So everyone in the minivan expect Varun said unanimously,” We bet that she will surely follow us in car or bike.”
Grandma grinned and said,” Let’s see. Whoever wins the bet must get us ice creams. Deal!”
Everyone shouted,” Deal.”
Lakshmi then said,”Varun, Come and sit next to paatti. Also we warn you now that you must not give her any signs or hints. By the way whose side are you with?”
Varun went and sat near his paatti and said,” Paatti side” and they both high-fived each other. After few minutes Maya came and she saw that all the seats were taken.
Janani asked,”Maya, What are you thinking?”
Varun thought to himself,” Maya, Please don’t ever say that you will follow us. I don’t want to see you coming alone or not ready to see you coming with Vivek too. I can’t leave my paatti and cousins behind and come with you. So, please do your mystery magic and get me out of this.”
His cousins thought,” So come on Maya. Say that you will follow us. Once you say we want to see what Varun does. Say it Maya.”
Janani and Preethi thought,” Maya, we know you so much. So come on. Ask us to accompany with you in car.”
