Chapter 19 - The Truth
The next morning all servants were busy decorating the Shekhawat Mansion. It was Sanyukta and Abhay's marriage occasion to happen.
Randhir was busy giving orders to the servants when Aarohi came to him dressed in a baby pink gown.
"Ap mujhe thoda godi meh le shakte ho...
Pleaseeeee!", (Can you please take me on your lap?) said Aarohi to Randhir.
Randhir pouted at her innocence mixed with cuteness.
"Hanji beta...aajao nah!", (Yes, please come!) saying Randhir picked her up in his arms.
"Mumma kidhar hai...?", Aarohi pouted.
"Mumma tayyar ho rahi beta....woh jaldi hi aa jayengi!", Randhir turned to find Sanyukta coming down the staircase clad in a golden lahenga dressed as the prettiest bride ever.
Randhir's mouth remained wide open for a moment or two.
"Sanyukta.. congratulations! I hope tumhari life aj se bahot zyaada achi ho jaye!", Randhir wished her luck while a tear formed in her eye for she knew what was happening was not worth for.
"Tum khush ho nah Sanyukta?", Randhir asked her hoping in mind that she answers no.
"Main khush hu Randhir..par kya yeh janke tum khush ho? Kya aj bhi meri khushi itni zaroori hai tumhare liye?", her words hit him hard. He knew what she was indicating.
Randhir remained numb for a while. He wanted to tell her badly that he still loved her. But he was weak in front of his ego. He refrained from talking any more.
The priest started chanting the mantras and all gathered to witness the wedding. But Abhay whispered in Sanyukta's ears, "Yaar main yeh shaadi nahi kar sakta! Preeti mujhe mardalegi saach mein."
"I know! Par main bhi machboor hu Abhay. Tum Randhir ko jante ho na...? Woh tab tak humari baat nahi manega jab tak hum usse sach na bata de." Sanyukta whispered back in his ears.
"Then tell him everything yaar! We can't let this marriage happen. We both know when are not meant to be, Sanyukta!", Abhay whispered back in Sanyukta's ear.
"Now bride and groom get ready for the pheras", the priest requested them.
"No no...Sanyukta please stop this wedding! You know I love Preeti and she loves me too. We can not let this marriage happen. Stop it please!", Abhay pleaded to Sanyukta as she remained engrossed in thoughts.
"Abhay...Sanyukta! What nonsense is this? You guys are getting married?", a voice stopped both of them from taking further steps.
Abhay and Sanyukta both refrained from taking further steps to complete the marriage rituals. Abhay's face turned pale while Sanyukta could not utter a single word except, "Preeti!"
"Abhay what is this going on? Can anyone explain it to me,please?", Preeti shouted at the top of her voice.
"Well I can!", smirked Randhir. "Its Sanyukta and Abhay's marriage ceremony going on dear."
"Are you serious, Abhay? How could you cheat on me. We have been a relation for so long and now you are here marrying your childhood friend!", Preeti jerked Abhay while Abhay tried hard to escape the embarrassment.
"Miss Preeti, now I really don't get you. Because as much I know Sanyukta and Abhay love each other and they even have a child, Aarohi", Randhir answered back while Sanyukta glanced at Aarohi was busy playing building blocks on the sofa.
"Preeti...I am sorry for everything! Please do not blame Abhay. He has done nothing wrong. Abhay was marrying me to hide the truth from Randhir about Aarohi...that she is my and Randhir's child. Preeti you know I am a single mother but Abhay never mentioned you the fact that I got pregnant 6 years back during the final year of my college when my family locked me down trying to kill me eventually. But Abhay saved me, thankfully, it's because of him today Aarohi and I am alive!", Sanyukta wiped her tears away from the corner of her eyes.
Abhay guarded her while Randhir and Preeti both had tears in their eyes. The truth was in front of them. The truth Sanyukta had always tried to hide from Randhir! Randhir moved an inch closer to her and asked, "Sanyukta, you could have trusted me for once? You have told me the truth?"
Wipping of her ceaseless tears, she stated, "oh really Randhir? Was it so easy? You trusted so easily on that Vidhushi when she came to tell you that I am married. Couldn't you just come up and check once whether I am married or not?"
Randhir cupped her cheeks stating, "Sanyukta, she was your bhabhi then...your family member. When she told me that you are getting married, I had not option but to trust her! I am really...."
"Really what...?", she asked curiously.
"Really....really....so....Sanyukta I knew it! I always had a doubt that you are hiding something from me. It was two days back I met Preeti for my event. After organizing the event, when we both were having our dinner, my eyes feel on her phone and I...."
Flashback
"Preeti..thanks for organizing my event so well. Allow me to treat you with the dinner!", Randhir made Preeti sit on the chair.
"Oh Please...its my pleasure! Sir I am planning to get married in some time with boyfriend and I want you to be there", she said sipping the glass of red wine.
"Preeti you know nah that I don't believe in marriages and all...So I don't wanna come. You carry on!", Randhir made a face.
"No ways Sir. Not happening!", Preeti was about to say something more but her phone buzzed and a known face appeared on the screen.
"Abhay? what on earth Abhay has to do with Preeti!", Randhir murmured to himself as Preeti went out to attend the call.
Flashback over
"I asked Preeti everything about Abhay and the very next moment I had a plan to know everything from you!", Randhir smirked staring at Sanyukta and Abhay.
Hearing this from Randhir, Sanyukta fumed in anger. She walked away from him saying, "Randhir... you lier...You cheat! How could you do this to me? Do you have any idea how much worried Abhay and I was thinking about this marriage. I am not going to forgive you for this! Never."
Saying she headed straight towards her room leaving the crowd in astonishment.
Precap - Randhir to walk up to Sanyukta and ask for forgiveness.
