[4] : A Clash of Realities

Aarav"Ab mai batata hoon,ki iss non-stop bolne wali ladki se meri shaadi kaise pakki hui. Aur tum log ready ho jao, kyunki yeh kahani tabhi toh shuru hoti hai jab do alag duniyaayein ek dusre se milti hain."

(Translation: "Now, let me tell you how I ended up with this incessantly talkative girl in my fixed marriage. And get ready, because a story begins when two different worlds collide.")

....FLASHBACK....

Aarav's phone buzzed with an unexpected urgency, and he glanced at the screen to find "Dada ji" flashing across it. The mere sight of the call left him slightly unsettled; Dada ji rarely called during office hours. Finishing his work promptly, Aarav rushed home, a sense of foreboding gnawing at him.

Arriving at the Khanna mansion, he entered the living room to find an atmosphere thick with tension. His father, Arjun Khanna, sat with a stern expression, with Riya sitting beside him, his mischievous sister, who now looked unusually grave. Even Dada ji wore a serious demeanor, a rare occurrence that hinted at something significant.

Aarav

"Dada ji, what's going on? This urgency is unusual."

"Riya, why do you look so serious? What's happening?"

"Dad, is everything alright?"

Dadu Khanna:"Beta, sit down. We need to talk about something important, something that concerns you."

Dadu Khanna:"Beta, kuch dino pehle mai Raghav se milne gaya tha. Hum dono ne milke ek naya faisla liya hai. Humne socha hai ki is khandaani dushmani ko ab khatam karenge. Rishtedaari mein badal kar, humein lagta hai ki tumhari aur Raghav ke poti Kiara ke beech ki shaadi, hamare parivaar aur companies dono ke liye ek naya dor kholega. Is naye rishte se humari dushmani bhi khatam hogi, aur hamare parivaar aur businesses ka future bhi sudhar jayega. Aur haan, beta, tumhari shaadi ka waqt bhi ho gaya hai. Hum chahte hain ki tum apni zindagi ka agla kadam is sundar aur samajhdar ladki ke saath uthao. Tumhare liye Kiara se better koi aur nahi"

(Translation: "Son, after meeting Dadu Kapoor, we have come to a new decision. We believe it's time to end this age-old family feud. By turning it into a relationship, we think that a marriage between you and Kiara, Raghav Kapoor's granddaughter, will open a new chapter for our families and businesses. This fresh alliance will not only put an end to our enmity but also improve the future of our families and businesses. And yes, son, it's time for you to take the next step in your life with this beautiful and intelligent girl. You won't find a better match than Kiara.")

Something similar takes place in the Kapoor Mansion.

Kiara Kapoor's Perspective:

On the other side of the city, Kiara received a similar call from her Dadu. The urgency in his voice prompted her to conclude her work swiftly and head home. The Kapoor family, usually a lively bunch, sat in the living room, their expressions mirroring the gravity of the situation.

As Kiara entered, her eyes met her father's stern gaze. Meera, her mother, sat with a furrowed brow, and her oldern brother, Aryan, usually brimming with energy, looked unusually subdued. The atmosphere hinted at a storm brewing beneath the surface.

Kiara

"Dadu, this sudden call has me worried. What's the matter?"

"Aryan, why the long face? What's happening at home?"

"Papa, why is everyone so serious ? What's going on?"

Dadu Kapoor:"Kiara, please have a seat. We need to discuss something crucial related to you."

Dadu kapoor explained his meeting with Dadu Khanna to Kiara.

In support of Dadu's decision, both Aarav's and Kiara's fathers expressed their agreement, understanding the potential for unity and prosperity through the proposed marriage.

Kiara and Aarav in Unison(with somekind of telepathy,as they are in their respective homes): "What? Marriage? This can't be happening!"

Aarav (Coldly and Calmly): "I'm sorry, but this is not something I can agree to."

Kiara (Laughs Aloud and Refuses): "Marriage? Hahaha! No way, absolutely not happening."


Aarav's Mother (Persuasively): "Beta, yeh ek naya mukaam hai hamare parivaar ke liye. Tumhein bhi is rishte ko samajhna chahiye."

(Translation: "Son, this is a new opportunity for our family. You should try to understand the significance of this alliance.")

Kiara's Mother (Softly): "Kiara, yeh hamare liye achha hoga. Tum dono ek dusre ko samajhne ka mauka paoge."

(Translation: "Kiara, this will be good for us. It's a chance for both of you to get to know each other.")

Aarav:" I don't want to get married now."

Declining with a determined tone, Aarav left the room.

Dadu Khanna (Determined): "I know how to make him agree to meet Kiara. Leave it to me; I'll handle this situation."

With a determined glint in his eyes, Dadu Khanna expressed confidence in his ability to convince Aarav to meet Kiara.

Meanwhile in Khanna Mansion...

Arjun (In Shock and Supportive): "What?! This is unbelievable! I stand by my sister on this. If Kiara doesn't want this, she won't marry him. Her choice should is what matters."

Arjun, visibly shocked, stood by Kiara, expressing his support for his younger sister's reaction.

Dadu Kapoor (Persuading): "Kiara, at least meet him once. We're not forcing you into anything. If you don't like him, you can say no. But give it a chance, beta."

Dadu Kapoor, in a gentle tone, tried to persuade Kiara, urging her to meet Aarav and keep an open mind before making a final decision.

Kiara (In Dilemma): "I... I need some time to think. Please, I'll let you know."

Caught in a whirlwind of emotions, Kiara expressed her need for time to contemplate the situation. With that, she left the room, leaving her family in anticipation.

Author:" As the family room witnessed a temporary lull in discussions, Dadu Khanna, with an unwavering determination, hatched a plan to persuade Aarav. Meanwhile, the air was thick with anticipation as Kiara found herself caught in the crossroads of tradition and personal choice. The looming question remained: Would Dadu Khanna's plan bring about a change of heart in Aarav, and what decision would Kiara ultimately make about meeting her destined partner? The tale of these intertwined destinies unfolded, with uncertainty lingering in the air."
