Chapter Sixteen (a)
Hey peeps. *Hugs* Sorry for the delay,
Mayank, at the night reached Simla. He was happy, he smsed Nupur, "Hey, I reached Simla.".Nupur was happy reading this and then, she asked him "Where are u gonna stay this night?". Mayank smiled reading this and replied "At your house, :)", Nupur replied "WHAT! At my house? Are u mad??" Mayank smiled and adored this thing then sweetly replied "I am gonna give u the surprise standing in front of u, in your house. I promise." Nupur replied "Waiting..."
Nupur, in her heart somewhat knew that what was he about to do, what was the surprise for. She just wanted to hear the three golden words from Mayank's mouth. He reached her house with the same old method he used for the certificates.
When he was down her room he looked for the stairs, and finally he was up there. He went up and knocked Nupur's window. Nupur knew it would be Mayank only, she stepped forward and then opened the curtains. She saw Mayank and it was an awesome feeling to her, she got excited seeing him and waved. Mayank told her to open the window as he was still standing on the stairs. Nupur finally opened the window and helped Mayank get inside. While Mayank stepped inside, he slipped on the marble floor and Nupur, who was helping him to get in had held his hand in hers. Therefore, they both fell down on eachother.
Those three to four seconds, being on eachother, feeling eachother breathing were enough for them to be lost in eachother's eye. Finally after getting a little hesitated they stood up helping eachother to stand. When they stood up, both got a little nervous.
Mayank: Tum kaisi ho Nupur, kahin inn logon ne tumhe kuch kiya toh nahi na?
He asked with his concerned eyes.
Nupur: Main theek hoon Mayank. Mom dad abhi bohot gusse mein hain. Woh meri koi baat nahi man'na chahte. Aur meri shaadi uss Sameer se karwa dena chahte hain. Main usse pyar nahi karti main toh..
She stood quite and felt hesitated after saying this, she wanted Mayank to speak about his feeling first.
Mayank: Tum toh? Kissi aur se pyar karti ho?
He asked as naughty expression were being embed on his cute face.
Nupur bowed her head with the little shy feeling which made butterflies fly in her stomach.
Mayank went and locked the door from inside too, so that no one enters.
Nupur: Mayank, yeh tumne kya kiya?
Mayank: Wahi jo har shareef ladka, aik ladki ke kamre mein chhup ke ghusne ke baad karta hai.
He smiled.
Nupur: Tum paghal ho.
Mayank: 2990.
He smiled and giggled a little saying this.
This was the first time when Nupur didn't feel like killing Mayank on his counting, he indeed felt like kissing his cheeks which were getting red.
Mayank came to Nupur and cupped her face, where Nupur got a little shy as she knew what was he about to say.
Mayank: Yaad hai jab ham mille the? Bus mein? Tumse first time mila tha na toh tab aisa nahi laga tha ke tum hi woh ladki hogi jisse meri paghalon jaisi harkaton par ghusaa aye ga. Tum hi woh ladki ho gi jisse sata kar mujhe maza ayega. Tum hi woh ladki hogi jisske chehre ko dekh kar.. mujhe..
Nupur got worried when he stopped.
Nupur: Tumhe?... Bolo na Mayank.
Mayank smiled and bent on his knees, held Nupur's hand, and continued what he was saying,
Mayank: Wohi ladki hogi jiske chehre ko dekh kar mujhe pyaar aane laga. Wohi ladki, jo jab hasti hai toh aisa lagta hai ke sab theek hai, aur jab usse dukh hota hai toh aisa lagta hai ke mera dill ruk gaya.
A tear of happiness dripped from Nupur's happy eyes.
Mayank: Kuch der pehle... jab mujhe ehsaas hua ke mujhe tumse kitna pyar hai... toh mujhse raha nahi gaya. Tumhe iss red dress mein bula liya, aur tumhare liye aik gift bhi liya.
He said taking out the ring he had bought for his love. He opened the box, took out the ring and held Nupur's hand putting the cover aside.
Nupur: Mayank yeh..
Mayank: Sssh, do u love me?
Nupur got a little shy, and then controlling her heartbeats which raced, replied.
Nupur: More than I can love anyone.
She said looking at Mayank's face.
Mayank: This is a gift, which a boy gifts girl when he's in love with her and wants to spend his coming life with her.
He said while making Nupur wear the ring in her fourth finger. The ring was now placed on the vein which went directly to her heart.
He stood up on his feet and hugged her, Nupur was so happy that she had finally found the love of her life, or better to say, she found her life. The moment was priceless to both. They had hugged eachother so tight, as if they were never to leave eachother.
Tears of happiness dripped Nupur's eyes. Whereas for Mayank, this moment was the best one from his past life, and he knew the future life would bring such cute moments more because, he knew he'd spend his coming life with the best companion he'd ever get, Nupur.
Both wanted this moment to never finish, this love, this passion, this feeling was new and they knew it was an Ever-lasting or a Never-ending feeling.
Finally after the beautiful and compassionate hug, they both went and sat on Nupur's bed.
Mayank lied in her lap and Nupur slowly creased Mayank's hair.
Mayank: Nupur.
Nupur: Hmmm..
Mayank: Tumne mujhe mera naam batane se kya manna kiya tha?
Nupur: Kyunke maine mom dad ko bata diya tha ke main aik Mayank naam ke ladke se pyar karti hoon.
Mayank: Arre wah!
He smiled.
Mayank: Poori family ko pata hai, ke unka hone wala damaad kon hai.
He gave a naughty smile.
Nupur playfully hit Mayank's shoulder.
Mayank: Nupur...
He said moving his hand to his own forehead, to hold Nupur's hand. Finally after holding her hand, he said,
Mayank: Nupur.. tumhe ab koi fiker karne ke zaroorat nahi hai..
Nupur: Kyun?
Mayank: Because, ab woh Sameer tumhara kuch nahi bigad paaye ga.. because I love u. Aur tumne woh kahawat nahi sunni?
Nupur was surprised, and she said,
Nupur: Konsi kahawat?
Mayank: Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge. Aur woh dilwala main hoon, jo apni dulhaniya le jaye ga.
He said while sitting and cupping her face, winking at her.
Nupur emerged to hug him. For her, she could do anything believing these words.
Nupur: Ab kya karen ge?
Mayank: Tum bas jo woh kehte hain karti jao.. baaki sab mera kaam hai.
Nupur: Pakka na?
Mayank: Han.
Nupur: I love u.
Mayank sweetly muttered: 2.
Hearing this, Nupur tightened the hug even more. Mayank kissed her forehead and comforted her that he will be beside her, no matter what happens.
They kept on talking, kissing, hugging and showing love to eachother till the morning. It was 7 am. Nobody of them was even feeling sleepy, they kept eachother fresh.
Finally, the sunrise had brought smiles to there face. This was the first sunrise after the heavenly confession between the two hearts, the never-ending promise to love eachother until the last moment of there lives. What could have been more special to both? Nothing.
The precious moments were irreplaceable.
Finally, when clock ticked 8. The room door was knocked, "Nupur, darwaza khol!" It was Nupur's mom who shouted from outside with her anger rising.
Nupur: Abhi kholti hoon, maa!
She said while telling Mayank to leave.
Mayank: Main nahi jaoon ga..
He whispered naughtily.
Nupur: Kyun?
She whispered..
Mayank: Pehle mujhe kuch chahiye!
Nupur: Kya??
Mayank: Aik kiss!
Nupur: Are u mad?
Mayank: Soch lo... pakde jayen ge.
He said with a wink.
Nupur: Ohk.
She quickly kissed his almost red cheeks. Which had those heavenly dimples.
Mayank: Thanks.
He said while leaving, and gave a flying kiss to Nupur while climbing downstairs.
Nupur: Paghal hai.
She muttered and then with her mom's voice, a terror rised in her heart.
She quickly opened the lock and let her mother in.
Nupur's mom entered the room and had already smelled something.
NM: Yahan koi tha kya?
Nupur: Nahi... koi bhi toh nahi, maa.
NM: Mujhe lag raha hai yahan koi tha.
Nupur: Darwaza toh aapne bahar se bandh rakha tha maa, koi ander kaise aa sakta hai.
NM: Khidki se..
Nupur: Kissi ko kya padi hai ke woh mere liye khidki se ander aye, maa.
NM: Tu kuch zyada hi badli hui lag rahi hai.
Nupur: Main? Nahi toh..
She said hiding her new ring between her hand, covering it with the other hand.
NM: Yeh tu haath mein kya chupa rahi hai?
Nupur: K.. kuch bhi toh nahi.
NM: Dikha!
Nupur: Maa, bas woh raat ko thodi si chott lag gayi thi..
NM: Dikha mujhe bhi ke aisa kya lag gaya hai jisse tu chupati ghoom rahi hai.
Nupur: Nahi na maa.
She said hiding her finger even more.
NM: Dika mujhe!
She said in an angry voice.
Meanwhile, a servant came and told NM that Nupur's dad was calling her downstairs. She had to leave urgently.
Nupur took a sigh of relief and quickly took out a medical aid box, from her wardrobe. She quickly wrapped her finger with a bandage so that now no one could see her wearing the ring.
She, then received a SMS from Mayank saying "Alls ok?". Nupur adored his concern, and wrote the reply, "Yes, all is OK. Mom was just about to see my ring, thank God that dad called her downstairs, I was gone otherwise." Mayank was shocked reading this, he messaged her back saying, "What did u do now to hide your ring?". Nupur then replied, "I have bandaged my finger." He thanked God right there because God had saved Nupur from any further problem being created in the family, and then replied "Take care."
Nupur smiled and then, got ready wearing another dress and proceeded, downstairs.
There, she saw a person sitting whom she never wanted to see. It was Sameer, with his mom and dad, sitting there.
Nupur was shocked to see his ugly and evil face again.
As she came downstairs, her mom and dad told her to sit beside Sameer, which she didn't wish to.
Sameer gave her an evil smile.
ND: Mere khayal se hammein Nupur aur Sameer ko akele chod dena chahiye.
Everyone nodded to that, and they all left, everyone went outside in the garden.
Sameer: Kitni door bhago gi mujhse Nupur?
Nupur: Tum agar mujhse shaadi nahi karna chahte the toh itna bada drama kyun kiya?
Sameer: U know what, pehle toh main kabhi kabhi guilty bhi feel karta tha tumhe dhoka dene ke liye.. but now, mere khayal se ab toh tum woh masoom Nupur nahi rahi... Ab tumse shaadi bhi karoonga.. aur tumhari zindagi bhi haram karoon ga.
Nupur: Usse pehle hi main mom dad ko convince kar loongi.
Sameer: Acha? Kab convince karo gi? 3 din mein HAMARI shaadi hai Nupur. Kal tumhare haathon mein MERE naam ki mehendi lage gi.
Nupur: Aisa hone se pehle, yah toh main mar jaoon gi, ya phir yeh shaadi rok doon gi.
Sameer: We'll see Nupur.
Nupur: Dekh lenge... aur han, zara bachke rehna.
Sameer: Kis se? Tumse?
He giggled.
Nupur: Mujhse nahi.. kissi aur se.
Sameer: Koi aur kon?
Nupur: Hai koi...
She smiled and went upstairs. Sameer kept on wondering, for what did she smile? And who was the one he had to fear? The answer was only with Nupur. Soon everyone came inside.
ND: Toh, 3 din baad ki date theek rahe gi?
SD: Ji, ab toh bas Nupur ko apni bahoo banana hai.
SM: Leikin yeh Nupur hai kahan?
She said as she looked here and there for Nupur.
NM: Shayad sharma gayi hai..
