The Quill Part 2- - Page 2

Yaaayyy ! Awesome Nisha. Congrats 🎉💕

And then there’s him!

Did he have any idea she might be there? Does he know she likes the place?

Her friends are full of good advice. How much of it will be followed?

Food love

Common food love. He took care to order two of them to go too.

He actually did lock up the food? He called her dare. He loves playing with her.

He plays her. She plays him right back. No wonder they are attracted to each other.

Clawing

Nothing for Pia, but something for Tara from the trip. He thought of her.

Thanks you guys..... so very much!! This is so so fun for me

He bought a gift for his wife….so cute. 

Looking out

“I thought Oberoi was your favorite?” Pradyut leaned forward to grab another triangle sandwich

“Veer and I have been her too many times, I am looking for hole in the wall places” Pia grumbled

“Pia eating street food?”

“I eat street food, if I know its hygienic”

“A big IF” he chuckled “Umm.. I..” he shook his head and did not finish the sentence

“What?? Are you suddenly chhapri now?” she mocked

He kept his smile

“U are aren’t ya?”

“No we are talking about you”

“No we are talking about YOU” she flashed a smile

“No YOU are talking about Taaruni Bhushan” he said losing his smile

“I doubt she eats at five star hotels”

“Umm.. I don’t know about that, but we should let her enjoy the kind of food she wants”

“U are not answering the question but are putting me in my place” “Wow” Pia flicked her hair back

Her Prada purse, her Cartier jewels couldn’t have all come from her Physician’s salary, much came from Veer’s Towers Partners paid him handsomely Pradyut realized

Leaning back and thoughtfully

“You can judge her privately all you want Pia…. I married her, under however dubious circumstances”

“So you cant be actually defending her”

“I am defending my choice” “By insulting her you are insulting my choice”

“Your choice of marrying her the circumstances aren’t exactly praiseworthy” she giggled sipping her wine

“Well… its my life right?”

“Sure… but that would be OK if she never met Mum & Dad… she practically lives there”

“How so?”

“She spent the night there two days ago”

“That’s every night?”

“C’mon, you know how sappy our parents are”

“No I don’t tell me!!”

Mum’s having a couple couture designers visit this weekend so she can be measured for outfits”

“And?”

“U insist its some sort of legal thingamajig but Mom’s on her way to adopting the…”

“Puppy from the shelter? He was amused by her acid tongue

“I just don’t want Mom’s heart broken”

“Noble!!”

“You have no idea how you’ve crushed Mom’s dreams”

“Since we are one upping each other I will say “I haven’t crushed it any more than ur refusal to give her grandkids” he smiled fully

“I hate kids”

“Yeah that should make her happy” he nodded mischievously

“MERI baat nahi ho rahi Prad”

“Oh sure… me then?” “Go ahead”

“She is everywhere doing everything with Mom”

“Oh sorry this is not about me, but about Taara.. Taaruni I forgot”

“Don’t be sarcastic” “If u didn’t get urself in a legal mess we wont be here today”

“Are u dropping a rope into the well for me?” he laughed

“U have no idea… you might end up giving her half ur assets”

“U worry for me” he mock cried

“Keep an eye on her”

“Oh I will”

“U will thank me”

“How about you in exchange, quit needling her?”

Pia just glared
