It was the day of Holi. The splashes of colours and the aroma of the delicious food created the vibe of the festival. People, dressed in white attires, were either running behind each other to put colours, some were savouring the various sweets being prepared, while some were feeding themselves with the alcoholic drinks.
Preet: Yeh Mini kahan reh gayi yaar!!!
Swara (pointing to some direction): There she is!!
And there was Mini, holding hands with Neil, looking here and there. Like everyone, both of them were dressed in white ethnics. She looked extremely pretty, and he looked handsome as ever. Mini's sight fell on Preet and Swara. She gestured Neil and they both approached them.
Preet (hugging her): Kahan reh gayi thi tu? You both are late!!!
Swara: Very late infact. Aas paas dekho, sab Holi khel chuke hain.
Mini: Aur tum dono bhi Holi khel chuke ho?!! Wait nahi kar sakte the humara?? 🤨
Swara: Arrey humare baaki friends aur neighbours ne zabardasti .. you know naa, how it is.
Preet (whispered): Aur waise humne toh unse kaha tha ki humari ek friend apne "husband" ke saath almost aa hi rahi hai... Toh abhi humein rang mat lagana lekin phir humne socha tumhe apni personal Holi bhi toh khelni hogi 😏
Mini: Oye shut up!! Jab dekho, teri yehi baatein chalti rehti hain... 😑
While they were talking about random things, Neil was just adoring her, the way she smiles, the way her goofiness surfaces, the way she teases her friends, the way she kind of blushes when they tease her about him, the way her eyes twinkled with excitement.... He realised one thing, that her friends, mean a lot to her. And as good as this was, there was something that made him worry too. (Shall be revealed, dheere dheere)
Amidst all the chaos, Neil was very cautious about anything that might cause harm to the girls sitting next to him. He didn't want anything wrong to happen with any of them. If it was about Swara and Preet, apart from the reason: humanity, he knew it'll hurt Mini, more than ever. And if it was about Mini herself, he needed no reasons now. He cared for her more than he's cared for himself till date, and he had accepted this wholeheartedly.
Preet: Oye ek second, tum dono pe toh kisi ne rang lagaya hi nahi....
She took some colour in her hand. Neil was sitting next to her... She was about to put that on him when...
Neil: Nahi nahi... Not on me!!
Preet: Arrey, par kyun?
Neil: No reasons as such but ...
Mini: Let it be, Preet. Actually, jo boring log hote hain naa, unhe yeh sab karne ke liye kehna hi nahi chahiye. 😏
Neil: Excuse me!
Mini: I've already excused you. And you are boring, it's a fact!!
Neil: Mujhe challenge mat karo tum, samjhi?
Mini (stood up): Jao kiya challenge, ab? 😏
Pee loon, tere neele neele
Nainon se shabnam
Pee loon, tere geele geele
Hothon ki sargam
Pee loon, hai peene ka mausam
Tere sang ishq taari hai
Tere sang ik khumari hai
Tere sang chain bhi mujhko
Tere sang beqarari hai
Tere bin jee nahi lagta
Tere bin jee nahi sakta
Tujhpe hai haare
Maine vaare do jahaan
Qurbaan, meharbaan,
Ke main to qurbaan
Sun le zara, tera qurbaan
