Tee-totaling Alcoholic😃
Chachu and Emad came by upon hearing Ranjan was sick. Chachu was just looking for a free, good meal as usual
Chachi had rationed his food supply at home and he used every opportunity to "supplement" his food and booze calories
Booze flowed freely at the Bhallas, it was common knowledge among the Chanakyapuri circle
II was overwhelmed the house was filling up with people when he was so sick
"We should all just eat first, R&B had done telling Mr S and B about Ranjan's health
II went to check on him, he slept on his side in the guest bedroom, looking sad and vulnerable, II paused by his bed staring down
she felt it his forehead it was still burning hot
Clear juice of many kind sat on the bed stand
"dad juice doon kya?" she asked
He smiled and shook his head"Main yaha se nahi jaaoongi I want u to have some"
She stood her ground
He weakly turned to his back she proppe dhim up with pillows and let him sip slowly with a straw, he drank almost half a glass of clear grape
She pulled the covers over him
"He changed the sheets in your room, waha chalenge kya?" she asked caringly
He shook his head
She didnt tell him the lawyers were here, he would GET UP and walkd down, he was really terrible that way... she knew
She returned 20 minutes later to find everyone seated at the table
The food Mahavir makes was unquestionably delicious meal after meal, there was malai kofta karhi,
jeera rice and phulkas, and home made vegetable achar and strawberry raita, that just tasted like a dessert to II
R&B noticed the dude reach for a Kingfisher at lunch, II had completely forgotten about the tall claims Peaches made a week ago, between stressing over
Ranjan and trying to make sure unexpected lawyers were fed lunch
Tan came first followed by Sam and Lasya, in a denim skirt and a halter neck blouse in pink, her chunky creamy arms exposed so II could take a bite, her head was wrapped
in a band of the same color with a giant rose on the side.
II reached for Lasya, Tan sat down to eat, Manya was still not home, Sam looked upset she wasnt told about Ranjan
Ii apologized, sheepishly
"I am sorry mujhe call karna chahiye tha Dad teased me that I didnt complete the analysis so after Manya left I just spent a couple hours doing that"
"To yeh kal ja raha hai?" she asked
Lasya leaped into her arms and reached for the black beaded jhumkas, pulling
She was teething so really crabby, she had even lost some weight
"CHO CHWEET" "U dont come see Mami anymore?"
"Haan uske paas gaadi hai aur woh party animal hai" Sam was sarcastic
"i am sorry Sam" Ii begged
"Where is he? I cant imagine the dining table without him" she looked really sad
II took her to the guest bedroom
"YAHA kyon?" she was upset
"Umm.. he threw up so" II mumbled
Sam cried and sat by him, he slept quietly
Ii didnt take Lasya into the room for the sake of infection
"How come u are letting him go tomorrow?" Sam demanded angrily
Ranjan woke and smiled at her
"HOW ARE U DAD?" "Mujhse koi kuch nahi kehta" she whispered
"Yeh hai na, the eternal caregiver" Ranjan pointed to II
"Thats fine... but I am ur daughter too"
Ranjan chuckled "I am happy I am getting all the attention"
"Shut up Dad, NO JOKES" she ordered
"Khaana khaya? Mahavir ne karhi banayi bata raha tha" he said weakly
II's eyes filled up with tears
R&B was done with lunch he came in, "U JERK" Sam punched him and then hugged him
Lasya acted like she has been injected with a speeding drug, she took off almost falling off II's arms
Upon seeing R&B
"WHAT IS IT ABOUT HIM?" Ii asked Lasya furiously
Lasya looked at her like "Have you looked at him? I mean have you really LOOKED AT HIM?" Hes tall, and has a stubble and more hair than I"
"Peanut" he called she was DELIGHTED
Though he was inside chatting with his sister, he wandered out holding the baby
"The tee-totaling alcoholic is looking for you" he told II silkily
Ii looked at him confused... and found the expression in her husband's eyes to be quite unlike whats shes seen thus far
