(My favourite bollywood song you guysss)

1 month later.

Shubman's pov:

I sat on the driver's seat and waited for my family to join me.

Tomorrow is Rashi, our cousin's wedding. So we have to drive to Delhi to attend her wedding.

I have already kept my stuff in the trunk.

But these women take a lot of time to get ready just for a drive.

My dad came and sat at the back.

"Aaj me piche bethna si!" He said.

"Kyu papa?" I asked him. He always accompanied me in the passenger seat.

"Meri pith vich dard ho rha he." He said holding his back.

Till then, Di came and sat in the front seat and mom sat in the back with dad.

"Beth gaye hun sab? Chalein?" I asked everyone before adjusting the rear view and side view.

I started driving to Delhi.

Mom and dad slept off during the 1st couple of hours.

So it was just Shahneel di and me.

Soon enough, the crossing of Delhi comes into view.

"Tujhe pta he shubhi, Aashna Jaipur shift ho gyi he?" Di said.

I looked at her in disbelief.

"S-sach me? Usne bataya nhi mujhe..." I said not believing her.

"Sach me, we talk often so I know." She said.

"Oh....wow! Now I don't even know her address!" I said.

"She lives in mansarover! I have her address." Di said.

I saw the green board, it had directions for Delhi, Jaipur and Agra. And it felt like everything went into slow motion.

My hands slid off the steering. My vision blurred to see figures of her.
And I don't know when my feet pressed the accelerator.

Suddenly the car came to an abrupt halt screeching the tires.

"Shubhi!! PAGAL HE KYA KAHAN KHO GYA THA? ABHI KUCHH HO JATA TOH?" Di shouted at me and I felt myself sweating and breathing heavily.

"W-what happ-ppened?" I asked looking around.

"Kya ho gaya, tu kya soch rha tha?" Mom said.

"Kya...." I don't even know what they're saying.

"Tu hatt driving se, I'll drive!" Di said getting out and I got out too, for some fresh air.

I rubbed my hands over my face and took some deep breaths to calm myself.

Di came near me and touched my bicep.

"Shubhi, are u ok? Kya ho gya tha?" She said softly.

"Di, me pagal ho jaunga! Please save me, please!! I can't live without her, I can't" I felt my heart beat faster and my breathing got uneven.

"Shubhi! Chill, deep breaths, kya hua tell me!" She said pulling me to sit on the front side of the car.

She touched my chest and tried to calm me down and I felt a surge of emotions wash over me.

I dug my face in her shoulder and let my emotions flow.

She hugged me back and let me cry.

"Di! I want her back, I want her back, I can't live without her, please!!" I said supressing my cries.

"Oh baby..." She murmured.

"I thought you were fine! But I didn't know you were suffering." She said while rubbing my back.

"Let it go, it's ok!" She said.

"Accha abhi chalte he, then you can go to Jaipur and.....win your love back, ok?" She said separating from me.

I nodded.

"Just a minute." I said and she nodded and got in on the driving seat.

Inside the car:

"Dekh liya aap logon ne, apni selfishness ka result?" Shahneel said as Keart and Lakhwinder looked at her confused.

"Oye hame bhi toh bata ki ho gya?" Lakhwinder said.

"Panic attack aaya tha shubhi ko, aaj tak nhi aaya. Aur yeh koi recent incident ki wajah se nhi aaya he! Yeh jo itne din se wo bechara suffer kar rha he, uski wajah se aaya he!"
Shahneel said sternly.

"Yeh aajkal ki cheezen he, hamaare zamane me toh koi nhi aata tha yeh...panic attack." Keart said.

"Mummy aapke bete ko panic attack aaya he!! Please be considerate! Aur pta he kya bol rha tha? Ki wo Aashna ke bina nhi reh sakta!" Shahneel confided.

"Toh saari galati uss ladki ki he, mere bete ka kya haal bna diya usne..." Keart said with a frown.

"Saari galati aapki he, jitni jaldi aap yeh baat accept kar logi utna sahi rahega. Ab aapke bete ko sirf Aashna hi bacha sakti he, time he, soch lo isse pehle ki bohot der ho jaye!" Shahneel said her last words in fast forward as Shubman came to sit in the passenger seat with a sad face.

"Theek he?" Di said touching my hand and I nodded.

For the rest of the ride, I kept sitting with a neutral face just looking out of the window.

We soon reached the venue. Bua's house, so everyone got out and Di gave me the keys to park the car after our luggage got unloaded.

I sat in the driving seat and thought for a moment. A man once said to me, if not now, then when?

I have to do something right now. At this point, it's just unbearable for me to be away from her.

"Shahneel!!" I shouted from inside.

"Haan bol!" She said coming closer to the window.

"Can you please...aur mna mat kariyo! Please give me Aashna's location?" I asked her.

"Haan tu park karke andar aa ja I'll-" "No Di, like right now, give it to me right now!" I cut her off.

She took out her phone and forwarded me her address.

"Thank you...." I said.

"Ab bhabhi liye bina ghar mat aana!" She said as I got ready to take off.

"Chinta na kar, ab toh teri bhabhi saath lekr hi aaunga!" I said and drove off to Jaipur.

Aashna's pov:

That guy Parth had tried to contact me multiple times but I literally paid no heed to him.

I was completing some work from home when I heard my doorbell ring.

Who could it be at this hour? It's almost 10 p.m.

I tip toed to the door and opened it just to peek outside.

But my hands slid off the door and I stepped back to let the person open the door.

Shubman stood there with an expression that I couldn't quite recognise.

What the hell is he doing here?

I'm so confused right now.

"Shubman, come in! What are you doing here?" I asked him but he remained quiet.

He stepped in and locked the door behind him.

He closed the distance and fell to his knees while covering his face with his hands.

"Sh-shubman are you......" I stopped talking when I heard sobs.

He bent down to my feet and started to cry heavily.

"Aashna, Aashna, I'm sorry please forgive me please!!" He said and I stepped forward and slapped him, hard, on the cheek.

"Mazak he kya tumhare liye ye sab? Jab chaho jab I love you, aur ek second me sab khatam kar dena?" I said.

But he hugged my thighs and kept crying.

Seeing him like that brought tears to my eyes.

"Aashna, me nhi jee sakta tere bina please try to understand Aashna, please!!" He weeped burying his face in my abdomen.

"Sh-shubman what are you saying?" I said trying hard to control my shaky voice.

"Aashna please marry me, please be with me, I need you in my life please!!!" He said.

I bent down to his level and held him close to me laying his head on my chest and resting my head on top of his.

I closed my eyes and felt the moment, it felt nothing but like how my life was supposed to be, right here, in his arms.

"Oh Shubman....please stop crying, I can't see you like this, please! Baby please!" I said.

He took a deep breath and looked up at me with teary eyes.

I quickly wiped his tears and kissed his head.

He swallowed thickly and buried his face again in my chest and started to sob.

"Shubman, please!!! Yaar rona band karo! Warna....warna me bhi rone lag jaungi! Good luck with making me stop then!" I said and he snickered a little while crying.

I lifted his face.

"I'll marry you, but meri kuchh conditions he jo tumhe maanni padegi!" I said, there's nothing better in my life than to marry Shubman.

"Tum jo bologi me karne ko taiyaar hu bass kabhi mujhe akela mat chhod ke jaana." He said holding me tightly.

"Me nhi jaungi, kabhi tumse dur nhi jaungi." I said in my crying voice.

"Tum bolo kya conditions he!" He said.

"Mujhe gol roti banani nhi aati." I said.

"Koi baat nhi, me seekh lunga!" He said and I giggled.

"Mujhe time to time ghumane phirane aur shopping karane le jaoge tum!" I said.

"Bilkul!" He said laughing.

"Kabhi meri outfit choices question nhi karoge!" I said.

"Tujhe jo pehenna he tu pehen, mujhe koi problem nhi he!" He said.

"Kasam he tumhe aage se kabhi cigarette nhi piyoge! Like kabhi nhi! I hate your cigarettes, and if you can't leave them, I'll not marry you!" I said.

"Kasam se nhi piyunga!" He said touching my head.

"Aur khabardaar agar kisi ladki ki taraf aankh utha kar dekha to tum soch bhi nhi sakte me tumhara kya haal karungi!" I said rubbing my palms together.

"Par baby esa toh ho hi nhi sakta!" He said and I widened my eyes at him.

"Kya bola tumne?" I said sternly.

"Uhh...matlab hamari koi beti hui toh?" He said showing his teeth.

"Oh my god Shubman!" I blushed hard and hid my face in his shoulder.

"Aur haan! Mujhe 3 bacche chahiye!" I said.

"Teen?? Hain??" He said making a wierd face.

"Haan teen! Kyu? Kya hua?" I said.

"Mujhe lagta he hame 1 hi baby karna chahiye." He said.

"Nhi nhi nhi! 3 matlab 3! Isse kam kuchh nhi!" I said.

"Shit, par 3 kyu? Tumhe nhi lagta 3 bohot zyada ho jayenge?" He said.

"Nhi shub!! 3 because it's my favorite number!" I said.

"Ese toh mera favourite number 7 he toh kya ab ham saat bacche karenge?" He said.

"Chup raho, I'm a woman not a gumball machine!" I said making him laugh out loud.

By now, we were sitting in the middle of my living room floor. Forgotten the tears completely.

"Tumne khana kha liya?" He asked me.

"Nhi...aaj mera fast he." I told him.

"What? Kis ka fast?" He asked me.

"Aaj savan ka pehla somvaar he, toh isliye mene socha ki fast rakh lu." I said.

"Tumhare vrat ka phal bohot jaldi mil gya hame!" He said.

"Thank you bhagwaan ji!" I said joining my hands and looking up.

"Tumne kha liya?" I asked him.

"Mera pet bhar gya, ab mujhe bhuk nhi lag rhi." He said hugging me.

"Don't you think we should get up and sit somewhere else?" I asked him.

"Hmm..." He said but didn't let me go.

"Shub, Let go!" I said making him loosen his grip.

I stood up and gave a helping hand to him. He took it and stood up.

"Shub? Tum ese achanak kese aa gye?" I said.

"Meri cousin ki shaadi thi, toh...wahi ditch karke aaya hu...abhi uska sangeet chal rha hoga." He said.

"What! Tum apne ghar ki shaadi ditch karke mujhe manane aaye ho?" I asked him.

"Haan...."

"Tumhari family ka kya?" I asked curiously.

"You are my family too...." He said making my insides melt.

I walked over to him and hugged him on my tippy toes.

"Change kar lo, agar yahin rukna he toh....fir...sone chalte he..." I said.

"Aaj raat yahin rukna he...tumhare paas.." He said.

I moved to my room and made comfortable space for him in my bed.

He came back a moment later, all freshened up.

"Shub! Tumhe mera address kahan se mila?" I asked him.

"Didi ne diya...I had to beg for it." I giggled.

We layed in bed and he closed the distance between us and hugged me to him.

I wrapped my arms and legs around him and slept peacefully in his embrace.

The next morning:

"Aashna, Shahneel mujhe ghar me nhi ghusne degi please chal le shaadi me mere saath!" Shubman joined his hands as I made us breakfast.

"Chup ho jao! Ese kese achanak me tumhare saath shaadi me chal lu? Log kya sochenge?" I said holding the ladle spoon to his face and he looked scared of it.

"Log kya sochenge? Yahi ki tu meri girlfriend he aur kya?" He said.

"Esa he, jab shaadi confirm ho jaye, tab mila dena gharwalon se, abhi kese milu?" I asked him.

"Mummy he na yaar wahan par, unse mil lena! Aur baat bhi ho jayegi hamari shaadi ki!" He said.

"Aashna please yaar please chal lo, tum chahti ho ki me apni behen ki shaadi gate ke bahar se dekhun?" He said dramatically.

I took a deep breath.

"Itna kya kar rhe ho, kyu le jaana he mujhe?" I said.

"I want to clear things with everyone." He said...well it's thoughtful of him.

"Ok...I'll go with you, fine? Par wahan jaakr koi natak na ho jaye?" I said.

"Don't stress yourself, me sab sambhal lunga." He said pecking my lips and I do believe him to make things right.

We reached the venue in Delhi but neither of us stepped out of the car.

"Chalein?" He said.

"Chalo." I breathed out.

And still we kept sitting in our seats.

"I'm scared!" I said fidgeting with my hands.

"Don't be, jo hoga saath me dekh lenge, alright?" He said holding my hands and kissed my forehead assuringly.

We got out on either sides and Shubman took out my luggage bag.

We moved together inside the venue and saw his mom standing there talking to someone on the phone.

She paused as she looked at us and cut the call to walk towards us.

I took a deep breath and braced myself for what was coming.
