The Quill Part 3 - Page 68

Wow 🤩

Thank you 🙏

Its sad to see that she has reached a point where going home is not a happy thought any more.

He is insecure that she might leave again. She has done that throughout their relationship.

He needs to know he is not just an escape mechanism. She needs to know she is needed and wanted too.

He pulled the fork from her hand and set it on her plate, and turned her toward him, pulling her closer

“Teaching my kid to lie?” he warned huskily holding her chin

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

Owe

“We can talk about it later” he said into her eyes

She lowered her gaze

“I am not afraid of my mother”

“Sure” he nodded

“I am tired of running into you” she muttered leaning back

He chuckled audibly

“I am exhausted, fighting with you is very draining, I will not do it now” she pulled up her feet and folded her arms, leaning on the chair not wanting to eat any more

“Not do it forever?” he goaded her

“Patan ahi”

“Oh good”

“Outwardly we have these cutesy fights, but we both know, we treat each other like sworn enemies” she muttered

“Do u think we have cutesy fights?” he laughed sitting down by her

“Tumhe lagta hai hum faltoo mein ladte hain?”

“I know we are different people” he sighed

“What time is our flight”

“We can leave whenever you are ready”

“I want to bring Harold”

“Sure”

“Can I have my store back?” she muttered challenging his agreeable nature

“Ah” he acknowledged

“That’s your prize I know”

“No Taara” he paused folding a sweatshirt carefully

“Is Pia in town?”

“I don’t know”

“Is Veer in town?”

“He is in Goa”

“Hmm”

“If you are back, you shouldn’t fear her”

“I don’t fear her, I don’t like her”

“That’s fine” he nodded

Nidhi, Tushar and Pallavi came to the airport

Nidhi didn’t talk to her much, except saying “I will come see you soon, I have to go see Aparna and the kids”

“Not Gaurav?” she asked worriedly.

“Umm… ha haan” she nodded recovering quickly

Taaruni suspected something was cooking

“Ma kidhar hai Gaurav?”

“Mujhe kya maloom?” she shrugged like a careless teen

“Ma aapko pata hai”

“Do you tell me all your moves?”

“I have been living with you”

“Nahi beta I don’t know” Nidhi lied

She didn’t tell Taaruni Gaurav had gone back repeatedly to Munjals, until one time Pradyut happened to be there, and there was a big confrontation, and Pradyut had asked him to get lost and instructed the guards never to let him in

Taaruni wouldn’t find out about this until later

She did sense Nidhi being a little cold with Pradyut

She wasn’t over the moon with happiness at her daughter returning to her husband’s house

Taaruni looked at Pradyut many times to detect any animosity, there was none, he was busy talking about motorcycles

She felt on edge but couldn’t explain it

Tushar knew about Gaurav, Nidhi had told him everything, and had ended up demonizing Taaruni in the process

Nidhi’s outburst yesterday was a by product of Gaurav being humiliated at Munjals a week ago? Two weeks ago? The day Gaurav ranted to her, was the day Nidhi gave it to Taaruni

“We need to be paid soon Tarooo… baat karo unke lawyer se”

“Ma I have already” Taaruni lied

“I can go get the check

“NO. They will give it to me”

“I need it”

“Taara… shall we?” Pradyut interrupted

“Beta, will you speed up the payment you owe us? Its been so long” Nidhi was brutal

Did Nidhi think everyone will be as forgiving for all Gaurav’s deed as she is?

Really ?

That guy doesn’t value anything or anybody.

Is shameless on top of that.

Priorities matters……for nidhi, more than the life of her pregnant daughter, its her sons self inflicted agonies that matters……

Gaurav has already taken some portion of his shares from Munjals…..

No fight for now. But no fight forever? Life would be too boring for them without some fire.

With her attitude right now, why did Nidhi even bother showing up at the airport?
