Baarish.....

Rajveer's pov
It was my birthday and being the  first child every year i get special treatment from my family.....  By treatment i meant love n affection.  Its not like i don’t get such treatment accept my birthday but my birthday is considered special.... Very special.
This year naina did everything mom would do.... She made kheer and my favourite breakfast. She did all according to moms direction.
I thought to take her out for dinner and ask her to be ready by 7.
After i finished my work in the evening,  one of my friend from London requested me to meet in a bar. It was our favourite place for hang out. I got there and found all of my friends here were there including nandini to give me a surprise on my birthday.....
With my buddies i almost forgot everything.... And went with the flow.
When we were in london, me and nandini,  we used to stay in my penthouse. Now she was here alone.so i decided to bring her with me.....
She can get the guest room.....
I thought....
But when naina opened tge door for us....i remembered the promise i made to her....she ready for me....she has been waiting for me.....
Her eyes found nandini beside me...and she cast her eyes downward.....
Her this act reminded me of the incident from jaypur.....
She never met my eyes from then...
We get inside,  nandini greets her normally.....
I spoke to nandini today that i want to give this relationship a chance as mom and dad are very happy with it. And surprisingly she supported me....
Naina told us to settle and she herself vanishes in the kitchen for some work....
I showed nandini tge guest room and greet her good night....
I come to my room, get change and laid to bed...waiting for naina to come  but she was taking too much time.  May she was having some food.....
I dont know when i slept waiting for her but when my sleep broke, she wasn’t in bed....
I came out of the room and headed to the kitchen and found naina sitting on tge floor, leaning the back on cabinet, eyes closed....
She is sleeping here!!! Why!!!
I call her gently...
--------------------------------
Rajveer : naina????
She wake up hurriedly and composed her in the same pace....
Naina : ha....aap yaha!!??
Rajveer : tum room mein kyu nahi aayi??? Aur tum yaha kyu soi??
Naina was silent....
Rajveer : maine kuch pucha tumse.....
Naina : guest room mein jane ka permission nahi dya aapne...
Rajveer : tum guest room mein kyu jaogi???!!!
Naina : phir kaha jau??!!
Rajveer : aapne room mein!!!!
Naina : ya neki aapke room mein??
Rajveer : haan....
Naina : lekin waha toh nandini ji rehgi na!!!!
She asked all so innocently that rajveer was dumbfounded....
Now he realised what was bothering her...
Rajveer : Nandini mere room, i mean hamare room mein kyu rehgi?
Naina : woh pehle bhi yaha rehte the na??!!! Uska saman bhi hain kuck closet mein..
Rajveer now scolding Himself. He doesn’t know how he could done such mistake. He should have remove each and every thing out of this house that belongs to nandini before Naina came here...
Rajveer realised that she is still affected by the incident of jaypur.
He also felt its important to give her a clarification.....
Rajveer : kamre mein jaa kar baat kare?
Naina could not think anything, so she agreed on whatever he was asking.
They came to their room and rajveer told her about the surprise.... And why he brought her here....
Rajveer : naina, she my best friend. I could not leave her alone,  so i had to bring her here. But you belong to here...this is your place... Its our room.  I know i did a mistake in jaypur but i promise I'm not repeating that.....you have to believe me when i said i want to give us a chance....
Naina just listened every thing he said....
Rajveer : aab agar saare baat clear hogaya to sone chale?
Naina : aapko kuch deni thi....
Rajveer : kya??
Naina : aapka gift!!!!
Rajveer noticed her gaze had found a paper wrapped gift infront of the dresser. He took the gift and started unwrap it..
Naina : chota sa tofa hain...shayed aapko pasand na aye...
When rajveer opened the gift he found a framed photo graph of his family. It was from last diwali he had before he came to london for study.
He can also remember that naina took the photo on alekhs phone may be.
Naina was looking at him hesitantly if he liked that gift or not...
Rajveer : ye bahaut khub surat gift hain naina...i loved it.... Thank you very much.....
