Part 26
They had entered into a good shopping place, Soch, they had decided, that they would go for clothes first and then for the ring. Dhruv is missing, Aayush is in Shaan's arms and Khanak beside him'
Aayush: mom!! Lets play a game!!
Khanak: game?? Even Shaan is confused!!
Aayush: yes!! We'll search a shervani for papa and papa will search a dress for you and for me, what say?? (he winked at her)
Khanak: lekin Aayush we don't know his choice'..
Shaan: yeah Aayush, and I seriously don't know what to buy for your mom'
Aayush: papa don't worry, Dhruv uncle will help you, mom even you don't worry, I'll help you'
Khanak: and you know his choice' Aayush noded sweetly, Khanak and Shaan are surprised, Dhruv joins them, Aayush tells him this, Dhruv does a thumbs up, and now Aayush is forwarded to Khanak's arms, their ways are different, Shaan had to go for 1st floor for her dress'
Shaan and Dhruv entered a counter, and they asked for engagement dress, they showed a boat load of dresses, some Dhruv disliked it and most of them was disliked by Shaan, he wanted a simple attire for her but yes fashionable, he knew atleast so much, by the way she dressed, it had told him that, she is the perfect girl for him, even he is the same, isn't he??
Finally, both of them had agreed to a dress, offcourse it was blue in colour, as Khanak wanted it. Now its time for Aayush's dress'
On the other side, Khanak and Aayush are in great confusion, they had ended up for 2 shervanis, but they had to choose 1, as we know she was bad at choosing, even when she used to shop for her father or brother, if she would have liked two of them, then she would buy 2 of them, but now can she buy 2??
Khanak: Aayush dono hi le lete hai!! Whichever he likes, he'll wear!!
Aayush: mom, don't make it complicated, comeon pick one!! (encourages her)
Khanak is in utter confusion, Aayuh gives the support, and finally she selects one, she's not sure whether, Shaan likes it or not'.
Khanak and Aayush had waited for them in the lobby, as they had taken so much time to come back, Khanak was agitated, she's not fine with her decision, what if he doesn't like it, she had never seen him wearing traditional clothes, she just wanted to drag him and ask about her choice, but she couldn't do that, Aayush cooled her, he randomly talked making her cool, now she had forgotten where she was, she was just listening to her son talk, who was making her laugh, hadn't he grown?? She felt like as though he was grown very much that he was now talking like a big child with responsibilities and she also feared that, he would leave her. She hugged him to her chest, tears in her eyes'
Khanak: Aayush!! Please don't ever leave him!! (chokes down)
Aayush moves out of the hug, wipes her tears, Mom!! If you tell to leave me also, then also I wouldn't leave you!! I promise!! Now stop crying mom!! Aapki engagement ho rahi hai, aur aap ek chote bachchi ki tarah ro rahe ho!! He tickles her, making her laugh, he knew how to keep his mom cheerful!! Now he'll be accompanied by his new papa, to make her cheerful!!
Finally, Shaan and Dhruv had made their way down, both of them not sure whether each one of them likes each others choice or not' They found mother and son talking freely, and Aayush making her laugh and even the staff'
Aayush: papa aap aagaye!! (Khanak turns to see at him, Shaan could guess that she had cried, but he didn't wanted to ask her in front of everyone, he knew her so well, that even in his absence, he could tell what his love was doing' but for now she was smiling, her eyes now showed the curiousity to know what he had brought for her'
Khanak: what took you so long??
Both of them shrugged easily'
Aayush made Shaan to look at the shervani, Khanak is looking at him intently, his eyes roved over the material, he slightly touched it too, yes he had liked it, it was just the way he wanted it, his eyes had lit up seeing the material, yes now he knows that, his love also knows him well, he looked up st her, she was waiting for him to tell something, but'
Aayush: papa try it now!! Even Khanak noded to it, he agreed too'
When he had come out, we could say that Khanak would fall, thanks to the chair, she was leaned on'. He was looking best in this attire, he was just looking like a greek god!! His face to die for!! Aayush couldn't control his joy, he clapped, seeing his papa, even Dhruv liked it!! Khanak smiled gloriously at him, she appreciated herself for her work of selecting a perfect shervani for him, her future husband, thinking about that made her feel like as though butterflies in her stomach'
Now its Aayush's turn, Aayush was looking very good, Aayush liked Shaan's choice for him, he didn't have the heart to take it off, he had to'
Finally Khanak's turn, she took the bag which held the dress, she didn't open the bag in front of him. Dhruv and Aayush had gone out, as Aayush wanted to eat!!
After 5 minutes or so, she returned, but she was wearing her normal dress, Shaan is confused'
Shaan: Khanak!! You didn't like it??
Khanak: no!! I mean I loved it!! (glorious smile)
Shaan: then why didn't you wear??
Khanak: that's because you are not suppose to see me in this (pointing towards the dress) befor engagement fuction'
Shaan: who told that??
Khanak: myself!! (proud)
Shaan: Khanak please pehnke aao na, I want to see you right now in this dress!! (orders)
Khanak shakes her head in no, it irritates him. They pay for it and leave the place. Shaan is trying to avoid her, Khanak is enjoying his irritation, shes controlling her giggle' They enter into Tanishq for the rings, they are seated next to each other, they've asked for the rings, the person who's gonna attend them, he's searching for their best collections, Khanak moves closer to him'
Khanak: naraaz ho?? (near his ear)
Shaan ignores her and looks around the shop'
Khanak: Shaan!! Meri taraf dekho toh sahi!! (makes him look at her) sorry!! (holding her ears)
Shaan can't be angry with her for longer time, he had actually understood her, her feelings, it was so much important for her, his appraoval on her wearing the dress on that day, he now smiles at his own behavior''
Shaan: atleast ring toh pehnke dikhaogi na!! (mocking)
Khanak: nahi!!
Shaan: why??
Khanak: if you want, I'll wear it on my right hand's ring finger, but not on the left one'.
Shaan: ok!! (smiles knowingly) The person shows the rings for both of them, even Dhruv and Aayush joined them, ring was finalized too'
Cards for the engagement was also decide, they had returned to their houses, tired, happy'.
The next 2 days had fleed, now even in hospital everyone new about them, some were happy and some people had their own gossips, guests were decided, Khandelwal's house, venue for the fuction'
On the engagement day, Khanak had taken leave on that day, she's tensed, her friends and her neighbours are their with her, but she wished for her parents'
Aayush also calmed her, telling that he was there for her, there was a sudden chearing outside all of them looked at the direction, it's Dhruv's dad!
Part 27
Dhruv's dad is a cheerful person, he was best friend of Khanak's dad, and Khanak would mention him as her first crush, Khanak is very happy to see him, this was a surprise from her friends, in the next moment she's hugging him and tears are flowing freely from her eyes, he's hugged her back'.
Khanak: I missed you DD (she used to call him that in her past days)
DD: agar itna miss karthi thi, toh call kyun nahi kiya?? (chokes)
Khanak wipes her tears, moves out of the hug
Khanak: who meri naye wala bf ke saath busy thi!! (winks at him and smiles)
DD: achcha!! Aur uska naam Shantanu hai!! (smiling) (Khanak is shy) im happy for you beta!! (pecks her on forehead)
DD: achcha batao, kya kya shopping ki hai, abb main apni beti ki shaadi karoonga!!
Dhruv: Dad, seriously beti!! (makes a face)
DD: agar bahu nahi ban sakthi to kya hua, beti toh hai hi!!
Misha: toh phir Dhruv Khanak ki bhai hua hai na?? (pulling out of the senti part)
Raj: correct!! Abb se Khanak, dhruv ko bhaiyya kehke bullaigi!! (pulling Dhruv's leg)
Dhruv: oh plese main kisiki bhai nahi banne wala hun!! Waise dad main aur Khanak ne decide kiya hai, that we'll continue our affair part after her marriage!! (siddles up to her, Khanak pushes him)
Khanak: no ways of cheating my husband!! (blurts)
All of them: my Husband aah!!! (grinning)
Aayush: agar kisi ne meri mom ko tease kiya na, it won't be good!!
DD talks with Aayush, engagement preparations are on fire, they had to reach Khandelwal's house by evening.
Make up artist had come for her make-up, though Khanak had denied it, but her friends insisted her, only light make up was agreed by Khanak'
Khanak's dress
Her hairs were left in curls, she looking gorgeous in the dress, her waiste is exposed, it is adored by those beads, she had let her dupatta flow on her hands, her nech and ears adored with jewellery...
Aayush is wearing a cream coat on a black shirt and pant, looking very cute...
Evening, Shaan on otherside was all ready

Guests all have come, they are waiting for the bride's side. Khandelwals are grouped and pulling Shaan's leg, they get the message that bride side has arrived, Shaan and everyone turned towards the entrance, Shaan's eyes searches for Khanak...
DD is standind in the front, with Dhruv, Aayush is in Dhruv's arms and Raj, he's impressed by Khandelwal's for their arrangement, Khanak is standing behind them with Misha and all other people whom she knew...
Khandelwal's don't have any idea about DD, DD is introduced to them, DD is happy after meeting Shaan, Shaan bends down to take his blessing, but DD hugs him, he's happy for Khanak, Shaan is impatient, he wanted to see her, his love, but DD is completely covering her, Dhruv and Raj, sees that, they are controlling their laughter...
Aayush jumps down from Dhruv's arms, goes to his dad.
Aayush: (Shaan picks him up) papa your looking handsome... (his eyes sparkling)
Shaan: thanks, aap bhi bahut achche lag rahe ho!!
Sunil: arrey hamari honewali bahu kaha hai bhai??
Dhruv: woh uncle ghar par hai!! (joking)
Shaan: what?? (terrified)
Raj: chill!! he's joking! presenting Miss Khanak Mishra...(all of them move apart, Shaan is mesmerized by her simplicity and her beauty, Khanak is shy, she's bent her head down, she goes towards dadi to take her blessings, she hugs Madhvi and khushboo and Sunil and Akki gives her a side hug, she's not looking towards Shaan)
Misha: Shaan you can close your mouth (giggles)
Akki pats him on his back, Shaan rubs his hair at the nape of his neck...
Madhvi: chalo chalo sab chalthe hai, engagement shuru karte hai... (Aayush is now transferred into Akki's arms)
They make them sit together, on the chairs which is placed in the centre of the hall. Madhvi brings a plate, and does teeka for both of them from Dulha's side, DD does teeka once again for both of them from Dulhan's side...
After that rings are brought

Shaan's ring
They are made to stand opposite to each other, Khanak finally looks at him, Shaan is smiling at her, Madhvi gives Shaan, the ring, he takes it from her, he extends his left hand, she slowly keeps her left hand, he puts the ring onto her ring finger, ever so slowly, everyone claps...
Khanak also places the ring on his ring finger!! All are happy!!!
Mubbarak ho Shanak ki engagement ho gayi!!!!
Dadi gives them sweet, which was first eaten by Shaan and Khanak had taken the bite from the left off, that's one of the ritual...
Party is on, DD is easily gelling with Khandelwal's...
Dadi: Khanak beta, humne shaadi ke liye dates dekhi hai, dus din ke baad muharat nikal aaya hai, tumhare liye teek hai na??

At one point all are busy, enjoying the party, Shaan talks to dadi and pulls Khanak to a side and takes her to his room
Khanak: Shaan!! kya kar rahe ho?? (they are now in his room)
Shaan: Khanak!! (holds her hands in his hands) kya hua?? why are you tensed??
Khanak: Shaan this is so early, i don't think so that im ready for a marriage right now!! Aayush, tum, mere studies, i have that fear that i'll mess up, agar main Aayush ko time nahi depaoungi then he'll be sad, agar main tumhe time nahi dun, then u'll be upset, agar main apne studies ko dhyaan na dun, then i'll be ruining my parent's dream...
Shaan understands her, he moves near her, cups her face...
Shaan: Khanak chill!!!! i know that u won't mess up with anyone of us, i agree to that Aayush requires attention, don't worry hum dono usse sambhalenge, aur tumhari studies, main ho na, i'll help you and your parents dream will come true!! and me, im there in your schedule now, so mere liye chal jayega, bus thoda sa time, hamare romance ke liye de dena... (Shaan is grinning, Khanak smiles)
Khanak: lekin Shaan!! your family??
Shaan: our family Khanak!! trust me, they don't have any problem with this!!
Khanak smiles and Shaan engulfes her into a tight hug, Khanak is resting her head on his chest, her hands at his back, Shaan is caressing her back...
Shaan: congratulations on your engagement!! Khanak mishra!!
Khanak: Same to you!! (still engulfed)
Shaan: waise Khanak!! tumhara sirname Mishra hai, yeh mujhe aaj hi pata chala!!
Khanak is out of the hug

Shaan: tumne kabhi bataaya hi nahi!!
Khanak: what?? aise kaise bataya nahi!! i have my full name on my id, which i wear everyday!!
Shaan: achcha baba sorry!!, aaj toh mat lado!! (pulls her, his hand now comes in contact with bare waiste, Khanak gasps at his touch, Shaan moves his hand upwards, so that its on her clothing now)
Khanak has closed her eyes, Shaan slowly cups her face and pecks on her forehead, Khanak slowly opens her eyes, Shaan is too close, faces inches away, Shaan's lips slowly closes on her lips, he kisses her fully, her hands rested on his waiste, pulling kurta down with force, this time she also responds to the kiss!! Both are lost in their wonderland!!!!
