Chapter 3 - Nivi and Divya had gone up to the terrace after having a snack with Nantara Dadi and Hemlata. The girls loved to hang out on the terrace. Feeling the breeze of the wind against their skin. Nivi and Divya had sat on the bench swing that was there. They both smiled at the memory of how they had gotten it.
Flashback:
It was 3 years ago. Nivi and Divya had gone with some friends to an antique shop across town. At that time Nivi loved to collect antiques and Divya had promised Nivi that she would take her to the best antique shop in town when they went out. Nivi could hardly believe her eyes. "So many beautiful things!" Nivi was thinking. She wanted them all. Then Nivi's eyes landed on it. A beautiful bench swing. It looked really old, but also tip top shape. Nivi walked up to it and admired every detail. She looked back at Divya and noticed that she too was admiring it. "Nivi this is so beautiful. It would be so great to have this on our terrace and just relaxing." "I know Di. Can we get it?" Divya seemed in thought then smiled at Nivi. "OK! Lets get it." Nivi and Divya were so excited.
When Divya and Nivi arrived home they were so happy. When they went inside, they noticed that Pratap and Keshav were sitting in tension. Nantarta Dadi and Hemlata were standing and also seemed in some sort of tension. The girls smile faded and were getting worried as to what could be the matter. They walked up to where everyone were at and tried to find out what happened. "Papa, bade papa, what happened? Why are you guys so tensed?" Everyone looked up at Divya and then at Nivi. Keshav signaled Pratap to speak. Pratap nodded. "Divya beta, your bade papa got a call at the office from the credit card company stating that the card that he gave you this morning has maxed out." Nivi and Divya got really nervous. They knew that the bench swing that they bought was really expensive, but they didn't think that it would be a problem. "Well papa, actually what happened was that Nivi and I saw a beautiful bench swing at the antique shop that..." "ENOUGH!" Nivi and Divya got scared hearing Pratap yell. He usually never yells at them. Tears were forming in Nivi's eyes. "Enough...you girls are becoming too spoiled. Just because we have money and give you girls a credit card, does not mean that you go and buy whatever your heart desires. Money does not grow on trees. And those credit cards are to be used only for university expenses and emergencies." "b.b.b.u.u.t p.pa.pa" Pratap signals Divya to stop with his hand.
"I said enough. The bench swing is going back, both of your credit cards will be taken away for a month, and you girls come straight home after your classes and go straight to the university till further notice." Nivi and Divya looked at Pratap in shock and both had tears coming out of their eyes.
Pratap had sent Yash and Aditya to go and return the swing and after Pratap took the girls credit cards, he left with Keshav. The girls with tears in their eyes looked toward Nantara Dadi and Hemlata, hoping to receive some consolation, but they just gave them a look of disappointment and went back to their work. Nivi and Divya feeling really sad, walked up the stairs to their rooms.
Over the next few days, Nivi and Divya had been down in the dumps (not literally😆). They woke up, got ready and went to the university, came home, went to their rooms, and stayed there. They didn't talk to anyone, forgotten to smile, and never ate anything. Nantara Dadi was getting really worried. They don't even run up to her and hug her when they come home like they always used to. Nantara Dadi told Pratap and Keshav her concern and they became concerned themselves for the girls. They said that they would do something.
The next day when the girls came home from the university, they saw that everyone was again gathered. Nivi and Divya got nervous, hoping they have not done anything again.
Pratap called Nivi and Divya to follow them. Nivi and Divya were hesitant at first, but followed them upstairs to the terrace. When Nivi and Divya got outside, they could not believe their eyes. A huge smile appeared on their face and their eyes were sparkling with excitement. It was their bench swing. They ran to it and laughing sat on it. Everyone were so happy seeing their smile return. Pratap and Keshav put a hand on their girls' head. "We have all really missed your laughter. This home does not seem like home when we don't hear our girls voices and laughters. Sorry beta that we hurt you so much." Nivi and Divya hugged their dads...
Present:
Nivi and Divya were woken from their flashback hearing a car horn...actually a couple of car horns. Someone was really impatient. They got up and looked around to see where the horn was coming from. They noticed that it was at their new neighbors house. Someone was sitting in a white 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302. He got out and ran into the house after honking the horn for a couple of minutes. Neither Nivi nor Divya got a clear view of him. They noticed that he was wearing a white jacket over a red top and blue jeans. Nivi felt a little strange after seeing him. She did not understand what it was that she was feeling. It was something like familiarity. Like as if he was not a stranger, but someone close. What was this?
After a couple of minutes he came out of the house and this time pulling someone along with him. The other guy was wearing a black tee-shirt and blue jeans. Nivi was trying to get a clear look of the first guys face but before she could he sat in the car and they drove off.
"Strange..." Nivi looked at Divya. "What Di?" "Huhh..." Divya looked at Nivi jumping out of her thoughts. "Oh...um...nothing Nivi." Nivi was wondering what Divya was hiding. And she knew that Divya was hiding something. But what?
Later that evening, Nantara Dadi had called down Nivi and Divya saying that they should go with them to greet the new neighbors. Nivi and Divya without a doubt were eager themselves to meet the new neighbors. So they went. Getting to their house they rang the door bell. They heard a sound from inside, someone saying "I've got it." A girl opened the door. She smiled looking at everyone and they smiled back. "Hello beta. We are your neighbors, we noticed that you all moved in today so we thought that we would come and welcome all of you to the neighborhood." The girls smile deepened. "Hello Aunty. Please come in. Everyone would be so happy to meet all of you." They all went in and closed the door. "Sorry for the mess. Actually we still are not done unpacking everything and putting it in its place." "Its ok beta we understand." "Please sit, I will call the others." she motioned them toward the couches. "Dada Sahib, Dadi Ma, Mom, Chachi ji, Bayi, come..." Everyone had come and greeted each other. Nivi and Divya noticed that Sanika's (the girl that had opened the door) brother was the same guy that they had seen earlier today being pulled by the other person. It turned out that they had just moved from Shimla, India. Since they were expanding their business out here in Vancouver they all decided to move out here. Dadi was really happy to hear that they were from Shimla and Nivi and Divya knew why. Their family also was from Shimla. They had moved out here just a year before Divya was born. It was starting to get late so Nivi, Divya, and Dadi decided to go. On their way out Nivi slipped and in fear of the fall and the pain that was going to come with it, she closed her eyes shut. She felt two strong arms around her waist supporting her. Knowing that she will not fall. She slowly opened her eyes. And there he was. Nivi's heart began to race looking into those brown eyes of his. His face was only inches away from her's. They were both in a transe. Looking into each other's eyes. Exchanging silent words that only their hearts could hear and understand. They stayed in that same position for a while not noticing that everyone else was watching them. They were in their own little world, the outside world was forgotten by them...
