"Dare to think for yourself."

"And yahan tum family business join karna chahti ho? Khud ko toh sambhaal nhi sakti!", Dadaji said sarcastically while I was just sitting there with my hands on my head. My head was throbbing with pain!

Why can't he just calm down for a while?

"Ab jawaab kyun nhi de rahi ho tum? Wese toh har baat ka jawaab hota hai.. ", He continued.

"Am not feeling good right now. Can we talk about this later?", I asked with a little assertiveness.

"Sharab peeke ghar aati ho and you're not even guilty about it. Amazing! Bahut tarakki kar rhi hai teri laadli Sehaj!", He even taunted Chachu now.

"Jao! Jitna araam karna hai karo.. Shaam ko milte hain.. I will have to plan something for you.", Dadaji said and went upstairs to his room and I finally sighed.

Ab kya karenge yeh.., I internally cried.

Chachu came with a glass of nimbu paani in my room while I was throwing my stuff here and there.

"Kya dhund rahi hai ?", He asked.

"Charger!! Pata nahi kahan chala gaya.. Jab bhi kuch chahiye hota hai milta hi ni hai .. ", I cribbed.

"Beta sar dard me na kuch nhi milta. Lo! Phele have this nimbu paani. "

When I didn't listen to him, he grabbed me by my arms gently and made me sit on my messy bed. He handed me the glass and gestured me to drink it.

I relaxed and drank it.

"Aage se peena ho toh mujhe boldiya kar na.. Ek se ek collection hai mere paas.. Dono chacha bhatiji saath me piyenge.. ", He said winking. I smiled at him.

How is he even the son of that grumpy old man?

"Sabko pata hai ghar me bar hai.. Jahan aap aur bhaiya jaake chill karte ho, kabhi kabhi toh wo khud aajate hain.. Par ekdin mene peeli toh pura ghar sar pe uthaliya inhone.. What's wrong with him ?"

"Toh tu bhi aajaya kar na.. Kisne roka hai ?", Chachu said in his usual tone.

"Han zaroor.. Aapke jo pitaji hai na mujhe us bar ke aas paas bhi dekhle na.. To bhi taunt maarna shuru hojate hain.. Matlab hypocrisy ki hadd hai.. Beta piye theek hai, pota piye theek hai, bas is duniya ke saare rules and regulations mereliye hain! ", I got really angry at the end.

"Shh.. Abhi zyada mat soch.. Me hun na.. Yeh peele aur sojaa thodi dair, Okay ?", He said standing up and stroking my hair.

I half-heartedly nodded.

We all were sitting in the hall staring at each other's faces and my so-called Dadaji was sitting in front of me like Mogambo but the only difference was he will never ever say this dialogue to me, "Mogambo khush hua..." because he hardly ever gets happy.

Chachu and Chachi were clearly not in a good mood. Do they know what this Hitler have to say ?

I was wearing a simple blue blouse with distressed denim, white sneakers and a checked shirt on the top.

"As everybody know kal ek bruch party hai ghar me, hmare kuch family friends and business associates aarhe hain, I want ki Meera kal tum wahan ho. ", He told me. Just that ?

"Business ke toh aas paas bhi aap mujhe bhatakte hue dekhna nhi chahte.. Aur hamare family friends se me milu ya na milu, aapko kya ?", Though there was no problem in the deal, how can I shut my mouth ?

Inse argument karna meri habit ban gayi hai ..

"Kyunki unhi family friends me se ek family se tumhare liye rishta aya hai.. Though I wasn't considering it phele par tumhari harkaton ki wajah se lag raha hai ki yahi sai hai.. "

"What the ... ", I exclaimed but Chachu coughed in-between signaling me to mind my language. I just rolled my eyes.

"No! Wait! Kya sai hai ? Shaadi ? Are you serious ? Yeh kaisi punishment hai ? ", I almost shouted.

"Yeh punishment nhi hai.. Tumhare liye meri chinta hai.. ", He calmly explained.

Has he gone nuts ? Koi inhe mental hospital bhejo !!!

"Ya offcourse.. Chinta! Please Mr. Raput.. Aapko meri chinta ki koi zarurat nhi hai.. Kyunki agar aap isi speed se meri chinta karte rahe na toh agle saal me bologe beta 22 ki umar me hi Maa banjao.. Tabhi akkal ayegi tumhe.. ", My sarcasm was spilling out.

"Meera! ", He sternly exclaimed. I just looked other side showing my refusal.

"Kal wo log arhe hain.. Aur tum us ladke se aur uski family se mil rahi ho wobhi puri tameez aur khushi ke saath. ", He almost ordered.

This time I laughed, "Aur kuch Dadaji ? Ni, matlab abhi aap kahoge na ja beta kuen se chalang maar, I will do that also bina kuch kahe.. Aap to bhagwaan ho, jesa kahoge wesa karungi me. ", I said mimicking an ideal grand-daughter (Atleast in his eyes). He just sighed.

"Ni, aap mujhe phele yeh batayie, aapne mujhse bina puche unhe bula kaise liya ? Am just 21 for gods sake agar aap bhul rahe hain toh !", I asked him.

"Tum bina puche Mumbai jaake entrance exam de sakti ho, me kisi ko ghar bhi nhi bula sakta ?", He replied.

What the hell ?

I looked at Chachu and then looked at him. Inhe kaise pata chala ?, It was just between me and Chachu!

"Sehaj ki taraf mat dekh.. Usne nhi bataya mujhe. ", He cleared my confusion.

He took out an envelope from his pocket and kept on the table, "Yeh aaj subah hi aya hai, entrance ka result hai isme. Yeh letter aya toh pata chala mujhe. "

"Kya aya hai result ? Aapne dekha ?", I asked immediately.

"Mene tumhe mana kiya tha ki tum business nhi padogi, Aur akele Mumbai jaake toh bilkul nhi! Toh kis se puchke gayi thi Mumbai ? ", He asked sternly.

Before I could say anything, "Khair, Ab yeh letter kal party ke baad hi padha jayega vobhi tab jab tum sab vesa hi karogi jesa mene abhi kaha.. "

"You can't do this to me! ", I said picking up the envelope but I found it empty, "Letter kahan hai ?", Now, this was hell irritating.

He stood up, "Party ke baad letter miljayega tumhe. "

He was going towards his study but stopped, "And I hope in phate hue kapdon ke ilawa bhi hoga tumhare paas kuch, kal zara kuch dhang ka pehen lena!", He said sorry ordered and went away.

Why does he always do this to me ?
