Thanks everyone for an overwhelming response. 😊
Okay, here goes the 4 th chapter. Don't worry, this chapter is going to be much long. 😊
Chapter 4
Kukki, come here, beta! Lunch time!
The little one ran to the dinning table hearing her mother's voice and sensing the aroma that filled the air.Kukki jumped in delight. She was so engrossed in eating that she didn't notice the lines of worry on her mother's face.
Chandu! Prerna yelled.
Yes, Ma'am! the faithful servant came running.
Please dial Mr. Mehra's number and give the call on loudspeaker after putting it on the table...!
Hello, Mr. Mehra. Where is Mr. Bajaj? I have called him several time, but he didn't respond!
Mr. Mehra smirked.( Will I have to tell you all the reason?😆)
He replied, He is busy in a meeting , Mrs Bajaj.
Oh, thanks. Did he had his lunch?
Nope, not even breakfast..
Prerna cut the call, and after Kukki finished her lunch, hurried into the kitchen, mumbling , Yeh Mr. Bajaj bhi na!Kabhi bhi apna kayal nhi rakhte! Jab se unse mili hoon, woh sirf kaam hi kaam karte. Agar is negligence ki wajah se unhe kuchh ho gya toh? Apne baare mein na sochein..Par Kukki ka toh...
Kukki was shocked to see her mother. Perna's face was red in anger.
Prerna packed the lunchbox and said to Kukki, Beta, aap ghar mein rahkar Shinchan dekho, mein aap ke Papa ke office ja rhi hoon. (I WATCH SHINCHAN TOO 🥱)
Kukki nodded in agreement. Prerna kissed her daughter on the forehead and grabbed her purse.
She raced outside.
Ram, their Driver, took out the Black Duster (I love this car...😆).
They drove off to the RB's Office.
Prerna was already hungry... Mice were jumping in her stomach...
To make matters worse, in the middle of the road, the car broke down.
Ram- Sorry, Madam. I will fix the problem as soon as possible. Please don't complain to Sir. He will fire me from my job!
Prerna filt pity on him, Oh God! Mr. Bajaj is so strict with his employees! She assured him, Don't worry. I will not tell him anything. Do not panic.
She came out of the Car and stood on the pavement of the Busy Amherst Street . (This street was once my home street.🥱. Yup, I AM FROM West Bengal, specifically Kolkata.)
Prerna was checking her phone if her husband reponded to her texts or not. Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder, and someone's voice.
PRERNA?
It was him, the great Anurag Basu! A pretty good womanizer! she sighed and turned towards him.
Anurag was about to say something, when he noticed the signs of a married woman. Sindoor on her forehead, mangal sutra on her neck, and sankha-pola(Don't ask me the english translation of sankha-pola 😊) on her hands indicated that she is married. She looked really beautiful in the blue saree.
Yes, Mr. Basu. Want to say something? she replied, removing his hand from her shoulder.
Anurag was broken out of the trance by her voice and action.
You...married? When and How?
Prerna replied in a confident voice, You are now a closed chapter in my life, Mr. Anurag Moloy Basu. Yes, I am married, to the the best husband in the world. He Take care of me, understand me, and above all, gives me my deserved respect and space. I am happy with him and his family. He is better than you, in fact he is the best. And for you kind information, he is not a Mumma's Boy or gets touched by fake emotions! He is really loveable!
Anurag stood there speechless. Yeh woh Prerna nahi hai jise main jaanta hoon, he thought to himself, She has changed a lot.
Prerna burst out laughing, Did you think that I will completely break down after that incident? Do you think that I am that weak?
Anurag- Who is your husband?
Prerna smirked, You want me to tell you his name so that you get some shitty idea in this brain of yours to ruin my marital bliss? Never, Anurag Basu!!!
Ram came there, Madam, the car started.
Coming, said Prerna and walked off from there.
Anurag stood there gaping like a fool. 🤣
.....
The mighty Bajaj came in his cabin after finishing the conference, to recieve the biggest shock of his life....Prerna was waiting for him in his cabin, with a pretty big lunchbox and a furious temper.
Mrs. Bajaj? Aap?Yahan par kyun?
Did you eat something?she asked.
No I was just going to..
She cut him off, Mujhe saab pata hai. Mehra ji nne sab bataya hai. Now just come and eat it. Because of you, I am also hungry...
Rishab smirked and said, But you should have eaten, na!
She blushed and replied, But according to our custom...
Rishab understood her.
Come, we will share!!! he said.
Prerna cheekily replied, I have brought food for both of us😛.
Rishab face palmed. How crazy and innocent she is!!! He thought to himself 😃.
Later that night...
The book fell from Prerna's hands. What do yu mean? We are shifting to Basu Bari day after tomorrow, but why and how?
Cool down, Mrs.Bajaj!
He narrated to her that he bought 60% share of the Basu Bari and something that changed her, better say, their lives forever.
Prerna wiped her tears and said, I will always there be with you, Mr. Bajaj.
Rishab smiled. Thanks, Mrs. Bajaj!!!
