"All Good things happen for a Reason.."

***************

To say that she was about to get a heart attack would be an understatement. Her heart stopped for a brief moment as she stood dumbstruck and her hand traveled to her mouth, covering her shock.

"Sir, Aap??" She exclaimed, bewildered.

Sanyukta was shocked to find that her boss was sitting in front of her!!!!

Yes Randhir Singh Shekhawat was the MD of FITSCOM Telecommunications, where she works.

"Sir???"  

"Sanyukta?? How come we meet here??" Randhir exclaimed, surprised too.

Seeing the shocked expression on the supposed couple, their parents were the first ones to recover from it.

"What a pleasant surprise!! I think they already know each other!!" 

" Yeah, I'm the MD of the company for which your daughter works for."

Kishore and Anju both were tongue-tied thinking what to say. The situation was very complicated and no one knew what to say. 

As for Sanyukta, she was standing there like a statue. The same case was with Randhir. Well the Greek God whose one look was enough to make the girl shy away was lost in the beauty of the girl standing in front of him

Her big hazel eyes were wide in shock and were too innocent and attractive at the same time and were hypnotizing him to no extent.

Renuka was the first one to break the silence, " It's actually reliving that they already know each other, Right Harsh??" She looked at her husband in anticipation.

Harsh knew better. He knew his wife was trying to reduce the awkwardness of the situation." Yes Yes Renuka, I agree with you. And here we had thought that we are rushing into things to get our son married.

Kishore and Anju breathed a sigh of relief as Harsh and Renuka cleverly handed the situation and reduced the awkwardness between them. They were thankful to God for the same

Renuka smiled and turned to Sanyukta and gestured her to come closer.

Sanyukta, thankfully, had returned to her normal mode after a pat on her back from Anju and she motioned her to go and sit near Renuka.

Sanyukta all of sudden nervous in front of her would be Mother in law, went and served tea to them with shaky shivering hands and then went and sat near Renuka.

"Ohh God she's such a lovely girl. Equally beautiful I must say. Perfect epitome of Beauty

Harsh agreed with a smile on his face. Both asked her some general questions to which she replied very politely.

And here Randhir was just admiring her with a smile on his face. He always found her very cute from the first day. Though he visited occasionally due to he handling other branches as well but got to know about Sanyukta's hardworking nature from others. He somewhere knew he had got his life-partner but he was yet to realize it fully.

Randhir was brought back to earth when Renuka called out to her. Seeing her Son all lost in Sanyukta, Renuka chuckled.

"Randhir, beta why don't you go out with Sanyukta and get to know each other. And, Don't mind us oldies. Bhaisaab is it okay with you??

Kishore readily agreed. "Yes Yes, Bhabhiji I'm fine with it. Sanyukta, go beta."

With this both of them stood up awkwardly, both of them staring at their mothers for approval and once they got a nod in response, left from there.

As they reached the parking lot Randhir as a Gentleman opened the door and Sanyukta blushed and sat in the car. Feelings were mutual from Sanyukta's side too. Even her heart had skipped a beat when she had seen Randhir but thought that Randhir is out of her reach as he's very rich whereas she was from Middle-class background.

Sanyukta was brought out of her thoughts when they stopped at a Traffic Signal. Randhir turned towards her and found her looking downwards.

"Sanyukta you okay???"

Sanyukta just nodded unable to find any words due to her nervousness.

"Okay, If you say so."

And they reached the nearby park. Randhir parked his car and came out and Sanyukta also came out.

(Guysss plz play the track Saudebaazi from the movie Aakrosh attached in the media box.)

Sidhe saade saara sauda

Seedha seedha hona ji

Main ne tu ko paana hai ya

Tu ne main ko khona ji

Aaja dil ki karein saude baazi

Kya naaraazi arey aa re aa re yaar {x2}

Both were walking beside each other with their shoulders slightly touching. Sanyukta was about to fall due to ball suddenly coming there way But Randhir saved her at the right time. Both share an eye lock as he straightens her up. Both share a nervous smile and she removes her hand from his shoulder, while he removes it from around her waist.

Sauda hai dil ka yeh, tu kar bhi le

Mera jahaan baanhon mein tu bhar bhi le

Saude mein de kasam, kasam bhi le

Aa ke tu nigaahon mein sanwar bhi le

Despite saving her at the crucial time, Sanyukta had sprained her ankle and it was starting to pain. Randhir saw it and without wasting any time he picked her in his arms and started walking. She was as light weighted as a feather and she fitted perfectly in his arms.

Sauda udaanon ka hai ya aasmaanon ka hai

Le le udaanein meri, le mere par bhi le

Sauda ummeedon ka hai

Khwaabon ka, nindon ka hai

Le le tu nindein meri

Nainon mein bhar bhi le

During the walking they were having a deep eye lock. Randhir saw a chair nearby and placed Sanyukta softly as if she was a fragile thing and if misplaced it will break. She smiled secretly as she looked away, to hide her red cheeks.

Sidhe saade saara sauda

Seedha seedha hona ji

Main ne tu ko paana hai ya

Tu ne main ko khona ji

Aaja dil ki karein saude baazi

Kya naaraazi arey aa re aa re yaar

There was an awkward silence between them. Randhir decided to break the silence as it was getting unbearable for him to bear her silence. "So Sanyukta what do you think about Marriage?  And please no formalities, no Sir okay?"

She smiled and looked away. She didn't know what to say, what to not say.

"Hey what's wrong? You okay?"

"I'm okay, Randhir, I just want some water." Her voice came out a bit scratchy. He smiled and walked up to his car and came back with a water bottle. Sanyukta took the bottle with shivering hands and took large gulps of water to soothe her dry throat. She cursed involuntarily as she knew she always gets a scratchy throat once she gets too worked up, or she's too nervous about the situation. She recalled her Maa's words, the lecture she had received earlier as to behave in front of him like a well-cultured girl.

On the other hand Randhir's heart skipped a beat listening to his name from Sanyukta's mouth. He never knew his name could sound so melodic, and that too coming from her mouth. He smiled at that as he sensed that she was getting fidgety and nervous as she was constantly playing with the hem of her duppatta.

"Look Sanyukta don't get too nervous. Just so you know, I'm not going to eat you okay. So chill." He tried to joke to gain some reaction from her and he was successful. She showed her a million-dollar smile.

"Actually Sir, I mean Randhir" Her voice was still not proper, so she cleared her throat sophistically and turned to him. "Sorry for this. You know you came so suddenly without any notice that I was clueless as to what to say. It is my first time meeting a guy too you know, so I am a bit nervous."

Randhir was shocked. This beautiful girl didn't get any proposals for marriage?? Or was he that lucky that he got to meet her first.

"It's hard to believe that it's your first time. Seriously?"

She blushed and nodded in positive. 

"Wow, that's nice. Well It's my third time."

They sat there in silence, but later chuckled, as Randhir gestured her to start talking about herself. And with this the chatterbox started speaking everything about herself, Her family, her dreams and ambitions

Randhir was listening very contentedly. While describing the things she looked so innocent.

Dil kahe, tere main honton se

Baaton ko chupke se loon utha

Uss jagah dheere se, haule se

Geeton ko apne main doon bitha {x2}

Sanyukta was talking on and on continuously and Randhir was getting impatient to ask her the most awaited question. "So what do you think about US ?"

This led to total silence with Randhir looking intently at Sanyukta and Sanyukta was just too numb to react. When he didn't find any way he pulled her hands with his own towards him and caressed her palm, which made her ticklish.  She was also lost in his black orbs, blankly looking in his eyes.

Sauda taraanon ka hai

Dil ke fasaanon ka hai

Le le taraane mere

Honton pe ghar bhi le

Sauda ujaalon ka hai

Roshan khayaalon ka hai

Le le ujaale mere

Aaja nazar bhi le

That's when a ball hit them yet again and they came back to senses. A small cute boy came to take the ball and chipped a sorry. Sanyukta called the boy and pulled his round cheeks saying "Awww!! Its ok my dear friend" and kissed his cheek ruffling his hairs. The boy rubbed his cheek blushingly and chipped a thank you and went away.

Randhir was smiling but felt a little jealous. Sanyukta turned towards Randhir and the scene which had occurred a few seconds ago played in her mind and she averted her gaze and shied away.

Seeing this Randhir gave his famous lopsided smirk.

Sidhe saade saara sauda

Seedha seedha hona ji

Main ne tu ko paana hai ya

Tu ne main ko khona ji

Aaja dil ki karein saude baazi

Kya naaraazi arey aa re aa re yaar

"Amm sorry for that thing. I had to stop your blabbering. Hope you didn't mind." 

She kept looking away with a smile. She knew he was a bit mischievous.

"Well jokes apart. I meant what I asked earlier. What are your views towards our would be relation??"

Sidhe saade... seedha saada...

Main ne tu ko... tu ne main ko...

Aa re aa re yaar...

Sanyukta went silent. Few incidences played in her mind when Randhir's friend Ishika tried getting close to him. Even Randhir didn't object. So she thought that maybe Randhir liked Ishika.

"What about Ishika? I thought.." And she left her sentence incomplete unable to find the correct words. It felt awkward to even think about it, let alone say it aloud. It hurt too.

Randhir understood Her dilemma. Even he had caught Sanyukta looking at them when Ishika tried getting close to him. He needed to clear the misunderstanding ASAP.

"She's just a friend Sanyukta. I know what you must be thinking. I don't like her even a bit but as she's a family friend I have to tolerate her. That's it.

Main kabhi bhoolunga na tujhe

Chaahe tu mujh ko dena bhula

Aadatein jaisi hai tu meri

Aadatein kaise bhoolun bhala {x2}

Sanyukta felt relieved hearing that. She instantly liked him for being honest.

" I ensure this Sanyukta, There will be no future repeat versions for this kind of situation. Please trust me on this."

Hearing this Sanyukta who was looking down looked in his eyes that held every emotion from relief to anxiety to eagerness. His eyes held a promise which she knew he will fulfill for the rest of his life and this crushed all the insecurities in her heart. She also saw a little bit of traces of love that melted her.

Sauda yeh waadon ka hai, yaadon, iraadon ka hai

Le le tu waade chaahe tu to mukar bhi le

Sauda ishaaron ka hai, chaahat ke maaron ka hai

Le le ishaare mere, in ka asar bhi le

Sanyukta started walking away. She was holding back her smile to shock him. Randhir on seeing her walking away became a little sad. But the next moment he saw her running towards him as she came towards him and hugged him shocking him to the core.

"I think I'm READY. I guess"

Hearing this Randhir's happiness knew no bounds. He lifted her and twirled her in air.

Sanyukta hugged him more tightly so as to prevent herself from falling.

Sidhe saade saara sauda

Seedha seedha hona ji

Main ne tu ko paana hai ya

Tu ne main ko khona ji

Aaja dil ki karein saude baazi

Kya naaraazi arey aa re aa re yaar {x2}

Randhir broke the hug and gazed at her lovingly. He suddenly chuckled and rubbed his noses while looking down. She tilted her head in wonder, her eyebrows scrunched together.

Suddenly Randhir looked up and gazed intently at Sanyukta. She also felt silent and returned his gaze.

He started reducing the gap between them. Sanyukta was surprised at this gesture and closed her eyes slowly.....
