***********************************
In Sameer Rathod's house.
From last 50 minutes Sameer was hiding in a dark place and listening to the grumbling of that furious tigress..upps elephant and his eyes were following the pacing foots to & fro in front of his eyes. He was just paying for subsiding her rage. He knew it's his fault, he should remember about tomorrow's house inauguration puja which is delayed only because of his late arrival, and he promised her that he'll do all the preparations.
He mentally cursed himself and his two cute monsters who added fuel to her moms grudge and made her explode like a volcano. That too only because he didn't agree to take them for icecream after dinner. Otherwise it would be a beautiful night in their new house...arranging interiors for tomorrow's occasion. Aab kisko pata tha ki chota sa nok jhok uss badmashon ki kaaran itna khatarnaak baan jayega!! Aisha is right! Those kids are monsters!
But now the matter making him vexed is Aisha...she still didn't take her medicines..and she is very excited now...he was praying it doesn't increase her blood pressure.
He still can remember that day she got injured during a shootout. She just joined the field after they had babies, and he was equally excited to have his best sidekick back. She coordinates well in such operations well, as if she could read his mind. But little he knew, it was her last field day with him. She was shot in the process of saving another officer and fell from first floor of that under-construction site. That injury put her into a tug of life & death, though she survived, it made her unfit for the field, and her internal injuries just added some fuel to a sharp change in her physiology due to her previous pregnancy issues, & her inheriting diabetes. She become obase, has breathing problem & high BP. He always tried to keep her happy & tension free. But being the master of his household, she always have an upper hand on every single matter, and he also didn't upset her. He knows she still misses her working days.
His chain of thought was broken as the cover over his head was shaken up a little, she sat on it and was talking to someone.
Aisha : Haan Roshni..bolo...Sam? yehi hain...bacchon ki bed ke neche chupa hain...haan usko mujhse jo bachna hain...aaj agar haat aagaya toh iska khair nahi...kya samajh rakha hain mujhe? Biwi hoon toh sab kuch main akele karun..aur who maharaja aaram farmayen?...haan haan...dekho na...kal puja hain..aur iss bewkoof Rathod ne koi preparation nahi ki...unki dimmag se nikal gaya...aare ek hi toh kaam dia tha...nahi karna tha toh bol deta main karr leti...lekin nahi..aapni galati maanega toh ego hurt hota hain na!!..aaj sare akad nikal dungi...aab kya karun! Jahan uss chuhe ne ghusa hain wahan mere haat nahi paunchte...tujhe pata hain na utna main jhuk nahi sakti!...accha Rosh...yahen accha bed kahan milta hain?...nahi soch rahi thi ki yeh kamina toh aaj bahar aane se rahe...jump marke bed tod doon..kaal Sid ke liye naya bed laa dungi...kya maaf kar doon..bilkul nahi!! Aaj yeh rahega ya main..bhulne ka vi haad hota hain...aaj mare baat bulne laga hain, kal kya pata mujhe hi bhool jaye! Main phele jaise khubsurat nahi rahi...moti ho gayee hoon na..aur inke looks main toh ek dent vi nahi laaga!!
Rathod took the opportunity and sneaked out from his hiding place, before Aisha could realise, he made off to another room.
Aisha : Arre! Sameer Rathod!! Aaj toh tum gaye...(to Rosh) Tu phone rakh! Main uss gadhe ko dekhti hoon!
And Again a round of chasing begun.& Rathod kids were enjoying it, sitting on dining table, with munching potato chips.
Rathod : Aisha..bohot ho gaya! Now calm down and take some rest..you didn't even took your medicines yet!!
Aisha threw Sids football to him which he ducked successfully.
Rathod : Dekha! Aab tum miss vi karr rahi ho!
And Riddi's teddy hit his face.
Aisha : aaj main tumko nahi chorungi!
Rathod : Main toh tumhara hoon jaanu! Jo karna hain karlo!
Aisha : Toh baagta kyun hain! Rokh!
Rathod : Paayar se bolo..toh rukh jaungi..
Aisha : Tere pyaar ki...
After some minutes Rathod again hid under Riddima's bed and Aisha was standing in front of it, panting.
Aisha : Sameer ki bacche! Bahar Aa!!
Kid : Hum dono bahar hi toh hain, mom! Bed ke neeche toh dad hain!
Aisha : shut up!..jaake aapna kaam karo! Sameer!..bahar niklo...(she was breathing heavily)
Rid : Mom, Dad aaj bahar nahi aayga...
Sid : Tum aram se baitho...aur nazar rakho..( he pulled his chair for his mom)
Rathod : Aisha ke liye paani le aao Rid..aur medicine box vi.
Rid understood what her dad meant and she rushed, while Sid was patting Aisha's back.
Sid : Mom...we were just mocking ...aur tum serious ho gaye...be a sport na!!
Aisha : Toh avi tak toh wahi karr rahi thi...playing hide & seek...but I took this game seriously! Yeh harr bar nahi chalega...main akeli kitna karun??
Rathod : (from under the bed) Sorry na jaan...but I've promised that I'll do it, so I'll do it. Puja sham ko hain...main subha sab arrange karr dunga...tum chinta matt karo...
Aisha : Kaise na karun..tum toh kal vi office jaoge na!!
Sam : (came out and knelt in front of her) nahi jaunga...I've already told them...(Rid came with medicines) tum medicine lelo...aur rest karo... subha jaldhi uthna hain na!!
He made Aisha take her medicines and supported her to their room, but he signaled the kids to hit the sack silently.
Aisha : ( turned to children) Devils! Koi masti nahi...
Rathod : Haan...haan...nahi karega..tum chalo.
****************************
Next evening.
All gathered in Rathod's place for puja, Arjun & Rosh were helping Sameer & Aisha in preparations, while children were playing around.
Guests arrived and Aisha told Rid to call his dad for Puja, she rushed and suddenly bumped with Addu, their head toasted. But this time Rid as in hurry, so she just ignored and sprinted to hr dad. Addu rushed behind her for his second toast.
Rid : Dad!..com mom is asking for you...(tugged his hand).
Rathod : Arre..easy girl!...you go, I'll join..
Rid : Nop! Mom asked me to bring you with me..nahi toh baton main lag jaoge..chalo...
Rathod : ( took her in his arms) ok! Chalo!
Addu was looking for his opportunity. He must hit his head with her or else they both would have horns! He looked at the glass indo and tried to imagine himself with a horn, that idea terrified him. But Roshni pulled him to sit with her in puja. So he had to drop it for a moment. However he was looking for his opportunity, putting a tab on Rid's movement.
As the puja finished and Roshni made him eat his bit of sacrament, he again started stalking Rid, and searching for his opportunity. And he found one after dinner while their parents were busy talking to each other and kids were eating icecream. He kept his icecream bowl aside, hopped down from the couch and moved to Rid, she looked at him quizzically.
Rid : kya hain?
Addu just grabbed hr head and hit with his. Rid screamed in pain and at Addu's surprise attack. Her icecream spilled on her & Addu's cloths. Roshni hurriedly reached them and grabbed Addu by ear.
Roshni : Yeh kya badtammezi hain Addu!! Oh vi ladki ke saath! Tujhe toh main dekh lungi aab..ghar chal!
Aisha : (Grabbed Roshni's hand) Are chor do..baccha hain...unke beech main hume nahi padni..
Roshni : Nahi...masti ke baat aur misbehave alag ... agar Sid se ladai hoto toh main chup rahti..but Rid...avi se ladkion ke saath misbehave karr raha hain..bara hoke...
Aisha : Kuch nahi karega...tu chor usko.
On the other hand Arjun & Sameer was consoling Rid.
Arjun : (rubbing her temple) Lagi toh nahi na beta...
Rathod : tum andhe ho rawte? Dekho kitna laal ho gaya...
Arjun : Haan...tuh ice pack le aa..khara kyun hain?
Sid : Zaroorat nahi hain, uncle..isko kuch nahi hua.
Rathod : Chup karr! Tu vai hain iska...
Sid : Isiliye pata hain..kitna laaga aur kitna apki rajkumari ne cheekha!...itne se laagne pe koi rota hain!! ..Adi se zorse toh main maarta hoon, tab toh nahi roti!!
Rid : Toh kya karoon...icecream se meri dress kharab ho gayee na...
Sid : Dekho dad !! shuru ho gayee beauty queen ka nakhra!! Maine kaha tha na...
Arjun : Accha thik hain...Aisha..Rid ko dekhlo..tab tak main aapna shaitaan ko dekh leta hoon.
Aisha : Lekin daantna matt...
Rathod : Main yehi hoon..tum jao.
Arjun : (grabbed Addu and looked into his eyes) Addu, no kidding...seedha puch raha hoon..toh seedha answer do..aisa kyun kia?
Addu : (calmly) Zarori tha..isiliye.
Arjun : accha! Aisa kounsi zaroori baat hain jo tu usko itni zor se maara...
Addu : Nahi maarta toh shing nikal aata na!(pointing at his forehead) yahan se!!!
Rathod : Beta..aise takrane se Singh nahi nikalte...insaan ko tho bilkul nahi aate...
Addu : But mujhe Rid ne bataya..aur Aisha Aunty vi...
Rathod : (grumbled) Yeh Aisha vi na!! (to Addu)Beta...Aunty ne woh sirf Sid-Rid ke liye bola...woh dono special case hain na!!
Addu : accha!!
Rathod pulled the little Rawte in his arms.
Rathod : haan...dono twins hain na..toh un dono main chalta hain...aab mom k saath jao aur chang karlo..thik hain!
Roshni : Tum dono aur tumhara logics...ajeeb ho...(she took Addu home)!!
Arjun : Sam yeh kya tha? Bacchon main superstitions daal raha hain!!
Rathod : Karna padta hain yaar... dono ninja warrior mere ghar pe aa gaya...toh un dono ko control karne ka yehi sabse accha tarika hain... Idea Aisha ka hi hain...and it works!! Dono bro-sis ka scuffles apas main hi khatam ho jaata hain... nahi toh dono ko handle karna bohot mushkil ho jaata!
**************************
In late night. Arjun's place.
Roshni made Addu sleep in his bed and returned to her room, she found Arjun standing near the window, staring outside.
Roshni : Addu so gaya Arjun..aab tum vi so jao...you have office...
Her words trailed off as Arjun hugged her tight.
Roshni : Kya baat hain? Aaj bada payaar aa raha hain!!
Arjun : Kyun! oh toh roz aata hain na!!
Roshni : Hmm...but aaj kuch jyada lag raha hain...khush ho na??
