Dawn meets Dusk
Anirudh and Batuk are in Madras. They are now walking towards Das Haveli.
~In Das Haveli~
Bondita is looking and checking her crackers eagerly.
Bhaumik enters the room.
Bhaumik: Chellam(dear), are you happy on seeing the crackers?
Bondita: Won't I? Appa, I am really waiting for diwali eagerly. But the sun and moon are opposing my wish. They aren't working fast. Look how slow the days are moving.
She makes her face blown.
Bhaumik smiled at her innocence.
Bondita: Yen(why) you are smiling now? Are you supporting that sun and moon?
Bhaumik: Illa, dear. Sun and Moon never oppose the angel.
Bondita: Angel?
Bhaumik: Ama, you are the angel.
She gave a wide smile.
Bhaumik: You are very happy because I bought you these crackers in return what will you give for me?
Bondita: What to do you want, appa? You have everything. Wait, are you going to ask me roshogulle? Illa, i won't give you. Ask me some other thing.
Bhaumik: Aiyo, wait! You are not allowing me to speak.
Bondita keeps quite.
Bhaumik: Your appa will be happy only when you accept my words and obey me.
Bondita: I am always doing that only.
Bhaumik: Yeah, today also you do the same.
Bondita: Seri!
Bhaumik: My lil angel is growing up soon. There are many evils around who are waiting to hunt the angels. So the angel need a guardian to take care of her.
Bondita: I have you and Amma.
Bhaumik: Wait, listen to me first.
Bondita: Seri!
Bhaumik: Till how many days your Amma and appa can take care of you? You must need a permanent companion right?
Bondita: Yeah, the one who can play with everytime and the one who can answer all my questions patiently.
Bhaumik: Yeah, that's why your Amma and Appa has decided to get you married.
Bondita's smile reduced.
Bhaumik: Please accept this Chellam. You will happy after marriage. Your husband will be with you always, he will play with you, talk with you and even take you to new new places.
Bondita: Illa. Why should I get married in this small age? You and Amma always say I am still a young child then why you wanted me to get married? Don't you like me now a days? That's why you are trying to send me away right?
She starts to cry.
Bhaumik: Wait, wait. Don't cry. Bondita, all your friends are getting married. Then why you are opposing it?
Bondita: Illa, I won't.
She blows her face runs away from there.
Bhaumik thinks: I must make her understand about this. In this society girls above 11 must be married or else it will be very difficult to find them a groom. Then everyone will blame Bondita in a bad way.
Bondita tries to go out of the house but hits upon Batuk and stood in the gateway itself.
Bondita: Aaah!!
Batuk: Aaah!!
Bondita: Heyy, don't you have eyes?
Batuk: What?? Helo, you only bumped on me. First of all why you came running without even seeing the way? I was on my way only.
Bondita: Enna?? I bumped into you?
Batuk is confused of her Tamil word so he kept quite.
Anirudh enters the after paying the riskshaw. Bondita's eyes turns towards him. Anirudh looks her without even blinking his eyes.
Bondita thinks: Why this man is looking at me like this? First of all who are these two, I have never seen them here before. Wait, yeah I found it. Appa was speaking about my marriage right, so I think this man is the groom.
Anirudh thinks: Who is this small girl? Why she is looking at me like this?
Bondita thinks: Illa, I should not allow him inside the house. Or else Appa will force me to get married. Bondita, show your skills.
Batuk: Why you both are looking at each other like this? Dada, come lets go inside why should we waste our time with this small girl?
Bondita: Small? You too small only right? I know with what intentions you and your grandfather came here. I won't allow it to happen.
Batuk: Grandfather? Wait a minute, are you telling about my brother?
Bondita: Is he your brother? Then why did you called him as Thatha(grandfather in Tamil)?
Batuk: Thatha Nahi Dada. Dada means brother.
Bondita: Whatever, who are you? Why you are here?
Batuk: Why should we answer you?
Anirudh: Batuk, wait. Huh, can I meet the elders of this family?
Bondita: I am chinnama of this haveli. Whatever it may be tell to me.
Anirudh looks around for elders.
Bondita: I will not allow you to come inside. I don't want to get married with you. I am still young. You go back to your house.
Anirudh: Whaat??
Bondita looks at him confusingly.
Anirudh: Huh? Sorry, I think you mistook us.
Batuk: Hey, we are not here for marriage and he is not your groom.
Bondita looks at them with confusion. Sumati arrives there.
Sumati: Bondita, to whom are you speaking?
Batuk: Bondita?? Hahahah...
She stares at him.
Anirudh: Ji Namaste huh I mean what is that hn, Vanakam!
Sumati: Vanakam! And you?
Anirudh: We are from Bengal. Siva ji sent us here for making sweets.
Sumati: Ohh!!! Vanga vanga(welcome welcome). Thank god, atleast you accepted our offer.
Bondita feels awkward after hearing this. Anirudh noticed her face expression and smiled a bit.
Sumati: Please come in.
They nodded and went in.
Sumati: Munusamy, serve them tea and biscuits.
Anirudh: Ji, it's ok.
Sumati: Tea powder is made purely in our own company. You just have to taste it once.
Anirudh smiled.
Sumati: Wait here itself, I will come with my husband.
She left the place. Bondita feels shy on her misunderstanding.
Batuk: This haveli is looking same as our Haveli, hn na dada?
Anirudh: Hn, Batuk.
Bondita smiled at him but stares at Batuk.
Batuk: Dada, that girl is staring me.
Bondita: Tell me why did you laughed at my name?
Batuk: Your name is so funny. Bondita...Sondita .... Hahaha...
Anirudh whispered: Batuk...
Bondita: My name is funny? What is your name then?
Batuk: Batuk!
Bondita: Hahaha...
Batuk: Why you are laughing?
Bondita: What is this? Batuk...kituk...situk... Hahahaha....
He stares at her.
