Chapter 12

Haseena sat comfortably at the couch while opening her laptop. Karishma was checking her nails wearing 'bored' expression. ''maine socha vi nhi tha ki mere first date pe mera partner mere samne laptop leke mera interview lega." Karishma mocked her while looking at her with corner of her eyes.
Haseena fixed her glasses, "par main to fake girlfriend hu na."

Karishma shrugged, "suno, tum agar ye laptop leke mere samne therapist ban ne ki acting karoge, to mujhe nehi karni tumse baat."
"Mujhe therapist ki acting karne ki kya jarurat hai, main to pehle se hi therapist hu."
"Ha, par tumhare client k samne, abhi ye laptop rakhke ek normal insaan jaisa baat karna hain to karo, warna main sone jati hu." Karishma stands up from the sofa, when Haseena held her hand, but instantly left it when she got a intense glare from Karishma.
"Wo.. acha baithiye, hum rakhte hain laptop."
Karishma looked at her for a brief second, before nodding her head.

"to batayiye, apka favourite colour konsa hain?"
"black.. tumhara?"
"White." The reason white is her favourite colour was her dog 'Scooby', who was pure white with fluffy and smooth fur. She smiled a little remembering him.
"ka hua?"
"ka hua.. matlab kya 'ka hua'?
"nehi, tum muskura kiu rahe the?"
"kuch nehi, chahiye ab batayiye ap ka favourite khana?"
"mera favourite to bohot sara hain, amma k haat ka bana rajma chawal, aloo parathe, paneer pizza, chicken burger, fried rice, hakka noddles, butterscotch icecream, oh.. ha chocolate ice cream, bi-"
"bas bas, ye apka favourite khana hain ya shadi ka menu?" Haseena raised her eyebrow at her. Speaking of this foods, made her stomach growl. It's really really unfair to talk about delicious food infront of a dieting person. Asking about her favourite food was bad idea.

"Um, jab ap chote the to kya ban na chahte thee?"
"Haddio 🦴 ka doctor."
"kiu?"
"wo bachpan mein kuch ladke school mein mere dost aur mujhe bohot ched te thee, to maine ekdin unn dono ko dho dala. 2-3 haddi tut gaye thee unke," Karishma paused for a second before starting again, "1 hafte k liye suspend ho gayi thi main!! Fir maine socha mujhe haddio ki doctor ban na chahiye."
Hassena looked at her with open mouth, luckily her home was fully pest controlled so no fly entered her mouth.
"ka?"
"pata hain apka idea acch tha, pehle kisiko mar ke uski haddi thodke fir uski haddi jhod k ussi se paise lete."

Karishma raised her eyebrow. Was that insult or appreciation!
Person like Haseena is too harmless to insult someone, so this must be appreciation.
"tum? tum bachpan mein aisa koi kaand karte the?"
"matlab mar peeth? nehi!"
Karishma smirked at her, "tum Barbie aur main Oppenheimer, matlab hum chahe vi to aur different ho hi nehi sakte."
Haseena imagined herself as Barbie, no she isn't like that. "ap aisa kiu keh rahe hain! main to Barbie se khel ta vi nehi tha. par ek bar mujhe yaad hain, Holi ka din tha, main dadi aur ammi se bina puche ghar se nikal gayi Holi khelne k liye. tab 9.30 vi nehi baje thee. 10.00 bajte bajte sab milke mujhe rang laga, laga k, mujhe rang mein vigo vigo k mera kya halat kar di thi. main jab ghar aake apne gate k samne khadi ho gayi tab meri ammi meri dadi se keh rahi thi ki 'dekhiye, ye kiska baccha hain? iski ammi iska bilkul dhayan nehi rakhti, subha subha bacche ko bhej diya Holi khelne.' tab maine jab bola 'ammi', to unko pata chal gaya ki wo baccha unka apna baccha hain..." Haseena pause for moment to take breath, "bohot maar padi thi uss din!"

Karishma laughed hardly, at her story. Haseena tucked her locks behind her ear, When a scar near her elbow caught Karishma's eye. "Ye tumhare haat mein ye daag kaise aya, tumne to kaha tha-" said Karishma pointing towards her scar. Haseena looked at her elbow.

"ohh, ye wala.. jyada kuch nehi.. par uss din mujhe jindagi ka sabse khubsurat inaam mila tha." she said looking at her scar.
"matlab?"
"ap sun na chahti hain?" Karishma nodded yes.

Flashback

Little Haseena playing with her stuff dog infront of her gate.

Suddenly, she heard a sound beside her gate. She stopped what she doing and looked at the source of sound. She grabbed her stuff dog to check what's going on.
There was a little puppy frightened by all of the dogs who were circling and growling beside him. He was pure white colour puppy, curled up in fear. He had several cuts in his hand and shoulder. One dog took position to jump over him but before Haseena threw a stone towards him. "Jaa...o.. yaha.. see..ee" she said afraidly. All dogs were backed away a little when Haseena ran towards the dog and hugged him in between her arms. Her stuff toy fall there, at the moment. The dogs came forward again and barked at Her. She decided to run with him, but she tripped over a stone and fell on the ground. But she held the puppy securely that her elbow hit the hard rock. "ahhh.. dadi.." She sobbed holding the pup who is looking very weak.
The dogs were coming toward them, so she collected her all strength to get up and run. She looked for the last time at her stuff toy named 'Scooby' who was lied there. One of the dog took it in his mouth and tear up it's skin. The cottons broke free. Haseena's cried hard looking at her head stuff dog, but she couldn't do anything.

She looked at the pup, it's looking exactly like her stuff toy. He snuggled more into her, licking her hand. Haseena wiped her tears, before hugging her. "Scooby" she named her, Scooby.
"Ale tujhe to chot laagi hain, mujhe vi laagi hain, chal dadi se bandaid karwate hain."

Flashback ends

"bas aise hi mujhe nakli Scooby k badle asli Scooby mil gaya tha." Haseena smiled.
"bohot pyaara nam hain.." Karishma returned her smile. Barbie was not really suitable name for her. This robotic 'love guru' do have a heart.

"Hmmm.., chaliye ab agee ki planning karte hain, matlab hum mile kaise?
love at first sight kaisa rahega?" suggested Haseena.
"Um hum, wo love at first sight ka zamana gaya, wo concept kaafi purana ho gaya hain. Kuch, matlab developing socho!"
"to fir?!"
"Kaise, kaise tum love guru bane? tumhe mujhse suggestion chahiye? ek chammach paani mein dub maro."
"Suniye, mere pas Psychology ka 3 degree hain aur PH.D-" Karishma rolled her eyes, "tumhe planning karna hain na?" Haseena nodded, "to uspe dhyan do."

Both fell silent. 2min later Haseena broke the silence first, "mere pas ek idea hain. Hum batayenge ki hum dono ka accident hua tha, aur ap haddi ke doctor hain to apne mujhe apne ghar lekar gayi thi. aise hum log mile." Karishma thought, that was exactly different from their actual meet, except Haseena wasn't 'Haddi ka Doctor.'

Karishma nodded in no. "Nehi, ab mera idea suno. Hum ek park mein mile. Tum ek akeli si jaan baithe thee park mein, jab maine tumhe company dene k liye aya.. aur fir hum logo ki baat suru hui, kaisa laga idea?" Karishma looked questionly towards Haseena.
"ha thik hi hain, par ap akeli si jaan baithi thi park mein aur main apse baat karne ayi thi." Haseena suggested.
"nehi tum baithe thee."
"nehi ap"
"Thik hai meri baat nehi manoge to mujhe nehi khelna." Karishma staring to go when Haseena spoke in hurry, "accha hum, hum baithe thee."

Karishma sat again with satisfying smirk. She has so much power over Haseena.
"To ap ne mujhe propose kiya, ok?"
"nehi, baat main karne ayi thi, to propose tum karoge."
"Lekin main.." And that one look of Karishma, "Ok."
"Done!"
