Poker & Plea
"Well its not money" she said
"f**k!!" he cursed inaudibly, fondling under her sweater
"Stop it, kozhandaigal irukka" (kids are here) she whispered, sidling up to him, pasting herself on him like wrap
He managed to get one palm up a curve on top... she pressed his palm between his chest and hers "Stop it!" she went on her toes and nipped his lobe
He cupped and held, bending down on her shoulder
"What do u want?" he asked gruffly, letting his fingers feel the lace, she was fuller and firmer, and warmer... he aroused himself with a couple strokes
"If u stop I will speak" she smiled humorlessly
Ranjan walked in... "AYYYO" II whimpered
Holding his watch clad wrist on her belly hiding behind him
R&B didnt turn, he let II who was facing Ranjan now, speak
"Beta... aagaye sab?" Ranjan smiled
"Chithi is gross she kissed chithapa"
"Aaj jeeta kaun?" Ranjan changed the topic, after clearing his throat multiple times, unable to hide a smile
II yanked her husband's hand out and stepped back hitting the back counter
"Dad pao bhaji khaayenge?" she called out "Po ingendu nee, go sit down and eat" she hissed
He lingered like a 5 year old that returned from school and wanted to wrao himself around his "Mommy's leg"
"what did u eat at lunch?" she asked
"French fries and a chicken tikka burger" he smiled
"How is that enough?" she demanded
"Khana kya bana hai gudiya?" Ranjan asked
As his son blocked his DIL
"Dad sirf bhaji banayi, he said I shud make home made pao in the bread maker but I didnt make the dough this morning, I didnt wake until Noon... so sorry, woh hai aur chocolate burrito, " she explained
"Wah jee wah, chaliye jee pehle choc khilayin puttar"
YESSS Thatha can I also have that first"
"Hore ki?" Ranjan nodded
"Go wash up... u have grass stains" she cooed
He crept up
"I have to toast paav kanna" she whispered
He smiled at the endearment
She stopped and froze when she realized
AYYYO!!!
THANK GOD HE CANT LOOK AT ME NOW
ARGHHH!!!
"Or sit on the counter" she ordered
He sat on the counter, she began toasting on the ginormous rectangle tava, that had 4 flame burning underneath
Mahavir had neatly buttered and set many dozens in a large crystal bowl... she began toasting deflty
"Bhabhiji aap nahi khayiyega?" Mahavir chimed
"Maine bhi wohi pooocha" R&b nodded
Mahavir smiled... "Yeh sabko hi khilayen hain par khud nahi khaati"
"bhayya main do moochhen kha chuki" she explained waving the steel spatula
Mahavir smiled sheepishly
"Moosh? kya kahiyega?" he asked
MOO-SSS, MOOO-SSS" she taught
He nodded
She turned to R&B... DONT LAUGH" she ordered
Fed the kids FIL and hubby
The kids ate like they had never seen food before
Tan stopped by to pick them up
She fed him
"Chal pahunch jao" he ordered
"Poker?" II squealed upset
"Haan, sab aa rahe hain... u two or all the women can play or can bitch and gossip, or drool over some hot naked men" Tan offered
"I dont like pokerrr" she whined
R&B just watched amused
"Arey!! Yeh Batra tradition hai... ek to Iyer ladki laaya, na sharab na jua, ab iska patha band mat karwa meri bharitya naari" Tan scolded
"I dont care what he plays... I dont want to play poker" she shouted
"dad" Tan begged
"Kuch aur khelo puttar" Ranjan muttered
"Khelo matlab? Dad aap bhi chal rahe hain"
"Agar gudiya nahi khelegi to main vi nahi" he said
"Dad no one wants to play... what is that? Minima? BACHE khelte hain woh" Tan ridiculed her
"Thats FINE... mock me all u want... agar minima nahi to main nahi mera miya bhi nahi" she ordered waving a finger
Tan laughed hysterically
"Yeh world poker champion hai... minima khilake maar dalegi sach mein" he was irritated
"I dont care for poker... EK TO KHATAM NAHI HOTA... I mean 3 AM? 5 AM? 7 AM, DAS phone karo tab bhi banda ghar nahi aata" II complained
"Chal 10 baje subah pakka aa jaayega" Tan promised
"TENNN? IS IS VERY LATE" II cried
"Bol na yaar" Tan begged nudging R&B
"II"
"U go play poker and u"
"Sleep in the dog house or couch?" Tan offered
"Dono nahi... he can have his bed I am going to D II" II said gleefully
"Yaar... please... mazaak nahi" Tan begged
"Aapki biwi so jaati hain... I dont know the other women"
"says the woman that talks to cabin crew on planes and adds them to her FB" Tan mocked her
"I ONLY ADDED THAT ONE BECAUSE SHE WAS IN MY COLLEGE" II shrieked
R&B did a "Shhh" and plugged his ears...
She picked up a cushion and smacked him
The boys were long gone... playing outside with water...
"Ayyo... the back glass was replaced today, the glue is not dry" II panicked as the boys ran crazily on the North side,
the wall in the kitchen by the dining table was all glass, 30 feet of glass windows and doors, offering views of the
beautiful backyard the Savvy's hand painted wooden herb boxes,
elaborate water features, and miles and miles of rose bushes and expensive flowering plants... one boy slid on the tile... sliding on his butt... firing his water gun
Tan walked out and calmed them down
II followed
II called out Mahavir "Bhayya woh caution tape lagakar gaye na, kidhar hai?" she wondered
"Hum soche 4 ghante ho gaye?" Mahavir whined
"Nahi nahi please laga denge? ya mujhe batayen?" she asked
Ranjan smiled... exhaling contentedly.. he was reminded of Savvy and Harish's kids and his playing in the backyard
Savvy worrying... for all of them
"What do u want?" R&B asked
Tan was outside caught in the cross fire of two water guns
"Will you go to DII one extra night?"
He looked startled
"Its an Iyer tradition, the groom stays over, and the Iyer Deepavali is on Tuesday, Nov 10th, Amma ne Sunday night bulaya hai,
for two nights" II looked at him, eager, sincere, and wishful...
