TS- ||Miss Sharma & Mr.Punjabi ||

She looked around for any kind of help she could in the darkness. "Koi toh hoga!

"Itne bade amusement park mein bati kaise gul ho sakti hai! she looked at her watch. Phittey Mooh! It was already seven thirty. That meant she had been aimlessly walking, rather lost, at that place for the past thirty minutes! Reality struck hard. Now all her bravery and courage was slipping off the edge.

"Main nikla o gaddi lekke raste pe ik mod aaya, main te raasta bhul aaya! a voice sang. Gauri Kumari Sharma's eyes widened. A man! Sounded crazy!

She fisted her hands , Kaun hai

"Kaun Hai, Main hoon! he replied absentmindedly. The next minute his eyes widened, from the past fifteen minutes he had been speaking to himself scared of the dark amusement park- reminded him off one of those scary movies Rudra had showed him.

Was she like that blood drinking ghost in that movie.?He gulped in fear, cursing Rudra!

A dark figure finally appeared. Gauri squeezed her eyes analyzing the figure in the dark. Looked like a well dressed sardaar. "Namaste.

"Ajeeb ho, yeh Namaste karne ka time hai? Yahan main aapse milne nahi aay hoon. WO actually itne bade amusement park mein apna raasta bhatak gaya hoon!

"O hello...Mister...Mr.Sardaar! Bhali ka zamaana hi nahi raha. Hummein bhooton jaise bhatakne ka shauk nahi hai! Hum bhi thode kho gaye hain

"Thode? " Omkara chuckled, "Waise height se lag hi raha thaa! Why was he behaving like Rudra! Perhaps to kill the fear in him, he justified his behavior to himself.

"Height pe mat jaaiye samjhe! she folded her arms. She hated it when someone simply took the conversation to height.

Hah! Much like Shivaay! He thought to himself.

"Dehkiye, aap bhi akeli hain aur main bhi..

"Ayeee! she half-way screamed. Her eyes going wide.

"I mean, no I mean, I don't mean that, Main, mera matlab thaa...

"Yeh matlab naa apne paas hi rakhiye. Bahut besharmon ko iss Sharma ne thikaane lagaya hai! Samjhe. She flicked her hair behind. Should have known it was too dark for him to see.

Omkara closed his eyes. One hell of a crazy day, first Daadi wanted the three of them to wear turbans for the day, second Anika Bhabhi had sent him to the market to buy imli from a specific vendor and Laddoos from the Rohit halwaai, and then Shivaay had asked him to go to the exotic sweet shop instead. Further, Jaanvi had asked him to meet this certain girl a prospective bride for him. If that wasn't enough Choti-Maa had come with another girl's profile. Then there was his meeting with a certain gallery owner at the amusement park, as his ten year old wouldn't leave him. He wondered how crazy kids were at times! To top all of it, the previous night rudra had told him crazy stories about darkness as he was working in his studio. The fact that he was now in pitch darkness in an unknown place wasn't enough that this certain Miss.Sharma was here to entertain him in midst of almost nowhere- at least to him! But he needed company a Sharma would certainly be better than his head's imaginative figures that were named ghosts by people.

"Miss. Sharma out are getting it wrong. I meant since we both are stuck here, if we find the way out as a team it would be better. As it is it is very dark and the placeis quite strange. Plus, you know, naa, "Akeli ladki khuli hui tijori ki tarah hoti hai! A line he had picked up from the movie Anika Bhabhi was watching three days back. He cursed himself t=immediately after he had used it.

"E...Ki matlab hai khuli tijori...Yeh chichoraapan naa..apne paas rakhiye. Sab samjte hain hum. Aur hum uu chiriya hai, jiske naam se hi aache aachon ki hawwa phiiisss-karke nikal jaati hai!

"WoW!Omkara said surprised, finding someone who used words as crazy as his Bhaabhi used.

Suddenly there was some sound and Gauri yelped, holding on to Omkara's arm. Omkara laughed. "Phisss ho gaya!

"Dehkiye...faaltu ki baatein chodte hain, bahar jaane ka rasta dhondte hain! Hummein bhooton se milne ka shauk nahi hai. She spoke scared.

"Bhhoobhooot! trembled Om's voice.

"Aapki bhi phattti? she asked, feeling glad that they were in same boat.

"Mee-meri-what phattimainmaiinnahi---ddaaarrtttaabbhoo-bhhooottt-se! broken words came out of his mouth.

Gauri laughed.Bekaar acting!

"Very.funny.chalein. Miss-Sharma! he pointed to the direction.

"Aap ko Punjabi aati hain? she asked as they walked.Nahi! he replied.

"Aise kaise? she asked turning to him. His built reminding her of someone though she couldn't see his face. For a reason unknown she felt safe with him.

"What do you mean?

"Aap Sardaar hain naa!

"Nahi! he replied looking around to figure out which direction to move in.

"Kya? Aap bhooot hain? she asked confused.

"Tum paagal ho? he asked looking at her irritatingly.

"Hummein aapke sardaar pagdi dikh rahi hai! she exclaimed.

"hain toh dikhegi naa! he answered bewildered.

"toh aap jhooth kyun bol rahe hain, ki aap Sikh nahi hain!

"Haan nahi hoon?'

"Arey abhi aapne bola...aapne pagdi pehni hui hai!

"Acha toh pagdi pehne se har aadmi sikh banjaata hai! he countered at her stupid logic.

"Lekin aapne kada bhi pehnaa hua hai! She said pointing into his hand.

"Wait. He stopped in track turning to her. Meri bio-data chaiye toh seedhe seedhe mango naa,

We are Punjabis, originally Punjab ke rehne waale thee,

Yeh kada daadi gurudwara gayi thii tab laayi thii.

Height 5'8. Weight main bataunga nahi. Age 26, Birthdate- 29th July, Birthplace- Mumbai. School-Mumbai international, College- ...

"I am not interested, main toh bas... " she cut him short.

"Measurements bhi doon?

"Ajeeb hain, dekhiye Mr. Punjabi don't be over smart, Mumbai ki baaki ladkiyaan aape fida hoti hongi, yeh apka paitra humpe nahi chala okay. "

"Thank God! And thank you Miss Sharma, last person on earth I would want to be with is you!

"Hum toh bas aise hi baatein kar rahe the, taaki aapko darn a lage lekin, hum toh bhool gaye ki..

...Bhalia ka zamana nah raha! he completed.Pichle bees minute mein fifth time! Koi doosra dialogue nahi hai?

"Acha aapko Punjabi aati hain?

He rolled his eyes as he proceeded to walk, how many topics could this woman talk about? As long as it was not walking alone with the feeling of being seen by dozens of unknown people and feeling that if you turn you would find the face of a creepy person smiling at you, her company was fine.

"thodi thodi

"Acha! she clapped.Hummein sikhaaiye.. she said excitedly.

"Khoteya daa khur!

"Matlab? she asked repeating it after him. "Donkey's foot he replied.

"Bade anokhe shabd aate hain aapko! she mocked him.

"I can't help Daadi calls me that!

And she was a laughter riot, he first face-palmed and then soon was laughing too. Her laughter was infectious. He felt as though he had heard that peculiar kind of laughter before.

"Aye haye! Kinni soni lagdi payi hain!"he said rather flirtatiously. He had always wanted to try that and he found the perfect opportunity.

She felt heat reach up her cheeks. She smiled at his change of tone. "Aur bataiye

"Matlab nahi poochogi? he said smiling walking ahead.

"Itni Punjabi toh main bhi samjti hoon! she giggled. "Chance pe bada dance kar rahe hain aap Mr.Punjabi!

"Mr.Punjabi?" The way she called him that was so cute!

"Kyun aap hi Miss Sharma bula sakte hain!"

He laughed, "O jii mitti paaon. waise mainu ik gal dasso, tussi Punjabi kyun sikhna chaade ho?

"Saadi iccha jii! she replied cutely. There he was a certain Omkara, losing his heart to a mere stranger!
