章節 41: Auntie mummy 2
Yougal felt a headache coming even to imagine that that woman could suddenly occupy such a place in his little girl's life. When he returned home from his trip he had to be with his grandma. After he had found out that Yana was not at home and asked about her whereabouts, he was told she was with Nicholas' mom.
The first day she came back home, Yana told him her auntie mummy was the best mummy. A tired Yougal Lucas did not think much of it. While grandma was at the hospital, he did not have enough time to pay attention to her occasionally voiced strange demand as he thought it was her imagination. Afterwards he thought of rising to the occasion and talk to her about a mummy. But she even rejected his lucrative offer of a mummy, brother and sister.
But after grandma came back from hospital he realized that what he had considered as a child's imagination might be a real problem for him. His little angel had not been creating something in her mind. She seemed to have a real person in mind when talking about auntie mummy. A phone call from her school proved his doubt to be a fact.
Yana had been asking something which was beyond his understanding and capacity. He, Yougal Lucas Sinha could buy her the costliest toy but an auntie mummy, what's in god's name was that? Nia, the mummy he wanted her to have, could not be brought home as per their wishes.
After a month of grandma's discharge from the hospital this weird demand of her grew more intense, ending in a deadlock between the father daughter duo. That thing started with that phone call from Yana's school asking Yougal to meet the principal. Though he initially did not pay attention to her whining about an auntie mummy, he was stunned to learn that his daughter had fought in the class for that very strange reason.
Yougal Lucas Sinha learned from her class teacher and the principal that she threw punches and kicked a few of her classmates when they refused to believe that she had a mummy whom she called auntie mummy and mocked her as liar. The other students' parents were complaining about their children being bullied by Yana. He asked her and she told him in clear term that she wanted him to bring auntie mummy home.
He tried asking his grandma for some clues but that lady had been acting strange too ever since she came home. He at first thought that it was the effect of the illness but he soon understood that something was not so correct with his grandma and his daughter. He at first thought that it was Ahana, Yana's aunt but why she would suddenly start calling Ahana auntie mummy. Yana was never even close to Ahana.
"Sweetheart, have you seen this auntie mummy in your dream? Is she a fairy who has come to dream?"
"Papa, you are so childish. How can anyone want someone who exists only in dream? I want auntie mummy. She is real."
His grandma giggled like a girl at how Yougal was chided by his five years old daughter.
'Wow! Yougal Lucas, that's great. You are called childish by a five years old.' He mentally taunted himself. He looked with hope at his grandma but she pretended not to notice his puppy eyes after having her fun at his expense. 'Fine, These two won't give me peace. Grandma won't help me.'
"Okay, I'll give a call to your aunt." Yougal Lucas thought that the problem was solved, only he would never allow Yana to call Ahana as her mummy.
Yana was overjoyed and left her chair at the breakfast table, to hug and kiss her dear papa. Yougal was relieved but he noticed that grandma looked skeptical and gave a cheeky smile, before hiding it by covering her mouth with a hand on the pretext of coughing. He looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"But Yana sweetie, you can't call her mummy." He had that post reserved for Nia.
"Bad bad papa. She's my auntie mummy." Yana jumped down from his lap, crying. She ran out of the dining room. The nanny ran after her.
He looked helplessly at his grandma who was suddenly interested in the bowl of soup. "I won't let my daughter to call Ahana auntie mummy, whatever that is supposed to mean." His voice was full of irritation. "Even you don't like that woman. How come Yana is calling her with this strange term?"
"Who has told you that Ahana is Yana's auntie mummy? That trash is not even worth to be called auntie." Grandma said contemptuously. She seemed disappointed at his poor judgment. He should not have even connected a person like Ahana to such sweet thing as Yana and a mummy.
"She is not? Then who?" There was a mixture of both relief and curiosity in his tone now.
