Chapter 6

Third person POV

Gautam and Maurvi are going to Malhotra's mansion.

" Gautam, drive slow. What is wrong with you? " Maurvi said.

" I don't know, I have never felt so helpless in my life. I don't want Shaurya and Gauravi to be together but ... I don't like his way of living. He is even worse than Sahil. I don't know how this happened, I mean they always used to fight, complaining about each other... " Gautam said.

" Hmm, even I didn't ever feel that they could ever be together. Maybe I could imagine her with Shlok, but not Shaurya. They are quite mismatched, both short-tempered and impulsive. Gauravi needs someone like Mihir, or maybe Shlok, or Sujal. But what can be done now? Let's hope, everything goes well. But please be calm there, let me talk, you know that I am better in these matters. " Maurvi said. Gautam nodded reluctantly.

" Now don't look like a grumpy uncle. " Maurvi said and he rolled his eyes.

" I swear if you yell at Shaurya or misbehave with him there, I will not talk to you. " Maurvi said.

" I will try, but if he will not accept he is in a relationship with our daughter, I will punch him right there. " He said.

" You will not do such a thing or you will lose your friends. Do you remember, how Rahul and Mehul had a problem? " Maurvi said. He nodded.

At Malhotra mansion...

Sagar and Damini were waiting for Gautam and Maurvi.

" I don't know what is the matter, as Gautam sounded very serious which is quite unusual. I told him that they could come in the evening for dinner and we could have a good time, but he said that they wanted to come right away. There must be something very important and urgent. " Sagar said.

" I know... I hope everything is alright. Usually, Shaurya and Gauravi fight over something and as Gautam is very protective about his daughter, he gets angry with them, especially Shaurya. I hope it is not that. It gets very awkward. " Damini said.

" Hmmm... But both our kids have not been at home for more than a month, so how can he have a problem with them during this month? " Sagar said, Damini nodded. Just then the doorbell rang, and Damini went to open the door.

As she opened the door she saw their friends standing there.

" Good morning, it is so good to see you for so long, I think it is almost two months... " Damini said but felt a bit uneasy as Gautam was trying to smile but failed miserably, though Maurvi gave a beautiful smile to her as usual.

" Hi, Gautam! How are you? " Sagar asked with excitement.

" I don't know... " Gautam tried to smile again but his face mirrored his state of mind.

" What happened?? " Sagar got serious immediately and asked.

" Er... Umm... I don't know how to say this. " He said.

" Gautam, what is the matter?? Tell me, you are looking very tense. Tell me what happened ?" Sagar held his hand and asked.

" Sagar ji, actually we are here to talk about something serious. We want to talk about Gauravi and Shaurya. " Maurvi said.

" About Gauravi and Shaurya? What about them? Did Shaurya do anything... But he has not been in the city for more than one month. " Damini said.

" I know, but it seems that he has not told you anything till now. Even we came to know recently and we were shocked." Maurvi said.

" What has he not told us, Maurvi? Please tell us. " Sagar asked.

" They are in a relationship. " Maurvi said.

" WHAT?? Shaurya and Gauravi?? How is that possible?? But Gauravi is engaged to Mihir... " Damini asked both Sagar and Damini looked at each other asking silently if the other one knew about it but both were absolutely clueless about it.

" Yes, we came to know about this when Mehul and Megha came to our place to fix a date for the wedding and our daughter refused to get married to him saying........ She is in love with Shaurya. " Gautam said looking into Sagar's eyes.

" That is news for us, I am feeling very bad for Mihir, he must have got hurt, but if Shaurya and Gauravi are in love, we are happy to accept their relationship. " Sagar said and Damini nodded.

" Yes, we don't have any problem, in fact, it is good, but they have been fighting over everything then how come they got into a relationship? " Damini asked looking happy but surprised.

" We were also surprised to hear her say that and asked the same question, I could never thought of this in my weirdest imagination but it happens sometimes, you get attracted to a person who you actually don't like. Well, only they know what brought them close. But she said that Shaurya saved her life, maybe that's why..." Maurvi said.

" I am glad that Shaurya was there to save Gauravi's life," Damini said and even Sagar nodded at that.

" Yes, we are thankful to him for that... But Sagar, we need to fix their wedding as soon as possible. " Gautam said.

" What is the hurry? We just got to know this, at least, let this information sink in. As it is, there is no hurry, let them enjoy themselves for some time and be sure about each other, and then we will talk to them and fix an auspicious date in about 6 months. " Sagar said with a big smile.

" No, Sagar ji, we can't wait for so long. Damini, please try to understand... " Maurvi said getting very uncomfortable.

" Why are you getting so tense? Tell us, why can't we wait? " Sagar asked.

" I don't know how to say this... "

" Oh, c'mon Maurvi, we have been friends for almost 30 years now, why are you looking so hesitant? And Gautam, we have known each other for 40 years, what is wrong with you? " Damini asked.

Maurvi looked at Gautam and took a deep breath. But Sagar was getting impatient as he could see the tension on the faces of their friends.

" How will we understand if you don't tell us? Gautam, tell me immediately or I will punch you." Sagar said and Gautam smiled faintly.

" You will punch me? Do You want to get your face rearranged? Did you forget who was the boxing champion among all of us?? " Gautam said.

" Thank God! You at least smiled. Now tell me. "

" Damini, Sagar ji, We need to get them married as soon as possible, as Gauravi is... already pregnant ... with his child. " Maurvi said hesitantly.

" What??? How is that possible?? " Sagar and Damini got up immediately out of shock.

" That's what we are also shocked about but... " They were saying this when the door opened and Shaurya walked in and said, "Surprise!!"

But he was surprised to see Gautam and Maurvi there at his place.

" Good morning, Uncle and Aunty. " He said hesitantly.

" Good morning, beta. How are you? " Maurvi asked as Gautam was still annoyed with him...

" I am good Aunty, thank you. " He replied with a polite smile.

" Shaurya, you didn't tell us anything about your latest relationship... " Damini said and Shaurya looked surprised at what his mom said. He rubbed the back of his head and looked at his parents' friends.

" Mom... Why are you asking me that?" He said.

" Don't you think we ought to know about the girl in your life? " Sagar said to his son.

" Can we please talk about my love life later on, please? " He was feeling awkward about the topic in the presence of Gautam and Maurvi Jindal.

" No, we need to discuss it now that's why they are here. " Sagar said.

" What? I did not understand what that meant... "

" Gautam uncle and Maurvi aunty are here because they want to discuss your relationship... " Damini replied.

" But why?? How is my love life related to them? " He asked, looking confused.

" Stop acting! We all know about your relationship with Gauravi."

" What?... My what?... With whom?? " He almost yelled and looked absolutely shocked.

" Stop overreacting! He is not going to punch you. Accept it gracefully. " Sagar said.

" Accept what, Dad?? What are you talking about? " He asked.
