Chapter 5

Bela arrives in the library and approaches them:

Bela: What are you doing?

Chadna: (pushes Param away) I.... Uhh, I was looking for the kitchen but obviously I got lost

Bela: (Looks at Param) and you let him into our library without saying anything?

Param: You.....

Chadna: (Think: oh no grumpy again, I'm definitely going to be in trouble, but why do these kinds of things only happen to me?)

Param: (puts his hands in his pockets) Who are you?

Chadna: (surprised) Huh?

Bela: (looks at Chadna) Why are you reacting so weird?

Chadna: (Think: Is he kidding me? He....he really doesn't recognize me?)

Bela: Dad is....

Chadna: I have to go! (She leaves quickly)

Bela: but what's wrong with this woman?

Param: Is it a new maid? (Sighs) told mother to send her away, I don't like servants touching my things and her.... She dared to come into my office!

Bela: (Thinks: oh dad confuses her with a servant HAHAHAHAHA it's really funny) Unfortunately you see dad she is not a servant!

Param: (confused) Who is she then?

Bela: you should go see grandma, she'll tell you everything, I have things to do! Bye daddy (she's leaving)

Param: What else is going on in this house?

Chadna arrives in the kitchen, her heart was beating faster than ever with the situation that had just occurred:

Chadna: (touches her chest) My God! How can I see this man again? (Think: I'm guessing he's a close relative or even a member....) Oh no, this isn't good for me

--- (a servant) Madam you....

Chadna: (turns around) Hello! (smiles) uhh aunt Anika made me come here to make some tea

--- oh okay, (she brings him all the ingredients) if you want I'll help you

Chadna: Don't worry!

Meanwhile, Aayan was walking through the halls of the house:

Aayan: (Think: What a beautiful house, hahahaha, it must be bigger than all my friends' houses!)

Alex (the dog) comes in his direction barking and Aayan falls to the ground....

Bela: (quickly comes to get the dog) Alex why did you run so fast? Ehhh you're that woman's son aren't you?

Aayan: (bleeds in knee) I hurt myself!

Bela: (doesn't care) don't tell me you're afraid of dogs? Hahahahahah you're so stupid

Aayan: well... I'm not afraid of dogs but he really surprised me, so I got scared

Bela: oh really? (smiles) let's go Alex let's leave this fool here (they leave)

Aayan: who is the fool? You.... (Bela was already gone) you're so mean...

Param: (come, see Aayan, Think: am I still in the same house? For....why are there strangers?)

He approaches Aayan,

Param: Boy, what are you doing here?

Aayan: (looks at him) can't you see it?

Param: (surprised) huh?

Aayan: I hurt myself because of that damn dog,

Param: (bends down) oh really? (Looks at his knee) It's not that bad why do you have to make such a big deal out of it?

Aayan: But I'm bleeding!

Para: so what? (Gets up) this little wound, guess what, it's not going to kill you but if you continue to be weak, well, this weakness will kill you (Aayan seems to understand) good... (Call a servant)

--- Yes sir

Param: who is this child?

--- it's ... it's the son of Madame's guest

Param: (Think: oh so it's the woman's son that mother chose for me?) Alright, take him to the others and tell mother I'm coming

--- okay sir, let's go my little one

Aayan: (stands up) Thank you sir! (They go away)

In the living room, Chadna arrives with the teas and serves everyone:

Chadna: (gives Teri a cup)

Teri: Sorry I don't drink tea!

Chadna: Really?

Anika: she doesn't like tea, and also remember that Rajiv doesn't like tea either for him and Teri is milk... But Bela likes tea a lot as well as Sudha

Chadna: (lost, sits down) Uhh how much are you in this house exactly?

Anika: (laughs) it looks like you're lost there!

Chadna: completely

Teri: (smiles) Grandma is not there any better at explaining, as you all know I have a twin sister Bela and we have our uncle Rajiv and our uncle's mother who is also our grandmother

Chadna, Gauri and Aksha look at each other....

Bela: (arrives) oieeeee don't be so surprised because when you have a lot of money you can afford two wives

Chadna: When you love one person you don't have to take another (Anika looks down) Oh sorry aunt I just wanted....

Anika: you don't hurt me and on the contrary I find that you are absolutely right

Aayan: (comes) Mom!

Gauri: where... where were you my little devil?

Chadna: are you okay?

Aayan: (hides his hurt) yes I'm fine, imagine there's even a big dog and I met this gentleman he's really nice

Chadna: a gentleman?

Aayan: (nods his head)

Anika: who are you talking about my boy?

Param arrives,

Aayan: it's him!!

Chadna: (looks at him) ....

Anika: my son is coming to sit you down

Param: (sits down)

Aksha: hello

Param: (small smile, to Anika) so you made me come....

Anika: don't act like you don't know the purpose of your presence, Son here is Chadna (he looks at Chadna) she is the woman I was telling you about

Chadna: (Surprised, Think: does that mean....I'm supposed to marry him? Oh no)

Param: is that her?

Chadna: What is it like? I don't match your criteria?

Param: (looks at her) not at all, I would even say that you are far from the women who attract me

Everyone is surprised....

Anika: HAHAHAHAHAHA it's....it's a joke, Uhh Param don't be so unpleasant and invite her to show him around the house

Param: from what I could see she doesn't need anyone to visit other people's houses

Chadna: (annoyed) You....

Aksha: (hold back Chadna's veil)

Anika: Come on! You, you argue like you've known each other for a long time, it's so beautiful isn't it?

Aksha: yes

Param: (rolls eyes)

Anika: Param, can you show him around the garden?

Param: (looks at Anika) Am I a gardener? (everyone looks at each other)

Anika: (small laugh) Uhh, Param do what I tell you for once in your life

Param: (stands up) okay

He advances,

Aksha: follow him!

Chadna: (turns her eyes) okay (she follows him)

Sudha and Rajiv go down talking when they see everyone in their living room...

Rajiv: (scratches his eyes) who...who are these villagers?

Sudha: Are we still at the same address?

Rajiv: (looks around) I think it's the same house but...who are they?

Bela: (comes) Oh are you awake?

Sudha: Little barbie who....who are these people? Are they relatives of your grandmother from the village?

Bela: (snaps her fingers) exactly, I was thinking the same thing but no,

Rajiv: so who are they?

Bela: one of them is supposed to be my father's future wife (Rajiv opens his mouth in astonishment) Oiee my uncle don't be so surprised because I myself was shocked how my father who is one of the most famous, handsome and rich businessmen in the city may want to marry a woman so ... so low level, you should have seen the sari she was wearing even that of the servants

Sudha: (laughs)

Rajiv: (laughs) I must say it's funny, finally the rich businessman Param Singhania is going to marry a village girl

Bela: how funny is that? (Goes away)

Rajiv: what does she have?

Sudha: aiee leave it, I think it's a good thing for us

Rajiv: what is it good for?

Sudha: It is certain that if Param marries a villager, this one will humiliate him every day, and we will laugh about it, right?

Rajiv: yeah.... let's enjoy this show

In the garden, Param and Chadna were walking, Chadna was looking at him from behind him, Param stops:

Chadna: (Think: why is he stopping? What does he mean now?)

Param: (turns) can we go now?

Chadna: What...what do you mean?

Param: Do you want me to introduce you to the herbs and flowers in this garden?

Chadna: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, (hits Param's arm) you're really funny

Param: (looks at Chadna's hand) Take your hand off!

Chadna: (quickly removes it) from....sorry uhh that was really funny

Param: (on a serious era) it wasn't a joke

Chadna: Oh really? (embarrassed smile) this....i was thinking the same thing (Param turns his eyes and was about to leave) why are you so rude to me? Looks like you got a grudge against me Did I do something to you?

Param: (stops)

Chadna: you always look mad

Param: (turns around, steps forward) Wait a minute, have we met before?

Chadna: (smile) wow and you're pretending not to know me besides us..... (Param really don't recognize her, Think: ohh he really forgot about me, good if he remembered me c I'm sure I'll be in big trouble) hmm no uh in the library you were so cold so....

Without her having time to finish speaking, Param left,

Chadna: But.... Wow he's really good at humiliating a person (sighs)

Later in the living room,

Anika: We have nothing to wait for, so Param what is your decision?

Aksha: yes it is still you concerned so we would like to know your opinions

Aayan: I would really like to have him as my dad

Param: (looks at Aayan with a surprised era)

Aayan: he is really wise so he will be my master!

Chadna: (smiles) The thing that scared me was that my son wouldn't accept it and if he had said no I would have said no too, so as he agrees I don't have any problems

Sudha: Oh she's a really nice girl! (Laugh)

Rajiv: Let's hear Param's decision

Anika: (a little scared) and....and you then Param? (He was going to speak) before that know well that....that she is a nice girl and....

Bela: and I don't agree with that, I can't introduce a....a village girl to my friends as my mother-in-law

Aayan: Do you think my mother wants to introduce such an insolent daughter to her relatives? (Bela is shocked) I may be short but you are cheeky

Rajiv: (pleased) my God at least one person who stands up to this insolent

Param: (smiles) I agree

Chadna: Are you sure? (Aksha moves Chadna) what? It's still weird

Param: (stands) I have to get out now! Ohhhh another thing mama for the wedding don't do nothing spectacular (leave)

Bela: He...is he serious? (Stands up) Dad!!!

Gauri: That's good news, isn't it? chadna you will finally remarried I'm happy for you

Chadna: (forced smile)

Bela: (furious, leaves)

Teri: I'm going to go talk to him excuse me (she leaves)

in Bela's room, She was crying...

Teri: little princess you know it's not pretty a crying princess

Bela: (wipes his tears) he...you saw that he decided to get married, now it's over for our dreams

Teri: (sits down) What dreams are you talking about?

Bela: because Mom will never be able to go back to Dad (in tears) I'm never going to find a normal family again.... I don't want Dad to marry this woman!

Teri: I understand (wipes her tears) but think about it, Mom is an old story in Dad's life whether we like it or not, it's impossible! And stop spoiling yourself... It's undesirable

on the way to boarding school,

Gauri: I'm so happy for you Chadna!

Chadna: (smiles, silent)

Aksha: I spoke with Mrs. Anika and we can organize the wedding at the boarding school

Chadna: Sister Aksha you do so much for me I don't want you to spend on me or lose....

Aksha: what are you talking about? (Smiles) you're like a little sister to me Of course I'll be happy to organize your wedding

Chadna: (smiles)

Gauri: Chadna are you sure you want to get married just for Aayan? I mean Param is still very handsome, I noticed he had abs and his arms... Hmm oh my God

Chadna: (surprised) Gauri! What are you talking about ?

Gauri: can't I fantasize about such a man?

Aksha: (shakes her head)

Chadna: he may be handsome but he's...he's a real jerk

Aksha: what are you talking about?

Chadna: Aksha didn't you notice that he was trying at all costs to humiliate me? But who does he think he is? Just because he got money he thinks he's king of the world

Gauri: Well, then why did you say yes?

Chadna: because my son likes it! I could sacrifice my life just for my son! (strokes Aayan's head) he's everything to me

During this time

Param arrives at the company:

Param: (to Rohan) What's new? (Rohan smiled at him) did you go crazy by chance?

Rohan: no sir congratulations!

Param: Congratulations?

Rohan: ah sir, don't be so embarrassed, (he said to him smiling) it's normal for a man to get married one day, for sure we were wondering when you were going to do it better later than ever and.... (Param looks at him with a serious era then he collects himself) it's....it's your brother, he's handing out cakes to everyone saying that you're going get married soon

Param: That fool!

Param walks towards where Rajiv was....

Param: what are you doing here?

Rajiv: (turns) oh Bro (gives him a cake) here it's for you

Param: (takes his phone) Security!!

Rajiv: (surprised) HAHAHA you..you're not going to kick me out of my father's business are you?

Param: when you want to work come with pleasure but if it's for fun go away (security arrives) bring this gentleman outside

Rajiv: Param you.... (He leaves) asshole!!

He is brought outside...

Rajiv: Shame on me (takes his phone and looks at himself) How can he chase such a handsome man like me?

He sees a girl pass in front of him,

Rajiv: (looks at the girl's behind) Ohh she's hot!

Suddenly someone touches his behind (buttocks) he turns and sees Leyla

Rajiv: (remembers her, Think: that crazy girl!)

Leyla: hello handsome
