Prologue
"Mom, stop yelling at me, I did not do anything wrong" yelled thirteen years old prakriti
"And why should I believe you, give one reason to me" asked kriya in an angered tone
"Because I did not do anything wrong, I went to ranvir's house to give him a book not to attend a party" replied prakriti
"Then why didn't you give the book and come back" enquired kriya
"I was pulled in and I was not enjoying, I gave the book and came out, that's it." Explained prakriti in a rude manner
"You are grounded for a week and will not enter ranvir's house ever again."
Commanded kriya
"What!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mom what's wrong with you, I don't understand why cant you ever trust me, I tell about everything, I told you about ranvir's party and you still don't trust me. I think that's my biggest mistake, I should not be so open and frank with you." Screamed prakriti in frustration
"let me tell you one thing prakriti singhania, once more you talk to me like that or even hide anything from me, you shall see my worst side."
"As if I don't already" shouted prakriti and stormed her way into her room
There was one person sitting on the couch in the family room witnessing this unhealthy argument of the mother and daughter. Kriya looked towards her and sat beside her. She none other than Sharon raiprakash; Reyaansh singhania's cousin and favourite sister, who just arrived from London two days ago.
"I don't know what to do or say to her, why can't she ever understand me sharon, whatever I do is for her good." Sobbed kriya
"She must be thinking the same thing. She is in her teens now bhabi, you know how its going to be for her, you have gone through it, you have seen me go through it, its rough, just be careful with her and try to understand her." said the sharon in a calm tone
"I'm her mother Sharon and I defiantly would not want her to get into trouble, I want to understand her but I can't. I don't even know how to explain it to her. She is too young to understand." Said kriya
"I know, but what you did was not right either, you grounded her for a week without her making a mistake, that wrong and insane, you knew that she did not go into the party, you knew she was innocent, then why bhabi?" Asked Sharon
"That boy, ranvir was arrested once for drunk driving, he also was a drug addict of what I heard, I don't know whether its true or not, I just want to be careful." Replied kriya
"What, I mean how did you get to know about this, did you tell riti(prakriti) about it, does rey know." Asked a shocked Sharon
"yup, both of them know everything, it was who riti told me about this." Answered kriya
"Then why are you upset, she knows everything about him and will be careful. Knowing her, she herself must be disgusted with this fact. She is a smart kid."
"She is a smart kid but she is not experienced, she won't know the dangers she will face even if she is in his proximity. I tried hard to explain and I think she understood, but the problem is her age, she might think she is safe and careful but in reality is not. And her crushes, she seems to like every other guy in town."
"Crushes like who, ranbir kapoor, rob pattison, who does not crush on them, even I do" sharon said and earned a glare in return.
"Okay, fine, I get your point; I will explain it to her personally."
"I being her mother could not, I wonder what different technique you are going to approach" kriya said
"bhabi, leave it to me, I'm here for a month more, I'll get her on the right path I promise, now stop worrying and wipe your tears." Sharon said with a smile and walked towards riti's room.
"Hey kiddo" Sharon chirped as she walked into prakriti's room and sat beside her.
"hi bua, I'm sorry, you just came two days ago, got up from your jet lag and had to witness this fight." Riti said feeling guilty.
"Hey chill, it's alright, but what's wrong with you, I mean you and back answering, rude behaviour with your mom, its so not you"
"You were a polite and a sweet kid, what is the matter now?"
"I don't know bua, I'm getting angry quite fast these days and mom, and she is getting crazy and making me crazy. I don't know what's wrong with her, she's become overprotective. Anyways you won't understand, no one will, not even dad" riti sighed as she replied
"Why do you think that" Sharon asked surprised
"Because your not my age" riti replied as a matter of fact
"I'm just 14 years older than you my dear and you've shared everything with me then why not now"
"I think your right bua but we still have 14 year gap"
"Right now, I think that I know how you feel, because I went through the same, anyways I think I need to tell you a story, my own story to help you understand better." Sharon smiled and replied
"Understand my parents, thanks but no thanks, I don't want to hear anything, I don't want to understand them."
"No one even asked you to, just listen it will help you to understand yourself, its not a story with a moral, its just a memory, a short love story." Said Sharon without losing her temper
"Really!!!!!!!
I'm in for it, so start." Commanded riti
