Marriage First Love Next (Completed)

Chapter 6: Ho Gayi Shaadi

Sidharth and Sana's marriage got fixed after two days. Both the families decided that they would have a very simple wedding without much people. And it would be a traditional Bengali wedding as it was Sana's grandparents' last wish. The Shukla family had no problem with this as their only focus was to get their son married as soon as possible.

It was the night before the wedding. Rita Ji was not sleeping and looking at the window blankly. Ashok Ji suddenly woke up and noticed Rita Ji.

"Kya hua Rita? Tum abhi tak soyi kyu nahi?" He asked.

"Neend nahi aa rahi. Bas soch rahi hoon, hum jo kar rahe hai woh sahi toh hai na? Kahi hum koi zaldbaazi toh nahi kar rahe?" She asked.

"Iss mein tumhari kya galti hai? Pandit Ji ne hi kaha tha kaal ke muharat ke baad agle 3 mahine tak koi subh muhurat nahi hai. And we can't wait for 3 months."

"I know. Bohut muskil se Sid iss shaadi ke liye maana hai. 3 mahine mein woh apna mind change na kar le iss hi liye maine do din ke andar unn dono ki shaadi kara dene ka faisla liya. Lekin ab mujhe lag raha hai kahi main uss bacchi ke saath galat toh nahi kar rahi hoon? Sid uss se pyaar nahi karta. Agar woh usse kabhi khush nahi rakh paaya toh?"

Ashok Ji kept his hand on Rita Ji's shoulder and said, "Rita tum bhul rahi ho Sid humara Beta hai. Haan woh thoda ziddi hai lekin kabhi kisi ka dil nahi dukha sakta. Even uski toh adat hai apne aas paas ke har ek insaan ko khush rakhna. Woh Sana ko bhi bohut khush rakhega."

Rita Ji smiled and said, "I hope aisa hi ho."

Next Day...

It was early in the morning. Sidharth was sleeping peacefully in his room, suddenly someone knocked at the door.

"Bhaiii! Bhai darwaja kholo!" Nandu said.

Sidharth ignored her and closed his ears with the pillow. But Nandu kept knocking.

"Bhai please open the door. Mom aap ko bula rahi hain." She said.

Finally Sidharth woke up and went to open the door.

"Kya hai? Itni subah subah kyu distrub kar rahi hai?" He asked making an irritated face after opening the door.

"Bhai aaj aap ki shaadi hai." She said.

Sidharth got more irritated hearing that.

"So what? Abhi chala jaau shaadi karne?"

"Arrey aap gussa kyu ho rahe ho? Mom ne bola rasam hai isliye maine aap ko uthaya."

"Subah 4 baje kaunsa rasam hota hai?"

"Hai ek Bengali logo ka rasam. Woh kya kehte hai da... Dadhi...."

Nandu tried to recall but failed.

"Kuch toh hai, mujhe abhi yaad nahi aa raha. But aap neeche chalo. Everyone is waiting for you." She said.

"Jaana hi hoga?" Sidharth asked making an crying face to which Nandu nodded in yes while controlling her laughter.

"Tu jaa. Main aata hoon."

Nandu left from there. After sometime Sidharth came downstairs getting freshed.

Rita Ji came to him with a bowl of curd poha.

"Ab yeh kya hai?" Sidharth asked making faces.

"Dahi Poha hai. Woh Mrs. Mukherjee ne kaha tha subah suraj uthne se pehle tujhe yeh khilane ke liye. Unn logo ka rasam hai." She said.

"Mom aap ko iss puri country mein sirf Bengali ladki hi mili thi meri shaadi karwane ke liye? Kaise ajeeb ajeeb rasam hai unke."

"Ab zyada nakhre mat dikha aur khaa le chup chap. Pura din iss hi se kaam chala na hai. Aur kuch nahi milega khaane ko."
