On a more sober note , the game of Monopoly is going to come out with new board and the manufacturers are replacing some of the tokens with new ones.They are outcasting the boot, the wheel and the timble tokens. I always used to go for playing the timble bell as my favorite game token and my daughter went for the boot as her coin. Last summer Sundays too our choice of tokens for play were the same. Now monopoly is set to relaunch with new tokens. Feel bad for the loss of Timble. It's like parting with my favorite childhood memory. Monopoly won't be the same anymore

The tale would run for 10 threads if not more😉 from the way it has unfolded. The male Shanbagh could be the prodigal elder son. His action destroyed Narang senior and was the trigger of misery for both families...the reason for the demise of his mother. Unless proven guilty all characters are in varied shades of grey

SV...Your take on the story seems quite plausible !! ties up all loose ends nicely ! But I have noticed that Nisha's version in the end never ever matches with anything or any option that a reader has voiced. More the reason to speculate ??!

And ten updates or ten threads, the story has managed to catch the attention of us readers. I still hanker for my ID, but beggars cannot be choosers 😃

Okay thinking on what do we have here

Connecting the dots...

Something happened 10 yrs bk around the same time shanbag bar had to be closed and later renamed itself as yeh and yang. Two, the first of the sons left after a fight with Aanu. It did not function as a bar from then on. The mom never recovered . This is on the shanbag side of things.

On the Narang side , Its something Ashvin did , I think in ullal that upset quite a few ppl including his parents and his mom hopes that he would be forgiven for , because she doesn't believe that it was his fault in the first place. She believes his career was ruined and the grandfather disinherited him. The hero almost felt apologetic after saying something about stoned touristers in a small town earlier in the first or second update. He is angry at his mom for reminding him abt that time. More,he is also saying he's not going to load his gun angry every time he comes across that name .Did he do the unthinkable and Did he load his gun 10 yrs bk for some reason after being similarly stoned. And more importantly the guy is drinking soda and sprite now.

Now Trisha comes to the konkan meeting to Ashvin's room, paused at something that she seems to recognize and familiar with. And she has a lot of grief abt what happened 10 yrs bk. In retrospective , I think she was a whole lot nervous and hesitant in that meeting mentioning Mangalore and the restaurant when there was no recognition on his face of the name ...waiting in fear perhaps for some kind if recognition dawning in Ashvins face !!!!!

May be Mandira's Narang is not entirely wrong in suspecting the motive of Ms. Shanbag!!!!And Trisha's tryst with cuisine craft was may be more than just to smell the Nescaf/ coffee!!!!!

Nisha... oh my!!!! it's all in the plot already me thinks and you have been truly burning it here with all your killer almost invisible moves.

Whatever the game plan is , this wave has got us wading and sputtering in all directions . Bring it on!!!!!

Sand clock

"There is no reason to believe she is coming after me" Ashvin said in a tone that was unconvincing even to his own ears.

"You must be naive" his mother shook her head in disbelief

Her phone rang.

It was her father in law

"How are you?" he asked in signature style with no greeting

"If its about wanting to know if Ashvin is ready to marry and has found a suitable girl, then no" she panted as she sprinted to her own bedroom

"Aap naraaz jyaada rendey ho beta" he said derisively

"We dont seem to be talking about anything else Dad" she said apalled

"Mujhe uski fiqar hai" he said

"If that were true, then he would be treated like a equal" she teared up

"You are wasting your emotions. He is a smart kid. He does not need my money" he said firmly

"The other kids are dumb?" she asked furiously

"They are managing the operations." he said cryptically neither admitting bequeathing wealth nor denying it

"Mere dost ki poti hai, baat karengi aap unse?" he asked

She was really in no mood to talk right now

Especially wedding talk

Thats all he seemed to care about the last 6 months or so

"Dad I am a lil busy right now" he claimed

"To unse karwayen baat" he said
"You want to talk to ASHVIN?" she was stunned

"Umm... maybe not" he grunted...
Nobody spoke for a few minutes

"Rajat Mehra ki daughter hai aap jaanti hain" he began

"Vishwas didnt like Rajat" she played the husband card

"Vishwas hated nobody beta" Sharnbir was horrified

"He might not have told you but as a wife I know" she said smugly

"Anyway I want you to meet the girl, she is returning from Vancouver in a month" he said

"I dont even control my daughter Dad, how can I ask Ashvin to offer himself up for an arranged marriage?" she asked frustrated

"Yeh baat aap hamey beesiyon dafe keh chuke ho" he was not amused

She peeked out he was in the balcony slounched, on his phone drinking water

"Dad he just returned from work, I dont stay in Bangalore much. Let me have dinner with my son" she begged

"Jao jee" he said haughtily "talk to him"

"I wont talk about marrying your pick or... (mine)" she left out "mine". Ofcourse she was on the hunt for a family wealthier than Narangs for her Ashvin

"I want to see him married"

"Not all of his cousins are married" she was outraged and upset now. "Vikas bhayya aur Vipul bhayya ke dono ke ek ek ladkon ki shaadi pending hai"

"He is different. He proved it didnt he?" Sharanbir was not interested in arguing.

"We cannot throw it on his face for ever Dad. Even his Dad, YOUR SON, Vishwas forgave him" she was begging now

"Uh" he listened tearing up, but not showing it.

"You disinherited him already, please dont suck all life out of him" she begged

Sharanbir knew that the temptation of being reinstated into the will will make Mandira do anything.
While outwardly she wanted her son's freedom

Deep down the wealth offer lured her immensely.

Outside in the balcony... he was Googling her again

There was a Google, on the third page he found an old Flickr page with her name,
She looked gorgeous... walking down Ullal beach in a long tiered cotton skirt.. her glasses sprayed with sea water, she was holding sand in her cupped palms
It trickled down in a slim drip.

In another she was sideways leaning under a palm tree grinning, her arms slipped under a a boy? man? man's arms, leaning on his shoulder as she smiled

He looked young...

He closed out the search page disgusted with himself at violating some random stranger's privacy.

His mind reassuring him that he did nothing wrong...
