Our Love [✓]

| 04

Monami's sleep broke as she heard shrieks and shouts from outside their room. She got up and found Karan still sleeping. Medicines are working well, she thought and chuckled at Karan's canny and quick-witted but purely childish logic of not eating medicines. The screams came again. Her mind suddenly got scared but then , she slowly registered the screams . Something strangely familiar about the sound , she thought. And in the middle of her thinking , she heard Faizi's , Sanju's and whose voice....?

"It is Siddddd" , she said. "Who else could it be?"

She put her hands on Karan's back and tried to wake him up. "Karan...Karan wake up."

Karan opened his eyes drowsily but again hugged Monami and said, "So jao Monu. Kya hua hai ?"

"Arre Sidd aaya hai yaha par. Suno , aavaz aa rahi hai uski . Can you hear it?" said Monami

Obviously he could. As Karan always said , Sid's personality was such that his presence could be felt by people miles away from his vicinity.( p.s : this guy just has to overdo it , huh?)

"Arre kaan baj rahe hai tumhare. Koi nahi hai yaha pe . Chalo so jao", said Karan and turned on the other side still holding Monami's hand. But who was he fooling? A person who could read him like an open book. A person who knows him better than he himself does. 

" Jao chodo , tum yaha sote raho. Mein hi jaati hu", said Monami and removed her hand from his grip only for it to be held by Karan again.

"Ruko mein bhi aata hu.  Yahi ruko mujhe fresh to hone dogi na ? Warna woh nayalak firse bolega , arre Karann broooo, 'mujhse milne ke liye kam se kam muh dhoke toh aaya karo' aur uski nautanki chalu ho jaayegi " , grumbled Karan.

 " Thike jao . Yahi hu tumhare saath hi milungi usse. Bas. Happy ? Now shoot off to the bathroom , before I shoot you Special Agent" , threatened Monami. 

"Okay Mam", said Karan and went to the bathroom.

Monami sat on the window sill thinking about Karan and Sid. Though Sid had met them later he was still her closest friend . How these too equally crazy men played such major roles in her life. After her father , these two were the closest to her heart . (p.s: i have shown her father as a good man. i mean , a father cannot be that bad , can he?) They both were polar opposites. Like north and south poles of a magnet . They stuck together just because of one common factor . The precious lady , that both of them loved from their hearts , though perhaps Sid's 'lady' may have been changed now . She still used to smile remembering the fights that both of them had whenever they wanted to drop their Monu to her college.   She used to chide them always for their behaviour , but her heart always melted seeing their adoration for her. She reciprocated it equally to both of them.  She never took that for granted , it would be a sin. 

 "Sid ", she thought "is my inspiration on how to live a jolly life . However carefree he is of nature , I could trust him with my  life. "

"And Karan ", her thoughts trailed off  " he is the best thing happened to me. The way he sleeps like a kid with me , is something  very magical. His comfortability with me still makes me feel very special . Huh....the idiot . I love him so much"  

And Karan opened the washroom door. "Speak of the devil", she smiled .

Karan came near her and stood in front of her. "Ab tumhari baat mani hai toh mera gift?"

"Hmm..." she pretended to think . "So the baby here wants a gift ?"

He nodded hard. She smiled "okkay. here goes"

She hugged him tightly and kissed his forehead and he closed his eyes ,"peace" he thought . "Soon to be destroyed by that idiot" he cursed him mentally.
