Kuchh Ankahi Baatein

Trip to Mount Abu

Next morning Naina woke up early and help Chachiji to prepare lots of dry snacks to take along with them in trip and herself prepared stuffed aloo parantha, especially for someone... they too prepared some onion kachoris as requested by Preeti (Rohan's favorite) ....she also prepare some rolls of poori with dry vegetable for breakfast. Chachaji too helped them to pack the stuff properly and put it in their bags...

She dressed up in black jeans with blue full sleeves top, a small round chain with pendant, black round studs in her ears, black bellies without heels, hair tied in high pony, a bracelet in one hand and black strip watch in her left hand, ...... a perfect example of natural beauty with elegance......

Anand called them both holding their bags, "chalo beta ab der ho rahi hai... jaldi karo tumhari bus nikal jayegi...."

Bela came with dahi shakkar in hand and feed both of her, Preeti said making fun, "mummy hum jang ladne nahin ja rahe, ghumne ja rahe hai... kya aap bhi... aisa feel ho raha hai jaise yudhh ki taiyari kar rahi ho..." Bela hit on her head and said, "bakwaas mat kar, yeh shubh shagun hota hai" she kissed on their forehead and with lots of instructions, they left for college...

Naina : Chachji aap thodi der ke liye mandir ke paas rok lenge...please.... abhi thoda time hai college jaane mein bhi..." he agreed and stop car on road near the temple...

Naina Preeti gets down and went to meet Nanu who was waiting for her at her usual place. Preeti went inside the mandir for darshan and Naina stays back with Nanu. She touched his feet and take blessings. Naina said "aapse mile bina jaane ka man nahin tha... sorry aapko yahaan bulaya milne ke liye...."

Nanu smiled, "tere liye toh mein kahin bhi aa jaunga... achchha hua yahin bulaya agar tu ghar aa jaati toh dekhti ki donon bandaron ne ghar ki kya haalat bana rakhi hai kalse packing ke chakkar mein ..... aisa lag raha hi jaise bhukamp aaya ho ghar mein... lag raha tha trip par nahin kisi shaadi mein ja rahe ho, aise packing kar rahe the".... both laughed ...

Naina : Nanu aap bhi na... achchha hum chalte hai, varna aapke donon bandar saare college ko bhi sar par utha lenge... aap apna dhyaan rakhiyega.."

Nanu caressed her head and said lovingly, "tu bhi apna dhyan rakhna aur mere uss bandar ka bhi... aur haan ho sake toh usake dil ka bhi... tu samajh rahi hai na"

Naina gets shocked thinking, "kal chachaji aur aaj nanu... yeh ho kya raha hai mere saath... aisa lagta hai sab log sirf Sameer ki sifarish hi kar rahe ho... "

Preeti came and they both left with Chachaji for college... Swati, Priya and boys were waiting for them at college gate itself ...

Rohan getting restless : yaar lagta hai aaj phir der se uthi hogi... abhi tak nahin aayi... galti ho gayi, subah phone kar dena chahiye tha..." Munna laughed and said, "Bhai meri wali toh aa gayi, aur aaj toh mein bhi time par aa gaya"... Swati glared him and said, "bataau abhi.... Ek toh das baar phone kiya tab jaake tum uthe ho... aur yahaan sab ke saamne badi badi baatien"...

Then only car stopped and Naina Preeti gets down... Chachaji open the dickey and get their bags out... Preeti picked up her bag when about to pick Naina's, Rohan came and pick up her bag... "laao mein utha leta hun.. kab se wait kar rahe hai sab log..." he looked at Chachaji and greet him, Namaste uncle... Anand smiled back and look towards Sameer who also join them all and greet him.. he blessed him and said, "achchhe se jaana aur sab ek dusre ka khyal rakhna... he looked at Naina and gesture Sameer to take care of her... Sameer blinked to assure him that he will take care of her... he left getting an assurance from Sameer....

They went inside the college where all students were standing and waiting for the bus..... Principal madam called everyone and tell them to board the bus after their attendance, taken by JBR. He asked Rohan to help JBR in count and organizing the trip......

All students board the bus for starting their journey of their trip which is going to be full of masti and fun... but for love birds... it seems to be filled with more of love and to spent some lonely time with their partners...

Sameer board the bus holding her hand and make her sit comfortably on last seat ... all super 8 occupied last 4 seats to make sure to sit together and enjoy full...

Naina sat at the corner seat of last row. Sameer came and sat beside her after placing their bags in overhead shelf. Rohan & Preeti sits in front seat of Samaina, Swati & Munna sat adjacent to Rohan & Preeti and lastly Pandit & Priya settled on adjacent to Samaina.... All other students also get settled on their seats..... whereas Sunaina & gang board the other bus.... JBR asked driver to start the bus with a loud cheer from all students ... Journey starts..

Naina picked up her small sling bag and take out a packet of orange & khatti meethi goli (toffee) and give it to Sameer... he surprisingly looked at her and asked, "yeh kya hai... aaj isse hi khila kar pet bharogi kya"... she smiled and replied, "buddhu... Nanu ne bataaya tha ki tumhein bus journey kabhi kabhi suit nahin karti toh tumhare liye hai... isse tumhein pareshaani nahin hogi"... he picked up a goli and put it in her mouth and said, "tum theek toh mein theek" she smiled and also picked up a goli and put in his mouth, "mujhe theek rakhne ke liye tumhara theek rehna jyaada jaruri hai"... they both smiled and pass on the packets to all others....

Sameer : vaise Naina, ek baat kahun... aaj tum is jeans top mein bahut sundar lag rahi ho" she blushed hearing this and replied, " aaj tum bhi bahut handsome lag rahe ho aur dekho aaj phir se hum matching mein hi hai... sab log chidate hai ki hum hamesha plan karte hai"

Naina tried to open the window to let the cool air comes in but it was jammed. Sameer stood slightly and push with little more pressure to open it... unknowingly their faces was just a few inches away.. she suddenly aware of their closeness and his hot breath was falling on her face... he settled back on his seat after opening the window... she could hardly speak, "thank you" and start looking outside to avoid any awkwardness.. watching the passing trees as the cool breeze touched her face, a serene smile playing on her lip. Sameer tilted his head looking at her with utmost love.... he smiles seeing her cheeks turned red showing his effect on her.. He feels a deep sense of loneliness and longing within her heart..... he knew with time she would tell him, and he had to be patient with her...

After few minutes, Sameer, "Naina, bhukh lag rahi hai... kya karen.. iss Rohan ki packing ke chakkar mein kuchh theek se khaaya bhi nahin subah" Rohan turned back and said, "mujhe dosh mat de... khud ko dekha tha... saara ghar uthal puthal kar diya kapde decide karne mein jaise saari Mount Abu ki ladkiyaan toh isi ke intzaar mein palke bichhaye baithi ho"... Sameer smirks and said, "jis se milne ke liye mein hamesha intzaar karta hun voh toh mere saath hi hai, mujhe nahin dekhna kisi aur ko... samjha... aur haan aise pichhe mud mud kar agar hamari baatein suni na toh bas ke upar bitha dunga..." they all laughed on their cute fight.. to stop this she asked him to bring out her bag from shelf and pick up a small packet of folded pooris with dry sabzi wrapped in paper napkin. She offered him and said, "yeh lo tumhare liye hi pack kiya tha... mujhe pata tha ki breakfast nahin kiya hoga tumne aur bus mein baithate hi bhookh lagegi".. he smiled on her gesture that after Nanu she is the only person in his life who really cares about him, who knows everything without even telling her. Rohan again turned and said, "Bhabhi mein bhi hun.. mujhe kyun bhool jaate ho aao log"... Sameer glares him, "toone phir hamari baatein suni"....  She stops Sameer and gave some more wraps to others also and all enjoyed this small munching teasing Sameer... 

Then they all started playing Antakshari for some time girls vs boys, till they all got fully exhausted and tired as they all wake up early today beyond their regular schedule... they all settled back on their seats to take a quick nap.....

After few minutes, Sameer saw her head falling on the side due to jerky movement of the bus. He slowly slipped his hand behind her shoulder, carefully not to disturb her sleep and made her lean to him. He keeps adoring the beauty of his love sleeping so close to him. Looking at the strand of hair on her cheeks he thought to himself...

Unke Hothon, Kaano, Aankhon Ke Bade Kareeb Ho tum,

AeZulf ki laton, kabhi humari bhi sifarish kar diya karo...
