Avu: AHHHHHH 

All went to her and saw her and Sumedh there.  

Sid: What happened, why were you shouting? This idiot did something? 

Sumedh: Why do you think I only do something always? I mean I did this time but still. 

Sid: You were already here. What did you to? 

Sumedh: I scared her, by mistake. 

Sid: All don't call you ghost for nothing. Avu, when did you return? 

Avu: Just now. 

Sumedh: Bhabhi, where do you work? 

Avu: In my office. 

All except Sumedh and Avu chuckled at her response. He had no reaction to her response, he just wrapped an arm around her shoulders. 

Sumedh: Oh, you know even I work in my office only. 

She shook her head. 

Sumedh: Bhabhi, there are so many things I have to tell you and Sid. 

Others left from there and Sumedh's expressions turned to a serious one. 

Sumedh: Kya hai yeh sab? Aur kisiko nahi pata tum dono ki shaadi ka? Pehle ho sakta tha mera ghussa shant karne ko jhoot bola ho, par ab baat kuch aur hi hai. { What is all this? And does no one know of your marriage? Earlier it could have been a lie to calm my anger, but now the matter is something else only.}

Sid: Bhai jaante hai sirf. { Only bhai knows.}

Sumedh(shocked): Woh maan gaye? { He agreed?}

Avu: Nahi, unhe recently pata chala, humari shaadi huyi tab hum khud nahi jaante the. { No, he recently found out, when we were getting married even we didn't know.}

Sumedh: Kya matlab? Mujhe sab clearly batao. { What do you mean?}

Sid: Hum dono ki shaadi poornima ki raat ke agle din huyi thi. Kuch logo ne karwayi thi, unka yeh reewaz hai ki saal mein ek aisi poornima aati hai jiske agle din woh do logo ki shaadi karwate hai, apne hi gaanv ke log. Yeh do log humesha ke liye jud jaate hai, dusra koyi ek baar ke liye alag ho sakte hai par yeh log soch bhi nahi sakte. { Our wedding was on the day after the full moon night. Few people got us married, it is their custom that once in a year the full moon night comes, on the next day of which they get two people married, both from their village itself. These two people get bound together forever, other couples can separate for once, but these people can't even think of doing so.}

Sumedh: Kisi bhi condition mein nahi? { Not under any condition?}

Avu: Kisi mein bhi nahi. Lekin ha, agar unke beech kuch galat ho, toh unme se jo gunehgaar hota hai use sirf shaadi se nahi balki duniya se hi mukti mil jaati hai. Aur surprisingly yeh log use nahi maarte, woh khud hi kisi tarah apni jaan gava baithta hai. { None. But yes, if there is anything is wrong between them, the culprit gets freed from not just from the marriage but from the world. And surprisingly no one kills that person, that person himself/herself dies in some way.}

Sumedh nodded. 

Sumedh: Par tum log toh us gaanv ke nahi. Aur tumne ha kaise kardi? Ek dusre ko jaante the us wakt? { But you people are not from that village. And how did you both agree? Did you both know each other at that time?}

Sid: Nahi, pehli baar mile the hum shaadi hone ke baad. Unke yaha jiski bhi shaadi hai us din, use pehle behosh kiya jata hai, phir dusra couple jo pehle hi shaadi kar chuka ho unki shaadi karwata hai unke saath chalke, unko bitha kar. Galti se hum dono ki karwadi gayi chune gaye jano ki jagah. Chehre dhake hue hone se kisiko pata nahi chala. { No, we met for the first time after our wedding. According to their custom whoever gets married on that day is first made unconscious, then another already married couple gets them married by walking with them, making them sit. We were taken there by mistake instead of the chosen ones. Because of our faces being covered no one found out.}

Sumedh: Phir? { Then?}

Avu: Pandit ne kaha bhagwaan ki chuni jodi hai. Humne socha ki... { The priest said we are a couple chosen by god. We thought of...}

They said him all their decisions and how their marriage proceeded with them eventually falling in love. 

Sid: Please daantna mat, pehle hi bhai se bahut daant kha chuke, hum apni galti samajh chuke hai. { Please don't scold us, bhai has already scolded us a lot, we have realised our mistake.}

Sumedh: Mai daantne bhi nahi wala tha, woh hak bhi bhai ka hota hai aur uski wajah bhi bhai ke paas hoti hai. Mai bhai jaisa hu, bhai nahi. Jo bhi ho jaaye, yeh farak rahega. Aur mujhe toh kuch farak nahi pada na is sabse. { I wasn't going to scold you both, that right is also of brother's only and a brother only has the reason to also. I am like your brother, not your brother. Whatever happens, this difference will remain. And all this didn't affect me in any way right.}

Avu looked confused. 

Sid: Sumedh humesha se har rishte ka bahut sammaan karta aaya hai, har rishte ki boundaries hai jo woh follow karta hai. Isne yeh baat pehli baar nahi kahi hai, ki bhai mein aur bhai jaise mein farak hota hai. { Sumedh has always respected every relation very much, every relation has some boundaries which he follows. He hasn't said this the first time, that there is difference in being brothers and like brothers.}

Sumedh: Ha, aur rishte se toh mai phir tere jeth jaisa, yaani tere bade bhai jaisa hi hu. Lekin please bhai mat bulana, Sumedh hi bulana. { Yes, and by relation I am like your elder brother-in-law, which means I am like your elder brother. But please don't call me bhai, call me Sumedh only.}

Avu smiled. 

Avu: Aapko samajhna sahi mein bahut mushkil hai, mahaan hai aap. { It is really very difficult to understand you, you are great.}

Sumedh: Heart attack degi kya? Itni izzat? { Will you give me a heart attack? So much respect?}

He said dramatically. 

Sid: Isko aadat nahi izzat ki, iski izzat koyi nahi karta. Isliye bas dikhata hai ki ise chahiye nahi. { He isn't habitual of being respected, no one respects him. So he just shows like he doesn't want to be respected.}

Sumedh: Teri zibaan kuch zyada hi nahi chalti? { Don't you speak too much?}

They both kept fighting playfully. Avu smiled, she had never seen this side of Sid. It's true, how much ever you grow up, once you meet that friend of yours, you go back to how you were at the time when you met them.
