yaad shahar se pyar tk (completed)

Raghav was speechless... he wanted to tell her that she heard only the half part of the story... he wanted to tell her that he gave up on hurting Pakhi... he wanted to stop her from leaving... but the word "I quite" made him lose his cool once again.. He said in anger, "you just got your promotion and I'm sure you don't want to miss the opportunity... if you are not happy with this I can even promote you as my personal assistant." Only the unpleasant expressions on Kalpi's face made him realise that he was talking all trash. But it was too late. Kalpi stormed out of room without saying a word and it was her last day in that office...

Flashback ends*

Raghav heaved a long sigh when came back to the present... Sammy had handled Pakhi really well, he helped her getting over her obsession for Raghav... Raghav was in miserable condition, Kalpi left and with that a part of his soul also left... he wanted her to come back but what he saw that morning completely torn him apart!! She was with none other than Prem Kapoor... earlier, all his attempts to woo Kalpi had failed but now he was leaving no stone unturned... Kalpi was looking comfortable with him and after leaving Raghav's company they had been meeting more often!

Raghav's POV: I wanted to cut Prem's head off for taking but how can I when Prem is with Kalpi.. she is happy with him and no matter how much I hates Kapoors I can't hurt Kalpi anymore! Kalpi and Prem gosssh!

He heard Sammy entering his room. "Raghav, we should hire someone at her place," he said. Raghav looked at him first and then left the room without answering Sammy. It was late night and Sammy was trying to connect to Raghav but he wasn't taking his calls... finally he called up Kalpi. "are you sleeping," asked Sammy. He heard Kalpi's furrowing voice, "of course not it's only 3 in the morning." Sammy told her about Raghav being missing. She was shocked hearing that. She said, "then why are you calling me Sammy... he isn't a kid and will be back soon don't worry." Kalpi disconnected the call, She didn't tell it to Sammy but now she was also worried for him... without telling anyone, she came out of her house and took the taxi.

Taxi driver asked, "kahan jana hai madam." Kalpi was so engrossed in her thoughts that the man had to repeat the question which stuttered her. "ummm abho seedha lijiye fie batati hoon," she said. She tried Sammy's number but he didn't answer the call. She was thinking about all the possible locations where Raghav could go. And finally she came to one conclusion...

Kalpi asked driver to pull up before an old house... It was Raghav's Dad's first house... Raghav is really attached to it... he had mentioned about it to her by mistake, not even Sammy knew about it... the door was opened.. she entered... It was small, simple, beautiful and all wood. There was no one in the living room but she heard some noise coming from upstairs... she went up and knocked at the door..

Knock knock.. "nobody's here," Raghav replied... Now Kalpi heaved a sigh in relief because he was fine. Without saying anything she banged the door louder... Raghav was drunk.. he came near the door and shouted, " is this you Kalpi?" "Are you drunk?" she asked him but he replied in negative... Kalpi again asked him to open the door but he refused.. "Raghav open it or I'll break it," she threatened. Raghav only smiled to himself. This was the first time she called him Raghav and not sir. Kalpi shouted again, "waise ye tootega nahin to plz dawaza kholiye." Raghav complied.

Raghav was drunk and Kalpi was angry. She told him how everyone was worried about him. "everybody?" he asked mockingly. Raghav asked her why she was there and not with Prem Kapoor.. "You left the company, you left me, aadat nahin rahi tumhare bina rehne ki, poora office katne ko daudta hai, pura din tumhari khali chair ki taraf dekhta rehta hoon k shayad tum aa jao but you left!!!! ... Kalpi was taken off guard by his words. Raghav turned back and poured himself another glass of whisky. Kalpi came forward and stopped him. "I didn't want to tell anyone about Prem," she said. Raghav looked away and said, "not even me???" Especially you, she stressed. Why??? To that she replied with guilt, "because I know you hate him." Raghav gathered all his strength to look into her eyes and scowled... why does it matter? Now Kalpi was also losing her patience... "I don't know, I really don't know why but yes it matters to me," she yelled. Raghav gave a smile after noticing her reaction. He decided to talk it straight now, Did you like him?

Kalpi gave him a confused look, "Nooo!!! He was after me to join his business but I refused and told him to stay away from me." She heard Raghav saying, "That's good." Their conversation was interrupted by Sammy's call. Raghav told Kalpi not to tell him about his whereabouts.. Kalpi received the call and told Sammy that she talked with Raghav and he was fine.

Raghav was the first one to speak after Kalpi disconnected the call... "why are you here anyway... I know you hate me." Kalpi could see the pain and guilt in his eyes. I don't hate you, I can never hate you, she said while holding his hand. He looked up. His eyes were sparkling with the ray of hope and said, "But you left me??" she retorted, "because you didn't ask me to stay back." Raghav was embarrassed hearing that but managed to speak somehow, "you know I'm an idiot na." Kalpi could not help but smile to this. He was looking so innocent that she actually forgot that she was angry. "So Boss, is your offer still on," she said with a genuine smile. What does that suppose to mean," Raghav asked confusingly. She said if he was still willing to make her his permanent personal secretary... Raghav could not hold back his emotions and hugged Kalpi tightly. "I'm back and would never ever go away," she said as hugging him back. Kalpi told him, how lonely she felt without him, how he was ruling his body mind and soul. Raghav cupped his face in his hands and said lovingly, "You have always been in my heart, tab bhi jab hum pehli aar mile the or tab bhi jab hum dobara pehli baar mile the, now I'll never let you go. I'm telling you this today and I'll repeat it every day that I love you." Kalpi eyes were wet with tears she could not find words to speak. Her whole body was trembling, not with fear but with ecstasy. Raghav was running his thumb over her lips and chin said, "say something please." What Kalpi said next made him the happiest man in the world. He asked him to repeat that and she complied, "I love you without wax." With that Kalpi put her arms around his neck and Raghav leaned in to claim his lady...love...!
