En Route Love

Pt : 5 "Anjana Anjani"

After sometime the flight attendant started instructing the rules to follow, but tripura did'nt paid the attention as she was busy in reading a book 

Karan : Excuse me 

Tripura looked at him with irritation 

Tripura : Now what ?

Karan : The flight is now about to take off so i think you should put on your seat belt now

Tripura looked around everyone was doing the same so she put the book aside and was trying to wrapped the seat belt, seeing her struggling with that

Karan : If you dont mind i can help you

Tripura : Did i ask you for help ? i can manage 

enave tontaravu ! she muttered (so disturbing in tamil)

Karan : What did you said ?

Tripura : Not your bussiness

Karan : Okay you dont have enough time now let me do it

Then karan helped her to put that belt on due to that tripura felt his touch for the very first time but that made her so uneasy

Tripura : Why did you do ...she stopped at the halfway as she heard the final annoucment that the flight is ready to take off now,she got tensed and started sweating a lot karan noticed that

Karan : What happend to you ? are you okay ?

Tripura : I am fine, bahut dino baad flight se travel kar rahi hun toe just feeling a little nervous

Karan : Are you sure you dont have a phobia ? then you should stop looking trough the window while its taking off

Tripura looked at him in surprise, how he sensed this correctly that she has a phobia

Tripura : Will you please keep mind your own bussiness i dont wanted to hear anything from you now

Karan : Okay as your wish 

Then karan put on his headphone on and started listening to music

Just then when the strated taking off tripura closed her eyes with fear and unknowingly grabbed karan's hand so tightly so karan looked at her

Karan : Hello please calm down take a deep breath come on dont get panic please breath easy 

Tripura : I hate flights i am gonna die oh my god 

Karan : Oh come on just keep your eye shut everything will be fine 

After sometime karan said

Now open your eyes its all fine..

Tripura slowly open her eyes and felt relived but realised that she was holding his hand so she quickly relesed his hand 

Karan : Kuch hua marr gayi tum ?

Tripura : Haan thik hain,i am sorry

Karan : Oho someone said sorry its okay sometimes it happens by the way itni der ho gayi baat kar rahe hain but we dont even know each other name , hi i am karan khanna and you ?

Tripura : Tripura sundari nagrajan

Karan : Wait what ? ye teeno tumhare hi naam hain ? usually sabke ek hi naam hote hain tumhare teen hain kaamal hain

Tripura gave a irritated look to him

Karan : Ok ok i am sorry i was just kidding,by the way going U.S for the first time ?

Tripura nodded her head to yes

Karan : kisi kaam se ?

Tripura : Haan wo

She stopped and started thinking

Why should i share everything about myself with a starnger no thats not right

Tripura : Wo i am going to meet one of my realtive there

Karan : Okay nice

Tripura : And you ?

Karan : I used to live there  actually i am a chef and i have a small returant in queens newyork,but i usually travel to mumbai often ,family se mil leta hun aur mujhe recipes ke saath experiments karne ka bahut shaukh hain so indian masale bhi india mein hi jayada acche milte hain

its really hard to find authentic indian masala in newyork and i belive masala adds the the soul to a curry

waise mein to baat karta hi jaa raha hun i hope you are not feeling bore

Tripura : No i am not feeling bore at all you can continue 

After sometime an attendant came there to took the meal order but karan ordered some non veg food for himself and tripura ordered a salad 

Tripura : If you dont mind can i ask you something ?

Karan : yes ofcourse

Tripura : Aap ye nonveg khana yahan khane wale hain kya ?

Karan : Haan its ,y seat where should i go ?

Tripura : No actually i cant bear the smell of it so

Karan : Oh okay okay sorry why didnt you said this before mein abhi order change karke kuch veg kha leta hun

Tripura : No but ?

Karan : Oh its okay i like veg too so dont worry

Then karan went to change his order

Tripura in mind : He is not as bad as i thought of very sensible

A slight curve appeared on her  face
