Tere Mere Dil

…..

''Dr Tarika,'' Abhijeet called leaning against his car door.

Tarika had just come out from hospital when she heard him calling her name.

''Abhijeet..'' She moved near him, surprised with his sudden appearance. ''Tum wapas kaab ain?''

''Kal raat.'' He replied shortly.

''Kaal raat… mu- mujhe bataya nahi..''

''Mujhe laga tum disturb ho jaogi.'' Disappointment was clearly audible in his voice.

''Main kyu disturb hone lagi.'' Tarika replied, a bit hesitated.

''Had a tough night?'' He asked.

To Tarika he heard intimidated for the very first time. And to be honest she never thought he could be this much intimidated.

''Hmm.. yeah.. a bit.'''

''Had any rest?''

''Two hours. Tum aise puchtach kyu kar rahein ho mujhse?'' She wasn't easy to dominate.

''Puch tach nahi kar raha…. Bas, tumhara kuch waqt mange wala hu tumse toh sure ho raha tha ki mujhe do paogi ya nahi.''

''Ítni si baat?''

''ummm.. yeah.''

''Sham ko milte hain then..''

''Now?''

''Now?/''

''Yeah..'' said Abhijeet.

Tarika thought for a while.

''Hmm..''

''C'mon Tarika, we are meeting like a week later.''

Tarika nodded.

''Thank you… get in the car then.''

Tarika followed him inside the car. They drove off.

Inside the car Tarika was messaging someone.

''Kisey msg kar rahi ho?'' Abhijeet asked.

''My roommates.''

''Hmm.. hows your week?''

''Busy? Yours?''

''Busy as well.''

''Tumhe Canada jayada psanad hain ya London?''

''London..''

''Kyu?''

Abhijeet behaved as if he didn't hear her and kept driving. Tarika shrugged and started browsing net in her mobile.

''Tumne pucha nahi ham kaha ja rahein hain?'' Abhijeet asked after a while.

Just then Tarika realized she actually never wanted to know the destination. Why? Tarika's heart was giving a different answer but she concluded it was because of her tiring night shift that her mind was not functioning perfectly.
