Chapter 4 ' Part A
Deepak is giving gunjan a sheepish grin n Gunjan is returning d same back without any reservations
Deepak, noticing a strange expression on d stranger standing beside Gunjan, he's is forced to acknowledge. Uski aankhon me saare emotions naach rahe the, gussa jiski bhavna samaj nahi aa rahi thi, ajeeb kisam ka arrogance, haughty attitude n all towards me n I wonder why thinks Deepak but aloud he asks
Deepak: "hey ms gunjan , yeh kaun janab hai , introduce nahi karaogi ya humhe dokha deke naya boy friend bana liya
Gunjan blushes while samrat's anger at his words trebles, he is really turning d ugly color of jealous green
Samrat "haan chashmish introduce nahi karaongi" in a stiff possessiveness dribbing voice
Gunjan recovering " Samrat yeh deepak hai, yahan St. Peters me BCA padtha hai aur mere saath school me Maths padatha hai bachon ko aur mera bahut acha dost hai (this she says with a sweet smile towards DeepaKđ)
Gunjan continues " Deepak yeh Samrat hai, hamara naya Basket ball coach as u can see aur Nupur Di aur Mayank jiju ka best friend aur
Before she cud complete Samrat rushes in angrily "aur tumhara chashmish'.tumhara kuch nahi lagta kyađĄ"
Gunjan shocked at this strange behavior n wondering wats worng with Samrat " mujhe bolne bhi doge samrat" n trying not to show Deepak she is riled by samrat's attitude "Deepak yeh mera bhi bahut acha aur sweet friend hai"
Samrat is smiling that gunjan's description about him is much sweeter than that of Deepak but still he is curious n strange fear is occupying his mind while Gunjan is giving him if luks- cud-burn looks n samrat steals away his eyes
Deepak noticing this small interaction is confused but doesn't press for more info as he will have more time to talk to Gunjan n find out
Deepak : Waise madam mana ki aap humare khayalon me khoyi rahti hai par inta bhi nahi ki apna cell phone humare table pe bhool aaye'.Much as I am impressed magar tumhe aise bahanon ki zaroorat kab se padh gayi mujse milne ke liye" with a sweet chraming smile aimed to disarm d opponent but it was also raising d temperature of another person beyond 100 degreesđ
Samrat : (trying to cough n in d same instant see how chashmish is reacting
Gunjan: "Deepak thanks magar tumne kyun takleef ki'.bekaar me dhoop me inti dur aaye aur dekho dhup ke asar se kaise behki bheki baaten kar rahe ho" (with a sheepish grin of her own)
Samrat hides a secret smile that she is indirectly calling Deepak mad but the smile she is passing Deepak is creating innumerable world wars bet his mind n heart
Samrat : (a little stern n finally remembering he's d coach) " Deepak it was nice meeting u, much as I would like to continue talking to u but I have a team to coach, of whose captain is chahsmish 'I mean Gunjan''so if u will excuse us'.. v have to leave for d court"
Gunjan is shocked by Samrat's rude behavior, she n her sis's gang may be used to it but that gives him no leeway to use that tone to a sweet guy like Deepak "samrat yeh kya tareekha hua'.."
Deepak cutting short Gunjan " Its ok Gunjan'..he's right . tumhe abhi jaana chahiye'.hum waise bhi shaam ko toh milnewale hai na
Samrat (before he could think) "sorry who shaam ko mujhe Morena dikhane le jaa rahi hai"đ
Deepak cud not help hiding his smile at dis strange person's even more strange territorial behavior towards gunjan n thinks while Gunjan is not defying what he's saying, her looks alone r enuf for me to make myself scarce
Deepak: Ok gunjan I will call u tonight '.on ur cell phone (with a sweet smile n thinks now samrat answer that one if u can n he can see samrat's control is ebbing away at his fuming expression)
Gunjan: "sure I will wait for ur call"
Samrat : groaning loudlyđ˛ without caring wat ne of them construes it to be "ab tumhari baaten khatam ho haye toh chalen kya captain'.team tumhare liye pure din wait nahi kar sakta"
Gunjan waving to Deepak n following samrat who had started walking ahead of her n wonders whats wrong with this guy abhi toh theekh tha, bhagwan jaanta iske dimaage me rakhi sawant ka bhoot kab gus jaata hai aur nautanki shuru kar deta haiđ
Samrat: Is still fuming, he can't understand what's wrong with him, y he is reacting so stupidly in front of a stranger n wats he trying to achieve by angering chashmish when they have just started becoming friends but he knows he nither has the time now or d luxury to dwell into those thoughts but he will sort it out before d end of d day'.escply if he valued his life which clearly in a unsafe zone looking at d murderous glance gunjan was passing himđ'.he cudnt help but like riling herđ
Samrat : Team aaj hum offensive strategies ke kuch finer points practice karenge. Aaj hum Cut aur screen moves ko practice karenge .as u may know cut move is a quick move by a player without the ball to get in a good position to shoot.n a screen happens when a player blocks an opponent so her teammate can cut by herđĽą
These two moves are usually combined to create what is called the pick and roll. Jab screen apna move chalegi, thab cutter be apna move chalegi . The ball is passed and basket is shot. Point guard yeh direction degi joki aapke team me aapki captain Ms Gunjan hai. The main objective of the offense is to use moves that are quick and allow for passing and good basket position. (that was amateurish basket ballđ˛ i know đ)
Samrat : "gunjan kya aap aage aa sakti hai, girls take up ur position please. Gunjan you have to imagine you are the opponent, Rita you will do d cut move ready to score while I will do a screen move to block Gunjan, understood everybody. Neelima u will cover for rita as an opponent"
Gunjan all set for d action and was standing some few metres away from Samrat trying to doge when he was blocking her move to snatch d ball from rita,
Samrat " Chashmish agar tum itne dur se dodge karne ki koshish karogi toh mujhe tume screen karne ki zaroorat hi nahi padegi"đ
Gunjan was not prepared to play d game in such close proximity with Samrat especially when she was so angry that she can't think straight n on top samrat's proximity was doing funny things to her traitorous body
Samrat ignoring her reluctance steps in closer n whispers in her ear "ab mujse bachne ki koshish karo chashmish"
A electric charge passes thru gunjan when samrat's sweeter than nectar voice n cooler than breeze breathe whispers like a soft feather in her ears, she cud feel d goose bumps on her arms 'n his statement with double innuendo was not helping'as if she cud even try
Gunjan is stuck to d place like an immovable doll n rita scores a basket overcoming neelima
Samrat is confused "Ms Gunjan kahan kho gayi, game pe dhyaan hi nahi hai, mujhe tumne dodge karne ki koshish bhi nahi ki " (he thinks probably she's still thinking about Deepka and gets territorial again "Ms Gunjan , I wud appreciate agar aap apne bf ke khayal chodke abhi game pe concentrate kare" in a sarcastic tone
Gunjan is clueless what samrat is talking about
Gunjan is still thinking kahin use mere in ajeeb feelings ke bare me toh kuch pata nahi laga gaya'.khain who yeh to nahi soch raha ki mai uske bare me soch rahi hun'..god lagta hai dhoop ka asar Deepak pe kam aur muj pe zyaada ho raha,đ''yeh mai kya baaten leke bait gayi'.sab us idiot samrat ki galti haiđ
Next one instance she again misses dodging samrat when sammmy calls it a day n asks all girls to leave and assemble around 1.30 tomorrow
Samrat stops When gunjan is about to leave "chahsmish'.i mean gunjan tum ruko"
Gunjan still fuming at her lack of concentration n samy's earlier words "Kyun aur kuch bolna baaki reh gaya"
Samrat in an equally sarcastic tone "nahi, unlike u am not here to dream, I am here to do a job, n i have to do it extra hard seeing that the star player of d team has concentration power like u can even guess"
Samrat cudnt take it any more. He's irritated both with gunjan for being lost in Deepak's thot n with himself for being bothered with that n is unable to find a way to get out of this mess in which he's getting sucked in without his volition.
Gunjan terribly hurt by samrat's words tries to hide d trembling which wud eventually lead to tears if she doesn't control herself'..sam was d first guy who had ever spoken harshly to her n so many times'.she thinks "I was a fool to believe in his words n start seeing him in a diff light, but she was not going to to fall for him or his sweet words again (as if there was ever a choice đ )
Samrat "I want to practice with you for next 15 min, so pls apne personal thots ko bye bye bolke thoda game per concentrate karo
In the next min gunji decided to channelise her energy into d game.
The first time Gunjan easily breezez past sam n scores a basket even before samrat could blink en eyeđ
While sammy stands with his mouth open startled at her agility n swiftness n trying to dampen the beam of pride at chashmish having tackled him so effortlesly "the best baskte ball player of Bombay" . On realizing this he imme regrets his earlier outburst'.he knew he was unreasonably jealous of a guy whom he hardly knew and n girl who was just his good friend'.wait a min did I say jealous'.arrggggghhhđĄ'.yehmujhe kya ho rah hai'.
N all of a sudden a thot strikes Samrat'.haan I am possessive of chahsmish'.after all nayi nayi dosti hui hai'.n moreover itne freely maine kisi ladki se dosti bhi tho nahi ki'..now he feels better having got rid of concern over "jealous" word
Gunjan is dribbling the ball n samrat wants to apologise but doesn't know how to start'.he seems to be only doing that around chahsmish'..wat mush she be thinking of him'n thinks in his mind"dude wait a min'.when it ever matter to u wat anybody thot of u'espcllly a girl" scared samrat pushes d thot away unwilling to think about it any more
Samrat "chashmishhhhhh (in a cute puppy tone trying to undo her anger)'.gusssa ho kyaaa mujsseee with a cute lil sulk"
Gunjan "nahi, bahut khush hun'especially sab ke saamne apne so called BF ke naam pe daant khake , am feeling on top of d world aur waise tum mujhe yeh chahsmish bulana nad karo 'mujhe acha nahi lagtađĄ (her heart calls her a liar)đ'mera naam gunjan hai, gunjan"
Samrat "par chahsmish mujhe toh acha lagta hai'ekdum cute n sweetđł'just like u so adorable" n when gunjan's attention gets diverted at his heartwarming words, at that instance smarat blocks her n before she cud anticipate his move, snatches d ball from her n while doing so his fingers scrape over her bare arm, imme both let go of d ball as if struck by an electric shock'..
this time gunjan recovers quickly coz of her newfound resolve n snatches d ball n moves towards d basket n just in d moment samrat also recovers n he tries to stop the basket by jumping alongside gunjan n just as gunjan reaches the basket, both of them collide with each other n more out of shock than the thrill, gunjan unsteadily back off n slips, n samrat imme anticipating her fall moves forward to hold her hand n save d fall but she was already reaching d surface n in the process pulls off samrat with her in d attempt to save herself from falling
Gunjan lands with a thud on d floor (unlike in movies it was no joyful fall, her back is a hurting little n her elbow n arms r burning having scratched the rough surface on top of it sam's body on top is heavy n doing funny little things to her n she's irritated that even in pain she can only feel his proximity n is disgusted with herself n imme tears rush in which have been waiting to gatecrash for the last 30 min or so

Chapter 4 âPart B
Dedicated to some more lovely readers
cuteangelgirl95 â thanks dear for ur ever encouraging comments
Shama.nat â thanks a lot shama for always leaving a note

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Samrat imme levers himself off her body but not before having experienced a pleasant pleasure, something tickling his senses, being in her arms, he thinks "I know it sounds clich but the way gunjan had pulled me,it ended with me in her arms as if it was like finally coming homeâŚ.woaaa wats wrong where are these mushy dialogues cropping up at most inappropriate times",
but imme Samrat sees gunjan's pain n tears ,all at d same time n d pleasure of d previous moment turns to a pain like knife being slashed thru him seeing gunjan's tearsâŚ.he is shocked y its hurting him so muchâŚ.no doubt his friend is hurt but it can't wound me like thisâŚfunny benji's wounds never had this reaction in me though I felt hurt but not as wounded as I feel nowâŚ.god I guess it must be power of d universally acclaimed most powerful weapon, a woman's tears causing this reaction (men can be so dense at times đ)
Samrat imme levers himself but doesn't move away, he supports himself on his hands while being in d same position
Samrat "chashmish, kya hua âŚ..are u hurt"
Gunjan missing the contact of his warmth n irritated at his stupid question replies with tears "nahi nahiâŚ.mai toh perfectllly fit fit hoon..aaouuchâŚ.woh toh mai mai bore hoti hun ...toh khud neeche gir girrr jaati auâŚ..aur aur phir thodi der ... derr mee ronnee lagti hun" she manages in between sobs đ
Samrat tried to hide his grin at her retort but not before Gunajn saw it
Gunjan furious at his grin starts beating his chest forgetting her pain for a minute n bursts out in tears "samrattttt tum kitne kitne gan gandhe hoâŚ.mere ko yahaan cho chot lagi hai aur tumm tum hans rahe ho"đ
Another knife slashing pain, samrat blanks his mind n heart as he has to handle chashmish now n stops her beating hands with one of hisâŚ."chashmish am sorry, mai tum pe nahi hans raha tha, I swear (thinks when had he ever sworn in his life, god this woman was tuning him into some1 elseđ)âŚ..woh bas tum bahut cute lag rahi thi gusse me, is liye I was smilingâŚ..sorry chahsmishhhhh (same pupply tone)âŚ.pls mafff kar do na
Gunjan lost it at the word cute n that puppy tone. How it is that this guy always disarms me so easily, not five minutes back all I wanted to do was hit him n now I just want to lLLL...wat am I thinking wats worng with me, the confusion triggers more tears
Samrat thinks she's still angry with him n pleads with his eyes n in a n earnest tone "pls pls dekho rona mat chahsmishâŚam sorry, pls mujhe bataoâŚ.r u hurtâŚpls dekho na meri tarf when she had closed her at the LL letter cropping in her mindâŚ
Now Gunjan opens her eyes n sight beheld her for a minuteâŚsamrat slowly inches forward asking her sorry all d while, n very gently brushes her cheeks with his lips where tears were still dyring n kisses her forehead as if in reverence, assurance that everything will be alright, I will make ur pain go away n as if magically it was d healing touch her body was craving forâŚ.d pain vanishes in thin air, replaced by a soothing, breezy feeling in her, as if d snow around her heart was melting n creating this ethereally chilly n yet comforting effect
Samrat gets up breaking d magical moment for gunjan n himself, which he didn't even want to explain, but that did explain, him abruptly moving away as if leaving a chill in her bodyâŚ.Gunjan recovers looking at samrat looking at her standing above while she's lying awkwardly n uncomfortably under his intense gazeâŚshe tries to get up but her back n elbow r still tender n she groans in pain
Samrat stops her n before she cud react or understand, he lifts her tenderly in his arms n proceeds out of court
Gunjan shocked at his act n coming into close contact with him so soon again when her heart's still recovering from d previous contact asks in a voice laced with weakness "samrraatâŚ.yeh kya kar rahe ho"
Samrat "kya chahsmish dikh nahi raha tumhe kidnap karke le ja rah hun, todha zor se chailloa, "nahi bachao mujheâŚ.chod do mujheâŚ.koi hai"
Gunjan smiling at his reply hits him playfully on his chestâŚ"samrat tum bhi naâŚ.ek number nautanki ho"
Samrat as if hurt "nautanki aur maiâŚ.aur who bhi morena ki sabse badi nautanki ki sister mujhe bol rahi haiâŚgod kya zamana aa gayaâŚ.waise chahsmish tum apni di se kuch seekhoâŚwoh yahan hoti toh pure morena ko cheek ke ikatta kar leti âŚ.aur tum hans kyun rahi ho....âŚmai tumhara kidnap kar raha hunâŚ.koi comedy circus show dikhane nahi le ja rahunâŚ
Samrat continues "todha tho dramatic hoke mauke ki nazakat me aao chahsmishâŚaakhir mujhe b kidnapper banne ka chance baar baar nahi milta haiâŚlet me try those villainous laughâŚ.haa hahh hhaaâŚin a growling earthy heavy accented voice"tumhe mujhse ab koi nahi bacha sakta chashmishâŚ.madad ke liye chillana bekar hai haiâŚeeehahaha" .
huh Samrat gives up when she starts laughing wholeheartedly forgetting her pain n her laughter sounds musical to his ears as if striking a chord of harmony in his heart n the feeling transforms his face to break into a beautiful sunny smile
In d dressing room, samrat tenders to her wounds in the hand so touchingly as if she is a delicate piece of glass which comes with a tag of "handle with care" he blows on her hand softly while applying antiseptic, the breathe whooshes on her skin n brings tears of happiness to her eyes at the same instant
Samrat mistaking her tears to be of pain "chahsmishhh kya huaâŚmaine haath daba diya kya âŚsorry chahsmishâŚam really sorry chahsmish"
Gunjan looks into his pain filled face n wonders can she really control her tears now but she can't trouble him more n bravely paints a smiling face not showing him how he has undone her with his tenderness"nahi samrat âŚmai theekh hun"
Samrat "thank god for that (sighing happily at d relief his heart felt)"âŚhe finishes cleaning her wounds on her hand n gets her a fruit juice from canteen while she applies antispectic to her back with the help of a gril n calls sammy benji to bring d car explaining briefly abt the situation (yes sammy has started being more interactive with his friends whereas earlier he wud have just asked benji to come over, now he feels compelled to give them their dueâŚ.all thanks to this lady's sunshine shining over himâŚ.
Samrat's mind says "stop it samratâŚmauka milta nahi hai tu ukse bare me sochne lagta hai" his heart replied "dude tune uske baare me sochna bandh kab kiya tha phir shuru karne ke liye"âŚhe shakes his head vigourously to get rid of d two devils fighting inside him
After 3 days, having completely recovered, Gunjan's face is glowing but she is not able to realize what is it that's keeping a smile pasted on her face for no reason n everything looks and feels good to her, but deep down she knows its all thanks to samrat's undivided attention on her for d past two days, he had hardly left her side n when he's with her time just seems to be flying away.. N today it was d function of annual day in her school and she was getting ready for the function
Samrat, dia , benji were coming along with her while dodo, nupur n mayank were heaed for some last minute shopping for d mayur's sangeet and wedding
Gunjan was wearing a light pink salwar with short puff sleeves, in satin lined with beautiful beads and stones at the edges, making it shine like pearls in a lotus flower n she had to let go of her spects n wear contact lenses strictly on d order of her students' request(she thinks smilingly)âŚ
the moment Gunjan comes down samrat who is wearing a light pink t-shirt and black jeans is spell bound and awestruck by her beauty, she has left her hairs lose n a part of her flip is falling off nicely on one side which she's nervously combing with her fingers at d sight of samrat n his intense look
Benji "abhey mooh to band kar" n nudges himđ
Samrat recovering from his kiddish act thinks she looks so divinely just like a pari n on the outset covers it up saying " u r looking beautiful chahsmish" n a blush covers him up as he's finding it tough to pay a genuine complement easily n gunjan reciprocates d reaction n d complement"
Dia interrupting them "my my some people here are all matching matchingâŚ.guys hame bhi bata dete toh hum bhi matching clothes pehen leteâŚ.kyun benji"đł
Benji "absolutely sweetheart, but hum to bina matching clothes ke bhi ekdum matching hai haina n winks in her direction"đ
Dia admonishing "benjiâŚsabke samne shuru mat ho jao" but is absolutely loving the attention she's gettingđł
Samrat "guys tum logon ka romance khatam ho gaya toh ab chalen kya"
They all reach the school n before long the function startsâŚ..All the kids who r in gunjan's clsas surround her when they see her n start forcing her to give a dance performance for themâŚ.she tries to refuse a lot but they never listen a word that's wats kids r all about đ
She goes on stage n starts dancing to the song
Silsila yeh chaahat ka na maine bujhne diya, ho, hm Silsila yeh chaahat ka na maine bujhne diya Piya, yeh diya na bujha hai, na bujhega Meri chaahat ka diya Mere piya ab aaja re mere piya Ho, mere piya ab aaja re mere piya Is diye sang jal raha mera rom rom rom aur jiya Ab aaja re mere piya Ho, mere piya ab aaja re mere piya
Samrat sitting in the front is gaping with his mouth wide open n his hands r sliding time n again from d sofa handle n he's finding it diffuclt to remove or even blink his eyes at d moves of gunjan, so sleek, so elegant, so rhythmic so delicate, as if d soul in his heart was dancing to d call of the songâŚ..he just cudnt come out of this trance even at d insistence of his mind, its as if he's fallen into a deep abyss, which is nothing but her beautiful eyes' emotions n d expression of anxiety awaiting her lover as per d lyricsâŚ
Gunjan was doing it to a T n before long d whole auditorium in roaring in applause n samrat wakes up froim his trance n cant still bring himself to move his hands to acknowledge the magic she created on stage.
Gunjan comes down off the stage shyly to all d applause that's slowly dieing, giving way to d next performance and notices samrat is having a strange happiness filled grin on his face n is looking directly at her as she's making way towards him to resume her seat n is amused at the expression n embarrassed at the same time at seeing him still standing n clapping when all others have resumed their seat n r now staring at samrat.
Dia tries to pull him but he doesn't seem to be even aware of what he's doing
Gunjan coming next to him admonishes him in a mild voice "samrat âŚkya kar rahe hoâŚ.mera dance khatam ho chukkaâŚsab tumhe dekh rahe hai"
Samrat rudely jolted out of his trance by gunjan's voice realizes his stupidity n swiftly starts beating his hand n thighâŚ."woh kya haina chahsmishâŚ.yahaan machar bahut haiâŚwohi maar raha tha" n sheepishly resumes his seat n gunjan's pleasant happiness at samrat's open appreciation has taken her on clud nine n her heart much to her mind's agony is refusing to step down from there
After two performances, the kids of her class address before starting the performance "this dance is dedicated by all class three students to d bestest teacher in d whole wolrd âŚ.our lovely cuddly gunjan mamâŚ.mam pls aap stage pe aao naâŚ.pslâŚyes mam pls plsâŚall start shouting much to gunjan's shy nature but sportingly she goes on stage
N the kids start dancing to d beat in d song, while gunjan standing in d corner of the stadium was clapping her hands encouragiong themđ
While the song starts with lyrics, two kids go down the stage n pull samrat, benji,dia on stage n make them dance and all three start dancing sportingly learning n mimicking d steps of d kids while gunjan is smiling from the corner.
Benji makes d most of moment n dances happily to his heart's desire with his lady love dia

The song starts
Here Now Here Now, Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air Now Here Now Here Now Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air
Uski Aankhon Mein Baatein, Baaton Mein Jadoo ( Say Here Now Here Now )-2 Uski Aankhon Mein Baatein, Baaton Mein Jadoo Jadoo Mein Kho Gaye Hum Hogaye Beqabu
Samrat goes n pulls gunjan towards himself n sings these lines to her
I Looked At You, You Looked At Me,Aur Hogayi Mushkil And You Became My Destiny Tuhi Meri Manzil
All four along with the kids try to do d famous signature steps of d song
Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil Legaye Dil Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil )-2
Here Now Here Now, Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air Now
Here Now Here Now Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air
As all are dancing, Samrat's heart goes in a trance again looking at Gunjan smiling n dancing without ne perefection of few minutes back, just for d fun of the kids n wholeheartedly smiling , while benji dia join her'.samrat stops n looks lost in her thots n d song doesnt helps his mind
Yeh Dil To pehle Aisa Nahin Tha Kisne Behkaya Aisa Sapna Dikhaya Kyun
Yeh Aankhein Meri Dekhe Ussi KoSoche Bina Hi Usse Apna Banaya Kyun
Jeena To Marne Se Ab Hai Kahi Mushkil Khudko Jo Khoya To Woh Hogaya Haasil
At this line the kids jolt him back to awareness n he luks upto gunjan questioning him silently n he smiles off his panic at getting lost in her world n all four start dancing
( Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil Legaye DilDus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil )-2
Right after the performance got over everyone was joyous, kids bring that effect truly with their innocence and unconditional acceptance of adultsđ. All were stepping off the satge after a puff panting performance, just then someone announces in the mike
"ahh not so fast Ms Gunjan"
Deepak "friends aap ne Ms gunjan ke dance ki beauty toh dekh li magar unka song nahi suna toh yeh shaam adhuri rah jaayegi'.ab tak toh aap samajh gaye honge Ms Gunjna sabhi bachon ki chahiti teacher hai n no wonder unhe best teacher ka award mila hai'..to isi kushi me mai unse request karunga ki award accept karke hamare liye do line sunaye
Gunjan scolds him mildly when Deepkak comes forward and pulling her hand drags her back to center stage and all the while benji was worried someone was going to burn the stage with the fumes coming out of his ears n eyes spitting flames at poor Deepak but personally he was liking this reaction from Samrat đas it was making him totally break his shell n move forward
Scowling Samrat comes and sits in his place. he thinks "God the evening was moving so beautifully, is Deepak ke bache ko aake spoil karma tha kya abhi"
After accepting the award from the princi graciously n thanking all the parents, friends n her dear students she starts singing
Gunjan "Deepak since u have insisted so much I sing, this one is ur favorite and deicated to u"
Gunjan is looking at Deepak but stealing glances at samrat as if meaning the words only for him from her heart n samrat is obliviously being busy burning Deepak with his eyes. (God wat cross connection đ)
Dil Kho Gaya, Ho Gaya Kisi Ka..,Ab Raasta Mil Gaya, Khushi Ka..Aankhon Mein Hai Khwab Sa, Kisi Ka.. Ab Raasta Mil Gaya, Khushi Ka..Rishta Naya Rabba, Dil Chu Raha Hai, Kheeche Mujhe Koi Dore, Teri Ore..
Teri Ore, Teri Ore, Teri Ore, Hai Rabba..Teri Ore, Teri Ore, Teri Ore
Teri Ore, Teri Ore, Teri Ore, Hai Rabba..Teri Ore, Teri Ore, Teri Ore
Finally much to samrat's relief she steps down and the function winds up in half an hour. Just as they were stepping off the auditorium, unknown to them , a short circuit breaks and fire breaks out spreading wildly through the curtains adorning the wall. Panic ensures within no time and all start running hayway with their kids
Samrat, Gunjan, Benji and Dia start helping in vacating the hall without a second thot, a few people who were bruised were being rushed to hospital, fire engines were called, and just when all four were trying to exit, a curtain which was hanging from d top unnoticed by the four comes rolling like a ball of flame. Benji and gunjan were still escorting some staff safely away just as fire brigades were taking over from them. The ball of flame was right above samrat and dia right behind him notices that and before anyone cud react, she pushes samrat out of the way shouting "sammmy move away"
And within minutes Dia's nylon dress is engulfed in the curtain n her neck is burning. It was like a nightmare for all the other three but their love for dia supersedes their shock n all rush to help her without a concern just like she did a few minutes back, the fire brigade people n all three imme douse out d fire before it had done its own damage and they rush an unconscious dia whose final call before falling uncocious was "Beennnj"
Benji is in tears , he's unable to push the guilt of not having been there for dia, not having taken care of her, blaming himself n cursing his fate asking why cudnt they swap places
Samrat is totally numb, he's not showing ne reaction at all'.Benji for once cudnt be there for his friend when dia needed him d most. He signals to gunjan to take care of Samrat whose eyes were reflecting the tears that were not stopping at this evening which had started out so beautifully and from nowhere had turned to a horrifying nightmare. She tries to get some reaction of samrat.
But samrat ways out of his depth Magar who puri tarah se toot chukka tha'.Uski wajah se dia ki aaj yeh haalat thi, usko bahcane ke liye dia ne apni jaan jokhim me daal di'.he thinks god yeh sab mere saath hi kyun hota hai'.he was keeping d pain at bay coz he wanted opnly numbness now
Mayank, dodo n nupur reach hospital and Nupur consoles a broken gunjan sobbing herself while a shocked dodo and mayank console samrat and benji. They were all worried for Dia as if their heart beat wud stop any minute and resume only when they hear a gud news'that's d power of their friendship, only one was wounded but 6 were actually burning in d wound waiting for water in d form of miracle to douse the flames engulfing their hearts
Just then doctor comes out with the gud news that everything was alright, since she was wearing a nylon dress severe damage was averted before it cud reach her by those around her but they had to do a surgery to repair d portion of skin near her neck that got a little burnt but she' ll carry d marks for some more time and oh they were sorry that in accident she had lost quite a lot of her hair and they had to cut some during her operation. Infact her hairs also acted as a shield to prevent flames from reaching her face
Benji "doc kya hum use dekh sakte hain"
Doc "10 minute baad abhi nurse unki dressing kar rahi hai"
Those were d longest 10min of their life. Much as the doctor reassured they were still not sure everything was alright
When they enter, all r shocked to see dia's hairs that looked like shortest boy cut in d world if possible n her neck bandaged. What was paining them more was dia loved her hairs which came till her shoulders and she used to keep telling them that it was d best aspect of hers. Hers was really thick silky hairs and which girl does not cherish them.
Dia is looking a little shaken but otherwise she seemed the usual self always having a ready smile for others though now it was laced with the fear of the past two hours or so
Benji rushed in and almost leaps at Dia, hugging her as if he wud never let her go n kissing her cheeks and eyes and forehead
Benji's tears shamelessly crowd his face within no minutes tears of relief and fear of what cud have happened " sweetheart yeh yeh ttttumne kya kiya'.pata hai pat hai meri jaan nikal gayi," takes a deep sigh "pls promise me pormissee ki aage se tume aisa kuch nahi karogi. Tumne ek baar socha mera kya hoga, ek baar socha mere dil pe in 2 ganton me kya beeti hogi, ek baar socha agar tumhe kuch ho jaata. His sobs were uncontrollable and he's unable to talk further
Dia who's calm composure was in check all along finally gave way to the trauma of the last few hours'.She just holds benji tightly and cries for what cud have happened, how she might have got separated from benji without getting a chance to say what he meant to her one last time, without a chance to live all her dreams with golden hearted guy, without ne chance to build a future on the basement of their dreams and hopes, what she's not able to convey in words her sobs and tears n her trembling body do that for her.
Benji hugs her back tightly as if conveying all his positives, strength, spirit to her through that hug. Taking a deep sigh and controlling emotions as Dia needs his strength now "shh'its ok sweetheart, i am here now'.its ok'.u r fine'.tumne kuch nahi hoga'.its ok, everything will be alright", while he caresses her back in soothing manner to controls the sobs still racking her and silently saying million thanks to god for bestowing this love back in his life as before
After some 30 minutes dia controls herself and meekly answers to her well being questions by protective brother Dodo who for once seems to shaken beyond belief and no words and consolation are giving him the idea all is well
Finally Dia gives him n all there a love filled hug which breaks Dodo's composure "deeds'.pls don't ever scare me like this'.i will never ever trouble u again in my life'.i promise mai kabhi tumse nahi ladunga'.mai tumhari saari baat manauga'..but pls dodnt ever do this to me" n saying so hugs her back tightly. Dodo's words somehow lightened the atmosphere a lil bit
Benji not still able to shed d fear clouting his brain with all "ifs" says" tumne ek baar mere bare me socha toh hota jaan'.how cud u do this"
Dia in a slightly broken voice "agar tum meri jagah hote toh tum ek baar sochte '.mere bare me'.tum 'u know dear'.answer me truthfully '.tum sammy ko bachane ke liye ek baar sochte"
Benji realizes that there can never be answers to certain questions much as u may want and feeling proud abt his love's ability to look beyond herself for sum1 and when that sum1 happens to be samrat nobody had any doubts that positions reversed they wudnt do this
Benji "no sweetheart'.am a fool to even ask this'.u r totally right , I totally understand"
Soembody shouts from the back "but I don't understand"
Nupur, Mayank, Benji Dodo and dia all look towards the door where samrat is standing with tears running rampant on the glum numb face of last few hours
Samrat " I don't understand," rushing in an angry stride "mujhe samajh nahi aaya candy'.what made u do such a stupid thing, tumne apna hosh toh nahi kho diya, tum ne aisa soch bhi kaise liya ki tum aise mere liye sacrifice karogi aur mai dekte rah jaoonga, why candy why" now his emotions r running like a livewire as if having found an ignition point
Samrat "candy tum mere liye apni jaan jokhim me daalne chali gayi, mere khatir, aise dost ke khatir, jisne tumhe na koi wajah di hai na koi friendship ke sweet words kabhi bole hai, bola hai toh , sirf harsh words, taunting about ur beauty, taunting about u caring for ur beauty more than ur brains aur us dost ke liye tume ne aaj apne sabse keemti cheez, apni khoobsoorati sacrifice karne chali thi, why candy" by now he shakes her literally forgetting that she's still fragile n weak as if shaking her wud bring some sense in her for her stupidity. Benji keeps a consoling hand on his arm to calm him
Samrat "nahi benji 'aaj mai kisi ki baat nahi sununga'..tum log mere saath aisa nahi kar sakte. Waise hi meri zindagi me guilt kam tha kya kit um log use aur bada rahe ho
Samrat "no candy u have to answer 'y u took such a stupid risk'.u have to promise me u wud never ever repeat this again?(shaking her still harly)'.u cannot do this '.u cant put me in an tortured emotional embroiling moment ever again'u cant do this'.u don't know what I went thru in last two hours (by now sobs n guilt of past r all racking n crowding n breaking his vulnerability)'.mujhe aur mat thodo candy (crying in an anguish)'.am already broken'.pls promise'.pls don't ever repeat this'.pls why did u"'saying so he palces his head on bed next to where dia is lying and starts crying unashamedly for the first time in his life in full senses
Benji knew this was the turmoil, storm waiting to break open, thanks to gunjan the change they had all been waiting , the reaction that they had all tried to get out for ages, the expression of love, vulnerablilty and insecurity so freely given for all to see, without any reservation
Dia smiling with a tight controlled feeling , holding onto her tears for the ultimate acknowledgement of friendship from a angel who didn't know his own value, fights back her tears and combs his hair affectionately
Dia "usi reason se sammmy'.jis reason se 2 saal pehle tumne mujhe meri sabse keemti cheez , meri khoobsoorat lautai thi, usi karan se jis wajah mai benji ka pyaar pa saki, usi kaaran se becoz of which u have always been d angel friend in our life
Samrats's sobs stops abruptly and his body tenses anticipating what was to come next for which he was not prepared but he does not raise his head, he controls his body into a taut position
Dia " maine tumhari jaan usi wajah se bachayi jis wajah se do saal pehle tumne us car accident me jab mera poora chera glass pieces lagne ki wajah se distort ho gaya tha, aur jab dad ka buisness poora down tha, aur jis waqt doctors ne bola tah ki sinagpore se specialist plastic surgeon ko laana padega, aur jis waqt tumne 18 saal baad first time mere khatir apne dad se baat ki thi, mere liye unke influence ko use karke us specialist ko India aane ke liye manane ke liye beg kiya tha"
Dia "aur jab us surgery me mera chehra poori tarah theek ho gaya tha, toh who 5 lakh ki fees ko tumne doctors se kahke research froundation se complex case ke liye sponsorship arrange kiya tha us Singapore specialist ne, aisa tumne hi bulwaya tha na unhi doctors se,
Dia continues "yeh khoobsoorati, beauty jo mere paas abhi hai uski wajah hi tum ho toh tumhe bachane ke liye woh kaise kaam nahi aata sammy, aur most of all us accident me for the first time I realized ki mai kitne vain thi, external beauty pe bekaar me marti thi, yahan tak ki benji ka pyaar bhi undekha kar diya tha, usne hospital me jo support mujhe diya tab mujhe realise hua mai kis khushi se bhaag rahi thi, kis golden heart ko ignore kar rahi thi, kis beautiful love ko pehchaan nahi paa rhai thi "she looks at benji and shares a smile of absolute understanding
Dia "jab mujhe uske pyaar ke importance ka resalisation hua, mujhe laga fate was playing spoilsport with me, I know benji would have accepted me in any condition coz he loved my heart not external beauty and us din mujhe kitna guilty aur helpless feel hua ki life me first time true love ko paake ek hi pal me main khone wali thi, coz I wudnt have burdened myself on him in that condition, he deserved better" n signals benji not to interrupt her when he's about to retaliate at that statement
Dia "u brought a new sunshine to my life sammy, un khushiyon ko jo mai kho chuki thi, tum unhe meri life me wapas laaye the, tumhari wajah se mujhe ek nayi lease of life mili, mera true love mila toh phir mai tumhe kaise nahi bacha thi, I owe whatever I have today of me to u then how cud I not but think about helping u in any way I cud. Us din tumne jis friendship ke khatir bina expectations ke meri madad ki, maine bhi usi ke kahtir aaj yeh sab kiya and u know it so don't start questioning me, now get up and give me a hug which I deserve"đ
Samrat is totally undone by her confession and is humbled by her honesty and friendship, he knew for once neither his words nor any explanations wud do any justice but he cud always convey the gratitude of her friendship she had bestowed on him with a hug that conveyed the deepest feeling of his vulnerable yet proud heart for having been bestowed with a friend like her

Chapter 4 ' PART D
Gunjan is watching all this from behind. Her and nupurs tears had never stopped in the last two hours since the nightmare had started but now they were rejoicing in the union that made the nightmare bearable in fact beautiful in its own way with the gang getting a chance to connect freely with their much loved friend
All leave for home in two hours. Doctors had advised Dia to take it easi for a week and come back for a plastic surgery consultation after 2 weeks
Just before leaving the hospital, Gunjan comes out of rest room after washing her face to find Samrat waiting for her. All had gone along with Dia to the reception while Mayank and dodo were settling the bill.
Gunjan looks at samrat who looked as if one more word and he would be a goner forever. Understanding for what he was here n without wasting time she runs to him n gives smarat a tight hug conveying her support, telling him she was with him if he needed her, knew that she can't openly say that aslo, knew that its too soon to speak anything, knew she cud only do this for him at this fragile and emotionally worn out moement
Samrat reciprocates her hug much beyond her expectation and understanding. He hugged her as if he wud never let her go, he wud dissolve all his problems in that one hug , he wud hold onto this lease of life, all thanks to this beautiful lady in his arms who helped him untangle himself in more ways than he cud explain to himself or ne one.
Chashmish was one support Samrat was not ready to let go now, he knew it had to end, all this crazy unexplainable things that were taking root in his mind had to end, everything had to end, after all he doesn't deserve this, all has to end but not just now, but not so soon, there will be time enuf for that but not just now but finally he breaks her hug when he hears Benji's coughing voice giving time to acknowledge his presence.
Samrat looks into her eyes and face as if wanting to memorize it in his brain forever and with last glance of shared understanding with her, they leave the place where the nightmare of the evening had finally ended
After everyone had setlled in, Nupur was sleeping with Dia. Benji and Dodo were staying in Bhushan house just in case they needed any help while Mayank and Sam headed back to the guest house
Gunjan was restless, she's tossing and turning for the last one hour and sleep has been evading her ever since she tried attempting it. She finally gives and gets up from the bed and goes towards the window
Gunjan thinks "yeh mujhe kya ho raha , mai so kyun nahi paa rahi, kyun samrat ka chahera koi adhure sapne ki tarah mera peecha kar raha hai, kyun mere dil me yeh nayi umangen ut rahi ahin
Nahi mai aisa soch nahi sakthi'..mujhe aisa sochne ka koi haq nahi hai samrat mujhe sirf apna dost manta hai'.nahi yeh sab theek nahi hai'.aisa kuch ho nahi sakta mere dil me'.magar phir mera dil kyun itna behcain hain
Kyun mera dil har waqt uski raahen dekta rahta hai'.kyun usko dekte hi mere dil ki dhadkanen tez ho jaati hai'.kyun uske ek jahalak ke liye main har pal tarasthi rahti hun
Nahi yeh sab kya'.gunjan tu paagal ho gayi hai'..yeh kya baten leke bait gayi hai'.tujhe pata bi hai where your thoughts are leading to'.dupahar me basket ball court me b almost tu yahi galti karne jaa rahi thi'.wats wrong with u'.the girl who's supposed to be the most sensible person has taken leave of her senses''
Par mai kya karu, yeh bechaini bhi toh mujhe chain se saans nahi lene de rahi ,'..mai khayalon ke kis daldal me phansi jaa rahi hun , bahar nikalne ka koi aasar hi nazar nahi aa rahi hai'.he bhagwan mai zindagi ke kis makam pe aa pahunchi hun, 'jahaan ek galat faisaa zinndagi ka sabse bada sach lag raha hai'..kis ki baat sunu aur kisi unsuni karun
Mere dil aur dimaag ki is kahsmakash ka kya hul hai'kisse poochon'.kisko batao, kaise is bhanwar se bahar niklun, ya kaise is dil ko samjaon ki yeh nadani mujhe kitni bhari pad sakti hai
Kyun mera dil samrat ke naam ka aadi ho gaya hai, kyun uska chehra mere liye duniya ki sabse khooosarat tasveer lagne lagi hai, kyun uski aankhen mujhe khule aasman ki gahrayi ka ehasaas dilaie hain, kyun us ki ek haseen mere din ko most beautiful pal me badal jaati hai, kyun meri saansen uske aane se hi batakti jaati hai'.yeh mujhe kaya ho raha hai'.kya mai haalat se bagh rawhi hun ya khud se, kyun aaina mai dekti hun magar chavi uski nazar aati hai, kyun shringar main kart hi magar, nazren uski mujhe sajathi hain, kyun saans mai leti hun magar har dhadkan uski mujhe yaad dilate hai, kyun yeh apanpana, kyun ye thar tharathi nazren, kyun yeh kampte hont, kyun ye jhukti palken '.kyun sab mujhe samrat aur uske hone ka ehsaas dilate hai
Gunjan's realisation VM by Gina
Har baat kyun uske naam me aake ruk jaata hai
Ha khayal kyun uski yaadon me aake tahar jaata hai
Har nazar kyun uski nigahon me Sama jaata hai
Har pal kyun uske na hone ka ehsaas dilata hai
Jab woh nazren milata hai toh nazren sharm se jhuk jaati hai
Jab woh bolta hai toh dil ki leheren khil jaati hai
Jab woh pyar se dektha hai toh dhadkane tham jaati hai
Jab woh paas aata hai to rooh kamp ut thi hai
Jab woh naraz hota hai dil kyun bechaini me ghir jaata hai
Jab woh hansta hai toh dil kyun naachne lagta hai
Uski ek nazar zindagi ka sirah kyun ban jati hain
YEh hulchul jo har waqt mujhe apne saat dooba rahi hai
Yeh mere dil ka pyar hai ya jaanat ki bahaar hai
mere sabr ke imtehan ka anth hua kahan
Is pyar ki shuruat hui kab aur kahan
Aye dil in sawalon ka jawab kahan
Is pyar me khile is dil ka gulzar kahan
Making a firmn resolve and giving away to the feeling in her heart finally accpeting defeat
Agar uske liye bewajah bechain hona, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar hai
Agar uski raah bewaqt takte rehna, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar hai
Uske yaad me har pal yun tadapna, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar hai
uske chehre ke jahroke ke liye eintezaar karna, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar haii
Uski nazron se nazren milake dil ke aaine me jahaanka, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyaar hai
siwai uske kisika kahyal na hona, na parwa karna, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar hai
kisi ummed ke bina uski jholi me khushiyan bharna, pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar hai
apne se zyada uske wajood ki sachai par bahrosa karna pyar hai to haan mujhe pyar hai
na kisi ka dar no koi baat ki fikar na kisi hadon ki khabar
bas parwah hai toh us ehsaas ka jisse uska dil hai abhi tak bekhabar
intezaar hai toh hai un khoosoorat lamhom ka jinme woh hai mere paas har paher
uski pyar ki ummeden sajaye har nazar
kab milengi payar ke sargam ki yeh lehar
banwara man na samjhe, hame unse pyar hai kis kadar
