Dev and Natasha were walking towards her parent's house when Natasha said, "pata hai Dev....maine suna hai....yeh jo nayi ladki Sonakshi hai....bahut chaaloo type ki hai....usse Delhi se medical college se suspend kar diya tha.....tabhi wo yahan aayi hai.....aur ussne aate hi bahut ladkon ko pataa bhi liyaa hai.....tum zara bachke rehnaa"

Dev knew Natasha had a habit of exaggerating facts, "Natashaaa....tumhein yeh sab kahan se maloom hota hai?.....I don't think so.....jab se aayi hai wo bechaari surgical floor parr hi rehti hai.....kahan time milta hoga usse? Uske baare mein aisi faltu batein mat karo. Tumhein galat news mili hai" Dev tried to defend Sonakshi.

"Dev tum bahut innocent ho....she is not a bechaari....just because you are a workaholic, you think everyone is like you.....tumhein impress karne ke liye tumhare saamne kaam karti hogi....I know her types...."

"OK...OK...whatever" he knew there was no point in arguing with her "chalo ghar aa gaya....." He rang the doorbell.

"Aao, Dev beta....bahut din huye....." Sulekha received them at the door.

"Natasha, beta oopar jaao....dad wait karr rahe hain" Sulekha ordered.

"Aunty main chalta hoon" Dev said

"Arre, Dev!" Pawan Gujral was descending down the stairs, "Aao, baitho, baitho"

Dev could never say "no" to Pawan Gujral.

Dev and Pawan sat down "Main coffee bhijwati hun" said Sulekha

"Beta, tumse kuch baat karni thi...." Pawan finally said

"Haan, kahiye sir..."

"Beta....ab finals aa rahe hain.....tum toh jaante ho Natasha kitni nervous ho jaathi hai exams ke time....main chahtaa hoon, tum usska zara zyaada dhyaan do...just be more understanding.....I hope you understand....just try to spend more time with her......try to keep her happy......I know after MBBS, she will not work in any clinical field.....usska interest bhi nahin hai.....may be kuch hospital administration mein kaam karr legi......she really likes you......you know that.....i hope you understand what I mean...."

"Aap tension mat lijiye sir, I will take good care of her" Dev finished sipping his cup of coffee and stood up.

"Aur haan Dev, next year Neurosurgery ke liye sirf ek opening hai...Dr Mani ne doosri seat kissi UK ke student ke liye reserve kar di hai....so the competition is going to be tough my boy....." Pawan shook his hand as Dev departed.

Pawan and Sulekha Gujral looked at each other after Dev left......Pawan had given enough hints to Dev that his spot in the Neurosurgery program would be guaranteed if Natasha was taken care of. They were keen on Dev marrying Natasha. They both had managed to conceal from rest of the world that Natasha suffered from Paranoid Schizophrenia. That is why they were very protective about her. They did not want Dev to know either; at least till he married her.........

(Author's Note- Patients with paranoid schizophrenia are out of touch with reality, they tend to be paranoid about people trying to harm them, they can become delusional and live in their own imaginary world- in this case Natasha has been under the delusion that she will marry Dev one day and she gets paranoid about any woman getting close to Dev.....so far Dev has not suspected that Natasha has an illness....he thinks she is just possessive)

Dr Pathak, the chief of Psychiatry came downstairs after checking Natasha (that is why Sulekha had asked Natasha to go upstairs), "Dr Gujral, maine Natasha ki medicines ki dose change karr di hai....hope that will help and get her through the finals......" he shook hands with Pawan and bid goodbye.

Dev walked back towards the men's hostel. He passed the women's hostel on the way and stopped for a moment, "Wonder, Sonakshi kaun se room mein rehti hai?" He walked towards the guard, "Mujhe Ms Sonakshi se milna hai" he could not resist seeing her one more time tonight.

"Sorry, sir, 10 baje ke baad, no visitors in ladies' hostel...."

"Ohh, sorry" Dev started to walk away when he heard some laughing and giggling noises approaching the hostel. It was Riya, Sneha and Sonakshi returning from the library.

"Oh, Dev! Tum yahaan kya karr rahe ho? Natasha toh hostel mein nahin rehti....pataa hai naa?" Sneha could not control her laughter.

Riya also joined in, "Bechara Dev....bina Natasha ke kitnaa lost lag raha hai......poor thing! Ha....ha....ha." Dev just tightened his fist in anger.

Sonakshi felt bad for Dev; for some reason she thought Dev had actually come to meet her, "Dev...wo hostel ab visitors ke liye bandh hai....." Sonakshi spoke politely

"I know....I was just returning from Natasha's and I wanted to lend you this book on Pancreatic cancer....that is why...." He lied as he gave her the book he was planning to read that night.

"Thanks.....OK...Goodnight!" they all waved and went inside.

"Kyon pareshaan karr rahi thi bechaare ko" Riya teased Sneha

"Aisa mauka bahut kam miltaa hai....you know ....warna toh Natasha hamesha chipki rehti hai...." Sneha replied

Sonakshi somehow did not like the idea of "Natasha chipki rehti hai" and went off to her room. "Why am I bothered? Why is he letting him be the laughing stock of everyone in the college?......But its none of my business......" thought Sonakshi

Dev was disappointed, as he could not spend more time with Sonakshi. With hands in his pocket, he looked up at the moon- how come he had never noticed the moon looked so beautiful on a clear night like this? Why was he beginning to notice these things?....he walked, smelling the fragrance of the flowers in the beds adjacent to the
Street and started whistling to a song playing at a distance on someone's radio.....

Pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho
Pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho
Jeevan meethi pyaas yeh kehti ho
Pal pal dil ke paas...

Har shaam aankhon par
Tera aanchal lehraye
Har raat yaadon ki baaraat le aaye

Main saans leti hoon
Teri khushboo aati hai
Ek mehka mehka sa
Paigham laati hai
Mere dil ki dhadkan bhi
Tere geet gaati hai
Pal pal dil ke paas tum rehte ho

Pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho
Pal pal dil.. pal pal dil..

We're all alone
That mean all riled up
Gonna give you what you like to hold on
Yeah... hold on...

Fall all over me
You and me is destiny
When we are to be flying free
Yeah this ain't no fantasy
Come over we can't go on and on
On and on...

Kal tujhko dekha tha
Maine apne aangan mein
Jaise keh rahi thi tum
Mujhe baandh lo bandhan mein

Yeh kaisa rishta hai
Yeh kaise sapne hain
Begaane hokar bhi
Kyun lagte apne hain
Main soch mein rehti hoon
Dar dar ke kehti hoon
Pal pal dil ke paas
Tum rehte ho (rehti ho...)
Pal pal dil ke paas tum rehte ho
Pal pal dil...
Pal pal dil...
