Rakhi/Sarla - nahi nahi puttar/beta rukja!

Preeta(whispers) - iska mtlb maa aur Rakhi aunty saath chup rahe hai!(giggles)

Preeta(shouts) - mai ab khol rahi hu!

No response came,she opened the cloth and looked around,

Preeta - hmm...rooms me baadme...pehle bahar garden me dhundhti hu!

She went to the garden and started looking around,

Suddenly she felt some movement from behind the trees,

She smiled lightly and went there with baby steps,

Preeta - kon hai kon hai?(lowly)

She slowly peeped there,

Preeta - Rishab ji!

Rishab looked at her and slapped his forehead,

Rishab - mai hi pehla!

Preeta(happily) - yes!ab dusro ko dhundhti hu!

Rishab smiled and started following her,

She went towards the parking lot,

She looking through the cars, suddenly she saw a reflection through the mirror,she smiled and went there,

Preeta - reflection to ladki ki hai...ya to Shristi ya Kritika...yaar kon hai dono me se!

She then saw her dupatta in reflection and smiled and tip toes towards her,

Preeta(shouts happily) - Kritika pakar liya!

Kritika - oh shit!kya yaar Preeta!

Preeta laughs,

Kritika went towards Rishab,

Rishab - welcome to the party!

Kritika chuckles,

Trio went inside house,Preeta went towards kitchen,

Preeta - nahi yaha to koi nahi....(she startled listening some noise)

She peeped beside the slab and saw Mahesh eating ladoo,she chuckled and went towards him,

Preeta(teasingly) - Mahesh uncle!

Mahesh startled and looked at her,

Preeta - ye kya chal raha hai!

Mahesh(smiling nervously) - puttar wo.....

Preeta takes Mahesh out to hall,

Preeta(shouts) - Rishab ji Mahesh uncle yaha kitchen me ladoo khaa rahe hai!(laughs)

Rishab - kya dad aap bhi....

Rakhi came out angrily of her hiding place,

Rakhi - oh ji Mahesh ji aap game ke bahane ladoo khaa rahe ho!

Mahesh - nahi Rakhi ji mai to bas!

Preeta(shouts) - Rakhi aunty pakri gayi!(laughs)

Rishab and Kritika slap their foreheads,

Kritika - kya Mami ji aap bhi!

Rakhi - ye Mahesh ji ki wajeh se mai out hogyi...warna mai to waha storeroom me chupi hui thi!

Preeta - thank you Rakhi aunty!

Rakhi - kyu puttar?

Preeta runs towards store room and comes with Sarla who was having a crybaby face,

Sarla - Kya Rakhi ji?aapne kyu bataya aap store room me thi!

Rakhi - Sarla ji slip of tongue hogya jara sa!

Mahesh - hum to dubenge sanam tumhe lekar dubenge!

Rakhi - aap to chup hi rahiye Mahesh ji!

All laughs,

Preeta went towards basement area to find others,only Karan and Shrismeer were left,

Preeta - ab ye teeno kaha honge!

She went down and saw a shadow beside the side wall,

Preeta(whispers) - Karan aisi jagah chupega nahi...yaa to ye Sameer hai ya Shristi!(she observe the shadow)

She sneakingly went towards it and shouted,

Preeta - pakar liya Sameer!!

Sameer startled and looked at her,

Sameer - kya yaar Preeta...itni jldi!maine to socha tha kitni sahi jagah chupa hu!

Preeta laughs,

Both went towards other,

Mahesh - aaja Sammy puttar...ladoo khaayega!

Sameer - ladoo hi khaane parenge chachu ab!

Preeta - ab bas Shristi aur Karan bache hai!

She went upstairs and started finding them in room,

She entered Dadi's room,

Dadi - kisse dhundh rahi hai puttar?

Preeta - Shristi aur Karan dadi!

Dadi - dhundh dhundh ache se dhundh!

Preeta looked around her room and turned to go but stopped listening something,

She turned towards the room and went closer to the cupboard,

Before she could do anything, cupboard opened and Shristi fell from it,

Preeta - aaaaa!ye kya kar rahi hai!

Shristi - are di...mai bechaari apne height ki maari...cupboard me fit hone ki koshish kr rahi thi....gir hi gayi!(holding her back)

Preeta laughs,

Preeta - ab bas Karan bacha hai!tu neeche jaa...mai usse dhundhti hu!

Shristi nodded and left downstairs stumbling,

Preeta started finding Karan in other room,

She entered a room and saw it's washroom slightly open,

Preeta - to bajarbattu yaha hai!

She tip toed and went inside the washroom and looked around,

Preeta(confusingly) - kaha hai?

She turned,her leg slipped and she was about to fall when two strong arms held her,

She closed her eyes fearly,she realized she was safe and slowly opened her eyes and saw Karan holding her,

He was already lost in her,she too got lost in his eyes,

Ranjhna… naino ke teer chal gaye

He was clutching her waist and back tightly while she was holding his shirt tightly in her fist,

Both were looking at each other intensely,

Sajna… saanson se dil sil gaye

She was about to slip because of water but he held her tightly and pulled her towards himself,she hits his chest,

His hands on her waist while her hands on his chest,

Palkon mein chupa loon, oh tera sajda karoon

He tucked her hairstrand behind, looking into her eyes lostly,

Seenay mein samaa loon, oh din reain karoon

Both departed and looked at each other awkwardly,

Karan/Preeta - sorry!

Preeta started to go,Karan to stepped but his leg twisted and he slipped taking her,

Both fell on ground,his hand hit the shower resulting it to open,

Palkon mein chupa loon, seenay mein samaa loon
Tere ang ang rang mera bole

By the sudden fall,his face hid in the crook of her neck,his hand around her waist,

Her hands were on his shoulder,

Ab jaan lutt jaaye, ye jahaan chhut jaaye
Sang pyaar rahe, main rahun na rahun

She could feel his hot breath on her neck and started breathing heavily,

Unknowingly his nose rubbed on her neckline and his lips touched her neck, resulting a soft moan escaped from her mouth,

He looked at her,

Sajda tera sajda,
(karun mein tera sajda)

He tried to stand but failed,

Their face were close enough to make them nervous,their nose interlocked with each other,

Din reain karoon na hi chain karoon

He finally stood and helped her to stand,

Karan(looking away) - s...sorry pata nahi kaise!

Preeta - it's...its ok...chalo neeche!

Karan nodded,Preeta left down hurriedly while he stood their,

He kept his hand on his heart,

Karan - bas kar bhai....heartbeats itni tez kyu ho rahi hai!aaj Preeta se itna close aakar...jaise...nahi...nahi...mai jyada soch raha hu!(remembered his lips touched her neck and kept his hand on his lips) did we just shared a moment!(gulped) glti se! bas glti se!(ran downstairs)

Sarla - are tum dono aise bheeg kaise gaye?

Preeta - maa wo Karan washroom me chipa tha to glti se!

Rakhi - acha koi baat nahi!jaao dono change krlo!thand lag jaayegi warna!

Both nodded and looked at each other and then looked away being awkward and ran from there,

Shrismeer noticed this and looked at each other being confused,

Night time,

Karan was sitting at terrace,

Karan - kya jo aaj maine feel kiya Preeta ke pass jaakar wo sab...dhadhkane tez hogyi...saansein bhaari hogyi...ajeeb se feeling thi!kya..kya Preeta ne bhi yahi feel kiya hoga!

He looked at his hand that were on her waist,

Karan - aisa pehle kabhi nahi hua...itni girlfriends rahi hai par kisi ke pass jaakar aise nahi feel hua jaisa Preeta ke pass jaakar hota hai!wuff...I think mai bahot jyada soch raha hu!

His thoughts break when he heard someone sneezing,

He turned and saw Preeta coming while rubbing her nose,

Karan - babydoll?kya hua?

Preeta - kuch nahi bas wo *sneezed* cold hogya thoda sa!!ughh!

Karan - are to dawai lelo na!

Preeta - nahi itna bhi jyada *sneezed* nahi hai!

Karan - ha wo to dikh rha hai!acha baitho!

Preeta - nahi tumhe bhi cold lag jaayega mai pass nahi aaungi!

Karan - are pagal baitho...kuch nahi hoga!lagne do mujhe cold!(made her sit)

Karan - haa!wo to hai!lekin aisa lagta hai ye maza tumhari saza hogyi hai!kitni cheekh aa rahi tumhe!

Karan - tum na...khayal rakha karo bajarbatti apna...sbke baare sochti ho...siwaay apne!

Preeta - ha baba..ab jaao tumbhi so jaao!

Karan nodded and both left down,

She turned to go towards her room,

Karan - babydoll!

She turned,

Preeta - haa?

Karan - kuch nahi!

Preeta looked at him confusingly,

Preeta - good night!

Karan - good night babydoll!

Both left with a smile on their faces.

To be continued.
