Now…its time for some celebrations..as bappa is arriving to our house…
Hum jabse delhi shift hue ..har saal hum humaare ghar par 1 and a half din ka ganpati rakhte hi hai…as it was our childhood dream of bringing bappa in our house..bhuvan ,yashu and rishi stayed with us..kyuki pichli raat saare decorations aur taiyaari mein boht late ho chuka tha.. they knew ki aisa hi kuch hoga..toh teeno ne apne kapde bhi laaye the pooja ke liye XD ( ishmart people)

on the day of ganesh chaturti..there was a lot of bhasad in our house as we all were panicked …we wanted everything to be done without any obstacle..
It was early morning…i was doing some last touch ups to our decoration and kavya didi and bhuvan were helping me out…yashu, rishi and nandana didi went to get the other works done..

everything was going well…where the thing got wrong was..i told bhuvan to give final touch up to the mandap with some paint ...
he was talking on phone and doing it..and suddenly his mind got diverted… and the water bowl fell down on the rangoli…

Bhuvan was terrified..he hung up the call and was just looking at me ..and I was completely pissed off..

yeh kya kiya bhuvan aapne!!!...meri saari mehnat par paani pher diye!!” ( I made a crying face)

“sorry sorry..” ( he said by holding his ears)

“aapke sorry bolne se meri rangoli thik ho jaayegi!??..” ( I got more angry)

“main madat kar…" (he was saying something..but I gave him a dead stare)

“main nahi kar raha kuch..” ( he said looking at me)

Humara yeh drama chal raha hai ek taraf..toh dusri taraf kavya didi was standing behing me and enjoying..

I took the bowl and was going into the kitchen to bring a cloth and to clean this…main poora gusse mein badbad karte hue kitchen jaa rahi thi..and suddenly..i slipped because of the water and was about to fall..but bhuvan caught me..
He forget everything for a moment and just looked into my eyes...

He was slowly tucking my hair behind my ears..but I was pissed off..

“yeh koi romantic hone ka waqt hai..” ( I said and hit him on his shoulder)

I went into the kitchen and kavya didi bursted out laughing..

“heheheheh” ( bhuvan sarcastically copied her)

I came with the cloth and cleaned everything and was making rangoli again.. kavya didi went into her room to get ready..
bhuvan came and sat behind me on his knees ..and was coming close to me.. aur main rang lene ke liye seedhe baithi..jisse bhuvan aur mera sar takra gaya… I got more pissed off..

“yaar kya kar rahe ho aap!!” ( I said by rubbing my head)

“tumhara sar hai yaa..koi lokhand ka gola..aaahh!!!” ( bhuvan ko zyaada laga XD)
 
“tumhe manaana chah raha tha..” ( bhuvan added by making a childish face)

“arey par main roothi kaha hoon??” ( I asked)

“mujhpe gussa kiya na abhi..” (she reminded)

arey mere bhushan…jab tak bappa aayenge nahi na..tab tak main aisa bhaukhlaayi rahungi” ( I laughed and continued making my rangoli)

Bhuvan sat besides me ..

“itni shraddha?? Pehli baar dekh raha hoon main tumhe aisa” ( he said)

“boht…pata hai mere first friend hai bappa..school ke starting days mein mera koi dost nahi hua karta tha..bas main ek kone mein akele baithi rehti thi..aur ghar aake roti thi mera koi dost nahi hai bolke..tab meri maa ne kaha..bappa haina tere best friend..” ( I said by getting lost in my golden memories)
