"chalo..chalo..ab next poem sunao..!" said annie. Aaru was thinking which one he should tell next, when geet suggested.. "baby.. "bholu bhaiyaa".." Aaru smiled, agreeing with her. And started..
Bare bhulkkad..bholu bhaiyaa...
Unhe daant ti rahti maiiyaa..
aaru slaped his forhead and shook his head..while singing the first line.
Hardam karte hai shaitaani..
Bahut dukhi hai..nana naani..
aaru held his head making a sad & troubled face...he was looking so cute with those expressions that it made daadi chukled at her cute great grand son.
Annie too was enjoying it. But then Aaru stoped suddenly. A frown settled on his cute little face as he got stuck in mid way .. He looked at geet poutingly..indicating that he had forgot the next line.. Geet smile at him assuring him and mouth the first word of next line..
Instantly the frown disapeared and Aaru smiled brightly..continuing..
Jab bhi jate hai school..
Kuch na kuch..jate hai bhul..
geets face was adorned with a sweet smile and apriciation in her eyes for her baby...and with each word that smile was getting bigger..
Masti me toh hero hai..
aaru ran a hand through his hair, pulled his invisible colar up and showed his left hand joining his index finger & thumb..thus making a circle whlie other three fingers stood strait.
All the three ladies laughed wholeheartedly at his perfect inaction!
Per paraai me bilkul zero hai..
aaru shouted the last line and made a big zero in the air moving his hand..
Again all claped for him as he finished..which made aaru's eyes to twinkle in joy.
"how was it daadi..?" aaru asked in egar voice.
"hmm..." ..dadi paused as if thinking.. ..then exclaimed.. "bahut..bahut..bahut achhi.."
"love u..dadi.." aaru kissed on her cheek..dadi too kissed him.. "love u too..beta.." dadi replied hugging him.
"han..it was very good aaru..but..ek choti-si mistake thi.." ..annie said with a serious face.
Aaru looked at her with confuse expressions..
"u said.. "bare bhulakkad bholu bhaiyaa..haina..?" ..annie asked. Aaru nodded.
"baby..its not bholu bhaiya.. Its aaru bhaiya.." annie said hiding her smile. Geet who was also confused at first now realised that annie was just trying to irritate aaru.
"no bua..its bholu bhaiya.." ..aaru corrected.
"nahi champ..its aaru bhaiyaa! Maani ke "aaru bhaiyaa" poem bhul gaye..isliye..its.."bare bulakkad aaru bhaiyaa"..haina maani.." annie smirk knowing aaru's reaction and to tease him more..she took maansi in her lap and tickled her.
Aaru pouted at annie's comment and pulled maani in his lap..
"no its bholu bhaiyaa..haina mumma.." aaru looked at geet to support him. But aanie was fast..
"its aaru bhaiya.." aanie teased.
"no..its bholu bhaiya.." aaru fought back.
"aaru bhaiya.."..annie pinched his cheeks.
"bholu bhaiya..mumma..tell bua na.." aaru slaped her hand in irritation..
"annie.." geet tried to stop her but annie ignored..
"aaru bhaiya.." she continued her teasing..
"bholu..bholu..bholu.." ..aaru shouted annoyed.
"aaru..aaru..aaru.." ..annie imitated him.
"mumma its bholu bhaiyaa na..?" ..aaru moved to geet with maansi.
"han..its bholu bhaiya.." geet supported her son.
"dekha bua its bholu bhaiya..mumma ko bhi pata hai! Only u dont know.." ..aaru said.
Before annie could reply him.. Aaru continued..
"bua..apko achhiwali stories nahi aati..aapko toh poem bhi nahi aati.."
annie wasnt expecting him to say anything like that..but he shocked her more with his next comment..
"haww..bua..apko toh kuch bhi nahi aata hai.." ..aaru put a hand on his mouth expressing his shock..that his bua doesnt know anything.
Annie was fuming by now..while dadi and geet were laughing their heads of..seeing annie traping in her own net.
"shame..shame..shame..bua ko toh kuch bhi nahi aata.." ..aaru sang this as if its a poem..and kept chanting it..thus teasing & irritating annie all more..
"aaruuu..i am not going to leave u now.." ..shouted annie and ran behind aaru to catch him..
