***Ramya's POV.***
"What's cooking?" I ask myself as look at my Mum looking a little eager about the guest who is coming for dinner tonight.
Who is this guest?
"Mum, you didn't tell me who is coming?" I ask.
"Someone from work, dear." She says and changes the table mat a third time.
"Someone who, exactly?" I ask.
"Hmm... A catering company's head." Mum says.
"Is this person important?" I ask.
"He recently canceled his contract with a famous event management company. So I am doing everything I could to finalize my contract with him." She says, but I feel odd the way she is behaving.
Anyone could take her actions to be meant as if she was trying to impress her secret crush. Wait a second. Does my Mum have a secret crush? Now I am eager to meet him too. But wait a second. Is this the problem Maa Kaali was warning me about?
I will see what I can do about it if that is the case.
"Ramya! Ramya!" Mum says, waving her hand in front of my face.
"Yes, Mum." I say.
"Go get ready. And wear what I took out for you, not something weird." She says.
"I will think about it." I say as I go up.
"For once, Ramya, listen to me." She says and I nod.
"Okay. If I didn't know you better, I would have thought you were in love with this man or something." I scoff as I go up and casually look back and see my Mum going still.
Noooooo!
I rush into my room and walk from one end to another in worry. Even though I am not that kind of daughter who would mind if her Mum got into a relationship or got married again and this time for love. But I am definitely that type of daughter who is extra possessive about her Mum.
"But if Mum really is in love with this man, then she must have known this guy for a long time. Maybe I can ask that man when he comes home. I have to know more about him. But this time I have to carry out a secret investigation on him. I have to make sure he will never harm my Mum. I have to." I say to myself.
I get ready in a purple salwar suit and go down to help Mum, who is getting more agitated as the time for dinner is coming near. I send her upstairs to get ready as I prepare myself to welcome our guest.
The doorbell rings and I rush to open the door.
But when I open the door, a wall is standing in front of me and what an intimidating wall it is. The man is about my mother's age or maybe a little older than her, but he looks fit. His dressing style is normal, with a plain white shirt and a formal gray suit. But why intimidating?
His eyes look so cold and so does his face.
Oh, my gosh! How can Mum fall for another indifferent person? Didn't Mum learn anything?
"Good evening. Is this Ms. Kaur's house?" He asks formally.
"Yes." I say, "Who are you?"
"I am Sukhit Verma. I am your mother's-" Before he could finish the sentence, Mum interrupted him.
"Sukhit, you are finally here. What are you doing, Ramya? Ask him to come in." She says as she comes down the stairs dressed in a beautiful blue saree.
Today is Ramya's Shock Day, and it is going quite well so far. I am just two shocks away from getting a heart attack.
