Sahil's POV
" She is a very nice girl uncle. She has every right to have someone who loves her. She is beautiful, elegant, smart, talented. Any man would be too happy to have her as his wife. "
" Will you be happy to be that man ? "
" Ji ???? " he looked shocked.
" I asked, do you like her? Would you marry her? "
I will kill you if you say yes...
But before he could say anything we all heard a crash. I looked towards that sound and so did Samar and dad.
My mom was standing there with her hand on her mouth and the tray she must have been carrying had fallen on the ground.
" What did you just say Sushant? " Mom asked. She looked shocked.
Shit !!! This should not have happened.
" Nothing honey, calm down...."
" Calm down?? Are you crazy?? My son got married and I don't even know.... you didn't even bother to tell me. How dare you?? You know I was dying to get my sons married. How could you be so heartless? How dare you not to invite me to my own son's wedding?? "
" Calm down Shweta.... " he tried to hold mom but she pushed him.
" Don't even talk to me now... " she glared at him.
" Please honey..." dad looked restless.
" My first daughter-in-law was staying with us for so long, I didn't even know. I would have loved to shower her with my love. I didn't even get a chance to know her as my daughter and they are already getting divorced? "
" Everything will be fine... " Dad tried again.
" Nothing is going to be fine. She is such a good girl. What did Sahil do? "
She saw me there and came to me and slapped me very hard.
She caught hold of my collar and said, " What is all this? You didn't even bother to tell me that you got married. That girl Manu is so cute, humble and beautiful. She lived with us with so much love. She is really good. How could you do that to her? "
" I am sorry ma... Dad forced me to get married to her..... "
" You are sorry?? Do you even know, what have you done ?? If your dad forced you in this relationship then she was also forced to marry an idiot like you? Which girl in her right mind would like to get married to you? Do you think, I don't know about the endless list of girls you date? " She was so angry. Both dad and I were tensed about her health right now.
" Actually it is good that she has gone. I was a bit guilty that I forced her to spend her life with him. " Dad said in a very high tone.
Swati also came running.
" Uncle please calm down, you know aunty can't take the stress. " Samar was trying to calm him down.
" No... Samar get this divorce finalized. I will get her married as soon as possible. Samar think about, what I said and give me your answer soon. I would love it if you marry her. You are such a nice and responsible boy. "
" Uncle but..... " he was so shocked.
" No... Think about it and let me know. If you would agree then I will talk to Mathur Saab. "
" No uncle... Please she was Sahil's wife.... " he said looking at me.
Thank God he has that much sense...
Samar's POV
Uncle asked me the same question which every Malhotra has been asking... I was sick of that...
Are they all crazy?? Like everyone thought that I liked Manu? Now only aunty is left...
I could not even think about it. But I can't tell uncle while Sahil is here and Sagar is not.
So I said, " No uncle... Please she was Sahil's wife.... "
" Whom he never even bother to give a look. No, now I want a husband for her who will appreciate her and take care of her. I saw that you always appreciated her and you are one of the finest young men I have met. Don't even bother about this thing that she was Sahil's wife. We both know that there were no emotions involved. " Uncle said looking at me.
I looked at Swati she was shocked.
Sorry angel bit I can't say anything while Sahil is standing here or the whole planning and efforts would be wasted and he might kill me as he is already angry.
" Uncle please try and understand it would be very awkward. " I said.
" There is nothing to be awkward about. If you like Manyata, then you are the man I want for her. " uncle said and Sahil stormed out of the room. Swati also looked at us with wide eyes which were glistening with tears.
What do I do?? My friend was angry...
My love was crying...
