Aj Sab yahan itnay khush kun bethay hain?" Guddan asked in a surprising tone.

" aj  is ghar mn jashan type scene hota hai " laxmi chirped 

" kun? Kisi ka birthday hai?"

" kisi ka nahi, Antara maji ka birthday hai." Durga intervene with a smile.

" aj  AJ khud Sara khana banatay hain and hum Sab mil kar khatay hain. Yad hai sarru maaji ko dry fruits kitnay pasand thay.AJ hamesha dalna bhool jatay hain magar aj  main n yad  dila diya tha." Durga pleasantly passes on information.

" ohhh! " guddan was astonished.

" itni muhabbat koi kisi se karta hai kia!" She could only think

By roaming here and there for sometime, she slipped into kitchen . laxmi was about to stop her but, durga signal her to keep quite. " didi, AJ ko koi is waqt kitchen main nahi pasand." Laxmi reminded her. " tabhi us guddan ko janay diya hai." Durga smiled.

...

Akshat sensed that something is unusual in kitchen .he lift up his head, and found the reason.there she was , sitting on the counter , her legs crossed and eyes widened.

Akshat took a deep breath. " isko aj  hi kitchen k darshan karnay hain. Wese 2 haftay se  kitchen ki shikal bhi nahi Dekhi hogi." He thought.

" dekho guddan..." He was about to complete his sentence but, as usual guddan didnt listen.

" dekh hi to rahi hoon  jab se apko." Akshat raised his brow.

" mera MATLAB yeh  Jo ap karrahay hain. Kia mazay se ap sabziyan kaat rahay hain. KHATAKAT!!!

Kese sekha ap ne  yeh? Kahan se seekha? Main apki help karun? "

Akshat couldnot bear any more.he left the kitchen.

"Aray yeh kahan gayay! Yeh  kia ban raha hai?" Out of curiosity, she lift the lid and a sweet smell hit her nostrils. " aray wahhh ! Halwaaa" she take a spoon and it taste heavenly.

" yummm! Ap ne bhi partner is uncle ko kitna bhi khadoos banaya ho, hath main lajawab zaiqa ( taste) diya hai. Kia ghazab ka halwa hai!!! " she wanted to take more but, stopped." 1 minute, is main dry fruits dalna bhool gaye. Chalo  koi nahi main dal deti hun." She pour the the bowl of crushed dry fruits and mix it well in halwa.

" yeh lo paise, driver bahar khara hai .jahan bolo GI woh wahan lejayega." Akshat handed over money.

" magar main apki help.." Guddan tried to protest. 

" yehi meri  help hogi.tum yahan rahogi to mujh se kam nahi hoga so please mjhay  sukoon s kam karnay do.khana khanay ajana." Akshat burst out in anger.

Guddan eyes filled with tears.she left the kitchen without saying anything to him.she run towards towards her room and akshat started to complete his remaining work.at the door, the 3 devils, congratulate each other on their victory.

" wah didi wah! Kia idea tha!" Sarru complemented durga.

" abhi to sirf trailer tha, maza to table par ayega" she added.

...

All family members were seated for dinner when dadi inquired " saru bahu, guddan ko bula lo." 

Akshat didn't utter a word. He couldn't get rid from her teary eyes from the moment he had scolded her.

" dadi woh so rahi hain." Sarru informed.

" magar..." 

" maa hum  Khana shru karain " akshat intervene.

Everyone was enjoying the dinner and yet again, akshat only had halwa in his bowl. He never eat anything else first.

" wah akshat wah! Kia halwa hai. Tum hamesha meri birthday par isi s khanay ki shruwat karana meri" antara words echoed in his ears.  He started to take spoons.the three devils were waiting for the moment and it finally came.

Akshat started to cough and as time passes , he started to become red. His hands started itching and he sneezed in every second. 

" lallla ! Yeh Kaise..." 

" dadi yeh to AJ ko dry fruits se allergy k symptoms hain" durga announced.

" magar AJ kabhi yeh nahi daltay" laxmi added " antara maaji ko bhi to nahi pasand the jab se  AJ ki allergy ka pata chala tha" 

Akshat couldn't breathe properly.his condition was getting worse.

" ap log aese hi discussion karti rahayngi ya koi mujhay dawai bhi LA kar dega " akshat roared.

" ji AJ. Main ..." Durga said but she was stopped 

" rehnay dijyay. Main khud lelunga" akshat get up, sneezing and rubbing himself, and in midway, he found her, all surprised.

Guddan saw his eyes. They were red. She couldn't believe these 3 can stoop to this level. Akshat crossed her and went to his room.

" dadi yeh!" Guddan inquired.

" lalla ko allergy hai." 

" yeh sahi kese hongay?"

" yeh to abhi shruwat hai. Ab AJ ko bukhar charhay ga, phir sar  dard ,phr khujli, gala kharab, phr ja kar 2-3 din main sahi hongay." Durga responded.

" AJ yeh galti khud se kar hi nahi saktay. Zaror kisi aur ne  kya hai. AJ apni tabiyat k lye to maaf kardain gay magar maji ki birthday Jo kharab hui..."

Guddan became restless.

" mar gayi guddan tuuu. Aglay saal yeh uncle antara ka birthday aur  tera deathday sath manayay ga"
