Sobha ji: Han {Smiles}
Rekha ji: {Though she now Isha left bcz of anger but still smiles and noddes} Han vo esi hi hai…mera matlab thodi sharrmili hai…
Minal ji: Bhenji mujhe bas esi hi bahu ki talash thi…. Par main chahti hu k Isha ek baar mere bête se khud bhi mil le…akhir shadi to undono ko hi karni hai…baki ap fir bhi ek baar bhaisab se baat krke bta dijiyega tanki main mere bere Arjun se baat kar saku….
Rekha ji: Ji han bilkul…. Main inse baat krte hi apko phone krungi… baki bhagwan ki marzi…
Three of the ladies smile and then Minal ji and Shobha ji left from there….Rekha ji tried to talk to Isha but all in vain….after a while Dr. Suresh came home…Rekha ji served him water but seemed tensed….
Suresh ji: Kya baat hai Rekha ? Tum kuch preshan lag rahi ho….
Rekha ji: Kya batau ji…. Preshan na hou to kya karu!
Suresh ji: Arey bhai kuch btao to sahi…
Rekha ji: Ji darasal vo aj Sobha ayi thi aur…{Explained him everything} A bap hi btao kya karu main is ladki ka…kabhi nai sunti kisiki…. Main to samjha samjha k thak gai hun…esa acha rishta aur khandan kismet se milta hai aur ye ladki hai ki….. ab ab hi baat kijiye ussey…shayad apki baat samjh jay….
Suresh ji: {Smiles lightly and noddes} Tum fiqr mat karo..main baat krunga ussay…..
After changing …he came to dinning for dinner but Isha still was not thetre …he understood that she must be in her room…so he moved to her room and saw her sitting on her bed absent minded…. When she saw her father she ran to him and hugged him….
Isha: Papa… Plz samjhaiye na maa ko meri shadi k piche padi hui hain….jab main abhi tyar nai hu to vo kyu mujhe force kar rahi hain.!
Suresha ji: {Parting from hug… cupps her face} Isha… dekho beta koi tumhe is shadi k liye force nai krega… aur chahe to bhi nai kar sakta kunki main janta hun meri beti apni life apni sharton pe jiti hai…. Isliye tum jb chaho jisse chaho tb shadi krna ….lekin beta dekho hum tumare dushman to nahi hain na,...jo bhi khenge tumare bhle k liye hi khenge…. Dekho beta main main tumari maa ki side nai le raha par jo sahi hai vhi bol raha hun…. Arjun ek CID officer hai…. Kafi suna hai maine uske bare mein aura chi family bhi hai…. Main chahta hun k tum atleast ek baar ussey mil lo…. Uske baad jo tumara faisla hoga mujhe manzur hoga aur main vada krta hun k agar tujhe vo pasand nai aya to jabtk tum nai chahogi tumari shadi k bare mein is ghar mein koi baat nai krega…. Thik hai!
Isha: {Thought for a while and then nodded positively} Thik hai papa… par ye akhri baar hoga aur agar mujhe ladka acha ni laga to mujhe koi force nai krega….
Suresh ji: {Smiles} Ye hui na bahadur bacho vali baat… ab chalo khana khaye…mujhe to bhai bahut bhookh lagi hai…..
Isha: {Smiles lightly} OK Papa… chaliye….
Then after dinner… Rekha ji talked to Minal ji…. Both ladies plan for Arjun-Isha's first meeting….. Minal ji talked to Arjun…..
Minal ji: Arjun ..beta mujhe tumse kuch baat karni hai…
Arjun: {While Looking in a file} Bs 2 min maa… kal ye file court tak pahuchani hai…. To ek akhri baar check karlu... is baar is muzrim ko saza mail k rhegi…akhir bahut mushkil se hath aya hai…
Minal ji: Hey bhagwan ye ladka bhi na…. Kabhi to muzrim aur apni duty se bahr nikal…meri taraf bhi tere koi farz hain ya nai… ! Beta apni maa k liye 5 minute to tum nikal sakte ho na….
Arjun: {Closed the file and kept on side table and turned to Minal ji and smiles}Maa ye kaisi batein kar rahi ho…ap janti ho na ki main apse kitna pyar karta hu… par meri job hi kuch esi h k….
Minal ji: Acha baba bs bs…. Tu aur tere bahane {Smiles and slaps softly on his cheeks} Acha beta sun… vo maine tere Liye ek ladki dekhi hai…. Bahut acha parivar hai….
Arjun: Oho maa… apto janti ho k meri job kaisi hai jb main apko thik se waqt nai de pata to ek acha pati kaise ban paunga…. Aur fir meri zindgi ka kya bhaosa kab kis goli pe mera nam likha ho{ but Minal ji immedieately keeps her hand on his lips}
Minal ji: Khabardar agar esa dobara kabhi bole to…. Tumare papa to kabka hmein chor k chle gaye agar maine tumhe bhi kho diya toh main to jite ji marr jaungi…
Arjun: {cupping her face} Maa relax… main to bs keh raha tha k esa ho skta hai..esa hoga zruri to nai hai na…. ap chinta mat kijiye apko chorke main kahin nai jaunga….
Minal Ji: {Smiles a bit} Thik hai… to mujhse vada kar esa kabhi nai khega fir!

Minal ji: {Smiles} Sirf yahi nai…tujhe parso us ladki se bhi milna hai…. Isha naam hai bahut pyari ladki hai mujhe yaqin hai tujhe bhi vo bahut pasand aygi….ye le uski tasvir..dekhle ek baar…{Forwards an envelope}
Arjun: Par maa!
Minal ji: Beta ek baar milne mein kya harz hai… bs ek baar mil le fir job hi tera faisla ho…
Arjun: {sighs} Thik hai maa… jaisa ap kaho…Khush !
Minal ji smiles and noddes and hugs Arjun….then she left ….when Arjun was about to open that envelope… he got a call and placed the envelope on bed…but as he left on edge…with blow of wind it fell down under the bed…when he came back attending the call he didn't found it on bed and later he ignored it… after two days….. Arjun-Isha were to meet at St. Sebestrian garden…..that day a guy had planned to purpose his love so when Arjun-Isha reched there…. They were mistaken as the guy and his love by the managing authority…..
Isha: {Was waiting for Arjun} Ye abhi tak nai aya….koi ni ane do… main bhi sidha mna karne vali hu…bs ek formality hai ussey milne ki tanki maa papa dobara meri shadi k piche na pade….
Here…
Arjun: {Searching for Isha} Kahan hogi vo ladki…maine to uski tasveer bhi nai dekhi thi… koi baat ni akhir CID officer hun…dhoondh hi lunga….{He looked for here here and there in the garden and yes finaaly found her..he moved towards her as she was having her back towards him he called her name} Isha! Isha Kumar!
Isha: {Turned towards him and saw a dashing handsome hunk in front of her} Ap…. Arjun Malhotra …right?
Arjun: {he saw her and admired her beauty and then smiles a bit} ji… M sorry if m late…. Mumbai's traffic
Isha: {Smiles lightly} Ji
Isha/Arjun: Vo main apse… {Both smiles}
Arjun: Ladies first… so phle ap…
Isha: Dekhiye Arjun ji… plz mujhe galat mat samjhiega …. Par main abhi shadi k liye puri tarah tyar nai hun…. Maine aj tak apni life apne tariqe se jee hai aur Shadi jaisa important faisla main kisi bhi mazburi ya dabav mein akr nai krna chahti kiunki main nai chahti k isse apki zindgi bhi barbad ho….Shadi to pure mann se krni chahiye jab do log apas mein pyar krein…. Ek dusre ko samjhe aur hum log to abhi ek dusre ko ache se jante tak nai… I hope you understand….
Arjun: I understand and totally agrees with you….aur fir shadi do logo ki nai do parivaron ki bhi hoti hai,,….ismein sabki khushi aur razamandi bhi to honi chahiye… aur jis sachai se apne mujhse ye baat kahi…I really appreciate that… mujhe koi problem nai vaise bhi agr maan lijiye hmne shadi kar bhi li to meri CID ki job hi kuch esi hai k main apko time nai de pata….
Isha: Oh lagta hai ap bhi meri trh sochte hain….. vaise acha laga apse milkr…apne meri sari tention dur kardi…
Arjun: Mujhe bhi…. Vaise shadi na sahi hum dost to ban hi sakte hain!
Isha: {smiles} Offcourse…. {Forwards her hand} Friends….!
Arjun: {Smiles too and shakes hand with her} Friends….
Isha: Acha ab mujhe chalna chahiye….
Arjun: Sure…. If u don't ming may I drop you somewhere?
Isha: Arey nai…. Main chali jaungi…
Arjun: dekhiye police vala hun kidnap nai karunga…. {Both laughs} Ab dost kaha hai to dost k liye itna to kar hi sakta hun….
Isha smilses and noddes….and when they were about to move Isha's feet got struck with something but before she could fall down Arjun held her…..and they shared a cute eyelock
"TERE BINA MAIN REHNE LAGA HOON
TERI HAWA MEIN BEHNE LAGA HOON
JAANE NA KAISE TERA HUA HOON
MUJHE TO LAGTA HAI MAIN SHAYAD
TERE DIL KI DUA HUN HAAN
TUJHKO JO PAYA AAHA
TO JEENA AAYA
AB YEH LAMHA THEHER JAAYE
THAM JAAYE BAS JAAYE HUM DONO KE DARMIYAAN…"
