"Never compromise
food quality and quantity.
If it's tasty, it's zero calories"

"Ro! For the sake of God! Stop stuffing your mouth with those sweets! They are meant for the family that's coming to see Bua!" I groaned out loud hearing Mumma shouting from another room.
(Bua- father's sister)
It's a complete mystery to me how does she know what I am doing even when we aren't facing each other.
But... I couldn't just keep down my Kaju katli now, could I?
Gambling in my head for the last time, I bet on the sweet I shall have, I settled for rasmalai and devoured the sweet milk too.
Sighing with a happy appetite, I patted my soft potato-like stomach, this was bliss.
"Archu, get down already!" I heard Mumma say to Archana, my older sister.
There was chaos all around the house yet I was in delight after having my mid-afternoon pre-lunch snacks.
My Bua, Jyothi, my papa's youngest cousin's sister had finally introduced her boyfriend to family members and now his family was coming to meet everyone else too.
I was happy for her.
Bua was someone that worked too hard for her own good, something I admired about her but couldn't follow myself.
I loved to lazy around, have sweets, and just do nothing.
In my family of four, we were very happy. Archu di and I had a very special and strong bond, unlike other sisters that I heard. Maybe because I never had the energy to go against her.
When I heard happy waves of laughter coming from the living room, I went there to see everyone. They all had big smiles on their faces and Bua seemed flustered with her head down and red cheeks.
I'm a teenager, I do notice.
I know the adults got a bit uncomfortable with me present among them, so, they shifted their topic, I walked back inside roaming around.
This was my paternal grandfather's mansion. We come here often, and it's alright.
It is big and spacious, yet I and Di don't have a room, we share it with papa and Mumma whenever we have a night's stay, which luckily isn't so often, perhaps like when it's dadu or dadi's birthday I guess which was 4 months back.
While looking at everyone's photos hung on walls, I heard the family moving into the dining area, where I was eating sweets earlier.
I happily went to Mumma and stood near her.
