh uska bhala bura sochna hoga", Mr. Agrawal said in a thick yet determined voice as he glanced at his daughter who was sitting in front of them her face void of any emotion and her ever so beautiful contoured in nothingness, her not - so - lifeless body covered in a white suit.

"Dekhiye joh hona tha voh toh hogya aur Sana hamari beti jaisi hein, hum kabhi bhi nahi chahenge ki voh apni zindagi aise guzare", Mr. Hooda said with a defeated sigh.

"Isliye aap bataiye aap kya chahte hein", Mr. Hooda further asked.

"Kal Pradeep ki kriya hein aur mein nahi chahta ki meri beti ko sufed kapda udhaya jaye, voh uski vidhwa zarur bani hein lekin sari umar vidhwa banke guzarna uske liye koi nyay nahi hein", Mr. Agrawal spoke and Mr. Hooda nodded in understanding.

"Agar aap izzajat deh toh hum apni beti ko apne sath vapis lekar jana chahenge", Mr. Agrawal said folding his hands as a gesture of respect.

"Aru", Mr. Hooda said and Mr. Agarwal went silent.

"Voh hamara pota hein Agarwal sahab hamare Pradeep ki akhri nishani hum use kaise khud se door kar dein", Mr. Hooda asked his voice choking, he had heared one of the worst news of his life just four days ago and he isn't ready for more at all.

"Toh aap rakh lijiye apne pote ko lekin humein hamari beti ko lekar Jane dijiye please", Mr. Agarwal requested.

"Ek maa aur bache ko door karne ka soch bhi kaise sakte hein aap", Mr. Hooda asked accusingly.

"Mein bas ek baap ban ke soch raha hoon", Mr. Agrawal said rubbing his face with his hands.

"Aap yahi chahte hein naa ki Sana khush rahe", Mr. Hooda asked.

"Jii", Mr. Agrawal retorted.

"Toh bahar kyu jana uske liye", Mr. Hooda said now in a somewhat relieved tone.

"Matlab, mein kuch samjha nahi", Mr. Agrawal frowned.

"Hamare khandan mein latha udhana (pagdi pehnana) aaj bhi vajib samjha jata hein", Mr. Hooda spoke in a confident voice. P

"Apka matlab Sidharth-", Mr. Agarwal said with a gasp finally getting his point.

"Sahi samajh rahe hein aap", Mr. Hooda said with a slight smile.

"Lekin voh uski bhabhi hein", Mr. Agarwal said looking at his daughter who sat there still as if she wasn't actually present there at all.

"Bhabhi thi aab voh biwi banegi", Mr. Hooda said.

"Umeed karte hein ki apko isse koi pareshani nahi hogi", Mr. Hooda asked.

"Hamari beti aap jaise bhale logo ke ghar mein hi reh jaye aur age bhi badhe isse zyada humein aur kya chahiye Hooda sahab bas ek baar Sidharth se pooch lijiye", Mr. Agarwal suggested.

"Apne bhai ki zimmedarian puri karna uska farz hein aap uss baat ki chinta mat kijiye", Mr. Hooda assured.

"Shukriya Hooda sahab bahut bahut shukriya apne bahut badi chinta door kar dih meri", Mr. Agarwal said folding his hands.

"Hamari beti aur pota hamare paas rahe isse zyada humein kya chahiye", Mr. Hooda said and both the man got up to engulf each other in a hug whereas, Sana sat there still as if freezed, she didn't reacted at all.

Just like that two people who have seen each other as nothing more than brother in law and sister in law are declared as to be the future husband - wife by their very own parents.

Sidharth who was outside the room waiting for this conversation to end was left stunned as he had heared each and every word of it. One can judge him for his actions but he had literally came here with the motive to make Mr. Agrawal understand that please let his brother's son and his wife stay here with them as he knew that like any other rational father he would be wanting to take his daughter with him as well and consisering that he had came here right after when Mr. Agrawal had asked him in the lawn about the whereabouts of his father, that the time of that talk had came so he had came here as well but when Sana came he hided himself behind the pillar still curious to know things. But never had he ever imagined it to go this way.

How could he even think about pinching vermilion in the hairline of that women whom he had always seen as his sister in law?
