In Gauri's room
J: Listen now! Do not and I mean NEVER come out of this room without permission! I do not want you here! The only reason you are here is because Tej wants to prepare you hear but I do not want your shadows anywhere near my family! God forbid! No one will! Anyway, your food will be here on time and your teachers will also come here to teach you everything!
Saying this Janvi was out of the room and Gauri was left crying on the floor! She could not understand where life has taken her! She was never happy but the past 13 years were hell. She knew what she was expected to do, her lady teachers have taken care of that. They were very cruel but better than those men! And now here in their house... she has heard that she was being prepared for a man named Mahendra. God knows what will he do to her!
P: oh ho what do we have here? The S girl!! Oh no no no no..why are you crying dear? Do not worry if you don't know something, my nephew Om will teach you everything!
(Pinky left laughing bitterly at Gauri who was crying even harder than before.)
Next Morning
J: Tej! Tej! What's happening to you? Omkara! Come quickly! Look something is wrong with Tej. (Janvi was heaving at this point, tears marking on her face).
O: Maa come down. Nothing will happen! I have called the doctor Dad just hold for a few more moments! The doctor is just coming!!
5 days later
O: Dad is gone but left his burden on me! Now what do I do with it! How the hell do you sell something?
I: Oh, come on Om! Now you are not THAT thick...anyone will buy. Just look at her for once and you will know why! And stop referring her as "it she is a human being!
O: I don't care! (Thundered Om) I do not care Ishita! I don't need this burden, I have enough on my shoulders already...You know how hard it is, right? Training her is one thing, now I have to actually SELL her!
I: Om we WILL do that, don't worry. I am in this with you. I will always be here.
O: Where should I start, Ishita?
I: Meet all the people and establish your authority?
O: I have already done that. They don't have the ball to stand against me! I thought it'd be easier but now...it's so damn hard to do everything. But I have to handle it...
I: Do you know the person whom we need to sell that girl? I think her name is Gauri...
O: Let me check the files I got from dad's office...here Mahendra...I have prepare her for Mahendra...dad said we have to choose the buyer but he chose it and it's MAHENDRA!!!!! Can you believe it?
I: It's okay, Om. You know that he is important for business, let's just meet the girl first.
O: Not now. I am too angry for this.
I: You are always angry, I think it's stress. Do you want me to help you?
O: Not now, Ishita. I cannot handle it now! Go and sleep.
I: Can I move to another room now?
O: What???
I: ummm your dad is not here so you are the boss. Now you can do anything, so you can just let me be in any of the rooms.
O: Ishita I know exactly what dad's death means but that does not mean you will do as you wish. I said I don't need you now, I didn't say never, now did I?
I: I am not an object, Om!!!!
O: Oh no, you are not. You are a very beautiful possession...go to sleep Ishita, don't bore me please.
(Ishita went to bed crying)
I(Mind): One day Om I will make you suffer for it, you Have to accept me in front of the world, I cannot stay hidden all my life.
Next Morning (Breakfast Table)
J: Om you have your dad's position in business now. Have you thought anything? How will you handle it? Do you want me to step in?
O: Are you flipping kidding me mom? I have handled this business well with dad these past few years, I definitely do NOT need any help! Do one thing please just don't interfere in my work...I have to work out a lot of things...It will be difficult for a few days but be careful...all of you, never forget who we are and how we work, ok?
P: Yes Om dear you don't worry. Janvi is just a bit worried and upset. You understand, right? I will handle everything here. You just concentrate in your work.
O: Thank you Pinky maa! I hope you can understand my situation. I will send some important files to you, can you just handle those?
P: Of course I can.
J: But you are not letting me help you. How can you do that? I am your mom for God's sake!!(Janvi was screaming)
O: Exactly! For this reason I don't trust you! You are just an emotional wreck all the time...we need someone strong, not a whinny, over emotional woman!
P: Om leave it! Oh yeah, I almost forgot! What do you want to do with the girl?
O: Which girl?
P: The one who is staying here with us. Tej bhai wanted you to take care of that case...now you will be so busy, should I take care of it for you?
O: No I will handle it. Dad wanted me to do it.
P: But you have so much work pressure...
O: Don't worry, Ishita will be helping me as well. I can handle it, you trust me?
P: Of course dear!
J: Till when your mistress is going to stay here? My home is not for all these. You cannot keep her here. You can have her but keep her somewhere else, you don't bring your mistress out in broad daylight! You should know all these thing. And you girl! Your dad is also in the business, don't you know that you cannot just come here and live? You should be ashamed of yourself! Your types do not belong in a family!
O:Enough! First, she's not my mistress, she's my partner - she helped me with my works. She's will be here as long as I want her to be and no discussion on it! I did not meet that girl yet so Ishita be prepared this evening I will meet her!
I: Yeah!
O: So see you in the evening family.
