Part 4
Really, Kavya?
Regret?
You, regret?!
The regret is all mine!
Seeing the sheer stupidity of your actions and listening to your wholly illogical theories, makes my head reel. Do you even have this much vaunted MBA you keep banging on about?
I shudder to imagine what the lot of them must think about me. Just to be clear, you were not walking on the path I had lit with big neon signs. Please, for the love of God, tell them folk of your wilful forays into the wilderness. You may not do, but I do have a reputation to protect.
And a daughter to win back, dammit!
Oh, the ignominy of it all. Deviousness is a fine art, and timing is everything. What you’ve done goes against every tenet of deceit. I’m utterly furious. A futile exercise since it’s you, but still. I’m furious.
Why would you be swayed by anything Anupama says? I mean, does anyone actually listen to what she says anymore? Aren’t they mere words that pass smoothly from one ear to the other without meandering anywhere near the brain?! There is a certain pitch shift in her voice which says, savdhan, bhashan on the way. Time to reach for the switch off button for any listener. I had assumed you’d be au fait with it by now.
I should have known better. It’s my fault for not dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. Never assume anything where you’re concerned. Let alone assume that you have even a passing acquaintance with common sense. There is a saying that when you’re in a hole, stop digging. Not hire a digger and have at it!!!
I’m so done with Kavya, peeps. Guess it’s back to the imbecile son-in-law. Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place. Yup, I am referring to what resides between both their ears.
I see that awful smug look has resurfaced on Mr Shah’s face. Ugh! I much prefer the breathing fire and brimstone one, complete with buttons ready to pop, and veins following suit. That one tickles me to no end. Gives me endless hours of fun visualising him actually imploding. My own walking talking cartoon network.
As an aside, can someone please ask him to either do up one more button or wear a vest with a deeper neck. That peeking vest look he sports drives me mad. No, stop! I didn’t mean for you to have a word, Kavya. Did I mention timing earlier?
Speaking of looks, how can I not mention a certain Mr Kapadia. He looked rather fine as he took up cudgels on behalf of his lady love. I understand there was much excitement at their pas de deux of the previous day? That black kurta he was sporting was certainly rather fetching. Nothing wrong with his timing is there? That Veet advertisement was rather fortuitous!
If I were to look for silver linings, seeing Anuj Kapadia in full on power wielding mode would be rather delightful. Go on Kavya. Take that swing that you’re dying to ;) (Just to be clear and dot the i’s and cross the t’s, Kavya, I don’t mean the jhoola!)
Oh and Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary to you, Baa and Bapuji. That is some progeny you will be leaving as your legacy.
