SLICE-24
Karan is shocked to see Preetha.For a moment,he looks at her face he is really seeing her.He then sees her fully and only one word comes into his mind.
Karan(mind): Beautiful!
A smile adores his face seeing her in the sea green outfit but,
Karan(mind): what is she doing here?
He is looking at her who is speaking with the girls but searching for someone.
Karan(mind): kisko dhund raha hein yeh? Mujhe......Isse pata hein kya mein yahi honga? Ya kisi aur ko dhund raha hein?
On preetha's side,
Preetha is not actually speaking but nodding to whatever the girls are saying.She is searching for Rishi who left her with them.
Preetha(mind): Rishi.....where are you?
While she is looking here and there,Rishi comes to her,takes her with him and this shocks karan.
They went to a side,
Preetha(annoyed): Ahh Rishi kaha chale gaye thum? Wo ladikiyan meri dimaag kha rahi hein......
Rishi nods,
Rishi: heinaa? ladkiyan aise hi hein...... irritating!
She glares him,he sees her confused,
Rishi: thum mujhe aise kyun dekh rahi ho?
Preetha: kya bola thum abhi abhi?
Rishi: Wo girls are irrita.....
Then he realizes why she is glaring him,he chuckles to himself,
Rishi: Meine ladikiyon ko bola thumhe nai.
She sees him angrily,
Preetha: kya?
Rishi couldn't control and laughs,
Preetha: Just shut up....Thumhari wajah se mein yaha hu.Thanks bolne bajaay thum mujhe irritating bol rahe ho.
She huffs and turns her face away,Rishi stops laughing,
Rishi: Ok ...ok sorry
She doesn't turn so he turns her to him,
Rishi: Mickey ......mein bas thumhe cheda raha tha.ab thum aise gussa math ho........thumhe pata heina? saari ladikiyan ek taraf meri Mickey ek taraf hmm( she doesn't look at him,he lifts her chin) . hey sorry bola na mein.Dekh tho sahi!
She looks at him reluctantly,his eyes show his apology and she smiles.
Preetha: Thum(she slams on his chest)....thum... hamesha aise hi karthe ho pehle mujhe chedathe ho fir manaathe ho.
Rishi(attitude): hak hein mera!
Listening him she remembers something,
Karan: hak hein mera!
Karan said the same a while ago,what he might be doing? She is thinking about him when Rishi nudges her,
Rishi: kya hua?
Preetha: kuch nai......ab kya?
Rishi: Mr.Sharma ko milna hein.
Preetha: hmm.....
She looks around,
Preetha(mind): I could have spent time with ma and di.
She sighs thinking about them unaware that karan is present in the party and seeing them pointedly.
Karan(mind): What's happening?Rishi yaha kar raha hein? Preetha yaha kya kar rai? Yeh dono yaha kyun aayi?
He is thinking about them when he hears,
"Karan Sir"
He frowns and turns to see who is calling him that too with "Sir". He gets shocked to see Aadya standing before him smiling but he keeps a calm facade.
Karan: Miss.Sharma
Aadya: Hello Sir.....Good evening.
Karan: Good evening ......aap yaha?
Aadya smiles,
Aadya: It's our party sir.
Karan is confused,she understands his confusion and about to say when Mr.Arun comes in between,
Arun: Hey karan!Meet my daughter,my everything......Aadya....Aadya Sharma.
He is surprised and shocked,he didn't expect her to be his daughter actually he is not interested to know about her,
Karan: Ohhh......I didn't knew it Mr.Sharma.
Aadya: That's ok sir .......
Arun(confused): Sir?
Aadya: Yes dad he is our lecturer in college.
Arun: What?
He looks at karan who is giving a small smile,this is everybody's reaction whenever they know about him,
Arun: But why?
Karan: I enjoy teaching.It's like a stress burster for me.
Arun: That's.... that's very different karan.Actually I never saw any business man teaching the kids because we spend all the time thinking about making money but you are spending your time for teaching.A very good step.
He pats Karan's shoulders while he smiles at him,
Arun: So are you enjoying the party?
Karan: Yes it's really good.
Arun: Ohh then I have to thank Aadya.She is the one who organised it.
Karan: I am knowing many things today......You organised very well Aadya.You have good talent.
Aadya blushes listening his compliments,
Arun: Ok then you people talk I will be back.
He is about to leave when a voice stops him,
"Mr.Sharma"
He turns to look at the boy and a girl beside him.They seemed to be shocked looking at him but he doesn't know that they are shocked looking at karan and aadya.Same with them too.The boy composes himself and sees Arun,
Rishi:Hello Mr.Sharma this is Rishi....rishi mehra
Arun shakes his hands seeing him,he had seen him somewhere,
Rishi: Mr. Santosh Mehra ka beta hu.
Arun(amused): thum Mehra ka beta ho tabhi mujhe aise Laga ki meine thumhe dekha kahi........you are just like your father. Anyways good to see you Rishi.
He hugs him,
Rishi: Same here Mr.Sharma
Arun: Mr.Mehra kaha hein?
Rishi: Actually dad is busy he tried to come here but urgent meetings came upon so he couldn't.He asked me to send you his regards.
Arun(smiles): That's ok.....No problem.i will meet him some other time.
He sees Preetha beside him,
Arun: waise who is the pretty girl beside you?
Rishi smiles instantly,
Rishi: She is Preetha Arora.....my.....
He pauses and looks at her dearly,
Rishi(mind): my fiance.When will I introduce her like this?
He smiles to himself and completes saying,
Rishi: .......friend.
Arun: Hello Preetha.
Preetha is too shocked to see karan,she couldn't respond,Rishi nudges her,
Preetha: He....hello Mr.Sharma.
Arun: You are looking beautiful Preetha.What's your father? Is he also a businessman?
Preetha: He is....
Before she says,
Aadya: He is some.... doctor dad.
Aadya brushes it off,Rishi gets angry on her tone and about to say something but preetha holds his hand and smiles,
Preetha: Yeah he is a doctor.
Arun: Great....by the way you people know eachother?
He is confused about Aadya and Preetha as aadya answered his question,
Rishi: Yeah actually we three are batch mates and karan sir is our lecturer.
Arun(surprised): Ohh....... isn't it like student teacher meeting?
He laughs making the others forcibly smile
Arun: I am just joking ..... don't think it as your college.Its our party so talk and enjoy not like student and teacher but as my guests.hmm?
They smile to him and he leaves.As soon as he leaves,Karan and preetha look at each other,Rishi looks at karan,aadya looks at preetha.....after a moment,
Rishi: Good evening Sir
He wishes karan who is looking at Preetha, listening him karan looks at rishi
Karan: Good evening Rishi.
He wishes back and looks at preetha,
Karan: Good evening Preetha.
He wishes first shocking preetha,
Preetha: Good evening s...sir.
Karan nods,seeing aadya beside him,
Rishi: Hi aadya
Aadya(forcibly): Hi......aap log yaha?
Rishi: Actually hame kuch aur plans tha par last minute mein change huyi so here we are.
Aadya smiles gritting her teeth.
Aadya(mind): Preetha yaha kyun aayi?ab isse hothe hue sir ko impress karna bahut mushkil hein mushkil kya? Wo meri taraf bhi nai dekhega(she sees karan looking at preetha) Meri sara hard work mitti mein mil jayegi.......Shit! No....no..... She should go now then only I can talk with him.
Aadya: a...ab Rishi thumhe kuch plans bola? What are they?
Rishi: Wo......we planned to go for disc tonight but dad asked me to come here as he don't want to disappoint your dad.We cancelled the last minute.
Rishi knows about Aadya's father as she beats drums about him,their companies.Her attitude is the result of their status and that's why he don't like her.Whereas Aadya too knows about Rishi's father and his company but she just don't consider or like anyone.
Aadya: Ohh then preetha must be upset about the sudden change.
Rishi nods,
Aadya: Why don't you go now?
They all look at her surprised,
Rishi: What?
Aadya: Yeah...... you attended the party and met my father.What else? You can go now.
Rishi thinks about it,
Rishi: But your father?
Aadya: Don't worry I will tell my father that you got an emergency.You people go and enjoy I would have also joined you but you know I have to be here as it's our party.
Rishi nods happily,
Rishi: You are right.....we can go now.(looks at preetha)What say Mickey?
She don't know what to say,she wants to stay as karan is here and she also want to go with Rishi.She glances at karan who is silently listening everything and she nods saying yes.
Aadya feels happy,Rishi too,
Rishi: Good then......Mickey is really excited about our plan I thought I would upset her but it's going on the track again.Thanks for the help Aadya.We will take a leave.......
As they are about to leave karan intervenes,
Karan: Wait Rishi
Rishi stops and looks at him,
Karan: It is not good to leave the party like this.Your father may feel bad knowing this and Mr.Sharma too.
Before he completes
Aadya(hurriedly): That's ok sir no problem....let them go I will speak with him.
Karan: No Miss.Sharma I know how these parties affect......they can create friendship and can destroy it totally affecting the business.That's why we people try not to escape any important parties.
Rishi thinks about what karan said,his father specifically asked him to attend it but he also thinks about his plans with preetha,
Rishi: Yes sir but.......
He looks at preetha,karan understands what he wants to say,
Karan: Stay another half an hour then you can leave.
Preetha sees Rishi contemplating,she puts her on shoulder comforting him,
Preetha: He is right.We just came here and if we leave like that it won't look good.Just 30 mins more Rishi.....not a deal.
Rishi nods,preetha sighs,Aadya grits,karan smiles.
All the sudden decisions and persons makes Preetha a little bit tense so she decides to have a drink,
Preetha: hmm.....Teddy I will just come.
Saying she turns,
Rishi: wait.....
Rishi holds her hand stopping her,
Rishi: Where?
Preetha: Drinks counter.......Need some juice.
Rishi: No need to go there.They are being served.
Thinking it as an opportunity to send them away,
Aadya: No Rishi.....only hot drinks and cool drinks are served.If you want juice you have to go to the counter.
Rishi: Then I will bring you what you want you stay here.
Preetha: No teddy I can go
Aadya(sweeto): Why don't you both go? (They look at her) I mean I selected the menu so there are many kinds of juices which you not even heard of.You can go and see the menu preetha I am sure you will like it.
This surprises preetha and rishi as why is she behaving so sweetly,
Rishi: That's a good idea.Come I will join you even I want to have some drink.
Preetha nods at him and looks at karan,he is just still.Rishi holds her hand and she goes with him.
Aadya sighs happily seeing them leaving,
Aadya(wantedly): They make a good couple.
It looks like she said to herself but she wantedly said aloud so that karan hears her.She smirks seeing karan who is looking at the retreating forms of Preetha and Rishi.
