Rajveer walked around the garden trying to clear his thoughts. What was happening to him ? How could he fall in love with Naina ? It was love that he felt, he had no doubt about that. Her one smile was enough to drive him crazy. Every conversation he had with her made him feel alive. He was so content and happy and whenever she was with him.
Rajveer looked up at Naina's window. He had this sudden urge to see her. to tell her how he felt. Logic was leaving his body. He rushed towards her room.
********
Abhimanyu sat in Naina's room, showing her the various destinations for the honeymoon.
"Naina..you will love Maldives. And then, we 'll go to Bali,Indonesia.."
"Abhi...I know...aap jaha bhi le ke jayenge..it will be good...lekin mujhe aapko apne business ideas dikhane hai..Abhi, I want to start my own company...remember, I told you about my meeting with investors. One of them agreed Abhi..."
"Naina...itne high interest rates pe bahar walo se credit lene ki kya zarurat hai....Hum invest karenge..."
"Abhi...humne pehele hi decide kiya hai..ki mein apna kaam humare personal zindagi se alag rakhungi...I will support my family even after marriage...u agreed, Abhi."
"Baap re..itna gussa...aur humne kuch kaha hi nahi...Naina" said Abhi, holding her hands " I agree with everything...all I want to say is you are brilliant...and investing in your company will be a profit for me...aur rahi parivaar ki baat....aapka parivaar kya humara nahi...hum kya ma-baba ke bete nahi ? "
Naina calmed down and smiled. " I know, Abhi...it's just that mein apne pairon pe khada rehna hai...and this company is my dream."
"Ok..then draw out legal papers...I will invest as anyone and if you do not meet the deadlines...I will sue like everyone else..What say ?" said Abhi.
Naina laughed.
"Hayee..isi hasi pe toh hum deewana hue the" said Abhi dramatically, holding his heart.
He came forward, putting her hair behind her ears.
Naina looked at him shyly. "Pata hai Abhi, aap jis tarah se mere family ko apna maante hai...mujhe bohot acha lagta hai..."
Abhi continued to look at her. He moved slowly towards her lips. He had just touched hers with his, when..
"Naina....Oh sorry"
Rajveer had opened Naina' room and halted at the door. Abhi and Naina broke apart and stood up.
"Mein..Mein baad mein aata hoon " said Rajveer, looking down.
"Nahi..aap aayiye Raj.." said Abhi.." Hum bas nikal rahe hai."
Abhi smiled at Naina and left the room. As he crossed Raj to go out f the room, Abhi stepped back.
"Raj...I..I would really appreciate it agar aap Naveen se kuch na kahe..u knw ..iss bare mein..." said Abhi smiling, a little embarrassed.
Rajveer nodded slightly still looking down.
There was an awkward silence in the room. Rajveer turned to leave.
"Rajveer" called Naina. "Aap kuch kehne aay the ?"
Rajveer turned back to her.
Naina noticed a strange pain in his eyes.
Rajveer left the room.
