Recap: All the friends plan what they are going to perform for their college fest. Humeira tries to speak to Ayaan about their engagement while Ayaan is least bothered about it and is not serious too about it. Humeira is worried and unknowingly reveals to Nikhat about the events which took place much to Nikhat's horror. Nikhat attempts to end her life, while being stopped by Farhaan and gives her a dose of encouragement. Nikhat comes to class next day without make up as per Farhaan's suggestion and Farhaan starts falling for her simplicity and good heart. Zoya makes a plan and makes Dilshaad and Rashid attend the holi party and works it out...
Part-22
Location: At home:
Ayaan was sitting so upset in his rocking chair with his guitar, while others were doing their work sitting nearby.
Nikhat: Ayaan, you finished your assignment?
Ayaan: Yeah yeah.
Asad: What happened yaar?? Why are you so depressed??
Imraan: A. R. Rahman would not have selected him for his next project!!
All of them started laughing at Imraan's statement and Ayaan threw the football nearby at Imraan.
Ayaan: Already I am so irritated and you are irritating me even more Imraan!!!
Farhaan: What is your problem Ayaan??
Ayaan: College fest is going to be there in another 4 weeks and I did'nt get a duet singer for me yet.
Zoya: That's it??? Why do you want a duet singer?? Sing alone as you usually do na??
Ayaan: That is the problem Zoya!! They want a duet song this time!! But no girls are suiting for that. No one is singing from heart, they are just singing for the sake of it.
Nikhat had an idea clicking in her mind.
Nikhat: Ayaan, you are searching for a singer outside when you have one near you only!!
Ayaan blinked at her statement and looked at Tanveer who was sitting next to him.
Ayaan: Tannu, you sing also??? You never said me!!! Imraan stopped you from telling it???
Tanveer: No no, I don't sing. Only if I sing I will tell you na???
Nikhat: Arey!! I meant Humeira!!!
Humeira had a sudden shock when Nikhat suggested her name.
Humeira: Main...???
Ayaan: Humeira???
Nikhat: Haan!!! She really sings very well. I am sure she will suit your singing!!
Humeira: No no!!! I can't do this. I just sing simply but singing on a stage and such is impossible for me!!!!
Ayaan: Humz, just give it a try na?? Please yaar!!! See if you can do it, or else its up to you!!!
Humeira was hesitating to agree for it when Nikhat whispered to Humeira.
Nikhat: Humz!! You won't get a better chance than this to get close to him. And you remember, Ayaan usually says that his girl must be a good singer??? I am sure he will start falling for you through this opportunity!!! And I said you na??? Getting you and Ayaan together is my responsibility!!!
Humeira: You think this plan would work??
Nikhat: 100%. Trust me!!
Humeira finally agreed to Ayaan and he was happy about it.
Ayaan: Okay Humz!! So tomorrow night, we shall start practicing!! Okay???
Humeira: Alright!!
Asad: Hmm, so your problem is solved now???
Zoya: Come everyone. Let's have lunch.
Everyone walked to the dining table and Farhaan called out to Nikhat.
Farhaan: I have never seen a girl like you in my entire life!! Humeira must be so lucky to have a friend like you!!!
Nikhat: No Farhaan. We all are equally lucky to have such friends. Not only me, everyone over here is ready to do anything for the other's happiness!!
Farhaan came to her: But you are some one special!!!
Saying so, he left from there, while Nikhat too smiled at Farhaan's statement and joined the others.
Location: Next day at Girls room:
It was a holiday and Zoya was arranging her shelf, when Tanveer came with a note to her.
Zoya: What note is this Tannu??
Tanveer: How will I know?? Your boy friend gave this to me to give it you!!
Zoya got the note with a smile and was blushing.
Tanveer: How much will you blush darling???
She laughed and went out, while Zoya opened the note.
"I want to take you to an important place today. Be ready!! "
Zoya: Important place??? May be another date??? (She smiled thinking about it and continued her work)
Location: In the car:
Asad was driving silently, while Zoya was looking at him.
Zoya: Oye!!! What are you thinking so deeply???
Asad: Nothing!!!
Zoya: No. Something is wrong with you!! You are hiding it to me!! Tell na???
Asad: Wait for some time!!!
They drove off somewhere.
Meanwhile at house, Farhaan came to the kitchen to have his breakfast but the boxes were empty.
Farhaan: Nothing is prepared???
He searched for food and didn't find anything over there. Tanveer was walking over there.
Farhaan: Hey Tannu!! Why haven't you guys prepared anything?? No one had food today???
Tanveer: Actually Farhaan, today we guys don't have anything.
Farhaan: But why?? Anything special???
Ayaan: Its Asad's parents' death anniversary today!!!
Farhaan: Ohhh!! Well, I am sorry guys!! I didn't know it.
Ayaan: Every year, this day, Asad won't be having any food. After meeting him even we guys joined him in this. As a token of respect to his parents!!
Tanveer: But if you want you can have food. We won't compel you!!
Farhaan: Come on guys!! When you all can do this much, why won't I??? I will also join you guys in this!!
Farhaan too joined the rest and they were happy about it.
Meanwhile Asad reached the place with Zoya and Zoya was looking at the surroundings weirdly and realized it was a graveyard!!
Zoya: Asad, why have we come here??(Confused)
Asad: Come with me. I shall tell you.
Asad took her inside and stood in front of two graves.
Asad: I wanted to introduce you to my parents Zoya!!! (Pointing towards the graves) My Mom and Dad!! Its their 22nd death anniversary today!!!
Zoya looked at the graves with a sad face and looked at Asad in a consoling manner.
Asad: You know what Zoya?? I never come to visit them. Its been years since I have come here. Actually I had taken a vow over here.
Zoya looked at him wondering what it could be.
Asad: They left me alone in this world without thinking about me how I would survive without them. And I was angry at them both because of that. I promised them that, only when I get someone in my life to be with me and fill the void they have created in my life, I would come and visit them with that special someone!!!
Zoya was emotional listening to it.
Asad took Zoya's hands and faced the grave.
Asad: Here Mom!! I have come with that special person today!! My reason to live, the girl for whom my heart beats!!!
Zoya's eyes were filled with tears. Asad turned towards her and took both her hands in his.
Asad: Zoya, before you came in my life, I always had the pain of being alone in this world. My friends reduced that pain to an extent. But I never showed that pain to them. After you came, I understood the meaning of my life!!!
Zoya was happy and emotional hearing it.
Asad: Promise me that, you too won't leave me alone like my parents!! I can't bear another loss in my life Zoya!!! You won't leave me and go na??? (His eyes filled with tears)
Zoya: I promise you today in front of your parents Asad!!! Whatever may be the situation, even if I will have to fight with the entire world, I will never ever leave your side!!! I promise you!!!! Your parents can rest peacefully here!!! I am here to take care of you!!
Asad was emotional listening to it and Zoya hugged Asad and they had an emotional embrace. They both knelt down in front of the graves and prayed over there.
Location: At home:
It was night time and Ayaan and Humeira were sitting outside with a fire set up over there. Ayaan was adjusting his guitar strings.
Humeira: Ayaan, do you really want me to do this?? I mean do you think I can sing with you???
Ayaan: Why not Humz??? Nikhat has given me very good reviews about you!! I trust her and you too!! Sing yaar!!! Think about the thing which is very close to your heart and sing your heart out!!!
Humeira: But...
Ayaan: Alright! I shall start and you join me. Okay???
Ayaan started singing "Chahun Main Ya Naa" and Humeira was admiring his way of singing and Ayaan signaled her to continue. Humeira continued the song along with him and sang with Ayaan in her mind; the person whom she loves the most!!!
Ayaan was totally swept off with her beautiful voice and enjoying the song. She finally finished the song and Ayaan was still looking at her awestruck.
Humeira: How was it Ayaan?? (In an expectant manner)
Ayaan's ears were still ringing with her song. Humeira shook Ayaan and he returned back to reality.
Ayaan: Yeah Humz??
Humeira: I asked how is my song?? You didn't like it??
Ayaan: This is not fair Humz!!!
Humeira: Why Ayaan?? What happened?? (With a disappointing face)
Ayaan: Not even once you said me that you sing this well!!!! I was searching for a singer the whole college when I had one with me all the time. I mean you have a mind blowing voice Humz!!! You felt the song and sang it. That's what I wanted!!! Amazing yaar!!!!
Humeira was happy listening at his comments and blushed at it.
Humeira: So tomorrow shall we continue the practice?? I have to do my assignment now.
Ayaan: Haan. No problem.
Humeira walked inside with a smile in her face, while Ayaan was looking at her only without a blink of the eye.
Ayaan: (In his mind) I am in love with you...I mean...your voice Humz!!!
Humeira turned back at Ayaan suddenly.
Humeira: You said something Ayaan???
Ayaan was stunned at her question and wondered how she found out when he was speaking in his mind.
Ayaan: Nothing Humz.
Humeira went in, while Ayaan smiled and went in with his guitar.
Location: Boys Room:
Asad was sitting in his bed and chatting with Zoya in his mobile. Imraan was playing chess with Farhaan. Ayaan was stringing the guitar slowly and was lost in thoughts about his singing with Humeira.
Imraan: Kya hua Ayaan Miyaa??? Lost in some world???
Asad: He is always lost only dude!!!
Farhaan: Hey Ayaan!!! (He tapped his shoulder) Kya hua???
Ayaan: Nothing Humz!!!
Asad: Humz???
Ayaan realized what he had said just then and tried to manage the situation. Farhaan had a smile in his face, realizing that Nikhat had done the perfect move!!
Ayaan: I mean Farhaan...
Imraan: Well, how was your practice with Humeira?? Is she good???
Ayaan: She has a gifted voice dude!! I always wished for someone who could match my tunes. She is just the one I was waiting for!!! (Thinking about her)
Farhaan: Ayaan, you are telling about your song partner or life partner??? (With a teasing smile)
Ayaan: Huhh...song partner yaar!!
Imraan: Whatever...sleep soon dude. Tomorrow by 8 we have to reach college. Holi party hai!! Yaad hai na???
Ayaan: Haan.
Imraan: Asad, you can chat the rest tomorrow. Sleep yaar.
All of them retired to their beds, while Humeira was disturbing Ayaan's mind.
Location: Next day at College:
The whole college was dressed up in white dress and it was so colorful around. Rashid and Dilshaad too were present with the others.
Asad to Zoya: Hey Angel!!!
Zoya: Yes handsome!! (Winking at him)
Asad: Plan kya hai???
Zoya: You have to ask Dr. Rashid to express his heart to my Aunt today telling that my Aunt is in love with him and she is waiting for his proposal!!!!
Asad: What??? How will he accept to it?? And what if your Aunt doesn't have any such feelings???
Zoya: Acha??? Without loving him only she has a folder of Dr. Rashid's photos right from their college days in her laptop???
Asad: Really???? Are you serious???
Zoya: Haan Asad. I went to her office the other day and she wasn't there. Some papers were lying down and when I went to take it, the folder was open in her laptop. Anyways, we have to get them face to face today and start their love life!!!
Asad: Hmm, sounds good!!! So I have to go now right???
Zoya: But before that...
Zoya took out her water pistol and sprayed it on Asad's kurta and ran way from there laughing. Asad was looking at his drenched shirt and was smiling.
Asad: I will get back to you Miss London!!!
Asad walked away while, Ayaan, Imraan and Farhaan were making a tub ready with coloured water. Nikhat and Humeira were playing throwing colours at each other.
Tanveer: Where is my pichkari???
Nikhat: I saw it with Ayaan.
Tanveer: Idiot!! Always steals my things only.
Tanveer went to Ayaan, and tapped him hard. As Ayaan was standing on the verge of the tub, he fell right inside the tub splashing water around. All of them started laughing.
Tanveer: Oops!!! Sorry yaar!!
Ayaan: Mummyyy!!! (Peeping out from the water) Stupid girl!!! Can't you call me?? Am I deaf???
Imraan: Hahaahaaahaaa!!!!
Ayaan: You are laughing????
Ayaan pulled him too inside and they had wonderful time playing over there.
Meanwhile Dr. Rashid was standing at a distance and looking at Dilshaad. Asad went to his ears.
Asad: Sirrr!!!!!
Rashid turned back at Asad and gave him a weird smile fearing that Asad would have seen him looking at Dilshaad.
Asad: So you also have feelings towards her??? (In a naughty way)
Rashid: You also mathlab??
Asad: Dilshaad Ma'am also likes you na??? You know that right???
Meanwhile on the other side,
Dilshaad: Rashid????
Zoya: Haan!!! I said you na Aunty??? That I will get you a life partner this Holi and you have to accept it???
Dilshaad: But how will Rashid accept to it???
Zoya: Which means you like him???
Dilshaad: Well...not actually...but... (She started blushing)
Rashid: Dilshaad too loves me??? (With a sense of happiness)
Asad: She loves you since so much days and you are not expressing your heart only to her!! If it goes this way, she will get heartbroken and might marry someone else!!!
Rashid: Nooo!!! I didn't tell her these much days thinking that she doesn't have any such feelings towards me. Well what you want me to do now???
Asad: Propose her in this colorful day and add color to your black and white life!!!
Dilshaad: No no!!! I can't do it!!! What if Rashid doesn't have any such feelings???
Zoya: Only if you tell to him, you can know what is in his mind na???
Dilshaad: But Zoya...
Zoya held Dilshaad's hand while Asad brought Rashid there and they both came face to face. Asad and Zoya showed thumbs up to each.
Rashid: Well Dilshaad, I wanted to tell you something.
Dilshaad was surprised that Rashid was speaking as if he is going to propose her and was looking at him expectantly, while Asad signaled Rashid to tell it out soon.
Rashid: Wo...will you...I mean...I want to...
Dilshaad understood Rashid's intentions and smiled looking down. All the friends were standing nearby and waiting for the proposal.
Rashid: I...wo...
Dilshaad took a handful of red color in her hand and spread it on Rashid's face and smiled looking at him.
Dilshaad: I accept!!!
She walked away from there out of shy while all of them clapped at the cute proposal of the long term lovers!!! Rashid was shocked and happy at the same time and looked at Dilshaad who was looking at Rashid and walking away.
Asad and Zoya gave a hi-five to each other. Nikhat went and got back Dilshaad.
Nikhat: Guysss!!! Time to party!!! Farhaan, play the song!!!!
Farhaan played "Balam Pichkari" and they started playing with the pichkari and threw colours at each other and were dancing and enjoying the party. Rashid also joined with the guys. Asad chased Zoya to put color over her and she ran inorder to avoid being caught. Asad went through another route and caught her. He carried her and threw her in the tub of water. Asad too jumped in and they had a nice time playing in that.
Nikhat, Humeira and Tanveer were attacking Ayaan with buckets of colored water. While playing, Humeira slipped and fell over Ayaan, while Ayaan caught her. Both Ayaan and Humeira's hearts were thumping hard in the proximity. Ayaan found her new as if he is seeing her for the first time. They both composed themselves.
Humeira: Ayaan, I am sorry.
Ayaan: Its okay Humz!!
Humeira spread color on his face and laughed.
Humeira: I said sorry in advance for this!!!
She ran to go, when Ayaan pulled her back. They both were close to each other.
Ayaan brought his face close to her and rubbed his face with her face and even her face was filled with color.
Ayaan: Sorry to you too!! (He had a naughty smile and went from there)
Humeira was looking at him stunned at his action, while Nikhat tapped at her.
Nikhat: What was that Humz????
Humeira: Nothing Nikhat...
Nikhat: I guess your song has done its magic!!! (Winking at her)
Humeira blushed at her statement and ran from there. Nikhat turned to go when she saw Farhaan standing at the back.
Nikhat: Yes Farhaan???
Farhaan: I need you to give ideas for me also very soon!!!
He smiled and left from there while Nikhat was thinking what he was talking about.
All the friends had a beautiful colorful holi and enjoyed to the core.
Location: After two days at class:
Imraan and Tanveer came rushing to everyone in the class.
Tanveer: Guys!!! A happy news!!!
Asad: What???? Ayaan got suspended???
Ayaan kicked him and they were laughing at it.
Tanveer: Hahaa...nahi Asad!! You guys have to come for an event soon!!
Zoya: Event???
Imraan: We both are getting engaged this weekend!!
All of them were surprised and happy at the news and congratulated Imraan and Tanveer.
Ayaan: But why so soon Imraan???
Imraan: I said my mom about our relationship status and our parents were very happy that they wanted to engage us immediately!!!
Rashid: No invitation for me???
Rashid came inside as it was his class that hour.
Imraan: Of course Sir!!! Without you??? You and Dilshaad Ma'am must be there at any cost.
Rashid: Where is it??
Tanveer: In Jaipur!! We will afford your flight tickets and you are staying in our house only!!!!
Nikhat: Jaipur??? Wowww!!!
Rashid: Ohh!! Then I will have to compensate my classes this week!! I shall speak to Dilshaad also about it!! You guys will have to cooperate, okay???
Ayaan: As you say Aalampanah!!!
All of them had a hearty laugh and went to their places for the class.
Precap: Humeira gets an anonymous call from someone and that person is irritating her by telling that he is in love with her. Ayaan finds out about the call and is disturbed. Next day he sees that guy misbehaving with her, and Ayaan furiously tells him that how dare he touch his fiancee!!!! Asad, Imraan and Zoya are equally stunned as Humeira; hearing Ayaan tell that. Asad plans to dance with a partner for the college fest and Asad and Zoya have a romantic dance at night outside their house in the rain for the song "Bheegi Si Bhaagi Si".
