PART 1 : Ek Anjaana Ehsaas jo hua dil ko Khaas...
"Di tumhare liye ek good news hai... maine maa ko phone par baat karte hue suna... a proposal of some ACP has come for you and they are coming to see you day after tomorrow... I don't remember his name though..." Aarna, Ananya's younger sister said wriggling her brows as she looked at Ananya driving the car with her forehead creased with a frown of concentration. Aarna's words fuelled the irritation she was feeling due to her recent case regarding illegal smuggling of weapons.
"What... yeh maa bhi naa... why is she always behind my wedding and match making as if she has no other work to do... Aur tumhe bada maza aa raha hai Aarna..." she gave an irate look to Aarna as she changed gear of car while the imp just suppressed her chuckle.
"Agent Ananya Kashyap... ek baat batana... tumhe shaadi ke naam se itni chidh kyu hai... I mean tum successful ho... beautiful ho... aur tumhari age bhi shaadi ke liye perfect hain... phir kya baat hai ki tum shadi se bhaagti rehti hoon..." she asked curiously.
"Aarna... There is no reason... I just don't want to get married... I don't want to tie myself into some relation with someone I don't even know properly... Main jise jaanti hi nahi uske saath zindagi kaise nibhaungi... so..." Ananya shrugged.
"Oh... toh tum love marriage karna chahti ho... wait wait... di are you in love...???" Aarna cried impatiently.
"Whoa whoa... cut it... I am not interested in any kind of marriage... EITHER ARRANGED OR LOVE... now please stop this discussion... I don't want to talk about this stressful topic after a gruelling day..." Ananya replied in an irate tone as she turned the car towards the left while a blurred male image involuntarily floated in front of her eyes on the mention of her love. Ananya couldn't understand whose image it was...and first of all why she saw that. Aarna shut her mouth after one look at Ananya's face as she continued chewing on her bubblegum.
Aarna could not help thinking about Ananya's irritation behind the talk of marriage and her mind was telling her that Ananya has something in her heart that she is not able to express... but she was always like this... never able to express her emotions in words. But Aarna knew that Ananya, though acts like a very strong, strict, and fierce CBI officer from out... she is as soft n kind inside... like a coconut to be precise. Her profession demanded her to be tough but from inside she was a lovely young woman with normal smiles, dreams n expectations that a woman has. Ananya and Aarna moved in the office. Ananya had picked her from her tuition classes but her boss, Chief Khalid had called her back to the office for some urgent work and she had to come back along with Aarna as her scooty had broken down a day before.
Ananya asked Aarna to sit in her cabin and moved towards the conference room. Aarna agreed and after greeting her sister's colleagues including Agents Richa, Malvika, Manav and Ronnie, moved in her cabin. She saw Ananya's blazer still hanging on her chair. Maybe she must have forgotten it she thought. Her mind cooked up some mischief and she put the jacket on and took a seat on Ananya's chair swirling it around so that her back faced the door. She masked her expressions to strict ones like her didi. Fortunately her black denims and maroon shirt resembled Ananya's black trousers and maroon formal shirt. She spoke like her sister one moment and giggled the next at her acting skills having silly fun.
"Hi... Ananya.. abhi office aayi tum..." Agent Kabir Sharma, Ananya's colleague, asked casually as he entered into her cabin.
Aarna deducted that it must be Kabir from his tone and calling Ananya by her first name which only Kabir in the entire office did. All others called her mam and her seniors called her as Agent Ananya Kashyap or as Ms. Kashyap. Fortunately her voice resembled to Ananya's to an extent along with her features and height and hence she tried to test his intelligence by behaving like Ananya and seeing of her recognizes her or not.
"Haan... Vo I had gone to the parlour... maa ne bataya that a boy is coming to see me day after tomorrow... so needed to freshen up..." she replied still looking at the wall in her front.
"Parlour... that means you are ready to tie the knot now..." Kabir asked in his ever so mischievous tone knowing how much this question irritated her.
"Haan... ab samajh gayi hoon Kabir ki shaadi ko itne din avoid karke I have been unreasonable with myself as well as my family... I have heard that the boy is an IPS and from a good family so I have given my consent to meet him and hence needed to make up myself..." Aarna replied like Ananya as she pretended to look busy holding some file. The answer stumped Kabir... He had never expected this kind of response and moreover she sounded happy on the news of her marriage and Kabir wasn't able to understand the sudden approval to the thing she hated the most till the previous day. He felt his heart get sour and he wasn't even able to understand the reason behind the feelings he felt at the simple answer. He was never concerned whenever he got to hear that she has got a wedding proposal from some guy coz he always knew that she would deny to it at the end of the day. But it seemed that this time the meet was mutually decided and she would now return only after being announced as an official fiance of some random "Good family's IPS officer"... Oh hell! Kabir felt his chest would suffocate in the cabin.
" Great... Ms. Ananya Kashyap... please go and celebrate... I think I should be leaving as you look too busy to even look at me while talking... Maybe because of the proposal of the IPS officer..." he replied as he left the cabin the instant and the office the next. Aarna was surprised at the gesture. She wasn't understanding why did Kabir behave so weird suddenly. She had said all those just because she was not getting what to talk and knowing that how observant n keen Kabir Sharma was, she just blurted out her conversation with Ananya to avoid him becoming suspicious. But she wasn't understanding his behaviour. She felt that Kabir didn't like the idea of Ananya getting engaged to someone else... as if he was jealous... Her chain of thoughts was broken by the voice of the door open and she saw Ananya walking in. After collecting her things and they walked out of the office.
~~~~~~~~~~
Ananya was walking down the corridor towards Kabir's cabin when she bumped into someone. The papers in her hands fell and she immediately bent to pick them so that their order doesn't gets destroyed.
"Oh god... sare papers gir gaye..."
"Sorry sorry... I am so sorry Ananya ji... it was my fault..." he said as he too bent down to help her gathering those papers.
"It's okay..." Ananya replied as she stood up... "But how do you know me... I mean sorry I don't remember seeing you before..." She asked.
"I am Ankit... Mr. Khalid's son..." he replied and forwarded his hand for a handshake.
"Oh... Hello Mr. Ankit... nice to meet you..." Ananya accepted his handshake and smiled.
"Same here... papa se bohot suna tha aapke bare mein...Actually I was here to invite you and Mr. Kabir... for my dad and mom's 33rd wedding anniversary... I have arranged a party for them and you have to come... or else dad will not like it..." He said in a casual tone.
"Oh... that's great... actually I don't socialise much... so.." he started to say but Ankit cut her, "No so... no ifs and buts... you need to attend... dad jaante the ki aap aisa hi kuch kahengi... aur isliye hi unhone mujhe kaha hai ki aapko toh mujhe invite karna hi hai... my mom wants to meet you too..." he replied.
"Okay... I will come.." Ananya smiled and took his leave politely. Ankit smiled too and moved ahead. The two were completely oblivious to the pair of eyes looking at them with a frown and the person was none other than Kabir. He straightened his face as Ankit neared him...
"Hello Agent Kabir Sharma... finally I get to meet you..." Ankit extended his hand for a shake which Kabir reciprocated with a tight smile. He shook his hand and Ankit invited him formally to the party held the same evening. Kabir accepted the invitation half heartedly... coz the invitation was fron his boss and denying it would look rude... He wasn't able to understand why... but he was already not feeling right after his last encounter with Ananya... His ever so chilled our aura was missing... when she had said that she is happy to get married he was feeling kind of melancholic... and now seeing her so oblivious to his irritation and talking and smiling was putting him at edge all the more... Ankit after a goodbye left the office... The schedule for the day was light hence everyone left the office in the evening itself so that they can reach the party venue on time...
Ananya stood in front of the wardrobe confused as what to wear to the party. She was never a party girl so she never stressed on getting ready but she had to attend this one. Ananya had just thought to pick up a random dress when her eyes halted on a box kept beside her dresses... She opened it curiously only to find a lovely saree and a beautiful set of jewellery in it. A note fell from below the cover, which read
"For my lovely di... plz kam se kam party mein toh dhang se taiyaar hokar jaana meri not so social butterfly... yours Aarna... :P"
Ananya chuckled at that and rushed in the restroom. Getting ready in a simple yet classy way much like her personality, she left home in her car.
Kabir locked his car and walked in the hall. Presenting a smashing look in his black tuxedo minus tie and a few buttons left open at the top, he could have made each girl out there go weak in her knees. The satin pocket square only enhanced his look like his light unshaved stubble. He had just entered the party lawns when he saw Khalid standing near the staircase with a lady and presuming it to be his wife, he moved towards them and wished them sweetly presenting them with a lovely bouquet of blood red roses. They accepted his wishes and Mrs. Khalid blessed him. He was talking to her when his eyes casually moved toward the entrance only only to be stuck at the sight.
A lady moving in the lawns, decked in a lovely peach saree with golden hemmed velvet navy blue patch border...teamed up with a velvet and gold sequin work small sleeved blouse, hair tied in a loose side bun, very different from her usually kept loose tresses. Two beautiful diamond jhumkaas adorning her ears and light make up that only enhanced her lovely features, she looked beautiful. Kabir felt his breath caught and for a second he couldn't believe that she is the same Ananya he daily works with. An absolute antagonist to what he sees always...but like a charming delicate woman.
Kabir's brow creased when he saw a man coming and receiving her on the entrance. He shook her hands and turned around to walk in along with her. The frown deepened to see the man to be none other than Ankit. They both walked in smiling.
"Kabir kaha khoye hi tum..." Malvika's voice pulled him a out of his trance and he tore his eyes from them in a jiffy. He realised that Khalid had moved to receive other guests and Malvika had come to greet him. He just nodded while he excused himself and moved towards the drinks corner. Ananya moved towards Kabir and greeted him casually with a sweet smile... so unlikely of her.
"Hey Kabir... kab aaye tum.."
"Hi Ananya... I have just come..." he replied rather dryly. The convo he last made with her regarding her wedding was still afresh in his mind and he wasn't feeling the same to talk to her now... as if she had suddenly transformed into some other... The Ananya he knows so better since 3 years was nowhere near to what he was seeing now. As if a completely new person has taken on in her flesh and blood.
"Achhe lag rahe ho... in kapdo mein..." she complimented him... not registering the dryness and his voice much.
"Thank you very much Ms. Kashyap..." he replied sombrely again. Ananya this time felt the rude tone. He had stopped calling her from her surname since long but only did that at times when he was mad at her and knowing that very nicely she was about to ask him the reason for his behaviour since afternoon when Khalid came seeing the together and borrowed her for a moment to meet his wife who was very eager to meet her.
Mrs. Khalid turned around as she felt a touch on her shoulder. She smiled widely to see Ananya standing behind her with Khalid. He had brought her to meet his wife. She hugged her merrily and blessed her when she bent to touch her feet, stopping her midway. Both the females talked and laughed like they know each other since long. Khalid called Ankit and introduced her to him. Ankit replied that he had already met her in the office when he had gone to invite the VIP CBI employees personally.
"Oh toh aap log mil chuke hain... Ankit beta make her comfortable... hum abhi aate hai..." Mrs. Khalid said as she moved to receive other guests.
Ananya looked at him while he smiled as he stopped the waiter passing by and handed her a glass of orange juice. She thanked him and had just touched the glass to her lips to sip it when her while body froze for a second. Kabir laughing looking like a carefree child while looking extremely hot and handsome at the same time in the formal tux with an informal look. She had failed to notice the dashing looks he presented at first but when she noticed she could bot help but admire him and his well built physique draped in that well fitting suit. She had always seen him in his office casuals and now his completely new and hot look had awed her. Kabir turned as he stuffed his phone in his pocket only to see an enchanted Ananya looking at him unblinkingly. Her eyes met his only to be locked for a whole minute before she averted hers as Ankit voice pulled her out of her stupor. Kabir was looking devilishly handsome today and she secretly wasn't wishing to take her eyes off him. While Kabir too was feeling the same. She looked etheral in that saree and he wanted to just keep looking at her. Kabir's 's eyes darted beside Ananya and seethed seeing that man again with her. Oh he was stuck to her like a leech... and Kabir was slowly loosing his patience. For a a second his mind urged him to go and give a hard smack on that stupid Ankit's head.
"So ladies and gentlemen... I hope you all are enjoying the party... now I request everyone to please choose their partner's and hit the dance floors... Taki party ki shaan mein char chand lag jaaye..." a guy said holding the mike on the stage. Soon a few couples reached the floor as the DJ played a soft tune. Ankit had opened his mouth to speak when Mrs. Khalid moved in there.
"Ananya beta... aap enjoy to kar rahi ho na.. kaisi lag rahi hai party... maine suna tum parties wagereh zyada enjoy nahi karti..." she asked.
"Ji aunty... party bohot achhi hai... I really liked it..." Ananya replied politely.
"Maa... aapki ijaazat ho toh kya main Ananya ji ko ek dance ke liye leke ja sakta hoon..." Ankit asked out of the blue shocking Ananya. Mrs. khalid shrugged and asked him to ask Ananya as she is the one with whom he wants to dance.
"Ananya ji aapko aitraaz na ho toh kya aap mere saath dance karengi..." Ankit asked moving his palm forward. Ananya was at loss of words. She wasn't knowing how to respond. She thought to decline but then it would look rude, especially in front of his mom so she thought to give it a go as a casual dance with boss' son won't hurt. She nodded and hesitatingly kept her palm into his and he took her to the dance floor. She placed her right hand on his shoulder and he placed his on her back. Their left hands locked they danced softly while Kabir's patience almost gave away. His mind raged and he was feeling like strangling Ankit.
The closeness they shared though only for the dance, made him realise that he cannot see her with anyone else but HIM. Yes he was possessive of her and felt that only he had the right to dance with her in his arms. He realised that he has fallen head over heels for his strict, workaholic, disciplined yet beautiful and soft hearted CBI officer. He closed his eyes not able to bear the sight of her in some other man's arms. After a minute he opened them to see Ananya gazing at him with a look he had never seen in her eyes, still moving on the dance floor. A look which held yearning and pain along with a deep nameless emotion... She had seen him squeezing his eyes shut on the moment she stepped on the floor with Ankit.
Their gazes locked as Kabir looked at her with an expression that expressed his hurt to see his love with some other man. While Ananya gazed at him with a yearning... though subconsciously, but she wanted him to be the one she would dance with... him to be the only one who can sway with her caged in his arms. Dancing with another guy made her realise that no one can take the place Kabir had in her life and her heart. She has started liking him... and now she knows that she loved him... loves him madly. But she knew Kabir does not... Why would a handsome and cheerful man like him love a strict and boring woman like her. The music stopped and everyone moved down. Ananya moved a little fast as if she was looking for a single chance to go away from the place. Dinner started after some time and went as a silent affair for Kabir and Ananya as both went through their respective turmoil in hearts of hearts... while Ananya was confused and wanted to have a word with Kabir but wasnt able to because of Ronnie or Richa interrupting one time or other... Kabir even though dying to talk to her wasn't able to go and say a word to her... and the reason was unknown to both...
"So guys... now let's play a game before we end the evening... We are giving everyone present here a coloured card and each card has a match with the opposite gender... ladki yaha aayegi aur card dikhaayegi aur vo ladka jiske paas same colour ka card hoga vo aayega aur phir the two will have to perform... ab romantic evening hai toh games bhi waise hi hone chahiye... kyu dosto..." the same guy who had announced before said. Ananya sighed exasperated at the dancing event and was about to leave the lawn when a girl came and handed her a red card and moved away. She just frowned irately and looked at the card with angst.
"Let's see Ananya ji... I might be lucky to get another dance with you..." Ankit replied coming near her. Ananya just faked a smile and looked towards the stage silently praying that Ankit should not be the one this time... A few people making couple with their friends, relatives with same cards performed sweetly... luckily Ronnie too got to perform with Richa and he was beaming with happiness. Ananya clapped softly and looked around... Kabir wasn't anywhere in view... maybe he has left. The party got even more sour for her... realising her love for him sometime ago while he behaving aloof with her was making her head ache...She looked at the entrance wishing to go when the guy called the girl with the red card. Ananya looked caught and she smiled nervously. The introvert she was... All this was getting on her nerves.
Though she loved dance but she wasn't liking to dance with anyone else than Kabir. She reluctantly moved on the stage and showed her card. She expected some random guy to come as most of the people were from the same profession and hence she knew them. But her eyes popped out to see Kabir appearing out of blue and reaching the stage with a red card in his hand. He handed his card to the guy and gave out his hand for her to place her hand upon. She blinked twice to see of this was for real and the almighty has been generous enough to give her what her heart was secretly desiring. She gave in her palm and he clutched his fingers around it before he pulled her along on the dance floor.
How was it...

She had failed to notice the dashing looks he presented at first but when she noticed she could bot help but admire him and his well built physique draped in that well fitting suit. She had always seen him in his office casuals and now his completely new and hot look had awed her. Kabir turned as he stuffed his phone in his pocket only to see an enchanted Ananya looking at him unblinkingly. Her eyes met his only to be locked for a whole minute before she averted hers as Ankit voice pulled her out of her stupor. Kabir was looking devilishly handsome today and she secretly wasn't wishing to take her eyes off him. While Kabir too was feeling the same. She looked etheral in that saree and he wanted to just keep looking at her. Kabir's 's eyes darted beside Ananya and seethed seeing that man again with her. Oh he was stuck to her like a leech... and Kabir was slowly loosing his patience. For a a second his mind urged him to go and give a hard smack on that stupid Ankit's head.
"So ladies and gentlemen... I hope you all are enjoying the party... now I request everyone to please choose their partner's and hit the dance floors... Taki party ki shaan mein char chand lag jaaye..." a guy said holding the mike on the stage. Soon a few couples reached the floor as the DJ played a soft tune. Ankit had opened his mouth to speak when Mrs. Khalid moved in there.
"Ananya beta... aap enjoy to kar rahi ho na.. kaisi lag rahi hai party... maine suna tum parties wagereh zyada enjoy nahi karti..." she asked.
"Ji aunty... party bohot achhi hai... I really liked it..." Ananya replied politely.
"Maa... aapki ijaazat ho toh kya main Ananya ji ko ek dance ke liye leke ja sakta hoon..." Ankit asked out of the blue shocking Ananya. Mrs. khalid shrugged and asked him to ask Ananya as she is the one with whom he wants to dance.
"Ananya ji aapko aitraaz na ho toh kya aap mere saath dance karengi..." Ankit asked moving his palm forward. Ananya was at loss of words. She wasn't knowing how to respond. She thought to decline but then it would look rude, especially in front of his mom so she thought to give it a go as a casual dance with boss' son won't hurt. She nodded and hesitatingly kept her palm into his and he took her to the dance floor. She placed her right hand on his shoulder and he placed his on her back. Their left hands locked they danced softly while Kabir's patience almost gave away. His mind raged and he was feeling like strangling Ankit.
The closeness they shared though only for the dance, made him realise that he cannot see her with anyone else but HIM. Yes he was possessive of her and felt that only he had the right to dance with her in his arms. He realised that he has fallen head over heels for his strict, workaholic, disciplined yet beautiful and soft hearted CBI officer. He closed his eyes not able to bear the sight of her in some other man's arms. After a minute he opened them to see Ananya gazing at him with a look he had never seen in her eyes, still moving on the dance floor. A look which held yearning and pain along with a deep nameless emotion... She had seen him squeezing his eyes shut on the moment she stepped on the floor with Ankit.
Their gazes locked as Kabir looked at her with an expression that expressed his hurt to see his love with some other man. While Ananya gazed at him with a yearning... though subconsciously, but she wanted him to be the one she would dance with... him to be the only one who can sway with her caged in his arms. Dancing with another guy made her realise that no one can take the place Kabir had in her life and her heart. She has started liking him... and now she knows that she loved him... loves him madly. But she knew Kabir does not... Why would a handsome and cheerful man like him love a strict and boring woman like her. The music stopped and everyone moved down. Ananya moved a little fast as if she was looking for a single chance to go away from the place. Dinner started after some time and went as a silent affair for Kabir and Ananya as both went through their respective turmoil in hearts of hearts... while Ananya was confused and wanted to have a word with Kabir but wasnt able to because of Ronnie or Richa interrupting one time or other... Kabir even though dying to talk to her wasn't able to go and say a word to her... and the reason was unknown to both...
"So guys... now let's play a game before we end the evening... We are giving everyone present here a coloured card and each card has a match with the opposite gender... ladki yaha aayegi aur card dikhaayegi aur vo ladka jiske paas same colour ka card hoga vo aayega aur phir the two will have to perform... ab romantic evening hai toh games bhi waise hi hone chahiye... kyu dosto..." the same guy who had announced before said. Ananya sighed exasperated at the dancing event and was about to leave the lawn when a girl came and handed her a red card and moved away. She just frowned irately and looked at the card with angst.
"Let's see Ananya ji... I might be lucky to get another dance with you..." Ankit replied coming near her. Ananya just faked a smile and looked towards the stage silently praying that Ankit should not be the one this time... A few people making couple with their friends, relatives with same cards performed sweetly... luckily Ronnie too got to perform with Richa and he was beaming with happiness. Ananya clapped softly and looked around... Kabir wasn't anywhere in view... maybe he has left. The party got even more sour for her... realising her love for him sometime ago while he behaving aloof with her was making her head ache...She looked at the entrance wishing to go when the guy called the girl with the red card. Ananya looked caught and she smiled nervously. The introvert she was... All this was getting on her nerves.
Though she loved dance but she wasn't liking to dance with anyone else than Kabir. She reluctantly moved on the stage and showed her card. She expected some random guy to come as most of the people were from the same profession and hence she knew them. But her eyes popped out to see Kabir appearing out of blue and reaching the stage with a red card in his hand. He handed his card to the guy and gave out his hand for her to place her hand upon. She blinked twice to see of this was for real and the almighty has been generous enough to give her what her heart was secretly desiring. She gave in her palm and he clutched his fingers around it before he pulled her along on the dance floor.
How was it...
