Pehla Yeh Pehla
Pyaar Tera Mera Soni
Pehli Yeh Mulaqat Hai
Pehli Yeh Mulaqat Hai
Wo Keh Rahi Hain Baatain
Jaagi Tu Bhi Saari Raat Hai
Jaagi Tu Bhi Saari Raat Hai
"Oh Baby, Please don't deceive me?" She said making a puppy face. "You know how much i take care of you...have i ever give you a chance to complain?" She asked caressing the back and then again continued manofying her love. But when it didn't work out, she gave a great kick to that STUPID PINK SCOOTY of hers. "Crap of a piece" She said with anger moving her hand in her hairs. Her friends just dropped her at the Institute in there jeep as she had to pick up her Scooty which was ever so smoothly running before but now it seems she also become a traitor. The security guard of the Institute where she was teaching, came to her rescue but still the Scooty didn't work. "Madam, i think there is some problem with the engine" He said taking a good view of the scooty. "There is a garage nearby, it could be get fixed there but that can only happen in the morning as it must be closed now" Arohi sigh. "Ok, can you please take care of it tonight?...In the morning, i will come and drop it to the garage" Arohi asked and the watchman agreed and took the scooty to the far corner to park it in a safe place. Angry, frustrated she took out her wallet from her jeans pocket and give a glimpse inside. "Damn, i only had these 20 Rupees and 3 coins left...can't even hire a auto right now" and that left her with no choice than to go to the bus station, that was on 5 minute walk from her institute. It was getting late at night. The roads were almost deserted around the area. She look at her watch and then on the road to wait for her Bus. It was just 5 minutes, she notice the presence of another person, standing atleast 3 feet away from her on the same bus station. She get scared. The firm look and those brown eyes, were mortifying her. She give him a glimpse as he too looked at her and then turn her gaze back on the road. She was tired after the party and the whole last night, she couldn't sleep properly with the anticipation of the result and now, when she just wish to get home as soon as possible, First her Traitor Scooty deceived her and now, the bus who seems to be passing by, every five minutes, was taking too much time. She again sneak a peak at the man beside her and thought, why not to pass the time, I give him ranks on the basis of his looks. She remembered that thing which she, rashi and shefali used to do in there college days whenever they would get bored. "Oh!!!! so lets start" She took out the bubble gum from her pocket and after unwrapping it, she lazily put that into her mouth and throwing the wrapper away, She turn her gaze, showing that she is looking at the road while, she was actually looking at him. "Hairs...Ummm" She started from the above. "I think 7, they are stylish and kind of suit him, but could get better" She thought. Her eyes move down to his ever so deep eyes. "Nice almond shaped one's..." She smiled inwardly. The stranger look at her, feeling her gaze upon himself but right the moment, she averted her gaze making a balloon of her gum. When he looked on the other side, she smiled and again started giving his features, some ranks.
Arjun noticed the girl's gaze at himself or he just thought that. He don't know and right now, he doesn't care at all. He was hell tired to make his mind turn to such things. Being a marketing agent, is never so easy. He now kicked himself at times as why he decided to do his MBA in marketing and not in Banking or Finanace as his friends. There, they are enjoying office positions and here, he is, running on the street all day, looking for the clients, trying to acheieve his quota for the month. Soon to his pleasure, the bus arrived and he get in. The girl on the bus stop also followed him inside. There were just two seats available side by side. As the girl moved to the one with the window seat quickly, arjun took a deep breath and move to take the next one beside her when another man stand up and sit beside her in a swift motion. "Hey gorgeous!!" The crappy looking man started as arjun went to take that seat, that man was occupying before but stop in the mid-way. "You are alone...haan" He said moving his hand to her hairs trying to remove them from her face. Arjun looked at the girl, who seems irritated. His jaw tightened as he move towards the man and tapped his shoulder. "Kaun hai bay?" The man turned to arjun to found his angry eyes looking dagger at him. "tera baap hoon main...Ye larki mere saath hai" He said as moving his hand up in a punch position. The man looked at from an angry arjun to a terrified arohi but thought its better to get up as many others were looking at him angrily and moved back to his original position. Arjun took the seat beside her, maintaining a little distance. "Don't worry, everything is OK" Arohi looked at her and felt secure seeing those eyes once again. She was trying to compose herself when she heard him again. "Its not safe, especially for girls to be out at such a night. Take care of yourself" his voice was genuine. Arohi gave him a weak smile and slowly said. "My Scooty broke down and i just spent my whole money giving treat to my friends, so didn't have much money to go bye an auto" Arohi explained her situation. Arjun slightly nodded and the journey continues, till arohi's has to leave at her stop. She get up slowly, holding her bag and look down at him with a soft smile. "Thank you" she said and left. A minute later, arjun too followed her down and crossed the road to get a bus, going back on the same road he came from, as his bus stop already left two stops behind. But he didn't feel good getting off on his stop, leaving the scared girl alone, thinking may be that crazy man again will disturb her.
Next day, Arohi arrived her institution a little early to give away her scooty to the garage and was back to give her classes. Everything was going on smoothly and the incident of the last night was almost forgotten except the Rescuer. The amazingly caring one. The handsome one. If now she have to give him rank on his behavior, she will give ten on ten to him. Mostly when guys are seeking that kind of chance he had, while being all alone on the bus stop and than later in the bus too, sitting close by her. He didn't dare make a move towards her. Gentleman. Thats all he could say to him now.
Her classes for routine ended but she was informed that one of the teachers were on leave so she have to give two of her lectures for the day. She got a half an hour break and was again on her classes. On the other hand, Arjun was having a lucky day. For the target, he have to bring atleast six new customers in this month and he got four in this same day. He already had one in the list and that left him with one more. It just eight days passed by with this new quota and he was more happy and more relax now than in ages. He could leave early for the day and thats what he did, only to find the girl from the last night, standing there with her bag, carefully staying on her shoulder, munching her gum like last night. She was looking all sweet in the blue and white check shirt with denims and was talking on the phone.
jab jor koi
tu mere pass aa gayi
main tere pass aa gaya
"Dad, ya i know you asked me a millionth time to buy a small car for myself, but i am happy with my scooty anyways" She argued. "Listen Arohi, you wanna make your self-identity, we respect and support your decision but you can't expect us to not support our own daughter..."Her father tone was a bit harsh but caring "I have transferred some of the money to your account, use it and buy a nice car for yourself...And anyways, i can't believe that stupid scrap piece anymore" She smiled at her father's comment and hold back a chuckle. "Dad, you know i love you right?" She said with a smile evident from her voice. "Ya, me too..."His tone get softer but again he get back in his grim mood and said "But that doesn't allow you to not buy a car" Defeating, not to linger that topic anymore, she sighed and said "Ok, Dad...will talk to you later...Pay my regards and love to Mom...i don't even mind you kiss her from my side" She said with naughtiness. "Me either" Hearing her father, she giggled and saying bye she cut the call. That's when she realized that two brown eyes, looking at her intently. She smiled seeing her rescuer who give a small smile in reply. "Hi" She said. "Hi" he replied with a pleasant dimpled smile. That's when she noticed how beautiful that smile is and hoe breath-taking that can prove. Holding herself, she extended her hand. "Arohi". He look at her and then at her extended hand and said. "Arjun" Oh my God!!! doesn't his name so go with his persona. She thought and took her hand back. "So again, on your own...all alone?" He asked with a smirk. "My scooty is in garage and they said it something serious with it...so for now, i think its better to go through a bus" She replied. "And by the way, thank you for last night" Her words were genuine and he can feel them. "And whatever happened last night, you still are willing to go by a bus and not by an auto?" He asked admiring her braveness but left shocked with her reply. "I thought, may be someone will be there to save me again" Arohi too noticed his reaction and quickly added to avoid the embarrassment. "I mean, there are so many people in the bus, so how could anyone would dare to do that...its scary to go alone in an auto on your own-self with nothing to protect you than the driver" Arjun smiled at his lame excuse. Though there were many people in the bus last night but the creep still made the move towards her. But his heart felt satisfied, that she trusted him. Its years later, someone actually seems dependent on him. Soon the bus arrive and they leave for there destination. As last night, he again first let her get out from the bus and later when he saw her, getting disappeared into the hostel, he got down and crossed the road to go back to his stop.
pyaasi hai meri saansein
uspe yeh barsaat hai
pehlaaa hai pehla
tera mera pyaar
Getting into his apartment he shared with two other boys, he just removed his bag and throw himself on the bed. He keep playing with his fingers while his mind was in deep thoughts of the beautiful stranger he met two days back, name Arohi. Its so long that he dated a girl. He was in final year of his MBA when he had an affair with a girl. And now after, one and a half years, he is thinking, just mare thinking about this girl. A smile formed on his face as he remembered how she was teasing her father while tucking back the hair strand behind her ear. The naughtiness was dripping from her face, the way she twitched her lips was so captivating and admirable.He do remember stealing glances at her while sitting beside her. The weather was suddenly so cold and in just about 5 minutes, it started to rain then. He remembered how she just moved out her hand to touch and play with rain from the metal rods of the window with a childlike smile on her face. It was a pure dreamy and angelic look. He suddenly sit with a realization. "Is it a signal?? I just met her yesterday and today i got the four customers while even getting one is hard now-a-days with the recession and above that, why i am so thinking about her look and imagining her here and there? WHY?" he asked himself still being deep in her thoughts. "IS SHE MY LUCKY CHARM?? MY LUCKY GIRL?" And a bright smile formed on his lips too that surly reached his eyes. "My Lucky Girl...My Girl" he softly mumble as a wave of satisfaction run through his body and he felt himself at peace. "Arohi" saying her name, as softly as he could, he lazy moved his back as it hit the bed and closed his eyes with a grin on his face.
