Ashi's Room at night:
M.P. and Vrinda were listening to music...someone knocked at the door.
"Come in....."said Vrinda singing alonwith the tape.
"Hey girls....I'm really sorry to disturb you like this....but do u know where's Ashi?"It was Yuvi.
M.P.and Vrinda exchanged a look and then M.P.replied "Uhhhh...pata nahi....par wasnt she with you?"
"No....I mean yes....she was with me...but then she said she had some work and would call me later.....she still hasnt called.....I'm so worried...."said Yuvi anxiously."I figured out u guys must know something...."he said hopefully.
"Oh!"said M.P.briefly.
"So.....?"said Yuvi giving both of them a questioning look.
"Well....so wat?"asked M.P.
"Where is she?"he asked desperately.
"Vo hamare saath nahi hai...."said M.P.silently begging Vrinda to support her but Vrinda wasnt paying attention to her.She was looking at Yuvi.
"Oh very smart....vo mujhe dikh raha hai....that's why I asked where is Ashi?"he said now getting impatient.
"Listen Yuvi....cant u just let her be???Cant u give her a break....Tumko uske baare mein sab kyun jaanna hai?Why...?"asked M.P.losing it completely.
Yuvi was totally shocked to hear something like this."WHY?wat do u mean by Why.....I'm her boyfriend and that's why...."
"Yuvi listen please..."Vrinda said finally."Uhhh... Ashi ne hume bhi jyaada kuch nahi bataaya.....only that she's going out with her mom...."
"Her mom??"asked M.P.with a genuinely confused look."Ouch!!...haan haan...yaad aaya....yeah....she's going with her mom...yeah...."added M.P.hastily as Vrinda kicked her.
"Alright girls...agar Ashi aaye...then tell her I was worried and was searching for her.....will you?"
"Ok...sure Yuvi..."said M.P.with a smile which was more as a relief.
And with one last look at both of them...he left the room silently.
"Oh God!!"said M.P. with a sigh of relief wen Yuvi went."Aaj toh bach gaye....Mate...tumhe kya hua?"she asked now to Vrinda.
"Kuch nahi M.P.....aaj the way Yuvi was so worried for Ashi....he loves her so much....uski aankhon mein maine aisa pyaar dekha...jo aaj tak maine kabhi Aman ki aankhon mein bhi nahi dekha...."and suddenly a look of deep disgust came on her face.
M.P. noticing this asked her."Kya hua Vrinde...usne phir se kuch kiya....?"
"Nahi M.P....par rehne do....why r we wasting our time talking abt him....lets talk abt Yuvi.....M.P.mujhe lagta hai ki--"
"Ki hume Yuvi ko sab sach bata dena chahiye...."said M.P.imitating Vrinda.
"Haan...."said Vrinda.
"Come on mate....stop being Satyavadi Harishchandrika....."
"Par M.P....."
"Mate....ashi ne kaha hai na ki vo Yuvi ko bata degi.....but not now...so chill...."
"Haan.... par....."
"Par-var kuch nahi...."said M.P."And remember...humne Ashi ko promise kiya hai....tum vo toh todna nahi chahti na..."
"Haan....lekin....."
"Nothing.....just forget abt it.....no.... SHUT UP!!"she yelled as Vrinda opened her mouth to protest again.With that both of them fell silent.
Nothing could be heard except for the hard breathing of the three of them.......
Yuvi standing outside the door had been listening to each and every detail.
