Chapter 12
Karan who was in his room was messaging Shrishti. He was smiling at the messages because Shrishti was telling him about Sameer's stupid antics. Shrishti video call him by mistake. Karan answers the call.
Karan: Tumne video call kyun kiya?
Shrishti: Woh galti se lag gaya sir
Karan: Accha sunn ab tune call karr hi diya hai toh..maa aur sab farm house ke plan ke liye ready ho gaye hai. Preeta se bhi mom ne baat karr li hai (flashes his dimpled smile)
Shrishti: Arre waah sir!
Karan: I know (grins)
Just then Preeta walks into his room and sees him talking to Shrishti on a video call
Shrishti: You are the best!
Preeta gets annoyed and snatches the phone from Karan
Preeta: Ho gayee baat? Ab bye. Mujhe Karan se kaam hai
Preeta cuts the call
Karan: Kya kiya tumne?
Preeta: Kaat diya phone
Karan: Tum na bahut badi bajjarbatti ho
Preeta: Chup karo bajjabattu. Neechay itni important cheez discuss karr rahe the, aur tum upaar chale aagaye
Karan: Arre dumbo mujhe poora plan pata hai. Maine hi toh finalise kiya hai!
Preeta: Mujhe kaun batayega?
Karan: Tumhare Rishabh ji hai na.. woh tumhe batate
Preeta: Kuch bhi. Main kyun poochun unse? Plan hamara hai na?
Karan: Accha theek hai sunno (comes closer to her like an excited kid). Wahaan hum tum donno ko ek room mein bandh karr denge, fir tum donno ek doosre ko maar maar ke khatam karr dena!
Preeta: Aarrrhhhggg... chup karo tum!
Karan: Sorry baba. Dekho wahaan kya karna hai, yeh socha nahin hai humne. Bass itna pata hai ki family ke saamne woh koi scene create nahin karegi. Plus Kareena bua hongi, tumhe kuch na kuch bol dengi. Humein dekhna hai ki woh kya tumhari side legi ya chup chaap tumhara insult hote dekhegi. Uske baad ka plan hum wahin plot karenge
Preeta: Haan tum theek keh rahe ho. Waise Shrishti ne tumhe video call kyun kiya tha?
Karan: Galti se lag gaya tha. Ab usne call karr hi diya tha, toh maine baat karr li aur usko plan ke baare mein update bhi karr diya (shrugs)
Preeta: Ok. Hum kal kitne baje nikal rahe hai?
Karan: Tum log saat baje nikal rahe ho. Rishabh aur Sameer tum sab ko ghar se pick karr lenge
Preeta: Matlab? Aur tum? Tum kyun nahin pick karoge?
Karan: Actually meri coach se baat ho rahi thi. Kal important session hai. Toh main session attend karke directly farm house pohoch jaunga
Preeta: Parr Karan, toh hum bhi tumhare saath chalte hai na!
Karan: Babydoll, tum lof aagey chale jao. Main peechay se aata hoon na
Preeta is very disappointed
Preeta: (in her mind) Mujhe toh iske saath jaana tha. Saath mein hota toh kitna mazza aata
Next day everyone leaves for the Luthra farm house as decided. Karan leaves for his session, while Rishabh and Sameer go to pick up the Aroras. Preeta is very upset that Karan is not travelling with them. Rishabh tries his best to ensure that Preeta is in the same car with him, but his plan fails. Tania, Tanvi and Shrishti ensure that Preeta and Natasha are in one car with them.
Shrishti: Rishabh ji aap maa, daadu aur Janki aunty ko le chalo. Sameer aur Kritika saath aa rahe hai. Rakhi aunty, Mahesh uncle, Kareena ma'am aur Dadi saath aa rahe hai. Aur hum sab (looks at the girls) saath ek car mein travel karr rahe hai.
Rishabh: Parr...
Tania: Hamari car full hai, hum saath chal rahe hai. Aur agar Karan hamare saath aa raha hota, toh hum use apne saath le chalte
Sameer: Aur Karan bhai kahaan baithte?
Shrishti: Stupid! Back seat mein
Sameer: Aur tum 6 log ek saath kaise baithte?
Shrishti: Toh kya hua? Hum Preeta di ko Karan sir ki godh mein baitha dete
Preeta's eyes widen. Tania and Tanvi giggle, while Rishabh gets uncomfortable
Preeta: Shrishti tu kuch bhi bolti hai!
Shrishti: Accha koi baat nahin. Main Karan sir ki godh mein baith jaati. Waise mujhe koi problem nahin hai Karan sir ke saath back seat mein coochie coo karte huye (smiles mischievousy)
Sameer gives her a dirty stare. Rishabh smiles it off. Preeta gets very irritated.
Preeta: Excuse me? Actually main hi baith jaati uski godh mein.
Everyone stares at her in disbelief. Preeta realises her blunder and says
Preeta: Mera matlab hai, Shrishti teri height ki wajah se tu kaise fit hogi. I am perfect for Karan
Preeta: (in her mind) Yeh tu kya keh rahi hai Preeta
Preeta looks around and changes the topic
Preeta: Arre chalo! Late ho raha hai
She hurries towards the car and sits in the passengers seat
Natasha looks at Tania and says.
Natasha: Tu drive karegi (hands her the keys and goes and sits in the back seat)
Sameer takes Rishabh away. Tania, Tanvi and Shrishti look at each other.
Tania: Guys we can do this (all three look at the car with determination)
After a couple of hours the Luthras and Aroras reach the farm house. On the other hand Karan also leaves and is continuously thinking about Preeta while driving. On the other hand, Preeta is already missing Karan. She is in two minds whether she should call him. Rishabh keeps on finding reasons to talk to Preeta.
Rishabh: Preeta ji main aapka saaman aapke room mein rakh deta hoon
Preeta: Thanks Rishabh ji. But Shrishti ne saaman rakh diya hai
Rishabh gets disappointed. Preeta goes and sits with the girls while she desperately looks towards the door waiting for Karan.
Precap: Karan and Preeta ponder over all the moments they have shared. Rishabh goes to Preeta's room to talk to her. Karan's romantic entry and Preeran moments.
