The week was both exciting and hectic. Naina was finding the subjects of second year quite interesting. Sameer had no other agenda than to look at her, admire her and find moments to be close to her. Sonali and other two girls let no opportunity pass when they could tease Naina. Rahul had started paying small compliments to Sonali and Naina caught her blushing a couple of times. It was a good sign.

On Friday, they sat chatting under the tree.

"Naina kal bas do class hain aur parson to Sunday ki chutti hai... chalo na bike pe ghumne chalte hain",  Sameer was excited.

"Nahi Sameer, mujhe Phulla bua ke ghar jana padega... do mahine ki chuttiyon ke baat lauti hun... unhone kaha tha phone pe ki aate hi mujhse milne aana... chachiji ne unke liye kuch saaman bheja hai woh bhi dena hai", Naina also wanted to go with him but could not postpone this visit.

Sameer was disappointed, " Kab jaaogi aur kab tak aaogi?"

"Kal do hi lecture hain subah... uske baad chali jaungi... aur parson dopaher ko lautungi", Naina told him her schedule.

" Theek hai, main yahan tumhare intezaar mein akela baitha rahunga aur tum maze karna." He was not happy with the prospect of spending the time alone.

"Sach mein, Sameer, main pakka ruk jaati agar ruk sakti... bua dadi bhi akele rehti hain... woh bhi chahti hain ki koi unse aake mile... khud to zyaada bahar jaa nahi sakti",  Naina loved her grandmother.

" Toh mujhe bhi le chalo",  he desperately wanted to be with her.

Naina remembered how Phulla bua always had been very modern in her thinking... she had even asked Naina when she had visited last time, if she had any boyfriend.

Naina was aghast.

"Arre, isme itna chaunkne wali kya baat hai... ab iss umar mein tera nahi toh kya mera boyfriend hoga?" The old lady had affectionately reprimanded her.

"Aap kaisi baatein kar rahi hai, dadi bua, main kaise kisi ladke se dosti kar sakti hun? Ghar pe sab kya kahenge? "

"Tere ghar wale sab kuen (well)  mein hi rehte hain... bas Anand thoda samajhdaar hai... lekin yeh naya zamana hai... ladkon se dosti karne mein koi burai nahi... aur kya pata... tujhe tera hamsafar issi shahar mein mil jaaye. " Phulla bua encouraged her.

Naina sighed, "Mil bhi gaya toh konsa hamare pariwaar wale maan jaayenge... itna aasan nahi hoga. "

The old and experienced eyes of her grandmother sensed something, "Koi hero mil gaya hai kya?"

Naina quickly controlled herself, "Nahi, nahi, main toh bas bata rahi thi ki agar aisa hota toh... "

The old lady placed a hand on her cheek, "Meri pyaari si gudiya ko jis din uska hero milega na, sabse pehle mujhe batana... main ek baar usse parakh lungi toh phir dekhti hun woh Bina kaise taang adati hai... Tu kisi baat ki chinta mat kar... teri yeh dadi bua tere sapne tootne nahi degi."

Naina's eyes had brimmed with tears.

"Hello... kahan kho gayi? " Sameer waved a hand in front of her.

Naina came out of the memory of that day, "Kahin nahi... soch rahi thi ki kal nahi par kisi din tumhe Phulla bua ke ghar zaroor lekar chalungi... unhe mere hero  ko dekhna hai."

"Achcha",  Sameer was amazed at her courageous idea.

" Pehle tum toh apne hero ko theek se dekh lo ", he shifted closer.

Naina did not move, but shifted her gaze to him" Maine toh dekha hai... tabse dekh rahi hun jab uss hero ko pata bhi nahi tha ki koi usse dekhta hai."
