The regular residents of Sharma Residence were woken up by the smell of some really amazing food being cooked. Chachi and Mr Sharma woke up first to find Tapish in the kitchen. On the opposite side of the open kitchen was Veer, Sam and Vanshika. Vanshika was sitting next to a pile of papers. Highlighter in her hand as she marked several lines on the papers.
"Arrey, aap kyu khana bana rahe hai? Bani kahan hai?" Chachi asked and was about to wake up Bani but Veer stopped her.
"Nahi, nahi, Aunty. Zaroorat nahi hai." Tapish told her.
"Sasumaa, Tapish bhai ki speciality hai khaana banana. Aapne abhi tak Tapish bhai ke haath ka khaana nahi khaya." Veer made her sit. That's when they realized that both Veer and Tapish weren't wearing a shirt but wore an apron.
"Damad ji, aapko garmi lag rahi thi kya?" Chachi asked.
"Nahi, aunty. Iss idiot ne hum dono ke kapdo pe wine gira di." Tapish explained. "Use dhote nahi toh woh stain kabhi nahi jaayega." Tapish explained pointing to Veer.
"Tapish bhai, aap mere peeche aise bhaag rahe the aur wine gir gayi." Veer defended himself.
"Well, what I'm glad for is that we still have some wine." Sam raised his glass. Sam was sitting next to Vanshika at the dining table.
"Subeh subeh kaam kar rahi ho?" Meera came up.
"Mergers hai, Meera di. I've got to close the deals." She explained.
"Aaj toh Saturday hai..." Mehek complained.
"Jab job lag jaati hai toh koi Saturday, koi Sunday nahi hota." Mr Sharma chuckled. Vanshika chuckled.
"Ek minute..." Tapish stopped Meera as she was about to enter the kitchen.
"Tapish, mujhe khana banana aata hai. Just because I messed up baking doesn't mean I can't cook." Meera exclaimed.
"Meera, dekho, kitchen bohot chota hai. Agar kahin aag lag gayi toh pura ghar jal jaayega." Tapish started pushing her back softly.
"Tapish, main iss ghar mein pichle 19 saal se khana bana rahi hun. Aaj tak kuch nahi hua."
"No one gives a damn. Please step back. Main already bana raha hun. Tumhe rehna hai yahan toh jaao uss taraf Veer ke saath khadi raho. But yahan kitchen ke andar nahi." Tapish kicked her out.
"Mujhe laga tha ki ameer logo ke ghar khana banane wale log hote hai toh unhe aata hi nahi hoga." Chachi laughed.
"Hum mein se kisi ko nahi aata but Tapish bhai ki hobby hai." Veer explained. Tapish worked like a professional chef in the kitchen.
"Veer, yeh le. I want you to cut them in cubes." Tapish told Veer. "Sam, isko theek se mix kar."
The brothers got to work. Bani looked at them. They looked so much different than she had imagined them to be. Bani lived with them. She knew they were close knit as a family but they never seemed so homely before. All of them had their own quirks.
"Pass kar." Veer asked Sam to pass the wine bottle. Veer drank some wine and passes the bottle to Tapish. Tapish took the drink.
"Farmhouse ready ho gaya hai." Sam announced as he got a message.
"Perfect..." Tapish smiled.
"Last time hum uss farmhouse pe the toh kya mazaa aaya tha." Sam exclaimed.
"Kya ho raha hai?" Bani asked Veer.
"Well, guys, sabh jaldi ek week ke kapde pack kar le kyuki hum sabh holiday pe jaa rahe hai." Veer told everyone.
