Sia: Dad, vo hamare friends exams ke baad ek week ke lie Rishikesh and Mussoorie jaa rahe Hain. Kya hum bhi....

He looked up at her.

Sia: Aap mana karenge to nahin jaenge.

Her father smiled at this, ' Thik hai, chali jaana. Par abhi padhai. '

Sia hugged her father.

Sia: Dad, you are the best. Thanks alot.

She went to her room to give the news to her friends.

---------------------------------------------------------

Today was the last day of the exams. All four had studied well and till then all their papers went great. But today was Accounts and being a commerce student all were a little nervous.

After paper,

Sia: Kaisa hua paper?

Aliyah: Shaandar Jaandar Jabardast.

Arjun: Sab fit hai, hit hai, lit hai.

Raghav was silent.

Sia: Raghav, kaisa hua paper?

Raghav: Bahut bekar.

Sia: But tumne to bahut acche se padha tha. Paper easy bhi tha. Kya ho gaya phir?

Raghav: Paper complete nahi kar paya main.

Sia looked genuinely sad for Raghav and held his hand when suddenly she heard him laughing. She looked at him in surprise.

Raghav: Arry, bechari Sia. Kitni jaldi buddhu ban gayi. Hahaha. You are so naive. Main mazak kar raha tha. Tumhe lagta hai ki Raghav Oberoi ka paper kabhi kharab jaega?

Sia spat out angrily.. Bhagwaan kare ki tum fail ho jao. Dara dia humko.

Raghav: Accha sorry na. Vaise, you didn't mean it when you said that I should fail, right.

Sia: Hmm.

Raghav: Accha baba sorry. Lo dairy milk.

She snatched it from his hand and devoured it while he looked at her amused.

Arjun: Ho gaya tum log ka to ab trip discuss kare?

Sia: Haan sure. Is lallu se baat karne se accha hai ki tumhari baat sun le.

Before Raghav could protest Arjun started telling about the plan.

It was decided that they would leave on the weekend in Arjun's Jeep. First they will go to Rishikesh, where they will stay for three days then they will leave for Mussoorie where the stay will be of 2 days. They will be back by next week. All the reservations at hotel will be done by Raghav.

Sia was very excited for the trip. This was the first time she would go out with her friends. Also Mussoorie where she will meet Ruskin Bond... Her favorite writer.

She desperately waited for weekend.

Finally came the day of trip. With a lot of instructions from her parents especially her mom, she stepped down to the car.

She had a bag and she asked Raghav to keep it in the Jeep.

Raghav: Naukar nahin hoon. Pehle pyaar se please bolo tab karunga.

This annoyed Sia.

Sia: Get away. Hum khud rakh lenge.

Amused, Raghav stood there blocking her way.

How she wanted to slap that stupid grin off his face. Her angry eyes looked into Raghav's amused ones.

Arjun interrupted the glaring match between them and helped Sia in keeping her luggage.

Finally when they were settled,

Sia: Aliyah kahan hai?

A hand came up from the backseat followed by a very sleepy voice, ' Yahan. Neend aa rahi hai. Itni subah subah aa gaye sab.'

Sia: It's 6 a.m. Aliyah.

There was no reply intending that Aliyah had slept.

Arjun was driving. After an hour, they took a break and stopped at a restaurant waking Aliyah up. After some refreshment they decided to continue.

Arjun: Raghav, bhai main thak gaya. Ab tu drive kar.

Now Raghav went to the driving seat and Arjun went to the backseat with Aliyah. Sia was on the passenger seat beside Raghav.

Sia was reading a book. Raghav looked at her and decided to tease her.

Raghav: Yaar, mujhse baat karo to tum yahan book padh rahi ho.

Sia: Concentrate on the road while driving. Savdhani hati durghatna ghati. Suna nahi kabhi.

Raghav snatched the book from her hand.

Raghav: Arry, Ruskin Bond. Wow. You like him?

Sia: Yes , I do. Now give me the book Raghav Oberoi.

Raghav: Naah goriye... Naah Naah Naah Naah goriye.

Sia looked at him angrily and sat back crossing her arms on her chest with a cute pout. Raghav smiled and shook his head.

Sia finally turned on the radio. Her favorite journey song Maahi Ve was playing. She hummed to the tune when Raghav switched it off.

Sia: Kya hai yaar, Raghav. Irritate mat karo.

Raghav: Tum mujhse baat nahi kar sakti.. but songs sun sakti ho. Use accha meri baatein suno.

Sia: Ohh please, kahan ye sweet and soothing songs and kahan tumhari irritating voice. And dare you shut it off now.

She played it again but Raghav switched it off.

Irritated Sia pulled out her earphones and played song on it and closed her eyes.

Raghav looked at her and felt at peace. She looked beautiful sleeping.

Sia: Aise mat dekho, humko nazar lag jaegi.

Raghav was snapped out of his thoughts.

Raghav: Mujhe laga tum so rahi ho.

Sia: Tum aise dekhte rahoge to hum so kaise paenge?

Raghav: Sorry.

Sia smiled at him and turned her face.

Raghav played the radio bringing instant smile on Sia's face. She hummed to the tune of the song. After some time, Raghav and Sia changed their places.

Raghav: Pakka drive karna aata hai na? Accident to nahin karvaogi? Sab Rishikesh pahunch jaenge na?

Sia: Nahi hum sab Rishikesh jaenge, sirf tum hospital jaoge.

Raghav: Hey Bhagwaan ji bacha Lena aaj mujhe.

Arjun: Abe drama queen, chal le ab. Tujhse jyada bharosa mujhe Sia par hai.

Raghav sat on the passenger seat and Sia started driving. Soon Raghav slept.
Sia felt bored and turned on the radio.
A Bhojpuri song, ' Lagawelu jab lipstick' was playing on it. She smiled and other three woke up laughing.

Sia got embarrassed.

Sia: Arry vo tumlog so gaye the na to hum kya karte?

Hearing this they laughed and started dancing on this, thus easing her.

Finally they reached Rishikesh and got down at their hotel.

Once in their room, they decided to go kayaking next day and then dozed off wherever they found space.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

Hi people,

I konw I am very late. But this chapter was worth it, right?

Finally they are on the trip. Did you like the small fight between our SiRa? I did.

Also as I am a science student, I don't know about the most terrifying sunject of commerce guys, so I selected Accounts on the basis of what my friends say. Hope it is right.

Moving on, what are your guys favorite songs while on a trip? Also kis kis ne Lagawelu jab lipstick suna hai? Ab ye mat kehna ki nahi suna because this song is omnipresent literally. 😂😂😂😂😂

Mine are alot. Such as, Maahi Ve from Highway. Patakha Guddi from same movie. And Journey song from Piku and many others. Tell me if you have some suggestions.

Finally, they are on a trip. Alot more to come. This trip will decide a lot of things between our beautiful pairs.

Until then,
Love Love ♥️
