Chapter 2 : We Shall Always Stand Together!
After reading the text, Gunjan excuses herself from the gang and goes to the lawn to meet Natasha. She sees that Natasha is lost in her thoughts and plucking petals of a white frangipani flower she had in her hand. Gunjan proceeded towards her and slightly held Natasha's shoulder which jolted her out of her dreams.
"Hey Gunjan. Thanks for coming here. I really need to talk to you about something. A thing which has been haunting me since 3 years. You were one of the best options I could think of to talk to. Hope you don't mind. If you aren't free then we can talk later because this may take a little while." said Natasha all in one go. By her words, Gunjan understood that there is something really big that is haunting because Natasha never spoke so much in one breath.
"Relax Nuts. Feel free to talk to me. I had a lecture but it got cancelled because Deodar Sir has gone on a half day leave." replied Gunjan. They both met with each other's eyes and then Natasha gained confidence.. She started to confide with her problems. "Gunjan, I really feel that whatever I am doing is bad. I mean I should not be really hiding the truth from my brother. RV is such a sweetheart and most importantly he loves me so much. But.. But what am I doing? I am hiding the bitter truth of our lives from him. I know that will break him down. But.. But. But I. I can't . I can't lie to him! Gunjan tell me what should I do? Shall I tell Rajvir all about our parent's MURDER?"
Gunjan has left apalled. She did not know what to say. But she gathered some words and said "Listen Natasha, first of all take a few deep breaths and relax. Next, I think it is a good idea for you to go and tell RV about Uncle and Aunty. I know things might take an ugly turn but if you delay it, it shall get even more ugly. He may take time, but I think he is mature enough to understand you, your concern and insecurities. But firstly; take some time, frame your words, relax and the confront him. And if needed; I shall talk to him and explain things to him.. But before taking any step, control and relax yourself. And never forget, me and Bhai are always there with you and for you! And we both love you both!"
Natasha smiles and hold Gunjan's hand, "thank you so much Gunjan, you are an amazing Sister one can everrr have! I know you are always there with me, and believe me; I am nothing without your support.. Thank you for always being there with me!"
Natasha and Gunjan then both smiled. They started to remember their old times at New York and what all fun they used to have. The memories were accompanied by fights, laughs, disappointment, repent, tears and all possible emotions on this earth. They did not realize when it turned dark and kept on talking and talking.
Soon the gang came out of the college in search of Gunjan and Natasha. Finally they spotted them together, laughing loudly holding their stomach. "Oh, to tum log yaha bethe ho, hum kabse tumhe dhoond rahe the!" exclaimed Mayanak "And by the way, everybody is coming to our house. Mind to tag along?" he added pointing to Natasha. "Ofcourse Mayu.. If you wouldn't invited; then also I would have come!" came a witty reply from Natasha while all the others laughed at her joke.
Finally, everybody left the college premises together in their respective cars to their common destination, MaNjan's house.
*MaNjan's House*
Everybody reached in intervals of 2-5 minutes. After exchanging greetings with MaNjan's parents, everybody settled down in the hall with hot brimming coffee mugs in their hands with cheese sandwhiches and some two minute noodles. They kept on discussing how their lives have taken a drastic turn since three years of their lives. They faced so many ups and downs, good moments and bad ones, appreciations and criticism but they never let these things affect their friendship and trust. Rather, they stood past each other like their support system and never left each other's hand. No matter what bad may have happened.
"Guys, it's such a filmy story.. Just like HUM SAATH SAATH HAI.. Right Diya..?" said the very chirpy Nupur. Gunjan and Mayank made faces on the mention of the flick since they hated Salman from the core of their heart. "Absolutely right Nupur!" replied Natasha. "And obviously Salman is the best!" said Nupur.
"Hayye. Did you see him the promos of *Ek Tha Tiger* ..?? He looked so handsome." "Katrina, I really liked her in the black dress she wore in the song *Mashallah* .. It suited her so much" "Haye, but Salman looked best in that black and white dress.." "You know I saw the movie . It is amazing!" "So true.. Even I saw it ! After such a long time an amazing *Salman* movie has come!" "Hayyyee.."
All the while the two ladies kept on chatting on and on about Salman Khan and his looks in the movie. They failed to notice that the others were getting bored.
Soon the others realized that they are so many of them, they should have fun and let the Salman Maniacs chat. They started to play a round of Dumsharaads which did not distract the two. They both went on and on about Him for 2 whole hours.
