Bhaskar returned after changing and he was discussing about the marriage preparation of his daughter Lakshmi with Dhanraj son of Lawyer Satish.

Rama was standing in a corner and glancing towards gate occasionally.

Bhaskar observed Rama who was continuously looking towards the gate as if he is waiting for someone arrival.

"What is it Rama. Are you expecting someone?"

"😬 No Aiiiiya. Nothing like that"

Rama was still glancing towards the gate.

"Who are you?" Gangadhara master returned.

"What is this master? You forgot so soon. I am Janaki teacher no". Janaki was irritated.

"Yes Yes... Dont feel sad amma, dont feel sad...What to do? I remember sometimes, I forget sometimes..Why does it happen to me? you know sometimes my eyes get blurr and sometimes I sweat throughout body and sometimes you look like an old lady and sometimes you look so young" Gangadhara master said. This was enough Janaki melted😝

"Mother of two grown up children is young itseems" Bhaskar commented.

"A mother of 10 kids is also young" Janaki countered.

"By the by master what happened to you to get this memory loss disease" Lawyer Satish asked.

"Aiyo, thats the problem..When I was a small child I just remember the coconut falling on my head" 

Bhaskar interrupted " After that no one knows where the coconut rolled and went away. And now this fellow is throwing coconuts on us"

"Thats the problem now I dont remember anything. Thats the reason I even didnt get married" Gangadhara master said.

"Good. This is one thing you did right by not marrying anyone. Just imagine this fellow waking up at midnight and rolling side wards and asking his wife "Who are you? 👉" Bhaskar said.

"Thats the problem. I dont know why this happening with me" Gangadhara master was sad.

" Dont worry mastre we are all with you. We will give you our shoulder" Bhaskar said.

"I was so immersed in talking that I forgot to ask you who are you lady" Gangadhara master asked pointing towards Janaki who is boiling in anger now.

" Master you have to remember one thing, you are still working in that school because of me only. Otherwise they would have fired you long back"

"Why" Bhaskar was curious.

"During the test paper correction, he has given 160 out of 100 to all the students. From where did this 60 marks come from?"

"Yeah yeah from where did you get this extra marks mastre" Bhaskar questioned.

" Thats the problem" 

"As per seniority I was supposed to be the head teacher but that post was given to that Prafulla teacher. Gangadhara master you know right I was supposed to get that position but who got it" Janaki was angry

"👉 Who got it" Gangadhara master asked

"Prafulla teacher no"

"Yes yes how did she get the post. It should be you only. By the by who is she 🤔"

"When I joined what was the condition of the school and who was the one who improved it" Janaki ignored master.

"What was the condition" Bhaskar was enjoying the conversation.

"It was me who improved the condition of the school. The toilets were not clean"

Bhaskar interrupted "Note this point MyLord it was Janaki who cleaned those toilets"

"Chae what are you saying. There was no proper room and tables who arranged it"

"Who" everyone asked

"It was me no."

"Oho"

"There were no proper facilities the school needed, who arranged it"

"Who"

"It was me no. All those efforts were ignored and the post was given to that lady" Janaki was complaining.

Suddenly Rama who was standing ran into the house and hid himself.

"What happened Rama. Why are you running like that. Are you participating in any Olympics?" Bhaskar asked

"Appa, see there is someone near the gate.She is coming towards us" Lakshmi pointed towards the gate.

A scared girl clutching a small luggage containing just two sets of her torn clothes onto her chest was seen entering the house.

"Who is she and why she is coming here" Janaki questioned.

"Let me enquire her. You will scare the little girl with your strict interrogation" saying Bhaskar went near her.

"Who are you?"

(Silence)

"Agarbatti aa" Bhaskar enquired.

She nods in a no.

"What are you asking?" Janaki was shocked with his question.

" I am trying to get information. You know right there are few salesgirl who come to house doors and sells things" Bhaskar explained.

Turning towards her "Phenyl aa"

Again nods a no.

Meanwhile Gangadhara master came towards her

"Why you didn't come to class today? Why? Tomorrow come with your father" he said

Everyone's reaction 🤦

Turning towards Bhaskar "Who are you?"

"I am her father mastre" he said

"Aiyayyo, how many are there like her" Janaki started wailing.

"There are a dozen, shall I call them too... I am trying to send this fellow inside. Hope he gets satisfied with my answer and goes inside" he said.

"Oho, so you are the father.Why aren't you sending your daughter to school you spook. Send her to school regularly" saying Master went inside.

"Yabba he killed me alive and made me a spirit" Bhaskar was shocked.

"You asked for it" Janaki countered.

"Who are you ma. Whom you wanted to speak?" Bhaskar enquired.

She pointed towards the room Rama ran into.

"You know Rama? You wanted to talk to him?"

She nods a yes.

"Hey, Rama come here. She wants to talk with you" Bhaskar called him outside.

He came out.

"Hey Rama, I left the job at the doctor's house. Shall I work here" she pleaded.

"Oh, so you are the girl with whom this fellow is busy nowadays" Janaki was furious.

"Why you came here dear. What's your name. Any problem" Bhaskar enquired.

"My name is Parvati.
I left the job at the doctor's house. Shall I work here?" she pleaded.

"Wah! Parvati What a beautiful name! Janaki is it a name😝" Bhaskar was in a playful mood and started annoying Janaki.

"What! Weren't you the one who praised the name when you came to see me for marriage" Janaki was getting annoyed as expected.

"Yeah that time I didn't realise what I have to bare for this lifetime 😝😂"

"Haa haa same feeling here too" Janaki said.

At that time, there was a huge commotion outside their house.
Rajesh was shouting on top of his voice while entering the house. Parvati got afraid and ran inside without asking or listening to anyone.
