Barrister Babu

chapter 5

Bondita was making her patibabu's bed,he was reading a book in the backyard.Bondita was glad that he wasn't in front of her right now,she was also a bit disappointed,she had an habit of spending time with him before going to bed,but Tonight it's better if they don't,once her ma fix her she can again talk with him without constant "thump thump".

Suddenly someone tickled from behind.

"Ahh, patibabu,what are you doing..?"

She could hear his giggles behind her.She was laughing hard too,she can't handle tickles.

"Offo, patibabu.Let go off me"

It's been a few days since they played like this,both were too busy with their life.

"I won't,not before you tell me what's wrong with you"

He was now tickling her belly too,she was squirming in his arms,but bondita wasn't some damsel in distress.She knew how to protect herself,she turned swiftly towards him and started to tickle him too.

"Bondita, that's not fair"
Anirudh let her go and quickly ran to the other part of the room.

Bondita replied breathlessly,"oh,so when you do it, it's fair game and when I do it, it's not.Woah barrister Babu,what a justice you serve"
"Bondita,I am not barrister Babu right now,I am biristira Babu,I don't serve justice,I only know how to playyyy.....you stay away from me,I will call ma...Maaaa,look what your daughter is doing to me"

Anirudh didn't liked being tickled but he loved to tickle people,but he had no one to tickle except his small wife.'i just wanted to know what's wrong with her,but looks like now she won't leave until she takes her revenge'

Both of them was running all across the room, bondita was a swift runner but Anirudh had strength,she successfully got hold of him twice,but unfortunately he used his strength and got out.

"So you will call ma,when you are the one who started it,let her come.I will tell her all the things you did just now"

They were giggling and running across the whole room,the arranged bed was ruined.

Sumati came running towards the room after hearing her jamaibabu's voice.One of the widow was behind her too,but she didn't entered the room.

Sumati:jam...hai!! Bondita,what are you doing?

Both Anirudh and bondita was in a funny state, Anirudh was at the top of the bed,he was hugging a pillow whereas she was standing on the floor and trying to snatch the pillow from his hand.In midst of their power struggle the pillow was about to break,few feathers even came out of it.

Both started to complain to her at the same time.
Anirudh:look ma,what your daughter is doing to me,did you ever see anyone to do these things?
Bondita:ma,he started it,he never leaves me alone,he always either tease me or tickles me.All the time.
Anirudh:what???how can you say this thing about me?I always tease you?what about you ha?you always tease me too,you never let go of a single chance to get revenge.
Bondita:see,you give prove in your words,I take revenge,you are the one who start the teasing game.
Sumati:ah,ok ok.Calm down both of you.Bondita,you shouldn't talk like this to your husband.And Jamai Babu,she is a kid,if she has committed some mistake please forgive her.

Anirudh:she started it
Bondita:he started it

"Huh!!ma, it's him who started it,I was making the bed then suddenly he came from behind and tickled my back."
"It was just light touch,you are the one who turned around to tickle me"
"Ma,you tell me,who is at fault here"
Sumati gave them an endearing smile,she was praying to her goddess that her children stays this happy all the time.No one understood their unique beautiful relationship.But she did.And she held an Oscan of respect for their relationship.
