Nividances😳😭
"Abhi Dad ko batana padega Tan" Sam was almost shaking in fright
"Yaar Manya" Tan rubbed his shiny bald pate
Lasya smacked it, sending a sliver of drool down
Tan made a disgusted face
"Pakden is ko aap" he ordered his wife
"I am sorry" Sam whispered
"Its OK yaar... Manya aap to ghar chalo"
"u dont have to defend me I can talk to Dad mujhe kisi ka dar nahi...
he is just using Dimpal's job in Paris to arm twist us" Manya acted like it was a bloody North Korea US war
"Jo bhi hai, Dad ko suljhaane deti, woh already unko keh chuka hai usko bhejega nahi kal" Sam warned
"So good no? I made his life easier" Manya shrugged smugly
"Tu baat ko samajh nahi rahi hai"
Lasya cried loudly... hungry
"Tum dono ladne band karo, jo karna tha woh kar chuki" Tan warned
"Mr Iyer is going to use Manya's defense and say "tradition demands the daughter needs to be at parents house'
"I told him he will be back for delivery" manya said
Sam clamped her hand over her mouth "Toone bata diya? Usne kisi ko nahi kaha II ko chi nahi maloom hai tujhe?"
Sam looked at Tan, he did a SMH
"Khaane kaun aa raha hai? Vandu came
She looked at their faces and was confused
Tan reached and grabbed baldie "Aaaja mere lal, tu bhi ganja main bhi" he kissed the cute skinny baby
Shubhang smiled at Tan
"Kuch sikhao apni beti ko kal kisi ke ghar jaayegi, hasti nahi... ladaku kahin ki"
he smacked his daughter "Isko dekho, sundar susheel aur ganja" Tan laughed, channeling some Desi sterotypes
Sam agreed wholeheartedly "Bigdee ladki hai" she made a face looking at lasya
Lasya strongly disagreed, who says babies dont understand languages
Vandu smacked him
"I hope Ishita's baby is fully bald" she cursed
"Chances kam hai boss" Tan tapped her cheek "Dono ka baal dekha? baalon ki dukaan" he looked at R&B
"Mujhe lagta hai yaha se jaakar kat waata hoga, aur yahan jaan bhoojkar lambe karke aata hai" "Saala ekdum zehreela" "Uski behen ko maayke bhejta hoon daat kar" he winked
"I will kill u" Vandu said
"Oye shabaash... apni rakhi sister ki raksha" Tan winked
He grabbed Vandu's hand "Yeh haath mujhe de de Vandu"
"Tannn... its all Iyers... kya sochenge" Sam squeaked
"Jo bhi keh yaar yeh saari Iyer ladkiyan cute hain" he smiled hugging Vandu
Vandu smiled amused, "Chalooo" she ordered
Manya grunted
"Aapne kiya arti?" she turned and asked
"Oh ya... she is wearing so many garlands I doubt she could see me" Manya said
"Its full blown Iyer" Vandu said smiling
"i want something like this Tan" Sam complained
"Untie ur tubes my love"
Vandu laughed hysterically
They all ate, and by the time the hoopla was over it was 4 ish... II dozed in a corner, in a not so comfy chair
R&B made a few trips to MM, two aunts from Punjab were here with their husbands...
Only Chachu had come with two sons and their wives, Chachi had skipped it
He came back from MM, and found her asleep, and abandoned
Her feet up on a steel chair, and she sat on one wrapped in Amma's shawl
He kneeled by her and rubbed her cheek, chandan and haldi crumbs fell off
"Forget something?" she teased, in a husky sleep drugged voice
"I think so" he whispered, helpingher sit up straight
"Wheres everybody" she asked scanning the now empty quiet hall
"I took the family home" he said, shrugging
"Amma Appa and Vandu ka were wrapping up, Sam had to go since Lasya was being a pain" II explained
He nodded
"Nandu Shravu tired of rock climbing yet?" he asked half smiling
"Appa was super angry" II shuddered
II had no idea Amma Appa had a show down over what he had told Manya
"how can u say something like that?" Amma was apalled as they ateon the giant banana leaf
"Avan maasathla 28 naal naatla iruka maatan, avanukku vanda odanne pondaati venum" (He wont be in the country 28 out of 30 days, when he is here, he wants his wife)
"Are u even listening to ur logic? U are actually making a case for HIM" Amma mocked
Appa fumbled and grunted and fumed
"Why should we break tradition I say?" Appa raised his voice
"Lets talk tactfully to Mr Ranjan, these youngsters will be like that only" Amma grunted
"Did Ishita also wnat to stay in Malcha Marg?" Appa was furious
"How will she come, he has come last nite only"
"Enna mantaram panninano" Appa cursed (Wonder what spell he has cast on my child) shaking his head...
"How come you did not sing?" he asked his wife softly pulling up a chair beside her
"Amma ke best friend ho kya?" II asked upset
He chuckled
"I am told u shud have sang" he teased
She smacked him
"Dey lets go home da, looks like my family forgot me da" II scanned the room, looking sad
"No" he said firmly... looking at the back of her flower adorned head ...deeply
Ranjan had intercepted R&B not too long ago when he was helping Tan load gifts from the Iyers into Ranjan's trunk
His Ferrari trunk didnt hold much...
"Puttarjee, Mr Iyer wants us to send her to RK Puram" he said
"Ive spoken and told him... we cant do that" he said in his signature soft spoken style
"Tey unanu kee dassan?" Ranjan panicked
"shes going to Malcha Marg" R&B said quietly
"Tu chahe ruk jayin RK Puramch?" Ranjan offered generously
"Shes really tired" R&B said firmly
"Mr Iyer nu manaana koi asaan kaam tey hai nahi bilqul wi" Ranjan lingered begging his son for help
"I can go tell him!!?" R&B offered
"Tere kehen di koi load nahi"Ranjan quickly back tracked fearfully
"Do I get a bath and a nice sandwich for dinner?" she asked softly
He pulled her hands and examined the gorgeous glass bangles stacked as far back as her elbow, he gently thumbed through them feeling the glass
"Pretty" he said softly
"He seems to love it" she smiled, insisting it was a boy
She was now wearing a saree Vandu had gifted her in dark green and luscious yellow... a traditional kanjeevaram
Ii shook her arms, and he watched Nivi dance...🤗
