“Bin Aapke Kuch Bhi Aacha Nahi Lagta,Ab Mera Wajood Bhi Saccha Nahi Lagta.Sirf Aapke Deedar K Intezaar Me Kat Rahi Hai Zindagi..,” i find myself texting her back..
7 pm-
My best friend arrives just in time…she grabs my hand and starts pulling me to the car
Suddenly someone ties a cloth around my eyes and the next thing i realise is that i am being led to the car and driven away..
“Yeh kya ho raha hai..?” I yell trying to get my best friend best friend to answer but instead she just chuckels..
“Intezaar bhai ..Intezaar ” and she starts laughing again..
What is with this intezar word..?
I am starting to hate it now…
Soon we reach an open space i can guess so because once out of the car cool winds hit my face..
I was being led to somewhere ..propably inside i guess…
She twirls me around like i am some top and leaves my hand ..
I instantly remove the blindfold
Before i can say anything a large group of people scream “SURPRISE”
And yes indeed i am surprised..
People from office ..clients…business partners …almost everybody i know is present at the venue..
EXCEPT HER..!
Where is she..?
Just then a group of employees come to me and start apologising to me…
I look at them confused…
“Kya bath hai..? Aap sab sorry kyun keh rahe hai ..? I ask him questioningly..
And then he narrates what happened in the office
Flash back –
She hears a couple of employees bad mouthing about me…
“You are fired” she orders ..
“But mam…” they try to protest…
“Jab aap apne employer mai faith nai dikha sakte toh organisation mai kya dikhaenge..and i don’t want such employees who are a liabilty to my organisation” she says and goes to her cabin
The employees follow her to the cabin and she asks them a simple question
“Kya apne kabi sir ko kisi ladki ki taraf indecently dekhte ya usse flirt karte hue dekha hai..?” She asks them cooly
“Mam…wo mam..”. they say..
“Answer me damnit” she yells at top of her voice and for a second everybody stops their work and looks towards her cabin..
“No mam” they say..
” Then ..?? You are in this organisation since 5 years..instead of believing your employer whom you know since 5 years..you are believing somebody eho is a new joinee…Shame on you..”
Get lost from here before i change my mind” she says..
The employees come out and tell everyone what happened inside..
Everyone enters her cabin with lowering their heads and asks her for forgiveness..
I looked at them confused..
She did so much for me..?
Why..??
But where is she..?
Out of nowhere a client walks upto the center and says …
“Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen .. now i request the birthday boy to come up here and say a few words for her as we all know how she did for him..
Asking the girl to take back her complaint was the most difficult task but she did it ..
So come up here..” he said gesturing towards me…
“What complain..?” I blurt out
Her p.a walks upto me and tells me how the new accountant had complained about me molesting her
“Par mam ne cctv footing k help se sabh sambhal lia” she adds proudly..
I am dumbstruck listening to everyone..
“Mam is really awesome..Hain na sir ??” She questions..
“Haan aisa hain mera Humrahi” i said grinning sheepishly and running a hand through my hair..
I want to see her so bad now…
Where is she..?
“Sir we have seen your dance at sir’s wedding…but we want you to sing something for us today” my employees plead..
Out of nowhere someone hands me a guitar..
I make myself comfortable on one of the bar stools…
Kuch nai mangoon
bas hai mera ek sapna
dunya se kya lena dena
bas chahiye ek apna
hooo
dharkan khawahish barish boondein
aur ho koi apna
us se mil k mausam badlay
aur lage sab apna
mein kahan aur mere khayal kahan
teri yaad hai per visaal kahan
baat banti nahi banane se
reet hai yehi zamanay se
ab k jo palat k dekhun
sehmi si hain rahein
thamein mere sapno ko
khamoshi se bhulaye
dil se jo dua de
aysa hai mera humrahi
meethi si saza de
aysa hai mera humrahi
hoooo
dharkan khawahish barish boondein
aur ho koi apna
us se mil k mausam badlay
aur lage sab apna
hoo meri chahaton ka sawaal jahan
us ki pyar ki misaal wahan
baat banti nahi banane se
reet hai yehi zamanay se
ab k jo palat k dekhun
sehmi si hain rahein
thamein mere sapno ko
khamoshi se bhulaye
dil se jo dua de
waisa hai mera humrahi
meethi si saza de
waisa hai mera humrahi
hoooo
dharkan khawahish barish boondein
aur ho koi apna
us se mil k mausam badlayaur lage sab apna
dharkan khawahish barish boondein
aur ho koi apna
us se mil k mausam badlayaur lage sab apna
dil se jo dua de
waisa hai mera humrahi
Hum Rahiii
I finish and open my eyes..she is standing in front of me with her sweet smile..
Her point of view-
He finished singing and opened his eyes…i flashed my best smile at him…he returns back the smile .. i slowly walk up to him and flung my arms around him..
“It was awesome” i whisper in his ears and he blushes…
Aww sho cute..!! I dint know my hottie could blush too
He then reciprocates the hug and leans in to kiss my lips..
I shift uneasily and try to wiggle free from his grip.
But…he tightens his grip and chuckels..
“Mera Bachha..!” He says and then he does something which i will remember through out my life..
He kissed my forhead and said “Don’t worry ..! I have my entire life to do that” ..
I felt overjoyed…relieved…he loved me…me as a person and not me as a body…
Its time to put all my guards down…
And with that i put my head on his chest…
He interwines my fingers with his and slips a ring in my left hand..
“Chale shri-mati-ji..?” He says looking right into my eyes..
“Chaliye ” and then we both head out of the party to our river side…
Sometimes i love you is not needed to express ur feelings ..
With this last chapter its stoneheart signing off..
