Ram- you're smart na.. iss liye tumse pucha.. medicine on the way hai.. tab tak bathroom me baithi rahe.. Mera dimag khaane bahar mat aa..

Priya- you beast..

Ram- you witch..

Priya came out from bathroom, taking her medicine, Ram kept that medicine on table..

Priya- itne jaldi medicine kaise aaye..

Ram rubbed his palms with each other, yawing so hard & say- abhi mujhe nind aa rahi hai, soone jaa raha hun.. don't disturb my sleep till evening..

Priya- I'm asking you something..

Ram again yawing- Mai tumhare kisi bhi sawal ka jawab dena jaruri nahi samjhta.. & he went in bedroom..

Priya didn't understand.. she bit confused...

One fine day, Ram back from office early, Priya sit in bedroom, she heard main door sound, she peep out side from bedroom & came out from room- Kapoor good evening, aaj bada jaldi aaya..

Ram remove his shoes & only nodded..

Priya- Kapoor iss Sunday tu kya kar raha hai..

Ram open his shirt's arm button & fold till near elbows- kiu..

Priya- baata na..

Ram open tie knot & say- pura din soone wala hun..

Priya- lazy monster..

Ram- I'm tired today, so.. no fighting..

Priya- Rajat aane wala hai, mujhse milne.. usse tere Ghar ka address diya hai..

Ram less interested to listen her babbling, & he lying on sofa, turn his face, show his back to Priya..

Priya feel bad for his action- so rude Ram..

Ram didn't say word, Priya turn to go, Ram's cell beep, she pick his cell from table, open message of Vikram, she read the message, 'take care Ram, I'll handle everything, you take a rest'

Priya in mind- he not feel well.. or anything else happens..

She check him, if he sleep or not.. she confirm that he deep in sleep, she open his bag, found doctor's prescription.. she start searching for medicine pack, but there are no pack..

Priya in mind- so careless person he is!! Kitchen ko jaara sa kuch ho jaaye toh pura Ghar Saar par lekar nachta hai.. khud bimar pada hai toh dawai nahi laa sakta.. & she went in bedroom, pull out his one of the jacket, she hide her face under in cap.. came out from flat with her credit card.. buy medicine for him & again came to flat with bread pack..

Couple of minutes later..

Priya- aye Kapoor uth..

No reply from him..

Priya stood near him, touch his arm & call him- Kapoor uth..

Ram open his eyes & irritatingly turn his face to her, he wants to open his mouth but she not allowed him..

Priya- uth, kuch khaa aur medicine le..

Ram didn't hear her properly & say- sorry I can't make dinner for today.. plz you manage with milk & have some fruits..

Priya- kaan khule kar aur sunn meri baat, uth aur bread ko butter aur jam lagaya hai, woh khaa le..

Ram still lying on a sofa & he ask her in confused tone- bread toh subhe khatam huye the naa, toh kaha se aaye..

Priya- jaadu se aaye.. ab uth.. aur khaa le..

Ram sit on sofa, look medicine pack near plate of bread, butter, jam- aur yeh medicine!! Sharma kaha se aaya yeh sab..

Priya- Mai lekar aayi hun..

Ram little shout on her- tu pagal hai.. ek toh tu khud ki Shaadi se bhaagi hai.. aur mere Ghar aayi.. Meri aadhi life jhand kar di hai tune.. ab toh Puri life jhand kar ke aayi hai.. ab toh start up bhi khatam.. tune Jo kaha wahi kar diya.. & he grab medicine pack in his hand, throw it on floor, went in balcony, & lite his cigarette..

Priya went near balcony, stood behind him & said- tujhe se jaada mai aapni life se pyar karti hun, tu aur tera start up mere liye kuch bhi nahi hai.. aur rahi baat, logo ne mujhe dekh liya hoga, toh baata deti hun, aaj kal kisi ke paas itna time nahi hota hai.. tere jacket ki wajah se kis ne bhi mujhe nahi dekha.. I hide my face under cap.. relax.. mujhe meri life jhand nahi karni hai.. waha par bread, butter, jam pada hai, khaa le aur Jo medicine lekar aayi hun, usski baith kar Pooja kar.. & she went in bedroom..

Ram realise his mistake, he slapped himself mentally, went near table, pick all medicine from floor, & kept it on table.. he feel bad on his own behavior.. he knocked bedroom door..

Ram- Sharma darwaja khool..

Priya hear him, but she ignore him..

Ram- Sharma darwaja khool.. baat karni hai tujhse..

Priya still behave same..

Ram in mind- yeh pagal kuch kar na de aapne saath, if she cut her pulse.. then.. oh shit!!

Ram- Sharma plz open the door.. look.. I'm..

Priya quitely listen him..

Ram- look.. I'm so sorry.. plz open the door.. bukhar ki wajah se.. I shouted on you.. I'm so sorry.. plz bahar aa jaa.. dekh tu jaan mat de.. I'm saying sorry to you..

Priya disbelief on his words & she can't hear him anymore, she open the door, started glare to him..

Ram take a relief breath- thank to god, you open the door..

Priya- you're disgusting..

Ram- I know.. Mai yeh soch kar pareshan ho gaya tha.. kahi tu pulse cut naa kar de.. aisa agar tu karti, toh mere bedsheets aur bedroom kharab ho jaate.. agar tera aisa koi plan hai toh mujhe baata de.. I'll give you best knife for cut the pulse.. aur ek baat yaad rakhna, agar by chance, tune pulse cut kar di, toh aapna haath balcony se bahar nikal dena.. issye kya hoga, Mera bedroom tere khoon se kharab nahi hoga.. aur haan ek cut se kuch nahi hoga.. 4-5 cut laga dena aapne haath par.. agar issye bhi kuch nahi hua toh.. Mai hun.. I'll push you from balcony.. tab toh tu pakka Marr jaayegi..

Priya- Teri choti si baat ke liye Mai aapni jaan du.. maare mere dushman, aur unn dushman me tumhara naam sab se upar hai.. monster..

Ram mimic her..

Priya slapped him so hard on his arm..

Ram- you witch.. & he grabbed her hairs in his hands, & started pull..

Priya- you monster leave my hairs..

Ram- nahi chodunga.. & he tight his hands grips on hairs, pull so hard..

Priya wincing in pain, she grab something in her hand & hit on Ram's hand, Ram quickly leaves her hairs, he wincing in pain & now Priya's turn, she pull his hairs, she tight her grips on his hairs, Ram wincing in pain..

Priya- now you paining so hell.. teri naani naa yaad dilayi toh Mera naam bhi Priya Sharma nahi..

Ram- ok & he hold her both arms, tight in his hands, Priya leave his hairs & hold his shirt in her fist, Ram pinned her in wall..

Priya- leave my arms..

Ram- leave my shirt..

Priya- no first you leave..

Ram- dekh Mai bimar hun, tu chod pehle..

Priya- I'm girl, so you leave me first.. & they both came in hall..

Ram- ok, we both leave each other at a same time..

Priya- ok, one..

Ram- two..

Both together- three, they both leave each other, sit on sofa..

They both give irritated look to each other & started laughing..

Priya- after college, I fight with you like these..

Ram- iss fight me, woh wali baat nahi thi.. & he pick one slice of bread butter jam, take one bite..

Priya also pick one, take a bite- Matlab..

Ram- you didn't bite on my arm, issliye..

Priya- you are tasteless person.. toh kiu kaatu.. & I'm not that much hungry to bite you..

Ram look her- yeh Jo koi Rajat naam ka janwar hai, Jo teri jaisi zombie ko mila hai.. waise mila kaha..

Priya- kiu baatau tujhe..

Ram- acche se baat karu toh tujhe problem hai.. naa karu toh problem hai..

Priya- janwar.. zombie.. yeh acche se baat, aisi hoti hai acche se baat..

Ram- dekh aaj tak sidhe tarike se tujhse baat nahi ki hai.. kab ki bhi hogi toh mujhe yaad nahi.. iss liye jitna baat karta hun, wahi kafi hai..

Priya look him & asked- Krishna maa thi, tab tak tu bahot acche se baat karta tha.. woh jaane ke baad aisa kya hua, Jo tu itna baddl gaya..

Ram- uth yaha se.. uth.. with irritating tone..

Priya- what happened to you suddenly.. sometime ago you talk with me good & suddenly you.. you're just pathetic..

Ram- mujhe soona hai..

Priya- dawai lekar Soo jaa, jaada hero mat bann, & she went in kitchen, clean the plate.. kept in dish drawer.. & she open another drawer for kept spoon in that, a one trash paper she found out in that.. she pick up, open, a little messy but she can read that, someone's handwriting.. she look Ram's to-do-list handwriting, same handwriting on that paper..

Priya read Ram's trash to-do-list..

1 maa's treatment..

2 job in top MNC..

3 one small house like, 3 BHK..

4 my love..

5 marry with my love..

6 a long road trip with my family...

7 bike- Royal Enfield & long bike ride with my love at leh ladakh..

Priya in mind- yeh hai real to-do-list, kiu behave kar raha hai aisa.. Jo nahi hai waisa dikha raha hai khud ko.. aisa kya hua hai, Jo Ram itna baddl gaya hai.. we fight in college days, but after Krishna maa's death, he change a lot.. why he change.. aur yeh change sirf meri taraf hai.. aisa kya kiya hai maine.. kuch puchne jaati hun toh, he started barking.. Priya tu bhi kuch kum nahi hai.. you also react same with him.. jaane de.. waise bhi Rajat ke saath ek saal baad jaana hai tujhe.. 9 months remain.. & she again kept that paper in drawer, came out from kitchen, went near sofa, look Ram in deep sleep & she look one thank you note stick on table, she smile & went in room..
