It had been quite some time when Sana returns after doing some work. She finds a lady sitting with Sidharth.

Lady: Suno, Meri nanand ki nanand ke liye ladka doondh rahe hai. Tum mujhe bahut achche ladke dikh rahe ho. Apni maa babuji ka number de do, hum rishtey ki baat chalate hai.

Sidharth: Ji... nahi.. (he nods no)

Lady: (speaks in between) Arey! Dahej ki chinta mat kar. Ladki waale bahut ameer hai, jo chahe maang lena.(whispers)

Sidharth: Par main nahi karna chahta shaadi..

Lady: Ohhh!! (Places her palm on her lips) Kahi tum waise toh nahi? Body Shody se achche kaase launde nazar aate ho ki pata hi nahi chalta.

Sidharth: Ji.. aap kaisi baat kar rahi ho? Main waisa nahi hoon.

Lady: Toh kya problem hai. Ruko main ladki ko bulaati hoon, bahut hi sundar hai woh. Tum baat karlo phir shayad mann bann jaye.

The lady starts scrolling her phone.

Sana: Arey Sidharth ji, aapka dyaan kaha hai? Dekhye Suraj neeche zameen pe baitke khel raha hai. Pura kapda kharab kar liya apna.

Lady: Yeh kaun hai?

Sana: Ji, Namastey. Main inki dharam patni aur yeh humara beta, Suraj. Beta Aunty ko namaste karo.

Kid: Namaste Aunty.

Lady: Haaye, tum shaadi shudha ho? (To Sidharth)

Sidharth was surprised himself. To save himself from the lady's torture, he nods yes.

Lady: Toh itni der bola kyu nahi? (Whispers in his ears) Waise ye bachcha naa toh tumhare jaise dikhta hai naa tumhari patni ke jaisa.

Sidharth: (gulps) Woh, yeh meri dusri patni hai. Mera beta meri pehli patni ke jaisa dikhta hai.

Lady: Arey arey! Tumne toh do do shaadi kar li hai. Waise pehli biwi ko kya hua tha?

Sidharth fumbles as he didn't know what to answer.

Sana: Main batati hoon. Usko na khusar-pusar karne ki bahut gandi aadat thi aur dusron ke maamle mein bahut taang adaati thi, toh kisine uska murder kar diya.

The lady gulps in fear.

Lady: Main.. main.. chalti hoon... kuch kaam yaad aa gaya..

She gets up and leaves. Sana starts giggling whereas Sidharth glares at Sana.

Sana: Kya hua? Aise kyu ghoor rahe ho?

Sidharth: Meri biwi ke baare mein itni anaab shanaab baate karte sharam nahi aayi? Khus-pus, taang adana aur murder fir bhi kar diya?

Sana: Oye? Itna kyu hyper ho rahe ho? Koi sach ka murder thode hi kiya maine? (Pauses) Oh God! I'm sorry, tumhari sach mein biwi hai?

Sidharth: Huh? Nahi. Main abhi kuwara hoon.

Sana: Toh! Itna emotional kyu ho gaye? Pehle to tumne khudh apni imaginary pehli biwi ko mere liye chodd diya woh bhi ek bachche ke hote huye. Sharm nahi aayi?

Sidharth: Maine kaha choddha?

Sana: Huh? Haaye main lutt gayi barbaad ho gayi. Matlab mere se jhoot bola ki tumhari pehli biwi se talak ho gaya aur mujhse shaadi bhi kar liya.. (fake cries)

Sidharth: Maine kab bola ye? Oye!! Sorry sorry. Ab chup ho jao koi dekhega toh mujhe sach mein peet dega.

Sana giggles.

Sidharth: Waise tumhe dekh ke lagta hai tum ek hi piece ho aisi, jab bhagwaan ne banaya hoga na tumhe socha hoga "Arey rey, yeh ek hi zalzala kaafi hai puri duniya hilaane ke liye. Aisi aur nahi banani." Toh aisa soch kar factory band kar diya hoga.

Sana: Taarif kar rahe ho ki buraayi?

Sidharth: Arey, ye kaise ho gaya? Sana toh hosiyaar thi, aaj kaise nahi samjhi meri baat?

Sana: Illogical baat karoge toh kisi bhi logical bande ko samajh mein nahi aayega.

Sidharth: Illogical? Aur main? Sawaal hi nahi. Mere samne toh logics bhi fail hai.

Sana: Offo!! Inta confidence? Haan, yeh bhi sahi hai, jo aadmi bina dare stage pe jaake khaali lifafa de ke, dulha dulhan ke saath khadhe hoke, photo kichwaata hai, uska confidence toh kamaal ka hai..

Sidharth smiles.

Sana: Chalo mujhe bahut bhook lagi hai, khaane chalte hai. Kal mujhe college bhi jaana hai.

Sidharth: Kaunsa college?

Sana: D.. (pauses and bites her tongue) Ahaa.. bahut chant ho.. Main kyu batao?

Sidharth: Toh kya zindagi bhar aise hi kismat pe depend hoke, kisi na kisi ke shaadi mein milna hoga? Kal ek din nahi mili toh maine tumhe bahut miss kiya.

Sana: Huh? Baawle ho gaye ho? Mujhe toh tum jaante bhi nahi, itna kyu miss karoge?

Sidharth: Achcha lagta hai tumse milna aur tumhare saath time spend karna. Aaj kal gate crash ki main reason tum hi ban gayi ho. Warna main roz roz gate crash karne walon mein se nahi hoon.

Sana: Achcha? Mera toh mera pet hi reason hai gate crash karne ka, tumhara kya reason hai.

Sidharth: Kisi aur din bataunga.

Sana: Huh!! Khudh toh apne baare mein kabhi batate nahi aur janaab ko mera pata aur number chahiye..

Sidharth: Achcha? Sach mein tum mere baare mein janna chahti ho? Itna interested ho mujh mein?

Sana: (laughs) Galat fehmi hai aapki. Main kisi se attachment nahi banati. Sab chodke chale jaate hai isiliye agar kisi din mujhe laga ki meri kisi se attachment badh rahi hai toh main khudh apna raasta badal lungi.

Sidharth was shocked.

Yeh aise kaise baat kar rahi hai? Matlab isko mere se abhi woh attachment nahi huyi jo mujhe isse huyi hai aur agar ho jaaye toh ye mujhe chodd degi. Kaha invest kar diya emotions maine? Bahut buri tarah phasne wala hoon main..

Sidharth: Agar tumhe kisi din sach mein kisi se pyaar ho gaya toh?

Sana: Hmmm.. socha nahi kyuki main waisi feelings ko apne aas paas batakne bhi nahi deti. Rukho main jaake is chintu ko iske baapu ke paas chodd aati hoon. Phir khaana khaake nikalna hai mujhe.

She goes to leave the kid and when she returns she couldn't find Sidharth anywhere. He was gone. She goes and takes dinner, she eats it lost in her thoughts. She wondered why did he leave without having dinner.

Adi: Suno kal shaamko tum sabko mere ghar aana hai.

Sana: Main nahi..

Adi: (Presses Sana's mouth with his palm) Chup!! Ek dum chup!! (Leaves her mouth) Kal mera birthday hai yaar, aur mujhe ye birthday tum logon ke saath celebrate karna hai bas. Koi badi party nahi, gifts bhi mat lana bas tum teeno aa jana.

Ruhi: I am in! So excited, I will be getting to see the Oberoi Mansion finally. (Speaks in excitement)

JP: Kitne bajje aana hai aur ed-dres kya hai tamaare ghor ka?

Adi: Main WhatsApp kar dunga.

Adi looks at Sana who was lost. She was looking at the TV screen in the canteen.

Adi: Kya hua Sana? Tum aa rahi ho na?

Sana: Huh?

Adi: Please Sana. Yeh har baar tum avoid kyu karti ho? Kabhi toh maan jao. Atleast birthday ke din toh disappoint math karo.

Sana: Okay! Aa jaungi, khush?

Adi: Very very khush!

Side hugs her. Ruhi makes annoyed face.

Sana: Oh my God!! (Shocked)

Adi: Kya hua?

Sana: Woh TV pe. (Points on screen)

Adi: (reads the headlines) "Mittal group ke C.E.O ke assistant, Joe D'Souza ne phasi lagakar aatmahatya kar liya. Aatmahatya ka karan abhi pata nahi chala." Kya hua? Tum isko jaanti ho?

Sana: Yeh wahi interviewer hai jisko maine do din pehle maara tha.

Ruhi: What? Kahi iski aatmahatya ke karan tumhara maarna toh nahi?

Sana looks at her in shock.

Ruhi: (laughs) Relax babes. Achcha hua mar gaya. Tu itna kyu ghabra rahi hai? Main teri jagah hoti toh celebrate karti.

Adi: Haan! This time I agree with Ruhi. Kameena, achcha hua khudh marr gaya, nahi toh main maar daalta.

Sana: Chup raho tum log. Main chalti hoon. Mujhe hostel jana hai.

Adi: (rolls his eyes) Okay sorry yaar. Bait jao, itni jaldi kya hai hostel jaane ki?

Sana: Kal test hai, mujhe padhna hai.

JP: Achcha yaad dilaya, muze bhi podhna hai. Maiy bhi jaata hoon.

Adi: Aur tu Ruhi? Tujhe nahi padhna?

Ruhi: I think I can wait here and spend sometime with you. Test ka kya hai, Sana se copy kar lungi.

Adi: Wah kya confidence hai? Superb! Par hum dono baitke kya karenge, chalo main bhi apne ghar chalta hoon..

Ruhi frowns and they all go to their respective homes.

Sana dresses up and goes to the wedding. It had been 2 days since she hadn't met Sidharth. She secretly wished to meet him today but it was all in vain as she didn't meet him. She did some odd jobs at the wedding and had her dinner and left.
.

JP calls up Sana and he tells her that he will pick her up and they will go to Oberoi Mansion together.

As decided, JP gets his scooter and Sana occupies the seat behind. JP was riding the scooter so slow that even a cycle could overtake them. Sana was irritated.

Sana: Oye JP, main chalao scooter?

JP: Pappa ki phat-phati hai, tumne kohi accident kor diya toh pappa mujhe maar-maar ke dhokla bonadenge.

Sana: Nahi yaar. Mujhe aata hai scooter chalana, Indore mein sikha tha aur licence bhi hai mere paas. Tu fikar na kar.

JP: Raine de Sana. May chala raa hoon

Sana: Kya khaakh chala raha hai? Main paidal tere se race lagakar jeet sakti hoon. Ab de warna mujhe uttaar de neeche.

JP gives up and becomes a pillion rider. Sana rides to the Oberoi Mansion.

JP: Sana, slow slow chala please.

Sana: Slow hi hai yaar. Koi Harley Davidson nahi hai ye jo 180 ke speed se chala rahi hoon. Ab tu chup bait warna mera dyaan hata toh durghatna bhi ho sakta hai.

JP: So-ri So-ri.. dhyaan se cholana ho!!

They arrive at Oberoi Mansion. Adi stood outside and waved at them. She parks the scooter and Adi welcomes them.

Sana wishes him happy birthday by giving him a side hug and JP wished him by shaking hands and giving him a proper bro hug.

Adi: Sana you are looking so divinely gorgeous in this outfit.

Sana: Thanks. Puraani hi hai. Itni over taarif mat kar..

Adi: (laughs) But you are looking beautiful. Kyu JP?

JP: Haan Sana, You are looking very Beauty-fool..

Sana: Okay, Thank you both

Adi: Achcha? JP bola toh jhatt se maan liya?

JP blushes and Sana glares at Adi.

Adi: (Laughs) Let's go inside.

Just then a chauffeur driven car stops at the gate and Ruhi gets down from it. Ruhi adjusted her short thigh revealing skirt and hugged Adi by snaking her hands around his neck and pressing a long kiss on his cheeks near the corner of his lips while wishing him. Adi quickly pulled back as he felt uncomfortable with the hug and the kiss. He looked at Sana who subtly smiled.

Sana: (giggles) Ruhi tera lipstick toh pura kharab ho gaya.

Ruhi: Koyi baat nahi. It looks better on his cheeks than my lips. (Winks)

Adi searches his pocket nervously. Sana forwards her handkerchief to him. He takes it and wipes off the lipstick mark profusely while Ruhi and JP looked at Oberoi Mansion's exteriors.

Sana: Arey bas, chala gaya. Gaal bhi noch loge kya apni?

Adi smiles and thinks - Tumhari wajah se jhel raha hoon iss fevicol ko warna isko main apne paas bhi na bhatakne doon. Pata nahi Sana kya soch rahi hogi?
