Tia's Thread - Trauma!!!

There is no human being on planet who hasn't gone through some sort of trauma or other in their life. 

Each individual has their own way of coping with it based on the intensity of the trauma.

Some people would pretend it didn't happen and refuse to talk about it.

Some people would react in uncharacteristic manner like someone really bold will turn timid or vice versa.

Some people might react the same way they have always done but in a much more intense level.

However, what is required at that time is understanding their mental state and instead of ignoring it and/or brushing it under the carpet, show compassion and patience.

If needed, professional counselling at that time can help cope with the stress induced by the trauma. 

I have volunteered in women shelter and have seen some of the most horrific cases first hand. No two people reacted the same in the same situation but they all had one thing in common. They all needed understanding, support and compassion.

Now coming to Sonakshi. While I found her reaction to be completely at odd from her mind-numbing fear less than an hour ago (or so it seemed), I assumed that she is just those people who ignores the trauma and bounces back easily.

What I had problem with her was how she was noticing Bhaiya's strange behaviour but ignoring it completely. As if, if she doesn't see it or acknowledge it or even bother talking/asking about it, it will disappear overnight. But trauma induced stress doesn't work that way.

Bhaiya had always been over-protective (he got irritated by Bijoy for the same reason, but he is no different. If anything, he is even more possessive) and had stalking/fixing stuff in the background tendency before this incident. Even Sonakshi knew that.

But after this trauma, which gave him a scare of losing his lifeline - Sonakshi, has intensified his over-protective and possessive nature 10,000 fold.

Just talking and telling him not to do what he is compelled to do won't help.

What Bhaiya really needs is counselling or at least face his fear through talking it out. Had Sonakshi addressed Bhaiya's past behaviour instead of rolling her eyes at his puppy dog face or forgetting about it only two minutes after scolding him, she won't be irritated today.

But Miss Fix It didn't really want a man who is capable of handling problems on his own. She wanted a DIY project, a fixer-upper. 

Can't complaint now that Bhaiya is a lot of work when that's exactly what appealed to her Miss Fix It nature.

She wanted a husband who will always need her to take care of him/manage him? Well, she got him. 

Had she wanted her initial dream of equal partner to deal with issues shoulder to shoulder, she would have picked Ritwik or Jatin.


EPISODE: The episode starts with Sonakshi is in Bhaiya's office with cake.

Bhaiya asks how did you like the celebration? 

She said: The team is mine so the party should be from me too.

Me: Ooooohhhh... So Bhaiya went behind Sonakshi's back and arranged the party for her workers. Ooi Maa. Aaj to Bhaiya ki class lagegi.

(Today Bhaiya is going to get it)


Bhaiya says: Party should be arranged by someone who can't count the calorie in the cake. Come on, Miss Bose. It was a must for our team.

Sonakshi says: So you think that you...

Bhaiya: You, me, me, you... Don't you think you think too much? Women I tell you.

Me: Oooh, aah, ouch. Bhaiya, you just dug your own grave. Now just stop talking before Sonakshi arranges your funeral.


Sonakshi: Really? You have a lot of experience with women?

Bhaiya: I guess, I have a little. I have three sisters, you are there, Maa is there and I have a little daughter. And I am only one poor lonesome guy.

Me: Oh dear Lord. Bhaiya stop talking. Shush. You are just digging it deeper. 


Sonakshi gives a fake smile: Poor lonesome guy. Does a poor lonesome guy do this? And because of that poor lonesome guy I got the contract. 

Bhaiya: Why are you repeating the same thing over and over like Hindi news channel?

Sonakshi: Really? Look who is talking.

She is about to leave when Bhaiya grabs her and says: Okay Sonakshi. I am saying this the last time. Your company got this contract because of you. I just ordered the cake. So just say thank you and end this.

Sonakshi says: No. One minute.

She feeds him the cake.

Bhaiya eats the cake and asks: Did you have it?

Sonakshi says: The cake is yours and the win as well.

Then she leaves. 

Bhaiya thinks. But not sure if he realises that he is in trouble.

Me: Bhaiya, here's a hint for you clueless soul. Pay attention to body language. When a woman stands with her arms crossed and serious eyes with fake smile, it doesn't bode well for the person standing in front of her. 

Next time, take my father-in-law's advice. He told my husband when we got married that when it feels that you might be on a quicksand with your wife and not sure how you got there being a clueless man, just say sorry and smile like an idiot. Women tend to forgive faster that way.

My husband had been following that advice ever since our marriage and I am glad to say that in our five years of marriage, our fight never continues to the next day.

I will pass on that priceless gem to my son if I have one.


Vicky and the guy (probable business rival) is in a car.

The guy is asking for the proof of his loyalty.

Vicky says that he has such a proof that it will make his mind blow.

He shows the recording of Bhaiya in his office.

The guy wonders what he will do with that recording?

Vicky says that Bhaiya is working on a new software. He says that this software will kill all his competition in the market.

The guy asks how can he trust him?

Vicky says because Dev has told him himself and when he says something, he does it.

The guy says that before Bhaiya wipes his company off the market, he wants Vicky to get the software for him.

Vicky says he will get it for a price.

The guy (his name is Thakkar) offers him whatever money he wants.

Thakkar gets out.

Vicky says that Dev Dixit wanted to wipe out the competition, now he will see how he gets wiped out. He used to think that he is oversmart. But he has said before that Dev Dixit's the end has started. The countdown has began.


Me: Okay, so this is what happens when idiots think that something like software is a matter of taking from one laptop to another. One thing I know is that those people who create software are the only one who knows what is its weakness.

It's not something you can steal and use. You can steal the idea and try to re-create it but then patents and proprietary rights come into effect.

You have to prove in court that you came up with the idea and prove that you have built it with past conversation and discussions with time stamps which Bhaiya will have and they won't.

Also, you will have to show that you know all the glitches and applications. Because if you don't and the person suing you does, then it's proven that the person suing you developed it and you stole it.

This idiot Thakkar is going out of business because he doesn't know how software and patents work although he is in that line of business and the duffer Vicky was only employed thanks to Bhaiya's family connection hence has zero knowledge of business.

Moral of the story: Hire people based on qualification. Nepotism doesn't pay in the long run.


Bhaiya is working at his desk when he hears fire alarm. He is shocked.

One of his employees asks him to get out because the office is on fire. He runs out of the office in exactly the opposite direction to exit where everyone else is running to.

Why? 

Me: Well because he thinks that Sonakshi is the kind of moron who will be sitting in a building where fire alarm is ringing. 

Why is he thinking that? Because his brain is not working since yesterday.


Anyhoo, he reaches Sonakshi's office but the office door is closed. So he starts banging like a mad man and calling her name.

The doorman comes there and tries to stop him. But he pushes him away and continues banging. 

He then breaks the door and goes in. He doesn't see anyone inside. 

Me: No seriously. Who will be inside with door locked while the fire alarm is shrieking? As I said, Bhaiya's brain isn't working thanks to post traumatic stress. Why doesn't he call Sonakshi to see where she is? But as I said, Bhaiya's brain is on lock down mode.


He comes out and looks around. Just then Sonakshi comes and asks: Dev, what happened?

Bhaiya is relieved. He says: Thank God. Are you alright? 

Sonakshi: Yes, what happened?

Bhaiya says: Your cabin is on fire. Thank God, you are alright. 

Bhaiya hugs her fiercely. Sonakshi is shocked.

Me: Sonakshi, are you seeing his face? He looks half mad with grief (and that weird hair ain't helping). Please for heaven's sake, pay attention. There is a method to his madness which is increasing daily.


At home, Soha is studying. 

Golu comes and asks: Suhana, how much will you study? Leave it. Let's play games.

Soha says: If I don't study, how will I get good marks? Exams come once, not over and over again.

Golu laughs. 

Soha wonders why is he laughing.

Golu says: Have you ever seen me studying during exams? I act as if I have tummy ache. So the exam gets postponed for another day.

Soha says: Golu, that's cheating. I want to study.

Golu begs for her to come play with him. He says: If you don't come, BigCha will think that you are no. 1 moron.

Soha asks: Why would Papa think that?

Golu says: It was his idea, stupid.

Soha wonders: Papa?

Golu nods.

Me: Soha is Papa's no. 1 fan and just like her mother, when people talk about her father, her brain shuts down. So instead of thinking why her Papa will want her to ditch studies and play with Golu, she will get convinced to ditch her studies. 


Sonakshi comes home. 

Ishwari greets her: There you are. You look so tired. Sit here for a minute. I will serve food for you. Dev also came just a while ago.

Sonakshi says: A while ago? He must have come just now and asked you to say this to me.

Ishwari says: No, why will he say that to me? What happened?

Sonakshi says: Nothing. I am just tired. I had a lot of work to do today.

Ishwari says: Sonakshi, sometimes it's fine. But don't work too hard everyday. If you stay stressed like this, then your health will suffer naa?

Bhaiya chirps in: Yes, Maa. I was also saying the same to her. But she keeps getting stressed over every little thing.

Then he wiggles his brows at her.

Sonakshi glares at him.

Me (rubs her head in frustration): Bhaiya, aap muh bandh karne ka kya lenge? Jitna ghadda khoda tha, utna kafi nehin hain kya? 

(Bhaiya, what will it take for you to shut up? The hole you already have dug for you, isn't that enough?)


Ishwari says: You shut up. You are the same. In fact, when it comes to work, you two are exactly similar. You can't see anything before work. Now look at me. I also came home from work. But see how happy I am. I had a great day.

Sonakshi smiles.

Bhaiya says: That I can see from your face. Tell me what did you learn today?

Ishwari smiles: Today kids complained the whole day why I gave my resignation. I shouldn't have done this. Do you know, they made me sign a letter that I will never give my resignation again. First they took my sign and then everyone signed on the letter.

Both Sonakshi and Bhaiya are impressed.

Bhaiya says: Wow Maa. Your whole staff love you.

Sonakshi says: Show me the letter. I will sign it too.

Bhaiya says: Yes, me too. Maa, serve food fast. I am very hungry.

Ishwari says: Yes, yes. I am serving food. You guys come.

She leaves in a hurry.

Bhaiya smiles looking at Sonakshi who is back to being mad at Bhaiya.

Me: Bhaiya, if you just realise why Sonakshi is mad, everything will fall in place. You will realise that you have crossed a line which you shouldn't have crossed. You won't celebrate a win Sonakshi got for you if you wanted it really badly. How can she celebrate her success with your interference? So please keep your professional life separate. 

I can work in the same industry or company as my husband. But I know that if I do, then having a husband who is a Director of a company where I will work in a middle management post won't make my colleagues treat me like any other employee.

So I work in a completely different industry where no one knows him or my father-in-law by name. Is Financial services my dream industry? No. But it's an industry where none of my family members work. So I make and break my own career here.

It's not easy for a woman to fight all the pre-conceived notions and glass ceilings. But please don't make it even more difficult for her to be taken seriously as a bankable business owner as opposed to Sonakshi Bose, the wife of Dev Dixit.

She is not denying that she is a wife. But at her workplace, she is only a professional.

Coming to Sonakshi, you have to pay attention to Bhaiya as well. His sudden possessiveness is escalating. If you don't face the problems while they are still manageable, they will continue to escalate. 


Vicky comes to Elena who is fiddling with her camers. He says: Reduce the temperature of the AC. It's too hot in here.

Elena says: Remote is by your side. Do it yourself.

Vicky asks: Are you avoiding me now?

Elena says: Vicky please. I am working. Let me work in peace.

Vicky stops her: Work later. First talk to me.

Elena says: Vicky, I don't want to talk to you.

Vicky says: If you don't want to talk to me, then fine. But I got you something. 

He takes her camera.

Elena gets irritated: What are you doing, Vicky?

Vicky says: Let me do what I want to do.

He shows a diamond ring.

Elena: Diamond ring? Where did you get it from?

Vicky: Arre? I didn't steal it. I bought it myself. I paid full price for it. I know I made a mistake. And I am really sorry for that. I know you don't think I am not a good husband. And I know why you think that. But you can give me a little time, naa? I promise you that I will prove to you that I am the best.

He puts the ring on Elena's finger.

He says sorry again and hugs Elena. She hugs him back.

Me: As I said before, Vicky only loves two people in his life. Okay, three.

His mother, Elena and himself. And thanks to Radha's twisted upbringing, he actually thinks that everyone loves Bhaiya because he has got money. So he thinks that if he earns money, everyone will fawn over him like they fawn over Bhaiya.

Vicky, Vicky, Vicky. What makes you think that when Elena finds out that you ruined her cousin's husband and made that family suffer who gave you everything, she will be fawning over you? Don't you know your wife even a little?

If nothing else, at least tell your mother so that she can use her newly found brain and bring you back from your own ruin.

Why is Dixit/Tripathy men such duffers when it comes to their wives?


Sonakshi comes to their bedroom calling Bhaiya's name and sees the whole room is decorated with candles.

She is surprised.

She sees Bhaiya is standing clutching their wedding picture. She becomes instant puddle.

She says shyly: I wanted to ask you something.

Bhaiya caresses her hair: You focus on me so much that you don't even pay attention to yourself. Take care of yourself too. Ask me.

Sonakshi is about to say it. But Bhaiya says: Your time is up. I have a surprise for you.

Sonakshi is shocked.

Me: Me too. Bhaiya is matching the background score these days - SCARY!!!


Bhaiya gets a box and gives to Sonakshi.

She holds it and asks: What is this?

Bhaiya says: When it was on my hand, it was a gift for you. Now it's on your hand, so now it's your right. See for yourself.
Sonakshi opens the box. It's, as per precap yesterday, a pot of Sindoor and Mangalsutra.
Sonakshi is pleasantly surprised. She smiles at Bhaiya.

Bhaiya puts Mangalsutra around her neck and Sindoor on her forehead.


Me: May I say, Bhaiya has a really bad choice for Mangalsutra. Her previous one which she burned was better. This one looks like that it came straight from a grandma's treasure chest. It doesn't go with Sonakshi's choice of outfits or her delicate build.

Anyhoo, Bhaiya, that Sindoor and Mangalsutra aren't built-in electric fence which will keep her safe regardless what old wives' tales say. Just saying... 


Then he turns her to the mirror and hugs her from the back: Like you are now in my arms, and you are my right. You are mine and no one can snatch you away from me. No one.

Sonakshi smiles even though she feels strange.


He turns Sonakshi to him: I won't let no pain, no problem, no tension come to you. Because I will keep them far away from you. Very far.

Sonakshi smiles slowly.

Bhaiya smiles too. He hugs her.

Me: Sonakshi, are you looking at Bhaiya's eyes? He is not just saying this casually or metaphorically. He is saying it literally. He has a crazed look in his eyes and you are not even paying attention. You have to talk to him and find out the root of the problem. Why are you so oblivious after getting back together when you could sniff out his acts before getting back together? He needs help, sooner rather than later. 


Next morning, Vicky and Bhaiya is in the garden.

Vicky is challenging Bhaiya to do push ups.

Bhaiya calls him childish.

Vicky says that he must have got scared.

Just then Elena and Sonakshi come there.

Me: I am getting heartburn seeing Elena in elegant nightgown and Sonakshi in tacky kurta with zari border straight out of Chawri Bazaar roadside reject. Even they sell better nightgowns there.

However, the good news is Bhaiya is wearing a cap so we don't have to see his half hair flipping both ways. I wish he wears the cap all the time so I can look at him sometimes.


Golu and Soha come running. Golu says: BigCha isn't scared of anyone. BigCha, you do push ups. I will sit on you.

Soha says: No, Golu. I will sit on Papa. 

Vicky comes with a solution: Okay, let's do this. Soha can sit on me and Golu will sit on his BigCha. Golu is happy and Soha is also happy.

Me: What a snake. He is stabbing knife with one hand and feeding Halwa with another. I can see season one Ishwari trait there.


Elena says: They will just waste time. They can't do anything else.

Bhaiya gets his ego hurt: I am ready.

Vicky says: I was always ready.

They get into position with kids on their back and starts doing push ups.

Elena cheers for them and makes a real production of showing the ring.

Sonakshi notices it and jokes: Be careful, Elena. You might get sprain from the weight of the diamond.

Elena beams big: Vicky gave it to me.

Sonakshi smiles: It's gorgeous.

Elena says: Thank you.

The competition is still going on.

Sonakshi says: First they were not starting and now they don't want to stop. 

She says: Come on kids. Don't you have school to go to?

Golu says: BigChi, two minutes.

Just then Vicky collapses.

Soha says: Chachu, we lost.

Golu says: Didn't I say that BigCha never loses?

Soha says: Yay!!! Papa won.

Sonakshi says: Let's go. Enough of your fun. Now it's time for school.

Golu winks at Soha and they run off.

Elena and Sonakshi also leave.

Vicky says: I lost again.

Bhaiya says: Don't worry. I am out of shape these days, buddy. You run 7 kms. I can't even run 2 kms. 

Vicky says: Yeah, alright. I wanted to ask you something. Why have you stalled the production? If you do this, we will be facing loss, no?

Bhaiya says: Yes, right now there is a reason why I have stopped the production. You just remember that sometimes one has to suffer little loss to make it big.

Vicky says: Oh. I understood. You don't want to tell you brother, huh?

Bhaiya says: No, it's nothing like that. The reason is that what I have thought hasn't happened yet. So what's the point in talking about this?

Vicky is overeager for obvious reasons: But tell me something naa so that I can get motivated too.

Bhaiys says: Okay fine. Look, I am designing a new software which is very costly to develop. But once it's made, no one will be able to compete with us in the market. I am waiting for that. Once it's done, then production will start as well.

Vicky: Wow, Bhai. Very nice.

Me: And you are as dumb as a block of dice, duffer.

Had you any education or experience, you'd know that the reason Bhaiya isn't releasing the software in the market is because it's not completely ready. It has a glitch which can harm his reputation if it's not well fleshed out. Like last year's phone blast for Samsung or data leak from Apple/Sony database. Those things has to be tested over and over before introducing to the general public. 

Otherwise, why he won't start producing the software immediately? He already said that it cost him money to develop this, then why won't he recoup his losses? He is not moron to run his company in deficit.

But you are most definitely a moron to just listen half of what he said.


Elena comes and calls them inside.

Bhaiya gets up.

Vicky says that he will see him in office.

Then he thinks.

Me: You know why quick rich schemes are called scams? Because there is no quick way to get rich. But there are greedy morons like you who lacks patience, intelligence and experience to amount to anything except good for nothing and bad for everything.


Bhaiya comes to his room where Sonakshi is getting ready. She is wearing her Mangalsutra and Sindoor.

Me: She is wearing a better outfit and looking very pretty. 

But the bad news is Bhaiya took off the cap. 


Bhaiya stands in front of her and starts tying his tie.

Sonakshi comes in front of him and puts the other earrings, tucks her MangalSutra in her top and is about to leave when Bhaiya grabs her hand. 

Bhaiya says: When someone gives a gift, one should flaunt it. (He takes the MangalSutra out). One shouldn't hide it.

Sonakshi says: My husband's love is for me, why should I show it to the work?

Bhaiya says: Yes, but it's good for roadside romeos. You should thank me. When they see this, they won't bother you.

Me (mouth drops open): Hain? What kind of logic is this? This is the same logic as the moron who said that if you call a prospective rapist Bhaiya, they will tie a Rakhi and slither away. 

Bhaiya, unless that MangalSutra is a signal for Batman, I doubt it will be effective against drunken goons. Sonakshi needs to apply her brain, not MangalSutra to fend off animals on the street.

Oh and also buy a well-maintained car with a driver. That will help too. 


Sonakshi: Really? Then what about those women who wear this and all symbols of marriage? They also have incidents happening to them.

Bhaiya is exasperated: You are taking my talk to another direction. I was not saying that.

Sonakshi: So I am asking exactly that. What are you trying to say?

Bhaiya thinks for a minute: Let it be. You just tell me one thing. Just tell me if you have any problem wearing the gift I gave you in my way?

Sonakshi shakes her head: I have no problem.

Bhaiya: Then? What's your point?

Me: Bhaiya, your arguments are sounding like my husband. If you have no problem doing things my way, then why don't you do it anyway? Well, because sometimes, even if I have no problem doing it your way, I just might want to do it my way anyway because it's my choice. Simple.

Sonakshi says: There's a point. But I don't have time. I have to leave for my meeting. Okay?

Bhaiya stops her: One minute. Meeting with whom?

Sonakshi: I am not telling you the name. I want to do this my way as Miss Bose. I don't have to achieve anything as Mrs. Dixit. And I hope you will understand.

Bhaiya: Okay, okay. But have your breakfast at least.

Sonakshi says: I am getting late. You have breakfast, okay?

She leaves.

Bhaiya thinks.

Me: I don't think Bhaiya registered what she said. At least his expression doesn't say this.


At Bose house, Bijoy, Saurabh and Ronita are having food.

Just then someone rings a bell.

Bijoy is about to check. But Asha goes to open the door. She says it must be the courier guy.

Bijoy asks who could it be for?

Saurabh jumps: This big a box? Must be for me.

Bijoy also eagerly jumps.

Asha says: What is with you guys? 

Saurabh says: There was no need to order such a big gift for me.

Bijoy asks: What is it, what is it?

Asha says: It's not for either one of you. It's for Ronita. 

Ronita chirps: For me? Wow!!!

Saurabh grabs the box: She is my wife. Her gift is my gift.

Ronita runs after him to get her courier.

Asha says: You are behaving like kids.

Bijoy grabs the box from Saurabh and says: You guys are behaving like kids. You two are checking courier secretly. We will see it too.

Asha and Ronita glare at them.

Bijoy opens the box. There's another box inside.

He hands the box to Saurabh: Saurabh, you check.

Then Saurabh opens it. Then comes out another box.

He complaints: I should have let Ronita opens this.

Asha nods.

He says that if there's another box, I won't open it.

Asha says: No no. Open box. Work hard.

Saurabh takes out the final tiny packet. It's a pregnancy test.

Saurabh stammers.

Asha says: When I tell you two something, you should listen.

Bijoy looks guilty.

Saurabh stammers some more.

Asha snatches it from him: I told you naa that it's for Ronita? What is it, what is it, what is it...

Me: Serves them right. I swear Bhaiya will turn into Bijoy and Sonakshi is already Asha. Saurabh is worse. Good Lord. 


Sonakshi is sitting in the same coffee house everyone goes and talking to someone. 

Suddenly she looks up and looks around.

The guy asks: Is something wrong?

Sonakshi says: No, no. Actually I thought I saw someone.

She gets back to the meeting. 

Just then the waiter comes with coffee. He gives her a cappuccino.

Sonakshi is confused: Cappuccino? I ordered Americano.

The waiter says that he must have heard wrong. But Sonakshi says that it's okay. She will have this.

She drinks the coffee and is pleasantly surprised. She says: Perfect.

They continue their meeting.

Then the waiter comes again with a Pizza.

Sonakshi says: What is this?

The waiter says: Pizza.

Sonakshi: But we didn't order this.

Me (Facepalm): Now I know what is going on. Bhaiya is back to his Bhaiyagiri. He just doesn't learn. Bhaiya, do you want a bigger shovel to dig your grave faster?


The waiter makes excuses: The thing is that you are working here. So our restaurant thought you should eat something on our behalf. 

Sonakshi says: Right. So you also knew that I like Pizza. You know what? I know what is going on. Dev...

She looks around and sees Bhaiya sitting in another table hiding behind a waiter.

He grabs the menu from the waiter and tells him to leave. Then he hides behind the menu.

Me: Seriously? Dear Ostrich, the rest of your body is showing even though you have hid your face in the sand.


Sonakshi comes there and calls his name.

Bhaiya tries to look away but Sonakshi snatches his menu.

Bhaiya gets up in a hurry.

Sonakshi whispers angrily: What are you doing? Have you gone mad? I can't believe this. Tumi ekdom impossible.

Bhaiya says: Enough of Tumi Tumi... 

Sonakshi says: You know naa that I am in an important meeting here. You are still doing this?

Bhaiya looks around: Yes, so what am I doing? I was sitting here alone. You are the one who is shouting my name here.

Sonakshi: Yes, and you are ordering me pizza and coffee. If you stay here, I will get distracted. Ever since you came here, I could sense you. I knew that you were here.

Bhaiya is happy: That happens in love.

Sonakshi is even more pissed off: Just stop it okay. Let me do my meeting and go from here.  

Bhaiya: You left without eating anything. So I was worried for you. That's why I ordered Pizza and stuff for you.

Sonakshi: Dev, if I am hungry, I can order my food.

Bhaiya: And now a Pizza is waiting for you at your table which you can eat. I will sit here quietly.

Sonakshi: So you won't leave.

Bhaiya: I will go. But I also have a meeting here.

Sonakshi: With whom?

Bhaiya: With someone from Hawaii.

Me: And that bull has as much substance as Hawa (Air)...

Sonakshi asks: Okay, who?

Bhaiya says: Mr. Zzaaa.

Sonakshi says: Mr. Zzaaa?

Bhaiya says: Mr. Hawaiian Pizza.

Sonakshi feels exasperated and walks away.

Bhaiya smiles.

Me: Don't fly so high, Bhaiya. You will be crushed like Pineapple juice if you don't take your idiot jokes and scoot from there pronto.


But of course Bhaiya sits down again.

Me: He has no sense of self preservation. God, please make my children smarter than him so that they don't get taken to task by their wives?


Sonakshi comes back to her table. Her client asks if everything is alright. He offers to reschedule the meeting. 

She says with a smile: No need. Coincidentally my husband is also here for his own meeting. 

The client talks about the business. 

Sonakshi thinks that Bhaiya didn't come after her today. Then how did he know where she was?

Bhaiya turns around and checks on his most prized possession.

Sonakshi checks her phone and notices a new app. 

She thinks to herself: What is this new app for? It was not here yesterday.


Me: Holy crapola!!! Bhaiya has put tracker on Sonakshi's phone. Ab to Bhaiya gayo. Ram Naam Satya honewala hain unka ab to.

(Now he is done for. His funeral is going to be arranged soon).


She checks it and it's a tracker as I suspected. She is shocked: Tracker app? Dev installed tracker app in my phone? Why is he stalking me like this? He is not as normal as he is looking. What is going in in his head?


Me: There you go. You are on the right track, Sonakshi. Keep walking there and you shall receive the answer and then you can together look for solution.


PRECAP: Bhaiya is saying to Sonakshi in his room: How can you do this to me? You think that you can go anywhere and I shouldn't worry about you?

Sonakshi says: You put tracker on my phone. What's up with that?

Bhaiya: What if you are in trouble?

Sonakshi: Then I will tell you, Dev. I know what I should be doing.

Bhaiya: So what is wrong in what I am doing? And I won't just do it today. I will always do it and do it for the rest of my life.

Me: The problem is Sonakshi that you, Golu and Soha have hyped up Bhaiya as hero. But he is not a hero. He is a human being. He can't be everywhere all the time. But the pressure of being hero combined with fear of losing you are making him so insecure. He is scared that what if next time he can't reach on time? What if he loses you? What will he tell Soha and your combined family? How will he live without you?

I had said it about Bhaiya hyping Ishwari to a position of Goddess that no one can stay put in the pedestal forever. The same applies there.

You have to address Bhaiya with love, patience, understanding and yes, also counselling.

His fear needs to be eliminated, not ignored.



NO RULES!!! YAY!!!
