PART 27 B "WOW!!!! Sooo beautiful"
Kashish exclaimed in joy as she watched the gorgeous, calm, white sand beach in front of her. They reached Hawaii late Friday after noon and after a 2 hr drive frm the airport they settled in at Priya's beach house. Sujal was suffering from the jet lag nd went to get some sleep but Kashish on the other hand felt completely fresh as she inhaled the fresh air standing in the garden, facing the beach. She started dancing and signing unaware of her surroundings and spend the whole afternoon in the beach. This change in behaviour was very rare from her. She always preferred to snuggle up in her own world and letting her emotions closed up inside her. But this place had attracted her so much, that she couldn't quite control herself. She fell in love with the place at the first place and felt like she belonged here. She didn't even unpack which was so not like her.
"Gorgeous, isn't it?"
Kashish looked back to see Sujal at her door. He watched, as she looked at him embarrassing as he had caught her off guard when she was dancing in her own world.
"I thought u were sleeping" she lowered her head trying to hide her blushed face.
"and miss this LIVE performance." He moved closed trying to tease.
"Jeez. I felt like my eardrums were gonna explode with that singing. That was horrible man." he laughed while making a cry face and continued to tease her.
But she on the other hand was about to cry on his comment. Nobody in her life ever told her that her voice and dancing skills were horrible. She had inherited it from her mother. She started to learn it as a kid from her mother. She had won many competitions while she was in school. In fact a lot of people advised her to take it up as a career. But she stopped it after her mother died.
"really am I that bad" she said trying to fight back the tears from the corner of her eyes.
He saw that she felt really bad abt his comment. He was only JOKING. He didn't think she would take it personally.
"oh Kashish. I was only kidding. Really u sing really good. Its that I never heard u sing. I swear I was only joking. Plz don't take it seriously."
He cursed himself for making her sad.
"Its ok. Sujal. I should've take it silly. I don't mind." She smiled assuring him it was ok.
"well good. Oh the reason I came was that priya just called. They r stuck in Florida. Their flight is cancelled due to some problem. They will be coming only on Sunday morning."
"oh that's bad"
"Ya. Anywayz I'm gonna go get something to eat for us. Why don't u get some sleep?"
"sure" she replied.
"nd honey as much as I love to see it, don't go dancing around all night. Ok.
He smiled as he left leaving a blushing Kashish behind.
Late night
She walked towards the door surprised as whoz knocking at her door at this time. She opened it.
'What r u doing here? Her curiosity grew wider as she saw sujal standing in front of her. His hair was a mess. That was the first thing she noticed. From the look of his face she guessed that he hadn't slept either. She wondered why?
"I….uhhh… Hi. Were u sleeping?" he said in a low tone after hesitating a bit.
"Why u came here to check? Plus that's what normal people like me do at night" she lied to him still curious to know why he came to meet her.
"U r lying." He said without even thinking. He bit his tongue realising what he just said.
"WHAT" she asked furiously.
"No no I didn't mean to call u a liar. What I meant was that I could see the lights in ur room were on. So I assumed u weren't sleeping"
"Maybe I have a habit of sleeping with the lights on" she said trying to defend her stand and wanted to laugh at sujal's face. He looked like a lamb caught in lion's hand.
"Ok ok u didn't wake me up. I was just reading a book." She watched as the tension eased awy from his face and became normal.
"Oh ok. Well that's a relief. Uhmmm listen If ur not sleepy can I come in 4 a while? I need to talk u abt something. I've been thinking abt it a while." he said as he tried to gauge her reaction and hoping that she would talk to him.
"U know…..it's…its kinda late. We could talk in the morning." She said hesitating trying her best not to offend him. As mush as she loved the idea of having his company, she didn't think it was the right thing to do.
"Well…. ok then" he said disappointedly. He really wanted to talk to her. He turned around to go bk to his room. She saw his fallen face and felt bad. He was her close friend and she should trust him. From his face it was clear that he was worried abt something and really needed to talk to someone. As a friend it was her duty to listen to him.
"What's the catch?"
She said innocently with a smile to sujal who was going back to his room. He turned around and saw her smiling cutely at him. He walked back to her and smiled back appreciatively.
"Anything u want." He said.
"Well u know what I may take u up on that offer."
He entered her room as she held the door wide open. The room was a bit cold despite the ac was off and because of the fact that the door to the garden outside was open. The garden provided a direct entry to the beach thru the fence and he could hear the roar of the waves close by.
"Why is the door open? Its not safe u know?" he asked with worry.
She smiled at his concern. "Oh I just wanted some fresh air while read. So I was sitting in the garden."
"But still…." He stopped abruptly.
"I'm fine Sujal. I can take care of myself." She now irritated with his concern and wondering why was he concerned about her safety all of a sudden.
"Ok what eva u say?
"Why don't we take a walk on the beach? It's a full moon and air is refreshing too." He advised while walking ahead of her to the beach. She didn't have any other option but to follow him. She felt he had something important to tell her. That's why he looked so serious, which was rare. May be abt Soniya. Her face fell at that thought. Why was said every time she thought abt sujal and some other girl. She didn't know. However, she felt good suddenly. May be she can ask him what really happened btw them. She felt a tingling sensation when her feet touched the white soft sand. They both settled in a quite spot near the shore watching the waves.
*********** "Sujal" she called his name again now getting irritating slightly. They been sitting on the beach for abt half an hour and he still hasn't said anything. She too didn't say anything thinking that he will speak up. But now she was loosing her patience.
"Kya tumhe kabhi kissi se pyaar hua hain?"
He asked out-of-the-blue while his gaze was fixed on the roaring waves. She looked at him with a shocking expression as if he had read her mind. She felt like sweating and her heart beat racing fast.
'Wait a minute!! Why was she sweating? Well the answer is obvious. It's a no. she could just easily tell him that.' She fell into a deep thought.
"U didn't answer my question." He asked again calmly now looking at her perplexed face.
"Hmmmm……ohhh….. Nahi….nahi toh….."
She finally managed to answer after stammering a bit. They fell back into silence again when he looked away from her to stare at that ocean again. She didn't say anything either as she still was recovering from his unusual, shocking question.
"Lekin mujhe lagta hain ki mujhe kissi se pyaar ho gaya hain"
A sweet smile spread on his face as he revealed the news to her.
Chalte Chalte yunhi ruk jaata hoon main,

Tumpe marte hain kyon, hum nahin jaante.
Aisa karte hain kyon, hum nahin jaante.
Band galiyon se chup chup ke, hum guzarne lage.
Saari duniya se rah rah kar, hum to darne lage.

Teri baaton mein ye, ek shararat si hai.
Mere honton pe ye, ek shikayat si hai.
Teri aankhon ko aankhon se, choomne hum lage.
Tujhko baahon mein le lekar, jhoomne hum lage.
Hai ye kya karne lage.
Kya yahi pyar hai, kya yahi pyar hai.
Haan yahi pyar hai, haan yahi pyar hai.
Chalte Chalte yunhi ruk jaata hoon main,
