Love You Foreverrrrrr………Part 2

 

RECAP: Seher talks it out to her grandma regarding the issue of her shifting to the city.  She decides to meet Naina, her best friend before going but……

 

Seher decided to meet Naina before going but as she stepped foreward towards the door; she stops……………………

"Papa!!!!" Seher goes foreward and hugs her father and Chottu runs out to inform Naina. "I'm here my angel", he goes to his mother and touches her feet, "How are you mummyji?" "I'm fine! All the packing has been done and Seher is also ready, right Seher?" "(With a fake smile) Ye…ye…yes daadi (With eyes full of tears) I'll just be back papa." She runs to her room, locks herself and is crying bitterly, "Why I have to leave this place! Why I have to go away from daadi? I'm so happy here!!!!! Please god; do something!!!" Just then a few sparrows come and sit on the window of Seher's room. "So you all are also here to see me off right? How will I live without you all, now who will……" Just then there is a knock at her door. "Seher beta hurry-up, we'll miss the flight otherwise", said her dad. "Just a minute papa, I'm coming." She taker her dupatta and opens the door. "Here comes my princess, (showing her the way) shall we?", asked her father. Seher didn't want to answer, but said, "Hmmmm…"

Her father could not understand her silent disapproval but her grandma could make out from her face that the decision of leaving Nainitaal came out of her with laboured ease.

"Grandma, I'll miss you a lot (Hugs her) you please take good care of yourself and take your medicines on time and……" Seher went on, saying as well as crying. "I'll beta! You just take care of your self and my blessings are always with you" And Seher leaves with their last sign of contact i.e. the kiss that grandma gave her on her forehead. Just then Naina came running there.

Meet Naina; Naina Kapoor (Jennifer Winget), Seher's beat friend and an orphan. To her, Seher and daadi were only her family, and now with Seher going, she was really upset.

"Seher! You are going? You didn't even tell me about it!!", questioned Naina. Seher was unanswerable, "I didn't know how to tell you Naina, and I didn't want to hurt you." "But you've already hurted me naa! You can't go like this! You promised that this year we'd go skiing together!", reminded Naina. "I'm sorry Naina but I have to go!" Seher isn't able to face her questions anymore and runs to her papa saying, "Let's go papa before I revert my decision."

Naina is shattered and hugs grandma, "Daadi! Why always I lose the persons I love the most?" Daadi is unable to answer Naina but still pacifies her against circumstances.

 

 

 

 

 

Mumbai……………a city where everyone expects, some suspect, most neglect and therefore only a few GET. Get what? Get their dreams fulfilled. Yes, most of the people come to Mumbai praising it, stay here grumbling over it and leave the city abusing it. Though it is of no use but it is really a good way to satisfy one's own self, is it??? Well it depends, only those get satisfied who can lie to themselves.

Meet Mr. Pratham Sinha (Hiten Tejwani). Please don't go by his name as he is always the last one to get as well as to loose. Jokes apart, his life is a perfect example of what we call a MESS. He wanted to be a pilot; but couldn't afford it, then he decided to try his hand at acting; was not able to make it, then he ventured into business; just to incur waiting losses………………………and the endless list goes on. But, at present he is working as a teacher………Yes!! As a TEACHER at St. Stephen's School. Do you know where anger, aggressiveness, irritation etc. live? It's at Mr. Sinha's nose!!! Don't believe me????? Ok, look ahead……

"Sir I've completed my notes and yesterday only I submitted my notebook to you with the rest of the class", said a class tenth student. "Oh yes I remember Himanshu dear that yesterday I forgot my lunch at home and ate up your notebook instead.", said Pratham Sir sarcastically. Himanshu explained, "Sir I'm not saying this." "All right then young man, you mean that I even have hearing problems?" "Sir but I submitted……" "I don't wanna hear anything, today you'll stay back after school hours, complete your work and then go after submitting your notebook to me. That's it!!!" , saying this, Pratham Sir left for his class saying to himself, "Students are not at all serious regarding their studies these days…" Just then while crossing the corridor; he banged into Mrs. Gupta, the Chemistry teacher. "Ouch! Mr. Sinha, be careful." "Look Ms. Gupta……", ordered Pratham. "Oh ho! Mr. Sinha, why are you so irritated every time? I have something for you." "Out with it!", demanded Pratham. "Here it is, one of the notebooks of your subject mixed up with mine; some Himanshu Nair of class X-A."

Though Pratham felt bad at heart for scolding that child but that is how his nature was, far too aggressive!

By the way, meet Srishti Gupta (Kulraj Randhawa). An independent lady, a widow and a proud single mother of a six years old angel. Though her life always offers her thorns, she prefers to accept the tiny flowers in them. A perfect woman is what I call her. You'll know her better in the following lines.

"You know what Mr. Sinha, down at the reception; interviews are going on for the employment of some new teachers. Even a new chemistry teacher is finalized I heard!", informed Srishti. Pratham didn't seem to have time to pay attention so left for his lecture saying a plain ok. "Nothing can be expected out of Mr. Pratham Sinha!!!!"

 

 

 

"So Mr. Malhotra, St. Stephen's welcomes you to its faculty." The principal shakes hands with the person and welcomes him. "The pleasure is all mine Sir!!!" Those eyes turned with a determination to add to the pride of this institution. They had the conviction to either make it or break it!!

Meet Raj Malhotra (Rajeev Khandelwal). A suave personality with an accent to kill. Raj Malhotra is imprinting on minds…………A hard-core optimist; living independently in Mumbai with his parents staying at Samarpur; a small town near Nainitaal. A strong believer in love…………wants to get nothing more than work satisfaction. Let's see if he can do wonders in the next part.

 

 

PRECAP: "Hi! I'm Raj Malhotra, new amongst you but not new to this profession." said the new entrant in the faculty. "You're most welcome Mr. Malhotra.", obliged Srishti. "No! You'll not be so easily welcomed Mr. Malhotra!!!"
