Jab Hum Miley-Ek Bar Phir

~Ae Dil Hai Mushkil~

The sun rays were peeking inside the very well decorated yet modern bedroom. The curtains on the window were trying to block this invasion but were miserably failing to do so, this continuous hide and seek between the curtains and sun rays ended up breaking Haseena's deep slumber. She looked around the room and after not finding herself in her hotel room, she panicked. She was in totally different surroundings, just for a moment she thought something terrible must have happened but when her eyes landed on the photo frame on the side table, she exhaled a sharp yet relaxed breath.

"Hum, Karishma Singh ke ghar kya kar rahe hain, aye kese yaha hum," Haseena questioned herself. She checked herself, first, she peeked inside her dress and then she moved her hands around her body to check in for any misadventures of last night. There was nothing, she inhaled a sharp yet relaxed breath. "Hum kar kya rahe hain yahan?" She asked herself once again, "Hum to date per gaye the nahh, phir yahan keise? Bahut se sawal hai...Humain, Karishma Singh se hi pochna ho ga."

Haseena was trying to get up when she felt a sharp pain radiating from her arm to elbow, "Is ke bare main to hum bhool hi Gaye the and why is this band-aid so red? she asked herself once again. "I must have put pressure on it during sleep," she answered to herself. "Let me change that later," she murmured. "Why can't I recall anything? I feel like I am losing my mind. Darn it!" She hit the bed with her left hand in frustration.

"Ouchhh! Hamara Saar," she yelped. "Ye Ho kya Raha hai. Kal humara hath zakhmi ho gaya or abb ye saar dard se phata ja raha hai. Kuch zyada hi pee li thi humne kal raat, shayed! abb, Bughtoo," she said under her breath. She was sitting on the bed while holding her head between her hands when she heard the knock on the door.

"A Jaye," Haseena responds with an audible voice.

Karishma entered the room. "Wo hum aap ko hi dhekne aye the, app uth gayi hai, to please fresh ho jaye...Hum ne nashta bana liya hai, app Bahar a jaye, Hum wait..." Karishma wasn't even done speaking when Haseena interrupted her, "Aaye...Hum Abhi aap ke bare main hi soch rahi thi....Humein kal raat kaa kuch bhi yaad nahi...aap batain gi humain....kya hua tha, please?" Haseena said pleadingly.

Upon Haseena's request, Karishma started to look around the room while avoiding eye contact with her. Haseena's this query made Karishma's heartbeat faster and the memories of the last night started to flood in.

Haseena noticed the red hue on Karishma's check. "Aree! Inhe kya ho Gaya (yeh itna Sharma kyun rahi hain)" she looked at herself first and then around her but she didn't find anything out of ordinary.

"Karishma Singh! sab theek hai naa," Haseena asked with an inquisitive look.

"Ji sab theek hai, app fresh ho jaye, hum intezar kar rahe hai aap ka Bahar," Karishma said hesitatingly(She just wants to rush out of this room without waiting for an extra minute. But, once she was done speaking, she stood there for Haseena's response).

"Theek hai, Hum aate hai. App chaliye...aur Haan, Humain Kal raat ki sari details chaye," after saying that, Haseena moved towards the bathroom but Karishma's voice stopped her.

"App humari almari se koi bhi comfortable Shirt choose kar sakte hain, jo bhi aap ko fit aye. Hum aapke wait kar rahe hain bahar," Karishma repeated once again while staring at Haseena's back.

"Hmmm..," Haseena felt Karishma's heated gaze on her back but without looking back, she went into the bathroom.

Karishma stood there for a while in a trance without realizing that Haseena had already left; she was still unable to comprehend that they had crossed paths again.

On the other hand, Haseena was standing in front of the bathroom mirror, trying to analyze herself. She was moving her face left to right to see if there was anything on her face and after finding nothing, she thought of Karishma and her flushed face. "There must be something," she murmured. She put her hair on the left shoulder and there she saw the red mark on her neck, it was right underneath her ear and was very visible, a smile appeared on her face. She touched the spot on her neck tenderly and the memories of last night started to flash in front of her eyes. "So, this was the reason for her flushed face," Haseena said under her breath.
