Hi! My Nauc family! Chapter 5 is here...Messages will be given by Sujay...
CHAPTER 5
It was the next day, the day of Pakphere ritual...A car stopped infront of the Singh house...Umesh and Aman came out from the car while Ritesh looked out from the car's window, dialling Kirti's number...Kirti ran to downstairs followed by Nisha and opened the gate...She was told by Ritesh that he would drive Umesh and Aman to the Singh house...When he would give her a call, she would come down and open the gate...
Umesh: Oho, seems like Kirti was very much waiting for her sister, oops sorry her Ritesh i guess...*Teasing*
Aman: Yeah Umesh, seems like my sister is not anymore my sister...*Making fake grumpy face to tease*
Ritesh: *Coming out of the car* Areh, no no bhaiya and bhabi I told her to come down, not her fault...
Nisha: Wow! Seems like my would be jeeju is already a joru ka gulam...*Laughs*..
Aman and Umesh laughed out too and Ritesh-Kirti turned red...
Umesh: I think we should go inside now...Have to meet the elders and leave as soon as possible because bauji needs to go to a relative's place with his 3 sons...
Nisha: *Looking inside the car* Kabir did not come?
Ritesh: Oh nope, that lazy ass is still sleeping...
Kirti: Haha, now lets go inside everyone...
Umesh and Ritesh stayed a bit in the Singh house...They met the elders and Lajjo along with Veena did not let them go without having some snacks...After the Vij boys left, Aman and Nisha took Kirti into their room to tease Kirti more but Kirti turned the teasing table towards Nisha taking Kabir's name...
Kirti: Kabir! Kabir! Kabir, hmm Nisha?
Nisha: What Kabir, Kabir?! *Surprised*
Kirti: Why were you searching Kabir in the car?
Aman: Yeah, Kirti I haven't give it a thought...*Being too excited*
Nisha: Come on guys! He has become my really good friend that is why I was looking for him...
Kirti: Yeah, yeah good friend...I think one day what I am guessing today, will come true...
Nisha: You and your thoughts Kirti...Keep it to yourself *Getting angry*
Aman: Okay okay, let it be Kirti..Maybe they are just friends...
Nisha: Yes we are.. *Leaving the room*
Kirti: *After Nisha left* We will see, right Aman didi?
Aman: Hmm, yeah yeah...*Smiling*
Singh family was having a real good time with their newly married daughter Aman...It was almost 5 PM when the door bell rang...Raanjot opened the gate and there was standing a over excited Kabir who was almost jumping...He ran inside and went to Nisha who was serving some tea to her family members...Kabir twirled her around and screamed *Nishaaa, you did iiit*
Everyone was so surprised, then they saw the other Vij kids to enter the house too along with Dolly's 3 children...
Umesh: Congratulations to both of you Kabir and Nisha...We were about to come at evening but Kabir as well as we all could not wait any more after knowing about the matter...
Nisha: Sorry jeeju but what are you talking about?
Kabir: Oh Nisha! We are talking about our admissions...I checked the selected list on internet..You also applied for Marquis University, Australia?
Aman: Yes she did..
Nisha was numb for a second, she could not believe she got selected and when she realised it, a beautiful smile broke out on her face and she hugged Aman...Everyone of her family group hugged the two sisters in happiness...Soon, Nisha realised, she needed to check that if she had got the full free scolarship too, only then all the happiness would make sense...
Nisha: Umm, Kabir did you see anything about the scolarship on the list?
Kabir: Emm, no Nisha..But they have mailed you I guess..Check your mail...
Nisha: Okay, you guys wait here, I go to the market and check my mail from the local computer cafe...
Kabir: Are you serious Nisha? *Rolling his eyes* Here, take my phone and check...
Kirti: Yeah Nisha, you could have use my phone too...
Rupam: This is so nice, for us internet is too expensive to use on mobile phones but you kids are so helpful to us...
Kirti: Chachu everything which is mine is Aman didi's and Nisha's too...
Dolly: Same from all of us also...
Jwala: Yes yes...
Nisha nervously took the phone from Kabir and checked her mail..She found a mail from the university..She held her breath for a second and opened that mail...Her eyes grew bigger as she read the mail and everyone became nervous..Nisha took a second and closed her eyes...Then she screamed at the top of lungs saying, 'I HAVE GOT THE FULL FREE SCOLARSHIP AND THE HOSTEL IS ALSO INCLUDED IN IT, AS THEY HAD MENTIONED IN THEIR FORMS, I AM GOING TO AUSTRALIA'...
Everyone smiled and started congratulating Nisha...Umesh told her that Maanjeet and Pammi would also come tomorrow to congratulate her...
It was almost dinner time, Nisha and Kabir were busy in the kitchen...Kabir was there to help Nisha in the making of Kheer for everyone...Nisha was not sure how Kabir would help her but Kabir was stubborn to help her so she had to take him with her...At that moment, Kabir was supposed to bring the milk and he did too but Nisha found something unusal while pouring it into the pan...She then tasted it and realised what blunder Kabir had done...He brought the coconut milk...Nisha being patient with him, told him to bring the actual milk and the sugar...This time Kabir brought the actual milk but on the place of sugar, he brought salt...Luckily, Nisha could guess that Kabir might do another blunder so she looked through the bottle before putting the salt into the pan and with the very first look inside the bottle, Nisha could say that it was salt...
Nisha: This is salt Kabir...
Kabir: How do you know without tasting it? Salt and Sugar looks the same...
Nisha: No Kabir, they look quite different, if you look closely...For your assurance, taste it and say..
Kabir: *Making a bitter tasting face after having a pinch of salt from the bottle* Yuck, it is salt...It sure is...
Nisha: See? Now I need to bring the sugar and the main ingredient...
Kabir: I know what it is and trust me, this time no mistake...Let me bring them..
Nisha waited for Kabir, after few moments Kabir was back but what he brought with sugar made Nisha's eyes almost touch her forhead...
Nisha: What is this Kabir?! This is Kirti's oats which she brought from Delhi to have every morning on her breakfast...Why you brought it?
Kabir: Come on, in Kheer the main ingridient is some sticky kind of thing, that must be the oats right?
Nisha: Kaabiiir! *Almost screaming, being fed up*
Kabir: What?! *Being clueless*
Nisha: That is supposed to be the rice Kabir, rice!
Kabir: Oh is it? I am sorry.. *Making an awkward face*
Even after all the pain Kabir gave Nisha, Nisha was still able to finish the Kheer properly..Now it was the time to decorate the Kheer with almonds and raisins...But when she looked onto the plate where she had kept the raisins, she found the plate empty..She looked at Kabir and Kabir gave her a pouty smile...
Kabir: Umm I love raisins you know...I did not get it, when I ended up eating all of it...
Nisha: Kabir, you are impossible you know? *She broke out into a laugh*
Kabir laughed out too seeing Nisha laughing...
At the dinner table they enjoyed the dinner a lot and Kabir's kitchen stories too while Kabir just made faces every now and then because all the of them except the elders were teasing him...The elders took his side...
Dolly: I did not know Nishu that the Palak Paneer actually had problem that day, I thought Kabir was joking around...Really sorry about the laughing that day...Sometimes accident happens...Just see how much tasty the Kheer is...You are amazing Nisha...
Saurav: Yes the Kheer is totally delicious Nisha...
Jwala: Nishu di you are awesome...
Nisha: Thank you Saurav jeeju and Jwala...Don't say sorry Dolly di...You are my elder sister, you don't need to say sorry and I can understand di...
Dolly: Aww, that is my sweet Nishu...
Everyone praised Nisha for the tasty Kheer and Kabir told her that half of the credit was his because for his faults she was extra careful while making the Kheer to which Nisha just laughed...After the dinner, it was really an emotional situation when Aman was going back with the Vij's...At night Nisha was checking her cupboard that what she would need in Australia...Suddenly she felt like calling Kabir...She stopped herself at first seeing the time as it was almost 12 AM but then she could not resist herself and called Kabir...Kabir answered the call...
Kabir: Hello Nisha?
Nisha: Hello Kabir, yeah I am!...Sorry for calling you this late...
Kabir: Oho, it is all fine...I am not even going to sleep now...I was playing pc games...
Nisha: Ohh...
Kabir: So?
Nisha: So what?
Kabir: So you have called to say me an ohh?
Nisha: Oh no sorry sorry, I called you to say that, umm I don't know...I just felt like talking to you...In last 3 weeks, life has taken so many turns... You all came, Heer didi's marriage, we becoming really good friends, our admission in the same university...I don't know what more to come in the future...The way you pacified me yesterday, I just felt like sharing these things with you today...
Kabir: First of all, stop saying sorry for so many times...No formalities between friends okay? Then, yeah life has taken so many turns...But it will only get more beautiful in the future Nisha...And don't worry Australia will be super fun..After all childhood besties will be together haha...
Nisha: Haha yeah...Thank you so much Kabir for always being there...
Kabir: Again a thank you? No formalities Nisha...No!
Nisha: Okay okay, I guess I can't say sorry now..
Kabir: Hehe you got it...
Nisha: Okay, I am going to sleep now...Talk to you later, hmm?
Kabir: Yeah sure..Goodnight Nisha...
Nisha: Goodnight Kabir...
