Anish's Pov

Anisha finally came down with Ankita. Ankita's eyes were swollen and red. I think she has cried full night. Anisha's eyes were also red but it was for may be she didn't sleep for the night. After all sister has a very soft heart and she cannot see anyone crying, but had she not caught this scoundrel that night, he would've raped Ankita, the poor girl could not even resist him. Anisha and I were players so we have good body fitness and strength but the poor girl would have ended her life after that incident. Anisha narrated the full incident in front of the Panchayat (village council). The village council, after many discussions, finally came to a decision and said, "Lalaji ko Ankita se punarvivah karna hoga!" (Lalaji will have to remarry Ankita!) I got angry and went towards the worship room took vermilion in my hand, rushed towards her and put the vermilion on her head. The people of the village came to attack me except Dadiji, Shailaja Aunty and Amar Uncle, but Anisha, Jazz, Amit, Harry and Bhuvi Bhaiya stood in front of Ankita and me. They started fighting while Ankita was crying, and I was trying to console her. The village council cooled the environment and said, "Ab iss ladke ko Hindu dharmanusar Ankita se vivah krna hoga!" (Now this boy has to marry Ankita following Hindu rituals.) The people of the village respected the decision of the council and went back to their homes. Dadiji handed over Lalaji to the police. Mom and Dad astonished as they did not expect that I would do something like that. Ankita was standing like a statue. Shailaja Aunty said, "Zaroor chhori ke picchle janam koi achhe karm rahe honge isliye aisa samajhdar pati mila, puri zindagi pari h chhori ki, Itni hi dua karu hoon ki chhori khush rehwe!" (The girl must have done some good deeds in past life so she got such an understanding husband, she has her full life left, I just pray that the girl stays happy.) Dadiji said, "Haan Shailaja bohot dukh jhel liye iss chhori ne!" (She has suffered enough.) Dad came to me and said, "I'm proud of you Anish, you did the most correct thing today, you've saved the girl from being married to that scoundrel, also proud of you Anisha as you saved the girl from being raped and Amit, Harry, Jazz and Bhuvan you people have always been just great, I love all of you!" We all shared a group hug with Dad and Mom. Anisha pulled Ankita along with her. Mom came to me and said, "Are you sure you want to marry now?" I said, "Mom it was the only way to save that poor girl, so I did it and now I can't back out! And the main thing is I fell for her since the very first day I met her, it was a love at first sight." Mom said, "That's cool!" Mom went to Dadiji and said, "Humei kharidari krni hai shadi ke liye toh hum Jaipur jaenge ek din ke liye!" (We need go for shopping for the marriage, so we need to go to Jaipur for that.) Dadiji nodded. Ankita suddenly bowed down and touch my feet, I jumped and said, "Ye kya kar rhi ho?" (What are you doing?) She said, "Aap mhare liye kisi devta se kam nhi ho aur upar se mere pati ho!" (You're not less than a God to me, and you are also my Husband.) I also bowed down to touch her feet, but she said, "Ye kya kar rhe h aap?" (What are you doing?) I said, "Tum meri patni ho!" (You are my wife!) Dadiji said, "Pati pair nhi chhoote patni ke!" (Husbands don't touch the feet of their wives) and she laughed it off. Dad said, "Maji ye sab purani baatein hai humlog ye sab nhi mante na hi apne bacho ko sikhaye hai!" (These all are stereo typed we don't believe all this nor we taught any of this to our children!) Shailaja Aunty by this time took Ankita with her and dressed her up in a beautiful lehenga and came down with her. 

She was looking beautiful. I've always wanted Ankita to be dressed like other girls of Rajasthan and today she was looking most beautiful as and when compared to them. Suddenly I had a feeling that Ankita was never asked for her decision. So I went to her and said, "Ankita tumko kisine nhi puchha, kya tum sach mei ye shadi krna chahti ho? Agar tumhari marzi nhi hui toh hum shadi nhi krenge!" (Ankita no one asked you? Do you really want to marry me? If you're not interested we won't marry then.) She said, "Aapne mujhe ek nayi zindagi di hai, mei agar shadi ke liye taiyyar na hoti toh aapke pair kyu chhuti?" (You gave me a new life, if I was not agreed to get married to you then why would I touch your feet?) I said, "Dadaji, Mom, Dad, Amar Uncle and Shailaja Aunty Aapki ijazat ho toh?" (Grandmother, Mom, Dad, Amar Uncle, Shailaja Aunty May I?) I hugged Ankita tightly, all of them laughed at me. Ankita said, "Kya kar rhe hai sab log hai yaha pe!" (What are you doing everyone is here!)

Anisha's Pov

I was astonished to look Ankita like this. She was looking so beautiful. The day passed like this. We enjoyed a lot with Ankita's family. The next day we went to Jaipur with Ankita's family. We did our shopping. Anish wanted to marry in Maharashtrian style as we were from Mumbai though we were actually Bengalis. We did a lot of shopping. We reached the home by evening. After that tomorrow is Mehendi and tomorrow evening will be Sangeet and day after tomorrow Anish is going to get married with the love of his life. Actually if your love is pure then always true love wins whatever the situation is. Anish and Ankita were blushing profusely. And we all were joking with them.
