Bua (fun posts) & Aayu (Page 23) - Page 7

Bua is sitting at the dining table alone as the rest of the family is away.  Ram Dulare comes by and places blackened burnt rotis, over cooked rice, under cooked dhal, soggy vegetable just taken of the freezer, and a salad bowl containing whole (uncut) onions and cucumbers.

Bua:  What is this for?

Ram Dulare: I found a piece of paper sticking out of your purse with the name Maan Singh Khurana written on it.

Bua:  Oh come on darling!  You remember last week when I attended that big temple event?  Well one of the ladies attending the function informed that a new grocery store called Mann Singh Kirana (grocery) is opening next month in Indore.  I wrote it down as a reminder to go there when I visit Indore - some how I wrote Khurana for Kirana.

Ram Dulare shrugs his shoulders and walks away.

Three days later, Bua is watching TV.   Ram Dulare walks in with her afternoon cuppa and snacks.

Bua watches incredulously as Ram Dulare places a cup of water and a plate of stale samosas in front of her.

Bua:  What was that for?

Ram Dulare:  The not-yet opened Kirana (grocery) store in Indore called.

Bua and Aarti went to the store together to buy Valentine's day cards. 

When they got to the store, they looked at several cards.

Finally, Aarti liked one and decided to purchase it for Yash.  She asked Bua if she had decided on one for Ram Dulare.

Bua nodded 'yes' to Aarti,  picked a card that said "I love you only" and asked the store guy:  "Do you carry multi-packs of this card?  I need quite a few to send"
