Early morning, new day new hope...Tani slowly opened her eyes from sleep. She didn't know why but that morning was something different for her. She opened her eyes slowly. She could feel that her head wasn't resting on the soft cotton pillow but on something hard. But still it was gave her a soothing effect. She tilted her head and looked at him. He was closer to her today than usual. She smiled. She tried to wake up but only then she realized it wasn't that easy. She titled her head and looked at the direction which was making her difficult to wake up. Her smile was soon replaced by shock. She found his hands closely wrapped around her waist. He looked up and realized that the hard material that she was resting was his hard chest. She was flagbastered. She slowly freed herself from his grip and got down. He left out a small moan and turned aside. She stood there watching him getting back to his sleep. She found her pillow lying on the ground."Aise kaise ho saktha hai??" she questioned herself and placed the pillow back onto their bed. She found him sleeping peacefully. He looked calm and cute. She remembered what happened the previous day. A smile followed by blush followed her face. She went down.After an hour he woke up and sat on the bed. He stretched out his hand to get away from his morning blues. He moved towards the window. The sight in front of him caught his attention. He found Taani, Swayam, Sharon and Shivam in the basket ball court. Taani was busy shouting Swayam's name. Her strokes were perfect, The way she placed her goal, the way she defended the ball, the way she curved her eyebrows when Shivam lost the ball and Swayam picked it. he smiled looking at her. He was just starring at the basket ball court.He was out of his trance when his mobile rang."Hello!""Hello Mr.Singhania! Congratulations!" he heard a firm neat and elegant voice probably some 50's"Yea thank you! BUt may I know whose speaking?? And wats your congratulations for??""Wow! I thought you'd never forget me in your life""Sorry??" asked Rey now irritated."Well son this is Keshav Kundra calling from Kundra assosciates. Hope you remember me now!" the person said with a smirk.Rey fisted his palm in anger the moment he heard his name. His eyes were turning blood red. He gritted his teeth in anger. "Your bloody..." he murmured under his breath."Hmm...should confess angry young man! Ek baar jo galthi ki aur buri tarah se toot gaya aur phirse vahi galthi!Wow... you have seriously got guts!" he chuckled."Shut up! Better don't mess with me again""hey listen! Better back off frm this deal. Mere saath compete karke don't make a fool of yourself. Waise tumhe to patha hai mei apne jeet ke liye kuch bhi karunga. KUCH BHI..." "Aur ab tumari shaadi bhi ho chuki hai. Ab tumari responsibilty aur bad chuki hai.. You better take care of yourself" he said with threat filled in his voice and hung up the call.Rey threw the mobile on the floor. He was sweating. He looked outside. He saw Taani smiling, jumping in joy hugging Shivam marking their victory.He sat down on the floor hiding his face between his legs."You are a Loser bloody looser! Tumhe koi bhi easily fool kar saktha hai. You are a rich, brainless idiot!" The words kept ringing on his ears. He went to the restroom and washed his face. He went down to the basket ball court."Hey REY!" said Sharon."Haan man its so exciting! Bahot dino baad kel rahe hain aisa!" said Swayam wiping his face.Rey looked at Taani. She remembered how she was resting her head on his chest and to add fire the previous night incident where they were almost about to kiss made her very difficult to face him. She forced a smile and"I'll bring some coffee" and quickly moved away from there.He just passed her a blank expression. Now she was ignoring him?? couldn't understand her weird behaviour but brushed his thoughts aside when he heard Swayam calling him."Dude come lets continue!"he said throwing the ball at Rey. He took the ball and reached the ground.Rey couln't focus on the game and he missed all the basket. Soon they took a break and Swayam went near Rey..."Are you ok??""Yea I will be Swayam" he said forcing a smile on his face but Swayam wasn't convinced.Soon Taani reached there"Good morning! coffee!!" she said with a smile."Thank you!" he said and walked away from there. She saw him walking lifeless. There she was adoring every moment of the previous night's encounter and here she couldn't find any emotions on his face. She was disappointed."Is everything alright??" She turned back hearing Shivam's voice."Yea!" she smiled."Atleast I hope so!" she murmured to herself which Shivam heard.He looked at Taani's retreating back with his eyebrows raised.Soon at the living room,"Hey Shivam!Good to see you!" said Vicky and the guys one by one hugged him and welcomed him."Mee too" he said.The gang had their breakfast and were held up in their own conversation. Taani's face frequently searched for Rey but he wasn't visible to her. Rather Swayam and Rey were seriously held up in some conversation in the rehersal hall.Suddenly Shivam's mobile rang and he excused himself. After a few minutes, he came in running."TAANIII..." he shouted.She was startled and shouted.."Hey is everything alright??"But before he could say something he pulled her for a tight hug..."Whoa...Am not able to breathe"'Taani guess what?? I have got a very big opportunity to perform in a concert at Korea. Man this is a very big break for me...""Really wow! I know you will do it one day!" she jumped in joy."THANK YOU SOOO MUCH TAANI...Pata hai its like my dream come true! Mei bahot kush hoon. And its all because of you!" he said giving her a side hug.The gang looked at the duo with confusion."Shivam are we missing something??" asked Sharon."You know what Sharon? Agar Taani nahi hoti tho mei kisi private organisation mei ek normal employee hotha! Par it was taani who gave me the guts to go behind my passion. Thank you soo much Taani..""I still remember our first concert where you gifted me the guitar. Thank you so much Taani.NO one believed me other than you. Agar uss din mere saath tum nahi hoth tho shaayad aaj mei kabhi yeh achieve nahi kar patha."Thank you Taani!You are the bestbuddy to have" "Buddies hai kis kaam ki??" she said and pulled him for a hug.On the other hand gang felt something pierce their heart. She was exactly like Rey. rey always asked them to go behind their dreams. And when Rey himself didn't do it and left them suddenly,they didn't have the guts the take a risk. And today everyone except for Swarey were in a different profesion. Ofcourse now they were settled financially but they always felt something lost.They came out of their trance when Shivam shouted..."guys I have to start tomo afternoon to Mumbai...So party at my place today night. I promise a very good dinner and a perfect camp fire! What say??" he asked his tone filled with enthusiasm."haan yaar! Its been so long since we have been here. How did we forget camp fire??" asked Rinni!"Yea!" agreed the guys."guys party ka theme hai "Whose HOT??" So I'm leaving to make arrangements see you guys." he said and took his leave.That evening everyone were getting ready. The girls were getting ready at Taani's room."Taani tum kya pehne wali ho??" asked Simmi."Sari!" she said smiling picking out a white one."What??" asked the girls."Guys you know what?? Sari is the only dress which can make you look more hot and sexy" she said winking."Whoa..." shouted Vishaka, Rinni, Simmi and Neha."Waise lagtha hai aaj kuch aur irada hai. Make sure itni hot na lage ki Rey handle na kar paaye" she said winking at her. She came out wearing a backless blouse and her sari adored her petite figure neatly.mmm... agreed the girls."Waise trailer tho hum dekh chuke hain, kise pata ab picture deknhe ka bhi mauka mile" commented Simmi surcastically pointing out the last night incident. "Kuch bhi?? Waise I don't wear saree's much so I thought!" she said. her cheeks were completely red now.Soon they went down. rey was completely held up in his world. His past which had just started healing him once showed his evil face the moment Rey received the phone call. Worry,Anger, Disgust, Failure! He was going through all of them together. taani instanly made out that he was upset over something. "Reyaansh is everything ok??" she asked him while moving out of their farm house."Yea!" he said and moved ahead.He was so held up in his thoughts that he didn't even notice how gorgeous she looked in saree.Soon they reached Shivam's place."Congratulations Shivam" Rey wished Shivam."Thanks yaar!"he moved away from there and was held up insome conversation. He looked tensed."Reyaansh are you sure you are OK??" she asked him again. "Yea I am! Just chuck it Taani. Just go and enjoy." he said completely frustrated.She looked at him directly in his eyes. This time tears did not take its place. Probably she was tired of this. She should have already guessed it. He would never trust her with anything!.He looked at her. All that he could find was clear disappointment on her face. She had a lump on her throat. But she was Taani. She wouldn't break that easily infront of him. "Woh Taa.."But she moved away before he could complete."shit!" he banged the wall in frustration.She tried to convince herself. "He wants me to enjoy! Okay! If he doesn't wants to share it with me that's OK! Even I don't care. Aaj mera dost ke liye bahot bada din hai. Atleast he needs me! I have to be with him" she cleared her face and plastered a smile.Shivam had arranged a wonderful camp fire. They all settled around the fire and had masti. Taani went and sat next to Shivam. Sharon sat next to her followed by Swayam. Rey sat exactly opposite to Taani."hey dude! Chalo ab kuch acha sunao na!"said Bharat "Guys aaj mei nahi Taani perform karege!" he declared.She looked at him with her eyebrows raised..."Nahi Shivam mera moo..." "Mei kuch nahi sunnene wala. Just go on" he said and started fixing his guitar.He looked at her. She was yet to start."Come on Taani! You will feel better!" he said holding her hands in She smiled and looked at him. Rey looked at the duo. Somewhere or something pierced his heart.She closed her eyes and took in some fresh air. She closed her eyes..Tum sach mei moon se zyaada pretty lag rahi ho..Yea I am! Just chuck it Taani. Just go and enjoy." he said completely frustrated."Kuch teek nahi hoga Taani! Kuch bhi nahi. Please don't ask me anything for God sake Dammit". He shook her shoulders tightening the grip. R..RE..R sh.. he warned her and pulled her closer and rolled over her on the bed.She opened her eyes. Tears covered her eyes making Rey's image blur in front of her.O Re Manwa Tu To Bawra HaiShe sang looking at sky!Tu Hi Jaane Tu Kya Sochta HaiShe turned her head towards Sharon but her eyes met Rey's Tu Hi Jaane Tu Kya Sochta Hai BawareKyun Dikhaye Sapne Tu Sote JaagteJo Barsein Sapne Boond BoondShe closed her eyes and soon her tear droplet fell on the ground.Nainon Ko Moond Moond Jo Barsein Sapne Boond BoondNainon Ko Moond Moond She looked at Shivam and found placed her hands on his shouldersKaise Main Chaloon Dekh Na SakoonAnjaane Raastethe moment she said Anjaane raaste! Swayam, Sharon, rey and Shivam looked at her. Shivam placed a reassuring smile and fastened his strings on the guitar filling the air with sweet music. His voice along with his tune pulled everyone there into some magical trance. He sang,Goonja Sa Hai Koi Ektara IktaraGoonja Sa Hai Koi EktaraGoonja Sa Hai Koi Ektara IktaraGoonja Sa Hai Koi EktaraShe held her shoulders with both her hands to prevent the cold from pierceng her.Sun Rahi Hoon Sudhbudh Kho KeKoi Main Kahani She looked at SharonPuri Kahani Hai Kya Kisi Hai PataHer eyes unknowingly met Rey's and she sangMain To Kisiki Ho Ke Yeh Bhi Na JaaniRuth Hai Yeh Do Pal Ki Ya Rahegi SadaShivam sang, looking at TaaniKise Hai Pata, Kise Hai PataThe music and the atmosphere was so soothing that the couples had started slow couple dance.She stood up moved towards Amar and Rinni,Jo Barsein Sapne Boond BoondNainon Ko Moond Moond Nainon Ko Moond Moond She placed her hands on Neha's shoulders who was dancing with VickyJo Barsein Sapne Boond BoondNainon Ko Moond Moond She moved towards SwaronKaise Main Chaloon Dekh Na SakoonShe was next to Rey now and the moment her eyes met his, she blurtedAnjaane RaasteTaani and Rey starred at each other for a moment while the space was filled with the magical spell,Goonja Sa Hai Koi Ektara IktaraGoonja Sa Hai Koi EktaraGoonja Sa Hai Koi Ektara IktaraGoonja Sa Hai Koi EktaraShe moved away from there. Soon it started raining and everyine rushed in.."Thank God bach gaye!!" said Neha."warna tera makeup ka kya hota??" commented Neil and everyone laughed."Waise Taani kahan hai??" asked Rey."Dude baarish ho rahi hai!!" said Shivam"Haan tho??" asked Rey."Tho matlab?? Dude baarish ho rahi hai.. Its so obvious voh bahar hogi and koi usse andar nahi le aa saktha" said Shivam.Rey looked at him.He went out in the rain and found taani taking the fresh water droplets in. She closed her eyes and just felt the moment. Only then did he notice her wearing saari. The white saari clinged to her petite figure now making her more beautiful. he forgot that he was getting wet and just starred at her.He went near her. The moment she felt him near her she turned around and looked at him. He moved forward while she moved backwards. He took another step forwards while she took the corresponding step backward."Taani sambalke..""Ouch.." she forcely hit her toe on the resting chair nearby and got hurt. Her toe started bleeding and her leg was twisted and she winced in pain. "Wait! Pehle andar chalte hain. Phir first aid karenge.." he said.She tried to move but she realized that she couldn't even move.Slowly he went even closer and in no time he lifted her.Their eyes met. he held her petite figure safely in her arms not having the desire to show her beauty to the rest of the world. "guys I bet he won't be able to bring back Taani...I mean ham sab college se try kar rahe hai yaar??" said shivam when Vicky found Neil's mouth wide open. He turned to that direction and soon everyone looked at that sight. Ther saw Rey carrying Taani in his arms and both of them were damn wet!"Lagtha hai sach mei poora picture dekne ko milega" blurted Rinni while the girls passed her a warning look."She's hurt! Dude dressing room kahan hai???" he asked Shivam."Upar!""Okay!"He took her upstairs and made her safely sit on the bed.He held her feet and suddenly twisted it."Ouch!..." she held his shoulders firmly out of pain. They were held in a eyelock. Soon she felt her pain was no more and removed her hands from his shoulders. There was awkward silence. He took the first aid box and was about to dress her wound when,"Its Ok Reyaansh!" she stopped him. "par taani..."Reyansh am OK! Just chuck it.I'll manage and I need to change" she said with anger filled in her voice and her eyes no more met his.He left the first aid box and moved out frustrated.
