It is a fiction about a lawyer named JK. He had a dream to chase. He was born in a conservative family and aspired to be a lawyer. He fought with his Papaji and seek permission. He joins a law college and then he falls in love with Pinky. A Punja...
Synopsis: Last chapter we saw Roshini takes a lot of time to do her make up, hence annoying Papa. They start for office and something bad happens. *********************************
Oops! Papa met with an accident Thud! Roshini saw her Papa fell down and she went blank. She had too many things in her hands and Papa needed help. She never knew how to solve a panic situation and within a fraction of second, she saw Papa got up and was grinning at Mrs Ahuja, Pinty's mom, who stayed downstairs. His grin changed into a smile all of a sudden, because Mrs Ahuja was only a Punjabi connection he had in his apartment. He loved to chat with her in Punjabi and in turn most of the days, she would cook for him his favorite Tinda, kidney beans, rabdi and Jalebi. Mishti often felt jealous that JK spoke with her so friendly and sometimes she felt insecure about it.
One Teez day, it happened that Mrs Ahuja complimented Mishti that she is really blessed to have JK as her husband and must have done something good in her past life to get such a sweetheart husband.Only privileged got a good husband, she often said with teary eyes.She was a divorcee and a single mother. Mishti often felt that Leena Ahuja was trying to woo or seduce her JK. JK on the other hand would irritate her saying that Leena is his Half girlfriend but in his heart he knew, she was like a sister to him and she too looked at him with respect and brotherly love. When Mishti got paranoid with jealousy, he would say:
"Mishti darling, all Indians are my brothers and sisters, except you. "
Mishti would then be happy and say, "Next Rakshabandan, I make sure Leena will be your Rakhi sister and JK would playfully say, I will gift her lipsticks, with a pun intended in his statement. *********************************** Papa was limping in pain and he slowly walked towards Roshini. She was still numb and dumb stricken. She was day dreaming and missed the scene and cursed herself for it. She saw Papa fell down and Leena Aunty was helping him to get up and he was yelling at her. Soon she saw he gave her (Leena) his cute, adorable smile and Roshini was clueless why he first yelled and then what changed it to smile? Roshini took the car key from JK and kept her luggage on the back seat and they both sat on the front.
They converse:
Rosh: Papa, are you OK?
Papa Yelled: What a nut you are and without giving me a helping hand, you are asking me, if I am OK, after a mishap...
Rosh: Sorry, l missed to see what happened? and I just saw you fell...
I think we see our family Dr now, as I feel your bp is low and you don't eat properly Papa (She shouted)
Papa : Excuse me, I am fit and fine. I don't have Bp, VP or sugar vugar issues OK.
Yes, I get tension migraine and that has not left me from last 20 years and occasionally I get fever for which only I see your so called Dr uncle OK.
Rosh: You have one more problem and that is you feel cold in hot weather also. When Yash and Mishti want AC, you don't want fan also. Very funny!!!!
Papa: That is why I use a separate bedroom in this AC city home.
Rosh: Poor Papa, you know what Yash has spread the news about Mama room and Papa room to our close realitives, now they have a topic to gossip.
Papa: Embararassing, will tell Mishti to whack him and I still be his hero Papa. She will be a vampire (Laughs).
Rosh: Jokes apart, tell me, how you fell?
Papa: Promise me, you won't tell it to anyone? Not even Mishti.
Rosh gave a sheepish smile: No, Papa sweet heart.
Papa: It was my mistake, l was over phone, asking Shruti to open the office and check my emails , as we will be reaching office super duper late.
Rosh: Then?
Papa: She said she will keep the reply ready,before we reach... Shruti is a smart good girl.
Roshini: Irritably, whatever you don't digress Papa, how you fell?
Papa: oh that.. I was over phone and didn't see that road roller hit me hard ..... I mean, your 1000 volt,100 Kg Leena Aunty bumped over me and humpty dumpty had a great fall.
Rosh: I think I will drive
Papa: I have to reach office today...
Rosh: Funny
Papa removes his jacket and see his elbows are bruised. Roshini immediately opens her bag, she takes out cotton,savlon and Band - Aid and give first aid to Papa. Papa is hissing like a snake.... Sssss
Papa: You carry a mall in your bag... Great and thanks...
Suddenly his phone rings. It says MAA calling.... He loved calling Mishti in that way in front of Yash and Maddy when they were alone :
He receives the phone and say:
Haey! Bolo
He was on his Bluetooth and Roshini is clueless what they are talking?
Papa: Maa, now I am driving but I like Green and Yellow ... Send me pics and talk to you at night.. Bye Rakchi
Mishti had few friends and Leena was the only one who mingled with her well in their apartment. She became Mishti's companion be it for shopping, parlour, going or to school to drop and pickup their children or just to stroll around in the open ground of their Sunshine complex. Though JK and his behavior with Leena, made her, 'J' and furious yet both of them shared a deep friendship. Leena taught her to cook in Punjabi way, the food JK loved. Mishti had learnt a few dishes buttering her mother in law, JK's angry bird mom, yet Leena owns the credit to transform JK's Dharampatni (wife)to a total Punjabi,making her forget that she was a Bengali lady. Yes, JK loved her transformation but he made sure his Bengali girl is not lost and he often used to converse in her language in their private conversation time. Yash baby often got confused and got stuck in their world of Punjabi and Bengali. He only used to speak Hindi and English. Since, last two years when Bengaluru became their new home, Yash took more interest to learn Kannada and would pick up the words like:
Dhanyavada, Namaskara, Susvagata and JK would take delight in the fact that his baby boy is his replica, as far as learning a language was concerned. JK was fluent in languages like Gujrathi and Marathi. Speaking Hindi, Punjabi and English was something by default. He learnt Bengali for his wife but learning a South Indian language was much beyond his capacity and imagination and in this challenging task,Yash made him proud and tutors him in Kannada.
Papa is happy that his little jumping jack will be back home today evening from his school camp and he will be seeing his baby after seven long days....
