Chapter 48

Naina & Adi arrived within some time & were outside checking out the cars which were 2 b taken with them. Sujal & Kashish were with Sur helping her pack as she wanted 2 take all of her toys with her as she didn't want the other toys 2 feel bad while Alek was setting up another surprise 4 Pia. Kripa was in the kitchen putting up the food 2 b taken with them when a pair of strog arms encircled around her waist shocking her but she did'nt need 2 guess those belonged 2 Angad. He had his chin resting on her shoulders while he kissed her cheek…
A: I wanted just the 2 of us to go…
K: so???
A: I don't want company…
K: sorry but v need 2 cheer up Kashish & I am not leaving Sur alone even 4 a sec with that witch Pia after what happened today…
A: don't worry. If Pia tries 2 come near Sur I am not listening 2 u & throwing her out of the house the next instant…
K: & I will not stop u the next time…
A: promise…
K: promise…
A: so u r mine 4 the night & no buts about it…
Kripa starts lauging & Angad lets her go. She places her hand on 1 of his cheeks & kisses the other cheek & says…
K: sorry handsome but the girls r having a pajama party at Kashish's place toinight so hard luck…Mr Khanna…
A: (makes an angry face) u r mean…
K: I know u love me 4 that.
She kisses him on his lips & rushes outside b4 he even has a chance 2 know what has happened…
     All of them r wating near the 2 jeeps which r 2 b taken.
AD: so where r v going???
SU: beach…
Angad lifts Sur up in his arms & says…
A: & what r v going 2 do there??
SU: v wil play in the water, v will make sand castle, v wil ride on the tubes…
KA: & after all that I will take u all on a ride on my boat 2 an island near by…
S: I never knew u had a boat…
K: neither did i…
KA: becoz dad gifted it to me just 2 days ago & I was going 2 tell u guys abt it yesterday after the party but u guys disappeared…btw where did u guys go???
The question itself brought a blush on Kripa's cheeks while a faint smile on Angad's lips.
A: that's a personal matter honey… (trying 2 rush things up)
N: v will see abt that later…
AL: now let's go or v will reach the beach in the hige tide & I don't want that…
     At this point Pia comes 2 them. Seeing Pia, Sur thightens her grip around Angad's neck. Angad's hands have already developed into a fist but Kripa holds his hand & asks him 2 cool down…
P: so seems v all r going out (Kashish gives her a sad nod) gr8… just give me 5 mins I will b ready…
S: execuse me v never invited u…
P: but it is a family picnic so I don't need any invitation…
KA: ves u do as u r not a part of our family. (They all start sittingin the car when Kashish says) I know what u told 2 Sur today…(Pia gupls down) if this is repeated again I swear I will throw u out of the house…
They all were seated in the 2 cars. Car 1 had Angad, Kripa in the front seat while Sur & Naina in the back. Car 2 had Sujal & Kashish in the front seat with Adi & Alek in the back… Angad was leading the way.

SUJAL'S CAR:
S: I think ur plan was successful last night.
The word plan brought the keen ears of Alek & Adi into the conversation of Sujal & Kashish.
AD: what plan??? & that 2 without us…
KA: just listen & then give ur comments… (she tells them what she had done the last night ending with the disappearance of AK) that's y Sujal was saying that my plan was successful the last night…
AL: but how do v confirm it…
S: simple ask them abt it…
KA: (sarcastically) gr8 idea Sujal. I told u u hav no brains…
S: (with same tone) & y is that??
KA: u heard the ans Angad gave me when I asked abt their sudden disappearance… so the ans will not b out so easily…
AD: I have a plan 4 it…
The scene goes mute ending with all of them giving hi-5 2 each other.

ANGAD'S CAR:
Sur was blabbering with Naina in the backseat saying what she was going 2 do in the picnic, also asking her parents approval in between. Naina seemed a bit down as if lost in some other world… Kripa noticed it.
K: is something wrong Naina???
N: I think Huda is in some trouble…
A: WHAT??? Y do u think that??
N: he called up 2 days ago… the usual humor in his voice was missing… he is hiding something…
A: may b he was missing u…
N: he has been away b4 also & for longer duration of time…
K: but this time it is different… b4 he left his girlfriend & now he left behind his fianc…
A: don't worry… I will check his trail & will sort if anything has gone wrong… Happy??
N: thank u…
K: u r not welcome…
N: y???
A: becoz friends don't say sorry or thank u 2 each other…
This brought a smile of Naina's lips.
SU: thank god Naina Aunty smiled… I thought she didn't know 2 smile…
N: oh really…
SU: yes…
N: v shall see…
Naina starts tickling Sur while Sur is laughing & and asking her 2 stop. Seeing the 2 of them smiling AK also smile. Kripa decides 2 put on the radio. When her hand reaches the radio Angad keeps his hand on her hand & guides her hand 2 put on the radio. Kripa's eyes don't leave Angad's face but Angad doesn't even look at her but is grinning a lot.
Angad is changing the gears of the car with 1 hand on the driving wheel while the other still holding Kripa's hand. Sur shouts in Angad's ears & he leaves Kripa's hand as if it was diseased causing Kripa 2 grin this time.
SU: when will v reach there???
A: in an hr princess… & plz don't shout or else I will end up in an accident…
