One day as if God had heard Rishabh's prayers, Misha came to meet Rani Jayadevi whom she fondly called
' Dadi ', about her N.G.O. work.
After meeting dadi she went to the garden where Meenakshi was talking to Chitransh. As soon as Meenakshi saw her she introduced her to her brother.
Meenakshi: Bhai, she is Mishu, I mean Misha. She is my college friend and Mishu this is my brother Chitransh.
Misha: Hi, nice to meet you.
Chitransh: Pleasure meeting you.
Both started talking and soon found out that they had common interests too. Meenakshi felt a little ignored but then came Rishabh. Misha kept talking to Chitransh whom she had started calling ' Ansh '.
Meenakshi: Oh bhaia, we were waiting for you.
Rishabh:<smiling> Is it dear??
His eyes suddenly fell on Misha who looked shocked.
Meenakshi: Mishu, meet Rishabh bhaia. I am very close to him and you know what he surprised us by coming a day before. And bhaia, this is Misha, my friend. You saw her picture right!!
Rishabh: Right Shona. Hi Ms. Mishu.
He stuck out his hand for hand shake but Misha refused his hand and,
Misha: It's Misha for you. Only the ones close to me call me Mishu.
Meenakshi gave them a confused look.
Meenakshi: Do u guys know....
Misha <cutting her>: No, I don't and let's keep it that way. Anyway Meenu give me my notes. I will leave.
Meenakshi: Ok but you said that you will stay till 7 p.m.
Misha: Yeah! But I guess I'll go.
Suddenly,
Chitransh: Hey beautiful ladies! Sorry to interrupt you. Misha before going will you honor this rose by tucking it in your hair. It will match your outfit.
Misha: Ansh you can call me Mishu. <glaring at Rishabh> And thanks for this rose. Why don't you tuck it in my hair?
Rishabh felt jealous as he saw Chitransh helping Misha. But he also smiled to himself thinking about the way Misha made him feel. She was the first girl about whom he was this serious. Back at London he was most eligible bachelor but he didn't gave a second glance to any girl. He looked at Misha's fading figure and made a mental note to punish Misha for being arrogant to him. That night he again wrote a shayari for her.
Shayari:
Patta-patta buta-buta
haal hamara jaane hai,
Jaane na jaane gul hi
Bagh to saara jaane hai.
Translation: Every leaf every vine knows my condition. Only the rose doesn't knows that I am in love with it rest the whole garden knows that.
Back at home, Misha was writing her diary,
Dear diary,
I got to know that the
' Chomu Raja ' is Meenakshi's brother. His name is Rishabh. He helped the old man but what is the use of that now? Today I replied very arrogantly.
But now I think.... I was quite rude to him. I guess I will apologize when I meet him next.
