Stellar & Sparkling
"That is not fair" Sam whispered
"Beta I dont mean to hurt" Chachi panicked
"You know what Chachi, NOT ONCE, NOT ONE f**kING TIME, Ma ever said anything about you, NOT ONCE did she ever say anything mean" Manny stood up
To say she was ballistic would be an understatement, she was mad... Manny smiled as she spoke
Chachi looked confused, Manny's expression didnt match her words...
"I cannot believe you just justified Dad's affair... and justified him betraying Ma" Manny bit out standing arms crossed in front of Chachi
II dropped a chutney spoon on the Italian marble floor
She bent to pick it up
AYYYO!!!!!
"Manya" Sam hissed
"she probably knows Sam, Ishita reads newspapers, we are a famous family" Manny declared
"Aaapke liye koi galat baat nahi ki Ma na KABHI bhi" Manny began to cry
Chachi was terrified now, or atleast pretended to be
"I didnt mean it in a bad way beta" Chachi waved a manicured hand
"She was the most kindest gentle soul... she was not greedy, she didnt put people down, she didnt teach
Dad to cheat and rob and do crooked things, she was of stellar character" Manny almost shouted...
"Beta" Chachi whined
"Let me finish Chachi" Manny said
"Manya chhod do" Sam sniffled
"Its OK if u dont attend Ranjan Bhalla's family events any more Chachi, I dont think we even missed u on Sunday...
Beenu Kumar belongs in a dirty hellish hole, and so do people that take her depraved side" Manny went up the stairs without looking back
Chachi stared out the patio, on to the lawns
Ranjan and Tan came in first...
"Aaojee aaojee" Ranjan was all smiles
It was Chachi's turn to drop her spoon and fork as she got up flustered
Tan was shocked to see Sam crying, it cudnt have been more than 15 minutes, the men had wandered off to the back yard?
WHAT the f**k happened?" he thought
Chachee gave Ranjan a hug
II was ashamed... her face flaming... she put her half eaten plate away
Mahavir wheeled yet another cart of diced fruit...
"Chaliye jee aapki pasand ki cheez aa gayi" Ranjan laughed "Chachi eats very healthy puttarjee"
He turned to Sam and was shocked to see her crying, then he turned to II
"Sam ko khabar haigi... gudiya tuadde waaste" he stressed
II was pale now..
"Kee hoya beta?" Ranjan sat by his daughter
"Kuch nahi bhaisaab, hum yoon hi Bhabhijee di gallan karan lag padey, bache senti ho gaye ney jara.
vadda mushkil hai rabba!! (she theatrically looked up at the skies) Wahe guru sab nu shanti deve" Chachi said smugly
YOU BITCH!!!!
U INSENSITIVE BITCH!!!
ONN TALELA IDI VIZHA
(Hope a clap of thunder strikes ur head)
"Inna paavan mauka ghar par... kaiven manayiye khushiyan?" Chachi appeared to choke up
Ranjan teared up as R&B walked in
He was surprised to see Chachi in there, he had already
started walking towards the side of the house when the gates opened, the property was so huge, he was completely cut off from the lounge from that point on
Lasya dozed and stirred up watching why the house was so quiet
"Yeh lo jee... darling" Chachi handed her a bag
Sam sat frozen
II looked at Sam
Sam looked away refusing to give her nod
Ranjan was flabbergasted
Tan sat by Sam, and started to talk abt something Ranjan had mentioned, something tame... sensing something grave had just occured
II looked helplessly at Ranjan
"Le lo puttar asheerwaad haiga" Ranjan was super proud
II accepted the small bag,
"Ek minute Ek minute" she stalled II
II handed it back nervously
"Mera iphone hai" she said smiling, taking her phone out
BTW CHACHI
I CAN AFFORD ONE TOO
I DO HAVE ONE
"Kholo kholo" Chachi cheered
Nivi kicked
"Vendaam ma" ???(No Amma)
II's hands shook
II was sure it was going to be something ridiculously expensive
JUST SO SHE CAN PROVE A POINT
SHE HAS AUDIENCE TOO
THATS WHY SHE DIDNT HAND IT AS SOON AS SHE CAME IN
WITH THIS WOMAN THERE IS ALWAYS AN AGENDA
"Aap miley ho na saari bhabhiyon se?" Chahi cooed as II undid the wrapping on a box
II nodded
"Ghar aaya karen beta, saath gup shup karange... Ma di kami mehsoos nahi honi chahiye, aap to pregnant ho... koi kami mehsoos nahi honi chahiye, BETA...(she said looking at R&B)
BRING HER NO? Hum bhi Dilli rehte hain" she laughed like a hyena
"Waise chachu ne kaha u got her a Mercedes, family India ki sabse badi Maruti dealrship haigi,
and u went and got a Merc?" she laughed again.. "U shudnt drive betaji, bhaisaab will arrange a driver" she delegated the task to Ranjan
R&B half smiled... not amused...
"He lives in Paris, U live in Delhi, bache ko Russia nahi na bhej dena" and she laughed again shrilly
OH BOY!!!
B----
Inside a third box was, tiny wrist karas in silver
"Aapke liye nahi BABY ke liye" Chachi reminded
"Mujhe laga mere liye hai" II slammed her
Chachi grunted
Ranjan oohed and aahed... "Dekhiye jee, hamey to sab pul gaya... inko yaad hai" "Punjab toon laayin?" "Harmandar toon?" he was giddy..he drooled with pride
Chachi nodded, II cud see it was some store in Punjab
Reaching out to take it from II
Chachi's phone rang
"Main bhi sochoon, itni der mein baja kyon nahi?" she smiled "Oh my... I have 7 missed calls. That
explains it, when I pulled the phone out of ur gift bag thats when I realized I brought it with me" she cackled
She got up, placed her half eaten plate on the plush coffee table
"Bhaisaab excuse me, I gotta go" she nodded
"Tanmay... how are u beta?" "Its like the last I saw u was at YOUR wedding... same applies to u, we live in Dilli puttar" she smiled
Tan got up and touched her feet
R&B DID NOT
Sam didnt budge either
Ranjan shifted uncomfortably on his feet... he had no influence on his kids...
"Chaliye jee" Chachi cooed "actually I had no idea the family will be here", she undid the key chain from her key bunch and handed it to Sam
"We went to Azores for two weeks SAB LOG... ALL OF US" "I got it from a hand crafted jewelry store" she handed Sam a sparkling Portugese momento in solid gold
Sam didnt accept it... pretended to reach for Lasya at that exact moment... Chachi quickly placed it
on her lap and turned away, Sam didnt attempt to get Lasya either, she let her be with R&B
"Harish nu bula lenge, sab roti shoti kha lenge ruk jaayen aap?" Ranjan begged
"I wish I COULD" Chachi preened
II got up stumbling "Easy" R&B gritted his teeth grabbing her arm
Just when Chachi approached the wide steel gates... Sam flung the gold key chain with all her might across the lawn, it hit the compound wall and the lil bells shattered...
Ranjan faced the side compound wall, Chachi faced the lawn... she saw something sparkling fly and hit the wall
