London
"Hello?" Bondita spoke up as she assumed who's call it must be. Thus deliberately modulated her voice to sound just like her friend. She was completely in a mood to tease the to-be couple.
"Liz, it's me. how are you? I came to know about everything that happened. It's been 2 days since we met. I'm missing you so much." He spoke in a British accent from the other side.
"But I didn't miss you at all." She said trying to seize her laugh and her friend who was just standing near her was pleading to stop the prank she was doing with her fiancé.
"Hey, are you still upset? Okay I've a plan. Wo ki shaadee ke pehle meri haldee tumhe apply karne ka wo ri... what is that word? Yes, reet hai. So I'll bring my haldi. Isi bahane I'll meet you." He said in his broken hindi.
"Wow. Sab kuch traditional way mein chahte ho na tum?" She asked softly.
"Yes ofcourse." He replied in the same tone.
She suddenly spoke up in her original voice in a loud tone "Toh tum itna bhi nahi jaate shaadi se pehle ladka ladki nahi mil sakte ek dusre se!"
"Bondeeta tum? Tumne pheerse uskee voice mein baat karke mujhe fool kiya." He asked with a frown.
"Fool toh tum pehle se hi ho, Dr. Pratham. Aur rahi baat Liz ke voice mein baat karna, toh isse mujhe ye toh pata chal gaya ki tum gaye holud ke bahane ussey milne ki planning kar rahe ho." Bondita said looking teasingly at her who stood there blushing as she heard this.
"C'mon Bond. What is this naa milna and all. Stop behaving like this as if tum inn sab reet ko maanti ho. You're a Barrister." He said irritatingly.
"Barrister nahi. Barrister babu." She said with her head held high and continued "Aur Bondita Kureetiyon ke khilaaf hai. Reet riwaaz rasmey, jisme kisi ki koi danger na ho, usko nibhane mein kya problem?"
"I know tum ye intentionally kar rahi ho. Dekho Bond, we can't follow all the traditions, right? Ab hum kal shaadi bhi court mein jaake karne waale hai. It's not a traditional one." He spoke trying to please her.
"Ha toh? Jitna ho sake utna toh kar hi rahe hai na? And don't forget it was you, jisse ye traditions ke saath karne the. Main toh bas ussey sahi tareeke se nibha rahi hu. Kal time nahi milega na, isliye yaha Liz ke haatho aur pairo pe aalta lagane wali hu. Bilkul jaise tum chahte the Babumoshaay."
"Really? I.. I want to see her. Main abhi haldee lekar aata hu aur..."
"Wait" she interrupted and asked "tumne laga li na haldi?"
"Ha. Amartya, Anmol aur Richard ne milke lagaya."
"Toh tumhe yaha aane ki koi zaroorat nahi hai. Ek kaam karo Amartya ke haatho bhijwa do haldi. Aur jaldi karo. Someone is getting restless." She said teasing her friend whose pale ivory skin had appeared a tint of scarlet.
"Everyone's already left Bond. Isiliye main khud aata hu." Eagerness evident in his voice.
"Nahi ruko. Koi zaroorat nahi hai. Main aati hu. Jaanti hu main tumhara plan."
"Bond! Stop this please."
"Arrey, itna toh intezaar kar lo. Kal hi hai shaadi. Aur uske baad toh tum dono humesha ke liye ek saath rahoge na? Ab mujhe ek aur din ke liye hi jhel lo tum dono ke beech. Waise bhi parso main Hindustan waapis jaa rahi hu." She had tears while she said this but still tried to sound happy.
