Mannat & Messenger
Diya could not keep mum the next morningas she readied to go to college
She did a spinning move in the livingroom and told Naina
“Dee yeh waali step?”
“Kidhar naachne ja rahi ho tum?”
Dadi furrowed her brows and askedcuriously
“Harshu Bhayya ki engagement par”
“KAUN naach raha hai?”
“HUM SAB”
Anubha did a face palm in the kitchen
She was running late
“Akash go pull her inside” she hissed
Akash was arranging a breakfast tray forhis parents
“I wont be home for dinner, after myclass is over main team dinner karke will get home by midnight”
“Mere liye kuch lao yaar… banks mein itnimasti kyon nahi hoti”
“Amma has made tons of sweet at Savita’s…kanastar aaye hain kal… 4 of them”
“I am interested in what you will eat” he got handsy
“Really? Abhi Ma hai ghar par”
Suddenly I am supposed to act like I amunmarried?”
“Pehle Amma mujhe cabaret ya belly dancersamajhti hain, I cant let u frisk me” she laughed
“Suno, do u think we should ask Viveka tobring Abhishek?”
“Kyon?”
“Amma ka mooh band ho jaayega”
“What if he doesn’t want to” “He is alsoa SJW like her, atleast she is related, but if he sees how your sister parties…he might dump Viveka”
He burst out laughing
“I feel bad we are not paying her anyattention”
“I know… she is the least problematic”
“I hope Abhishek sees her dancing andrealizes how multi talented he is and wants to marry her in the same mandap asHarshu Varsha
“did u know your sister did a (H & V )squared? Like Saifeena and such?
“SAHI MEIN?”
“Haan kal raat ko bheja usne mujhe shehas actually employed an artist to draft the design
“Haan bhai paise waale hain
Harsha, Varsha… yeh dekho” Anubha stuckher phone under his nose
“Wowww” he gasped
“You think Abhishek will want to marryher?” she leaned on the counter anda sked him softly
Seeing her husband’s nephew get marriedwith such pomp and fare was a bit saddening to her, it raised her insecurities
“I HOPE he does” Akash mumbled pouringout the chai
“Sigh!” she groaned
“It would be SO exciting if it happens, Ican tell your mother DEKHO Viveka duffer nahi hai, usey bhi koi pasand aa higaya”
“Mannat karte hain” he mumbled taking hismother’s tray out first
There was a lot of argument over WHY thegirls should dance and how could they and why they are not upholding familyvalues
Viveka was long gone by then
A couple days later…….She wanted Naina toshow up at Bua’s so they could practice in one of the large empty rooms in Bua’shouse being prepped for the newly weds
They were going to rehearse the steps
Well Viveka was going to create them andNaina and her would practice it
She even picked up the two external phonespeakers to blast it in the room
Bua was thrilled Viveka was going todance, she gossiped on one hand and on the other she wanted the girls toexercise every freedom
The house was teeming with her Thursdaykitty group
The girls practiced for two hours
Viveka with her mauve Bengal cotton sareetucked up into her hip and her pallu wrapped around her waist
Her hair in a high knot, she had tuckedher glasses in it so she wouldn’t forget
Harshu was basking in all the attention
Some of his friends were hanging out too
Naina and Viveka joked about how he willuse every opportunity to play hokey and he cant be blamed if he is caught withhis pants down with Varsha
“He is a ache ghar ka ladka he wont dothat s---” Viveka whispered
As the two girls sat on the floorgiggling
There was no AC in the room yet
The fans were not enough, after dancingtwo hours straight
“I am hoping Inder gets here soon so Ican hang with him before we go home” Naina whispered
“PAGAL ho? DADI hain bahar”
“I can go upstairs dude”
“You are low key mad”
“I am texting him”
“I am going to go get water… did u see myglasses?”
Naina didn’t even look up
Viveka wandered around looking for it
“Ma will lecture me… 3rd pairlost this month”
“Nach gaana khatam?” Harshu laughedlounging with friends near a hallway
Most were not facing her
One she recognized
“Uff” she mumbled
He was there to review some papers Harshahad drafted, Harsha no longer wanted to be a johri
The Parashar boys had rubbed off on himhe wanted to do some “Corporate job”
All the Raanav consult of the last fewmonths had been about buying into some BPO in NOIDA
“I took half day off you betterappreciate it!”
“Kaun sa gaana hai?”
“Please chillao mat” she whispered as thefriends scattered
“Mere kaan mein bol” he bend down
“Its Jiya Jale SRK waala… Dil Se”
“Ooohh..”
“Varsha shud dance too”
Harsha blushed
“Oh hoo”
He smacked her as she ran
“I lost my glasses yaar”
“Meri fiancé ke liye kaafi expensivesamaan aaya hai us par mat giriyo” he mocked
“I will make sure I crush them all
Bua was cackling about H&V squaredwhen she got to the kitchen area
“Lo aa gayi” she screeched
“Dekha Betoo aapne?”
“Bua its so cheesy” she mumbled
One of her friends giggled
“Cheesy hai to kya hua, aajkal to sabkarte hain”
“Ma jab iski hogi na shaadi yeh tattookarwayegi” Harshu yanked her tightly wound pallu
“I WILL NOT”
“Arey yaar hai 10 saal pehle? Yeh harnote book mein Veevirat” likh deti thi?”
OH MY GOD”
Did Bua just out me?”
She darted a side eye at Harshu’s friends
Most were not paying attention
“AREYYY HAAN” Harshu laughed hysterically
“Yep… I was into Virat Kohli… big whoop”Viveka filled a water bottle and bolted
Jesus!!!
She went to the practice room
No sign of Naina
There was an ache in the pit of her stomachif she was making out with Inder HERE she was SO DEAD
She picked up her phone from the floorand peered
She wandered the house looking for herglasses
“Did u see my glasses?” she asked Raanav,now in the living room
He tried to hide a smile
“I might have”
“Where?” she asked
He smiled
“Oh are u laughing about my Virat Kohlicrush?”
“Whoa?”
“U know Bua… over there… laughing at me”she said boldly
He smiled
“Oh? I didn’t pay attention”
“Good” she sighed
“If u see my glasses can u give it toBua? I have to go find my sister” she said
He walked up to her
“Why did u take it off?” he asked genuinelycurious
“Oh? Umm.. Naina and I were rehearsingfor the engagement dance”
“Who are u dancing with?” he asked
“Naina”
“Ah”
She looked the most unassuming andbeautiful
Her saree tucked in every nook of herbody, her hair in a messy bun
“Are you still dating Abhishek?” heasked grimly
“Yeah” she crinkled her eyes and lookedat him confused “Why?”
“He is a”
“Don’t say it… forget I asked Why…” shesmiled calmly
“You don’t want to know”
“Your yardstick for measuring people isnever going to match mine” “So one of us is always going to come short” shesaid softly leaning on the wall
“This is not about measuring”
“I like him he likes me… he is notwealthy nor is he related to you” she sighed
“Eh”
“that should be enough shudnt it?” shesaid calmly
He looked gorgeous she thought, tho tired(he had returned from Singapore at 4 PM), even his casual plane attire was high end and classy
“You are shooting the messenger”
“I am not, the messenger has an agenda”
“The fact that I am in love with you?” he asked slllowly
So he is? Huh?
Wow!!
Umm..
She felt breathless again
“No you don’t like people that are not wealthy” she said weakly
“I might know where your glasses are” he said quietly as they gazed at each other interminably
“Oh?” her face lit up
He reached and pulled it out of her messy bun unraveling her luscious joora
She grabbed it without looking at him and walked away denying him yet another thank you
The missing thank yous are adding up Ms Veev Mathur ! And be rest assured when the time comes, the hisaab will be taken in compound interest 😀😀
Raanav...a piece of advice... much as you want to engage with her brilliant mind and are busy reading journals to play catch up, do take lessons from R&B and get down to business !!!
Maybe invest in a Monet to get the ball rolling 😊😊
You have already grown larger than an atom in her head and are a well kept secret too....so get her out of the ‘ Parasher kid ‘ mode !!
The engagement would be a good time to show her that ! And she is an accomplished dancer...show her your dance moves dude !! 😁😁
Can’t wait for engagement. Finally she had started to notice him.
Succulent Sarcasm
He generated more than a sensory awarenessfrom that afternoon
She went looking for Naina who wasupstairs laying on her belly in her grandparents room and cooing to Inder, shequickly switched to audio call
“Chaloooo” Viveka ordered frantically
“KYA HUA?” Naina sat up
“Umm.. nothing… weve been here 4 hours, Iam hungry”
“Umm.. dude this is BUA’s house remember? She doesn’t have a job like Mum, she had 10 helpers, go eat downstairs”
“Is that your sister?”
“Yeah the nerd…. She wants to go back home to eat”
She heard him laugh
“see even he is confused” Naina laughed
“Chaloo Naina I am done” Viveka paced the room parting the curtains a bit to peek outside
He was outside talking to Harsha
“OK” she turned and walked inside quickly
“OK you are seriously freaking me out!”Naina sat up and looked out the window
“Its nothing” Viveka mumbled “I am leaving, ask Bua to give you a ride”
“OK bye” Naina settled in
“Will you massage my feet?” she cooed
“I need to see it first”
“GAWDD!!” Viveka ran as fast as she could
Smiling politely at Bua’s ladies mandli as they left too
“Ruk jaa betaaa khaake chali ja”
“No Bua…” she mumbled not making eye contact
“SUNO madam…” Harsha was near the portico
“Kya hua?”
“Ho gaya rehearsal?”
“Yeah for one song”
“Doosra bhi hai?”
“Hmm” she nodded
Her pallu was still tucked her leather bag on her shoulder
She always brought it in when she parked on the street
“Bag lekar kyon aayi?”
“U know after the break in two years ago…they can cut my arm and legs off but I need my research” she laughed hugging her bag
Raanav looked up from his phone to smile
“I didn’t mean that literally” she nodded
“She is like a saleswoman…. Never leaves home without that bag”
“Naina kidhar hai?”
“Uff! She didn’t want to go” “Oopar hai”she scowled
And suddenly as an after thought her eyeslit up as she hugged her brother
“Chal theek hai main chhod doonga” hehugged and squeezed her arm protectively assuring he wont send her home withadriver
“She cant seem to get off the phonetalking with Inder Dhamija” she said and looked at Raanav and smiled sweetly, goading him
His jaw literally dropped at that provocation “Oh is THAT how we are going to play this now?” his heart racing ather direct shot.
She was going to sock him in the face…yep!
“Inder this… Inder that… Inder Inder” she chuckled biting her lower lip to control a giggle walking away pushing her glasses up her nose
Harsha laughed not understanding the jibe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“You would think with all the money they have they wouldn’t have to put their nieces on stage to dance” Smrita cackled showing Satyen a WhatsApp video Savita had sent her of the girls rehearsing
“Arey bhai Khushi ka mauka hai”
“Isnt that the nerdy one? Is she going to dance with her glasses on?” Smrita was relentless
Raanav sat there sipping some sparkling drink
“You think she shouldn’t?”
“Arey bhai unki Ma us din hamey keh rahinthi she is going to do her Ph D” smriti rolled her eyes “Ab dekho full ondancing”
“Multi talented ladki hai bhai… fearless…“ Satyen sighed
“Kyon fearless?” Smrita was pissed
“Aaj ki date mein 50 year old women don’tgo anywhere near a saree… she wears sarees for everyday life, and tucks it likethat and dances” “tareef ki baat hai”
“Hamare yahan gidda is se achha naachleti hain” channeling her “Dhamija” Punjabi roots
“She is shredding it Smrita” Satyen shruggedcoolly
“Aaj kal to sab Youtube dekhkar… I cant even… at my boys’ wedding I am getting an A lister to dance”
“Kalyani ka dil tootega”
“absolutely not she wont… she is a Parashar… not some middle class nobody”
“Arent you happy your mother not only makes policy for this house also for Chachu’s?” Satyen mocked her
“I see that!!” he chuckled gently roasting his Mom
“Oh please… we share the same ideas… don’tbecome like Dad…. He has no sense of what his stature is” smriti got up haughtily
“Sunoooo aapka naam kya hai?” she waved to a help that had worked atleast 10 years in the house
“Jee Ma’am Lakshman”
“Smritaaa” Satyen admonished her from behind
“Achha please aap Raanav ke liye kuch laayen” she said walking away
She loved to make decisions for everyone and everything…
Game on! It's kinda becoming a game and She's starting to boss him getting a tad too comfortable with him. Either that or she's warming up to him to the extent of being a bully even .
You don't say thank you s to people With whom you have a sense of comfort/ trust. It's a compliment to Raanav actually. 😛
It's temporal flirting even. Raanav's not entirely wrong ! She's shooting the messenger alright !😛
