CHAPTER 9

15 4 8
                                    

Ravi and  her family had their dinner with some chit chat and happily teasing each other, with little bit of bickering.

NEXT MORNING
Ravi woke up after the voice of alarm.
" Ya shut up! I am awake you stupid alarm making so much noise early morning."
She woke up still feeling sleepy and did her morning routine.
When she checked her mobile she suddenly recalled that it's their flight day.
" Uff let me just bring my suitcase down."
Saying this to herself she picked her suit case and walked downstairs.
" Ravi dear you came."
Her mother asked her smiling beamingly.
"What happened mummy darling you look so happy today."
Ravi asked her teasingly and wiggling her eyebrows.

" Oh god this little girl. Baby listen today we are going back to Delhi your birth place where you had your childhood so ofcourse I am happy and after all you are getting married. Why I won't be happy hun."
Her mother said all this caressing her hair and cheeks.

" Are you all ready with your suitcases? Hope you are not forgetting anything."

Ravi's father asked entering the drawing room.
"Yes Papa all is set we are not forgetting anything and we are ready to board our flight."

Ravi said with enthusiasm.

Her parents were really happy that Ravi is slowly accepting the reality and they were glad she is so excited to go back to Delhi.
But little did they know that this is not her real laugh not her real smile.

RAVI'S POV
Though I am glad that my parents are happy and I have full heartedly accepted my new husband. What was his name uhh yes guddu weird name for a full grown man but ofcourse this must be his nickname.
Even I have Arjun in my heart but I know with my new husband I will slowly forget him.
All I can hope is he sticks to his promise of letting me achieve my dreams.
I just hope he at least respects me and opinions if not loving me.
Please God just take care of everything all I need now is your blessings and support.

THIRD PERSONS'S POV

They board a taxi and reached the airport.
During check in they suddenly faced some issue some inquiry was going on that some people are smuggling drugs in the plane.

They were kept waiting there on the queue but now Heman got angry and dialed his friend's phone and told him about all what was happening.

His friend quickly cleared everything and they were allowed to board their flight without too much delay, now even though the flight will take time to board but still at least they are inside the plane and can take some rest before reaching Delhi.

MR HEMANT'S POV
Huhh, my little princess gonna start her new journey now all I wish for is everything goes well.

It is really a tough task for a father to simply give away his daughter to someone who he doesn't even know properly.

I am glad at least in my case I know guddu from his childhood and after all Malhotra is my best friend we are chuddy buddies.
..........................................................
Well this is a little poem that I wrote on father daughter bond.

( Kal hi aayi thi ek nanhi pari
Angan mehkayi thi woh nanhi pari
Cham cham karti payal se sara ghar chehkaye thi woh nanhi pari
Apni meethi methi baton se mann ko lubhaye the woh nanhi pari
Udd jaane wali hain kisi aur angan ko Shobha ban ke yeh nanhi pari
Logo ka naya geet ban jaane wali yeh nanhi pari
Baap ka angan soona kar Jane wali nanhi pari
Dil ki dhadkan jo thi , dil ka dard kar jaane wali woh nanhi pari
Kash ruk jaati woh nanhi pari
Kahi na jaati woh nanhi pari
Baaki ki god ( lap)  main phir so jati woh nanhi pari.)

(Agar achhi lagi ho toh please comment karke batana badi mehnat se likhi hain maine. )
..........................................................

I came out of my series of thoughts when we heard the announcement that our plane is about to take off.
I tied my seat belt quickly and guided Ravi also about it.
I know it is her first time travelling in plane she is looking so excited just like a little baby looking at the world for the first time. 
I was just adoring my baby when my wife shook me to bring me out of my trance of thoughts.

"where are you lost Hemant?" Karishma asked concerned. 

"Nowhere my love, it's just i am, worried that now sooner Ravi will become someone's daughter-in-law and will leave us."  Hemant replied wiping that little drop of tear on his lashes. 

"I know you love her so much. She is our life, but every girl has to leave her home. Didn't I come leaving everything behind, hmm." Karishma tried to explain him.

"You know what Kashu I hate this ritual, like what do you mean by this ritual, a daughter who grown up and brought up in a home has to leave that just to settle and make someone else's home why?" 
Hemant questioned being a literally baby who does not want to leave his biggest possession. 

"Hmm you are  right let us do one thing make our  son in law stay with us only so our Ravi wont have to leave." 
She  said this with a teasing voice and a mocking smile

"Yes good idea, but guddu is planning to move out from his parents home and live separately with his wife, as you know already that Sanjay and bhabhi are mostly out of town." 
Hemant sulked completely.

"Oh god what i do with this man."
 Karishma facepalmed herself laughing on her husband's antiques. 

They were disturbed by the announcement of landing. 
"please tie your seat belts we are about to land in 20 minutes. I repeat  please tie your seat belts we are about to land in 20 minutes." 

"Ravi beta get up my daughter. come on get up we are about to land."
Hemant tried to wake her up being a complete softy for her. 

"Uhuhu papa just 2 mins." Ravi murmured sulkily in her sleep. 

"Ya waht two minutes get up or else we will leave you here only." 
"Yes papa I am up." "did we reach" 

"YES BABY thats why we woke you up."  Her ,mother replied smilingly.
