Part-2
Milind runs out and again in, goes near his wardrobe and opens it and just drags out a shirt from there, wearing it he hurries through the hall, hitting his leg to the centre table in the process. He stops there, picks up a card that was laying on the floor. He stares at the card for some time and stares at the calendar that was on the tv. He still could not believe his eyes. He throws that card carelessly and runs outside. His house and Ayesha's house was opposite to each other. He stops at his house entrance and stares at them. Ayesha was opening the lock and Kashish was holding her. He goes towards the stairs to have a better view of her. He could see paleness in her face with her eyes swollen and puffy. He could see a bandage of gauze around her right wrist. He could not understand what was happening to him. He in his dreams also never expected her to be in front of him. He could not understand the paleness in her smiling face. He decided to find out everything about her. He sees them going inside, and starts to follow them inside. But he could miove his leg further. He counts till ten and storms inside, he sees Kashish and Ayesha talking. His eyes searches for her, but she was no where to be found. He thought he was dreaming. "hey Ayesha how are you, you're here so soon without attending your friend's wedding. What's happening here, even Kashish stayed back. what's the problem with you'll girls. When asked none of you'll never reply anything to me." He comfortably sat on the one of the sofas. "why do shout like that. Are you gone crazy what happens if she hears you." Milind was taken back by Ayesha's words. 'who is she." He asks in surprise. "Prachi……………………"Kashish replies carelessly. "and now Milind I don't want you to be here." Milind was about to interrupt her in the middle but Ayesha stops him. "I know what you want to ask me, but it would be better if you leave. I will explain everything to you afterwards." Ayesha went back in serious chatting with Kashish. It was clear for him that he was not dreaming but he wanted to take another glance of her. But it looked impossible for him now at present. He want all of his questions to be answered, he did not how to do. He leaves the place, but stops at entrance turns back. "hey are you both coming to office today." "na, Milind we need few days leave until Prachi gets herself adjusted here."Kashish replied. "ok fine then, your wish. Any help let me know about it, ok" "ok", the reply came in chorus. He left with a heavy heart without seeing Prachi properly. Ayesha and Kashish goes to the kitchen to cook some breakfast for Prachi, so she cold take medicines. Hearing the door bell, Kashish opens the door, and finds Milind and Saket standing there. "now what', Kashish asked irritatingly. "actually I wanted to say hi to Ayesha", Saket replied excitedly. "not now Saket. Please leave us alone. Ok", she just closes the door on their faces. "this Milind had really gone crazy over that Prachi, I don't what's going to happen." "nothing will happen Kashish. I think it's a good sign for Prachi for moving on in her life."
They see Prachi coming out of the room after few minutes, getting freshed up. She still wore white salwar, without any jewellery. This made Ayesha and Kashish more sad seeing her condition. Kashish pulled Prachi and made her sit in the sofa. "come on Prachi, let us remember the days we spent in Pune during the college days. Do you remember, the park where we used to sit and chat for long long hours, after bunking the classes. Huh, you say one thing Prachi, those days were really, so nice na. Especially we four. Me, Ayesha,you and………………………………….", she sees Prachi sobbing. Kashish hugs thightlly and utters, "sorry", in a loud wishper. "hey come on girls let us have breakfast. I'm hungry." They both sees Ayesha coming with a plate in her hand. She sits beside Prachi, handng the plate to Kashish. "it smells so yummy yaar. Your parathas always smells so yummy, huh, what special ingredients you use yaar." "nothing", Ayesha turns towards Prachi. "Prachi do you remember, when you where sad and angry, you would sit like this, blankly staring at something. Then we both come with hot hot parathas, sit on either side of you, and……………………….", Ayesha presses Prachi's cheeks, making her to open her mouth and Kashish just pushes a large piece of paratha into her mouth, "and our Prachi retaind her every sparkling smile on her face." Prachi gives a forceful smile, wiping her fresh tears. Ayesha and Kashish thought that they had failed making Prachi smile, because they could see the missing spark in her smile. Ayesha and Kashish, started gossiping about their college days in Pune, but Prachi sat their without responding them blankly staring at something. "hey do you have ever tasted Hyderabad's biryani, to tell it's just yummy." But Prachi just nodded her head with a sad smile appearing on her face. "arey, I want to eat gol ghuppe now, I missed a lot when you are way, Ayesha. These fellows never allow to eat anywhere and that Keerthi she come once in a while and runs back so soon." "hey don't worry. Now we three will do all masti now." "starting from shopping", Kashish jumped from the sofa where she was sitting. "yeah", Ayesha also jumped and waited for Prachi. But Prachi did not respond for that. Seeing her like they both sunk back sadly. "kashish I heard they kept 30%off sale in Pantaloons. Did you try yaar." "where Ayesha, these guys, get wild hearing the name shopping. Meanwhile Ragini became so busy." "ok I totally forgot about Ragini, where is she now. If she is there here at present, our Prachi would be laughing to her silly jokes uncontrollably." Saying Ayesha starts tickling Prachi. But PRachi just pushes away her hand. "don't worry she'll come in the evening." Kashish leans over Prachi. Still sometime both try to make get diverted from the grief but they fail in that. Tried of that thay just lay on the sofas lazily. Prachi gets up from there and goes towards the window and sadily leans over it. The wether outside becomes too cloudly, and starts drizzling making it a heavy rain. Milind was sitting in the bench of that park, thinking about the evnts that took place. He suddenly lifts his head towards the window. It was raning heavily and forcely, making the rain water hitting down forcefully, making Milind's vision blurr of the view of the figure that was standing near the window of Ayesha's house.
