UNEXPECTED LIFE OF LOVE

*10*

The day before the much-anticipated trip had arrived, and the group had planned to stay at the Oberoi Mansion for the night before they all set off together. Gauri, so badly wanted to avoid any potential drama at the Sharma household before the Leave suggested they stay at Oberoi Mansion and had made sure to pack everything she needed for the trip. After getting ready, she decided to check on her sister, Kinjal, to see if she was ready to go.

In Kinjal Room

In Kinjal’s Room

Gauri walked into Kinjal’s room and found her lying on the bed, looking a bit pale.

Gauri: Kinjal tum ready ho??

(Kinjal, are you ready?)

Kinjal : Nahi yaar, mujhe tabiyat kuch theek nahi lag rahi hai. Tum jao, main seedha Om ke ghar aajaungi. Tum mere liye thoda shopping kar lena

(No, yaar, I’m not feeling well. You go ahead; I’ll come directly to Om’s house in the evening. Just do a little shopping for me.)

Kinjal handed Gauri a list of items she wanted her to pick up from the mall.

Gauri : Acha Okay Rest Lelena mein aake pick kar lungi call kardena

(Alright, take rest. I’ll pick you up later. Just give me a call.)

Kinjal : Nahi mein aajaungi tum bas Car ko yahi chod do!!

(No, I’ll come myself. Just leave the car here.)

Gauri : Acha Okayy I will call them and ask them to pick me! Take care!!

(Alright, okay. I’ll ask them to pick me up. Take care!)

Gauri caressed Kinjal’s hair affectionately before leaving the room. She headed downstairs and immediately called Om to update him on the change of plans.

On the Phone with Om

Om : Haa Ri Baas Nikal hi Raha hun Toshu ko Pick up karke seedha Mall mein milenge

(Yeah Ri, I’m just leaving. I’ll pick up Toshu and meet you directly at the mall.)

Gauri : Hii Hello kuch nahi phele meri bhath toh sun lo nah

(Hi, hello, nothing, first listen to what I have to say!)

Om : Haa Bolo Bolo

(Yes, tell me, tell me.)

Gauri : You have to Pick me Up!! Kinjal is not feeling well so she will come to Your Home Directly at Evening!!

Om : Acha Okay Mein Toshu ko Pick up karke will come and pick you up!

(Alright, I’ll pick up Toshu and then come get you.)

Gauri : Okayy Call me Once you are reaching!

After ending the call, Gauri sat in the living area with her bags packed and ready for the fourteen days trip. She engaged in light conversation with her Badi Maa and Bade Papa, trying to keep her mind off the glare that her Baa kept throwing at her. Since Bade Papa had strictly warned Baa not to pick up any fight, she kept on glaring at Gauri instead.

Soon, the sound of Om's car pulling up outside drew Gauri's attention. She said her goodbyes to her Badi Maa and Bade Papa, who both wished her a good trip.

Badi Maa: Trip ka maza lena, aur khayal rakhna.

(Enjoy the trip and take care.)

Bade Papa: Haan khayal bhi rakhna ek dusre ka

(Yes, take care of each other)

Gauri assured them she would, before heading outside to where Om was waiting.
