A giant pepsi bottle and an equally large packet of kurkure were having heated words with each other in front of Pandya Stores while Shiva helplessly watched from the sidelines.
Kaka refused to chase them away because they were customers too.
Shiva didn't know how to react to that. He is not letting a bottle of pop and a bag of crisps ruin the ambience of his beloved store. He stormed over to them brandishing a bat.
"Ae gadhero! Niklo yaha se. Apna yeh kutte billiyon ka khel kahi aur jaake khelna. Abhi bhag yaha se!" Shiva shouted at them.
The giant Pepsi looked at him and started shaking violently while the kurkure started laughing hysterically.
Shiva was pissed. How dare they laugh at him?!
He swung his bat and hit the Pepsi right at the abdomen. But the carbonated drink was already fizzed up to the brink and the moment Shiva's bat hit it, its cap burst open - spraying Shiva and everyone in its vicinity with the ice cold liquid.
Shiva got up with a start. He raised a hand to his face, wiping the cold liquid from his face and turned to look at Radhika who was holding a now empty jar of water in her hands. She grinned at his murderous glare.
"Aise ghoorna bandh karo. Maine koshish ki thi tameez se jagane ki. But tum toh kumbhkarn ki neend so rahe the." Radhika said grinning blithely. "Bhabhi ne bola hai uthke nahane ke liye. Naha ke ao. Nashta lagati huu."
"Pehle woh Chipkali kam thi jo ab yeh bhi aa gayi meri neend kharab karne." Shiva grumbled to himself. "Tu itni subah subah yaha kya kar rahi hai?"
"Main toh Krish ko lene ayi thi. Ice cream khane jaa rahe hai. Tum chaloge?"
"Nahi. Tum dono gadheron ke beech kabaab mein haddi nahi banna mujhe. Tum khao apna ice cream." Shiva chuckled as Radhika blushed a bright red.
"Kuch bhi matlab na? Apne dimag ko break laga lo. Aisa kuch nahi hai." Radhika pouted looking away.
"Haan haan. Jaise hum toh kal paida huye the. Andhe bhi hai. Humko toh kuch dikhta hi nahi bhaiii!!!" Shiva laughed ruffling her hair affectionately before getting up and grabbing a towel.
*****
The last thing Raavi wanted to see when she entered Pandya Niwas was Shiva and the Dayan flirting so early in the morning. Why is she even here? Doesn't she have a home? Or is she hoping to be adopted by the Pandyas?
Raavi made a beeline to the kitchen when Dhara di and the Dayan were getting breakfast ready. They looked up as Raavi entered the kitchen.
"Arre Raavi! Aa gayi tu? Chal aaj nashta humare saath kar le thik hai."
