Rooth Na Jaana

Hello everyone,

Thanks to all for voting and commenting on the previous story. Woh Humsafar (Posted on 12-Jan-2022)

I am going to be busy for the next 2-3 months, so I won't be able to post anything. so, I thought I'll post this small random musing before I took the break.

Sarala opens the door happily and sees Pragya at the door.

"Finally you are home." Sarala say happily. "I've been expecting you since evening."

"They stopped the train for some work for 5 hours." Pragya says tiredly. "I'm hungry Ma."

"Go take a shower and come." Sarala tells.

"I'll have food first and shower."

"You've been in an overnight train. go shower." Sarala says in disgust.

"Fine!" Pragya mutters and walks off to her room.

*******

"Ma, give me foo..." Pragya shouts as she came out of her bedroom and stops in shock seeing Abhi at the dining table.

Irritated, she walks to the table knowing he had purposefully sat on the chair that was hers. She always sat there and ate as it had the perfect view to the TV on one side and the other side, she could see out the window. It was her seat, she only sat there for her meals and everyone knew that she gets irked if someone sat there. And she knew he was doing it purposefully.

She stops and glares at him while he continued to eat without looking up at her.

"Here, Pragya." Sarala says as she offered her a plate. "You sit here and eat."

Glaring at her mother, Pragya sits down opposite to Abhi. she extends her hand to take the rice. Just before she took the spoon, Abhi grabs the spoon and serves for himself. Pragya glares at him knowing he did it purposefully to get a reaction out of her.

After he took his fill, Pragya grabs the spoon and serves for herself. Then glaring at her plate, she starts eating her food. She notices her mother sit on the chair next to hers and start talking to Abhi.

Pragya ignores them even though she could hear their conversation. From his voice, she could make out that he was smiling and that pissed her off the most.

"Pragya, when are you going?" Sarala asks her.

"Where?" Pragya asks her frowning.

"To Purvi's house tomorrow. Are you going in the morning or only in the evening for the engagement?"

"Morning." Pragya replies as she stood up and walked off carrying her empty plate.

"I think she is tired after her long journey." She hears her mother telling Abhi. "She is cranky because of that."

Then she hears Abhi's cheeky reply. "I didn't think she needed a reason to be cranky."

Then she hears both of them laughing. Furious, she marches out of her house.

"Where are you going?" Sarala calls out.

"For a walk!"

***********

Pragya was fuming as she walked around her house. few minutes later, feeling as if someone was following her, she curiously stops and turns back to check.

She sees Abhi walking a few feet behind her, his concentration on his mobile as he tapped away. furious that he was following her, she furiously turns around and walks back to her house.
