PART 3

"I hope the mess has been sorted beta... That's good to know... Yes the meeting is over... We have finalised almost everything, I will brief you up when you come home... You can meet Arjun too, he is joining us for dinner... Ok... I will see you then... Bye beta."

Arjun turned to look at Sudhir as he finished his phone call. The past hour was a breeze as per Arjuns getting acquainted to the Ahluwalias. Amrit aunty had welcomed him like a long-lost son, who had come home after years. Young Sanchit had been completely taken over by Arjuns personality. Being in the initial years of college, he had talked to Arjun about everything... including his college life to his journey towards being a successful businessman. His jolly nature immediately made Arjun feel at ease.

"Hamari ek cousin aayi thi Simla se, for further studies, kuch saal pehle. (One of our cousins had come from Shimla, a couple of years ago.) We had become good friends and plus I had someone to talk to. Arohi Di toh hamesha bahar rehti thi, padhai ke liye. Aaj bhi shes here lekin we hardly meet, thanks to her work schedule. So im kind of dying to talk to someone you know. Ab toh Gauri bhi University chali gayi hai so... (Arohi Di used to be out of the house all the time, for her studies. Today, even though she is here, we hardly meet, thanks to her work schedule. So i am kind of dying to talk to someone you know. Now even Gauri has gone to University so...)"

Arjun smiled at his good natured banter. In 10 minutes, Sanchit had told him his entire life history.

"Sanchit, puttar kitna bore karega aur usse. Jaa Arjun ko apna ghar dikha ke laa... (Sanchit, how much will you bore him son. Go around with Arjun and show him the house...)" Amrit sent her younger son to do something useful.

"Haan Arjun... Jab pichli baar tum aaye they tab kaafi chotte they... Go Sanchit, show him around. Waise bhi Arohi nikal chuki hai lekin usse aate aate aur aadha ghanta lag jaayega. (Yes Arjun... the last time you were here, you were too small. Go sanchit, show him around. Anyway Arohi has left already and she will take atleast half an hour to reach.)" Sudhir supported his wife as he realised that he had some urgent emails to send. He did not want to leave Arjun to his own devices, but looked like Sanchit and Arjun had immediately bonded. Now he just hoped that Arohi would come home in a good mood.

Later... Somewhere upstairs...

"... aur ye Arohi Di ka karma hai! Mein aapko andar le jaata lekin Di has strict rules about other people entering her room... especially me... aur mujhe firse ganja nahi hona! (... and this is Arohi Di's room! I would have showed it to you from inside but Di has strict rules regarding other people entering her room... especially me... and i donot want to risk being bald again!)"

Arjuns eyebrows jumped in surprise as he heard the last comment. Sanchit recognised the silent question and spoke up to clarify. "Voh... Ek baar... Di ne gusse mein aake, apne dono haathon se mere baal jorse kheeche they! Usse mein ganja toh nahi hua tha, lekin I swear I could see a couple of my beautiful hair hanging from her closed fist when she withdrew her claws!!! (Actually... this one time... Di got angry and pulled my hair with both her hands! I didnot go bald because of that, but i swear i could see a couple of my beautiful hair hanging from her closed fist when she withdrew her claws!!!)" Sanchit finished with pinching the skin on his neck between his thumb and forefinger, indicating the genuineness of his swear.

Arjun chuckled at his antics. Shaking his head, he moved ahead through the hallway. They crossed an alcove whose wall was filled with dozens of photographs. But Arjuns head was turned towards Sanchit, listening to his animated talk as they headed to his room.

Downstairs... and outside...

"Thanks Dhonds!" Arohi smiled at the man in the driving seat and turned around to open the door.

"It feels so nice Arohi... to hear you call me Dhonds. We are friends yaa... aur ye baat puri office ko pata hai. (We are friends yaa... and the entire office knows this.) So even if you call me D or Mr D, it really doesn't make a difference."

Arohi sighed and turned back to her friend cum secretary. "Dhondu... not again... please!"

"I know I know! Professionalism..." Dhondu lifted the fingers of his hands and quoted in the air.

Arohi smiled. No matter what her mood, her friend knew how to make it better. "Thanks for the lift Dhonds... Meri gaadi... (My car...)"

"Don't worry. I will have it picked up tomorrow and repaired. I can pick you up tomorrow on my way to office."

"No need. I'll catch a ride with dad. You don't bother. I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Ok... Jao tumhara Arjun Singhania tumhara intezaar karraha hai... (Go, your Arjun singhania is waiting for you...)"

"Mera??? Jitni baar tumne usska naam liya hai he is definitely YOUR Arjun Singhania..." (Mine? The number of times that you've chanted his name, hes definitely YOUR Arjun Singhania) Arohi finished giggling. "Waise D, Im sorry meri vajah se you could not meet him. Want to come in and say hi?" (By the way D, i am sorry, because of me you could not meet him. Want to come in and say hi?)

"Naaah... I don't want to share him with you all! Mein kal office mein usse hi kahunga... akele mein! (I will say a hi to him in office tomorrow... in privacy!)" Dhondu winked and Arohi burst out laughing. He stared at her wide smile and grinned.

"Ok now I seriously need to go... Thanks to you, now when I meet him, I will get a mental image of him and you together!" Arohi had another burst of laughter and she opened the door to get out. Waving a quick goodbye, she trotted inside the gate, almost dancing as her body still vibrated with laughter.

Danish stared at the retreating figure of his best friend walking away happily. He had finally taken Arohis mind off work, put her in a good mood and sent her off to meet a charming handsome young man. His work was done.

Putting the car in gear, he drove away,

Somewhere upstairs again...

"So which room did you like the best in the house???" Sanchit asked Arjun as they exited his room.

"Definitely not yours! Sorry, no offence dude... but I cannot stand a messy room!"

"That's ok. Even my dad cant stand a messy room! That's why I keep it messed up... so that he doesn't enter!" Sanchit grinned and winked. Arjun chuckled at his impromptu witty answers. "So my room is out... then which room?"

"Best room toh maine ab tak dekhi nahi hai... (Best room i've not seen yet...)"

Sanchit looked at Arjun confused.

"Library! I love to read. So my most favourite room in any house is the library. Voh tumne ab tak dikhayi nahi mujhe. (You've not shown it to me yet.)"

"Ohh... That is next to Di's room." Sanchit smiled instantly realising what Arjun meant and turning around, started leading him. "Seriously? Library??? I mean thoda boring nahi hai... (Isnt reading a bit boring...?)" Sanchit leaned towards Arjun and questioned.

Arjun raised his eyebrows at him.

"I mean Di also loves the library. But tum kaafi cool insaan lagte ho... so... (But you look like a cool guy... so...)"

"Sanchit... books are a wise persons best friends. In ones lifetime you cannot meet every person or go to everyplace on earth. But books are a medium which makes it possible. It gives you access to any information or any place, right from where you are."

"Really???? I thought that medium was internet!!!"

Arjun and Sanchit crossed the alcove again and this time Arjuns eyes fell on the countless photographs displayed there. After that he did not hear even a single word that Sanchit had uttered.

There were photographs of his father, his family with the Ahluwalias, his photo with a baby and a small girl, his dad with Sudhir uncle, distant relatives... holiday snaps, studio pics and many more. But the one photograph that caught his eyes was of two young women, smiling away at the camera... a picture which was taken, not so long ago.

The older one had a hand around the younger girls shoulders in a protective manner. His eyes widened as he registered the two smiling faces. Suddenly a lot of things came back rushing to him... things that he had ignored earlier but now made sense to him.

Hamari ek cousin aayi thi Simla se, for further studies... (A cousin had come from Shimla for further studies...)

Arohi Di... Di...

Ab toh Gauri bhi University chali gayi hai... (Now Gauri has gone to university...)

Gauri...

Arjuns teeth gritted and his hands fisted! His eyes became red in fury. His breath came out in short snorts, getting hotter by the second, just like the temperature of his brain.

Get away from her... you sick perverted b****d...

Ohh... you don't know him? He's a cradle snatcher! He targets young, helpless women and takes advantage of them...

Arjuns eyes opened wide as he heard the front door open and shut, and then his ears were subjected to the irritating loud voice, which he had come to hate.

Arohi Ahluwalia... of all the people!!! It cant be...

His eyes darted to the wall and he saw countless snaps of HER displayed. Her sweet smile to the camera sickened him to the core.

"Arohi Di... shes here! Chalo Arjun mein tumhe Di se milvata hu... (Come Arjun, i will introduce you to Di...)"

Sanchits voice brought Arjun back to the present. Catching his expressions, he gave a small smile. "Haaan... chalte hain. Sanchit, where is the washroom? (Yes... we will go. Sanchit, where is the washroom?)"

"Washroom? voh peeche raha... chalo I will show you. (Its in that direction... come i will show you.)"

"Nai! Its ok mein dhoond lunga. (Its ok, i will manage) Why don't you go ahead and welcome your Di? I'll visit the washroom and be down in 2 minutes." Arjun told him as genuinely as possible and checked his face for any suspicions.

Sanchit frowned for a second and smiled the next. "Ok... jaldi aana! I cant wait for you both to meet."

"Yeah... me too!" Arjun said clenching his teeth as he saw Sanchit rush towards the stairs to go down.

Making sure noone was watching him, Arjun took a few steps. Looking around one more time, he took a deep breath and turned the knob to the door of the room, that had a note stuck on it, which read,

'Sanchit, if you love your hair... STAY OUT!!!'

and Gauri's character has also been introduced - why do i have a feeling that its going to be a negative character again - i guess its the name - i wish she gets drowned in the university itself - seriously

sanchit has given arjun a clear idea about aru's anger through that one incident (hair pulling act - hope arjuns gets the point and acts accordingly if he doesnt want to turn bald😆)

finally, the photos have revealed the identity of arohi ahluwalia - haha this is going to be one fun ride indeed

More like sanchit, even i cant wait anymore for them to meeet

wait wait why did our hero enter aru's room - iam sure he is about to show aru who the real arjun singania is??????

very eager to read the next part

great going sheetal -

thx for the treat - i enjoyed it dear
