SHAKTI'S BIRTHDAY
[Shakti's POV]
I sat on the end of my couch, curled up with a carton of chocolate chip ice-cream, watching the repeats of my favorite show 'Dil Dosti Dance'. Although today is my birthday, I am not in a very celebrating mood.
My parents were out with my sisters on a trip, leaving me here alone with my hectic schedule. Though they had called, even I had received birthday wishes from my close friends, but something was missing. Oh well, he must have forgotten, I thought taking in another big spoonful of ice-cream as the show was aired off because of commercials. I set the empty container of the coffee table, not realizing yet that I had eaten half the quartz just then. There was a quiet knock on my door. I frowned; I wasn't expecting anybody at this hour. Looking at the clock I wasn't sure if I would answer it, it was almost 12:30. But curiosity getting the best of me, I went to the door and opened it.
"Hello" Kunwar was standing on the other side, a big white box in hand, "Happy birthday, Shakti. I hope I m not interrupting anything; I should have called first but I wanted it to be a surprise."
Kuch kam roshan hai roshani
Kuch kam gili hai barishen
Kuch kam lehrati hai hawa
Kuch kum hai dil mein khwaishen
Thamsa gaya hai ye waqt aise
Tere liye hi thehra ho jaise
"Get in," I opened the door wider. He entered, setting the box down on the kitchen table. From his pocket, he pulled out a card and a small blue box. "Well…happy birthday I hope you like them." I read the card in mind, smiling at how perfectly it fit us.
Sometimes destiny, BRINGS, into OUR lives, SOME
unforgettable people LIKE U.
People whom u've
Known just for a
Little while…
But who make u feel
You've known them
For a LIFETIME…
May YOUR life to be touched, by the SPECIAL joys that,
A BIRTHDAY always brings.
Many Happy Returns of The Day……
Then I opened the smaller box, gasping at the pendant on the chain; it was an S made out of emeralds. "It's…wonderful, Kunwar. Thank you so much...but itna sab kuch karni ki kya zaroorat thi?"
"Tumse pucha meine…and waise I know your birthstone is Opal, not emerald, but this way it matches your personality," I blushed a little. "Plus, u seem to wear green a lot."
Kyu meri saans bhi kuch feeki si hai
Duriyon se hui nazdiki si hai
Jaane kya ye baat hai
Har saba abb raat hai
"Thanku," I hugged him, making him blush too, and sending chilling to our spine. Turning to the other box, I asked, "What in the world is this! You already spent who knows how much on the pendant; why did u get me something else?"
"It's the leastdo for you. Open it." Slowly I lifted the lid and gasps again. "Did u really make this?"
"Who depend karta hai…are u going to eat it?"
"Of course I will, but uske liye u' I could ve to wait until tomorrow, since I just ate half a quart of ice-cream for dinner."
He looked a little disappointed, "Okay"
"But I don't think ek chota sa piece matter karega" I moved around the kitchen getting a knife. When I returned to the table to cut the cake, he had put candles in it.
I pulled out a box from the drawer, "tum sachch mein gaane wale ho?"
"Yes" he lit the candles and turned out the lights. As he began, he rested his hands on my shoulders from behind me.
Phool meheke nahi kuch gumsum say hai
Jaise roothe hue kuch yeh tumse hai
Khushbuien dhal gai
Saath tum abb jo nahi
"Make a wish," he whispered in my ear when he finished singing.
I did so before blowing out all the candles.
"I didn't know tum itna achche gaate ho."
"Ab ek singer ki sister k samne bura gaunga to tum mujhe marogi na." I giggled.
He handed me a piece of cake.
"Kunwar, I told you I'd have a small piece. Meine already itna sugar intake kra liya hai jitna pure month mein karti hoon. U should not do this otherwise u'll have to face the consequences at lifting me in your arms during rehearsals." I mocked and he chuckled.
I scraped the icing off the top of my piece.
"Kunwar?"
"Yeah?"
"I think this is the best birthday cake I've ever had. Tum to bade multi-talented nikle. Hmm!!"
"thank you…just practicing….Agar koi tum jaisi mil gai toh"
"ohhh...Tune 12 pe call kyu nahi kia…I thought u forgot my b'day."
"I thought it'd be more special with just the two of us," he touched my hand.
Kuch kam roshan hai roshani
Kuch kam gili hai barishen
Kuch kam lehrati hai hawa
Kuch kum hai dil mein khwaishen
Thamsa gaya hai ye waqt aise
Tere liye hi thehra ho jaise
"The two of us" I repeated.
"Yes," he took a deep breath. "After working with u 24x7; I've finally realized how much I care about you but this is something more than that. Uhmm… I think special friends."
"Pinch me"
"What for?"
"I must be dreaming"
"You're not"
I pinched my arm; "I guess I m not. I can't believe you said this…you were never good at showing things…but…Kunwar, I'm so touched." I said stretching my arms around his neck giving him a warm and cozy embrace.
"Nobody did, this much for me." My head rested in the crook of his neck and we dozed off.
