Chaahat
Part-1
"Comeon yaar.. How long will u keep sulking !" A girl in her early twenties, occupies a chair keeping the plate full of sandwich in table, she flip her curly hair to the sides of her shoulders.
"U dont understand maddy. This is hell man !" Said another girl taking large bite of the sandwich.
"Dips, cribbing wont help ok ! U have to accept it." Madhu said as she too took a bite of the sandwich.
"I dont get it, why my mom has to think to marry now." Dipali, the other girl said exasperate.
"Dips, she needs a companion after ur dad & u wont be there for her forever, right" madhu pacify.
"Nothing lasts forever madhu. But now.. I mean now.. After 6 long years, she need a companion ?" Dipali kept her half eaten sandwich on her plate.
"May be she didnt find that companion in anyone in these 6 years. But now she did." madhu reasoned.
"I wish my parents never got divorced." Dipali said sadly and madhu hug her sideways. Madhubala malik & Dipali Bhatia are best friends since their collage, cool buddies, sharing thick & thin. They find comfort in themselves may be because they never found that perfect family thing.
"Ur surname too is gonna change ?" Madhu ask.
"Hell.. No way." Dipali briskly denied "my mom can do anything she wants but i am not gonna comply to her in everything."
"I agree. We too have a life." Madhu agrees "and when u are locating to ur new dad's house with ur mom ?" She quizzes.
"In a day. I'll miss my home"
"I know. We used to spent hours there but thankgod ur new dad is in same area itself" madhu points.
"Thats the relief girl." Dipali smiled.
"I'll pray for u, ur new life & new family will be good" madhu hugs dipali and then when to pay the bill.
~~~~~~
Madhu unlocks the door & stealthily enters the house, keeping her shoes on racks to find the same scene from everyday going on.
"There ur princess came. 7 in evening, her venture end." Padmini snorts, dishing the plates while malik was reading newspaper & trishna, her elder sister was working on her office project.
"Throughout the day & night u kept moving around. Dont u have any sense of responsibility to come & help in house hold chores." Padmini sneers at madhu. Madhu sighed keeping her bags & equipment at corner of hall she went to the basin & took the charge of washing off the dishes. This is her everyday routine, come home & hear padmini's bickering. She dont wish to come home from her classes. Sometimes she feel to have her own apartment & live alone, but everything revolves around money & she dont have a job even. She used to spent hours in dipali's house but now that comfort has gone too.
"Ahem.." She turn aside to see Trishna handling her a glass of juice. Trishna is only relief in the house. Madhu smiled at her, folding the sleeves of the shirt she drink the juice & resume her work.
"Hows the class ?" Trishna enquired leaning on kitchen counter.
"Good dii. They gave us some designs of outfit." Madhu answered mildly.
"And what about ur modeling ?"
"Have given some auditions, but chances are least." Madhu turns to her.
"Its difficult to set a career nows a days madhu"
"I know dii. Am just clueless what to opt for & what not." Madhu sighed.
~~~~~~
"Hey :)" madhu message dipali in night, lying on her bed & within second her phone blink.
*sorry madz, was busy with shifting.* came the reply.
"No problem. So hows the house ?" Madhu typed.
*not as bad as i thought and guess what, i got something to regret :(*
"Why ?" Madhu typed as they chat.
*Along with my new step father i got a new step brother too*
"What ? Ur step father has a son ?" Madhu wonder.
*Damn !! And he is drop dead material yaar* Dipali flattered as madhu started laughing.
"So a hotty pants is ur step brother ?" Madhu quickly type.
*Damn he should be my BF, but here he became my brother. I wont ever forgive my mom for doing this to me* came crisp reply. Madhu shook her head at dipali's outburst.
*and one more thing..*
"What ?" Madhu type.
*this is embarrassing*
"What embarrassing ?" Madhu repeats.
*We are in 3BKH, and my mom's room is next to me. She is with her new husband and what they are doing alone in there at this age !*
"God.. Dipali ! Spare ur mom atleast." Madhu frowned.
*U r not in my place thats why u are saying like that. Imaging me turning elder sister at this age !* came an agitated answer.
"U know what.. Good night ! I dont have answer to ur stupid thinking" madhu quickly went offline, switching off her data pack, else dipali wont let her sleep with her bizarre thoughts.
~~~~~~
"Why god is this cruel to me.. Why ?" Dipali wails loudly sitting in canteen.
"Shhh.." Madhu swat her arms, asking her to stop over acting.
"God madhu ! U havent seen him. He is soo soo handsome & manly. I felt myself getting turn on just by the look at him. His eyes do spells, his chest, biceps, his body. He's so f**king hot." Dipali said in dreamy voice.
"So now u gotta dream wet about him." Madhu ask sarcastically "and what about Vickram ?"
"We have taken break from each other, Am available now"
"Yeah, so u are going to hang am available board in front of him to make him notice u ?" Madhu mocked.
"Ofcourse not. He noticed me yaar & his eyes in smouldering hot. He is one sex god !"
"And Forbidden Fruit for U" madhu put stop to her thought.
"Thats only future will tell, and what about Veer ?" Dipali enquired.
"Veer ?"
"He asked u out right !" Dipali state the obvious.
"No Dipz. He is too.. I dont know. I am not in for intimate relation." Madhu said.
"So, u both could just hang around" dipali suggest.
"His thoughts are all over me. Am not comfortable with his lets get laid thought" madhu denied.
"Hmm.. We'll hunt another one for u."
"Okie.." Madhu laughed. Dipali is just too keen to set her out but they are not getting the match.
"I'll seduce him." Dipali blurt all of sudden.
"Who ?"
"My so called step brother" she winked as she pulled madhu along with her to the class making madhu laugh out loud.
~~~~~~
"Ur mom hasnt became tired of her bickering yet ?" Dipali whispered to madhu in class sitting on bench.
"No. I need a job yaar. I cant keep hanging around like this. Atleast some bucks & work will pacify her." Madhu whispered back depressed.
"U both stand up !" Came a brisk order & Dipali & Madhu stands up.
"Get out of my class & discuss ur personal affair thereof" spoke the chief lead, in their designing class. Madhu & dipali exchange a look, shrugging their shoulders they took their bag to leave when their institution's head step in.
"Good morning class" he spoke. Madhu & dipali quickly get back to their seats again.
"Hope u all are doing well with the designing. As every year follows, he have joint venture with top designing companies, so this year too We got Kundra Fashion in our house. Its golden opportunity for u all. And Mr.Kundra himself will give u all outlines on designs. So excited peeps ?"
The whole class thunder with clapping & hooting.
"Now lets Welcome, the Chief Managing Director of Kundra Fashion house, Mr. Rishab Kundra." He announced. Madhu looks towards the entrance to find a well sculpted man strolling in wearing formal suit. His hairs gelled up, his eyes smoky hot, sharp nose & jaw lines, followed by perfectly shaped lips. His collar bones followed by his chest peering through the silt of his shirt. His height stand high, his persona magnificent.
"Oh f**k !" Madhu's daze broke as she hear the curse. She frowns at Dipali.
"RK ?" Dipali ogle at him.
"Who Rk ?" Madhu nudge dipali.
"Rk, Rishab Kundra, My so called Step Brother, chief managing director of Kundra Fashion, and now our recruiter too." Dipali flickered her eyes between madhu & Rk as Madhu's mouth formed O.
"Rk & u, Kundra Fashion" madhu hyperventilise "oh my goodness".
"Any problem out there ?" Their lil party was broken by Rk's velvety voice. Rk peered through the crowd to spot a girl gaping at him. There is nothing special about her, yet she stands out among the crowd.
"Noo.." She quickly shook her head at him.
"Hmm.. So, guyz, we are recruiting personals this season. I'll be taking few of ur class for guidance. Hope u'll enjoy the learning & working." Came his short speech.
"See u all around" then gazing at all students he made his way out in the same way he came in, taking everyone's breath.
"He's so hot." Came a comment.
"He can be cover face of his own fashion magazine" followed another.
"He only pose for international frame." And the gossip continues, so on.
"What ?" Dipali shouts seeing madhu glaring her like anything, then grabbing her bag she stomped out of the class with dipali running behind her.
~~~~~~
"What yaar maddy ?" Dipali grunts trying to catch up to her.
"f**k u ! Dipali" madhu snicker.
"Oh why ?"
"Why u never told me that u have become the step daughter of the famous business tycoon, owner of kundra fashion house, Mohan Kundra ?" Madhu blasted at her halting abruptly.
"I never knew it myself." Dipali said helplessly.
"Yeah right. And i believed u" madhu mocked crossing her hand over her chest.
"I am saying truth madhu. I was so depressed with my mom's decision that i never asked about my would be father."
"U never knew ur step father but u knew ur step brother !" Madhu asked unbelievingly.
"Mom just introduced him as Rk. Trust me today only i got to know that Rk means Rishab Kundra" Dipali answered as madhu scrutinise her for sometime then she threw her hand in the air.
"U have became f**king rich overnight. Our status dont match anymore. Now u dont need a job too." Madhu complaints cutely.
"Like seriously ?" Dipali stares at her "havent i specifically said that he is just my mom's husband for me. I'll never accept him as my father, and he can keep all riches to himself. I am leaving there just for my mom & i am DIPALI BHATIA still."
"Means we are still best friends ? And we still have interest in common ?" Madhu asked for reassurance.
"U are damn cute madhu" dipali pulls her for bear hug & madhu hug her tight. Madhu is insecure, she knew. But dipali is the only friend she have, cause she cant mingle much with People around.
~~~~~~
Putting the stylish neck t-shirt on his torso, hiding his taut muscles he walk around the room, spraying Cologne on himself. Standing infront of the mirror he gelled up his hairs humming to himself. Done with his looks he looks at his deadly reflection in the mirror. He is what they exactly called the night charmer, killing aura, sinfully sexy, The Rk !!
"Hey dude" he received the call as his phone was vibrating.
"We are meeting at Poison ivy Rk" came the reply of his friend.
"Cool ! Will be there In half an hour" Rk spoke huskily cutting the call, he pick his car keys to make his way out.
"Rishab" he halts in his steps hearing his father, and swiftly turn around.
"Yes dad"
"Wont u be home tonight ?" Mohan asked coming forward.
"Late at night" rk replied.
"Ur mom was asking about u."
"U can tell ur wife that am off" rk replied crisply.
"U are not happy with this marriage ?" Mohan asked seeing his attitude.
"I am happy for u, rest i will appreciate if u dont enforce those relation on me" Rk replied looking at mohan in his eyes. Rk is quite clear of thing he do & say. Mohan nodded his head and Rk moved out of the place, twirling the keys on his index finger. Radha, his mom has passed away months ago, and he has seen his dad being lonely, so he didnt object against his dad's decision but he is simply not interested in playing relation-relation. He is better off as he is !
"Hey man.." His friend sikky cheered as he made his way in the pub through the crowd with girls giving flirty looks to him, to which he too reciprocate with random flying kisses.
"Whats up guyz" Rk reached his friends & give them a manly hug.
"Where is nakul ?" He enquired ordering drink for himself.
"Obliging his girlfriend" sultan taunt & they broke out in laughter.
"Hmm.. So hows life ?" Mukund asked, as they settle with their drinks.
"Cool.." Rk replied nonchalant.
"And the new relations ur father got for u" sultan said.
"He is happy in his life & i am in mine" rk looks up at sultan.
"U left ur mansion" sikky probes.
"Right, Mrs. Bhatia has her work place here & mansion would be away from here. Besides our new venture is here too" Rk lips touched the glass as his eyes toppled over the crowd.
"She gotta daughter right" sultan asked.
"Yeah..."
"Hows she ? Hott ?" Sikky asked to which Rk smirked smugly.
"Quite wooed by me" he winked at his friends as they started hooting.
"See u guyz around.." He said, finishing off his drink he walks in the crowd to find his night's entertainment.
~~~~~~
"Today's topic is the lining of evening gown, the fabric, the colour.." Rk spoke folding up his sleeves, carelessly throwing his suit over the desk making girls swoon over him as he took the class, drawing some outlines on the green board.
"Maddy.. " dipali nudge madhu with her elbow as madhu wasn't copying the outline in her notebook.
"What ?" Madhu quietly frowns at Dipali.
"Why are u not drawing the figures ?"
"Cause i am concentrating on his figure" madhu winks at dipali tilting her head at Rk, who is busy teaching.
"And i thought u are not into guys" dipali pressed her lips.
"Am straight" madhu frowned at her "its just nobody caught my eyes"
"And Rk did ?"
"Well, he is interesting & girls can checkout guyz. God gave us eyes to see things around" madhu mused "but he is beyond my reach. I just enjoy watching him" madhu cups her both cheeks with her palms, keeping her elbow on desk.
"And what about ur advances ?" Madhu quizzes.
"He hardly stay at home" dipali pouted.
"U poor thing !" Madhu softly chuckles at dipali drawing Rk's attention on her. Damn, they has this habit of talking in the class, cause of which they kept throwing out of the class every now & then.
"Whats so funny about this design ?" Rk questions madhu, drawing whole class attention on her. Dipali quickly dips down her head in her note book scribbling, while feeling everyone's gaze on her Madhu stands up looking around, finally landing her eyes on Rk, whose eyes are bored into hers.
"I.. Umm.." She fidgets what to answer, while he walks upto in last bench, where she is sitting.
"Yes.. U what ?" Rk ask grimly stepping closer to her, and her breath starts heaving up cause of his effect or his voice or his eyes which is piercing her, she dont know. He intrigued her.
"Answer up lady" he spoke in velvet filled voice keeping his hand on the desk, leaning towards her. Madhu looks at him blankly for a moment as he saw the ocean of beauty in her eyes.
"She was tickling me" madhu sputter quickly holding dipali's hand pulling her up as Dipali looks on flabbergasted.
"No, i didnt do anything" dipali crisp.
"Are they lesbian ?" They hears the comment of someone from the class, and Rk's lips quivered up into smirk.
"We are very much straight" dipali hissed darting an angry glance at madhu as she shrugged her shoulders. She is least affected by people's comment on her single status.
"Hmm.. Else it would be huge lose for Male species, if u were straight" Rk winked at them making their mouth form O, as he strolled back to the low height stage.
"Any more romance left ? Or should we resume the class ?" He asked loudly, making the class break into laughter while making madhu & dipali frown.
"Sir, they never attends any class seriously." One of the girl said making dipali & madhu roll their eyes.
"Not any, We are Talking about My Class, Rk's Class. It dont fall in any random category" rk cleared with such a tone with say not-a-word-hereof.
"U two sit down" he spoke to madhu & dipali & resumes his class.
~~~ ~~~
"What was that maddy" dipali furiously kept hitting madhu with her bag, as madhu kept laughing holding her stomach.
"I was planning to woo him & u give him the stance that i may be a lesbo !" Dipali said annoyed.
"Girl, i didnt find anything to cover, the way he was looking, its intriguing" madhu says shifting across the bench giving dipali space to sit.
"Thats why i said he is one sexy piece" dipali sits beside her "hey its been a long time we hang out together, lets go home"
"Home ? As in ur new kundra home ?" Madhu asked.
"Pretty much"
"But the new bunch of people out there.." Madhu hesitated.
"Thats more like haunted house, people hardly stays there, everyone busy with their own work."
"Cool, am in" madhu cheered. Time with dipali is escapade from her real life problems.
~~~~~~
"Wow.. This so beautiful" madhu look around in childish glee at the well maintained apartment full with luxurious & expensive, ancient things, every stuff prim, proper, shiny. Its feels like if she touch a thing it will become dirty.
"Thats my room, the third one. U go & look around, i'll bring snacks for us" dipali smiled at madhu. Madhu becomes happy at nothing.
Hearing the childish shriek, Rk saunter towards his room's door to see who has step in his territory. From the half opened door he spot the same girl from his class, moving around the hall and then disappearing in dipali's room, with dipali following her with two plates of eatables. Not caring a bit, he went to his bed, playing on his tablet.
"Dips, this is so comfy" madhu sprawled on the bed keeping a pillow on her lap "hey, no one is in home now ?"
"No. Did u saw anyone out there ?"
"No.." Madhu spoke.
"Well, Whats makes u so happy out there ?" Dipali mused.
"Everything is so posh & clean. It felt like i came to other planet" madhu giggled popping chips in her mouth.
"Ah.. Its raining" dipali said looking towards the glass door opening of terrace.
"Beautiful.. Rain views splendid from ur room, dipali" madhu spoke in awe as she made her way to the terrace. She stretched her hand out of the shelter, as the rain drops trickle down her fingers.
~~~~~~
"Man.. This stupid rain" Rk curse as the wind push the raindrop in his room through the open terrace. He step out of his bed & hurries to close the glass doors when his eyes beholds a sight in the opposite direction.
"Ye mausam ki baarish
ye baarish ka paani
ye paani ki boondein
tujhe hi to DhoonRhein"
(This rain of this weather,
This rain-water,
These drops of water,
they look for you only)
Madhu closed her eyes, and step out in rain, letting the natural drops drizzle down over her, drenching her. She is wearing a knee length summer dress, which now efficient sticks to her skin in provocative way projecting out her body, to Rk's eyes.
Rk's eyes were glued to her, as she twirls around smiling to herself, no make up, nothing but still she looks heavenly. Though earlier he didnt heed much attention to her but now his fingers inched to trance those drops down her body, touching her. Sliding off the fabric covering her, exposing her skin to him, to taste her moist skin.
"Ye milne ki khwaahish
ye khwaahish puraani
ho poori tujhi se
meri ye kahaani"
(this wish to meet,
this old wish,
with you only,
This story of mine gets completed)
[Song Baarish from movie Half Girlfriend]
"Madhu.." His trance broke as he hears dipali shouting out for madhu then forcibly pulling her in closing the terrace door behind them. Rk closed his eyes, replaying her images, then shrugged it off, getting back to work. Its just a moment.
~~~~~~
"Well, here is the first recruitment offer, by Kundra Fashion House. Any three people among u all will get the chance to work as assistant designer in Kundra Fashion." The supervisor Abhay kapoor announced as all students cheered "The tests will be performed in several rounds, information of which will be out in notice board & the best 3 will be selected. All the best peeps !"
As Abhay went out, all started to gossip among themselves.
"Its great opportunity dips" madhu turned to dipali, as they walks out of the class.
"Ya, it is !" Dipali said "u should try for it"
"I'll" madhu nods, as they pass through the corridor.
"Madhu u wait here, i'll just go & pay the due in canteen ok" dipali prompts.
"Okie, come fast" madhu leaned against a pillar as dipali rushed towards canteen. Standing alone, madhu watch her bag, her watch, her ring, which she has watched for thousand times in a row. Then getting bored she look around the carefree people merrily moving around the campus. World seems so beautiful if its is been looked from their eyes, then she moved her eyes around, and stopped at distant corner & thats it, her eyes became round.
Rk was standing with his one hand against the wall, leaning over a girl, and that girl is in their batch itself, quite popular for her babe looks. She is all smiley to him, while he is all flirty with her.
"Madhu.." Dipali nudged madhu with her elbow "where are u lost ?"
"Isnt that Rk & that Ria ?" Madhu points with her eyes in rk's direction.
"Hell yeah !" Dipali nearly shouts.
"Shh.." Madhu shush her quickly.
"Cant believe he is flirting with his so called intern in the institution itself. Dont they have any code of conduct ?" Dipali looks at madhu as madhu looks back at dipali.
"Leave it, lets go" dipali said to which madhu nods, as they walk to the parking lot.
~~~~~~
"So ?" Ria speaks slyly as she plays with the hem of Rk's shirt, all the while a smug smirk playing on his lips looking at her.
"U're interesting Tia.." He spoke. Though a bunch of girls tried to get close to him from the batch, which is not new for him, he find this girl interesting among others.
"Its Ria, not Tia.." Ria frowned.
"Yeah.. Ria, tia.. Name doesnt make a difference sweetheart." He spoke standing straight, with the buzz of his cell phone. He makes sure to find his entertainment where ever he works.
"Excuse me now, see u later babe" he gives a flying kiss before turning around to walk away as Ria looks smiles back at him slyly.
~~~~~~
"What are u doing Ms. Malik. U are asked to give red & silver lining, & u'r trying for blue & golden. Why are u even using ur own brain" Abhay criticised madhu, as the the final selection for assistant was going on.
"Sir, i was just trying for something new. Royal blue is in fashion now a days" madhu reasoned.
"If u wish to be here, do what i ask u to do. Get it !" Abhay sneered, as madhu looks away irritated.
"Is some copy pasting programme going over here ?" Came a magnificent voice as madhu turned towards him.
"Mr. Kundra, u here ?" Abhay quickly went towards Rk.
"Yes Mr.kapoor. So what is the problem in trying out creativity ?" Rk questions.
"No, sir actually we were.."
"Abhay u know, market is dynamic. Customer's preference changes every now & then, and in such a case we should try to provide them with alternations." Rk stated walking towards madhu as abhay becomes silent.
"Hmm.. Ur concept is good. Its just that much of golden decor with ruin the beauty of fabric" Rk spoke to madhu looking at her.
"I was thinking of using it for borders. Here are the designs" madhu prompts as she quickly shows Rk her designs of gowns.
"Impressive" rk smiled after his lil inspection "but need few improvements, like here. In the waist border.."
And he begins to show her the alternations. Madhu looks at him amazed, he is indeed a very talented designer & the way he gives people chance to show their creativity, its really appreciative.
"And here the final design" he ended breaking madhu's thoughts.
"Beautiful" madhu whispered. Rk gives her a casual smile, then went back promising to declare the results soon.
~~~~~~
"Dips, i got selected" madhu shrieked on the phone deafening dipali's ears.
"Congrats buddy" dipali congratulates.
"Thankyou so much yaar. Ok talk to u later. Have to inform dii too" madhu said.
"Ya.. Ya.. Bye.." Dipali too stutter, as she saw Rk coming out of his room.
Madhu was about the go out of her room when she notice that the call in still on.
"Uffo this dipali again forgot to hang up.." She muttered as she was about to end the call, when she hears Dipali speaking to someone.
"Hey.." Dipali prompts, stopping Rk to hear her.
"Mom & Mr.kundra went to Delhi. She told me to inform u, and the food is in freezer. I can heat it up for u. We can have dinner together." Dipali says.
"Sure.." Rk spoke, and then the line went blank with the faint sound of their foot steps.
Madhu looks at her cell phone, wondering to cut the call or not, but then a question struck her. Is she spying on her best friend ??
But for what ?? And why ??

"Comeon yaar.. How long will u keep sulking !" A girl in her early twenties, occupies a chair keeping the plate full of sandwich in table, she flip her curly hair to the sides of her shoulders.
"U dont understand maddy. This is hell man !" Said another girl taking large bite of the sandwich.
"Dips, cribbing wont help ok ! U have to accept it." Madhu said as she too took a bite of the sandwich.
"I dont get it, why my mom has to think to marry now." Dipali, the other girl said exasperate.
"Dips, she needs a companion after ur dad & u wont be there for her forever, right" madhu pacify.
"Nothing lasts forever madhu. But now.. I mean now.. After 6 long years, she need a companion ?" Dipali kept her half eaten sandwich on her plate.
"May be she didnt find that companion in anyone in these 6 years. But now she did." madhu reasoned.
"I wish my parents never got divorced." Dipali said sadly and madhu hug her sideways. Madhubala malik & Dipali Bhatia are best friends since their collage, cool buddies, sharing thick & thin. They find comfort in themselves may be because they never found that perfect family thing.
"Ur surname too is gonna change ?" Madhu ask.
"Hell.. No way." Dipali briskly denied "my mom can do anything she wants but i am not gonna comply to her in everything."
"I agree. We too have a life." Madhu agrees "and when u are locating to ur new dad's house with ur mom ?" She quizzes.
"In a day. I'll miss my home"
"I know. We used to spent hours there but thankgod ur new dad is in same area itself" madhu points.

Madhu sighed keeping her bags & equipment at corner of hall she went to the basin & took the charge of washing off the dishes. This is her everyday routine, come home & hear padmini's bickering. She dont wish to come home from her classes. Sometimes she feel to have her own apartment & live alone, but everything revolves around money & she dont have a job even. She used to spent hours in dipali's house but now that comfort has gone too.
"Ahem.." She turn aside to see Trishna handling her a glass of juice. Trishna is only relief in the house. Madhu smiled at her, folding the sleeves of the shirt she drink the juice & resume her work.
"Hows the class ?" Trishna enquired leaning on kitchen counter.
"Good dii. They gave us some designs of outfit." Madhu answered mildly.
"And what about ur modeling ?"
"Have given some auditions, but chances are least." Madhu turns to her.

"U know what.. Good night ! I dont have answer to ur stupid thinking" madhu quickly went offline, switching off her data pack, else dipali wont let her sleep with her bizarre thoughts.

"His thoughts are all over me. Am not comfortable with his lets get laid thought" madhu denied.
"Hmm.. We'll hunt another one for u."
"Okie.." Madhu laughed. Dipali is just too keen to set her out but they are not getting the match.
"I'll seduce him." Dipali blurt all of sudden.
"Who ?"
"My so called step brother" she winked as she pulled madhu along with her to the class making madhu laugh out loud.
~~~~~~
"Ur mom hasnt became tired of her bickering yet ?" Dipali whispered to madhu in class sitting on bench.
"No. I need a job yaar. I cant keep hanging around like this. Atleast some bucks & work will pacify her." Madhu whispered back depressed.
"U both stand up !" Came a brisk order & Dipali & Madhu stands up.
"Get out of my class & discuss ur personal affair thereof" spoke the chief lead, in their designing class. Madhu & dipali exchange a look, shrugging their shoulders they took their bag to leave when their institution's head step in.
"Good morning class" he spoke. Madhu & dipali quickly get back to their seats again.
"Hope u all are doing well with the designing. As every year follows, he have joint venture with top designing companies, so this year too We got Kundra Fashion in our house. Its golden opportunity for u all. And Mr.Kundra himself will give u all outlines on designs. So excited peeps ?"
The whole class thunder with clapping & hooting.
"Now lets Welcome, the Chief Managing Director of Kundra Fashion house, Mr. Rishab Kundra." He announced. Madhu looks towards the entrance to find a well sculpted man strolling in wearing formal suit. His hairs gelled up, his eyes smoky hot, sharp nose & jaw lines, followed by perfectly shaped lips. His collar bones followed by his chest peering through the silt of his shirt. His height stand high, his persona magnificent.
"Oh f**k !" Madhu's daze broke as she hear the curse. She frowns at Dipali.
"RK ?" Dipali ogle at him.
"Who Rk ?" Madhu nudge dipali.
"Rk, Rishab Kundra, My so called Step Brother, chief managing director of Kundra Fashion, and now our recruiter too." Dipali flickered her eyes between madhu & Rk as Madhu's mouth formed O.
"Rk & u, Kundra Fashion" madhu hyperventilise "oh my goodness".
"Any problem out there ?" Their lil party was broken by Rk's velvety voice. Rk peered through the crowd to spot a girl gaping at him. There is nothing special about her, yet she stands out among the crowd.
"Noo.." She quickly shook her head at him.
"Hmm.. So, guyz, we are recruiting personals this season. I'll be taking few of ur class for guidance. Hope u'll enjoy the learning & working." Came his short speech.
"See u all around" then gazing at all students he made his way out in the same way he came in, taking everyone's breath.
"He's so hot." Came a comment.
"He can be cover face of his own fashion magazine" followed another.
"He only pose for international frame." And the gossip continues, so on.
"What ?" Dipali shouts seeing madhu glaring her like anything, then grabbing her bag she stomped out of the class with dipali running behind her.
~~~~~~
"What yaar maddy ?" Dipali grunts trying to catch up to her.
"f**k u ! Dipali" madhu snicker.
"Oh why ?"
"Why u never told me that u have become the step daughter of the famous business tycoon, owner of kundra fashion house, Mohan Kundra ?" Madhu blasted at her halting abruptly.
"I never knew it myself." Dipali said helplessly.
"Yeah right. And i believed u" madhu mocked crossing her hand over her chest.
"I am saying truth madhu. I was so depressed with my mom's decision that i never asked about my would be father."
"U never knew ur step father but u knew ur step brother !" Madhu asked unbelievingly.
"Mom just introduced him as Rk. Trust me today only i got to know that Rk means Rishab Kundra" Dipali answered as madhu scrutinise her for sometime then she threw her hand in the air.
"U have became f**king rich overnight. Our status dont match anymore. Now u dont need a job too." Madhu complaints cutely.
"Like seriously ?" Dipali stares at her "havent i specifically said that he is just my mom's husband for me. I'll never accept him as my father, and he can keep all riches to himself. I am leaving there just for my mom & i am DIPALI BHATIA still."
"Means we are still best friends ? And we still have interest in common ?" Madhu asked for reassurance.
"U are damn cute madhu" dipali pulls her for bear hug & madhu hug her tight. Madhu is insecure, she knew. But dipali is the only friend she have, cause she cant mingle much with People around.
~~~~~~
Putting the stylish neck t-shirt on his torso, hiding his taut muscles he walk around the room, spraying Cologne on himself. Standing infront of the mirror he gelled up his hairs humming to himself. Done with his looks he looks at his deadly reflection in the mirror. He is what they exactly called the night charmer, killing aura, sinfully sexy, The Rk !!
"Hey dude" he received the call as his phone was vibrating.
"We are meeting at Poison ivy Rk" came the reply of his friend.
"Cool ! Will be there In half an hour" Rk spoke huskily cutting the call, he pick his car keys to make his way out.
"Rishab" he halts in his steps hearing his father, and swiftly turn around.
"Yes dad"
"Wont u be home tonight ?" Mohan asked coming forward.
"Late at night" rk replied.
"Ur mom was asking about u."
"U can tell ur wife that am off" rk replied crisply.
"U are not happy with this marriage ?" Mohan asked seeing his attitude.
"I am happy for u, rest i will appreciate if u dont enforce those relation on me" Rk replied looking at mohan in his eyes. Rk is quite clear of thing he do & say. Mohan nodded his head and Rk moved out of the place, twirling the keys on his index finger. Radha, his mom has passed away months ago, and he has seen his dad being lonely, so he didnt object against his dad's decision but he is simply not interested in playing relation-relation. He is better off as he is !
"Hey man.." His friend sikky cheered as he made his way in the pub through the crowd with girls giving flirty looks to him, to which he too reciprocate with random flying kisses.
"Whats up guyz" Rk reached his friends & give them a manly hug.
"Where is nakul ?" He enquired ordering drink for himself.
"Obliging his girlfriend" sultan taunt & they broke out in laughter.
"Hmm.. So hows life ?" Mukund asked, as they settle with their drinks.
"Cool.." Rk replied nonchalant.
"And the new relations ur father got for u" sultan said.
"He is happy in his life & i am in mine" rk looks up at sultan.
"U left ur mansion" sikky probes.
"Right, Mrs. Bhatia has her work place here & mansion would be away from here. Besides our new venture is here too" Rk lips touched the glass as his eyes toppled over the crowd.
"She gotta daughter right" sultan asked.
"Yeah..."
"Hows she ? Hott ?" Sikky asked to which Rk smirked smugly.
"Quite wooed by me" he winked at his friends as they started hooting.
"See u guyz around.." He said, finishing off his drink he walks in the crowd to find his night's entertainment.
~~~~~~
"Today's topic is the lining of evening gown, the fabric, the colour.." Rk spoke folding up his sleeves, carelessly throwing his suit over the desk making girls swoon over him as he took the class, drawing some outlines on the green board.
"Maddy.. " dipali nudge madhu with her elbow as madhu wasn't copying the outline in her notebook.
"What ?" Madhu quietly frowns at Dipali.
"Why are u not drawing the figures ?"
"Cause i am concentrating on his figure" madhu winks at dipali tilting her head at Rk, who is busy teaching.
"And i thought u are not into guys" dipali pressed her lips.
"Am straight" madhu frowned at her "its just nobody caught my eyes"
"And Rk did ?"
"Well, he is interesting & girls can checkout guyz. God gave us eyes to see things around" madhu mused "but he is beyond my reach. I just enjoy watching him" madhu cups her both cheeks with her palms, keeping her elbow on desk.
"And what about ur advances ?" Madhu quizzes.
"He hardly stay at home" dipali pouted.
"U poor thing !" Madhu softly chuckles at dipali drawing Rk's attention on her. Damn, they has this habit of talking in the class, cause of which they kept throwing out of the class every now & then.
"Whats so funny about this design ?" Rk questions madhu, drawing whole class attention on her. Dipali quickly dips down her head in her note book scribbling, while feeling everyone's gaze on her Madhu stands up looking around, finally landing her eyes on Rk, whose eyes are bored into hers.
"I.. Umm.." She fidgets what to answer, while he walks upto in last bench, where she is sitting.
"Yes.. U what ?" Rk ask grimly stepping closer to her, and her breath starts heaving up cause of his effect or his voice or his eyes which is piercing her, she dont know. He intrigued her.
"Answer up lady" he spoke in velvet filled voice keeping his hand on the desk, leaning towards her. Madhu looks at him blankly for a moment as he saw the ocean of beauty in her eyes.
"She was tickling me" madhu sputter quickly holding dipali's hand pulling her up as Dipali looks on flabbergasted.
"No, i didnt do anything" dipali crisp.
"Are they lesbian ?" They hears the comment of someone from the class, and Rk's lips quivered up into smirk.
"We are very much straight" dipali hissed darting an angry glance at madhu as she shrugged her shoulders. She is least affected by people's comment on her single status.
"Hmm.. Else it would be huge lose for Male species, if u were straight" Rk winked at them making their mouth form O, as he strolled back to the low height stage.
"Any more romance left ? Or should we resume the class ?" He asked loudly, making the class break into laughter while making madhu & dipali frown.
"Sir, they never attends any class seriously." One of the girl said making dipali & madhu roll their eyes.
"Not any, We are Talking about My Class, Rk's Class. It dont fall in any random category" rk cleared with such a tone with say not-a-word-hereof.
"U two sit down" he spoke to madhu & dipali & resumes his class.
~~~ ~~~
"What was that maddy" dipali furiously kept hitting madhu with her bag, as madhu kept laughing holding her stomach.
"I was planning to woo him & u give him the stance that i may be a lesbo !" Dipali said annoyed.
"Girl, i didnt find anything to cover, the way he was looking, its intriguing" madhu says shifting across the bench giving dipali space to sit.
"Thats why i said he is one sexy piece" dipali sits beside her "hey its been a long time we hang out together, lets go home"
"Home ? As in ur new kundra home ?" Madhu asked.
"Pretty much"
"But the new bunch of people out there.." Madhu hesitated.
"Thats more like haunted house, people hardly stays there, everyone busy with their own work."
"Cool, am in" madhu cheered. Time with dipali is escapade from her real life problems.
~~~~~~
"Wow.. This so beautiful" madhu look around in childish glee at the well maintained apartment full with luxurious & expensive, ancient things, every stuff prim, proper, shiny. Its feels like if she touch a thing it will become dirty.
"Thats my room, the third one. U go & look around, i'll bring snacks for us" dipali smiled at madhu. Madhu becomes happy at nothing.
Hearing the childish shriek, Rk saunter towards his room's door to see who has step in his territory. From the half opened door he spot the same girl from his class, moving around the hall and then disappearing in dipali's room, with dipali following her with two plates of eatables. Not caring a bit, he went to his bed, playing on his tablet.
"Dips, this is so comfy" madhu sprawled on the bed keeping a pillow on her lap "hey, no one is in home now ?"
"No. Did u saw anyone out there ?"
"No.." Madhu spoke.
"Well, Whats makes u so happy out there ?" Dipali mused.
"Everything is so posh & clean. It felt like i came to other planet" madhu giggled popping chips in her mouth.
"Ah.. Its raining" dipali said looking towards the glass door opening of terrace.
"Beautiful.. Rain views splendid from ur room, dipali" madhu spoke in awe as she made her way to the terrace. She stretched her hand out of the shelter, as the rain drops trickle down her fingers.
~~~~~~
"Man.. This stupid rain" Rk curse as the wind push the raindrop in his room through the open terrace. He step out of his bed & hurries to close the glass doors when his eyes beholds a sight in the opposite direction.
"Ye mausam ki baarish
ye baarish ka paani
ye paani ki boondein
tujhe hi to DhoonRhein"
(This rain of this weather,
This rain-water,
These drops of water,
they look for you only)
Madhu closed her eyes, and step out in rain, letting the natural drops drizzle down over her, drenching her. She is wearing a knee length summer dress, which now efficient sticks to her skin in provocative way projecting out her body, to Rk's eyes.
Rk's eyes were glued to her, as she twirls around smiling to herself, no make up, nothing but still she looks heavenly. Though earlier he didnt heed much attention to her but now his fingers inched to trance those drops down her body, touching her. Sliding off the fabric covering her, exposing her skin to him, to taste her moist skin.
"Ye milne ki khwaahish
ye khwaahish puraani
ho poori tujhi se
meri ye kahaani"
(this wish to meet,
this old wish,
with you only,
This story of mine gets completed)
[Song Baarish from movie Half Girlfriend]
"Madhu.." His trance broke as he hears dipali shouting out for madhu then forcibly pulling her in closing the terrace door behind them. Rk closed his eyes, replaying her images, then shrugged it off, getting back to work. Its just a moment.
~~~~~~
"Well, here is the first recruitment offer, by Kundra Fashion House. Any three people among u all will get the chance to work as assistant designer in Kundra Fashion." The supervisor Abhay kapoor announced as all students cheered "The tests will be performed in several rounds, information of which will be out in notice board & the best 3 will be selected. All the best peeps !"
As Abhay went out, all started to gossip among themselves.
"Its great opportunity dips" madhu turned to dipali, as they walks out of the class.
"Ya, it is !" Dipali said "u should try for it"
"I'll" madhu nods, as they pass through the corridor.
"Madhu u wait here, i'll just go & pay the due in canteen ok" dipali prompts.
"Okie, come fast" madhu leaned against a pillar as dipali rushed towards canteen. Standing alone, madhu watch her bag, her watch, her ring, which she has watched for thousand times in a row. Then getting bored she look around the carefree people merrily moving around the campus. World seems so beautiful if its is been looked from their eyes, then she moved her eyes around, and stopped at distant corner & thats it, her eyes became round.
Rk was standing with his one hand against the wall, leaning over a girl, and that girl is in their batch itself, quite popular for her babe looks. She is all smiley to him, while he is all flirty with her.
"Madhu.." Dipali nudged madhu with her elbow "where are u lost ?"
"Isnt that Rk & that Ria ?" Madhu points with her eyes in rk's direction.
"Hell yeah !" Dipali nearly shouts.
"Shh.." Madhu shush her quickly.
"Cant believe he is flirting with his so called intern in the institution itself. Dont they have any code of conduct ?" Dipali looks at madhu as madhu looks back at dipali.
"Leave it, lets go" dipali said to which madhu nods, as they walk to the parking lot.
~~~~~~
"So ?" Ria speaks slyly as she plays with the hem of Rk's shirt, all the while a smug smirk playing on his lips looking at her.
"U're interesting Tia.." He spoke. Though a bunch of girls tried to get close to him from the batch, which is not new for him, he find this girl interesting among others.
"Its Ria, not Tia.." Ria frowned.
"Yeah.. Ria, tia.. Name doesnt make a difference sweetheart." He spoke standing straight, with the buzz of his cell phone. He makes sure to find his entertainment where ever he works.
"Excuse me now, see u later babe" he gives a flying kiss before turning around to walk away as Ria looks smiles back at him slyly.
~~~~~~
"What are u doing Ms. Malik. U are asked to give red & silver lining, & u'r trying for blue & golden. Why are u even using ur own brain" Abhay criticised madhu, as the the final selection for assistant was going on.
"Sir, i was just trying for something new. Royal blue is in fashion now a days" madhu reasoned.
"If u wish to be here, do what i ask u to do. Get it !" Abhay sneered, as madhu looks away irritated.
"Is some copy pasting programme going over here ?" Came a magnificent voice as madhu turned towards him.
"Mr. Kundra, u here ?" Abhay quickly went towards Rk.
"Yes Mr.kapoor. So what is the problem in trying out creativity ?" Rk questions.
"No, sir actually we were.."
"Abhay u know, market is dynamic. Customer's preference changes every now & then, and in such a case we should try to provide them with alternations." Rk stated walking towards madhu as abhay becomes silent.
"Hmm.. Ur concept is good. Its just that much of golden decor with ruin the beauty of fabric" Rk spoke to madhu looking at her.
"I was thinking of using it for borders. Here are the designs" madhu prompts as she quickly shows Rk her designs of gowns.
"Impressive" rk smiled after his lil inspection "but need few improvements, like here. In the waist border.."
And he begins to show her the alternations. Madhu looks at him amazed, he is indeed a very talented designer & the way he gives people chance to show their creativity, its really appreciative.
"And here the final design" he ended breaking madhu's thoughts.
"Beautiful" madhu whispered. Rk gives her a casual smile, then went back promising to declare the results soon.
~~~~~~
"Dips, i got selected" madhu shrieked on the phone deafening dipali's ears.
"Congrats buddy" dipali congratulates.
"Thankyou so much yaar. Ok talk to u later. Have to inform dii too" madhu said.
"Ya.. Ya.. Bye.." Dipali too stutter, as she saw Rk coming out of his room.
Madhu was about the go out of her room when she notice that the call in still on.
"Uffo this dipali again forgot to hang up.." She muttered as she was about to end the call, when she hears Dipali speaking to someone.
"Hey.." Dipali prompts, stopping Rk to hear her.
"Mom & Mr.kundra went to Delhi. She told me to inform u, and the food is in freezer. I can heat it up for u. We can have dinner together." Dipali says.
"Sure.." Rk spoke, and then the line went blank with the faint sound of their foot steps.
Madhu looks at her cell phone, wondering to cut the call or not, but then a question struck her. Is she spying on her best friend ??
But for what ?? And why ??
