Walking Together Through the Memory Lane - Samaina FF

Chapter 30 - Christmas Evening

Author's note: I am aware that it has been 2 months since I updated the story. I am extremely sorry for being too late. Actually, I have some confusions regarding the pace and I don't want to make decision out of haste as it is my first FF crossing maximum no. of chapters so I wished to do full justice to it. Now I got everything clear. The story is at its end pace. Thank you so much guys for your constant support. The updates would be fast in this week. Now, I have come up with a new episode. I hope you all the enjoy the chapter and do let me know in the comments.

After so many days, on a beautiful sunday, everyone gathered at Samaina's house. Munna, Pandit, Dev, Sonakshi, Preeti and Swati are sitting together.

Sameer: So, we ended at Sonakshi Di indirectly accepting Dev Jiju's proposal.... Sonakshi di, even you know to propose diplomatically.
Sonakshi: Why not? After all, I am Dr. Sonakshi Dixit.
Naina: What an excuse! Do you know one thing? In our book, we named your character as Laila and Dev Jiju as Majnu.
Dev: Aww! My Jiji has given privilege.
Sonakshi: Shut up Dev. (Dev sighs and Sona looks at Naina) What? Laila and Majnu have a sad ending. I don't want such ending. (makes faces) Also I have seen in movies where many bar dancers are named as Laila.
Naina: Oh my Sona!
Sameer, Pandit, Munna, Swati, Preeti and Naina laughs at Sonakshi. Sonakshi pouts.
Sonakshi: What is your name in the story?
Sameer: We have the same name in the story. Friends and Parents names are changed in the story.
Sonakshi: Ajeeb Baat hai na, Dev (isn't it weird, Dev?)
Dev and others: No...
Sonakshi: Achha! (Alright!)
Sameer: Mom revealed to dad about me and Naina that night. I expected a not so huge storm in the house. But things were quite calm. Mom speaks to Naina's mom and taiji regarding this. But, surprisingly both mom becomes friends soon. Naina and my mom too speak with each other for hours gradually. Poor Naina's dad came to know very later.
Naina: Yeah. I thought she is a terror lady. But she is a sweetheart. Even Sameer is not so sweet to me.
Sameer: I am your husband, Naina. Not my mom.
Sameer understood what he said suddenly... Naina nudged his shoulders. Others are laughing at Naina.
Naina: I have become a laughing-butt for this gang. So bad.
Again others laughed.

Shefali's house

Arjun, Rakesh, Naina, Preeti are present at Shefali's house for the Christmas party in their house. Shefali is decorating the Christmas tree busily.

Mr. & Mrs. Victor welcomed the Agarwals. Arjun takes blessings from Mr. & Mrs. Victor. Shefali smiles at all.

Mrs. Victor – "Welcome you all! Come on, sit here. Shall I bring juice for you all?"

Rakesh nodded with a smile.

Mr. Victor – "Where are others, Rakesh ji. Beena ji, Bela ji, Naresh ji and Anand ji are missing here."

Rakesh – "They would join in 15 minutes. Naresh is in some meeting and Anand has got some call."

Mr. Victor – "Oh okay ji."

Mr. Victor and Rakesh are engaged in some political talks for sometime. Naina and Preeti are bored to hear all that. Arjun gives a sheepish smile and goes to Shefali. She is setting up bulbs on the Christmas tree.

Arjun – "Shefali, this looks beautiful."

Shefali – "Yeah, Arjun. Decorating this tree is such a lovely experience. I have been doing this since ten years."

Arjun – "Did you remember Pooja di 's wedding where you only setting up the lights? That time, you fell down and I caught you. Then, you and me felt awkward and run away from each other. We didn't meet each other till the end of wedding."
