Chapter 22 - Never Judge Without Evidence

"So this is it?"

"Yes Chachi. This is the café where that stupid boyfriend stealer is there." Kavya sneered. "Ragini is such a clingy menace."

Ayaan rolled his eyes at her accusation. 'That description would fit you perfectly Kavya.' his brother already told him about Ragini. Laksh described the sisters in good light. But Ayaan still was in doubt if it was because he liked Ragini. They could really be a menace for all he knew. Maybe Laksh was mistaken? 'Whatever it may be, I guess I'll find the truth for myself today.'

#Inside#

Ragini looked up as the doorbell jingled as some more customers entered. However, what caught her eyes was the presence of Kavya. 'That brown haired bimbo! Ugh! She has the gall to step in here!'

"What did that towel ever do to you? You look like you're swinging it's neck." Tina snickered as she neared her to collect the glasses. "Go tend to the new arrivals, would ya?"

(If anyone's forgetting, Tina as Dia are the helpers at Tanuja's café.)

"You go. I'm not serving that lady!" Ragini put the towel on her shoulder and snatched the tray full of empty glasses from her.

"Hey, I wa-"

"I would not try to question her if I were you Tina." came Dia's voice from behind her. "Who knows if she decided to smash those glasses on your head? I sure would want to live another day."

Tina gulped. "Right!" she kept the towel away and walked towards the new customers with a bright smile. "Welcome to Mermaid Café. What would you like?"

Vandanna, Ayaan and Kavya looked up towards her.

Vandanna nudged Kavya, as if questioning if it was Ragini. Kavya shook her head.

"Um...ma'am?" Tina repeated.

"We would decide after a minute. For now, can we get some water?" Ayaan uttered since Vandanna didn't respond.

"Sure sir! I'll get it right away."

Vandanna's eyes followed the way Tina left with suspicion. Suddenly, something caught her eyes. "Isn't...isn't that Sanskar?"

It was only natural that she would know Sanskar. After all, all of their families knew each other since the five - Arjun, Sanskar, Abhi, Rishi and Laksh were almost more like brothers than best friends.

Ayaan looked her way and indeed found Sanskar there. "It is. But what's he doing cleaning tables?" from the corner of his eyes he also saw Abhi. "Abhi's here to and...and collecting the glasses? What's going on in here?! Did someone shift us to another dimension?"

"Now I understand why it's so crowded here in the café today. Abhi the Rockstar is here." Kavya commented. "Look Chachi, they're taking advantage of his fame as well. These girls are making them work. I bet they are lazying around while there workers and Laksh's friends work for them!" Kavya accused.

"Hey, it might not be so. Those two girls over there." Ayaan pointed over. He tried to recall the names from when Laksh had told him. "Swara and Pragya were their names I think. They are Ragini's sisters. They are working too."
