With You

Forced meeting

Fateh was crying seeing that ring in his hands .

(Introducing Rajat Verma as Fateh's brother)
Rajat knocked on the door ,no answer.He then realised it was not even locked.
He saw Fateh lying on the floor . He looked so miserable with alcohol and cigarettes all around .
He couldn't see his fitness freak health conscious brother like this .
But how couldn't leave him without confronting for how behaved with his girlfriend today .
He woke him up.
RAJAT : Bhai yaar utho jaldi .Kya haal kar rakha hai aapne ??
FATEH: Rajat tum yahaan ?? Mein tho lock karke aaya tha ..
RAJAT: Oh sab choda mere saath aana ab
He lifted Fateh and helped him to enter the bathroom.
RAJAT: Bhai aap pehle shower Lelo . You look extremely drunk and I'll get you lemonade now .

Fateh took a shower and came out . He gained some sense .
FATEH: What happened? What do you what to talk about?
RAJAT: Really Bhai ? You are asking me now ? Aaj aapne Elahi se aise kyun baat ki ?
FATEH: I knew it ! So she complained to you . The day is not too far that she brings distance between us .
RAJAT: Bhai you can't blame her for everything yaar . You are guilty. You feel sad . But you can't just take it on her .
FATEH: I didn't blame her today. I don't even speak to her nowadays. But she came to my room and pissed me off

RAJAT: I know she did some mistakes in the past which ruined your relationship. But now she is genuinely concerned for you . Even yesterday she told me how you were continuously smoking in between shoots .
FATEH: Why is she acting now ? Doesn't she know why I am like this ?
RAJAT: Of course She knows Bhai .
But it's high time you start seeing how you ruined your life all by yourself rather than blaming her or dad .
FATEH: Don't even take that man's name .
He pushed the lamp beside him .

RAJAT: Bhai! Please listen to me . I think you need to consult a psychiatrist ASAP.
You need some therapy where you let yours emotions out.
FATEH: I am not a mad person . I am just sad and bottled with guilt .
Had I not listened to him that day .
I wouldn't have ruined her life . I seperated her from everything she loved .

April, 2019 .
RAJESH: Fateh... Fatehhhhh!! Where the hell are you .
RAJAT : Papa kya hua ? AAP kyun chilla rahe ho
RAJESH: What the hell is this ?? His coactor Natasha gave an interview against him and it's published on Indian Times .
RAJAT: What's there in that .Show me .
He read the headline " The playboy of the town " Wth....
RAJESH: Fateh ko pehle bulao

Rajat called Fateh and asked to come ASAP .
Gurpreet came out from her room
GURPREET: What happened why are you shouting ?
RAJESH: Look what your baby boy has done .
Gurpreet was shocked reading it too .

Fateh entered the scene .
RAJESH went to him and caught his collar
RAJESH: Besharam!!! Kitna besharam ho tum . Kitni baar bola Maine . Heroines ko date karna bandh Karo band karo . Sunte kahaan ho
FATEH: Dad what happened.
Rajesh took the newspaper and threw it on his face

He read it
FATEH: Dad ye Natasha aise hi hai . Iski baaton ko kyu serious le rahe ho
RAJESH: See the headlines idiot!!! Playboy really?? Son of the owner of VK hospitals  is a Playboy who dates girls for fun .Mere hospital aur mere dhajiyaan udaarahe hai tumhare wajah se ..
FATEH: Dad this is not new na .. Every time we see the news against me .

RAJESH: Yeah it's not first time at all. This is the 4th time as she is your 4th coactor whom you dated .
FATEH: Dad come on it's not even a proper relationship. They all are doing this for clout.
RAJESH: When will you even stop your casual dating with all your coactors?? Are u shameless?? Like you can't stick to one girl and will keep on changing them like clothes when the show ends ?

FATEH: Dad I swear , I have never been in a physical relationship with anyone. I have not used anyone .
I was just being honest with them that I can't give them the commitment. You know how I hate marriage.
But they had unreal expectations from me .

RAJESH: Next one on your list is Elahi Dosanjh right ?
FATEH: Dad she is just a friend. I swear! Media kuch bhi bakwas karte hai . It's true that I dated my previous coactors but not this girl .
She is too young.

RAJESH: Stop giving justifications Fateh .This is all bullshit. Day by day you are just ruining my name and getting this playboy image .
Enough is enough. Now you will do what I say .We need to erase this playboy image of yours .

FATEH: Don't tell me to marry someone.
RAJESH: You will exactly do that only . I will send you the address you need to meet her tomorrow.
FATEH : Seriously?? You are giving me the relationship advice? After what you did..
Gurpreet comes in between
GURPREET: Fateh kaise baatein kar rahe ho ? Papa bol rahe haina jao Milo usse

FATEH ( internal thinking) I am doing this drama only for your sake ma.. Other wise I won't even look at him after what he did .
FATEH: Dad ! Please listen to me once .
Forget about my life . What about her life . It will be ruined. I can never give her love . She will be trapped in this.
RAJESH: You don't worry about it . Just meet her .
Rajesh thinks in his mind : I will clear his image by crook or hook and gain my reputation back .
I just hope their meeting goes well tomorrow.

On the other side .
TEJO: Mummy what is this yaar . Why are you forcing marriage on me now . After all that has happened with me . Don't you think marriage is the last thing I want rn
SHRUTI: Arey I am sure this one won't be like them .Go meet him .
HITESH: Beta he is not a nobody. If Rajesh sir has selected a groom for you , he will be the best one.
He sees you as his own daughter so you can trust him with full heart.

TEJO: Papa wo sab theek but atleast naam tho bata dho
HITESH: Even I don't know his name . Rajesh sir told me that's a surprise
Tejo rolled her eyes and straight away went to bed .

She was nervous. She couldn't sleep .
It's not that she is meeting a boy for the first time .
She has been rejected by so many grooms as they felt she couldn't fit in their royal standards and everytime she cried on Agastya's shoulders .
But the last nail on the coffin was when  her engagement got called off by the groom's family.
And she took a break from relationships and everything.
She quickly called agastya.
AGASTYA: Haan tejo bolo
TEJO: Agastya I am meeting another groom tomorrow.
Silence from the other end ...
TEJO: Agastya!! Sun rahe ho ?
AGASTYA: Haan haan Tejo . But achanak se how you are meeting? You stopped meeting anyone since last year na
TEJO: Yeah but my family is forcing me so much  .
I mean how many times will I be rejected for just being a simple girl .They don't even understand how it feels to be rejected on face.
The boys neither find me interesting or my job .
Am I that boring??
AGASTYA: Never doubt yourself Tejo .
Don't underestimate yourself for those losers .
If given a chance I will marry you at this moment itself and I will feel the luckiest guy on the planet.Trust me.
Tejo laughed aloud .
TEJO: You instantly brighten my mind . I am so lucky to have u as my best friend. Now give me a advice. What should I do ?
AGASTYA: Just look into his eyes nothing else. If you see a sincerity in his eyes for you . Just go for it .
TEJO: Right ! I'll call you tomorrow.GN

AGASTYA felt really bad . He feels like it everytime she meets someone.
He wants to express his feelings but is fearful of her response.
What will she even think of me ? Will she think I took advantage of her ?
Will she feel safely as she feels now ? Will she share her thoughts?
He just hoped that he gets some more time to express his true feelings for her .

On the other side, Tejo couldn't sleep.
Should I give a try to this one ? What if he hurts me ?
She just hoped tomorrow goes well for her ...
