MUKTA

I began running downstairs and stopped at a point when I saw a lot of ladies sitting and gossiping.

Snacks were being distributed.
And then my eyes fell on a board...

Shivansh weds Sanskriti

Oh!!! Aauuuhhh!!!
Wedding???
Someone is getting married here???

'Oh Shit!!! Mukta tu gaadhav aahe (Mukta you are a donkey)...

And next minute I saw the ladies crowd coming towards me and I didn't know where and that's when I noticed I'm in a night dress. A t-shirt pajama!!!
Freaking!!! Shit!!!

But before someone caught me I was been pulled by my wrist by a strong pull and I turned around to see Chetkin...shit!!! No!!! Prarthana pulling me upstairs!!!

And next minute I was pulled up to the second floor which had Omkar trying to stand with a lot of difficulty ..ouchhh!!!

Then there was also the white ghost who was trying to hop on his left leg as I had attacked his right one was limping!!!

And then Prarthana stood infront of me folding her hands to her chest and asked...

'First of all tell me what were you thinking when you meant I must be going and hanging on that banyan tree??? And what is a chitki???' she asked snapping her finger while I gulped nervously!!!

To which Omkar said shooting his eyes into my eyes...

Chetkin Pattu!!! Just googled!!!
In marathi it means witch!!!

And I closed my eyes!!!

Prarthana looked at me and took a step closer to me and asked...
'You thought I was a witch???' and I didn't know what to say and I finally spoke up...

'I ...I am sorry Prarthana... actually you were sitting on that bed with your hair open, red saree, red bindi and your voice...' and that's when I heard a voice from behind...

'Kids... haven't you got ready yet??? Shivansh's Udida muhurtu ritual (grinding the gram as a sign of teaching nitty gritty portraying significance of marital life and pre wedding rituals for groom before a GSB wedding) and I stood there blinking.

Omkar's mother's eyes fell on me and then on Prarthana...

'Sorry Amma...I asked her to wait upstairs but she came running...she misunderstood us to be ghosts!!!' she said and I closed my eyes.

Gosh so embarassing!!! And to my surprise Omkar's mother looked at everyone's faces and then burst out laughing asking...

'She what???' and then Prarthana went closer to her and hugged her saying...

'Mom please...now you are not laughing...do I look so bad???' she asked pouting and making cute faces and Omkar's mother pulled her cheek saying...
'Ole na gondi (No darling)' and then pressing her lips tighter looked at me asking...

'Mukta ..why did you think my jokers are ghosts???' to which I looked here and there...

Gosh this is worst!!!

And I could see Omkar's eyes on me...
His gaze made me more conscious!!!

OMKAR

She was looking here and there with her big button eyes and biting her lower lip and I don't know all the frustration and anger I had on her because yet another time she attacked my jewel was gone away like thin air!!!
