" Toh yaar meri aur kethu ki toh families ready hein ..Kunal kuhu ka toh career establish hone ke baad hoga..tum kab maangne Wale ho Mishtii ka haath... officially..uski Badima, Chotima.. Maa...aur naam ki hi sahi..your father in law...sabse kab permission le rahe ho..?"
Nihaal asked mischievously but his look gradually changed to anxiety seeing Abir's face..
"What..All well bro? "
Abir shook his head as if in desperation.
"All is well now Nihaal...lekin..mujhe pata nahin kyun Dil mein ek dar sa baith gaya hein..Two times ..two times I almost lost her ...Rahi baat family ki....agar koi humare rishte se khush nahin hein toh kya karenge...? Massi aur shriya maa ka pata hein...lekin Maa aur massima.....aur Shourya uncle toh mujhe shayad like bhi nahi kartha...aur bhi log hein jinke permission Mishtii keliye important hein.....mujhe toh bas use apna banana hein.. I need her in my life forever, I want to protect her.... I need to keep her safe ....Mera bas chale toh hum abhi bhaag ke shaadi kar lete..."
Abir rubbed his face as if to rub off the frustration he felt .
Nihaal looked at Abir's emotional outburst thoughtfully while Abir's eyes searched for someone in the gathering..

Both bride and groom's haldi ceremony was to be held side by side and as Abir reached the venue along with Neerav, his eyes were singlemindedly searching for Mishtii..
Last night he had waited for her to come back ..and waited.....but she didn't come ..
He had called but she texted back that massima needed her ..
Now with all the relatives milling up and down the corridors he couldn't very well bang on her door..!
He smiled nervously as he thought of the surprise he was about to spring on her..
Aane do use..
Mishtii spotted Abir the instant he stepped on to the ceremony area...
"Kya karoo...kaise Abir se normally behave karoo jab mera toote Dil ke ek ek tukda mujhe har pal chubh Raha hein. Abir ka dil dukhaoo...ya chotima ka vishwas todoo... Chup ho ja Mishtii...keep calm ...abhi jaisa hein waise hi behave karna...Abir tumhari har mood pehchaanthe hein.. agar use kuch bhi Shak hogaya toh ....shaadi ka mahol hi badal jaayega..... kal raat toh woh shayad tumhari room Tak aate..aur tum chahthi bhi yahi thi ....ki woh aajaye aur tumhe tumhari dard se door le jaaye...."
Mishti sighed as she absently rearranged the thaali with flowers and the haldi chandan paste...
"Ananya Di ki Shaadi ke baad Abir se baat karenge..kisi bhi tarah use convince karenge ki shayad humara rishta ek aur baar tootna likha hein kahin.....tab tak apne emotions ko rok lo."
