Laddu somehow managed to sit in the back seat while Mochi remained glued to him like a giant koala who had legally adopted a human 🐨💀
Her arms were looped around his chest.Her cheek was pressed to his shoulder.Her grip suggested she planned to never release him in this lifetime or the next.
Candy sat in the front seat, giggling nonstop 😆Father started the engine with the face of a man who already regretted tonight 😐Mother and Cousin squeezed in beside each other 🤏Maya leaned half out of her seat, phone ready 📱😈
The car started moving.
Mochi mumbled softly, voice sleepy but extremely possessive.
Mochi:
"Husband… don't let Lee come near you."
💀💀💀
Laddu stopped breathing.
Laddu:
"Mochi, I swear on all dumplings 🥟, I am NOT your husband."
Mochi hugged him tighter.
Mochi:
"You will be."
Father swerved slightly.
Father:
"CAN WE NOT DISCUSS MARRIAGE IN MY CAR?!"
Mochi ignored him completely and looked forward with innocent eyes.
Mochi:
"Papa… can I get another drink?"
Mother twisted around so fast the seat creaked.
Mother:
"Of course NOT!"
Mochi pouted like a denied toddler.
Mochi:
"You are no fun."
Cousin burst into laughter 😂Maya wiped tears 😭Candy yelled proudly:
Candy:
"MAMA SAID NO DRINKS, BIG SISTER!"
Mochi frowned and leaned closer into Laddu's neck.
Mochi:
"When I'm around you… I feel like a child."
Laddu internally evaporated ☁️
Laddu:
"O-Okay… calm… calm… tall flower…"
Mochi poked his cheek clumsily ☝️
Mochi:
"How is Indian alcohol?"
Laddu blinked twice.
Laddu:
"You? Indian alcohol?"
Mochi nodded seriously.
Mochi:
"Yes. I want it."
Laddu leaned in and whispered carefully:
Laddu:
"Only by smelling Indian alcohol… you will reach THIS stage."
Mochi gasped dramatically.
Mochi:
"Then I want it."
Laddu:
"No."
Mochi:
"Yes."
Laddu:
"No."
Mochi pressed her forehead against his.
Mochi (whisper):
"Give me."
Laddu's voice cracked like cheap plastic.
Laddu:
"If I give you Indian alcohol… this car will NOT survive."
Father shouted from the front:
Father:
"I WILL NOT SURVIVE!"
Maya leaned forward.
Maya:
"She's already level 100. Indian alcohol will turn her into earthquake 🌍."
Mother nodded.
Mother:
"She'll confess to everyone on the street."
Candy added cheerfully:
Candy:
"She'll beat up Lee!"
Lie sneezed in the other car 🤧The universe laughed.
Mochi buried her face into Laddu's shoulder again.
Mochi:
"I don't like Lee. Only you."
Laddu's heart exploded quietly 💥❤️
Laddu (tiny whisper):
"Please stop… or I will melt."
Mochi lifted her head, eyes half-lidded, drunk but honest.
Mochi:
"Good. Melt for me."
Mother covered her mouth 😭Father yelled:
Father:
"WHO RAISED HER LIKE THIS?!"
Cousin:
"This is a romantic disaster movie."
Candy:
"I LOVE THIS MOVIE!"
THE WORM QUESTION ARC 🐛
The car hummed softly as it moved through the night 🌙Mochi was still wrapped around Laddu like a personal heater 🔥
Suddenly she lifted her head.
Mochi (serious drunk voice):
"Laddu… what if I was a worm?"
The car froze.
Laddu blinked.
Laddu:
"Which type of worm?"
Mochi gasped.
Mochi:
"What do you mean which type?! Worm is worm!"
Laddu raised one finger.
Laddu:
"No. Earthworm, glow worm, red worm, Canadian worm. Species matters."
Mochi narrowed her eyes.
Mochi:
"Would you love me if I was a worm?"
Laddu thought.
Laddu:
"I cannot love a worm. Worm has no hands, no face, no height, no ability to shout at me."
Mochi's lip trembled dramatically 😢
Mochi:
"You wouldn't love me…?"
Then she hugged him so tight the seatbelt screamed.
Laddu:
"Mochi… spine… oxygen… gone…"
Mochi:
"ANSWER!"
Laddu panicked.
Laddu:
"Yes! I will LIKE worm version also!"
Mochi froze.
Mochi:
"Like? Not love?"
Laddu nodded honestly.
Laddu:
"Yes. Like."
💀 FAMILY REACTION 💀Maya screamed laughing 🤣Candy clutched the seat 😆Cousin lost control 😭Mother covered her faceFather muttered prayers 🙏
Mochi:
"Why not love me?"
Laddu sighed.
Laddu:
"If I love you… then you become pregnant."
💥💥💥
Mother:
"WHAT?"
Candy:
"EXCUSE ME?"
Maya:
"I'M DONE."
Father:
"STOP TALKING."
Mochi's face lit up instantly ✨
Mochi:
"Good."
Everyone:
"NO LOVE."
Mochi rested her head again peacefully 😌
Three seconds passed.
Mochi:
"What if I was a boy?"
🧊 TOTAL FREEZE 🧊
Candy:
"NO."
Mother:
"Please God."
Maya covered her mouth.
Laddu answered instantly.
Laddu:
"Then I will send you to jail."
Mochi snapped upright.
Mochi:
"WHAT?! WHY?!"
Laddu pointed dramatically.
Laddu:
"For harassment! You hug me, lift me, choke me, attempt kiss, and call me husband!
If you were a boy, this is ILLEGAL!"
Maya screamed laughing 🤣Cousin dropped her phone 📱Mother nodded in shame 😔
Mochi pouted hard.
Mochi:
"You'd send me to jail…?"
Laddu pulled her closer gently.
Laddu:
"If you were a boy, yes.
But you are my tall flower."
Mochi melted again.
Mochi:
"Mm. I forgive you."
Father yelled:
Father:
"STOP DISCUSSING JAIL IN MY CAR!"
Candy:
"Best episode ever!"
Mochi snuggled closer.
Mochi:
"If I was worm… you carry me in pocket?"
Laddu:
"I'd bury you respectfully."
Mochi:
"WHY BURY ME?!"
Laddu:
"Because worm!"
Mochi hugged him again like a hydraulic press.
Laddu:
"Mochi PLEASE! Not worm strength!"
The car continued through the night 🚗🌙Filled with chaos, laughter, jealousy, worm logic, and one exhausted boy being slowly crushed by love.
