"Hello Bhabhi", Sameer called Preeti as he knew she was the one who he could depend upon now. "Hello Sameer, kaise ho? Pandit abhi ghar par nahi hai." "Pata hai, mujhe apse baat karni thi". "Mujhse? Kya hua?" "Maine ek galti kar di" "Kya? Kya kiya tumne", she sounded worried. "Woh actually...", and he narrated the whole incident. "Hmm... Tum dono ke life itna complicated kyu hai yaar." "Bhabhi please meri help karo na" "Of course Sameer, par mujhe samjh mein nahi aa raha ki madad kaise karoon?" "Aap Naina se baat karo, uske dil mein joh bhi confusions ya galatfehmi hai usse dur kar do. Aur haan usse batana mat ki maine sab kuch apko bata diya. Woh kuch keh rahi thi ki usse samjh mein nahi aa raha hai how she is feeling and all. Please aaap baat karo usse." "Dont worry main baat karti hoon. Sameer please bura mat manna, par I think ki tumhe bhi bohot delicately handle karna padega. I know you love her par tum jaante ho na ki tum Naina ke utne kareeb kabhi aa sakte ho ya nahi mujhe nahi pata. Tum dono ke beech kuch physical hoga ya nahi, main nahi jaanti par tumhe samajhdari se kaam lena padega. Dubara aisa control mat khona. It's important that tum dono ke relationship mein koi misunderstanding na ho." "I know bhabhi, pata nahi kiya hua mujhe. Aage se dhyaan rakoonga". "Isme tumhari bhi galti nahi hai, tum khudko already bohot takleef de rahe ho... kair main baat karti hoon usse aur phir tumhe bataungi usne kya kaha." "Thanks a lot bhabhi". "Thanks ki zaroorat nahi hai Sameer, main tum dono keliye kuch bhi kar sakti hoon."

"Pata hai, ek toh main waise bhi Swati ke wajah se pareshan hoon aur ab yeh, at least ek problem toh solve hoga." "Swati ke wajah se pareshan kyu ho Sameer?". Oh god what had he uttered. "Kuch nahi woh bus generally keh raha tha ki Swati bhi worried hai na, Naina ki shaadi ke baad kya hoga..." "Baat ko ghumao mat Sameer sach bolo. Swati ne tumse kuch kaha?" He revealed the incident in his office and Swati's reaction to her. "Sameer tum uske baato ka bura mat manna, woh aisi he hai bachpan se. Naina ko lekar todhi protective hai na isiliye. Aaj tak mujhe bhi nahi pata Swati Naina ko lekar itni protective kyu hai. Please tum bura mat manna, waqt ke saath woh samajh jayegi." "Bhabhi Swati ke baare mein Naina se kuch mat kahiyega" "No no Sameer main aisa kuch nahi kahungi. Chalo abhi main rakti hoon, parlor ka kaam hai aur aaj shaam ko Naina se baat karke main tumhe call karti hoon."

Preeti wondered why Swati was so stubborn. She and Naina had explained to her numerous times that Sameer would keep up his promise, would not separated her from Naina but she always reverted back to square one. Though Naina is her sister and Swati her best friend from 2nd grade, she had a very hazy picture of the beginning of their relationship. Till now she did not know how they both realised their feelings. She hadn't noticed Naina being inclined to Swati in any other way than of a friend. But, when they were in college she was shocked to hear about their relationship. It took her several days to come in terms with the fact. Naina never showed a sign but once Swati revealed their relationship, she could have definitely said Swati always created a doubt in her mind, but Naina. It was shocking. Till date she doesn't know the exact kind of relationship they shared or how close they are. Right now her priority was to mend things between Sameer and Naina. Her heart went out to Sameer, he cant express his feelings openly, it must be difficult for him to control. God please give him the strength needed and please don't let Naina even unintentionally hurt his feelings.

"Naina jaake dekho darwaze par kaun hai. Aur haan iss baar daud ke mat jaana", chachiji's voice came from the ktchen. "Jee chachiji", naina who was writing an article in her room, left it to open the door. "Preeti tu, kaisi ho?"
, she hugged her sister even before she could step inside the house. "Main theek hoon behan". "Chachiji Preeti aayi hai". "Preeti , beta kaisi ho aur damadji nahi aaye?", Chachiji left her work in the kitchen to meet her daughter. "Nahi woh todha busy hai toh nahi aa paya." Naina dragged her inside her room saying , "Chachiji hum dono kamre mein honge" "Theek hai jao".

"Bata parlour kaisa chal raha hai?". "Acchi chal rahi hai Naina". "Mere saare bridal makeup tumko sambhalna hoga hai?". "Yeh bhi poochne wali baat hai, meri pyaari behen ki shaadi hai, main khud apne haato se tumko taiyaar karoongi. Accha taiyaari se yaad aaya, shaadi ki taiyari kaisi chal rahi hai". "Abhi tak kuch shuru nahi hua Preeti, agle hafte mummyji aa rahi hai Delhi se, tab shuru kar denge". "Theek hai...", Preeti wondered how to start the topic. "Toh kaisa gaya kal ka dinner plan?", she finally managed to start it. "Woh... accha tha", she noticed how Naina's expression changed. "Kya hua? Yeh tumhara chehra utar kyu gaya?" "Kuch bhi toh nahi Preeti." "Dekh jhoot mat bol mujhse, kuch toh hai joh tu mujhse chupa rahi hai." "Woh Preeti... kal Sameer aur main... matlab hum dono... woh kulfi..." "Dekho mujhe yeh woh kulfi samjh mein nahi aayega, joh bhi kehna hai mujhse saaf saaf bol." "Wahi toh problem hai, mujhe kuch saaf saaf samjh mein nahi aa raha hai toh tumse main kya bolun" "Matlab?" "Matlab yeh ki kal Sameer todha paas aa gaya, maine usse rok di par, ek pal keliye aisa laga jaise main behak gayi. Yeh sirf kal ki baat nahi, engagement wale din, galti se chu liya usne mujhe aur do din pehle office mein gale lag gaye hum. Par yeh sab mujhe ajeeb nahi laga. Kuch alag mehsoos hua." "Matla tumhe uncomfortable laga jab Sameer tumhara kareeb aaya?" "Nahi, yahi toh problem hai, mujhe uncomfortable zara bhi mehsoos nahi hua, balki..." She hesitated, did not know how to accept the fact or say the fact out loud. "Mujhe ach... accha laga Preeti, matlab comfortable tha, I felt peaceful. Mujhe bohot confusion ho rahi hai ki mujhe waisa mehsoos kyu hua." Shayad tumhe Sameer accha lagta hai, matlab ki woh tumhe samjhta hai, tumhari khushi ka khayal rakta hai, ghar walo ke samne tumhe support karta hai. Maybe he has become close to you isiliye tumhe ajeeb nahi laga." Naina was deep in thought. "Tumne iss relationship ko accept kar liya na Naina?" "Haan Preeti" "Pakka? Kya tum dil se Sameer se shaadi karna chahti ho, matlab are you ready to accept him as your husband?" "Haan Preeti." "Maybe issi wajah se tum confortable feel kar rahi ho, because tumhara rishta jud gaya hai Sameer ke saath. Tum dono ek dusre ka khayal rakte ho. Shayad issi rishte ke wajah se tumhe kuch ajeeb nahi laga hoga uska aise tumhare kareeb aana. Matlab aise bhot saare marriages bhi toh hai jinme pyaar na sahi understanding aur commitment toh hota hai couples ke beech". "Haan shayad tum theek keh rahi ho, matlab sameer ka saath hona accha lagta hai, main khush rehti hoon uske saath".
