"Main antaryami to nahi hoon na Arjun... Challo andar chal ke dekhte hain." she gave a sarcastic reply. As they entered the room the team looked at them like children who'd done something bad and were about to get a scolding from their parents.Chhot's hair was messy and out of the usual ponytail. Shree and Sameer were pretending to read a file, while they both were holding them upside down. Liza was "talking on the phone", till it actually went off in her hand and Ayesha was cleaning(?) the file closet?!
Arjun was just looking at them with his no nonsense look. He noticed they were standing infront of the glassboard where they usually put their clues on. Only now there was a white board standing in front of it.
They walked over to the board, but there's nothing written on it. "Arjun, help me move it!" she ordered him.
"don't you mean Arjun move it?" he asked sarcastically.
Arjun moved the board in a few seconds, and behind it they saw what the team was so desperately trying to hide. There were names of the teammembers and some sort of chartflow on it. But Arjun and Sakshi noted quickly, there names weren't there. Behind each persons name was a month written and also an amount of money. they then noticedthe title: When are ArAkshi getting together?
"Wohhh wohh sir, hum woh.." Shree started, "Rathore sir, bataye na!"
"Kya Sam? I mean sir.. Haan woh yeh hai... It's a board on which we've placed our bets, ke tum log kab ekdusre ko apne feelings ke baare mein bataoge."
"Kya secret rakha Ayesha," Sameer said under his breath.
"Guys, I didn'tknow ke tumlogo ko aisi burri aadat thi jua khelne ki!" Sakshi said jokingly. "Waise bhi, we aren'teven allowed to date according to the rules."
"Are Sakshi, tu ghabru nakkos mala parwangee aahe sagle kai baher aadhalala aahe" Chhotu said. (Don't worry, maine pata lagaya hai, it is allowed.)
"Waise Sakshi aur main tumlogo ko bolne aye the ke tum sab humare saathaaj raat dinner kar rahe ho. lekin abhi yeh board dekh ke, rehne hi do, hum akele chalte hain." He put his arm around Sakshi, and before turning said: "Yeh board kal subah tak gayab hona chahiye, abhi Samjhe ya..."
Sakshi laughed out at seeing the way Shree and Chhotu almost collided tryingto clean the board.
When they were at the door she turned around and said: " Arre haan, Sameer, tum jeet gaye."
"Kyaa?!" Everyone said. And although everyone was happy for the couple, they grudgingly started paying Sameer as he laughed, "Tumlogo ka chief main aise hi nahi bana, I do know ke sabke dil mein kya chal raha hai."
