Tanhaiyan

Arz kiya hein!

Hello dear readers!

I wanted to talk about a few things. Guys, it takes a lot of efforts to write each of these chapters. I try giving my best to you guys and never compromise with the quality of the chapters. The problem is I see a lot of reads but the votes hardly reach 20. And frankly, that kinda upsets me. It's my request that you guys vote and if possible comment as well on the chapters. A normal heart as a comment can also mean a lot. And your one vote can seriously make my day!

Also, a few readers have asked me if I write the shayaris on my own. So, the answer is yes. I really hope you enjoy the coming chapters.
Happy Reading!!

(Everybody gathers around the bonfire arranged. Bani sits beside Sid opposite Veer.)
Lavanya- So Siddhant...
Siddhant-Oh please, you guys can call me Sid.

Lavanya-Okay...so, Sid, where do you work?
Siddhant-I am a doctor by profession. I work at the Sanjivani Hospital.
Meera- Kya baat hein!!
Bani-Pakka na? Matlab jiss Sid ko main janti thi woh toh kitabon se hamesha dur bhaga karta tha.
Sid-(chuckles) People change with time I guess..
Lavanya-Toh Sid, tumhari life mein koi...?
Sid - Nahi.
Lavanya- Aise kaise? Itne handsome bande ki life mein koi toh hogi hi.
Aman(in mind) - Handsome!?
Aman- Ahem...Ahem. (Aman looks at Lavanya)
Sid- Thi koi...pehle.
Lavanya-Thi?
Sid- Haan...phir usne iss naachiz ka dil tod diya (he says, patting his heart. Shaking his head)
(This catches Veer's attention and Bani smiles awkwardly.)
Veer(in mind) - Agar ye aese hi bolta raha toh kahi iski hadiyan bhi na tut jaye.
Meera- Come on Sid! You are such a sweetheart. Dekh lena tumhare liye koi bohot special ladki bani hogi.
Haider (in mind) -Sweetheart!!
Akash- (looking at all the guys and their expressions, muttering softly) Payal, agar tum apne cousin ki salaamati chahti ho toh jaldi se kuch karo.
Payal (thinking) -Accha ruko... sochne do.
Payal - Guys! Why don't we play something?
Aman- That's a great idea Payal!! Par hum khelenge kya?
Lavanya - Truth or dare?
Akash- Fine. Let's do it.
Meera- I'll spin the bottle!
(Meera spins the bottle. It's mouth lands on Haider and the other side on Akash. Akash gets to ask him first.)
Akash - Okay so Haider, truth or dare?
Haider- Truth.
Akash-Okay sooo... tell us about your first kiss!
Haider- Fir...first kiss?
Akash - Haan wohi!
(Haider looks at Meera shyly, thinking about their kiss in Dahanu. Yes, that was his first kiss. Meera's heart skips a beat as she sees Haider looking shyly at her. The fact that she was his first kiss, made her heart flutter.
Haider- Meri first kiss thi...Mee...
Veer- Khushi!!!
Meera- Kya!?
(Everybody looks at Meera, Bani smiles, trying to control herself from laughing out.)
Meera- I mean... Oh! I see...
Haider- Veer...tu kya bol raha hein?! (he says with an annoyed undertone)
Veer- Bilkul! Tu bhul gaya kya? Mujhe toh abhi tak yaad hein! Tu kitna sharmaa raha tha! Ek hafte tak shayad nahaya bhi nahi tha na?!
Meera(in mind) - Kyaaa!
Haider- Kuch bhi bol raha hein matlab. Khushi just kissed me on the cheek. Bas. (He says, as if trying to justify himself to Meera. )
Veer- Aur tu gaal pakkad ke poore din ghoom bhi toh raha tha! I still remember tu kitni shaairiyaan sunaaya karta tha! Aur uske liye bhi toh kitni saari likhi thi tu ne!
(Author-Aaj Veer Haider ko marwane wala hai. XD)
Haider- Veer!!
Veer - Aur tujhe woh tum dono ka farewell wala performance yaad hein?! Wait, I think mere paas uski abhi bhi picture hein.
