Rishtey Dil Ke

Part 14

Naveen- (smirkingly) Aur usse aisa banaya kisne... Tune hi na... Toh Ab bhugat....

Raj got clean bold on this but still managed to ask.
Raj- (nervously) Yaar! Mai toh bas 3 saal se missing hoon par tu... Tu toh pure 5 saal se sabko dhokha de raha hai... Teri toh jamkar dhulai honi chahiye.... Wo bhi Dhobi Ghat style me.....

Naveen- Jaise tune ki thi... jab tu mila tha... (Raj smiled sheepishly remembering that incident) Par yaha aisa kuch nahi hoga...

Raj- (with knitted brows) Kyun?

Nav- (sighing) Wo kya na... Ye pehli baar nahi jab meri behen mujhse naraz ho... Bachpan se hi har dusre din mujhse naraz ho jati thi... Aur aise hi baat karna band kar deti... In short full ignore karti thi....

Raj- (desperately) Toh tu usse kaise manata tha?

Nav- (leaned towards him) Tujhe jana'ne ki badi jaldi hai... (Raj glared him) ok... Kuch khaas nahi... Bas Naina ki pasand ka kuch bhi usse de do wo khush ho jati hai...

Raj- (surprisingly) Achha?... Toh iss baar kya laya hai tu uske liye?

Nav- (teasingly) Dekhna chahte hai...? (Raj nods in yes) toh chal....

He started dragging Raj along with him.
Raj- (confusingly) Aree par kahan? Luggages toh Chaubey ke hi pass reh gaye....

Nav- Ofho! Tu chal toh sahi....

Naveen made Raj stand in front of the mirror.
Nav- Ye dekh (pointing towards his reflection) iss baar ye laaya hoon main aapni gudiya ke liye... Mujhe toh bahut pasand hai meri Naina ke liye..... Tujhe kaisa laga?

Raj understood his words & started to blush.

Nav- (teasingly) Dekh toh sahi... Kaise blush bhi karta hai ye... Hayee! Naina mana hi nahi kar payegi mere gift ko... Haina??

Raj- Matlab mai bali ka bakra...?

Nav- (grinning) Kya lagta hai tujhe?

Raj- (scratching his head) Kuch nahi ho sakta tera... Tu aise hi sahi hai... Aise hi haste- muskurate, sabko pareshan karte reh... Achha lagta hai... Hamesha aise hi rahna... Maine tujhe bahut miss kiya... Yaar!

& hugged him tightly, Naveen too hugged him back.
Nav- (emotionally) Maine bhi nahi socha tha ki... Ek din sab kuch normal ho jayega... Hum wapas pure samaan ke sath KMA me honge... BC hume gale lagayega.... Aur wo bhi itna emotional ho kar...

Broke the hug, looked at each other & started to laugh.
Raj- Hmm... Baat toh sahi keh raha hai tu... Jin haalat me hum wapas mile the... Maine ye imagine bhi nahi kiya tha ki sab kuch kabhi normal bhi ho sakta hai... Hum phir se dost baan sakte hai... Par dekho aaj hum ek baar phir se sath hai...

Nav- Exactly! That's what I'm saying... Aree aapni life me jab itna kuch unexpected ho sakta hai... Toh sab kuch thik bhi ho sakta haina... Tujhe aisa nahi lagta?

Raj- (sarcastically) You know what... Agar tu ye baate 2-3 saal pehle mujhse karta na toh mai... Mai tujhe wapas hospital me admit karwa deta...

Nav- (mockingly) 2-3 saal pehle... Huh! Janab agar aap bhul gaye toh aapko yaad dila du ki aap tab iss kadar naraaz the ki mujhse baatein karna toh durr aap mujhe dekhte bhi nahi the.... Yaad hai ki bhul gaye?

Raj- (bitting his tongue) Ha toh thik haina... Ho gayi thi galti uss time... Par ab lagta hai ki life me sirf bura hi nahi... achha bhi ho sakta hai... Haina?
