Each and every part of Birla house was being decorated in a grand style from top to bottom, after all they were Birlas and they have to live up to that reputation. It was the day before Holi. Everyone in the house was excited apart from Saiyyam. For him, it was just another ordinary day. But if he thought that he could escape from it. He was wrong, very wrong.
Saiyyam! Suhani called out as she noticed him standing in one corner with hands in his pocket.
Ji, he looked up at her as she started walking towards him.
Tum aise hi khade rahogay ya phir kuch Madaat v karogay? She scolded him just like a mother would.
Haan, who mein..supervise kar Raha hoon.. saiyyam blurted out an excuse.
Suhani narrowed her eyes. hmm chalo, take these garlands aur Issko Bahar lagana hai, jao krishna wait kar Rahi hai. She glared at him waiting for him to take the basket from her hand.
Please aap mujhe Koi aur Kam de did jiye..he pleaded, as he was trying to avoid Krishna all day. But Suhani didn't listen to him.
He started walking towards the front entrance, but was planning out his answers to Krishna's questions. He knew she would pester him about celebrating festivals with family but he rather just stay indoors. What does she gain by annoying me?! He was baffled in his thoughts, just then Krishna was walking towards him and then as always bumping into eachother and the basket of garlands fell on them.
It was almost as if they were strangled together with the garlands, so close that their bodies collided leaving only few inches between their face. None of them said anything, they were simply lost in eachothers eyes. He creased her cheeks with his cold fingers as she was getting hot flashes. Finally, Krishna broke the eye lock and started to take off the garlands but it was so tangled that she didn't know what to do, and more than that, it was his closeness that made her uncomfortable, while saiyyam was still admiring her.
He stopped her, taking the strand of garland from her hands and slowly unwrapping it around her shoulders down to her waist. Everytime he touched, she felt a current run down her body. "you can't escape me" he whispered in her ears. At last, they broke apart and he let her go but Krishna couldn't hide her blush so she turned her back to him and continued doing her work. Saiyyam smirked and went near her again, which raised her heartbeat, he said in his husky voice "kya huwa, kuch kuch hota hai?"
Na..nahi. Tum jao yaha se. She turned around and pushed him lightly on his chest.
Par mein toh help karne aaya hoon .. he said playfully.
Kya help, mera kaam sara bigad diya. Tum bilkul useless ho. She said gaining back her confidence.
Useless? He questioned her with a smirk, stepping closer and he carefully put her hair behind her ears so he could see her cheeks turning pink.
Tumhe sirf yeh...hak jata na hi aata hai.. she replied looking directly into his eyes.
His expressions changed and he moved away. "Fine, khud hi karlo sab kuch..bohot mahaan ban ne ka shokh hai na. He turned away but she called out his name.
Saiyyam, tum kal sab ke saath Holi kheloge na? She asked softly, hoping it would ease his anger a little.
Krishna, stop it. Mujhe koi interest nahi hai in sab mein. You know it very well. He rolled his eyes.
Kyun nahi? Tumhari problem kya hai. She snapped at him.
Bas, meri marzi. Aur tum mujhe force nahi kar sakti. He glared at her, observing her puppy face pout.
Haan, waise bhi force karna tumhe aata hai..she muttered but he still heard her which made him even more angry.
Krishna, kya chahti ho tum? Kyun aise behave kar rahi ho. He asked out of frustration.
Mein sirf tumhare saath holi khelna chahti hoon. She pouted cutely. But he didn't wait for her answer.
How stubborn, phele puchta hai aur jawab ka wait bhi nahi karta! Kuch bhi ho Mr Saiyyam, kal tumhe mujhse koi nahi bacha sakta. She smiled thinking about tomorrow.
The day went by and KriYam hadn't argued anymore about it. Krishna challenged herself that she will make him celebrate tomorrow. Until he puts colour on her, she will not let anyone else put colour on her.
In the morning, Krishna was waiting for him to wake up, she was prepared with a plate full of colour. She couldn't wait any longer, so she walked over to the bed and mischievously took a handful of red colour and was about to put it on his cheeks but he woke up with a shock. He was pretending to sleep, hoping that she would finally get tired of waiting and leave. But he was wrong again.
What do you think you are doing?! He asked getting away from her.
Saiyyam tumhe jo kehna hai kaho mein tumhe chodongi nahi, aaj! As she came closer, he moved back two steps. Damn it, you are too stubborn. He thought. Tumse hi sikha hai mein - she replied out loud as if she read his mind. He tried running into the bathroom but she stood in front of it extending her hands to put colour on him but he had enough of it. He was frustrated now. He flipped out, knocking off the plate from her hands and it fell on the ground, splashing some colour on their faces.
Krishna was close to tears, he ruined their first Holi. Everyone gathered in KriYam's room after hearing a loud noise of the plate. They all laughed at their faces and Bhavna teased them, "bedroom mein holi ka romance..lets go, yahan toh private holi chal rahi hai."
Krishna ran out the room leaving Saiyyam guilty. She joined everyone in the garden, and Yuvanii gave her a glass of bhaang. She wasn't in the mood, she could feel her eyes slowly watering, then she noticed how Suhani and Yuvraj were enjoying their holi even after being married for so long, they acted as if it was their first time. She wasn't going to forgive Saiyyam this easily, she wanted to drag him our her but just then Yuvaan started the music " soni soni akhiyon wali.." from Mohabbatein (it's the holi scene)
Soni ..soni ankhiyon wali ...Dil de ja ya de ja tu gaali, hum tere deewane hai..hum aashiq mast taane hai..
Yuvaan grabbed Krishna's hand, pulling her to dance with him. She gave a dirty look to him, but he didn't care. He threw colour on her and she turned around to see Saiyyam starring at her. So then he turned back to Yuvaan and put some colour on his cheeks. He was shocked to see Krishna having fun without him. Krishna purposely played around with Yuvaan to see Saiyyam's reaction.
Saiyyam was fuming in anger, watching Yuvaan and Krishna so close to eachother. He wanted to shout at Krishna, take her away from all this crowd to where it's just two of them. But his ego was stopping him.
(Music-Saiyyam's part..)
Kyun mujhse dur khadi hai - he looked at Krishna but she turned away from him, so he walked over with hands full of colour. "baadi maasti tuhje chadi hai" he smirked at her. A faint smile appeared on her face seeing him making some effort.
Kyun mujhse dur khadi hai.. dil ke nazadik badi hai, aa lag ja gale tu kisi bhane se.. He cupped her face and filled her maang with the red colour. Making her realize that she was only his. Krishna closed her eyes and embraced that moment.
Soch kar tha tuhje aana, toh phir aake wapas na jaana. Saiyyam pulled her closer but Yuvaan grabbed Krishna's other hand and took her away.
Hum tere deewane hai, hum aashiq maasta ne hai.. Krishna was feeling light headed spinning around Yuvaan, her eyes searched for Saiyyam but he was gone.
She followed him inside, Saiyyam! Tumne mujhe kyun akela chod diya.. she spoke childishly.
His eyes burning in anger, he pinned her against the wall. Akele kaha ho tum? Yuvaan hai na. Bohut maaza aa raha hai tumhe.
Nahi - mujhe sirf tum .. he cut her off before she could finish. Leaning his head even closer to her, inhaling her perfume scent, he placed his lips on her bare neck, which relieved his anger, a bit.
Saiyyam please..she gasped. He wasn't listening to her. His full attention was on her soft lips, she was biting her lower lip making him loose control. He pressed his lips onto hers. He was so angry at her but he couldn't stop himself. He waited for her to respond but she was too numb. Already furious at Yuvaan, how dare he touch her and on top of that she isn't even kissing him back. His thoughts were wondering back to their dance making him tightening his grip on her and deeply taste her rosy lips. He continued his kiss, he didn't want to stop but she pushed him.
Ouch - she moaned getting back her breathe. He looked into her deep brown eyes, and lifted her chin asking for more. He realized his grip was so tight that she was in pain. "sorry..woh I .." he couldn't find words for his actions.
Sorry?! This is not the first time.. She reminded him.
He was about to leave when she stopped him. "You always do this, why do you do this if you regret it so much."
He looked at her, "Krishna, pata nahi mujhe kya ho jata hai.." She cupped his face looking into his hurt eyes.. "You kiss me when you feel like it and then you leave me, is ka kya matlab hai Saiyyam?" He didn't have an answer, he just knew that if felt good.
Tum chup kyun ho! Bolo na. She hit his chest aimlessly. Itna gussa kis liye? He kept listening to her obediently.
Tum nahi bologe na - theek hai - She pulled him from his collar and kissed him passionately. He was so taken back, he couldn't think for few seconds, making him go crazy, he wanted to respond back but she pulled out before he had the chance. He looked disturbed, then she broke out in tears - this is what you do with my feelings and my love for you. You make me feel good and then leave me half way.
He cupped her face, wiping her tears - and finally said "Krishna, yeh gussa issile hai kuynki mein apne aap se gussa hoon. Sochta hoon ki koi mujhse itna pyaar kaise kar sakta hai?
Aur agar mein yeh kahu ki - koi tumse kaise pyaar nahi kar sakta? (how can anyone not fall in love with you?!) Tum jaise ho waise bohut achhe ho. Ek baar agar meri nazar se dekho ge toh khud hi samjh jaoenge. She couldn't make it anymore clearer.
He wiped her tears and finally got the corage to speak his mind, because if not now, then never. Krishna, Sach yeh hai ki, I don't ever want to let you go, tum sirf meri ho aur hamesha meri rahoengi -". She hugged him tightly, she felt safe in his arms, never wanting this moment to end, he placed a kiss on her forehead. Lifting her up, he placed her on the bed with a smirk. She knew what was coming next but she was ready to be his.
