Chapter 10. 'They Hardly Talk.'

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Karuna, relax! Even if the news gets leaked which we know will happen soon no matter how much we try to hide it, we can't shut every mouth you know that well. Right? But the security is tight so no need to worry about anything, trust me!" He says trying to calm her down.

Vihaan starts chewing on his breakfast slowly as he finds his parents arguing about his sister's safety, again.

"How can I relax?! You are not being serious for her safety!" She says complaining to which Vineet frowns angrily and says putting down his spoon, "I am not being serious?! For God's sake Karuna, she is my daughter too! How can you think like that?!"

Vihaan gets up gritting his teeth angrily without finishing his breakfast and starts walking towards the skin colored sofa where his laptop bag is placed on the table in between the sofa.

"Vihaan! Beta, your breakfast?" Karuna shouts seeing her angry son worrying that he has not finished his breakfast.

"I'm not hungry anymore!" He says with a plain tone and leaves in a hurry angrily.

They both sigh, finish their breakfast in silence and leave without bidding their farewells to each other instead, they avoid each other.

Nishi was watching everything from her room's window and mutters to herself once they leave narrowing her eyes to no one in particular, "सबके पेंच ढीले हैं."

[ Translation : "Everyone's screws are loose." ]

Hareesh Kaka leaves just after them, leaving Kashti with Nishi at home alone who are well secured due to the security around the house and the colony.

Nishi goes to the kitchen after changing her clothes in a light green top and a blue lose short as the weather turns hot today.

She opens the refrigerator and takes out two eggs and a packet of bread 🍞.

She makes an omelette sandwich and some oats for herself. Then some fresh orange juice using the juicer for herself.

Kashti comes from the study room and gets tensed seeing her preparing the breakfast on her own. She comes running to Nishi when she was going to sit on the dinning chair after putting the breakfast on the table and says, "Babyji!"

Nishi flinches at her sudden arrival from behind and puts her one hand on her heart and another on the chair for the balance and says with horror, "Oh my God! You scared me!"

"Sorry!" Kashti says smiling sheepishly at her.

"It's okay. What is it?" Nishi asks her sitting on the chair properly and takes deep breaths to calm down.

"वो. . .Babyji मैं ये कह रही थी की आप क्यों कर रहे हो? मुझे कह दिया होता मैं बना देती आपके लिए नाश्ता!" Kashti says hesitantly thinking she might get mad for not getting the breakfast on time.

[ Translation : "That. . .Babyji, I was saying why are you doing this? If you had told me, I would have cooked breakfast for you!" ]

"आप क्यों बनाओगे? मैं खुद बना सकती हूँ अपना नाश्ता।" Nishi says adjusting her plate then she turns in her direction placing her hand on the back of the chair, "And by the way, क्या मैं आपको दीदी कहकर बुला सकती हूँ if you don't mind?"

[ Translation 1 : "Why would you cook? I can make my own breakfast."

Translation 2 : "And by the way, can I call you sister if you don't mind?" ]
