Dev could not believe that some random person asked Sona for a dance and he stood there like a dumbo. He is not able to sense anything, why this sudden possessiveness towards her? She can dance or do whatever with anyone, who is Dev to interfere? All these questions were fighting with each other in his brain
"Why are u standing here alone Dev? Just come to the dance floor" Anisha took him and he accompanied her happily. He saw that Sona and that bloody Vikas were laughing on some unknown topic.
DEV'S POV
"Where is Rohit?" I asked Anisha as she was dancing with me
"He is flirting with another girl in the bar counter. So... Hope u dont mind" she told me. Our condition were almost same
"Dont be upset. He will realize soon" I consoled her.
"Anisha, I m sorry. She came to me first" Rohit was trying hard to pacify Anisha but she ignored him and continue the dance
"Go Anisha, its good to forgive" I told her and place her hand in Rohit's hand.Then my eyes fall on Sona's waist where Vikas placed his hand. Anger consumed me to the core.
"Can I take my girlfriend for a round of dance?" I didnt know when these words slipped from my mouth, I noticed Vikas' face which became numb
"Sure." he stammered and left me alone with Sona. "What was that?" she asked. I acted to be innocent
"What?"
"Girlfriend?" she questioned
I chuckled, "If I had told friend, then he wont have left your waist" and winked at her
"Are u jealous?" she smiled
"Nope, its just concern for u. He is not a right guy" I told her
The tune changed into a romantic song, "NAZDIKIYAN"
SONA'S POV
Raaton ke jaage subah miley hai
Resham ke dhaage yeh silsile hai
Laazmi si lagne lagi hai
Do dilon ki ab nazdeekiyan
Dev placed his hand on my back, my hand on his shoulder and our free hands finally met. We danced to the music, our feet in perfect sync to the beating of my heart
Dikhti nahi par ho rahi hain nazdeekiyan
Do dil hi jaane lagti hain kitni mehfooz nazdeekiyan
As the song progressed I felt relaxed, and allowed a small smile to form on my lips. He was perfect . I have never been so close to him, I could admire his features.
Zariya hain ye aankhein zariya
Chhalakta hai jinse ek armaano ka dariya
Aadate hain inki purani
Ankahi si keh de kahani
The warmth between us grew more powerful by the second. My heartbeat was growing steadily along with it. Our dance was perfect; everything from our breathing to how our feet moved stayed in sync.
Parchaaiyan do judne lagi hai
Dekho hawa mein udne lagi hai
Pankh jaisi lagne lagi hain
Do dilon ki ab nazdeekiyan
When the song ended the audiences' applause filled our ears. I couldn't help but smile at him. In that very hour I wondered why I didn't see him before. Soon we parted from our positions. Why it feels amazing to be near him? Why I did not feel uncomfortable with him? He is like any other boy. Then, I got zoned out form my world of thought by Priya's voice
"Its not fair, its my wedding and people are gawking at u guys" she pouted
"Ya Sona, u two were so lost in each other" they giggled.
Soon the party ended with us being half drunk. I was experienced in it, so nobody had to take care of me after drinking.
"Sona, u and Dev go to the room, I will have to take Priya" he told and left us again, alone. We walked together
"Arent u drunk? I saw u gulping down shots" he asked
"I am experienced, u see" I winked at him
"Why are u even a girl? U should better be a boy" he commented and I rolled my eyes in return.
"I wish I could be a man. Its really tough to be woman, we have to sacrifice, bear pain, bleed every month and what not" I told him..
"I know, I have seen my mom doing everything for me and dad without complaining. I could never be like her. Can I ask u a question?"
"Hmm.." I nodded
"As far as I remember, u were never so blunt. Why this change?" he asked me
"How do u know I wasnt blunt? U never talked to me at school except for those silly fights"
"I heard and u used to tell Rehaan to mind his tongue while speaking in front of others"
"Ya, thats right. I was never so blunt but we have to mould ourself as per the situation and requirement"
"Correct. Anyways, Good night"
We reached our rooms, before leaving he hugged me.
"Good night Dev"
