Abhi comes back and Pragya asks "Did you find any washroom?"

Abhi "Yes! It's at the corner there and you know what there is a exit at the end too."

Pragya "Then what are we waiting for? Let's take the exit and escape from here!"

Abhi "Well, it's not easy as it's locked as well."

Pragya looks upset and Abhi then thinks about Koyal.

Pragya seeing his worried face asked "Thinking about Koyal?"

Abhi in surprise replied "Yes... How did you know that?"

Pragya "Just like that! She is with her uncle right?"

Abhi "She will be. When I left I didn't even inform her why I was leaving. I only informed Robin to take care of her."

Pragya "Robin?"

Abhi "Oh... You don't him right? He is our cartoon character at home. Always have a cartoon smile on his face."

Pragya smiled and said "Interesting...."

Abhi "You have to come one day to my house and see him. He is really very cute."

Pragya "You find a man cute?"

Abhi "Why not? Men are more cute than women actually.... Women have fake cuteness but men are naturally cute."

Pragya "Excuse me, mind your words as I am a girl!"

Abhi "There are exceptions dear, you are cute in that way. Especially when you frown!"

Pragya "Who would look cute when they frown? You are telling lies very nicely Mr Abhi."

Abhi "No!! You look cute when you frown and that makes me irritate u more."

Pragya folds her arms in anger and Abhi compliments "This is also cute."

Pragya irked "Enough of this!"

Abhi says "Ok Chill! I won't call you cute!"

Pragya "I don't mind you call me cute but I mind you calling my actions as cute."

Abhi finds her amusing for telling that way.

He smiles and says "Acha baba. Now I want to sleep. Good night!"

Pragya "You are going to sleep?"

Abhi "Haan. I didn't sleep like you na. Anyways I won't sleep like you so no worries."

Pragya "What do you mean by you won't sleep like me?"

Abhi "You sleep like as if it's hibernation period for polar bears. Nothing around you will wake you up!"

Pragya frowned at him for teasing the way she sleeps.

Abhi "Keep frowning and I am going to sleep!"

Pragya walks away while he sleeps on top of a car.

She finds it boring as he was sleeping. If he was awake at least she would have been entertained.

She goes near him and admires how he sleeps soundly.

She thinks of doing something. And she slowly gets inside the car that was unlocked and press on the horn.

Hearing the horn sound, Abhi jerked and jumped in fear.

Pragya seeing it laughed loudly at him.

He looked at her and yelled "What is this Pragya?"

Pragya stopped laughing and said in a low tone "I also want to sleep like you.... But...."

Abhi "First tell me why you press the horn! Do you know I was scared to the core?"

Pragya says "I'm sorry."

Abhi "What sorry? Is this how you will behave with others? I'm very angry with you now!"

Pragya "I said I am sorry na..."

Abhi ignores her and continues to scold her. This made her upset and burst into tears.

Abhi felt bad for making her crying.

Abhi "Pragya, why are you crying now? OK I'm sorry now for going overboard."

Pragya wiping her tears said "I don't need your sorry. Tell me your love story so that I won't do anything to disturb you."

Abhi "Kya? Love story? My love story? What are you saying Pragya?"

Pragya says she was bored and that's why she tried to wake him up by pressing the horn. And now she wants to hear his love story.

Hearing it Abhi finds it unbelievable as how can a teacher like her can be childish now?

Pragya" Please na.... I really feel bored."

Abhi" Alright. I will tell....."

Pragya questions" Love or arranged marriage?"

Abhi" I think it's love that is arranged to marriage."

Pragya" Sounds interesting. Tell me more about how your love was arranged to marriage."

He thought" How will he tell something that haven't even happened in his life! "

He said" Basically we met during a bus trip and initially we didn't get along well. But as times goes by we found ourselves as good friends."

Pragya asked" Oh.... Then?"

Abhi responses" Then what? I tried to talk to her more. She also talk to me. But I wasn't sure whether it was love with her or just friendship."

Pragya" Oh... Then how do you confirm it as love?"

Abhi" That's a long story. I will tell you another day as you also need a break from my love story."

Pragya" No! No! Tell me now itself. At least until the person who lock this garage opens it."

Abhi thought" She is asking me a story that never even happened. What will I tell now? I don't mind this story to happen soon."

He smiled with that thought and seeing it Pragya felt he looked extremely happy thinking about his wife.

She thought" It means his wife is surely lovely."

Pragya" Tell me na... Please...."

Abhi" OK baba. Basically we had incidents that made us closer. I agree I was confused but I don't know what was running in her mind. I don't have the guts to ask her too as I don't want to lose a friend."

Pragya" All boys in love think this way. Actually it's good to share your thoughts. I know after that it will be awkward but at least personally you would be relieved to know whether she loves you or not."

Abhi thought" That's true. Why I didn't think this way? No wonder she is a teacher."

Pragya"Now tell who confessed love first?"

Abhi in a confused tone replies "I think it was me. No.... It was her..."

Pragya "You think? What kind of a husband are you? You don't remember who told first? That is such an important moment and you forgot it?!"

She started to nag at him for forgetting and unable to tolerate it, he yelled "Stop!!! Did I forget our love confession? No right? Why are you blasting like a balloon?"

Pragya "What did you say? Our love confession?"

Abhi manages by saying "I mean.... Wo... As in why are you getting angry as if I have forgotten our love confession. I mean if.... Nothing like you are thinking."

Pragya "Okok. I understood what you mean. OK leave about who confess first. But tell me one thing of how much you love her?"

Abhi "How much? Love is not a cost to have a price of how much it's there. Love is to the infinity and it is immeasurable!"

Pragya amazed by his reply said "Very deep...."

Abhi "Well, I personally feel this way. Don't you feel so?"

Pragya "I never come across love to feel about it. Yes I love my sister alot. But that is different to the love you are referring to."

Abhi "All love is the same Pragya. It only differs to whom your love is expressed to."

Pragya "Haan.It's different to see this side of yours Mr Abhi. I guess it is the effect of your wife. Now I feel like seeing her."

Abhi smiles lightly in response and Pragya wonders why his smile is so enchanting and she can't take her eyes off him.

Abhi looking at her feels like trapped in thoughts of living a life with her as his husband and the same was with Pragya too.

Sneek peek to next part,
Pragya "Ask him to call me Koyal. You don't have to do all this."

Koyal "But teacher....buddy is a shy boy. Please try to understand."

Pragya chuckles hearing it while Koyal frowns.

Thank u for the responses! Humbled!
