The CID officers settles themselves in their perspective rooms which are shown by Rahul and his father. They change their clothes and rest for a while, after reaching the location from a long ang tiering journey on the bus. All the invitation cards are distributed again to the guest as a reminder and a guide through the grand functions.
Purvi, Shreya and Divya shares the same room as the three girls takes their place on the bed and gossip about their colleagues, Purvi takes out her clothes from her bag and keeps them in their place on the cupboard as they have to stay in the palace for a long time, until Sambhavana's wedding gets over which will take about a week or half.
' Purvi, tujhe Dushyant sir kese lagte hai?' Divya asks, turning her head to the girl and asking the question, while the change of behavior of the senior cop towards his junior Purvi, didn't get unnoticed by his junior Divya.
' kese lagte hai matlab? He is my senior and he is also nice' purvi frowns at a point of her statement but a blush creeks up on her cheeks as well.
' aur kavin sir?' shereya adds
' wohh bhi acche hai, par tum log mujhse yeh sab kuyn pooch rahe ho?' the girl inquires
' areh Dushyant sir likes you, dikhta nehi kya tumhe?' Divya squeaks
' buddhu Dushyant sir nehi kavin sir likes her, and I am sure about it' Shreya argues
' kya bol rahe ho tum dono, pagal ho kya? We are just friends' Purvi shakes her head and interrupts
' so you mean tum un dono mein se kisi ko bhi like nehi karti? Kuch bhi feel nehi hota jab wohh dono tumhare samne ate hai? Ya phir tum dono ko ek saath he like karne lagi ho?' divya jokes but somehow says the truth, and Purvi's face gets pale as she questions her emotions and feelings hearing the statement her friend stated. Shreya sees that and gets a hint of it, but suddenly divya's phone buzzes and she excuses herself for a moment
' Purvi tujhe kavin sir aur dushyant sir dono hi toh pasand nehi?' Shreya asks, lowering her tone so no one hears it. She stares at her friend for a time being as she doesn't answer, but without words the lady cop got her answers and she sighs. ' Purvi please bolo bhi kuch, tum janti ho yeh galat hai'
' I don't know Shreya, I don't know. Mujhe pata bhi nehi ki meye un dono keliye kuch feel bhi karti hu ya nehi but I know that jabse meye un dono se mili hu, meye khud ko bhul gayee hu. I don't know how to stick to my feelings, mujhe toh yeh bhi nehi pata ki how do I get to know ki meye feel kya karti hu because they both make me happy.' Purvi blurts in frustration as she has been thinking about it a lot and today even her friends questioned about this.
' what do you mean?'
' I mean ki Dushaynt sir makes me happy, he makes me feel strong to stand up for myself, he makes me realize the value of life and how important it is, and on the other hand kavin sir makes me laugh…he makes me want to live my life to the fullest and enjoy it. Abh tum he batao ki meye kya karun,?' the girl cries
' purvi you cant love both because you cant have both, agar tumhe confusion ho raha hai toh meye suggest karungi ki tum un dono se thoda dur raho. Distance yourself from them phir aram se socho.' Her friend guides and suggests an idea for her own good.
' I think you are right, mujhe yehi karna chayee' purvi nods and agrees to her decision
' itne mein tu Rahul ko chance de sakti hai, meye dekh rahi hu kese lattu hoke tere peeche ghum raha hai' Shreya teases and purvi grabs a pillow from her side and throws it to her friend's direction
' meye already itni confused hu, aur confusion barhana hai?' the girl yells
' accha accha thik hai, ek kaam ka tu so ja, raat hogai hai aur kal engagement hai.' Shreya reminds with a grin and lies down turning on her side and covering herself with a blanket. While purvi stares at the wall for a moment, thinking about the suggestion her friend suggested to stay away from the Khanna brother. But will that work?
On the other hand the Khanna bothers who are given a room to share, lies down on the bed but none of them sleeps. They smile to themselves not knowing why but knowing that purvi is in their mind. that girl is the one that they keep thinking about, one of them is becoming obsessed with her while the other wants her badly anyhow.
' ap soye nehi?' kavin snaps, looking at her brother by turning his face towards him
' tu bhi toh nehi soya' dushaynt replies
' ha bas kuch soch raha tha'
' wese pari ko tune inform kar diya hai na ki agar wohh hume surprise dene ayee toh hum gar par nehi honge? Because last time wohh ek hafte pehle he a gayee thi, hume surprise karne uski dono friends ke saath' the older brother reminds
' nehi, ane do use aur jab dekhe ji ghar locked hai khud ba khud chale jaygi. Accha hoga' the younger brother shrugs with a evil grin
' kya karun meye tum dono ka? Koi nehi meye hi bata dunga'
' mujhe pata tha ki ap ko kangana pehle se hi pasand hai, issiliye ap cahte ho ki wohh teeno ayee' kavin accuses
' kya!? Pagal hai tu? Mujhe koi kangana wangana pasand nehi hai, meye bas nehi cahta ki meri choti behen ko koi tekleef ho issiliye meye use inform kar dunga.'
' kangana nehi toh soniya?'
' ek bhi nehi' dushyant annoyingly replies
'toh kon hai wohh larki jiske bare mein mera bhai din raat soch ta rehta hai?' kavin teases
' koi bhi nehi' dushaynt shakes his head and answers while his cheeks flames red ' aur wohh larki kon hai jiske bare mein tu hamesa soch ta rehta hai?'
' meye? Meye ….toh….koi bhii nehi' kavin stammers his words and they both stare at the celling and together they whispers closing their eyes ' purvi'
' kya?' kavin asks with a frown as they both herd the name of the girl from each other's mouth
' tu nen purvi kuyn kaha?' dushyant repeats in a different way
' purvi wohh, meye Tani ke baren mei socha raha tha ki…..she hates purvi' kavin excuses ' par apne purvi ka naam kuyn liya?'
' wohh..wohh…rahul, ajj kitna chipak raha tha na? bujhe lagta hai ki he likes her' dushyant makes up an excuse as well
' right' the younger brother nods and looks at his brother again
' so jate hai, raat bohut ho gayee hai' the older brother snaps
' good night, aur pari ko mat bata na please!'
' so ja' dushyant threatens
' kese bhai ho ap? Chote bhai ki ek request nehi pora kar sakte?' kavin whines
' mere bhai, chota sa bhai, aja lori suna ke tujhe sula ta hu' dushyant turns his head says
' good night' kavin covers his face with the blanket and turns on the other side
They both pretend to sleep but none of them does, they ignored the fact that they both were making an excuse about thinking about the girl.
At the middle of the night when everyone is asleep, purvi doesn't, its hard for her to sleep In a new place which has always been a problem. She takes her shawl and walks to the terrace, she sits down on the bench and looks up at the sky, trying hard to clear up her mind by taking deep breaths and closing her eyes.
' need nehi a rahi?' a familiar voice interrupts her pace and makes her eyes open, looking at the direction where the voice came from
' ap yeha?' she questions
' ha wohh mujhe bhi neend nehi a rahi thi issiliye' the man walks to her and sits beside her making a distance, not making her feel uncomfortable
' mujhe neyi jaga par neend nehi ati' the girl says with a smile
' wese ajj tare kuch zadaya hi chamak rahe hai na?' the man says, joining her for the star watching
' mujhe stars pasand nehi' purvi shrugs
' kuyn? Dekho inko, mujhe stars bohut pasand hai'
' pata nehi bas jabse suna hai ki jab koi mar jata hai wohh ek star banjata hai, tab se mujhe stars nehi pasand. Jo hamare saath nehi hai iss duniya mein, hum unhe roz as stars dekhte hai, aur kitne pass hote huye bhi kitne dur hai' purvi apprises causing the man to look at her with sympatheic eyes ' ap ko stars kuyn pasand hai Dushyant sir?'
' I like stars because they shine in the darkness' the cop replies staring at her twinkling eyes ' like you' he blurts
' kya?' she whispers, snapping him back to the world
' I mean ki stars shine in the darkness, and so do you' he whispers the last part. Making her blush, but soon she remembers the thing her friend told her to stay away from them. she tries to hide her blush but did doent get unnoticed by the cop, he smiles seeing this and ruffles his hair. Purvi stands up and starts to walk but stops when he calls her name.
' purvi kaha ja rahi ho?'
' wohh….mujhe neend a rahi hai bye' she quickly says and walks faster but stops her track again and turns her head to glance at him as she sees his eyes darted at her.
' good night' he says and she starts to walks again, taking a turn right and gets to her room. While on the other hand dushaynt looks up at the sky and smiles, rubbing his neck and his heart bounces for joy. The harder she tries to ignore them the harder it get for her, and it will be more.
Day 6
The next morning everyone joins the Mahajan's at the breakfast table, and the workers decorate the house with lights and flowers. The piller's white color has been covered with yellow and orange flowers and fairy lights. The whole palace shines in brightness, and the people starts to get ready for the grand engagement party held today afternoon. At the breakfast the CID officers chat for a while but they quickly finishes their meal for getting suited up, specially the girls because they have to look the best!
' purvi, ajj ke funcition ke liye kuch songs select karne hai mujhe help karoge?' a voice interrupts her, while she was making her way to her room
' thik hai, music ke bare meye tum mujhse help le sakte ho Rahul' she smiles and walks with him, to his room. But someone watches them as they leave.
' yeha se kuch jalne ki badbu a rahi hai, jalan ki jalne ki' Shreya walks to the person who as watching her friend and Rahul talk
' jalan tumhe hogi ab kuyn ki jo wedding planner hai na? wohh daya sir ke saath flirt kar rahi hai' the guy replies with a fake smile, and his hand pointing at his senior's direction
'yeha par meri nehi apki baath chal rahi hai' the junior ignores his statement
' kya chaiye?'
' kavin sir ap purvi ko like karte ho na?' Shreya inquires more to make her suspect into conformation
' kisne kaha?' he lies and stammers his word
' kisine nehi but dikh raha hai'
' jo dekh na hai wohh dekhti tohh ho nehi, aur meye purvi ko….we are just friends' he excuses not completeing his words for lies that he doesn't like purvi
' ap ko bolna hai ki ' I don't like purvi' ap dono friends ho mujhe pata hai'
' ho gaya? Mujhe jana hai' kavin snaps and walks out of that place, making her suspect into conformation by his tactics
After purvi helped Rahul for the songs, she leaves the room typing something on her phone and walking towards her room to get ready as the guest started to arrive and the function almost started. hours later all the officers gets down and they take their seats on the tables, together, while purvi remains in the room, struggling to zip up her dress. She calls out for Shreya but her friend nevers comes to help as she already went downstairs, forgot to inform her.
' shreya' purvi calls with a frown, and someone outside the door stops his track and peeks inside. He looks at her and then looks around for the officer she has been calling, but no one is there. he opens the door slightly and gets in.
' purvi' the guy says and the girl turns around
' dushaynt sir' she asks
' ha wohh tum Shreya ko dhund rahi thi but sab neeche hai' he informs
' kya app use bula denge?' she requests
' kuch kam hai? Mujhe boldo meye help kardeta hu'
The girl thinks for a while and tells him the situation, and pleads to him to zip up her dress as she is getting late for the function. Dushaynt hesitates at the first but then agrees for it, she looks at herself at the mirror while he closes his eyes and slowly zips up her dress. Purvi sees that and smiles at his politeness, his fingers mistakenly touches her bare skin, causing her to shiver. They both feels the electricity between their touches but none of them talks about it.
' ho gaya' the cop whispers
' thank you' she replies glancing at him from her shoulder
' meye neeche wait karta hu tumhara' he smiles and walks out, leaving her to slap her forehead to for blushing like a fool infront of him.
The function starts and everyone enjoys it, Purvi stays with Shreya all the time while Kavin's eyes never leaves her. Dushyant on the other hand stays with his seniors and gets engrossed in their topic of discussion, not trying to look bad that his focus is only at one person.
' so ms purvi, ap bohut sundar lag rahi hai ajj' kavin whispers in her ears and she looks at him, but then remembers shreya's words to confront her feelings and only chose one of them. she smiles and starts to walk away from him, keeping her mind straight for dushyant. Not that she knows that she has fallen for both and cannot ignore the one.
' tum mujhse bhag kuyn rahi ho?' the cop follows her and asks with a frown and desperation in his voice with hurts.
' meye bhag nehi rahi bas Shreya ko dhund rahi thi' purvi lies, not making any eye contact with the guy
' tum hamesa Shreya ke saath he rehti ho, hum friends hai na? thoda time mere saath bhi raho' kavin shrugs, searching for her eyes while she looks at everything but not him ' purvi' he cups her cheeks and makes her look at him, which she has been avoiding. Their eyes meet and snap!. Her feelings for kavin consumes her, this is the things she didn't want, ever in her life. To be confused. She cant ignore him, not till she starts hating him which seems almost impossible. The Khanna brothers did their magic to her that cannot be broken, until she is determined to chose one.
' mujh se kya koi galati hui hai?' kavin asks
' nehi' she whispers, not moving her eyes from him
' toh mujhse dur kuyn ja rahi ho? His fingers careness her cheeks
' meye kahi nehi ja rahi, bas Shreya ko dhund rahi thi' she replies, and kavin smiles
' chalo mere saath phir' he retorts and grabs her hand before she could protest, he leads her to the garden where no one is present except them. he takes her to the corner of the garden, near the lake where there is white bandstand, decorated with lights and white flowers, different from the decorations inside the palace. Swans swim on the lakes and the moon shines bright upon them.
' kavin sir hum yeha kya kar rahe hai?' she questions
' tum yeha khari raho' her senior commands
' par…' her words fades when kavin keeps his finger on her lips, to make her quiet and they look into each other's eyes for a brief moment then snaps out when the loud sound of the music hits their ears.
' yehi raho' he lowers his tone and disappers from her sight, she remains standing on her position where he told her to, waiting for him and his surprise.
Suddenly she looks up and sees some flower petals blowing around her, everywhere there are flowers in the air while kavin turned the fan on, where the flowers are kept infront of it. Purvi smiles and closes her eyes, walking in a circle and feeling the flower petals touch her skin. Kavin folds his hand and watces her with a huge grin on his face.
' yeh sab apne kiya?' she questions
' ha wohh ek larki ko dance keliye ese normally toh nehi puch sakta, kuch special tohh karna hi tha' he walks to her and says
' andar jake bhi toh dance kar sakte hai sab ke saath.'
' sab ke saath he toh mujhe dance nehi karna, only with you' he whispers and tugs her hair behind her ears, which falls on her face, blocking his view to see her properly.
' there is no music' she reminds with a chuckle
' areh, palace ke andar chal raha hai na songs. Wahi suno, will you dance with me?'
' yes' she smiles and keeps her hand on his hand
Mann yeh sahib ji
Jaane he saab ji
Phir bhi banaye bahane
Naina nawabi ji
Dekhe hain saab ji
Phir bhi na samjhe ishare
Mann yeh sahib ji haa karta bahane
Naina nawabi ji na samjhe ishare
Dheere dheere, nainon ko dheere dheere
[ she rests her head on his chest and move along the lyrics, where on the other hand kavin keeps her palm on her bare waist and another on her head. They both hug move, closing their eyes]
Jiya ko dheere dheere, bhaayo re Saibo...
Dheere dheere, begaana dheere dheere
Apna sa dheere dheere, laage re Saibo...
saiboooo...
Silbato mein uljhe huve lamho ko chal sulzaye
O Karvato main soye huve khwabo ki neede udaye
Aisi kasak ji haan din dikhlaye
Chupake se aa thoda ishq kar jaye.
[ purvi looks up at him and their faces are inches apart, she smile to him and joins their forehead. The moon in between watches them fall and shines brighter.]
Dheere dheere, nainon ko dheere dheere
Jiya ko dheere dheere, bhaayo re Saibo.
Dheere dheere, begaana dheere dheere
Apna sa dheere dheere, laage re Saibo
Everyone enjoys where dushaynt looks around, searches for purvi but doesn't find her. He asks sheray about her but she also doenst know where her friend is. He sighs and sits on the chair, waiting for her to come so he can dance with the girl of his dreams.
