Hi everyone, since this is a triangular love story wala show, only one couple is going to make it in the end as it is neither Mahabharath nor a funky English movie. 😛 So either way, one set of fans have to make do with FFs and others of course can catch their pair on TV. Since we don't know who will make it in the end, both pairs should have lot of FFs dedicated to them, you know as a contingency plan! 😉 So since I saw many lovely FFs for NiRaj pair, and almost none for NiBir, I thought I will write a stupid OS myself, to instigate other awesome writers to write better ones for NiBir! 😉
So here is a long Nisha-Kabir slice of life One Shot served fultoo filmy ishtyle! 😳
Disclaimer: I'm really new to this show, just started watching it around 2-3 weeks back after I saw a scene of NiBir in the promos. Therefore naturally I don't have much grasp of the characters, err I don't even know every person's name in the show. So I'm really sorry if you find anything out of place or out of character. Anyways it is all just for fun. Hope nobody is offended due to anything written here. Also sorry for all the grammatical errors you might encounter here. 😕

Premise of the story:
It has been 6 months since Kabir and Nisha's marriage has come in front of everybody and they are forced to live together in the same room. In the beginning everything was awkward and everybody angry. They have come a long way from who sleeps on the floor to alternate day/alternate person sleeping on the floor negotiations to the present, 'let us share the bed but keep to your side' deal.
Others too have come to terms with his presence, including his mom and his new found brother. His mom and brother have gone to London to his brother's house for few months, to try and catch up with the entire mother -son bonding time they missed. But before he left, he had made Nisha in-charge of precious Lakshya academy. He really could not trust anyone better.
In the meantime, Kabir was still living in Nisha 's house. He had joined their business due to fear of dadaji in the beginning but started loving it after his skill of convincing people did great business for the store. Also his photography skills came in handy for making international standard catalogues for the store and displaying their wares in various magazines. His works were becoming popular. Cousins too had accepted him as one of them. He also had an ongoing fun gag with them, where he playfully flirts with Keerthi, saying the old 'saali- aadhi gharwali ' joke. Nisha of course tells him in her usual way that better keerthi than herself to suffer him. So basically all are their happy usual self.
Now the scene:
There is a pooja in the house and all the married people have to sit in the pooja. And as per the custom, all the ladies have to wear sari. Now in all the hurry, everybody forgot that Nisha doesn't know to tie a sari as nothing had actually changed for her after marriage and she was used to wearing her usual clothes. So when it was about time to start the pooja, everybody including Kabir who was sitting in his spot near the havan kund, were waiting for his wife. Then he heard a giggle from one of the cousins and in a matter of seconds everybody started laughing until dadaji gave his usual glare. Kabir was facing the other side and could not see the reason for the commotion immediately. So when he turned, he saw that his wifey was standing there in horribly garish colored sari, tied in the most ridiculous way! He wondered where the hell she found such a piece!
By then the poojari ji had already scolded all the ladies who were trying to get up to help Nisha saying it was not good to get up once seated before pooja is over. The other cousins were then pleading with him saying that they too don't know how to tie a sari. All the while Nisha just stood there thinking of the ridiculousness of it all. She really didn't care for how she looked, after all who cares how she looked in a sari or any other dress for that matter.
But before she could tell everybody that, Kabir had gotten up from his seat and was moving towards her, amidst poojari ji's protests. He told poojari ji that his pair is not complete without her and so there was no use for him to sit alone in the pooja if she was standing there.
He then asked her to come with him to their room at once and was dragging her towards that area. After entering he locked the room and asked her, "Yeh kya pehen rakha hai tumne? "
Nisha: kyun kisse kya farak padtha hai main kya pehenthi hun ya nahi?
Kabir : Well mujhe padtha hai. Mujhe accha nahi lagtha jab koi meri wifey pe hasse.
Nisha was kind of dumstruck hearing it. They still had a Tom and Jerry kind of vibe most of the times, so occasionally when he said such things she was always surprised. She still has not analysed what she feels during such times. But like always she postpones thinking about it.
In the meantime she sees that Kabir is ransacking their cupboard for something furiously. Before she asks, he makes a Eureka noise and produces a pretty pink color sari with flourish! She hasn't seen that before and didn't know such a thing existed in their cupboard.
Kabir then comes towards her and says, " toh ab tum ne yeh jho ridiculous sari pehen raki hai usse uttaro aur isse peheno."
Nisha: Hello genius abi tak tumhe samajh me nahi aaya hai tho mai khud hi bata deti hoon ki mujhe sari pehenna nahi aata!
Kabir: woh tho mein is haal ko dekhthe hi saamajh gaya tha! And laughs
She swats his arm and says, "abhi tho kaha tha ki koi bhi tumhari wifey pe hasse tumhe accha nahi lagtha. aur aab khud hi haas rahe ho? "
Kabir: woh koi aur hasse tho problem hai, main khud hass saktha hoon, That is the rule!
Nisha makes an irritated face at that and he laughs.
He then asks her to remove her sari.
Nisha shrieks: What? Pagal hogaye ho? Main apni kapade nahi utaroongi!
Kabir: arrey maine kahan saare kapde utharne ko kaha? Sirf saari utharo, tumhara yeh stupid off white blouse joh iss jatak orange sari se match nahi ho raha hai, is pink sari ke saath match ho jayega. So sirf apni saari utharo, aur sochko ki tumne ek skirt aur blouse pehni hai. Ok?"
Nisha: kya ?Never! Kabhi nahi!
Kabir: Arrey yar wifey, itna kya natak kar rahi hai? Tum tho chote chote shorts pehne ke night mein ghoomthi rehthi ho, tab tho tumhe koi farak nahi padtha ki mein dekh raha hoon ya nahi, yeh tho fir bhi poori covered hai just like ghagra choli and all, you see?
Nisha: Tu nah bada K hai!
Kabir: Abb tum aise hi nakre karthi rahogi tho tere Singham aa jayenge. Aur ab tho mein unka pet hun tho sirf tumhe hi daant pitegi. Soch lo...
Nisha: Mujhe abhi tak samajh mein nahi aaya khi tumne dadaji ko kaise pata liya?
Kabir: Main tho aisa hi hoon. Ab jaldi karo. Acha teek hain, tum change karo aur yeah duppata pehenlo, mein turn karta hoon tab tak.
Nisha then thinks better of it and changes her sari and wears a duppata on top and says she is ready. Meanwhile he has taken the sari and pleated it and holds it to her to insert it. She tries shabbily, so he takes it from her and inserts it himself. She starts to giggle as it tickles her. He scolds her to remain calm and starts doing his job seriously.
She then taunts him asking whether he actually knows what he is doing or just showing off. For which he replies that he used to do this all the time in US. She then laughs and says "kya wahan ka latest style tha ki ladke sari pehen ke ghoome?"
He then playfully pokes her with a pin and says, "Nahi, mein ladkiyon ko patane ke liye unhe sari pehnatha tha. Yeh saari gori mems nah sari pe maarthi hain, tho mein apni mom ki sari choorake unhe pehnantha tha. Aur itna popular ho gaya ki ladkiyan line pe legne lagi mujhese sari pehne ke liye!"
Nisha: seriously kyun dinge haad raha hai!
Kabir: arrey yar saach mein, vishwaas nahi tho meri mom se pooch lena. Kyonki unhi ki wajah se mujhe who rokna pada. Kyunki kuch ladkiyan nah baahut K thi aur sari return hi nahi kiya aur mom ko pata chal gaya ki unke kapde gayab ho rahe the! Aur mujhe zoron ki maar padi!"
Nisha laughs loudly at this and thinks that her so called hubby was really a very funny guy. By the time she is lost in her thoughts; he had completed his job and was now turning her towards the mirror.
She saw herself in the mirror and was awed at his handiwork. She really looked stunning in that sari. He then pulled his collar up and raised his eyebrows at her. She then rolled her eyes and suppressed her laugh and said,"haan thik hai, jho bhi hain, meri wajah se hai, tumhari sari ki wajah se nahi, hmmpf"
He then scoffs and tells her,"haan haan, bolthi raho" And then he makes her sit on the dressing chair and removes her hair clip. "Tum hamesha baal kula chodthi ho na? Tho wahi karo, it suits you more". For a moment there, their eyes lock and both get lost.
He then opens a drawer and pulls out something. It is a small white crystal bindi which was gifted by one of her cousins along with the garish sari as a part of a prank on her b-day. He then takes it and places it on her forehead with utmost care, never breaking the eye contact with her. Then he softly says , "aab look complete hai."
They remain there lost in the moment with her sitting on the chair and him holding her shoulder from behind and eyes locked in the mirror for a long time until they hear furious knocking on their door!
It was her younger cousin calling their name and threatening them that dadaji is furious and waiting for them. They suddenly come back to their senses and move apart. They then come out and as expected everybody was awed looking at her. Kabir was preening proudly not only for his handiwork but for seeing the much deserved appreciation his wife got. He knew that she did not think she was a great beauty and did not care much for her appearance. But he wanted to make her understand she was equally beautiful outside as she was inside. She was confident about her capabilities now, but wanted her to be confident of her appearance too. She was afraid of dressing up and he wanted to let her know that it was ok to let loose. She was stunning and he would make sure she knew it!
After the pooja was over they were back in their room and she was trying to remove her sari. She cribs in frustration," seriously Kabir, tumne kitne pins lagaye hain isme, hundred?" He then comes near her and starts helping her. Their eyes again get locked in the mirror and suddenly they both laugh at the ridiculousness of it all. He tells her he has removed all the pins and she can change her sari safely now and turns to leave the room.
She says a soft thank you into the mirror and he smiles. Just before he opens the door he turns back and tells her, " waise main yeh sari meri darling saali ke liye birthday present mein dena chahtha thai magar ab tumpe itna suit kar raha hai tho tum hi rak lo." Nisha: Tumhari darling saali ka b-day tho 6 mahine baad hai!
Kabir:haan tho half b-day bhi koi cheez hoti hai!
Nisha: seriously kabir, kuch bhi bakwaas bolke situation sambhalna nah koi tumse sikhe! And smiles.
Kabir too smiles and says: Waise ek baath hai, tum saari mein waakahai mein bahut acchi lag rahi ho... magar...
Nisha: Magar?
He opens the door and almost leaves, she keeps waiting for his answer and he whispers softly from the door," mujhe tum jho bhi pehenthi ho, un sab mein acchi hi laghthi ho" and closes the door behind him.
She sits there blushing uncharacteristically wondering what was happening to her. She then hears her brother shouting at her husband saying, " Jiju aap kitne late ho! Aapko apna batting better karna hai ki nahi? Doosre teammates aapko sirf meri wajah se team mein rak rahein hai! Pata hai aapko?!" and hears her husband saying," Arrey mere Sachin Tendulkar, mein aa rahan hoon. Seriously agar mein bhi India mein itne saalon se hota nah, abb tak tho world cup khel raha hota, haan!" And hears her lil brother scolding him and pulling him away.
She sits there smiling at how her life had changed and was still changing every moment. At first she had hated it, now she is not sure whether what happened was that bad. May be he was her destiny after all.
...
Love is not bound by time limits; two people can't be made to fall in love in a given amount of time. It happens gradually; it grows like a plant starting from a small seed and slowly develops into a huge tree with roots so deep that it would last for more than a lifetime. All it needs is a little bit of patience and lots of understanding. 😳
