Mon Amour (My Love)

25

Next day in the morning,

During breakfast,

K: Hello everyone, I have a news.

An: Now what do you want?

K: Yes, Mrs Jha I want something that is my right, I don't trust you people so to be on safer side, I want you to pay 2 months rent in advance in 24 hours or the doors are open for you to leave. This is my house not an orphanage or old age home where I will let you to stay without paying the money.

P: From where will we arrange 1 lakh in 24 hrs.

K: It is none of my concern.

Some time later in the garden,

Madhumati: If Shyam had informed us about his marriage with Anjali bitiya. We would have happily agreed to his relation with that orphan. She was nothing but a burden on us. But look at the sudden change of events, she eloped and married Arnav S.R. and is now we have to follow her orders.

Garima: True, she is making our life miserable.

NK how heard everything is burning in rage.

In the afternoon, Akash comes back from the interviews disappointed since no one gave him a job, no one wants to get in the bad books of the king of fashion industry (ASR who is known for his anger) by helping Akash. Akash is now jobless with no means of earning with very little savings and high expenditures.

After Lunch in servant quarters,

Ak: I haven't been selected by any company yet, we are 10 members and the rent amount is 50,000 per month. Every member has to pay their own share i.e. 5000. I will pay for my family that is 5 members for 2 months it is equal to 50,000. Buaji and Aunty will have to pay 20,000. You three(Shyam, Anjali and Sheetal) will pay 30,000. In this way the problem for 2 months will be sorted.

An: Akash how can to consider us separate from you, we are your family. You will have to pay for 8 members.

Ak: You separated us, not me. Moreover your husband is a lawyer and must be earning well, he should take care of us, not the other way around.

Sh: Leave it di, if he could betray ASR, we can't be sure when he willn't betray us. It is better for us if we take care of ourselves.

P: Akash, from where will maa and buaji pay the rent.

Ak: They used to pay 20,000 per month for their luxmi nagar house so what is the problem. We don't have that kind of money to do charity anymore.

G: It's okay. We will arrange the money.

Later in the evening, the doorbell rings and HP opens the door.

Man: I'm here to meet Khushi.

HP: Wait, let me call her.

HP: Bhabhi there is some man who wants to meet you, I have asked him to wait in the in the garden.

K thoughts : He's here.

Khushi goes to the garden and hugs him.

K: Congratulations I am so happy for you. Let us go to my room. We will talk there.

K: HPji, bring some snacks in the room and some orange juice.

All the ladies were shocked seeing not just khushi' s attire but how she hugged that man.

After an hour or so, Khushi and the mystery guy came out of the room.

Man: I will see you soon. Leaves.

An: Seems like you have someone else, isn't it too soon. New flavor of the month is it?

Sh: it might be a one time thing. Smirks.

Madhumati: She got what she wanted, that is why she didn't oppose the divorce, not even once. Money can't buy you morals and character.

Garima: What else can we expect from an orphan, bad blood like her, who knows who her parents were /are , or why they left her? For girls like you beauty is the key to earn money. Seduce a rich guy and extract money right? You are such a gold digger, who can sleep with anyone if he offers you enough money. First she broke our payal's 1st marriage then she tried to seduce our innocent Shyam and Arnav bitwa. Now that you are getting divorced, i don't know what scandals you will do. Atleast have some shame not to bring your flings or boy toys home.

Sheetal, Anjali and Payal were smirking, Mami was disgusted.

Arnav who just entered the house looked like he was ready to kill.

A: How dare you say something like this about my wife.

K: Calm down Arnav, i know how to handle her, you go and freshen up. You are questioning my character, Mrs. gupta or should i call you Ms. Sharma.

G: Gulps

K: So there was a girl from a middle class family with cunning brain and desire to be rich. She was 19 when she met a typical tall, dark and handsome guy with a big fat bank balance. She seduced him and in the process fell in love with him. He was a spoiled brat, a womanizer who pretended to love Ms. Garima Sharma, when in reality he just loved her body. Both were happy as one was getting sex and the other was getting expensive gifts. It went on like this for 2 years. One day, her family forced her to marry the guy of their choice. She tried to contact her lover but he didn't care. One day prior to her wedding she came to know that she is pregnant and decided to ran away, but he left her. He was not interested in marriage or her. She came back home and by now everyone came to know about her pregnancy. Her family disowned her. She was roaming on the streets with no where to go. On the road she saved a lady's life, who was none other than our dear Ms. Gupta. The lady after hearing the news of her parents death, took her along with her. She used to live with her brother Mr Sashi G. in a few days Ms. Sharma impressed Ms. Gupta, who forced her brother to get married again. Few weeks later Mrs Garima G., announced her pregnancy news to them stating to be 3 weeks pregnant when in reality she was 2 months in. Later acc. to everyone a premature baby girl was born when the reality was something else. They named her Payal S. Gupta.

So Mrs Garima G. did I miss something?

G: What nonsense is this, since you couldn't bear the truth, you are trying to defame me?

K: I can prove it if you want. Want me to call your brother to verify my facts, DNA test can easily confirm that Payal isn't my babuji's biological daughter.

G: Seeing no other option, How do you know all this?

K: Unfortunately before lieing you didn't knew one thing, in the accident in which babuji's 1st wife died, due to the accident doctor's told him that he can never become a father, so when you said that you are pregnant he went to the doctor, who again said the same thing, few years later after saving money he did a DNA test, which proved that he isn't her father. Still he loved payal like his own blood but she was always jealous of me.

P: This is not true, I am not an illegitimate child. Amma tell her to stop this rubbish.

K: Believe whatever you want. Don't you dare point a finger on my character, I have enough information to spoil your life. Payal if you want to know your father ask your mother or me.

Khushi left with her head held high, everyone else is looking at garima and payal with disgust and pity respectively.

NK: Now we know exactly who is the characterless and bad blood. Smirk and leaves.

How many of you want Payal's father to be Arvind M.?

Let me know your thoughts.
