Part 24
Shlok slowly took her into his arms "Aastha u said wat u felt but Aastha I m sorry I don't believe in love I just married u bcause I cant see ur parents like that and also I married u bcause I have to marry someone very soon bcause baba's jatak kundali is like that I should marry so he will be in out of danger. I can say u never get love from me even though if u want to continue this relation I can understand ur feelings I wont stop u if u want to go away I wont stop u have whole life Aastha y do u need to be with the person like me but if u choose me then I can promise u that I will care u and protect u for my whole life." Aastha was shocked she thought he felt in the same way. Aastha "If not so then y did u kiss me at that day." Shlok "I... just want u to divert from that incident so.." Aastha "aap jhoot bol rahe hain see into my eyes and say Shlok that u didn't feel my love for even a second didn't u feel in the same way I felt y cant u accept it Shlok wat do u want I cant understand u is there anything in ur mind." Shlok "Kuch nahi." Aastha "Then wat is ur problem Shlok.." Shlok shouted "Bcause I don't believe in any love it only gives pain u cant understand now." Aastha thought y is he saying like this and she remembered Varad's words again "Aastha I m sorry for his behaviour his past moulded him like that. Please don't think bad about him. U r not going to resign right." She thought there is something to do with his past she thought she will change him and said "Teek hain Shlok as I said I love u for my whole life u should have no problem with it I m not going anywhere I will be here with u and I will prove u my love is pure and unconditional atlast one day I will gain u too." Shlok said "all the best but now eat this." And he gave plate to her. Aastha saw him and took plate and ate and said within her gulps "Shlok how did u convince ur parents." Shlok "I said na I will say the truth I said them everything they r feeling very happy u as bahu."
Shlok thought for a while Varad was going to say something to him and said he will say it later. He went to his brother and said "dada u said something u will tell later." Varad "As u said I will tell it later now go Shlok u have lot to do Shlok just keep my words in ur mind this is very important now she is ur wife not ur PA u should handle her carefully don't talk to her harshly she might be missing her parents too don't ever talk to her about Swati understood. She will be hurt Shlok." Shlok "Ji Dada." Varad "Shlok how is she now." Shlok "She is fine doctor said she should eat more." Varad "Shlok u know she called u for marriage then y didn't u say to me b4." Shlok didn't know how to answer. He saw here and there and said "Dada wo I thought it was unnecessary to think about resigned employee so.." Varad "Achcha Shlok u still feeling in that way." Shlok "aap seede seede kyun nahi poochte." Varad "Shlok y did u marry her is it just bcause we forced u to marry." Shlok "Haan and u don't think anything more than that there is nothing between us." Varad "Teek hain bas ab tum don't hurt her ok please control ur anger." Shlok "dada tum hamesha aise kyun kahte I will hurt her I have heart Dada I wont hurt her intentionally ok." And he left him. Ab kya he thought but some part of him felt happy feeling that Aastha would be beside him always.
Niranjan and Anjali went to Avdoot's office. Avdoot let them in. Niranjan "Avdoot ji aap aisa kyun kardi." Avdoot "Dekhiye Niranjan ji I also supported for Shlok and Aastha's marriage but Niranjan wen Aastha said she liked Rishi we thought she will be happy with him so I m sorry... I didn't think... about it." Anjali "but we already thought about their marriage a long time ago." Kalindi "sahi kaha aap ne Anjali ji lekin wat Shlok did on that day do u even know how he yelled at her she cried so much u didn't know wat he said." And she said everything how he thrown her out of the office and how he said he will kill her. Kalindi "Wat is this Anjali ji how can we give our daughter to a person who scolded her so badly." Anjali "Ye sab kab hua." Kalindi "B4 their project presentation and i thought Shlok is not correct for her I thought he will always hurt her if he get married to her I was wrong he helped Aastha during marriage at that time I got it they both made for each other their marriage was written in heaven." Niranjan "Kalindi ji I m sorry for his behaviour believe me we will see her like daughter don't worry." Avdoot "Niranjan ji thank u so much agar aaj Shlok nahi hain tho hum.." Niranjan "Haan Avdoot ji u didn't say that to me at all kaise hua ye sab u should have said me I would have helped do u think we r parai for u." Avdoot "Ji nahi Niranjan ji I promise u I will pay everything in return to u." Niranjan "Avdoot aap hame sharminda kar rahe hain achcha teek hain then wen we will get them married again." And then they fixed a date for marriage.
Aastha was sitting on sofa she was thinking about Shlok she was smiling herself for being Shlok's wife lekin us akdu ko farak hi nahi padta. She just leaned her head onto pillow and closed her eyes. She doesn't know wen Anjali came to her. She came and sat beside her. Aastha "Aunti aap.." Anjali caressed her face and said "Aunti nahi Sasubai kahiye." Aastha felt uncomfortable. Anjali "Aastha kaise hain tu do u want to eat anything tell me." Aastha "Kuch nahi such main bilkul teek hoon just now he brought nashta." Anjali "Achcha drink this soup." Aastha saw her concern and got tears. Wat got into him y is he so heartless. Anjali "Aastha kya hua Shlok ne kuch kaha hain kya." Aastha nodded in a no. Anjali "Aastha we went to ur home Aastha y didn't u say that u were in such difficulties did u think we were dead u should have said us we would have helped u Aastha y did u hide it from us and y did u work in such shops Aastha there is no need for u to do all that u should have just informed us." Aastha "On wat right Sasubai." Anjali "Aastha tum bohut achche ho I went to ur house we discussed about ur wedding again next week there is nice muhurat." Aastha "Sasubai I have a small request." Anjali "Beta bolo." Aastha "Sasubai can I be in my home until marriage." Anjali "Kya hua Aastha tumhe yaha achcha nahi lagta hain kya." Aastha "aise nahi Sasubai I will be here after marriage I mean I want to be in home for these last few days I want to spend some time with Aai and Baba please." Anjali "Haan Aastha tum jao and it is also a ritual that bride should not be in bridegroom's house until marriage." Aastha giggled and said thank u. Shlok came to home expecting Aastha to be in his room. He called out "Aastha Aastha." He didn't find her. He called Sita "Sita Aastha kaha hain." Sita "Shlok bau she went to her home."
Shlok thought wat the hell did she just leave without informing him. He immediately called her and asked "Aastha kaha hain tu." Aastha "Haan Sir I m in home kuch chahiye aapko." Shlok "kya!! Kya kaha tumne Sir." Aastha "Wo sorry I was habituated to it wenever ur name flashes on mobile I think it is to do something I m sorry tell me wats the matter." Shlok "Wat u went to ur home without saying me and y did u go can I know." Aastha "Wo Sir sorry Shlok Anjali aunti said I have to be in my home till our marriage so I came I also want to spend my last few days in this house uske baad main apna poori jindagi tumhari saath hi tho hain na don't worry." Shlok "O hello don't think I m missing u it will be in ur dreams understood." Aastha "Ok patidev we will see o hello." Shlok "kya." Aastha "I love u." and she cut the call. Shlok thought such main gone case hain ye. He was recalling all the happenings between him and Aastha in the past. Now he got it y she didn't go from this co. He bcame blind after Swati's betrayal. He cant see love again but Aastha it is different he still didn't understand y she wants to be with him even though he said he doesn't love her. He called her again. Aastha "Haan kya hain Shlok u called just now is there anything important." Shlok "Aastha do u really want to marry me." Aastha "Shlok if u have any such doubts then listen me carefully I want to be with u for my whole life aap hi mera sab kuch hain I have decided it now stop asking all this bakvas questions and prepare to be spoiled by me teek hain." Shlok "Aastha r u sure I mean don't take decisions in hurry think twice b4 u decide." Aastha "Shlok i already I thought about it 100 times now u be sure r u ready to marry me." Shlok spoke hesitatingly "Haan Aastha." Aastha "if u r sure about it then don't ask about it again ok." Shlok "Teek hain." And he cut the call.
