Confused 💞

45.

Teja's phone rang and she picked it up instantly.

"Reached home", Karan said from the other side.

"Bhabhi knows about us too" Teja replied.

"Umm... okay. I don't think that she will have a problem with me, she is really sweet. "

"Yes, she is happy."

"I thought so. It's only your brother who is..."

"Careful Karan. Not a word against him." Teja warned.

"I was just saying that he is a tough person to convince."

"I don't know, just don't talk about him." She said and towards the end her voice slightly cracked.

"Teju, what happened. Is everything fine, why do you sound so sad."

"I feel really guilty. Never have I seen my brother so upset. It feels like I disappointed him. I did talk to bhabhi, even she said that Bhai will understand and I know that eventually he will, but right now I just don't feel good." Teja was about to cry.

And out of no where Karan started humming a song ...

phir se mil rahee hai in pahado se nadi  he started singing.

phir se ho rahee hai subah
phir se chaand roshan aur taare bhee haseen
phir se kah rahee hai ye hawaaa.. he sang the wrong lyrics in order to gain Teja's attention. And he was right

"Dua ...it's phir se keh rahee hai yeh dua" Teja immediately corrected.

Karan knew it, Teja could take anything but not wrong lyrics. Her love for songs had no bounds.

"Then sing along" he said trying to make her feel better. Songs always made her feel better.

phir se...
ishq ho raha hai hamko phir se
dil ye kho raha hai mera phir se
ho rahe hain phir se lapata ...

phir se..
ishq ho raha hai hamko phir se
dil ye kho raha hai humse phir se
hans rahe hain phir se bewajah.... They sang together.

And just like that the topic which dulled Teja's mood was long forgotten.

It was almost three in the morning so they both decided to end the call and dozed off soon after.

The next day was a really happy one at Karan's house.
His parents were really happy to see their son back after months. His mother cooked his favourite food and they all say together enjoying their breakfast.
"Your mom told me that you were at Teja's house yesterday."

"Yes dad. She invited me for dinner..along with Sayli and Ruturaj."

"Hmm, so how is she."

"Good."

"And is everything sorted between you two."

This got Karan's attention. He frowned and said "what kind of a question is this. It is all good between us"  'rather amazing' he mumbled to himself.

"Oh sorry if I offended you . I didn't want to ask any personal question but both me and your mom noticed that there was some tension, but anyways I am glad that you both are doing good."

Karan just nodded. What more could he even say. His parents seemed to know it all and there was no point lying to them.

"She is a nice girl Karan, hold on to her. Do not let anything come inbetween you guys." His mom said.
