First Love Or True Love (Completed)

Chapter 24: Girlfriend

Shehnaaz was standing near the window. It was a moonlit night. Moonlight was coming through the window and touching her face. Shehnaaz was lost in some other world. She had no idea of what was happening. It was just feeling so right. After a long time she was enjoying the beauty of the moon. After a long time her heart was beating fast. After a long time she was laughing in her mind remembering someone. Why all those were happening? IS IT LOVE?

"Aisa kyu ho raha hai? Ho sakta hai woh sirf mazak kar raha tha. Main kyu uske baare mein itna soch rahi hoon? Kya main sach mein uss se pyaar.... No no this is not right. Main humesha Rohit se pyaar karti thi aur humesha ussi se karungi. Sidharth is just my friend. Maybe he also thinks me only as a friend." Shehnaaz said in her mind.

Suddenly her mother entered the room.

"Arrey Shehnaaz, tu abhi tak jaag rahi hai?" Pammi Ji asked.

Shehnaaz came out of her thought and said, "Mummy aap? Itni raat ko.."

"Tujhe yeh baatane aayi thi ki kaal Rita ke ghar jaa kar unn logo ko grihaprabesh mein invite kar dena. Bohut kaam hai kaal sayad dhyan na rahe isliye aaj tujhe baata diya. Yaad karke unhe invite kar dena."

"Ok Mummy don't worry. Main unhe invite kar dungi." Shehnaaz said.

"Thik hai abhi so jaa. Good night." Pammi Ji said. She was about to leave, suddenly Shehnaaz said, "Mummy, apse ek baat puchu?"

"Haan puch na." Pammi Ji said.

"Kya ek insaan ko zindagi mein do baar pyaar ho sakta hai?" Shehnaaz asked.

Pammi Ji smiled. She made Shehnaaz sit on the bed and slowly patted her head.

"Paata hai Shehnaaz, pyaar toh ho jaate hai lekin saccha pyaar bohut muskil se milta hai. Aur agar kisiko do baar saccha pyaar mil jaaye toh woh bohut lucky hote hai. Aur mujhe nahi lagta sacche pyaar ko jaane dena chahiye." She said.

"Par kya yeh sahi hai? Yeh toh galat hai nah pehle pyaar ke saath?" Shehnaaz asked.

Pammi Ji was understanding the situation. "Life mein aksar aisa hota hai. Humein samajh nahi aata kya sahi hai aur kya galat. Aise mein apni dil ki sun ni chahiye. Kyu ki woh kabhi galat nahi hota. Isliye dil ki sun, kya paata tujhe tera saccha pyaar phir se mil jaye?" Pammi Ji said.

Shehnaaz smiled and slept on her mother's lap. Before falling asleep she again thought about Sidharth and smiled unknowingly.

Next day Shehnaaz went to Sidharth's house and invited everyone to their 'Grihaprabesh'. Everyone agreed to come except Neeti and Ashok Ji. Ashok Ji said that he had an important business meeting while Neeti decided to stay home. After that Sidharth and Shehnaaz went to their room for practice. At that very moment Sonia came to their house.

Rita Ji became very angry seeing her. "Tum? Tum kya kar rahi ho yaaha?"

"Hello Aunty Ji. Can I meet Sidharth?" Sonia asked.

"Aap Bhaiya se kyu mil ne aayi ho? He doesn't want to see you. Aap jaa sakti ho." Preeti said.

Neeti interrupted. "Mind your behaviour Preeti. Kitne dino baad aayi hai Sonia Di. At least unhe Bhaiya se milne toh de." She said to Preeti.

"Lekin...."

Ashok Ji indicated Preeti to stop and said, "Sonia jab chahe yaaha aa sakti hai. Don't forget that she is my friend's daughter. Sonia, Sid is in his room. Go and meet him."

Neeti smiled happily while Preeti made a face. Rita Ji didn't say anything and left. Ashok Ji also left for office.

Sonia went upstairs to meet Sidharth. She didn't find him in his room. While checking all the rooms Sonia saw Sidharth in the music room, practising with Shehnaaz. She knocked at the door. Both Sidharth and Shehnaaz noticed Sonia.
