Sid gets into completely professional mode and stay such for rest of the day,sid and rids didn't see each other until that afternoon when, sid was walking back from the nursing station towards his cabin , tam and ridhima were walking from the other end 'Sid and ridima bump into each other..It was a quite corridor so there wans't anyone else watching them apart from tam'
Sid's fingers instantaneously goes around ridhima's waist holding her up before she landed on the floor, they were so close that they their cheeks were touching , sid slowly moves upwards so that their eyes could meet, rids could feels sid's breathe on her face'they both look into each others eyes , completely immersed in each other that they forgot to look at tam, suddenly a cool breeze from the ac blows and tams dupatta goes flying in the air covering sid and ridhima's face..tam watches them for a while and seeing that there was no response she goes around and slowly removes the dupatta from their face, ad the fabric glides down their face they both come back into senses .Sid quickly steadies ridhima on her foot and avoids tam's questing eyes and flees from the site..leaving behind ridhima who starts walking away too, tam decided to follow her
Tam: what was that ?
Rids: ( in a tone of pretendence ): kya?
Tam: mai explain karum..voh tum aur side k doosre ki baho mai
Just then a ward boy passes them and ridhima signs tam to quiten
Rids: shhh ! it was only a fall and sid saved me
Tam: yh rite patha hai tum dono ek doosre ki ankho mai esse dekh rehe thee jaisee u had broken up long time ago and the old feeling s were coming alive again'
Ridhima looks in shock at tam's face'
Tam:kahi essa thoo nahi hai ? ( ridhima stops walking and looks at tam in horror) patha hai jis tereh se setting thee it was all quite filmy bus background music ki saroorath thee
Ridhima starts to pace up again
Tam: u know what I saw u guies in a similar position this morning too, ek dine may twice kahi essa thoo nahi hai ki 'u r falling for him ?
Rids: stops are u mad or what?
Tam: mai kya mad hona because that's the impression I get
Rids: shut up tam
Tam: u can shut me up, but u can't close my eyes thought
Rids: hey gotta go for an emergency
Tam: where lol
Rids: eerrrr in the ward
Tam: yh rite since when do we deal with emergencies in the ward ?
Rids looks away knowing there was no way to avoid this matter
Just then her pager beeps and it was an on call for which rids was asked to rush too
Rids: I have a real emergency now, abh thoo jane doo
Tam: sure go
Rids was about to walk off when tam puts her hand on rids's arm
Tam: I do understand all that is happening, sid is not a bad guy at all ( rids :in her mind : janthi hu) and I know he will prove to be the best '
Rids just smiles and walks away because giving an answer at this point wouldn't be wise since, she knew there was still a lot to be spoken and cleared off
Tam: yeh pyar ka ehssas hai bada anoka
She smiles and leaves. It was evening the sunset had occurred, Sid was finally on a long break after a even longer shift, he was accustomed to working long hours so this did not tire him at all, sid had decided to spend his time on the terrace where it was nice and quite, he sat on one of the pavements on the terrace and glared at the beauty of the dark night sky '.a cold breeze blows and sid closes his eyes absorbing in the feeling'..He lies down on the pavement, closes his eyes and rests his head on his hand, he closes his eyes and lies down there thinking about all the events that had occurred during the day,
Sid in his mind has a flash back of how SR shared an eye lock when tam read the astro predictions, later on when SR bumped into each other. He has a light smile recollecting those moments.
'kitne ajeeb se bath hai 7 salo ke beeth jane ke bavjooth kahi na kahi pray ka ehsas ajbei kayam hai'bhalaye he mai apne ape se kitna he jooth bole doo lekin zindagi hai ki sir sach ka daman chathee haiii'
Meanwhile it was Neha's and ridhima's break time too..Neha was busy looking for sid since she liked spending time with Sid'. And also because their friendship were blooming too'
Nurse's station ridhima is reading a file although its her break, Neha walks past rids, she is confused on who to ask when she spots an in going ward boy'ridhima is overhearing the conversation
Neha: hey suno
Ward boy : jee bolo
Neha: kya apne dr modi ko kahi dekha hai
Ward boy: jee voh break par hai
Neha: yh muje patha hai that he is on break, kya tumhe patha hai vvoh kaha hai?
Ward boy : jee I saw him going towards the terrace shayad vahi honge
Neha: oo k ! acha thanku
Neha walks off to the stairs so that she could reach where sid is'ridhima on the other hand has closed the file
Rids( in her mind): neha ko sid se kya kame ho saktha hai jo voh use milne chath par chalee gayi hai ;)
Kahi voh, she loves sid but he is unaware of that , I think I should better go and find out of whats happening'but why should I go because sid is no body to me 'but id I don't go I won't be able to find peace of mind either'.
Ridhima follows neha to the stairs out of partial jealousy and a bit of insecurity, she knew her old feelings were coming to life again but just couldn't accept the fact since there was much to be said between her and sid , she stays at a safe distance while following sid'Neha climbs her way up the stairs on to he terrace Sid who is too lost in his thoughts doesn't realise that the girl is around, he still has his eyes closed and immersed in thoughts'She walks slowly so that she doesn't wake him up with an intention not to wake him up.She has two cups of coffee in her hand'
In the background Ridhima is watching her.Neha wa in Indian outfit for the first time ever time and she was expecting it to be noticed by sid.She very carefully walks to where sid was lying down and places the coffee on the fences of the terrace, she slowly sits down and bends down to speak into Sid's ear. Ridhima on the other hand is watching Neha's action, she is quite restless as unknowingly she doesn't like the closeness between neha and sid ..Neha keeps closing on to Sid, she is few inches from sid when her long hair accidentally drops on to his face and he wakes up.He jerks a little bit, he quickly sits up during which he bumps his head into neha's head
Sid: arrghh! I am soo sorry'let me see ( he goes to hold her head)
Neha: noo noo its k, its only a slight chote don't worry I will be fine'
Sid: hey let me see
Neha : sid I am fine
Ridhimia : 'sid' look at her she is so casual with sid'an sid who thoo use toke bhi nahi reha
Patha nahi sid ko kya ho gaya hai interns ko sar par chada rekha hai..
Sid gets up on his feet an helps neha too and they both stand opposite to each other, facing the sky and ridhima in the background'
Sid: tum yaha kya kar rehi ho ?
Neha: I was on break so socha ki break tumhare sath spend kar diya jaye that's y
Sid: oo
Neha: see I have got coffee for u too, ur favourite drink
Rids: ( mimicks neha ) 'fav drink' huh who is she too get her his fav drink..
Sid: hey thanks neha, its really kind of u..
Rids looks at sid with disappointment
Sid: Umm u always offer me coffee at the perfect time'
Neha: aha and that's what friends are for too offer
Sid : lol ( he grabs the cup of coffee which neha holds out)..thank u
Sid takes a zip and looks around, ridhima hides back to avoid being caught..sid notices that neha was in Indian outfit..
Sid: umm u are in salware kameez today ..how come ?
Neha: well nothing special just felt like trying it
Sid: I have never seen u in salwar kameez before'
Neha: lol yh I have never worn it before either
Sid: ooo so this is your first time around ?
Neha: yep
Sid: aha I have to admit you look awesome
Neha: umm is this an honest comment or are u just trying to be kind ?
Sid: lol very honest y should I lie
Ummm'also white suits u ..
Ridhima: white sid ka favourite colour
Neha: thanku 'umm'white ur favourite colour rite ?
Sid: hey how do u know that?
Neha: dr sidhant modi I know more about u than ureally think u doo
Sid twitches his eyes
Sid: oo ! so what else do u know about me ?
Neha: a lot more
Sid drinks another zip of coffee, sid and neha were restinf their backs on the fences
Sid: like ?
Neha: u will find out in due course of time
Ridhima twitches her eyes as she feels Neha is not the right person
Sid : lol
Neha: so then Dr sidhianth modi what were u thinking when I walked in
Sid: nothing ( looks away taking another zip of coffee)
Neha: obviously there was something on ur mind and that glow on ur face said everything
Sid: what glow
Neha: I don't know saw this very special expression on ur face which I have never seen before'ummm lem me guess u were thinking about someone special
Sid: lol I don't such 'someone special ' in my life I am single
Rids who was listening to the conversation was relieved to find that sid did not have anyone in his life ..she didn't know why but it did matter to her..
Neha: umm if u say sooo
Sid: I was only admiring the beauty of this night ( they turn to the sky)
It's a beautiful night , a clear full moon and lots of star and not very chilly breeze, u know it viands up even very sorted people'
Neah: well! I guess u got carried away into some sort of romance
Sid: lol slightly, a tiny 'mini bit but I am still single though
Lol
Neha : lol'it is indeed a very beautiful night and has a huge potential to bring some special feelings
Sid: ummm its hard to describe ..u can only feel it
Ridhima who was over hearing the conversation was increasingly becoming insecure over the connection that SN were having at that instance..
Sid closes his eyes with the mug in his hand, a light breeze blows on his face, neha turns to sid and observes the way he was cherishing the moment
Neha ( in her mind ); sid I just cannot help myself from falling for u'wonder why dr ridhima left such a gem like u (she smiles)
Sid opens his eyes and feels estatic,he looks towards the sky with a wide smile
Sid turns to neha, he grabs her mug and puts his and her mug on the fence and turn to her..
Neha has confused expression on her face'
Sid holds he wrist and guides her to the middle of the terrace..
Ridhima: yeh sid kya kar reha hai
He stops once they are in the middle of the terrace
He extends his hand
Sid: dance ?
Neha: sure
lifts her hand to place it on his shoulder and guides his fingers iaround her waist and entangles her fingers with hers
sid: u know u have never been in such a mood in years, I think it's the night which is doing its charisma
neha : no worries I understand
sid starts singing and they start dancing simultaneously
( this is the song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5WmQY5EAMk&playnext=1&list=PLDB40A1354B65E833&index=98)
sid:Yeh nayan dare dare
Ye h jame bhare bhare
Zara pene doo kal ki kisko khabar
Ek rath ho ke nidar muje ee jine doo
Hmm..hmm
Sid starts to sing when neha over takes, he is surprised that she knew the song as it was a very old song
Ridhima who is listening to sid singing and watching them dance gets back to her own memories of her irst dance with sid on the holi night and then to the other one in the hospital where they got caught
Neha :rath haseen, yeh chande haseen,
Tu sabse haseen mere dil bar
rath haseen, yeh chande haseen,
Tu sabse haseen mere dil bar
Aur tujse haseen ---
Aur tujse haseen ---Tera pyar
Thuu janee naa yeh nayan dare dare
Ummm 'umm'
Ridhima turns and rests her rests her back on the wall behind her , she has flash backs of images of sid and her together, during their happy times'and a small smile plays around her face..
Sid: Pyar mai hai jeevan ki khushi
Deti hai khushi kayi gum bhi
Pyar mai hai jeeva ki khushi
Deti hai khushi kayi gum bhi
Mai man bhi luu---
Mai mane bhi lu---
Kabhi harr
Thuuu mane naa
Sid drifts away to his moments of eye lock with ridhima from this morning
SN ( together ):Yeh nayan dare dare
Yeh jame bhare bharee
Zara peene doo, kal ki kisko khabar
Ek rath hok neday'
Muje jeene doo
..hmmm 'hmmm
They finish singing and they both part away from each other, sid smiles at neha and neha claps in retuns
Ridhima comes back to reality and turns her attention to SN
Neha: u are an awesome singer
Sid: so are u, infact I am surprised that u knew this song as its such an old song
Neha: well I am full of suprises dr modi
Sid: lol I could see that
Neha: but seriously u are an awesome singer..did u sing at all
Sid: umm use too long time ago
Rids( in her mind ): I never knew sid sang .. well I knew very little about sid anyway we never really got to know more about each other because of the stuff that kept happening in our life ( she meant arman's stupid actions)
Neha: how long exactly ?
Sid: ummm during high school time
Neha: did u never sing afterwards ?
Sid: nope, life got complicated after and I had to drift away from music...
Neha: u should start again then
Sid: lol waqt nahi hai
Neha; sid buddy u are talented and u should exercise ur talents'
Sid: umm may be we will see..its hard to get back to old things ( he has an image of ridhima while taking)
Neha: well u don't have to infact old things are coming back to you and now its choice to accept it
All sid could think of at that point was about ridhima'
Sid: hmm( he walks away) we will see..lets go with the flow for now
Neha: ummm..soo whats ur take on love ?
Sid:
Pyar mai hai jeevan ki khushi
Deti hai khushi kayi gum bhi
Neha: kafi oetic hoo
Sid: lol
Neha: I only understand words so lets speak in good English or hindi either ways its fine
Sid : well! Pyar its one of the most beautiful experience of life'( he looks with dreamy eyes)
Jab koyi pyar mai padtha hia thoo he stops thinking about himself and all he could see then is the person he/she loves and he is ready to do anything for her.her
Neha: umm'I hope I am not touching on any sensitive issues
Sid: hey! Noo, I am fine plus we are sort of good friends by now so we can talk'
Neha: is this how it was for u when u fell in love?
Sid:yh absolutely word to word ( dreamy eyes)
Neha :people say true love happens only once is that right
Sid : hmm'yh true love only happens once..its one of those chances which is offered only once
Neha: how many girl friends did u have before u fell for ur one ?
Sid: well! When I started my internship in india I fell for a fellow intern did everything to express my love for her but it never worked out, I was devastated when she left lol and u wouldn't believe when I went to see her off at the airport that's when I first met my wife..well ex- wife (with sadness)
The words hit ridhima's ears and set her back
Neha :really ( curiously )
Ridhima recollects images of their first encounter
Sid: yh
Neha: so was this love @ first site
Sid: lol nooo noo it was hatred at first sight she slapped and got me arrested n the first day itself'
Neha: lol did she
Sid : lol
Ridhima: lol on her stupid acts
Sid: then I found out that she was my senior doc at my hospital, 6 moths senior to me ..although she had authority I always dared to challenge her authority because I found her too arrogant then .. we had a whole episode of fights and arguments'.so on
Neha: so when did u fall for each other
Sid : ( with slight sadness) well! That's the twist in the story we never felt for each other , I fell for her it was more or less a one way traffic
Neha: how come u fell for her if there was initially so much of hatred
Sid: well when its time everything just falls into places
I soon found out about her past , that she had an unfortunate experience from her previous love , I felt sympathetic towards her and since even I was out from a break up , she soon found out that her lover was I decided to help and accompanied her to find him and then one cold night changed our destiny she was hit by hypothermia and as a doc I had to save her through exchange of thermal heat, rest kya thaa because it was india , and things around just highly influenced us ..we were force to marry each other
Neha : and then
Sid: on our wedding night she attempts to commit suicide, which causes turbulence in our life afterwards'and finally when everything was falling into place her ex-lover decided to make a come back and we are again torn back..but then she chooses me over him and we decide to start all over again, but that wasn't the beginning we were looking for,sid explains rest of the story to neha
Neha: ( has tears in her eyes) I am sorry to hear this'
Sid: well don't be ..sabe nazeeb ka khel hai
Ridhima had a small peck of tear flowing down her eyes
Neha: so do u hate her ?
Sid: no,never she taught me what true love was..for giving some cherish able memories
I left her for her happiness and that was my love which I showed and where there is love there is no existence of hatred'
It wasn't her fault that she could never move on '.perhaps certain things are just way beyond our control in life'I can never hate her because she taught me to love, to love selflessly 'the purest form of love is pure selfless'I have got much respect for now even now , it hurts sometimes thinking I lost her but there is nothing I can do about it
(Ridhima now has tears flowing down her eyes, she realises how much respectable this man for he still liked he inspite of all that she did to him )
Perhaps this is how things are meant to be in life'
Neha: so did u stop loving her ?
Sid: I had too, because to me back then she was gonna be someone else's which meant I had lost all my authority on her so yh I tried my best to forget her, I didn't even visit India for a long time time until recently when I thought it was time to take chances'
Ridhims ( in her mind) : I know I am responsible for all ur grief, patha hai ki sabe meri ghathi hai kash ki '
Neha: have u never considered another relationship after
Sid: well nooo
Sid: hey! Hum bhi na kya topic lay kar bayate gaye hai'
Neha: noo not over yet
Sid: abe kya I have told u everything about me
Neha: but what about me 'picture abhi baki hai
Sid: rite bolo whats ur story ?
Neha: well! I fell for a guy who is older than me
Sid: fine isme kya problem hai , love doesn't consider age
Neha: well there Is another problem
Sid: voh kya ?
Neha : he is divorced and has a kid too
Sid: well in that case I guess u need to know him more and confess ur love when u think itsappropriate
Neha : really ?
Sid: yh
Neha : what if that gu is u
Sid: kya ?
Ridhima is shocked at the fact how neha had confessed her love straightway '
Sid: tumhara dimage thoo theek hai ?
Neha : yh well sid I knew partially about ur past and today u told me ur full story and I know dr ridhima was ur ex-wife
Both ridhima and sid are shocked at that point
Sid: how do u know that
Neha: well told u I know a lot about u, more than u think u know, I even know about rahuls's past
And that he is ur brother's son not urs
Sid has his mouth open in complete surprise..
Dude I first saw u when I came to st thomas hospital in london, where I attended ur conference, I was captured by ur charm there, but an extensive research made me discover all those things about u which I previously never knew and trust me the more I knew about u the more I came closer to u.. even st pauls is no co-incidence I have spend moths of hard work just to have this opportunity to work with u
Dr sidhant modi I love u and pls I don't need a quick reply u can take ur time
Sid comes back to his senses
Sid: lol tum pagal ho gayi hoo'.
Neha: walking backwards : dr sidhant modi I love , I love u and I love u ..u cann't stop me from loving u and if ur answer is a nooo I am ready to wait until it turns to a yess'(she laughs) right now I need to get back to my duty ee u soon
Saying this she runs to the stairs , ridhima hides in the corner to stay unnoticed by neha
Ridhima looks back in horror
Sid come closer to the dorr and then loudly
Sid : nehaa tum pagal ho gayi ho, perhaps u don't know yaha ane ke bade mere purane zakam taza ho gaye hai and I am getting dragged back into my past'kash ki mai tumhe yeh ssamja patha
Ridhima over hears this and clearely knows what that mean..
The camera zooms out on parallel images of sid and ridhima
