On the funeral of

Mrs Sham's

Stella's Uncle : where is

Stella? She is late, is she really going to attend the funeral?

Stella's mother:

yeah, i called her and she told me that she is on the way and I know she won't

miss her grandmother's funeral

Stella's Uncle_ : okay then

let's wait!

(Stella arrives)

Stella's Uncles_ : oh! Here

you are! You are so late!

Stella: get lost!

Stella's Uncle : hey! How can you talk to me like that?

Stella's Aunt : it's okay dear, she is so sad, don't start a fight here

(Stella places flower)

Stella: I am so sorry granny that i didn't arrive on time, i hope you will forgive me (eyes

full of tears)

(after the funeral)

Stella's Aunt to Stella's mother: sister, is she still angry? (referring to Stella)

Stella's mother:

hmm, she is! Jasmin you were connected to her more then I do so you know her,

she is too much introverted and after that incident she stopped communicating

with others about her feelings, till now she talked about her feelings to

mother but now after her death she is completely broken.

Aunt_ : I think you

should send her on Date, so that she can meet her Mr perfect!

Stella's mother: i

tried my level best but she restricted herself with her office work and even

during holidays she keeps on working. It's almost 6 years now, huh!

Aunt_ : it's all my

fault, I shouldn't have sent that proposal of marriage and neither encouraged

her (sigh)

Stella's mother:

And.. How's he? (hesitant)

Aunt_ : he broke up

with Elena and is feeling guilty for his acts

Stella's mother: so

is he coming today?

Aunt_ : yes, he is

coming and he is only coming here to meet Stella, I think there is still

something left, shall we try again?

Stella's mother: are

you sure Jasmin?

Aunt_ : yeah! You

tried your level best to convince her about her marriage but she rejected, i

think she is rejecting for him. I think she still loves him, and even think

about it, when i told him that our mom is no longer alive he just asked me one

question and that was "is Stella coming?" , sister what i am telling

you now is really the truth, after that incident whenever i called him to

invite for any function he used to ask me only one question "is Stella

coming?" and when i  said that she

is not attending those he too didn't attend those functions, i agree that my

assumptions back then were wrong but this time, I am two hundred percent sure!

 Stella (comes to her

Aunt's room) : Mom! I am going home!

Stella's mother:

"why so early dear, at least stay here for two days. (requesting tone)

Stella: there is a

lot of work pending in the office and is waiting for me and i can't waste my

time here.

Stella's mother:

what do you mean? You lost your granny, your dear granny! How can you be so

cruel? Did you loose your heart somewhere? Where is my shy and innocent Stella?

(acting very hurt purposely to make her stay)

To Be Continued..

Stella: okay mom,

stop acting! i am ready to stay but not more than two days.

Stella's mother:

okay! I am okay with it

Stella: And.. Don't

believe this stupid woman (referring to her Aunt), when this women says that

she is two hundred percent sure then something is wrong. (leaves)

Aunt_ : this

ungrateful brat! Hey! you were listening to our conversations? You sneaky cat!

Stella's mother:

stop it Jasmin, for your sake i stopped her and requested her to stay, when is

he coming?

Aunt_ : my dear

idiot elder sister, do you think that she decided to stay here on your request?

Can't you think something out of the box? She heard our conversations it means

she also knows that he is coming and she purposely decided to stay, did you get

it now?

Stella's mother: so

you mean she still loves him?

Aunt_ : of course

she does! You know that he was her first crush

Stella's mother: And

also her first love. (sad)

Aunt_ : rest assure

elder sister, i already spoke to him and his parents they are ready for this

marriage now we have to only convince Stella and judging from her current

decision to stay here she still loves him

Stella's mother:

okay then! Let's have a try.

(Stella's room)                                                                                                                              

Lese (Stella's younger sister who is 10 years younger than her) : hey sis! I missed you so much (hugs her)                                                

Stella: oh my dear! I missed you too, you are too grown! Did you get any

boyfriend?

Lese: yes but he doesn't even no i love him, actually it's one

sided...                                                             

Stella: stupid! Always love the person who loves you back, one sided

love is just a creepy dream.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Lese (gossip mode on) : by the way sister i heard mom talking about your marriage what happened?                                                  

Stella: this little girl! How old are you? Already started gossiping!                                                                                                  

Lese: sis tell me please i am really interested in your love story, i always saw your frowning face, for some moment i want to see you delighted..                                                                                                                                                Stella: so you think i feel delighted by remembering him, i just feel

disgusting.

Stella : stop it!

(leaves)

Stella's mother:

To Be Continued..

Stella: my story

starts from here, I was 15 years old back then and i came to visit  Aunt (mother's sister) and my dear granny, as

my granny used to live with Aunt after my grandpa's death, I often used to

visit  grandmother but after

grandfather's death granny shifted here and i was too busy with my studies then

finally my vacations started and you were only five years old..

Lese: then what

happened?

Stella: then?

(smiles) i met him..

(Flashback begins)

Aunt_ : Stella my

dear (hugs) how are you?

Stella: oh! Aunt i

miss you (both of them acting dramatic)

Uncle_ : these two

started their drama again..

Stella's granny: oh

my dear! Stella! (rushes towards her and hugs her) I missed you..

Uncle_ : sorry i

take my words back these three started their drama again...

(granny, Stella and

her Aunt shout on him at once) : shut up..

Uncle_(covers his

face with the newspaper): sorry! Please continue..

Aunt_ : i prepared a

lot of snacks for you, come have some

Stella: Aunt because

of you i always become fat, i hate you for that..

Aunt_ : hey Stella

trust me if you eat this snack you won't get fat, 200%

Stella : then.. You

are not trustable

Aunt_ : come on, you

know today your Uncle's brother's Daughter and son are going to come, they will

be a good companions for you in these holidays..

Stella (smiles) :

companions for what?

Aunt_ (throws an

apple towards her) : you dirty talker!

(Stella gives her

perverted laugh)

Flashback ends..                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Lese: so my uncle's son is your crush?

Stella: yeah, he was

my crush and we met when I was only 15, he was 2 years older than me and he was

so calm and handsome that i fell in love with him, we played a lot there and

then he even promised me that he will spend his next vacations with me but later

he just disappeared.

Lese: disappeared?

What do you mean by that?

Stella: he wanted to

make his career and wanted himself to be selected as an heir of his father's

company because his sister was with a very strong background and her academics

plus business skills were too good that his father wanted his daughter to be the

heir but later looking at his competence his father made him the Heir of their

company, i heard a lot about him from Aunt and i missed him too much so i just

decided to make myself more strong and sharp and to take over my father's

business but later my Aunt came to me and she said that she wanted me to get

married to him so she asked me whether i loved him or not but when she came to

know that i loved him she decided to talk about our marriage to his parents.

Lese: so did his

parents object?

Stella: nope, his

parents were impressed by my skills and they were so into me that they

initially declared me as their daughter in law..

Lese: so then, what

was the problem? Your parents were ready, my mom was ready, Brother Farley's

parents were ready then what was the problem?
