SAFAR

CHAPTER 32

Darshan and his team went back to Mumbai. He was desparate to meet Anjali and talk to her as she was not picking his call. At the airport, he told Hardik to carry his luggage to his apartment, he will come later. So as he did. He then directly went to her home. He knocked the door. With unknown reason, he was feeling nervous. When the door opened, he looked at her nervously but found Ritu there and made a face.
R - Hii hero
D - Hello Billi
R - Tumhara aate hi shuru ho gaya
D - aur nahi toh kya...ab hato raaste se..baahar hi khade rakhne ka iraada hai kya
Then he went inside and sat on the sofa. His eyes were finding Anjali.
D - Anjali kaha hai
R - Baahar
D - mtlb
R - bahar kisi kaam se gayi hai
D - ye Anjali hamesha kisi kaam se baahar jaati hai aur musibat lekar aati hai...tumne usko akele Jane kyu Diya.
R - kon si musibat aur woh koi chhoti bachi nhi hai jo use akele na jaane doon
D - arre
Then he stopped. He remembered what Anjali has told him. She had forbidden him to tell her anything
D - acha woh chhodo. Kab gayi hai woh.
R - kuch ghanto pehle hi...aati hi hogi
D - okk..by the way, coffee do yrr bohot thak gaya hoon. Airport se directly yahi aaya hoon (While stretching himself on Sofa)
R - oo
Ritu went to kitchen to bring his coffee While he heard the sound of door knob clicking. He turned to see and saw Anjali was entering in with doing something in her bag. Seeing her, a sudden smile came on his face and his heartbeat got increased a little bit with unknown reason. As he saw her, he took big steps towards her and before she could know his presence, he immediately hugged her. When he hugged her, she looked up in surprise and started looking at his back who was hugging her. With his perfume smell and his shirt, she recognised that it was noother than Darshan. She too felt relief and smiled and hugged him back. He was just hugging her saying nothing. He was feeling peace, peace of meeting someone close after long time. She then started caressing his back only then he realised he was hugging her from really long and got quickly apart. He started feeling awkward now. He started scratching the back of his neck.
A - Tum yha
Ritu came back with his coffee and saw both standing.
R - Anjali tu aa gayi...aur tum dono khade kyu ho..baitho
A - Nhi main jaa rahi hoon apne room mein
R - ok jaa jakar fresh ho jaa
She went to her room. He took his coffee and started taking sip of it. He understood with her behaviour that she is still angry with him. He chatted with her sometime and told her about his weekend and this weekend plan.
D - How is it
R - Not bad. Even the purpose is right
D - Chalo...ab bas use batana aur manana reh gaya hai
R - Tumhe lgta hai woh maanegi jaane ke liye woh bhi akele tumhare sath aur pure 1 week ke liye
D - kyu nhi maanegi. Dost hu uska aur uske mujhpar trust nhi h kya? Jo tu aise bol rahi hai
R - mujhe kya pata ki use tumpar trust hai ya nhi. Jaakar khud hi puch lo.
D - haa ek min.
He took the cup of coffee with himself and walked to her room. He opened it without her permission and saw her doing something in her wardrobe. He closed the door behind himself and with that, she looked back at him with a blank expression.
D - ye tumhare liye coffee laya tha
Anjali looked at the cup and said - But ye toh Ritu ne tumhare liye bnayi thi
D - but ye tumhare liye hai
She felt no point in arguing with him so she signed him to keep the cup on the side table.
D - par waha toh tumhara laptop hai
A - ugghh
She went near the side table. He too went near it. She removed her laptop from there and kept it in the bed.
A - ab khush
D - Nahi (while placing the cup on the table)
She made a face and turned to go when he held her hand. She looked back.
D - Gussa ho mujhse
She again made a face and turned to go trying to freed her hand.
D - Gym karta hoon...itni aasani se hath nhi chutega
She being annoyed turned back raising her hand which Darshan had held and was trying to freed but Darshan pulled her close to him and left her hand. He grabbed her waist instead and her hands got placed on his chest. She was looking at him with frightening eyes with his sudden action. Her heartbeat got fasten. She removed her hands from his chest and held his hands which were grabbing her waist. When she tried to make her waist free, he pulled her closest to him. Her hands this time got wrapped around his neck. He encircled her waist with his hands softly touching it. She was feeling current going down through her spine. She was frightened but he was smiling.
A - K..k..kya kar rahe ho tum...chhodo mujhe
She was trying to freed her from him. He was pulling her more close.
D - Tum jitna khud ko freed karane ki koshish karogi main utna hi tumhe aur paas khichunga(while pulling her more close)
A - abb..kya baat hai...bolo chup chap
D - haa toh main tumse puch raha tha Ki tum gussa ho mujhse
She said nothing just looked in other direction.
D - oh matlab sachi ki gussa ho.
He left her and made her sit on the bed. He sat on his knees just close to her legs.
She took the cup of coffee and started sipping it looking in other direction. He held his ears and said - Sorry (making cute face)
She didn't reply.
D - are baba sorry na...main bas us din tum se rude hona nhi chahta tha isiliye maine Sid bhai ko bola ki tumhe de de
She then looked at him and said - waah...mtlb ye sahi hai ki ghar tumhara ho aur khtairdari koi aur kare. Haina
D - are woh koi aur thodi hai
A- ok wait...haa main maanti hoon ki woh koi aur nahi hai but still...jab tum mujhe waha lekar Gaye the toh tumhe hi dena tha na...aur rahi rudeness ki baat toh kar lete tum mujhse rudely baat...par aise samne hi nhi aana... that's wrong
D - arre...acha ok baba sorry.
She again looked in other direction.
D - Anjali...sorry
She didn't either look in his direction nor said anything
D - Baba sorry na... please...tumne uss din kaha tha na ki tumhe acha nahi lagta jab main gussa hota hoon toh...same waise hi mujhe bhi acha nahi lagta jab tum gussa hoti toh
She again didn't say anything. He then took her coffee from her. She immediately looked at him and said - arre do
D - nhi
A - do yrr
D - nhi..pehle mere sorry ka reply do
A - pehle mera cup do
D - ye tumhara nhi mera cup hai..ye Ritu ne mere liye banayi thi...maine tumhe apni wali di thi
A - hawww
She folded her hands across his chest and again looked in another direction.
D - offo
He placed the coffee on the table and said - sorry na Angel
She looked at him and said - what was that
D - what
A - Angel
D - haa you are Anjali so Anu jo tumhe sab bulate hai so Anjali se Angel...a unique name. Dono names similar similar hai na.
A - bas bas...makkhan malai mat lagao...I know why are you saying this
D - are baba sachi...I am sorry na
He became sad. Seeing his sad face, she said - Ok fine..nahi hoon main ab gussa
Darshan immediately looked at her and said - sachi
Anjali nodded her head in yes cutely.
He stood up and said - thank you Anjali
He was going to hug her. He hugged her but since she was sitting on the bed while he was standing and hugged her in excitement so with that hug, both fell on the bed. Both were seeing each other or say we're scanning each other's face from so close. Then Anjali looked in another direction and both got up.
D - abb...sorry
She sat straight on the bed and took the Coffee cup and started sipping. He too sat beside her and said - Kitni besharam ho...abhi abhi maine bataya ye meri coffee hai phir bhi piye jaa rahi ho
He snatched the coffee and started sipping. She being annoyed looked in opposite direction to him.
D - offo...ye bacha bhi na...bohot jaldi jaldi gussa hota hai..thik hai ye lo
A - nhi chahiye mujhe. Khud pi lo
D - are le bhi lo
A - maine bola na nhi
D - warna main saari pi jaunga
She immediately looked in his direction and took the cup and said - nooo..mujhe peeni h
He just smiled.
D - You are really a pure child
A - and yo...
D - acha chup...bas ab
She rolled her eyes and said - huh
D - acha suno
A - hmm bolo
D - I am planning a trip to Goa for a week
A - ok Good
D - So tum apna saaman pack kar lena...aaj raat ko humari flight hai. Tab tak main jakar so jaunga. Rest le lunga

D - pehli baat mera koi friend nhi jaa rha. Only we are going means only you and me.

A - main tumhare sath akele nhi jaa rhi
D - are Trust me. Main kuch galat nahi karunga aur nahi hone dunga tumhare sath. I will take care of you there everytime and everywhere. So be tension free
She thought for a while and said - no means no
D - are yrr hadd hai...tumhe mujhe par bharosa nahi hai kya
A - Bharose ki baat nhi h darshan
D - toh phir kaisi baat hai
He got angry with her and said - ok fine as you wish. If you don't trust me, it's alright.
He stood up and started going. But she held his hand.
D - ab kya hai

D - mujhe nahi peeni
A - are piyo...maine kya kha tha food share karne se pyaar badhta hai
D - itne der se toh dono ek hi cup se pi rhe..ghanta kuch ho rha hai. Koi pyaar wyaar nhi badhta. Upar se jhagde badhte hai
A - arre..ok fine I am coming
D - ok (and again looked in front to go but then he realised what she said)
A sudden smile came on his face and turned back and said - really
She nooded her head in yes smiling. He was coming forward to hug her but she stopped him. He felt awkward. She stood up and said - ab Karo hug warna phir se bed pe gira doge
He laughed softly and hugged her.
D - alright then. Be ready at 11:30. I will come to pick you then we will be off at 1 AM.
A - okk..jao tum bhi jakar ache se rest jar lo. Ek week ke baad aaye ho
D - haa haa jaa rha hoon..bbye
A - Bye. Tc
He then went to his home. At night, Darshan came to pick her up and both went to airport. Their flight took off and from here, their journey started now for Goa.
