Next day
Aaj senior batch ki passing out parade hoti hai toh uske liye Naina aur Aalekh apni offical OTA's cadet uniform mein ready hote hain... uske baad wo dono last time sari preprations check karte hain
Naina : alright guys, sab kuch perfect hai... lekin phir hame guests ko assist karna padega, taki unhe koi problem na ho.... isliye aap sab ko passing out course ke family members ke sitting area mein duty deni hogi (passing a chart to them) isme kise kahan duty deni hai yeh sab marked hai, check kar lijiye or agar kisiko koi problem ho toh abhi bata dijiye.... uske baad main & alekh dusre area mein duty dene ja rahe hain
Their batchmates : koi problem nahi hai naina
Naina : ok... agar koi bhi issue ho, toh fauran mujhe ya Aalekh ko inform kar dena... hum dono chief guest & other officers ke sitting area mein milenge, aur apni duty ache se dena.... all the best
Their batchmates : thank you
Uske baad sabhi cadets apne assigned places par duty karne chale jate hai... Aalekh aur Naina bhi chief guest area ki taraf jane lagte hain
Naina: I just hope ki sab ache se nipat jaye aalekh... mujhe na bahut tension ho rahi hai
Aalekh : tu chinta mat kar Naina, sab ache se ho jayega... aur ab apna mind fresh kar, phir apni duty karne chalte hain
Naina: hmm (do min. eyes close karke deep breaths leti hai) ab thik hai, chal
Uske baad wo dono chief guest aur baki senior officers ke sitting area mein jakar khade ho jate hai, agar wahan kisi officer ya unke family members ko koi help chahiye hoti hai... toh kar dete hain, otherwise seedhe khade rehte hain
Aise hi seniors ki passing out parade & pipping ceremony (where parents uncover the stars, from their ward's shoulders) complete ho jati hai
Uske baad sabhi guests lunch karne keliye mess mein jate hain
Naina : ab tu jakar apne dad se mil le Aalekh, phir sir ko wapas delhi keliye nikalna hoga na
Aalekh : nahi, tu yahan akeli sab kuch kaise manage karegi.... main guests ke jane tak rukta hoon, uske baad dad se milne chala jaunga
Naina : nahi, tu abhi ja... waise bhi ab koi khas kaam nahi hai, bas army ball ki preparations dekhni hain wo main khud dekh lungi.... tu jakar apne dad ke sath time spend kar
Aalekh : par
Naina (interrupts him) : par war kuch nahin... maine bol diya toh matlab wo kar Aalekh, mujhe usme koi argument nahi chahiye
Aalekh : ok meri maa, ja raha hoon... par agar koi bhi kaam ho, toh mujhe fauran bula lena
Naina : ok
Uske baad Aalekh apne dad se milne, Major General Randhawa ke office mein jata hai aur wahan Rajveer pehle se maujud hota hai
Aalekh: hey dad, kaise hain aap... aur ghar pe baki sab kaise hain?
Arjun: na beta, lagta hai yahan aakar tu apne sare sanskar bhul gaya hai.... mera ashirwad lene ki bajaye, seedha mujhe angrejo ki tarah greet kar raha hai... bas ab yahi dekhna baki reh gaya tha
Aalekh : oh ho dad, aap na mom ke sath reh rehkar unke jaise dramatic bante ja rahe ho... thoda aise mamlo mein aap unse dur raha kariye
Arjun : excuse me, tu mujhe apni legally wedded wife se dur rehne keliye keh raha hai
Rajveer : dad relax, Chote bas majak kar rahe hain (to Aalekh) aur Chote aap, jaldi se dad ka ashirwad lijiye
Aalekh : ok bhai
After that Aalekh touches Arjun's feet
Arjun 😏 : hmm, khush reh... waise tu akela aaya hai, meri Bahu ko sath nahi lekar aaya
Aalekh (confused) : Bahu ?
Arjun : haan, wo abhi mere yaar ne bataya ki teri koi gf hai.... kya naam bataya tha isne
MG: Cadet Naina Singh Ahluwalia
Major General ki baat sunte hi Aalekh Rajveer ki taraf dekhta hai aur uske chehre pe gusse ko dekh dar jata hai.
Aalekh (pov): dad main hi mila tha aapko bali ka bakra banane ko. Mujhe khush toh dekh nhi sakte aap. Aur jo raita faila rahe ho uski wajah se bhai mera murder karne se pehle sochege bhi nhi. Bhai ka face dekh ke yahi lag raha hai ki bakra toh halal hoke rahe ga
Yeh sunkar Rajveer jealous hone lagta hai ki aise - kaise uske dad uski Naina ko Aalekh ki girlfriend bol sakte hain
Arjun : haan wahin... toh kahan hai teri girlfriend Aalekh ?
Aalekh (pov): wo jangli billi aur meri girlfriend agar usse ye pata chala toh bhai se pehle toh wo meri jaan le legi.
Rajveer (in jealousy) : dad, wo chote ki girlfriend nahi hain... infact Chote toh unhe apni behan maante hain
Arjun😯 : kya,yeh kaise ho sakta hai... mujhe toh wo hamari hone wali bahu ke taur par bahut pasand aayi thi... socha tha ki badi bahu naseeb mein nahi hai toh kya hua, choti se kaam chala lenge.... par tune uspar bhi paani pher diya Aalekh
Aalekh while making puppy signals his father: kyu mujhe marne ka pura itjam kar rahe the dad aap achha lagega kya ki ki kal newspaper main headlines aaye ki bare bhai ne ki apne chote bhai ki hatya, pyaar bana Aalekh Singh Shekhawat ki mout ki wajah.
Rajveer (possessively) : dad, aap yeh baar- baar Naina aur Aalekh ko kyun connect kar rahe hai... Naina sirf aur sirf meri hai, kyuki main unse pyaar karta hoon and please stop shipping them together... mujhe yeh sab acha nahi lag raha
Arjun : acha beta ji, toh aap hame yeh sab kab batane wale the ki aapko kisi se pyaar ho gaya hai ?
Rajveer (starts stammering listening his dad's question) : wo... dad... main
Apne bhai ki aisi halat dekh, Aalekh unki help karne keliye aage aata hai
Aalekh : wo actually dad... bhai ko bhi kuch din pehle hi apni feelings realise hui hain, isliye humne socha ki aapko aur mom ko ek sath OTA aane par sab bata denge lekin aap mom ko lekar hi nahi aaye... waise dad, aapko yeh sab pata kaise chala?
Arjun: mere yaar ne bataya, aur wo bhi aaj nahi balki 5 mahine pehle
Rajveer : kya?? lekin tab toh mujhe bhi yeh nahi pata tha ki main Naina keliye kya feel karta hoon, toh phir Uncle ne kaise bataya aapko?
Aalekh : shuruwat se aapki harkatein dekhkar koi bhi yeh bata sakta hai ki, aap Naina keliye kuch feel karte hain bhai
MG : exactly
Rajveer: agar aap dono ne yeh notice kiya hai... iska matlab baki sabko bhi meri naina keliye jo feelings hain wo dikhai deti hongi
Aalekh : aisa nahi hai bhai, hame toh yeh sab isliye pata chala kyunki hum aapko ache se jante hai... aur humne aapke behaviour mein aaye changes ko notice kiya hai, lekin baki sab toh aapke bare mein kuch nahi jante na toh unhe kuch pata nahi chala hoga
Arjun: exactly Veer, aur ab aap is dar ki wajah se apni feelings ko surpress mat kar lena please kyunki aap kuch galat nahi kar rahe hain... bas kabhi apni feelings ko Naina ki training ke beech mat aane dena
Rajveer: ji dad
Arjun : aur apni mom ki tension mat lena, unhe sab pata hai aur wo apne ladle keliye bahut khush hain.... aur keval aapki mom hi nahi balki ghar mein baki sab bahut khush hai, yeh jankar ki finally aapki life mein koi ladki aa gayi hai
Aalekh : wo toh honge hi na... aakhir kab se sab, bhai ki shaadi ke piche jo pade hain dad
Arjun: hmm, yeh toh hai... waise meri hone wali bahu hai kahan, koi mujhe bhi toh milwaye unse
MG : main kisi orderly ko bhejta hoon, unhe yahan bulane keliye
Arjun: Gunny & Shalini ko bhi bulana, aakhir unhe bhi toh congratulate karna hai
MG : ok
After that Major General Randhawa asks an orderly to call Gunny, Shalini and Naina there
Aalekh : dad please, be careful while talking to naina... wo jangli billi badi hi chalu hai, agar koi bhi gadbad hui toh jhat se pakad legi... aur phir mera usse apni bhabhi banane ka mission, hamesha keliye adhura reh jayega
Arjun : chal nikal apne baap ko mat sikha ki kya karna chahiye mujhe.
Aalekh : par dad
Arjun: jab iss matter main Veer ki koye baat nhi sunne wala toh tune ye kaise soch liya ki main teri baat sunuga
But he's interrupted by a knock on the door
MG : come in
Naina comes inside with Gunny and Shalini
Naina (salutes her seniors) : jai hind sir... aapne bulaya?
MG: jai hind cadet & at ease... aapko yahan Arjun ne bulaya hai, wo apni badi ba (both brothers cleared their throat to stop him) I mean, wo apne bete ki best friend se milna chahte hain
Naina 🤔 : mujhse, lekin kyun?
Arjun: wo beta, Aalekh hamesha aapki baatein karta hai toh maine socha kyu na unki cute si friend se mil liya jaye... waise yeh nalayak sahi kehta hai, aap sach mein angel jaisi hi lagti hain
Naina (awkwardly) : well thanks for the compliment sir
Arjun : aap mujhe unofficially Uncle bula sakti hain beta, kyuki aap mere liye meri beti jaisi hain
Aalekh(murmured) : dekho toh Naina se yeh kitni sweetly baat kar rahe hai, agar inka bas chale toh yeh direct isse papa hi bulwa lein
Rajveer Aalekh ki kahi huyi baat sun leta hai.
Rajveer whispered: dhire bol Chote warna ham dono ki band baj jayegi agar Naina ne ye sun liya toh.
Aalekh: really bhai aap is jangli billi se dar rahe ho.
Rajveer: ye toh universal rule hai har husband apne hone wali wife se darta hi hai chahe wo real life main kitna bhi strict ya strong ho.
Aalekh Rajveer ki baat sun ke shock 🤯 ko jata hai.
Naina : sorry to say sir, but I can't call you uncle... kyuki main nahi chahti ki kal ko koi bhi yeh kahe ki main Aalekh ki dosti ka fayda uthakar apne matlab keliye aapse rishta jod rahi hoon
Arjun : koi aisa nahi kahega beta, aur aap sab ke saamne mujhe sir keh kar bulana & akele mein Uncle... you see, aapki problem solved
Naina (still hesitant about it) : lekin phir bhi sir
Aalekh : lekin wekin kuch nahi Naina, ab maan bhi ja dad ki baat.... dekh wo kitni pyaar se keh rahe hain, aur agar tune mana kar diya toh dad naraz ho jayenge
Yeh kehkar Aalekh ne brahmastra chala diya tha, kyuki yeh naina ki sabse badi kamjori hoti hai ki wo kisi ko dukhi nahi dekh sakti thi
Naina (finally agreed) : ok, main inhe uncle bulaungi par meri ek shart hai
Arjun: kaisi shart beta ?
Naina : yahi ki, aap mujhe kabhi koi favour nahi karenge chahe kaisi bhi situation ho... agar aapko meri shart manzur hai tabhi main aapko Uncle bulaungi, warna nahi
Arjun yeh shart sunkar bahut khush hota hai, kyunki ab usse yeh yakeen ho gaya tha ki Naina sabse alag hai... aur wo Rajveer keliye ek perfect life partner sabit ho sakti hain
Arjun : ok beta, mujhe aapki shart manzur hai
Naina 😊 : phir thik hai, main aapko Uncle bulaungi... yeah ! ab mere two two Uncles hain
Arjun: dusra kaun?
MG : main, aur kaun... maine bhi abhi kuch din pehle hi Naina se dosti ki hai, aur ab hum sath noodles party karte hain
Arjun: tu aur noodles 🍜 party ye kaise ho gya.
Naina: wo baat ye hai na Uncle (Arjun) main kuch din pehle Gunny bhai ke quarter main gyi thi kyuki mujhe mess ka khana pasand nhi aaya tha toh us time quarter main koye nhi tha isliye main koye nhi tha toh main kitchen main noodles 🍜 banane cahli gyi. Aur jab main noodles leke living room aarahi thi toh Uncle quarter main aarahe the pehle toh main dar gyi thi but himat karke main Uncle se noodles khane ke liye pucha aur unhone haa kar di. Aur uske baad se ham friends ban gye jab bhi main noodles banati hu toh main aur Uncle saath main khate hai.
Arjun: is baar toh ye possible bhi hai par next main bhi tum dono ko noodles 🍜 party join karuga.
Aalekh (over dramatically) : kya... iska matlab tu mujhe bhul gayi Naina, apne best buddy ko
Naina : aisa nahi hai Aalu, tu hamesha mera best buddy aur partner in crime rahega... wo toh Uncle sad na ho isliye maine unse friendship kar li
Aalekh : then ok... warna main mere best buddy ko kisike sath share nahi kar sakta
Rajveer sabko Naina se itni freely baat karte dekh jealous feel karne lagta hai, kyunki wo chah kar bhi Naina se apne shy & reserved nature ki wajah se baat nahi kar pa raha tha, isliye wo yeh sab rokne ki koshish karta hai
Rajveer: aap sabki jankari keliye bata doon ki main, Gunny & Dr. Shalini bhi yahin hai.... jinhe aap sab janbhujkar ignore kar rahe hain
Gunny: exactly
Arjun: arey nahi, hum kahan ignore kar rahe hai aap logon ko (to Gunny and Shalini) arey main aap dono ko congratulate karna toh bhul gaya... congrats soon to be mumma - papa
Both : thank you uncle
Uske baad sabhi thodi der randomly baatein karte hain, & phir Rajveer ke Dad wapas chale jate hai... unke jane ke baad Aalekh & Naina army ball ki preparations dekhne chale jate hain
********************************
Ball ki sari preparations check karne ke baad Naina ke bahar jane lagti hai ki Aalekh usse rok leta hai
Aalekh: ab tu kahan ja rahi hai ?
Naina: room mein... tujhe toh pata hai na ki mujhe parties jayda pasand nahi hain
Aalekh : acha thik hai, ja... aur sun, kuch kha lena... tune aaj lunch bhi skip kar diya tha
Naina : ok
Naina phir wahan se direct apne room mein jane ki bajaye, thodi der ground mein ek bench par baith jati hai
Rajveer jo wahan se ja raha hota hai, wo usse akela baitha dekh uske paas jata hai
Rajveer : cadet ahluwalia, aap yahan kya kar rahi hain... aapko toh is waqt ball mein hona chahiye tha
Naina : wo sir actually, mujhe parties jayda pasand nahi hai bas isliye... par aap ball mein kyun nahi gaye ?
Rajveer (while sitting next to naina) : kyunki aapki tarah mujhe bhi parties pasand nahi hain, waise aapne khana khaya ?
Naina : nahi sir, abhi kahan... dinner toh army ball ke baad serve hoga na
Rajveer : acha, toh chaliye phir
Naina : kahan ?
Rajveer : arey mere sath bahar dinner karne, kyun aaj bhukhe rehne ka plan hai kya aapka.... I'm sure, aapne lunch bhi nahi kiya hoga
Naina : ji sir, par aapko kaise pata ?
Rajveer: wo bas guess kiya... chaliye ab jayda der mat kariye, aur jaldi se apni dress change karke aaiye, phir bahar dinner karne chalte hain
Naina: lekin sir hum cadets ko week days mein, bahar jana allowed nahi hai
Rajveer : abhi aapka mid term break chal raha hai na, toh koi restrictions nahi hai... aap mere sath bahar chal sakti hain, aur agar koi kuch kahega toh main sambhal lunga
Naina (excitedly) : phir thik hai, main abhi apni dress change karke aayi
Naina bahar jane keliye itni excited hoti hai ki wo 5 min. ke andar apni dress change karke aa jati hai
Naina : chaliye sir, I'm ready
Rajveer turned & skipped his heartbeat looking at his love, standing in front of him in navy blue color kurti paired with white leggings
Rajveer (pov) : you will kill me one day with your simplicity my love
Naina : sir, kahan kho gaye aap... ab chaliye na please
Rajveer : kahin nahi... chaliye ab, car mein baithiye
Naina : ji
