FF: Darkhaast / Tum Se Hi |PreRish| Updated: Ch 11 on Pg 17 | 17/9 - Page 6

Chapter 1:

I literally thought there was an incoming custody battle with Prerna's name and Kukki's. But the mighty war had been waged for the name change. 🤣

The premise with the characterisations were hilarious.

Thoroughly loved it. ❤️

Chapter 2:

We all stan toddler love. 🤣 Kukki painting the town blue with Priyansh. 😂

Gold digger, platinum digger, diamond digger? 🤣

I am loving this! ❤️ Prerna is awesome here and Kukki is so adorable. No words for Rishabh, he is just *sighs dreamily*...

Chapter 3:

The backstory is very very intriguing.

Prerna gave her embryo to save her family and to construct a perfect revenge ploy to avenge his dead family, Rishabh made Annika be a surrogate for his and Prerna's child.

This is literally brilliant.

Chapter 4:

I love how sweet the bond is between Prerna and Kukki. ❤️ Her little deskie and chair and little Kukki's fascination with big Kukki is heartwarming. 😳 I love them.

So this is a slow-burn romance?🤣 RB acknowledged Prerna's need in his life and moi is already blushing. ☺️☺️☺️

The fast updates are so much appreciated! 🤣

Chapter 5

A month after Prerna Sharma had left home, the newspapers were littered with news that would shame the most scandalous people.

"Prerna Sharma – the mistress"

"Mr. Basu's Lost Lover?"

"The Secret of The Alps"

"One Prerna, Two Men"

Prerna Sharma, the scandalous villainess, stayed perched in a pink fluffy room, with the fluffiest pillows and blankies and a dangerous upper loft no baby should ever have access too. But when did that Bajaj ever believe that his child was a baby? Bajaj's freedom for Kookie was a disaster waiting to happen. After all, Bajaj believed that he hired caretakers that gave Kookie the freedom to live life as she pleased. Anything else was the caretakers' responsibility. But could someone tell a certain Bajaj that his baby doll Bajaj was, In fact, a baby?!

Prerna spent the month in reclusion. Bajaj suggested she transfer schools. She did. Bajaj suggested she apply for university abroad. She did. But then quickly turned back on her heels when she saw the price of the fees. Like hell, she was going to do her bachelors abroad. No, she wasn't. So she enrolled at the very same college she dropped out of, much to Bajaj annoyance.

But Prerna was scared of going to college. She was afraid of the people, the talks and ashamed to meet Anurag. Bajaj was at his wit's end. Trust Kookie to find someone as dramatic as Prerna. Fu-king toddler. Who the hell refused to go to uni but this Sharma kid?

"Ah, hell" Bajaj had exclaimed as he dropped his spoon on the dining table at dinner with the Bose - Mishra family.

"Cursie" exclaimed Kookie as she covered her mouth in shock. And tiny Priyansh followed her suit in covering her ears. Kookie glared at him. How dare he cover her ears? That silly boy.

Why did Bajaj like it better when Kookie spoke less? A month with Prerna and Kookie came along with her ee's which Prerna found adorable but at certain times. Bajaj just prayed for silence.

"What is it now?" Priya Bose sighed as Rishabh Bajaj threw a tantrum. Who wouldn't know him better than his own nanny? The very same nanny who reconciled with her ex-husband and left Rishabh to take care of her own baby. Rishabh scowled at the memory. But then smiled as Priya ruffled his hair to comfort him.

"Big Kookie," Kookie giggled as she slurped another mouthful of her favorite ice cream.

"She refuses to go to school,“ Rishabh sighed exasperatedly.

Kookie decided it was a very good time to convince Mooommmyy to let her have a swear jar. Kookie giggled as she called Prerna mommy. That was funny.

"Did you adopt someone without my knowledge?" Priya sighed. Kookie was in high alert.

She scrunched face and crossed her arms in revolt as if to say: off kossh not. How dare he?

Whatever happened to Rishabh's cute Kookie Bajaj. Rishabh Bajaj rolled his eyes. Today was definitely not a good day for him. First, he had to deal with the kid who didn't want to go to school. And pretend as if he didn't see her sneak into a cafe to avoid school. And that his phone did not beep with notification of her coffee shop outing. Then he had to check her messages begging him not to block the card. Or send her home. That she really was attending class. He, of course, didn't reply and left her to chew her brains out in worry and panic. Served her right.

Couldn't she buy better, pricier food than the bland rubbish she was used to?

Then he had to deal with his toddler who didn't want to attend school.

OH GOOD LORD. Why and when did he -- Rishabh Bajaj -- get stuck in homely affairs like this? And for what reason?

So Kookie followed him to Priya ma's house. Of course, Rishabh knew it was to meet that boy who didn't call her when on vacation. On the agenda: Ignore Kookie beating his best friends baby up.

And then if that wasn't enough Kookie had to scrunch her face up, crawl herself into her daadi-ma's godhi and mumble little somethings about her Mommie. And every passing moment, Priya Bose glared at Rishabh a little more.

"Trust Kookie to stab her own back. Good for her. Rishabh wasn't going to involve himself. This is what happens when you give your kids too much freedom," he grumbled as he shuffled his food around his plate.

Then he smiled when he found his ear pulled by Priya. The pain was excruciating as Priya seethe, "Rishabh Advay Hritesh Bose Bajaj! How dare you live with a girl under the same roof as you? Unmarried?"

Rishabh winced as he pain in his ear got worse, "That's a mouthful. And there’s no Bose when you use Hritesh,"

Priya was flabbergasted. "Have I not raised you better?" she sighed and she threw her hands up in frustration. "Why do you have to repeat your parents' mistakes? My mistakes?"

"But look," Rishabh said, "You're happy!"

Priya Bose narrowed her eyes into tiny slits. Priya Bose’s happiness came at a price. And not everyone could be so lucky.

That evening Priya Bose, dressed in a heavily embellished green lehenga with an intricate shawl wrapped around her walked into the café Prerna was hiding in. She wore light makeup to cover her pale skin, her hair was styled in soft waves while her accessories were a heavy maangtika, one statement bangle, and huge pearl studs. Prerna Sharma found herself starstruck by the beauty of this older lady who didn’t look a day older than her mid-thirties?

Was this Kookie’s mom? Was she here to splash a beverage on Prerna’s face and ask her to disappear from Mr. Bajaj’s life? Why was this happening to her?

Prerna instinctively grabbed her beverage towards herself and gulped down the piping hot content. It was okay if she was splashed with water, she decided. Water was cool.

“Prerna Sharma?” the lady asked as she extended her hand, “Priya Bose.”

Prerna extended her hand as she meekly as she could.

“I’m Rishabh’s mother,” Priya stated.

Prerna gave the universe a side-eye. Did Mr. Bajaj hire an actress? Was she being punked right now? How could this pretty young lady be his mother?

“I had Rishabh in my twenties. His father and I were in between relationships and married for like a week before we called it quits. Marriages don’t really work for me.” She continued as she casually checked on the manicure she had gotten earlier that day.

Why did Prerna feel like she was stuck in an Ekta Kapoor serial with birth secrets?

Priya Bajaj scooted closer to closer to Prerna before she audibly whispered the most scandalous thing into Prerna’s ear in fake astonishment, “I heard you’ll are living together.”

Prerna stared at Miss Bose clearly flabbergasted. Or was it Mrs. Bose?

“I didn’t mind Rishabh’s life decision when he lived with my ex-husband and his new wife. But he is my responsibility now that they’re gone,” she sighed as if she didn’t uproot Rishabh six months every year and smother him with affection. She even skipped the part where she made up with her now-husband a few months after Rishabh was born and gave birth to Reyansh Bose Mishra.

“And after all the struggle that boy refuses to acknowledge my name. Can. You. Believe. It.” Priya gave Prerna a stiff smile. “Not that I reveal much. But you’re my daughter now. You ought to know the history. And as my daughter, you ought to return home with me. No living with boys before marriage even if the boy in question is my son.”

Priya got up to leave and expected Prerna to follow her suit. She sighed as she rolled her eyes. “I am not kidnapping you. Everyone in this city knows the both of us. Wouldn’t I be stupid to kidnap you in broad daylight?” And to add a dramatic twist, she leaned in and whispered: “When I get so much more done in secret?”

Prerna Sharma was convinced that Bajaj and his family had lost it at this point.

Kooki, on the other hand, waited at the doors of the Bajaj mansion scrunching her teddy closer to her. Why wasn’t her Mummy home? Well, not yet Mummy. But soon-to-be-Mummy as her aaya said. WHY WASN’T HER MUMMY HOME?

When her dad came home later that night she stomped towards him and glared at him as if to ask him: Where is my Mummy?

Bajaj sipped on his glass of water as he shrugged, “Don’t blame me. You’re the one who proudly went around telling everyone about your Mommy?”

Kookie looked like she was about to burst into tears. She didn’t know it was a secret? She pouted. She sulked.

“You can meet her at her University tomorrow,” Bajaj smiled sarcastically. “But wait, Kookie gets scared of kindergarten babies. How will she go to university?”

Kookie stared at her father. He was mean. In big alphabet. Big. Big. Big. Ones. She didn’t like him at all.

Kookie sulked as she walked to her room.

Rishabh Bajaj sighed as he served Kookie food. He went up to her room. He fed her the dinner as he exclaimed: “Look at you.” He sulked. “I feed you, take care of you, dote on you. Took care of you since birth, changed your stinky diapers and stayed up all night. And you see your mom and don’t like me at all.”

Kookie glared at him. And she hmphed away. And who was she to blame Papa was silly and didn’t bring Mumma home. Now how was Kookie to stay alone.

Kookino stayed up for most of the night that night as she rolled on her Papa’s couch surrounded by cushions in his study gossiping with her Mumma.

And Bajaj felt like he was side-lined by this Mumma – beti duo.

But they forgot it all depended on him. He gave Kookie a cheeky evil smile that both annoyed and panicked Kookie.

Forget Mumma, she lectured her Papa for the next few minutes in gibberish as Prerna sighed on the other side of the line. This was her life now.

She was blessed. Would anyone believe it?

“Shotgun marriage, Miss Sharma? Of course, shotgun,” Rishabh Bajaj gave Prerna Sharma a sarcastic sympathetic look as he sized her up. “The bun is out of the oven and out there terrifying at kindergarten boys.” Prerna smiled at Bajaj. No, she grinned as she watched her little Kookie stomp towards the class. She grabbed Bajaj’s arm, entangled hers in his as she whispered, “Haan, aakir beti kiski hai?” She flashed her rabbit teeth at him that could rival Bajaj’s stoic gaze. Who would believe these two were a couple?

Aww, my love. ❤️

Yes, I'm hoping it is! 😆 It is all over the place though. Hopeful edits after I finish it. And hopefully I finish it. I love Kookie. She's a little cutie. I picked this mainly coz of the trio. Bajju, Priyu and Kookie.

I'm worse at slow burns and romance. They give me jittery feels. I love it. But scared of them too. If it makes sense. Ayyeeeeeee. May heavens bless me with time management skills.

Thank you!!!!

The battle to change the name and Prerna won😆.

So Prerna left Basu to marry Bajaj. And thankfully, she is happy about it for a change. They shifted to an apartment and she calls him Bajju😆.

So he knows her before and she agreed to the deal for the money to save her family.

I liked Kookie and Big Kookie interactions. He needed a friend too apart from a mother for his daughter. Looks like Prerna doesn't know about Sneha being her biological daughter.

I love the banter between mother-beti. Priya is his mother. Interesting.

Nice updates. Please to continue soon.

Awww ..how sweet!!! ❣️❣️

It's awesome how you update frequently!!☺️really appreciate it.

And kookie is too cute and prerna is hilarious 😁😁
