there is party time in #SS room as peeya has scored an A grade in her first tutorial and everyone is happy because they are packing their bags for a much before planned three day weekend trip at a resort in the outskirts of the city... alka is busy smashing potatoes in the kitchen, anu has almost dozed off on a couch and peeya again hit her head because dev has completely gone nuts...

Dev- ...BASS YE WEEKEND HAI...PHIR MOTI HELEN KA SIYAPPA HAI...JEE BHARKE KARLO MASTI...ISS BAAR NO RESTRICTION FROM PAPA HAI... ABHI TOH PARTY SHURU HUI HAI!!!!😆

as alka and peeya joined in dev tried to wake up anu...

anu- haaa PARTY... PAR...!!!!!🥱

rajat- excuse me what is MOTI HELEN???😲

dev- that is what ur father calls ur maa ryt???😉

rajat- haa, but how do u know???

dev- that is not important but just let me know what r u doing here and that to so late in the evening, humne toh invite nahi kiya!!!😡

and now rajat goes towards anu, the main purpose of his visit to their room...

rajat- anu... anu... anu... arre utho!😃

anu- HAA... MOTI... HELEN... MOTI HELEN KA...🥱

rajat-(loudly)- ANUSHKA SHASTRI, I say wake up RIGHT NOW!!!!😡

as rajat shakes anu she wakes up suddenly!

rajat- anu go and pack ur bags fast, we are leaving for the orphanage ryt now! 😃(and anu is scratching her head!!!)

dev- abhi anu ko kahaa leke jaa rahe ho????😲

rajat- ghar se bhagaake!😉

anu- par rajat who trip toh toh next week k liye planned thi naa???😕

rajat- pre pone ho gayi, tum ready ho jaao, main neeche wait kar raha hu!😊

and as anu comes down with her luggage she sees shastri lecturing rajat of how he should take care of his daughter, how she gets unwell frequently, what dose of medicines she needs, what kind of food she should have and not have and like any obedient child rajat listens to each and every word of shastri... and finally AnuRaj leave for their a bit long journey to a small town near the highway for a regular health check up of war widows and orphans...

both of them were excited for the time they were going to spend with their family and now one day had to subtracted from the three because of their professional commitment but the way they were heading to was the path they both really wanted to go on after a one hour drive they finally reached their destination to meet some young and some old women along with many many kids!!!😃

after the breakfast next morning half of their day was spent in conducting counseling and therapy sessions for women and some teenagers, vaccinating the babies and running behind kids who did not like medicine and hated injections and as they had accomplished their task anu sat on the bench with cool evening breeze blowing through her hair as she sipped coffee and enjoyed a bite of her favourite cookie but more than the crunch of the cookie what she enjoyed was the sight of rajat enjoying playing cricket with kids and letting them cheat to win. a smile appeared on her face as she relaxed...😳

her face seemed even more brighter in the moonlight as she tried to count the twinkling stars when he sat beside her, they both did not speak a word but the calmness on her face certainly helped him unwind after a tiresome day...😳

they drove away to their picnic spot as soon as the sun rose but just to land up in the wrong place because neil had texted him the wrong address actually the place where he went to party with his friends the last weekend and confirmed to rajat that it is the right place even when he asked thrice!!!

just about to tell her about the rest of the plan for the day he turned to see her feeling dizzy and almost fainting, as he held her...

rajat- anu, tum theek toh ho😲

and she did not have the energy to even speak a word and then he checked that her body temperature was increasing along with the lowering of her blood pressure level so he immediately booked a room and called the doctor who adviced that she should have proper food and then proper rest.😊

she woke up with a heavy head to see that he was busy typing something on his laptop and the clock had struck 3:00 p.m.

anu- rajat...🥱

rajat- oohhh tum uthh gayi ruko I will order something for lunch!😃

anu- rajat hum yahaa kyaa kar rahe hai, humme toh sabke saath hona chaahiye naa😕

rajat- anu, the place where u wanna go is at the other end of the city, aur apni haalat dekho, u cannot travel in this condition, hum kahi nahi jaa rahe tum rest karo phir hum ghar waapas chalenge!!!😃

and as they both enjoyed every bite of garma garam roti with butter paneer, she insisted...

anu- rajat, humme kahi ghumne jana hai, I don't wanna stay here like this!!!😒

rajat- the manager has told me about a lake near by tum abhi rest karo hum sham ko chalte hai😉

anu- thank u...

in the evening, walking on the slippery path beside the lake she almost slipped when he tightly held her and she crossed the rest of the path holding him...😳

anu- rajat I was 12 when my mother passed away...😔

rajat- lekin ye sab abhi ...🤔

anu- u know I have never met a kind hearted soul like u toh dil kar raha hai that main aap pe bharosa karu...😳

and he was overwhelmed listening to all her words and as they both settled in the grass lawn

rajat- by the way anu, mujhe bhi tum ko ek secret bataanaa hai, bolu kya???😉

anu- zaroor bataaye!😳

rajat- u know why my dad calls mom MOTI HELEN???😆

anu- rajat, pls not again, I m sorry!😔

rajat- arre don't be u know once upon a time I saw mom dancing for my dad on a cabaret number and I suppose that was some Helen song from a shammi kapoor movie🤣 (and he giggled)

anu- tauba tauba rajat, u peep into ur parent's bedroom like this!!!

rajat- ohh hello, I actually did not realize at that time k ho kya rahaa thha in fact mom was looking cute in her red gown 😉

and her palms covered her whole face...

rajat- yaar I was just four years old and eventually I realized that it was exactly after that night that mom was expecting neil 😛

anu- rajat bass humme aur kuch nahi jaanaa (as he could see her turn tomato pink!!!) btw do u want a wife who dances for u on any Helen song???☺️

rajat- actually I never thought of it but u really seem interested...😉

and she tries to change the topic

anu- dekhiye na rajat lake mein paani kitna acchha hai, lets go boating and rajat just smiles seeing her awkwardness!😳

the clock struck 12 and she really seemed like a sleeping beauty lost in her dreams cuddling with the cushion, it was after a long time he had seen someone sleeping so peacefully. he turned to see the full moon which made the view out of his window picture perfect and he heard her murmur something which he was hardly able to understand but he was sure he was bargaining with someone...😕

and actually she was bargaining with rajat the doodhwala in her dreams, in her semi conscious state he did not understand what exactly was going on but she continued with her lecturing to him. je again looked at the moonlight and felt its soft touch on his face but suddenly DHADAAAM and she yelled in pain half on the bed, half on the floor breaking the water jug kept on the side table...

rajat- anu tum theek ho, zyaadaa dard toh nahi ho raha???😲

anu- rajat aap yahaa, aap toh sapne mein...😕

rajat- mere sapne dekh rahi thhi???😳

anu- haa pata nahi kyon aap doodhwaale banne thhe, aapko fancy dress mein jaanaa thha kya???😕😆

rajat- anu, main ek air force officer hu doodhwala nahi!!!😭

anu- wooh hum hum hum woooh aap...🥱

rajat- acchha tum so jaaooo, relax, sab theek hai😊

the slight brush of her nose against his cheek made him wonder that her nose is so pointed when he helped her with the seat belt as she was dozing on the seat beside him because he actually did not let her sleep the last night waking her up thrice to give her medicines then tucking her hair behind her ear he drove back to their home sweet home...😃

all of them were more than happy to see anu and rajat safe back home, all enquired about anu's health condition and shastri again took rajat's class about how he had informed him about anu's health condition and still both of them did not care at the right time!!!👍🏼

and now rajat enquired from peeya...

rajat- acchha suno, tumhaari didu ko ye neend mein bad bad karne ki aadat kabse hai???😕

peeya- kyon kal kisse ladaai ki??? paper waale se, sabzi waale se ya kisi dukaan waale se???😉

rajat- kal toh usne mujhe hi doodhwala banaa diyaa...😭

and now peeya was imagining how will rajat sareen the doodhwala look!!!!
