To Be or Not To Be A Family
The night after that was a different one. Everyone was talking and laughing except Ashma. The only thing resonating in her ears was the things Young-Jae said to her that he wanted her out of his house as soon as possible. Even though she was glad that he helped his mother she was furious that he didn't do it because of his soft heart rather he had a motive.
The whole night Young-Jae spend in his room. He loved spending time with his family but not today as he knew a few more people would be sitting downstairs and he didn't want to face them. He even had his dinner in his room. It was a new thing for him not to spend time with his family so he was feeling uneasy but his ego stopped him from going downstairs. He was changing his routine for someone else which was unlike him. He always won no matter what but now he was losing at every turn.
Everyone was happy that Vidhi was fine and resting well. She even told everyone what Young-Jae did for her. Everyone was shocked except the people who already knew. He didn't like her yet he called a doctor for her which he rarely did. No one could understand the motive behind such a good deed but Ashma knew.
"He did that?" asked Young-Soo.
"Yes," replied Vidhi with a big smile on her face.
"That's surprising," said Jong-Woo.
"Yeah, but we all know he has a golden heart," said Hei-Ran.
"Yeah, he can't look at someone in pain," said Hae-Won.
"Yeah, right," murmured Ashma.
Yong-Sun kept staring at her. He knew something was bothering her. Everyone was smiling and laughing and talking but she kept looking down and said nothing. She never got involved in any of the conversations.
One person among all was glad in particular. She was so angry at Young-Jae for he asked Ashma to leave. She said that she won't talk to him for a day and she didn't since morning but now she wanted to go run to him and hug him and kiss him.
She excused herself and ran upstairs with a huge smile on her face.
She knocked at the door and asked sweetly, "Harabuhji!"
"Come in, Sonnyuh," replied Young-Jae adoringly.
She threw herself at him. "Thank you, thank you, thank you," she showered him with kisses.
"Ha-ha, for what?" he hugged her tightly. He was glad that his heart forgave him.
"For accepting them," she said.
Young-Jae's face turned sad. "Sorry, Sonnyuh but I didn't accept them."
"But you helped them," said Bong-Cha sweetly.
"Yeah, that's all I did."
"That is enough for me. I love you." She wrapped her hand around his neck and kissed his forehead.
"I love you too." He pulled her in for a tight hug. It was the only piece of good news he received since morning that his granddaughter forgave him and came to talk to him. All his tension and sadness flew away.
While downstairs everyone started leaving slowly after saying their goodbyes. Everyone had a hearty meal and was happy but not Ashma. All she could think was how much she hated that bully, Young-Jae. Yong-Sun wanted to talk to her, wanted to find out what was bugging her but stopped himself as he was surrounded by so many people.
The whole night she lay awake next to her mother not trying to move at all as it would have disturbed her mother. And she needed her sleep. She couldn't even toss and turn to ease her mind. She thought of going again to the terrace but was afraid that Young-Soo might arrive again and she was in no mood of a civil conversation.
The night went by and the morning arrived. The ray of sunlight came directly on her face. She groaned and woke up. She stretched and rubbed her neck to ease her tiredness.
"Are you okay?" asked Vidhi.
"Me? Are you okay? How are you doing now?" inquired Ashma.
"I am fine," replied Vidhi.
"Good."
She went to the bathroom and followed her routine. She took out her phone and sat on the toilet seat. She replied to the important emails and then moved to brush her teeth. She was reading a mail from Priyanka and screamed," what?" The spit from her mouth flew all over the bathroom mirror.
"What happened, Ashu?" Vidhi came running after hearing her scream.
Ashma spat the toothpaste out, rinsed her mouth and yelled, "that son of a bitch!"
"Ashu!" scolded Vidhi.
"What mom?" snapped Ashma. Vidhi understood that 'Chief Ashma' took over her daughter and someone at her office made a huge mistake.
"Who are you cursing?" asked Vidhi calmly.
"Rishabh, who else?" shouted Ashma. Her eyes turned red with rage. She kept her fist clenched tightly. It seemed that her phone would crack if she would apply a little bit more pressure.
"What happened?" Eun-Kyung came running after hearing all the screaming. Vidhi signalled her not to say another word.
"What did he do now?" asked Vidhi.
"Let me find out in detail," she gritted her teeth and dialled a number on her phone.
Her phone lit up with called id 'Priyanka'. The phone rang completely but Priyanka didn't pick up her phone. This made her anger climb up a notch. She was running out of patience, she again called up Priyanka, this time she picked up
Before Priyanka could say hello, Ashma shouted, "what the hell happened?"
"Don't test my patience, Priyanka," screamed Ashma. Eun-Kyung stared at Vidhi. She gestured her to leave her alone and they both went outside leaving Ashma alone in the room.
"What happened?" asked Eun-Kyung with concern.
"Some problem with her work," said Vidhi.
"Why was she cursing in the morning?" asked Bong-Cha while rubbing her eyes.
"What did harabuhji do now?" Baek-Hyung too came out of his room.
"Nothing he did nothing," said Eun-Kyung.
"Then who is she shouting at?" inquired Baek-Hyung.
"Some problem with her work, nothing to worry about," answered Vidhi, again.
"Will she have to go back?" questioned Eun-Kyung.
"What?" her question jolted Bong-Cha out of her slumber. "No," she shouted. She didn't want her sister to go back soon. She knew if she went back she might not return no matter what Bong-Cha would say. She can't use any more excuses as she turned into 'the boy who cried wolf'.
"No idea."
"Wait! Baek-Hyun, why did you assume she was shouting at your grandfather?" inquired Vidhi.
"Because they always fight," answered Baek-Hyun.
"What do you mean?" asked Vidhi.
"They fought just yesterday morning," stated Baek-Hyun.
"What?" exclaimed Vidhi.
"And God knows what they talked about in the evening," said Bong-Cha.
"Vidhi! it's best not to come in between grandfather and granddaughter. I think it's beneficial for them to interact. How they interact must not matter to us," explained Eun-Kyung.
"Well, you are not wrong."
Meanwhile in the guest bedroom,
"The thing is, there is the new album launch of a K-pop Idol in Korea, they called up our office for a dress and Rishabh without consulting with anyone, sent a dress from our spring fashion show to them," explained Priyanka.
"That asshole, what was he thinking? Who gave him the permission?" shouted Ashma.
"No one," said Priyanka, shivering with fear.
"I warned you to keep an eye on him. What were you doing?"
Priyanka knew Ashma was right. She did warn her about him. "I am sorry," was all she could say.
"Sorry? What am I going to do with your sorry? Don't be sorry. Give me the address of the venue of the album launch, now," yelled Ashma.
"What are you going to do?"
"Get my dress back myself," shouted Ashma.
"What? How?" Priyanka was shocked.
"I am in Korea, Priyanka, how else, use your brain," she was getting angrier and angrier. She was already angry, tired and cranky from last night and this fiasco made her crankier.
"I am really sorry," sobbed Priyanka.
"I told you if he tries to act over smart, give me a call. Why the hell did you send me an email and didn't call me, when it was such an urgent matter?" Ashma tried to talk calmly after hearing Priyanka cry over the phone. She didn't want to scold her as it was all Rishabh's fault but she did put her in charge.
"Because I have been calling our Korean partners for the past two days but could not get a hold of them. I thought that was more important," justified Priyanka.
"And telling me was not important," Ashma started shouting again but controlled herself and said in a mild tone.
"I am really sorry, I was not thinking through," Priyanka apologised and apologised.
"Just send me the address and tell that asshole to call me right now," snapped Ashma as she was tired of sorrys.
"I am sorry, Ashma."
"Priyanka! The address!" nipped Ashma.
"Yes, yes, right away," said Priyanka.
