KARAN, MONAMI AUR WO:
Note- Karan and Monami have been together for about a month.
Monami smiled at Aneesh as she passed him, setting her tray down on the table where Karan was sitting alone. She sat down opposite him, and the two fell into idle talks, small smiles on their faces as they enjoyed each other's presence.
Aneesh glared at Karan, setting his own tray down harshly on the table. He ate quietly, most of his attention on the couple. Suman ji narrowed her eyes as she looked at the doctor.
"Suman ji", Sid said. "Aap Aneesh bro ko aise kyun dekh rahi hain?"
"Yeh Karan Sir ji aur Monami ko aise kyun dekh raha hai? Suman ji ko kuch gadhbadh lag rahi hai."
"Aap #overthink kar rahi hain", Chitra dismissed.
Koel glanced at Aneesh. It was odd to see the normally cheerful and smiling doctor glare at the couple, but she shook her head, dismissing it as a result of his possibly bad mood.
"Monami", Aneesh said, as she kept her tray on the counter. "Mujhe tumse kuch baat karni hai. Akele mein."
She frowned a little. "Uh, okay. Abhi meri class hai, Aneesh. Free hote hi main aati hoon tumhaare paas."
He rolled his eyes. "Monami, yeh class sach mein important hai kya? Mujhe baat karni hai."
"Of course important hai", she said. "Main baad mein milti hoon, na, tumse. Jo kehna hai, tab keh dena."
He sighed in frustration, storming out of the mess, and Monami stared after him in concern, before shaking her head.
The mess slowly empties as the cadets trickled down, moving to the class.
"Monami", Karan said. "Chalo."
"Haan", she said, following him out of the mess. "Yeh... Yeh Aneesh ko kya hua hai?"
"Mujhe kaise pata hoga? Tumhaara friend hai. Tum jaano, wo jaane", he said, scowling a little.
Monami looked up at him, tilting her head. "Tumhe Aneesh se problem kya hai? Jab se wo aaya hai, tab se tum uske saath itna ajeeb sa behave karte ho. Uss din bhi restaurant mein..."
"Tumhe abhi bhi lagta hai ki wo sahi tha, aur main nahi?" He asked, pausing outside the classroom.
She sighed. "Mujhe... mujhe nahi pata", she said. "Par Aneesh kyun karega yeh sab? Ho sakta hai tumhe koi misunderstanding ho gayi."
He shook his head, sighing. "Monami, tumhaari class ka time ho raha hai."
Monami clutched his arm, before he could leave. "Karan... let's just forget about this. Main tumse ladna nahi chahti."
He nodded, before tilting his head to the class. "Abhi jao. Class hai."

"Monami, maine tumse kaha tha ki mujhe baat karni hai", Aneesh said, standing at the head of the table.
She smacked her forehead lightly. "Mere dimaag se slip ho gaya, Aneesh. I am so sorry. Abhi bol do."
"Akele mein", he reminded, and she nodded, standing up and following him to a corner.
The mess was bustling with activity, most of the cadets and trainers there. Karan turned his head, staring at the two as they talked.
"Karan Bhai ji, Monami Madam sundar hai par iska yeh matlab nahi ki aap kabhi unse nazre hi naa hataaye", Bala teased, making the other four cadets on the table laugh.
