Chapter 6 - Ajit Kumar

As Renuka and Nitin entered the drawing room of the manor they saw the light was completely off, seeing that lights were off Renuka asked Nitin to switched on the light.

Hearing Aunt asking him to switch on the light of the room. Nitin went from the door to the other side carefully and switched on the lights.

As Nitin switched on the lights he saw his Nana sitting on the sofa with eyes closed and head leaning backwards.

The person on the sofa looks to be in his fifties due to him maintaining the health with the mix of the white and black hair with white the majoring and if he stood up you can see that his height around 178 cm making him towering with his sharp gaze which had been formed due serving his long years in military.

Ajit Kumar was famed for his military exploits in 1990 war with country X during which he blockaded a lakh of the soldiers of country X with only third of his amount using the guerrilla warfare tactic in the northern eastern part of the country I where the area is mostly fores-trial area which helped in the changing the tide of the war in Country I side. Other than that he also made military tactics for the war and other things which crowned him the Field Marshal in the military in 1992.

He worked for military for till 2004 and even now many big officers come to our house for the advice related to military and other things. And the most important thing he still keeps exercising at same level at military exercise and always pulls me in the morning to do that so you can guess my physique huh ?

Ajit opened his eyes tiredly and start blinking his eyes to adjust to the sudden light and looked around the house to see who had came and switched on the light . As he was scanning his house he saw both his daughter-in-law and grandson, one starting at the door and other near the switch board.

Seeing his grandson he said " Your mother called me. "

Hearing his Nana talking about that Nitin replied " Me to!! I want to talk you about this. "

" Let your Uncle come home first then we will talk if he his late then we can talk tomorrow too, its Sunday "

Hearing Nana mentioning about Uncle and the problem he was facing he thought he will be of more help then Nana so Nitin replied " OK it will be better this way And what about Nani"

" I hadn't shared with her , I think it will be better for you talk to her. "

" Why "

" Swamiji did you forget how your Nani becomes Jhasi ki Rani (1) when the matter is related to you. "

" Isn't it your problem Nana ? It will be better this way, Why are you dragging me into the quagmire to be taken advantage of by Nani ? "

" Come on Swamiji, She will go easier on you rather then me talking about that. My old bones wouldn't me able to handle this type mistreatment by her"

Seeing both grandfather and grandson talking to each other in such short sentences and ignoring her, Renuka snorted loudly and said " Are you taking me as air or what, something talking like this and more importantly papaji where are the servants and mummyji and my both daughters, and why had you made the home so dark and menacing and not a single light is turned on in the whole house ."

Hearing his daughter-in-law brisk fast sentences that bombarded on him for ignoring her and the intimidation look on her face. [Saying give me a proper reason or you are dead ]

He sighed and said " After I talked with his mother i need a silent environment to sort some of the things out so I send the servants back to their living quarters and your mummyji and two daughters out for a spin around the town with both the kids as they were feeling bored by always remaining inside the house after the exams and not allowed to take spin in the city, They will be back in while "

" Awwwww the snacks I bought will get cold till the time they will be back " replied Renuka while sighing.

Seeing that both were back to their daily quibbling Nitin ignored both of them and said " I will be going back to my room! call me back when the time is for dinner "

Seeing him taking his leave towards his room Renuka asked " What about the snacks ? "

Thinking about how her Mami always prioritize about him in all the day to day necessities , Nitin felt bad about refusing her so he only replied " Call me when two chipkali will be back I will be there to accompany them at that time. "

Hearing his answer and as she thought it was better then his uncooperative self so she doesn't mind much and replied " Sure I will ask them to call you for the snack time if they came at snacks time. "
