1. FRIEND'S MARRIAGE
(PART 1)
Dilshad packed everything in the suitcase and sealed it. She put it on the floor and ordered the servant to place it in the jeep waiting outside the mansion. Asad heard the horn and ran towards his window. He saw a jeep and friends waiting for him. He rushed towards the wardrobe , pulled out some casuals and got ready. Asad was naturally attractive, there fore he didn't need much to do,as of geeting ready. He sprayed some extra ordianary perfume and was all set to go. He came down in living room, he saw his parents waiting.
"I will miss u baccha! Take care of your self, have your supper and lunch on time. If needed anything, just give me a call and ill be there!!" said asads mom, to what asad replied- "sure momy, but I am 25 now and I don't think so I need your help, cause il handle it my way" and he hugged his mom and dad ,and rushed towards his friends waiting for him.
There were 3 childhood friends of asad in the jeep,their journey was to dehradun to attend a wedding of 4th childhood buddy, who has already been relocated to dehradun. Vijay,shashank , shawn and asad was all set for their journey all the way to DEHRADUN. They all were excited for the trip, the rituals , the adventure and to explore. They had fun on the way to their destination. They all were drunk. Sung some music.Had some masti. And finally when they had hangover, vijay parked the car on the side of a garden. He was not in the state to drive. The other two shashank and shawn were fast asleep and asad was busy in his laptop going through his project work. Vijay picked up a beer can and stood out of the jeep. He walked a little mile and sat on the bench under the wide open sky. Asad finished his photoshop work and found the two of them sleeping whereas vijay was missing. He went out in search of vijay, he walked towards the lawn area and found vijay relaxing on the bench, he walked near. He saw vijay staring at the sky. He was not aware of this gesture. He sat beside vijay , "where lost brother?",saidasad. "nowhere, just looking at the huge sky, the stars, the clouds passed by, and feeling the breezes that's soothing my skin",replied Vijay.
"Really, you are not vijay. Infact you were never like this before. You have changed..what is the reason behind such a drastic change in you?" asked Asad.
Vijay remained quite and removed out the wallet from his pocket, he opened the wallet and showed it to asad - "this is the reason that made me a human, who brought the best out in me, who taught me to live life to fullest, who stood by me when I was alone struggling"by saying dis he broke his silence. Asad understood whom vijay was talking about. He pat vijays back and said "no worries , once we finish this wedding , we'll make sure you are the next one". To this vijay reacted weird and in anger he replied "stop yea... You know I love her so much and I cannot think of marrying someone else!".
Asad yelled in anger " so why you left her? Why you didn't take a stand for her? Why you left her side? And no please don't give me a silly reason that your family was against your relationship with her, just because she was lower class and different caste. Bro we were ready to handle this situation our way, but no you didn't wanted to hurt your parents that made us backoff from our plan. But u definitely made a wrong decision of dumping her and not even trying. You lost coz you didn't take initiative to atleast try and convince your parents. You left that girl like this without her fault. You would have been man enough to hold her hand and stood by her side, but you lost it and you lost her." With a deep sigh he ended this conversation.
Vijay was touched by his words and he realized the mistake he had made in past and vowed that anyhow he would win her heart and win her bak for lifetime.
He thanked asad for making him realized, they hugged each other and the whole night they cherished their friendship, they became nostalgic , with drinks and snacks they continued their talks. Meanwhile the other members in the car also came finding them and joined them.
By around 5:00 AM in the morning the next day, they all started for their half left journey. They had fun in their journey. It was for the first time they were going together but every time they had a trip, they made sure they make it the best one and a memeorable one. By 11:00 PM in the night they reached Dehradun city. Asad have never visited such a beautiful place in own country. He always experienced the beauty of overseas countries. Asad was excited to capture the nature. They all reached the Hotel in mean while. It was but obvious a 5 star hotel as it was a big fat wedding Punjabi wedding. The groom was standing on the entrance of the hotel to welcome his chaddibuddiyaars. He hugged veryone and thanked them for coming. To this vijay replied, "rulayegakyapagle"and they all Laughed over this. Varun (groom) headed over to the rooms and showed the boys their accommodation.
"so boys this is your room, ill send your food in the room, get fresh quickly",commanded the groom. "cumonyaar, lets party...you have just few days left. Rest of your life you are gona become a scape goat. So get a life mahn", said Shawn. To this they all decide to take the groom to the nearest pub and spend some rowdy time.
(after an hour they all get ready except asad)
"asad bhai kab hoga tu ready? Dude we are already set to go. Hurry up bro! tanki khatam karegakya hotel ki ?""vijay yells at asad.
Asad replies, "guys you all move ahead, I will meet you all in the pub"
"ok bhaijaan, we are leaving. You can take our groom car and meet us in pub. Catch u soon." Replied vijay. (they all board jeep and left for their party)
(after few minutes, asad comes out o the washroom and he sees someone leaving his room)
"Excuse me! Hello !!!", Asad asks the lady, but she already leaves the room.
Meanwhile the room service guy enters the room.
"yes?" asad asks the room service guy in arrogant way.
Room service guy gives a confuse look.
"What kind of hotel is this? Anyone can enter anyones room without any prior notice and without any reason? Who was the lady? Why was she in my room? And then what are you doing here?" asad asks tumbler of questions to the room service.
"ohhh that lady is the assistant manager, Miss zoya Farooqui. She is the assistant manager over here. She must have come for inspection of rooms." , replies the room service.
"ohhh...ok fine. You can continue with your room service. And please make sure the room is clean every hour", after saying this Asad leaves the room.
(asad heads towards the lift, the lift opens and he enters inside. He press the destination button . Meanwhile he sees a lady waving at him , with scarf around her face. He couldn't makeout her gestures. When he see her running towards lift he holds the door open for her.)
"hashhh...thanks to god!!! hope today I wont be late for home", the lady murmurs.
"excuse me?" , Asks Asad.
" yea, thanxx to you too. If today you wouldn't have hold the lift for me , I would have again been latefor home. And Maai would have scolded me again. And the manager, he is heartless. He has no mercy at all. He lets alone girl work till this time. You just tel me is this right?", ends the lady with her long talk.
(Asad stares at her with surprise, that how come such a delicate girl can talk non stop, without any pause)
"what? Ohh sorry ! now stop staring. Here is the exit" , says the lady and walks off.
"what the hell was that. I mean seriously was she nut." ,asad thinks and goes towards the parking area.
He sits in the car and drives towards the exit gate. He learns that a girl is towards his car. He immediately applies the break. Asad pisses off and gets out of his car. In anger, he holds the girls hand, and turns her towards him.
"what is wrong with you? If you are planning to suicide, just go and jump off the cliff, or you have trains here. Why you choosing to die with my car? " , with anger in his eyes he scolds the girl.
To this the girl gives a sweet smile. This makes asad further angry.
"chillax. You are the same guy, from the lift!!! Hello this is Miss Zoya. Really sorry that I pissed you off today. But cant help it. Actually I have no plans to die. And also m not desperate to run in front of your car, but I have lost something inside the hotel and that's the reason I am running to find it." Answers zoya with the smile throughout her conversation.
Asad ignores her and moves towards his car.
"what kind of man is he? Alone girl has lost something and he is not even asking for help" , murmurs zoya.
Asad turns behind. Walks behind her.
"hurry up", Says Asad to zoya.
"haawww, I don't need anyones help. I am brave enough. I am working here since past three years. I know this place better than you. So I don't need your help." Says zoya.
" don't you think your mouth runs more then your legs?" asks asad while leading her towards the hotel.
" huhhh...i don't think so" says zoya with making her face ugly.
"if you are done with making faces, should we go and seach for your lost property?"says Asad and leads towars the hotel.
(they both enter the hotel and zoya runs to her cabin to find the lost stuff and comes out with the bracelet in her hand)
"here it is", says zoya with a grin on her face.
"you wasted my time for this shit? "asad asks zoya with frustration.
"excuse me ! mind your language. You have no idea what this bracelet meant to me. And I never approached you for help, infact it was your choice to help me. So please don't blame me.", answers zoya and leaves from there in an auto.
"this girl is impossible', says asad to himself and leaves for the bachelors party.
(asad reaches the pub and meets his friends)
"bro don't you think, you are little late", says vijay.
"little? No he is extreme late", cosses Shawn.
"I know guys, but even I was stuck because of that nut', answers asad.
"who, what are talking about", asks the groom."
"miss zoya Farooqui, I mean she's impossible. Non stop radio. I wonder how can someone talk so much when its not even needed. Anyways I wasted lot of my time on her rubbish, lets not waste further time. Lets party bro."says asad and they start with their bachelors party.
(next day morning the alarm rings, Asad being punctual, gets up immediately. He takes shower and gets ready. He wakes up all)
"guys I am going for the shoot. I want to capture the natures beauty over here. So please get ready and meet me on that hill"asad says and along with his camera he moves on.
(while walking down the stairs , he bumped zoya and all the breakfast that zoya washolding falls on the ground)
"oh mister, why are walking like a blind? You always create a problem for me. Now manager is going to yell at me. Who is going to fix this. Already I am late . I have promised my someone to spend time with them, and look what you have done.", zoya yells at asad in a bad mood.
" Il talk to manager. Il fix everything. So stop yelling and get back to work", asad says rudely and leaves from there."
""such a heartless person is this", zoya thnks and gets back to work.
(asad reaches the hill. He gets down of his car. He is touched by the greenery, the monsoon showers , the silence , the birds in the sky , everything. He pulls out his DSLR and strts to capture each and every hidden beauty in his camera.)
While capturing photos, he see a young girl from a long distance with some kids having fun in the rain. Asad couldn't makeout her face as she is facing her back. But asad is mesmerized by her gestures. Her love for rains. Her love for kids. Her kindness. He is trapped of her gestures. Her long black hairs, her bangles.
Asad is mesmerized with her beauty though he cannot makeout her face.
He tries to capture their moments in his camera and hardly gets some good snaps.
Asad walks towards the girl to find out who is she, but as soon as he reaches her, his friends crosses his way and therefore she moves out of his sight.
