Chapter 14
"That's right, brother. You should've told us about that. Do you really hate us that much? Not even sharing such a piece of good news!" Rajat sighed sadly.
"Big brother, is there going to be a dinner out today? After all, you have won such a huge amount." Kavita asked.
"Big brother, it's been a really long time since our family sat down together and had a happy meal. What do you say? Let's eat outside tonight?" Neetu said with greed in her eyes.

Of course, Arjun and Savitri could see the hungry gazes of his brother and sisters and he knew exactly why they had come here today. They came here to ask for the money they had given him for the treatment of their father's lung cancer. Although they had been giving them back a bit by bit but now that they know that they had money, they are here to get the full amount.
The problem here was not that Arjun didn't want to give their money back. The real problem was that these ungrateful, unfilial, brother and sisters of his are asking for the money with interest. 3 years ago, they had given a total amount of Rs 40,000 altogether. But now, they were asking for Rs 60,000. This was just daylight robbery. Rs 60,000 was
Savitri just stood up and asked, "How about a tea first? I am going to make tea for everyone and then we would talk about the dinner."
Then, she went to the kitchen and started preparing tea. At this time, Saksham was sitting in his room watching everything happening in the hall. So, his powers did work and his 'relatives' did come to their house. But this 'relative' was not much welcomed by Saksham. Although he had known from small that his uncle and aunts were a miser but he truly understood that when his grandfather was suffering from lung cancer. These unfilial and ungrateful people didn't even want to get their own father treated. They didn't want to give money as they knew that it would definitely go to waste. The one who had raised from small to an adult, satisfied their every need, loved them from the bottom of his heart, these monsters just abandoned him without even looking back.
Even on his deathbed, his grandfather didn't hate his own children for their behavior. That's how much he used to love them but how would these evil creatures understand this. The only thing they wors.h.i.+p was money.
Just seeing them, makes Saksham angry. If they were not his uncle and aunts, he definitely would have punched them in their faces.
Soon, Savitri came out of the kitchen with 6 cup of tea. She gently put the tray on the table and handed a cup of tea to Arjun and then took one for herself. As she was about to drink it, an unpleasant sound rang in her ears, "Sister-in-law, why did you just put it there? Please hand us the cups too."
Savitri's hand trembled a little, almost spilling the tea. Savitri somehow controlled her anger and looked at the laid back figures of her husband's brothers and sisters. The teacup was not even out of their hand's reach. If they just stretched out their hands, they would easily reach it. But no! They want someone to hand it to them.
Hearing this even angered Arjun. He almost stood up and threw the cup in his hands towards their faces but, Savitri held him down. Not understanding why she would do that, he looked at her with a questing gaze. Savitri just shook her head and said, "look at me, I just forgot about that."
Then she took the cup and as she was about to hand it to Akash, a hand stopped her. It was none other than Saksham's hand. Not knowing when he had stood beside her and was looking at his uncle and aunts with red eyes.
