Part 5
Abhi put his hand on Nikki's shoulder and said, " I'll leave now but
whenever you're free just give me a call ok. You already have my number. "
Abhi walked out and Nupur walked up to Nikki.
" Tujhe lag tha kya hai. Yahan ke queen hai kya. Jo tu bole sab karenga ."
" Di, Armaan was"
Nupur cut Nikki short.
" Armaan was what ? he was trying to protect you . How much do u know this guy ? Barely he's Mayank's friend not yours. What if he saved your life ? That waiter in the restaurant took the screw out of your chicken Then why weren't you getting all cozy with him ? I expect you to day Sorrry to Armaan This is not how you're going to treat him Just because I let you free doesn't mean you're going to treat people like trash . "
" Di OK Thanks for the lecture when you can't handle your own relationship without getting into fights then Why are you advising me. Khud ko pehle dekho phir apna mouth kholo. "
But guilt crept up Nikki she was right but was she. Her palms got sweaty , her tummy started hurting. She felt as if she had been caught doing something she shouldn't have been doing. Like robbing a bank where she was caught.
" Di I'm sorry " Nikki hugged Nupur and started crying " It's just that everybody was I don't know I was being a jerk please don't be mad please.
" Go say Sorry to Armaan if you really mean it Nikko ."
Nikki started walking towards the room Umm what will Armaan think will he be mad at me? Nahi I'll give him time to cool down then I'll go. But what if I don't go and he thinks I don't care about him? Nikki stopped her steps and walked back to the room. She put her hand on the knob. "But what if soo ma dthat he breaks my head ? " She quickly turned around and went back " but then he'll think I don't like him then we'll never be together again. " She gathered up the courage and walked in.
Armaan was just sitting there like a statue for a moment Nikki got scared.
She managed to squeak out, " Ammy "
He didn't turn
" Please talk to me . please please I'll do anything. Amu please na. "
" You don't have the right to call me that " Armaan replied sharply.
Nikki got worried Armaan never ever talked to her like that not even when she slapped him . This was going to be really serious she could tell.
" Armaan ok don't talk just listen. I'm sorry for what I said. It was just you were with Pritu and I was all alone and everybody had somebody and then like I was mad then like I met abhi and but like he showed up and I got all confused and lost and I have no freaking idea what I'm talking about right now but I just don't want you to be mad at me anymore I said Sorry. Sorrry sorry Sorry SORRY !!!!!!!!!!!!! Sowwy please forgive me. "
Armaan turned around with a jerk. Nikki was shocked to see his face his eyes were red and blotchy, his face was tear stained while tears where running down. She was the cause of this she'd never be able to get over this horrible feeling. Why was she soo bad?
Nikki got pushed against a wall . She could feel him breathe on her.
" Why do you care ? Don't you have that angelic guy outside he's the one who got you this dress and a drive here and saved you from dying 100 times. Right ? So why don't you just go to him. ? "
" Armaan you don't understand'"
" I don't understand What ? I don't understand Why in the world you're being such a dufus."
" I'm saying sorry na . "
" You always make mistakes and always say sorry . Sorry isn't the solution to everything."
" What do you want me to do ? I'll do it I promise."
" I want you to call up Abhi right now and tell him that you never ever want to see his face again. "
" What ?!!?!? I can't do that . "
" Why ? "
" Because ."
" Because what? "
"Armaan I won't do it"
"Fine then the door is open, you may leave"
While Armaan looked away, Nikki had tears in her eyes.
Nikki ' I didn't expect this from you.
Armaan looked at her in shock.
Armaan ' matlab?
Nikki ' remember you promised me you will never be mad at me' our friendship will last forever but today it seems like I've lost my true pal.
Armaan took her face in his hand and wiped her tears.
Armaan ' Nikki please don't cry. I am just mad at the fact the way you behaved. Why did you support that brainless person instead of your friend?
Nikki ' what happened to you Armaan, is it really you? A person who has been always there for me no matter what. A friend whom I needed the most. A best friend with whom I could share anything without a hesitation. A true buddy, on whom I could rely on and cry on his shoulder holding him forever'.
Now Armaan had tears in his eyes.
Nikki ' you were always nice to me no matter what I did or whatever decisions I made for you and now today you're making such a big deal out of this small little thing . You always respect my decisions then why are you telling me to do something which I am not willing to? I know if I do it I'm gonna lose out on somebody and believe me I would because you are worth much more to me than Abhi is . And if you really want me t do it and you think that's the only way possible to solve this then just tell me because you know this I know and the whole world knows that you are the most important person to me ever.
Nikki cried even harder but she continued.
Nikki - You were always there when I cried myself. You were also there when my life turned upside down. You were even there when my family was taken away from me. You always supported me in everything then what happened today? You're suddenly like this new guy that I don't know who's making me do things I really don't want to . I know I said I'd do anything but I didn't really expect this from you.
She began to stumble backwards but stopped when she knocks herself on wall. She had no where to go just like where her friendship had no ever to go just like there was this wall behind her , Abhi was being the block in their friendship.
Nikki ' Don't do this to me Armaan. You are someone whom I needed and I always will. Please forgive me.
Armaan was pleased hearing her words. " You know what Armaan ? " he told himself . Both were very emotional and crying.
He continued his thought outloud. " Somewhere inside I did this because I was insecure , scared of losing you to this new guy that I don't know maybe my way of acting was a defense mechanism to the way you were acting with him , Nikki . You treated him the special way you treat me and I guess somewhere inside . No wait not somewhere inside but obviously I was jealous. At college I'm never jealous becaue wo ladkoons ko patha hai wo tumare bajo main bhi aye to main unhe maroon ga. So There comes this guy and you're all close to him and I'm all lonely . "
Armaan ' I am sorry for being rude to you but I was really hurt.
Nikki ' I know but I really can't see you mad at me. I am really sorry
Armaan ' are you?
Nikki ' I really mean it; you know you mean a lot to me
They both wipe off each other's tears and share a tight hug. They stay there for minutes. Armaan remembers all the times he was there with her and he truly felt bad for everything he called her even though it wasn't outloud. And he thought , " Well , if nikki likes this guys soo much to itna bhi bura bahi hoga. " Nikki thought , " I'm soo stupid when evr I needed Armaan he was there like when ever even When I couldn't decide what to where to came 4 a clock in the morning to help me pick a dress and when my straightner was broken he stole his mom's and bought it for me. " She giggled and to make it worse Armaan tickled her a she squeled and ran around the room chasing each other and having pillow fights till a knock interrupted them. " Kaun hai ? " they screamed out in frustration.
" Nupur ," a voice came .
Armaan embarraseed hid under the bed. " I'm gonna get some cake while your dangerous sister looks for ways to hit me for troubling you. "
Nupur and Mayank enter the room after getting a response to their knock.
Nupur ' Nikki, did you talk to Armaan?
Nikki didn't utter a word but gave a mischievous smile at Mayank, giving a hint to tease her lovely sister, Nupur.
Nikki ' Di, was I really supposed to talk to that Monkey?
Mayank ' but even if you talk to monkey, how will he be able to answer you back Nikki?
Nikki ' exactly that is my point.. Monkeys don't understand human language
Nupur just looked at them in surprised.
Mayank ' I am surprised to know how the other one understand
Nikki ' you mean DI.
Mayank ' nah nah
Nikki ' Di, Mayank ne aapko bandariya kaha
Nupur face was turned red. She starts hitting him on his back. Then Nikki asked them to stop.
Mayank ' Ok Nikki why don't you just drop the idea of having talk to that Monkey?
Nikki ' I guess you are right
Nikki and Mayank give each other a naughty smile and looked at Nupur. A shocked Nupur couldn't believe it they were still talking nonsense.
Nupur ' Guys cut the crap
Mayank ' cut the crap Nikki
Nikki ' cut the crap Di
Mayank laughs out loud now.
Mayank ' ok Nikki, leave ma poor girl alone now' look at her angry face
Nikki ' As you order.. I am sorry Di.. We were just joking
Mayank ' Yeh I was just joking to cheer you up since you were really upset
Nupur just ignored Mayank and hugged her sister happily.
Nupur ' so did you guys patch up, Nikki?
Nikki ' kinda
Nupur ' what you mean by kinda?
Nikki ' well can't say anything till we celebrate
Nupur ' oh yeh of course' you just need a chance to celebrate
Nikki winks at Nupur.
Mayank ' actually she just need a chance to spend some time with him.. She will even forget us one day with his company.
Nikki shares a hug with Mayank and Nupur.
Nikki ' I don't know about Mayank Di but I know, the day will never come when I will forget u' so now give me some space since Armaan will be here soon'
Armaan comes with a cake.
Armaan ' yeh lo, I got a cake
Nikki ' wow
Armaan ' lets cut it now
Nikki ' ok we will cut it together
Nikki and Armaan cut the cake together and Armaan take a small piece in his hands and Nikki in hers.
Nikki ' Yeh lo' friends forever ke naam
Armaan ' always
Nikki and Armaan feed each other. And hug again.
" aww ! " Nupur squeals
" Mayank tum mere liya aisa kuch kyun nahi karta ho. "
" sorry Nupur but I didn't know monkey's eat cake I thought they stuffed themselves with bananas. "
" Ahhh I'm gonna kill you .. you retart.. stupid .. idiot .. ugly ' fta .. bawakuf ladka. "
" stop !!!!!" Nikki and Armaan yell together. " Chalo abhi , Evertone must be thinking where we are. "
As soon as they came outside They saw Priti fiddling around with the stereo system.
" mayank bhaiyya ! Yeh kaise chalta hai . "
" Wo actually maine aaj ssubho ko gira diya to tut gaya."
" You idiot mayank abhi hum log kya karenge. "
" Nikki can sing . " Armaan shouted out almost instantly.
" Armaan ' " Nikki groaned.
" Try na . "
Mayank grabbed his guitar and started playing some notes.
" La la la la la , ha ha ha hah ha , la ha ha ha Aye Ao." Nupur screeched like a monkey
" Maine kabhi socha ke yeh zindagi hai aur is ma wafa hi wafa hai . " Nikki started.
" Par jab se who mila hai . " she continued looking at Armaan.
" Kuch ajib sa ahsaas huwa hai."
" Mujhe nahi pata par lag tha hai ke mujhe jana hai hai hai . "
" Dosti se se se . " Nikki stopped trying to think what to sing next.
" Pyar tak ho ho . " Armaan continued for her.
" Yeh bandan tuta nah. " Priti joined in.
Nupur :
" Hum saath rahe is safar main . "
Mayank :
" Kushi ka damaan ho . "
Nikki :
" Pyar aur Dosti tuta nah par kuch bhi ho hum saath rahe. "
All :
" Dosti se Pyar tak ho ho . Yeh rishta tuta nah nah nah."
All :
" Dosti se Pyar tak ."
All :
" Maine kabhi socha ke yeh zindagi hai aur is ma wafa hi wafa hai . "
" Par jab se who mila hai . "
" Kuch ajib sa ahsaas huwa hai."
" Mujhe nahi pata par lag tha hai ke mujhe jana hai hai hai . "
" Dosti se se se . "
" Pyar tak ho ho . ".
" Yeh bandan tuta nah. "
" Hum saath rahe is safar main . "
" Kushi ka damaan ho . "
" Pyar aur Dosti tuta nah par kuch bhi ho hum saath rahe. "
Armaan , Priti , Mayank , Nupur :
" Aisa nah hua pehle to hum ko pata yeh pyar hai "
" Pyar hai , Pyar hai. "
Nikki :
" Pyar hai par dosti hi dosti ke saath rehna hai. "
" Dosti hai mujhe tumse ."

" Hua humhe Pyar tumse."
" Par yeh shuru hua hai Dosti se ."
" Dosti se Pyar tak"

Everybody clapped and cheered . But Nikki felt something she said to herself. " Yeh dosti hai ya Pyar whatever but everytime I see Abhi my dil sorta goes hmmmmm "
