The fine unwelcoming place of mine was radient , he sat on the couch placed in the center of living room ,I stood by the open door watching him, he turned to me and smiled 'are you going to just stand there and watch me the whole day? ',regaining my senses i can back to the world from my thudding thoughts. 'You need to complete whatever work you're left with as soon as possible they would be waiting for us ',he added 'fine , I thought of asking you ,would you like to have something? but all those formalities could to be left for later times right'. saying this i went upstairs took my bag and came down "shall we go?" with my inquring eyes for his approval of my look ,he passed a sweet smirk 'beautiful, professor' replying to the question underlying .
We arrived at his parents place , I have been to his house which was on a admirable property by the wallflower park , a affable get away from city rush , was invited there for a few events , even meet some of his friends. But this was the first time i was going to meet his family members ,I was as blank as a white sheet in a new pack of paper .on the way he told me about his kith and kin they where a family of five members with his father ,mother, younger brother and sister, he was eldest son of the family well i was relieved by that news , atleast he could understand elder sibling stuff easily . His father was a calm ,composed man much satisfied by whatever he had achieved in his life , the mother was quite opposite well that's how the things are balanced in this world . we entered the front ward , it was bordered by hedge plants , rose bed aligned towards the interior with garage at left corner touching the hedges , multiple small cemented reactangular tiles paved the way from enterance to front door . lush green stretch of grass covered the frontward continuing to sides macamadizing the way to backward . the door was opened by a young lady she was her sister may be ,we where greeted with a florescent smile she had the same good looks as her brother may be it was in their genes ."this is blossom , my sister and blossom meet Soma '.Ken introduced us 'oh, so she is the one you have been talking about, welcome dear ,please come in '.
we made our way in through the cream hued door with contemporary and old english touch, who so ever got that here had a very fine taste in furniture and furnishing ;well as we stepped in i witnessed this world with all those cheerful voices of children and parents sitting together chatting on a common topic after a long time ,i was taken in as soon as i entered. his father was an old gentleman,Mr.Milan Siri with solitude spread across his old grey face , he took the task of introducing me to other family members form Blossom , everyone seemed to be delighted to have me with them both the children as well as adults.his siblings were married prior to him and even had kids , it seemed like all that was normal in their household . Blossom took me to the kitchen after a little while ,as Ken was absorbed by the questions put forth by his brother and brother-in-law , kids hanging over his shoulders to listen to his answers ."this is Soma ,Ken's love interest ma ',with a playful smirk ,Blossom acquinted me to her mother . I couldn't make out whether she was teasing me or her mom ,she was an adorable cute lady in her 60s i guess . Ken had recieved those bright eyes from his mother , she was a mexican american women Mrs.Elena Siri,she was not very pleased to meet me ,the firm denial was so obvious in her gleaming eyes though she din't show it in her words 'you shouldn't have brought her here ,I was about to come out with this freshly baked apple pie '.as Mrs.Elena held a pie with prefect golden crust in her hands it smelled what it was so, temptingly delicious for a second that fragrant delicacy of her made her dismay slip my memory.'come along dear ,brunch is set up in the backward', she invited me in her polished tone ,as she called for everyone 'pie is ready'.Kids strided up like little ducklings trailing behind the mother with tiny feet of their's.
back garden was a relieving setup with a small pond acompanied by a delicate water fountain in one corner surrounded by white peebles fixed in a confining manner ,winters din't allow the planted shrubs to reveal what kind of flowers they bore during seasons , as I reasonded out the stretching grass form frontward , it did continue here.I was inspecting the details when i got a call form Shelby, Ken's brother to join the feast. A maple colored table laid in the centre was brimming with different dishes moreover was embellished with pretty azure vase holding 3 to 4 lilies ,as the weather today was a little warmer than other days so ,it would have be decided to enjoy the meal dousing in sunshine.
everyone one sat around the table comfortably on benches laid out every person served other it was really an enjoyable affair . Most of the matters were discussed here between Mr and Mrs.Siri, they had their own way of interacting no one could make out what they were reflecting upon .I was more inquired by Shelby and Blossom they had alot to be quenched . All of a sudden Mrs.Siri asked me 'what do you think about family Soma?' i was stuck frozen i never saw that kind of question coming , everybody was still and gazed at me like they were expecting something that they could appreciate. After pondering in my thoughts i collected few words to speak 'In my opinion family means to stick together no matter what happens you are there for them and they are for you, ma'am .' I could have given a length long lecture but stopped with few simple concise words ,'even when you know that what is been done by them is not right?',before I could pat myself for the answer i gave another question was arrowed at me by Mrs.Siri .'that is what family means ,to not abandon anyone even when they are not right , it's our responsibility to help them see through each situation ' , 'and what if they don't pay any heed to your words ' i was countered by Mrs.Siri quick remark.'then they should be left to learn their lesson ,however it would be better to stay along side ' i was done with my part , i tried to play as smart as i could to not rile anyone .'do you owe that? ' Mrs.Siri eyed me with like suspicion as if she was trying to see across my soul which got me quite nervous moreover it was now getting on my nerves 'Enough of your inquiries ma don't scare her' a resolved manly voice interrupted Mrs.Siri's intricate set of commotion ,it was Blossom's spouse Mr.Aarav 'You are making her nervous ' he added . Everyone bursted into laughter ,I was stunned by whatever was happening . Everything was back to normal we talked a little more .
it was half past three when i decided to leave for my best .All members came to front gate to bid there farewell to me ,the only thing that still ringed in my ears was the reticent disapproval of Ken's mother.
