madhu: well my car tyre got punctured
sultan: no problem, come i will drop you
madhu: its okay sultan, i will manage
sultan: madhu you will not get any taxi here... so plz come i will drop you.
madhu: ok thanks sultan
madhu opened the door of the car and suddenly rk came and sit in the car.
rk: bro can you give me lift to my house?
sultan: what happened to your car?
rk: well my car suddenly stop working so i thought that you will give me lift. afterall we live in the same house. come madhubala sit bro and i will drop you.
rk gave madhu his famus smirk while madhu was glaring at him. there was silence in the car so rk turn on the radio on which aadha ishq (from the movie band baja baarat) was playing.
rk: hey madhubala isn't that your favourite song
madhu did'nt reply to him.
Namkin si baat hai, har nayi si baat mein
Teri khusboo chal rahi, hai jo mere saath mein
Halka halka rang beetay kal ka
Gehra gehra kal ho jaayega
Ho jaayega
Aadha ishq, aadha hai, adha ho jaayega
Kadmon se meelon ka vaada ho jaayega
Aadha ishq, aadha hai, adha ho jaayega
Kadmon se meelon ka vaada ho jaayega
Beshumaar raatein, behisab baatein
Pass aate aate gum ho jaati hai
Bekhudi mein dhal ke, bekali mein jal ke
Sau hazaare yaadein nam ho jaati hai
Pheeka pheeka pal beetay kal ka
Mehka mehka kal ho jaayega
Ho jaayega
Aadha ishq, aadha hai, adha ho jaayega
Kadmon se meelon ka vaada ho jaayega
Aadha ishq, aadha hai, adha ho jaayega
Kadmon se meelon ka vaada ho jaayega
Aadha ishq ...
madhu remember how she use to sing this song all the time for rk. remebering her past, tears start flowing from her eyes but she quickly wipes them without coming into the notice of sultan. but rk noticed them and he turn off the radio.
sultan: what happened rishu? why you turn off the radio?
rk: nothing bro... if that song continue for some more time than it will be impossible for someone to hold back there tears.
sultan gave him a confused look while madhu was shocked. rest of the journey was in silence. both rk and madhu were lost in there own world while sultan was busy in driving. suddenly brakes applied which bring both of them back into the world.
sultan: madhu here is your house
madhu: thanks sultan
sultan:its ok, goodnight
madhu: goodnight sultan
she did not say anything to rk but both of them had a small eyelock. then madhu came out of the car and move towards her home
sultan: rishu is there anything which you are hiding from me
rk: no bro, why are you asking me this?
sultan: i don't know rishu whether i am right or wrong but whenever you are around madhu became silent. she doesn't talk to you much even you are his schoolmate then also
rk: actually bro me and madhubala doesn't share a good relation with each other during our school days. so may be thats why she doesn't talk to me so much.
sultan: i hope this is the only reason.(thinking) i know rishu you are hiding something from me.
whole of the week goes like this. sultan try to spent more time with madhu but rk always came between them. But sultan and madhu became good friends. during office hours they spent most of time with each other and at night they spend time talkinhg to each other on phone. after so many days madhu has find someone with whom she can share her feelings. whenever she is in trouble sultan help her.
