All her way Raavi had lots of thoughts lingering on her head, so much of curiosity, so many questions, was she so dumb that she had missed noticing things like this, like Shiva being romantic and him having a girlfriend...sounded like a joke but still after what she saw today and the way he back questioned her instead of asnwering she knew something was wrong, she needed to know,she definetly needed to find out what was the matter, indeed Shiva was having a love affair going on but how kn warth did no one knew about it or even if they did they hold that so well that she didn't find it out...she thought to herself.
As she reached home and went to the kitchen to prepare for dinner she tied her hair into a bun, and started a song which too was though not the first time she was listening but too find out what Shiva wanted to convey and that too, to whom she started playing "Sawan barse,tarse dil" on her playlist...the song to as if absorbed her into its melodious tunes; she kept playing it on loop while cooking...she was still thinking of what if Shiva had a girlfriend and how would he be behaving with her, unknowingly, she started making imaginary scenarios in her head...
She saw Shiva hugging a girl that too lovingly, making her sit on his bike and going on dates with her and feeding her food...she was shocked, maybe from imagining she went to believing that scenes, the girl's face wasn't visible but she can see Shiva flirting, smiling, blushing and even laughing.
Oh, what Shiva was that, he had been literal opposite to her since always, and wasn't she the only girl in his life, though an enemy...then what was this new girlfriend fiasco...and how dare Shiva become extra sweet to any chudail when she was there...how could hug someone else because whenever she tried to hug him, he bas pushed her away rudely; when she wanted him to drop her home, he was least interested and in fact hated doing that prima facie.. And what about the times she had told her to take her to eat panipuri or kachori or vadapav he had just replied like, "zeher khaayegi?" And even if he took he kept teasing her for eating like a dinosaur, her face was growing red,tears beaming up....she was already fuming in anger now.Afterall, no one was as close as her to Shiva and no one else could, and how dare she hide these and even dare to date...let him come home and then She would talk with her.She finished chores with large sounds of utensils clashing as her anger was reaching peaks now...
It was evening by now and as Shiva wrapped up when he got the message where Krish would be staying over at his friend's house for a project (a night over) so it was just two of them at home now and he had no idea of how was he going to tackle this Chipkali. ofcourse he did knew that he was going to be bombarded with lots and lots of questions and that too with all the details and ofcourse a story which she can believe...wasn't this Mami ki behen ki beti too much to deal he thought to himself.But no matter what he had understood what Gaumbi meant when he said this and then after seeing her behaviour he was sure that even if she won't tell and she keeps telling that she has a crush on Dev,it was actually him who she was attracted too and vice versa the case.As he entered the home, he could feel the tension in there, he just saw her in the kitchen and oh, was she listening to the same song he had been singing, he smiled seeing this as he thought how dobi was she trying to figure out I meant when I sung it,he chuckled to himself,after all this gadhedi was his and no one could've handled her he thought to himself.
As if she had sensed it's him she just turned only to find him gazing at her, though she had a lot of ways to attack hima with questions now she just went to her phone and stopped the song,afterall he doesn't have to know whether she was thinking about him or not, and with a smirk she started walking towards him, and before he could realise she was so close to him, she held his collars and asked him,",Ghoor kya raha hai...voh chudail dikh gai kya mujhme?", To which fumbling he answered, "Kon...kon chudail? Mai to sirf ek chudail ko jaanta hu aur voh tu hai...aur yeh kya kar rahi hai chod mujhe" and shrugged her hands of, she too was reluctant so held his collars again and asked with a firm but broken voice and teary eyes but with anger beaming on her,"Sach sach bata Shiva kisse pyaar karta hai koi toh chudail haina jiske liye tu voh gaana ga raha tha...bada aaya usse baarish mein ghumaane vala,bike ride pe leke jaane vala aur dates pe aur toh aur khana khilaane vala...Mujhe chipkali bolta hai aur voh jo tujhse chipakti hai uska kya...tab tujhe koi dikkat nahi hoti...jab dekho mujhse rudely baat karta hai aur usse pyaar se baat karta hai...ek baar kaam kholke sunle jo bhi teri voh chudail ho usko boldena tujhse dur rahe warna mujhse bura koi nahi hoga!!" And left his collars.Shiva watched her in disbelief, totally dumbstroke...he wanted to laugh out so badly, his Chipkali was jealous...so so jealous, and wait did she actually made an imaginary girlfriend of mine in her head he thought to himself barely controlling her laughter but no way he could be defeated by her so he added, "Pehli baat toh chipkali yeh tu merese ese bata nahi kar sakti...aur aur yeh kya sawal pe sawal kiye ja rahi hai...kya kehna kya chahti hai tu?", She was so engrossed in her anger and her 'imaginary' reality that she wasn't able to notice amusement which was clearly visible on his face so she just shrugging off said, "Dekh, saaf saaf sidhe sidhe shabdo mein bata rahi hu...voh jo bhi chudail hai usse dur reh tu nai jaayega uske sath kahi bhi, nahi milega usse,varna mai na..." And she had no idea what to say next so she just stopped as her eyes met his eyes, they shared an eye-contact when Shiva held her shoulders and as if pulling him closer, he asked,"bolna mai kya?...kya karegi tu..?" And boom she cameback to reality where she realised how close they were, indeed she got affected from their proximity, so when nothing came to her mind, she repeated one of his all time dialogue which he used to say when she used to rant about her and Dev's marriage and her coming to pandya niwas, with firm voice she said, "Toh mai...Pure somnath ko jala dungi..samjha!" And she left his collars, as a result he also loosened his grip over her shoulders and said narrowing his eyes, "Ek baat bata yeh tu meri nakal kyu kar rahi hai...bandariya hai pata hai par tu yeh haq mere pe kis baat ka chala rahi hai", this came like a sudden reality to her, he was right, on what basis was she implying this as a right on him when she claimed Dev as her crush and was busy doing his jaap whole day...then what was she and Shiva, what was their bond...she was totally confused but it was also truth that on even imagining Shiva with someone else,winced her heart in a strange pain.
Shiva on not getting any reply, thought of not irritating her more because she already was so zoned out right now,maybe she needed some time...so he said breaking the silence told her, "Tu yeh sab chod mai fresh hoke aata hu khana kha lete hai fir baatein karenge...", and she still thinking about things replied, "Haann...chal".
When they sat for dinner and started eating it, the lights went off.Raavi screamed as she had feared darkness like anything, to which Shiva said, "Abe chipkali chup reh sirf lights gai hai ruk fuse dekhke aata hu...tujhe to bas mauka chahiye chudailo jese chillane ka", she fumbled as she said, "Bas kar Shiva tujhe pata haina mujhe darr lagta hai ese sab mat Bola kar...aur aur tu ruk mai bhi aaungi tere saath...", he was now in mood to tease her more so he added, "Tu toh badi sherni bani ghumti hai...abhi kya bolrahi thi pura somnath jala dungi(as if he was immmitating her), aur andhere mein raha nahi ja raha...huh shechu kahi ki ek no. Ki fattu hai tu, chal ab."
