Dil De Diya
An AR OS
Music was blasting in the pub as boys and girls were dancing crazily with friends and their partners... Some were enjoying their drinks while talking with their friends while some were enjoying their moment in corners with their partners... Guy were sitting near the bar as he was talking to himself while looking at his mobile every then and now...
'Yeh Champ bhi pata nehi kaha rehgaye... Ek toh mujhe Basket ke paas jaana hai, usko samjhana hai woh us Modi ke saat kaam nehi kar sakte aur yaha yeh Champ pata nehi kaha rehgaye...' Guy said as he look around when his eyes caught two guys with a girl who was wiping her cheeks...
Guy didn't give much attention to them and look towards the entrance hoping to catch his friend but there was no sign of him still... He look around the pub as it was not a huge one but still it was pack up with a huge crowd... His eye move to the girl who was with the two guys and suddenly she stood up and left towards the washroom...
Guy was about to divert his eyes but suddenly he caught one of the guy taking something from his pocket and adding it to the girl drinks... He knows drugs are being carried away in such places, so he move close to them to make sure what they were up to...
'Yeh peekar toh usko hosh bhi nehi hoga uske saat kiya huva...' One guy said...
'Badi aayi humhare saat apne dukh baatne, ab dikha te hai usko humko kiya chahiyeh...' Second guy said...
Once he was sure they had mixed drugs on the girl's drink, he move back to his seat waiting for the girl to come... He again check his mobile and it show a msg from his friend informing that he can't come... They were support to meet to discuss their senior doctor's wedding ceremony but here his friend was stuck in god knows which situation...
He was about to exit but saw the girl joining her friends, they offer her the drink but she said she would drink later but they were insisting so she took the drink and was about to drink it when the guy reach them and took the drink out from the girl's hand...
'Yeh kiya kar rahe ho aap...' Girl asked...
'Aap yeh nehi pee sakte...' Guy said...
'Woh kyun nhi pee sakte???' one of her friend asked...
'Kyunki maine dekha hai tum dono ke ismein kuch milate huve... Probably drugs...' Guy said...
'Kiya yeh sach keh rahi hai Sunny???' Girl asked...
'Tu ab uska baat maanenge, hum dono toh tumhari dost hona...' Second guy said...
'Rehne de Monty, ab toh isse hum par bhi barosa nehi rahenge...' Sunny said...
'Aisa nehi hai lekin yeh kyun kahenge tum dono ne isse kuch milaya hai..' Girl said...
'Pata nehi, shayad yeh akela hai issiliyeh tujhe dosti karna chahte hai...' Monty said...
'Dude, yeh sach hai main yaha akela hoon lekin main koi bhi ladki ke saat galat hone nehi de sakta...
Mera baat jhut hai toh saabit karo, tum mein se koi ek yeh drink piyo...' Guy said...
'Yeh jhut bol raha hai toh Sunny tum yeh piyo...' Girl said...
Sunny and Monty look at each other knowing if any of them drink it, the drug would started to react in a few minutes and how can they let that happen in front of their so called friend... Before the girl or guy say anything more, Sunny and Monty left as they didn't wanted to get caught by the girl...
'Bhaag gaye...' Guy said...
'How could they do that, mujhe laga woh meri sacchi dost ta...' Girl said...
'I m sorry but they were not...' Guy said...
Girl sit hiding her face on her palm, guy felt bad as he has seen how much disturb she was from the moment he had spot her with her so called friends... As his friend is also not coming and his basket were busy with Dr. Modi on a project, he thought to give company to the girl...
'Mind if I join you...' Guy asked...
'No, not at all... Thank you Bunty...' Girl said...
'Bunty???' He asked...
'Yeah friends call me Bubbly, so I thought Bunty would suits you...' Bubbly said...
Guy laugh hearing her comment, even she smiles seeing him laughing... He order drinks for them as he asked why was she looking so upset... She tell him she has come for her brother wedding and before that her boy friend ditch her for another girl... All this while, the guy was listening to her without saying a word...
'Don't worry, tumhe koi accha sa ladka miljaenge...' Guy said...
'Abhi ke liyeh tumse kaam chal sakte hai...' Bubbly said...
'As a friend right...' Guy said...
'Yes Bunty, kiya main tumse kuch puch sakti hoon...' Bubbly asked...
'Of course, anything friend...' Guy said...
'Tum bhi upset lag raha ta, maine dekha tum drink counter ke paas...
Kuch ladki ki chakkar hai kiya...' Bubbly asked...
'Yeah woh main jisse pyar karti hoon, woh kissi aur ke saat kaam mein busy hai... Mujhe nehi pasand kyunki mujhe pata chala jo woh log ke saat kaam kar raha hai uske niyat kuch tik nehi hai...' Guy said...
'Don't worry Bunty, woh tumse pyar karte toh zarur tumhare paas aayenge...' Bubbly said...
'Woh toh karti hai lekin woh kaam ke liyeh bhi mana nehi kar sakte...' Guy said...
'Means hum dono akele haina, so lets dance...' Bubbly said...
'Why not...' Guy said...
Guy and Bubbly move to the crowded dance floor, they started to move to the beat as they move their body to the tune... They forgot about their problem as they started to enjoy, guy thought to talk his girl but knowing she must be busy he thought to enjoy for sometimes, before leaving as he don't want to be rude to his new friend...
SOMEWHERE ELSE IN SAME CITY
Girl were trying a number but it keeps ringing without anyone answer it... She was walking around the terrace as she want for the person to answer her calls as she had been trying to call him from god knows how many hours... After talking to her senior, she make sure that she get widrew from the project as her partner didn't like her working with him...
'Pata nehi yeh Armaan kaha gaye, kahin bohot zyada naraz toh nehi hogaye...
Iske liyeh maine Dr. Modi se kehke project bhi chod diya, lekin ab pata nehi yeh kaha beit gaye muh bhulake..' Girl said...
As she again try to call his number, it was just keep ringing but no answer... Hearing some noises, she look to the entrance to see her friend coming holding his stomach, seeing his condition she understood he might have had food cook by her sister...
The moment she enter the house, somehow she escape from her sister as today she was in mood to cook her not so delicious and healthy foods which most would be burn... As her mother had inform her that today her sister was cooking, even she had rush out from the house saying she needs to go temple to offer prayer...
Girl help her friend and make him sit on the bench, she felt bad for his condition but knows why he was doing all this it was for just the sake of her sister whom he love unconditional but her sister wasn't able to see the love but take him for grand...
'Tum tik hona Atul...' Girl asked...
'Yeah I m fine Ridzy lekin tum yaha kiya kar rahe ho...' Atul asked...
'Woh main Armaan koh call karne ki koshish kar raha hoon... Pata nehi kaha hoga, I know naraz hoga lekin mujhe usse baat karni hai...' Riddhima said...
'Oh woh, woh pub mein hoga... Maine usko kaha mujhe waha milo, jo uske ghar ke paas haina... Lekin dekho, main yaha aagaya aur Anjali toh mujhe chodne ka naam hi nehi le rahi... Khana khila khila ke mere tabiyyat kharab hogaye...' Atul said..
'Should I get you some medicine...' Riddhima asked...
'Nehi Ridzy, main bas ghar jaakar tohda araam karlunga... Subah tak tik hojaenge...' Atul said...
'Are u sure, main tumhe ghar tak chod dun...' Riddhima asked..
'Nehi, main chala jaunga... Tum Armaan koh dhund raha hoon na, shayad woh abhi bhi waha hoga... Maine usko inform karna bhul gaye lekin main kardunga...' Atul said...
'You just take care okey Atul...' Riddhima said when he started to leave...
'Of course, don't worry...' Atul said as he left holding his stomach as it was very much upset...
Riddhima smile seeing his love towards her sister Anjali but she felt pity on him as well as Anjali was not taking his actions and words towards her seriously thinking one day he would also stop roaming around her if she didn't give reply to his words...
'Lagta hai mujhe hi jaakar Armaan se baat karna hoga, surprise deti hoon as he must be thinking I m still with Dr. Modi...' Riddhima said hugging her mobile and smiling thinking about Armaan expression...
PUB
Riddhima reach the pub and move inside to see the crowd, she look around to get a glimpse of Armaan and when she saw Armaan dacing with a girl, that too very closely she felt her blood boil as she didn't want him to dance that close with any girl other then her...
Riddhima saw the girl whisper something on Armaan ear and left the dance floor as Armaan stop dancing suddenly feeling his partner present around... Armaan look towards the entrance with his eyes closed and slowly open it to see his lover glaring at him...
Armaan smile showing his dimple, but seeing Riddhima look away and move to leave he make his way towards her before she exit... Riddhima who was thinking Armaan must be upset with her decision that she can't leave the project like that but when she saw him dancing with an unknown girl she couldn't help but felt jealous...
Riddhima knows how much Armaan loves her but still seeing him with another girl, she couldn't help but feel angry rising in her body... Here she came after talking with Dr. Modi and he was enjoying which she didn't expected from him...
'Basket...' Armaan said coming and holding her hand...
'Kiya hai... Jao, jaakar us ladki ke saat dance karo...' Riddhima said glaring at him...
'Basket, woh sirf ek friend hai... Jo yaha akele ti toh maine usko company diya...' Armaan said...
'Accha, sirf dost ti... Issiliyeh itni, itni close dance kar raha ta...' Riddhima asked with anger visible on her eyes...
Before Riddhima could asnwer, the girl came and spotting Armaan with some other girl she move towards them... Riddhima look at the girl who was wearing a short white dress with her hair left open...
'So Bunty, aagayi tumhara partner...' Girl asked...
'Bunty... Koan Bunty...???' Riddhima asked...
'Yeh Bunty, hi main Bubbly hoon...' Bubbly said...
'Really, Bunty Bubble...' Riddhima said glaring at Armaan...
'Don't misunderstand Ms...' Bubbly stop not knowing her name..
'Riddhima, Riddhima Gupta aur jo tum Bunty Bunty bol rahe ho na, Woh Armaan hai... Armaan Mallik...' Riddhima said...
'Wow, nice name Bunty but I will prefer to call him Bunty...' Bubbly said...
Riddhima glare at them and turn around showing her anger, Bubbly saw how Armaan face expression change and thought it would be better to clear things and left them alone...
'Dekho Riddhima, shayad tum soch rahi hoga hum dono akele kyun ho...
Actually main apne doston ke saat aayi ti but dono kamina nikla... Armaan ne mujhe bachaya un dono se jo mujhe drug dene wali ti meri drink mein milake... So we just recently become friends, maine request ki Armaan koh tohdi der rukhne ke liyeh issiliyeh woh rukh gaye... Not for a wrong reason...' Bubbly said...
Riddhima look at Armaan who nodded his head telling her she was telling the truth, seeing Riddhima expression Bubbly knows she was not sure if she was telling the truth or not... Bubbly knows, now Armaan would handle the situation with his basket, so she excuse letting them clear everything between them...
'Mera koi galat iradha nehi ta Basket, main toh yaha Champ se milne aaya ta...' Armaan said...
'I know tum yaha Atul se milne aaya hoon but Armaan, tum jaante ho na mujhe yeh bilkul bhi accha nehi lagti jab tum kissi aur ke itne paas jae toh...' Riddhima said lowering her head...
'Tumhe kaise pata main yaha Atul se milne aaya hoon...' Armaan asked moving close to her as they move a side not blocking the entrance...
'Woh Atul ghar par hai so usne bataya... I m sorry maine tum par shak kiya...' Riddhima said...
'Hmm U should be sorry, itni asaani se maafi nehi milenge...' Armaan said as he corner Riddhima hiding her from others...
'Armaan, kiya kar rahe ho...' Riddhima said suddenly feeling the closeness between them...
'Tumhe mera maafi chahiyeh na toh...' Armaan stop intentionally...
'Toh kiya...' Riddhima asked...
'Mere saat dance karo...' Armaan said pulling her to the dance floor...
Riddhima smile with Armaan action, he pull her towards him as they move to the beat... Now it was playing a romantic slow number as couples joins the dance floor... Armaan and Riddhima were lost in each other as they move to the tune... Bubbly was sitting near the bar, enjoying her drink while watching Armaan and Riddhima dancing...
After sometimes, they heard some noises from the bar area... Seeing Bubbly standing on the bar counter and dancing holding a drink, Armaan and Riddhima move to check why she was making a scene... When they saw her dancing without caring the guys eyeing her bare legs, Armaan and Riddhima understood she must be drunk...
'Yeh tumhare friend ne pee rakha hai...' Riddhima said near on Armaan ear...
'Pata nehi kyun but lagta hai kuch zyada hi pee liya...' Armaan said...
Armaan and Riddhima move towards her, manager were trying to bring her down as the bar waiter has complain about her not letting him makes drink for other customers...When Armaan and Riddhima move towards the bar, Manager turn to them when Armaan call Bubbly to get down...
'Aap jaante hai isko...' Manager asked...
'Ji Sir, I mean No Sir... I mean Ji Sir woh main usse aaj mila...' Armaan said...
'Dekhiyeh Mister, yeh bohot tamasha kar rahi hai yaha... Aap please isse lejaiyye...' Manager said...
'Main lejaun, main isko kaha lejaun...' Armaan asked...
'Armaan, tumhe pata hoga na woh kaha rehti hai...' Riddhima said...
'No Basket, as maine kaha aaj hi main inse mili hoon... I have no idea where she lived... Bas itna jaanta hoon woh apne bhai ke shaadi ke liyeh yaha aayi hai...' Armaan said...
'Ab kiya kare, hum pata kaise laga enge uski bhai ke baare mein... Dekho woh kitna zyada pee chuki hai..' Riddhima said when finally Bubbly sit on the counter drinking her drink in one go...
'Kuch toh socho Basket, main apne saat toh nehi le jaa sakta hoon na... Tujhe toh pata haina main akele rehta hoon...' Armaan said...
'Hmmm ek kaam karo tum bill pay kardo, tab tak main kuch sochti hoon aur isko bhi sambhalti hoon..' Riddhima said moving towards Bubbly...
Armaan left to settle the bills, Riddhima took hold of Bubbly who gave a smile to her and stood up without struggling to get out of her hold... She was too much drunk that she wasn't able to stand proper on her feet...
'Bubbly, tumhari ghar kaha hai...' Riddhima asked...
'Riddhima, hmmm main toh delhi mein rehti hoon lekin main yaha apne bhai ki shaadi ke liyeh aayi hoon...' Bubbly said...
'Tumhari bhai kaha rehta hai...' Riddhima asked...
'Woh toh mujhe nehi pata, maine abhi bhai koh inform nehi kiya main yaha aayi hoon...
Bhai ne mujhe aise dekhliya toh kiya hoga...' Bubbly said...
'Hmm yeh bhi sahi hai, ek kaam karte hai aaj raat tum mere saat chalo... Subah tum apne bhai koh call karke uske paas chali jaana...' Riddhima said...
'Haan, tum kitni acchi ho Riddhima... Armaan is a lucky guy, usse tum jaisi itni acchi ladki mili...'Bubbly said...
With so much difficulty, Riddhima bring her out and after a while Armaan also joins them... Armaan make them get an auto and follow them to Gupta house... He help Riddhima to take Bubbly inside and they safely reach to Riddhima room and make her sleep on Anjali bed as Anjali has gone to night duty...
Making sure that Bubbly was in deep slumber, Armaan and Riddhima move out to the garden before Armaan leave... Armaan took Riddhima in to a hug, hiding his face on her neck inhaling her scent... Riddhima also hide her face on his chest, knowing how much he must have miss her...
They stood like that for sometimes and than Armaan move out kissing her forehead... Riddhima smile seeing his love for her, she kiss on his cheek making his dimple dig inside his cheek... Riddhima care his dimple making it visible more, Armaan kiss her palm which was on his cheek...
'Ab mujhe chalna chahiyeh... Hum kal milte hai Sanjeevani mein, we can start planning for Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar wedding all over again...' Armaan said looking at her eyes...
'Haan, usse pehle mein tumhe kuch aur baat batani hai...' Riddhima said...
'Kiya baat hai Basket...' Armaan asked...
'Tumhe accha nehi lagta na main Dr. Modi ke saat kaam karun...' Riddhima said...
Armaan hold her hands keeping it close to his chest, he look at Riddhima as he left a deep breath knowing where this topic might lead to as he knows she was not ready to mixed their professional life with personal...
'Basket, main jaanta hoon main tumko lekar bohot zyada possessive hoon but its not I don't want u to work with him for the person he is... Jo tum log partnership kar rahe ho na, woh aadmi ki niyat tik nehi hai... Nikki ne mujhe bataya lekin I know u would be careful...' Armaan said...
'Ab tumhe chinta karne ki zarurat nehi hai Armaan kyunki maine Dr. Modi se baat karli... Woh mujhe is project se nikal diya hai, he said woh kissi aur koh hire karenge...' Riddhima said...
'Really???' Armaan asked with his eyes sparkling...
'Really...' Riddhima said touching her forehead against his...
'I love you Basket...' Armaan said smiling showing his both dimples...
'I love you too Armaan...' Riddhima said smiling seeing his million dollar smile...
'Waise is baar toh Dr. Modi ne bohot accha kiya...' Armaan said...
'Armaan, I don't think woh itna bhi bura hai... Shayad we should give him a chance to be out friend...' Riddhima said...
'Don't even think like that Basket, jis tarah se usne hum sabko pareshan kiya... Its not possible to forgive him so easily...' Armaan said...
'Common Armaan, don't act like a kid... Now everything is back to normal na, why we talk about it again and again when everything is all well...' Riddhima said...
'Fine, but it doesn't mean I will take him as a friend that soon...' Armaan said...
'I m not even asking you to make him ur friend now... Ab tum jao, bohot raaat hogaye...' Riddhima said pushing him...
'Haan haan, jaa raha hoon lekin main kuch bhula hoon...' Armaan said...
'Kiya...' Riddhima asked...
Armaan started to check his pockets to find the thing he lost, Riddhima stood watching him when suddenly he move close to her and peck her cheeks... Armaan run for his life knowing Riddhima would beat him for kissing her all of sudden, Riddhima smile seeing how Armaan run away and zoom out in his bike... She touch her cheek where Armaan just kiss and with a blush on her cheeks, she move inside to get ready to hit the bed as she have work to do the following day...
NEXT DAY
Bubbly was out from the house before everyone else wake up or Anjali come back from her night duty, Riddhima went to her morning jogging after making sure that no one has seen Bubbly as she don't like to lie her parents when she was not a friend of her...
Bubbly thank Riddhima for letting her stay in her house for the night, Riddhima help Bubbly to catch an auto early in the morning as most of the auto drivers wouldn't be starting their day... Finally when she was on an auto safely, they bid bye and Riddhima started her jogging...
Riddhima reach the basketball court soon but was surprise to see it empty... She was hoping to catch Armaan there before they left for Sanjeevani but seems like Armaan was catching his precious sleep this morning... Riddhima wait for 3o minutes, dribbling the ball and making several baskets but still there was no sign of Armaan...
When it was getting late, Riddhima jog back to her house to get ready... She was welcome by Padma, Riddhima kiss her cheek and move inside to meet her father who was enjoying his morning tea with newspaper... Riddhima wish him with a hug and kiss on Nani cheek on the way to her room to get ready for the day...
Soon Riddhima was having breakfast with her Parents and Nani, she left informing them she would be late as Riddhima told them that Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar ask her and Armaan to plan everything for their wedding... Shashank who has already know about it smile seeing the excited face of his princess, he knows it not about the planning she was happy but that she would get time to spend with Armaan...
SANJEEVANI
Armaan was sleeping on the bench on his stomach, his one hand and leg was hanging down while he was in deep slumber after the emergency early in the morning... He just got free an hour ago and seeing he has to report to work after an hour, he thought to catch some sleep in the mean time knowing no one would come to locker room that early...
Anjali who finished her duty came to put her stuff to the locker saw Armaan sleeping with his mouth wide open... She shake her head side to side seeing how innocent he look when truth was he is the biggest nautanki baaz in the gang... She thought to wake him up but before that she left to get some coffee for them so he could feel fresh by the time he joins his duty...
By the time Anjali came, Armaan was almost falling from the bench... She move close to him keeping the coffee cups near the empty bench... Then she move to him and tap his shoulder but Armaan wipe off and was back to his sleep...
'Armaan...' Anjali call him but he just make himself comfortable on the bench and went back to sleep...
'Armaan uto...' Anjali said shaking him a little...
'Sone de na basket...' Armaan said in his sleep...
Anjali smile hearing Armaan saying basket, she was sure he was dreaming about Riddhima... Anjali has seen the ignorance between Armaan and Riddhima, she knows it was about Riddhima working with Dr. Modi in new Sanjeevani project which Armaan or neither of the gang like to work...
'Dr. Shashank...' Anjali said loud enough to break Armaan sleep...
'What... Sorry Sir, Sorry woh main...' Armaan stood up rubbing his eyes as he try to balance himself...
Anjali laugh seeing how much Armaan still get scared of their father, its true he was crazily in love with her sister but how much he loves her, he scared the hell out when it comes to their father...
'OMG Armaan, u r too funny...' Anjali said laughing...
'Oh, its u only Anjie...' Armaan said sitting on the bench trying to control his fasting heartbeat...
'Sorry haan, but I thought it would be time u to get up... Just 30mins more for ur duty to start, I got coffee for us...' Anjali said...
'Oh, how nice of u Anjie... U r such a sweetheart...' Armaan said...
'Yeah yeah, sapne mein bhi sirf Basket koh pukaarte hai... Its not I m who is sweetest na...' Anjali said teasing him...
'Oh god, not u too Anjie...' Armaan said...
'Seems like everything is back to normal between u and Ridzy...' Anjali said seeing Armaan blush when she tease him...
'Yeah, Dr. Modi free her from the new Sanjeevani project...' Armaan said...
'Wow thats cool but what if he catch someone else from us...' Anjali said...
'Didn't seems like he would try again as he knows we wouldn't keep quiet if he hold one from the gang...' Armaan said...
'U seems very much sure about it...' Anjali asked...
'Kyunki Basket thinks he is not so bad guy u know...' Armaan said smiling...
'U and ur Basket... I don't know how come u both end up together...' Anjali said sipping her coffee...
'With god grace I guess...' Armaan said...
'Whatever, anyways have u both decide what u guys are going to do in Dr. Shubankar and Dr. Kriti wedding...' Anjali asked..
'Not yet, I will talk with Basket today in lunch time...' Armaan said..
'Guess it would be the best, let us know what we are need to do...' Anjali said...
'Sure, I guess I should fresh up before reporting...' Armaan said checking the time...
'yeah, Will see u in afternoon... Cya..' Anjali said as she took the empty coffee cups as she was makng her way out as she has to join in noon for her duty...
Armaan went to changing room to fresh up, it was the moment Riddhima enter and saw it was empty... She look around hoping that Armaan would be somewhere but not seeing him, she was wondering where he might have gone as Anjali just inform her that he was in the locker room...
'Yeh kaha chala gaya...' Riddhima move to her locker, taking out her lab coat and files...
'Hi Ridzy...' Muskaan crispy voice echo...
'Hi Muski, kaisi hai tu...' Riddhima asked...
'Main toh tik hoon, hero kaha hai... Aaj tu akeli kaise...' Muskaan ask moving to her locker...
'Suna hai subah subah Armaan ek emergency ke liyeh aaya ta... Kaha hai woh...' Nikki asked entering with Atul...
'Pata nehi, di ne toh kaha yehi hai but jab main aayi koi nehi ta...' Riddhima said...
'Champ, tu muh kyun banake rakka hai...' Rahul asked joining them...
'Yaar, tabiyyat tohda kharab hai...' Atul said...
'Hoga na, tumne di ne jo banayi woh sab toh khaliya...' Riddhima said...
'Awww, bechara Atul ka tummy... Iske pyar ke chakkar mein, iska tummy koh bhugatna padta hai...' Muskaan said moving to Atul and poking her finger on his stomach...
'Aise na kar Muski, mujhe ulti aajaenge... Raat se subah tak main baar baar wohi kar raha hoon...'Atul said...
'Kisne kaha tujhe saara khana khatam karne koh...' Rahul asked...
'Oye Khankajure, tujhe itna bhi samajh mein nehi aata uska Anjali ne kaha toh woh mana nehi kar sakte...' Muskaan said...
'Haan lekin uska bhi toh muh haina mana karne ke liyeh.. Aur tu mujhe aise faltu naam se mat bhula chudail kahin ki...' Rahul said...
'Tum, tumne mujhe chudail bola...' Muskaan said moving to face Rahul...
'Haan bola, kyunki yaha tumhari siwa yeh naam kissi aur koh suit nehi karti u know...' Rahul said facing Muskaan...
'Ab toh tu gaya gadha kahin ka...' Muskaan said holding his hair...
'Main gadha nehi tu chipkali...' Rahul said holding her hair as well...
'Guys stop it... Subah subah shuru hogaye tum dono...' Nikki said trying to seperate them...
Hearing the noises, Armaan came out knowing it must be the gang... He saw Riddhima in a yellow salwar suit, looking at the fighting couple while she was msging someone not trying to separate them... Armaan who came out to stop his friends, got lost in his basket...
Armaan move close to Riddhima as her back was towards the changing room... He peeped from her shoulder to check to whom she was msging has he knows she must have been trying to reach him as he hasn't inform her about the emergency early morning...
'Mujhe itna miss kar rahe ho...' Armaan whisper in her ears...
Riddhima who was busy in msging, got startled hearing Armaan voice so close to her... She turn around to bump Armaan, who hold her waist pulling her close to him... Riddhima hand rest on Armaan chest as soon they were lost in each other eyes forgetting about their friends...
Atul was helping Nikki to separate Muskaan and Rahul while they were unaware of Armaan coming out from changing room and was busy now romancing with his basket... After pulling each other hair for another good five minutes, Muskaan and Rahul let go when they heard the announcement to report nurse station for briefing...
Rahul and Muskaan correct their cloths and hair as both shoot dagger as if they might kill each other by their gaze... Nikki sit on the bench while Atul turn to go to his locker when he saw Armaan and Riddhima lost in each other... Atul tap Nikki shoulder who look at him and where he was looking...
Even she was surprise to see Armaan there as they haven't seen him coming but seeing how both were lost in each other, she smile evily as she look at Muskaan catching her attention and pointing towards Armaan Riddhima... Muskaan and Rahul also look at them and same evil smile form in Muskaan lips as she look at Nikki and nodding her head winking at her as they move to the love bird...
Atul and Rahul look at each other not understanding what the both girls were up to, but they knew something was cooking in their mind seeing their dare devil smile on their face... They both move on either side of Armaan Riddhima and next moment, Nikki show fingers counting to three and both shout near their ears making them parted from each other...
Armaan close his eyes due to sudden loud scream near his ear while Riddhima hide her ears with her hands... Muskaan and Nikki laugh out loudly seeing their expression, they were holding their stomach making both startled like that...
'It was not funny at all...' Armaan said...
'It was for us, right Niks...' Muskaan said...
'Yeah indeed it was...' Nikki said still laughing...
'Shut up u too...' Riddhima said smashing Nikki arm softly as she turn her attention to her locker...
Armaan also move to his locker to collect his lab coat and files, Muskaan and Nikki stood either side of Riddhima looking at her face as both smirk... Seeing them staring, Riddhima look at them asking what happen through her eyes...
'Lagta hai duriya khatam hogaye, sab kuch set haina dono ke beech...' Nikki asked...
'Matlab...' Riddhima asked...
'Yeh mat sochna humne dekha nehi kal jab Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar ne kaha tum dono koh saat mein milke unke shaadi plan karna hai... Jaise tum dono bahana bana raha ta, tab hum samajh gayi kuch toh baat hai...' Muskaan said...
'Aisa kuch nehi hai Muski, humhari beech sab tik hai...' Riddhima said...
'Thats good, ab tum dono fatafat saaer arrangement plan karo aur humein humhara kaam de dena... Phir toh humein is hospital ke kaam se chutkara milenge...' Muskaan said putting her hand on Riddhima shoulder...
'Muskaan, tujhe hospital ke kaam se itna dikkat hai toh main Dr. Kriti se bolke hamesha ke liyeh tujhe chut kara milwa sakta hoon...' Rahul said...
'Oye bandar, tujhe beech mein bola zaruri hai kiya...' Muskaan said...
'Okey chill u too, hum dono aaj baat karke finalized karta hoon... Evening mein sab Dr. Shubankar ke ghar pe humse milna...' Armaan said...
'Cool then... Lets go to briefing, nehi toh Dr. Kriti humein double duty de denge...' Nikki said...
'Aur mujh mein itni himmat nehi main doh doh duty karun...' Atul said...
'Champ, tumne dawai li na...' Armaan asked concern with his health...
'Haan bhai, le liya bas tik hojaunga...' Atul said...
Everyone left and Armaan look at Riddhima who was checking her file, he move close to her and kiss her cheeks making her look towards him with her eyebrow raise...
'Meet me in terrace in lunch time...' Armaan said winking at her...
'Terrace pe???' Riddhima asked...
'Yeah we need to discuss a wedding right.. So be on time...' Armaan said as he left with others...
Rest of the day, everyone was busy and Armaan Riddhima met in terrace in lunch time... They successfully plan everything in an hour and decide which work to give which one... As Dr. Kriti don't have any family, girls would be from her side while Boys would be from Dr. Shubankar side...
Remembering once Dr. Kriti mention that she wants to get married in a farmhouse, Armaan took the responsibility to find a farmhouse... Riddhima said its better to ask Dr. Kriti if she has look any farmhouse before they arrange for one so they agree to talk Dr. Kriti about it...
After deciding everything, Armaan left for house as his duty finish because he has been in hospital early due to emergency.. Riddhima remind others to meet in Dr. Shubankar house in evening after their duties... She also talk with Dr. Kriti about the farmhouse and she got to know already she has select on farmhouse...
Riddhim request her to send address to Armaan so he could go and check if its available as he was off duty now... Dr. Kriti happily did it and Riddhima also send him a msg asking to check the place before they join Dr. Shubankar for further discussion about the arrangements...
EVENING, SHUBANKAR HOUSE
Gang reach on time they decided to meet in Dr. Shubankar House... Navita, Shubankar daughter was very happy to have everyone... They order for food from out as they didn't want to waste time in cooking... As they sit discussing the arrangement, Dr. Shubankar came with a girl as he had gone to bring her when she call to him...
'Guys, meet my sister Pari...' Shubankar said as soon as they enter...
Armaan and Riddhima back was towards them as the others were sitting in front of them as they discuss about the arrangement... Hearing a cheerful hi, Armaan and Riddhima look at each other as they recognized the voice... They stood up and face the girl who was shaking hands with others...
'U guys can call me Bubbly...' Pari said...
'Bubbly...' Armaan and Riddhima said...
Hearing Armaan and Riddhima voice, Pari look towards them and seeing them there she was very happy... She moves to them and gave a hug to each smiling widely... Others were surprise to see Armaan and Riddhima already know this girl who is introduce as Dr. Shubankar sister...
'Bunty, Riddhima... What a pleasant surprise...' Pari said...
'It surely was...' Riddhima whisper not liking her hugging Armaan...
'Yes, A pleasant surprise Pari, I mean Bubbly...' Armaan said giving her a fake smile...
'Awww, how cute to know u remember me Bunty...' Pari said pinching Armaan cheek...
'Yeh Bunty koan hai???' Muskaan asked...
'Uska naam Bunty nehi hai, Armaan Mallik hai...' Riddhima said grinning her teeth...
'I know but like maine pehle kaha, I prefer to call him Bunty...
U know Bunty Bubbly movie...' Pari said smiling showing her dimple as well...
'okey guys, back to the plan... Now everyone knows that she is Bubbly, I mean Pari, Shubankar Sir Sister, can we go back to the discussion...' Armaan said seeing how Riddhima was boiling with anger seeing Pari hugging and pinching his cheeks...
Soon they were back to the discussion and by dinner time, they decide who will do what arrangement... As a week is left to Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar wedding, they also talk of getting off so they could do the arrangement... When Pari get to know that all the boys were on Shubankar side, she was very happy...
'Wow Bunty, means we would get more time to spend with each other na...' Pari said as they were getting the food...
'Yeah kinda, as I would be busy in work most of the time...' Armaan said...
'Don't worry Bunty, main hoon na tumhe help karne ke liyeh... Hum saat mein kaam karenge toh kaam bhi acche se hoga aur time pass bhi...' Pari said...
While Pari was trying to get close with Armaan and flirt, Riddhima was boiling seeing this... Other girls also saw Riddhima getting angry every moment Pari hold or get close to Armaan... Even they felt that Pair was chipku type as she was getting close to Armaan leaving other boys...
'Yaar Ridz, yeh Pari uff Bubbly.. Itna chipak kyun rahi hai hero se..' Muskaan said..
'Pata nehi, jab usko pata hai main Armaan ki partner hoon toh itni chipakne ki kiya zarurat hai...'Riddhima said...
'Dekh Ridzy, usse Armaan se dur rakhna hai toh tujhe Armaan koh humhari side laana hoga...'Anjali said...
'Anjali is right, nehi toh woh pura time Armaan ke aas paas ghumenge...' Nikki said...
'Ridzy, tu aisa kar... Jaa kar Hero koh bol woh humhare side pe hoga... Kyunki Dr. Kriti ke side pe koi toh ek ladka hona chahiyeh na...' Muskaan said...
'Haan aur hum Dr. Modi koh Shubankar Sir ke side bhej denge... Phir dekhna jab yeh Bubbly usse chipkenge, toh maza aayenge...' Nikki said...
'Right, chal Ridz tu Armaan se baat kar... Hum is Bubbly koh baaton mein busy rakhti hoon...'Anjali said...
As the girls decide, Riddhima left to talk with Armaan... She asked through her eyes Armaan to come to kitchen who smile evily thinking what must be going in his basket mind... Hiding from everyone eyes, Armaan went to the kitchen to see Riddhima near the fridge...
As Riddhima was done with food, she was taking water bottle from the fridge... That moment Armaan enter the kitchen and move close to her only to bump each other as Riddhima turn around...
'Kiya kar rahe ho Armaan...' Riddhima said balancing herself...
'Main kiya kar raha hoon, tumhe mujhe bhulaya aur khud pooch rahe ho kiya kar raha hoon main...' Armaan asked...
'I mean, accha chodo mujhe tumse ek important baat karni hai..' Riddhima said...
'Sirf baat karna hai ya kuch aur bhi...' Armaan said hugging her from behind as she stood pouring water to glass...
'Kitna besharam hona tum, mujhse sirf baat karni hai aur kuch nehi...' Riddhima said...
'Accha... Toh kiya baat karni hai mere basket koh...' Armaan asked nuzzling on her neck...
'Armaan, kiyun tang kar rahe ho...' Riddhima siad as she drink water and kept the empty glass on the counter...
'Kyunki mujhe karna tumhe tang...' Armaan said...
'Armaan, suno na...' Riddhima said...
Knowing it wouldn't be good to irritate her as he had seen how she was boiling few minutes ago seeing how Pari was trying to get close to him and flirt him... Armaan turn her around and hold her close to him by her waist while her hand was on his chest... Riddhima started to play with Armaan shirt button...
'Kiya huva basket... Kuch problem hai...' Armaan asked...
'Woh actually, humne abhi socha Dr. Kriti ki tarafse koi ladka nehi hai... Toh hum ladkiyon ne socha if u could...' Riddhima look at Armaan meeting her eyes with his...
'Sirf yehi baat hai ya, tumhe accha nehi laga jab Pari ne mere saat flirt ki aur mere paas aane ki koshish ki...' Armaan said...
Riddhima turn her face not able to meet her gaze with his as it was true, that was the real reason and it was just a way to request him to come on girls side... Armaan smile seeing Riddhima move her eyes away as she knows she can't hide anything from him once they look at each other eyes..
'Basket, I wouldn't mind u requesting without giving any reason... U know how much I love to spend my time with u, I always search for a way to be with u every single minute of my life...'Armaan said making she look at him...
'I know Armaan, but I don't want u to think I don't trust u with Pari around you...' Riddhima said lowering her eyes...
'I know u trust me, just a little insecure right...' Armaan said...
'U know, its not only u who are possessive about me... Even I m equally possessive about u...'Riddhima said...
'I am happy u accepted that... I will talk Dr. Shubankar, I know the reason is valid but still I have to tell him right...' Armaan said...
'I love you Armaan...' Riddhima said hugging him, hiding her face on his neck...
'I love u too Basket...' Armaan said rubbing her back and kiss her forehead...
DR. SHUBANKAR AND DR. KRITI WEDDING
Armaan and Riddhima were taking care of all the arrangement, others help them while they all enjoy every single function together other then mehendi and haldi... They celebrate Sangeet together while only Armaan was allowed to be in mehendi and haldi as he was from bride side...
Everyone was having a good time while Armaan and Riddhima also get time to spend with each other in between their work... Armaan didn't let a chance to romance with Riddhima, sometimes they get caught by the girls but sometimes they hide from them as Armaan manage to get kisses and hugs from Riddhima...
Finally, after the other functions it was the day Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar to tie the knot... From morning, Armaan and Riddhima were busy in their works... While Armaan was busy with the decorations, Riddhima was looking after the food department...
Anjali, Muskaan and Nikki were helping Dr. Kriti with her cloths and jewelry... Boys and Pari were with Shubankar as they were busy to welcome Dr. Kriti in Dr. Shubankar house after marriage complete... As they were going to get married in Farmhouse, Armaan has out mandap in the middle of the hall...
The wedding would be starting at 5 30 in evening, so everyone was moving here and there to complete the last minute preparation as now it was 3 in the evening... Anjali, Muskaan and Nikki were helping Dr. Kriti to get ready... Even Navita has come as she said she would be from bride side...
Girls were in the room to get ready while Armaan was checking the mandap as still workers were working to make it perfect... Riddhima who was checking the foods, came out to see Armaan working... She stood looking at him while he was so lost in work...
Feeling someone gaze, Armaan look around knowing it was none other then his basket... Riddhima smile when Armaan turn around looking at her side, Riddhima move to the mandap checking around to see how everything was perfect just like Dr. Kriti wants it to be...
'Kaisa laga...' Armaan asked..
'Perfect, Dr. Kriti bohot khush hogi...' Riddhima said...
'Hmm, tum chaaho toh humhare liyeh bhi mandap lagwa de...' Armaan asked holding her dupatta...
'Itni jaldi hai shaadi karne ki...' Riddhima asked..
'Tumhe jaldi nehi hai???' Armaan asked...
'Bilkul nehi...' Riddhima said winking at him and moving to leave...
Armaan wasn't in a mood to let go off her so easily, as now the workers has finished last minute touches they left when Armaan pay them... So taking the advantage that no one was around, Armaan pull her towards him as she came crashing on his chest...
Armaan put his hand around her waist, holding her close... Riddhima hands were resting on his chest as they got lost in each other eyes... Armaan hold her hand and kiss it softly making Riddhiam close her eyes as their face were inch away...
'Main chahta hoon tum jaldi Mrs. Riddhima Basket Armaan Mallik bane... Issiliyeh main soch raha hoon, jaldi sasurjee se baat karun humhare shaadi ke baare mein...' Armaan said moving his nose tip on Riddhima jawline making her breath got sharp...
'Armaan...' Riddhima whisper, feeling shiver run down her spine...
'Shhh, ab mujhe aur inthizaar nhi hoga Basket...' Armaan said caring her lower lip with his thumb...
Riddhima open her eyes, meeting it with his orbs to see pure deep love in his eyes for her... Armaan look at her parted lips and back to her eyes... Riddhima felt her heart miss a beat understanding what must be going on his mind...
'Main tumhari har ehsaas koh puri tarah mehsus karna chahta hoon... Tumhari is hoton koh mehsus karna chahta hoon, tumhari har touch koh mehsus karna chahta hoon...' Armaan said lost in her...
'Armaan main...' Riddhima couldn't say further as Armaan put his finger on her lips...
'Shhh, kuch mat kaho basket... Sirf haan kehdo...' Armaan said touching his forehead against her...
While Armaan and Riddhim were lost in each other, girls were waiting for Riddhim as Navita wants Riddhima to do her hair... They help Dr. Kriti to get ready, while Nikki make Navita change her dress... When finally Dr. Kriti was ready, they stood looking at her from head to toe...
'Kiya baat hai Dr. Kriti... Aap toh aaj Dr. Shubankar koh behosh karke rahenge...' Muskaan said...
'Why not Muski, Dr. Kriti aap bohot khubsurat lag rahe ho...' Anjali said...
'Lagni bhi chahiyeh, after all aaj uski shaadi hai right Dr. Kriti...' Nikki said...
While girls tease her, Dr. Kriti keeps blushing... Navita was sitting on bed looking at the door, Nikki saw this and went to her... Sitting next to her, Nikki hugs Navita making her look towards him...
'Aap tayyar hogayi...' Nikki asked...
'Nehi na Di, woh Riddhima Di ne kaha woh meri bhal banadenge... Lekin pata nehi kaha rehgaye..' Navita said...
'Abhi tak toh Ridzy koh aana chahiyeh...' Anjali said...
'Common girls, itni jaldi tohdina aayenge woh jab Hero humhare saat ek ghar pe hai...' Muskaan said...
'I m sure Armaan ne usko rokhliya hoga... Usko bas bahana chahiyeh apne basket koh rokhne ke liyeh...' Nikki said...
'Abhi tak kaam khatam nehi huva kiya...' Dr. Kriti asked...
'Don't worry Dr. Kriti, I m sure sab kaam perfect hoga ab... Its 4 now girls, Muski and Nikki tum dono jaa ke tayyar hojao... Main dekhti hoon Ridzy kaha rehgayi...' Anjali said moving out as Muskaan and Nikki started to debate who would use washroom first...
As expected, Anjali saw Armaan and Riddhima lost in each other arms... She took her mobile and capture their picture before moving to them to bring them back from their dream land... Anjali fake cough but it didn't bring them to sense so Anjali call their names...
'Ridzy, Armaan...' Anjali said a little louder...
'Yeah...' Armaan said as they break apart...
Riddhima move down from the mandap and stood next to Anjali not looking at Armaan or her... Armaan gave a innocent smile to which Anjali just roll her tongue to hide her smile as she keep a straight expression...
'Lagta hai Dad koh kehkar tum dono ke shaadi bhi ab jaldi karwana padega...' Anjali said...
'Di...' Riddhima said holding Anjali arm as her face flush...
'Aur nehi toh kiya, jab dekho dono ek dusre mein kho jate ho... Kyun Armaan, Dad se baat kare...'Anjali asked...
'Dad toh pehlese maan gaye hai, main toh kehta hoon aaj issi mandap mein woh kaam bhi kardete hai...' Armaan said...
'Armaan...' Riddhima glare at him knowing now Anjali would go and tell others, they would tease her all day...
'What Armaan, maine bhi dekha hai abhi Ridzy... Main toh jaldi dad ke kehke tum dono ki shaadi karwake rahungi...' Anjali said...
'U r the best Anjie... Main kabse basket koh bol raha hoon ab baat aage badai...' Armaan said...
'Haan tum dono ke harkar dekh ke toh ab mujhe bhi lagta hai der nehi karni chahiyeh...' Anjali said...
'Di, aisi koi baat nehi hai... Woh toh hum bas...' Riddhima stop not knowing what to say...
'Haan haan meri choti behen, maine dekha hai tum dono bas kaam kar rahi ti haina...
Chalo abhi ke liyeh chod rahi hoon kyunki Navita tumhari inthizaar kar rahi hai aur humein bhi tayyar hona hai...
Armaan, tum bhi jaldise tayyar hojao... Mehmaan bas aata hi hoga...' Anjali said...
'Yes Madam, main abhi tayyar hojata hoon...' Armaan said...
They all move to their respective rooms to get ready, before getting ready Riddhima went to make Navita hair and she was so happy with Riddhima work... When everyone got ready, finally Riddhima also went to get ready... After an hour, everyone was out in the hall welcoming the guest...
Groom and other boys along with Pari also came before it was time to exchange garland... Girls welcome then but after taking money from Dr. Shubankar... With lots of masti , teasing and fun the wedding was complete... Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar was very happy, specially Navita has no bond of happiness getting Dr. Kriti as her mother...
THREE DAYS LATER
It was very much hectic for everyone as they had been taking off from a week to prepare for Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar wedding... Once they were back on duty, they had so much to catch up so they work one double duty with just and hour break in between...
As Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar was on off, Dr. Modi took charge of the interns... To everyone surprise, he was behaving nice with all... He didn't give them a chance to make any plan as he was giving him the freedom in work they used to get from the beginning...
After working continuously for hours and days, from last three days today they get some free time for themselves... Everyone met in the locker room, but was too tired and sleepy due to not catching proper sleep from last 72 hours but they were glad that today, they could have at least more then 2 hours sleep as now they had catch the works...
'Chalo guys, will meet u tomorrow..' Anjali said as she collect her mobile and car keys..
'Thank god finally, we catch up everything... It feels like ages we haven't work like a dog...' Nikki said...
'Agree Nikki, ab toh bas mujhe sona hai... Meri puri body dard kar rahi hai...' Muskaan said...
'Same here, a long sleep will only make me feel better...' Rahul said...
'Haan lekin mujhe toh abhi ek kaam hai... Wish I could also sleep...' Armaan said...
'Aisa kiya kaam hai jo tum baad mein nehi, aaj hi karna hai...' Atul asked...
'Hai ek important kaam...' Armaan said winking at him...
'Armaan, maine suna hai Billy uncle aaya hai...' Riddhima said joining them...
'Yeah, even I heard from Dad... Kaam ke liyeh aaya hoga, Right Armaan...' Anjali asked as she smirk...
'Of course Anjie, tujhe toh pata haina Billy kitna busy rehta hai...' Armaan said smirking...
Riddhima saw the look Armaan and Anjali shared, she feels something were cooking in between them... As they had been so busy after Dr. Kriti and Dr. Shubankar wedding, it slip from Riddhima mind what Anjali has said in the wedding talking about Armaan and Riddhima wedding with Shashank...
'Lets go Ridzy, everyone must be waiting for us...' Anjali said...
'Everyone???' Riddhima asked rising her eyebrow...
'I mean Mom, Dad and Nani...' Anjali said covering up...
'oh yeah, lets go... I need a warm shower and hit the bed...' Riddhima said taking out her things...
'See ya Anjie...' Armaan said as Anjali bid bye to everyone...
'U mean see you tomorrow right Armaan...' Anjali said winking at him...
'Maybe not...' Armaan whisper...
'What???' Riddhima asked who move close to him...
'I mean I will miss you Basket...' Armaan said suddenly hugging Riddhima...
'Here we go...' Nikki said as she make her way to the exit...
'Let them say goodbye to each other, I m off...' Rahul said...
'Drop me off Rahul...' Muskaan said...
'Come champ, I will drop u as well...' Rahul said not waiting to go alone with Muskaan...
'Thanks Rahul...' Atul said biding bye to others joining them...
'I m waiting outside Ridzy...' Anjali said leaving Armaan and Riddhima...
Riddhima smash Armaan arm making him break the hug, he was smirking with his naughty smile on his lips... Riddhima rise her eye brow asking what was that smirk for, Armaan just kiss her cheek making Riddhima eyes got wide in shocked...
'Will meet u soon Basket...' Armaan said going to his locker to take out his mobile and keys...
'Tum toh aise bol rahe ho ki hum aaj raat milne wale ho...' Riddhima said checking her purse...
'U never know Basket, shayad hum mile...' Armaan said...
'What???' Riddhima said...
'What nehi poocho why... Ab tumhare dreams mein toh main hi milunga na tumhe...' Armaan said winking at her...
'Kuch bhi Armaan, zaruri nehi haina main hamesha tumhe sapne mein dekhun...' Riddhima said rolling her eyes...
'Not possible basket, I m sure u love me too much to have dream of anyone else...
Haan its possible if u dream of our kids...' Armaan said moving close to her...
Riddhima blush with his comment, to hide it she just whisper a 'bye' and left without giving Armaan a chance to tease her more seeing her blushing... Armaan just stood looking at Riddhima retiring figure, he knows she was blushing and only one work came out from his mouth imaginning Riddhima blushing face, 'Oye Hoyye...'
GUPTA HOUSE
Laughter was echoing in the hall as Anjali and Riddhima enter, they were surprise to hear Shashank laughing as another man laughter follow... They move inside to see Padma, Nani and Shashank sitting with a man back face towards them... Anjali knew who it was while Riddhima stood confused...
'Yeh loh, tumhare hone wali bahu bhi aagaye...' Shashank said seeing the girls...
'Bahu...' Riddhima asked as the man turn to face them...
'Hi Billy Uncle..' Anjali move forwards wishing him...
'Shanky, yeh tumhari badi beti haina... Main isko samjha samjha ke tak gaya hoon...
Kitni baar kaha hai isse, Uncle mat bhulao mujhe...' Billy said moving towards Riddhima side...
'Uncle, ab aap meri behen ki sasur hone wale ho toh main aapko uncle hi bhulaenge na...' Anjali said joining Shashank...
'Yeh baat toh tik hai, lekin phir bhi tu Billy hi bhulao mujhe.. Kyunki main toh Riddhima se nehi keh sakti hoon mujhe Billy bhulaun, after all mera hone wala bahu hai...' Billy said...
'Yeh toh tumne sahi kaha Billy, lekin uski behen hone ki baad Anjali bhi tumhe Billy nehi Uncle bhulana padega...' Shashank said...
'Fine Shanky, now let me meet by daughter in law...' Billy said facing Riddhima...
'Hi Uncle...' Riddhima said bending to take his blessing...
'Khush raho, aur betiyon ki jhaga waha nehi dil mein hota hai beti...' Billy said hugging her which Riddhima return...
'Chalo ab tum dono fresh hokar aajao... Armaan bhi aata hi hoga...' Padma said...
'Armaan... Kyun???' Riddhima asked...
'Woh sab baad mein, abhi tum dono jaakar fresh hojao... Hum saat mein dinner karenge...' Nani said...
Anjali and Riddhima left to fresh up, first Anjali fresh up while Riddhima try to call Armaan who wasn't answering her calls... When Anjali came out, Riddhima left to fresh up and by the time she came out Anjali has gone down to joins others...
Riddhima check her mobile and saw no return call or msg from Armaan, she was thinking now whats going in Armaan mind... Her back towards the door but when she heard lock sound, she turn around to see Armaan standing with his back resting on the door with hands cross on his chest...
'Armaan, yaha kiya kar rahe ho... Aur tum, tum meri calls kyun nehi uta rahi...' Riddhima asked...
'Basket, main toh apni girl friend se milne aaya hoon... Lekin lagta hai meri girl friend koh khushi nehi huvi mujhe yaha dekh ke...' Armaan said moving close to her...
'Woh sab tik hai but tum aur Billy uncle yaha aaj... Koi haas wajah...???' Riddhima asked...
'Haina, ab toh Dr. Kriti aur Dr. Shubankar ki shaadi bhi hogaye... Toh jaise Anjali ne kaha, ab toh hum dono ki baat bhi karna hi chahiyeh... Jaldi humhara intership khatam hone wala hai toh kyun na abhi se tayyari shuru karde...' Armaan said...
'Matlab woh log humhari...' Riddhima asked...
'Haan, kyun tum khush nehi ho...' Armaan asked pulling her close to him...
Riddhima look at him losing herself in him, Armaan look at her face as her cheeks color started to change... Riddhima started to struggle in his arms but Armaan make her stop as he pull her close to him holding her hand which was on his chest...
Soon both started to get lost in each other, Armaan who came to check if Riddhima was ready thought to tease her but now as he was too lost in her, he forgot why he came there first place... Armaan move his face close to her, moving his nose tip on her face making Riddhima close her eyes feeling his breath on her skin...
Their fingers were intertwined with each other, Armaan one hand around her waist digging his finger on her waist making Riddhima gap... Riddhima free hand fist on Armaan shirt as he move his face near her ears nuzzling on it... Before Armaan could lost himself completely in her, they heard Anjali voice calling them back to earth...
Armaan kiss her cheek pulling out, Riddhima stood with her eyes close as her breath was shallow due to the proximity... Controlling his fast heartbeat, he move towards the door to leave...
'Come soon, everyone is waiting...' Armaan said looking at Riddhima whose cheeks were flush...
Armaan left Riddhima to control her breath and heartbeat before joining them, he ruffle his hair for losing himself again on her... He was having so much difficult to control his desire but he knows it was not right time yet to take any step knowing Riddhima wouldn't give herself complete to him before they get tied in the knot called marriage...
Soon Riddhima also joins them and they proceed to have dinner while Shashank and Billy talking about work, Padma and Nani listening to them as Anjali joins them in between... Riddhima and Armaan was quiet, stealing gazes now and then knowing soon they would be talking about their wedding plans...
After dinner, they gather around the hall and soon marriage talk take place in between the elders... They decide to get them engage and get them married after their internship finished which was less then three months... Everyone agree and Padma announce that she will talk to Pandit about the dates...
Everyone was happy while Armaan and Riddhima was the happiest among them... Anjali tease them but let them alone as they move to the garden as elders started to talk further about their marriage plans... Armaan and Riddhima sit with each other, Riddhima holding Armaan arms as she rest her head on his shoulder and his head over her head...
Silent was speaking volume between them as they were living the moment and dreaming about their future together... Smile wasn't leaving from their face as they sit looking at the sky which has stars shinning but the moon hiding behind the clouds from the world... No words were needed as Armaan and Riddhima enjoy their present in silent...
4 MONTHS LATER
It was like the longest months of Armaan and Riddhima life, they got engage 3 MONTHS ago and soon they were preparing themselves to be senior doctors... Everyone was trying their best to pass as they have dream to become best doctors in Sanjeevani hospital...
Riddhima and Armaan loves keep blossoming every day, Rahul and Muskaan fights never get reduce while Anjali started to accept Atul love for her... Even something was cooking between Nikki and Dr. Modi as they started to spend much time working with each other...
From last two months, they had been very busy preparing for the papers as well as handling the duties... No one was getting time to spend with each other, they hardly come across each other in hospital as they always be busy in one work or other...
They only see each other in their exam time but they didn't get a moment to talk as after exam they would rush to home or resume the duty... After 2 months, finally their exam ends... They get a chance to breath relief but another tension occupied in their mind as they wait for the result...
Soon the tension was cover by the preparation of Armaan and Riddhima wedding... As they decide, they got a date from another month after their exam as Armaan and Riddhima wedding... From the day they got engage, Padma and Nani had been preparing for Riddhima marriage but still Riddhima needs to shop for herself...
Armaan also had been arranging everything by Riddhima wish but he didn't let Riddhima know anything as he wants to give her surprise... He was very happy as in a month, Riddhima would be his for rest of their life... He was counting the days as he took everyone to shopping and they spend time with each other...
Also Armaan took Riddhima out on dates before they got busy with exam but from last two months they weren't able to due to Riddhima strict schedule to give all her attention to studies and work, after two whole months Armaan got a chance to take her out...
To their bad luck, gang heard Armaan asking Riddhima for a dinner date... As even they got free from exam, they thought it would be best to spend time together... Armaan knows he has to hold his date for another day because he knows their friends wouldn't let them spend time alone unless they tag them along...
So after their exam finished, they make plan to go clubbing and enjoy to the fullest before they get busy with Armaan and Riddhima wedding preparation... As the next day was Sunday, they decide to go club on Saturday night... Everyone met outside the club and soon they were having a blast as Armaan got a chance to romance with his basket as well...
Nikki were sitting alone as she has no partner, she was busy in her mobile as she watch others dancing... Several time Atul and Armaan came to take her to the dance floor but she refused as she stick with her mobile... They all had been seeing the change in Nikki behavior, but no one dare to ask anything...
Finally, Riddhima thought to talk Nikki knowing maybe she was not comfortable with talking anyone else about her feelings... So Riddhima excuse and move to Nikki as Armaan joins other as they burn the floor together...
'Kiya huva Nikki, yaha akele kyun beite ho...' Riddhima asked...
'Aisa kuch nehi hai Riddhima... Main toh bas aise...' Nikki said not able to tell the real reason...
'Missing someone special...' Riddhima asked...
'Aisa kuch nehi hai Riddhima...' Nikki said not looking at her...
'U know, main kuch din se dekh rahi hoon... Not only me, everyone has seen the change in you Nikki...' Riddhima said...
'Is that so much obvious???' Nikki asked...
'Maybe, but I have seen change on u as well as Dr. Modi... See Nikki, u can always tell me if you have anything to share... U know I don't judge anyone by look...' Riddhima said...
'I think it would be better to keep it myself... U know how much Armaan means to me, I m happy he got the love of his life but...' Nikki was cut by her...
'But u need someone who would take care of u right... I can understand, so is he Dr. Modi...'Riddhima asked...
Nikki look towards Riddhima and lower her head not able to express by words... Riddhima who has been seeing how Dr. Modi and Nikki stealing gazes from last few months, how they are lost in each other thinking no one catch them, today finally she got the answer from Nikki...
'I m so happy for you, so u r the reason why that Akdu Modi has changed to a soft guy...' Riddhima said hugging her...
'I m not sure but he surely loves me a lot Riddhima but I m afraid to let this out to Armaan not knowing how he would take it...' Nikki said...
'Nikki, its ur life... Your decision with whom u want to spend your life... Armaan is not ur guardian, just a friend who surely care for you , love u but he is ready to start a new life... I m sure he would understand...' Riddhima said...
'If its not Dr. Modi, I would surely had understand but not anymore...' Voice interrupt them making them look towards the person...
Armaan was standing with a not so happy face hearing the conversation... Seeing both busy talking as Riddhima move saying she would bring Nikki, so Armaan thought to check why she was taking so much time... Armaan has surely heard Nikki confessing how much Dr. Modi loves her...
Nikki and Riddhima stood up seeing Armaan, Armaan was feeling so furious he just left the club... Riddhima and Nikki follow him out, soon Riddhima catch him new the his car...
'Armaan, listen to me...' Riddhima said...
'No Riddhima... How can u say I don't have any right to speak on her decision...' Armaan said...
'Armaan, because u r not her parents or guardian and thats true...' Riddhima said...
'Fine, but I do have right speaking being her friend right...' Armaan said...
'Of course u have Armaan, but u can't judge anyone just because he wasn't good with us before...U have seen change in Dr. Modi by self na...' Riddhima said...
'Yes I have but he is not capable to be life partner of anyone, not even my best friend...' Armaan said...
'But I accept him as my life partner Armaan, I love him and he loves me...' Nikki said...
'Nikki, please think over it... Its not a joke, what u know about that man...' Armaan asked...
'I know enough of that man to make him as my life partner Armaan, what u see about him is not he is like inside...' Nikki said..
'Nikki tum...' Armaan was cut by Nikki...
'No Armaan, enough now... U can't take decision of my life... U r my friend, u have right on speaking behalf me but u have to respect my decision as well... Think about my happiness at least before thinking once u think we hate him... Just for my sake..' Nikki said leaving them and leaving the club knowing it would be the best for now...
Armaan just stood thinking what Nikki said, she never talk to him like that but seeing her defending Dr. Modi, he felt that how much he must mean to him... Riddhima look at Armaan, knowing he would need time to think about it... She put her hand on his shoulder, making him look towards him...
'I know its difficult to believe but ur best friend is in love... Like u fight for our love, today she is fighting for her love... Armaan, please think about this... Does ur anger towards Dr. Modi means much more then the happiness of ur best friend???' Riddhima said again making Armaan go back to his thoughts...
Riddhima left Armaan to calm himself, she joins others who asked where was Nikki and Armaan... Riddhima make an excuse for Nikki saying she got a call from work so she left while Armaan went to drop her... They want for Armaan, who joins after good 30 minutes, as it was getting late they bid bye and left to their respective house...
2 WEEKS LATER
Days pass just like winds, everyone was busy shopping and helping with decoration in Gupta House as they started for Armaan and Riddhima marraige.. Handling the duties as well as helping with decoration, everyone was having a good time as after Sapna, Armaan and Riddhima would tie knot from their gang...
It was just left a week to start the functions and they still have to finished shopping for the big day... Armaan and Riddhima also haven't choose their cloths for that day so they decide to shop on a off day so others also could accompany them... So as decide, before the function start they was to meet in Mall today for final shopping...
In last two weeks, Armaan has accepted Nikki relation with Dr. Modi as they confess in front of the gang giving them a shocked leaving Riddhima and Armaan as they known about it before... Armaan warn Dr. Modi before accepting him saying if he ever hurt his friend, he would break him to pieces...
As now Dr. Modi was in relation with Nikki, he joins them in any get together they arrange... All get to know Dr. Modi and soon they found out how good person he was... If he was rude with them earlier, it was just due to work nothing personal... So now, everyone was accepting him as a group member and Dr. Modi was happy to be a part of their group...
Now gang were in the Mall but, at last minute Riddhima got a call from Hospital due to her patient getting critical... Riddhima left saying she would meet them in an hour, Armaan said he would pick her but Riddhima deny him asking him to give company to others and select sherwani for him in mean time...
Armaan was feeling restless the moment Riddhima left, don't know why but he feel that something bad was going to happen that will change his life... Everyone went back to their shopping but Armaan mind was somewhere else... He keeps checking his mobile every then and now waiting for Riddhima msg or call...
On the other side, after attending her patient Riddhima wait for another hour to check his condition... When the patient was get stable, Riddhima give instruction to the nurse asking to observe him for another two hours and inform immidiately if anything happen...
Knowing Armaan must be worried and thinking about her, she msg him before leaving... She was thinking about the moment she had spend with her from the first day to till today... Blush was on her face as she remember those close moment she share with him every corner of the hospital as well in several other places...
Riddhima was so lost in her moment with Armaan, she didn't see the track which was coming from the other direction... Even she didn't hear the horn unless it came really close to her car, before Riddhima could press the break, everything went black around her as she felt she was thrown with the car to the side of the road...
Riddhima try to move but before she knows anything, everything went black... She was lifeless, as blood zoom out from her head and cuts which was on her hands and legs... Only one name came out from her mouth and it was none other than 'Armaan...'
MALL
Armaan relax a bit getting a msg from Riddhima informing that she would reach in 20mins time... He try to keep himself busy but still don't know why he was feeling a bit restless... Armaan try not to think about anything bad, soon he started to check sherwani for his wedding...
Don't know why but Armaan felt that Riddhima call his name... Its been more then 20 minutes now, but Riddhima hasn't reach yet... Armaan thought to check on her but then forget it knowing she would get irritate and he don't want to make her mood off just beause of his stupidness...
Soon they were done shopping for the guys, so they move to ladies department... Everyone else got busy helping their partners while Armaan stood watching around as he wait for Riddhima... Anjali saw him waiting for Riddhima, so she move towards him asking what Riddhima said...
'20 minute kaha, lekin ab toh 45 mins hogaye..' Armaan said worriedly..
'Haan toh tum call karke poocho kaha tak pocha hai...' Anjali said...
'Woh naraz hogayi toh...' Armaan asked...
'Badi fikar horahi hai apne hone wali biwi ki... Pehle toh naraz karne mein kabhi moka nehi chodte... Lagta hai abhi se sudar gaya tu...' Anjali tease him...
'Nehi aisi baat nehi hai... Mujhe toh maza aata hai usko irritate karne mein...
Jab woh gusse se laal hojate hai, bohot cute lagta hai...' Armaan said dreamily...
'Back to earth Armaan Mallik, abhi sapno ke dhuniya se baahar aajao aur dekho tumhara basket kaha rehgayi...' Anjali said...
'Okey, gussa hogayi toh main bolungi tumne force ki...' Armaan said..
'Yeah right whatever Armaan just check on her...' Anjali said going back to check the cloths...
Armaan move out as he dial Riddhima number, thinking to tease her a bit Armaan was waiting for her to pick up the call... When the call got cut after ringing several times, Armaan again dial but same happen... Now Armaan was getting scared for fifth time when Riddhima didn't pick up the call, Armaan rush inside to inform them...
Soon all were out from the mall, they took their cars and started to search for Riddhima as they check calling Padma if she reach home or not... As Armaan call hospital to check she left or not, nurse inform she has left an hour ago...
As they can go to Mall in three roads, Rahul took one road with Atull, Anjal and Muskaan with her,
Abhi took other road with Nikki and Armaan took the one left... As Armaan took the main road, he saw a crowd not far from the Mall... Armaan felt his heartbeat raise as he got out from the car and move to the crowd...
Pushing people away, he move close to see a car up side down... Armaan recognized it was Riddhima car, he move and check the driving seat to see Riddhima unconscious... Without waiting for anyone to help him, Armaan try to open the door but it was stuck...
With difficulty, Armaan open the door and pull Riddhima out from the car, taking her in his arms... Armaan in form a person that if police came, inform them he is taking her to Sanjeevani hospital... Some help Armaan to get Riddhima purse as they search for her belonging...
Soon Armaan zoom off with Riddhima on his car back seat as he keeps calling her name but Riddhima laid unconscious... Armaan call Rahul and inform him to reach Sanjeevani as soon as possible... Also he asked inform the Gupta's as Riddhima was in bad condition...
