MaAn- The Night that followed !!

52. Anuj introduces Anupamaa

He escorted her to a couple.

- Hiii Anujjj!!!  Tere hi paas aa re the bas... Par tu Anupamaa ke saath busy tha....
The man almost Anuj's age hugged him.
- Areyy kya yaar... Tu ni sudhrega... Kaisa haii!!!

- Main ekdum badhiyaaa.... Hii Anupamaa...
He moved forward to hug her.

She took a step back all startled.

- Jai... Jai shree...krishna...

She instantly looked at Anuj as to know his reaction. She wasn't unsure of having stepped back, but today she was introduced as his fiance and her actions would bear a direct impact of him on his circle. He looked at her and smiled.

- Jai Shree Krishna... Ye ekdum nahi badli na... Tumne pehchaana nahi mujhe Anupamaa...??

- Vo... Surii... Ni...

- Anu ye humare saath college me hi tha... Ankit aur ye iski wife... Preeti... Ye bhi college me thi...

- Hiii Anupama... Mujhse to gale mil sakti ho na ??

Anupama smiled and hugged her.

- Aur Anuj tu bhi na ekdum ni badla... I wish hum dono reunion me aa paate...

She said as she hugged Anuj.

- Well koi baat nhiii yahan aa gayi... Ye kya kisi reunion se kam lag ra hai tumhe?

- Bilkul bhi ni.... Pata hai Anupamaa... Hum logon ka college me group tha aur Anuj ne hi meri aur Ankit ki lovestory set karvaayi thi...

- Inhone!!??
She asked inquisitively.

- Aur kya... Sabki love stories ka anchor tha ye... Guiding angel... Kisi ko koi advice chahiye hoti thi help chahiye hoti thi... To ye... Sabse aagey...

- Areyy aisa bhi kuch ni...

- Chal chal ab bhaav mat khaa...

- Mujhe nhi pata tha ki ye colege me... Apni chhor ke sabki love story poori kar re the...

- TO!!! Hum logon ne kitna kaha tha isse bol aa Anupamaa ko.... Bol de... Par iski himmat hi ni hoti thi... Aur aaj... 26 saal baad... Finally bol hi diya... Sabke saamne... Jaise college ke auditorium me bolna chaahta tha...

- Oditorium me...?

- Aur kya... Event host to generally yahi hota tha... Itne mauke the par... Phir kabhi ye soch ke ruk jaata ki tumhe kharaab lagega kabhi sharam se bol ni paata...

Anupama looked at him admiringly.

They had a good talk.

- Chalo tum log party enjoy karo... Tab tak Anupamaa ko aur logon se milvaata hoon main... Aur khabardaar jo aur koi pole kholi hai to merii...

- Haan haan... Sochenge... Tu jaa...

They left.

- Kitne acche the... Main to college se kisi ko jaanti hi ni thi aisa lag ra... Par ye log sab acche the...

- Haan... Pata hai Anupamaa... Maine koshish ki bhi thi... Tumhe apne group ka hissa banaane ki... Par ladko ko dekh ke to tum aise bhaagti thi jaise bhooth dekh liya ho...

- Acchaaa aapne kab mujhse aakar ye bola tha...?

- Directly mai aata to tum maanti thodi na... To group ki ladkiyon ko bhejta tha... Tumse poochne par kabhi kuch kabhi kuch... Bahaana bana ke nikal jaati thi tum...

- Suriiii... Kaas mujhe tab pata hota ki meri kismat me aap likhe hai...

- Ab to pata hai na!!?? Chalo aur logon se milte hai... Arey wait... Ek aur baat... Listen if you are not comfortable with hugs and all to it's fine Anupamaa... Sirf mere friends hai to uske liye tumhe khud ko kisi ko hug karne ke liye force karne ki jaroort nahi... Agar comfortable ho to karo ni ho to mat karo... It's upto you...
