Asha: Sona!!
Sona: Let me sleep for 5 minutes more maa ... It's Sunday
Asha: Wake up Shona
Sona: 5 minutes only
Asha sat besides Sona & slowly started tickling her
Asha: Sona ...
Sona didn't even stir.
Asha: Kumbhkaran ... Sona wake up shake up open your chunni munni eyes
Sona: You can't keep calm?
Asha: No I CAN'T KEEP CALM COZ IT'S MY DAUGHTERS BIRTHDAY
Sona opened her eyes finally.
Asha: Happy birthday Sona
Sona: Happy mom's day maa & happy dad's day papa
Asha: You remember that your father & I wished each other like that on your birthday
Sona: Why won't I? It's my birthday but this day marks your parenthood too. I love you maa
Asha: I love you too meri amma ... Get up there's a surprise for you
Asha literally dragged Sona out of her room & brought her to the hall ... It was filled with balloons of every color possible. There were 3 balloons that were moving too much
Sona: Who's there?
The balloons went aside & Jatin, Vicky & Elena were standing there. They began singing
Happy birthday to you ...
Happy birthday to you ...
Happy birthday ... Happy birthday ...
Happy birthday to you
Sona: Thanks everyone
Elena: We have another surprise for you
Another walking balloon came towards Sona even before the person could remove the balloon covering his face... Sona ran & jumped to hug that person
Sona: Deeeeeeev!! Where were you? Why weren't you picking up my phone? How are you now? When will you join school again?
Dev: Shaant Kolkata express Shaant
Elena: Ahem! Ahem! ... Sona we are still standing here ... stop your PDA
Sona: PDA?
Elena: Public Display of Affection
Sona realized that she was still hugging Dev. In embarrassment she had to break the hug reluctantly.
Jatin: Humne kuch nahi dekha...
Vicky: Sab to dekha humne...
Elena: Bhagwan jab dimaag baat rahe the tab na tu ...
Vicky: Mai?
Elena: Samose kha raha tha !!
Vicky: Elena ki bacchi tujhe to mai
Sona: Awww ... Perfect just perfect ... Everything has come back to normalcy
Dev: Not yet
Sona: Huh
Dev: Come on now, How did you celebrate your birthday earlier?
Sona: Okay ... so early in the morning ... Maa, Papa & I used to go to Dakshineshwar Temple, we had our meals together & used to spend a lot of time together...
Dev: Stop stop stop ... we are going there
Sona: Where?
Dev: To Dakshineshwar
Sona: Hello ... It is in Kolkata.
Dev: Yes Ms Encylcopedia ... wait a minute
Dev brought his laptop & opened live darshan of the temple.
Sona was in a dilemma. What should she see? The goddess who had started giving everything to her or the person who himself never believed in god but had done special arrangements to make Sona happy... Should she see the kindness that was dripping from Kali mata's face or should see the happiness dripping from Dev's face? There was so much of excitement in his eyes as if a kid is celebrating his own birthday.
Asha: Thank You Beta! That was really very thoughtful. Now who all will have a special breakfast?
Vicky: Me
Elena: No no no he'll eat up everything.
Jatin: You fight & I'll eat till then
Sona was looking at all of this standing in the corner.
SONA'S POV: Thank you thank you bhagwan jii !!! Everything is perfect just perfect ... let it be like this only & I'll never... never ever in my life ask for anything else ...
Dev: Hey!
Sona: Don't talk to me
Dev: Fine ... I'm going
Sona: No no no
Dev: Girls are complicated ...
Sona: Obhodro ... but I'm still angry
Dev: Then you don't want your gift?
Sona: My gift!
Dev: Lalchi ladki ... ab to kuch nahi milne wala
Sona: Dev ... Dev ... suno to
Dev: Na na na ....
Sona: Don't talk to me now
Dev: Sorry ... Sorry Sona ... Eh Sona kabhi nahi Rona
Sona: Chipakali ke nana hai hai sasur ... Dinasur Dinasur (Not Dinasaur ... It's Dina-sur)
Dev: What was that?
Sona: Better than your Sona-Rona
Dev: Bilkul😑
The rest of them had their breakfast.
Jatin: Bye Sona ... bye aunty ... we'll meet you in the evening
Elena: Bye ... Vicky ... Let's go
Vicky: Hmm ... hmm ...
Elena: Stop eating Vicky
Asha: Koi baat nahi beta ... aaram se khao ... acche se kha ke jaana
Asha had a lot of arrangements left to make she got busy working out a plan in her room but when she came out, much to her surprise, Vicky had left but Dev was still there sitting on the sofa.
Dev: Aunty ... Tell me everything that has to be done ... A to Z ... I'll manage
Asha: You are just out of hospital ... you should...
Dev: I am out of hospital ... that's why I've come
Asha: Okay you win
The whole day Dev helped in all the preparations to make the 'special girl's' birthday even more special. Sona had protested against his helping them but Dev was not listening to anyone.
Sona's POV: Dev ... no wait ... my Dev ... is doing everything possible to make my day even more special. All these small things that he does make me helpless & leaves me with no choice but to love him even more but in his endeavor of making my day special he is ignoring me ... Even mom is busy with the preparations ... I've got nothing to do ... I think I should take a small nap ...
Sona went to her room, switched on her A/C she opened her comforter & something slipped out of it. It was a box that was gift wrapped and had a note with it
"Busy with your birthday's preparation ... There's a bouquet of roses near your study desk... Gussa mat hona bahut kaam hai
Talk to this ..."
Sona tore open the gift wrap & saw the gift
SONA'S POV: Wow!! A photo frame with all our pictures framed! Mr. Obhodro you are so caring ... Had maa & the others not been at home ... I would've come & hugged you now itself ... What's this at the backside ...
Sona opened another note
"My Bengali Bala ... your Bengali song is prepared ... Be ready"
Sona read this; got up & started dancing.
"Aey haaaallooo !!"
I can bet if Daya Ben of TMOC would've seen her she would also feel insecure by Sona's extremely weird song ...
The day passed ... Dev was too busy in making everything perfect for Sona that he had no clue about what time it was & he didn't even remember to eat or take his medicines. He was getting exhausted. He was not supposed to work so much after all he had just recovered from flu but Dev could not think anything beyond Sona's happiness.
Sona: Dev ...
Dev: Aunty ...
Sona: Aunty kisko bola?
Dev: Ohh sorry sorry Sona ... I thought it's Aunty
Sona: Ya ya ... Why will you recognize my voice?
Dev: Sona ... I'm sorry
Sona: You should have replied to one call ... one message ... you could have given a missed call atleast
Dev: I didn't want you to take any stress ...
Sona: By not picking up my phone you gave me stress
Dev: Don't take unnecessary stress ...
Sona: Unnecessary? You are not unnecessary for me Dev you are ...
Dev: I am?
Sona: Special ...
Badle se din hain, meri badli hai raatein
Kai dino se meri mehki hai saasein
Pehli dafa hai ke mujhmein tu chalka hai .....
Pehli dafa hai ke mujhmein tu chalka hai
Mere rangon me kuch rang hai tere jaise bhi
Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi
Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi
Dev: Thank You ... That was a great compliment ... Atleast you call someone special except
Sona: Except?
Dev: Except this ...
Dev went away & brought a doll ... It was crooked, one of the hand had come off ... clearly it was too old but seeing this Sona said
Sona: Charu ... Where did you find her?
Dev: Your cousin from Kolkata ... Sourabh Dada ... has arranged this
Sona: Dada ... you ... you called him ... but how did he manage to send this didn't Dadi ... I mean that lady who calls herself Papa's mom ... Didn't she object?
Dev: You can call him & ask ...
Sona: I haven't spoken to him for a very long time
Dev: Then talk now ... I've his number
Sona: Dev ... Why are you doing this?
Dev: What why? ... Because ...
Sona: Because?
Dev: Because you are also special Sona ...
Meri duniya me tha, Mai apne hi dhyaan mein
Kuch to badal gaya hai mere aasman mein
Aisa kyu kaise kyu kya ho gaya
Kuch khoobsurat sa dil ko ho gaya
Pehli dafa hai ki mujhmein tu chalka hai ...
Pehli dafa hai ki mujhmein tu chalka hai ...
Mere rangon mein kuch rang hai
Tere jaise bhiii
Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi
Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi
PRECAP- PARTY TIME
