Aashna.......Sujal&Kashish.....Last Part....8/30 - Page 114

It was now the morning of diwali...Kashish opened her eyes and lnoked at Sujal's side but he was not there...she just lied there for a moment thinking about what had been happening in the last few days and then she got up and went to the washroom to get changed...after 15 minutes she came out wearing beautiful red saree as today is diwali......she sat down infront of dresser and got ready as how sujal likes...........She gets up and walks towards the window and looks down but his car wasnt there.......she was wondering about that where can he go in this early morning....she clean the bedroom and goes downstaris........She just looked at the house and then started to decorate the house with flowers and lights making it look like a perfect house for diwali...when the doorbell rang...she looked at the door and went and opened it when she saw Angad and Kripa stood at the door holding gifts and some sweets...

Kashish; aap dono itni subaah...what a plesant surprise.....

Kripa: happy diwali Kashish...

She moves forward and hugs her..

Kashish: Happy Diwali to you too Kripa...

Angad: Happy Diwali Kashish...waise Sujal kahan hai?dikhayi nahin de raha kahin..

Kashish: Sujall....woh abhi abhi bahar gaya hai....pucha to bola ki surprise hai....ab tum dono bahar kyun ho...andar to aao...

Angad just looks at Kripa and then they walked inside sitting on the sofa...

Kripa: Kashish...main jaanti hoon ke tumhare aur Sujal ke beech me problem chal rahi hai...tumhe chupane ki zaroorat nahin hai

Kashish: aisi koi baat nahi Kripa....bs choti si problem hai lekin woh bhi solve ho jayegi...

Kripa: Kashish...aisi choti choti problems ek din badi bhi bansakti hain...shaadi me thoda to compromise karna parta hai...kahin baar hume apne faisle ke khilaf jaana parta hai ek doosre ko khush rakhne ke liye..kabhi kabhi hume apni zidd chodni padti hai...tumhe ab is rishte ko kamyab banana hoga Kashish..

Kashish: main janti hoon Kripa ...lekin kya sare compromise main hi karungi....aur jo main kar rahi hoon woh main sirf SK aur Sujal ke liye to kar rahi hoon...

Kripa: Kashish main samaj sakti hoon...lekin agar tum dono me se koi ek apni zidd nahin chodega to tumhara rishta toot bhi sakta hai...Sujal agar apni zidd nahin chod raga to tum chod do..hamesha aisa thodi na hoga..

Kashish: main koshish karungi.....lekin Kripa maine kabhi nahi socha tha ki Sujal mera saath chod dega is tarah beech me...

Kripa: aisa nahin hai...agar usne tumhara saath chodna hota to kabka chod deta...woh aaj bhi tumse bohat pyar karta hai aur tumhara saath woh kissi haal main bhi nahin chodega...tum dono ka nazariya alag hai lekin pyar to tum ab bhi ek doosre se karte ho...yeh sab zaroori nahin hai...khair tum apni taraf se koshish karna...abhi hum chalte hain muje mama se milne jaana hai...yeh mithai aur kuch gifts tum dono ke liye...apna khayal rakhna...bye

Kashish: thik hai main aaj use baat karke is zagde ko khatam karne ki koshish karungi....tum dono bhi apna khayal rakhana.....bye.....

Kripa: all the best Kashish...

Angad: ab hum nikalte hain Kashish...and don't worry main jaanta hoon ke sab theek hojayega...woh zyada waqt tumse naraz nahin rehsakta...take care bye...

Angad and Kripa leave from there leaving Kashish behind..Kashish sits down on the sofa thinking about what Kripa just said.......she looks on the side where thier pic frame is on the side table....she picks it up and looks at Sujal....

Kashish: Sujal.....aaj kya mujse itni badi galti ho gayi ki mera chehra bhi nahi dekha....aur aaj to meri pehli Diwali thi....main chahti thi ki aaj sabse pehle main tumhara chehra dekhu....tum muje sabse pehle wish karo....lekin tum to mere pass hi nahi aaj...Sujal jab tumhe yeh vaada nibhana hi nahi tha to kyun muje aaj ke din ke sapne dikhaye......I am sorry Sujal....lekin ple mujse is tarah naraz mat rahi....

a tear droppes on the frame....she wipes of ther tears from the frame while placing it on the side table....she picks up the sweets and goes in the kitchen to put..

*******************************************************************************************

After an hour the door bell rang again...Kashish looked towards the door and was wondering who it could be..she went and opened the door and was surprised to see Sujal stood there..Kashish looked at him and doesnt say anything as she knew he is still angry at her.........she turned back and started to walk towards kitchen....when she heard her name from his mouth after 2 days.....Kashish just stood there not looking at him..He walked up to her and stood behind her...

Sujal: Kashish...happy diwali

Kashish closed her eyes and tears started to run ....She was so happy that he finally wished her today.......she wiped her tears ...

Kashish: Happy Diwali Sujal...

He came and stood infront of her and looked at her...he held her face in his hands and wiped away her tears...

Sujal: maine tumse kaha tha na main tumhari aankhon me ansoon nahin dekhna chahta...aur aaj ke din to bilkul nahin..

Kashish didnt say anything and just hugges him so tight while still crying....He just wrapped his arms around her tightly whilst closing his eyes...it had been so long since he held her this close..

Kashish: I am sorry Sujal.....ple muje maff kardo...lekin mujse is tarah naraz hoke muje akele mat chodo ..

Sujal: shhh...kya koi insaan kabhi khud se naraz rehsakta hai...chahe koi bhi problem kyun na ho...mera pyar tumhare liye kabhi kam nahin hoga...aur main tumse durr to kabhi ho hi nahin sakta warna main kaise jiyunga?...i'm really sorry too Kashish...shayad maine kuch zyada hi boldiya tha...main tumhare maamle me kuch zyada hi protective hoon...

Kashish moves back and looks at him.....she holds his face in her plams and looks into his eyes........

Kashish: kuch galtiyaan tumne ki ....kuch maine bhi ki....lekin aaj ke bad hum dono me se yeh galti dubara koi nahi karega.....kyunki hum dono bahot hi achche se jante hai ki hum ek dusre ko kitna dard de rahe hai

Sujal: main tumse vaada karta hoon Kashish ke aaj ke baad main koi bhi problem hamare beech nahin aane dunga...aur na hi meri wajah se tumhe koi bhi dard hoga...yeh ek hafta mere liye sabse mushkil tha...maine tumhe kitna dard pohanchaya woh main jaanta hoon...lekin ab bas...ab aisa kabhi nahin hoga..

Kashish: tum sahi keh rahe ho....kya hamara pyaar sirf itna hi hai ki ek choti se problem ne hum dono ko ek dusre ke khilaf khada kar diya....hum kyun ek jaisa nahi soch sakte....kyun hum dono ke khayalat aaj ek dusre se judte nahi.....kya hum apni soch ko ek nahi kar sakte Sujal...

Sujal: aaj ke baad hum har faisla mil kar karenge...hamari soch aaj se ek hi hogi...kyunki hum milkar har mushkil ka hal dhundenge...na ke hum ek doosre ke khilaf khade honge...jab hum ek hain to humari soch bhi ek hogi...

He moved his head to the right and kissed her palm..

Kashish: Sujal...promise me ki aaj ke bad tum kabhi muje bina bataye kahi nahi jaoge....pata hai Subaah se main kitni darr gayi thi...nahi tum apna phone utha rahe the....aur nahi tum kuch batake gaye...

Sujal: i'm really sorry Kashish...aaj ke baad aisa nahin hoga...main kissi zaroori kaam se gaya tha...woh kya hai tumhe baad me pata chal jayega...ab filhaal tum mere saath chalo...hume kahin jaana hai..

Kashish: Sujal kaha jana hai....

Sujal: woh tumhe thodi dair me pata chal jayega... tum chalo to sahi...

Kashish: Sujal.....aaj mera kahi aur jane ka mann nahi....aaj kitne dino bad sabkuch thik hua hai....main aaj sara din sirf tumhare saath rehna chahti hoon...

Sujal: tum mere saath hi rahogi...lekin jo gift maine tumhare liye liya hai kya tum usse nahin dekhna chahti?...aur uske liye to hume jaana hi hoga..

Kashish Gift?...kaisa gift....

Sujal: jaan tumhe pata haina ke main kabhi bhi surprise nahin batata...isliye ab koi sawaal nahin...hum chal rahe hain bas..

Kashish: ek minute....tumne abhi abhi jo kaha woh phir se kehna...

Sujal: kya kaha maine?..bas itna hi ki tum mere saath chalo..

Kashish: Sujal bano mat....aaj kitne dino bad tumne muje is naam se pukara hai....ek bar phir se kahona..ple Sujal...

Sujal just smiles and wraps his arms around her waist pulling her closer...

Sujal: i love you jaan..

Kashish: I love you too jaan............I love you so much...

He just bends forward and places his lips on her forehead...

Sujal: ab chalen jaan?

Kashish: hmm...chalo...

He lets go of her and then he held her hand in his and they both went to the car and drove off..

*******************************************************************************************

After 30 minutes they both reached a mandir and Sujal parked the car...he just looked at her and smiled and then got out...he opened her side of the door and she got out...

Kashish: Sujal hum yaha kya kar rahe hai....

Sujal: aaj diwali hai...to maine socha hum pehle mandir ho aate hain..

Kashish: lekin main aur mandir...

Sujal: kya hua jaan...kya tum pehle kabhi mandir nahin gayi?

Kashish: nahi gayi....kyunki muje inse bahot si sekayat thi,,,

Sujal: lekin ab to nahin hain...aur main hoon na tumhare saath...tum fikar mat karo main tumhe sab samja dunga...tum chalo...

Kashish: thik hai....ab lagta hai tum nahi mannewale...

she steps out of the car....

He just smiles at her and then closes the door...he locks the car and then holds her hand...they both started walking towards the stalls selling the thali's...

Sujal: sabse pehle to yahan se pooja ki thali leni hai...

Kashish: thik hai.....hmm...muje woh wali chhaiye....

she points at the thali on right side...Sujal smiles and then buys the thali she had pointed to...after getting it they started walking towards the mandir...Kashish was going to climb the steps when he stopped her...

Sujal: Kashish...pehle joote utaarne honge tumhe...ek minute..

He bent down and opened the straps of her sandals as she was holding the thali...

Sujal: ab utaaro phir chalenge..

Kashish: Thanks jaan..ab chale...

She takes off her shoes and starts to step up...He takes off his shoes and then follows her...they reach the top and go stand infront of the murti's...she was holding onto the thali and looking at him...when he came and stood behind her holding her arms from the back and rotating them...

Sujal: aarti aise karte hain...

Kashish looks at the other people who were looking at them...

Kashish: Sujal...sab dekh rahe hai hume...

Sujal: to kya hua?...dekhne do na unhe...kamsekam dekhne ke baad in me se aadhe logon ke dil me bhi pyar jaagega apne partners ke liye...muje koi problem nahin..

Kashish just smiles at his words...

Kashish: kamsekam mandir me to aisi baatein tum rehne do..

Sujal: kyun jaan...ab bhagwan to har jagah maujood hote hain to agar ghar pe main aisa kar sakta hoon to bhagwan ke ghar me kyun nahin?

Kashish: tumse to ulajna hi bekar hai.....ab hum apni baatein ghar jake tai karenge....pehle hum apni prathna kar lete hai..

Sujal: haan good idea...ab yeh thali hum pundit jee ko dete hain...

When the pundit walks upto them and they pass him the thali...Sujal then joined her hands whilst his were joined on top of hers...

Sujal: ab aankhein band karke tum prathna karo...jo bhi chaho aaj tum maanglo..

Kashish: jo bhi mangugi woh sach me milegana...

Sujal: pakka milega...kyunki agar bhagwan ne tumhari khwaish nahin poori ki to main kardunga..

Kashish closed her eyes and wish for something.....than slowly opens her eyes looking at him..

Sujal: ab batao...kya maanga tumne?

Kashish: woh kal bataungi...abhi chale...

Sujal: kal kyun?

Kashish: kyunki abhi abhi to khwaish mangi hai to abhi kaise bata doon...

Sujal: acha theek hai...jaisa tum chaho...chalo...

He lets go of her and then they both start to walk away from the mandir after doing there prayers...they reach the car and Sujal drives off...

*******************************************************************************************

Sujal had been driving for about 25 minutes and Kashish just sat there looking outside the window...when she noticed it was getting quieter and there was no cars on the road or people walking...it was just them...after 10 minutes they reached a beautiful beach...there was nothing else but a beautiful beach house which was fully lighted up...Sujal stopped the car near the house and looked at her...

Sujal: chalen Kashish?

Kashish: Sujal...is waqt tum muje kis ke ghar le ja rahe ho..

Sujal: tumhi jaana chahti thi na ke main kaunse gift ki baat kar raha hoon...to yeh rahi tumhari gift...welcome to your home Mrs Garewal...

He got the keys and passed them to her..

Kashish: mera ghar.....mera ghar to woh hai Sujal jaha hum rehte hai...to phir yeh kis liye..

Sujal: bas aise hi tumhare liye meri taraf se ek tohfa...main jaanta hoon ke bachpan se tumhe beach house kitne pasand hain...isliye maine tumhare liye yeh ghar kharida...yeh jagah maine do mahine pehle hi pasand karli thi...bas aaj subah hi maine tumhare naam isse register kiya aur chabiyaan lekar aaya...ab yeh sirf aur sirf tumhara hai...jab bhi tum Mumbai ki bheed se tang aajao to hum yahan aa jaayenge...

Kashish: Sujal...tumhe pata hai....tumne meri her khawaish ko batane se pehle hi pura kar diya hai.....aur mera yeh ghar to bilkul mere khwabo ki tarah hai...bilkul aisa hi tha....aur isi tarah tumhare jaise Pati ka khwab dekha tha......aur ab sabhi pure hote ja rahe......Sujal aaj main bahot bahot bahot khush hoon lekin aaj mere pass tumhe dene ke liye kuch nahi..

Sujal: muje jitna chahiye tha usse barkar tumne muje diya hai Kashish...maine tumhara saath maanga to tumne muje apna pyar bhi de diya...jab maine tumse tumhare gumm maange to tumne muje apni khushiyaan bhi dedi...ab isse badhkar muje aur kya de sakti ho tum...

Kashish: aur aaj ek aur vaada bhi karti hoon ki aaj ke bad main kabhi tumhare khilaf nahi jaungi...

Sujal: tum kabhi mere khilaf nahin thi Kashish...hamare khayalaat alag the jinki wajah se hum apni zidd nahin chod paye..lekin abse hum har faisla mil kar karenge...chahe humari soch ek kyun na ho...hum milke apni soch ko ek karenge...tabhi humara rishta ek kamyab rishta banega..

Kashish: aur aaj se woh her koshish karenge jo humne nahi ki aaj tak...

Sujal: haan kyunki humari soch se badhkar agar kuch hai to woh hai humara pyar aur humara saath jisse aaj ke baad hum kabhi bhi kamzor nahin padne denge..

Kashish: hmm..I love you jaan...

Sujal: i love you too jaan...ab andar chale ke raat bhar yahin rehne ka irada hai?

Kashish: andar chalte hai...muje bhi apna ghar dekhna hai...

Sujal: aur tum usse dekhti reh jaogi kyunki andar ek aur bhi surprise hai...to chalen?

Kashish: surprise?....

Kashish takes the key from his hand...and walks towards the door....she unlocks the house and opens the door... When he followed her with a smile...she walked in and was surprised to see every wall filled with their photographs from there wedding to their honeymoon...every wall had a captured moment...the whole house was beautifully decorated and lit up... Kashish looks at the house with teary eyes.........she walks towards the mail wall which they have wall size of their wedding pic.......Kashish just stands there running her fingers over the pic.......Sujal comes and stands behind her whilst placing his hand on hers...he moved his head closer to hers...

Sujal: kaisa lagga mera surprise?

Kashish: khawab se bhi jyada khubsurat...

He just smiles and places his head on her shoulder whilst looking at her and gently placing his hands around her waist...

Sujal: woh to tum bhi ho...

Kashish: woh to main hamesha se hi lagti hoon tumhe..

Sujal: ab tum ho tabhi to lagti ho naa...

Kashish: ab yaha aake kya karne ka irada hai....aur aapne to abhi tak hume yeh bhi nahi bataya ki diwali me aur kya hota hai...

Sujal: oh haan...to sabse pehle kya kiya jaaye...haan aisa karte hain ke sabse pehle hum rangoli banate hain...tumne kabhi banayi hai?

Kashish: Sujal...muje to yeh bhi pata nahi Rangoli kya hoti hai...

Sujal just smiles at her...

Sujal: tum fikar kyun karti ho...main batata hoon na tumhe...yahan aao...

Sujal lets go of her and then holds her hand taking her towards the entrance of the house...he goes to the side table and picks up trays with different colours and places them on the ground...

Sujal: haan to yeh rahe alag alag rang...ab jo bhi rang acha lagge usse haath me lekar aise yahan sajana hai...

Sujal takes some red powder in his hand and shows her exactly how to do it...

Sujal: samaj gayi na tum?

Kashish: hmm....samaj gayi main.....waise kya banana hai...

Sujal: aisa round banana hai alag alag rangon ke saath...aur beech me alag kisam ka design...jaise tum chaho..

Kashish: hmm thik hai....

Kashish takes some yellow powder and starts to make designs........Sujal was just looking at her because she was so lost in the rangoli........when strand of her hair just fall on her face.....she tries to put them back with her hand........the yellow color gets on her cheek...Sujal just looks at her and starts laughing...he gets his cell phone and takes her picture when she turned to him...

Sujal: so cute jaan..

Kashish: Sujal tum has kyun rahe ho ....aur kya cute lag raha hai....

Sujal was still laughing and then bends down next to her showing her the picture...

Sujal: yeh dekho...kitni cute lag rahi ho tum...

Kashish:huhhh...jaan yeh kab laga..

Sujal: bas abhi abhi jab tumhari yeh zulfein tumhe pareshan kar rahi thi aur tum inhe peeche hata rahi thi...ab aise kaamo ke liye main hoon na...tum kyun takleef kar rahi ho...

He gently moves his hand towards her face...pushing the hair behind her ear and then he took his handkerchief out and wiped her cheek...

Kashish: to tum muje rang lagne hi kyun dete ho....agar tum meri madad karoge to aisa nahi hota...

Sujal: acha tho ab meri galti hogayi...theek hai...agar yeh baat hai to main hi isse sudharunga...

He takes some green colour and adds it to the rangoli...he then moved his hand touching his face...

Sujal: lo...hisaab barabar...ab mere chehre pe bhi rang hai...

Kashish smiles at him and than takes her end of saree and wipes his cheek...He just smiles at her whilst looking at her...

Sujal: ab theek haina?

Kashish: ab perfect hai...

Sujal: to Mrs Perfect Garewal...kya ab hum milke rangoli banaye?

Kashish: maine kab mana kiya....

He just smiles at her and then holds onto her hand...he made her pick some colour and then they both did the rangoli together whilst holding each others hands and looking at each other...

Kashish: Sujal..

Sujal: hmmm...kya hua?

Kashish leans back and moves towards his ear....

Kashish: I Love You...

Sujal just smiles and then bends down towards her ear and whispers...

Sujal: i love you too jaan...

His lips were constantly touching the tip of her ear...

Kashish: Sujal...Rangoli nahi banani...

Sujal: banchuki haina...ab aur rehne do...

Kashish: kyun rehne doon..

Sujal: kyunki ab tumhare pati dev romance ke mood me hain..

Kashish: ohh..aur aapka yeh mood kab nahi hota...

Sujal: jab bhi aap saamne nahin hoti tab...

He gently moves his lips towards the side of her neck...gently placing kisses on her neck...Kashish closes her eyes as soon as she feels his lips on her neck......she tries to get up but he just holds her hand and slowly pulls her towards him........He wrapped his arms around her arms and waist whilst moving down towards her shoulder...it was as though he wanted to drown in her love at that point...he just wanted to hold her so close forever...he started to kiss her shoulders passionately...

Kashish: Sujal...

But there was no response...he was completely lost in her to realise...

Kashish: Sujal...andar chale..

When he comes back to his senses and moves back letting her go...

Sujal: ermm...haan chalo...

Kashish gets up and gives her hand to stand up.......He just looks at her and then holds onto her hand with a smile and gets up... They both walk inside the house leaving a beautiful rangoli filled with color of Sujal and Kashish's love..They both walked in together hand in hand as Sujal was showing her around the house...Kashish was just lost in the beauty of it..

*******************************************************************************************

They had now reached their room when Sujal walked towards the closet...he took out a packet and then came towards her...he smiled and then held it out infront of her...

Kashish: Sujal...yeh...

Sujal: tumhare liye meri taraf se ek chota sa gift...tum kholo to sahi...

Kashish: ek aur....

Kashish smiles at him and than gets the package.....Kashish opens it while looking at him....there was a beautiful white and red saree in there............Kashish runs her fingers over it...

Kashish: bahot hi khubsurat hai....

Sujal just smiles...

Sujal: woh to hai hi...lekin jab tum pehnogi to iski khubsurati aur bhi badh jayegi...tum jaanti ho maine ek khwaab dekha tha ke humara ek aisa hi ghar ho samundar ke kinare aur main tumhe safed saree me samundar ki lehron me chalte dekhun...aaj main woh khwab haqeeqat me badalna chahta hoon...tum pehnogi na isse?

Kashish: zindagi ke her ek khawab ko jisne tumhari aankh ko dekha hai woh main zaroor pura karungi kyunki tumse jyada muje khushi hoti hai jab main tumhari aankhoin me pyaar aur hotho pe woh ek muskaan ko dekhti hoon to.....aur main aaj to tumhara khawan zaroor pura karungi kyunki aaj hum dono ke beech kitne dino bad sab kuch thik hua hai....tum ruko main bas abhi ise pehen ke aayi.......

Sujal: i love you jaan...aur sunno...tum pehen ke aao..tumhari saree me baandh dunga...

Kashish embarrsses and leaves for the washroom in smile..........Sujal just smiles and then sits on the bed waiting for her to come out.. after 10 mins she opens the door and comes out holding her saree folds...........she looks at him and lowers her eyes turning around ..... He just stood up from the bed as he saw her come...she looked just like an angel in white...he was seeing his dream become reality...he started walking towards her and as he took each step her heartbeats were increasing...he placed his hand on her bare waist sending a shiver in her body...he turned her around and looked at her...her eyes were still lowered...he gently took the folds from her hands and pulled her closer from her waist...he started doing her folds whilst his eyes were still on her...he then went forward and tucked her saree in...she started to breathe heavily as she felt his warm fingers on her stomach... She just looked up into his eyes but his eyes had intense charm......she looked down at her folds .......she wanted to say something but didnt have courage too...

Kashish: sujal...wohh....woh tum.......

Sujal: woh main kya?

Kashish: woh.....tum.....tum mera..ek kaam....

Sujal: kya kaam hai...batao

Kashish: woh....aaj mujse dori nahi ban rahi....

Sujal goes closer to her ear and whispers...

Sujal: to?

Kashish felt his hands reaching at the waist pulling her closer....

Kashish: to...to tum kar donge..

He just smiled at her and then walked up behind her as his hand ran along her waist...he let go of her waist and then gently moved her hair to the side placing it on her shoulder...he then held onto her strings and gently ran his hand along her back...she closed her eyes tightly...he bent forward and slowly placed his lips on her back... She closed her eyes even more while holding her saree tight in her both hands......he moves back and looks at her in the mirror...........he slowly turned her around facing him......... He gently placed his head on her shoulder as his hands ran along her back...he started to tie her strings whilst placing gentle kisses on her shoulder... she opens her eyes and looks at him and than leans forwards going deeper in his embrace... He had finished tying her strings and he just wrapped his arms around her holding her close to him...he moved her hair back and went closer to her ear whispering...

Sujal: agar koi aur kaam ho to batado...

Kashish: I love you Sujal....

He just smiles whilst tightening his hold on her...

Sujal: i love you too jaan...

Kashish: ab bahar chale,,,

Sujal: hmmm...chalo...

He lets go of her and then places his hand around her shoulder...they started walking towards the beach... Kashish holds his hand in hers taking him towards the water.......Sujal was surprised but then he holds her hand tightly and both walked inside the water to feel the water running through their feet;....: Sujal had his arm wrapped around her waist as he held her hand in the other hand...her head was resting on his shoulder...

Sujal: tumhe pata hai Kashish...aaj tum is saree me bohat khubsurat lag rahi ho...aaj tumhe dekh ke aisa lagga jaise jannat se koi pari utar ke meri zindagi me aagayi ho...

Kashish: ab tumhari baahein mere liye jannat hai to main tumhari zindagi se kaise durr jau....aur Kashish ki khubsurti uske Sujal se hai..

He just smiles and gently kisses her forehead...

Sujal: agar tumhari khubsurati mujse hai to Sujal ka wajood bhi apni Kashish se hai...main tumhare binna kuch nahin hoon...

Kashish: aur Kashish bhi Sujal Garewal ke bina kuch nahi....Thanks Sujal for this Diwali...main yeh Diwali kabhi bhi nahi bhul paungi kyunki yeh mere liye sabse khass hai...

Sujal: maine tumse vaada kiya tha na ke main tumhari pehli diwali ko yaadgaar banaunga..to main tumse kiya hua vaada kaise na pura karta....meri zindagi ka maksad hi tumhare sapnon ko poora karna hai...aur main zindagi bhar tumhare sapne poore karne ki zimmedaari leta hoon...aur isse nibhane ka vaada karta hoon..

Kashish; aaj subaah ek pal ke liye muje laga ki tum apna vaada bhul gaye.....I am sorry Sujal maine tumhe phir se galat samja..

Sujal: nahin Kashish...isme tumhari bhi koi galti nahin...hamare beech jo haalaath paida hogaye the unhone tumhe aisa sochne par majboor kardiya tha...lekin i promise ab aisa dubara nahin hoga..

Kashish: I promise too Sujal...ki main aajke bad tumse kuch nahi chupaungi.....

Sujal: chalo...ab to sab kuch theek hogaya na...ab hum is baat ko bhool jaate hain..

Kashish: hmm...bhul gayi....

Sujal: thats like my jaan...i love you...

Kashish: I love you too......

They just held onto each others hand whilst smiling when all of a sudden it began to rain...they both looked up at the sky and then each other...

Sujal: kitni ajeeb baat haina Kashish...hum jab jab ek saath hote hain...jab bhi khushian humari zindagi me dubara aayi hain to yeh baarish hamesha hi humpe barsi hai...ab to aisa lagta hai jaise yeh baarish hamare pyar ki saakshi hai...

Kashish: jab hum hi dusro se alag hai to yeh ajeeb to lagega hi.......agar hamara ek hona aur barish ka hona ek hai...........aur Sujal agar tumhari yeh baatein sach hai to main nahi chahti ki yeh barish kabhi bhi ruke...

Sujal: yeh barish tham bhi gayi tab bhi tumhare liye mera pyar kabhi kam nahin hoga...and i promise ke main tumhare har pal ko khubsurat banadunga..

Kashish: Sujal.....ab andar chale...hum pure bheeg rahe hai....

Sujal: haan chalo...

She was about to walk towards the house but he didn't let go of her hand...she turned back and saw him smiling...he then let go of her hand and moved forward lifting her of her feet and picking her up in his arms...he then started to walk towards the house...she looked at him in surprise.......she puts her arms around his neck placing her lips on his cheek.......she moved back nd hugged him so tight......after sometime they bothe reach to their dream house....He walked up into their room and placed her on the ground...he saw that she was completely wet and as she was wearing white,her saree was sticking to her...he moved his gaze and went towards the closet taking out a towel and some clothes for her...he walked upto her but didn't look at her as he didn't want her to feel uncomfortable...

Sujal: Kashish tum bheeg gayi ho...jaa ke change karlo

Kashish looked at him and understands his thoughts.....

Kashish: Sujal....tumhara pura hakk banta hai muje dekhne ka....is tarah se mujse nazre churane ki zaroorat nahi....

Sujal: jaanta hoon...lekin main nahin chahta ke meri wajah se tum uncomfortable mehsoos karo...main is tarah se tumpe haq jamane ka kabhi soch bhi nahin sakta..

Kashish just looked at him ...Kashish holds his face and kisses him on his forehead......she just goes into his arms holding him close to her...........He gently wraps his arms around her whilst running his hand in her hair...

Sujal: kya hua jaan?

Kashish: kuch nahi...bas aise hi tumhare kareeb rehne ka dil karta hai aaj...

Sujal just tightens his hold on her...

Sujal: main to humesha hi tumhare kareeb rehta hoon...tumhare dil me..

Kashish: pata hai muje...lekin phir bhi tumse durr hone ka mann nahi karta...

Sujal just smiles...

Sujal: to kisne kaha hai tumhe durr hone ko...meri yeh baahein to sirf aur sirf tumhare liye banni hai isliye tumhe meri baahon me rehne ka poora haq banta hai...

Kashish: aur main bhi to apna hakk kisi ko bhi nahi deti..

Sujal: bilkul theek karti ho tum...ab jab main sirf aur sirf tumhara hoon to tum kyun apna haq kissi aur ko do...

Kashish: ab main jau...

Sujal: kahan?tumhe to mere kareeb rehna tha na..

Kashish: tumhe change nahi karna kya...pure bheeg gaye ho..

Sujal: haan woh to hai...lekin pehle tum warna kahin tumhe sardi na hojaye...ab yeh kapde aur towel pakdo aur jao change karlo...

He moves back and passes her the clothes and the towel..Kashish just looks at him and gets her clothes from his hand leaving for washroom....He just smiles and then goes to the closet taking out his clothes...he then waits for her to come out..after 10 mins she comes out in simple light green salwar suit.....Sujal looks at her and smiles...........

Sujal: bohat khubsurat lag rahi ho tum is rang me...

Kashish: ab tarif ho gayi to tum jake kapde badlo....tab tak main neeche kitchen me hoon........kyunki ab muje bhukh lagi hai...

Sujal: oh...dal chawal banaye phirse?

Kashish: jee nahi....main aaj kuch akele hi bana lungi...ab itne dino se kuch to shikh hi gayi hoon..

Sujal: to yeh baat hai...chalo phir mein jaldi se taiyaar hokar aata hoon...

Sujal just smiles and leaves for the washroom whilst Kashish goes down into the kitchen..

*******************************************************************************************

After 10 minutes Sujal came out of the washroom and went downstairs where Kashish had prepared some food...Sujal smiled and sat down whilst she sat besides him and they both had a beautiful dinner together after so long as it seemed to them...after they had finished,Kashish was cleaning in the kitchen when Sujal came...he looked at her and then held her hand...

Sujal: Kashish...chalo na mere saath...isse aaj ke din to kamsekam rehne do

Kashish: lekin muje leke kaha ja rahe ho Sujal...

Sujal: tum chalo to sahi...abhi humari diwali adhuri hai...usse poora bhi to karna hai...

Kashish: ab raat ke hoti hi diwali puri hoti hai to ab kya karna reh gaya..

Sujal: jaan raat ke hote hi to asli diwali shuru hoti hai...ab chal rahi ho ke utha ke le jaaun?

Kashish: ek bhi moka tumhe milna chahiye...

Sujal: lagta hai mauka phirse mil hi gaya...

He lets go of her hand and then lifts her in his arms and starts walking out of the kitchen towards the outside...

Kashish: tumhe pata hai tum kya se kya bante ja rahe ho...

Sujal: kya se kya banta ja raha hoon main?

Kashish: Sujal Garewal se tum joru ke gulam bante ja rahe ho..

Sujal: wow...kya baat hai jaan...muje yeh naya naam sach me bohat achcha lagga...aur joru ka ghulam banne me kya harj hai?...muje to koi problem nahin...infact i love doing everything for you..

Kashish: Oh God....ab main is pagal ka kya karoon...yeh to din badin haath se ja raha hai...

Sujal just smiles...

Sujal: is pagal ko control karne ka bas ek hi ilaaj hai...tum muje jitna pyar karogi utna hi mera pagalpan kabu me rahega..

Kashish: aur naa kiya to..

Sujal: to...to din ba din main aur bhi pagal hojaunga...phir to kuch bhi hosakta hai...pagalon ka koi bharosa nahin...

Kashish: lekin main hoon na....pagal ko bahot achche se pyaar se sambhalungi..

Sujal: sach jaan?

Kashish: hmm....aaj ke din ki kasam...

Sujal smiles and gently kisses her forehead...

Sujal: i love you jaan

Kashish: I love you too...ab yeh to batao ki bahar kya kaam hai mera......

Sujal: woh to bahar chalke hi tumhe pata chalega...bas aagaye hain...

They both reach the door and then walk outside...when Kashish sees lots of fireworks on the floor placed in a big box..Sujal puts her down on her feet.....

Kashish: fireworks?.....tumne muje yaha iske liye bulaya...

Sujal: ofcourse jaan...ab inke binna diwali kaise poori hosakti hai..

Kashish: Sujal...I am sorry...lekin muje fireworks pasand nahi...

Sujal: kya!...lekin kyun?

Kashish: kyunki....kyunki muje isse bahot darr lagta hai...bachpan me ek bar haath jal gaya tha...

Sujal just holds onto her hand and gently kisses it...

Sujal: bohat dard hua tha tumhe?

Kashish: hmm....do din hospital me rakha tha....

Sujal: theek hai to rehne do...hum diya jala lete hain...chalo..

Kashish: Sujall....

Sujal: hmm...kya hua?

Kashish: muje madad nahi karoge fireworks jalane me...

Sujal just smiles...

Sujal: tum sach me jalana chahti ho?

Kashish: maine sirf do minute pehle jooth bola..lekin ab pakka sach bata rahi hoon..

Sujal: kya!..tumne jhoot bola tha!..aur muje lagga sach hai...lekin acha hi hua ke yeh jhoot tha...tumhe pata hai muje kitna dard horaha tha yeh soch kar ke tumhara haath jal gaya tha...

Kashish just smiles at him...

kashish: Jaan maine yeh jooth nahi bola tha.....mera sirf haath hi nahi balke pair bhi jala tha...aur main ek hafte ke liye hospital me thi...maine tumhe yeh is liye nahi bataya kyunki main janti hoon ki tumhe bura lagega...lekin tumhare liye yeh jaanna bhi to zaroori hai..

Sujal: kya!...tumhara pair bhi...yeh kaise fireworks jalaye the tumne...theek hai aaj main tumhe batata hoon ke kaise jalate hain...tumhara yeh darr to main durr karke hi rahunga..

Kashish: main bhi dekhti hoon ki kaise karte ho tum ....kyunki maine isi darr se pichle 22 saal se fireworks nahi jalaye..

Sujal: aaj ke baad tum zaroor jalaogi aur iski guarantee main leta hoon...ab chalo main tumhe batata hoon...

Sujal gets a firework from the box placing it on the floor and then some matches...he lights a match and then gives it to her...

Sujal: ab iski rassi ko thoda sa jalake peeche hatt jaana ok...

Kashish: thik hai...lekin Sujal...mere waha rehne pe hi fut gaya to..

Sujal: nahin phutega...main hoon na...tum bas ek baar jalake fauran peeche hatt jaana...main yahin tumhare paas hoon

Kashish: hmm.....

Kashish looks at him and than goes slowly towards the firework with a match...she lights up and about to move back when she felt that it didnt go through....but it really went through and it could blast at any moment....Sujal looked down and than at her...........Sujal just holds her hand and pulls her away..The firework flew up into the sky and lit up whilst Sujal hugged her tightly to comfort ho...

Sujal: maine kaha tha na ke kuch nahin hone dunga tumhe..

Kashish: sach me kuch nahi hua....jaan tumse ek aur sach kahoon...

Sujal: hmmm...kaho na

Kashish: pehle promise karo ki gussa nahi karoge..

Sujal: acha baba promise nahin karunga..

Kashish slowly removed his hand from her shoulder and looks at him taking few steps back continously talking to him...

Kashish: Sujal...tumhe budhu banana kitna aasan hai.....tumhe kya lagta hai ki meri wild life ko dekh ke main sach me fireworks se darti hoon.....college me sabse kyada new year ke din me hi karti thi....ek chota sa mazak kiya tumhare saath......

Kashish looked at him who was surprised ar her answer.........he started to walk towards her...

Kashish: Sujal...no tumne promise kiya tha....Sujal...ple kuch karna mat........

Sujal: acha...to mujse itna bada mazak...aur main yahan pagalon ki tarah tumhe bata raha tha ke fireworks kaise jalate hain...ab to nahin chodunga tumhe..

Kashish: Sujal...ple no...Sujallll...

Sujal: ab to kuch nahin hosakta jaan...sazaa to tumhe milegi iski...

Kashish: kaisi saza...

she was still taking steps backward...He was still continuously walking towards her...

Sujal: ek baar haath aao phir batata hoon..

Kashish: woh to kabhi nahi aaungi..

Sujal: yeh challenge hai..

Kashish: hmm...kyun aapko manzur nahi..

Sujal: ofcourse hai...aur is baar jeet sirf meri hi hogi..

Kashish: abhi dekhte hai...

Kashish smiles at him and than starts to run..

Sujal starts to run after her chasing her around the whole beach...he was trying his best to grab her but everytime she escaped...

Sujal: Kashish!...ruklo!

Kashish turned back looking at him...

Kashish: kya hua...harr gaye kya..

Sujal: itni jaldi...kabhi nahin..

He again started to run after her when after some chasing around he finally grabbed her...she lost her balance and fell down whilst he landed on top of her...he just gripped her tightly...

Sujal: so...kya kehrahi thi tum?

Kashish: main...main kuch bhi to nahi...

Sujal: nahin...shayad tum muje challenge kar rahi thi...

Kashish: kaunsa challenge muje to koi yaad nahi..

Sujal: oh really...aisi situation me to ache ache sab bhool jaate hain...abhi sazaa milegi to sab yaad ajayega..

Kashish: kaisi saza...

Sujal: muje satane ki sazaa..

He moved one hand towards her face whilst gently running his fingers along her lips..

Kashish: maine kab....

kashish just looks into his eyes pulling his fingers from her lips..Sujal starts to move his lips towards her...

Sujal: kabse to sata rahi ho tum muje...

Kashish: aur tum muje pichle 3 din se sata rahe ho uska kya...

Sujal: uski sazaa tum muje de sakti ho...lekin pehle meri sazaa to poori hojaye..

Kashish: pehle aap apnisaza sunle....aap ne 3 din se humko pyaar nahi kiya...hume apne pass bhi nahi aane diya....aur aap to humare kareeb bhi nahi sone aa rahe the...to in sabhi saza ka kya karoon...pata hai aapko kitna sataya hai hume...

Sujal moves back and lets go of her...

Sujal: ab isse badi saza mere liye kya hosakti hai...

Kashish: to phir tumne kya tai kiya hai apni saza ka...

Sujal: ab mere hisse me 3 sazaa thi to isliye maine tumhari sazaa ko maaf kardiya...ab do baaki hain tumhari taraf se...tum jo sazaa dogi woh muje manzoor hai..

Kashish: aaj jo saza tumhara dil chahe woh.,,'

Sujal: sazaa tumhe deni hai muje nahin..

Kashish: pyaar karne ki saza doon....

Sujal just smiles

Sujal: agar aisi sazaa dogi to koi pagal hi hoga jo manna karega..

Kashish: tum bhi to ek pagal hi ho....jo sirf ek hi kaam janta hai...

Sujal: acha...aur woh kya kaam hai zarra main bhi to sunu...

Kashish: kuch bhi nahi...ab chalke diwali puri kare...

Sujal: nahin...pehle tum batao..

Kashish: kya batau..

Sujal: yahin ke aisa kaunsa kaam hai jo main jaanta hoon..

Kashish: bata doon itni aasani se..

Sujal: itni asaani se kya matlab...ab kya karna hoga mujhe..

Kashish: thoda sa intzaar....diwali ke pure hote hi bata dungi jaan..

Sujal: tum aur tumhari sharatein...acha chalo...

She just smiles...he gets up and held his hand out for her,helping her up...they both went and lit some more fireworks together and then got some sparklers...Sujal lit one and passed it to Kashish and then stood behind her holding onto her waist whilst placing the other hand on her hand with which she had the sparkler...

Kashish: Sujal....aaj ki diwali kitni achchi rahi ..

Sujal: hmmm...woh to hai...ab jab tum saath ho to yeh diwali to khaas honi hi thi...

Kashish: nahi....aisi baat nahi...

Sujal: aisi hi baat hai...lekin ek cheez to main laana bhool hi gaya..

Kashish: kaun si...

Sujal: mithai...ab mun kaise meetha kare..hmmm...

He starts to think and then he smiles and gently kisses her cheek...

Sujal: chalo...ab to mithai ki bhi kammi poori hogayi..

Kashish: tum aur tumhari mithai...kisi din diabetes ho jayegi...

Sujal: haah...aapke liye to woh bhi manzoor hai...

Kashish: Sujal.....ab andar chale....kafi raat ho gayi hai...aur muje bhi ab sona hai...

Sujal: hmmm...chalo...

Kashish puts the fireworks on the side and blow off the candles which were there on the side...He just looks at her with a smile...

Sujal: sab hogaya to chalen?

Kashish: hmm.....
Sujal: waise main soch raha tha ke itna meetha khaane ke baad muje thodi exercise karni chahiye...tumhe nahin lagta?

Kashish: sahi keh rahe ho.....shaadi ke bad sach me tumhara weight gain ho raha hai....kal se tum joggers park ja rahe ho...

Sujal: kal se kyun...aaj hi se weightlifting shuru karleta hoon...

He moved closer to her and picked her up in his arms and started walking towards the house...

Kashish: ho gayi tumhari khawaish puri...

Sujal: haan ab to hogayi hai...

Kashish: Sujal tum bhi..

Sujal: main bhi kya?

Kashish: kuch nahi.....

Sujal: tum hamesha aadhi baat keh kar kuch nahin kehdeti ho...itna suspense kyun create karti ho jaan?...ab raat ko is baare me sochte sochte neend nahin ayegi..

Kashish: neend aayegi aaj kyunki tumhare pass aaj main jo rahungi..

Sujal: haan woh to hai...ab jab tum meri baahon me hogi to kaise neend nahin ayegi...

He carries her up into their room and then gently places her on the bed..

Kashish: kaha ja rahe ho tum..

Sujal: kahin bhi to nahin...kyun kya hua?

Kashish: nahi muje laga tum kahi ja rahe ho...ab chalo so jao....
Sujal: nahin to...main tumhare paas hi hoon...

He went on his side and lied down...she just looked at him for a moment when he held her arm and pulled her in his arms whilst gently caressing her back...he was holding her this close after so many nights and it felt like some one gave him a new life...she also puts her arms around holding his closer to her after havinf feeling in her heart that everything is again back to normal......Sujal kissed her forehead making her close her eyes while having a small smile on her lips.........Sujal moved his hand closing the light and than closed his eyes falling to sleep..........
