Update 19
Carriage , on the way to palace. Nupur sees a masked figure at the sountryside, sittion on horseback, waiting for some1, surprisingly for her, specially after the last alienated behavior from him makes her almost astounded when he nods at her while she is passing him. After a bit of thinking nupur tells the driver to hault.
Bensam
S (turning his head toward the door hearing the knock): aare benji! Tu yaha?
B (offering the package dramatically): Home delivery for you,,,his royal highness!!!
S (leaving the chair abruptly looking here and there tentatively): sshhhhhhhhhh~! Paagal ho gaya hain kya? Koi sun liya toh!
B: aas paas koi bhi nahin hain yaar!
S: aaneme kitne der?
B: aacchha theek hain! Nahin karta main aisa kuchh! Okay?
S: fine (noticing the packet) ye kya hain?
B: jo aap mangwaye the!ekdum aap ki special instrcuction ke anusar ye banwaya gaya hain, raj
S (sternly): benji!
B (laughing): mazak mazk me bhi main sach hi keh raha tha yaar! Us tailor ko jab pata chala ke ye special royal order hain, uska toh chehra dekhne layek tha dude!
S (mocking him): hehe! Ab ye meswak ki advertisement bandh kar aur chal mere sath!
B: kaha?
S: gunjan se nahin milna hain kya?
Bhushan's
The kingsmen are already there with the invitation card and instruction papers with them to serve to the bhushan's.
Bin (as the lady assistant of the tailor goes inside to take lav's measurement): meri aur bhi ek beti hain,,,jo mahal ki decoratin me madat kar rahi hain,,,uski naap ka kya?
One of the kingsman: mahal me kaam karnewalon ke liye alag intezam hain,,,aap befikar rahiye ( looking at gunjan, making a gesture towards the pile of fabrics) aap bhi aaiye,,,apne liye kapre pasand kar lijiye.
Bin (gunjan shoots a tentative look at bin then takes a step toward the fabrics): aare, gunjan! Tu kaha jaa rahi hain? Jaa andar jaa,,,khana pakana hain na tujhe? (as gunjan has started to the kitchen already she is quite inside of the house when one of the kinsmen speaks)
Km: ek minute!
nuqaab
nq (now walking side by side of nupur): ek pal ke liye mujhe laga tha aap ruknewali nahi thi
n: Rab ka shukar manaiye ke main vindicative nature ki nahin hoon,,,agar hoti toh (she steals a glance at this lengthening the uncomfortable pause)
nq: agar hoti toh?
N: agar hoti toh shayad nain rukti,,,usdin ka hisab barabar ho jata!
Nq (still confused): us dinka? Matlab kis din ka?
N: kiu? Wobhi bhul gaye hain aap? Theek us terha jaise usdin mujhe bhul gaye the?
Nq: nupurji please! Ye paheliyan bujhana bandh karke saaf saaf keh dijiye na jobhi kehna hain?
N is looking a bit confused now as it's the last thing she expected from him, she has thought he wud ask for forgiveness but now she has to make him remember wat his fault is!!! Another thing strikes her for a while,,,now, where does this tolerance come from? If it were mayank she wudnt even give him any chance to speak with her, like he did earlier, but when it comes to naqaab why does she act so differently? Is it only the formal decency? Which ppl do to outsiders? Or it goes deeper than that? If it is only that then wudnt it be more appropriate if it were the the other way around? Wud it be much more plausible if she wud act with patience with prince not with the pirate? Wat happens with her when she is with rajkumar mayank? Y she behaves so,,,
Nq (pulling her out of the trance): nupurji? Nupurji?
Bindu, gunjan and kingsmen
Km: aap log shayaad bhul rahe hain ke is parivaar ki hare k sadasya ko ye niyanta bheja gaya hain
Bin (with a fake smile on her lips): aap bilkul theek keh rahe hain, lakin ye toh hamare parivaar ki sadasya hi nahin hain (gunjan looks in shock while samrat who has been hiding along with benjie to avoid known royal guards, looks furious, benjie grasps his wrist when he tries to move forgetting about his mission naqaab for a while, samrat looks at him and benjie motions him to have partience, samrat gives in after a while) ,,, ye toh sirf ek naukrani hain, wo bhi chhote mote kaam karte rehta hain,,,zyada kuchh nahin (gunjan runs away from there hiding her tears)
Km: par yaha toh char log ki vare me likha hain, bindu devi, lavanya prabha bhushan, nupur jayati bhushan aur gunjan rajashree bhushan ki naam hain is list me (bindu looks a bit paler at this) jo abhi abhi chali gayi unhe bhi toh aap gunjan kehkar hi pukari thina?
The remaining color in bindu's face gets lost as she gulps. Samrat smirks from his hideout.
Nuqaab
N (waking up from her reverie): kiu aap ko yaad nahin hain?
Nq: agar hota toh ab tak ye nacheez ne aapki aage aapna ghutna thek kar maafi mang raha hota!
N (smiling at the style of his open statement): kiu? Aise nahin thek sakte hain kya?
Nq (making nupur jump falling down on his knees): ab toh bataiye is bande ki kasoor kya hain?
N (moving her hand from her own mouth): naqaabji please utthiye!
Nq: pehle aap bataiye!
Nupur gives in shaking her head
Bin and kingsmen
Bin (recovering fast): aare haan, uska naam bhi gunjan hain,,,par gunjan bhushan nahin hain, meri beti gunjan toh kuchhdin ke liye morena se bahar gayin hain,,,apni mausi ki waha. (samrat looks incredulously at benjie, benji looks shocked too)
Km: maaf kijiyega, main shayad aapse be vaaja hi kuchh zyada hi sawal kar liya, baat ye hain ke rajkumari dia ne khans is vaare me itna zor diya ke mujhse sawal karna pada (lavanya comes out with the lady tailor)
Bin: koi baat nahin! Ye sab toh hota hi rehta hain!
Km : ab hume agya dijiye
Bin nods
Nuqaab
N : ab samjhe aap? Mai kiu naraz thi?
Nq (now walking side by side with her once again): aapki narazgi bilkul jayez hain nupurji, par sach toh ye hain ke usdin ghode par main tha hi nahin!
N halts at this so does naqaab
N (at a very serious tone): kya matlab hain aapka? Toh phir wo kaun tha? Aapka humshaqal toh nahin?
Naqaab freezes
bhushan's drawingroom
l: maa, tumne toh us admi ko jhuth keh diya, lakin agar diya ne nupurse puchh liya toh?
Bin: aare, wo log kaam me itna ulajh chuka hain ke is vaare me shayad baat hi na kare,,,aur rajkumari diya ko itna fursat kaha ke wo gunjan jaisu ek umimportant ladki ki vaare me puchhtach kaare?
L: toh phir wo gunjan ki vaare me itna zor kiu di?
Bin: buddhu! Gunjan ki vaareme kisine bhi zor nahin di,,,us messenger ko toh sirf apni list ki padi thi! Us list mese job hi shaqs nahin milta wo uski vaareme hi puchh leta, bas!
L: haan ye shayad tum theek keh rahi ho maa!
Bin: main hamesha theek hi kehti hoon! Tujhe toh khush hona chahiye lavanya! Rajkumari dia ne bhushan's ko itna important jo samajh rahi hain! Aur iske pichhe kiska haath hain ye toh saaf nazar aa raha hain!
L: kiska maa?
Bin: rajkumar mayank ka! Aur kiska? Dekh! (showing a piece of parchment) Wo log toh hume unki personal holi celebration me bhi invite kiya hain! Commoners ke sath nahi!
Lavanya smiles.
Bensam
S: itna vile woman main aaj tak nahin dekha! (punching on the other palm) damn,,,is vaare me kiya bhi kuchh nahin jaa sakta!
B (nodding): haan,,atleast jabtak ye natak chalta rahe tab tak toh nahin
S: iske baad bhi nahin!
B: kiu?!!!
S: kiuke gunjan, kabhi bhi apni parivaar ke khilaf complain nahin karegi,,,which means hum officially uski koi madat nahin kar sakte, par ye baat to taay hain,,,party me wo zarur aayegi
B: fat chance dude!
S (shaking his head, getting ice cold): wo mera guest hain benji! Rajkumar samrat ka,,,wo waha zarur aayegi,,,I will make sure of that!
Nuqaab
Nq (a bit nervously): well,,,that's way out of line,,,asal me mera kehneka matlab ye tha,,,ke jo naqaab nupurji ko na pehchane wo naqaab ho hi nahin sakta!
N (smiling at some thought): waise bhi aap ka toh koi humshakal ho hi nahin sakta,,,zyada se zyadaa humnaqaab ho sakta hain (she chuckles at this)
Nq(joining in): hansi to phansi!
N: kya matlab?
Nq: matlab bilkul saaf hain nupurji! Ab jab aap haans chuke hain uska matlab ab aap phans bhi chuke hain,,,maafi denewala chakrabuh me! (he laughs too)
N (catching her breathe): aap se naraz rehna toh'Khuda jaanr kaise possible hain!
Saajan at the kitchen
Samrat knocks at the door, gunjan mops up her tears and turns to the oevn once again
G (trying to wear a smile): aare samrat! Tum yaha? Kuchh chahiye tha kya?
S (noticing her sad, suddenly feels an urge to make her bright, changes his topic): haan! Chahiye,,,isi liye hi toh yaha aya hoon
G: kya?
S: kya,,,kya?
G (shaking her head because of his poor short time memory): aare,,, chahiye kya tha tumhe?
S: oh! Wo? (smiling crookedly to buy some more time to think) haan,,,simple sa cheez
G gives him a 'aachha toh phir ye complexity kiu' sorta look
S: haan, ofcourse! Tumhara sath! Aur kya?
Gunja drops the spoon she has been holding which makes an ample of noise to make samrat jump
Nuqaab
N ( urgently): oh no! baton baton me waqt kaise nikaal gayaa uska pata bhi nahin chala!
Nq (proceeding to the carriage): palace pauhchneme der ho rahi hain na aapko?
N: haan! Aaj thode der aur rukna parega schedule theek rakhne ke liye,,,ek minute! Aapko kaise pata chala main (naqaab gives her an eye roll at this, which precisely says 'come on ! I have my own sources hun! At the very least, I am naqaab u know) sorry I asked!
Nq: kaam kaisa chal raha hain?
N (wrinkling her brows a bit): er''..welll''haan theek-thaak hi chal raha hain
Nq: confidence ka jhalak thoda kam nazar aa raha hain
N: sabhiko meri kaam pasand araha hain,,,par,,,,
Nq: aapko nahin?
N: I feel like it cud have been much better after finishing each and every task,,,
Nq: that's typical
N : how do u mean?
Nq: artist instinct,,,chahe kitna bhi aachha ho,,,hamesha behtaar karneka chinta laga rehta hain,,, (halting a bit away from the carriage but behind a tree to hide himself from public viewing) aap ka carriage aa chuka hain
N (smiling): duty calls!
Saajan
S (looking incredulously at her): kiu? Maine kuchh galath keh diya hain kya?
G (turning a bit paler than usual out of this unexpected blow,,,not unwanted tho, if I might add): tttumhe mera sath chahiye?
S (still looking confused): haan! Akela practice karneme maza nahin aata yaar!!!
G (getting confused): practice?
S: haan yaar! Archery ka practice,,,(tapping his chest with his forefinger, jokingly) mere jaisa guru tumhe milnewala hain,,,wobhi ilkul muft! Tumhe toh khush hona chahiye! (looking at her, making a very samratian gesture) aur khush dikhna bhi chahiye gunjan ji! Atleast constipayed toh bilkul bhi nahin dikhna chahiye
G (outrageously): kya?!!!!!main constipated dikhti hoon!?
S: hamesha nahin,,,sirf aabhi abhi dikhna
G (looking here and there for something to throw at him, finally getting a baton in her reach she spreads her hand to reach it): abhi ke abhi niklo yaha se warna (samrat throws a flower at her,,,a yellow rose,,,which she catches instinctively)
S (winking): phenknahi hain toh ye phool phenko na? jo bikul tumhari jaisa nazuk ho!
Gunjan looks pink at this
S (encouragingly): ye huvi na baat? Aachhi khansi cute lag rahi ho,,,bilkul gunjan jaisi,,, jhaansi ki rani banneki sochna nahin chahiye tumhe ( sliding the baton away from her reach, gunjan smiles noticing this) ek pal ke liye bhi nahin!
They both share a smile
Palace
Nupur is walking towards the shortest way to her current workzone,,,she meets disha struggling to walk straight a couple of heavy plates containing powder color in those,,,still trying to hurry off at the same time
N (taking one from her): aare aram se chalo na saare ke saare powder gir jayenge
Ds: jaldi chalo nupur thode hi der me is passage ko do ghante ke liye band kiya jayega,
N: kiu?
Ds: royal stuff, jaldi chalo! Warna pura palace ka chakkar katna parega hume! (she hurries off clearing out of the frame so does nupur but a terrible bumping makes her to take the color shower,,,when it clears out she recognizes the obstacle'and cant help but saying a 'oops' seeing maayank covered in green as well)
M: main abhi abhi nahake niklatha nupurji!
N (with a shaky smile): aur main bhi!
Mayank raises a brow at this
N (adding feebly): gharse nikalne se pehle!
M (smiling at her nervous state): aapko shayad holi ka kuchh zyada hi jaldi hain
N (not getting hi point first): nahin toh! Kiu? (then comprehension hits her and makes her smile,,,a real one but doesn't last long as suddenly mayank pulls her behind a pillar and puts his finger on her lips with a 'shhhhhhhh', the priceless wonderous and outrageous stare of her eyes at mayank doesn't last longer either as another dose of comprehension takes that's place, as a sound of marching army goes right past them through the corridor, with the sigh of relief mayank looks at her for the first time of his pulling her behind the pillar, suddenly after a brief eye lock they become aware of their proximity and let of one another asap)
M (breaking the uneasy, stealing glances silence): pitaji rajsabha jaa rahe the with guards and all,,,is samay,,,guards and family members ko chhod ke kisika bhi corridor me rehneka ijazat nahin hain.
N: kisise galathi ho gaye toh
M (smiling a kinda bitter smile): galathi jaisa koi shabd nahin hain rulebook me,,,ya toh kaanun mana jata hain ya phir toda,,,,
N: yanike ,,, (she looks flabbergusted)
M: yanike ,,,aapko saza bhi ho sakti thi (looking in to nupur's eyes) yehi pucchna chahti thi naa aap?
N nods
M (lightly) : aap jaldi jaiye ,,,iske pehle ke koi naye musibat aake tapke! (he take a turn around to go back to his chamber certainly for taking another shower)
N (from behind): myankji!
M turns to her
N (ardently): shukriya!
Mayank smiles in reply
