A/N: Hello folks! Hope everyone is good.

Happy reading..!

Later that night…

Gaurav dropped Palak home. She seemed happy. Vineet opened the door and she entered in. Ruhana asked her about Gaurav. She replied that he went away dropping her as he had to pick up his sister from her friend's home.

Ruhana nodded and left to prepare coffee..Palak moved in when palak's mobile rang. As she checked the caller-id, she smiled and picked up the call. Ruhana tells her that she and vineet are going into the park. She nods and get engaged into her call.

Park...

Ruhana and Vineet were sitting on a bench together in park. Ruhana was happy, and Vineet knew the reason behind it.

Ruhana: Vineet, Kitni khush hai na wo?

Vineet(smiles): haan, wo khush hoti hai toh tum khush hoti ho aur tumhe khush dekhkar mujhe khushi milti hai.

Ruhana flashes a blushy smile.

Vineet(thoughtfully): I hope Gaurav Palak ko humesha khush rakhega.

Ruhana: haan Vineet, uske aane se Palak khush rehne lagi hai, hope iski yeh khush humesha bani usko khush hi dekhna chahti hu.

Vineet: tum chinta mat karo, humari palak ne soch samjhkar hi usse dost chuna hoga."

Ruhana nods, smiling.

Vineet: "aakhir dono behein intelligent hain.

Ruhana and Vineet share a laugh. Vineet wraps a hand around Ruhana who places her head on his shoulder. They spend some time like that and later walk back home. Ruhana peeped into Palak's room and found her sleeping with a smile. She moves in the room and moves her fingers in her hair, kissed her forehead and left the room.

Next Morning…

Ruhana was in the kitchen preparing breakfast. Palak was in a hurry getting ready while Vineet was glancing through the newspaper.

Palak- Dii, aapne pink wali file dekhi?(she shouted from her room)

Ruhana- palak, maine nahi dekhi. Room mein hi hogi.

Palak(shouting)- Dii, please dhundh do na. Main late ho rhi hu.

Ruhana(sighs)- Ohho palak, phir wahi carelessness….kab sudhregi tu?

Palak- Kabhi nahi….ab jaldi aao.

Ruhana moves into her room while they hear a horn… Palak bit her tongue….

Palak- Ye itni jaldi aa gayaa! Baap re!

Ruhana(looked at her)- Gaurav! Wo yahan kyun aaya?

Palak- dii, wo, usne kaha ki wo mujhe ghar se pick karega.

Ruhana gave her the file and moved out of the room, without replying her. Palak seemed scared. Here, vineet moves toRuhana…

Vineet- ye gaurav kyun aaya hai?

Ruhana- Wo palak ko pick karne aaya hai.

Vineet- hmm….chalo thik hai. Banda thik hi hai.

Ruhana- Vineet…(but was stopped by him)

VIneet- Relax roo, kuch nahi hoga.

He moved to open the door, while Ruhana packed her lunchbox and handed it to her. Palak glanced at her and she smiled. Getting her smile, palak hugged her and left with him.

After a while, they too left for their works for the day.

.

Same Day, Evening…

Ruhana had returned from office and got freshened up. At the same time, she received a call from Vineet , who said , that he'll be late, so, she and palak must have their dinner and not wait for him. She told him to take care and got busy in preparing dinner.

.

.

Around 8 pm….

Ruhana was done with preparing dinner and was waiting for palak. She was watching television when the doorbell rang. Palak entered in and hugged her. Ruhana could easily realise that her sister was happy and scared at the same time. She parted from the hug and looked at her….

Ruhana- Kya baat hai gudiya,itni khushi kis baat ki?

Palak- Dii, wo aaj office mein ek meeting thi. Aur wo meeting foreign delegates ke saath hai. Jis project mein main kaam kar rahi thi, wo unhe bahut pasand aaya. Aur ab wo chahte hain ki main unke saath kaam karu.

Ruhana(Smiles)- Arey, ye toh bahut achi baat hai.

Palak- Par dii….(she pauses)

Ruhana- Arey kya hua? Koi problem hai?

She asked patting her cheek while she holds her hand….

Palak- Dii, wo log chahte hain ki hum unke sath kaam kare. Hume bahar jaana hoga. I mean mujhe Malaysia jaana hoga.

Ruhana- Kya? Lekin kitne din ke liye?

Palak-pata nahi dii….(she spoke sadly)

Ruhana looked at her who seemed sad…she made her sit on the sofa and holds her hand…

Ruhana- Palak, tujhe jaana hai na?

Palak- haan di, lekin pata nahi kitna waqt lag jayega. Main itne din aapke bina kaise rahungi!

Ruhana(Smiles)- Ab toh meri gudiya badi ho gayi hai na! wo apna dhyan khud rakh sakti hai ….hai na?

Palak(looks at her)- lekin dii….(but was stopped by ruhana)

Ruhana(cups her face)- Palak, dekh, ab tu badi ho gayi hai. Tujhe ab yeh sochna hai ki tera faayeda kahan hai. Abhi tune kaha na ki foreign delegates ko tera kaam pasand aaya….toh unke saath kaam karne mein kya harz hai. Tere liye hi faayedemand rahega na.

Palak- lekin dii, wahan jaake….i mean malaysia mein…kaise hoga sab?

Ruhana- main jaanti hu meri behen sab manage kar legi.

She hugs her and smears her head. Meanwhile, the doorbell rang. Palak moves to open the door and found Vineet. He entered in and and palak hugs him. He smiles….

Vineet- Kya baat hai? Badi khush ho?

Palak- Haan jiju, lekin darr bhi lag raha hai?

Vineet- Ab tumhe kya hua?

Palak- Jiju, wo , wo mujhe na Malaysia jaana hoga, office ke kaam se.

Vineet- ye toh achi baat hai, isme kaisa darr?

Palak- jiju, ek toh malaysia se bahar aur wo bhi dii ke bina…(she pauses and looks at ruhana who was pouring water for vineet)

Ruhana- Ab tum hi isey samjhao vineet, meri baat toh sunegi nahi.

Vineet(Smiles)- Okay okay, chalo, pehle change kar lo, phir baat karte hain.

Vineet- toh palak, kyun dar rahi ho?

Palak- jiju, pehli baar akele jaungi na!

Ruhana- Hmm….lekin ye bata, tere saath koi aur bhi hai is project mein?

Palak- haan di, main aur gaurav hi hai.

Vineet- phir tum akeli kahan ho, Gaurav rahega na!

Ruhana- tum aise kaise kisi pe bhi vishwas kar sakte ho vineet?

Vineet- Relax Roo, wo palak ka dost hai ..right? thoda vishwas toh hume karna hi padega na ?

Ruhana- Par vineeet…dusri jagah pe kaise?

But was interrupted by him as he hold her hands….

"Dekho ruhana, main ye nahi kehta ki sab par vishwas karna chahiye lekin kisi par toh karna hi padega na. Aur phir gaurav palak ka dost hain, ye dono ek saath hi kaam karenge …hai na palak?"

He looked at her and she replied….

"haan jiju, ek hi project pe hoga. Baaki details kal pata chalengi."

Vineet looked at both of them…..

"Okay…toh ab tum dono har tarah ke darr ko nikal do, aur khana do yaar….bhook lagi hai."
