DrSalunkhe went silent. Tarika was looking at the two most important people of her life. She was afraid that her father may say NO.

DrS- Waise ye ACP kahan hai? (he asked seriously)

Abhijeet(now scared)- Wo…ACP Sir toh aaye nahi abhi tak.

DrS- Hmm….

Meanwhile, ACP sir entered…

ACP- AIsa kya maang liya Abhijeet ne?

DrS- Arey…..usne mujhse meri beti ka haath maanga hai…sochunga nahi main?

ACP(looking at AbhiRika)-Haan haan ….tu sochta hi reh.

DrS- Main ye soch raha hu ki main apne Samdhi se puch lu ki usey koi problem toh nahi hai na is rishte se? (he spoke looking at ACP)

Abhijeet and Tarika smiled with surprise. Tarika was the happiest.

ACP- Mujhe kya problem hogi….main toh khush hu. Mujhe toh ek achi bahu milne wali hai.

Abhijeet , too smiled.

DrS- Arey bhai…jab miya biwi raazi….toh kya karega Salunkhe Kaazi !

Tarika went to DrS and looked at him…..

Tarika- Thank you Sir….! (she had tears in her eyes)

DrS- Arey arey…..tumhe toh khush hona chahiye. Shaadi hone wali hai tumhari.

DrS(smiled)-Meri beti ki aankhn mein aansu ache nahi lagte. (to ABhijeet)- Arey bhai abhijeet…zara Tarika ko bahar leke jao. Mujhe Pradyuman se baat karni hai.

Abhijeet(smiled)- Thank you Sir ! (to Tarika) CHalo !

So, they left. Abhijeet hold her hand and they moved towards the parking lot.

Tarika- Hm kahan ja rahe hain?

Abhijeet(smiled)- Mujhe meri hone wali biwi ka mood thik krna hai. Toh usey icecream khilane le ja raha hu.

Tarika(smiled)- Acha….tumhe pata hai na ki mujhe kaunsi icecream pasand hai?

Abhijeet(smiled)- Haan pata hai. Chalo ab chalte hain.

She smiled and they headed off to the icecream parlor. All thru the journey , they were talking about what all happened in the lab. They reached the parlor. He went in to fetch icecream for both of , Tarika's phone rang. She was disturbed seeing the number. She disconnected the call. Meanwhile , Abhijeet came back with icecreams.

Abhijeet- Pesh hai aapki favorite icecream ! (he said forwarding the icecream to her)

Tarika(smiled)- Thank you !

Abhijeet- Kya baat hai Tarika…..kuch pareshan lag rahi ho ? Koi problem?

Tarika(looked at him)- Abhijeet…..kya main tumse kuch puch sakti hu ?

Abhijeet- Haan pucho na…..tumhe permission ki zarurat nahi.

Tarika- Please mujhe galat mat samajhna abhijeet…..kyunki ab hum ek nayi zindagi ki shuruat karne ja rahe hain…isliye main tumse ye puchna chahti hu ki kya koi aisi baat hai jo mujhe jaanni chahiye? Kyunki main nahi chahti ki hamara rishta kisi choti si wajah se toote.

Abhijeet- Tarika…17 saal pehle ki zindagi ka toh pata nahi mujhe…kuch bhi yaad nahi hai mujhe. Par haan uske baad se main jo kuch bhi hu tumhare samne hu. Pichle 6 saalon se tum bhi mujhe jaanti ho. Zindagi ne jiske saath dhoka kiya ho wo kisi ke saath kya dhoka karega. Aur in 17 saalon ki zindagi ab sirf CID ke ird gird ghumti hai jisme ab tum judne ja rahi ho. I promise Tarika main aisa kuch nahi karunga jisse tumhe takleef hogi.

Tarika(with teary eyes)- I am sorry abhijeet….main tumhara dil dukhana nahi chahti thi. Main sirf jaanna chahti thi.

ABhijeet- Tumhe jaanne ka haq hai tarika. Aur main samajhta hu ki tum mere baare mein sab kuch jaanti ho. Par ye bhi sach hai ki meri zindagi mein sirf Tum ho.

She blushed when he said that and smiled too.

Abhijeet(smiled)- Tum aise muskarate hue hi achi lagti ho. Isliye ab muskara do.

She smiled a bit wider.

Tarika- Tum sach mein naraz nahi ho na us sawal se?

Abhijeet- Nahi …..tumse naraz ho gaya toh DrSaab meri band baja denge.

He spoke in a manner that she laughed out loud. He, too smiled widely seeing her smile.

Tarika- Tum na bahut ache ho abhijeet !

Abhijeet(smiled)- aain….ye kaise pata laga tumhe?

Tarika- Tumne mujhe icecream jo khilayi. (and shelaughed)

Abhijeet- Achaa…phir main tumhe icecream khilaunga.

She looked at him for a second and then started laughing. Meanwhile. ACP called him and told him that their engagement will be on Sunday.

The days passed , and now it was the big day of engagement. But, from the past few days…..tarika was worried and tensed. That day, shreya was making her hair when she noticed her….

Shreya- Kya baat hai tarika…pareshan ho?

Tarika- Nai….nai toh…..main toh khush hu.

Shreya- Pakka khush ho?

Tarika(angrily)- Shreya maine kaha …abhijeet ko bhejo yahan …abhi aur isi waqt.

Shreya- Okay…bhejti hu.

She went down and asked abhijeet to go up to her. He went up to her….
