Chapter 6
[Introducing two new characters but they are just working in Shekhwat Group of Companies so won't be there for long' Rohit (the bad guy) always wants to let down Swayam and Sid (the good guy) Swayam's assistant and has always been treated like a family member]
Same evening in Mumbai'.
Rohit and Sid were in Rishi's cabin discussing work'
Rishi: Who is responsible for this mess?
Rohit: Sir, Swayam sir is not in town'.
Rishi: How can he be so irresponsible? Doesn't he know how important this is for us?
Rohit: But sir, Swayam sir said that the file was completed and no point was left out!
Rishi: I don't know anything; I want him here by lunch time tomorrow! I don't know how you do it!
Rohit: Yes sir!
Next morning in Goa'.
The entire gang was in the restraunt having a nice chat and laugh over breakfast'.
Nil: Kal kitna maza aaya na?!
Vicky: Yeah dude! Itne acche dance performances, I just went wow!
Gang: True!
All of them were relaxed as they had nothing much to do and just had to attend the closing ceremony and after party' But they also felt bad that they had to leave tomorrow and get back to their busy schedule'.
Swayam: Guys, why don't we stay in tomorrow also' we can leave day-after-tomorrow' as it is tomorrow is Friday toh we can do full on masti tomorrow and leave on Saturday! What say?
Rey: Good idea dude! Pata nahi ek baar Mumbai wapas chale gaye toh phirse holiday kab milege!
Swayam: Exactly!! So are we on with this plan?
Gang (excited): Yeah!!!!
All were really happy now'. Swayam excused himself
Swayam: Guys, main humare stay ke arrangements karke aata hu'
He gestured Sharon to join him and got up to leave'. Sharon too excused herself but in return was teased by the gang'. She caught up with Swayam
Sharon: Hey, kya hua? Mujhe kyun bulaya? And yeh ek aur din rehne ka sudden plan? What's cooking mister?
Swayam (putting his hand over Sharon's shoulder): Woh kya hai na Miss, mujhe apni fianc ke saath aur thoda holiday time spend karna hai'. Toh is there a problem with that?
He came closer to Sharon and started nuzzling his face in her hair... Sharon giggled and gave him a light push...
Sharon (giggling): Swayam, no badmaashi!
Swayam (pulling her closer): Aare main badmaashi kahan kar raha hoon? Main toh bas romance kar raha hoon!!!
Sharon (bushing): Swayam please!!! Public place hai!! Sab dekh rahe hai!
Swayam: Ohho! Someone's getting naughty! Don't worry we can continue in the room if you like (winked at her)
Sharon (hitting him in his chest): You are so shameless!
Swayam: Aare romance karna shamelessness kaise hua?
Sharon (blushing harder): Ok now chalo! Booking ka kaam karna hai!!
Swayam got the booking extended and they both walked up to the pool hand-in-hand'.. Busy talking and both completely forgot that their friends were sitting at the opposite end of the resort'. Just then Swayam's phone started ringing and disturbing them'.
Swayam (removing the phone from his pocket) Ab kaun disturb kar raha hai?? (Just then he saw the caller id' it was Rohit) Office se phone????
Sharon: Haan toh uthaona!
Swayam (picking up the phone): Good morning Rohit, What's the matter?
Rohit: Good morning, Sir! Actually Rishi sir ne aapko jald se jald office wapas bulaya hai!
Swayam: Kyun? Kya hua? I had informed him that I'm here for some work!
Rohit: Yes sir, he knows that but it's really important! Aapke uss naye project ko leke kuch kaam hai, iss liye sir wants you here by today afternoon'
Swayam: Ok I shall be there!
Swayam hung up and called up Sid and told him to book a ticket on the next flight from Goa'. Sharon stood there completely confused'. And Swayam was irritated that he had to leave Sharon there and go but at the same time tensed as to what had gone wrong when he had looked into everything personally'
Sharon (confused): Kya hua Swayam? Is everything ok?
Swayam (tensed): Nahi woh papa ne abhi mujhe Mumbai bulaya hai, it's something regarding my new project!
Sharon: Haan toh you should leave as uncle has called you!
Swayam: But what about you? And the ceremony tonight?
Sharon: Baba, relax! I'll be fine, sab friend toh idhar hi hai na! And don't worry I will manage everything! You should leave soon!
Swayam (sad): But mujhe tumhare saath time spend karna tha! And I had so many plans!
Sharon: God, Swayam! Tum ab chote bacche ki tarah baat kar rahe ho! Main kahin bhaagi nahi jaa rahi! We can always spend time once I'm back' So stop behaving like a kid and let's go' tumhari packing bhi karni hai!
Swayam was sad but he knew this was important' They both walked up to the gang and informed them about Swayam leaving'. Vicky offered to join him but Swayam denied and headed to his room to pack up his stuff and leave' Rey called for a cab to leave Swayam to the airport'. All bid him a good bye and left the two love birds alone'.
Swayam (pouting): 2 din main tumhare bina akele kya karunga?
Sharon: Baby, don't worry I'll be there soon' Ab tum jaldi niklo tumhare flight ka time ho raha hai!
Swayam pulled her into a bone crush hug and kissed her head'. She responded equally as she knew how bad she was feeling'. They both broke apart'.
Swayam (looking straight into her eyes): I love you! And I'll miss you' (kissing her forehead)
Sharon: I love you too! I'll miss you too (She gave a sweet little peck on his cheek) Bye, now leave!
Swayam (smiling): Bye!
The cab drove off but Sharon was standing right there till the cab was out of her site'. As Sharon turned to go she saw Simi standing right there'.
Simi: So Swayam left haan?!
Sharon (sad): Yeah!
Simi: Hey Shar' Cheer up! You only said it was important right! Otherwise we all know Swayam would have not left...
Sharon: Yes Simi, and don't worry I'm fine!
They both went back to their group who were now getting ready to go shopping'.. Sharon too joined them but she wasn't that excited as she was sad that Swayam had to leave'.. But somewhere she had convinced herself that it was for work, so she should enjoy the time with her friends'. She was trying her level best but all in vain'.
In Mumbai'.
Sid was there to receive Swayam at the airport as Swayam had decided to rush to the office as soon as he landed'. On the way Sid told him about the discussion Rishi had the previous evening and he also briefed him with the Minutes of the meeting'. Soon they were in the office and Swayam entered Rishi's cabin'.
In Goa'..
Everyone was back to the resort as it was time for them to get ready for the party'. The D3 gang were the Chief Guest so they ought to look the best'. All the guys were dressed in semi-formals and the girls in cocktail dresses'. Sharon was as usual the Diva amongst all'. She looked the best but there was something missing'. The glint in her eyes'. She was smiling and laughing with everyone but it seemed to be artificial'. The reason was but obvious'. She stuck around with the girls in the ceremony and also the party'. Rey was continuously keeping a watch on her to make it a point that she was ok'.
In Swayam's house...
Shweta was busy cooking as it was late evening'. Suddenly she heard the doorbell ringing and Kaka opening the door'. She came to the living room and saw a fuming Swayam walking into his room and *BANG* he shut the door with hell lot of anger'. Shweta went up to his room and knocked at his door'.
Shweta: Swayam beta! Kya hua? Sab theek toh hai na? (No response) Swayam!
Just then the doorbell went on again and this time she opened it'. There she saw a tensed Sid entering'. And she got him to sit offering him some water'
Sid: Good evening ma'am!
Shweta: Good evening beta! Waise tumhe kuch pata hai Swayam ko kya hua? Aur usse toh Goa main hona chahiye na? Phir woh yahan aur woh bhi itne ghusse main?
Sid: Haan woh Rishi sir ne Swayam sir ko wapas bulaliya kuch kaam ke silsile main! Woh Swayam sir ke naye project ke meeting main kuch problems hogaye par Swayam sir ki iss main koi galti nai hai, uss Rohit ne kuch kiya jis wajah se Rishi sir na Swayam sir ko blame kiya!
Shweta: Please mujhe puri baat batao'
Sid: Ji ma'am woh aaj'.
FLASHBACK
Swayam and Sid enter Rishi's cabin' Rohit was already present there'.
Swayam: Good Afternoon Pap' I mean Good afternoon Sir!
Rishi (sarcastically): What's so good about the afternoon? In fact we should be thankful to you, that you could remove some time for us from your busy schedule!
Swayam just looked at his father completely confused'.
Rishi: Kya hua? Aapko samjhe nahi aaya?... Ok let me do the honours'. Firstly I don't understand why did I get such an irresponsible person to work in my office'. Tum yahan kaam karte hi kyun ho jab tumhe office ke kisi kaam main dhyaan nahi dena hai! Pehle toh tum sirf aadha din office main rehte ho aur uss time main jo thoda bahut kaam diya jaata hai tum woh bhi nahi kar paate! Mujhe toh pehle se hi pata tha ke tum iss office main kaam karne ke bilkul kabil nahi ho'. Woh toh tumhari mom ne mujhse kahan ke tumhe ek chance diya jaaye iss liye tumhe jhel raha hoon'. And believe me you've always proved me right!
Swayam was just standing there looking at his father with an expressionless face'.
Ab mujhe mere ek aur decision pe shak ho raha hai'. Kahin maine Sharon ke saath tumhari shaadi fix karke galti toh nahi kar di? (This was enough to rage the anger in Swayam but he was controlling himself) Jo insaan office ki choti responsibilities nahi sambhal sakta woh ek shaadi ki responsibility kya sambhalega? Mujhe toh Sharon beti ke liye bura lagta hai'. Usse dekho, kitni ambitious and focused hai'. Usse jo chhahiye usne karke dikhaya'. Aur tum'. Huh! Sharam aati hai ke tum mere bete ho!
(Swayam's fist had tightened more and his knuckles had turned white) Ab yahan khade khade mera muh kya dekh rahe ho' You should be thankful to Rohit jisne yeh project humare liye bacha liye, nai toh tumhare bharose toh yeh company kabki band ho gayi hoti'. Now please leave and make yourself atleast a bit useful'
Without sparing a second glance Swayam left the office and
