Saahebaan, Meherbaan, Kadardaan, Budhe (old) and jawaan! Yeh kahaani shuru hui zaroor thhi, par khatam hone ka naam hi nahi le rahi. Aapki duaoon ka kamala hai, aap sabhi bemisaal hain. Suniye aaj ki taaza khabar, now this story isn't short any more, I converted it into an FF! Dekha kya speed hai meri! You know what, I actually work at 1,000,000,000,000 horse power! Chal jhutthi!
Coming more close, he saw Sammy sitting on the sofa seat, with a popcorn bucket in his hand and enjoying something playing on the television. "A movie or it can be some comedy show. That's why he's laughing this loud." thought Raghav, shaking his head. As he went more close and sat beside Sammy and looked at the television screen, he froze. His eyes widened, mouth hung open, whole body went numb and his heart started beating loudly.
Gulping hard, Raghav looked at Sammy, who in response grinned. Ab aya unth pahaad ke niche. Baccho, apni iss naak (nose) par bohot gussa lekar ghumte the na, sabki naak mein dam kar rakha thha, ab toh naak ragadni padegi, iss dar se, ki kahin naak kat na jaye. Jeez..this naak is so important.
Biting his lip hard, Raghav looked again at the T.V. screen and;
"Yyyuuuhoo...you know, aaj maine tasty tasty milkshake piya!! It was so tasty.." Raghav twirled around and then sat on the floor, folding his legs and cradling his face in his hands.
"Milkshake.." gulped Kalpana. "Toh..uumm..aapne kitne glass milkshake piya?" she asked.
"Uuummm.." Raghav started counting on his fingers.
"One...twoo...three..four..seven..nine...five..five..Haan maine five glasses of milkshake ko drink kar liya."
"Aapne 5 glass bhang ke pe liye? Aap pagal ho gaya hain kya?" snapped Kalpana.
"Bhaang nahi, it was milkshake, woh tumhaare bhai ne bola na. And haan, main pagal ho gaya hoon...in your love!" Raghav giggled like a teenage girl, making Kalpana blush.
"Milkshake..ahaan! Waise Raghav tujhe pata nahi kya, ki four ke naad five aata hai, seven yah nine nahi?" asked Sammy, pouting in the cutest way possible. And the, forward the video a little bit that landed up-at;
"Wahi kar raha hoon, jo Majnu ne Laila ke liye, Ranjha ne Heer ke liye aurr Romeo ne Juliet ke liye kiya thha...suicide..suicide..SUICIDE!!!" replied Raghav, flowing here and there cause of his drunken state.
"Arre Kamla Tai, yeh suicide kya hota hai?" asked Manda.
Kamla Tai giggled like a school girl and replied, "Arre Manda, jab ameer log marte hain na, toh usse suicide kehte hain."
"Arre par baat kya hai, tum kyon suicide karna chahte ho?" asked Paakhi, who was equally drunk.
"Arre mat pooch, Misss...Irritating Kapoor, tumhaari Chinese jaise badi badi aankhon (Sarcastic idiot!) mein teardrops aa jayenge...Yeh badi dukh bhari kahaani hai, my sad isshtory (story). Iss story mein emotion hai, drama hai, tragedy hai. Yeh Basanti hai na..yeh Basanti mujhse pyaar nahi karti!" replied Raghav.
"Seriously Raghav..Basanti..!" laughed Dammy, pushing his legs in Raghav's lap, who was so still, to act up-on.
"Wait, I'll show you all the highlights of the show! And haan, maine tere laptop mein, phone mein even tere tab mein yeh video save kar di hai, with protection password of-course, taaki tu iss video ko delete na kar sake. Abhi trailer dek le, poori picture baad mein dekh lena!" Sammy smirked evily. Kaha thha na, har gaddhe ka din aata hai!
"You know, main tumme itna kho jata hoon, ki uss din doctor ne mujhe injection laga diya, aurr mujhe pata bhi nahi chala..hehehe.." giggled Raghav, making Kalpana chuckle.
"Aurr bataon?" asked Raghav, pulling himself slightly away from Kalpana, looking into her eyes. Kalpana nodded in positive, wiping tears off Raghav's face.
"You know, aaj kal mujhe office ke liye ready hone ke liye, exactly 4 hours lagte hain, he..he..uh..tumhe impress karne ke liye." Raghav smiled sheepishly, making Kalpana's cheeks red with blush.
"I am actually starting to like those gaindde (hippopotamus)..ufff..I mean, gainde (Marigold) flowers. Even know, see I am playing Holi, dancing, singing and I am really enjoying...yuhooo." said Raghav, punching his fists in air.
Well Raghav was so lost in his bewakoofiyaan, that he actually didn't noticed the fact that he was hugging Kalpana and crying in the video. Bechaara Raghav, aankhon par parde jo pad gaye hain, janaab ke!
That's really embarrassing! Raghav couldn't take it anymore, he pushed Sammy's legs from his lap, stood up from the sofa seat and started walking towards his room, when another sound made him stop dead in his tracks!
"I Love you too, Raghav. I Love you too."
That voice, he can recognize that voice, anywhere, anytime. Even if he's surrounded by millions, trillions of voice, he can point this beautiful, mesmerizing, musical and loving voice, as easily as breathing. It's her voice, the one, who he belongs to, the one, who belongs to him, the one who means the world for him, the one who he loves more than anything and everything. His and only his..Kalpana!
Making a 360 degree turn, Raghav, once again made his way towards the sofa seat in the living room, besides Sammy and looked at the T.V. screen, at the video, which was paused for now, but clearly showed, him and his Kalpana...well, not hugging as he had assumed! Kalpana was down on the floor, as if someone had pushed her, and he..well, crap, why was he standing on the bench, when Kalpana was on floor?
Aise aankhen phad phad ke dekhne ki zaroorat nahi hai, I know you want to know that why are you standing on the bench, when Kalpana was on floor! Here see it yourself! This is the part I love the most!" squealed Sammy. Well that can be dangerous..very..very dangerous!
"Aaj main upar, aasmaan neeche, aaj main aage.., zamaana hai peechhe.., tell me o khuda, ab main, kya karoon, chaloon seedha ki ulta chaloon, yuho, yuhooo.." he even started to dance. Kalpana stared at Raghav, wide eyed and open mouthed, while Sammy couldn't control himself any more. Still continuing with the video, Sammy burst out laughing out so loud that it startled Kalpana to bits.
"Sammy sir...aap" stuttered Kalpana, looking at Raghav who still was dancing and singing.
"I am sorry..really..sorry.." laughed Sammy. He was literally ROFL-ing.
Kalpana blushed knowingly, that Sammy had actually watched and listened and even recorded each and every bit of her and Raghav's confession. But at present, she was feeling too awkward to react to anything.
After few minutes, Sammy was able to stop laughing and compose himself, but again Raghav added, "Aaaj kal paaon zameen par naheen padate mere, bolo dekhaa hain kabhee tumane mujhe, udate huye." Raghav made a flying gesture.
This made Sammy laugh again, even Kalpana cracked up laughing lowly. "I am...uff.." Sammy tried to say something but couldn't hold his laugh. Poor Raghav, he isn't aware, that in what situation he is getting himself.
After another round of laughing, Sammy was able to sober up and talk, "I am really sorry for interrupting, but I guess, humme Raghav ko ghar le jaana chahiye. Iss waqt uska yahaan rehna thik nahi hai, pata nahi ab kaunsa song, gaane lag pade!" chuckled Sammy, and as if on cue, Raghav sang, "Tera mujhe hai pehle ka naata koi, yoonhi nahi dil lubhaata koi, jaane tu...ya jaane na...maane tu..yah mane na.."
Seeing this, Raghav blushed hard, very hard. He looked like a tomato, Kalpana's personal tamatar! And Sammy, well he was laughing out loud, but when he saw Raghav blushing, he started ROFL-ing.
Sobering up, Raghav said, "Yaar Sammy, tujhe mujhpar kitna hasna hai, baad mein has lena, but please rewind the video and tell me, did Kalpana actually confessed her love for me? Please!!" pleaded Raghav to which Sammy smiled and did what Raghav asked for.
Tilting his head a little, Raghav, in the most innocent way possible, asked, "Tussi jaa rahe ho? Tussi na jao.." and hugged her. His arms around her waist, his head against her stomach and Kalpana's fingers caressing his hair.
Sobbing lowly, Raghav poured out his feelings, "Koi mujhse pyaar nahi karta, na Mom, na Dad, aurr na tum! Tabhi toh tum sab mujhe akela chod kar chale gaye. Kyon mujhse kabhi koi pyaar nahi kar sakta? Kya main itna bura hoon? Mom-dad ko toh tumhaare bhgwaan ne mujhse cheen liya aurr tum..huh! Main jaanta hoon, maine tumhaari feelings ko hurt kiya hai, tumhaari insult ki, tumhe poore office ke saamne..hmph. Tumhaari kabiliyat par shaq kiya, pata nahi kya kya nahi kahan yahaan tak ki tumhaare status par bhi..I am sorry Kalpi. Main darr gaya thha, darr gaya thha ki agar maine tumhe apne kareeb aane diya, toh tum mera khayal rakhne lago gi, meri bikhri hui zindagi ko sambhalo gi, mere toote hue sapno ko swaro gi. Darta thha, ki main tumpar depend karne lagonga. I was afraid to depend up-on you, to trust you, issiliye tumhe khud se door rakhne ke bahane dhoondne laga. Laga ki agar tumse gusse se pesh aaunga, tumhaari insult karunga to tum mujhse door rahogi."
Raghav continued, "Main tumhe khud se door bhejta raha, par tum har baar mere aurr zyada kareeb aati gayi. Jitna tumpar gussa karta, usse kahin zyada tumse pyaar karne laga. Na jaane kab, kahaan, kaise, tum mere itne karee baa gayi, ki tumhaare bina saans lena bhi mushkil ho gaya hai mere liye. You know, main tumme itna kho jata hoon, ki uss din doctor ne mujhe injection laga diya, aurr mujhe pata bhi nahi chala..hehehe.." giggled Raghav, making Kalpana chuckle, and Sammy laugh a little, wiping a stray tear that escaped his eye.
"Aurr bataon?" asked Raghav, pulling himself slightly away from Kalpana, looking into her eyes. Kalpana nodded in positive, wiping tears off Raghav's face.
"You know, aaj kal mujhe office ke liye ready hone ke liye, exactly 4 hours lagte hain, he..he..uh..tumhe impress karne ke liye." Raghav smiled sheepishly, making Kalpana's cheeks red with blush.
"I am actually starting to like those gaindde (hippopotamus)..ufff..I mean, gainde (Marigold) flowers. Even know, see I am playing Holi, dancing, singing and I am really enjoying...yuhooo." said Raghav, punching his fists in air.
Kalpana wiped her and Raghav's tears, then brought the first aid box, bandaged Raghav's hand, and once again, Raghav opened his mouth and a little dangerous words came out, "Can you please kiss it better?" he asked positioning his bandaged hand, close to her lips.
Without any hesitance, Kalpana held Raghav's hand and brought it to her lips, kissing it lightly, she asked, "Ab thik hai?"
"Much better..hhmm.." then he hugged her again and this time, Kalpana too wrapped her arms around him, tightly. "I love you a lot, Kalpana. Do you love me?" asked Raghav.
That's the right moment. "Say it Kalpi, say it!" whisper-prayed Sammy. Kalpana pulled back from the hug, looked intensely into Raghav's eyes and the lovingly kissing his forehead she replied, "I Love you too, Raghav. I Love you too."
"Mil gaya sukoon janaab ko? Lo kar diya usne bhi apne pyaar ka izhaar! I am really happy for you Raghav, really!" smiled Sammy.
"I know..thanks a lot!" replied Raghav, hugging Sammy. Raghav knew that a mere "thanks" can't describe that how much thankful Raghav is. Sammy has really done a lot for him. A lot!
Coming out of the hug, Raghav smirked, kind of teasingly and said, "Now now Miss Jadhav, get ready to face me. Now that you have confessed it all, I am going to make you mine, in all ways. Get ready Miss Kalpana Jadhav, you're soon going to become, Mrs. Kalpana Raghav Singhania."
"Ahaan..I am loving it!" shrieked Sammy, making Raghav chuckle and think, is Sammy really a guy, then why does he make girly sounds! *winks*
Ahaan..even I am loving it. Kahaani ne progress to ki hai, in various way. Well a new part, Kalpana ka izhaar, Raghav hai bekaraar, aurr aap sabko hai kal shyaam 7 baje ka intezaar, well mujhe bhi. Kahaani khatam nahi hui hai abhi, milana hai humme RagNa ko kabhi! Tell me, you want some other girl for Sammy, yah phhir Paakhi se kaam chala len abhi?
