Pride & Prej with a twist - Page 13

His mom is a big snob. 😡😡

I really hope there's a Wickam in the story

So he has a brother, not a sister. I hope at least the brother is genuine.

thanks for the warning” Anubha muttered

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm wondering if Mrs. Smrita becomes aware of inder and her darling son's stay with Naina and Viveka, how much sweeter she could get!

Satyan is the one nice person in the Parasher family. He is so down to earth, unlike the rest.

Law & Policy

“I will tell her off Akash” Anubha flipped thru the nextmorning’s newspaper

“Hmm”

“I know I know what you are thinking, she has to settlescores blah blah blah”

“Umm.. no” Akash just read the glossy supplement that camewith his Econ Times

“every interaction with her has been unpleasant”

“Contrary to the one with her husband”

“Umm.. yeah he is odd”

“He seemed OK” akash lowered his mag

“what was that all about? Introducing her to Viveka”

“Unko hamari Viveka bahut pasand aayi hai aur who agle hafteRishta lekar aayenge” Akash cracked himself up seriously

“Don’t even joke about it” Anu warned

She got up to pull the curtains apart

It was almost 6 AM

“I am still so sleepy Akash”

“Haan Sunday ko 2 baje taq apni nanad keg har rahogi to kyahoga”

“Nice” she smiled and went in to take a shower

“take the day off”

“Umm.. no… I promised Viveka I would go with her toKharagpur to check out IIT” “Tab leni hai mujhe 4 din ki chhutthi”

“Wah wah”

“Aap aaj Karuna ke who Lab ka issue solve kar dogey kya?”

He made a face

“Last week tumhare peechhe already main Diya Karuna kocollege se pick kiya drop kiya kyon ki Viveka se naraaz tha main”

“Baat to main bhi nahi kar rahi abhi zaroorat se zyaada” Anuwas upset again

“Give them a break” Akash sat on the bed and yawned

“I cant.. Savi ko jhooth bola maine, Kamal Bhaisaab ko bhi”

“How will they ever know… that’s not a lie” Akash spokeconfidently

“Apni moral responsibility bhi kuch hoti hai na Akash”

He nodded yawned again and began to doze leaning on the headboard

“Do you want to take the day off?”

“Umm.. bas 12 baje taq keh do” he settled in comfortably asshe went to take a shower

Anubha got ready fixed breakfast, since there was tons ofleftovers from Shrivastavs for lunch

She left early at around 7:30

The twins left with her

Naina didn’t usually leave until 10 and Viveka was up evenafter returning from Bua’s she noticed

She opened her door to check on her

Felt a surge of sympathy for being harsh to her yesterday

She was still wearing her glasses and a fat book was asusual open by her side the pages flapping under the gust of ceiling fan aircausing a a rhythmic stirring sound, she gently closed the book, it was asusual non fiction and about mid centuryIndia about women’s suffrage (right to vote movement)

She stood staring at her sleeping first born

She was mellow and cool like her husband. She loved feisty argumentson academic topics but was the least self aware of all her daughters

The Parashar boy last night was gorgeous, she hadn’t evenmade eye contact with him

“Raavin?” “Ranesh?” whatever his name was would have beensuch a great addition to their family. A lawyer and a economist

Anubha walked over to the balcony and stared out

Maybe I should talk to Akash about finding a lawyer for her.A MIDDLE CLASS ONE obviously that would be suitable for their family. Choosingthat haughty boy? Reprehensible!!

A lawyer would be such a good match for her to thrash outeconomic and social policy

Sigh!!

They always thought Naina would be the picky one and wouldtake years to decide on a suitable boy, but she had gone off to stay with a man

Viveka did not really care. She was confident and secure inbeing single a far cry from her early teen year when she was hugely consciousof wearing glasses, and worried she would look “ugly”

That was before she fell in love with books… maybe her eyeswere bothering her that’s why

She had blossomed into a bold articulate person, able tolaugh at herself when she was wrong, passionate about her cause, not worryingwhen people responded with hostility.

Amazing!

And then last week she goes off and lets her sister shack upwith a man

She shut the balcony door softly and spread a thin sheetover her and shut the door

Diya was checking herself out in every mirror in the apartment

“Ma… can we go to the Mall this weekend?:

“Umm… we’ll see, week ABHI SHURU HUI hai” she mumbled

Since she wasn’t talking to the girls much, she didn’t text them about Akash being home

Akash had gotten up around 8 AM to go to the bathroom and went off to thebalcony adjacent to the master bedroom and had lay down on the swing with thefan on to continue his magical unexpected nap day

The girls woke up, got ready, and Viveka left for JNU at 11ish

“I can give u a ride” she offered Naina

They had 3 cars, the one the kids drove was a Hyundai compact

Viveka picked up the keys from the living room chest of drawer without noticing Akash’s keys were in the brass bowl

“When are u wearing my suit?”

“Tumhe chahiye?” Viveka grinned

“Soweeee” Naina hugged her went in to wear it

Viveka checked her kajal in the living room mirror

“Not to bad” she mumbled at her grey Chanderi cotton saree with a fire red border

“Are u coming?”

“Umm.. no… just go” Naina spoke sheepishly

“Gawddd!! I already dislike you and you are not even married”

She went downstairs, walked out to the gate, and saw Raanav Parashar behind the wheel parked on the side of the road as she pulled out

She merged into traffic without looking

Inder entered the apartment and Naina and him started making out

Akash opened the bedroom door and stepped out at 11 AM and found his daughter on the couch with a man almost on top of her

Wohooo..!! 😲

Cant even imagine the scene

ohhh godd.. the level of embarrassment that would follow... i won't be able to look at my father for a long long time if sumthng like this happens😳

OMG!! How will Naina look at her father? I wonder, what Akash will do now? Will the Parashar's accuse Naina assuming that she called Inder on purpose to force his hand in marriage? It's getting interesting.

Guess Naina did not realize her dad was still home. Did Raanav drive Inder for this rendezvous?
