Moran - Dare to Love

Part 4

Hey guys, thank you for your votes and comments.

Continuing from the previous one,

Monami  appears to be a gentle girl, with all the qualities one would ask for in pretty girl -long hair, fair complexion, nice facial features and sparkly eyes. She is also very slim.

  The dress she is wearing is elegant and tasteful. With her proportions, she will look good in whatever she chooses to wear. She speaks with a soft and pleasant voice.

   She inherited her mother’s virtuous temperament - modest and elegant. But she also has her father’s free and easy going spirit. Though her father was only able to accompany her for six years, Monami   remembers a lot of his teachings,such as  “ A real man with live with integrity and a clear conscience always, and "Enjoy and maximize all the pleasures which life affords!” etc etc

As the sun begins to set, she starts to pack up.  She leaves the "Bamboo Fly Rod Oyster" and more than a dozen fish on the shore.  As they start to walk, Koel is amazed: “kya hum inn sabko aise hi chhod kar jaane wale h”

    “Yeah. He will come over and collect them later."

    When they reach their house, Koel asks: "Mona, you helped him to catch so many fish, did he not even send you an email to say thank you??" Koel not usually so preoccupied with other’s lack of gratitude, but she fears her sister’s generosity will be taken advantage of.

Monami  admits she has not thought about it.  To her, Karan seems to be a pretty straightforward guy. She smiles: “Tu kehna kya chah rahi h?"

Koel says: "I think you are too nice to the weirdo.  Are you interested in him?”

    Monami  laughs: "Nonsense." She had never seen him nor talk with that person..

    After three days, to her surprise, a parcel arrives - a gift from Mr. Shergill. 

    Walking into the house, she sees a large box on the table.  Koel looks at her.  Obviously, she’s waiting for Monami  to reveal what’s inside.

“From Kolkata. Faizuddin Siddiqui (Faizi) ne bheja hai tumhare liye." Koel asks curiously, “yeh toh woh gay partner hain na uss weirdo ka nahi? Usne tujhe kya bheja?"

Faizi didn’t mention anything about a parcel.  Monami  has no idea what it is.  To her surprise, it’s a brand new fishing rod, a ”Bamboo fly rod" Oyster! The exact same one as Karan

Monami  gave Faizi a call.

In another city, Faizi, dressed in a white doctor’s robe, sat in the office and was looking at his patients’ files.

"Monami , tum isse unn janab Karan ki taraf se token of appreciation samjh kar accept kar lo. He asked me to send it to you on his behalf.   You know how much he likes to eat fish. It’s nothing, really”

Monami  hesitates: "It is too expensive, I cannot accept this."

    Faizi smiles: "He has one already. And I don’t fish.  This rod will be wasted if you don’t accept it. "

    Monami  disagrees: “Mr. Siddiqui, this ‘reward’ is much bigger than my ‘sacrifice’. It’s only a few fish! ”

    "Yeh tumhe Dene ka idea Karan ka tha.. so iss baare me baat tumhe Karan se karni padegi.. Mohatrama hum iss par koi decision nahi le sakte." Faizi interrupts her, "but knowing his character, useless stuff gets thrown out. Tomorrow, you will see a pitiful ‘Oyster’ inside the garage bin by the back door.”
