Holidays are the biggest saviors from your college life, hoping to get the annoucement of summer holidays but I haven' gotten it yet...
I was currently sitting on my bed early in the morning going through some lectures in my laptop when I got a phone call. It was from my brother.
Hello? I asked...
Yeah, Vaishu it's me, pack your bags and come back to our home..
What? Why?.. I asked in confusion..
Let's talk about it when we will meet right now pack your bags, and come back here I'll come to pick you from the airport then.
With that the call from the other line went off.. and I was hella confused as well as concerned..
I then thought to call my mom when suddenly I got a notification from my brother to not call mumma or papa...
But why ? That's all I could think of asking to him but he replied to not call if I trust him with a please..
With a racing heart I packed my bags without knowing what excuse to give to take a leave from studies..
Suddenly I got another call and it was from my friend Dhruv..
Yayyyyy!!!! Finally we got summer holidays he added...
Before I could ask him anything he answered everything i wanted to ask so I got a relief and told him that I'll be leaving for my home..
He said he will leave too to meet his family today itself and us to leave together...
But since my brother would be there to pick me from airport so I said to leave separately...
.
.
After hours of traveling I was finally heading to my home... but wait where's my brother??..
When I was looking for him suddenly someone closed my eyes with their palms from the back and I realized it's my brother..
Grow up brother, I said while rolling my eyes..
Yoo I thought you couldn't guess it was me, he laughed teasingly..
Bhai if you are done will you tell me the reason behind calling me here all of a sudden without telling the reason behind it?.. I asked boringly..
And then suddenly his expression changed and became a serious one.. Like something is bothering him...
Ahh yes, Sakshi .. he called someone.. A girl?..
Then I saw a girl coming towards us hesitantly while fidgeting with her fingers.. one can say she was nervous, leave her but why my brother was looking nervous all of a sudden while calling her..??
When she came closure then I realized how beautiful she was, at first I didn't looked at her properly as I was more focused on my brother's nervous state but when my eyes finally caught her appearance I was unable to take my eyes off from her.. she's so beautiful and tall and perfect for my brother.. suddenly it hits me that she's not his girlfriend and I should not ship someone randomly with my brother for God's sake so I stopped in the middle.. and stood there quietly looking for between my brother and her back and forth.. to say something..
After some good minutes my brother finally broke the silence.. Vaishnavi don't I repeat do not over react when you hear this, are you ready to listen? He asked further...
"Yes".. that's all I could say..
Meet the love of my life Sakshi Sharma..he said while intertwining their hands together and smiling at her..
Huhhh!! Wait! WHATTT???.. YOUR WHAT??..
I swear I couldn't believe that's what my brother would say.. my brother who never looked at any woman till now is holding hands with a girl, smiling at her while announcing she's the love of his life.... Whattttt!!!!!!!!..How?? WHEN??.. kehdo ki yeh jhoot hai, yeh nhi ho sakta.... (tell me it's a lie, no it can't happen) THAT'S ALL I COULD ASK AT THE MOMENT...
Yes Vaishnavi I'm serious I want to marry her.. he added further looking at her eyes assuringly..
Is it? Yes sure go ahead, oh God I can't BELIEVE you are asking for my permission to accept her as my sister-in-law so that you could marry her and live happily afterwards...
Sure I give you the permission right now itself go ahead brother I'm with you both..
Abe o?? Pagal hogyi hai kya terko permission kon mang rha pagal..he said..
(Hello? Who's asking you for your permission idiot, have you gone mad?)
Khud ko itna importance mat de tu toh mujhse badi bhi nhi hai.. he added
(Don't give yourself way too much importance, you are not even older than me)
Phir?? Agar ap mere permission nhi mang rahe the toh kya chahate the ap yeh sab batane k baad mujhse?? Itne nervous hokar..I asked...
(Then?? If you didn't want my permission then what did you wanted from me after telling me all this, being so much nervous)..
Nervous nhi thoda esa lagta hai, terko sirf meri help karni hai papa mumma ko convince karne shadi k liye permission dene tera permission dene ke liye nhi...
(I wasn't nervous it's just that we do feel a bit like that.. you just have to convince our parents to give permission for my wedding rather than giving your permission)
Ohh acha mujhe laga mera permission mang rahe unse phele.. hehe with that I started laughing embarrassingly..
(Oh I thought you were asking for my permission first before them)
Tera permission mangna chahata kon hai?.. he asked mocking..
(Who wants to even ask your permission)
Bhai I think it's getting too much now apko help nhi chahiye papa mumma se baat karne k liye? I mocked back..
(Brother I think it's getting too much now don't you want my help to convince our parents for your wedding?)
He was about to say something when sister-in-law asked him to leave for home to convince our parents...
.
.
.
While going to my house I was hella excited and nervous about how my parents would react after my brother would confess his feelings for sister-in-law...
She didn't came with us as she said she's staying there to pick her brother who's arriving in few hours..
Bhai bhabhi k parents man gye shadi k liye?? I asked my brother
(Bro did sister-in-law's parents agreed for the marriage?)
Han vo bohut chill hain aur vo pata hai bohut khush hue ki finally unki beti ko uski pasand ka ladka mil gya.. he replied..
(Yes, they're very chill and were very happy for her as she finally got the man that she loves)....
.
.
Home sweet home, after so many months I'm coming back here thinking about it I stepped forward to go inside but got pulled by my brother and he said to support him while he's convincing our parents for his marriage with sister-in-law..
Okay I'm going first call both of them then you come he said and went ahead inside first...
About my bags our kind helpers spotted me and have already started to take my bags one by one inside..
After sometime, "Vaishnavi".. my brother called me suddenly and I went inside with him.. Vaishu?! Mumma called me while coming towards me and then she hugged me along with dad..
Mumma.. papa.. ap kese ho??
(Mom, dad how are you both?)
Hum thik hai par kya hua tum yahan achanak bina bataye sab thik hai na? Daksh kya hua??.. papa asked
(We're fine but what happened? You are here without telling us. Is everything alright? Daksh what happened?)
Papa mai apse kuch kehna chahata hoon.. bhaiya said..
(Dad I want to tell you something)
What? Vaishnavi sab thik hai na??
( what? Vaishnavi is everything alright?)
Before I could say something my brother answered..
Yes dad, everything's alright..
I just.. I just want to say something to both of you..
What do you want to say? Say.. dad said..
Yes, tell us son.. mom further added
Mom, dad I.. I love someone..and I want to marry her.. that's why I want both of your permissions ..to do so.. he said in one go..
My brother is a dumbo because he thinks mom,dad will not agree but I know how much desperate they are for my brother's wedding..
Son it's... dad was about to say something..
Dad before you say let me tell you I love her to the core of my heart and if I'll marry then I will only marry her... my brother added..
But son... this time mom tried speaking something..
No, mom I won't take a no, you both only wanted me to marry someone and now when I'm telling I'll marry her then why are you denying to give permission..
But bhaiya papa, mumma... I tried speaking this time
Terko kya bola tha aur tu kya kar rhi hai Vaishnavi? My brother said in an aggressive tone..
But before I could retorted back..
Abe o janwar ! Chup ho ja, khabardar jo meri beti ko kuch kaha hai toh, ek toh kuch sunne k liye taiyyar nhi hai upar se ham pe gussa dikha raha hai..
(Shut up you animal! Don't dare to tell anything to my daughter, first you don't want to listen what we want to say and now you are showing your anger to us)
Papa nhi mai bas chahata tha ap permission dedo shadi k liye..
(Dad! No I just wanted you to give permission for my marriage)
Arey pagal sun toh le hame phele, tujhe permission dene k liye mana kahan kar rahe..
( you idiot! First listen to us atleast when did we say no to give permission?)
Ulta ham toh khushi khushi permission de rahe ki tu shadi karle ab Umar ho gyi hai bohut...
(Instead we are happily giving you permission to get married as you are getting old)
What!?.. Thank you so much mom and dad.. my brother suddenly got..happy..
And Vaishu sorry I didn't mean to be rude to you.. he added further to me
Acha acha thik hai chal chal... I replied when he came to hug me..
(Okay okay it's fine go now)
Ab naam bataye ga bhi bohu ka ya nahi?? Secret rakhna hai direct shadi k baad pata chalega??.. mom asked..
(Now will you tell my daughter-in-law's name ? Or will you keep it as a secret and will reveal after your wedding?)
Nhi nhi mai huna mumma bhabi ka naam Sakshi hai... Sakshi Sharma... I answered excitedly..
(No mom I'm there to reveal, my sister-in-law 's name is Sakshi.. Sakshi Sharma)
Sakshi 26 years ki hai mumma aur vo fashion designer hai.. bhaiya added further details about sister-in-law..
(Sakshi is 26 years old and she is a fashion designer)
Acha ab main baat uski maa baap ko bhi manana hai beta tum Sakshi ko bulao yahan, bichari akeli kaise mana payegi.. mumma said
(Okay now main point is we also have to convince Sakshi's parents, son call Sakshi here, how she might be convincing her parents right now all alone, poor her)
Nhi mumma bichari nhi hai bhabi unke parents ko already pata hai bhaiya bhabi ne ek sath mana liya hai lol... I replied..
(No mom, no poor sister-in-law because sister-in-law has already convinced her parents along with bhaiya)
What!?? Dad added and mom laughed looking at my brother's embarrassed expression and then we all busted laughing...
Son if everything is done then why don't you call them here and then we will fix your wedding date with Sakshi.. dad said..
Yes, yes it would be great calling them tomorrow itself... finally after so many years of trying my son has finally found his match on his own and is ready to marry so we should not delay anymore... mom added..
But mom won't you ask brother for how long he was hiding his relationship from all of us??? I asked..
Whatever it is I don't care about it more than Daksh marriage if he's happy with her and she's happy with him then let them get married as soon as possible... mom replied..
Mom that's why her parents have already fixed a meeting with us tomorrow, to visit their house so that we could further talk and fix the wedding date and discuss about important things as well as rituals for the marriage..bhaiya said...
Oh great! Sushma let's prepare the shagun and visit them tomorrow itself then.. dad added..
Yes dear, let's go we also have to buy things for shagun along with sweets and gifts for them.. mom chirped..
Then they both left for shopping and buying gifts for shagun leaving both of us behind in the hall...
I know what's bothering you Vaishnavi.. my brother suddenly said..
Oh really? What is it then?? .. I replied looking at him
"How long I am with your bhabi " right?? He caught me maybe he read my mind by telepathy or maybe I was too obvious today..
Umm.. uh.. I was unable to reply something...
Umm, uh stop... I know that's your question well Vaishu tumhari sister-in-law ke sath mein janam janam se hoon.. he replied while looking up looking kinda lost somewhere in his dreamland ...
Abe o! Pheku sidhe sidhe bolo na is janam mein kabse sath mein ho?.. I asked annoyingly...
(Hello capper! Why don't you tell directly from when you both are together)
3 saal se.. he replied..
(From 3 years)
Whatttt!!! I asked..
Sach bol rahe ho na bhai??..
(Brother, are you telling the truth?)
Han Vaishu sorry yaar tumse chupaya tha par 1 saal phele jab tumhe shak hua tha mujh par us din vo gifts mein Sakshi k liye hi laya tha par tumhare liye bolke tumhe de diya aur baad mein replace karke tumhare liye same gifts rakh diya raat mein jab tum Bahar thi so that kisiko shak na ho.. sorry once again.. he seemed genuinely sorry
(Yes, Vaishu sorry for hiding it from you but last year, that day when I brought gifts that was for Sakshi only but as you doubted me I said it was for you and gave them to you and replaced the gifts with same ones for you at night when you were out so that no one would doubt me...)
It's okay bhaiya atleast you brought the same gifts for me as well so I'm not feeling sad about it and I forgive you ... I replied
With that I hugged him and said to celebrate as he's finally going to meet sister-in-law and her family along with us tomorrow...for which I was really excited and eagerly waiting for.....
And then we both left to our respective rooms to rest...
