Munna run to open the door and came back with dull face, "kya yaar Naina, hara diya na tu ne mujhe... ab yeh ponga aur Swati saare time meri khinchai karenge..." he sits back on sofa with Nanu, followed by Sameer entering in hall with angry looks, making all leave in surprise...

He came to all and stands in center keeping his hand on his chest with an annoyed face, when Swati offered him tea and hot pakoras.. "Sameer achchha hua tum bhi aa gaye... yeh lo tum bhi pakoda khaao.... abhi garam garam bane hai... mein aur laati hun..." she stood to go inside kitchen when Naina called her from back, "Swati, pyaaz ke laana... Sameer ko pyaaz ke pakode jyaada pasand hai..." saying this she looked at him but immediately lowered her eyes avoiding his intense and angry gaze on her.....

Sameer glares her and said dramatically showing fake anger, "pakode yaad hai... maine subah kya kaha tha voh yaad nahin hai... mana kiya tha na ki kahin baahar nahin jaana... toh yahaan party karne aa gayi... party karni thi toh mujhe bola hota, mein ghar par hi sab intzaam kar deta... itni baarish hai baahar... do din se bukhaar hai, par madam ko toh masti karni hai... doctor ne kaha tha ki halka khaana dena hai toh yahaan pakode khaaye ja rahe hai... maana Ramdhari ki khichdi bakwaas hoti hai par pakode... thoda bhi dhyan nahin hai na apni health ka...."

She lifts her eyes slowly and said cutely pointing finger towards Nanu, "sachchi maine nahin khaaye... voh toh yeh Nanu ne banwaye hai... baahar baarish hai na toh bas isiliye... unka man tha khaane ka...."

He turned to Nanu angrily and asked, "aap bhi yahin ho... aap toh apne dost ke yahaan gaye the na... toh yahaan kya kar rahe ho... ek mein hun jo sabki chinta kar raha tha ghar par aur yahaan dekho sab party kar rahe hai... yeh nahin hua ki isako ghar se baahar jane se rokate, par nahin khud bhi... aur aapko bhi toh mana hai na itna oily khaana khaane ke liye..."

Naina again intervened to cool him, "nahin voh iss mahine ki reports theek hai aur doctor ne kaha hai ki Nanu sab kha sakte hai ab... bas thoda dhyaan rakhne ko bola hai aur dawai time se deni hai..."

He turned back to her, "tum toh kuchh bolo hi mat ... khud apna khayal rakha nahin jaata aur chali ho Nanu ki tarafdaari karne... pata hai mujhe sab ke sab mile huye ho.. ek mein hi paagal hun na ... isiliye toh mujhe akela chhod kar aa gaye sab yahaan..." he said making cute grumpy face...

Munna whispers in Pandit's ear, "yaar tujhe nahin lagta ki aaj phir se voh Mount abu wala hi scene ho gaya... par aaj toh yeh uss din se bhi jyaada bhadka huaa hai... mujhe toh bas iski Naina ke liye yahi tadap dekhni thi... bada maza aa raha hai yaar..."

Pandit smirks saying, "tadap toh theek hai par ab Mount abu ki tarah isse aaj surprise nahin 1000-watt ka jhatka dene ka man kar raha hai... uss din toh Naina ke pyaar ne isse khush kar diya tha par ab dekh kaise isse hamara torture sehna hoga jab tak yeh qubool nahin karta apna pyaar..." both laughed slowly making him more irritated....

All looked down hiding their smile on his frustration which makes him more annoyed, "kya matlab hai aise munh chhupane ka ... haan...bolo... koi jawaab hai kisi ke paas... sab bigad gaye hai... kisi ko mujhse pyaar nahin hai.." he said when Nanu laughed loudly, hold his hand and make him sit next to her...

He picks one pakoda and put inside his mouth, "arey tu toh hamari jaan hai... aise kaise kah diya ki tujhse koi pyaar nahin karta... chal ab yeh sab chhod aur aa party karte hai... manana padega bane bade tasty hai... le tu bhi kha na... baarish mein pakodo ka maza hi kuchh aur hai...."

He eats one and said instantly, "nahin par vaise nahin hai jaise Naina banaati hai..." he turned to her, "voh kya daalti ho tum kuchh alag sa masala aur kitne crispy hote hai... bohot tasty lagte hai pakode usse..." all looked at him but remain quite looking at each other smiling...

Nanu teased him, "beta vaise itni baarish mein tu kyun aa gaya hamare pichhe pichhe... ghar par aaraam karta na... mein toh aa hi jaata vaapas thodi der mein..." he gets nervous and stammered, "voh.. voh.. Nanu mujhe... haan mujhe na aapki chitna ho rahi thi... bas isiliye aapko lene aaya hun... baahar itni baarish hai, jagah jagah paani bhara hua hai..."

Nanu said hiding his smile to tease him more, " par beta tujhe kis ne kaha mein yahaan hun... maine toh kaha tha ki apne dost ke ghar jaa raha hun... yahaan toh sirf Naina aayi thi Swati ke saath.... tu mujhe lene aaya hai ya ...."

Sameer cuts in between... getting nervous, to avoid his tease he stuffed one pakora in Nanu's mouth, "Nanu aap chup chap se pakode khaaiye, varna ek bhi nahin dunga.... vaise mein abhi bhi naraaz hun... aise kaise mujhe bina bataye akele chhod kar aa gaye sab yahaan... mein kya itna bura hun ki kisi ko meri yaad nahin aayi ek baar bhi...." he said last line with a puppy face looking at her only...

Later they all enjoyed whereas he keeps checking on her... in between asked Swati to get a cup of tea for her when finds her light shivering.... he went and sits next to her and touch her forehead, which was still slight warm, making him worried for her.. he asked softly, "tumne medicine li... dekho phir se bukhaar hai..." she bit her tongue looking down, "sorry... voh ghar par bhool gayi... itni jaldi mein aaye na ki yaad hi nahin raha..."

He glared her angrily but soon his expression turned into soft smile... he took out a medicine strip from his pocket and forwards to her, "yeh lo... maine dekha tha vahaan tumhare room mein side table par hi pada tha.. mujhe laga shayad jarurat ho..." she smilingly took it from his hand and swallow it with water... Nanu and all witnessed his concern and care towards her, feeling good...

After a fun filled evening after long time with all besties together with Nanu, Pandit Priya stood to leave, "chalo yaar ab chale... bohot raat bhi ho gayi hai... vaise aaj itne dinon baad sab saath mein the, kitna maza aaya na.." Priya hit on his arm, "jhuth mat bolo, tumhein sabse jyaada maza pakode kha kar aaya... maine dekha tha tum toh ruk hi nahin rahe the.." all laughed on their cute nok-jhonk.... 

Nanu too asked Sameer to leave now as it was very late now... they both get up when Sameer looked at Naina, who was still sitting there and said, "tum kya yahaan baithi ho... chalo ghar nahin chalana kya... medicine li hai iska yeh matlab nahin ki aaraam na kiya jaaye..."

Swati came instantly, "nahin Sameer.. aaj voh mere saath hi rahegi... itane din baad ghar aayi hai..." but Sameer said sternly, "ji nahin... usaki tabiyat theek nahin hai... abhi bhi halka bukhaar hai... yahaan rahegi toh baaton mein lagi rahegi aur aaraam nahin karegi... aur phir mera bhi dil nahin....." 

He realized what he was about to utter when he changed his words, "matlab kal office mein important meeting bhi hai... theek rahegi tab hi toh jaa paayegi office... itane din ki chhutti allowed nahin hai... pata hai kitna kaam pending ho gaya hai office mein..." he didn't agreed on any excuse and refuse her to stay back with Munna and Swati... all enjoyed teasing him so much hiding their laughter...

Finally seeing no option, Sameer looked at her with pleading eyes and forward his hand, mouthed "Please"...  which she silently holds and stood to go with him, getting teased by Pandit, "haan bhai ab apne Boss ki baat kaun taal sakta hai... kitna khadus boss jo mila hai..." he glared Pandit saying, "tujhe toh kal office mein dekh lunga mein... kar le jitni bakwaas karni hai..."

Seeing her so weak getting concern for her, he asked slowly, "tum theek ho na... chal paaogi... ab chakkar toh nahin aa rahe" she shook her head assuring him and hold his hand more firmly for support.. he too holds her from shoulder like he was always doing earlier... all smiled seeing them together like this after a long time...

They all came out and he make her sit in back seat while Nanu sits in front with him... he adjust his mirror to have a glimpse of her when Nanu teased him, "beta sadak bhi dekh lena... kaafi paani bhara hua hai, kahin gadde mein mat ghusa dena gaadi... ab iss umra mein dhakka nahin laga paaunga..." they both blushed hard, looking each other in rear view mirror....

Munna Swati, Pandit & Priya waved them bye.... Munna, "bhai tujhe kya lagta hai, sab theek ho jayega na..." Pandit keeping his hand on Munna's shoulder said, "theek toh hona hi padega... dekha nahin aaj ek hi din mein uski haalat kharaab ho gayi Naina ke bina..."

Swati said smilingly, "kitne pyaare lag rahe the na donon ek saath, itne dinon ke baad... kuchh bhi kaho Sameer aaj bhi dil se Naina ke liye mehsoos toh karta hai, par samajh nahin pa raha... kaash jaldi se sab theek ho jaaye aur Naina ki zindagi mein phir se khushiyaan vaapas aa jaaye..."

Priya hugging her from side, "mein bhi yahi chahti hun... aaj kitne dinon baad uski hansi sunayi di hai.... jo sirf aur sirf Sameer hi vaapas la sakta tha... par mujhe nahin lagta Naina yeh naatak kar payegi... ek toh usse jhuth nahin bola jaata aur uppar se Sameer ke saamne toh voh ek minute mein hi pighal jaati hai... kahin pehle din hi na uski aankhon mein doob kar sab sach bata de...."

Swati too said smilingly, "aur kya... dekha nahin aaj Sameer ne ek baar pyaar se dekha uski taraf, request ki toh ek minute mein hi chali gayi uske saath... voh kabhi Sameer se naraaz rah hi nahin sakti, jhuthi bhi nahin..."

Mundit looked at her and said with a naughty smile, "arey toh hum kis liye hai... dekhna aisa drama karenge ki Sameer apne aap jald se jald Naina ko ek baar phir se propose kar dega... agar uske dil ki baat uske munh se nahin nikalwayi toh hum bhi Nanaji ke Rahu Ketu nahin..." all laughed heartily.... Soon Pandit too left with Priya....

They reached home when Ramdhari opened the gate and greet Nanu, he saw Sameer coming behind him with Naina, holding her from shoulder... he said all smiling to Naina, "are didi aap aa gayi... humein aapki bohot chinta ho rahi thi... laga ek do din baad hi aayengi shayad..." on which he gets a deadly glare from Sameer, "kyun tujhe kuchh pareshaani hai kya... jab dekho bas bak bak karta rehta hai... ek coffee toh dhange se banayi nahin jaati, baatein karwa lo.." he takes Naina to her room leaving Nanu and Ramdhari in hall...

Nanu put his hand on his shoulder, "beta bach kar rahna tu.. varna yeh jwalamukhi kabhi bhi phat sakta hai tere par.." he giggled when Ramdhari said worriedly, "maalik, achchha hua bhabhi vaapas aa gayi varna aaj toh bhaiya mujhe kachchha kha jaate... aapko dekhna chahiye tha, kya gussa huye the jab unhein pata chala ki bhabhi Swati Bhabhi ke saath gayi hai... baap re baap... gusse mein saara ghar tod dete aaj yeh...." they both laughed loudly..

Sameer left for his room after giving medicine to her and ensure she sleep comfortably... he keeps visited her room twice during mid night to keep a check on her temperature which got subside now... giving him relief....
