Not Sir Anymore!!
It's 8pm already, She has to meet Raghav at 9. She dint want to leave her Ayi alone after today's incident but her Ayi assured her that she is fine as Tayi is been found by Pakhi. She has told Ayi that she is going for dinner with Raghav Sir just to thank him but deep inside she knows that her heart wants to go and meet him.. With a blush she goes to her almirah. She fumes on seeing old dresses.. The same boring ones which she wears in office daily. She looks herself in mirror and wonders why she is getting so conscious.. it's just a dinner and she is not the one who cares about look much.. She clarifies that she doesn't wanna look pretty to impress Raghav sir but she just doesn't want Raghav sir to feel insulted coz of her clothes. With this thoughts she opened her suitcase which had some party wears.. She took two packets from that.. One had a pretty red short dress which Pakhi gifted her last year... She kept it for her mother's sake but dint wear it till now. Another pack had a blue umbrella suit with silver embroidery and net sleeves. It was gifted by her best friend on her farewell day. She thinks to wear short dress as they are going to the best restaurant of the city and Raghav will like it but thn decides otherwise and wears suit thinking she won't change for anyone.
It's 8:45 now, She is full ready and waiting Raghav to pick her. She denied him to come as she can reach on her own but Raghav insisted that he will come to pick her. Just then someone honks the car horn. She picks her silver clutch matching and goes out to see Raghav's car on chawl's door. Hurriedly she bids goodbye to her mother and approaches the car thinking Raghav will be there. But gets disappointed on seeing driver. Driver informs her that Raghav has sent him to receive her. She doesn't say anything and sits in the backseat thinking that Raghav sir won't change.. I told him that I will come on my own but he said he will come and now showing his status by sending a car with driver. Huh!! On seeing outside she realizes that the route which driver has taken doesn't goes to the restaurant but towards Raghav's house. She inquires about the same to driver and he replies Sir told him to bring u home. She wonders why and thn thinks may be from there we will go together to the restaurant.
It took them 20 mins to reach there.. All this time she was just thinking about the time she spent with Raghav. She was remembering how Raghav requested her to call him by name and not sir. On reaching Raghav's home, she was directed towards the terrace. Terrace was beautifully decorated with candles, diyas and balloons. There was table in the center and few stalls at the corner.. The simplicity of the decoration took her heart. It was a perfect date arrangement but she shooks her head and said Kalpi you are here just to thank Sir for helping his ayi. Just then a spotlight focuses on Kalpi.. Raghav is standing there near her with his hand extended.. He looks at her beautiful face.. Her beautiful big eyes have awed him.. He is spell-bounded by her appearance.. She is looking like some apsara who has come on earth for him. Kalpi too notices him. He was wearing black Kurta-Pyjama.. He was looking pure desi jath in it and the way he extended her hand.. it looks like he is doing Amitabh's style "Haaye". She laughs a bit on her thoughts.. He notices her laughing and asks what happened. Kalpi just signal towards her hand and smiles again. Raghav realizes and immediately forwards his hand to her n says..May I?? She give her hand blushingly to her and they heads towards table.
She sees a hand written menu on the table.. She was surprised to see it and starts reading loudly
Welcome drink : Jaljeera
Starter : Palak ke pakore
Main course : Methi-matar ki sabji, puri, boondi raita, daal, rice and moong daal ka halwa.
Side dish : Besan-chila
Desserts : chocolate and Kufi
She excitedly says : Sir, this are all my fav items. I love this menu more than any restaurant's one/ How u came to know about it.
Raghav : Well that's my talent.
Kalpi : U did all this for me sir. U did all this alone??
Raghav : Well I won't lie. Sammy helped me. And yep.. I dint cook this food. My chef did. I only know how to cook pasta and Maggie. He laughs on this statement.
Kalpi was amused to see him laughing. She can't imagine Raghav smiling properly and here he is laughing like a kid.
Raghav : What happened??
Kalpi : You look handsome while laughing.. Keep laughing more often.
Raghav : You are reason for this happiness. Promise me to stay beside me and I will keep laughing like this.
Kalpi just changes the topic and says.. Sir can I have my welcome drink now??
Raghav : Ohh m so sorry.. I forgot it. It's all ur fault Kalpi.
Kalpi : Mine?? How??
Raghav : U r looking so beautiful that I can't concentrate anywhere else.
Kalpi blushes sweetly and thanks him for the compliment. The welcome drinks had been served with a background song "Ye tumhari meri baaten". Kalpi starts humming and says "U noe sir this is my favorite song".
Raghav : "Yes, I know."
Kalpi : Ohh!! It's ur talent again. Who told u all this?? It has to be dada. He is the only one who knows this.
Raghav: Ohh u caught me. Yep Sammy somehow tricked Pakya and he revealed all ur choices. This time I had to take his help but next time I will be the one to know all ur choices and planning according to that.
Kalpi smiled on listening next time. She was happy that it isn't for once but Raghav is willing to make more efforts for her. They kept talking for few more minutes with their dinner. Raghav was struggling with the spicey food but he dint want Kalpi to realize this. But Kalpi noticed this.
Kalpi : Sir eat raita more, that's not spicey.
Raghav : No m absolutely fine.
Kalpi(with a wink) : Let's have dessert than. It will help u.
Raghav asks Kalpi to come to the stall than. Stall had all types of kulfi available. He asked Kalpi to choose the flavor of his choice.
Kalpi(Laughingly) : So dada din't tell u my fav flavor. Haa?? I would have one Kesar pista. And u sir?
Raghav : Same as urs.
They enjoy their kulfis with another song of Kalpi's choice.. Aankhen bhi hoti hai dil ki zuban.. The lyrics caught their attention. They share an intense eyelock. It made them feel that song is made for them only. Raghav's ring tone diverts their attenion. It was Kamla maa asking for Kalpi as she had forgotten her mobile at home. Raghav has assured her that Kalpi is safe and she will reach home in 1 or 2 hrs.
Kalpi : 1 or 2 hrs. That would be so late sir. I should leave now.
Raghav : Ur mom had given permission and I will drop u. So u will be safe. Don't u trust me??
Kalpi : I do sir.
Raghav : Let's have chocolate than. They reaches another stall which had all types of chocolate from eclairs to Temptation. He picks dairy milk from there and says I know this one is ur fav and Pakya dint told me this.
Kalpi smile and says.. Only one!! U won't eat sir??
Raghav : Why won't I?? Won't u share it??
Kalpi cuts a piece from her hand gives the rest to Raghav. Raghav shook her head.
Raghav : Uffo Kalpi!! U don't even know how to share. He takes chocolate from Kalpi's hand and made her eat it with his own hands. She took a bite and than he eats the same chocolate saying : "No we have shared the same chocolate so can u call me Raghav instead of Sir." Kalpi was out of words. She dint knew how to respond to his demand.
She again changes the topic and says.. Actually I wanted to thank you for today. You saved my aayi from those goons. I know thanks is not enough but..
Raghav interrupts.. Kalpi thanks is not required even. I noe how much u love ur Aayi. She is special to u and you are special to me. I can do anything for you. Another eyelock. After few seconds Kalpi gets her senses back and so as Raghav. An awkward silence between them. They both dint knw what to say now. Just thn Kalpi sees a small decorated stall on the other corner of the terrace. She asks Raghav what it is.. Raghav tells her to see it by herself. She runs towards that side. Raghav too follows. A gift was placed in the middle of the table.
Kalpi : Is it for me??
Raghav : No, it was for the waiter who served us. Offcourse, it's for you Kalpi.
Kalpi : Thank u so much sir. But what was the need?? U have already done a lot for me. I can't take it.
Raghav keeps his finger on the lips and tell her to open it. She was surprised by his gesture. But without saying anything she starts opening it. It was a dancing couple in snow globe. In bottom it was written "Together forever."
Kalpi gets emotional on seeing this. She says : It's beautiful.
Raghav thn giver her a heart shape card. She opens it and it was blank. He tells her to write whatever comes in your heart and gives her pen. She refused to take the pen, keeps the card on table and goes towards the table where they had dinner.
Raghav feels bad. He thinks Kalpi still doesn't want to accept him. He was about to go to the table when Kalpi returned with her clutch. She smiles and opens the clutch. Raghav was confused that what she is upto. Then she takes out "The Pen"(which Raghav gave her in childhood) and star writing on the card. Raghav was trying to sneak but she signaled him not to. He than gives it to her and says open it after dropping me. Raghav nods. Then she tells him to drop her. They drive back to chawl. They dint utter single word in the car but their silence was loud enough to understand their feelings. On reaching chawl Kalpi just comes out of the car and goes towards the door. Raghav was amused. She dint even say bye but then she turned and with her eyes tell him to open card now. Raghav opened it and smiled on reading "Thank you Raghav". He knew she dint accept his love but she called him Raghav.. that means something has definitely changed between them. He looks at her and she waves his hand with a sweet smile.
