P&P with a twist IV - Page 47

They are a real couple no daubt about that

Veev should understand why Raanav is doing all this. Yes he can not do this his whole life, but for now he wanted to make sure his mother did not upset his wife.

Mam pls update

Want two lengthy updates

Sorry for disturbing you❤️

Pretend

“I just wanted to meet her 1:1” “U were being childish Smrita muttered exasperated with Raanav later that night

“You think I was policing you?”

“The look on your face when you entered Starbucks said it all” she was still angry

“Dad piled on you I didn’t want you to take it out on her”

“You ? U… U actually think I would do that behind her back?”

“You have sent me many texts Mum, lets not be delusional” he was irritated too

“It was a genuine attempt to reach out to her Thank u for ruining it Raanav”

“You could have also invited her to Europe, that’s what disgusted me about ur actions” he used the opportunity to be honest

She appeared like she was in shock

“You went off and bought a whole new apartment to prove your point?” she growled

“I was going to buy or thinking about it I should say I decided to do it quick”

“Now the whole family is going to burn the mother because she I s the most evil”

“Stop it Mum” he hissed

“I know what u are doing…. You are just offloading all your guilt on me”

“I have none”

“Oh really? That’s why you bought her the diamond bracelet?”

“Oh really? Do u think Bhai buys a thing a day for Lekha out of sheer guilt?

She swallowed

“You have never been able to reconcile with who I married

“You haven’t been able to reconcile with her family so I think it takes one to know one”

Raanav lowered his gaze in guilt

“Don’t follow on your Dad’s footsteps unless you are completely totally like him” she mocked

“I am like neither of you” he bristled

“So all the conversations we had about Viveka Mathur at Shrivastavs’ between April and June last year when you swore undying love did not even happen?”

“I am in love with her Mum” he smiled gleefully

“I know that I am not arguing about it”

“You are trying to remind me of it every day”

“I DON’T”

“No not the fact that I love her, but the fact that I thought differently”

“U THINK differently darling” she went on her toes and kissed his cheek

She was dressed to the hilt

Her brother and nephews were in town, she was headed out to some happening party in town

“You should also be overjoyed that I have been asked to apologize” he said grimly

“DAD SAID SO?”

He didn’t answer

“SEE THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS… THIS IS EXACTLY what happens when you go off and do stuff on your own” she was livid

“Staaap Mum” he waved his hand irritated

“You act like I am the bad guy your Dad decides to test you by making you capitulate”

“If that’s what you got out of all this then I am sorry”

“How about you go over to wherever Janakpuri or Rohtak or wherever they live and record urself apologizing to her parents and send me a video”

“Do u NOT want me to do it? Or do u think I am incapable of doing it?”

There was complete silence as Satyen entered the room with a help’s assistance

“Helloooo” he called out limping towards his wife

She was reminded of the scathing talk she had received in the morning

She didn’t meet him half way or hug or kiss him

Raanav got up ready to leave the room

“I am not sure if u saw my email?”

“Which one?” he rolled his eyes

“Umm.. the one about the whole contract neg…”

The men sat in the balcony and talked about it for around 30 minutes

“Did u go apologize?” Satyen was a shrewd man

“Not yet” Raanav was flippant

“I am hoping you can do it before u can go to Norway with ur brother”

“Do u place such expectations on him as well?”

“Well he married into a family… umm.. ok let me say this…. If I hear about him having insulted the Tandons I would have asked him to do the exact same thing”

“Your sure he hasn’t?” Raanav mocked his Dad

He HAD to buy time

He wasn’t ready

Cornering him was only making him angry

“He is not trying to run away from home to shelter and protect his wife”

“That is no guarantee actually” Raanav was being p—y

“Well.. I was not expecting an argument Raanav, that tells me you disagree with the idea” Satyen sighed and leaned back with a yawn

“I need time” Raanav mumbled

“THAT’S a better answer”

“You want to reach and claw at the soul don’t you?” Raanav was angry at his Dad for making him speak the truth

“No I only… umm.. my only wish is, for you to respect the Mathurs as much as you respect your wife, the longer this takes it will tell me you are not sure about it”

“Mum is right, you do love to gloat” he lashed

“Did she?”

“Pleez” he was angry

“She not only encouraged you and enabled you but is now actively discrediting me” he growled

“I did not see you curtail such behavior even ONE TIME” raanav accused

“Havent we been through this? I told you I am guilty for looking the other way”

“Now you have had this awakening you want the entire family to attain salvation”

“I do” Satyen was firm

“Satya u need to shower and change”

“I need a drink Smri”

“Nahi… kal test hai they asked u to not drink 48 hours ahead” Smrita sounded worried

“If I cannot get a hello at the end of the day I should just get drunk” he winked

Raanav left them alone

He was tired of the lectures

He went downstairs she was not home yet

“Are u heading home?”

“No… I texted u at 3ish I am going to my book read”

“Where is it?”

She sent him the address

“Is it in Hindi?”

“Always”

He was not happy

He drove recklessly to get to NOIDA

He parked outside a two story home, there were over 50 people spilling over the balcony and terrace

He wandered looking for his wife

“If this a READING why is everyone chatting and laughing?” he cornered her by a wall

“hamey pata nahi tha we were on a strict schedule” she mocked him

“U can read it at home in bed… can we go”

“No we may not, Ive been to a 100 pubs, so nope”

“Then translate every word for me”

“Kaun hai banda?””MATHURRR” a man mocked Viveka coughing artificially passing by pretending to pass by

“PATI hai… Hindi nahi aati isko ro raha hai”

“REALLY?” Raanav was not happy because he could understand THAT line

This conversation was fun to read.
Waiting to see how he makes Viveka payback now.

As for Ranaav apologising Mathur’s goes, he should do when he really feels sorry about his behaviour.

Or else it’s futile.

I don’t think he even had apologised to Viveka for his initial behaviour. He declared his love but never apologised to her.
Satyen needs to take it slow.

Smrita is lashing out at Raanav and attacking him instead of talking about the real issue. Raanav is doing the same thing with Satyen.

They're both mad at being cornered and refuse to accept any fault. But does Raanav realize how hypocritical he sounds?

What ground does he have to police Smrita if he thinks Satyen has no business correcting him after years of ignoring such actions!?!!

“Kaun hai banda?””MATHURRR” a man mocked Viveka 😆

“PATI hai… Hindi nahi aati isko ro raha hai” 🤣

“REALLY?” Raanav was not happy because he could understand THAT line 🤣

It'd be fun to see Raanav in this setting!

Nisha, waiting to see Ranaav's reaction. Will he be like fish out of water here? Or will he try to gel with people ?

Finally, there is Raanav on her turf. Lets see how he will navigate this.

Apologies are hard for some people. Smrita and Raanav are in the same shoes. Both are trying to cast off blame but inside they know they are in the wrong.
