Hello friends,
Here is my next part. Its a long one compared to previous parts, so I hope you enjoy it. Part 4 - When they met
********************************************************
"Shut up dude!! Abhi jaldi chal. We are already Late. Uska plane land ho bhi chuka hoga." Samrat said as they entered the terminal building.
There were many people moving around in the building, People who work at the airport, people who were being received, people who didn't have anyone to receive them, and people who were there to receive someone. Just like us- Benji thought and looked around, trying to figure out whom they are supposed to receive, something hit a little cell of his brain.
"Ohh freeze!! If you haven't seen her, not a single time, then how are we supposed to find her?"
"Benji, sign boards kisliye hote hain?" Samrat was still in a relaxed state.
"Haan par filhaal hamare pas nahi hai" -Benji
Now it was samrat's turn. He looked at benji in disbelief.
"Dude? Tuzhe wo board diya tha na car me wo kaha hai?"
"Car me diya tha to car me hi hoga."
"To leke kaun ayega?"
"Obviously!! Main" – benji made a small face and started walking out.
Samrat looked at the direction and shook his head, Bas yehi baki tha, dude are you kidding with me? – he said looking at the sky.
Just then he bumped on a girl who was busy talking on her cell phone. The girl lost her balance, samrat impulsively pulled her hand and she landed in his arms. Her eyes were closed; she was very fair, with soft features, brown eyes, specs on them and really long silky hairs. She looked up, into his eyes, completely flabbergasted. Samrat was also dumbstruck, but when he saw her eyes, he was amused.
What is it in her eyes? Is it surprise? Confusion? Fear? Or… Anger! Dude you are still holding her by her waist. Leave her!! – samrat ended his trail of thought and let her go.
She looked at him in disgust and started scanning the floor. Samrat immediately spotted her cell, which was lying dead on the floor in two pieces with the battery out of it. He picked up the pieces and moved towards her. She snatched it from his hand and immediately started walking towards the exit.
Weird girl! Didn't even say thank you. Well maybe because you didn't say sorry… but why should I…? Well because normal people don't just walk looking at sky and bump on random people and then... hold them in arms. – samrat finally decided to be polite.
"Hey miss!..... Hey you!!............ Hellooooo……"
…………………………………………………
Gunjan was dying of boredom. It was quarter to 1 and still she was on the airport. Her flight landed in mumbai at 12.07 PM. she came out of the plane at 12.10PM. She bid goodbye to Mayank at 12.28PM. And since then she was waiting for Jatin uncle's driver, who was supposed to pick her up.
'Gosh !! I hate to wait! Ye saare drivers ek jaise kyu hote hain? Late lateef!! Lagta hain ise bhi theek karna padega, jaise Hari ko kiya tha… gunjan made a mental note of this task while sipping the coffee at the cafeteria.
She looked at the watch once again – 12.51. 'Muze mayank ke sath hi nikal jaana chahiye tha. Sweet guy. Kitne politely lift offer kar raha tha… ab fas gayi na yaha… as she was thinking all this her cell phone rang for the nth time.
"Hello, gunjan? Kaha par ho beta?" Rajat's voice was overconcerned..
"Hi dad.. abhi tak wo driver nahi aaya. Bahut ho gaya. I'm leaving from here now."
"arey nahi beta. Thoda wait karlo. Shayad traffic me fasa hoga. Aata hi hoga"
"Dad itna late? You know na muze 1 minute late hona bhi pasand nahi hain…" she grabbed the handle of her trolly bag and started walking out of the building, " Aur main yaha aadhe ghante se intezar kar rhi hu. Waise bhi muze address pata hain, to main soch rahi hu ke nikal jaau…"
"Ma'm , your purse!" a voice called out from behind.
She turned and found the waiter at the caf holding her bag. She thanked him with a smile and took her bag and was about to turn when someone bumped into her. She lost the grip on mobile and it fell on ground, her purse fell on other side. she knew that just like these two things, she will also fall soon and closed her eyes tightly, when someone pulled her hand and held her. She opened her eyes and was a little surprised to find that she didn't fall. She looked up, only to find a pair of chocolate brown eyes looking at her.
He was looking at her with an amused smile, hmmm.. nice smile, He's good-looking. but why is he looking at me like that? Oh freak! I'm still in his arms… and that too in a public place… and this pervert!! He's not even moving…
She wondered if he read her last thoughts, because he immediately released her. She looked at him in disgust and started looking for her belongings, picked the purse from the floor, while he picked her broken cell phone and handed it to her.
'Ohh dad was on the line!! – she grabbed the phone and immediately started walking out of the building. As she put the battery into the cell and was closing the cover , she heard a voice.
"Hey miss!" … it must be him
"Hey you!!" … Ya… it is him!
"Hello………….!!!" … I better ignore him!
But the person was not ready to let go. He caught with her pace in just 3-4 leaps and stood in front of her blocking her way.
"Now what??"
"Look that was not intentional, and I'm really sorry for that" he said pointing at her mobile in a genuinely regretful voice.
"Fine. Now give me way…"
"Does that mean you forgive me?"
"Does that really matter to you?"
"Ya because once you forgive me, I can ask you to say thank you!" samrat said grinning.
"What?" gunjan shook her head in disbelief. "And why should I say thanks to you?"
"because I saved you from the fall, remember?" Samrat said proudly, raising one eyebrow.
"Well, you know what? I just thought of giving voice to my thoughts. You are a PERVERT! Now go get a life…" gunjan pushed him and stormed towards the exit While samrat stood there, shocked.
It took a moment for him to realize what she has said.
"Pervert?? Whoaa...! Hey you!! How dare you?" he shouted as he followed her.
……………………………………..
Benji was about to enter the building with the sign board of "Ms. Gunjan Bhushan" when he was stopped by a girl.
"To tum ab aa rahe ho?" The girl was fuming.
"Ji aap kaun" Benji looked at her, confused.
"wohi jiska tumhe intezar tha. Ab jyada sawal mat karo. You know, tum poora ek ghanta late ho. Main chahu, to uncle se tumhari complaint karwake tumhe naukri se bhi nikalwa sakti hu…"
As gunjan continued scolding benji, he stood there, clueless.
Complaint ? Naukri? Ye muze samajh kya rahi hain?
"Dekhiye, aapko kuch galat fahmi hui hai… apka jise bhi intezar hai, wo mai bilkul bhi nahi hu"
"To tum ho kaun jo mere naam ka sign board leke ghum rahe ho ? batao…" and she was about to continue , just then samrat reached there.
He was about to say something to gunjan when he noticed a confused benji.
"Dude! Tu aa gaya? Chal ab gunjan ko dhundhte hain!" and before turning to the terminal again, he threw a cold stare at gunjan, "Tumse to main baad me baat karunga."
"Suno.." gunjan called him, "Tum gunjan ko dhundh rahe ho?" Her voice softened suddenly.
"Haan. Kyu? koi problem hain?"
"Nahi! Jise dhundhna chahte ho , wo tumhare saamne ho, aur tumhe firbhi poora airport ghumna ho to muze kya problem hogi." She said indifferently.
Samrat stared at her for a while and a sudden realization hit his head.
"Tum… tumhara matlab… TUM gunjan ho?" – he asked in disbelief.
"Yes! Ab ye bags uthao aur chalo jaldi se… I hate being late" Gunjan replied with attitude and walked towards the parking lot.
Samrat gaped at the direction she went when benji patted his back.
"Sam, kya hua…"
Samrat shook his head and murmured a "nothing" in a low voice.
Great! To ye hain Gunjan, jo aaj se mere ghar me rahegi. I cant stand her for one minute and now…? God tussi great ho… Samrat thought as they walked towards the car.
