Chapter 11
Whispered Promise✔️
Author's POV
It's been 3 hour since Siya and Manat left. Ekansh, Raghav and Harshad were talking about their business.
It's already night. They all had their dinner wothout Siya as she informed them that she will have dinner outside with Manat. Raghav wanted to deny but then stopped himself by saying let her be after returning to Rajasthan he will maintain her diet also she will never get to be anywhere without security.
They were talking when door bell rang. Krish opened the door because all the other elder look at him and being the youngest he had to open it.
"SAMIRAA DIDI!!!" Krish shouted and hugged her tightly like a koala. "I missed you, I missed you so so so much" He said.
Samiraa: duurr ho mu..mujhe Saas na...nahi aa rahiiiii
[Leave me, I can't breath!]
Krish (breaks the hug): ohh sorry, but u know I missed you so so so much. Mere jitna miss kisi nai kiya hoga aapko.
[Nobody else would've missed you as much as I did]
Harshad: jhootha jhootha, yeh bilkul saafed jhooth hai Sam. Maine tujhse sab se zyada miss kiya tha.
[Liar, that's a big lie Sam. I missed you the most]
Harshaf hugged her and hid his face in the crook of her neck.
Samiraa : aacha abhi 2 hafte pehle hi aap Canada aaye the Harsh voh bhi 1 week ke liye.
[Okay but you came to meet me 2 weeks ago in Canada and you were there for a week]
Harshad: tho kya mai tujhe miss nahi kar sakta. Mera bas chale to tujhe kabhi vaha na Jane duu ya phir mai tere sath vaha settle ho jau.
[So? That doesn't mean I didn't miss you. If it was in My hands I'd never let you leave from here or I myself would've come there to live with you]
"Whatever" Samiraa said and she pushed him aside and went towards Ekansh and Raghav. They stood up.
Samiraa: Namaste, I'm Samiraa Panchal, Siya's elder sister.
Raghav: myself Raghav Manav Singh Raghuvanshi, Siya's husband. And he is my elder brother Ekansh Raghuvanshi.
Samiraa: pleasure to meet you guys. Harsh where is Siya??
Harshad: She is with manat. She will be back soon.
Samiraa: what the hell Harshad? How can you let her be alone? You forgot what happened when we left her alone for that damn business trip?? No, call her back right now I can't let her out like this anymore.
Krish : don't worry didi, that stupid dodo's security men are following her and she is safe.
Harshad: Sam you know right, that Harshad Shekhawat can never be irresponsible. And these two are like my kids sweetie.
Krish: I don't want to be your kidd
Samiraa: Krish ( strict voice)
Krish: areee... I was... saying I don't wa..na be your kid jiju, because I want..to be your.... your... your son ya son
Harshad (amaze): aacha you wanna be my son.
Samiraa rolled her eyes and went towards the kitchen to drink water. On the other hand here Harshad And Raghav were teasing Krish.
Harshad: Raghav suna aab Mera ek beta bhi hai.
[Raghav, I've a son, now I'm father]
"Par bahut hi Batameez hai. Koi nahi shik jayega. Papa aur chachu sikha denge sari tameez" Harshad said and smirk.
[But he is very rude. No issues we'll teach him. His father and Raghav uncle will teach him how to respect elders]
"Chal beta aapne chachu ke pav chu" Raghav ordered Krish who was kneeling on the floor to pick up his ring that fell down.
[Come on touch your Raghav uncle's feet]
Harshad kicked him lightly making him fall and resulting his head to be at Raghav's foot.
Raghav: saada shukhi raho, bhagwan kare tumhe tumhari pyaarrii Dhwani mile jaye aur jaldi se shaadi karke aapni life mai busy hojao. Tathastu
[Stay blessed, may God make Dhwani and you a pair. May you both get wedded soon so that you can be busy with her and let your sisters get busy with us]
Krish started glaring at both his brother-in-laws while they are smirking at him.
Krish: just wait Mr. Raghuvanshi aapko bada shokh hai na mere chacha bankar mujhse aashirvaad Dene ka, but first AHHHHHHHHH DIDIÂ !!
[Just wait Mr. Raghuvanshi. You love to be my uncle and give me blessings right now see.... AHHHHHHH DIDI!!]
Krish suddenly shout confusing the two.
Samiraa ran out of the kitchen to see Krish lying on floor and crying while putting his hand on his back.
Samiraa (in Gujrati, native language): su thayu krish? Hey bhagwan
[what happened Krish? Ohh god]
Krish: k..kai nai
[N..nothing]
Samiraa: su kai nai, jova deh mane. Kevi rite padi gayo tu ?
[What nothing, let me see. How did you fell down?]
Krish look at Harshad then Samiraa
Krish: k..kai nai bas dodo nahi jiju.... ee masti.... ma dha-dhakko ma-maari atle jor thi jayi ne Raghav jiju na pag pase jayi ne padiyo atle vagi gayu..... pan vandho nai hun thik chu have...( he try to get get up but ) ahhh.....
[N..nothing just dodo sorry jiju ..... just push me jo..jokingly but by the force I fell near Raghav jiju's foot and hurt my self.... but it's okay I'm fine now..... ahhh]
Samiraa: harsh tamne dyan thi karvu joiye ne, chokra ne lagi gayu hotu tho kyan javanu atily raate. Bs masti masti masti, atli Moti company na owner tho tapan Nanpan nathi metatu. Have eeni Kamar ma lachak aavi hase tho? Tame ne Siya ane Krish sathe rahi ne eema jem masti Khor thava lagiya che. Tees varas na thaya cho pan.....
[Harsh you should be carefull, what if he got injured severely? Where will we run in this late at night huh? Always just messing around doing frolic. You are handling such a big company but still doing all these childish act. What if he sprained his waist? You know being with both of them you also started behaving like them. You are 30 years old but still...]
Harshad: I'm sorry, I will never do anything like this I promise I will not even touch him. (Holding his ears)
Samiraa: what should I do to your sorry? You should have thought before doing this now pick him up and take him to his room I will send an ointment, apply it to his back.
Harshad: What!!! I pick him??? No never I'm not doing it he will kill me. Are you even aware about his weight??
Samiraa: Harshad don't talk about his weight ok, he is not fat and what did you made your body for ?? Use it to pick him up and also call Siya don't know where the hell this girl is. Now go fast.
Harshad went and picked krish
Krish : jiju take me to the terrace first.
Harshad started climbing stairs and after a lot of difficulty they reach there when Harshad was about to put him down Krish again said
Krish: please take me down stairs I forgot my phone and my sir will call me in an hour or so.
Harshad: go by yourself you are not hurt. I know you are acting.
Krish: ok so you will not hmm ...... Samiraa di...
Harshad: ok ok I'm taking you stop it you brat!
Krish : good for you dodo.
He started pulling his cheeks to annoy him.
Harshad just tried to save his handsome face with too much difficulty and again picked him and took him to the hall when they reach their Krish said
Krish : Oops sorry it's here actually it was in my pocket. I hope you don't mind. Now take me to terrace
Harshad roll his eyes and took him to the terrace.
Krish : ok now take me to my room
Harshad: Krish enough now I'm drain out
Krish: ohh so sad let me call Samiraa didi she will take me she...
Harshad throw him on his shoulders this time and took him to his room and threw him on his bed and went out.
While krish shouted from behind.
Krish: Krish se panga padega mehenga.
[Shouldn't have messed with me!]
While in living room Raghav is still thinking why Harshad didn't oppose when Krish blamed him. On the other hand, Samiraa and Ekansh were talking about family and giving a brief introduction of all the members. Well this is the main reason why Veer told him to accompany them so that he can make them aware about their family and make a good impression.
Suddenly
Siya: DIDI..... ( run towards her and hug her tightly but not like Krish) I missed you soo much
Samiraa: ok ok how are you Siya?
Siya: fine. Today I will sleep with you. Dodo I'm borrowing my sister from you today... dodo? Dodo where is he?
Samiraa: he is with Krish actually Krish got hurt so he took him to his room
Siya:What's!!!how? bahut laga hai?
[Is he injured severely??]
Samiraa told her the story that krish told her. "itna nahi laga hai Maine dawai bijvai hai" she said.
Siya (looked at Raghav and said in little angry voice ): aapko usse girne se pehle hi pakkad lena chaiye tha na. Ab dekho usse kitni lagi hai. You are a business man na aapko to musibat ke pehle se hi Pata hona chaiye na.
[You should've caught him before he could fall Hukum. Now look at him, he's injured. You're a businessman right you should've been a bit predictable about this even and should've taken some precautions]
Raghav: b..but I didn't knew he...
Siya cuts off.
Siya: aapko nahi Pata tha? Kita lame excuse hai yeh hukum. Koi bhi insaan kisi ko dhakka dega to voh Girega hi na. Faltu ki baate mat Karo.
[You didn't know?? If someone will push a person he/she will definitely fall. Don't talk rubbish hukum]
Raghav: aree par sunno to....
[Listen to me..]
Siya: kya sunu? Aapne voh Gira tab bhi usse uuthaya nahi aap to bs dekhte Rahe.
[What is left to hear? You didn't even help him get up now you Listen to me]
Siya: Pata hai girane vale se bada uutha ne vaala hota hai par nahi aap to usse dekh keh khush ho Rahe the na. Ke aacha hua ki yeh gir aapse batameezi ki thi issliye na.... iitne bade ho par fir bhi iitni choti si baat nahi taali gai aapse.
[You know you should have saved him or helped him but you chose not you. You were just sanding there smiling at his fall why? Because he insulted you. You're so much older than him but still you can't overlook that one mistake?]
Raghav: lekin.... [But...]
Inner voice: aree Raghav kya kar raha hai? Dekh nai raha ki voh Kitna gussa hai kyun aapne hi per par kuhladi maar raha hai.
[Raghav what are you doing?? Don't you see she's very angry. Don't add full to her fire]
Raghav: but she should know the truth first then scold right!
Inner voice: bro you can't win infront of her caring sister avatar. Look at Ekansh bhaisa what he is trying to say.
Raghav looked at Ekansh who is giving him signals to be quite. Now he understand why Harshad didn't say anything to Samiraa.
Siya: you will apologise to him.
Raghav: what? I'm not doing anything like that.
Siya: okay then I'm not going anywhere until you will apologise to him not even Rajasthan.
Raghav: what?? Siya stop kidding.
Siya: I'm not kidding. Hukum you will say sorry to my brother then I will come.
Samiraa: Siya this is too much. Also it's not his fault Harsh pushed him.
Siya: so what didi he should help him na.... hukum....hukum....(she started looking here and there)....where is he?
Ekansh: He went to say sorry to Krish.
Samiraa: Siya yeh tune aacha nai kiya. Tum log ki nayi nayi shadi hui hai aur tumne unhe eesa daat diya. Aur upar se voh Krish se kitne bade hai voh sorry bolege tho aache lagege..
[Siya what you did isn't right. You both are newly married and you just lashed out on him. He's so much older than Krish it won't look goog if he apologizes to him]
Siya: par didi Krish. Usko lagi na voh agar pehle hi uuse pakad lete tho nahi hota ye.
[But didi, what about Krish. He's hurt too. If he would've been a little on his toes and caught him this wouldn't have happened inthe first place]
Samiraa: aacha or voh kya superman hai ki time rok lete aur uuse bacha lete girne se pehele. Huh aur Krish ne unse batameezi ki yeh baat pe tune usko sorry bolne ka kaha tha? Nahi na tab tho voh baccha hai na... Siya tu hamesha soche samjhe bina hi kam karti hai... kis baat pe daat diya unhe unki tho galti bhi nahi thi aur sorry bhi unko hi bolne ko kaha....
[Siya he is not superman that he'll freeze time and catch Krish before he can fall. And when Krish behaved rudely did you made him apologize? No right. You'll always give that excuse that he's a kid. Siya your mouth is always faster than your brain. He shouldn't apologize to Krish, it isnât his fault]
Siya started feeling guilty and her eyes got teary which was notice by Ekansh.
Ekansh: aree it's okay now. Siya just got scared knowing Krish was hurt that's why she might not have thought straight so it's okay. And also I know my brother he didn't mind at all. He knows sorry kehne se koi bada ya chota nai ho jata. So Siya please don't cry, you are not allowed to cry at such a small thing. Go and see Krish, see if he is okay. Now smile....
[And also I know my brother he didn't mind at all. He knows that when incomes to apology nobody is big or small]
Ekansh said but Siya didn't.
"Aree you won't listen me ohh its the first time when someone is not listening to my words. I have to do something to this person" Ekansh said and slowly went towards Siya and started tickling her.
Siya: hahahaha... so... sorry bas...hahaha... bas..hahah
Ekansh: Now that's better. Now go see your brother.
SAMIRAA POV
I must say Raghav is perfect for my sister. He didn't even once yell at her when she was scolding her and also went to say sorry just to see her happy. Even his elder brother is treating Siya as his younger sister the way he made her laugh and also pointed out my fault without hurting me shows how good their upbringing is. That's what I want for my Siya's. Her happiness, atleast she will get family's love.
Please God just like them may all the other family members love Siya. Give her your blessings. Just be with both of my siblings and my husband too. Now I have to talk with him too I scolded him too much still he didn't mind ... Harsh why are you soo good???
AUTHOR'S POV
Siya went upstairs to Krish's room to see that the trio are silently sitting on the bed and looking coldly at each other. She starts to overhear their conversation.
Harshad: You know there is no need of this ointment anymore..
Krish: so? ( looks at Raghav ) why are you here?
Raghav: kehna padega Harshad tumhara beta bahut he disrespectful hai. Mai yaha aaya hun sorry bolne kyunki meri biwi ne mujhse kaha hai issliye varna sacchai hum sabko Pata hai..... sorry
[I must say Harshad your son is really disrespectful. I'm here to apologize because my wife asked me to otherwise we all know what really happened. Anyway, sorry]
Krish: ohh iitna pyaarr.... iitni baat manevale ho meri behen ki haamesha ya fir yeh natak hai aabhi ka?
[Oh just look at this love, are you gonna agree to everything my sister say or this is just limited to these few days you're here?]
Harshad: enough Krish now you are crossing the limit.
Krish : to kya eese hi kisi ke bhi sath bej du aapni behen ko. Iinka kya pata future mai meri behen ko yeh kehkar chod deh ki yeh forced marriage hai mai kabhi nai karna chahta tha.. tab kaha jayegi meri behen? voh jaldi hi sab se attach ho jati hai. Mai nahi chahta ki voh hurt ho. Bahut hi emotional hai voh, humne bahut kuch khoya hai par ussme Sab se zyada Siya didi ko affect kiya hai voh jaisi dekhti hai vaisi strong nahi hai. She pretends to be strong infront of us, but still fails. Uuse nahi aata iss duniya mai confidence se aapni baat rakhna, agar ussne aaj apni baat rakhi hai aapke samne isska matlab hai ki voh aapse attach hona start kar chuki hai aur mai yeh nai chahta. Mai usse yahan se eese hi nahi bejuga, jab tak mai sure nai hun.........Voh nahi seh payegi iss baarr, (sob)..... voh ma..maarr jayegi agar iss baar kisi ne usse akela choda tho..... voh.... (sob) voh... pagal hai aabhi bhi duniya ko nahi samajhti, sochti hai (sob) ki log kya kahege................ (Suddenly glare at Raghav) Mai nahi dekhna chahta uuski aankho mai aansu. Agar leke jaa rahe ho to dyan rakhna uski aankh se ek bhi aansu nikla tho mai nahi dekhunga ki aap kahi ke prince ho ya aapke bhai king hai maar dalunga.
[Then what should I do?? Let he go away with an unknown person? I don't trust him, what if he leaves her saying this was a forced marriage I never wanted it?? What will happen to my sister? Where will she go? I know her, she gets attached to people easily. I don't want her to get hurt. She's an emotional person. We've lost alot in life, we've suffered through many things but it has affected Siya didi the most. She isn't as strong as she looks. She pretends to be strong infront of us but fails miserably. She doesn't know how to put forth her words with confidence and if today she did that infront of you that means she has started to get attached to you. I don't want that. I won't let her leave this house as long as I'm not fully convinced that you won't hurt my sister, That you won't leave her. She won't be able to bear the pain if someone leaves her again...., (sob) she won't survive if someone left her stranded again... (sob) she... she's mad, she don't know how this world is, (sob) people's opinions matter alot in her life...... (glares at Raghav) I don't wan to see tears in her eyes. If you are taking her to your house make sure you treat her well. Make sure not even a drop of tear falls from her eyes. If it does I won't bear that I don't care if you're a prince of some place or your brother is a king I will kill you]
Raghav (looking in his eyes and speak seriously): I promise you to never make her cry. And everyone is well aware that RAGHAV RAGHUVANSHI never breaks his promise. And leaving is not possible saale saahab [brother-in-law] not in this life I might die if I do that. (Wishpered the last line but only Harshad And Krish hears it)
Harshad: thik hai tune iinka test liya par mere se kya dusmani thi mujhse kyun iitna upar niche karaya
[Okay I agree you made Raghav go through this test, but why me?? What did I do?]
Krish: bas aap mere papa hona to mai ne tho bas ghoda ghoda kiya. (Speak in most innocent tone and pouting cutely)
[Nothing in particular, just because your my dad so obviously i wanted a horse back ride on you]
Harshad: beta tu agar eese hi aapna pyaarr barsa ta raha to tera yeh papa bhari Jawani mai bhagwan ke pass poch jayega..
[Son if you keep showering your love on me like this the I'll knock the golden gates of heaven very soon]
Krish: tho nahi banna ab papa aapko?
[So you don't wanna be my dad anymore?]
Harshad: na bilkul nahi maaff karo tumhara jiju hi thik hun mai. Mujhse eesi nalayak aaulad nai chaiye.
[Nope not at all, I'm sorry I'm good as your brother-in-law. I don't want a useless child like you]
Krish: whatever, but chachu aap to deh sakte hona aapne bhatije ko ek ride (said looking cutely at Raghav with most innocent face)
[Okay but Raghav uncle atleast you can give a ride on your back to your nephew]
Raghav: chachu??... nahi meri biwi ke Lal.... jab tu iinka beta nai hai to Mera Bhatija kaha se; jab baap hi nahi to chacha kaha se hoga. (Give him a silly smile)
[Uncle?? Nope my wife's beloved brother. When he isn't your father then how the hell will I be your uncle? If you aren't his son then you aren't my nephew either]
Krish: but on a serious note don't you think that we got distracted from our roles...... don't you dare to think that I will let you live your life peacefully
Harshad: huh? Stop buffing kiddo
Raghav: true now grow up. Stop giving childish threat to us we get such threats 100 time a Day. Let's go Harshad. Take care of your broken back.
Harshad: yeah bye get well soon, ohh sorry it's fake right no problem if you ever want to experience the real one then come to my room its upstairs I would love to break it in reality (smirk)
Krish: byee never show your face again
Raghav and Harshad: not possible saale shaahab
Before they can see Siya, she hid herself and once they are gone she smile and went towards her room.
