Mini: Oh my God! Yes! I too felt that...
He looked behind again but found no one.
Mini: I think we should check...
Neil: What? Ehm... Alright yes.. Let's check...
The started moving around the house but found no one...
Mini: Neil Oberoi I think tum zyada soch rahe ho... Koi nahi hai sirf tumhara dar hai
Neil: But you too felt that...
Mini: It must be the curtain... Koi nahi hai... Chill.. Aao movie resume kare....
Neil: 😐 You love these ghosty faces... Just look at him... or her... whatever it is...
Mini: Tum chup chap movie dekho...
He was still reluctant and looked behind again and again...
Mini: Neil... Koi bhi nahi hai just relax....
They finished the movie and slept.
The next day, they were working at the restaurant when suddenly a few people came to protest. They both went outside to settle things...
Mini: Excuse me! Yeh kya ho raha hai?
Person 1: Oh madam yeh jagah humari hai... Idhar humare purwaj rehte the...
Neil: Lekin ab yeh jagah legally humari hai
Person 2: Hum yeh sab kagzati cheezein nahi maante...
Person 3: Yahaan par police bhi humari marzi se chalti hai... Hum yeh sab tod denge bata rahe hai!
After this warning they all left. They worked the whole day and came back home at night. Neil noticed her tensed face. She was pretending to be fine but he knew that she was not.
Neil: What is it? What happened?
Mini: What?
Neil: Kya hua hai tumhe?
Mini: Mujhe toh kuch bhi nahi hua... (she walked around the room with tensed face)
Neil: Mini... Just sit here... (he made her sit on the couch)
Mini: What?
Neil: Tum batao?
Mini: Are yaar kuch nahi hua...
He just looked at her... She averted her eyes from him...
Mini: Yaar I am tensed about the protest... Pata nahi kya hoga... Its not giving me a good vibe...
Neil: Mini... Nothing's gonna happen... Just relax... and you know technically we don't need to be tensed.... It should be them who should be tensed...
Mini: Aur aisa kyu?
Neil: Shayad unhe pata nahi hai but humare paas ek karate black belt hai and uske anger issues... They won't survive..
She just looked at him...
Mini: Yaar yeh mazak ka time nahi hai... It's a serious matter what if....
Neil: What if they are just doing this because we live in a so called 'haunted house' Mini, I know its serious and your overthinking mind is tensed but we will sort it out together... Humne itni mehnat se restaurant banaya hai aise hi koi bhi tod ke nahi ja sakta...
Mini: Yes!
Neil: You go freshen up... I'll make the dinner...
The ate foot and slept. In the middle of the night, Mini heard a loud but suppressed voice of a man singing a sad song.
Maine Samjha Tha Ke Tu Hai,
Toh Darakhshaan Hai Hayaat
Tera Gham Hai To,
Gham-E Dahr Ka Jhagda Kya Hai
Teri Soorat Se Hai,
Aalam mein Bahaaron Ko Sabaat
Teri Aankhon Ke Siva,
Duniya Mein Rakkha Kya Hai
Teri Aankhon Ke Siva,
Duniya Mein Rakkha Kya Hai
Tu Jo Mil Jaaye To,
Taqdeer Nigoon Ho Jaaye
Yoon Na Tha Main Ne Faqat,
Chaaha Tha Yoon Ho Jaaye
She was irritated by the super sad lyrics.
Mini: (in sleep) Just stop singing Neil Oberoi please!
Subconsciously her hand came flying on his face... Her wedding bangles hurting his face. He woke up with a jerk.
Neil: What are you doing??!!!!!!!!
She woke up...
Mini: What are YOU doing idiot?! Itni raat ko gaa rahe ho... Woh bhi itne sad lyrics... Pata nahi kya "Chaaha tha yun ho jaye" Mai kuch kehti hun tumhe? Humare beech mein koi problem hai? Hai toh batao... Abhi discuss kar lete hai....
Neil: Mini... Mai nahi gaa raha tha... I was sleeping bahut aaram se... Infact you woke me up... Tumhara chuda[wedding bangles] mere muh par laga hai... Tum yeh sab utaar ke kyu nahi soti?
Mini: Kyu utaru? Meri shaadi ka chuda hai...
Neil: Ofcourse! Aur jisse shaadi hui hai uska chehra kharab kar do mar mar ke...
Mini: Ok fine... Galti se lag gaya.... ab mai kya karti batao? Tum itni zor zor se gaa rahe the....
Neil: I was not singing Mini! It's 3 AM! Mujhe apni neend bahot pyari hai...
Mini: Stop lying Neil Oberoi... You think you'll scare me with this?
Neil:😒
Mini: It was not you?
Neil: No!
He lay down on the bed and covered himself with the blanket... She looked at him rather scared at the thought of a man singing in a bad spooky voice at 3 AM....
Mini: Oh my goodness! Matarani! Kahin yeh ghost wali story sahi mein sach toh nahi? Agar woh ghost Neil ko utha ke le gaya toh what am I going to do?!!
He peeped at her taking off the blanket.
Mini: (looking at him) What?
He chuckled at her innocence.
Neil: (opened his arms) Come here...
Mini: Neil mujhe doubt ho raha hai... Shayad yeh ghost wali story....
Neil: Mini... Relax... Koi nahi hai... Maybe it was just a dream...
Mini: It was definitely not a dream.
Neil: Ok fine... We will discuss this tomorrow.... Abhi so jayein madam please... Apne bechare rasoiyye par thoda rehem khao... Kal bahut kaam hai...
Mini: Fine... Dramebaaz
Who is the singer?
