Part 2:

Muskaan goes to a room and knocks. No response. She opens the door and goes in..

Someone is sleeping on the bed inside with a blanket covering him...Muskaan goes to the bed...and close to the person....his ear.......and......SCREEEAAAMMS!!!!!!!!

Muskaan: good morniiiiinggg!!!!!!

The person moves his blanket suddenly and gets up with a startle!!!

He is kind of in a state of shock...almost out of breath. Muskaan goes and sits by his side laughing heartedly. The person, coming back to his senses, notices Muskaan.

Person(irritated): kya di?..roz subah aise uthana zarori hai??

Muskaan: sorry..par kya karu..mere cute little brother ko is subah se milwane ke liye aisa karma padta hai na.

( this person is Muskaan's younger brother...the one she has been living for....her happiness.. her life..)

The person gives an irritated look to her and turns the other side.

Muskaan: Imran..I am sorry..

He still does'nt respond.

Muskaan: ab thode dino mein to tum college join kar loge..hostel shift ho jaoge..waha tumhe kaun jagaega..apna khayal rakhna khud seekho.itni der tak so rahe ho..abhi to tumhari life shuru hui hai..kitna kuch karma hai kitna kuch banna hai...aur tum ho ki.

Imran(cutting her in between):kar lunga sab kuch di...ab aap subah subah lecture to na de...aur me apna khayal khud kyu rakhu...aap ho na...

Muskaan smiles at his innocence.

Muskaan: ab ye sab chodo aur jaldi se ready hokar neeche ajao breakfast ke liye..university bhi jana hai fir ...admission ke liye.

Imran(now smiling): aap chaliye mein bas abhi aya...(saying this he lies down back on the bed)

Muskaan: Imrannnnn...

Imran( making a pleading face): di plzzz...bas 5 mins...

Muskaan just smiles at him and leaves the room.

She goes to her own room then to freshen up.

After a while she comes down to the breakfast table and notices Naazneen having breakfast hurriedly.

Muskaan : itni jaldi mein kyu kha rahi ho? Kaun si flight miss ho rahi hai? Naazneen: Muski tu bhi na...

Naazneen(khate khate hi bol rahi hai):Ishika ne bulaya hai...koi bohot important kaam hai use.(Ishika is some college friend)

A woman in her late 30's is serving breakfast there. She put a little more porridge in Naazneen's plate.

Naazneen: are Sulekha aunty bas kijiye...moti ho rahi hu mein.

(Sulekha is a helper in their house. A kind hearted woman, she is quite close to them..like a family member)

Sulekha is about to say something..when she hears a voice from behind..

Person: ha ha dekho kitni moti ho gayi..balloon ban gayi hai!

Everyone turns and notice a person coming down the stairs. He is in his late 40's...wearing a salwar kurta..with a warm smile on his face...

Naazneen(getting embaressed); sach bade abbu?

( the person is Feroz Malik...Muskaan's father and Naazneen's uncle)

Sulekha: ab chup kar tu..aur seedhi tarah khatam kar sab(pointing to her plate)...dieting kar karke dekho kya halat bana li hai apna...

Feroz comes and joins the breakfast table.

Sulekha: bhaijaan ab aap hi dekhiye inhe..(saying this she leaves for the kitchen)

Feroz (to Naazneen): khalo na beta...thoda sa to hai.

Imran,who has seen all this happening while coming down, goes to take the chair next to Naazneen and starts teasing her.

While Naazneen is trying her best to clear her plate, eating forcibly. Muskaan notices this.

Muskaan: Naaz.tumhe to late ho raha than na?

Naazneen: are haan...mujhe to jana tha!

She has some water kept nearby quickly and grabs the car keys...

Naazneen: bye everyone!

She rushes out of the house......leaving everyone smiling behind.

They continue to have their breakfast then with light chit-chats.

Muskaan gets done with hers and is about to get up when..

Imran: di....aap mujhe Cris ke ghar drop kar dengi....me usi ke saath university chala jaunga...

Muskaan: uske saath? Tum dono kaise manage karoge bacche ho..me bhi chalungi saath mein.

Imran: di plzz... mein manage kar lunga..itna to bada ho gaya hu...aur koi problem hui to aap ko phone kar dunga..

Muskaan: kaha na nahi....

Feroz(interrupting)jaane do Muskaan use...zara use bhi to duniya dekhne do..kab tak pamper karti rahogi...

Muskaan(still not convinced):par abbu...

Feroz:Muskaaannn..

Muskaan(giving in after a lot of thinking): theek hai abbu..

After everyone is done with breakfast Muskaan helps Sulekha to clear the breakfast table.....then goes to her dad's room to get his things ready as he too has to leave for office. Meanwhile Imran goes to his room to get his documents ready.

After a while Muskaan comes down and goes to the living room where her dad was.....

Muskaan:abbu..apke kapde nikal diye hai...aur baki apka office bag, cell, wallet sab kuch bed par hai..aur kuch chahiye aapko?

Feroz(smiling at her): nahi beta..aur kuch nahi chahiye...

Muskaan: to fir mein chalti hu...supermarket jana hai groceries lene..aur Imran ko bhi drop kar dungi..

Feroz: ok beta jao....

Imran comes down with his bag.

Imran: chale di?

Muskaan: ha chalo..

Muskaan: khuda-hafis abbu.

Imran: khuda-hafis abbu..

Feroz: khuda-hafis beta..

And both of them leave.

Muskaan drops Imran to his friends place and then heads to the supermarket.

She was on her way when she gets a call. She realizes its from their office and receives it.

Muskaan: hello?

Person: hello..muskaan bete...Abhey uncle bol raha hu.

(Abhey Malhotra is their office manager.)

Muskaan:Abhey uncle..boliye..

Abhey: bete wo naye project ke silsiley mein jo meeting rakhni thi wo tum hi attend karogi na? ya Feroz sir?

Muskaan: nahi mein hi karungi..kyu?

Abhey: bete ....investors chahte hai ki meeting isi week ho jaye..bohot insist kar rahe the..

Muskaan: theek hai..aap Sarah se baat karke meeting fix kar dijiye.

(Sarah is her P.A.)

Abhey: bete maine baat karli usse...sirf 29^th ka din free hai tumhara...pura din free hai...

(hearing this statement the glow on her face suddenly disappears.....and she slowly puts the car to a halt.)

She just sits there with the phone in her hand...not responding on the phone.

Abhey:hello..Muskaan....are u there?

She finally gets a hold on herself and speaks.

Muskaan: nahi uncle...us din nahi..

Abhey: par beta Sarah ne bataya ki baki saare din tumhari meetings aur dusre kaam hai...sirf yahi ek din hai..investors ko kya jawab denge..

Muskaan: wo job hi ho..but us din nahi...(saying this she disconnects the call)

She rests her head back on the car seat with the same gloomy look on her face and closes her eyes.

A tear flows down.. then another...as she thinks back of that same day..the 29^th of that month...7 yrs back..and everything starts flashing in front of her..

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

Flashback

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

Muskaan: relax mama sab theek ho jaega..abbu doctor se baat kar rahe hai...

She moved the hair strands coming on her mom's face as she sat beside her. Her mother just smiled weakly lying there on the hospital bed.

Mom: kyu dilasa de rahi hai..mujhe pata hai ab kuch nahi ho sakta...waqt bohot kam hai mere paas'

She herself new what her condition was. Cancer had totally take over her. And the doctors had given up.

Muskaan cudnt see her mom like that and she started crying.

Mom( breathing a little heavily): beta...tu mujhse ek waada karegi?

Muskaan(still crying): waada?

Mom:ha..mujhse waada kar...(she puts her hand forward)..ki tu tere abbu aur Imran ka hamesha khayal rakhegi...khush rakhegi..kabhi naaraz nahi karegi unhe..

Muskaan(cudnt take it any more):mama aap ye sab...

Mom(her breaths were getting heavier by every passing minute): Tu waada kar mujhse...unhe kabhi meri kami ka ehsaas nahi hone degi..

Muskaan(gives her hand in her mom's);ha mama....i promise....

By then her mom's condition had worsened. Muskaan realizes it and runs out to inform her dad who was talking to the doctor in his cabin.

All of them rush to her mom's cabin. The doctor asks the nurse to get some things immediately and he himself goes ahead to check her. He takes her wrist...and is completely shocked. He checks a little more to ensure and then turns to them.

Doctor: I am sorry... she's no more....

Muskaan just stared at the doctor.. and then at her mom...as the doctor's words echoed in her ears....

Tears were heavily flowing down her eyes now as she sat in the car with her head laid back..as flashes continued to appear..her mom's dead body..and when the men were taking it away for burial..her breaking down on the floor...a 10 yr old Imran crying in her arms .....the days she spent after her mom......the emptiness in the house......in her life.....

Tears continue to flow....and she doesnt wipe them even once.....

Here ends the 2nd part..........

comments are eargerly awaited.......

love,

sana

thank you everyone for your comments...I hope you find the story further good enough...😊 😊

Part 3

Tears were heavily flowing down her eyes now as she sat in the car with her head laid back..as flashes continued to appear..her mom's dead body..and when the men were taking it away for burial..her breaking down on the floor...a 10 yr old Imran crying in her arms .....the days she spent after her mom......the emptiness in the house......in her life.....

Tears continued to flow...and she didn't wipe them even once....

It had been some moments like this when her cell starts ringing again and she picks it up from the deck. On seeing the number she wipes off her tears and receives the call'.

Muskaan: ha naaz..bol..

Naazneen: muski kahan hai tu?

Muskaan: mein..wo..( recollecting)..supermarket ja rahi thi...(wiping the remains of her tears)

Naazneen: are wo sab chod aur foran Reagents Park pohoch....ek bohot badi problem ho gayi hai...

Muskaan: kyu...kya hua?

Naazneen: wahi par batati hu... bas to jaldi se pohoch..

Muskaan(little tensed): ok...I'll be there in 10 mins...

She keeps her cell side. Then removes some wet tissues and cleans her face thoroughly checking herself in the car mirror. She didn't want Naazneen to get the slightest hint that she has cried'.nor anyone else.

She then starts her car and accelerating it heads towards Reagents Park.

She reached there as soon as she could as she was getting worried for Naazneen. She goes inside and looks for her but Naazneen wasn't there yet. She sits on a bench nearby waiting for her.

A lot of time had passed like that but Naazneen was nowhere in sight. Muskaan gets more worried now.

She was about to dial Naazneen's number when she felt a palm placed on her eyes blocking her vision. She gets alerted first..but then breaks into a smile.

Muskaan: naaz ye kya bachpana hai...

The person doesn't respond. Muskaan gets a bad feeling and she touches that hand on her eyes. She realizes it's a male.

She gets up with a jerk and moves the hand from her eyes turning to face the person.

Muskaan(surprised): tum??..

The person is about to respond when a voice interrupts him.

Naazneen: yaha ho tum ..kabse dhund rahi hu..

Person : ha wo.. Muski ko yaha baithe dekha to.

Naazneen : to.to socha ki ab Muskaan to agayi hai...to Naazneen ka kya kaam..

Person(teasingly): are ha! maine socha.jaan bachi us Bandariya se!

Naazneen : kya?kya kaha?

Naazneen gets irritated'.the person laughs at her and then moves towards Muskaan'

He gives her a light hug which she returns back smiling.

Person : kaisi ho?

Muskaan : thik hu Amaan..aur tum?wapas kab aye?

Person : aaj subah hi'.aur ate hi tumhari yaad agayi'.to socha mil hi lu...

Well! the person here is Amaan..Amaan Alavi..Muskaan and Naazneen's friend'.the three of them were classmates in college and share a great friendship since then'.

Naazneen : oh! itnt jaldi yaad agayi hamari'

Amaan : tumhari nahi'.Muskaan ki'

Naazneen : Amaan tum..

Amaan : ab tum zara apni bak bak band karo to mein Muskaan se baat karu'kyu Muski'.

Muskaan only gives him a weak smile.

Amaan notices her expressions and realizes that something is wrong. He gives a questioning look to Naazneen' but Naazneen herself didn't know so she just shrugs her shoulders.

Finally Amaan asks Muskaan..: kya baat hai..itni chup chup kyu ho?

Muskaan :kuch nahi'.bas aise hi'.tumhara trip kaisa raha?

Amaan : okk..ab ek long business trip adventurous to nahi ho sakta na!(giggles)

Naazneen : bad joke

Amaan : tumse kisne pucha'..Muski tum kaise jhel leti ho ise'.

Naazneen : jaise tumhe jhelti hai'.waise hi'.

Amaan : o god!!.Muski ise chodo tum meri baat suno..evening me ek party rakhi hai maine.. For all friends..tum 7 pm tak pohoch jana'

Muskaan : party?par achanak? kis liye?

Amaan : wo mein actually..(he is about to say something when he notices Naazneen signaling him a 'no')

Muskaan : kya hua?bolo..

Amaan is still staring at Naazneen trying to understand her expressions: hmmm.wo.

Naazneen : wo Muskaan aise hi...bas ek get together.

Muskaan : ok.

Muskaan : Naaz..tumne to kaha tha ki koi badi prob ho gayi hai..kya hua?

Naazneen : are kuch nahi baba'.bas is Amaan ka plan tha tumhe surprise dene ka.

Muskaan : oh!aur me aise bhagti bhagti ayi yaha'.by the way..tum office jaogi abhi?

Naazneen : ha..kyu tum nahi ja rahi?

Muskaan : me to market ja rahi thi'.but..ab to kafi late ho gaya..office hi chalte hai'.evening me office se ate hue chale jaenge..

Amaan : matlab tum dono ja rahe ho abhi..?

Muskaan : ha Amaan..kafi kaam pending hai..tum bhi chalo na..abbu se bhi mile kafi din ho gaye tumhe.

Amaan : okk.

Muskaan moves forward towards the car while Amaan pulls back Naazneen : tumne mujhe roka kyu Muski ko batane se?

Naazneen : are.wo pehle se upset dikh rahi hai..ab tum use batate ki tum India ja rahe ho to wo aur upset nahi ho jati? Nut!

Amaan : are ha!.ye to maine socha hi nahi..

Naazneen : kaise sochte Amaan.. Tumhare paas utni akal kaha..

Amaan : apni stupid baatein band karo aura age badho..she must be waiting for us..

So Amaan and Naazneen follow Muskaan and all of them leave for office...Malik Industries..

They get out of their cars in front of a huge state of the art building..in one of the most posh industrial areas in London. The watchmen takes their cars and they enter inside.

It's a busy office.. workers moving around notice the three of them entering and stop to greet them in between their work, while they move towards Feroz Malik's cabin.

Feroz is busy with some files when Amaan enters inside..Muskaan and Naazneen following him.

Amaan : may I disturb you uncle?

Feroz looks up and is surprised to see Amaan.

Feroz : Amaan beta!(he gets up and Amaan comes and hug him)

Amaan : kaise ho aap uncle?

Feroz(seperating) : bas beta thik hu..tum kaho....wo training ka trip kaisa raha?

Amaan : sab 1^st class uncle..aur aap ki tabiyat and all to thik hai na?

Feroz : wo bhi 1^st class hai.

They all take seats.

Feroz : acha ab tumhara business training course to khatam hua..batao office kabse join kar rahe ho?

Amaan : me to kal se hi kar du..bas aap appointment letter issue kar de is nacheez ke naam..

Feroz : are beta..tumhe formalities ki kya zarurat..jab jee chahe ajao..

Amaan : ok uncle..me to mazak kar raha tha.. But ha.mujhe yaha ane ki kaafi jaldi hai..(turns to Naazneen and winks..while she gives him an irritated look)

Amaan : ok uncle then..me chalta hu..are ha. sham ko ek party rakhi hai maine..aap bhi aiye na..

Feroz : are nahi beta...you all go and enjoy..shaam tak kafi thak jata hu me.

Amaan :..ok uncle.take care of yourself..me chalta hu.khuda hafis.

Feroz : khuda hafis beta.

He leaves and the rest get to their office work.

The day passes like that. The three of them stay busy in office and Imran in university with his friend Cris. Muskaan gets worried for him and gives him a phone call in the afternoon. He ensures her that everything is going smoothly and that he would return home by evening. So she too stays back in office and returns home by evening with Feroz and Naazneen.

Muskaan and Naazneen on returning home wind up all the house work hurriedly and even keep dinner ready for Imran and Feroz. They then get ready and leave for the party.

The party was in full swing when they reached and Muskaan gets surprised to see most of her college friends there..she was meeting them after such along time. Amaan had arranged a real happening and rocking party..and he sees to it that Muskaan enjoys there forgetting all about the bad mood she had earlier in the day'.whatever be the reason for it. And Muskaan was indeed enjoying a lot with all her friends around. It was like college times back for all of them.

Back in Malik Residence'..

Feroz was busy with sum work after dinner when he gets a call. He checks the number on the cell and a smile appears on his face.

Feroz : hello?

Person on the other side: assalam-walaikum bhaijaan..

Feroz : walekum-assalam Rahim..

Rahim'..Rahim Malik is Feroz's younger brother and Naazneen's father, staying in India with his family. Naazneen had shifted to London after completing high school in India and is staying here since then with Feroz.

Rahim : kaise ho aap? Aur bachhe?

Feroz : sab thik hai.. Tum batao. waha sab kaisa hai?

Rahim : thik hi hai bhaijaan'.wo Singhanias ke project details mail kiye the maine'.mil gaye aap ko?

Feroz : ha mil gaye..aur jald hi contract bhi mil hi jaega..

Rahim : insha allah!.

Feroz : aur sunao.. Kaisa chal raha hai waha sab?.

Rahim : kya sunau bhaijaan...ab aap aur bachhe to waha hai...me aur Farhat to jaise akele hi pad gaye..

(Farhat is his wife)

Feroz : tum kaha rahim.akela to me pad gaya hu..yaha.apno se itni dur pardes me'sare rishtedar bhi to wahi hai...aur tum bhi..

Rahim : to wapas ajaiye na bhaijaan.. Aisha bhabhi ke rehne tak bhi aap kabhi milne ajate the..par unke baad to jaise aap ne mu hi mod liya..

(Aisha was Feroz's wife and Muskaan's mom who is no more now)

Feroz : aisa nahi hai rahim..par ..unke jaane ke baad to sab kuch hi badal gaya.(his eyes get num while saying that..Rahim senses it)

Rahim : ab bohot hua bhaijaan.. ab aap aa hi jaiye..kabse se keh rahe hai ki sab wind up karke araha hu.. Itna waqt ho gaya sunte sunte mujhe..

Feroz : kya batau...tum to jante..ye business ke ups and downs..

Rahim : aap mujhe ye bahane na de..usi business ka ek hissa me yaha India me chalata hu..har cheez ki khabar hai mujhe..

(Both of them share the same business and Rahim handles the Indian office)

Feroz : thik hai me koshish karunga ki jald se jald yaha ka sab wind up ho jaye..mujhe khud ab yaha nahi rehna'

Rahim : ye thik hai..par tab tak kam se kam bachho ko to bhej dijiye..Naazneen bhi itne waqt se ayi nahi..wahi ki ho kar reh gayi wo to..

Feroz : are use kaise bhej du..usi se to ghar me itni ronak rehti hai..aur agar me kahu to bhi wo nahi manti'.kehti hai nahi jana aap sabko chod kar...khas kar Muskaan ko..ab dono saath hi to pale bade hai..ek hi umar ke..

Rahim : to is baar use bhi bhej di jiye na...har baar ye baat bhi kehta hu me..is baar aap teeno ko hi bhej di jiye, Imran ko bhi..

Feroz : bhai Imran to abhi nahi aa sakta..college join kar raha hai na..aur Muskaan ko to ghar aur office se fursat hi nahi...

Rahim : ha bhaijaan..(thinking something).. Par mujhe lagta hai ab aap ko muskaan ko bhej hi dena chahiye...bachpan me hi dekha tha use.aur aakhir use yahi to rehna hai..shaadi ke baad..behtar hoga agar wo yaha ghar par sab ke saath ghul jaye..aur wo dono bhi ek dusre se mil le'samjh le..aap samajh rahe hai na..me..

Feroz(thinking) : ha rahim shayad tum thik hi keh rahe ho..humne jo inke bachpan me tae kiya tha..shayad use pura karne ka waqt agaya hai..tum fikar na karo..is baar me use kisi tarah se bhej hi deta hu..waise aap ka beta hai kaha...itne dino se koi khabar nahi..

Rahim : thik hi hai bhaijaan..filhaal to out of town gaya hai'. ek deal ke silsile me..uske liye to bas kaam hi..

Feroz : ha janta hu...usse bhi milna hai..bachpan me hi dekha tha use'ab to bas kabhi kabhi phone par baat ho jati hai'

Rahim : aap aa to jaiye..fir khud hi dekh lena..

Feroz : hhmmm!

Rahim : thik hai bhaijaan.. Ab rakhta hu..apna khayal rakhiyega..

Feroz : ha Rahim.tum bhi..

Rahim : khuda hafis'

Feroz : khuda hafis'.(and he disconnects)

Here the party gets over and Muskaan and Naazneen return back home.

Here ends the 3^rd part..

Comments are eagerly awaited..

Love,

Sana

PART 4

'Kaash dil ki awaaz me itna asar ho jaye.. Ki hum aapko yaad karen aur aapko khabar ho jaye.. Jaise muskurate hai hum aapki yaad par.. Waise hi aapki ankhen bhi num ho jaye.. Chahat to naam hi hai intezaar ka.. Par ye pyaar.. ab mukammal ho jaye.. '

Muskaan puts the pen down. She picks up her diary and brings it close to her face. She stares at what she just wrote there and slowly a beautiful smile appears on her face.

Muskaan: pata nhi tum kaun ho... Kaha ho... Kaise ho... Kya tum mere bare me sochte bhi ho... Jaise me sochti hu.. Har din.. Har pal...

She gets up from the bed and goes to the window.

Muskaan: ye anjana sa rishta kab jud gaya.. kuch pata hi nhi chala... Pata hai to bas itna ki is duniya me.. Is zindagi me.. ek tumhi apne lagte ho.. Jaise mere har pal me.. Khushiyon me.. mushkilon me.. Har wo lamha jaha maine khudko tanha paya hai.. Tum mere saath rahe ho.. Ek khubsurat ehsaas bankar.. Meri himmat bankar...

She blushes slightly... : ....Pyaar bankar...

Muskaan : me bhi na.. (hits her forehead lightly) ... Mujhe to pata bhi nhi ki pyaar kya hota.. Kaisa hota hai.. Aur tum.. Tum to bas ek khwab ho.. Jo pata nhi.. kabhi sach hoga bhi ya nhi... Zindagi me abhi tak itna kuch dekha hai.. Pata nhi kismat ne aage aur kya likha hai...

She is lost in her thoughts playing with her pink dupatta. A voice interrupts her n gets her out of her thoughts.

Voice : Muskaan...

She recognises the voice and her eyes widen... : abbu!

Voice : kaha ho beta?

Muskaan : ji abbu bas ayi.

She quickly picks up the diary from the bed and hides it in her cupboard.

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

Feroz: kaha reh gayi thi beta.. Baitho lunch kar lo..

Muskaan: ji abbu..

She goes and joins them for lunch.

Feroz: kal Rahim ka phone aya tha..

Naazneen: abbu ka! Kya kaha kaise hai wo?

Feroz: bohot jaldi yaad ayi unki.. Unhe to laga tum unhe bhool hi gayi..

Naazneen: nahi bade abbu.. Bahot yaad aati hai.. Par..

Feroz(cuts her in btwn): yaad aati hai to mil ao na..

Naazneen doesnt respond. Just quietly stares at Muskaan.

Feroz: ha ha tum dono ki hi baat kar raha hu..

Naazneen(excitedly): kya? Muskaan bhi?

Feroz: ha tum dono hi.. Rahim bahot keh raha tha..

Muskaan: par abbu.. Me kaise..

Feroz: kyu nhi beta.. Waise bhi hume kuch dino me sab kuch wind up karke jana to hai hi.. To tum abhi hi chale jao.. Fir me kuch dino me ajaunga..

Muskaan: Imran?

Feroz: Imran to hostel ja raha hai.. To tum yaha raho ya India me kya fark padta hai.. Wo to hostel me hi rahega na..

Imran: di.. Abbu is right.. Aap jaiye..

Muskaan is still not convinced. She is just sitting there quietly, thinking.

Naazneen: Muski.. Amaan bhi India ja raha hai apne parents ke paas..

Muskaan: Amaan?

Naazneen: ha.. Humne tumhe bataya nhi tha ki tum upset ho jaogi.. Par ab to perfect hai.. (excitedly) Hum sab ja rahe hai to hum sab saath hi rahenge vaha!

Feroz: ye thik hai.. Me aaj hi tickets ka arrangement kar deta hu.. Ok beta?

Muskaan finally gives in.. : ji abbu..

Its been some days to the convo...they have winded up their house work and settled Imran in his hostel...after all he would be starting college now....after having completed his high school.

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

'Passengers are requested to fasten their seat belts as the flight is ready for take off'

Naazneen: i dont believe we are finally going. .

Muskaan: hhmm.. And i am glad yaha par sab wind up karke ja rahe hai.. Imran bhi settle ho gaya hostel me..

Naazneen: ya.. Kitne kam time me sab hogaya na..

Muskaan: ya.. Ab lets see what India has in store for us..

They smile at each other happily and sit back to enjoy their long flight.

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

We move our story to another part of the world..................

A young man gets out of a Mercendez Benz infront of the Mumbai International Airport. He is wearing a black formal suit with gelled hair. An elegant metal watch and sunglasses are completing his look. He is entering inside the airport when his cell rings. He checks the number of the caller.

Man: aaj to mein mara..

He receives the call.

Man: hello.. Mumma.. Are me to kabse yaha khada hu.. Almost an hour you know.. Lagta hai flight hi delay hogayi..(jhut bol rha hai'lolz)

Man: nahi mamma jhut kyu bolunga.. (bites his tounge lightly)

Man: ha baba dhund raha hu.. Par Naazneen kahi dikh nahi rahi.. Dekhta hu..

Man: ya you dont worry.. Bye.. (and he disconnects)

Just then he feels someone touch him near his knees. He turns around and notices a little baby sitting in a carriage pulling his pants. He smiles at the baby and bends down on his knees....and gently touches the baby's cheeks. The baby too starts to touch his face in return.........his little little fingers move around the young man's face .........and stop at his sunglasses.......And the baby gently pulls them off his face.

And we get to see......... The handsome and adorable............. Rajeev khandelwal......... Playing: Armaan.. Armaan Syed..

He cutely smiles and gives the baby a little kiss on his cheeks.

The baby too smiles back........ and.......... our dear Armaan gets so engrossed in playing with the child that he forgets all about the work he had gone there for!

here ends the 4th part..

would be waiting eagerly for your comments,

Sana

Naazneen gets her cell out to call... But... : O god! Battery low..

Naazneen: ab me yaha last time kab ayi thi.. Years back... Lets do one thing.. Tu yahi wait kar i will find some p.c.o. nearby..

Naazneen leaves from there to call her mom leaving Muskaan all alone there....

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

Two middle aged women are present in a huge living room in a house. One of them is quite tensed, looking at the door every now and then.

The other one tries to relax her: fikar mat karo Farhat.. Ajaenge...

Farhat: kaise fikar na karu Saba.. Pehli baar dono aise arahe hai... Aur sabhi ko abhi hi busy hona tha... Wo to acha hua maine Armaan ko waqt par bhej diya... Warna pata nahi..

The first woman here is Farhat.. Farhat Malik... Naazneen's mom.. She is obviously waiting for Naazneen and Muskaan... And the second one is Saba... Armaan's mom...

Saba: abhi waqt hi kitna hua hai Farhat.. Zyada der nahi hui.. Waise Zaheer kab tak wapas ayega?

Farhat: pata nahi uska bhi... Har waqt sirf kaam... Delhi gaya hai kisi deal ke liye.. Ek do din mein ajana chahiye..

Farhat: aur ek ye ghar ka phone hai.. Subah se itni problem de raha hai.. Tumhari Armaan se baat to hui na...

Saba: ha Farhat... Pohoch gaya hai wo... Bas teeno ate hi honge...

These two families are neighbors... And very close to each other... Just like one complete family... And Farhat had sent Armaan to receive the two girls.

Armaan was looking around for Naazneen... He could have been with her long back... when he was playing with the baby he saw some passengers coming out of the airport... And realized he should leave to receive Naazneen... But just then he noticed the baby's mother had a lot of luggage with her so he decided to help her... Usi me bechara late hogya tha...

And here he was... Breathing heavingly... As he had come running.. Is tension me ke kahi zyada late to nahi hogya... He was looking all around for Naazneen....

He notices a girl nearby and goes to her... : excuse me..

The girl turns... And its Muskaan.. : yes?

Armaan: wo london wali flight agayi?

Muskaan: wo to kabki agyi..

Armaan: o God!

He gets out his cell and hurriedly dials the number... Of Naazneens house... But the number was engaged...

So he dials the office number... : hello.. Malik industries.....( Muskaan hears that and quickly turns to him) ....Transfer to Rahim uncle plz...... Armaan here..... What? Meeting me hai?.... O hell... ( he disconnects)

Muskaan: aap.. Mr Rahim Malik ko jante hai?

Armaan: ....jee... ha...( he was not really looking at her... His eyes are moving around the place for Naazneen)

Muskaan: aap unka ghar bhi jante honge..?

Armaan : ha janta hu.. (he stops and looks at her) Par aap kyu...

Muskaan: dekhiye... i have to get there quickly... Plz le chaliye... Abhi hi...

Armaan: abhi? (he thinks of Naanzeen) ... I am sorry... Actually... (she cuts him again)

Muskaan: plz plz plz...

She is pleading infront of him... While Armaan is all confused...

She looks at him and thinks... : ye aise nahi manne wala...

She looks out at the sky and gets quite tensed, it was getting dark.

Muskaan(with fake attitude): dekhiye agar aapne meri help nahi ki to Mr.Rahim bohot ghussa ho jaenge... Aap jante nahi mein kaun hu...

Armaan narrows his eyes... : acha... Kaun hai aap??

Muskaan: mein... Woh... Mein unki fiancee hu...

Armaan: JEE?

Muskaan bites her tongue... : hmmm... I mean... Unke bete ki fiancee hu...

Armaan: what?!

Muskaan: what what... Aap mujhe drop karte hai ya nahi... ( peeche hi pad gayi!)

Armaan thinks for a while... Then...

Armaan: aap unke bete ki fiancee hai?

Muskaan: ...Ha...

Armaan: to.... Kya unke bete ko ye pata hai?

Muskaan: what!

Armaan: nhi actually.... Usne kabhi bataya nahi... To...

Muskaan: are... Wo apni sari personal baaten aapko kyu bataenge.. Aap mujhe drop karte hai ya nahi...

Armaan was about to say something when Naazneen comes there.

Naazneen: Muski koi phone receive nahi kar raha.. We are in big trouble...

Muskaan: relax Naaz.. Ye hume ghar drop kar denge..

She turns to find Armaan standing there.... And gets totally surprised.... So does Armaan...... But before they could say anything....

Muskaan: ye meri sister hai.. Aap plz hum dono ko drop karde.. Jaldi...

Naazneen: Muski ye... (muskaan suddenly keeps a hand on her mouth to stop her.... And whispers to her)

Naazneen: par sun to...( cuts her again)

Armaan now kind -of understands the whole thing... Uske late hone ki wajaise the girls were finding some alternative to get home.. Thats why she lied... And obviously doesnt knows who he is... But Naazneen obviously recognised him...

Armaan: ya sure i will drop you... Now he also decides to pull her leg... Gives a gesture to Naazneen to stay quiet.

Armaan: chaliye... the car is waiting outside...

Muskaan happily goes.

And Naazneen slowly follows... : ya Allah.. Ye ladki... Pata nahi kya khichdi pakai hai....

comments eagerly awaited...

Sana.
