In record 15minutes Sid reached the beach…as it was Dev's fav place...whenever he needs solitude…when he wants to be all alone …he cud be found here on the beach…

Sid joined him sat beside him…waited for him to speak…when Dev didn't said anything he decided to break the silence…

Sid—kya hua? Something wrong(Dev remained silent...Sid Sighed) phir se u got a letter?(Dev looked surprised at him) what? Itna surprised kyun ho raha hai? Tere elawa letter ke bare mein sirf main janta hoon…

Dev(sighed)—yeahh got letter again…(went back to stare at the sea)

Sid—Dev don't u think…bahut ho chukka…& its time u put an end to this…afterall har cheez ki ek limit hoti…aur bardasht karne ki bhi…but I don't know teri who bardasht karne ki hadh kaha hai?

Dev—tu janta hai I cant end it…kuch waqt tak toh aur nahi…I can't I promised I wont…

Sid(lost his patience)—do hell with ur promise…Dev, 😡😡 Maya ke Dad made u do that stupid promise …aur tu us promise se chipke baitha hai…

Dev—Sidharth tu

Sid---Don't Siddarth me Dev!! 😡😡 Uncle emotionally blackmailed u…unhone mushkil waqt mein tumhari madad ki uska bahut achi keemat vasool ki tumse…

Dev—aisa nahi hai Sid…

Sid(pissed off)—aisa hi hai Dev…😡😡 (sighed) this is not working Dev!!!Yeh is problem ka solution nahi hai Dev…Har baar Dev…everytime this happens... Every time you get blackmailed because of Maya!!! …Maya goes around flaunting her Boyfriends… and the press takes pictures and they blackmail you kyunki who jante hai… Dev har keemat dene ko taiyaar hai… to prevent those disgusting pictures from being published … Kyunki paise se zyada …apni khushi se zyada …apni chahton se zyada… Dev ko ek mare hue insaan se kiya hua waada zyada matter karta hai…Tumhe ab bhi us insaan ki parwaah hai…jiski beti ne tumhari zindagi barbaad kardi…tumhe apne ghar se door kiya apne pariwaar –massi kabir bhaiyya Rj sabse door kiya… still tumhe uski badnaami ki fikr hai…when she cares a Damn!! Abt u…uski taraf se tum jiyo ya maro it least matters to her…

Dev-- I don't care about her too.

Sid was shocked by the aloofness in his voice…uptil now Dev was always hopeful that one day Maya will mend her ways…she will understand him sooner or later…

Sid—Dev!!fine u don't care…then problem kya hai? Kuch dino se dekh raha hoon something is wrong with u…& I have a feeling it has nothing to do with the pictures…& letters…

Dev (averted his gaze)—nothing…bas tujhse baat karna chahta tha…afterall after I pay the photographers & press accounts tu handle karta hai…

Sid(still not convinced)—bas!! Nothing else? waise jaha tak mujhe yaad hai tu kal dopahar ki flight se aane wala tha…before Rj-khushi leave for honeymoon… kaha tha tu…

Dev—ermm Main…kahi nahi…(he changed the topic) So, how was ur weekend…

Sid (noticed this & by the look on Dev's face he just played along). –nothing usual Lazy Sunday...tu toh janta hai mujhe…wake up late…Late breakfast…Laze around…aur kuch nahin. Haan, lunch ke liye massi ne Lunch pe invite kiya tha…even Sneha ko bhi …Pallavi ne kya lunch banaya tha…Sneha toh usse cooking classes lene ki soch rahi hai…(he noticed as soon he mentioned Pallavi's name Dev's expressions changed) Kya huwa Pallavi ka naam sunkar tum aise…(Dev almost panicked…she clearly had an effect on him…just her name made him react differently)

Dev(as normal as he cud be)--No nothing…Main toh…..

Sid--what is wrong Dev? Pallavi ka naam sunke hi tum……

Dev(stood up)--It's nothing Sid…Main Main… chalta hoon.(when Sid held his hand)

Sid—Dev ek minute… what is happening…(Dev averted his gaze) Look at me Dev !

Slowly Dev turned around, with a guilty look on his face… his head lowered…Not being able to look into Sid''s eyes….

Sid—will u tell me whats happening Dev… I know You are not bothered by the letter…by photographs…but Pallavi ka naam sunke lagta hai ki tumhare hosh hi ur haye hai…What is the matter with you dev?...& frankly Yeh aaj ki baat nahin hai…maine kafi dino se notice kiya hai… You are feeling uncomfortable around her…who saath hoti hai toh u behave differently …usse Naraaz ho?koi galati ki hai usne?...

Dev(looked other way )-- aisi koi baat nahin hai Sid… mai Pallavi se naraaz nahin hoon …main

Sid—toh tu hai meri taraf dekh kar bhi bol sakta hai… Pallavi toh (Sid paused)

Sid looked at his body language…Something was wrong…as soon as he mentioned Pallavi's name Dev's expression changed… Suddenly the look on his face cleared everything….everything that has been happening till now the way Dev behaved around Pallavi…the way he looked at her… Sid had been Dev's friend long enough to notice Dev's changing expression...he noticed how Dev's expression changed when he mentioned pallavi

Sid(cudn't believe he didn't realize it till now)—Dev?....(as realization stuck him he was surprised) Dev tujhe main bachpan se janta hoon & I think I can guess wats wrong…come on tell me main jo soch raha hoon who galat hai? Tell me I am wrong…

Dev(turned his face other way)—I don't know tu kya soch raha…

Sid (made him look towards him)—oh!! Tujhe nahi pata par mujhe teri shakal se pata chal raha hai Dev…ki tum Pallavi se…(angry)tu kya kar raha hai…Dev?

Dev(tried to be ignorant)-main? Kuch nahi...main kya kar raha hoon?

Sid—tu achi tarah se janta hai tu kya kar raha…

Dev(fumbled) –main… ermm I …I don't know (sid was surprised it was quite unusual of so in control Dev to do that) main nahi janta…(he turned to leave)I need to go…

Sid (stopped him from going)—mujhse door bhagne se tu sach se nahi bhag sakta Dev…

Dev—mujhe samajh nahi aa raha tu kya keh raha hai…

Sid—samajh nahi aa raha ya samajh kar samjahna nahi chahta…(Dev turned to look other side) hope you realize what you are doing is wrong…who galat hai…(seeing Dev silent Sid decided to talk directly) if I am not wrong you are falling for Pallavi…Tujhe usse pyaar ho raha …(dev was not surprised Sid guessed it) Dev look at me…(he made Dev turn) Dev tum…(angry) tum pallavi se pyaar nahi kar sakte…is rishte ka koi future nahi hai…its…its wrong Dev

Dev(calmly)—Pyaar karna kabhi galat nahi hota…

Sid(angry)—haan, galat nahi hota…par tumhare liye galat hai Dev…aur I don't think mujhe reason batane ki zarut hai? (sighed)Dev, jab hume pata ho ek cheez hume nahi mil sakti, to usse pane ki umeed nahi karni chaiye…uske peeche bhaagna pagalpan hai…abhi bhi waqt hai plzz stop yourself…

Dev—pyaar ko rokna agar itna aasan hota toh shayad kab ka rok leta…

Sid(irritated)—Why are u not getting the bloody point Dev…😡😡😡 tumhe samajh kyun nahi aaraha is rishte ka koi future nahi hai…its wrong in every sense … Think practically Dev… just listen to me…tum ek aise rishte se umeed kar rahe ho jo sabki nazron mein galat hoga(calming himself) Dev,I know Pallavi bilkul waisi hai jaisi ladki tum apne liye chahte the…to be precise Pallavi se milne ke baad tum wapis badi maa ka sapna dobara jeene lage ho…par Dev, who salon pehle ki baat hai…ab bahut der hogayi hai, waqt badal gaya hai, halat badal gaye hai…tum dono ki zindagiyan badal gayi hai…

Dev—shayad zindagi isiliye badli hai ….shayad waqt hum dono ko kareeb lane ke liye badla hai…

Sid (angry)—Dev…you have gone crazy…😡😡 for god sake Dev You are married…tum…argghh, you are being an selfish emotional fool Dev 😡😡 … Is waqt tum apni khushi dekh rahe ho? Ek baar ke liye socha hai yeh rishta pallavi ko kya dega…siwai dukh dard ke kuch nahi…I agree tum Maya ko divorce dekar Pallavi se shadi kar sakte ho…par zindagi bhar pallavi ko is sach ke saath jeena padega that she was a replacement of Maya…(dev glared at him) she will be considered as gold digger Dev, log tumhe nahi usse galat samjhenge…(explaining him) Dev, who tumse bahut choti hai…13 saal choti….woh tumhari respect karti hai, bharosa karti hai tumpar…aur tum usse jakar bataoge ki tum usse pyaar karte ho…who kya sochegi tumhare bare mein…aur is sab ke bare mein logon ko pata chalega toh kya karoge? I know tumhe auro se matlab nahi hai…par apno ka kya? Do u think massi, kabir bhai, rj, prachi, khushi…who sab is rishte ko accept karenge … aur sab baatein jane do shayad tumhari khushi ke liye , for once shayad sab maan bhi jaye…par Pallavi?…what abt her?…Kya who tujhse pyaar karti hai??(Dev remained silent) Dev, tu uski achai ko, apne liye uski care ko pyaar samjhne ki bhool kar rahe ho…

Dev—who Pyaar kare na kare…mere liye mera usse pyaar karna kafi hai…mere liye itna kafi hai ki main usse pyaar karta hoon…

With that Sid left Dev still standing there staring at the sea…

***

Pallavi rushed to the office…Monday was never her favourite day… and she never tried to hurry on that day because she knew it would kill her mood… but today she practically ran around in her apartment to get to the office as quickly as possible…blabbering to herself

"Mr.khanna office mein sone chale gaye honge…nothing to worry… is a grown man, he can take care of himself…. But that uneasy feeling, the worriness was not leaving her…

Twenty minutes later she reached office in record time…it was just 8am…She ran up the stairs to the eleventh floor…Threw her bag in her cabin and ran up to Dev's office… Without knocking on the door she just barged in.. She looked around…Dev wasn't here…checked the bathroom even…he was no where….it was empty, as she feared…

She returned to her desk…She sat down and buried her head in her hands or a while…

Pallavi—kaha ja sakte hai? Damn me…mujhe pata kyun nahi chala jab who ghar se gaye… kisse poochu? Massi…nahi bekaar mein pareshan hojayengi…ermmm kabir bhaiyaa? wonder if he knows anything….

She looked on her watch….Sid will also come in thirty minutes..guess she shud wait till then…suddenly it clicked her that Dev might have gone to his house…

Pallavi—how stupid of u pallavi ofcourse apne ghar gaye honge…I can check there…she dialed Dev's house number… Ramsingh picked up

Ramsingh—Hello…Mathur House….

Pallavi—ermmm…Main Pallavi…I mean Mr.Dev Khanna ke office se bol rahi hoon unki PA…ermm Sir ghar pe hai… I mean…

When she cud hear a muffled woman's voice on through the receiver she cud guess it must be Mrs.Khanna… & she could make out that the woman was not happy.

Voice--Who the hell is it Ramsingh, kaun subah subah pareshaan kar raha hai…

Ramsingh-- Woh madam…Sir ke office se phone hai… lagta hai who office me nahin hai.

Maya--To mai kya karu? 😡😡 ... wherever he is ...Thank God ki woh yahaan nahin hai…bas…He can go to hell as if I Care…

Maya went back to her room to sleep again…

Ramsingh---ermm Sir toh ghar pe nahi hai…aaenge toh main bata dunga unhe office se phone aaya tha…

Pallavi(dejectedly)—Ok…thank you…

During the call she received an SMS…after finishing call she checked it…

"Cancel my meetings for today. I'm not coming".

--Dev

Pallavi tried dialing Dev's number but it was switched off… she wondered the whole day where Dev could be. She cancelled all his appointments and worked on some files that were due that week…. She tried to call Sid all day but he was attending meetings….

During the day Pallavi called a few other places where she thot Dev cud have gone…but no result...She even called up Khanna house talked to every1…indirectly even asked massi if Dev called…but no one had no idea…Around lunch she saw Sid coming…she tried to ask him abt Dev's whereabouts…but he said he doesn't now… Pallavi felt he was avoiding her…at the end she just gave up and concentrated on her work…

***

She returned home with a glum face …she was dead tired…exhausted…she was in no mood to cook so she had brought along noodles from her fav Chinese restaurant...Noodles were sort of stress buster for her…no matter how worse mood she is in noodles made her feel good...So, after freshening up… she felt little bit relaxed after her tiring Monday…. She took out a plate and fork, along with her noodles she sat on couch and attacked her food….She did not knew she was this hungry, until she started eating. …

Pallavi(to herself)—bhugto…this happens when u have quick breakfast, aur lunch na karo & look for ur boss who does not care even to inform where he is…(she didn't knew why she felt angry on him) doesn't even had the decency to call!...sirf msg kardiya…phone karke bata sakte the kaha hai…kaise hai…but No…(she just hammered on noodles… trying to take out all her frustration on the poor noodles in her plate)

After finishing her dinner…she was cleaning up the kitchen & she was abt to make chocolate drink for her…after which she planned to hit the bed as she had been too exhausted today…when she heard the doorbell ring…

Pallavi(thot to herself checked the watch it was 9pm)—is waqt kaun aaya…(she went on doing her work in kitchen… & shouted "kaun hai?" thinking it to be some neighbor but the door doorbell rang again…sighing she went to open the door…shouting again kaun hai…before she cud reach door…she heard the familiar voice reply.

Dev—Main hoon…It's me…Dev…

Pallavi cud felt her heart relieved & dried her hands rushed to the door… She was just about to open the door when she saw her bare arm and looked at her state…in her spaghetti top & Pjs… Opening the door for her boss in these clothes…realizing this she shouted back…Abhi ayi! Just 1 minute…ran to her room to wear the matching… silk robe…over it…changing into something else wud take time….

Finally she opened the door and saw Dev there with his hair ruffled, his clothes crinkled, obviously looked messed & tired…

Pallavi—ermm aap…come on in plzz…

As he entered…she asked him to have a seat.

Dev—who…main…I mean…I wanted to …mujhe tumse baat karni thi… I mean

Pallavi(smiled)—sure…par pehle Aap kuch lenge?...dinner…aapne kiya nahi hoga…(seeing him silent) aap 5min rukiye main abhi aayi…

Few minutes later…she walked in with the noodles…she hadn't finished all she had bought…

Pallavi(sheepishly)—sorry…(handing him a plate) had just bought them…so…anyways pehle kuch khalijiye….phir aapko jo kehna hai keh sakte hai…

As Dev ate Pallavi kept looking at him…all her frustration vanished on seeing him…whole day she had been hell worried abt him…she had seen last night the state he was in…& he didn't informed any1 where he was…now she sighed in relief…she was just glad he was all right…& had decided to come here instead of being on some unknown location…

Pallavi walked up to the window and stood on the same place where Dev stood last night….from window the faraway sea cud be seen…& the calmness of the night…everything was calm & peaceful…Suddenly she felt as if she was being watched and she turned around... he saw Dev had finished his dinner…

Pallavi (took his plate & went to keep it back)--Aap poora din kahan the Mr.Khanna?...I was so worried…u shud have informed…she went on complaining…but didn't received any reply)

She came back in living room & found him standing near window …she came & stood beside him…

Pallavi—aap kuch baat karna chahte the…

Dev(fumbled a little)—who…main…tum…tumhari Sid se baat hui thi…

Pallavi(nodded in yes)—haan who was little worried for u &…I was searching for u…kuch pata nahi tha aap kaha gaye…So maine Sid sir se poocha tha par unhe bhi nahi pata tha shayad…aapke aaj ki jo meetings thi…(she went on with what all happened in office…abt his schedules…& everything)

Dev—Pallavi…who main jo keh raha tha…I mean main…I…main tumse…

Pallavi—kahiye Mr.Khanna you can …

Before she cud complete her sentence she felt herself being pushed to the wall by her shoulders and looking at her boss' face…& felt herself being Kissed by her boss…all happened in a fraction of second…that she didn't get a time to understand or react...I Love you was the last thing she heard before she felt his lips move on hers….Every movement left a burning feeling on her lips…

For him it was his only goal…ever since he acknowledged his feelings he fought with himself, but this was it….His only desire was her acceptance…more than her acceptance her confession…he just wanted her to know that He loves her…

Since his chat with Sid…he had decided that no matter what happens he gonna confess to her that he loves her…He loves everything abt her… the way she cares for him…understands him…looks after him…worries abt him & now her reaction to the kiss…

Her stomach flipped lightly…Somewhere a soft voice inside her brain tried to scream…Stop him..this is wrong…stop yourself…but his lips played tricks with that voice. The negative turned into positive… The one No inside her turned into Yes…& she went with the flow…she didn't made that one move to push him back…which she shud have…

For it was similar to the dream she had seen since childhood…the dream she saw since she was a little girl…A prince, who would make her his….someone who wud love her…someone wud come up to her & will say He Loves her…Till today that prince didn't had a name or face…but today she feels as if she cud touch that dream…can feel the prince beside her…

He had wanted her to know how much he loved her…moved his hands from her shoulders down her arms to her waist….wanted to touch her… just like she had touched his soul…

He had thought his desire of acceptance would be fulfilled the minute he would touch her...the moment he will confess he wud be over with this heaviness of her heart & his desire will be fulfilled…But the more he touched her, the more his desire left unfulfilled…His unfulfilment made him deepen his kiss…angling her head… His hands still on her waist, caressing it.

Suddenly she felt his hand on her bare shoulder as the silk robe may have slided …Dats was the moment when the positive turned into a negative again…as soon as she realized whats happening…She pushed him away and raised her hand towards her mouth….she was shocked…as realization stuck her….

***

Dev almost lost his balance with her push…it took a moment for him to steady himself..he saw her leaving…this was not what he was supposed to do…he had just came to talk to her…to confess to her..which he thought will make him relieved will make him better…coz bottling it up all inside was being more difficult for him…he was ready to face her rejection…but cant hide the truth that he loves her…he has hidden it for long...its been months…He had thot once he wud confess…take it out & with her rejection

Dev (caught her hand)—Pallavi please…

Pallavi(pulled her hand back…& felt it was her fault)—yeh Maine kya kiya… Maine😭 (tears spilled out her eyes) …I…how cud I…aap You are married…(she still cudn't believe this all happened)…you are my boss…aap… (she kept on rambling…She ran up to her room & closed the door… With her back towards the door she stood there crying… Still rambling) 'Yeh maine kya kiya…its wrong…. Main…(she slided down the door…& broke down crying)

She heard footsteps on the other side of the door.

Dev(banged the door)---Pallavi…open the door…I want to talk to u…tumhe batana hai mujhe…I need to tell u….open the door(he banged again) meri baat toh sunlo…

Pallavi(managed to reply back controlling herself)—Mr Khanna …is waqt aap jaiye yaha se….mujhe kuch nahi sunna…Just Go…

Dev—Pallavi…main kahe bina nahi jaunga…so just open the door…just listen to me once…I need to say …that I love you…(to say Pallavi was shocked was an understatement she got up in a flash & opened the door…Dev sighed in relief)

Pallavi—what did u say?kya kaha aapne…?😡😡

Dev—yahi ki…I love you…(trying to explain) Maine khud ko bahut samjhaaya par…believe me I really tried…bahut lada khud se... bahut koshish ki…yeh baat apne tak rakhne ki…but I cudn't…(holding her from shoulder)…I know mai tumhare laayak nahin hoon…u don't deserve me…par phir bhi…I…

Pallavi(shrugged his hands)—Mr.khanna…aap…u…just😡

Dev(interrupted)—let me say this…bahut dino se dil pe yeh bojh lekar ghoom raha hoon…& I cant handle it more…tumse kehna zaruri tha…ki tumse pyaar hai…(she turned her face other way) Trust me… Maine sach me bahut koshish ki hai khud ko sambhaalne ki lekin...(sighed)I know Main tumhe kuch nahin de paaunga, na shaadi…na ek achcha pati…nothing…par phir bhi…main yeh sach nahi badal sakta that I love you…

Pallavi (now lost her temper)—Mr.khanna just leave my house right now…aapko shayad yeh realize bhi nahi ho raha aap kya bakwaas kiye ja rahe hai…just leave…

Dev—I promise…main chala jaunga…but ek baar mujhse keh do...ki tum bhi mujhse pyaar karti ho…ab tak tumne mere liye bahut kuch kiya hai…just once yeh bhi keh do…

Pallavi—Mr.Khanna u have lost it…😡😡 (she closed her eyes) just leave for once…is pehle main aapko aur kuch bura keh doon…just leave…😡 (she turned to go back to her room)

Pallavi cudn't help but feel guilty herself as she had been at fault she hadn't stopped him when he had kissed her…it was her duty to stop him…it was for her to push him back…but she didn't…she kept blaming herself…Dev cud hear her

Dev(kept banging the door)—Pallavi tum…

Pallavi—Mr.Khanna…mujhe kuch nahi sunna just go from here…You…You are married…this is wrong…I am wrong…meri galti hai…its been me…

Dev(banged door again…almost pleading)—Pallavi…please don't do this…Pallavi ek baar just once….I …I really love you…just listen to me …

At the end Pallavi had to shout --GO AWAY!! Mr.Khanna…GOOO

Pallavi heard him leaving, his footsteps and the click of the door…she dropped herself on the floor, crying…

Hope …Part 12 is OK 😊😊
