Chapter 3 - First Meeting
The moment the guests sat down, Sujata began her chat with Ragini. She started subtle by asking her about her work, her hobbies and such. Soon, she plunged into asking about her likes and dislikes. She also questioned about what kind of husband she was planning to choose for herself in future.
"Um...I haven't given it much thought aunty."
"Oh come on Ragini! There must be some type of guys you like. Cute ones, handsome ones? Bad boys?" she teased, making Ragini blush.
"Or geek types. Like Maa chose." Uttara added. "You could have found a more handsome man than Papa. Someone who looks like SRK."
"I'll have you know that SRK wouldn't be able to handle your mother half as well as me." Ram defended. "And you for that matter. You both are a menace."
Ragini giggled at their exchange. She couldn't help but feel a little sad. 'Would me and Swara have such a happy family as well if we had our parents?' she shook her head of those thoughts. It wasn't time to think about such things.
"Enough you two. I was asking Ragini something." Sujata smiled at her. "So, Ragini dear?"
"I uh...I guess I just want a man that would love me for who I am, and not what I look like. He should let me be myself without trying to reduce me to an identity of just his wife. I would like that."
"Awww...that is so sweet!" Uttara gushed, making Ragini blush.
"Thanks. And of course, the in-laws should be understanding and loving. Like you all I suppose." she added, just as an example.
However, she didn't know the impact it just had on Sujata and Uttara.
If she could, Sujata would have asked for Ragini's hand in marriage to her son and married her off the instant Laksh came back home.
Uttara was ready to happily throw flowers and shed tears of happiness for them.
Ragini, Nikhil and Swara looked at the two women in confusion seeing their dreamy looks.
Ram, however, could probably guess what they were thinking and smacked himself on the head. "Oh, a mosquito!" he excused. However, it was enough to break the two women from the marriage they were attending in their imagination. "Now then, let me ask some questions related to your role in the film Ragini."
"Sure sir." Ragini sat determined. She had to grab the role. The orphanage's fate was at stake.
As the questions continued, Nikhil was getting bored. He was trying hard not to yawn. He cleared his throat to get their attention. "May I please use the washroom?"
