Part 8

Scene starts in the kitchen,
Kartik was ordered to prepare the engagement party food for everyone. However, Kartik's gaze was fixed on Ayush's bestfriend, Tamannah, the person about whom Balwinder told to Kartik about. According to Balwinder, Tamannah was the one who created all the misunderstandings 20 years ago by accusing Shalu of attempt to murder.

Yes, 20 years ago...Shalu was accused of attempt to murder of Tamannah and since Shalu and Ayush got separated...Ayush provided Tamannah with all the neccessary amenities for life which included everything she asked for herself without hesitation.

When Kartik was lost in his thoughts Sameer came angrily and irriated to him.
Sameer(whispering)(glaring at Tamannah): Dekh...kaise daant dikha dikha kar hass rahi hain....Maa ki zindagi barbaad karke. I swear..agar yeh aurat na hoti....toh main kasam se iske daant tod deta.
Kartik(whispering): Chod na yaar.....humein bas Maa ko dhoondne se matlab hain. Ek baar vo mil jaaye fir yaha se hamesha hamesha ke liye chale jaaenge...fir inhe jo karna hain vo kare.
Sameer(whispering): Don't you think Mr.Oberoi aur baaki sabko sach ka pata hona chahiye?
Kartik(whispering): Haan chahiye par agar vo Maa ke bina khush hain toh wahi sahi. Hum bhi apni choti si duniya mein khush rahenge...bas ek baar Maa mil jaaye.
Sameer(whispering): Haan...theek kaha.....I swear ki main na zindagi mein fir kabhi inn Oberois ki shakal nahi dekhunga waapis jaane ke baad.
Kartik(whispering): Aise nahi bolte.....
Sameer(whispering): Kya aise bahi bolte? Main mazaak nahi kar raha hoon....sach mein main na......

"Kya timepass chal raha hain yaha par?"asked Sonia while coming into the kitchen.
Sonia: Kya timepass chal raha hain yaha par? Kaam karne ke liye rakha gaya hain tum dono ko yaha par samjhe na? So just focus on your work.
Sameer: Aur aapko kis liye rakha gaya hain? Dusron ke kaam mein taang adane ke liye?
Sonia: Listen tum na....bohot batameezi kar chuke ho mere saath. Ab agar ek aur baar mere saath batameezi ki na tumne toh main jaa kar na Ayush se keh doongi fir vo dekhega tum dono ko.
Sameer: Accha? Oo...Mr.Oberoi.....
Ayush, who was sitting in the hall with others looked at Sameer.
Sameer: Aapki pyaari behena aapse mere khilaaf kuch bolna chahti hain...zara sunn lijiye......
Ayush: Kya hua Sonia?
Sonia: Kuch nahi bas....yeh Sameer mere saath batameezi kar raha tha. Zaban lada raha tha......
Sameer: Accha? Aur shuruwaat kisne ki thi madam? Aapne ya maine?
Sonia: Dekho tum na......apni hadd se aage badh rahe ho......
Sameer: Meri hadd ka toh pata nahi madam lekin agar aapne humari firse insult ki na toh main majboor ho jaaunga aapko aapki hadd dikhane mein.
Sonia: You are an......
Virendra: Sonia.....unn dono ko apna kaam karne do.....tum jaa kar apni dress final kar lo...go.....
Sonia: Tumhe toh main baad mein dekhti hoon.....
Saying this Sonia left.

Sameer(whispering): Tu inn logon se kuch kehta kyun nahi hain?
Kartik(sighing)(whispering): Chod na....Maa kya kehti thi? Faltu baatein ek kaan se suno...dusre se nikaal do....
Sameer and Kartik chuckled and gave a high five to each other.

Kartik and Sameer continued their work. Till 6:30 p.m all the food items were prepared as ordered by Neelam. When Kartik and Sameer were thinking whom they should call to taste the food....Bani arrived in the kitchen.

Bani: Kya ho gaya?
Kartik: Vo madam humne khana toh bana liya hain lekin humein yeh samajh mein nahi aa raha hain ki taste karke kaun batayega humein ki kaisa bana hain.
Bani: Bas itni si baat? Main hoon na....main taste karke batati hoon.
Bani tasted each and every food item.
Bani: Bohot tasty bana hain Kartik....tere haathon mein toh jadoo hain...bilkul Shalu ke haathon ke jaise....(teary eyed)...kaash vo bhi aaj yaha hoti.

"Accha hua ki vo manhoos yaha nahi hain."said Lakshmi while entering the kitchen.
Lakshmi(sternly): Bohot accha hua ki vo manhoos yaha par nahi hain warna aaj hum khushiyaan nahi...martam mana rahe hote.
Kartik: Madam....please aise mat kahiye.....
Lakshmi(sternly): Warna kya kar loge? Haan?
Sameer: Yeh toh humein bhi nahi pata ki kya karenge par jo bhi karenge na madam....vo aap bardaasht nahi kar paaengi...so please......humari Maa ke baare mein ulti seedhi baatein bolna band kar dijiye.
Saying this Sameer left....Kartik followed him.
Lakshmi: Dekha tu ne Bani? Kaisi parvarish di hain uss Shalu ne inn dono ko?
Bani(teary eyed): Parvarish toh Bauji ne bhi humein aisi nahi di thi dii ki tu Shalu ko hi manhoos bole jisne tera hamesha saath diya aur.....
Lakshmi(angrily): Aur uss saath ke badle meri beti ko mujhse hamesha ke liye durr kar diya. Ainda se Shalu ke liye mere saamne justification mat dena...warna mujhse bura koi bhi nahi hoga.
Saying this Lakshmi left angrily.
