Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi

Rain and Thunderstorm

Anirudh and Bondita are in Kolkata. They got a place to stay with the help of vendor and sarpanch Anmol Singh.

~In Kolkata~

Anmol singh is walking around his village just to check his people. He comes to AniDita hut.

Anirudh and Bondita rose up and respected him.

Anmol: How you feeling now? Is this house comfortable for you?

Anirudh: Ji, yes. Thank you so much for the food.

Anmol: It is our culture to treat our guests well. By the way, our servant will take care of you two until you leave Durga nagar.

They two smiled. Anmol looks at Bondita.

Anmol: I thought to ask morning itself, is she your wife?

Anirudh stands quite.

Bondita: Zimmedari! I am his zimmedari, sarpanch babu.

Anmol: What?!

He laughed.

Bondita: Why you are laughing?

Anmol: Zimmedar?

Bondita: Hn, he always tells this to me .

Anmol: Acha, such a good husband he is. That's why he knew what is his responsibility.

Bondita: Ama, my pati babu is very good.

Anmol: Wait! Are you from Madras?

Bondita: No I am from Tulsipur now but my maternal place is Madras.

Anmol: How this marriage happened? From Bengal to Madras! Warey wah!

Anirudh gave a fake smile.

Anmol: I look forward to many love marriage like this. This only will unite our nation together. Let the communities mix up to strengthen our unity.

He smiled and went out. Anirudh and Bondita sat down.

Bondita: Pati babu, love marriage means?

Anirudh jerked.

Bondita: Why he mentioned our marriage as love marriage? What does it mean?

Anirudh blinks on. Bondita waits for his answer.

Bondita: Tell me pati babu.

Anirudh: Bon.. Bondita, listen. In this age you can't understand something even if I explain about it. When you come to a certain age you yourself will learn everything. All you need to do is just wait for that age.

Bondita: At what age will I understand these things?

Anirudh: May be at 15 or 16!

Bondita: Now I am 11, oh my god there is 5 more years ah?

Anirudh nodded.

Bondita: Ok, I will wait until 15. But promise me that you will make me understand about this when I am 15.

Bondita stretched her hand to get his promise.

Anirudh goes speechless.

Bondita: Promise me, pati babu. At my 15th birthday you must explain me about this. Okay?

Anirudh slowly stretched his hand to promise her, Bondita looks on eagerly.

Only one inch to touch her palm for his promise!

Dooom! Dudoom! Thunder there.

Bondita frightened and closed her ears as she didn't expected it.

Anirudh: Uh oh, I think it is going to rain. Bondita, close all the windows or else water will enter inside.
