BEST FRIENDS

Chapter 74

Best Friends 74

"If all four of you are together then you forget everything else" Dida says noticing that Swara and Ragini have not done much work since the time their best friends have arrived.

"We should totally get you married to each other" Dadi exclaims, making everyone pin drop silence and smiling at her own great idea. "Yeah... we should totally do that. That'd solve every problems our families and you guys will have. Like we won't have to worry about your bad cooking because we know Ap is such a nice cook, Shona and Lado won't have to separate after their marriage and we won't have to send our babygirls away from us" Dida says falling in a trance "And you four can be best friends without your respective husbands and wives getting jealous. Isn't it great idea?" It's like now she is dreaming and just talking out loud in her dreams. Dadi comes out of trance when she feels Dida nudging her. She scowls at Dida for waking her up from such a great idea but when she looks Dida's unwavering glare she realizes what she has done.

Dida shakes her head, trying to tell Dadi that it's not possible since Swara is already in love with someone else and that even if it was possible they should not burden kids with their dreams and hopes. They should be free to chose their life partners.
Dadi gives them a sheepish smile and looks at everyone's faces. God, she has really made them feel awkward. Sanskar is blushing, an awkward grin in his face, 'to good to decline her proposal rudely' Dadi thinks and moves her eyes to Swara, hands fiddling, mouth closed with extra force 'to eager to tell that she loves everyone else' then she let his eyes go to Laksh, as expected he is looking as if he is constipated 'not the one for commitment' and finally at Ragini, exactly opposite of expectation, Dadi has expected Ragini to blush and blush some more but she is looking angry and there is a sadness in her eyes 'she is angry on her grandmother for bringing that awkwardness in their friendship'. Dadi concluded what their look meant and give them an apologetic look.

She should not have done it. She grimaces on her childish action. Everyone says right, your own children give you another chance to accomplish your dreams but your grand-children give you second chance to live your whole life. You live their childhood, their teenage and their youth with them.

Today, in her excitement, she has made their friendship awkward.
She frowns in herself, thinking, why her grand-daughters can't fall in love with Sanksar and Laksh, can't they see that how convenient it will be for everyone. She will not have to stay away from her princesses and she will also get two amazing grand son-in-law. But.... no Shona has to go and fall in love with that idiotic bad boy.
Controlling her chain of thoughts, she pulls herself out of it. No matter how much she wants for it to happen she should not pressurize them in any way and it's not their age to get married. All of them have to study, get degrees then understand their respective family businesses and then they will want to marry. And anyway love doesn't happen because it is convenient, it just happens.

"Sorry... I didn't want to make your friendship awkward and you all don't let my silly mistake strain your friendship. Anyway it's not possible!" Dadi apologizes and for them to not feel burdened she says that it's not possible.
Dadi and Dida runs off, all the while Dida muttering angrily on Dadi and Dadi pouting at her.

"Why is it not possible?" Sanskar asks but to his dismay no one answers and let him be.
"Why is it not possible???" He asks again and Swara glares at him, adoration in her eyes. She loves that it worries him when Dadi says that it's not possible for them to be together.
"Topper, if I don't know the answer first time then I won't know it even if you ask for 50 times" Swara scolds him as if he was a kid.
"I have not asked for 50 times!!!" He says defensively "but why is it not possible???" Swara scowls at him but the cute frown on his face makes her smile.
"You are pretty close to 50, you know?" Swara says, her smile genuine and content. "And who cares if Dadi thinks that it's not possible, we will make it possible!" That's exactly what he wanted to know as answer to his questions. Sanskar didn't want to know the reason behind Dadi's statement, he just wanted to know that his shona will be on his side even if its not possible and together they will make impossible happen. Sanskar comes behind Swara and hugs her, sighing. This is good... he can totally imagine his future like this.... both tired from their office work then after coming they will cook together, well she will do mistakes and he will rectify it.
He loves this girl with everything in himself!!!
Swara smiles to herself. She will never give up on him! Never! NEVER!
