"Tomorrow."
That single word floated in the room like a lazy cloud. ☁️
Mochi crossed her arms.
Mochi:
"We should start today."
Laddu was already settled on the sofa like a retired king. 👑
Eyes closed.
Breathing slow.
Soul fully relaxed.
Laddu:
"Tomorrow."
Mochi frowned.
Mochi:
"Why tomorrow?"
Laddu shifted closer without opening his eyes, sliding into comfort like it was a personal skill.
Then he lifted his head just enough to—
💋
A soft kiss on her cheek.
Casual.
Illegal.
Deadly.
Mochi froze. 🧍♀️
Laddu smiled lazily.
Laddu:
"See? Comfortable."
Candy screamed and covered her eyes with both hands. 🙈
Candy:
"TOO MUCH ROMANCE IN MORNING!"
Mochi grabbed her phone immediately. 📱🔥
📞 KOMAL CALL — EMERGENCY LEVEL
Komal picked up instantly.
Komal:
"Tell me."
Mochi:
"He doesn't want to learn driving today."
There was a pause.
A deep, disappointed pause. 😮💨
Komal:
"Don't do that."
Mochi blinked.
Mochi:
"Do what?"
Komal's voice sharpened.
Komal:
"Delay."
Mochi straightened.
Komal continued, now serious.
Komal:
"He's already spoiled."
Mochi:
"…Spoiled?"
Komal didn't hesitate.
Komal:
"In college, I handled everything.
School papers.
Bank work.
Forms.
Life admin."
Mochi's eyes widened. 😳
Komal:
"Mother spoiled him.
I spoiled him.
Now you're starting."
Mochi looked at Laddu.
Still relaxed.
Still comfortable.
Still not moving an inch. 😌
Komal's tone hardened.
Komal:
"If you let him delay,
he'll never move."
Mochi swallowed.
Mochi:
"…Maybe tomorrow?"
Komal:
"No."
Firm.
Final. ❌
Komal:
"Not tomorrow.
He's spoiled enough."
The call ended. 📵
Mochi stared at the phone.
Then at Laddu.
Then at destiny.
🧍 THE CONFRONTATION
Mochi walked back to the sofa.
Mochi:
"We're going to learn driving."
Laddu opened one eye. 👁️
Laddu:
"No."
Mochi blinked.
Mochi:
"…No?"
Laddu sat up slightly.
Laddu:
"I don't want to."
Mochi stared.
Long.
Silent.
Deadly. 😐
Suddenly—
Laddu stood up.
Laddu:
"I'm going to the bathroom."
And just like that—
💨
He escaped.
🏠 MOCHI TELLS THE FAMILY
Mochi turned around.
Father looked up.
Father:
"What happened?"
Mochi inhaled.
Mochi:
"Komal said he's spoiled."
Candy gasped dramatically. 😱
Candy:
"BIG BROTHER SPOILED?!"
Mother nodded slowly.
Mother:
"…That's true."
Father blinked.
Father:
"It is?"
Mother sighed.
Mother:
"He was always taken care of."
Candy tilted her head.
Candy:
"So big brother is rich baby?"
Father frowned.
Father:
"He runs companies but not forms?"
Mother smiled helplessly.
Mother:
"Yes."
Mochi looked toward the bathroom door.
Mochi:
"I don't want him to stay like this."
Mother met her eyes.
Mother:
"Then don't let him."
Candy raised her tiny fist. ✊
Candy:
"BIG SISTER FIX HIM!"
Father nodded.
Father:
"Teach him."
Mother added softly:
Mother:
"Not because he can't.
Because no one ever made him."
🚪 THE BATHROOM DOOR OPENS
Click.
Laddu stepped out, suspicious eyes scanning the room. 👀
Laddu:
"…Why do I feel like I'm being discussed?"
Mochi crossed her arms.
Mochi:
"You are."
Laddu sighed.
Laddu:
"This sounds dangerous."
Mochi walked toward him.
Mochi:
"Shoes."
Laddu:
"…Why?"
Mochi:
"Driving lesson."
Laddu looked at her.
At the family.
At the united front. 🤝
He smiled faintly.
Laddu:
"…I hate all of you."
Candy clapped wildly. 👏👏
Candy:
"SUCCESS!"
And just like that—
❌ "Tomorrow" was officially cancelled.
🛑 "Before That… I Want to Confess Something"
Laddu suddenly raised one hand. ✋
Laddu:
"Wait."
Everyone froze.
Candy stopped mid-jump.
Father sat up straight.
Mother narrowed her eyes like danger radar activated. 🚨
Mochi:
"…What now?"
Laddu cleared his throat.
Laddu:
"Before we go for driving lessons…
I want to confess something."
The room went dead silent. 😶
Candy gasped.
Candy:
"CONFESSION?!"
Father:
"This sounds serious."
Mother crossed her arms.
Mother:
"Go on, son."
Laddu looked at Mochi.
Laddu:
"Sit."
Mochi hesitated.
Mochi:
"…Why?"
Laddu smiled innocently.
Laddu:
"Trust me."
She sat.
Before anyone could react—
Laddu gently sat down on her lap, wrapped an arm around her, and hugged her like it was the most natural thing in the universe. 🫂
Candy screamed. 😵
Candy:
"BIG BROTHER USING CHEAT CODE!"
Father nearly stood up.
Father:
"HEY—!"
Mother raised her hand.
Mother:
"Let him talk."
Laddu hugged Mochi tighter, resting his head on her shoulder.
Laddu (soft):
"Tomorrow. I promise."
Mochi stiffened.
Mochi:
"No."
Laddu lifted his head.
Laddu:
"No?"
Mochi:
"No tomorrow."
Laddu nodded slowly.
Then—
💋
A kiss on her cheek.
Mochi blinked.
💋
Another.
Candy covered her eyes again.
Candy:
"I AM TOO YOUNG FOR THIS!"
Father looked away.
Father:
"I will pretend I am blind."
Mother was smiling. 😌
Mochi tried to stay serious.
Mochi:
"…Stop."
Laddu didn't.
💋💋
Quick.
Gentle.
Shameless.
Laddu (between kisses):
"Tomorrow?"
Mochi turned her face away.
Laddu leaned in.
💋
Mochi:
"…You are impossible."
Laddu:
"So… tomorrow?"
She tried to resist.
Failed. 😮💨
Mochi:
"…Tomorrow."
Laddu stopped instantly.
Like a switch flipped. ⚡
He hugged her once more and relaxed completely.
Laddu:
"Confession complete."
Candy jumped.
Candy:
"HE WON!"
Father shook his head.
Father:
"This man negotiates like a criminal."
Mother laughed softly.
Mother:
"He learned early."
Mochi sighed, one hand resting on his back.
Mochi:
"You manipulated me."
Laddu smiled with eyes closed.
Laddu:
"No.
I trusted you."
She didn't argue.
She let him stay there.
And for the first time—
No one interrupted.
Because somehow…
This chaos felt peaceful. 💞
