Saturday March 3rd
The day after Holi
She served breakfast to her parents, as she made paranthas
for Dadi, Dadi was in the pooja room, smell of incense wafted all the way to
the kitchen, Khanak quietly plotted going to work for a few hours today…
Bai and Aada were leaving on Sunday….to Hinjewadi, then a
week later to Amdawad
Her husband hadn’t returned at night…
She worried about Ram just as she wondered what the Ulwe
site looked like now…
Sanjay was her permanent pain ofcourse…
Kaka’s Doc visit was on Monday….. depending on course of
treatment Bai and Aada will either stay on longer or retrun…
HL: Bhabi… ek aur roti?
K:Sab ne khaa lia?
HL:Sir abhi aaye nahi
HL:Who to bacon khaate hai na
HL:Bade Sir (he grinned his toothy smile)
K:Oh! Sorry!
HL smiled… the “bhabhiji” just did not talk much… Khushboo
bhabhi walked all over the house and was on the phone all the time, Khanak
bhabhiji just chatted with Ritu Didi and her parents…
HL:Sir bhi aa gaye…
She didn’t turn around, she knew…..
He didn’t say a word, he was dressed in navy shorts and a
grey v neck cotton tee with some rock band insignia on it…
His hair was wet, he wore shoes in the kitchen, he seemed
taller… but more importantly…. FURIOUS………….
“HL is making your bacon” she said quietly
“I want to have a word with you Khanak” firm…
“Kis baat par she asked without turning from the HUGE
stainless steel gas cook top…. It had eight burners, and a grill, and a skillet
all attached…
He shut the one she cooked on…
“Sha…” she stopped as she realized HL was in there, staring
curiously at “Junior Sir” and “Khanak Bhabhiji”
“NOW Khanak” he hissed…
Bai came in “Khanak I need more of that mango achar..”
She shut up completely at the sight of her son in law…
He just smiled and nodded…
“Bai and I” began Khanak…
“Its fine” he said carelessly without letting her complete…
“Thanks, I was planning to go to Pune for the weekend” she
smiled…
“He did not smile or play along… he was pissed…
She followed him to the room…
The wet towels were on the bed… some new shipment was
unpackaged all over the lounge and bed area
“Shantanu” she groaned…
“When is Sonali leaving?”
Her heart skipped a beat she turned around startled…
“Kkkyon?”
I asked FIRST Khanak” hands tucked into his pocket, he
appeared arrogant, snobbish, like the first time she saw him by the elevator…
distant…
“Pata nahi, I “ I can send her away if it bothers you”
defensive AND livid, her voice trembled like it always did…
She put more distance between them mentally and physically…
“Thanks for doing that” he was firm, as he started looking
for something in the huge chest of drawers…
“Where is that Audio sound book”
“I don’t know” she said beginning to cry..
“Whats wrong?” he asked irritated..
“Bai Aada ko bhi bhej doon?”
“8mm interchangeable lens is missing too. I left it out in
the balcony on Tuesday nite, quit organizing my things” he sound angry
Their temps were rising…
“I am going to pack”
“Like hell you are” he turned and grabbed her and placed her
by the wall…
She struggled… as he stared, hissing…
I was in the shower, or braely out of it, she walked into
your closet and started going over your things”
A guilty flush bathed khanak in its red glow…
“I”
Yes that’s right, shut up completely and don’t say a word”
“Maine” she began…
“She proceeds to walk into my closet I am picking my
clothes, and she leans on the wall grinning like a”
He stopped, Khanak was embarrassed…
“She is a kid, she needs to get OVER IT” he was disgusted…
“She is 19, only 6 years younger” Khanak was offended…
He was amused at his wife’s attempt to be younger…
They bothe checked each other out…
“She is”
“Harmless?” he barked…
“I”
“I don’t care for her Khanak” he almost leaned, letting her
know through his body who he wanted instead…
She stiffened… angrily…
“I”
“Tell her to KNOCK” “Tell her my closet is out of bounds,
this ROOM is out of bounds”
His scent mingled with hers, the spicy condiments she just
used downstairs…
It shamed her to realize her cousin had the hots for her own
husband and HE KNEW ABOUT IT …
She shut her eyes…
She cringed….
“I have a meeting at the Corp Office at Noon” he continued…
as if he didn’t care to talk about Sonali anymore…
She wanted to know the exact details of what transpired…
what was said… what actions happened…
He wouldn’t divulge anything…
She was too ashamed to open her eyes…. His eyes spit fire…
at that statement… he stepped back as she opened her eyes slowly to look at him…
Khanak wondered if he thought, this was her idea somehow…
“Its not how we snare rich guys” Khanak muttered…humiliated…

ReplyDeleteWhere do you come up with dhamakdaaar updates?
Ughhh! I feel like hitting Khanak with a vase...she needs to be SPEAK! She keeps quiet and people like Sonali take it as granted!
Khanak needs to be stern instead of being defensive about EVERYTHING to do with her family! Even Ritu mentioned to the same!
Thank you! I knew the guy noticed Sonalis flattering behaviour...HE IS RIGHT! Khanak needs to TELL Sonali to back off! She cannot stay quiet all the time and what sonali did was trespassing someones private space! Its kinda of horrible...
Ughh! Ughhh! Im disgusted by Sonali behaviour it was too much...too shocked to comprehend on she actually sneaked in the room!
I love him! He is straight to the point call it being stuck-up or arrogant but he is honest!!
AND the line at the end was shocking...shes taken the wrong turn again HE knows Khanak wont stoop low!
UPDATE SOOOON aditee!!
Loved the update..:) Khanak cooked paranthas for her parents..Awww!!! Shaan didnt return the whole night..His dedication to work is amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteHL and Khanak were talking about Shaan and the man himself walks in front!!! Liked how she didnt turn at first to see him..:)
He is furious and wants to talk to him immediately!!! Khanak's bai stopped talking when she saw her SIL with her daughter..:)
She wants to go to Pune..lol..:D And he wants Sonali to leave..She is just so annoying..:x
He shouted angrly and she started to cry..Awww!!! She mistook him..That he wants Khanak's parent too to go from there..
OMG!!! How dare Sonali walk in ShaNak room and closet when they were away!!! :O No manners whatsoever!!! :x After seeing Shaan like that she went to his closet and started grinning!!! There is a limit to all!!! Is she planning to seduce and marry him or what??? :X Dream on Sonali!!!
Shaan has all right to be livid and furious!!!
Khanak needs to stop defending her cousin..She is definitely not a kid!!! :x
Shaan only cares for Khanak!!!♥ He is right she should talk with Sonali and tell her not to come into their room and give good advice..Though doubt she will hear any of it..
She is so ashamed coz of her cousin..Awww..Shaan wont divulge anything..Khanak is complicating things..Why he gonna think its her idea???
Last line by Khanak gonna send Shaan to the edge!!!
How can Khanak bring herself on the lines of Sonali ??? :O
