The next morning, Shivani open her eyes lazily. Then she remembered yesterday's incident, a beautiful smile appeared on her face.

Aise hi khadoos ka khitab de rakha hai use, itni pyari to hai. Kitne pyar se mujhe gale lagaya tha aur samjhaya tha. Par agar woh phir se mujh se rude behave karne lagi to (our overthinking brain you know) nahi yaar kal to itni shant lag rahi thi aise hi thodi.... Par uske mood swings bhayankar level ke hote hain, ek pal mein shant aur agle hi pal mein jwalamukhi ban jati hai. Dekhte hain.

She freshened up and went to hall. KS was in kitchen.

"Tum uth gayi, betho, khana bas taiyar hai." KS smile.

Isne meri taraf dekh kar smile ki? Aur mujhe itna bhav bhi de rahi hai? Nahi yeh sach nahi hai main pakka koi sapna dekh rahi hu. (She pinched herself) aahhh yeh sab sach hai?

"Kya hua?" KS asked confusingly.

"Kuch nahi." Saying this she sit on dinning table. KS came with breakfast.

"Shivani pahle hume tumse thodi baat karni hai." KS said with little hesitation.

"Haan bolo."

"Pichle kuch dinon mein humne tumhare sath bahut bura bartav kiya hai, uske liye I am sorry." KS apologized.

"Nahi koi baat nahi, bhul jao use. Raat gayi baat gayi." SP said quickly.

"Aa...hum dost ban sakte hain?" KS asked.

"Bilkul kyun nahi. Friends." SP extended her hand.

KS happily accept it,"Friends."

"Aur haan ek important baat to rah hi gayi." KS said.

"Kya?" SP asked.

"Haath aage karo."
SP did as ks said.KS take out the bracelet she bought yesterday and tied around her wrist. SP's heart overwhelmed by this gesture.

"Aaj se hum par tumhara pura haq hai. Agar koi baat tumhe nahi pasand ho to tum tok sakti ho hume aur agar jyada topagiri karen to ek kantap bhi laga dena. Aur agar tumhari life mein koi bhi problem ho to yaad rakhna hum hamesha tumhare sath hain. Bas tum khush rahna, thik hai?" KS was still holding her hand. A tear escaped from SP eyes which she immediately wiped.

"Bas kar ab rulayegi kya?" SP said dramatically.

"Chalo khana khalo, thanda ho raha hai. KS said.

Oo re manva tu to bavra hai
Tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hai

SP was continuously looking at KS. KS looked that and gesture her to eat.

Tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hai bavre
Kyun dikhaye sapne tu sote jaagte

"Hum khana achha banate hain na." KS asked in a way praised herself.

"Bahut achha." SP chuckled.

Jo barse sapne boond boond
Naino ko mund mund
Naino ki mund mund
Jo barse sapne boond boond
Naino ko mund mund
Kaise main chalu
Dekh na saku anjane raste

They finished the breakfast.
"Aur haan aaj se tumhe office drop karenge aur pick karenge, thik hai."

SP noded.

Goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara
Dheeme bole koi iktara iktara
Dheeme bole koi iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara

After KS went to her room, SP fall on the sofa, keeping her hand on her heart.

KS dropped her to her office. She came MPT and saw that HM was investigating those 2 goons. As soon as her mind replayed yesterday's incident, anger start rising in her.

"Tum log vaise bhi humara kuch bigad nahi sakte, aur haan 100 percent ka record hai hum dono ka, isliye us ladki ko to humse koi nahi bacha sakta." A goon said.

KS looked at him with blood filled eyes. She opened her belt and wrapped it around her hand. She entered in cell by kicking it. And start beating them.

"Himmat kaise hui tum logon ki haan? Haath laga kar dikhana use, tumhara hath nahi ukhada to humara naam KS nahi. Tumko to zinda hi nahi chhodenge hum......

"Bas bas karo maddam bas." A goon request her.

HM stopped KS and took out her out of cell.

"Ab tum batao woh hamla AA ne hi karvaya tha na." HM asked.

"Pata nahi madam.... ek admi aaya tha, chehra...aahh... dhaka hua tha, usne us...ladki ka photo...diya aur bola use marna hai." The goon tell winching in pain.

"Kad kathi kaisi thi?" Asked HM.

"Nata sa tha madam." He tell.

"MS hume lagta hai yeh Murari hoga, Angad ka right hand." KS said.

"Hmm, chaliye KS is Murari ko hi dekhte hain pahle."

(Case mein to kisi ko interest hoga nahi, including me. To maan lo ki case solve ho gaya.)

"Kya baat kar rahi hai, usne sach mein un gundon ki itni pitai ki woh bhi sirf mere liye." SP was talking to HM, collecting her stuff before leaving the office.

"Aur nahi to kya tumhe dekhna chahiye tha, par aisa kya ho gaya tum dono main ek raat mein.....haaw kahin WOH..." HM activated her Urmila mind.

"Pagal hai kya.....abhi Dilli door hai. Par achhi baat yeh hai ki kal hum dono mein dosti ho gayi." SP blushed imagining that but control herself.

"Chalo yeh baat to achhi hui, tum dono ke beech barf to pighal rahi hai....Achha hum rakhte hain thoda busy hain." HM cut the call.

As she came out of office, she saw KS was standing with support of her bike, at the another side of road. KS wave her hand. SP came to her.

"Hi, mujhe laga tum nahi aaogi." SP said.

"Aise kaise nahi aate, dosti ki hai." KS said.

"Achha suno na yahan thodi door par ek golgappe wala hai, bahut mast golgappe banata hai, khate hain na." SP requested with puppy eyes.

"Woh..... actually hum diet par hain to hum nahi khayenge. Sorry." KS tried to deny.

"Hmm...theek hai, koi baat nahi." SP lowerd her head. KS felt bad.

"Achha theek hai hum ek kha lenge....chalega?" KS said.

"Dodega, ab chalo." SP  immediately sat on bike. KS realise that she was acting.

"Notanki." She nodded her head.

Sun rahi hoon sudh budh khoke
Koi main kahani
Poori kahani hai kya kise hai pata

SP hesitantly kept her hand on KS' shoulder. This was the first time she was this close to her.

Main to kisi ki hoke yeh bhi na jaani
Rut hai yeh do pal ki ya rahegi sadaa
Kisse hai pata, kisse hai pata
Kisse hai pata

They reached at golgappa stole. SP gave first to KS. KS test it and gesture like 👌

Jo barse sapne boond boond
Naino ko mund mund
Naino ko mund mund
Jo barse sapne boond boond
Naino ko mund mund
Kaise main chalu dekh na saku
anjane raste

They again sat on the bike but this time there was no hesitation. SP opened her arms and start to enjoy the ride. Seeing her, KS further speed up the bike. Cool breeze was blowing on there faces.

Goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara
Dheeme bole koi iktara iktara
Dheeme bole koi iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara
Goonja sa hai koi iktara
