he rushed out to the ranch...
& quickly counted the horses...
they were all there....
iska matlab madam walk kar rahi hai...
& she could've taken any path that goes out ...
great!!..how the hell will i find her now!??
due to the cold wind that blew ...
the bulb in the shed swung into an
oscillatory motion...
throwing its light in all directions....
luckily raj's gaze fell on the snow...
tracks!!!....
to madam is raaste gayi hai....
thank goodness!!
the snow was already feet deep in places...
and it fell fast & furious against his face..
showing absolutely no indication of
stopping in the near future....
he cursed the weather..&
began walking in dat direction....
perfectly aware dat he may not be
along the right path anymore...
the ranch covered an area that stretched miles...
& it was fairly easy to get lost..
specially in such a disastrous weather....
for all he knew...
she could be buried under snow..
freezing to death right now!!
he closed his eyes....
hoping that his fears were all a big farce...
& then with renewed vigour...
he continued on the undaunting task......
.................................................
the heavy snow proved relentless...
insistent..as it fell with an icy determination on
her numbed cheeks..
she may never have experienced a blizzard before....
but she knew that currently she was in the midst of one....!
she was shivering...cold..wet...
as her coat proved to be useless...
it didn't suffice for such harshness....
hell!!...
she wasn't even sure where she was...
wandering out without any defence.....
am i still in the ranch..??
kahin maine woh area cross to nahi kar liya???
for all i know..i could be walking in lost circles...
she blamed herself....
her legs already felt tired.....
heavy ..as she struggled to stay upright...
& quickly counted the horses...

she blamed herself....
her legs already felt tired.....
heavy ..as she struggled to stay upright...
she felt she would collapse &
die out in the cold any second...
hadh hai!!..main marr jaaoongi..
aur kisi ko pata bhi nahi chalega!!
i feel like howling..
crying...par i'm sure it's hopeless...
i'll never be able to elicit a response...
it suddenly struck her..
that the whole setting was a bit too eerie!!
c'mon nia!!..think hard..
i've virtually walked straight...
never really turned ..
so circles waali baat doesn't qualify...
she trembled as the wind howled....
but her brain was working ...fast...
when i came here....as a kid..
we guys used to play hide n seek...
and about 2 miles from the mansion...
somewhere out there..was a cabin....
exactly!!..now if i could just get there....
her heart lifted...
provided it still exists....!!
her heart fell back to square one!!
as she began her tiresome journey again...
there was absolutely no time
to admire the beautiful scenery
of the snow-covered mountains...
for at night..
they looked like large trolls & beasts to her!!
dammit!!..get a grip on yourself!
she knew it was futile turning back....
for she'd never reach home on her own...
cabin...cabin..cabin...
with every step..
she lurched towards her goal!!
after sometime..
she knew she had to sit tight for awhile..
lest she fell down....
besides..her leg pained like anything...
the docs words echoed in her mind...
"don't go running round naina..
your leg still needs rest!"
finding a huge boulder...
she tumbled on to it!!..
rubbing herself...trying to get some warmth back in her.....
.........................................
"does she even know where she is??!"
he was fuming with anger at her foolishness...
"gussa hona ek baat hai..
depressed feel karna ek baat hai..
but who the hell asked her to...
oh man!!"
a thought struck him....
"cabin!!...that's the only place she knows about....
i hope tumhe yaad hai naina...
& more importantly...i hope tum wahi ho!!"
die out in the cold any second...
hadh hai!!..main marr jaaoongi..

he continued walking..
although his pace increased...
his goal clear....
...........................
there she was....sitting right in front of him...!!!
he was glad that he'd had the sense to use the light
from his cell as a torch...guiding him a bit...
& he'd seen a shape on the boulder...
perfectly confident..that it had to be her....
he switched off his cell...
stepped a bit closer..
confirmed it was naina...
(although from a distance)
& now...it's time to cheer you up!!!
he knew he couldn't be angry...
she was already very disturbed....
but nothing..absolutely nothing..
would prevent him from doing some masti...
covering his mouth with a handkerchief...
he decided...to scare her!!
..............................
she snapped out of her thoughts...
which primarily revolved around
'you-know-who'..
wen she heard wat sounded like a cough....
alert..horrified...
she looked around....
her heart racing....
"k..kaun hai??"
she was ashamed that she was feeling scared...
but the fact was ...
dat she really was...TERRIFIED!!
she heard a voice ...
and it seemed to echo ...
from somewhere..far-far away.....
Ik ladki bheegi bhaagi si....
Soti raaton mein jaagi si..
Mili ek ajnabi se..
Koyi aage na peechhe...
Tum hi kaho ye koyi baat hai....
she didn't recognize the voice....
someone was here...koi ajnabi...
& i swear...if he tries to come
close to me...i'll ..i'll...
wat will i do???
will i be able to single-handedly..
overcome his strength?????
she was nervous...
again..the song..
Dil hi dil mein chali jaati hain...
Bighdi bighdi chali aati hain...
Doondh laati huyi balkha ti huyi...
Saawan ki suni raaton mein..
Daagmag daagmag lehki lehki..
Bhooli badh ki behki behki...
Machli machli ghar se nikhli...
Paghli si kaali raaton mein...
although his pace increased...
his goal clear....

Machli machli ghar se nikhli...
Paghli si kaali raaton mein...
raj snickered..
this was fun!!...
he'd been hiding behind a tree..& singing ..
carefree...
stopping...he turned to peep...
& was astounded...
"shit!!..yeh kahaan gaayab ho gayi??
ab kaise dhoondoonga?...
you're such a jerk raj!!"
"that you absolutely are!!!"
he jumped..taken by surprise...
embarassed to have been caught...
nevertheless he was grinning....
"that was outright disgusting raj!!
& i for one..didn't find it funny!"
naina was outrageously angry...
"a..sorry..
by the way..how did u guess it was me??"
"doesn't require an Einstein really!!
machli-machli ghar se nikli...
IT HAD TO BE SOMEONE AS FILMY AS YOU!!"
she scorned....
"damn u!!"
she started walkin away....
hey bhagwaan!!..phir bhaav khayegi...
chal raj..ho ja shuru...!!!
he followed her..
overtook her..&
finally managed to bring her to a halt...
ruffling her hair completely..
Tan bheega hai sar geela hai...
Us kaa koyi paech bhi dheela hai...
Tan ti jhukti chalti rukti...
Nikli andheri raaton mein...
Mili ik ajnabi se..
Koyi aage na peechhe..
Tum hi kaho ye koyi baat hai..
Ek ladki bheegi bhaagi si..
"r..raj..mujhe..."
she held her head..
she felt too tired to care
about anything anymore....
feeling utterly helpless..she just wanted to lie there ...
& sleep until it was all over....
the crisp white snow suddenly looked
like an inviting bed
of floating clouds..warm & soft...
like his arms....& she fell into them....
"naina!!..naina!!"
he shook her hard...
"oh God....yeh itni delicate kyon hai??"
he picked her up like a leaf..
& struggled to reach the cabin...
perfectly knowing the way from here.....
thank god for dat!!!

..................................
finally..here they were...
it was wide enough...
a cozy place....
it had old-fashioned
oil lamps hanging around ....
& two small beds facing each other....
he placed her on one of them...
gently....and rubbed his hands...
trying to remember where he'd
placed the matches
the last time he'd been here...
groping about in the dark....
he found what he was lookin for...
the matchbox on a mantlepiece...
& lighted the lamps....
there was certainly no luxury
to be found here..
but he knew the fireplace would
soon warm her....
he bent down..
turned a knob..and threw some matchsticks
on the logs...
after a while a healthy fire crackled in the cabin..
sitting right next to her....
& pulled her up ...holding her waist...&
deposited her on the couch in front of the fire....
smiling at her innocence...
her gentleness...
who the hell am i kidding???!!
she's interpol!!!!
yet...for him..
she'd always be the loving..warm...
person she'd been as a child...
his first crush...
his infatuation...
his friend...
his best friend...
his love....
he was rubbing her hands...
massaging her feet..
once getting rid of the boots she'd worn...
a warmth developed in her body..
& she opened her eyes....slowly....
a smile came to her lips wen
she saw him sitting right there..
making a lovely posture..
a smile dat instantly vanished...
when memories of wat had happened
enveloped her mind...
rising...she spoke to him..
"i..i'm..so sorry..
never meant..to cause..
you any trouble....pata hi nahi chala...
i must have...fainted"
she began to stand....
"sit down!!"
he pulled her back...
"yes you fainted...& you need rest naina!!"
he was almost scolding her...
"par..."
she looked around...
for the first time noticing
where she was....
almost delighted to see the place
where she'd so often come to in her childhood...
the furniture stood clean and serviceable...
rugs on the floor gave the room
a homely touch...
"kuch nahi badla...."
she whispered...almost in a trance....
"haan naina...
kuch bhi nahi badla..."
he was looking at her....
& she realised that he was
talkin about their relationship.....
her hair fell down just below her shoulder..
in silky waves....
naina was well aware of how
she must appear to him right now...
a beautiful face dominated by
thickly lashed eyes...
her slender figure shown to perfection through
her dark green cashmere sweater
& tightly fitting jeans...
she looked away...
and he sighed.....
"nia..listen to me yaar...
i understand your position perfectly...
main accept karta hoon ki
for a while i ..i lost my trust..
par woh meri galti thi...
tumhaari nahi!
think about it...
my reaction was perfectly normal..
pyaar karta hoon tumse...
i'm bound to be jealous..possessive..
maybe that's how men are structured!!
you know i love you...don't you?"
"itna sab hone ke baad bhi?"
she gulped back the lump dat
rose in her throat..
"kya sab??!!....c'mon naina...
you have a career..a duty...jo tumne
poore dil se nibhaai hai....
kya galat hai is mein??
no limits were crossed.....
in fact..come to think of it...
i'm really proud of you...!!"
he had clasped her shoulders....
a smile began lighting her face.....
"sach?"
"sach....after all..
kis kis ki girlfriend
interpol operations head karti hai!!"
he grinned....
she wound her arms around his neck...
"thank you...."
although her reaction was instantaneous...
they both found a sudden
sexual tension develop
around them.....
"naina" he whispered....
"hmmm"
"take off your clothes"
"what!!??"
she found her jaw drop open..
itna direct!!...she blushed....
he grinned....
"take them off and wrap yourself in
a blanket before you catch pneumonia!"
their eyes met yet again...and he winked...
positive that she
hadn't missed the double meaning
behind his words....
he stepped closer to her...
& so did she...
a full length mirror
hung in front of them...
she looked into it...
& saw his hands moving to her waist....
feeling the tickling
sensation his touch produced...
there was something exceedingly
erotic about watching him
caressing her...kissing the nape of her neck..
as the sweater began sliding down...
slowly....
he winked at her in the reflection...
the night...he thought...had lots in store!!!
it was wide enough...
a cozy place....
