"Lekin...?" Saraswati repeated after her, unsure.
"Humare saamne natak karne ki zarurat nehi hain Saru Bahu, hum aapke iraade se rag rag waakif hain. Aapko bhale hi yeh nehi pata tha ki Durga ji apni saal giraah kyun nehi manati hain, lekin aaj ke din hum jo unki saal giraah manaye, aapko laga tha usse Uncle aur Durga ji gussa ho jayenge... Aapko humse takleef hain samajh aata hain, par isse baakiyon ko thes kyun pahuchana chahti thi aap?" Guddan asked.
"Agar aapko sab kuch pata hi tha, toh meri idea mein haami hi kyun bhari aapne?"
"Aapke aur humare iraadon mein bahot fark hain Saru Bahu. Aap humare jhallepan ka faida uthana chahti thi aur hum badlav lana chahte the. Ainda aise harkate mat kariyega Saru Bahu." Guddan warned, retreating away.
"Kuch dinon mein bahot zyaada hi lagav ho chuki hain inhe is ghar se. Is dhamki ka hisab barabar toh main zaroor karungi. Bahot ho gaye chote mote khel, ab aisa vaar karungi ki is Guddan ki khushi hi chin jayegi!" Saraswati hissed, clenching her fists.

"Arey bhai, samaan sab niche kyun le ja rahi hain tu Guddan?" Dadi enquired, anxious.
"Kyunki hum upar wale kamre mein ab nehi rahenge!" Guddan shrugged off.
"Lekin kyun? Lalla ne tujhe kuch bola? Ruk main abhi usse baat karti hoon! Lalla, Lalla!!" Dadi called out.
"Arey arey Dadi, unhone kuch nehi kaha.. Hum dono hi guest room mein samaan lekar shift ho rahe hain, upar wala room colour karwa rahe haina hum, isliye.." Guddan elaborated.
"Aur Lalla maan gaya?! Kaise?" Dadi exclaimed, stupefied.
"Kya huya maa, kyun bula rahi thi?" Akshat asked, descending down the stairs.
"Tu maan gaya kamre ka rang badalne ke liye?" Dadi asked, gaping at him.
"Haan, aapki gudiya ko kale deewaron wala kamra pasand nehi hain, woh paani mein kud jayegi, haina Guddan?" Akshat sulked, raising his brows at her.
"Aap us ek hi baat ko pakarke kyun baithe hain? Hum bata rahe hain, sach mein paani mein kud jayenge hum!" Guddan narrowed her eyes.
"Tu thik haina Lalla?" Dadi asked, placing her hand on his forehead to check for any possible rise in temperature.
"Haan thik hoon main!" He exclaimed in irritation.
"Maine jab kahi thi, tab toh kabhi nehi mana tune.." Dadi mocked, suppressing her smile.
"Haan kyunki agar main nehi mana, toh aapki gudiya paani mein kudke mujhe zimmedar thehrayegi! Inhe toh tairna bhi nehi aata hoga!" Akshat stated as a matter of fact.
"Aap har baat pe hume villain kyun banate hain jabki waise harkatein toh aap khud karte hain!" Guddan retorted.
"Tumhara matlab main villain hoon?!" He shooted her a death glare.
"Arey bhai shanti shanti! Jab dekho ladna chalu kar dete ho tum dono! Saari galati meri hain jo maine tujhse puch liya!" Dadi interrupted, criticising herself.
"Aisa kuch nehi hain maa.." Akshat trailed.
It's all because of this girl's weird tantrums!
Same to you Uncleee!
Their eyes were cooking some silent accusations, while Dadi tiptoed away, leaving them to their devices.

"Humara sofa kaha hain?" Guddan frowned, poking his shoulder.
"Tumne khud hi toh uska material badalne ke liye bheja hain, mulayam sofe pe sona tha na tumhe, ab bhugto!" He replied coolly, wrapping himself with the warm blanket.
