Pride & Prej with a twist - Page 66

Anu is so sure she will win the bet and Abhishek is the one for her daughter. Like most mothers, she is feeling the pressure of having grown up daughters who are not married. People always question that.

Yep, Trump has this in the bank! Its OVER

Liberal media is being childish and not reporting it. Biden ran the worst campaign possible. We cannot blame Trump 1% for this one

The coasts are blue but the flyover country is RED. Liberals are too arrogant to acknowledge them. Hillary famously called them "deplorables".

Nobody wants open borders. Democrats have not supported immigration reform. Neither did they call out the looting and rioting after George Floyd, they even encouraged it in my neighboring states OR WA and CA

The sheer arrogance of the Democratic establishment to force Biden down my throat and force the utterly corrupt amoral person like Kamala down my throat 😕caused them this defeat, she beeped with a married California Gov when she was 29 so she could get the Attorney General job

If we as Dems hold Republicans to high standards we should do it to OURSELVES too👏

Thats so true Nisha... lot of my desi friends were like ohh Kamala is a Desi way to go blah blah . Puhleese she never acknowledge her desi roots up untill now and for her speeches on India 😡 I personally would have preferred Andrew Cuomo or even our Cali governor....

Aaj kisi argument mein mat padho Parashar ke bet eke saath… kya naam hai uska?” Akash rubbed his eyes removinghis glasses

hahaha poor parents have no clue about whats happening with their Bachcha

She did not answer, Anu was sure she loved Abhishek she absolutely did not notice her daughter turning a bright red

☺️ so sweet I can almost picture her hope these things can happen in real life too. usually Men don't realize what they need, they keep going after shiny objects and later complain that why these girls dont lub them and how they easily get bored.... Just my random thoughts no offence to any one😲

You have got to be kidding me!! Then there's a special pooja conducted for her to win back home where her so called roots are supposed to be!

I want to stay neutral, even apolitical but pos articles , posts and Twitter handles like these makes me cringe!

exactly she never even cared about being a desi.... I don't usually engage in politics but this makes me mad.... matlab seriously are we daft... 🤬

Nishas world is much more better

Kalpana

SHE is a scam artist of the highest order, a combination of Sonia Modi and laloo and Jayalalitha and Karunanidhi she is

Utterly corrupt and soulless

THIS is the best the Democratic Party could give to us

Shameful!!

The story of a net worth of 30000 to 20 million dollars from 2009 to 2019. That's Biden's story.

And they ask for 5 dollars from each one of us for his fight ....

Nancy pelosi has to direct just of her decimals wealth for this fight and that would be enough !!!!

Where's the soul! I agree with you!!

I agree Trump is foul mouthed but speaks the truth. I hope he raises a stink uses everything in his power to hang on to the WH. Tab aayega maza Dems ko for destroying Bernie second time in a row

There's so much hate spewed on him, not that he is an angel, but his optics are so pathetic.

Nonetheless it's baffling to me that elections can be decided on just optics or lack of it alone. So much for literacy and democracy. How can liberal media be so pathetic that it invests even for bots like Alexa to be biased savagely against one guy .

There's so much hate that people here fester within their heart for others . It's so unhealthy . If there was an index meter to calculate the hate that people harbor for others within , without expressing it outside till it reaches monumental proportions, US would top the meter not just in coronavirus but also the negative emotional health quotient.

Also watch out for your 401 k savings guys! Those of us who are nearing our 50's . It's going , gone gone every year for the next four... Park it elsewhere if you can!!

Chhaap Tilak

No Parashar attended, she danced, and laterchanged into her old rose crepe saree with a silver beaded border blouse, quitebackless and a square neckline upfront

Naina danced deflated as well, the twinsenjoyed all the attention though

There were at least 50 20 somethings

Akash was watching them hawkishly as theytried to flirt up men some even 10 years older

They refused wear traditional and wore dressesinstead

“Tumhe bhi dress pehan leni thi” Anuwhispered

“WHY Ma…?”

“Just saying”

She was worried her MIL would take onelook and begin harassing her

She was older than Varsha by choice buther MIL took it as “ badi dikhti hai abhi shaadi bhi nahi hui dekho”

“Aaj to contacts pehen leti?” Anu moaned

“You are trying to set me up I think, butlet me tell you Abhishek is here”

He was in the midst of some young peopletalking animatedly, what she believed was Social Work topics

Wrong forum ironically

And with young people? He was indeedbrave

Viveka looked at him from across thebanquet hall

If he was “hers” then how would it be?She imagined

Its not like I could try on a series ofmen and then decide which one’s life would look good on me?”

She laughed to herself at that thought,walking through a high end luxury store selling guys

She looked at Varsha and wondered if sheever wanted what Varsha had gotten, poised to be married to a johri family witha freakishly large extended family.

“She could probably never “try on”Asthanas would disown her”

“My parents would disown Naina for eventhinking that”

“Kis soch mein lagey ho beta?” Akashtapped her shoulder

“Oh… just thinking if we could try on menlike we try on clothes” she laughed

“RADICAL IDEA” I raise a toast “

“Whether I want it or not is secondaryPapa, you know try it on like shoes”

Father and daughter got a good laugh outof it

“Akash ke saath kyon nahi ho”

“Oh Papa we hung out… he loved my dancehe said he even recorded it” she smiled looking fondly at him trying to showpictures on his phone

“He is a show off” Akash muttered

“can u imagine Berkeley Papa?”

“Haan bhai hum to imagine kar sakte hain…AAP dekh aana uske saath”

“I am so tired… my legs are killing me”

“Roz nacho theek feel karogey” he huggedher warmly

“Dadi ke saamne kehkar dekhen aap”

“Jao bulao”

“WHERE was she when we danced?”

“Cringing some place and cursing I bet”he laughed

“Akash chaliye KHAATE hain” Anu walkedback to them

“Aur tum beta?”

“Umm… I am going to go hang with my DOOD”

“Chalo jao”

“You guys look ADORABLE” Anubha did thatfinger necklace thing

Akash laughed

“Laalchi kahin ki” he laughed wrapping anarm around her shoulder

Viveka turned toward them

“Yeah I would Papa in a heart beat… a guy like you… you arestill so besotted”

That word reminded her of the man thatsaid it to her

“Too busy probably” a sharp stab ofirritation poked her when she realized he wasn’t there to watch her dance

She had scanned visually to see if he wasaround, she had even lined up a few taunts about middle class girls dancingtheir way into a wealthy man’s heart but… nope!!

“I wish someone shows him the video and Iget to stab him with my taunt…. Sorry Papa”

She saw Naina appear faraway anddisappear in a flash

“Huh?”

She walked over to Abhishek

“Umm.. mere pair mein kaafi dard hai do uwant to go find a quiet spot?” she rubbed his elbow suggestively

“Oh yeah… I can wear the titillation costumeI am not a dork” she smiled to herself

He turned to look at her, his eyesglancing down the plunging neckline

“Uff” she moaned when she realized herphone was beeping

It was Papa “If u see the twins tell themI will chop their fingers off if they even think of anything”

“Actually I WAS” she sent a ROFL

“Sorry sorry beta” he apologized

“Ek second… ja room dekh aata hoon”Abhishek promised, planting a kiss on her bare shoulder

“Scoreeee” she celebrated

He was interesting for sure, its OK if heis not dressed or looks like an Adonis… he looks and acts like a Maharashtriannerd

She wrapped an arm around his waist andpretended to be a couple

“This is great right? Yeah… I am with aman”

She giggled… not paying a word ofattention to what he was gushing to the group about

He kissed under her ear again andwhispered “5 min sorry” he whispered

“Uff” “K” she nodded pushing her glassesup

Undiscovered Raanav Parashar wasrepresenting his family, solo, opened the heavy door adorned with roses afterbeing greeted by young girls bearingsilver trays with sweets and rose water

he saw the bend he saw the peck behindthe ear

She weaved her way out of the banquethall toward the freezing open corridor leading toward the rooms on the left

It was a luxury hotel, the hallways weremarble and still as a frozen river

She walked down one hallway and turnedaround she did not know where she was

She turned back and walked back towardthe hall, and turned left texting Naina

“Better not be hooking up”

“Did already” she sent an eggplant

“Ufffff” Viveka paused put one hand on herhip and rubbed her forehead with her phone hand

She leaned on the icy marble wall andbegan typing furiously

Saw a guest approach, she just sawimpeccable shoes and let her eyes wander gathering her scolding thots… and metthe face, he looked gorg, in grey dress pants and a white shirt… probably theone he modeled… free ka maal she thought… and a crimson tie

Parashar kid!!

“Ufff” she looked down at her phone justtyping acting like he was not approaching

Something about Naina triggered her

“late to the party?” she askedsarcastically

“What did I miss?” he paused not smiling

“Oh just the engagement”

“This early?” he checked his expensivenon smart watch

“Its 11” she smiled

“I just saw them on stage…” he scoffed

The stage concept was very nouveau riche,the truly wealthy just mingled among the guests

“Nice” she smiled

As he let his eyes rove over her

“I saw Piyush on stage, is he gettingengaged? Economies of scale as they say?” he flashed his perfect smile

“Oh that only applies to the unwashedmasses…(poking herself with her thumb) not to the ultra wealthy…. They spendbillions on every wedding” she smiled jabbing him

“The reason for the ad hominem self attackwould be?” he muttered

“saving some energy for you and your Momperhaps?” she smiled

“And why are we talking about her?” hisjaw clenched

She had no idea

She just wanted to… she was not prone toerratic behavior… ever

“I am sorry that was uncalled for” shewaved her phone not saying that she was about to yell at Naina, pushed herglasses up “Ufff” she exclaimed “I am just tired from dancing” she blew a longlabored breath… puffing up her cheeks , ashamed of herself,

“You danced?!!”

“Yep” she smiled composing herselfcompletely, returning to her sagely mature self in seconds “Too busy to show upfor scheduled network programming” she chuckled, to imply she she did notexpect him

“Not too busy to catch a couple kissing though”he said quietly

She didn’t want to meet his gaze she did

“I cannot be mean to him because YOU …..she begged “I am dating him”

“He is a slimy…” he paused as a couplepassed by

“Why should I believe you? Because yourDad pays his Baba’s salary?”

“Correction my DAD doesn’t… the companydoes” he bit slowly

“Oh you are suddenly turning into aservant leader? Socialist?”

Abhishek’s text popped “Yaar mujhe thodatime lagega tu rest karle phir aaja”

“I happen to LIKE him” she shouted… herface flushed and glowing from all the dancing energy, her sister was a pain inthe a--, she was hurt and heartbroken

“And I DON’T” he said coolly, they heldthe gaze

Caterers opened the heavy double doors topush out a large basket of flowers and bouquets

The semi professional singer inside was whipping the crowd into a frenzy with

“Chhaap tilak sab chheeni”

Khusro Baaji Prem Ki Khusrau,
