Scene IV
The curtain opens.
And now we shall gawk at the family's dinner table.A passing view and you can feel the tense air.Mr Verma : How is your internship going?
Mia :Ah,great.Just a little trouble with the accounts department but meh...
Mr Verma : I'm sorry I've to take this call.
Mrs Verma : You tell me,sweety.I'll see to it that they don't bother you.
Mia: You don't need to,mom.I already took care of it.They were just cribbing about the increased finances but hey, I augmented the material quality! They understood as at the end of the day profits maximised.
Mr Verma : Well,that's my daughter!
Mia : You don't have to fight over me.I don't belong to either one of you.
Mr Verma : You're my daughter!
Mia : And equally hers as well.But neither of you own me.
Mrs Verma : This is not what we meant,darling.
Mia : Oh you don't know what you meant! You two are simply too busy hating eachother.
Mr Verma : I think that is enough food for the night.Get back in your room,Mia.
Mia : Wow! And that is how the CEO treats his love child!
Mr Verma : You're taking this too far.It's not about that!
Mia : Yes it's not about that.It's about you two and your differences.Sort your own shit before you try and teach me!
Mia exits.
Mrs Verma : Surely,your daughter.
Mr Verma : I don't know why do we even try to have family meals.It's not like she doesn't know about the broken state of her family.
Mrs Verma : This is to make things a little normal around.Give her some family atmosphere.
Mr Verma :As if that can happen with you around.
With a sigh,he leaves as well.
Mrs Verma : Well,I guess,it's just you and me.I'll help you out.
Cynthia : Oh no madam,you mustn't.I'll do it by myself.
Mrs Verma : It's alright,Cyn.Lets get these dirty dishes all dolled up.
Scene V
Now our perverted selves, sneak into Mia's bedroom.After the turmoil downstairs.We ought to find something interesting.Wanna make a bet that the princess is thrashing stuff around?
Mia: I'm sorry.God,I'm tired of all this.
Aarush: Open you window,baby!
Mia : What the hell Aarush? Why did you sneak in again? You know dad is home today!
Aarush : You can scream at me after you explain me why your cheeks are stained?
Mia : Because I didn't wash them yet?
Aarush : Your smartass replies don't work with me,shorty!
Mia : Can't you simply call me by my name?
Aarush : And won't that be fun?
Mia : Okay,this is it! Leave! I just can't stand talking,right now!
Aarush: Wanna try pushing me again,doll? Let me get this straight,you're telling me what happened,right now.
Mia: I'm sorry.It's just I get angry sometimes.
Aarush : Sometimes?
Mia : Yeah,yeah.Well,mum and dad are always bickering and they...they fucking try to fake shit in front of me.I hate that.I...I'm just.I want reasons,Aarush.
Aarush: What reasons?
Mia: Reason my mom left me,reason my dad never married her,reason this... my dad's wife, sticks around.I don't know.
Aarush: Hey,that's enough stress for a day! Let's get out of here.
Mia: And raise the alarm? And wake up the entire neighbourhood?
Aarush: Don't act so innocent,my little thief.You know how to shut the alarm.
Mia :Ah,my intelligence.It overwhelms me.What will I get for making all this effort?
Aarush: Anything you want,baby.
Mia: Oh you can act sexy,sweety.Nothing is gonna happen till you win me back.And I want an icecream.
Aarush: Fine,I'll buy you your Mint icecream,which is absolutely disgusting.
Mia: Don't you dare insult my baby! And I don't want you to buy it.
Aarush : Oh I can't make icecream,doll!
Mia : Heavens no,I wanna eat it.I just want you to get it from my fridge.
Aarush: You want me to sneak in your kitchen and steal your icecream?
Mia: See,that way we'll both be partners in crime.
Aarush: No I can't comprehend your twisted logics.
Mia : You don't need to.Now hurry up! We've got shit to do!
Aarush :And you were crying minutes ago.I have told you you're bipolar,right?
Mia: I have Multiple Personality disorder.Will you get up?
Aarush: I'm quite comfy in your lap!
Mia : I'll make you pizza tomorrow?
Aarush : Your infamous anonymous pizza?
Mia: Aha! Now C'mon boy!
Aarush : I'm up! I'm up! Let's rock and rob,baby!
