Ram thinks of her.. He smiles at the thought of the rudhraksh around his neck.. He smiles.. He snaps out of his thought process as Nuts turns around and sticks her tougue out.. She giggle and gives him a flying his.. Ram smiles at his choti.. And murmers a paagal..
The night passes by empty.. There was no sense of presence.. The only thing that he could think of is Priya.. walking on the beach.. her whispers.. Her voice.. Her calmness and her smile.. She had stolen his heart away.. But he didnt know that.. Neither did she.. But did it matter..
He walked to his room after the pompus party was over with.. The glitz and Glamour was over and he didnt even know..What happened in the party? He smiled to himself as he asked himself.. He freshened up and entered his patch green room.. Empty and lifeless.. Though its interiors were fabulous.. He picked up his phone. Without a thought he called Priya..
The phone rang as he waited for her to pick up.. He just wanted to hear to her voice..
He got impatient after two rings..
Finally..
Priya: Mr. Kapoor.. Aap?
There was a smile that curved his lips.. Her voice soothed his mind.. No thoughts.. Just a melody.. He said a Hmm..
Priya: Kya hua? Her vice still calm.. composed.. He relaxed.. All the taxing and irritation from the party vanished.. He walked to his balcony.. Which was open.. He looked handsome in the white kurtha.. He stood holding the hand rest of the railing and closed his eyes.. as he said.. Kuch nahi..
Priya on the other hand was standing in her balcony.. wearing a simple creme saree.. her hair playing with the wind.. She shut her eyes and smiled.. She reacted to the cold wind that blew by her face by tilting her head and smiling.. Her long hair silky and smooth.. blew back.. and the moon light hit her face..
Priya: Aapne phone kiya itna raath gair..
Ram smiled in wonder.. He didnt want to answer practically.. He just wasnt in his sense.. No thought No lies.. Just what he felt.. He said.. Aapki awaaz sunna chahtha tha..
Priya opened her eyes and looked at the moon.. She smiled.. Mr. Kapoor.. Aap yeh chaand dekhrahe hai?
Ram opened his eyes and looked at the m oon.. He said.. Haan bohoth sundar hai..
Priya smiled.. Aap iss chand ki tarah hai Mr.Kapoor..
Ram smiled. He was lost in his thought and spoke his heart out.. Daag kayi hote hai.. Par in ankhon ko dikhaayi nahi deta..
Priya smiles.. Par Mr. Kapoor.. Chaand phir bhi bohot khubsoorat hai..
Ram smiles.. They both stand in silence as the enjoy the cool breze and the moon light..
Priya: Good night Mr. Kapoor..
Ram smiles.. Good night Ms.Sharma..
Priya smiles..
Ek apnapan tha.. Ek sukoon tha.. Uss raath ne kuch khoya tha.. Aur kuch paaliya.. Kisi ne kuch nahi kaha.. Kisi ne kuch nahi suna.. Phir bhi.. Dil ne samaj liya tha.. Ki ek atot risha judgaya.. Benaam Rishatha..
