Antara really couldn't believe that so many things happened in this small time... From her blurting everything out to Raghu to getting saved by him... She couldn't believe that she actually told him everything.. And in the end, he came to know her each and every secrets.. There's nothing hidden from him. May Be it was her destiny! God again showed her that who was the right and who was wrong! Antara thanked god for sending him in right time on the spot, for sending him in his life!! They were on the jeep on their way to basti. Strangely, Raghu didn't speak a single word for the whole time and it actually confused her. He seemed lost in some other world. Antara tried to figure out something through his expressions, but guess what? His expressions also weren't letting her detect his feelings. He was just lost. At times he was smiling and at times he was murmuring something. It looked so weird to her.
They at last reached the basti without a single conversation ! "Something was seriously wrong with him. Was he angry with me?" Antara thought ans stepped out of the jeep to find him still in a trance.
"Sorry"Antara said in a low voice. Raghu immediately came out of his trance. Mesmerized by her sweet and gentle apology he smiles. "Koi baat nahi Miss Kaul. Tension nahi lene ka. Woh kya hain na.. Tere liye apun baar baar musibat mein padne ko taiyaar hain . Tujhe bachaana ab apun ka duty hain , aur apun ko sabse zyaada khushi mehsoos hoti hain jab apun teri madad karta hain"Raghu said. Antara smiled at him revealing his thoughts. She was just staring into his deep intense eyes... He too, couldn't help it but get into the eye lock. Something was weird in his body system.. An unknown excitement..everything looked so beautiful all of a sudden... Her words had shaken him so deeply that he started feeling something else for her. He didn't understand what it was but he never ever had the feeling.. "Thank you Raghu"she said with a huge smile. "Bole toh , Mention Not"He said smiling. She then headed towards her house with a big smile on her face..He too headed towards dayamanti bhavan with a huge grin..
LATER:
Raghu banged on his cot situated in his balcony with a huge grin thinking of antara.He ruffled his hair with a smirk.He was wearing a red vest making him look dangerously hot. He was staring at his leather belt and hanky tied on his wrist which hid Antara's symbol of her angel.. He removed it revealing his tatoo remembering her words "Maine bas uska ek tatoo dekha tha".. He smiled thinking that he was her so called angel! He suddenly laughed a bit. What would be her reaction if she came to know that her angel was none other than but his gunda raghu! He sighed deeply all of a sudden. His eyes fell on the mouth organ. With a huge grin he quickly grabbed that and moved out of his balcony . He only played it on two occasions- either when he was too happy or too sad. Now he was overwhelmed! He reached at a far dark corner of basti where a bench was situated under a dim street light. The whole basti was silent and all seemed in their peacefull dream. He sat on the bench and started playing it. The tune of Jee le send its vibrations through the entire basti.
Antara was in deep thoughts lying down on her bed. She didn't know why she couldn't sleep! Tossing from one side to another on the bed, she was thinking about the eventful day. So many things happened in single day. But it was true that after coming in mumbai, she never spend a day which was quite normal! She closed her eyes to get some sleep but at that moment she heard that!! The tune which drove her crazy.!! It made her heart beat increase and she jumped on the bed with wide eyes..She immediately got out of her house and stood on the dark streets of basti. There was no one around in the silent street. Only the mouth organ tune was spreading everywhere. She followed the tune and came at a far corner of basti. She saw a man on a bench at a far distance. His feature was almost covered by dark and the fade street light was not enough to clear his face. "Yeh aadmi mouth organ bajaata hain? I gotta see who he is..'thought Antara. She moved a bit close and saw the light falling only on the guy's wrist revealing a symbol. The symbol which she craved to see. It was a tatoo !! The same tatoo which the guy who saved her dad had. Without wasting a second , she started running towards the guy. But the guy, on hearing her footsteps quickly faded away in the darkness not revealing his identity. "Ruko.. Suno please. Meri baat suniye"she shouted but in vain, he didn't stop..She stood there for another minute and looked for him but this was not the time where she was meant to find him. With a heavy heart, she moved towards her house. While Raghu slowly came out of the dark alley watching her intensely. He watched her till she entered her house and went away... "Toh iska matlab , yeh mere liye itna beichain hain."thought Raghu. "Toh iska matlab, mera angel isi basti mein hain"thought Antara
