😎..Hi friends😊. This is the first part i'm updating.😃 ...
the part in italics was flashback. and i've given the conversation of parents in Hindi itself as i felt that would suit them the most.😃... moreover i cant imagine Gayathri speaking in english...😆😉...
Part 1(A):
"OMG we are already hr late", shouted somebody loudly ,which woke her up from sleep. She slided over to the other side and peeped down, it was very calm now. She tried to make out the time(of the day)seeing through the window, but could not as the windows were covered with curtains. She was then back to her senses that she had a lavish watch on her hand and could indeed have a look on it instead of this perception. It showed 5:30, she then got relaxed and moved back to her position thinking she had 2 more hours to pack up.
She was on the left upper birth of a 1st AC coach of a train heading towards Mumbai. The train was to reach there by 7:00 AM. It was hr late late as somebody said, so she simply added to make it 2 hrs more to sleep. She immediately fell asleep.
She woke up as her mobile rang, looked at her watch and wondered how fast two hours have passed. She answered the call saying "Good Morning Mom".
Mom: Aarti where are you? Reached Mumbai? Got down? Found Him?
A: Maa wait!! Let me speak too'
M: okay, go on.
A: Hmm, we didn't reach mom, it takes another hr may be'(said she trying to get down.)
M: What! 1 hr late??? Exclaimed her mom, as if she just saw a Big Black Cobra near her foot.
Aarti laughed at her mom's expression.
Then her dad took the receiver and said, "I have insisted you to the the flight but you didn't, it will be very irritating and boring in the train"
A: no dad, it's a lot of fun travelling in a train, I'm really enjoying'.and got confused finding uncle staring at her ' but she understood that is bcoz she called this 'late' journey to be fun.
D: Fine then, enjoy' but let me know as you reach.
A: sure dad, bye.
It's 7:30,the train is very slow, she got seated beside the window,and smiled at everybody. aunty and didi were discussing about a designer who spoiled the dulhan's joda in a shaadi they were returning from. She neither found it worth, nor interesting for her to get involved in their discussion. It felt boring and dragging. Aarti then thought "May be dad was right".
Aarti then turned to see uncle Chandulal walking to and fro restlessly,cursing the railway system. She was sure he has been doing the same since 5:30 AM' he looks so comical while doing so with a frusted face'..then with a slight smile on her lips, she murmured "May be I was right".
...
"Newspaper'.., chai''.., samosa''.., coffee''', kripaya dhyan dijiye'''''" people were shouting without any gap.
" it's 7:45, the train should be here by 7:00 AM" said yash settling on a bench on PF-3 where the train is expected on, "if it had been, we would have reached home by now. Huh, nothing is going 'perfect' with these trains nowadays"'. Saying so' he waited for the train as he had no other choice.
...
" Hello Scindhia Ji , namasthey? How are you, how is gayathri ji?"
S: hello, Choudhary ji, Kaise hai aap? Aur shobha ji?
C: Ji hum theek hai! Hume aapki madath chahiye suraj ji! (yeah we r fine, we need your help)
S: ji zaroor, kahiye' (oh sure, tell me)
C: hamari beti aarti keliye' (for my daughter Aarti)
S: acha ji theek hain, zaroor..hum sab hai na yahaan pe, hum khayal rakhenge. .. Ji namasthey. (ohk fine, sure, not to worry, we'll take care, bye)
Suraj pratap scindhia, had a pleasant smile on his face thinking of the conversation.
Gayathri who heard all the phone conversation asked him " kaun hai Ji?" ( who is it?)
S: Choudhary Ji ka phone hai, unki eti aarti ke bare mein baath karne keliye phone kiya tha.!! (it's chowdhary ji,he called to talk about his daughter Aarti)
G3: Aarti..!! (exclaimed she, recollecting when she first met her in a shaadi, that previous year. She liked her at her first sight itself, she was very fond of her lively nature, she immediately thought of yash that day, but'..) "Gayathri?"' said Suraj Pratap'finding her lost'
G3: Ji boliye. (ya tell me.)
S: Aarti ko Mumbai college mein MS ka seat mila, who yahaan aayegi 2 years keliye, choudhary Ji ne hame in 2yrs ko uski khayal rakhne keliye request karne phone kiya tha. (Aarti got a sat in mumbai college, she'll stay here for 2 years, C ji is requesting us to take care of Aarti for the 2 yrs)
G3: Zaroor ji, request karne ki kya zaroorath hain, hamara farz bhi tho bantha hai na..hamari family friends jo hain, aur waise bhi bahuth achi, samajdar ladki hain Aarti. (oh sure, what's need for him to request us, we are family friends afterall, and also aarti is a very understanding and nice girl)
S: ha ye baath tho hain. Woh barso din aayegi Mumbai, hume usse receive karna hain. (yep you are rite, she'll come day after, we gotta receive her)
G3: Yash ko hi saup dijiye ga ye kaam (let Yash to do it). Suraj frowned a little.
G3: mathlab, Yash tho theek se karega aur kuch bhi nahi kahega. (i mean, he does it rite)
S: okay.
Gayathri felt very relieved and excited as she felt something good would happen with Aarti's Mumbai trip.
