Pragya was making breakfast for Naina and Cutie in the kitchen. She did called Abhi but there was no response. She assumed he might be busy.
Abhi “ Thinking about me?” Pragya turned back and looked at him with shock.
Abhi walking towards her “ Why are u so shocked dear?” Pragya “ How come u are here?” Abhi “ Don’t u remember the shift work? I am always doing that, it’s u who is the one making changes to it!”
Pragya smiled hearing that and turned back.
Abhi “ So…” Pragya “ So?” Abhi “ What’s for breakfast?” Pragya “ Bread toast and sandwiches!” Abhi “ That’s it?” Pragya “ I will be cooking more for lunch though…”
Abhi moved closer to Pragya and hugged her from back.
Pragya “ Don’t hug me like this…” She said that with heavy breathing.
Abhi “ Why is that so?” He asked by whispering into her ear.
Pragya “ What if anyone see?” Abhi continued to hug and nibbling her ear making her lose senses.
Cutie “ Di!!!!” She screamed for Pragya and Abhi let her off. Pragya frowned at him for his misbehaviour.
Abhi “ First go and see her! If not I will disturb u!!”
Pragya walked off from there and was saying to herself that she would have her time to teach him a lesson.
After sometime, when she came back to the kitchen, Abhi had already done the breakfast for them and she looking at that was stunned.
Abhi “ Done! Breakfast is ready! U all have this first and I have to go back home to freshen myself!”
Pragya “ So fast!!!” Abhi smiled and said “ It’s just a simple breakfast! But u should cook lunch heavily for them!”
Pragya “ U are not eating with us?”
Abhi shook his head as no.
Pragya “Why?” She asked worriedly.
Abhi “ Just joking…will be back later!”
Pragya smiled and asked “When will u be back?”
Abhi “Will call u!” He said that by pulling her cheek before leaving.
Pragya rubbing her cheek, Nowadays he is very naughty by touching me and hugging me!
She smiled widely as she loves to be in his love.
Abhi had forgotten to make a call to her and she called him after finishing lunch.
Abhi “ O Pragya! I had totally forgotten that i have a meeting today! Will meet u all in the evening!” Pragya “ What is this? I thought we all can have lunch together after a long time.” Abhi “ Sorry…” Pragya “ It’s okay…” As she was saying that she hurriedly packed the lunch box.
Abhi “ Will call u later! Going to take the lift! And u know there will be no signal inside there…bye…” Pragya “What? U are taking lift already!!” She quickly took the lunch box she had packed and rushed out of the house.
Cutie seeing that wondered why di was running in a lightning speed!
Cutie “Ma! Where is she going?” Naina “Should be giving lunch to friend…” She said that and went towards the kitchen to check out what Pragya had prepared.
Cutie saw Pragya’s wallet on the table.
Cutie, Di forgot her wallet!!! I go and give her so that she can buy for me ice-cream!!
She took that and rushed out of the house without informing Naina.
Cutie couldn’t find Pragya and was upset.
Rakesh who came by there with his bicycle saw her.
Rakesh “Hey Cutie! Going for shopping?” Cutie “ Shopping? Ma only does that….” Rakesh laughed and asked “ Then why are u having such a big wallet?” Cutie “ It’s di’s wallet…I want to give her!” Rakesh “ You mean Pretty Pragya? Come get on my bicycle! I just saw her at the entrance there!” Cutie “ Really?” Rakesh “ Yes let’s go!” Cutie sat on his bicycle and they saw Pragya taking an auto.
Cutie “ Oh no! She is taking auto!” Rakesh “ No problem! We can follow her!”
Both followed the auto as for Pragya she was following Abhi who was driving his bike in a narrow street.
Abhi stopped driving and parked his bike in an isolated place and started to walk. Pragya realized that she forgot to bring her wallet in hurry.
Cutie then ran towards Pragya “ Di! Your wallet!” Pragya “ You are here?” The auto driver “ Mam if u can pay the money faster it will be better….” Pragya “ Oh sorry…” By saying that she paid the money from her wallet.
The auto went and Rakesh “ I am also here Pretty Pragya!” Pragya “ Why u two came here?” Rakesh “ We followed u as Cutie wanted to pass your wallet.” Pragya “ Oh…Thank u Cutie!” The trio were waiting for Abhi’s arrival as they knew he should return to take his bike.
Abhi walked towards his bike with a tensed look and saw the trio sitting on the pavement.
Rakesh was on Pragya’s lap as for Cutie she was leaning against Pragya as if she wants to fall asleep.
Abhi, What are they doing here??
He walked towards them and saw Pragya asking Rakesh and Cutie to stand up.
Pragya smiled at him widely holding onto the lunch box.
Abhi looked at the trio in front of him and was angry for their actions. The trio were standing in straight row.
Abhi “ Why did u follow me?” Pragya “ You didn’t eat anything and left! That’s why I followed u to pass this lunch box…” Abhi moved to the next person “ Why did u follow me?” Cutie “ I followed di…she left her wallet on the table!” He then moved to the last person with an even more furious look. Abhi “ Why did u follow me?”
Rakesh “ I followed Pretty Pragya with Cutie!” Abhi got annoyed and said “ All of u are just mad!” The trio looked helpless of their action as for Abhi he walked in front.
Abhi, Crazy! Who ask her to follow me? Then now Cutie is also here leaving Purvi alone at home! Then this RAKESH, he still calls my Pragya as Pretty Pragya!
He looked behind to see and was shocked to see Rakesh being carried by Pragya!
Abhi signalled them to come near him.
They came in front of him and Pragya “ Why are u so angry?” Abhi “ Why are u carrying him on your hip?” Pragya “ He said he can’t walk…I mean he is tired after peddling bicycle for very long…” She said that by carressing Rakesh’s hair and Rakesh leaned against her shoulder with a smirk towards Abhi.
Abhi “ Pass him to me! I will carry him!” Pragya “ It’s okay…I can manage…” Abhi “ It’s not about u managing! But this boy who is dreaming about u!” Rakesh made a fake cry and said “ I will not leave Pretty Pragya!” Abhi “ Damn! He is telling the same thing again!” Pragya “ Why are u so mean! He is such a sweet and small boy! Don’t be so possessive of me in this way!” Abhi “ Really? U had possessed me and u are saying I am possessive of u!” Pragya “ Huh? I POSSESSED U? What do u mean?” Abhi forcefully took Rakesh from her and walked towards his bike.
Cutie “ Di! I think friend don’t like Rakesh!” Pragya carrying her “ Friend don’t like Rakesh to friend me…” Cutie “ Why?” Pragya smiling lightly “ He is mad about me…”
Abhi trying to start his bike realized it was out of petrol. Abhi was about to kick the bike but Pragya stopped him saying that Rakesh was sitting on it. Pragya “ Why do u have to be so harsh?” Abhi “ It’s out of petrol!” Pragya “ So what? We can call a taxi or something to go back home…” Abhi “Today is transport strike Pragya!!” Pragya “ What?? When did this happen? I came in an auto just now!” She said that in an alarmed tone.
Abhi “ Maybe that was his last ride for today!” Pragya remembered the driver urgently asking for money and understood the reason.
Rakesh “ No problem…I have my bicycle…I can drop u all!” Abhi was in no mood to tell anything as his bicycle is the kid’s bicycle. Pragya smiled at his innocence and said “ So sweet of u Rakesh but then it’s too small for us…” Abhi smiled cheekily at them.
Rakesh “ Oh…I am also tired Pretty Pragya..if not I could have brought Cutie back to home…” Pragya “Awww…u are too sweet…” She said that with a wide smile.
Abhi “ Enough of this sweetness when the sun is with scorching heatness!” He told that in a loud voice.
Abhi “ Pass me my lunch box!” Pragya showed him that she placed it on the bike.
Abhi “ Then where is it gone now?” Rakesh realized that when Abhi made him sit on the bike, he heard something dropped.
Abhi looked around and saw the lunch box dropped onto the ground.
Abhi “What is this? WHO dropped it?” He asked that by taking it and Rakesh “ It accidentally dropped when u made me sit here….” Abhi stared at him and Pragya “ Arrey stop staring at a small child like this..anyways it’s still in good condition na…open and eat it…”
Abhi opened the lid and sat on the pavement to eat when he saw the trio looking at him and the food with hunger.
Abhi smiled at them and signalled then to come.
Abhi “ All are hungry?” The trio nodded their head and Abhi “ Ok…we will share..I will feed all of u…” Abhi feed Cutie first followed by Rakesh and then Pragya. Pragya “ How about u?” Abhi “ U feed me!” Pragya became shy and took the spoon from him and fed Abhi.
Then Pragya fed all of them. Cutie and Rakesh looked at each other as they were still hungry.
Cutie “ I want ice- cream…” Rakesh “ I want it too!” Abhigya shook their head looking at each other.
Cutie “ Friend! Di have money! Can we buy ice-cream?” Abhi trying not to laugh said “ Why not? Ask your di to buy…” Pragya looked down and smiled a lot.
Cutie “ Di! Ice-cream!!” Pragya looking at Cutie “ How can I buy when there is no shops here Cutie?” Rakesh “Let’s walk and find for shop!”
Abhi “ Wait! Let me make a call!” Pragya “Yes u should call Purvi…”
Abhi corrected “ Naina…” Abhi called and Naina was scolding for nobody informing her and went out.
Abhi “ No naina…it was never planned…u just take a chill…” Naina “How to be chill? Today there is transport strike and u all end up somewhere! How would I answer to Rakesh’s parents?”
Abhi “ Okok! We will call and inform them. I will ask Purab to send a car here to pick up us!”
Naina “ Do whatever u want Bhai…but this is just unexpected!” She said that and ended the call.
Abhi smiled at her anger and Pragya “ U are smiling? We can hear her shouting through your phone but u are not angry?”
Abhi messing her hair by said “ I missed her scolding for a long time..and now when she does that I am happily into calming her down!”
Pragya “ Why are u like this?” Abhi adjusting her hair that he messed up “Why are u asking this question everytime?”
Pragya smiled looking down as for Cutie and Rakesh looking at this realized their ice-cream craving will not happen if Abhigya continue to romance. Abhi was then making a call to Purab.
Rakesh whispered “ Cutie! They are not serious about our ice cream!” Cutie “ Yes Rakesh! But I want it!” Rakesh “ I have a plan!” Cutie “ What plan?” Rakesh whispered and Cutie hearing that worried.
Cutie “ No! We cannot do this!” Rakesh “ Then ice-cream?” Cutie “ We will ask them again!” Rakesh “ Okay…” Both went near Abhigya.
Rakesh and Cutie at the same time “ We want ice-cream now!!” They screamed continuously and Abhi silenced them by loudly saying “ Shut up!!”
Cutie seeing that almost cried and Rakesh was scared that he hid behind Pragya.
Pragya “ Why are u so loud? U can’t be so fierce!” Abhi “ Then how Pragya? They are asking for something that can’t even be get from here now! Are we doing it by a choice in not getting ice cream for them? No right? If they can’t understand then we have to be strict in this way only….”
He said that and looked elsewhere.
Rakesh stepped beside Cutie.
Rakesh “ Come…we go and find for shop Cutie! This angry bird is always like this…” By saying that both started to walk towards Rakesh’s bicycle when Pragya told them to stop.
Abhi “ Oh you two are acting too much for an ice cream!” Cutie remained silent and still looked scared of his loud voice just now.
Pragya went near Abhi and said “ Look at Cutie…she was scared of your loud voice that she is not even speaking anything until now!” Abhi looked at Cutie who was sitting behind Rakesh. She was keep on looking down with teary eyed
Abhi ran to Cutie and kneeled.
Abhi “ Sorry…very sorry…” Cutie still was silent.
Abhi “ You won’t forgive your friend?”
Rakesh “ Cutie! I am starting to go!” He said as he is adjusting himself on bicycle.
Abhi looking at Rakesh “ You are the one making it worse!”
Pragya “ First u tell sorry to him!” Abhi “ Why should I?” Pragya “ What u tell bad about him makes Cutie feel bad too..after all he is her friend too…” Abhi “ Is that so Cutie?” Cutie nodded her head in response.
Abhi “ Sorry…” Pragya “ Sorry to who?” Abhi “ Sorry Rakesh…” Rakesh “ I don’t need sorry…I want ice cream!” Abhi “ Acha baba…I will get u one! If not more than one for sure!” Rakesh cheered “ Wow! Yay!!”
Cutie was still silent which made Abhi worried.
Abhi “ I will buy for u Osaka Cutie…pls talk na…” Cutie looked up at him and then looked down again.
Abhi looked at Pragya and signalled her to help him.
Pragya “ Friend is naughty na Cutie…Let’s leave him here and we all can go back to house!” Hearing that Cutie shouted “ No!! HE is my UNCLE too!” Abhi smiled and was filled with happiness hearing that.
Cutie get down from the bicycle and hugged Abhi.
Cutie “ I won’t leave u here uncle friend!” Abhi looking at her in weird look “ Uncle friend?” Cutie “ Haan u are my uncle and friend! So its uncle friend!” Pragya and Rakesh were keep on telling uncle friend to tease him making him irritated.
Abhi “ Enough! Only she can tell that!” He said that by looking at Pragya and Rakesh. Cutie “ No…I will call u friend…I don’t like others teasing my friend!” Abhi kissed her forehead and said “ U can call me whatever u feel like…”
Pragya smiled at them. Rakesh was about to ask them something when Abhi received a call.
Precap
Abhi panting heavily and looking at Pragya. Pragya “ What happened? Why are u like this?” Abhi covered Pragya’s mouth and wrapped her in his arms by hiding behind the pillar. Pragya fainted seeing her husband passing them and Abhi knew this would be her reaction.
