Continuing the Abhi-Purab being musicians AU on page 9

JD and Nadz, I tried continuing it but it became so longer like an OS, so I converted it to a smiley filled drabble. Sorry for the craziness 🥱

Abhi:

Pragya: 😆

Purab:

Pragya: He is searching for Tanu. You should help him.

Purab: Searching? You didn't meet her yet? 😲 OK, I will go look for her.

Abhi: 😡 Why the hell you didn't tell me that you weren't Tanu?

Pragya: Remember, you started talking to me even without introducing yourself? You didn't let me talk.

Abhi:

Pragya: 😎

Abhi: But I called you Tanu? You should have stopped me then. It's your fault.

Pragya: How could that be my fault? It's your fault.

Abhi - Pragya:

Abhigya stop fighting when Abhi gets a call

Purab: I found my sister but she is too drunk. I am taking her home. You go home. We will talk about this later.

Abhi: OK, Fine. *cuts call*

Pragya: What happened?

Abhi: Tanu is too drunk so Purab is taking her home. Thanks to you.

Pragya: Me? What did I do? You are talking as if I made her drink.

Abhi: Because of you, I wasted my time. If I had not met you,

Pragya: You would have stopped from drinking by your irritating lecture.

Abhi: Irritating?

Pragya: Yeah. You think you could really get someone out of addiction by your talks? I am going to drink for the very first time. Your talks didn't impress even me.

Abhi: First time?

Bulbul: *comes to Pragya* Shall we go home?

Pragya: Yeah *leaves*

After a month, Abhi sees Pragya at a New Year Party,

Abhi: Still your first time? 😉

Pragya: *turns around* Huh? Hi 😃

Abhi: Don't worry. I won't lecture you this time. Have fun. *tries to leave*

Pragya: Hey, don't leave. I actually came here to due to a friend's compulsion. If you don't mind, can you just be here with me for some time, if you don't mind? My friend is talking with her other friends and I feel so uncomfortable here.

Abhi: Do you want me to order something for you?

Pragya: Nothing

Abhi orders a Champagne

Pragya:

Abhi gives it to her
Pragya:

Abhi:

After some time,

Abhi and Pragya -

After some more time,

Abhi and Pragya -

Pragya -

Abhi -

Its 12 am -

Nivu!!!! 😆 That was such a fun read!

Other version is a little longer to be called an AU and I have this silly desire to write their dialogues in Hindi but how can I write in Hindi if I don't know Hindi. My mind is not accepting my excuse and persuades me to do some magic and write it in Hindi 😆

Other version - But the plot is different from that of the previous one. It's only after writing half way I realized that I was writing something similar to one of my favourite scenes from the Tamil movie Mayakkam Enna.

Long AU warning 😆

Abhi was shocked to know that he was talking to the wrong girl for the past 20 minutes. Before he could reply, she tells Purab that his friend was looking for Tanu and he should help him. Purab takes Abhi with him and Abhi turns back to frown at Pragya. Pragya starts laughing as she sees him frowning at her. Bulbul comes to the place and asks who was she laughing at. Pragya says that it's not important and as Bulbul asks whether they can leave, Pragya nods.

Pragya is on her way to home riding her Scooterette thinking about how busy her day at college was. She would have been at home now if some student hadn't tried to break in the Principal's room and steal exam question papers. The student couldn't be found but it was confirmed that someone had stolen the next day's exam question papers. The exam was postponed. It was the last exam. Why did they have to postpone it? Already everyone had went to Mamaji's house for Puneet's wedding. She thought she could join them soon but... *bang*

Pragya screamed as she saw someone came in front of her vehicle. He just showed his hand at her like stop signal without even looking at her. "You? Are you OK?", exclaimed Pragya as she recognized it was Abhi. He didn't reply but tried to continue walking but had a clumsy walk. She parked her vehicle and walked towards him worrying whether she had hit him. Just when she went near him, she sensed a strange smell. It was alcohol.

"Advice is only for others, right?", she asked him.

"What?", he asked her making her sure that he could talk.

"Why do you drink so much if you can't even barely walk?"

"Excuse me, I didn't drink"

"Haan. You didn't drink. You have drowned yourself in alcohol."

"Hey, I am telling you. I didn't drink"

"I don't care. I thought I hit you but it seems you have other problems. Bye", she tried leaving but he sat on the pavement not being able to stand. She stopped the auto and somehow got him inside. When the auto driver asked her the destination, she asked him but both of them couldn't understand his murmurs. She asked him to give his valet and looked for his driving license. She read his address to the auto driver and gave Abhi his purse.

"Don't drink like this next time or keep your friend by your side", she told him and that was it to infuriate him.

"How many times should I tell you that I didn't drink?", he asked.

"A lie cannot become a truth if it's said again and again", she said. He got down from the auto and started arguing with her. He was about to fall on the ground losing balance and she caught him. The auto driver went away.

"Look at you. You scared the auto driver with your drunken antics. Now how will you get home?"

She thought of calling a taxi but she didn't have enough money for that. She had no choice except to leave him there.

"Pragya, he is drunk. He is not a sick person. If he needs to get home, he should have known to not drink much. It's getting darker. Leave him and go home.", the voice at the back of her logical brain said.

Abhi: Yes, I would have been drunk if a stupid hadn't collided with me and made my glass pour all over me. But I am not drunk now. Do you understand? *sits on the pavement*

Pragya: *feels that he is being emotional*

Pragya: *tries to get him up* *feels his body heat* *realises something* You have fever?

Abhi: *sighs in relief* Thank God, you understood at least now.

Pragya: If someone drinks too much, they will get fever? *curious*

Abhi: *frowns*

Pragya: OK Sorry. We should go to hospital first.

Abhi: I can manage.

Pragya: You can not even cross this street without support. Let me find some way.

Abhi: Autos are rare in this route. There's no other way than to walk.

Pragya: So you know that? Yet you chased the auto driver away?

Abhi: I didn't scare him. It was you.

Pragya: What did I do?

Abhi: Why don't give rest to your mouth? I am tired of listening to your bakbak

Pragya: Yeah, I need this. I came to help you and you ask me to shut up.

Abhi I didn't mean that way.

Pragya: Then what did you mean? That..

Abhi: *shouts* Will you please stop? Stop eating my brain.

Pragya: *taken aback*

Abhi: I am sorry. I showed my frustration over you.

Pragya: *sits besides him* Frustration?

Abhi: He called my song shit.

Pragya: Who?

Abhi: The music director for whom I work.

Pragya: *softens* You are a musician?

Abhi: Keyboard player

Pragya: Why did he say so?

Abhi: Because it was.

Pragya: You are disappointed because you couldn't make a good song?

Abhi: *has tears* It was my best till date but still it sounded like a waste piece of music for him.

Pragya: *decides to cheer him* May be you should try me.

Abhi: *looks on*

Pragya: People have different tastes in Music. The songs which my sister loves, I hate them to the core and the songs which I love, she finds them boring. Just because one person doesn't like a song, doesn't make it a worthless song.

Abhi: Do you know who you are talking about? He is one of the top most music director. You think he doesn't know to judge?

Pragya: So what. What if he is one of the top music directors? What if he is the President of World Bank? He is not god, right? You may have got something new and he might have found it hard to comprehend.

Abhi: You really want to hear my song?

Pragya: You call me bakbak but you are the one who is making me talk the same thing again and again.

Abhi: *smiles* *smile fades in a second* I don't have my keyboard with me now.

Pragya: You have a voice na? Sing.
Abhi: I haven't written the lyrics yet.
Pragya: Tell me are you really a musician or are you lying to me? Should I tell a musician that he can sing without lyrics?
Abhi: *bites his lips* *smiles and starts humming*
Pragya: *starts clapping when he finishes his song*
Abhi: *smiles widely*
Pragya: This song is superb but why didn't sing me the song that your director rejected?
Abhi: *surprised* This is that song.

Pragya: What? *pauses

Abhi: You really like this song

Pragya: Like? I LOVE ITTT!!!

Abhi: Thanks but you need not lie to console me

Pragya: Lie? I hate lying. Your song is really cool, Mr.Lecturer. You should try playing it some other people in the industry too!

Abhi: Even Purab said the same

Pragya: So, somebody has already told you this but you didn't consider doing it instead of crying.

Abhi: I am not crying.

Pragya: Oh God, don't start again. What are you going to say this time? That somebody poured water in your eyes?

Abhi: You are good!

Pragya: You too!

Abhi: Finally something positive about me came from your mouth

Pragya: Well, it depends on how you talk.

Abhi: So what do you do?

Pragya: I am studying M.A. Philosophy

Abhi: Philosophy, I should have guessed it alright. That's why you are here trying to help a stranger

Pragya: You don't know the difference between Philosophy and Philanthropy? and stranger? But we have already met. But I don't know about you so technically yeah we are strangers.

Abhi: *stumbles* You always talk like this?

Pragya: Yeah but you seem to talk a lot even in fever. *looks at the empty road* Looks like we are not going to have any auto here

Abhi: *tries hard to keep his eyes open*

Pragya: Hello!! *waves hand in front of him* What happened? *he leans over her shoulders* Hey! Wake up! I am not your pillow

Abhi: *opens his eyes slightly*

Pragya: *remembers he is not well* *pulls him up* *thinks that it's the only way* *sits on her vehicle and makes him sit behind* *starts riding her vehicle to hospital* *he leans on her back

Abhi: *murmurs* Where are we going?

Pragya: To hospital *he keeps falling to one of the sides making her vehicle lose balance at times* *stops* *takes her dupatta, wraps it around both of their waists and ties so that he wouldn't fall* Mr.Lecturer, please be awake and be warned, I got my license only a month ago.

Abhi: *starts singing his favourite song dizzily to keep himself awake*

Aashaayen ...

Aashaayen ...

Kutch Paane Ki Ho Aas Aas

Kutch Armaan Ho Jo Khaas Khaas

Aashaayen ...

Har Koshish Mein Ho Waar Waar

Kare Dariyao Ko Aar Paar

Aashaayen ...

Pragya: *smiles and names him living radio* *stops at the hospital* Mr.Radio get down. We reached the hospital.

Abhi: *gets down* *coughs* OK Ms.Bakbak

AU: AbhiGya street dance together in the rain.

AU: Abhi wants a stall tea so he takes Pragya and they go out to have their tea during a heavy rain.

AU: Pragya is craving chicken, makaan daal with naan, gulab jamun and ice-cream during pregnancy hence Abhi takes her out as she is only initial stages. During driving in the rain, Abhi literally is finding places to get what Pragya wants but within five minutes Pragya starts throwing tantrums, giving him all sorts of weird nicknames. Instead of taking it seriously he is laughing hysterically which infuriates Pragya further. She was about to start on him but he finds just the place where he can get the chicken and makaan daal with naan. Next stop will be looking for the desserts. After scoffing herself without a second thought, she just jumps on him by hugging him to show her appreciation for eandearing her crazy antics that she has been doing so far and will carry on until the next couple of months. For the time being their were in a bliss during the hug.

AU: AbhiGya get stuck with the heavy rain after coming back from Rajasthan for Abhi's concert and being stuck in an isolated place, they manage to found a little cottage where no one is inside hence they stay for the night and two.

AU: AbhiGya whilst jumping around in the rain catch fever and find the nearest place shelter themselves so they can after each other until the fever weighs down, then they can go to their respective homes.
