Kuchh Ankahi Baatein

First Date

Its mid night when Sameer asked, "Naina agar tum haa kaho toh ek jagah chalein, mera kal se man tha ki tumhen vahaan lekar jaaun"... she nodded in yes all excited, said cutely, "par jayenge kaise, chowkidar toh nahin jaane dega baahar.. kuchh sochna padega... tum kaho toh mein JBR se permission lekar aaun" Sameer laughed and poke on her forehead, "meri cute si topper, date par jaane ke liye Professor se permission nahin lete... buddhu"... Naina rubbed her forehead and said cutely, "haan toh mujhe kya pata... mein toh pehli baar hi ja rahi hun na"... he smiled and said "mein bhi pehli baar hi ja raha hun... par kuchh toh sohchna padega... vaise kitna ajeeb hai na, hamari pehli date voh bhi aadhi raat ko..." they both laughed on thinking how their love story is totally different from others... firstly they spent one year without talking to each other inspite of meeting daily in school, after that one year in different cities .. far away from each other but close by heart..... then friendship in college that too even knowing what exactly they are feeling for each other .. then proposal and after so long acceptance... a unique bonding...

Sameer after thinking a lot, idea strike, "Naina tum yahin gate ke paas hi khadi rehna, par chhup kar kone mein kahin watchman dekh na le... mein bas abhi aaya do mintue mein"... saying this he went to main switchboard room and pull out the fuse plug making all lights off in the garden area and gate...

Watchman surprisingly, "arey itna andhera kaise ho gaya yahaan... andar toh bijli aa rahi hai.. chalo jaakar dekhna padega" saying this he moved inside to check the main switchboard...

Sameer came back to Naina, open the gate slightly and move out from the guest house with her....

Naina worriedly asked, "Sameer tumhein fuse nikalana bhi aata hai... bechare watchman uncle ko kitna pareshaan kar diya" Sameer replied, winked to her "ab pehli date par jaane ke liye kuchh toh mehanat karni hi padegi na"... "Vaise hum ja kahaan rahe hai itni raat ko, tumne bataya nahin" she asked curiously.. "hum yahin paas mein hi ek hilltop hai, vahin ja rahe hai bas, dekho aadhi raat ho chuki hai, thodi der mein Sunrise bhi ho jayega, vahaan se kehte hai bahut sundar dikhta hai, phir mein tumhari kuchh photos bhi lena chahta hun vahaan mere saath... iss dress mein" they reached near hilltop after a short walk in all empty road talking, holding hands .. Sameer helps her to climb and walk on rocks, holding her tightly from his hands... they settled at the topmost rock....

Sameer, "Naina pata hai is jagah ko Toad Rock kehta hai, voh dekho voh patthar bilkul toad jaisa dikhta hai, jaise jump karne wala ho, aur udhar se nakki lake bhi dikhti hai... mujhe na yeh sab kal auto wale ne bataya tha jab mein akela baahar gaya tha market..." he instantly keep quiet to not make her feel embarrassed, "tumhein aise mujhse kuchh bhi kehne ke liye sochne ki jarurat nahin hai, sach mujhe ab iss baat ka bilkul buraa nahin lagtaa, aur phir tum toh mere liye hi gaye the na... jo kisi ne nahin socha voh tumne kar bhi diya.. tum sabse best ho" she chuckled and pull his cheeks cutely..

It was full moon shone brightly in the darkening sky, beautifying the night. They stared at each other in the moonlight, full of stars, "Naina, tumhein pata hai, jab bhi mujhe tumhari yaad aati thi, ya man udaas hota tha toh mein chand se baatein karta tha.. sabse jyaada jab Delhi mein tha, tumse dur, sabse dur... pata bhi nahin tha ki kabhi tumhein dobara mil paaunga, dekh paaunga, jis pyar ke sahare ji raha tha us pyar ka kya bhavishya hoga yeh bhi nahin pata tha... sach bahut yaad aati thi tumhari" Sameer said while crying silently, "mujhe bhi.. maine bhi voh ek saal bas tumhari yaadon ke saath hi gujara hai, roj raat ko balcony mein khade rahkar chand se khoob saari baatein karti thi tumhari, kabhi kabhi toh shikayat bhi ki hai tumhari" she laughed slightly while wiping his tears, "par ab toh mera apna chand mere paas hai.. mujhe kisi aur chand ki jarurat nahin hai... aur voh is aasmaan ke chand se bhi jyada sundar hai, jo har ghadi, har waqt mere saath rahega... sirf mera" Sameer said cupping her face in his hand..

Sameer bring out a chocolate from his pocket, "Naina aaj ke hamare best day par kuchh toh meetha hona hi chahiye na" saying this he breaks one slice and make her eat, she too picked one piece and feed him, "hamari aaj ki ek aur meethi yaad".... She said with her eyes locked with his eyes..

Sameer was kept on looking the excitement in her eyes, the movement of her hands when she talked, her non-stop smile, everything was mesmerized, he could see the warmth of his life. He could see her smile came from deep inside to light her eyes and spread into every part of her.... He kept looking at her charming face glowing with happiness... he was indeed enjoying her cute talks. Her face had no makeup, but she still managed to raise his pulse. He blushes and shy little on his thoughts, thinking, "isski yahi hansi, yeh muskurahat dekhne ko taras gaya tha... aaj toh bas yahi dua maangta hun ki yeh muskan isake chehre se kabhi dur na ho... aankhon mein aansun ho toh bhi sirf khushi ke... na koi gam, na koi dukh isake aas paas bhi na aa sake..."

Sameer, "Naina tumhein pata hai mein tumhein aaj yahan kyun laya" she shook her head, he smiled and said, "kyunki aaj hamare jeeven ki ek nayi shuruaat hai, ek nayi subah.. jo mein tumhare saath dekhna chahta hun... hum apni zindagi mein aane wali khushiyon ka swagat ek saath karenge, muskurate huye, haath mein haath thaame... zindagi bhar ek dusre ka saath na chhodne ke vaade ke saath..."

As the dawn arrives, the rays of sun fall on them.. the most beautiful sunrise they have ever witnessed. The cooling and chirping of birds constitute the background score. The warmth of the rays emitting from it makes their body go crazy, which energize, renew them to give hope for a brighter life ahead.... everything was just heavenly beautiful..

Sameer click and capture their beautiful moments together with a wide smile on their faces...

Unwillingly they both stood to come back at guest house. She steps forward when he held her hand to stop and hugged her fiercely... they stayed in each other's arms for quite some time soaking in the emotional warmth. Naina slightly pulled her away from him, looked at him and said... "I Love You" is all she managed to say and that was what he wanted to hear from her. Finally, he said...

Chupke se dhadkan me utar jaayenge, raahen Ulfat me had se guzar jaayenge,

Aap jo hamen itna chahenge, hum to aapki saanson me pighal jaayenge....

Being early morning hours, even watchman was in deep sleep and they took the advantage to quietly entered ...

Sameer while crossing the corridor, "Naina tum thak gayi hogi, ab jaakar rest karo... thodi der mein milte hai" .. "Sameer, tum bhi thoda aaraam kar lo, thodi der mein tum logon ko rock climbing ke liye bhi jaana hai" she said lowered her eyes to hide her emotions...

Sameer replied coolly, "voh sab baad mein, pehle tum jaao aur achchhe se aaraam karo... mujhe meri Naina hamesha hansti, muskurati huyi milni chahiye... aur tum is baat ka dhyaan rakhogi.. samjhi"... they both laughed and reach near the corridor when they saw Rohan and Preeti were coming from other side holding each other's hand towards them. "tum is waqt kahaan se aa rahe ho" asked Sameer curiously, "bhai teri love story shuru ho gayi toh bhul gaya hamari bhi chal rahi hai" Rohan smirked on them looking at Preeti lovingly..... after some chit chat they move further and saw Munna Swati were also coming back to room along with Pandit & Priya... they all laughed and feels thrilled spending most awaited lovely time with their partners...

In girls' room, Naina, "yaar tum log jaldi se thodi der aaraam karlo phir jaana bhi hai na rock climbing ke liye sabko... aur haan khoob saari photos laana, mujhe dekhni hai" she turned to Swati, "please Swati tu meri iss jhalli behen ka dhyaan rakhna... yeh bohot laaparwaah hai, apna dhyaan nahin rakhti, kahin chot vot na laga le excitement mein..." Preeti came and hugged her from side, "mein nahin jaa rahi kahin tujhe chhod kar..... mera mood nahin hai, please na... hum yahin masti karenge na ek saath donon behene..." Swati & Priya too joined them, "haan na Naina, hamara bhi man nahin hai jaane ka.. yahin kuchh plan karte hai... ladko ko jaane dete hai...". Naina convinced them all to go and have fun, get new experience of rock climbing which they surely not get in Ahmadabad.... after lots of convince girls agreed, they all slept and after two hours sleep, Swati, Preeti & Priya gets ready and left for tracking with the group, leaving Naina alone in room still sleeping peacefully or can say dreaming about him... her Sameer...
