RagNa (AshNa) ff/ss: Love. Season 2- Part 2 pg 8. 20/07/16 - Page 4

Though Raj had a faint idea of where , rather , with whom she would've been he decided to tease his best friend and so he eyed her suspiciously while rubbing his imaginary beard while saying ,"So where have you been??". For this Kalpana was totally unprepared because she had decided that if anyone asks where she was she would say she was at Raj's place but now her answer was itself questioning her.

"When there's no solution there's always one solution, avoid the problem", she thought to herself and moving him out of her way she entered saying ,"What are you doing here questioning me you should be getting ready. The muhurat for marriage is at 11.35, I also have to go bye", saying so she was just about to run but Raj held her hand and pulled her towards him, "You are not going anywhere without answering my question", he said. "Raaaj", Kalpi whined while trying to free her hand but he now just wanted to know whether or not his Hitch RagNa' plan worked (Season 1). "Try as much as you want I'm not leaving you until you answer", he said with a smirk but luck favoured Kalpana and,"Kalpi", Kamla called her sounding bit annoyed.

Jadhav family never minded the close friendship Raj and Kalpi shared but sometimes their behavior would irk Kamla. "Ha aai..",freeing her hand Kalpi ran to Kamla.. "We have to reach the venue by ten, go get ready", Kamla said and went upstairs to her room leaving behind a surprised Kalpi. "Why does aai behave like that sometimes??", Kalpana wondered and looked at Raj who was just coming towards her and before he came near her she made a teasing face and ran upstairs.

Humming the tone of the song that commenced and sealed his love story Raghav entered his house using the spare key he always carried and all he saw around was people walking here and there. "Arey don't forget this", he heard someone say and another voice from other side ,"Not like this. It should be like this". "Atleast no one noticed my absence", he thought smiling to himself and headed straight to his room.

"Raghav", Gauri called out. "Yes mom", he said turning towards her. "We forgot to give Prem the necklace. Everyone is busy doing something or other and it has to be given by some relative so can you go to the Jadhavs and give it to him", Raghav had to make herculean efforts to control that grin forming on his face by the thought of going to her house and just timidly nodded a yes ,"I'll go freshen up and then leave". Smiling Gauri caressed his cheek and handed him the red box. Taking it from her Raghav went upstairs eager to meet his ladylove again and that too in such short time span.

"Kalpana hurry", she heard some relative call out ,"I'm getting ready", she replied back and resumed getting clothes from her closet rather her closet room. There was small cupboard in her closet room and in there was a red coloured box which had that saree she was going to where for the marriage ceremony, the one he chose for her.

Flashback (Season 1)

After choosing jewelry Kalpi moved onto dresses... She asked Raghav through her eyes which she should wear and Raghav helped her to choose dresses in same manner... She was done with shopping and trying the dresses for all functions except marriage...

She picked up a yellow with orange colour lehenga and looked into the mirror to ask Raghav's opinion but Raghav wasn't there... She turned to see where Raghav was but there was no sign of him... Just then a salesgirl came to Kalpi and handed her a Red-coloured saree... "Who gave this??",Kalpi asked her.. "That person", the girl pointed at Raghav who was standing with Maya...

That sweet memory brought a smile on her face followed by blush thinking about the session that followed at home that

Flashback

The whole Jadhav family with Raj was busy in unwrapping the shopped stuff while arrangements were going on for mehendi..."Aaj kal humaare KJ ke choices kaafi badal rahe hai",Raj said while he showed Kamla the saree Kalpi bought... "The girl who hated sarees and thought them to be uncomfortable has bought it to wear at her brother's wedding...waah bhai waah..."

Kamla- (Looking at the saree) The saree is beautiful beta ... by the way from when did you started liking sarees..?? I know you wore that saree I gave just because I gifted it and your sir had asked you to wear something traditional...

Kalpi- Its nothing like that... I just thought to wear something different at bhai's wedding...

Raj- (Narrowing his eyebrows) You thought or someone else made you think so... hmmm??? (To Kamla) Aunty you know today we met Maya's cousin Raghav (stressing on the name)

Kalpi's heart unknowingly skipped a beat on hearing Raghav's name... She excused herself from their which grew Raj's suspicion ..."Definately kuch to gadbad hai",He thought...

She definitely couldn't deny the fact that she thought Raj was suspicious but him not asking more questions about Raghav made her ignore the thought and now that she was officially with Raghav she decided to tell Raj everything and that too today itself. "Yup its decided", she said to herself and removing the saree out of the box she started getting ready for the marriage.

"Arey bhai-sahab yeh pehle leke jaaon, Pooja ka saamaan hai sambhalke", Raj was instructing some workers when the doorbell rang again. "Aaj toh lagta hai main officially watchman bann gaya hu ghar ka", saying so he went to open the door.

"Raghav act cool.. Yes act normal, no one knows yet and its too early for anyone to know so just be cool .. I just hope I get to see Kalpana .. umm no.. Kalpi.. yes kalpi..". "Mr.Singhania", his chain of thoughts was broken by Raj's voice. "Hi Raj..I mean hello Mr.Malhotra ", Raghav said cursing himself for suddenly being informal with someone who himself acted formal. "Raj is ok", Raj replied, "Raghav too is", Raghav said. They greeted each other with a hand shake and Raj invited Raghav inside. " just had to hand over this to Prem", Raghav said showing the box he held in his hand. "Accha toh sirf yahi dena hai.. Ok", Raj thought mischievously. "Umm.. ok..I'll give it to bhai.. I would've asked you to wait but you might be so busy with other arrangements, right Raghav", Raj said in a much naive way. Looking around Raghav replied,"Hmm.. Yes.. but I", "But .. What??", Raj asked sounding curious. "Nothing", Raghav said and just when he was going to leave he felt something as if the one whom his eyes were searching for was here and in a reflex his eyes went towards the staircase and saw an angelic beauty dressed in bright red saree coming down.

Finally she managed wearing the jhumkas and just when she looked up she saw that handsome face that had been giving her sleepless nights since last two days and an involuntary smile graced her face while their eyes held each other's gaze.

*Cough* *Cough*

Raj coughed on seeing VitLa coming towards him and Raghav, making Raghav conscious about the surroundings. Realizing what he was doing Raghav flushed in embarrassment but immediately composed himself and greeted VitLa, "Hello Mr. and Mrs.Jadhav". "You can call us Uncle-Aunty beta, after all you are family now", Kamla replied and Raghav smiled at her sweetness. "Anyways what are you doing here, you should be at the venue by now", Vithal said trying his best to sound pleasant. "Yes, I just came to hand the necklace to Prem, it's a ritual in our family", Raghav replied , "Now I'll take your leave". Kalpana came down by then and Raghav looked at her. He mouthed bye to her before winking at her making her eyes go wide like saucers and chuckling at her response he left.

"What was the need?", Vithal almost yelled at kamla. "What do you mean?", she asked. "Kamla how many times do I have to tell you, don't ever mingle much with my business associates, Raghav Singhania might be Maya's cousin but he'll always be a business associate and I don't mix personal and professional relations", he scolded and Kamla too replied fiercely ,"I was just being polite which you I think have forgotten with all you businessman attitude". "Oh for god's sake not today!!!", Kalpi shouted at them and walked away with Raj following her," One small thing.. that's all they need to quarrel",she said. "Let them be, you don't worry. Every relationship comes with its share of difficulties and fights ,its normal. I'll beright back, need to give this to bhai", Raj said and went to Prem's room. " Raghav and I won't fight but..", and then she realized ,"If baba knows about us then..". The last time she got into a relationship she almost lost half of her father's company and though now she wasn't scared she knew her father would be , thinking that history might repeat itself.

"This won't be easy", Kalpana thought.
