Chapter 51

Shaleen, Nisha and raj had their flight scheduled in few hours to return to Delhi. Shaleen read the today's newspaper and the front page news had given their own spin off to the details from last night's event.

Heading mentioned "Shaleen Sabarwal: New Rising Star"
Subheading saying "Used borther's name to reach to masses"

Shaleen walks down the corridor with the news paper in his hand. He knocks on the door and Raj answers it. Shaleen hands him the paper and asks "What is all this dad? Kya yeh sab aapne kiya hai?"

Raj little confused, reads the paper.

Shaleen asks again "Kya media se aapne kaha tha ki opening performance rahul dega? Kyunki jahan tak mujhe pata hai, aapki permission ke bina iss se pehle kabhi bhi rahul ka naam use nahi kiya gaya hai. To phir iss event ke promotion mein rahul ka naam kaise use kiya gaya?"

Raj~ "Shaleen calm down. Kya hua agar rahul ka naam use bhi kar liya to, wo tumhara bhai hai. Aur agar uske naam ki wajah se tumhe jyada logo tak pahauchne mein madad milti hai to kya burai hai?"

Shaleen~ "Aapko isme koi burai nahi dikhti hogi dad. Par mujhe pata hai ki iss sabse mere career par kya asar padega. Har koi mujhe rahul se compare karta hai... mujhse rahul ki tarah ka performance expect karta hai. I m not Rahul! Mujhe apni ek alag pehchan chahiye, jo aapki ya rahul ki parchayi ke neeche chupi hui na lage. Aap jaante hai ki agar main acha nahi karta hoon to log kya kahenge... yahi ki Shaleen sabarwal apni family legacy ka part nahi ban sakta. Aur agar main acha karta hoon... to kahenge ki yeh hunar to uske khoon mein hai. Mera apna to jaise kuch hai hi nahi, bas sab log mere sabarwal family se related hone ko credit dete hai. Iss ke bare mein kya kahenge aap dad?

Raj puts his hand on shaleen's shoulder and says "I think tum thoda over-react kar raho ho Shaleen. Yeh koi bahaut badi baat nahi hai. Jab rahul ne apna career suru kiya tha, tab usne bhi aise hi halaat dekhe the. Tumhe kya lagta hai, kya usko logo ne mujhse compare nahi kiya tha? Kiya tha. Aur uske baad bhi rahul successful hua... mujhse bhi bada singer bana."

Shaleen shakes his hand off "Kyunki wo rahul hai... aapke teen beto mein se sabse acha. Yahi kaha tha na aapne jab ek-ek kar hum nau saal ke hue aur aapne humko training dene ka decide kiya tha? Aapne theek yahi kaha tha. Aur yeh aapke liya na sahi... par mere liye bahaut badi baat hai kyunki mujhe musical industry mein apni ek alag pehchan banani hai... jisme already rahul ka itna bada naam hai."

Raj~ "To kya karna chahte ho tum? Apna naam badloge ya phir ghar chod kar kisi nayi jagah par apni nayi pehchan banane ki koshish karoge? Peechli baar jab tumne koshish ki thi, tab agar tumhe yaad ho to tum buri tarah se nakamyaab hue the. Par jis naam se tumhe itni takleef hai, uski wajah se tum uss baat ko peeche chod kar apna career start kar sakte ho. Tumhe to khush hona chahiye ki tum sabarwal khandaan mein paida hue ho, jiski log sapno mein bhi sirf tamanna hi karte hai."

Shaleen~ "Iska matlab hai ki aap iss baat se inkaar nahi karte ki aapka, event promotion ke liye rahul ka naam use karne mein koi haanth nahi hai? Aur mujhe pehli baar laga tha ki aapko meri fikar hai, mere talent par bharosa hai. Thanks dad, mujhe galat sabit karne ke liye." Saying that Shaleen leaves with a disappointed scowl.

Raj had thought that whatever happened with or without his concent was for the best but Shaleen does not approve of this, whatsoever. As the day passes, these tensions between raj and Shaleen will seem to deepen as the event discussions will twist and spice up the event details, whether true or not. Shaleen will also question raj's intentions to stop these, if and when he does them... as these means bad publicity for Shaleen.

Sonali and payal laughs to have caught rahul maanvi together in bathroom. Sonali says "Don't worry about us. You two can continue as if we know nothing. I just wanted to discuss something with maanvi but it can wait. So carry on."

Then Sonali and payal leaves these two to give them their privacy again. Maanvi feels awkward to be caught like this.

Maanvi~ "Rahul... pata nahi ab payal aur mommy ji kya sochenge humare bare mein? Sab tumhari galti hai! Ab main sabse kya kahoongi?"

Rahul enjoys the way maanvi is feeling and talking about it. "Sochne do jo sochenge. Mujhe koi problem nahi hai."

Maanvi~ "Tumhe koi problem nahi hogi par mujhe hai. Isliye please mujhe jaane do, nahi to sabko pata chal jayega. Please rahul." She pleaded.

Rahul~ "Ab tak to sabko pata chal hi gaya hoga, to ab kyun darna maanvi? Main to kehta hoon ki jiska ilzaam laga hai wo gunah bhi kar hi liya jaaye." He looks at her intensely.

Maanvi tries to get away but gasps as rahul pulls her even closer, driving her crazy with his dove eyes. In order to get away, maanvi immediately thinks of an excuse.

Maanvi~ "Rahul chodo mujhe nahi to main tumhara special birthday gift nahi dungi." She says it all rapidly and in one breath.

Rahul freeze for a moment and then slowly lets her go. "Theek hai. Abhi ke liye to main tumhe jaane dunga par mujhse bach kar kahan jaogi tum. Abhi nahi to phir kabhi tum mere haanth mein zaroor aogi maanvi. Tab main tumko itni aasani se nahi chodunga." He leaves with a grin on his face.

Maanvi finally takes a deep breath and tries to ease her heartbeats but everytime she thinks of these moments with rahul, her heartbeats just rise up again.

Rahul goes to payal's room where she was waiting for him to give him his gift. As soon as rahul enters her room, Nikhil comes running from behind calling out for his rahul bhai. Hearing nikhil's voice, payal tries to hurry and hand over the gift to rahul as well. Rahul is simply left standing there as payal and Nikhil enters in "Me first, me first" conversation.

Meanwhile maanvi reaches downstairs to meet dadi ji and Sonali who wanted to catch her up on some small details for today's plans. Sonali inquires how maanvi plans to keep rahul occupied away from the mansion while they all make the preparation for the party. On that, maanvi informs them of her plans of a date she had planned which dadi ji and Sonali both approved. Dadi ji knew rahul had made some plan as well which she had promised she wont reveal to anyone. Thus it was a long day ahead for rahul maanvi.

Checking up on few things, maanvi heads to the room to look for rahul. Rahul was just playing on with some tunes on his guitar and maanvi comes looking for him.

Rahul gets happy "Arre wah, meri to kismet hi khul gayi jo tum mujhe dhoond rahi ho."

Maanvi~ "Mazak mat karo rahul. Abhi chalo mere saath."

Rahul~ "Chalo? Kahan?"

Maanvi grabs his hand and pulls him "Bas chalo rahul."

They go to the car and rahul sits in driving seat. Rahul asks maanvi "Ab batao bhi kahan jana hai? Nahi to main drive kaise karoonga?"

Maanvi~ "Tum sirf drive karo, rasta main bataungi."

Rahul~ "Secretive? Kya baat hai, aaj lagta hai kuch special plan kiya hai."

They smile and drive away. Maanvi keeps telling him directions and they head to city outskirts. They take route through a side lane, then stops near a dense tree area. Maanvi leads rahul down through the hedge and into the dense area.

Rahul~ "Yeh mujhe kahan le ja rahi ho maanvi?"

Maanvi~ "Khud hi dekh lena."

Soon they come out in the clearing. It's a beautiful place with a seasonal waterfall, butterflies, birds singing in the trees, rabbits and squirrels playing around... this place opens only in rainy season. The place had a table setup and a guy in white dress like a waiter's, ready to assist them.

Rahul~ "Mera idea chori kiya maanvi? Waise tumhe yeh jagah kaise mili?"

Maanvi~ "Tumhara idea chori nahi kiya rahul. Main apni ek special place share karna chahti thi. To mujhe laga ki tumhare birthday se better timing ho hi nahi sakti. Yeh jagah sirf barish me hi achi lagti hai. Apni friends ke saath trip par, jab raste me humari bus kharab hui thi, tab yeh jagah mujhe mili thi. Aaj mommy ji ne help ki sab preparations karne me. So this is my birthday gift to you."

Rahul~ "Meri maanvi ki special place par date... nice gift. I m impressed."

Maanvi smiles seeing rahul happy. They take the seats at the table and enjoy some of rahul's favourite continental food. There was also some arrangements for romantic music for dancing. They dance together... rahul plucks a flower from nearby bush and puts it in maanvi's hairs. It was a great lunch date for rahul maanvi.

Neha heads towards the flight terminal after security check-in at the airport. The runs into Shaleen and Nisha around the same terminal. They come to know that these four; raj, Shaleen, Nisha and neha, are travelling in same flight to delhi.

Neha mentions to Shaleen that she wishes to discuss something with him and Shaleen invites her to sabarwal mansion today evening. When neha agres to the offer, Nisha seemed a little insecure feeling that neha has been getting little too friendly with Shaleen ever since they met at the event venue. Neha and Shaleen were good friends back in the days, but Nisha still didn't liked the idea of having her around.

The tensions between raj and Shaleen continues. Neha felt the tension and suspects that it may have something to do with audience believing that rahul would be part of the event. Now she was even more eager to tell Shaleen about the offer company is planning to make to him.

After the lunch date, rahul maanvi are back in the car. They are driving back towards the city. When rahul turns the car towards downtown, maanvi inquires.

Maanvi~ "Rahul, hum kahan ja rahe hain?"

Rahul~ "Tum mujhe ek date par le kar gayi, ab meri bari."

Maanvi~ "Ek din me do-do date? Aisa kaun karta hai?"

Rahul~ "Mujhe kya pata tha ki tum gift ke naam par mujhe kidnap karke ek date par le kar jaogi."

Maanvi~ "Agar drive tum kar rahe ho to maine kaise kidnap kiya? Kidnap karne ke liye to car mujhe drive karni padti na? Par mujhe car drive karni nahi aati." She makes innocent face.

Rahul~ "Kyun? Movies me nahi dekha kya kabhi gun point par kidnapper ko victim se drive karate hue? Mana ki tumhare pass gun nahi hai, par phir bhi bina bataye pata nahi kahan le ja rahi thi."

Maanvi~ "Excuse me, for your kind information usko surprise kehte hain. Tum to na rahul... iss layak hi nahi ho ki main tumhe koi surprise doon. Mere surprise ki koi kadar hi nahi hai tumko. Jao, aage se main tumhe kabhi koi surprise nahi doongi. Ek boring sa gift de dungi sabki tarah. Uss se hi khush rehna tum." She says it so cutely in an arguing tone.

Rahul~ "To maanvi ji, ab aap mujhse mere birthday par ladai bhi karengi?"

Maanvi~ "Maine koi ladai shuru nahi ki. Tumko bas mera baat baat par mazaak banane me maza aata hai. To agar tumko lagta hai ki main ladai kar rahi hoon to theek hai, wahi sahi. Tum uske hi layak ho."

Rahul~ "Acha baba, sorry. Nahi karoonga mazaak, ok? Par ek baat to kehni padegi, tum jab iss tarah se mujhse roothti ho... to kitni pyari lagti ho, kasam se. Aur tumhara surprise bhi bahaut acha tha. Best birthday gift ever!"

Maanvi looks at him "Sachi?"

Rahul~ "Bulkul sachi. Ab maanvi mere liye itna acha surprise plan kare aur mujhe acha na lage... aisa to ho hi nahi sakta."

Maanvi~ "Tum mujhe khush karne ke liye to nahi keh rahe ho na?"

Rahul~ "Mere chehre se tumko lagta hai ki mujhe tumhara surprise acha nahi laga?"

They both smiles ever so cutely and heads to the place where rahul had planned up their next date.

Chapter 52

Raj, Shaleen and Nisha arrives at sabarwal mansion. They stayed quiet ever since they left the hotel but now their tension was about to turn into an argument. Chotu and driver brings in their bags. Sonali comes down to greet them. As Sonali reaches out to Shaleen to congratulate on his great performance, Shaleen thanks her with a fake smile.

Sonali~ "Kya hua Shaleen? You are looking upset."

Shaleen~ "Yeh aap apne pati se poochiye ki kya hua. Inko humesha yahi lagta hai ki main kuch kar hi nahi sakta. Isliye yeh humesha wahi karte hain jo inko theek lagta hai."

By this time dada ji and dadi ji also comes down in the hall.

Dada ji~ "Raj, kya hua? Kya baat hai?"

Nisha~ "Dad kya kahenge... media aur event partners sab kuch to keh chuke hai. Har jagah bas yahi sunne ko mil raha hai ki Shaleen ne apne bhai ka naam use kiya... audience ko attract karne ke liye. Aur jab Shaleen ne dad se poocha to dad iss baat se deny bhi nahi kiya ki unhone aisa kuch nahi karvaya. Iss sab se to yahi prove hota hai na ki dad Shaleen ki abilities par trust nahi karte."

Sonali~ "Raj... Kya yeh sach hai?"

Dada ji~ "Par raj puttar, tumne to kaha tha ki yeh event pehle se hi bahaut bada stage hoga Shaleen ke liye to phir iss sab ki zaroorat kyun padi?"

Nisha~ "Mujhe to lagta hai ki dad chahte hi nahi the ki shaleen kabhi rahul ki tarah singer ban paye. Shaleen ko event me entry dilwana sirf ek drama tha yeh show karne ke liye ki wo Shaleen ki bhi care karte hain. Dad ne socha hoga ki Shaleen apna performance bigad dega aur uske baad phir kabhi dobara singing career mein enter karne ki sochega bhi nahi. Aur agar sochega bhi to log kabhi usko karne nahi denge. Right dad?"

Nisha's words acted like a fuel for the fire. Raj's silence didn't help him much either. Raj stayed silent as he couldn't say that this all happened without his knowledge as anything like this had never happened before. The situation did turned out to look like raj orchestrated the leak of rahul's name so even if raj tries to prove his innocence, no one will believe him. Also, Raj didn't want to show to anyone that he and rahul have been getting distant lately.

Raj~ "Aisa kuch bhi nahi hai. Mujhe Shaleen ki chinta hai. Aur ab jo ho gaya uss par iss tarah behais karne ka kya matlab hai? Sab acha hi hua na, to phir isme naraaz hone ki kya baat hai? Waise bhi, abhi main thaka hua hoon. Main bhi aaram karta hoon, Shaleen aur Nisha ko bhi araam karna chahiye. Hum iske bare mein baad mein discuss karenge. Aaj rahul ka birthday hai, to please iss sab ke baare mein abhi koi kuch nahi kahega. Rahul ko yeh sab bata kar usko pareshan karne ki zaroorat nahi hai. Main aur Shaleen isko sort karlenge." Declared raj and went up in his room.

Nisha wonders where rahul and maanvi are, as they should know about what is happening in sabarwal mansion. Nisha tries to call rahul but his phone keeps ringing without any response. Nisha tries maanvi's phone as well but same no response.

Payal comes from behind and taps on nisha's shoulder. "Making calls to rahul bhai and maanvi bhabhi?"

Nisha~ "Rahul and maanvi are part of this family or not? They should know what is going on."

Payal~ "Didn't you hear what everyone said? No one will mention this to rahul bhai or maanvi bhabhi... at least not today. Its rahul bhai's birthday so he deserves a little peace for this one day. You can tell them about it tomorrow." Payal points out.

Dadi ji notices Nisha and payal discussing about rahul maanvi. "Nisha, it is quite possible that rahul maanvi don't have their phones with them, or maybe their phones are on silent."

Payal~ "How do you know dadi ji?"

Dadi ji~ "Because... I may have something to do with this idea. Everytime rahul maanvi tries to spend time together, someone or something comes in between them, so I told them to keep their phones away or on silent. It seems I was right to tell them so. Let them enjoy their time. Raj already said he and Shaleen will sort it on their own, so no need to bother rahul and maanvi today with this type of problems."

Dadi ji and payal goes back to their work to prepare for tonight's party. Nisha heads back to her room. Once inside, she shuts the door hard. Shaleen looks at her with questioning looks.

Nisha~ "Do they even care if something happens in this house? What if some emergency comes up? No sense of responsibility towards their family. Why would they care anyway? Everyone is always so fond of these two like they are some sort of masters of this house." She blabbers.

Shaleen~ "You talking about rahul maanvi?"

Nisha~ "Do you really need to ask me that?"

Shaleen~ "Yeah, you got a point. Its all that you ever talk about when you are not complaining about me being irresponsible. So what did they do now?"

Nisha~ "Do you find this funny shaleen? Doesn't it bother you at all that everyone just loves your brother no matter what he does? He is out with his maanvi and they probably have their phones on silent so no one can disturb them. Do they even care about their family or the family values they so love to preach about?"

Shaleen~ "Just leave them be, ok? I want to handle this situation my way, so dad... or you do not think of me as a person who can't even manage his own matters. Its not just about that either. I do not wish to involve rahul everytime I m having some problems. I can handle it on my own. So please, stop doing things that are opposite of what I want to do."

Shaleen's words puts Nisha on pause in her attempts. But how long before her nature of causing problems surfaces again, is something hard to predict.

Meanwhile, Rahul and maanvi reaches the sky venture building. Rahul has reserved the open roof restaurant at the top floor, specially for his date with maanvi, will all the favourite dcor, food, live music... and the near sunset time that simply gave amazing view.

As maanvi takes a few steps ahead to admire the decoration and the view from this place, rahul takes out their phones and turns them on silent, before placing them back. Rahul signals the live band to play one of his tunes to which he sings the song for maanvi.

~~Jise zindagi dhoondh rahi hai
Kya ye woh makaam mera hai // sunset shades glowing on them
Yahaan chain se bas ruk jaaun
Kyun dil ye mujhe kehta hai //rahul admires beautiful maanvi
Jazbaat naye se mile hain
Jaane kya asar ye huaa hai
Ik aas mili phir mujhko
Jo qubool kisi ne kiya hai //he walks up to maanvi and extends his hand for dance

Haan.. //rahul maanvi starts dancing
Kisi shaayar ki ghazal
Jo de rooh ko sukoon ke pal
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjaare ko ghar
Naye mausam ki sehar
Yaa sard mein dopahar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjare ko ghar
Hmm...

Jaise koi kinaara
Deta ho sahaara
Mujhe wo mila kisi mod par
Koi raat ka taara
Karta ho ujaala
Waise hi roshan kare woh shehar

Dard mere woh bhula hi gayaa
Kuch aisa asar huaa
Jeena mujhe phir se woh sikha raha
Hmm.. Jaise baarish kar de tar
Yaa marham dard par
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjare ko ghar
Naye mausam ki sehar
Yaa sard mein dopahar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjaare ko ghar

Muskaata yeh chehra
Deta hai jo pehraa
Jaane chhupata kya dil ka samandar
Auron ko toh hardam saaya deta hai
Woh dhoop mein hai khada khud magar
Chot lagi hai usey,
Phir kyun mehsoos mujhe ho raha hai
Dil tu bata de kya hai iraada tera

Main parinda besabar
Tha uda jo darbadar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjarey ko ghar
Naye mausam ki sehar
Yaa sard mein dopahar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjarey ko ghar

Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjare ko ghar~~

Rahul~ "Maanvi, do you remember this song?"

Maanvi's memory goes back to the concert night when rahul first sang this song... then to the time when rahul wanted her to be his lead female singer... the rehearsals... it all came to her like a movie playing in her head.

Rahul~ "You are the one who gave me this song. That night how much I had wished to be able to look deep in your eyes and say this to you. Later when I found you, you hated me so much that I wanted to give up on this song. Now look how the time changed. I m standing here with you in my arms, able to sing it again and tell you everything I have in my heart."

Maanvi just stared back in his eyes, completely speechless. She knew the first time she heard this song that it held some deep meaning, but now she knows that the meaning... the soul of this song... is her.

They kept dancing on simple music played by the live band for little bit longer when the waiter asked them if they wish to have the food served. Rahul had planned it all completely along with the menu of food maanvi should eat according to the dietary needs.

Maanvi kept looking at rahul, admiring him on how he manages to touch her heart with his sweet gestures. Rahul notices her staring so he smiles before breaking their silent eye-to-eye conversations.

Rahul~ "Maanvi, are you going to keep staring at me or going to say something about my preparations?"

Maanvi snaps out of her admiration for rahul"Rahul... how do you do all this?"

Rahul~ "What do you mean? You mean these ideas?"

Maanvi nods. "These ideas, sweet gestures... everything."

Rahul~ "Well that I cannot tell you, because its a secret. Lets just say it is a part of my charming personality."

Maanvi~ "Really? I never noticed."

Rahul~ "O yeah? Then what is it that makes you stare at me with so much love and admiration?"

Maanvi didn't know how to answer that, so rahul took her hand in his hand and continued "I know maanvi, you don't have to say anything. Because words can never explain what we feel for each other. It is simply pure, deep and priceless. It goes beyond words... how we are tied to each other..."

Rahul no longer needed to use words as their eyes said the rest. As the sun sets and night draws closer, it was time for them to return home where a surprise party awaited rahul.

Nice part,cont soon
Waiting 4 nxt part

Chapter 53

Close family friends have all gathered at sabarwal mansion. They all awaited for rahul to show up so they can surprise him. Rahul maanvi are on the way back to sabarwal mansion. Rahul keeps humming the song he sang for maanvi few minutes ago. Maanvi can't help but smile as she knows that the song keeps him living the recent moments over n' over. Maanvi takes out her phone to message Sonali that they are returning home and finds out four missed calls from Nisha. Maanvi realizes that rahul must have turned the phone on silent, so now she turns it back on sound again. Maanvi calls nisha back to ask if everything is alright but no response.

Maanvi~ "Nisha would never call me unless something is up. Let me ask mommy ji." She thinks to herself and tries to call sonali. Sonali picks up the call and when maanvi asks about it, Sonali tells her there is nothing that she or rahul need to worry about and she don't need to mention this to rahul or he will worry as well. Maanvi didn't resist but she felt that something has happened when she and rahul were not at home.

Rahul~ "Maanvi...?"

Maanvi~ "Haan rahul?"

Rahul looks at her as he can see the worry clear on her face. Maanvi mentions the missed calls from Nisha and about her feeling that something has happened.

Rahul~ "Maanvi, tum tension mat lo. Mom ne kaha na tumhe pareshan hone ki zaroorat nahi hai, sab theek hai."

Maanvi~ "Tumhe kaise pata ki mommy ji ne kya kaha?"

Rahul~ "Tumhare chehre se. Ab itna to main apni mom aur aapni biwi ko jaanta hoon. Aur Nisha itne din se ghar se bahar thi to usko na... keeda kaat raha tha. Ab wapas aayi hai to kuch drama to hoga hi." He states the obvious.

Maanvi looks at him "To rockstar rahul sabarwal ko sab pata hota hai?" She said in a teasing tone.

Rahul~ "Kya karoon, pata rakhna padta hai. Nahi to jo meri pyari si biwi hai na wo kab kis baat par naraaz ho jaye pata nahi chalta. Itni mushkil ke baad usko yeh bharosa aaya ki main wo ghatiya insaan nahi hoon jo wo mujhe samajhti thi. To aage main koi chance nahi lena chahta ki usko phir koi aisa khayal aaye mere bare mein."

Maanvi~ "Itna maayne rakhti hoon main tumhare liye ki main tumhare baare mein kya sochti hoon tum uska bhi khayal rakhte ho? Tumko pareshan hone ki zaroorat nahi hai kyunki ab koi bhi agar mujhse aake yeh kahega ki tum ache insaan nahi ho to uske liye mujhse bura koi nahi hoga. Main apne pati ko ache se jaanti hoon aur wo duniya mein sabse acha insaan hai."

Rahul~ "To Mrs. Maanvi ab mere liye ladayi bhi karengi? Wow! Kya kismet hai meri."

Maanvi~ "Bilkul ladungi, mere pati ko galat kehne ka haq kisi ko nahi hai. Aur agar kisi ne mere pati ke khilaf kuch bhi kaha to main..." She gets a little carried away in emotions.

Rahul stops the car on side of the road. He turns on his seat, places his left arm around the head rest of maanvi's seat as he bends a little towards maanvi and says "To kya, maanvi? Mere khilaf bolne wale ka kya karogi? Batao na."

Maanvi looks in his dove eyes and forgets everything. Words simply escapes her that she could use to answer his question. Rahul begins to understand that each time he looks in her eyes, she forgets and freezes. He slowly caresses her hairs with his right hand. Maanvi closes her eyes in response to his touch and rahul keeps staring at his beautiful maanvi.

Rahul~ "Maanvi... jab hum akele hote hain tab to theek hai. Par agar sabke saamne bhi, jab main tumhare kareeb aaunga, aur tum aise hi karogi to sab kya sochenge?" He says in a soft tone.

The thought snaps her out and she opens her eyes. She almost gasps thinking to have an audience when he comes close to her like this. It was enough to make her nervous and rahul admires her even more. He grabs her right arm to pull her towards himself making her even more nervous.

Maanvi whispers "Rahul... please..."

But rahul's staring dove eyes just adds to it. Maanvi can't even dare to look in his eyes, she just keeps her eyes fixed towards her feet. Rahul keeps smiling, looking at her.

Maanvi is saved by the call from payal, who called to ask how long till they get back home. Rahul says that they are only few blocks away so they will reach home in few minutes. After the call is disconnected, payal sets off the everyone hide to surprise rahul' part at the mansion. The lights are dimmed, all guests hides around and family members just takes their place on sofa or chair in the hall. Few minutes later rahul maanvi enters.

Rahul wonders seeing the rest of the family members sitting in the hall "Why are the lights dimmed?"

Nikhil turns on the lights and everyone says "Surprise!" Then everyone wishes rahul for his birthday. Rahul thanks everyone for the wonderful birthday gift.

One of rahul's friend says "Itna plain thank you? Yaar tu itna bada rockstar hai, to ek gaane ke saath thank you to banta hai." Other people also supports the same idea.

Rahul replies "Mera birthday hai, to aaj agar sabke saamne main gaunga to akele nahi. Tumhari bhabhi ko mere saath gaana aur nachna padega."

Rahul only had to say it and now all eyes were on maanvi. Rahul's friends and other people ask maanvi to accept his condition. Maanvi nods. Rahul slowly walks towards maanvi; Tum Se Hi' song plays and rahul sings. Lights dim as rahul maanvi comes closer, holding each other in gentle embrace. When they are so close to each other, they forget everyone around as if its only them in the room. Rahul maanvi do a very romantic dance together on this song.

When song ends and lights are turned on again, everyone compliments their performance. Payal goes to our couple and says "Thoda sa fog system aur laga hota na, to bilkul wo movies ki tarah dream sequence lagta. Seriously, aap dono jab ek saath hote ho na to fairytale ke prince charming aur prettiest princess se kam nahi lagte. Aap dono ki love story par to movie banani chahiye."

Rahul~ "Ho gaya tera? Ya abhi aur thodi jhooti tareef karke apna matlab nikalwane ki taiyari hai? Dekh payal, main aisa waisa kuch nahi karunga... na to teri shaitaniyoon bhare ideas mein help karunga aur na hi support. Yeh apni free ki tareefoon ka butter kisi aur ko lagana."

Payal~ "Maine kuch bhi nahi kaha aur na kiya, aap to pehle hi conclusion par pahauch gaye bhai. Main to sirf wahi keh rahi thi jo abhi aap dono ko yoon romantic dance karte hue mere mann me aaya. Aap hi pata nahi baat ko kahan se kahan le gaye. Agar meri baat jhooti lagti hai to dadi ji se phooch lo, wo bhi wahi kahengi jo maine kaha. Waise sach batao, jab aap maanvi bhabhi ke saath dance kar rahe the to kya feel ho raha tha?" She teases them with her question, acting all innocent.

Nikhil passes by with a bowl of ice-cream and rahul grabs him to change the discussion. "Nikhil, yeh kya kar raha hai? Tujhe apni diet par control karna hai na? Payal, meri tang khichene se acha hai tu aaj iss party mein Nikhil par nazar rakh. Tum dono ek saath pura din masti karte ho, kabhi thoda ek dusare ka khayal bhi rakh liya karo."

Nikhil gets defensive "Bhai, ye meri ice-cream nahi hai, dadi ji ki hai jo main unke liye le jaa raha tha. Aur aap apni problem ko mere sir par kaise daal sakte hain?"

Payal~ "Nikhil, tumne mujhe problem kaha? Wah! Yeh acha hai, harkate karo tum ladke aur naam lagate ho hum ladkiyoon ka?"

Maanvi who was just listening to them quietly so far, joined in "Payal tum bilkul theek keh rahi ho. Sab sharartein ladke karte hain aur phir ilzaam hum bichari ladkiyoon par laga dete hain."

Rahul~ "Maanvi, tum bhi?" he asks in surprise.

Maanvi~ "Kya tum bhi? Sahi to kaha maine. Jab dekho tab mujhe satate ho aur kehte ho ki main tumhe wo sab karne par majboor karti hoon." She makes puppy doll face.

Rahul~ "Apni ankhoon se, apni batoon se, apni adaoon se poore waqt mujhe bechain karti ho aur kehti ho ki tum kuch nahi karti? Maanvi yeh to galat baat hai."

Maanvi~ "Aur tum jo apni baatoon se, apni nazaroon se mujhe bechain karte ho uska kya?"

Rahul~ "Matlab ki mere tumhare aas pass hone se tumhara bhi haal wahi hota hai jo mera tumhare mere aas pass hone se hota hai?" He stares at her with his dove eyes again.

Maanvi fumbles to answer such a direct question in front of everyone. "N... nahi... nahi to."

Rahul~ "Jhooti! Abhi to tum keh rahi thi ki main tumhe bechain karta hoon."

Maanvi shakes her head in a complete denial with a cute smile. Rahul eyes her for pretending this way.

Payal~ "Ab agar yeh baat hai to aaj phir faisla ho hi jaye. Main aur maanvi bhabhi against rahul bhai and Nikhil. Girls versus boys dance match!"

Nikhil~ "Oh, thank you, main nahi... Agar bhai ki team me main jaunga to bhai to pakka harenge. Meri jagah kisi aur ko lelo. Shaleen bhai, unko lelo." He suggested.

Payal~ "Phir to Nisha bhabhi ko bhi join karna padega aur boys ki team phir ek kam ho jayegi."

Vikas, who was also one of the guests, overheard them. "I m sorry, par maine aap logo ki batein suni. Agar aap ko koi problem nahi hai to main rahul ki team join karne ke liye taiyaar hoon. Aakhir boys ki reputation ka sawaal hai."

Nikhil~ "Great! Problem solved." He then calls Shaleen and nisha as well to join this boys versus girls competition, who agreed gladly. Thus, the dance competition kicks off with girls team lead by maanvi, Nisha and payal, and boys team lead by rahul, Shaleen and vikas.

DJ plays the song "Tera Rang Balle Balle" and both teams dance off. First part of the song, maanvi and rahul takes up on each other, followed by payal and vikas, and then nisha and shaleen, lastly again back to maanvi rahul. At the end of the song when rahul pulls maanvi close, she pushes him back in the hands of the boys behind him and walks away showing a little attitude. Rahul and rest of the boys team look at each other.

Just then, Nikhil brings in a soft heart shaped pillow and passes it to rahul. DJ plays the song "Dil Na Diya" and round two starts. Rahul goes to maanvi and sits on his knees, with the heart shaped pillow in his hands, stretched towards maanvi. Everyone looks at maanvi who smiles and cutely shakes her head in a sweet no. Rahul acts pulling that pillow and falls backward, supported by the boys behind him. The boys dances off with the music. Soon rahul gets maanvi to dance off with him, rest of the girls follow. As the song comes to end, maanvi accidentally trips and falls in rahul's arms. They share a short eye lock moment before parting away.

Sonali and raj announces that from the two rounds, it is officially a tie between the boys and girls teams. The rest of the party continues further with people talking about the performances and other usual stuff. Finally neha gets a chance to come to wish rahul on his birthday. Shaleen and raj were standing close by and seeing neha, they get a fresh reminder of what tensions they have been hiding from everyone in the party, including rahul.

Rahul and maanvi sense the strain of tension between raj and Shaleen but they decide to wait till after the guests have left. Soon that moment came as well. Party ended and guests starts to leave. Vikas wished rahul again before leaving, his eyes met payal's one last time as he walked out of sabarwal mansion. Raj and Shaleen were giving cold treatment towards each other most the time hence rahul confronted them.

Rahul~ "Dad, Shaleen... Aap dono ke beech phir koi problem hai jo aap iss tarah se behave kar rahe hain? Poori sham aap dono ne ek dusare ki taraf theek se dekha bhi nahi isliye yeh mat kehna ki koi problem nahi hai."

Shaleen~ "You are right. Problem hai... bahaut badi problem hai. Jo kuch bhi uss event me hua wo nahi hona chahiye tha. Aur mujhe lagta hai ki dad ne us situation ko avoid karne ke liye koi steps nahi liye. Uski wajah se mujhe lagta hai ki main kabhi bhi ek acha singer nahi ban paunga."

Rahul~ "Par tumne to bahaut achi performance di thi. Phir? What is the problem?"

Shaleen~ "Problem yeh hai ki har koi mujhe tumse compare karta hai. I m not you! Meri apni pehchan bani nahi aur mujhe tumhare bhai ke naam ki pehchan zaroor mil gayi hai. I want to make my own identity!"

Rahul~ "I understand completely Shaleen. So, what is your plan?"

Shaleen~ "I want to move out." He declared. "Move out... not just from this mansion or this city. I want to move away some place where people wont judge me on the basis of being related to sabarwals."

The silence spread across the whole room when Shaleen finished his words.
