The Rathore's Family

They talked, family shocked

“Ma, are you seeing this? He’s laughing at me,” Drishti complained to Anjali, though her tone held a hint of playfulness. Anjali tried to smile back, but the scene only made her heart swell further.

Advait’s laughter softened, his eyes watering from amusement. “Bhabhi, you looked at us like we were planning a murder,” he teased, wiping his eyes.

Drishti, exasperated, took a seat beside Anjali again. “Yes, yes, keep laughing. Soon enough, I’ll be gone, and then everyone can laugh without me.” She glanced around, seeking any answer to ease her frustration.

“Oh, right, you’re supposed to go to your friend’s place today,” Vihaan chimed in, nodding.

“Yes, I—” She was cut off by Advait’s sudden, firm voice, “No.” His tone left no room for argument, and everyone, including Drishti, looked at him, surprised.

He said the other day that I can’t go anywhere if I’m angry, she recalled, but I’m not angry now. I mean, I was earlier, but that doesn’t count, right? Maybe I should just act calm... She mentally assured herself with a mix of defiance and uncertainty.

“Wow, Bhabhi won’t go?” Amaira’s chirping voice cut through Drishti’s thoughts, her eyes sparkling with mischief. Drishti shot her a glare, as if ready to scold her, while Amaira seemed delighted by her inability to leave.

Her gaze shifted back to Advait, who took a leisurely sip of his coffee. Batting her lashes, she asked sweetly, “But why?”

“Why?” he replied, raising an eyebrow and taking another sip. “You don’t know?”

“No, please do enlighten me. I would be honored to understand,” she responded, her voice laced with that deceptive calm that often came before a storm.

Anjali, finally stepping in, asked, “Yes, Advait, what is it? Why can’t she go?”

“Good question, Ma,” Drishti added, folding her arms with a challenging smirk.

Ask her." He said it even without looking at anyone.

She got taken aback by his words,and everyone looked at her and Anjali with questioned her,"What happend"

Ma mujhe kya pata hoga inse puccho. "

''Jaao yrrr mujhe nhi khelna vihaan took everyone'sattention. .Inko unko mere gale me dard ho gaya idhar udhar dekhte dekhte majaaal hai abhi to kucch samjh aaya ho mujhe."

Kisi kaha tumse samjhne ko magar yahi dimaag he rehta hai tum logo ka games kehlo collenge na jaao aur na he office aana," he said, and his voice was commanding, leaving no room for argumentation.

He slid back his chair and stood, eyeing everyone, and one dare to match his eyes. "I have an important meeting. I am going." He said it with finality before walking out of the hall.

As he went out, they took a breath of relief, but Drishti's mood went off.

Vihaan looked at Drishti and said, Bhabhi aap dukhi kyu ho rahe ho abhi aapka devar jinda hai aapko main le chalunga wanha."

Han per phir aaj k baad zinda nhi rahega bahut dukh k saath kehna pad raha hai." Amaira said, laughing, and Vihaan gazed at her with a serious expression.

Tujhse darungi main tere in choti choti aankho se." Amaira said, mocking him..

Yrr chup ho jaao tum dono, Drsihti said and looked at her mother. "Maa, Mujhe jaana hai main jaau, please mera jaane ka man hai bahut " she said, looking at her so that she could deny her.

Anjali put his hand on Drishti's and said,When I denied not to go o beta, but.

But kya ma... aapke ke bete hai aap daat dijiyega kahiyega ki jab aapne bola to woh kaaun hote hai mana karne wale."
