Hey people :)
So it looks like our lion got his mane cut off (heh heh…that's how my sister describes him, a lion…with the deep voice and mane like hair—the image is sort of stuck in my head 😉 😆).
Anywayz, the moment I saw the short hair, my first thought was "oh no…! all that lovely hair…gone!" 😭
And the second was, how will Tapps and Mukta react to it??
So this is a (really)short FF on how Tapasya and Mukta's reaction will be.
It's unedited, so if you find any mistakes, don't mind…😃
And what do you think of his new hair cut??
happy reading 😃

"Oh my god! What have you done?!"
"Oh wow…your hair, papa!"
Talk about a dramatic entrance!
Smiling sheepishly, he sticks his hand into his pocket and patiently accommodates them as they turn him around, trying to get a better look at his new hair cut.
"You cut it all off…?" Tapasya asked, sounding shocked.
"He looks good Ma…the shorter hair suits him" Mukta says with a smile, seating herself on the bed while Tapasya continues to stare at her husband.
"It's just hair Tapasya…it'll grow back" he says nonchalantly, running his fingers through his hair. "And besides, it's not the hair that makes the man."
"But I'll miss those curls" she replied, pouting. "And you look good with long hair"
Eyebrows raised, he grabs her hand and pulls her close, whispering playfully "so I still look good to you then, huh?"
"I…erm…that's not—" she stuttered, smiling shyly and trying to break free. At the sudden loud "ahem ahem" they both froze.
Her hand covering her eyes, Mukta says "not to break your romantic bubble or whatever, but do you mind waiting until I leave?" she asks in a teasing tone.
Reluctantly releasing Tapasya, he drops down on the bed besides Mukta and nudges her with his shoulder. "Too late…you ruined my moment" he says with an over dramatic sigh.
Smiling, Mukta winks conspiringly at her papa and says "you know what papa? I think you should come to pick me up from college tomorrow."
"Why's that princess?" He asks, playing along with her and tugging at a lock of her hair.
"I think it'll be interesting to hear what they say about you new 'do".
Seating herself besides her husband and daughter, Tapasya leans back comfortably against the bed's headrest and scoffs at Mukta's remark. "They wouldn't even notice….they'll be too preoccupied watching the handsome young men around them to notice your papa's hair cut."
"Oh I wouldn't bet on that," Mukta says with a laugh. "Some of them are already crushing on him; and this shorter hair cut makes him look so much younger. He can pass for my elder brother!"
Sitting up straight, Raghuvendra Rathore straightens his collar and wiggles his eyebrows at Tapasya, a teasing smile lighting his eyes.
But she wasn't reacting; watching them with a passive face, almost as if she knew that they were trying to rile her up; to make her let out the green monster.
And then, after a long moment of silence, in which time both the father and daughter wondered if their plans had failed, Tapasya finally spoke.
"I'm picking you up from school until your papa's hair grows." She says with finality, making them burst out with laughter.
