Its pretty long...here u go...!:):)
Chapter 8
Two beauties stepped on the front gate, as they met the sight ahead, evry1 was dancing and enjoying to their full.
"Cool" dia grinned as she stared around at the decorations and the rowdy party.
"Yeah pretty" gunjan smiled.
A pathway stretched ahead of them while at the sides it was like a park, it was held open with round tables and seats placed. The pathway lead to the dancefloor ahead and a drinks corner at the side, with the DJ on the other side.
"Hey Dia!" they turned on hearing benji's voice he was calling them from the far corner where there gang was seated.
Gunjan and Dia smiled as they headed towards them.
Samrat was awed as his gaze met gunjan's she looked beautiful like a princess.(she's looking exactly the same when she was wearing her red sleeveless churidar in the special sajan date,)
"Hi" samrat smiled as he stood up and pulled the chair for gunjan.
She smiled and took the seat "thanks"
"u gals look gorgeous" he smiled at dia and gunjan as he took his seat.
"thanks" dia smiled.
Uday and benji got up from their seats "wanna join us for the dance?" benji asked.
"sure" dia grinned as she took benji's hand.
"gunjan u coming?" samrat asked.
"ermm no" she murmured.
"okay I will get u a drink" samrat smiled and headed off to the drinks corner while gunjan stared at dia and benji dancing together and uday with some other girl.
She blinked as she met a pair of blue eyes gazing at her. A small smile crept up the guys face as he approached her. She looked away a little uncomfortable, the guys intense gaze made her nervous.
Cut to Nupur and suhani
"okay switch it on" suhani murmured as she held the electric mixer in her hand.
"I seriously think we shud take a deeper bowl" nupur said unsure.
"no yaar" suhani murmured as she held the mixer ready.There was flour all over the place, with egg shells lying around and butter melting on the counter in short the kitchen is in a terrible condition lol.
Suhani smiled wearing an apron "switch it on now"
"okay" nupur agreed and switched it on.
Suhani stared wide-eyed at the mixer as it started rotating at a high speed. A little nervously she immersed it into the frosting and the next second it was everywhere, on her cheeks, hand, apron, floor everywhere leaving only a little in the bowl.
Nupur screamed "eeeeee" she plugged it off. "I told u!" she screamed staring around at the mess in distaste.
"oops sowwiee" suhani smiled shyly as she still held the electric mixer, chocolate frosting dripping from it.
Cut to Party
"Hi" the guy greeted her, gunjan felt she had seen him before but couldn't exactly pinpoint it,
"Am armaan" he smiled a little hopefully and then gunjan recalled he was from senior year, basketball captain and the most famous guy around.
"hi" she greeted back a little meekly why is he here?
"can I?" he asked pointed at the seat
"sure" gunjan smiled.
"I guess you are a new student" he started once comfortable on his seat.
"Yeah" gunjan answered.
"I didn't see you around in college" Armaan started
"Oh I saw you, you probably didn't notice" gunjan answered.
"I didn't notice?" Armaan said in a tone as if it was impossible.
"that's not possible" armaan continued. "your name?"
"Hey!" Dia and Benji joined them interrupting their convo.
"Hey Dia" gunjan smiled glad that she was not alone with armaan now.
"where's sameer?" Dia asked armaan.
"ermm must be around" armaan replied totally not interested.
Gunjan stared curiously at Benji, he seemed to be disappointed.
Dia and Benji took seats next to gunjan.
"So Gun what were you two talking about?" dia nudged gunjan teasingly.
"Gun?" armaan mused.
"ya gunjan"
"nice name" armaan smiled his eyes on gunjan, her heart thudded as she looked away, he was breathtakingly good-looking guy. "thanks" she murmured.
Samrat joined them with two drinks in his hand.
"Sorry was chatting with a friend" he stated as he passed her a glass of orange juice.
"No probs" Gunjan smiled as she sipped her drink.
Armaan smiled and stood up "Will c u guys later Bye" he stepped a lil ahead but then turned slowly.
"cya later gun" he winked at her direction as he headed back to the dance floor.
"omg gun, he winked at you!" dia exclaimed.
"wat?" samrat asked perked up.
"Yeah" Dia replied her eyes shining.
"Forget it! M so not interested" Gunjan spoke before dia would continue asking her weird questions.
"Why?" Dia asked.
"Dia" gunjan gave her a stern look.
"Fine" Dia pouted, gunjan turned to find samrat and benji smiling at her amused, she turned back to dia questioningly but she was still pouting looking away.
"ermm why are you two smiling like that?"
"Because you" Benji grinned "probably are the first girl whom armaan approached first"
"oh" was all she could manage, her heart tugged as the thought of such a good-looking guy interested in her crossed her mind, she cast it away passing it merely as an attraction.
"forget about it guys" samrat smiled.
"ya, what job were you offering me?" Gunjan asked wanting to close the armaan topic.
"oh tht!" samrat grinned just then uday joined them.
"Nice timing dude" benji grinned.
"Well chashmish when we were teens we used to work at Uday's dad's restau during summers, now that skul is over we have decided to work as permanent staff there" samrat answered
"Uday you think she can join us?" Benji asked.
"Ofcoz am sure dad wont mind" Uday smiled.
"You know gun" uday smiled "Uncle is the best dad ever"
Gun felt a piercing cut to her heart as she tried to smile. "he loves us the same" benji smiled cheekily.
"Well I love my Dad" Uday grinned at Benji "I don't know how you guys manage to live without your parents..dont u miss them?"
"well we are not so sentimental like you" samrat rolled his eyes.
"Actually 1% senti 99% mental" Benji grinned.
All of them laughed but dia stopped spotting gunjan's sad expression, suddenly the thought crossed her mind as she eyes the rest to shut up.
Gunjan felt the ump form in her throat as tears stung her eyes. She looked up at their smiling faces, her vision blurred she blinked to keep the tears away, but they were threatening to fall. Samrat met her gaze and slowly his smile died as he gulped frozen for a moment.
"Excuse me" gunjan mumbled and headed out.
"damn she's hurt now" dia exclaimed disturbed.
"I didn't mean to" Uday spoke gravely as he stared at gunjan's retreating back.
"I know how am I supposed to cheer her up now?" Dia groaned.
"I'll go say sorry" Uday stoo up but samrat stopped him.
"No I will, candy u relax" samrat smiled and followed gunjan.
Cut to Nupur & Suhani
"I hope it tastes good" suhani sighed as she pushed away the table to the side, both the girls were in their night dress.
"me too, warna to mehnat waste ho jaegey by god!" nupur replied as she spread the mattress nd placed the fluffy pillows.
The two headed to the kitchen, suhani placed the popcorn packets in the microwave "Nupur am proud of you" suhani grinned "you send gun to the party today that was a nice and big step from your side"
"I know I think she needs to come out of her shell" nupur smiled.
"yeah" suhani grinned as she took the popcorns from the microwave.
"lets go my brave nupzi" suhani gave nupur a peck on her cheeks as the two entered the hall-cum-bedroom. Nupur grinned finally suhani and her dream of watching DDLJ once together was going to come true.
"Just then the cell rang" Nupzi pls attend it" suhani requested as she inserted the CD into the player.
"ofcoz" nupur agreed.
"Hello" she greeted enthusiastically
"May I speak to Suhani" a quite irritated voice 'greeted' her back.
"sure, who's this?" nupur asked grinned even this mannerless guy couldn't eb her excitement right now.
"Mayank sharma, Suhani's boss" Nupur's eyes popped as the phone slipped from her hand, she caught it again.
"ohh god" she squeeked. Suhani turned, nupur threw the cordless towards her on the fluffy cushion "su boss phone pe hain" mayank could hear the muffled voice.
"hello" suhani answered.
"Suhani, Stylon & Co. ke contract papers kahan hain?" mayank asked irritated.
Suhani gaped.
"kya hua?" nupur asked surprised.
"sir" suhani blinked "paper mere pass hain ghar main, woh file tayyar karni thi na isliye" she said meekly.
"File to aaj tumne mujhey dedi to phir contract papers tumhare ghar main kya kar rahe hain!?" he asked a little annoyed.
"sorry sir" suhaani mumbled.
"mujhey un papers ki abhi zaroorat hai, main tumhare ghar aa raha hoon..bye" mayank ended the call before suhani could say a word.
"Nooo" suhani groaned.
"wat?" nupur asked.
"He's coming home!" suhani jumped. "we need to clean up!"
"shit!" nupur cursed
"fast fast" suhani jumped as she picked the pillows while nupur rolled the mattress.
Suhani entered the room again "crap! Help me with the table" she called.
"This was a bad idea" Nupur groaned.
"Yeah, must have shifted the TV to the bedroom na nupzi?" suhani said sarcastically as she rolled her eyes.
Together the two started cleaning up the hall.
Cut to SAJAN
Samrat sighed as he noticed gunjan stand next to a car her back facing him, he stepped ahead just when he noticed gunjan wipe her tears.
"gunjan" he whispered.
Gunjan froze at first but then slowly turned. Samrat stood next to her.
"we are sorry" he whispered with innocent eyes.
"Please don't say sorry" her voice cracked a little, she cleared her throat and continued "It's stupid of me-"
"No, Its natural" he blinked, gunjan held her tears back and met samrat's gaze.
"Life goes on" he whispered "and one has to accept the changes"
Gunjan's face crumpled in anger "easy said than-"
"God hasn't been kind with me either" he whispered interrupting her,
Gunjan nodded anger leaving her as she poured her heart out. "I miss him, he was my shelter, the very air I breathed, how could he leave me?" A lone tear rolled down her cheeks.
"You have your sister" samrat emphasized making her realize that destiny didn't play that bad with her.
"m a burden" gunjan's voice came strained "she..my college expenses, my living, Bauji gve her my responsibility..she is burdened by me, I can see it, she places me before herself, I cant see her sacrificing all the time.." gunjan stopped "you wont understand" she ended staring at him with hard eyes.
"Sometimes we feel our sufferings are worst" Samrat sighed "I was 14 when my uncle molested me" Gunjan stared shocked at samrat who was staring offspace telling his own miserable tale.
"When I told mum she filed a case against him, my dad tried to hush the issue and my mum divorced him, they got divorced because of me, mom cried at nights and the reason was me" For the first time samrat confessed his feelings to someone, he never told his friends, they came to know on their own with time.
"my dad blamed me for everything, the court forbade him to try and contact me or my mom, and she still cried….because of me…That night I left home, I joined excel school and then excel college" Samrat ended and turned to gunjan "and see chashmish today am happy" he smiled.
"I…I didn't-"
"You didn't know" samrat nodded knowingly his smile intact
"Your mom-" gunjan started but samrat cut her off.
"There are many things you don't know chashmish" samrat smiled his eyes tinkling with mischief.
"Like?" gunjan asked understanding that e didn't want to talk about his personal life.
"like..you have a friend like me" samrat grinned with certain air-headedness "like" he continued "you are special, that you are one of the most beautiful person I have ever met" he ended gazing at her.
Gunjan's breathed hitched as the light brown eyes stared so sweetly at her, her heart thudded as she looked away.
"Don't look away" he mused, understanding the shy side of her, gals do get dazzled by him easily.
"me?"
"yeah, everytime I meet your eyes, you look away am I such a bad looking guy?"
Gunjan giggled while samrat smiled glad that he could make her laugh.
Gunjan's laughter died in her throat as she met his meaningful gaze.
She moved forward and hugged him.
"thanks" she murmured as she listened to the rhythm of his heart. Samrat wrapped his arms around her smiling feeling new and different.
Gunjan broke the hug after a little while.
"lets go, join the party" samrat suggested.
"yeah sure"
Cut to Suhani & Nupur
"Phew! Room saaf ho gaya" suhani heaved a sigh as she sat on the sofa.
"yeah" nupur entered the room.
Both of their eyes popped as they stared at each other.
"we didn't change!" they exclaimed together. Just then the doorbell rang.
"main chali" nupur squeaked making her escape but suhani caught her hand.
"don't even think abou tit nupzi" she glared as she pulled nupur along till the door.
Suhani opened the door and blushed furiously as mayank stood dressed perfectly in his beige pants and classy brown shirt.
Mayank entered and stared at suhani amused.
"Hello" she greeted
"hello" mayank greeted back as he met a pair of beautiful brown eyes, it was nupur standing behind suhani.
"Contract papers?" he asked.
Suhani's head snapped "one minute" she made a run to her room, glad to be out of his sight.
Nupur smiled half-heartedly as she met mayank's eyes again.
"So you live here..with suhani?"mayanka sked.
"yes sir" she murmured.
"Don't call me sir after office hours" he murmured a little uncomfortable.
"ermm than wat do I call you?" she asked dazed.
"mayank would be fine" he flashed a small smile and nupur's heart took a leap.
Suhani entered again.
"am so sorry, I forgot to get it to office today"
"Its okay" mayank took the file from her.
"how abt a cup of coffee?" suhani smiled.
"actually" mayank seemed to be deep in thought as he stared at the two.
"I think it's a great idea" nupur smiled truly 'not' liking the idea.
Mayank nodded and and agreed.
Suhaani went to the kitchen while mayank sat at the couch with a very uncomfortable nupur infront of him.
He was quite surprised to see her hair disheveled left open as a few bangs fell on her face.
As if she had read his mind she pulled her hair back and smiled at him.
"So…. excited abt your job?" he asked.
"yes" she smiled.
"Is this your first?" he asked curious.
"my first job u mean, yeah"
"what were you doing today morning?" he tilted his head a little curiously "in the elevator"
"ohh that! Ermm basic yoga" she replied mentally hitting herself.
Just then suhaani entered with 3 cups of coffee.
"No celebrations?" mayank asked surprised a little while later.
Suhani couldn't hold herself and let out a giggle.
She met their questioning gaze.
"we baked a cake, but I guess it turned out miserable" A smile crept up on mayank's face.
"It couldn't be that bad" nupur mumbled disappointed.
"you trust my cooking so much" suhani muttered.
"no never! I trust my cooking" nupur replied rolling her eyes.
"okay so lets test your cooking" suhani said enthusiastically.
She ran to the kitchen and brought a piece of cake in a plate.
"mayank will taste it" nupur stated.
"okay" suahni agreed.
Mayank gulped, how come he got into the middle of all this?
"ohh cmon its not going to be that bad" nupur rolled her eyes.
Mayank sighed and took a bite, it was very sugary, and the crust wasn't hard either, a lot of dark chocolate included with pieces of chocohip (well wat do u expect he's a perfectionist as is said😛)
"so?" nupur asked.
"I better leave" mayank smiled as he picked his briefcase and the file.
"hey it cant be that bad" nupur's disappointed tone stopped him
"when did I say that?" he questioned turning back. Nupur's face glowed.
"thanx for the Coffe and cake, Goodbye" he bid them and headed towards the door while suhani and nupur followed till the door.
Cut to SAJAN
The gang was at its usual cracking jokes and all sorts of gossips, gunjan was having a great time.
"what are they doing here?" benji mumbled staring at the gate.
All of them turned to spot RV and his minions.
"well it's a fresher's party" gunjan replied not understanding benji at all
"Exactly gun" dia murmured "It's a fresher's party"
RV & his gang
"Bachchon ne to maza kar lia, now lets make it some real fun" RV smirked.
"Babes" he turned his head a little.
"yes baby" sheena smiled coyly as she headed towards the dance floor, while rv and his gang got seated on on eof the tables.
RV sighed and stared around, he met samrat's gaze and then spotted the whole gang with a certain air-headedness and a typical evil smirk he approache them.
Cut to Suhani & Nupur
"Hayye" Nupur supported her back on the door staring off space dreamily. "su pakad mujhe"
Suhani laughed.
"yeh woh sadu akdu nahin tha jiski tu baat karti thi"
"hmm true, uska mood achcha tha shayad, office chalegey to pata chalega" suhani replied.
"Par yaar office main chalta hai" nupur spoke in a typical kajol style still lost in her mayank dreamland "strict hona padta hai"
"Oye nupur kumari khwabon ki galiyon se niklo aur DDLJ ke raj ke bare main socho" Saying this suhaani pulled nupur along. Together they turned the hall back to their comfy bedroom and played the movie.
Chap ENDS

"What do we do now?" Dia asked nervous
"Lets go home" Samrat suggested "I'll drop you"
"Are you mad?" Dia exclaimed.
"weelllll sam I think…"benji stopped midway deep in thought.
"You think a lot benji" gunjan rolled her eyes……………………………
Su & Nupzi
"Gunjan aur dia abhi tak ghar kyun nahin aaye?" nupur asked yawning.
"chill aa jaengey" suahni replied sipping her drink
"hmmm" nupur popped a popcorn in her mouth and turned her attention back to the movie.
