Translation for Part 35
Anjali is stupefied upon tasting the halwa.
Anjali: Chhotey..this tastes... just like maa's halwa!
Arnav(smiles): I told u so!
Anjali: How... how is it possible? How can the food made by 2 people can taste.. so similar.. How.? I cant believe this!
She closes the tiffin.
Arnav: What happened di?Eat it naa..
Anjali: No Chhotey.I just wanted to taste it,which I just did. Lets take the remaining halwa home.
Arnav(confused): Y?
Anjali: Nani,mamaji,mamiji.. I want all of them to taste it. Nani.. nani will b so happy to taste this halwa! She also loved jauzi halwa... at one point of time..
Khushi(turning to look her): Really di?
Arnav(scolds): Khushi look in front! U can talk to di even without looking at her!
Khushi: Ya,fine.Dont worry.. I wont hurt u both or ur beloved car!
Arnav makes a face.
Khushi(without turning back): Naniji also likes this?
Anjali: She used to.. back then,when mamma used to make this. After that.. no one even mentioned it in r house..
Anjali wipes her eyes.
Arnav: Di,r u alright?
Anjali nods.
********
Just then her phone rings.
Anjali: Chhotey,1 minute,hold this.. and hold t straight..
She hands the tiffin & spoon to Arnav.
Anjali: Hello..(pause)Ya Rakshit,tell me..
Khushi smiles.
Anjali:Ya,we're on r way home.(pause)What?(pause) I cant hear u..(pause) Hello?(pause)Shall I call u after reaching home?(pause) Ya.Bye!
As soon as she ends the call,Khushi starts teasing her.
Khushi: Wow di! No sooner did ur marriage get fixed than u switched over from Rakshitji to... Rakshit!
Anjali blushes.
Arnav(sarcastically): Everyone is not like u,Khushi ji! U r stuck on Arnavji even after 3 months post r marriage!
Anjali(smacks his arm): Chhotey!
Arnav: What di? I'm tired of hearing my name with a ji!
Khushi: If that is the case,I'll stop calling u Arnavji from today! I'll only call u by ur name,henceforth!
Arnav: Really?
Khushi: Yes,Lard governer!
Anjali(shakes her head): U both will never change! BTW Chhotey, did u.. talk to Rakshit?
Arnav: Yes,I did,di.
Anjali: So...?
Arnav: So what..?
Anjali: How did u.. find him?
Khushi(teases): Him...!
Anjali(blushes): I meant.. Rakshit.. how did u find Rakshit?
Arnav: Di,he's a nice person. I'm happy that u've got sucha nice life partner!
He puts his arm around Anjali's shoulder.
Anjali rests her head on his chest,relieved.
Anjali: I was so scared,wondering whether my Chhotey liked his jijaji or not?
Arnav: Di,theres nothing to b scared of,okay?
Anjali: Okay! Since u didnt talk to me this morning,I have been wondering about all this. Wondering how Chhotey would have reacted upon recieving this piece of news? Is he happy or sad?
She looks at him with questioning eyes.
Anjali: Tell me the truth,u r happy with my marriage,r u not Chhotey?
Arnav doesnt say anything.
Anjali: I hope u dont hav any problem with it,hmm?
Arnav is still quiet.
Anjali: What happened?Y r u so quiet?Tell me..
Khushi(thinks): Arnavji needs to b stopped.Else di will b sad after hearing what he has to say..
Khushi: a.. no di,he's just..
Arnav(sternly): Khushi,I will handle it..
Khushi decides to shut her mouth.
Anjali: R u... not happy with my marriage, Chhotey?
Arnav: No di..I wasnt happy at all when I first heard about ur marriage getting fixed.. Not bcoz I dont want u to settle down,but bcoz I dont want u to leave me..
He looks away.
Arnav: I became selfish & kept thinking only bout myself.. Since u've been staying with me since so many years... May b thats y..
Anjali keeps her hand on his head.
Anjali: I understand..
Arnav(facing her): But di,Khushi explained everything to me and..
Anjali: And?
Arnav: Now I.. dont hav any issues with ur marriage!
Anjali heaves a sigh of relief.
Arnav(holds her hand in his): Di u'll come to meet me after getting married,wont u? I hope u wont forget ur Chhotey after ur marriage..
Anjali: Mad or what?I can never ever forget my Chhotey! I will definitely come to meet u & u also come to meet me at my place! In fact, do u know what Rakshit told me?
Arnav(hopeful): What?
Anjali: That he'll take me to Delhi in the last weekend of every month,so that I can spend the last few days of every month with u all!
Arnav is disappointed,but he doesnt show it.
Arnav: Great!
Anjali: Apart from that,I'll stay in touch with u throug the phone.I'll call u daily,ok?Arnav: No di,only talking wont b enough.I'm gifting u a laptop so that will help us to chat face to face..
Anjali: No,no Chhotey,I dont want a laptop!
Arnav: Y di?
Anjali: I dont really.. know how to work on t and I dont like it either! And anyways, Rakshit has a laptop so we can chat face to face using that!
Arnav is all the more disappointed to hear that.
Anjali: I want something else from u...
Arnav: What?
Anjali: A bridal saree designed by u,which I would like to wear for my wedding!Arnav smiles.
Anjali: I've already told my MIL that she shouldnt bring the shaadi ka joda for me, coz I want to wear the joda designed by my Chhotey!
Khushi: Did she agree,di?
Anjali: Ya,she did! She told me to wear the saree she chose for thye moonh dikhai ceremony! And she also said that I must certainly wear the saree made by my brother,since its my wish,it must b fulfilled!
Khushi: Wow! She's so nice!
Anjali: She's really nice!
Khushi: How r the rest of ur in-laws?
Anjali: Theyre all very nice!The oldest is..
As Anjali & Khushi chat about her would-be in-laws,Arnav's mind is busy thinking about something else.
Arnav(thinks): If di's in-laws r really that nice,I'm sure thy wont hav a problem if I visit di once in every fortnight!
He smiles.
Arnav(thinks): That means,I will b able to meet di thrice every month-once when she will come home n twice when I ill visit her in-laws' home! Now that's great!
Anjali(pats his arm): Chhotey! What happened?
Arnav:a.. nothing di! Did u say something?
Anjali: I said,giv me the tiffin n lets go.
Arnav(confused): Where?
Anjali: Inside,where else? We're home!
Arnav looks around & realizes that they're at the car port of Raizada Mansion.
Anjali: U okay naa?
Arnav(smiles): Ya di,absolutely!(hands her the tiffin) U carry on,I'm coming in a moment.
Anjali: Alright.
*******
Arnav: Keys..
Khushi hands him the car keys & waits till he takes out Anjali's luggage from the boot of the SUV.
Arnav(closing the boot): Come..
Khushi: Listen..
Arnav: What?
Khushi: R u upset.. bcoz of what I did.. this evening?
Arnav: Yes
Khushi: Sorry,actually.. I..
Arnav: Khushi,we'll talk about it later.Right now,lets go in..
Khushi: But y later?I just..
Arnav(interrupts): Khushi,I'll leave to pick up everyone from buaji's house in a while. I want to hav a cup of coffee before that. So if I hav ur permission,can I go inside n hav a cuppa?
Khushi: Yy..yyess.. I..
Arnav leaves without hearing what she had to say.
Khushi: Now I will hv to wait until everyone leaves!
She sighs heavily.
Khushi: I dont understand,where did I go wrong?What hav I done,which has made Arnavji so upset? Was it wrong on my part to meet Lakshmiji ?Or was I wrong to think that everyone shouldnt b kept waiting at the airport? I want all the answers tonight!And after they all leave,I shall get all thes answers from Arnavji1
Anjali(from inside the house): Chhoti...!
Khushi: Coming di...!
She quickly goes inside the house.
