Chapter 5 - 5. Sisters

The ladies enter the room.

Mother was tidying up the clothes while sitting on the bed.

Suru open the almirah to take out her casual clothes to change back to it.

'Mom...' little sister jumped on the bed and grabbed mother's hand.

' The boy didn't turn up... What does that mean?' she asked mother her voice showing her anger.

'Shh... Speak softly' her mother Indicates her widening her eyes.

' your father will overhear you 'she looked at the door to check whether the father is near or not.

'Does this mean my marriage to Vijay has been postponed again' she said with utter disappointment in her eyes and anger as suru fixed her suit standing in front of the mirror.

Standing in front of the mirror suru wore her glasses as the sunlight shone on her face. She stared at the figure in the mirror trying her best to ignore the conversation that was going behind her to prevent herself from more sadness.

' Look, kavita I have told you a thousand times' mother holds kavita's arm while explaining her.

'Suru is elder to you. She will get married first. You can't get married until then. Why don't you understand' mother explained her as suru pick up her hand bag and started moving towards the door.

'Don't argue with me on this again and again' mother warned her in a soft voice while pointing her finger towards Kavita.

Kavita was disappointed and sadness welled in her eyes and her nose turn red.

Kavita stood up and turn towards suru 'Why don't you search for a boy yourself?' she shouted stopping suru from exiting the room with her voice full of anger as tears welled up in her eyes.

'There's a difference between searching for someone and finding someone' suru counter kavita hiding her own sadness.

'It's not that I don't have crushes but if that person doesn't reciprocate then what can I do about it?' Suru said as kavita wiped her tears standing in front of her.

'I'll have to depend on my family to find a suitable boy and settle me down' suru reasoned with kavita.

'tch' suru turn back and got out of the room hiding her sadness.

Suru leave through the front door with her father towards the lift. Father pressed the button to call the lift and they waited but there was no response from the lift. The lift was not coming up.

'This lift too... Waste of time' Father was irritated.

'Come, suru' he said while turning back towards the stairs. He climbed down the stairs with suru following behind him.

As they were about to reach the floor below, father stopped few steps before the staircase ends and was stunned and anger filled his eyes.

'What's going on here...'
