Jaise ki aapko pata hai ki shivya ko first rasoi karni thi jisme usne Esmita ki help lekar pura khana hi usne banaya tha kyonki use kon si chize kahan hai use pata nahi tha isliye, jisse sabhi log dinner karte hai aur shivya ko apni apni taraf se sabhi gift dete hai jisse vo pahle to mana karti hai but baad mein le leti hai.
Subah ka waqt tha. Ghar me pooja ki taiyaariyaan chal rahi thi. Sab log jaldi uth kar ready ho chuke the.
Sirf ek kamra aisa tha jahan halka sa nervous silence tha — Shivya ka room.
Woh mirror ke saamne khadi thi, haath me saree liye, clearly confused and slightly anxious.
Tabhi darwaza knock hota hai aur Shiv andar aata hai. Woh already ready hai, calm but a little curious.
Shiv:(looking at her with mild concern)
Aap abhi tak taiyar nahi hui? Koi problem hai kya ?
Shivya:(avoiding eye contact, fidgeting nervously with the saree)
Nahi… vo… vo bas…
Shiv:(stepping a little closer, gently encouraging her to speak)Bas kya?
Shivya:(takes a small breath, slightly embarrassed) Hume… saree pehnna nahi aata.
(There’s a brief pause. Shiv processes this, trying not to smile.)
Shiv:(trying to sound practical, hiding amusement) Toh kuch aur pehen lijiye. Itne saare options toh hain.
(instantly looking up, eyes filled with determination)
Shivya:- Nahi. Aaj pooja hai. Hum saree hi pehnenge… chahe kuch bhi ho jaye.
(Her voice carries innocence but strong resolve. Shiv notices her stubborn sincerity.)
Shiv:(sighs softly, pretending to give up, but actually impressed) Thik hai… 😓
Toh kya main Maa ko bhej du aapki help ke liye?
Shivya: (quickly, almost relieved) Haan
(suddenly hesitates, feeling guilty)
Nahi… rehne dijiye. Woh busy hongi kaam me
Shiv: (reassuring tone, calm and supportive)
Nahi. Woh kab ka ready ho chuki hain. Bas Pandit ji ka wait kar rahi hain.
Aur waise bhi… aapki help karne me unhe khushi hi hogi.
(Shivya looks at him, searching for assurance. His expression is sincere and steady.)
Shivya: (softly, a shy nod forming) Thik hai… fir.
Shiv goes downstairs and sends Esmita to help Shivya. Esmita goes to her room and helps her get ready. After getting dressed properly, both of them come downstairs, where the guests and the Pandit ji have already arrived.
At Pandit ji’s request, the pooja started early because the auspicious time (muhurat) was not for very long.
Pandit ji:
“Om… shubh labh…
Pandit ji nirantar mantra uchcharan karte rahe aur sab log shraddha se katha sunte rahe. Kuch der baad katha samapt ho gayi aur aarti ka samay aa gaya.
Pandit ji: - “Beta, ab katha sampann ho chuki hai. Aarti ka samay ho gaya hai… aap bahu ka haath pakad kar saath me pooja (aarti) kariye.”
Shiv:-“Ji pandit ji…
(Ye kehte hue Shiv ne apna haath aage badhaya… lekin usne Shivya ka haath nahi, balki uski chudiyon ko pakad liya.)
Shivya ek pal ke liye uski taraf dekhne se khud ko rok nahi paayi…
Ab aise hi aarti bhi ho jati hai jisse sabhi aaye rishtedar aur baki ke ghar wale bhi jakar dusri side baith jate hai jahaan sitting space tha, dusri taraf pandit jii ne shiv aur shivya ko ghar ke sabhi kono me ganga jal ka chidkav karne ke sath sath sabhi room me Aarti dikhane ko bhi bol diya tha jisse vo log bandhe hue gathbandhan ke sath hi ye karne lagte hai fir aakar Panditji ko pranam karke prasad le lete hai jisse vo dono ab reletive se milne chale jaate hai kyunki Esmita ne bulaya tha.
Sabse pahle shivya jaker sabhi reletive ke pair chhuti hai uske baad shiv bhi tabhi vo shivya ke bhi pair chhune wala hota hai tabhi....
Once relatives:- Ab kya apni biwi ke bhi pair chhuoge
Shiv:- Devi ke pair chhune me kaisi sharam (saying this while touching her feet)
Other relative:- Deviii....😦
Shiv:- Haan aunty har ek stree devi ka Swarup hoti hai uss hisab to ye devi hi hui na..... Haina maa.
Esmita:- Haa ☺️😌🤭
Ab shiv vahan se chala jata hai aur shivya aise hi unke sath baat karne lagti hai jisse ek reletive bolti hai
Relative:- Dekhiye Esmita jii humne to dekh liya apni bahut ko sir me chadane ke natije kaise bigad gayi hai vo.....
Tabhi aadvik vahan se gujar raha tha...
Aadvik:- Koi baat nahi aapki Bahu to khud se bigadi lekin main apni bahu ko khud bigadunga Apni beti Banakar.
Itna sunte hi un sabka muh ban jata hai jisse vo log ab jaldi se vahan khana pina khakar apne apne ghar chale jaate hai
At other side
