twist of fate

The pool party..

Pragya's pov

''it's time for food!! '' I called everyone and we got settled ourselves in the dinning table..

''prachi, we are having brunch for the first time!! '' sahana excited...

'' wow!! You were such a good girl.. " rhea wondered..

But prachi's concentration was not may be she is missing Ranbir..because they are best friends and it has two days since they spoke with each other.. I have to speak to prachi. It's okay if she didn't want to get married with him but atleast she shouldn't ruin their good friendship ..

''masi! This is your first time too! Right?? '' saha questioned me..

'' No.. How can it happen ? Being with me and early riser?? It's an oxymoron.. Her first brunch was with me.. And later, when she was pregnant it would be difficult for me to wake her in the mornings.. '' he poked his nose unnecessarily in our conversation...

He is lazy.. And made me a lazy one like him! How can be proud with that?

I was Angry... What was the need to mention that?? I immediately took the glass with water and was about to splash on his face but he caught me..

How dare he??

"pragya! Iam really sorry.. But you don't know you would begin this water splash and go away.. and our daughters will continue it.. It will only end with our youngest one sahana... " he replied as if he was scared of me..

What?? Our youngest daughter sahana?? Means.. He accepts saha as his daughter... but...

Just then i noticed saha hugging him and No wonder! Saha always wanted and yearned for father's love just like prachi.. Now, she would be his side..

"pragya, don't think iam saying all this just because i want to take her my side.. She is always your side... I said this because i want her to be just as normal with me.. Yesterday, prachi and rhea splashed water on my face just like that but she... She was hesitant.. I want her to express her emotions just like prachi.. She is not different for me .. She is same as prachi. " and he looked at prachi..

Prachi was lost in her thoughts..

''prachi, what happened?? You don't seem to be normal?? Where are you lost?? He questioned..

How did he notice that??

Rhea tapped prachi's shoulder..

'' I.. Iam fi. Fine.. " prachi replied.

" hmm.. Yeah.. Maa.. Iam sorry for skipping my college today.. I..''
prachi apologized..

She is acting.. This is not the reason for her sadness..

"it's okay prachi... I understand.. You can spend some time with rhea today" I replied..

I think she needs some time to open up.. Orelse she would have definitely approached me..

" so, it's my day off too! Why don't we go out to spend sometime?? You want prachi to spend sometime with rhea and rhea wants to spend sometime with you and her.. " he questioned me..

It rather looked like a statement than a question..

I knew it.. So this is his plan!
He knows how to lock me in his plan. He involved rhea and prachi with an intention ... He would accompany us.. I would never go out with him But rhea and prachi will get upset if we didn't go out

I looked at prachi and rhea..

'' Mr. Mehra, I love to spend sometime with rhea in my room" prachi replied him breaking his plans..
