In The Evening...

Sid went to Sana's home with a flower bouquet. As soon as Sana opened the door, she saw Sid with the flower bouquet and narrowed her eyes.

"What's this Sid? Tu ghar pe bhi yeh sab leke aa gaya....."

Before she could complete, Sid said, "Tere liye nahi hai. Itni bhi importance mat de khud ko."

Saying this, Sid entered the house and gave the flower bouquet to Parminder Ji.

"Arrey Sid puttar! Kitne dino baad aaya tu humare ghar." Parminder Ji said. She became happy seeing Sid.

"Woh humara phir se project ka kaam suru hua hai na isliye...."

"Accha? Toh jab jab project ka kaam hoga tu sirf tab tab humare ghar aayega. Bhala yeh kaunsi baat hui? Yeh tera hi ghar hai. Jab chahe aa sakta hai."

"Paata hai yeh mera hi ghar hai. Isliye ab toh aana jaana rahega." Sid said and gave a naughty look to Sana and got a death glare from her.

Parminder Ji smiled and said, "Woh sab toh thik hai Puttar. Lekin yeh flower slower kis liye?"

"Aap ke liye. Woh kya hai ki Mummy, itne dino baad main yaaha aaya isliye socha aap ke liye le aau." Sid said.

"Mummy? Tune mujhe Mummy kaha?" Parminder Ji asked.

"Mummy? Teri himmat kaise hui meri Mummy ko Mummy bulane ki?" Sana asked angrily.

"Unhone hi toh mujhe Puttar kaha. Isliye maine bhi unhe Mummy keh kar bulaya." Sid explained.

Then he looked at Parminder Ji and asked making an innocent face, "Aap ko accha nahi laga Mummy? Agar aap ko koi problem hai toh main aage se aap ko Mummy nahi bulaunga."

"Arrey mujhe kyu bura lagega? Tu ab se mujhe Mummy keh kar hi bulana." Parminder Ji said.

Sid smiled while Sana kept staring at him angrily.

"Mission Mummy accomplished!" Sid said in his mind.

After that Sid and Sana went to Sana's room.

"Project ke liye jo jo samaan chahiye laa ya hai?" Sana asked.

"Jo kuch tha mere paas, le aaya hoon. Baki ka kaal lab se collect karna padega." Sid said while taking out the objects from his bag.

"Woh kaal dekhenge. Filhaal humare paas jo bhi hai uss se suru karte hai. Aur sun, jab tak tu iss kamre mein hai, sirf project pe focus karna, koi faltu baatein karne ki koshis bhi mat karna."

"Aur kamre ke bahar?" Sid asked.

Sana didn't reply and started doing the project work. Sid also started doing the project carefully as he knew if he didn't do so, his Ms. Solution would kill him.

"Sid, woh sellotape zara dena." Sana said.

Sid was coming close to give Sana the sellotape, but Sana stopped him by her hand and said, "Dur se. Table pe rakh de, main le lungi. Kaha tha na maine distance maintain karne ko?"

Sid rolled his eyes and kept the sellotape on the table. Sana took it from there.

"Iska yeh distance wala rule toh main break karwa ke rahunga." Sid said in his mind.

After sometime, Parminder Ji brought two cups of tea and snacks for Sana and Sid.

"Thik thak chal raha hai project ka kaam?" Parminder Ji asked.

"Haan Mummy!" They both said at the same time and then looked at each other.

Parminder Ji smiled and said, "Abhi thoda break le lo. Thak chuke hoge."

They both nodded.

She put the tray on a table and left from the room.

"Kitne pyaare lagte hai dono bacche saath mein. BabaJi aap dekhna, dono ke bich mein humesha aise hi pyaar bana hai." Parminder Ji said in her mind before leaving.

Sana went near the table and took her cup. Suddenly Sid got an idea.

"Sana, mera cup bhi pass karna." Sid said.

"Khud aa ke le le." Sana said.

"Dekh rahi hai na main kaam kar raha hoon. Abhi yeh bich mein chhor ke nahi jaa sakta. Tu jab table ke paas gayi hai toh le aa na mera cup bhi."

"Main nahi laungi. Itni hi fikar hai kaam ki toh baad mein chai pee lena."

"Thandi ho jayegi. Phir main Mummy se complaint kar dunga ki teri wajah se mujhe thandi chai pee ni padhi."

Sana became annoyed and took Sid's cup.

"Acche se jaan ti hoon main, yeh bas mujhe paas bulane ka bahana hai. But you know what Mr. Shukla, main tumhe successful hone nahi dungi." Sana said in her mind.

She started moving towards Sid. He smirked as he thought that he was successful. But Sana didn't come close and stopped at a distance. Sid noticed it.

Sana was going to keep the cup on the table, suddenly Sid said, "Arrey kya kar rahi hai? Iss wale table pe mat rakh. Galti se bhi chai gir gayi nah toh saara project kharab ho jaayega. Mere haath mein de de yeh cup."

Sana made an irritated face and stretched her arms to give him the cup.

"Dekh Sana, mera na iss waqt catch catch khel ne ka bilkool bhi mood nahi hai. Paas aa kar de na." Sid said.

Sana looked at Sid angrily and said, "Main iss se zyada paas nahi aaungi. Aise le na hai toh le warna bhad mein jaa."

Then she turned her face. Sid had no other option left. So he also stretched his arms to take the cup.

As Sana was not looking at Sid, She left the cup before he could take it properly and the hot tea fell on his hand by mistake.

"Ahhhhh!" Sid screamed in pain. He hand was burning.

Sana became scared. She immediately came near Sid and took his hand in hers.

"Oh Shit! I'm so so sorry! Paata nahi kaise gir gaya. Bohut dard ho raha hai nah?" Sana said being worried.

Sid noticed her worried face and tried to hide his pain.

"It's ok Sana. Teri galti nahi hai. Aur main thik hoon." He said. But his hand was burning like hell.

"Kya it's ok? Mujhe dikhai nahi de raha kya tera haath kitna jal chuka hai? Sab meri wajah se hua hai." Sana said.

Suddenly she thought something and said, "Tu ruk main abhi aati hoon."

Saying this, Sana left the room.

After sometime she came back with a bowl full of ice water and an ointment.

She put the bowl on the table and said, "Yaaha apna haath daal zaldi."

Sid dipped his hand into the ice water and felt relieved. When his pain reduced a little, he took out his hand from the ice water.

Then Sana made him sit on the bed. She also sat beside him.

"Apna haath de." Sana said.

"Kya karegi?" Sid asked.

"Ointment lagaungi aur kya?"

"Iss mein toh dard hoga. Mujhe nahi laga na."

Sana took his hand forcefully and said, "Nahi hoga. Tu bas hilna mat. Apna haath aise hi rakhna."

Sid nodded.

Sana started applying the ointment carefully on his hand.

Moh moh ke dhaage

Moh moh ke dhaage

When she was doing this, Sid looked at her with full of love in his eyes. He remembered the day when his knee got injured during football practice. He found no difference between then and now. Though their relationship changed a lot, she was still the same caring Sana for him.

He chuckled seeing her care.

hmmm...

Yeh moh moh ke dhaage

Teri ungliyon se ja uljhe

Yeh moh moh ke dhaage

Teri ungliyon se ja uljhe

Koi toh toh na laage

Kis tarah girah ye suljhe

Hai rom rom iktaara

Hai rom rom iktaara

Jo baadalon mein se guzre

Yeh moh moh ke dhaage

Teri ungliyon se ja uljhe

Koi toh toh na laage

Kis tarah girah ye suljhe

After applying the ointment, Sana stood up and took her cup of tea. Then she went near Sid and said, "Teri chai toh meri wajah se gir gayi. Isliye main apna wala share kar rahi hoon."

"Sana iski koi zaroorat nahi hai...."

Before he could complete, Sana said, "Pakka maine bas thoda sa hi peeya hai."

"Tune peeya hai?" Sid asked suddenly.

Sana nodded.

"Toh phir de de." Sid said and smiled thinking something in his mind. But Sana couldn't understand it.

She gave the cup but Sid couldn't take it as his hand was burnt.

"Oh! Main bhool gayi thi." Sana said and again sat beside him. She made him drink the tea with her own hands.

Tu hoga zara paagal, tune mujhko hai chuna

Tu hoga zara paagal, tune mujhko hai chuna

Kaise tune ankahaa, tune ankahaa sab sunaa

Tu hoga zara paagal, tune mujhko hai chuna

Tu din sa hai, main raat

Aa na dono mill jaayein shamon ki tarah

Yeh moh moh ke dhaage

Teri ungliyon se ja uljhe

Koi toh toh na laage

Kis tarah girah ye suljhe

After Sid finished drinking, Sana stood up and put the empty cup on the tray.

"Ek baat kahu Sana?" Sid asked.

"Haan bol." Sana said.

"Yeh distance maintain karne wali rule toh tune khud hi tod di." Sid said teasing her.

Sana became a little bit embarrassed and looked down. She also blushed unknowingly.

"Mission breaking rules accomplished!" Sid said in his mind.

Ki teri jhooti baatein main saari maan loon

Ki teri jhooti baatein main saari maan loon

Aankhon se tere sach sabhi

Sab kuch abhi jaan lu

Ki teri jhooti baatein main saari maan loon

Sid and Sana again started doing the project work.

As Sid's hand was burnt, Sana didn't let Sid do much work and herself did them. She also helped Sid a lot while doing the project.

Tezz hain dhaara, behte se hum awaara

Aa tham ke saanse le yahaan

Yeh moh moh ke dhaage

Teri ungliyon se ja uljhe

Koi toh toh na laage

Kis tarah girah ye suljhe

After finishing their project work, Sid and Sana came downstairs.

"Kaal milte hai." Sana said.

Sid was about to say something, suddenly his eyes fell on Parmimder Ji.

"Arrey maine toh socha main dinner kar ke jaunga. Aur tu mujhe abhi se bhaga rahi hai?" Sid said dragging Parminder Ji's attention.

Now Sid's naughty mode and Sana's angry mode was on again.

"Yeh sahi rahega. Tu dinner kar ke hi jaa." Parminder Ji said.

"Nahi Mummy. Har waqt iski marzi nahi chalegi. Aaj ke liye project ka kaam ho gaya hai, isliye isse ab jaana hi hoga." Sana said.

"Rehne di jiye Mummy. Aap ki Beti mujhe bhaga kar hi maanegi. Lagta hai aaj bhi phir se Hostel ka khana hi khana padega." Sid said in a dramatic way.

"Tu bhi nah Sana! Jab woh dinner karna chahta hai toh kyu rok rahi hai bichare ko?"

"Par Mummy...."

"Tu mere saath aa." Parminder Ji said and took Sana with her to kitchen.

"Tu aise kyu behave kar rahi hai Sid ke saath?" Parminder Ji asked in a low voice.

"Kyu ki main nahi chahti woh aur zyada der yaaha ruke." Sana said.

"Lekin kyu? Tu toh pyaar karti hai uss se....."

"Please Mummy!" Sana's face became serious.

"Main nahi karti uss se pyaar. Woh sab bas mera bachpana tha. Aur kuch nahi. Yeh pyaar vyaar sab bekaar ki chize hoti hai. Main ab bas apne studies aur career pe focus karna chahti hoon." Sana said.

"Lagta hai tu naraz hai Sid se. Aur tab hi Sid tujhe aise maana ne ki koshis kar raha hai. Haan, uska tarika thoda atrangi hai, lekin woh tujhse bohut pyaar karta hai. Aur mujhe yakeen hai, Sid tujhe zald hi maana lega." Parminder ji said.

Sana didn't say anything.

Sid overheard their conversation and smiled sadly.

"Mummy aap bilkool sahi ho. Main Sana ko zald hi maana lunga. Kyu ki Sana chahe kitna bhi jhut bol le, I know woh mujhse pyaar karti hai. Agar woh sach mein mujhse pyaar nahi karti toh aaj mera haath jalne se itni pareshaan nahi ho jaati. Isliye aaj nahi toh kaal maan na toh usse padega." Sid said in his mind.

After sometime, the doorbell rang.

Sana went and opened the door.

"Papa!" Sana said and hugged Santokh Ji.

"Arrey aaj aap itni zaldi aa gaye?" Parminder Ji asked.

"Haan woh aaj kaam ka pressure thoda kam tha. Aur aaj night duty bhi nahi hai." Santokh Ji replied.

"Phir toh accha hi hai."

Suddenly Santokh Ji's eyes fell on Sid.

"Yeh kaun hai?" Santokh Ji asked Sana indicating Sid.

"Papa yeh Sidharth hai, mera friend. Hum dono saath mein school project ka kaam rahe hai. Isliye woh yaaha aaya hai." Sana said.

"Hello Uncle!" Sid greeted Santokh Ji.

Santokh Ji gave a slight smile and then went to his room to change.

Sana came to Sid and said in a low voice, "Yeh Papa hai mere. Tujhe toh paata hi hai. Inke saamne na zyada oversmart ban ne koshis mat karna. Yeh sab Mummy ke saath chalta hai, Papa ke saath nahi. Aur agar tune phir se kuch ulti seedhi harkat ki toh main Papa se teri complaint kar dungi. Phir tu seedha jail ke andar. Yaad rakhna."

Saying that Sana left from there.

"Papa!" Sid mumbled.

"Toh Sana tak pohuch ne ke liye ab mujhe uske Papa ko impress karna. Sid Beta, suru ho jaa. Mission Papa starts." Sid said in his mind.
