Prologue
"Okay! You can do this! You can do this!"
Pragya buttoned her well worn denim short and gathered the ending of her ash coloured oversized t-shirt in to a knot as she stood in front of her floor length mirror.
"It's just for few days Pragya! And it will pass just like that!"
She gathered her hair in to a messy bun and grabbed her Chashma from her bedside cabinet.
She looked around her cosy neat room one more time to find anything that would buy her more time but finding nothing she sighed.
"Okay then! Now it's the time to get to work!"
Pragya opened the door to her closet.
***
Abhi stared at his closet.
Right side remained completely empty now while left side was threatening to spill over any moment now with so much of cloths.
Few t-shirts fell down as he watched. He quickly picked them, balled them up and threw them back inside.
Hmm... How much space would she need? Will this be enough!
Oh! This is going to be such a hassle!
And then we have to shift it all back!
Can't we just keep it as it is?
"Patience Abhi! Patience!"
***
"Okay done!"
Both stepped back from the closet to admire their handy work.
The messy left side contained his cloths while the neat right side contained hers now.
"Hmm not bad!"
"Yaa.. Okay so listen!" Pragya started to say.
"Yeah I know! Don't mess with my side right?"
"Well, no! But now that you mentioned it, yeah! Don't come to my side and don't mess it up Abhishek!"
"Well, the same goes for you!"
"What? What more can I do to mess your side! It's already messy!"
"Hmm good point! So you were saying?"
Abhi asked.
"Well, I want the left side of the bed!"
"Okay done!"
They paused for few seconds each thinking about the coming days.
"Err! Do we really have to do this!"
Pragya whined.
"Asks the woman who made this mess in the first place!"
"Abhishek! It was totally Bulbul's fault! You know how she is right? Why didn't you stop me!"
"Whoa! She is your cousin! Not mine! You should know how to deal with her!"
"Well yeah... But she had a point right? And Daadi was missing you terribly. I don't know why but I felt she sounded so stressed. I felt calling her here for few days is the best we could do. And I know for a fact you won't be able to go see them there any time soon with work and all that..."
"Well, I know Pragya! But... You know I am bit worried about all this!"
Abhi waved his hand around the room.
"This is such a hassle and also I don't want Daadi to have any doubts about us. I know she won't understand any of this! She shouldn't know anything. Anything at all! I just wish we don't make her more worried after she comes here."
Pragya nodded sympathetically. She completely understood him and agreed with him.
"So when will they arrive?
Pragya finally asked.
"They will be here by evening..."
"Okay then. I am going to bed! Tomorrow is going to be a long long day!"
"Hmmm... But look at the bright side! You get to sleep with "The Abhishek Mehra"!"
Abhi said teasingly pointing at himself.
"Oh! Mr Mehra you see I am not really interested!"
Pragya replied in the same tone and winked at him before leaving his room.
"It's your loss Mrs Mehra!"
She heard him say as she entered her room which was adjoined to his.
She was about to close her door when she heard him call out to her.
"Pragya!"
She poked her head out her doorway.
"Yeah?"
"Thank you for doing this! I owe you one!"
Abhi said in earnest.
"Hmm... Okay! I will keep that in mind!"
Pragya said jokingly.
"Good night Abhishek! Go to sleep!"
She smiled at him.
"Good night Pragya!"
With that, she closed her door.
