Part 2
"So Taani..." he finally said, breaking his silence, "Whose that Guy?"
Taani lets out a nervous laugh.
Taani: What are you talking about, Bhai? (stutters) I...I don't know...
Swayam: Oh really? Never mind! I'll enlighten you.
He takes a dramatic pause and Taani looks away wondering whether Swayam saw Rey outside the house or not.
Swayam: I'm talking about the guy jiski wajeh se tum roz late ho rahi ho.
Taani breathes a sigh of relief and looks up at Swayam.
Taani: Bhai, aap bhi na! There's no guy! Ab mujhe andar aane dijiye plz...Its really cold outside.
Swayam forgets his anger for a moment and lets Taani come inside, concerned.
Swayam: Are you okay?
Taani smiles at him and pinches his cheeks, lovingly.
Taani: Now thats more like the Bhai i know. Aap par yeh angry young man look bilkul suit nahi hota!
Swayam's earlier angriness returns.
Swayam: You think i like being like this. You think i like scolding you. I've been so worried, Taani. Ek toh tum itni late aa rahi ho upar se you are not answering your phone. Why weren't you answering your phone?
Taani: Woh...umm,Bhai...Main movie dekhne gayi thi na toh silent par daal diya tha phone. Sorry!
Swayam just looks at her, still not convinced.
Swayam: Tum movie dekhne gayi thi?
Taani: Haan.
Swayam: Kiske saath? I hope tum akele nahi gayi thi itni raat ko.
Taani: (laughs) Ofcourse not! Umm...woh Neha thi saath mein.
Swayam: Oh okay!
They stand there quietly for a while and Taani thinks of an excuse to get away, "Bhai main jaun ab? I'm really tired"
Swayam: (nods) Hmm but don't repeat this again. Dubara agar late hui toh i'll ground you for one week.
Taani: (shocked) What?
Swayam: Yeah i will. And agar late ho bhi rahi ho toh call and inform me. Understand?
Taani: Yes Bhai!
Swayam: Go now. Goodnight!
Taani: (smiles) Goodnight!
She turns around to go happily when Swayam says, "One more thing..."
Taani panics and turns back towards Swayam miserably.
Swayam: Where did that watch come from? Pehle toh kabhi nahi dekhi maine tumhare paas.
Taani: Umm...woh nayi hai. Recently khareedi maine.
Swayam raises his eyebrows at her and asks, "Khareedi?"
Taani nods and Swayam takes her hand in his to look at the watch more carefully.
Swayam: As far as i know, this must be really expensive...Almost above 50,000 aur abhi toh uncle,aunty ne tumhari iss month ki pocket money bhi nahi bheji, so how did you buy it?
Taani pulls her hand away from his and looks away. She tries to think of an excuse and remembers what Rey had told her.
Taani: Bhai this is not expensive at all. Yeh toh duplicate maal hai, maine station par se liya 500 mein.
Swayam looks at her suspiciously.
Taani: Aapko bhi agar koi watch chahiye toh bata dena, i'll get it for you.
Swayam: No thanks! (reluctantly) And sorry main tumse itne sawaal puch raha hoon (he ruffles her hair) Go to sleep now.
Taani nods and finally goes to her room, breathing a sigh of relief.
She removes her phone from the bag and falls on her bed,exhausted from the interrogation. Just as she was about to message Rey her phone beeped indicating a message from him. She smiled and opened it:
"How did it go?" it said.
She typed in a reply and send it to Rey.
Rey who was also lying on his bed, staring at his phone and waiting for a message perked up when his phone beeped. He opened the message and read, "Mat pucho"
He frowned and called Taani, she answered the call immediately.
Rey: Was it that bad?
Taani: Yeah! But i handled it. (sighs) Rey why can't we tell Bhai? I hate lying to him.
Rey: Taani we have discussed this before and mera answer ab bhi same hai. We can't tell him.
Taani: But why?
Rey: (frustrated) Bola na nahi bata sakte matlab nahi bata sakte.
Taani: Rey ya toh aap abhi mujhe reason bataiye ya main abhi Bhai ko sab bata dungi.
Rey: (outraged) You're blackmailing me?
Taani: Yes i am! Main aapki girlfriend hoon aur yeh mera right hai.
Rey runs a hand through his hair in frustration and is about disconnect when he hears Taani saying, "Phone kaatne ki sochna bhi mat Rey"
Rey curses and takes a deep breath before putting the phone back to his ear.
Rey: Fine! You want to know the reason, right? Toh suno...its because i'm guilty!
Taani: Guilty?
"Yeah Guilty! You're Swayam's sister Taani and I'm his bestfriend" he says, miserably.
"So...?" Taani asks, still not getting it.
Rey: So, he'll kill me when he knows I'm dating his sister.
Taani: Aisa kuch nahi hoga Rey! He'll be happy for us.
Rey: Taani trust me, he'll be mad! You don't know guys!
Taani: But i know Bhai! He'll be happy to know that we are together! You are his bestfriend and...
Rey cuts her off.
Rey: Wohi toh problem hai, I'm his bestfriend and me going after his sister is bad! Really bad! Almost evil! Thats basic boy protocol: you never go after ur friend's GF or sister.
Taani bursts out laughing.
Taani: Rey aap pagal ho gaye ho! (laughing)
Rey: (outraged) Tumhe yeh sab mazak lagta hai?
Taani: (still laughing) No Rey! Woh main bas...
Rey: Go to hell Taani! I don't want to talk to you!
Taani: No rey! I'm sorry...listen to me.
But Rey already disconnects the call. She tries calling him again but he switches off his phone.
Taani sighs and walks over to her cupboard. She opens it and looks at the Rey corner "Aapko naraz kar diya maine but ab aapka gussa thanda karna seekh chuki hoon main...See you in the college tomorrow, Rey"
She goes to back to her bed and sleeps.
