Nikbhi FF : Hum Tum - Last Part & Epilogue Pg. 85 - Page 16

Part 8

The news of Rahul and Muskaan's wedding spread in Sanjeevni. That was the only thing one everyone's lips.

"Dr. Modi," a ward boy called knocking on his office door.

Abhi looked up and motioned the ward boy to come in. "Yes?" he asked. "Kya hai?"

"Meeting room ready hai, sir," the ward boy replied.

"Thik hai," Abhi replied putting his files away in the drawers. "Sab interns ko bola lo. Aur kehna ke dus minute, yaneke ek bage puhuch jaye."

The ward boy left to tell the interns the message.

The interns sat, eating their lunch and planning the sangeet.

"Yaar, Nikki," Rahul whined. "Please, can't you plan it? You're so good!"

"Woh to main hoon hi," Nikki replied grinning. "Lekin, yaar. I can't do it all by myself! In saab ko bhi madat karni padegi!"

"Of course!" Anjali said. "Hum help zaroor karenge. Kyu Atul?"

"Haan yaar," Atul added. "Anjali, mein tumhe hamesha madat karunga."

"Are, champ!" Armaan exclaimed slapping his back. "Is bar, Anjali ki nahi, par Rahul aur Muskaan ko madat ki zarurat hai. Especially Rahul. Bechara shaadi ke bandhan mein phas jayenga. Phir humse kaise milenga. Is liya, Rahul ko jee bhar ke dekh le, kyun ki shaadi ke badh, ye to bilkul badal jayenga."

"Aacha!?" Ridhima said pulling Armaan by an ear. "Shaadi kar ke aap log phas jaate hai?"

"Are, Basket!" Armaan pleaded. "Mein to sirf usual bak bak kar raha hoon. Mujhe kya pata shaadi kar ke aap log hamara kya haal bana dete hai. Maine to abhi shaadi kahan ki hai? Mein itna experienced bhi nahi hoon!"

Nikki laughed. "Are yaar, shaadi ek bahut hi sundar experience hai. Shaadi karke aap dono bahut aacha kar rahe ho. Aur waise bhi, agar saath rehna hai, so shaadi bahut zaroori hai. Warna dono ki lifestyles bahot badal jaati hai aur adjust karma harder ho jaata hai."

Rahul raised his eyebrows. "Tu aise bol rahi hai ke tuhne shaadi kar li hai."

Nikki bit her tongue and sighed. Of course she was married. Duh! How could she ever just forget her marriage? It was the best thing that had ever happened to her!

"Umm'yaar. Yeh sab to meine suna hai! Mummy bhi yahi kehti hai. 'Nikki, to jaldi shaadhi kar le. Choti umar mein shaadi hoti hai to ek dosre ko aachi tarah se jan sakte ho.'," Nikki lied.

"Oh!" Atul exclaimed. "Anjali, hum ek dosre ko kitni aachi tarah se jaante hai na? Lekin phir bhi. Tumhe nahin lagta ke humari bari in dono ke badh hai?"

"Shut up, Atul," Anjali said rolling her eyes.

"INTERNS!" a familiar voice yelled.

"Jee, sir?" Muskaan asked as all the interns stood up. "I mean Doctor Keerti," she corrected.

Dr. Keerti gave all the interns a deathly look. "Yeh ward boy aap ko kabse keh raha hai ke Dr. Modi ne aap loko ko meeting room mein ek baje bulaya hai? Lekin aap logo ko aapni bato se hi fursat nahin hai. Ab ek baj chuka hai. I'm sure that you'd rather be late than never go. Hurry interns."

The interns slowly made their way to the meeting room discussing more plans on how to arrange the sangeet.

"Guys!" Armaan exclaimed. "Sangeet kiske ghar pe hoga?"

"How about your house, Nikki?" Muskaan asked.

"Yea, sure. Mujhe sirf Abhi se puchna hoga," she replied without thinking.

"Kisse puchna hoga?!" Armaan and Rahul exclaimed.

Nikki stopped dead in her tracks. "I mean'mujhe abhi meri landlord se puchna hoga. Lekin yaar, I don't think woh haan kahengi."

"Oh," Armaan said. "Thik hai. To kyu na hum mere ghar pe rakhle?"

"Thik hai," everyone agreed.

* * *

Abhi looked at his watch and saw it was six past one.

"Kahan kai yeh saab?" he asked himself.

He quickly called Sister Lovely and told her to make an announcement for the interns. A few seconds after his orders, Lovely announced.

Abhi sat in his chair expecting the interns to walk in as soon as the announcement ended. He sat there for a while and got more and more frustrated every minute he had to wait.

As soon as Abhi got up and started to walk out the door, he collided with Nikki.

"Nikki!" he exclaimed. "I mean'Nikita, Dr. Nikita. Where have you been?"

The interns one by one walked in the meeting room and took a seat.

Abhi stood by the door, holding it open, surprised at how careless the interns were.

"Okay, guys," Anjali continued. "To Armaan ke ghar hai. Kab?"

"Umm'I think ke hum eek week to lagega sab tayar karne mein," Ridhima answered.

"So how about next Sunday guys?" Nikki asked.

"Great," Atul said. "Kitna aacha sawal tha, Anjali!"

"Atul shut up!" all the interns said together.

"Sorry Anjali," Atul said innocently.

"Unbelievable!" Abhi muttered.

He slammed the door shut as all the interns turned to look at him.

"What is going on, doctors?" Abhi asked angrily. "Maine aap sab ko apni personal life aur parties ke bare mein baat karne nahi bulaya hai! Ek to aap 15 minute late aate ho, aur upar se kam ke baat bhi nahi karte!"

"What is it, Dr. Abhimanyu Modi?" Nikki asked frustrated with Abhi's angriness.

"Well, Dr. Nikita Malhotra! Maine aap sab ko yeh kehne ke liya bulaya hai ke '"

Abhi stopped talking and looked at Armaan and Ridhima and sighed.

"Dr. Armaan! Dr. Ridhima" he exclaimed. "Agar aap ko abhi flirt karna hai, to please hospital aana chod degiye! Aab bhi Dr. Rahul and Dr. Muskaan!"

The interns ignored Abhi and continued their conversation on Rahul and Muskaan's sangeet.

"Doctors!" Abhi exclaimed.

He repeated the word a coupler more times but just like the first time ' no one answered.

Abhi sighed. "What are they all talking about anyways!?"

"Doctors?" he asked slowly and sweetly.

"Are yaar! Kya hai!?" Rahul asked annoyed.

"Aap log kya plan kar rahe hai?" Abhi asked as Rahul went back to talking about the sangeet.

"Kuch nahi, Doctor Modi," Anjali replied. "Hum log to sirf Rahul aur Muskaan ka sangeet plan kar rahe hai."

"Oh!" Abhi said not surprised. "To yeh sangeet kahan hai?"

"Abe yaar," Armaan answered. "Tum sun nahi rahe the kya? Mere ghar pe!"

"Okay," Abhi sighed. "Umm'kab hai?"

"Sunday," Ridhima said.

"Kaun kaun aa raha hai?" Abhi asked.

"Uff-oh," Muskaan said. "Sanjeevni mein jo bhi kam karta hai woh sab aa rahe hai!"

"Oh!" Abhi replied smiling. "Great doctors! Kitne baje hai?"

"Shaam ke 4 baje," Atul answered.

"Cool, Docs! I'll be there!" Abhi replied picking up his jacket and leaving the room.

"Yea, sure" Rahul replied. "No wait!"

All the interns looked up at Abhimanyu leaving and their eyes widened.

"Humne Abhimanyu ko invite kiya!?" Rahul exclaimed.

"Mujhe lagata key eh sara sawal Atul puch raha hai!" Armaan said in disbelief.

"Are yaar!" Atul exclaimed. "Kya mera aawaz Abhimanyu jesa hai!? I'm so sorry, Anjali. Mein mera aawaz badal ne ki koshish karunga!"

"Shut up Atul!" Anjali said in disbelief.

"Kya humne seriously Abhimanyu ko invite kiya humare sangeet mein!?" Muskaan asked whining.

"Nahin, Muskaan," Ridhima said. "Humne isko nahin invite kiya. Isne to apne aap ko invite kar liya."

"Oh come on guys!" Nikki said. "He isn't THAT bad!"

"Yes, Nikki," Armaan replied. "He IS THAT bad."

"Tum log ko nahin lagta ke tum usko thodi zyada hi nafrat karte ho?" Nikki questioned.

"Um'no. In fact, hume usse aur bhi nafrat karni chaiye," Anjali answered. "After all, usne mere papa ki position le li!"

"Chodo na guys," Ridhima interrupted. "Ab to kuch badal nahin sakte na hum. Hopefully, woh bhool jaye ga. Chalo hum jake humari duties check kar lete hai."

The interns made their way to Sister Lovely continuing deciding on the theme for the sangeet.

"Haan, yeh aacha idea hai, Nikki," Muskaan agreed.

"Nikki!" Armaan exclaimed. "Yaar, yeh insaan hai ya janwar!?"

"Kaun?" Nikki asked.

"Abhimanyu!"

"Kyu'ab isne kya kiya!?"

"Hum sab ko dus baje tak duties di hai! Lekin'tumhe sirf panch baje tak!"

Nikki smiled. "Well guys, on the bright side, I can start planning for the sangeet!"

"Hmm'" Anjali said. "Thik hai. Waise meri duty 7 baje tak hai. To main finish kar ke tumhe canteen mein milti hoon. Wahan hum planning khatam karenge."

"Cool," Nikki agreed. "Sounds like a plan."

Nikki quickly finished her duties and made her way to her hubby's office.

She looked through the door and saw that the lights were switched off.

"Hmm'ab yeh kahan gaya?" she wondered out loud.

"Oh well," she continued turning around and walking towards the canteen. "Kuch kam hoga."

Nikki sat in the canteen with a bunch of papers and a list of phone numbers. She was calling people for flowers, food, sweets, etc. Anjali quickly finished her duty and joined Nikki to help.

At 9:30, Nikki looked at her watch and decided to go home making an excuse of a bad stomach. Anjali bid her bye for the day and continued calling and preparing.

Nikki knocked on the door hoping Abhi wasn't out for a business meeting.

Abhi opened the door, frustrated.

"Where were you?" he asked.

"Tumse matlab?" Nikki asked cross at Abhi's greeting style.

"Main tumhara pati hoon," he replied in a moderate tone.

"Well, Mr. Pati Dev, A: its none of your business. B: I don't have to tell you. And C: I was planning for Rahul and Muskaan's sangeet."

"Well, instead of wasting your time saying all that you could have just said the answer."

"Tumhara problem kya hai, Abhi?" Nikki asked, getting angry. "Kabhi khush nahi ho sakte?!"

"Well'agar meri biwi ke liye aapne dosto apne pati si zyada important hai to main khush kaise ho sakta hoon?"

"Kya matlab?" Nikki asked confused.

"Tumhe maine 5 baje tak duty is liye di taki tum ghar jaldi aajao aur hum kahin dinner pe jaye. Par madam ko to apne pati ki koi parwa nahin hai. Nahin woh phone karti hai aur nahi aapna phone pick up karti hai."

Nikki looked at Abhi feeling guilty and frustrated at the same time.

"Par main tumhari office mein aayi thi! Tum wahan nahi the! Aur agar tum mujhe ghar pe chahtete to tum bata to sakte te!"

"Okay!" Abhi exclaimed. "Sorry! Meri galti thi! I am so sorry Ms. Nikita Malhotra!"

Nikki looked down thinking of how to apologize as she heard a soft mumble from Abhi.

"Na jaana mein shaadi kar ke kahan phus gaya!" he exclaimed softly.

"Tum bhi!" she exclaimed. "Sare ladke ek jaise hi hote hai! Aap log to shaadi karke phus jaate hai na. Aur hum? Hum par kuch nahin beeti jab aap log apni manmani karte rehte hai!?"

"Jo bhi ho," Abhi interrupted. "I'm going to take a shower."

Saying that, Abhi walked away.

* * *

Abhi took a short, warm shower and put on black sweat pants and a black t-shirt. He came out and went to find Nikki. She was standing in the kitchen.

Abhi walked up to her and hugged her from the back. Nikki jumped with surprise and turned around.

"Nikki!" he exclaimed. "Kya hua!?"

"Kya?" Nikki said slowly.

"Tumhari aankhen itni red kyun hai!? You were crying!? Nikki, I am so sorry about yelling at you! Such mein! Shaadi karke mein nahin phusa! I love you, Nikki! I am so sorry. I was just a bit mad! But that's okay! Please Nikki! Mujhe maf kardo! I didn't mean anything I said! I Love you, Nikki!"

"ABHI!" Nikki exclaimed laughing. "Shut up!"

"I really am sorry Nikki!" Abhi said. "Wait ' tum has rahi ho!?"

"Haan!" she replied. "Relax, Abhi. I am just chopping onions!"

"Onions!?" Abhi asked. "Are you kidding me!?"

Nikki laughed even louder at Abhi's expression.

Soon enough both were laughing hard as Abhi pulled Nikki in a tight hug.

"You had me so worried!" he exclaimed. "Par Nikki'really'agar meri koi bhi baat ka tumhe bhura laga ho to mujhe maf kardo. I love you, Nikki. Aur mein tumhe hurt karma kabhi nahin chahtata."

"Its okay, Abhi," Nikki said kissing his lightly in the lips. "I love you, too."
