Chapter 8 - Chapter 8th (The mystery of pinia)

"Mummy ji?! " the plate as big as a spook tire of a pre-teen cycle, fell crashing on the marbleized floor of this enormously big mansion with a deafening voice, and the round grey ladoa lavished with ghee, khoya, dry fruits, and black pepper called Pinia (a sweet dish native to northern India) rolled out scattering off on the reflecting bottom beneath the feet creating a perpetuated environment within all the family member who was dressed in thick lustrous attire, and there faces draped into 'What just happened?! ' expression,

"There's rat poison in pinia! "

"Who put poison in pinna?" the plus-sized lady in a hot pink sparkling saree that is blinding with all that light that falls into the eyes, irritating the eye muscles reflecting through her extravagant environment

"No, the Ladao was dropped in the bane"!

I seriously can't bear it ANY LONGER!

this poisonous pinia!

such a bust of adrenaline flooded my whole body that I jumped from my seat which was settled between this whole never-so-new household, the household Chachu and Chachi. Dadi stood lying on the bed.

"Where are you going, guddu?" chachi questioned with a short blink from the intense mystery she was eagerly involved in., nevertheless, the sudden furlough yanked all the enthusiastic catfishes out of the pond, leaving them agonizing, and agitated!

But, 'I'm sorry... Cause I'm going to lose my wits to this pinai and poison! And I can't afford much right now! ' but I can't give such an answer to such chill eyes towards such dedicated fans of 'daily soaps' and neither could I breathe life when my soul is declaring to commit suicide if such a ridiculous mystery conditioned (ps. No hard feelings, Ekta Kapoor)

"I am... I am going to call Mom." with my final answer, I gusted out grabbing my phone without meeting those narrowed questionable eyes but like I even care!

I proceed upstairs through those cemented staircases situated from outside of the house's core, leading to a limited number of stars that are shattered but were somehow twinkling like diamonds above, through that metallic door upstairs calling out for me... Not majestically but still was enough! At least I'm getting fresh air, that's the only silver line for me...

****

The gist of all the smoke which was looming down over the city from the heaven above,

I, the mystery in that ordinary sky rambled anxiously from the corner of the balcony to the other end where a metallic gate marking the existence of a secondary household,

The household which was... The only lively household on this mere piece of land, the household which was forsaken today... Like it was before... Before... Everything was quite alright.

"Beep beep...hello? "

"Hi, beautiful" the rasping voice of that male from the other side of the call, declared in a very ardent and flirtatious tone.

The same tone, influenced me to smile mindlessly even when I wasn't in a mood somehow, as I scoffed dropping off my voice to whisper, avoiding being the first breaking news of the 'gossip group' "...*scoff* aren't you a dog's tail?! Never straightening! Huh?! "

However, as the dash went on,

"Ouch, Dog? Well, it's alright, as the classic poet would say 'Love will make you dead'. I'm better than that mark at least--"

"Stop it, dash! " suddenly, hearing this much I cried growing profoundly serious, "Just stop it!! "

"Ah... Okay..." he took a lump down with the step of his words which were now drowned in perplexity, however... Everything grew silent and only a deep swirling of wind whistled, as if the dead of night had bestowed over us hushed and affluent in twilight and the limited stars gazed down at me with that sinister starlight plunging onto me, as if I was the main lead performing on the stage.

'love will surely make you dead, isn't that right, guddu?'

"Poison in pinna" the surroundings echoed as I stood still in the chilling night gazing at the stars above as the dark clouds swept their existence...

'but they are all here like me, guddu, and no one's gone forever...even the poison has its limitations '

But the question was- was there any, any limitation to anything that the decided fate?!
