Okay guys i know you all may find it detached with emotions, but in this particular FF, i have tried to convey the intensity through qoutations and kept the text simple and realistic, umm .. something new and i haven't tried it, but lets see how it works out 😳
2. **
A star shone at the hour of our meeting ' J.R.R Tolken
**
It was her. Yes. Nupur.
Taking a huge sigh of relief, he smiled genuinely and Nupur smiled back very slowly. Her hands were tightly clasped at the trolley handle and she was trying to make the shiver in her body less evident.
Mayank walked with quick steps to her and in a matter of 5 to 6 steps, they both were standing at a distance of less than one inch. They both looked at each other blankly and with hesitation equal on both sides, Mayank thought of being brave and taking the first step.
"Hi ..",
He said in a fairly audible voice and Nupur blinked her eyes and smiled slowly. Mayank motioned to grab the trolley and getting the hint, she stepped back, removing her hands from the trolley. Mayank grabbed the trolley and looked at her, "chalen?"
"Hmm", barely whispering, Nupur nodded and they both started walking slowly.
They both walked towards the exit door, with mixed feelings of hesitation and awkwardness. Mayank moved towards the car, and started shifting the luggage in the boot. Nupur stood beside quietly and looked around at the beautiful city of London. It was windy and getting busy in adjusting her scarf and hair, she didn't notice that Mayank was done with shifting.
"chalen Nupur", he said again and nodding yet again, Mayank led her towards the front door and opening it for her, Nupur sat down and within a few minutes, they were on the streets of London, on their way to home.
There was again silence, and Mayank stole a glance at Nupur who was playing with her fingers and looking outside.
"how was the journey?", Mayank spoke after clearing throat.
"it was good", she said slowly.
"dar tu nai laga plane main"?, he asked cheerfully and Nupur smiled and shook her head, "nahi, .. thankfully nahi"
"great", he smiled and knowing the talk would end yet again, he quickly added, "main ghar pe phone karwa don, dad was really strict k jaise hi tum aao I should call",
He parked the car by the road side and took out his mobile phone and expertly dialing the number, he was now waiting.
Driving rules in London were really strict , she thought.
"hey dad!,", Mayank respectfully said and Nupur smiled, she was looking forward to talk to her father in law.
"Jee jee thek se phonch gayi", he said and handed Nupur the phone.
"hello bauji", Nupur said in a chirpy tone, which caught Mayank's attention, feeling gripped for a moment, he smiled and ignited the engine.
"jee jee bilkul thek hn", she said with smile and respect.
"jee?", Nupur fumbled and stole a glance at Mayank, whose eyes were fixed on the road and biting her lip on the question that whether Mayank was there for her or not, made her blush, "jee bauji .. yahin they '", she tried to say in a whisper but Mayank's smile told her that her effort was futile.
The next few answers from Nupur were only in monosyllables of "jee" and "haan jee" and Mayank's grin was increasing further, he so well knew the type of questions she was bombarded by her father.
"jee bauji, main dobara phone karn gi, maa aur sab ko bata dijiye ga k main thek se phinch gayi", she said and placed the phone on the rest,
"ho gayi baat?, kar li dad ne meri jasosi", he sighed and Nupur giggled, "jasosi nahi kar rahe they, bus poch rahe they k main thek hn k nai"
Smiling, he shook his head and taking a slow turn, he stopped the car in front of the third house in the row.
"a gaya ghar", he said a bit nervously which was transferred to Nupur.
"main gate kholta hon, tum ander hi betho", he smiled softly and got down, first he opened the small wooden door with the key and then going inside, he threw open the main gate for the car,.
The first glimpse which Nupur got into her house was a few yards long car parking area, which had a lawn on the left side. She smiled and meanwhile Mayank was back in the car, "welcome home Nupur", he looked at her with a smile and smiling back, Nupur looked ahead, as Mayank drove the car into their house.
