Recap: Robbie is looking to overtake Saberwal Enterprises. Shivani bumps into robbie and wants to play match maker btw robbie and kasturi. kasturi sneeks into Robbie's office suite to see the Statue Ondheen for herself.. but Robbie comes back unexpected and Kasturi hides in the bathroom...but leaves the towels in plain sight....
Part 8.....
Robbie thinks to himself i dont recognize that smell.. were the cleaning ladies here? they must have been and forgot to put the towels in the bathroom...robbie picks them up and starts walking towards the bathroom door..he turns the handle and the door opens, robbie filcks the light switch on and walks into the spacious and luxurious bathroom (which is a jack and jill concept connecting his living quarters to his office), their was black granite countertops and a huge mirror with a gold frame around it.. the pedastal sink was of a moss green, he opens the cupboard to put the extra towels there...kasturi sees his profile and ducks further into the tub, praying the God's be on her side...Robbie stands there and stares at himself in the mirror thinking what will kasturi think of me now, for have i changed much...Kasturi will hate my dress sense... too stuffy she would say..and probably laugh at the fact that his hair is cut short...back then it was longer..she use to tease me that i'm in competition with her...God why dont we have the power to turn back time.. to go back and right wrongs especially that horrendous night that changed the path of their lives irrevocably..robbie sighs washes his face as if to wash away the bad memories and turns the lights out and walks out of the bathroom closing the door behind him...though he has a weird feeling that he just cant put his finger on it. something isnt right..just then anita walks in saying: all ready to doo some serious shopping...
robbie:yikes heaven have mercy on my wallet...
for the second time that day robbie closed the lights and as he walked out he remembered what was bothering him he never closed the bathroom door the last time he left...robbie went back in and looked around and then went back into the bathroom turned the lights on and pulled the shower curtain back..😲
Nothing, robbie thinking to himself, i must be loosing it, all this thanks to you kasturi, your messing with my head... 😕 anita runs in after him saying: robbie kya huwa?😕
robbie very agitated for he knows something is amiss says:Kuch nahin anita, chaaleh...
and finally robbie and anita depart...closing all doors and lights...
a very scared kasturi who had already exited through the door that connected robbie's executive bathroom to his bedroom suite and out the Penthouse enterance...on the otherside. kasturi telling herself off for the stupidest thing she has ever done....😡 just then her cell rings and kasturi jumps out of her skin...and grabs her cell and a little to loudly says kya haiii???
Puru says: ummm kasturi kya huwa tum ithni ghabrayi vhi kyun hoi?
kasturi: dad kuch nahin sorry, sub teekh hain nah dad?
Puru: tum hari mama se baath karaha tha aur woh kehrahi thi ke tum behoosh huwi thi? aub kassi hoi beta?
Kasturi: daaadd i'm fine really, i luv you for your concern.. bus thori se kamzoori thi, aub i'm perfectly find... back to normal..
Puru aacha teek hain beta.. jaaldi ghar aajahnah...tum koi dheekh kai hi tasaalee hogai...i luv you kasturi...
kasturi: and I luv you dad..main rakh thi hooon aub..bye...
kasturi hangs up and thinks to herself, OMG baal baal bach gayii😡 thank god i got out of the tub when i did and left through his penthouse enterance...yeah Robbie Raichand is one formidable opponent...and he seems to be in luv with himself, kaasah ghoor raha tha aapne aap koi🤢 must think the world revolves around him....must have a god complex..disgusted with robbie she calls shivani..
shivani getting irritated by the minute: Hello??
kasturi:hiya shiviii sorry yaar thora dheer hogai hain but i'm leaving now, i'm just getting into my car kasturi luved her trust toyota... from the moment her parents gave it to her when she turned 18... it was getting old and Ajay was constantly telling her to change it for a sporty model...but for kasturi old was gold... as kasturi was backing out a black X5 sped by she had to break hard to miss it... disgusted with the driver she pursuded the Black SUV... kasturi thinking to herself kya hora hain aaj kaal these people with money seem to think they buy the road when they buy their big vehicles as well😡 Kasturi.. followed at a distance and eventually lost it as the car ran a yellow light..kasturi thinking chaalo it came out of Paradise Point, baadh main dheekloongi😡 and headed to Connaught Place..as she parked kasturi noticed the same Black X5 parked in the parkade.. she got out and wanted to deflate one of the tires, lekin chodiya..and went to go meet shivani...
shivani was waving to her kasturi ran up and said sorry again.. chaalai, yup said shivani who had spotted robbie going in with a girl just 10 minutes ago.. hoping to bump into robbie again but this time with kasturi at her side...
kasturi: shiv kya hogay hain shivani kis koi dhoond rahi hoi?
shivani: kissi koi nahin.. just then they bump into ronauk and Ajay..
ronauk: hiya, what a wonderful surprise.
Ajay: kasturi tum teekh hoi nah, mama batahrai thi
kasturi interrupts him and says haan bhiyu i'm fine..thanks😃
Ronauk: tum log bhi costume khareednah aayai hoi?
shivani: haan..
Ajay and Ronauk look at each other for they already knew this.. cause ajay had overheard kasturi telling her mom what her plans were before leaving the house...
Ronauk kept staring at shivani....ajay gave him a slight nudge in the rib cage.. as to say stop staring like an idiot..
Ronauk: mm shivani who do you want to go as?
Shivani: i was thinking me and kas were gonna do the mideval damsels you know with the grand gowns and with taffta silk and small bows around the dress... lekin dhektha hain what we find , kyun ki ek hi toi dhukhaan hain that specializes in masqurade costumes...chaale?
everyone walks towards the store, as they enter shivani looks around for robbie he is no where to be seen.. very disappointed shivani and kas go looking for their gowns, the guys take off in the mens section...they want to be one of the famous knights of the round table...a lady walks up to them and asks them if they need any help? and she then leads them to the area where they can find their costumes.. and that is where they bump into robbie..
Ronauk: excuse me sorry..
robbie: no i'm sorry seems to be a bad habit i have developed..your the second person i've bumped into today..
Ronauk:you seem familiar? aap koi kahin dheekha hain...hmmm yes your..
robbie finishes his sentence for him robbie raichand, hi and you guys are?
Ronauk says: I'm ronauak Shinghania and this is my best friend and buisness rival Ajay Saberwal..
robbie's eyes cant believe it... Kasturi's elder brother... duniya waqui main kithni chooti hoti hain. all the men greet each other, and Ajay says i guess we'll see you at the Ball..
robbie: i look forward to it...see ya guys tomorrow.
robbie head to the dressing area to try on his knight outfit. he tries the first stall and a younge lady's voice says excuse me, this stall is taken...robbie says his apology and tires the next stall. the song Pheli nazaar main is playing in the background and kasturi was humming it... Robbie also sorta hums its.. and the younge lady's voice says excuse me are you mocking me by copying me?
robbie : says no sorry i just really luv this song..
kasturi says me too...okay... sorry to bite at you...
robbie no problem..Robbie thinks that voice...OMG is that kasturi in the stall next to me? robbie feel very nervous. he doesnt want to meet kasturi like this.. for what reaction she will have he doesnt know.. perhaps he was more afraid of how he would handle her reaction to him more then her. No i'm not ready to face her yet... i'm not mentally ready to meet her..he quickly tries on the outfit .
shivani walk up to kasturi's stall and says kas kaasai lagrah hain?
kasturi well its a bit tight on the waist, but
shivani, well thats how the dames would wear it in the old days...stupid...
kasturi: who you calling stupid, stupid??😡
Robbie cant help but laugh but covers it with a cough at that exchange of words..
kasturi says shivani did you try your outfit on already? yes and i have my mask as well... i look hawwwttttt, and she makes a sizzling sound Ronak is bound to notice me ...kasturi starts laughing. Robbie heart skips a beat. her laugh hasnt changed. she laughs openly and without hesitations. robbie koi yeah kushi hain kya at least kasturi sounds happy...shivani then says, you know kasturi aaj main robbie Raichand se takhrai thi?
kasturi aachai? whats he like? kasturi getting goose bumps from hearing the name... she thinks for abhi toi main usski office or kamarah se bhaag ke aayi hoon...
Shivani: he's sooo good looking kasssiii,☺️ but not in your conventional type of way.. but one things forsure tum dheekoi gi usskoi to tumhair hosh hi urjahyengah...
Robbie thinking to himself shivani you have nooo idea...😆
kasturi thinking, shivaniii you have noo idea how close i was to doing just that 1 hr ago.Instead kasturi says: lagtha hain ronauk ke chooti hojaygi...
shivaniii, thinking kasturi kasturi kab tum aapne baareh main beh soonchoi gi?😡
shivani says i was actually thinking of youuu and how you both would look perfect together... and you dont have a date for this ball...
robbie cant help but smile huge...😃 and says (to himself)yeah we were perfect shivanii.
kasturi starts laughing and says, aacha. yeah match making choroh and help me with this zipper.. so i can get this dress off...and we then can be off... shivani enters kasturi's changing room and robbie slips out of his and takes off.. not looking back...
Robbie runs into anita and says done
anita says;kab se intezaar karah hi thi...
robbie sorry yaar, chalo lets go pay for this stuff. mujhe bohut buhook lagi hain..
robbie and anita depart robbie realizing that yeh shivani probably wanted to accidently bump into him again with kasturi this time...chaalak larki.. iss se hosiyaar hona hogah...
shivani and kasturi leave with ajay and ronauk.. and their bags for tomorrow nite....shivani very down that her match making never happened...
the night of the ball.. everyone is getting ready.....
Shivani and Ronauk went to the Saberwal house to get changed with their friends and they would all leave togther from there...kasturi and shivani are in kas's room listening to K.K.'s song Zara Si.. and getting ready... kasturi's gown is baby pink taffta silk with small bows, her bodice is sleevless and the work is with fine gold thread woven into the pink silk...she is wearing her mother's pink pearl necklace.. shivani's dress was in baby blue and pretty much the same she wore her mothers grey pearls neclace...both girls put their hair into a french twist.put on their masks with golden squences and feathers on each side of the mask with a few stray strands hanging loose.. they were beauty personified...both girls had stilleto heels on to increase their height
they girls came out and walked down the winding staircase to meet up with the ronuak and ajay who looked dashing in thier knight suits and their black shiny boots up to their knees and thier black pants tucked in. and their swords hanging by thier sides...as ajay is ready to leave with shivani, he complains about some pain in his stomack, and ronauk askes him kya hua ajay tum teekh toi hoi?
ajay says, nahin yaar bohut daard horah hain, i might have to cancel yaar, sorry lekin shivani i dont think i can go to the ball in this pain...
shivani no problem ajay, tum araam karoi...do you want us to call the doctor?
ajay says nahin i think if i take a pill for my stomach i'll be okay, lekin hamari date, ka kya
ronuak says: fiquar mauth karoi ajay main hoon nah😃 i'll take both these beautiful ladies.. i'll be the luckiest guy there..tonight..
ajay apologizes again and as ronauka and the ladies get ready to leave, ronuak turns and winks at ajay and ajay winks back...😉
The Masquarade ball: was a huge white mansion with collums on either side of the huge enterance infact as Ronauks car drove up to the enterance the girls could see right through the doors to the back of which was wall to wall windows.. there were light roping all over the place and huge ice statues the with rolling lush green grass beyound the windows...
Shivani, OMG kasturi this is sooo beautiful, i cant wait to get inside,
the car infront of them is taking forever to move its a black X5 the vallet parking guy is talking to the owner obviously... as the owner steps out kasturi can only see the back of his shiny black hair but his jacket was full of embroidry... and he's tall....and the lady that got out with him is quite beautiful in a stunning burgandy gown...with some very light work on the bodice but the rest of the gown was just plain burgandy silk...but had two bows to hold up folds of silk on the two sides of the gown.. kasturi and shivani give each other a look that says stuck up!!! and they both giggle in the back..Ronauks says whats so funny?
just then the their doors are open by the valet guy and everyone gets out ronauk says to both the girls as he offers his hand to them : are you ready ladies....
both kasturi and shivani excitedly say YESSSSSS... chaloooo...
