I was just randomizing..in this section when I caught the title of yer FF..and that just did it for me...I love the song by cliff richards.. so much so that I even like its hindi remake😆never mind my ranting..

Hey Amy,
Sonali sent me this link and I read through the entire FF in one sitting ... you write very engagingly and I love the way you've shaped your Sam Gunjan and their story, and also the way you've written all the other characters as well ... makes the story so much more complete and well rounded ... especially enjoyed the interaction between shilpa and Gunjan, and between Suhani and Gunjan. Also enjoyed the Adhi-Su -Sam tension you brought in ...
and I love the song Que sera sera ... you used it beautifully ...

Not to forget, Mahesh Thakur is one of my favourite actors and I can just visualise him as Sam's dad ... he has the same naughty twinkle in his eye ... very apt casting 😆 ... and of course, Shilpa is great as sam's mom
will look fwd to your next update 😃 and to your usage of the title song ... 😳 whenever that happens ...

hey awsome ff dear

Hey frnds😃
how r u all,

Here is the next part of the story. sorry for a short update.

Part 17 - (A souvenir and a broken heart)
****************************************************

Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees….

Samrat was lost in john mayor's gravity when Suhani knocked on his doors.

"May I come in, sir?" She asked mocking politeness.

"Yes?" said samrat.

"Sir, your tea.. your mother told you didn't come down for breakfast today.." Suhani said politely, turning the volume of the stereo low.

"Ya, I was sleeping." Samrat replied chewing the biscuit suhani had brought with the tea,"Yar aajkal room service bahut kharab hain tumhari. Ye kaunse biscuits hain?" he said making sour face.

"Oye, itne paise me itnaich milenga!!" suhani said and they both laughed.

"Accha sam, muze ye batao ke baat kaha tak aayi hain?" Suhani asked curiously.

"Kaunsi baat?" Samrat stared at her blankly.

"Tumhari aur gunjan ki.."

"Sue please! Aisi koi baat hai hi nahi.."

"Nahi hain , to ho bhi to sakti hain na… tum log kitne cute lagte ho saath me, aur acche dost bhi ho ek dusre ke.. u two are just.."

"stop it sue!" Samrat said sternly, "Maine tumhe keh diya hain ke mere aur gunjan ke beech aisa kuch nahi hain. Aur kabhi hoga bhi nahi."

"But kyu sam.. don't you like Gunjan?" asked suhani.

"I like her. but as a friend. Dekho sue, Ye pyar, ye sab muze bakwas lagta hain… Gunjan se to kya main kisise bhi pyar nahi karna chahta. I mean it feels good at the start.. At first you float through the clouds and everything is new, then the reality of relationships set it and the magic carpet ride is over! That's it… the gravity works against you."As samrat said this suhani turned off the stereo.

"That's why I tell you, don't listen to john mayer… stupid gravity.. there's nothing like that… love never fades.." She said in one go..

"Oh really? Then what happened to you and Adhiraj? Where's the gravity, the attraction between you?" Samrat asked her sarcastically as she turned her back on him hiding a lone tear which escaped her eye, "Getting your hopes up only causes more disappointment in the end, sue!"

A sob escaped her mouth as samrat said this.

"Sue.. im sorry" samrat held her by her shoulders and made her face him, "I didn't want to hurt you. But I really don't want to repeat the same mistake which you did."

"It was not a mistake, I love him.." Suhani said thru her now , free-flowing tears.

Samrat felt bad about hurting her, he hugged her and rubbed her back. He made a note in his mind not to fall in love blindly.

………………………….

"I hate this dad!! 4 din ki chandni, baaki andheri raat…? Aapko itni jaldi kyu jaana hain?" Gunjan pouted as her dad told her about his return to Jamnagar.

"Gunjan, Beta mera bhi man nahi karta tumhe chod ke jaane ka. Magar Kya karu.. jaana to padega." Rajat said taking her in his arms.

"Will miss you dad!!" gunjan said in a low voice.

"Main bhi.." Rajat said wiping her tears, opened his bag and started searching for something.

"Dad.. ye aap kya kar rahe hain. I packed your stuff so nicely and you are.." Gunjan complained when Rajat took out something from his bag, "Dad.. ye kya hain?"

"This is your mother's last memory." Rajat said with heavy heart, "Gunjan, jab tumhari mom hame chod kar chali gayi thi tab main bahut toot chukka tha, Jeene ki sirf tum wajah thi. Uski har ek cheez, har ek yaad mere saamne us accident ko khada kar deti thi jisme maine meri Indu ko kho diya. Muze un yaadon se door rehna tha, bas! Isliye us haadse ke baad maine Mumbai chod ke Jamnagar jaane ka faisla kiya. Aur un sabhi yaadon ko khud se door rakha, yaha tak ke tumse bhi kabhi Indu ke baareme baat karna jaroori nahi samjha.. Par maine tumhare bare me kabhi socha hi nahi… muze pata hi nahi chala ke main tumhe apni mom se door rakh raha hun. I was unfair beta.. I'm a bad dad."

"Nahi dad… muze aapse koi shikayat.."

"No beta, please let me speak.."Rajat stopped gunjan and handed over the audio record to her, "This is your mother's only thing I have. And this is your's now. I'm sorry, I kept you away from your mom and her memories for so long.. agar main yaha nahi aata, aur muze shilpa aur Jatin nahi batate ke tum apne mom ko kitna miss karti ho, to shayad main kabhi ye jaan bhi nahi paata.. I'm sorry beta, I'm really sorry.." As rajat said this gunjan hugged him.

"Dad.. please don't say sorry. I cant see you crying. Muze pata hain aap mom se kitna pyar karte hain. Aur main ye bhi jaanti hu ke aapko unki yaadein bahut satati hain.. isiliye maine kabhi is topic par aapse baat nahi ki." Gunjan said, tears flowed from her eyes. Rajat looked at her lovingly, and wiped her tears.

"Tumhe pata hain.. tum world ki best daughter ho?" Rajat said with a smile.

"Yes dad.. Aur aap world ke best dad! And thank you for this record. You know I always wanted to listen this.. par aapne ise aapke study room me band karke rakha tha.." She said and hugged him again.

"yes I know," Rajat smiled, " Ab chalo, muze airport chodne nahi aaogi kya.. 2 ghante me flight hain mera, aur tum abtak ready nahi ho.."

"Ohho.. dad! Don't worry. Ham samrat ke car me jaa rahe hain, wo to hame airport 30 mins me le jayega.." said gunjan.

But she was wrong, Samrat was actually faster than that. He took only 25 mins to reach airport.

……………………..

Gunjan spent the rest of the evening in her room only. She was very upset after her dad's departure to Jamnagar, but she had found her mom's record now. She stared at the record, touched it, smelled it, kissed it infinite times. She could sense her mother's presence in that room.

9.30 PM. Gunjan was still in her room. She didn't go down for dinner, so Shilpa sent samrat to her room.

"Mallika-e-jamnagar, agar ijajat ho to andar aa sakta hu?" Samrat said knocking on the half open door. Gunjan quickly wiped her tears off and straightened her dress.

"Aaiye aaiye Mumbai ke Samrat jee. Aap hi ki kami thi." she said playfully.

"Aaj khana khane ka irada nahi ha…" samrat started but noticed her puffy eyebags, "Chashmish? Ro rahi thi?"

She tried to look away, but he held her hands and made her face him.

"Kya hua?" he said with concern.

"Kuch nahi"

"Muze nahi bataogi?"

"Bas , aisehi, dad ki bahut yaad aa rahi thi.." Gunjan said as her eyes struggled to keep the tears from flowing.

"Bas , itni see baat? Chalo yaar.. cheer up.. ham sab hain na?" he said as she nodded in agreement, "wash your face and come down… sab wait kar rahe hain."

"Ok." Gunjan smiled at him and entered the bathroom, while samrat noticed the gramophone record on her table. He took it in his hands and studied it with curiosity.

You are my theme.. by cliff Richards. Who the hell is he? – he thought reading the label on the record.

"Sam!! Sam!!" Suhani called him from downstairs.

"Coming!!" he shouted and hurried to go down, but then turned back to keep the record on the table, But unfortunately he lost the grip and it fell on the corner of the table. As he tried to pick it up he noticed a scratch on the record.

"Oh shit!!" he cursed himself.

"Samrat, main soch rahi thi ke.." Gunjan said coming out of the bathroom but stopped when she saw the record in his hands.

"Hey Chashmish! I'm really sorry. But.. u know.. I didn't… I mean, it was an accident.." As he stammered on every word, Gunjan took the record in her hands and inspected the record.. It was damaged, and it was beyond repair now.. tears flew from her eyes.

"No no.. please don't cry… I'll make it alright.. please…" samrat said but froze as Gunjan gave him a stern look.

"Please leave me alone.." She said with shaky voice.

"Chasmish.."

"Samrat please!!"

And he walked out with heavy heart. His chashmish, his best friend was hurt, and for the first time, she preferred privacy over his company. And it was making him mad at himself.

Never mind. It's just a record. I'll buy her another one.. he thought to himself.

But he didn't know how important that was for Gunjan.
