Casa II Part 17


19th Dec 2011
Tuesday’
9:02 pm
She had made strawberry souffle’ HIS fave dessert…… not on request… just like that……… she had returned from work @ 5ish……
She opened the frig to look at it…… it was pink creamy and inviting…
HL: Aapki bhindi, saadi hai, thodi mirch daal doon?
K: Mmm…mm…
HL: Shaan Baba ne BBQ chicken bola… main who(service) balcony mein grill check karke aata hoon, uske baad aapka souffle bahar nikal doon?
K: Hmmm
She turns away shutting the frig…….
Takes a small bowl and serves herself some juicy well cooked bhindi… its steaming hot… it singes her tongue…… she squealed in pain… Clamping a palm over her lips ………..she turns to the frig to grab water and notices the man from her thoughts had morphed into  flesh and blood and was looking at her from the dining table area…
They stood still… her tongue continuing to burn…
IF her eyes expressed gratitude at the concern that brought him near the kitchen…and IF he noticed it............... He did not show it…..
He turned and walked away…
She set the bowl of bhindi on the counter and did not go back to it………..
~~
Dadi: I thought bhindi was your fave beta…
K looks at Dadi and smiles
D: Thx for the smile… ab kha lo…
Shaan chews on his chicken… sitting an inch away from her… they both are civil to each other and pleasant to Dadi…..
D:She made your fave dessert this evening
K looks at Dadi like saying “Thanks for letting him know that, Dadi” in agony…… “whose side are you on? Mine or HIS”
Shaan is texting with his left hand…
Dadi: I thought there was a rule @ home about cell phones at dinner table?
S: Was there? (preoccupied, staring at his display)
D: Tchhh
S:Dadi I work in construction!
D: Even the labor gets to go home @ 7…
S: I came home at 7..
D smiled derisively “Funny”
HL brings the chilled souffle…..
D: Kisko doon pehle?
S: Not me!
K: I will have some Dadi…
D: Shaan:
S: Nachiket turned 33, so we had 3 cheese cakes and 3 chocolate @ work… I cannot look at another dessert…. (theatrical)
D:You hate cheesecake!
S:I know,  I had only two slices…
K is visibly bummed……..
She quietly eats hers though…..
D:Tum dono!!!
K: Jee? (startled, looked up at dadi)
D:I am on the verge of……….. (stops)
K: I can have more (if you are done pampering that brat of a grandson)
D: Sure hun!
K eats another bowl full…. It drizzles down her lower lip… she fumbles to find her napkin……… wealthy people eat with real cloth napkin…………. Dadi finds her a new funnel shaped one……..
He leans back to let Dadi reach for her……
S: I have to take a call at 10…
D: I don’t approve
S:Thanks!
Dadi smacks him soundly……
K realizes he wont come to bed………
~~
11:16 PM
Tuesday nite
Dec 19th 2011
She stacks two giant pillows on her side…. And buries her head……….. stares at the balcony door……… “its locked” ……….. “I hope”
She had left all the lights on in the room…….. she wondered if he was working in the study……….. “talking construction at midnite” “Serves him right”
She can hear foot steps……. Soft…….. she wants to turn to see if he is walking towards the bed………
But she doesn’t have to…………
The bed depresses on her side………… she turns……… he meets her eyes…… and leans back…… unmindful…….. he has his Mac book  in his hand……….. makes her FURIOUS………..
She turns… on to her back………..  a soft “Hmmppfff” escapes her lips………
He works… unmindful………….
She inserts her index finger between his Swatch strap and wrist and yanks…….
 The laptop slides……
“Tchh” she says…. Holding his watch and wrist………
She lets go gently…….
She has no idea where the power save key is…… she lets her fingers search on his lkey board………….his jaw drops as  He stares at the long slender fingers… carress the key board……. The diamond in her ring finger sparkles…
“I “ she says….
……and  she presses a random key…..
 “You must be out of your mind!” he manages hoarsely staring at her in anger mixed with arousal……
“I cant.. sleep” she admits…….. her hand on his…………..
He quickly hits the Escape key……with his other hand….... reversing the damage……
Slides off the bed… walks out of the room hitting out the lights with a tight “this should help (you sleep)”!!!

  1. Beautiful. No word or another.
    He didn’t give her any heed...even she made the effort to make his favourite dessert; it reminded me of the day when both kissed in Druv’s wedding and her gloss reminded him of the dessert. Sigh!!!
    I bet she is pursuing him more on the attempt of persuading him, so she can go to her parents! Lol! She is very smart especially when she wants something her way...
    Shantanuuuu...Sigh. He is the most ADORABLE when he is moping...even Dadi was exhausted in seeing both them ignoring one another like kids!
    They are kids themselves! I cannot picture them having one especially on this juncture.

    Her attempts of pacifying him was endearing...really! It reminds me of the day in Boston after she admits she cannot live without him and they go to eat later, she’s throwing a tantrum and he is fondling around her...but its role reversal now.
    And before he let himself go he walked out....I can imagine her blown off :P
    Blue and pink lines as always leaving a mark...challenging. Sigh!
    Her character has revolved immensely from the ice maiden to more compassion person...Now sleep invades her, coming from a person who never compromises...life does really revolve.
    I guess she has to do more than just this now...especially if she wants to go to her parents and let’s see how long he can hold back...
    P.S. Can she like pacify him for more longer? last season it was more of Shantanu offering end of war.

    Update sooonnnn please :)

  3. Oh! Lovely Update Aditee! :D

    She made HIS fav desert! :D Ofcourse.., 'Just like that' ;)

    So he DID come to her! :D

    I want her to approach him this time! Its always been him! It hurts to watch him avoid her, but its high time she should understand holding people away from you, and denying yourself love, that doesn't make you strong. if anything, it makes you weaker. *Sigh*

    Gawd! He had come to her, thinking she is ASLEEP! OR did Dadi sent him!? But I loved that part! I feel equally sad for both! He wanting to unfold her! But she would not let him! PERIOD! When he walked away, he made me think of a phrase.. "Angry, and tremendously in love with her, and half sorry, I turned away" *Sigh*

    There is something SO awesome about watching two people get more and more crazy about each other! :D

    "What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why,
    I have forgotten, and what arms have lain
    Under my head till morning, but the rain
    Is full of ghosts tonight, that tap and sigh
    Upon the glass and listen for reply,
    And in my heart there stirs a quiet pain
    For unremembered lads that not again
    Will turn to me at midnight with a cry.

    Thus in the winter stands the lonely tree,
    Nor knows what birds have vanished one by one,
    Yet knows its boughs more silent than before:
    I cannot say what loves have come and gone,
    I only know that summer sang in me
    A little while, that in me sings no more."

    Sighhhhhh!!!!

  5. she has to talk soon... she can be independent in solving them but it fells good to have a person to talk too.. hope she reaches out to Shaan..

  6. Wow!!! Awesome!!! Khanak made Shaan's favorite souffle and he didn't even taste it..:( how rude!!! LOL..He is more angry than ever.. He wants to know everything from her regarding her financial debts..but avoiding her too much when she is not!!!

    Shaan is now more stubborn than her!!! lights certainly didn't disturb her..;) Khanak just needs to say "Shantanu" and he'll just melt in it!!! LOL:D

    Looking forward and thanks for writing..:)

    Wishing you a very Happy Deepavali!!!

  7. sorry for being late aditee..
    im too tied up...you answered my questions in the most beautiful way, but still mujhe samaj mein nahi aa raha, that why that Vinod, had called Shaan, instead of Khanak?? she had left her phone at the house???
    OHHH...abb dono baat bhi nahi kar rahe hain:(
    He paid her bills, tit for tat:D ha ha ha!!
    Ritu's call, loved their convo:)
    Strawberry souffle:D i still remember his dialogue "You taste like Strawberry souffle, which i had for the desert" sigh!!!
    He's ignoring her to the fullest:(
    im sure, now he's walked out, Khanak will cry??
    And top to that,she's going to her hometown, and he doesn't know that...

  11. if you ask me aditee
    this was yet another bombastic update like Casa of the earlier times
    and the dialouges my god especially these:
    K saying He paid my installments
    Ritu saying mujhse mang leti and khanak:I have the money..lol
    and the one related to gawking hotties
    dialogues are for sure the strongest point of CASA
    lovely update
    liked the old feel of CASA in a new mood!

  12. Shaan is once again at fault
    but as you say characters are meant to be lively not righteous
    so I guess its ok
    but dont you think its a little bit more on the poor girl
    but then this is what she has chosen for herself

  13. loved it, hope Shantanu realizes when she goes off to Maakya again lol
