Part 3
Nupur's house
The gang was relaxing. Little Mayur and Mayuri were pestering their father. Nupur was in the kitchen with her mom-in-law, making dinner. Dia and Benji were observing Gunjan and Samrat, who were silent and lost in thoughts. The couple decided to make them talk.
After a while, Dia came up to Gunjan asked her to come to the balcony-terrace, as she needed some air. Concerned, Gunjan accompanied her, asking after her sister's health. Benji soon came up to Samrat. He asked him to come to the balcony for some private advice. Samrat was willing.
Finally, Samrat and Gunjan came face to face on the moon lit terrace, Dia and Benji smiling and observing them. Embarrassed, Samrat and Gunjan looked at them questioningly.
Dia- Kya? Sammy aise kyon gaur se dekh raho ho humme? Mangekar hai tumhaari. You guys need to talk!
Benji- Yeah dude. Gunjan. Baat sirf mat karo, thodi suno bhi! (Gunjan gave him a glance) Nahi, mera matlab...
Dia- Benji. Rehne do. Gunjan ko acchi tarase pata hai tum kya kehne chaahte ho. (Meaningfully) Hai na, Gunjan?
Gunjan blushed and looked away.
Dia and Benji slinked away, closing the terrace door after them. Samrat looked at the door, thought and then looked at Gunjan.
Samrat- Chasmish. Kya tumhe abhi bhi lagte hai ki main tumhe shaadi nahi karunga?
Gunjan (Startled)- Nahi Samrat! Aise baat nahi hai! Main toh bas kehne chaahti thi ki tumhe aisa kya jaldi hai live-in karne ke liye! Shaadi ki baat toh ho sakta hai!
Samrat- Chashmish. Mere bhi koi jaldi nahi hai. Main tumhe shaadi karunga lekin mujhe abhi bhi conviction zaroori hai.
Gunjan- Paanch saal ho gaya hai Samrat. Itna time kaafhi nahi tha, kya?
Samrat- Issi liye maine socha ki main ek baar dekhloon, ki hum ek saath pati-patni jaise reh sakte kya nahi.
Gunjan- Matlab? Agar yeh successful nahi hoga toh tum mujhe cchod dunge?
Samrat (Dumbfounded)- Chashmish! Main kyon cchod dungi tumhe? Hum dono hi slow jaane chaahte hain. Mere aisa waise koi iraada nahi hai! I have no intentions of leaving you at all! Maine bas yuhi socha ki shaadi ki pehle main aur tum ek dusre ko aur acchi tarase jaane, ek dusre ki life aur kareeb se pehchaane.
Gunjan (Thoughtfully)- I am confused, Januable. Main... Mujhe abhi bhi samajh nahi aata main kya kahoon, kya karun... Bui aur Bauji... Di aur Mayank... Sab kya sochenge, Samrat!
Samrat- Chashmish.. I will give you time..
Gunjan- Aur agar main na kahoo, shaadi cancelled?
Samrat (Quickly reacting)- Nahi! Chashmish, main tumhe aur sirf tumhe shaadi karunga! Chashmish, tumhe waakeyi lagte hain main tumhari faida uthaane ke liye yeh sab kar raha hoon?
Gunjan became speechless.
Samrat (Taking her hands)- Nahi. Bilkul nahi. Agar aisa hota, toh main ussi raat ke baad cchod deta tha tumhe...
Gunjan suddenly realized. Memories of the engagement night came, when she slept with him the second time, drunk and happy.
Samrat- Yaad hai?
Gunjan looked happy, and suddenly hugged Samrat- Mujhe sochne ki time do Samrat!
Samrat (Hugging her back)- Mere koi jaldi nahi hai Chashmish. Jaise tum intezaar ki, main bhi intezaar karunga!
The couple then broke apart. Samrat cupped his fiance's face, and kissed her on the forehead. Gunjan reciprocated by doing the same.
Samrat smiled and then- By the way, Chashmish... Niel ne sach much handshake kya ya kuch aur hua tha?
Gunjan (Reddening)- Haan Samrat. Handshake toh thi sahi!
Samrat- Jhooth. You are not a good liar Chashmish. Jaise tum sacchi hokar mere jhooth pakad sakte ho, waise main bhi tumhaari jhooth pakad sakta hoon kyonki main ek expert hoon!
Gunjan- I hope you are not lying about not leaving me!
Samrat- Chashmish. Baat ko ghumao mat. Tumhe acchi tarase pata hai ki main tumhe jhooth bahut hi kam bolta hoon. Aur iss baar maine sach hi kaha.
Gunjan (Uneasily)- Woh... Actually... Samrat, pehle kasam khao aur promise karo you wont misunderstand me!
Samrat (Taking Gunjan's shoulders)- Tum par mujhe poora vishwaas hai lekin Niel par nahi.
Gunjan sighed deeply and then described the incident at the counter.
Furious, Samrat sulked.
Gunjan (Clasping his cheeks)- Samrat. Please. Rehne do. (She embraced him) Gussa mat karo Januable.
Samrat calmed down and put his arms around her- Theek hai, Chashmish.
The rest of the gang was extremely happy to see the couple walk in back, hand-in-hand.
Later that night, Gunjan was alone in her room. Upstairs Dia and Benji were already fast asleep. (Gunjan moved in with Dia for a while, as her flat was under renovation)
Gunjan could not sleep, keeping on twisting and turning. At last she got up and looked at the clock. It was almost one AM. She sighed, breathing in and out repeatedly. Still no sleep came. Instead all sorts of thoughts entered her mind, confusing her even more. She got up and made her way to the kitchen.
She was sipping her herbal tea when Benji entered sleepily to fetch ice cream for his wife. He was surprised to see her and silently took the ice tub and left. Minutes later, Gunjan felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up.
Dia- Kya hua? Itni pareshaan kyon ho?
Gunjan (Standing up)- Dia! Tum kyon uth gayi?
Dia- Icre cream khaane aayi hoon (showing the tub in her hand) Par tumhe kyon neend nahi aa rahe hai? Aaj jo kuch hua ussi ke baare mein soch rahe ho?
Gunjan silently nodded, and the sisters sat down.
Dia- Sammy ne kuch kaha kya? Koi condition tum par daala kya?
Gunjan shook her head and looked at Dia.
Gunjan- Aaj jab maine meri phone waapus lene gayi thi, tab kuch hua tha. Main ussi ke baare main soch rahi hoon.
Dia- Kya Niel...?
Gunjan- Nahi. Meri disguise kaam kiya.
Dia- Toh phir kya hua?
Gunjan tells her.
(Flashback-
When the gang left the caf, it was decided that the boys would leave in Mayank's car and the girls in Dia's. When they left, Gunjan realized that her phone was left behind, and Dia brought the car back. Gunjan refused her sisters company but instead took Nupur's scarf and entered, her face almost covered.
She avoided looking around and made beeline for the table where the girls had sat. On not finding her phone, she suspiciously looked in Niel's table's direction. He was not there but Sheena was, sipping her coffee and talking on phone. Gunjan spotted the waiter who served her table. He was offering to the caf manager what looked like a phone. Relieved Gunjan went to them, and after thanking and tipping the waiter, she took her phone. Then as she passed by Sheena's table, from her behind, she suddenly stopped on hearing Samrat's name.)
