"Dhriti! What is the water not coming?" Mayank asked from the bathroom.

"I guess the water was only half,Landlady  forgot to switch on the motor pump and now there is no water expect drinking water in fridge" Dhriti explained the water crisis in the house.

"What! My eyes are burning with soap.Dhriti help me" Mayank pleaded as he came out tying towel around his waist.

"Okay wait..." Dhriti replied.

Dhriti then bought a water from fridge and poured on Mayank's face.

"Ah...this is so chilled! " Mayank shrieked.

"Sorry...I had no other idea for water" Dhriti spoke out quickly.

Dhriti poured water on his chest as well to wash off the soap.

Mayank splashed water her face.
"Hey no!" Dhriti exclaimed.

Both started running across the room.

"Your Towel will untie" Dhriti warned Mayank.

"I am wearing underwear,Don't you worry Lizard" Mayank replied showing his tongue.

Dhriti stood on the bed with pillow in her defense and Mayank too climbed up the bed to attack her,just like the pillow fights of childhood.

Both fought with pillows,the old bed creaked and broke down with a dash ,Mayank fell on Dhriti,the world ceased to exist as he looked into her eyes.

"Mayank your towel slipped" Dhriti stuttered.

"I don't care" Mayank spoke looking at her lips.

"I have to go for practice" She lied.

"If I don't let go" Mayank whispered in Dhriti's ear, his breathe fanned her neck.

"Behave Mayank" Dhriti stuttered.

"I have switched on motor and tank will.." Madhavi,the entered the bedroom.

"Ah.. At least keep the bedroom locked up!" Madhavi exclaimed.

"It's not like that..."Mayank sprang with speed of light and thought to rush behind landlady to apologize.

"Mayank!" Dhriti pointed out.

"Wait..I need to say sorry"
Mayank stood to exit the room.

"Idiot Monkey,wear clothes! You just in your underwear,the towel had slipped when you fell on me" Dhriti clutched Mayank's wrist.

"Oh..yeah" Mayank spoke out.

Dhriti laughed as he ran to wear his jeans.

"Well..what do you think about my toned body?" Mayank smirked going out.

"Huh...body is not that good" Dhriti spoke out.

"Lier! I still can catch your lies" Mayank replied back.

"Shit! How he  always read my mind?" Dhriti smiled to herself.

                            ~~~ 

"Wow...Audi R8" Satish jumped seeing pictures of Krish with Shweta's car.

"Isn't it great? I don't think it's bad deal" Krish spoke out.

"Deal?" Satish asked confused.

"This marriage is great deal for me, Satish you have not seen what a lifestyle Shweta has. She is definitely a model in appearance" Krish spoke out dreamily.

"Big boobs and big ass?" Satish elbowed Krish.

"Yeah...I have hit a jackpot" Krish raised his imaginary collar.

                             ~~~

"Dhriti you have to keep Karva Chauth" Madhavi spoke out.

Karva Chauth is a one-day festival celebrated annually by married Hindu women in which they observe a fast from sunrise to moonrise and pray for the well-being and longevity of their husbands. The festival is also observed by unmarried women who pray in the hope of securing a desired life partner.

"No...I mean I have practice tomorrow and I don't have any fancy saree or suit here" Dhriti replied.

"Don't you love Mayank?Don't you wish for his long life?You don't have any relatives or elders here that's why I am telling you" Madhavi spoke out with a warm smile.

"I haven't fasted ever...I don't know whether..."  Dhriti hesitated.

"You will good it nicely,all married women and even unmarried girls keep this fast to get a good husband.You have a good looking husband,keep this fast for him,all so many evil eyes may be behind him" Madhavi explained.

"Evil eyes on Manky? No nothing can harm him when I am here" Dhriti thought to herself.

"Dhriti you are not keep any fast for me,yamraj won't refrain from taking me if my death is written" Mayank spoke out sternly.

"Stop talking rubbish! I will slap you if you talk about dying" Dhriti spoke angrily with fear surmounting inside her heart.

"You won't fast for me" Mayank spoke out.

"Okay...I will keep a fast for a good husband" Dhriti spoke cunningly that left Mayank tied for a second.

"You already have me,you are not keeping any fast" Mayank replied with disapproval.

                              ~~~
"I can't fast more,you people are making me fast every Tuesday and making me eat only toor dal on fasting days. I am fed up with all this and I won't keep Karwa Chauth now" Sneha spoke out furiously.

"You will keep it" Sneha's mother declared.

Sneha cried bitterly to sleep.
   

                            ~~~

" Toor(pigeon pea legume)dal " Mayank made a face as Dhriti served him.

"Hmm...eat it " Dhriti spoke out.

"You know I don't like toor(pigeon pea legume) dal then why this torture. Sneha di and I hate it so much that we never allowed Mummy to make it in home" Mayank spoke with a scowl.

"It's healthy eat it" Dhriti insisted.

"I am ordering pizza " Mayank replied.

"Why aren't you eating your dal? Don't tell me that you are keeping that stupid fast" Mayank spoke out.

"No..no I am not fasting,it's new diet plan in which I have to skip dinner" Dhriti.

"Dieting and you? Dhriti do you want disappear in thin air.Don't do this Dieting,you know I never allowed di to fast,she always fell sick. I always ensured that she didn't fast.Didi is very sensitive she can't fast" Mayank spoke out thinking about Sneha.

                                  ~~~

"What do you think about this solitaire?" Shweta asked Krish while buying an engagement ring for him.

"Buy whatever you like" Krish replied happily.

"After a week we're getting engaged,I am so excited" Shweta squealed in excitement.

"Maa was right,Shweta is a nice choice. I will get every luxury at my fingertip. Life is well settled and I can very well tame her according to my rules" Krish thought with an internal smirk.
