Next morning Antara woke up first and find herself sleeping next to Raghu. A beautiful smile spread over her lips, to see Raghu sleeping so innocently. She always used to fight with him a lot, but last night convo made him realise that she trusted him alot. Raghu looked like a kid sleeping so peacefully. She remember how last night she was feeling cold and Raghu wrapped her up in his strong arms to give her some warmth, that thought made her blush and hurriedly she woke up from the bed. She covered him properly and left towards the bathroom to have shower leaving her cellphone behind. Raghu was sleeping when antara's phone rang and broke his sleep. Raghu opened his eyes in irritation and saw Antara's mobile ringing. He woke up and was searching for Antara, but she was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, then he heard Antara humming in the shower, "Dekho zara is yedi ko subha subha bhi gana ga rehe hai, khud to maze se uth key nahane chali gaye or yeh musibat uske mobile ne ap ki neend tor dali kaisa mast sapna dekh raha tha".
He called her name,"Miss Kaul yeh tera baj raha hai mera matlab tera phone baj raha hai." He was still in a sleeping state. Hearing Raghu's voice she stopped and listen what he was saying then she realized her cell phone was outside. She totally forgot that her mom and dad will call her to wish her today. "Raghu tum khud hi dekh lo nah please." She informed him and continued with her shower.
Raghu took the phone and saw Dr. kaul's name flashing on the screen. He answered the phone, "Hello uncle ji, hello uncle ji apki awaz nahi arehe." Kashmir mein bhi network problem hota hai, apun ko to laga sirf apun ke Mumbai mein hi yeh problem hai." He was cont saying hello hello but couldn't listen properly due to network problem, so he came out from room and moved at the balcony. "Hello uncle ji, han ab aeye apki awaz."
"Arey Raghu kaise hoon or Antara ka phone tumhare pass?"
"Woh kya hai nah uncle Miss Kaul naha reyli hai or uska phone bahar para tha to apun ne utha liya."
"Acha acha Raghu zara Antara aeye to usse kehna uske mummy papa ney phone kiya tha usse wish karne key liye."
"Wish?? wish per kyun uncle ji??"
"Arey beta tumhe nahi pata aj Antara ka Birthday hai."
"Kya??" He was so shocked to hear that today was his MissKaul's birthday. Suddenly then Raghu remembered that she was asking about the date last evening and her blush. He understood everything.
"Arey Raghu hello Raghu??"
"Jee uncle ap tension mat lo nein yedi ko mera matlab Antara ko bata doonga key apka phone aaya tha."
"Theek hai apna dheyaan rakhna or Antara ka bhi rakhta hoon or ussd kehna hamein dobara phone kare."
Antara was done with the shower when she saw that she forgot her clothes outside.
"Ohh God mein kapre bahar kaise bhool gaye, Raghu tu kamre mein hi hai kaise bahar jao leyne, nahi nahi mein aise halaat mein bahar nahi ja sakty Raghu se hi kehty hoon."
She was shivering only with the thought that she has to ask Raghu to give her clothes, but she had to say otherwise Antara ki kulfi ban jaty.
"Raghu, raghu meri baat suno."
She called out his name, but he didn't respond her. She open the door a little bit to see if raghu was there or not. To her amusement she didn't find Raghu in the room and decided to go out and quickly pick her clothes. She quietly walked out in her towel and starts digging inside her bag for her clothes. "Ohh God mere pass to koi acha dress bhi nahi ab mein kya pehno??"
She was so lost in her thoughts that she forgot Raghu was also in the same boathouse. After a lot of confusion she finally found a dress and was about to move towards the bathroom but she found Raghu staring at her. She found that moment so shocking for her, she was only in the towel and infront of Raghu who was standing dumbstruck. On the other hand, Raghu was staring at her without blinking his eyes, she was so beautiful, he thought. Her wet long hair, water drops falling on her shoulders enhancing her beauty more. Embarrassed Antara tried to cover herself and Raghu saw a sudden change in her facial expressions which clearly shows that she was embarrassed and he quickly turned around indicating her to go. She closed the door loudly which made Raghu realize that she was not in the room anymore. Both had no idea what just happened a moment ago. Antara ran in the washroom and quickly dressed up and comes out wearing a beautiful green salwar which looked so perfect on her.
She found Raghu standing on the same spot like a statue. "Rrr. Raghu w.woh tum nahaa. . lo mein.. breakfast banaaa leytyyy hooon. " she said while stammering.
Raghu nodded and left to take shower. After shower Raghu came out to see Antara sitting in the table and everything is ready to eat. Raghu found Antara lost in her thoughts, but his expressions changed because Antara was dressed up like she is going on a date with her boyfriend. Iss yedi ko kya hogaya aise kyun bethy hoon, then he remembered Antara in a towel and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Yedi, kaha kho gaye??" which broke Antara's trance. "Wohh.h kuch nahi, tum betho breakfast ready hai."
They both ate together, but didn't dare to see each other or talk a little bit.
Antara got busy in cleaning, on the other hand Raghu was standing near the window to enjoy the beautiful view of Dal lake. "Aj iss yedi ka janamdin hai os isne myjhe bataya bhi nahi he thought. Arey koi apna janamdin samne se thori nah batata hai he thought again.
Moments passed but both remained in the silent mode, aj to dono key muh mein dahi jam gaye thy.
After a lot of awkward moments Raghu got back to normal and decided to talk to her. He moved near the kitchen and spoke, "Miss Kaul yeh tu aj ek dum nayi naweli tubight ki tarha kyun chamak rehe hai, chamak to chor tayar to aise howe hai jaise Varun Dhawan key saath bahar ghumne ja rehe hai.
"Raghu" she only managed to speak that.
"Kya Raghu han bata tu sahi kahi tune Varun ko bhi Kashmir to nahi bula liya??" He said in a teasing tone.
"Tumhe usse kya mein Varun ko bulao ya Ranbir Kapoor ko." She said in an irritated voice.
"Acha acha ab samaj gaya to tu aj woh bole to kya kehty hai jab larka larki ghumne jaty hai han bole to date pe ja rehe hai kye tere boyfridnd key sath?" "Raghu" she screamed his name again.
"Bakri ki tarha kya mein mein kar rehe hai, mera matlab hai kya Raghu raghu kar rehe hai bol nah, bata tera koi boyfriend hai kya?? Arey apun ko bhi milna hai, bile to dekho to sahi kiski kismat phooti jo tere saath." He started laughing hard which made Antara go mad.
"Raghu nahi mera koi biyfriend hai or nahi kabhi hogi. mein kisi key sath bahar ja rehe hoon samjhe tum."
Raghu smirked.
"Acha to phir aise kyun tayar hai??"
"Kuch nahi bus aise hi." She wanted to end this topic because she don't want to fight with him atleast not today.
"Raghu woh.."
"Kya raghu raghu raghu lagta hai mera naam tujhe bohat pasand agaya hai??"
"Meri baat to suno!"
"Sun hi to raha hoon subha se Raghu key ilawa kuch or bol bhi kaha rehe hai tu??"
"Sorry, woh mein shivji key mandir ja rehe hoon unka aashirwad leyne."
"Kya bat hai aj achanak tujhe shivji ka aashirwad chaheye??" Raghu said in a teasing tone.
"Tumse matlab?"
"Matlab kyun nahi apun yaha tere sath aaya hai to pura haq hai janne ka, but yeh to bata aj hi kyun tujhe shivji key mandir mein jsna hai."
"Mandir jane key liye kisi occasion ki zaroorat nahi hai woh to bus mera dil horaha hai issi liye meine bola."
She didn't tell him about her birthday, but she had no idea that he already kneew that it was her birthday.
"Theek hai chal to mein bhi chalta hoon."
"Kya tum bhi?"
"Han kyun shivji ka aashirwad sirf Kashmir walo ko mil sakta hai hum mumbai walo ko nahi?"
"Tum samaj nahi rehe hoon..."
"Aeyyy yedi is mein samajna kya hai. Aghr tu mujhe nahi ley jayegi tu mein tujhe bhi nahi jane dooga."
"Acha theek hai tum bhi saath chalo."
After few minutes Raghu got ready wearing his favorite blue shirt with blue jeans and with a blue scarf around his neck. He came outside where Antara was standing. "Miss kaul chal mein tayaar hoon."
Antara was lost checking him out, he really looked handsome Antara thought.
"Aeyy yedi??" That yedi word broke his trance and she came back from her thoughts.
"Han chalo." Both of them were ready and came out from the boathouse and started to search for shikara.
In Raghu's mind something was cooking he wanted to make his Miss Kaul's birthday special.
