Kahi Der Na Ho Jaye....

2.Ignorance

The next morning, the melodious tunes of music filled the air, signaling the start of a new day. Abhishek, hoping to initiate a fresh beginning, turned to wish Jiya a good morning with a bright smile. However, his cheerful expression faltered as he realized her side of the bed was empty.

Feeling a pang of guilt for his previous night's behavior, Abhi searched for Jiya and found her in the kitchen, preparing coffee. The weight of his actions weighed heavily on him.

Elvish, noticing Abhi's distress, placed a comforting hand on his shoulder, questioning the source of his morning turmoil. The night's conversation and Jiya's silent treatment had left Abhi restless.

"Jiya subah se ignore kar rahi hai," he confessed, his frustration evident. Sitting beside Manisha, Abhi helplessly looked at Elvish.

Manisha, ever the humorist, teased, "Naagin dank maar rahi hai," earning laughter from Ashika and Manisha. Elvish, irritated by Manisha's antics, urged her to stop, sensing that the situation had escalated enough.

Jiya sat silently on the sofa, wearing a weak smile as Bebika approached her with concern.

"Kya hua, Jiya? Aaj itni shant kyu hai tu?" Bebika inquired, gently cupping Jiya's face.

"Falaq ki yaad arahi hai. Ek hi to friend thi meri, yaha wo bhi chali gayi," Jiya replied, her voice tinged with sadness, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Main hu na, mana kabhi-kabhi bheed jati hoon tuzse, par dhoka nahi dunga, I promise," Bebika assured, looking into Jiya's eyes with intensity. Jiya, moved by her friend's words, couldn't hold back her tears, and she hugged Bebika tightly.

"Are meri jaan, aise rote nahi hai. Bahar jaake mil lena Falaq se," Pooja said comfortingly, joining the embrace.

As Elvish and others arrived, witnessing the heartfelt moment, they understood the depth of the bond shared between Jiya and Bebika.

"Bas ab rona nahi, thik hai na?" Bebika said, nodding while wiping Jiya's tears. As her words reached Abhishek's ears, he immediately knelt in front of Jiya.

"Kya hua, Jiya? Tum ro kyun rahi ho? Kya baat hai, Bebika, tune fir se kuch bol diya kya isse?" he asked in a panicked tone.

"Zara saas le le, Bhai," Elvish advised as he joined them.

"Kya hua, ro kyun rahe ho aap?" Abhishek asked with genuine concern.

"Ho gayi naagin ki nautanki chalu," Manisha whispered, the words not escaping Abhishek's notice. He felt a surge of anger but chose to stay silent.

"Mene kuch nahi kiya, Falaq ki yaad aa rahi hai ise. Uski ek lauti friend chali gayi, aur tu na door reh in sab baaton se. Aur mat rula use," Bebika's words triggered him. The phrase "ek lauti friend" hurt him deeply, but he chose to remain silent, feeling a heavy weight of guilt.

"Sab yaha hain, aur tu to strong hai, Jiya," Bebika reassured, patting her back.

"Jiya, aapke liye ek surprise hai," Big Boss announced, leaving everyone shocked.

"Kya? Kya hai yeh surprise, Big Boss?" Jiya questioned, but Big Boss remained silent.

"Big Boss yaar, this is not fair! Curiosity kills the cat," Jiya whined, eliciting chuckles from everyone except Manisha and her puppet.

"Itni cute kyun hai tu," Avi teased as he pulled her cheeks, earning an irritated look from Abhishek.

Elvish noticed everything and intervened, "Galat soch liya, Bhai. Ladki ke baare me sahi hai ladki."

Abhishek, still irritated, responded, "Mujhe bhi yahi lag raha hai, par Mahesh dekh raha hai sab kuch."

"Tu dekh, usne tujhe bola hai door rehne ko. Mujhe na to tu apna dekh liyo, theek hai?" Elvish sat on the sofa.

"Ye to galat baat hai, na Bhai. Main akela kyun hoon?" Abhishek questioned.

"Na na, akela kahan hai. Teri Manisha to hai tere saath," Elvish smirked.

"Manisha to meri behen hai," Abhishek clarified.

"To Jiya se konsa ishq ladwa raha tha tu? Woh bhi to behen hai teri," Elvish teased, aiming to trigger him.

"Haan woh... Woh bhi behen hai," Abhishek stumbled over his words.

Before Abhishek could change the topic, Manisha came in between, "Kya soch raha hai?" she asked, clinging to him.

"Manisha yaar, thoda distance rakha kar. Aise mat kya kar. Please irritate hota hai," Abhishek expressed his irritation.

"Ka bola be, irritate hota hai. Humse ek lagayenge na, saara irritation nikal jayega," Manisha said in her usual tone, affecting Abhishek despite his attempts to ignore her.

............

Will he able to stand her cold shoulders??
Will Manisha succeed to manipulate him?
Jiya feel for him?
