Shivansh opened the door for her and she hesitantly sat inside and closed the door while he came to his seat and started the car..
The darkness of the night enveloped the car like a shroud, the only sound being the soft hum of the engine and the occasional crickets chirping outside. Shivansh's hands gripped the steering wheel firmly, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. Beside him, Shivika sat motionless, her gaze lost in the blackness outside her window.
The silence between them was palpable, a heavy mist that hung in the air, refusing to lift. It wasn't an uncomfortable silence, but rather a companionable one,
Shivansh moved his hand to put his mobile ..but mistakely he turned on the music system...
~सुन, मेरे हमसफ़र~
~क्या तुझे इतनी सी भी खबर?~
~की तेरी साँसे चलती जिधर~
~रहूँगा बस वहीं उम्र भर~
~रहूँगा बस वहीं उम्र भर, हाय~
As the beautiful voice of the lyrics molded in the atmosphere shivika's face turned to look at shivansh who was going to close the music
" Chalne dijiye.." shivika said in a low voice.. music was the only thing which gave her peace... She looked outside the cold breeze passed through her face giving relief as the song continued..
~जितनी हसीं ये मुलाकातें हैं~
~उनसे भी प्यारी तेरी बातें हैं~
~बातों में तेरी जो खो जाते हैं~
~आऊँ ना होश में मैं कभी~
~बाहों में है तेरी ज़िन्दगी, हाय~
Shivansh's eyes found his way to shivika.. her eyes were closed.. a small smile crept on his face as he saw her peaceful face..
~सुन मेरे हमसफ़र~
~क्या तुझे इतनी सी भी खबर?~
~ज़ालिमा तेरे इश्क़ ਚ मैं~
~हो ਗਈਆਂ ਕਮਲੀ, हाय~
The song continued making both shivika and shivansh enjoy the silent peace ....
~मैं तो यूं खड़ा किस सोच में पड़ा था~
~कैसे जी रहा था मैं दीवाना~
~छुपके से आके तूने~
~दिल में समां के तूने~
~छेड़ दिया कैसा ये फ़साना?~
Shivansh's heart skipped a beat as these lines played.. he felt like he was himself feeling the lyrics.. suddenly shivika opened her eyes and he averted his gaze from her... Showing he was focused on driving but he was stealing glances of her..
~ओ, मुस्कुराना भी तुझी से सीखा है~
~दिल लगाने का तू ही तरीका है~
~ऐतबार भी तुझी से होता है~
~आऊँ ना होश में मैं कभी~
~बाहों में है तेरी ज़िन्दगी, हाय~
These lyrics played and shivika's eyes found shivansh's looking at her... They stared each other for a second and then averted their gaze..
~है नहीं था पता, के तुझे मान लूँगा खुदा~
~की तेरी गलियों में इस कदर आऊंगा, हर पहर~
Shivansh's eyes weren't ready to leave her beautiful shining face making her heart beat fastly.. she was aware of his gaze but didn't dare to look at him..
~सुन, मेरे हमसफ़र~
~क्या तुझे इतनी सी भी खबर?~
~की तेरी साँसे चलती जिधर~
~रहूँगा बस वहीं उम्र भर~
~रहूँगा बस वहीं उम्र भर, हाय~
The song ended with a beautiful melody of tune as they reached near shivika's home....
She inhaled deeply and smiled
" Thankyou.." shivika said slowly and opened the gate to go out ,shivansh was so lost in her that he didn't noticed her opening the door..
She stepped out but due to pain in her feets she hissed.. seeing this he held her wrist and asked her to stop .
And himself came out to her side and helped her to come out...
" Thankyou.." she again murmured slowly smiling and he nodded with a small smile..
She started going inside.. as he kept watching until she disappeared from his sight..
Sitting back in the car.. the scenes played in his mind...
He wondered what happened to him .... Why he got lost?
Shooking his head.. he drove to his home...
Meanwhile on Kabir's asking tanhi agreed to go with him..
They both settled on his bike.. wind was blowing coldly with a comfortable silence...
As they sat in silence... Kabir's eyes weren't leaving her shining face.. he was watching her from the mirror of the bike.. when tanhi noticed this a smile came on her face but she quickly hide it and said
" Bike par dhyan dijiye sir.. accident ho gya aur hamari haddiya tut gyi to aap hi paise Dena fir" tanhi said teasingly making him chuckle
" Ab... Kaise dhyan jayega jab itni pyari si ladki baithi ho sath m toh.." kabir said teasingly as tanhi smiled...
" Tum to ho hi pagal!" Tanhi said trying to hide the little blush which came eventually with his teasings..
" Hmm.. tumhare pyar m" kabir said and increased the speed of the bike.. suddenly he pulled break making her almost fall over him
" Abbee oyeee thang se chala!! Mujhe marna nahi hai!!" Tanhi said in horror as he laughed at her reaction..
" Jaisa meri hone wali biwi kahe.." kabir said and tanhi's expression changed.. she gulped and said in a low voice
" Don't say this.."
" Hn?" Kabir asked not able to hear her voice properly...
" I said.. don't say these that I will be your wife.."tanhi said looking around as tears came in her eyes so she looked around to hide them..
" Ab future wife ko future wife nahi kahunga to kya shivansh ko kahu?" Kabir said teasingly to lighten her mood as he saw her getting uncomfortable with this talk..
She laughed and said" shivansh? Wo kaha se aa gyaa"
Kabir too laughed as they reached near tanhi's home..
" Stop here.." tanhi said and he stopped the bike but looked at her being confused
" Par tumhara Ghar to aage hai?" Kabir asked
" Hmm p-par.. itni raat ko agr koi dekhega toh galat samjhega.." tanhi said nervously.. he understood and watched her go.. he followed her silently until she went inside her home and then went back to his home..
As shivansh reached his home.. being confused and lost .. his sister approached him..
" Oohooo shivansh maharaj ji ghar par padhare hai!!! Swagat hai!!" Aadhya his big sister said teasingly
" Mummyy aapki putri ko konse pagal khane se leke aaye the!" Shivansh said rolling his eyes..
" Jahan se tujhe laye the!" His mother shouted from kitchen as aadhya with all of their cousins burst into laughter
" Chandni chawk ke saare pagal mere hi ghar m hai" shivansh said being annoyed as everyone laughed more..
