Siya's Parents
Mr. Bansal
So, You're in sales. I have heard they get transferred abroad? Are you looking forward to getting promoted in America or Something?
Mr Bansal asked Kunaal in a cold domineering voice, acting like a strict dad protective of his daughter.
Mr and Mrs Bansal were seated on the three seater while Siya was seated near her father on the hand rest of that sofa meanwhile Kunaal was right in front of the three seater, seated on the single-seater of that sofa set.
Kunaal was sweating, as if he was being interviewed for a job.
Kunal
Sir, I would definitely like to be offered by the company to work abroad, but I joined just a couple of months ago. I really don't think the company would send a newbie abroad.
Mrs. Bansal
Why? Don't you have faith in yourself?
Mr. Bansal
Are you not confident enough? Not working hard enough?
Kunaal was spellbound. He was not expecting that his answer would actually look like a weakness there
Kunal
No, Uncle I have faith in myself. It's just that, the company policy-
Siya saw how flustered Kunaal was with the way her father was interviewing him and so, she finally decided to jump in.
Siya
Papa come on! Don't embarrass him. I know you're trying to scare him. Don't worry he will take good care of me
Siya looked at Kunaal and winked at him making Kunaal fluster even more, but her gesture did make him feel a bit at ease.
Mrs. Bansal
We are just making sure that he will be able to keep you happy.
Siya got up and went over to sit on the hand rest of Kunaal's chair now. Encircling her arms around his shoulders she said
Siya
Don't worry. If he ever hurts me, he knows I'm going to hurt him back with a hundred times more strength.
Kunal
Siyaa... Yaar... What are you doing?
Kunaal whispered, embarrassed at the way she was hugging him casually in front of her parents.
Siya
Why? You scared? Last night you were being a brave man, what happened now?
Mr and Mrs Bansal silently saw them both talking like that to each other and finally Mr. Bansal took a deep breath.
Mr. Bansal
Alright. But only if Kunaal's parents accept Siya as their daughter in law.
Siya jumped after hearing that and hugged her father tightly
A wide smile appeared on Kunaal's lips as well as he got up from his chair and shook hands with Mr. Bansal.
Kunal
Definitely uncle. I- umm.. We won't disappoint you.
