Pride & Prej with a twist - Page 97

I know iam tooooo... greedy

Can we get one update pls🙈🙈🙈

@coderlady

THANK YOU for that tip of posting on Wordpad first

It fixed all the muddled wording.

There is a reason for the breakup the next couple chapters it will come to light

Sudhi wanted a Raanav Viveka chapter I might write that today, during the day

What the heck... its the day before Thanksgiving, thodi masti kiya jaaye🥳

Raanav is such cutie. Sending flowers 💐

Don’t even know what to say about Naina. She was riding all high when she was dating Inder and wanted to double date now the family is not good. 😔 the parents had warned her. If Inder was serious he would ah e approach parents. Just like Raanav. Parents are in such a dilemma. They can’t be happy for one due to other kid.

Glad my tip was useful. Its a standby when you want to get rid of word formatting codes.

The way naina reacted the night when raanav came to drop viveka home and how she is behaving now is so funny to read🤣🤣🤣

Naina always had the belief that she is the most beautiful in family though she admires her sisters brain....In her mind, getting a rich and hot guy was easier for her than Veev... But now she lost the battle😅I was rofling when she said is he hitting on me? as she saw the flowers.... It didnt crossed her mind that raanav must b sending it for viveka.... May b bcz her father told it for her.Still such a thought need some extra self love🤣🤣

She was happy about viveka dating raanav when she had inder....But now she is emotionally blackmailing viveka😂😂

This is pretty cool, I love the plot and story line! Would it be nice to have an on going forum where a person will create a specific story and then others will need to continue.. A cool way to show off everybodys creativity and artistry when it comes to writing and story telling..

I don't think I can read about these characters in any other voice than Nisha's.

Nouf!

Pretty crazy right? I mean you said... spot on! She didnt care for Raanav until she had Inder now she doesnt want Veev to have Raanav because Inder dumped her

Yes a bit insecure

Raanav's proposal could not have come at a worse time

Naina feels entitled to tell Viveka what she should do about it

Tho she didnt ask Viveka ONCE before hooking up with him everywhere and anywhere

Sudhi

Thanks for the vote of confidence honey.... I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart

I agree... expressing "creativity" means, STARTING a story from scratch and building his/her own audience base from bottoms up...

NOT demanding someone else's idea, plot structure, storyline, and characters be handed over so "everyone gets a chance" to "express".

Off to write a chapter for you

Its snowing and nowhere to go...

Monarchy & Ma

“I don’t want to say I told you so… but you hardly knew him love”

“I cannot be cool and calculated like you… LOVE is when you feel swept away Veev” Naina sniffled

“Jaanti hoon.. I am not 80 yaar”

“Tum to spontaneous ho nahi… you are dating Abhsihek you never run away places”

Viveka could not answer that one

She had checked her phone many times this morning to see if Raanav had texted… everytime her phone pinged her heart skipped a beat, but it was not a text from him

“I don’t know… I am just not as bold” she said quietly

“I don’t know how I am going to be Veev… I hope I can get your comfort babe” Naina began to cry

“YOU HAVE IT bebu”

“I mean.. (sniffling) Just tell Ma Papa we don’t want anything to do with those Parashars… I hate them so much”

“I doubt Ma Papa even care for those people”

“They went to LUNCH Veev”

“I mean bulaya to jaayenge na”

Now her phone beeped

Viveka assumed it was her friends and did not get up from bed

Hours later after fixing lunch and begging with Naina to eat and running around the cleaning lady and after taking a nap when she went to her phone she found 10s of texts

Embedded within was one from him

“Can we do Sunday dinner instead of Sat?”

Holy heck!!!

She sat down and looked at it for a few

She either talks about it and says no

Or refuses to meet him and say no to everything

Meets him for dinner and says no

Yeah… meeting him for dinner and saying no is the best idea she decided🤣

She started to fix dinner between calls from the twins and Bua and papa

She called Raanav at 8ish after returning home

On the way from the Metro station

“Hi!”

“Hello Viveka”

“Umm..”

What was I going to say?” she thought for a second

“Did you have a good day?” he enquired

“Umm yeah…” she nodded fighting the dull ache

“Not good?” he could tell

“How do u know?” she asked genuinely surprised

“Do I” he gently put her at ease

“Umm.. I just have a headache”

“I am sorry”

“Kitni baarish hai roz… thak gayi main baarish se… then the blazing hot sun” she sounded tired

“Did you go to teach today?”

“I didn’t want to… but you know when you are in someone else’ spot you better go grab it before its taken” she laughed

“Where are you now?”

“I am just blocks from home”

“Oh.. u”

“No I didn’t bring the car… I am done with it dude… aaj subah.. I mean Papa said it misbehaved”

“Metro?”

“Yeah”

She didn’t ask him where he was, he wanted to share all that badly

“Does your Mom know?” she asked

“She does”

“Oh”

“Were you expecting her to shoot it down?”

“I was” she mumbled awkwardly

“It did not happen Viveka” he said amused

“Well we can talk about it…”

“You are grasping at straws aren’t you” he smiled

“You have no idea what you are getting into” she warned

“We need minds like you in US Foreign Policy” he mocked

So they wont randomly invade countries on a whim

“I am serious.. from a distance a middle class life might seem charming to you” she spoke sagely again… “Sector tayees bhayya Retreat” she told the auto wala

“I love how you dissuade me… with such vigor” he chuckled

“I work with powerful people that don’t give up easily, they are very resistant to change, I have to work hard”

“Tell me all about it at dinner” he muttered

“You pushed it out?”

He had seen her read receipt

She kept it on, she had nothing to hide, she didn’t play dodgy games like most young people of lying about not seeing a text

“I don’t get back until Sunday afternoon”

“Where are you?”

“London”

“that’s another thing”

“You don’t like London?”

“No… I don’t know how I will be if my husband went on weekly trips..” she wasn’t “with him” yet she missed him

“Ah!”

“Papa is always here… Ma has started traveling more in her 50s…”

“You want a marriage like theirs?”

“I DO” she said vehemently “They are my #marriagegoals” she said with a longing that reached out and touched him

“When did you go to London?” she asked

“Hours after I dropped you off”

“Oh?”

“Will it help if I promise to cut it down?”

What would I do with you? ☺️Looming over my head… stamping yourself on every inch of my being, occupying every sqmm of my sanity

“That would be like asking me not to study”

“No it wont be Viveka… Law is not the essence of my being like Econ is to you”

What is? She wanted to know

“Change nahi hai” she scowled at the auto wala who wouldn’t “break” her Rs.500

“Do you like the Indian food over there?” she giggled

“Some”

“Do you cook?” she asked

“Can’t to save my life… every attempt has ended in smoke and smells” he laughed

“Oh! I have to cook for you? Or cook while you stare at me?” Sigh!!”

“Ive asked you too many Qs… you can ask me now” she giggled

“Night person or morning?”

“Neither… I would sleep all day and all night” she sighed sadly

“Favorite music”

“Hindi… and classical Hindi, Shubha Mudgal” “Kishori Amonkar” “You know I am the stereotypical starving researcher SJW” she laughed at herself again

“And under the stars traveling theater and book readings” he teased

“HOW do u know?” she was shocked

He laughed at her naivete

“Arent you jet lagged?”

“Don’t know yet… on my way to my aunt’s”

“Your aunt lives there?”

“Hmm..”

Enjoy your stay”

“I will try”

“I heard you modeled for shirts?” she tried not to laugh

“Dege & Skinner and Henry Poole” he said quietly

“WOWW” “I don’t know the names… but they sound like some serious monarchy couturiers “Sorry it was your turn” “As I walk to the subzi wala to stock up on veggies”

“How many articles have you published?” he asked in awe

“Umm.. gosh… oh gosh… I don’t know… I am going to say 40? 30?”

“WOWW”

“It just takes a lot of writing… and lots of citations nobody ever reads them” “It could be a 100 and it still wont matter” she smiled disarmingly

“Do you want to teach?”

“I guess… just regular life you know… like Ma’s…” she was quick to dial down her dreams

“Marry me Viveka” he sighed and she dropped the phone PLOP! On the slushy veg market
