CHAPTER 7b
Oberoi Mansion
All the men are in the kitchen preparing dishes for their guests while the ladies watching them cook.
Daadi: After so many years Tej and Shakti are cooking..
Tej: Yes, maa.. Savitri aunty is coming to our house after many years.. We want to cook something special for her and her family..
Shivaay: Are they very close to our family??
Shakti: Yes, Shivaay.. Savitri aunty’s husband and our papa are friends.. After papa passed away, Yash uncle was the one helped in guiding us in our business.. We can say besides our papa Prithviraj Singh Oberoi, Yash uncle also is the reason for the success of our Oberoi Empire..
Kalyani: Raichand Industries are most leading in business than ours.. Both of our family share a good bond.. Four of you always play with their children when you were small.. It was unforgettable moment in our life.. But their bad time, Yash bhaiya died in accident with his son and daughter in law.. Only that little girl survived in the accident..
Jhanvi: Their company faced too many loses and Savitri aunty sold their properties and went from Mumbai..
Rudra: Who survived from the accident??
Pinky: That girl wear diamonds dress..
Om: Who?? Ishana?? (ShivIka, RuMya and Prinku look at him)
Shakti: Yes, she is the one..
Annika: Poor girl.. She watched her parents death at small age..
Tej: But Ishana is not their own daughter.. She is adopted by Yash uncle..
Soumya: But, what is the need to adopt her?? Already they have their own children..
Kalyani: It’s a long story.. Even I also don’t know that much.. Your dadaji also didn’t tell me.. But, one thing I knew is that girl suffered a lot during her childhood.. She is very lucky that Yash bhaiya adopted her..
Rudra: Ishana bhabhi so pity..(Om glares him)
Pinky: Bhabhi??? When she becomes your bhabhi??
Rudra: I mean Miss Just Ishana.. When they are coming?? (Try to change the topic)
Kalyani: I invite them for lunch.. They must be coming now.. Their house is behind only..
Rudra: Right!! Behind only.. That too very far.. If walk will take 30 minutes to reach there.. Both mansions are big as well as the lawn.. I want to wave my hand at her from O’s room also very hard..
Om: Why you want wave your hand at her from my room?? My room is not facing their mansion..
Rudra: Your room is not facing their mansion but your art room is clearly facing her room.. You can see from your balcony..
Shivaay: Rudra, this is so indecent.. Peeking a girl’s room without her knowledge?? Very bad..
Rudra: I don’t peek her bhaiya.. I saw her standing at her balcony this morning but she didn’t see me..
Jhanvi: Ok.. Stop you both.. They will reach at any time.. Are the dishes ready??
Tej: Almost done.. Another 5 minutes more..
Kalyani: Ok, then.. Come, ladies.. Let’s go..
The ladies leave the kitchen leaving the men.. After finish their cooking, the men arrange the food on dining table.. The Raichands too arrive at the same time.. All the Oberois go and receive them.. Kalyani and Savitri hug each other while the other Oberois take blessings from Savitri.. The Raichands too do the same with the Oberois elders.. They go inside and take their seats at hall..
Shivaay: I think few people are missing here..
Savitri: Karan, Swetlana, Ishu and Madhu went to hospital.. They will join us in a while..
Shivaay: Hospital?? Any problem, daadi??
Savitri: Yesterday, Madhu was not well right?? So, they took her to the doctor.. Normal check up only, nothing to worry..
Rudra: Why Ishana bhabhi too went with them?? (All give a confusing look at Rudra)
NiTiMi: Bhabhi!!?
Rudra:(realised what he said) I mean your husbands are like my bhaiya, so you three are like my bhabhi.. Ishana ji also my bhabhi right?? (does his logic sign)
Tia: Hawww.. So sweet.. That is why you and Ishu baby get easy to mingle together.. I think universe also wants this..
Arjun: You know what, Rudra?? We saw her laughing wholeheartedly after so many days.. It’s because of you.. We must thank you for that..( Arjun pats his back)
Rudra: It’s my pleasure, bhaiya.. You don’t have to thank me..
Savitri: Arjun, call Karan and ask his whereabouts.. How long these people will take to finish Madhu’s check up??
Ranveer: (walks towards them) No need of that, daadi.. I called him just now and he said they are on the way..
The Oberois get furious looking at him but calm themselves.. Ranveer understood by their look that they don’t like him coming there.. But, he ignores their stares and sits beside Arjun..
Tia: Ranveer, is Ishu baby fine?? (The Raichands except Savitri glare at her while the Oberois look each other confusingly)
Savitri: What’s wrong with Ishu?? She is fine only right?? (Tia realised what she said and bit her tongue)
Ranveer: Daadi, Ishu baby is fine.. This Tia baby mistakenly says Ishu baby’s name instead of Madhu baby’s name.. Right, Tia baby?? (he purposely pressed the word baby)
Tia: Yes, Ranveer ba..
Dush: Baby???
All burst into laughter including the Oberois.. The Oberois are surprised to see this side of Ranveer.. Ranveer that they know was bitter, fierce, sullen and rude.. A man who never smiled before is making fun of someone.. Priyanka smiles looking at him.. Ranveer too looks at her and they both share a short eyelock..
Tia: (slightly embarrassed) No..no.. I mean to say bhaiya..
Dushyanth embraces Tia seeing her state.. Omkara get a call and he leaves the hall to attend the call.. Karan comes there with Ishana, Swetlana and Madhu.. Omkara stands at the right of the entrance speaking on mobile.. While walking inside, Ishana could feel her heart starts to beat faster.. Omkara too feels the same.. They turn to see each other but a person comes and block their view.. That person is none other than our Rudra..
Rudra: Hi, Miss Just Ishana.. I was waiting for you..
Ishu: Hi, Rudraa.. Rudraa Singh Oberoi.. (Both have a hand shake)
Rudra: Hi, Karan bhaiya, Madhu..(he looks at Swetlana) Hi..(Swetlana just nods her head)
Kalyani: Rudra, how long you are going to make them stand?? (Rudra scratches his head) Let them sit first..
Karan, Ishana, Swetlana and Madhu go and sit with them and involve in their talks.. After a while, Shivaay asks them to have their lunch.. They agrees and move to dining table.. Shivaay sees Omkara is missing and ask Rudra to go and bring Omkara.. Rudra get an idea..
Rudra: You all start first.. I want to show something to Ishana bhabhi..
Tej: You can show to her after lunch.. What is the hurry, now??
Rudra: Papa, I can’t wait till then.. Just for a while.. We will come in a while.. (drags Ishana with him)
Soumya: I think he wants to show his protein shake to her.. (all laugh hearing her)
Rudra is taking Ishana upstairs..
Ishana: Rudraa, where are you taking me??
Rudra: You will know in a while.. (stops a while)
Ishu: (confused) What??
Rudra: Wait a minute.. I’ll come in a while.. (he leaves Ishana and goes)
Ishana waits for Rudra but he doesn’t come.. She decides to search for him.. She looks for him while walking but couldn’t find him.. She enters a room and mesmerized seeing many beautiful paintings there.. She is completely lost in the paintings..
Voice: What are you doing here??
Ishana shocked to hear a sudden voice and stumbles.. She almost fall down but a hand holds her waist preventing her from falling.. Ishana holds the person’s shoulder tightly in scare.. Ishana looks at the person and he is none other than Omkara.. Both share an eyelock.. They could hear their hearts are beating loudly.. Rudra who was searching for Om and Ishana stunned looking at their position.. He smiles looking at them and decide to not to disturb them.. Ishkara break their eyelock but still stands in same position..
Ishu: I’m so sorry.. I don’t know this is your room.. I was searching for Rudraa.. He left me and went don’t know where..
Om: You don’t have to be sorry.. I’m the one must say sorry for scaring you.. Are you ok now??
Ishu: You don’t have too.. I was lost in the beauty of these paintings and don’t realise your presence..(Omkara smiles looking at her and both lost in their eyes again)
Rudra: Are you going to stand like this for whole day??
Ishkara look at Rudra.. They don’t understand what he is saying.. Rudra signed their standing position.. They realise their state and immediately take their hand from holding.. They felt awkward.. Rudra understands their awkwardness, so he decide to make them come out of it..
Rudra: Miss Just Ishana, I thought to take you here only but you come by yourself..
Ishu: I was waiting for you there but you didn’t come.. I thought of searching for you and finally landed in this room..
Om: Where you went leaving her?? She is our guest.. Is this the way to treat a guest??
Rudra: O, I went to take my mobile from my room.. I told her to wait there but she was not there when I went.. Sorry, Miss Just Ishana..
Om: You must not make a guest to wait, Rudra..
Ishu: It’s ok, Mr. Omkara.. Actually, it’s my fault too.. I should wait for him.. Now, leave it.. Our family will be waiting for us.. Let’s go..
Rudra: (shocked) How am I forgotten??
Ishkara: What??
Rudra: I came here because Shivaay bhaiya told me to call you for lunch but forgot to tell you.. (Ishana chuckles)
Om: Duffer, you can’t do a thing properly.. Come let’s go.. (3 of them leaves to the dining)
Precap: Ishkara feed Rudra.. The Oberois youngsters take the Raichands for a walk around the Oberoi Mansion.. All are getting know each other.. Priyanka hugs Madhu..
