BADLAAV:
Note: This is Part 4 of 5 of the Bundelkhand series.
Amma ji looked up as her bhatija tapped her shoulder, and she smiled at him.
"Bol, maude, ke chahiye tujhe?" She asked.
"Bua, mujhe, na, wo... wo..." He said, blushing a little.
"Ise koi pasand aa gayi hai", Kundan said.
"What? Really, bro?" Sid asked. He flicked his eyebrows up. "Kaun hai wo?"
"Wo", Anuj, her bhatija said, nodding to someone. Sid followed his gaze, raising an eyebrow at the group of cadets.
"Maude, kaunsi waali?" Amma ji asked.
"Wo, white top mein", he said, and Sid's eyes widened.
"Monu!?" He almost shrieked. "Tumhe Monu pasand aa gayi hai?"
He shook his head. "Pasand nahi, bhai. Pyaar! Bua, shaadi ki baat karo, na? Please keh rahe hain?"
"Haan, haan, tujhse pasand aayi toh hum zaroor kuch karoge", Amma ji said. She made a face. "Par yahi pasand aa raho hai tujhe?"
'In mein se ek ko meri waali pasand aa gayi hai, ek meri bro ko pasand kar chuka hai, aur ek toh mujhe hi pasand kar chuki hai', he thought. 'Yahan par jo bhi aata hai, yeh log bina shaadi ke waapas nahi bhejte kya?'
"Uh, ek minute, guys?" Sid said. "Wo, uh, mujhe baat karni hai in sab se." He dashed to them before anyone could get a word out.
"Kya hua?" Karan asked, glancing behind him.
"Wo... wo jo Anuj, matlab Aunty ji bro ka bhatija hai, na, use koi pasand aa gayi hai", he huffed out. "Aur Aunty uss ladki ke saath uski shaadi karwaane ki baat kar rahe the."
Faizi stifled a laugh, staring at him. "Kaun?"
"Monu bro", he said.
"Kya? Kaun hai wo? Main-" Karan said, and Monami pinched his arm lightly. Her eyes darted to the cadets, giving him a stern look.
"Oh ho, Monami madam", Bala said.
"#No, no. Aisi #relative toh door door bhi na mile", Chitra said. "Yahi kehti rahegi poori #life, 'aye mori, kapde chote hain.'" She mocked her tone, and everyone laughed at her impression, even Karan sporting a smile.
"Suman ji ko toh yeh samajh nahi aa raho hai ki yeh tujhe pasand karto hai ya nahi, Monami. Abhi apne bhatije ka rishta karane ki baat kar raho hai, aur pehle, tujhe itna sunaaya usne. Chudail."
Aneesh clenched his jaw lightly. 'Ab yeh Karan kam tha, jo yeh ek aur aa gaya hai?' He thought.

"Wo Amma ji ka stupid bhatija toh nahi jaa raha tumhaare saath, na?" He asked.
She chuckled, shaking her head. "Nahi. Nahi, jaa raha hai."
"Ho sake toh door rehna", he said.
"Karan, tum possessive kyun ho rahe ho?" She asked. "Main tumhaari hi hoon. I love you." She glanced around before leaning up and pressing a kiss to his cheek.
"I love you too", he said.
"Main baaki cadets ke saath village tour par jaa rahi hoon. Tum bhi aa jao?"
He shook his head a little. "Maine dekha hua hai. Aur mujhe Faizi se kuch baat karni hai. Tum sab jao."
She made a face. "I'll miss you", she said, smiling at him, before running up to join the other cadets.
