Karan smiled remembering her. It was true he ran, he ran away from situations, he ran from his love because he never really had the courage to be heartbroken, to see her heartbroken, to see her not loving him when his heart beats for her every single second.

Karan(smilingly): Tumhari mohabbat bhi ajeeb hai babydoll..Na tumse dur raha jaata hai..na tumhare paas..

He smiled at her photograph.

Karan: 6 mahine hogye hai..Na tum mujhe bhooli ho..Na main tumhe..Socha tha bhool jauga tumhe..Par..I am always wrong no..and Preeta Arora is always right

He picked up his jacket and went out.

Kaisi teri khudgarzi..
Na dhoop na chune chaav..

Karan was walking on the streets. All streets were decorated with lights because of the celebrations going on. He smiled.

Preeta pulled Karan. He fell over her.

Karan: Ab tumne mujhe kyu kheecha..

Preeta:Lights laga rhe ho toh dekhke lagao na..Sparking ho rhi hai waha..

Karan smiled and continued walking.

Kaisi teri khudgarzi..
Kisi thaur tike na paanv..

Karan was feeling so empty, lonely. There was no one around whom he could speak to but then, he was the one who left everyone, his family, his friends. It has been six months and there was nothing. Neither he stopped loving her nor he moved on. He was still there, nothing has changed.

Ban liya apna paighambar
Tair liya tu saat samandar..

He sat on a bench. He remembered Sameer.

Karan(running behind him): Sammy ke bache rukk..

Sameer: Nhi bhai..I know aap maaroge..

Karan: Nhi toh kya aarti utaaru teri..

He smiled. Preeta sat besides him. He looked at her shocked.

Phir bhi sookha mann ke andar
Kyun rah gaya..

Preeta: Kya hua bajarbattu..Expect nhi kiya tha mujhe..

Karan: Babydoll..

Preeta: Tumhi ne mujhse kaha tha na Karan..kii ek insan ke liye main apni family apne dosto..Sab ka dil nhi tod skti..Sab ko hurt nhi kr skti..Ab tum kya kr rhe ho Karan..Yaha sabse dur..

Karan: Pata nhi..

Preeta: Kab tak bhaagoge Karan..Kis kis se bhaagoge..Zindagi mein kabhi na kabhi toh tumhe sab face krna hi hoga..

Karan(trying hard to control his tears): Main bas kisi ko takleef nhi pahuchana chahta..

Re Kabira..Maan ja..
Re Fakira..Maan ja..

Preeta: Kya koi khush hai Karan..Tum khud khush ho?

Karan: Toh tum kya chahti ho..Vaapis chala jao..Taaki mera pyaar tumhe phir se dard de..

Preeta: Jab mera dil tuta..Mujhe dard ho rha tha..Uss dard se bahar mujhe tumne nikala..Yeh kh kar kii yeh mujhe aur strong banayega..Aur ab tum khud kamzoor pad gaye Karan...

Karan: Ha hu main kamzoor..Kya karu..

Preeta: Kabhi tumne yeh socha hai Karan..Agar bhaagte bhaagte..Woh sab piche rh gaya jo tum hmesha se chahte the..Sukoon..Khushi toh..

Aa jaa..Tujhko pukaare
Teri parchaiyaan..

Preeta: Tum pyaar ko khatam nhi kr skte Karan..Dur rhne se mohabbat khatam nhi hogi..Par kya tum uss mohabbat ka anjaam bhi nhi dekhne chahte...Sirf iss darr se kii kahi woh tumhare hakk mein nhi hua toh..

Karan looked at her. She was right. He can't stop loving her. He can't ever stop loving her but there was no point of running away, he can't just run away from everything because he's too scared to see the end.

Preeta(smilingly): Tumne hi kaha tha Karan..Sach se bhaagne se sach badlega nhi..Dhokhe se bhaagne se dhokha nhi badlega..Toh pyaar se bhaagne se pyaar toh nhi badlega..

Karan nodded. Preeta forwarded her hand for him. He looked at her and smiled. He was about to keep his hand on hers when she disappeared.

Re Kabira..Maan jaa..
Re Fakira..Maan jaa..

Karan(looking around for her): Babydoll..

He stood up and looked here and there.

Karan:Babydoll..

Karan: Jab ajnabee hokar saath nhi choda..Ab toh dost hu..Kabhi saath nhi choduga..

Preeta: Toh main bhi waada krti hu bajarbattu..Tumhe kabhi akela mehsoos nhi hone dungi..

Karan smiled realising he was just imagining her but it was indeed true that even though through her memories, she never left him alone.

Kaisa tu hai nirmohi..
Kaisa harjaayian..

Karan called Sameer.

Sameer: Ha bhai..

Karan:Sammy..

Sameer: Aage bhi toh kuch bolo..

Karan(smilingly): I am coming back..Khush?

Sameer(happily): Really bhai? Mazak toh nhi kr rhe..Aap aa rhe ho..Main bahut bahut bahut khush hu..I missed you so much..

Karan:I missed you more..

Sameer: Main tickets book krta hu..And I love you bhai..

Karan: But I don't love you sammy..

Sameer(making faces): Kya bole..

Karan(laughing):Kuch nhi..Bye..

Sameer: Huh bhai..Bye..

He hanged up.

Karan(smiling to himself):Thank you babydoll..Ab main nhi bhaaguga..Na apne pyaar se..Na uske anjaam se..kisi ko hurt nhi kruga..na apni family ko..na tumhe..

Aa jaa..Tujhko pukaare..
Teri parchaiyaan..

Preeta looked at their photograph and smiled.

Next day,

Preeta was eating breakfast when Sarla came to her smilingly. Preeta made a cry baby face. Shrishti was trying hard to control her laughter.

Sarla: Preeta beta woh na..

Preeta stuffed her mouth with food.

Preeta:I know mom aap kya bolne wale ho..And seriously no chance..Main pak gyi hu sun sun ke..So..

Preeta kissed Sarla's cheek.

Preeta(smilingly): Bye Bye..

Preeta went towards her car.

Shrishti(laughing): Arre di ruko toh..

Sarla: Pata nhi kab yeh ladki shaadi ke liye maanegi..

Raghuveer remembered Karan.

Raghuveer: Pata nhi Sarla..Par Preeta ki shaadi usi se hogi jo sahi mayine mein uss ke kaabil ho..Jis ke liye hmari Preeta se badhkar kuch na ho..

Karan's flight landed. He was coming out of airport.

Sameer(shouting): Bhai..

Karan looked here and there and signed no. Sameer looked at him confused. He immediately ran and hugged Karan.

Sameer: Bhai I missed you so much..

Karan: Main tumhe nhi jaanta..

Sameer(glaring him): Bhai..

Karan:Kon ho tum..

Sameer: Bhai..Jyada ho rha hai..

Karan: Toh thoda insano ki tarah behave kar na..Yeh kya bhai bhai chilla rha hai..

Sameer: really? Kitne time baad dekh rha hu main aap ko..

Karan:Ab chale..ya aur nihaarna hai mujhe..

Sameer: Chalo..

Karan smiled at him and sidehugged him.

Karan: I missed you too..

Karan and Sameer moved towards car.

Karan: Drive main kruga..

Sameer: Kyu..Thak gye hoge..Lambi flight thi..

Karan: Chup kar..Bahut din hogye tera woh darra hua chehra dekhe..

Sameer(gulping): Bhai plz..Aaram se chalana..

Karan: Promise..

Sameer: Jaise aapne kaha aur maine maanlia..Sammy saare bhagwan ko yaad krle..Aaj unse meeting hone ke pure pure aasar hai..

Karan: And here we go..

Karan started driving.

On the other hand,

Preeta: Ha main bas office pahuchne hi wali hu..Main aake dekhti hu aur yeh..

Sameer(teasing): Bhai aap unse nhi miloge..

Karan(confused): Kis se..

Sameer: Preeta se..

Karan(smiling): Kyun nhi miluga..But kuch time baad..

And suddenly, his car bumped into someone's car.

Sameer:Bhai..Yeh kya..

Karan: Shit sammy..Tu thik hai na?Woh mera dhyan nhi tha..

Karan and Sameer came out to apologize.

Karan:See..

Preeta came out and saw her car. Karan looked at her shocked.

Oh dariya..Mujhe nhi jaana uss paar
Aya raanjha mera aaya raanjha mera

Preeta(angry): Aapko gaadi chalane ka license kisne diya..Yeh kaise chla rhe the aap..Ab..

She turned and saw Karan looking at her.

Preeran(in unison): Tum..

Preeta smiled looking at him.

Preeta:Bajarbattu..tum..

Karan: Babydoll...

Preeta ran and hugged him tightly. He smiled and hugged her back.

Oh dariya..Zara rokan do majhdar..
Aaya ranjha mera..Aaya ranjha mera

Preeta: Tum vaapis aagye..

Karan:Hmm..

Preeta: I missed you so much..

Karan:I missed you..

He closed his eyes and the moment she hugged him was when his decision of coming back felt right to him because no matter what, the feeling that she was in his arms was unexplainable. His soul was finally relieved after so long. She could keep him calm even in the dangerous storms and he was just so happy seeing her after so long.
