Chapter 9

The driver glanced at his phone to double check the address that Karishma had given him.

Karishma peeked through the side window. Yes, this place looks familiar to her. Last time when she came here, this place looked different or she didn't noticed the details.

It was a huge enclave with swimming pool and big lawn. Various types of flowers like sunflower, rose, marigold and others which she assumed foreign. Huge trees and lights lined on the boundary. There were BMW, Audi and other expensive car parked in the parking lot.

WOW! four of them were watching it with mouth open. It not that bad if Karishma got to live a house and neighbourhood like this. Haseena wasn't kidding when she talked about the deadly views.

Karishma sighed and climbed out of her car. Billu let out a low whistle watching the damn Audi. "Kya mast gadi hain.. shayad mujhe vi aisa koi apna girlfriend bana leta."
"Billa!" Karishma came behind him and slapped the back of his head. He motioned to zip his mouth and moved away safe distance from Karishma's hand.

"Bhaiya ap zara idhar rukiye. Di ap zara Haseena di ko phone lagayiye." Cheeta asked.
Karishma thought for a second and decided not to disturb Haseena as she already know her room no. "Unhe pareshan karne ki zarurat nehi. mujhe pata hain chalo." She asked everyone to follow her.

Each of them carried a box and went towards elevator. A hiss sound of water warned Karishma but before she moved away with the heavy box, the water sprinkler on the lawn drenched her front, soaking the cardboard also.
She stood there froze for a moment, but before the second spray hit her, she ran from there quickly. The spray also drenched Billu.

"Di ap dekh k chal nehi rahe the kya? ha ha.. aur ye Billa to bhiga Billa ban gaya." Cheeta and Santu laughed at them loudly. "Sukar karo ki mere haathon mein box hain warna do daat thod dete, koi ladki shaadi nehi karti tumse." Karishma threatened him. The water dripped on the elevator floor and her cardboard crumbled a little.

The ping sound of elevator reminded them that they reached their destination. Cheeta pressed the box on the wall and with another trembling finger he reached out to rang the bell.

The door swung open. Haseena was standing on the door wearing a loose tees. Haseena looked at Karishma who is drenched fully due to water. Her locks were plastered on her face, looking like some drowned cat. Haseena laughed looking at her," Ha ha ha.. apki aisi bhigi billi jaisi halat kisne ki?"
"Humein pehle andar ane do." Karishma chidded.
"Ha ha ayiye-ha ha.."

When Karishma entering the house, she slipped on the tiles. She closed her eyes in fear knowing that the crash landing would surely broke two of her teeth or bones.
with dhum tananana.. background music Karishma falling slowly in the ground. Haseena came forward to help her but she also slipped. Fortune was not in Haseena's favour, so she crashed on the floor with Karishma over her. The Kurti's and tees of that box clumsed all around them. WHAT A WELCOME!

Karishma's both hand on Haseena's shoulder while her face nuzzled her neck. Karishma pulled her head to check on Haseena, whose eyes were closed. Cold air running slowly (it's her Samsung AC's air) on her face, the romantic music started playing on her head.
One the other hand, sad bone braking music playing on Hassena's mind. "Ah.. Karishma zara hatiye!"
Karishma regained her sense as she moved away from Haseena. The contact of their bodies made Haseena's shirt drenched too. "Aauuu.. mera peeth! Ap har bar mere peeth par hi hamla kiu karti hain?"
"Kya hua tab to bohot has rahe the? ise kehte hain Instant Karma."

Haseena shrugged her shoulder. Santu cleared her throat, "Karu di ap logo ka pyaar hogaya ho to hum andar aaye. ye box na bohot bhari hai." without waiting for any response Santu entered first. Her wet sneakers squelched over the moon white tiles. This is called 'leaving the foot marks.'

Haseena hold her breath, froze on her spot when her guests entering sorry destroying her moment-ago cleaned floor. Haseena could hear the crack sound of her broking heart. Ow no!

Every of them put their boxes down, and toed off their sneakers next to the box. But what the use when her floor is already dirty!

Hassena stand straight. She pulled her now-damped tee away from her skin using her two fingers. "Ap bhig kaise gaye?"
Karishma thought to tease her as nervous Haseena is already her favourite, "Tum jab mere itne kareeb rahoge to main aise bhig hi jaungi na baby?" She ran her finger along Haseena's arm seductively.
Billu, Cheeta, Santu tried to look anywhere but them.

Haseena smiled nervously and narrowed her eyes at Karishma. She moved far away from her. 'Pata nehi inke dimag mein kya chal raha hain. kaisi ajeeb ajeeb harkatein karti rehti hain.' Haseena mumbled to herself.

Karishma smirked satisfyingly seeing her condition and broke out laughing, "Hum to mazak kar rahe the.. tum apni halat to dekho." she teased her, "aise kaise karogi tum humari girlfriend ban ne ki acting?"

Haseena bit her lip, cursing her for that lame joke, 'apko to hum chodenge nehi.' She gave her a tight lipped fake smile. Cheeta cleared her throat to clear the awkward tension between them. Haseena's room looked so tidy like apple showroom. A few moments ago before their arrival the only thing lied there was a book of Ruskin Bond. But now Karishma's Kurti's and tees were also there to accompany it.

"Ap log zara rukiye hum ap ke liye coffee laatein hain." But as Haseena went towards kitchen her toes tripped over Karishma's shirt causing her to fall on her butt. "Aaaa.. jor ki lagi.. Aj ka din to bohot dard bhara hain."
Karishma started laughing, her stomach hurts due to excess laugh. Hassena glared at her, she wanted to kick Karishma out of the window.

'Pehle jab yeha ayi thi tab paair mein dard tha isiliye jyada kuch nehi Kiya. Par ab ye apna asli roop dikha rahi hain. Ya khuda mere room ki kya halat kardi. Karishma bhuliye maat bhagwan upar hain, wo sab dekh raha hain.' Haseena cursed her in thought.
"Bhagwan ka to pata nehi, par abhi tum humein dekh rahi ho." Karishma somehow read her thought, but How the somehow?
"Chalo ab tum ye saare cheezen saaf karo, main kapde badal ke ayi." Karishma winked at Haseena and grabbed one of her Pajama, tees before ducking into her bedroom.

Haseena wished that she wouldn't embarrass her infront of the publications. She took a deep breath, "Rukiye Karishma hum towel laaye." Haseena also entered the same room.
