Elaichi,s bedroom.

Pancham made her sit on the bed.

Pancham: Ab aap theek hai.

He asked as he sat besides her.

Elaichi: I'm fine.

She said taking his hand in hers and smiled a little.

Pancham: Kya zarurat thi beech mein aane ki? Kuch ho jata toh?

He asked concerned stroking her hand gently.

Elaichi: Aur aapko kuch hone deti mein. Karwa chauth ka fast iss liye nahi rakha tha maine.

She said in a babyish voice making him smile.

Elaichi got up and went towards her cupboard. She opened it and took out something. She closed the cupboard and came towards Pancham. She opened her hand and revealed a mangalsutra which Pancham had made her wear at their wedding.

Elaichi: Dubara pehena dijiye.

She requested smilingly looking into his eyes and they were lost into each other's eyes again. They broke the eyelock and Pancham smiled shyly at her.

Pancham: Aap sach mein yeh chahati hain?

He asked for confirmation and she blinked her eyes as a yes.

Pancham: Per hum toh chupa rahe thy na?

He asked innocently out of confusion.

Elaichi: Jisse chupa rahe thy woh toh jaan gaye na ab puri duniya bhi jaan jaye fark nahi padta.

She said and went towards the mirror and he followed her.

Elaichi: Pehna dijiye.

She said slowly and he tied the mangalsutra around her neck. She smiled as happy tears rolled down her cheeks.

Pancham: Khush?

He asked back hugging her. His hot breath fell on her neck and shivers ran down her spine.

Elaichi: Bahot.

She replied as she came out of the back hug and stood in front of him.

Pancham: Ab aage Kya hoga?

He asked worriedly.

Elaichi: Jo bhi hoga. Mein aapko kabhi nahi chodungi

She said stroking his hand.

Pancham: Sethji ko toh hum mila hi leinge.

He said smiling adamantly and Elaichi also agreed with him.

Elaichi: Ab chale bahar. Baba ko bhi manana hai.

She said and he held her hand interlocking their fingers tightly.

Pancham: Ji chaliye Elaichi ji.

He said and they went to Murari's room.

Murari and Karuna,s room

Elaichi and Pancham entered inside.

Elaichi looked at her father with tear filled eyes but he didn't look at her.

Elaichi: Papa.

She called out, Gulping the lump in her throat, she took baby steps towards him and sat besides him and kept her head on his chest.

Elaichi: Sorry papa.

She said like a baby and held Murari,s little finger.

Murari was controlling his emotions. He wasn't angry on Elaichi but was hurt.

Murari: Kya sorry? Tune mujhy takleef di hai Elaichi. Bahot takleef di hai.

He said in a voice laced with hurt and Elaichi looked down in guilt.

Elaichi: I'm sorry papa.

She whispered looking down out of guilt.

Murari closed his eyes and took a deep breath and started to analyze the whole story.

He realized that it was just the situation and opened his eyes and smiled at Elaichi.

Murari: Vada kar dubara aisa Kuch na karegi tu.

He asked for a promise and Elaichi frowned and rest smiled.

Elaichi: Kya keh rahe ho papa. Shaadi ek baar hoti hai baar baar thodi.

She said to lighten the situation and all controlled their smiles.

Murari: Tu na sudgregi.

He said and Elaichi smiled more.

Elaichi: Kabhi nahi. Kyunke life mein tante ho rakhe hain.

She said and everyone burst out laughing.

Sunita and Pintu entered inside.

Sunita: Lagta hai sab theek ho gaya.

She said as she entered inside with Pintu.

Pintu: Sahi kaha Sunita ji.

He agreed with her and Everyone smiled.

Murari: Arre sun Shaljam.

He called out for pancham but again wrongly.

Pancham: Sethji Pancham.

He corrected as he came towards Murari.

Murari held Pancham,s hand.

Murari: Dekh mein apni rajkumari tujhe de riya hoon. Isse koi takleef na honi chahiye.

He said giving Elaichi,s hand in Pancham,s and everyone smiled.

Elaichi: Love you papa.

She said and hugged her father excitedly.

Murari: Love you too beta.

He said lovingly responding the hug.

Sunita: Illu Khushiyon wali selfie.

She said happily taking out her phone.

Pintu: Haan le lo le lo.

He as usual agreed with her and everyone took a selfie.
