Broken Hearts, hima [books for 10th graders txt] 📗

house and briskly walked away into the home leaving me wide eyed. There should be something that I can do.

I stomped away into my room ignoring granma calling me... I'm fuming with anger when she came in with a worried look.

"Is everything okay, did Raj say something?" I put on a smile.

"I'm jut tired..." I said with a weak smile.

"Clean up and come down, I'll get you something to eat." she said caressing my cheek.

I gulped down the orange juice and slumped onto the couch next to her. "Nina..." Granma said massaging my head gently as I lay on her laps.

I sat up looking at her with curious eyes. " I have looked after this house for many years and I'm tired of all the responisibilities so..."she said pulling out the bunch of keys and placing them in my hand with a gentle squeeeze and smile.

"Granny... I don't know. I mean..."She cut me off.

"I know you'll do well just like Raj did with the office when I gave him it's responsibility." she winked touching my cheeks.

"But... I don't belong here." I replied meekly.

"Don't say that darling, You're grandfather wrote 40% of our shares on your name... you're our only grand daughter." She said as tears strolled along her wrinkled cheeks.

I nodded and relaxed into her laps once again, I wasn't ready for this, I'm just accepting that I had a family and now all off a sudden. I shot up as something struck my mind.

"Does that mean I make the rules at home?" I asked. She nodded with a smile.

"Mr. K...It's time for revenge." I nodded.

I ordered the cook what he should prepare for the dinner, I wanted it to be light without any masala food since granma was ordered by doctor not to eat it.

I called hari the house worker to call everyone for dinner while I set food on the table. Dev waved a hello and granma gave an appreciative wink, I was setting the plates when Mr. K walked in talking on the phone... A small smile grew on my lips, move1, I thought.

I let him sit and then quickly grabbed away the phone from him and puched the end button...

"What the hell?" I flinched at the death stare he fixed on me but braced myself and put on a sweet smile.

"No calls at dinner time, right granma?" I said looking at her for support.

"Yes, of course your home, your rules..."she said. I didn't miss the smile that spread on her lips.

"What...?" Mr. K glared at her.

"Don't look at me, It's her rules from now onwards, you follow it or else..."

"Starve..."I supplied for her restraining the laugh that escaped through my lips.

It's very funny to see Mr. Arrogant finally yeilding to someone and sitting down, shooting daggers at me.

I served them roti and al first... "Hari, where's my dinner?"he shouted at the poor Hari who stood their trembling.

"There is no your and mine here, we all eat the same thing..."I said.

"What..." I raised my hands up gesturing him to stop cutting him off in the middle with hateful look.

"My house.." " My rules..." Dev added suppressing a giggle.

Mr. K stomped away into his room...

I felt really bad, I just wanted to tease him, he must be starving. I couldn't sleep with that thought. I poured some cornflakes into a bowl and went to his room, I wanted to knock but something stopped me, I peeked into his room. Hari was standing with a glass of water in his hands while Mr. K muched on the cornflakes. It is so stupid of me to think that Mr. Arrogant would starve, he always got his way.

I'm serving breakfast as Mr. K walked in and sat at his usual place, he waited for a few seconds to see if I would serve him, knowing that I wouldn't, he began to scoop the idlis. I grabbed the plate away from him. Everyone was astonished by my act.

"It is for sneaking at night into the kitchen... "

"I didn't..."he grumbled.

"I saw you eating cornflakes at night..."

"I didn't sneak, I made him bring them for me..." He admitted.

"Well..."

"Fine..."he got up from the chair.

"I'll let this go for granma but don't repeat it again..."I said in a bossy tone setting the late down.

Grandma tugged his arm and gestured him to sit when he stood unsure of what to do... Dev greeted me with a nod and sat down talking on his phone, Mr. k's eyes flickered between Dev and me as if he was trying to understand why he is allowed to talk on phone and he is not.

"Oops...sorry. I forgot." Dev clicked the end button smiling at me.

"Well, that answers your question. I think..." I muttered under my breath.

"What the hell are you doing at home?" he asked as I hopped into the car.

"What did I do?" I said waving to granma who came out see me off.

Mr. K shrugged and raced his car. He asked the same question as he pulled off at the office.

"What did I do, boss?" I said pulling an innocent look.

He stared icily and let me go. I enjoyed this game very much, Tom and Jerry, I thought. I heaved sigh knowing that it will be Tom's time now... Let's what he can do?


It looks like Nina is enjoying is too much from this game but you never know what Mr. arrogant has in store for her.
