Good night everyone😊

He laughed and laughed

“When are you back”

She tried to slide that one in

“Don’t know”

Downstairs in his lobby Pia and Gaurav were having a screaming match

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Family & Foes

When she arrived home, she was shocked to find Pia there. The duo had taken a break and gone back and forth trading insults. The guard had left them to it out of politeness as it usually is in high end housing

“Hi!”

“AND There she is” Pia cackled

“BHAI” Taaruni hissed refusing to hug him

“Chal oopar” Gaurav was eager

“Yes please bring him upstairs and let him steal the family silver”

Taaruni turned to lash out and stopped

“Ummm…” she sighed audibly

“Isko tameez nahi hai yaar, teri SIL ko”

“She is not my anything Gaurav” Taaruni grit her teeth

Pia glared at them entering the elevator, rushed to join them

“I” (panting) “Will need a f----ing apology from both of you”

Taaruni’s heart sank

This was bigger than anything

She didn’t know how any of this could be hidden from Gopal and Sumedha

Taaruni was absolutely not prepared for such a showdown

She could never see the guard eye to eye ever again

OMG!

She cringed as she entered the house

“My brother can pay for help, you should get it cleaned more often”

She turned around calmly and faced Pia

“I have a day job I run a business remotely, I do the best I can. I wont apologize. You can leave or stay”

Pia glared at her and walked out slamming the door

Gaurav stepped out of the bathroom raring to go again, super disappointed he rushed to the sprawling balcony to watch her walk across the manicured lawn

“Na tumse koi darta hai na tumhare bhai se” he yelled

“GAURAV!!!!!” she pulled his arm viciously

He came in and grinned like a psychopath

“do second mein kar di iski chhutthi”

“Why are you doing this?”

“Tu mental hai? He has his eyes on Bhushan Kunj, bech dega saala” Gaurav was mad again

“He doesn’t care. He doesn’t care for us nor anything that belongs to us. If the bookstore was not in the way he wouldn’t give us a second look TRUST ME” she hissed impassioned

“Phir kal kahegi, book store aur ghar nahi hota to” “Yeh saare property ke dale barabar hain”

“They are not a property dealer, they are builders”

“Harkaton se to do take ka property dealer lag raha hai”

“Why are you here” she sat down and groaned

“Yaar main mushkil mein hoon Do u think I will worry about these people?” his voice was hoarse

“You hada shouting match with her” Taaruni was tearful

“She is a…”

“STOP”

She got up and paced the room.

This was completely bat s—t crazy she thought

Three months ago, she didn’t know this man or any one else and now Gaurav was unemployed and broke and abusing the man’s sister

“Mujhe at least Rs.25 lakh chahiye apne business ke liye, abhi first investment, tu apna share chhod, us aadmi ko bol” Gaurav growled

Sipping a beer

“DON’T drink alcohol”

“Tujhse hisaab leta hai kya?”

“Believe it or not HE DOES” she smiled smugly

She shouldn’t have

Gaurav was going to use it now

“Le” he threw Rs.500 on the elegant coffee table with some Romania travel book on top

“Don’t” she didn’t know how to handle her own brother

She was devastated hwo could she call Ma?

“Noooooooo” she whispered out loud

“Mujhe bas writing mein de de, usko keh he will say he doesn’t want a share”

“Are you MAD?” she screamed half crying

“I want my money Taru”

“I don’t have ANY” she sobbed

Gaurav became scared

He spent the next 20 minutes pacifying her

She calmed down and got up to make dinner

Siblings shared a meal talking about how shook they all were after hearing Papa’s news

Taaruni hid the fear she felt when she saw his face

This was no longer the Gaurav she knew

He downed 3 more beers and she forced him to stay the night, he told her he left his overnighter tote bag by the guard downstairs

She slept in Pradyut’s room

“Alag sote ho tum dono?” he asked in shock as she sat in bed scrolling through her phone

“Go to bed” she growled

“He is such a dirty guy dude!!”

“Why? Because he didn’t molest me on day one?” she was bitter

Gaurav scowled

“Don’t say things you will regret later bhai?” she begged

He sat down on the bed by her and sighed

“Just get me my money from him main yaha rukna chahta bhi nahi”

She didn’t know what money and how she could get it

“WHY did you quit your job?”

“Main mental nahi hoon jo chhod doonga” he growled

She realized he must have been fired

“Itne rich hain ye log, inke mattress ke neeche cupboards mein rakha rahega na? 1 ya 2 CR?”

She was horrified

“I don’t go through their stuff” she lied

She cringed

She absolutely did

At that very moment she realized she was just like Gaurav

Spiteful and angry

“I only want my store. I don’t want Pradyut’s money” she mumbled to herself 10s and 10s of times

Laying in bed

She didn’t know when she fell asleep she woke up to bright February sun hitting her face and an image moving across the window

Pradyut was home

Her eyes opened wide in shock

“Tum aa gaye?” she yelped

He leaned on the window and grinned

“What time is it?”

8:04 AM?”

“How did ur flight land so early?”

“Private” he explained

“Umm”

They both drank in the sight of each other like two thirsty animals

“You sleep here?” his lips twitched

She sat up in shock

Gaurav was in the other room and looked like Pradyut didn’t know
