Penance & PityðŸ˜
They were at Sam's until after midnight, eating, drinking and laughing
Makarand DID NOT drive over to MM
Much to II's amazement
Noone asked for her opinion so she didnt share it but found it was quite interesting that Manya was coy and generally well behaved around him
There was no difference in her behavior toward II though...
II avoided her company and stayed with Ranjan and Nandan during dinner
She sang to Lasya in the sun room and watched her fall asleep
"I will always have mysinging" she whispered in the lil girl's ear
She giggled thinking II was teasing her
And then thought "If u have ur singing I will learn some talent u will never be able to acquire, even right now my skin is smoother than yours"
Podi" II hissed crushing her as she slowly fell asleep
"We shud quit fighting and learn to share him" II whispered
"Thats what adults say when they want to steal something usually" Lasya smirked
II went to bed as R&B was downstairs hanging with Manya
Sam had given her enough food for lunch tomorrow
"MAY BE I CAN TAKE SOME TO AKKA'S?"
OMG!!!
I WAS SUPPOSED TO GO THERE
OMG!!!
AYYO
II dropped her phone on the stairs, as she fumbled
She picked it up and began texting furiously
"I AM SO SORRY KA" she wrote
To NO response
She changed and went to bed
And tossed and turned most of the night
Texted Amma at 5 AM to check on the baby and Akka's MIL
Amma was fast asleep she woke up with a start
"Ennadi nee" (whats wrong with u?) Amma texted
"amma how is Akka's MIL?" she asked
"Ishita in ur condition u shudnt worry too much raja"
"Amma"
"U saw her last nite no? She is an old lady things will improve slowly only" Amma reassured
"amma I frgot to go" II texted
And sat up
Waking the dude
"whats wrong II?" he asked
She dropped the phone in fear of what Amma might text next
"Ayyo... hmmm" Amma texted
"amma Akka is not respdngg"IImessed up the spelling
R&B got up and leaned over, pulling her on his chest
"II" he ordered gruffly
"Nee toongikko" she ordered (U go back to sleep)
"I am awake I cant now" he whispered, letting his hand stray under her tee
"Vidu da" she ordered
Falling on him
"amma will u call Akka and tell her?" she begged, smothered under her husband
Once, twice, thrice, they hungrily sipped and tasted each other
"When did u come to bed?" she asked kissing his cheek
"4 AM" he said
She hugged him tight
"Toongu kanna"(sleep my love) she cooed
"Where do u plan to sneak off?" he nuzzled
"I promised Akka I NEVER WENT"
II sat up, dragging him with her
She let him get his fill...
"I can give u a ride
"NO. I will takemy car" she said firmly
He let her go reluctantly
When she showered and dressed for workcursing herself furiously
She kissed him goodbye and left at 6:22
Picked up every snack, sweet and fruits and things she cud find in the MM frig
Rushed to Akka's
Both Athim and Akka werent home, Kamakshi Athai fed baldie on the living room couch wrapped in 5 shawls
It was COLD
Ii realized
Shravu sat with his Bournivita... SULKING
His eyes lit up when he saw II
"CHITHEEE" he jumped up
Shubhang started to cry loudly
Thatha made his way out of the bathroom
And took the newspaper from II's hand
II set everything down
"Not ready kanna?" she asked caringly
"Athai Paati made my Bournita COLD and it has no sugar" Shravu cried missing Vandu
"Where is Amma kanna?" Ii asked
"she went to see Paatti, Appa did too"
Kamakshi Athai dozed as she fed baldie, no use talking to her II decided
She walked over to Thatha
"Epdi iruka paati" (how is she?)
"Teriyale!! I just woke" Thatha said confused, more interested in Kejriwal
He flipped pages
II heated Shravu's bournvita, added sugar
Cut out banana bread and blue berry bread out
Made Thatha's coffee, took baldie and put him down for a nap
Fixed Shravu's bath
Got him ready
When she was walking him down to the bus sto[
Akka made her way up wearily
Her eyes almost sparkled, and died down quickly
"I will drop him at the bus stop and come seriya?" II asked eagerly
Akka did not smile back
Shravu was busy playing on II's phone
Nandu had downloaded a game last night
"Hes too cute ka, he was sitting there with his Bournvita, it was too cold and had no sugar" "Paavam ka" (poor baby)
"He doesnt need ur pity Ishita" Akka said firmly, paused, as if to say something else and just went up
II let Shravu walk half way to the bus stop... STUNNED
And followed him, as her vision blurred eyes filled up with tears
