UNBREAKABLE STRINGS

Rock, Paper, Scissors

"Stop stoppp, only if u stop screaming and scaring the people around! And if your Armaan hears, he would think I am torturing you and then knock me and my baby!"

"Haath laga kar dikhaaye! Abhira chachii sa and maasi sa bann kar Armaan chacha sa/maasa sa ko outhouse se bhi out kar degi!!", she replied being extremly protective about the baby.
Ruhi let out a chuckle as she founded it cute, but her smile faded as she realised 'maasi', was the word she used. Maasi. She was frightened from that word, from that relation, and now even her baby would have someone to call maasi. What if she becomes the maasi for her baby like the one Ruhi got? She panicked. She wanted to run. But Abhira? She felt something wrong in leaving her again and proving Armaan right by hurting her. She came here to talk. And they were actually talking since the last few minutes without hurting each other. She decided to change the topic and she rushed towards the mansion for the kitchen without saying anything. Abhira, confused, followed her screaming, "Ruhi, kya hua Khadusmaan se kyun darr rahi ho, ruhiii-" as Ruhi came and placed her hand over her mouth to shut her up and reprimanded her," Tum kitna chillati ho, Abhira, you know maa can hear us! Fine, I just won't make your noodles, do it yourself, main toh waise bhi Disneyland se aayi hun na!" and she twitched her mouth saying that. Abhira showed her big puppy eyes in shock that her eyeballs would bulge out, "No no nooo sorry, let's go plzzz baby ki prettyyy mummaaa pretty pleaseeeee pleas-"
"Okay okay no more noise, walk behind me", instructed Ruhi and she followed like a small puppy.
They reached the kitchen, unknown of the fact that Armaan had followed them too along with Rohit who woke up and came down secretly with Ruhi. The brothers gazed at their girls and their smiles with utmost love and affection and warded evil's eyes off as they wished for that sisterhood to remain forever.
Abhira, like a happy kid who came to the kitchen for the first time, started opening all containers to find the ingredients as she was so excited about her mumma's birthday, but let's be honest, more to cook with Ruhi for the first time as sisters. However, she then gave up everything and stood straight like a good kid upon seeing Ruhi's death glare, as she knew upsetting a pregnant woman, that too Ruhi, that too with the "beautiful" relation she shared with her, was bad news. Ruhi, like the responsible and kitchen-loving daughter-in-law she is, nicely organized her essentials and starting preparing the noodles. She was putting the noodles to boil while Abhira excitedly offered to help by cutting the veggies.
"Okay, you can cut the bell peppers while I chop the spring onions", said Ruhi.
"Okay, but yellow or red?", Abhira asked juggling both in her hands.
"Whichever you and your mumma like, Abhira", Ruhi replied, not thinking it to be that important.
"Tell na, Ruhiii, achcha okay rock, paper, scissor?", she said raising her hand in a fist.
"Seriously, Abhira? Itni si baat ke liye? How does it even matter?", asked Ruhi with an 'i-am-done' face.
"Please na please pleaseeee", requested Abhira and persuaded her to agree.

Abhira chose the red bell pepper while Ruhi chose the yellow one. They played and had a tie 3 times but the fourth time, Abhira won and she went with the red ones.
But little did Ruhi know that Abhira mistakenly rather crushed the bell peppers during the war she had with it in cutting them. In a bid to hide the crushed pieces so that Ruhi doesn't scold Abhira, she mistakenly dropped the spring onion Ruhi had chopped. Ruhi gave a dangerous glare to her, "Abhira, ek toh yeh noodles tumhari mumma ke liye hain, abb meri mehnat to-", this time Abhira covered Ruhi's mouth saying, "Ms. Annapurna, Baby Poddar ki pyaari mumma, Designer of the year, bahu of the year, my dear sister please please mat chillao warna maa aajayengi!", Ruhi signaled that she won't scold her by her eyes and Abhira removed her hand from Ruhi's mouth. "No more gadbad!", she reprimanded Abhira and she nodded like an obedient kid.

"Waise main soch rahi thi, you were right, I should go with the yellow ones, they look so bright na!", Abhira said, in order to hide her crushed red bell peppers.
"Bell pepper hai Abhira, lights nahi jo bright ho. You have really lost it na? Tumne itni der mein kuch nahi kara? Just decide and do it quickly!", said Ruhi.
She now handled everything carefully and they started preparing quietly.
