Strangers and Imlie

Conversations

While the older Oberoi and Imlie were talking the others were also having their private conversations.

Aryan, Narmada and Arpita

N (whispering): Aru, what is this I hear about Imlie's divorce, what exactly happeded? She was very happy yesterday, it was a special day for her wasn't it? So what happened that she got divorced.

Arpita gets a buzz from her phone and starts to look at it.

Ar: Maa, she got divorce papers from Mr Tripathi and they agreed to separate, that's all I know at the moment and I think if she doesn't want to share then we shouldn't force her.

Arp (looking up from her phone): Maa, I just got a message from Rupi, she said that Aditya proposed to Malini, he wasn't forced or anything, he had strictly told everyone in the family that Imlie and him were not going to happen both of them decided mutually to separate she and him both agreed that this was best for them as they weren't together because of love, they were there because of responsibilities and neither of them want to go forward anymore. 

Ar (surprised): Really? He said that to them? Imlie said that to him?

Arp (rolling her eyes): Well, UNB he wouldn't lie something about this, Imlie must have said something to him if he had said this to his family, it's easy to catch his lie, they only need to ask Imlie.

N (sad): So Imlie will go away from here.

Ar: Well, she will but you know that we are also going back to Mumbai in a few months right?

Arp: Oh yes, how could I forget this, we are here till the profits of his newspaper company stabilizes. 

N (happy): So we may be apart from her for only a few months, I like her too much to let her go now. 

Arp: I know, I really like her so much I don't want to separate from her, but I think going to Mumbai will do her good, the change in atmosphere will help her cope with the changes that happened in her life.

Nani, Mami, Anjali, Mama, Akash and Payal (Aarav went to his friends house for a sleep over after dinner) 

Anj: Nani, Mami look at Chote, after being with Khushiji these years, he has friends now.

Mami: Anjali Bitya, Khushi bitya had always been her buaji's titaliya, of course she will influence Arnav bitwa. 

Nani: Of course, or else for Chote it was always work, work and work. Now he takes time off for the family, for Khushi. 

Anj: Exactly, infact that's how he met his high school friend Aryan, he was in the farmhouse with Khushiji and Aryan had come there knowing about the place from high school, I can't believe he used to have friends in high school, knowing Chote and seeing Aryan I don't know how they became friends, both of them are ASR's (giggling).

Mami: Exactly Anjali Bitya.

Pay: Haan Maaji, even I am curious about this.

Mama: Payal beta I remember that he used to visit our farmhouse a lot in high school before going to Harvard maybe he used to be there with Aryan beta.

Aka (pouting): I think you are right papa bhai would not let me go there too, he took all the keys of that farmhouse himself too. 

Shivaay and Shakti

Shiv: Dad, you never told me you were a singer.

Shak: I didn't think it was important, you have always been busy with one thing or another, you finally have time for yourself, so I want you to enjoy yourself.
