They sat in the car. Mrityunjay started driving.
"You idiot Mrityunjay ... you lost your golden opportunity to propose to her. Now what next?"
He howled at himself. There was complete silence in the car. Mrityunjay was happy at least his Tara was with him even though she was not talking and seemed a little angry. He was watching her through the corner of his eyes.
Tara was looking outside the window.
"First you didn't call me, didn't talk to me. Called Yug and Vasu but didn't talk to me, then said you will come to the station and came late. Ok, came late but came with flowers and that was good. After giving flowers what I was expecting you to say? Something about your feelings and what you said? You have a meeting!!!"
Tara was fuming from inside thinking about his recent activities.
Mrityunjay saw her face. She was very angry, so he switched on the radio.
~Dil ko tumse pyaar hua pehli baar hua tumse pyaar hua
Main bhi aashiq yaar hua pehli baar hua tumse pyaar hua
Chhayi hai betaabi meri jaan kaho main kya karu~
He smiled listening to the song. "Wow...perfect song for my situation. I too don't know how to say, what to say."
Tara didn't pay attention to Mrityunjay who was enjoying the song thoroughly as it was true for him. Since yesterday he was eagerly waiting for Tara to tell her about his feelings and now he was speechless.
~Kho gaya main khayalo mein ab neend bhi nahi aakhon mein
Karvate bas badalta hoon ab jaagta hoon main raaton mein ~
His fingers were dancing on the steering thinking how this song was perfectly written for him and played at the correct time.
~Ab doori na sehni har lamha kehta hai
Na jaane haal mera aisa kyun rehta hai ~
"I wish Tara you would understand what I want to say by listening to this song."
~Main deewana tera bangaya jaane jaana
Main fasana tera bangaya jaane jaana~
He adjusted the rear-view mirror to get Tara's expression as she was sitting facing outside.
~Haseena gori gori churaye chori chori
Churaye dil chori chori chori chori chori~
She was still angry with Mrityunjay and what added to her anger was this song. "For heaven's sake Mrityunjay, stop playing games with my heart and say something. This song is giving me false hopes." She thought.
~Dil ko tumse pyaar hua pehli baar hua tumse pyaar hua
Main bhi aashiq yaar hua pehli baar hua tumse pyaar hua~
~Aarzoo hai mere sapno ki baitha rahoon teri baahon mein
Sirf tu mujhe chahe ab itna asar ho meri aahon mein~
Mrityunjay's eyes were stuck on Tara. Tara too noticed it. His eyes were filled with love for her; there was no symbol of fear in it. Their eyes met, she lowered her gaze.
~Tu keh de haske tod doon main rasmo ko
Marke bhi na bhoolon main teri kasmo ko ~
She noticed their car was going in the wrong lane as Mrityunjay's attention was on Tara, so she immediately turned the steering.
~Main to aaya hoon yahan pe bas tere liye
Tera tan mann sab hai mere liye ~
Mrityunjay chuckled hearing this. Tara turned her face blushing after realizing what lines had just played.
~Kya haseen zara sama hai pyara pyara
Gale laga le yaara yaara yaara yaara yaara ~
"Oh...Tara I missed your smile too much." His eyes were still on Tara.
~ Main bhi aashiq yaar hua pehli baar hua tumse pyaar hua ~
They reached home. Mrityunjay unloaded her luggage from the car and drove to the office. He was watching her through the rear-view mirror till he went out of the gates of the mansion.
Tara was also standing there outside the mansion door as long as she was able to see his car.
Tara entered the mansion. Dadaji was sitting in the hall watching her standing there until Mrityunjay's car faded from her sight. She went to Dadaji and took his blessing. They talked about her tour. After that Tara went to her room.
Mrityunjay was on his way when he stopped in front of a shop seeing something, went inside and came back to the car with a packet, and then drove off to the office.
When she entered the room, she was surprised on seeing Mrityunjay's stuff again in the room. She hurried to his closet to check whether he had returned to the room completely and it was true. His clothes were there in the closet assuring her of his return.
"Mrityunjay you have changed ...something in you is changed. Since you came at the station, I am noticing there is something different in you. There is no fear in your eyes and there is a new life in you."
After freshening up, Tara had lunch with Dadaji. She wanted to ask him what happened to Mrityunjay after she went on tour, but she was not getting how to ask.
Seeing Tara lost in her thoughts, he asked,
"What happened Tara?"
Hearing him Tara came out of her thoughts.
"A...Dadaji did anything happen after I left?" she questioned hesitatingly.
"Well ..."
He rubbed his palm understanding about whom she was asking and said, "No..nothing happened, but if you feel so then I think something good happened." He winked.
After lunch, she went to her room to rest but she was not able to rest thinking what might have happened that Mrityunjay has changed. Whether he had really changed or it's just her assumption about him. No...he has changed, his eyes never lie and they were shouting that he had changed. He was fearless but nervous about something ...but what?? That is the big question.
"Mrityunjay ...why are you making me lose my mind, speak up for one time ...baas ek baar keh do..."
