"Maa ko lagta hai ki mere rang ki wajah se meri shaadi nahi ho rahi." Meera told Tapish as she ate.
"Tumhari maa hi galat ladko ko dekh rahi tumhare liye. Abh chocolate ice cream toh wahi khaega jise chocolate pasand ho. Vanilla lover ko chocolate doge toh uski khaasiyat kaise samjhega?" Tapish corrected. Meera smiled. "It takes a chocolate boy to like chocolates."
"Smooth, Tapish bhai, real smooth..." Sam commented.
"Oh God!!!" Vanshika grabbed Sam's arm really hard in excitement. She had to hold on to something from almost jumping out.
"Ow..." Sam winced at how hard she grabbed his arm.
"Tapish bhai sach mein tezz nikle." Veer added with a grin.
"That's sweet." Meera answered with a smile. She was a little oblivious to the fact that Tapish just flirted with her. Vanshika groaned and put her head on the table.
"Meera di... Kya hoga aapka? Banda aur kitna clear flirt kare?" Vanshika complained holding her hair.
"Meera toh Bani se bhi zyaada bholi nikli." Veer commented.
Tapish thought on the same lines as Vanshika. He put the bottle of wine on their table.
"Nahi. Main actually nahi peeti. I don't like wine." Meera said.
"How come you don't like wine? You eat plum cake but don't drink wine?"
"I don't eat the plum cake that has wine."
Tapish rubbed his forehead.
"Meera, toh plum cake khaya kyu? Seriously? It's like wanting to eat a chocolate chip cookie but eating the one which has raisins in it."
"Arrey, sabhki apni pasand hoti hai."
"Haan. Yeh toh wahi baat hai ki biriyani kaahogi par usmein chicken nahi hona chahiye. Toh kha kyu rahi ho biriyani?"
"Dekho, tum phir se shuru ho gaye."
"Acha, tumne wine kabhi taste bhi ki hai?"
"Nahi."
"Toh kaise pata ki tumhe pasand hai bhi ya nahi?"
"Kyuki mere ghar pe koi sharab nahi peeta."
"Toh mere ghar hi aa jaao."
"Haan toh main waise bhi aati hi rehti hun Bani se milne. But I still don't want drink wine. "
This time Veer pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Meera... Tapish bhai isse zyaada clear flirt karne lage toh it would be past flirting and be more of a proposal." Veer complained.
"Kaise behen hai aapki, Bhabhi? Itne clear signs bhi unhe nahi samajh aa rahe." Sam complained to Bani on the phone.
"Meri Meera di ko kuch mat kaho. Bechari bholi hai. Unka koi boyfriend nahi raha hai aur na hi kisi ladke ke saath woh kabhi dost rahi hai. Unke bohot saare dost nahi the." Bani defended her sister.
"Vanshika, Sam, hum dono ko hi kuch karna padega. Tapish bhai toh puri try kar rahe hai but yeh Meera... duffer ko samajh hi nahi aa raha." Veer decided.
"Oh, hello. Woh meri behen hai. Unhe duffer mat bolo." Bani complained.
"Main duffer nahi bolun toh aur kya bolun?" Veer asked.
"Acha. Fine. Main hi pi leta hun." Tapish sighed. They started eating their food. Meera had known Tapish enough to understand the basic way he worked. He was someone who worked in a structured way. Nothing chaotic. He had a plan of action. A routine that he follows. Not an OCD level but a bit more than regular people. For example his suits. He wouldn't own a tie of the same shade again. Tapish Singhania wouldn't be caught dead in a messy attire. He always looked he's straight out of the shower. Fresh and groomed. Not even a hair out of place. Meera did like that he wasn't the unpredictable kind. You don't have to worry about Tapish flipping out. He's generally calm never breaking into fits of worry.
