This part will have little to no Kuku moments.

'Oh no!' thought Mishti, but alas what happened next was ............

Even worse than what Kuhu had planned. Before Kuhu could explain her plan to Mishti, they heard sounds of argument. Exchanging bewildered looks both of them left to see who would be facing the wrath of Big Ben on a weekend.

The commotion attracted all the members of Rajvansh family. Jugnu whimpered at the glare he received from Ben ba, Kunal and Abir while the rest of the members were trying very hard not to laugh.

Seeing her husband drenched in flour from head to toe with the look on his face somewhere between anger and embarrassment, Kuhu could not help laughing out loud as she clicked the handsome Rajvansh brothers covered in flour.

Mishti too couldnot hold back and laughed out loud followed by the other members. Big ben also could not hold back the smile on her lips, though it was only for a brief moment before her eyes turned serious and Jugnu was back to his quivering self.

"It was not my fault Ben ba." Said Jugnu in a child like voice.

" Yes bua. It was not Jugnu haiyya's fault." Ketki too supported Jugnu.

"Then why is my kitchen so dirty. Parul you know right I don't like it when the kitchen is not neat. Maa Annapurna resides in kitchen and now you three have dirtied the kitchen." Said Meenakshi directing her eyes on Kunal, Abir and Jugnu.

"Kitchen ki padi hai aapko, jab apke bete aise hai" thought Abir and Kunal.

"Parul what happened here?" asked Nanu.

"That...Kunal and Abir were teasing each other and that suddenly turned into pakdam pakdai and then water holi."

"How does that explain the flour drenched trio?" asked Kaushal mama.

"Jugnu was taking the flour from the top shelf and these two ran into Jugnu and then all three fell on floor covered with flour." Replied Parul maasi.

"Are you two kids and is kitchen playground?"

Abir was shaking his head in a cute manner. Seeing this Mishti snatched Kuhu's phone and clicked a picture of Abir.

Kuhu looked at Mishti in surprise. Mishti said "too cute to handle."

Meenakshi massaged her temples. How could she scold her sons who not only were grown up but also looked so adorable. She was reminiscing their childhood days.

Nanu looked at the idiot grandsons of his and declared that the kitchen will be not only cleaned by those two, but they will be cooking the meals that day.

The announcement surprised everyone, though Abir was good at cooking, the same unfortunately did not apply to Kunal. It wouldn't be wrong to say that they were now worried for Abir.

Kuhu lifted her thumbs up and gave a faint sorry smile to her Abir bro before dispersing from there with others.

Abir who caught Kuhu's best wishes for him turned to kitchen and sighed. Taking an apron from the cabinet he looked at his Nanko.

"Shall we start now?." Asked Abir glaring at a certain someone.

"Stop glaring. Not my fault, who asked you to tease me and by the way I was thrown out of the room only once and that too today morning, but you are the most experienced person in this department."

Kunal tied the apron and after an hour they were done with cleaning.

Meanwhile Mami came into kitchen.

"Oh my mother, breakfast not ready" asked Mami, for once speaking proper English.

Though her learning was slow paced Kuhu taught her mami English patiently and gradually mami's English was improving.

"Let it be Nidhi beta, we will order some hot parathas from the dhaba. And you two, start preparing the lunch." Said Nanu. Before leaving the kitchen Nanu turned back and said "No breakfast for you two."

The two brothers were upset. They too were hungry. Nidhi's heart melted looking at these two. She too like Meenakshi was remembering those days when these two were young. It probably was one of those days in Rajvansh house, where the happy memories were recollected. After all these happy times were the motivation to endure hardships. Family is not just people living together, it is the emotions that connect them and the happiness and laughter shared not only form memories but they anchor the members to one another providing them with strength, warmth and hope.

The sulking faces in front of Nidhi mami reminded her of the two kids who would always rush around her to catch a glimpse of their sister Ketu. These were the same faces they would make when their little sister would not shower them with her smiles and attention.

Mami indicated Abir to look at his phone.

Abir checked his phone and saw that he received a message from Kuhu.

'There are Maggi packets inside the third shelf to the right of refrigerator.'

................................................................................................................................................................

Well Maggi has a special place in my heart . The lockdown has kept me away from my hostel life. I'm once again reminded of the days in my hostel when Maggi was our go to dish for a rainy weather, chilling time or bad mess food. So special mention to maggi in this update.

There may be differences in the characters from how they are shown in the serial. The way Kuhu is currently portrayed in the serial is sad. Instead of showing Kuhu as unreasonable, self centered spoilt brat, I wish the makers would depict why Kuhu became insecure of Mishti and how that could be amended. 

Let me know what you think is the best trait of Kuhu and what is the one trait of Kuhu that annoys you.

Lastly a huge thanks to Kaveri Priyam to portray Kuhu so well.
