" Bondita ki bacchi tumne aaj nayi saree kyun nahi pehni " Batuk had his hands on his waist dramatically . 

Bondita shrugged and continue to do her puja muttering her morning prayers . Trilochan too shushed Batuk glaring at him . Bondita finished her arti and offered it to Trilochan . He smiled and taking the blessing he patted her on her head . 

She smiled and then moved to Batuk who was looking at the other side in fake anger . 

" Arti lo Batuk "

" mujhe nahi leni " he arrogantly spoke . 

" Batuk aise naa nahi bolte " Bondita softly spoke . 

" tumne meri di hui saree kyun nahi pehni " he irritatedly took the arti and scowled . 

" subah subah to mujhse jhagda na karo , aaj janamdin hai mera . " She cutely batted her eyelashes in attempt to melt him which was already working . 

" to aise kaam bhi na kiya karo jaise main jhagda karu , aur jao meri di hui saree pehen ke aao jao " he ordered . 

" jaa rahi hun jaa rahi hun , apne dada ki tarah surili awaaj mein gana gaane ki koi jaroorat nahi "  She huffed after placing the thali in it's place . 

Batuk had a huge grin after she came down wearing the deep pink saree he has gifted her . she had a little make up on her face , pearly jhumka's which increased her beauty , small red bindi between her eyebrows and kajal on her eyes . It's like the goddess herself descendent to the earth . 

" Aaj to pura sakshaat laxmi maa lag rahi hai bahu " trilochan uttered in a sense of awe .

" akhir pasand kiski hai " Batuk proudly raised his collars . 

" tere dada ki " Trilochan replied wiping the grin from his mouth . 

" Happy birthday beautiful " Batuk excitedly exclaimed in a british way when she approached him . 

" thank you " Bondita replied in the same way . 

" janam din ki badhai ho bahu " Trilochan wished her when she bent down to take his blessings . 

" Dhanyabaad kaka sasurji " She smiled warmly . 

" maaf karna bahu hum tumhare liye kuch laa nahi payee , aur jamindaari ka kaam bhi aagaya humein abhi jana hoga " He expressed with guilty . 

" par naashta to karke jaaiye " She requested . 

" nahi beta hum jaa rahe hain " Trilochan bid her bye and left . 

She turned to Batuk dejectedly only to find Somnath standing there with a infectious smile . she never saw him smile like that and it made her smile too . Unlike Batuk , Somnath had a special bond with her . There was no one in the house he could discuss his thoughts with . But after Bondita came into the house that void in him filled . everyone in the house joked about his study habits and how he was overly dedicated to his study but Bondita was the one who admired it . Seeing her and Batuk fight made Som feel like he has gotten a little sister . She always listens to his problems and actually talks with him unlike anyone else . Like somebody recognize that he is living person in the house , and not ignores him like others . 

" Happy Birthday Bondita " He softly wished . 

She bent down to touch his feet but he stopped her , " yeh kya kar rahi ho . tum rishte mein badi ho mujhse aur kaka ko pata laga to khaal udhedh denge meri " he joked but bondita didn't laughed . 

" rishta to hai hi nahi phir aap kyun maante hain " she said gloomily but didn't let their smile disappear . " choti behen to maante hain na , wahi samajh kar ashirvaad de dijiye " Still he didn't let her touch his feet .
