Mangal Kunj
“She was on a plane the next day” Shaan bit out in Punjabi
as well…
“And you are now jealous of a dead man?” Sunil stared at his
son… as Shaan gulped burning hot coffee without flinching…
Shaan met Sunil’s penetrating look without fear, speaking of
being cocky….
“Bah”(“You are insane” he meant)
“She wants to take care of unfinished biz, and instead of
throwing your complete support behind her, you disappear completely
“They could have handled it without her” Shaan argued
“Ma tell your laadla to quit arguing” Sunil hissed in
Punjabi
“Why?” “Because you approve of her trip?” Shaan questioned
in Punjabi as well
“Did you call her?” Dadi asked in the same language
“I have not” Shaan admitted coolly
“They need to pen a book, “Million ways to separate” Sunil
mocked in Punjabi
Shaan was startled “I” he paused
“ That’s exactly whats going to happen. You keep at it
SHANTANU! She is prickly and adamant and pig headed, usko tera paisa, teri
status se koi matlab nahi.” Sunil declared
They all realized something unexplainable bound them
together… Shaan labeled it as “insanely physical”…………. Dadi and Sunil guessed
as much from their son’s look…
Dadi cleared her throat… looking to serve her son breakfast….
“She is like a child. She needs to be pampered” Sunil said
firmly…
“Sunil, please let go beta” Dadi begged
“He probably didn’t many ANY travel arrangements… she is up
to her neck in debt (gesticulates), so she must be on a bus somewhere” Sunil
shuddered
It made Shaan furious imagining ogling eyes all over his
wife…
He stood up, shoved the chair back under the table…
Grabbed his keys and phones….
“Tera bacon aa raha hai puttar”
“Feed Dad” he spits out…
Sunil drinks his coffee quietly
Dadi sits down…. Weary…
“I worry about them” she says aloud
“He is an idiot”
“She is way too principled” Dadi defended her grandson…
“So do you remember?” she stood in front of him hands on her
hips as he played some game with Akhil… remotely… the rec room a mess…. Food,
newspapers, gadgets… everywhere…
“What?”
She stood between the TV and him…
“Shantanu, aaj Thursday hai”
“Khanak PLEASE, give it a rest… can u fill my drink”
She emptied the last spoonful in her mouth
“There” she said smugly…
Just as he pulled her on the couch…
“Shantanooooo” as her breath was knocked out…
Akhil appeared on video “Ahhem… Excuse me… voyeur alert,
excuse me ogler alert”
Shaan grinned “See you man”
Akhil disconnected
As he smothered his wife………….
“That was my last swig of SOR you witch” he covered her lips
with his own…….
She fought him…
Her tee landed on his empty glass…
“Shantanu aapko yaad bhi hai?” pushing his head away…
“ See I always go for the lef”
“Shut up” she squirmed…
They savored and relished….
“Shantanu… the WEDDING” she begged hoarsely in his lips
“Whose”
“Meri local friend”
His chin dug into her chest….
“Only if you will go to the wedding” she bargained… as his
hands reached lower purposefully
“ I promise”
“You are a fibber” she groaned…as he imprisoned her hands over the arm rest....
People stared at him,
neighbors returning from morning walk, young mothers with babies in 1000
dollar strollers returning from jogs….
“Day dreaming Gujral?” Mr Sood asked
“Is it so obvious?” he chuckled as he stepped out and headed towards his
VW Toureg, his expression changing quickly from fake pleasantness to rage as his thoughts went to the object of his dreams...
Please tell me that, he's going to get her?!

Aditeeeeeeeee! LOVING CASA! Everyone says a love story is the best during the attraction phase and after the ILY it just dies! BUT Casa proves it wrong DEFINITELY!
ReplyDeleteSunil is throwing some hard hitting lines! He is correct in so many ways…both need to tame down to let go some of that ego and stubbornness
Damn it! Both are still together as they care its just not physical but both are pigheaded to accept it!
The flashbacks leaving me yearning for this couple to TALK! Cant he just call her to make sure she is okay…
PI'm loving this PHASE! Its so true their fights brings so much out of their relationship and as a reader you get to see the depth of this relationship!

ReplyDeletesunil correct hai she always wanted him to spend time with her and love obviously but his just so busy :((
hopefully after sunil lecture he gives her time and also dadi is right she is too principled the only way it will work if both let go of some of their habits :(((
