Warning : pure fluff and not so great chapter.

Stolen moments of joy

They both stand still for a while hugging each other, feeling contented.

Tarika, whispering : Kabhi Aise mazak mat karna..

Abhi : Nahi.. Kabhi nai karunga.

A few minutes pass. Tarika begins to feel shy and slightly parts from him, her head still hung low. He tries to ease the situation by joking around.

Abhi : Waise gussa jaldi aajata hai aapko. Kya karti agar main kisi aur k naam leta? Shayad dande se maarti mujh ko hein?

Tarika, in a serious tone : Nahi. Pehle usko maardaalti, fir khud ko..

Abhi, hurrying to place his finger over her lips : Nahi nahi. Main mazak karra tha. Kaisi baatein karri hai? Aisa kabhi mat kehna..

He pulls her into a hug.

Abhi, hugging her : Nai jeepaunga main aap k bina..

She nods and mumbles a sorry. He teases her again.

Abhi : Myy God! Kitni possessive hai aap?

She laughs. He joins her laughing along.

It was her turn to tease him.

Tarika, smiling : Waise ek baat toh hai jo meri samajh se bahar hai..

Abhi : Kya?

Tarika : yahi ki aaj itne saalon baad, kisi ne himmat ki apne dil ki baat kehne ki..

Abhi, embarrassed : Ah woh.. Is mein kaunsi nayi baat hai. Aap toh pehle se hi jaanti hai na ki main aapse…

Tarika, blushing : hmm lekin fir bhi. Aisa kya khaas hai aaj ke din jo tum seedhe Arjun ki tarah kehne chale aaye.

Abhi, back in flirty tone : Ab karein bhi toh kya karein? Aap aaj kal kuch zyada hi khubsurat lagrahi hai ki, aapse door raha nai jaata.

Tarika, thinking: jhoot. Kise patha confess karne k liye thoda sa jealousy ki zarrurat hai.

Abhi, thinking : Haye meri pari.. Kaise jaane deta tumhe. Kal ko koi aur Sanjyog aagaya toh?

Tarika, sensing his insecurity : Kal hi nai Abhijeet.. Kabhi bhi koi nai aasakta humare beech.

He's stunned. Did she jus read his mind? Of course she would have.

Tarika : tum se yeh baat sunne k liye main zindgi bhar wait kar sakti thi.

A genuine smile makes its way on his lips. And he feels blessed. He has never imagined he'd be so involved with her, let alone think his feelings would deepen this much. He just heard people say somewhere there is this special person made for you. He never believed it, but now she makes him believe it's true. She's the one for him. An angel sent by god. What would he do without her? He'd be lonely, So very lonely. Sure Daya has always made him feel at home. But she too became an important part of his life, So much important that his life would be nothing without her.

Abhi, teary eyed: thank you. Meri zindgi mein aane keliye, mujhe samajhne keliye, mera saat dene keliye aur.. aur mujhe jeena fir se sikhaane keliye, pyar ka sahi matlub samjhane keliye. I love.. I love you.

Tarika, with a heart melting smile : I.. feels shy.. you too!

Abhi, back to teasing : mujhe tik se sunayi nai diya.. aap ne kuch kaha?

Tarika , deciding to divert him: Chorro na. Waise kya keh rahe the tum. Aaj kal? Sirf aaj kal khubsurat lag rahi hu main? Pehle nai lagti kya?

She folds her arms showing mock anger and he reaches out to her.

Abhi : Are mar gaye. Aap humesha khubsurat hai. Aur aaj bilkul pari lag rahi hai iss saadi mein..

Tarika : Accha Ji. Isliye itna pyar aaraha hai aaj..

Abhi : haan toh. Magar Pyar toh humesha aata hai. Koi shak hai?

They share a cute eyelock, their eyes conveying so many unsaid feelings to each other. Their moment is broken by the waiter who arrives there. Abhi orders food and waiter leaves.

Tarika chuckles as she remembers their dinner date few years ago.

Abhi, confused : Kyu has rahi hai aap?

Tarika, laughing : Nai nahi. Kuch nai..

Abhi : Arey boliye hum b hasna chahenge..

Tarika : Woh.. Woh tumhe yaad hai na. Doh saal pehle hum dinner karre the tumhare ghar pe.

Abhi : Haan.

Tarika : Aur kitna achha khaana banaaya tumne. Mazaa agaya. I mean khaana banaana koi tum se seekhe. Gas on karo, bartan rakho aur..

She's laughing hard and he laughs seeing her.

Tarika, goes on: Aur.. restaurant walon ko phone lagaao.

Abhi : Hmm hasiye. Khoob hasiye. Waise, acchi tarah yaad hai aapko sab kuch.

Tarika : Haan yaad kaise nai hoga?

Abhi : Achha ji. Toh aapko yeh bhi yaad hoga maine uss din aapse kya kaha tha.

She blushes as she remembers shaadi k baad seekh jaounga n his indirect proposal.

Tarika : Achha kya? Mujhe kuch yaad nai aaraha hai ji..

Abhi : Aapko jhoot bolna aata nai hai ji. Maine kaha tha shaadi k baad khaana banaana seekh jaounga. Isliye aap mera mazak nai udaa sakti.

Tarika : Oh aur Kaun sikhayega tumhe Daya sir?

Abhi, flirty tone : Arey nahi. Meri wife aur kaun..

Tarika, blushing : tumhari wife?

Abhi : Haan..

Tarika : Agar ussne aapko nai sikhaaya aur aapka mazak udaaya toh?

Abhi : Arey nahi. Woh aisi nahi hai. Bohot achhi hai. Aur yu pighal jaati hai..

Tarika : Itna confidence..

Abhi : Haan full confidence hai mujhe aap k upar..

Before Tarika could feel shy, waiter returns serving their food. Abhi thanks him. They sit.

Tarika is amazed how he knew her so well. Everything served was her favourite. She notices he's not eating as she looks up.

Tarika : Kya hua? Khaoge ki nahi?

Abhi : Hmm.. khaunga. Agar aap mujhe khilaaye toh.

Tarika : Haha. Very funny. Jaldi khaalo. Bhool gaye kal office bhi jaana hai. Gyarah baje hue hai dekho.

He's adamant n she gives in feeding him a spoonful of palao. She is about to feed him another and he bends away from her. She's sitting across the table across him, struggling to reach his mouth.

Tarika : Kya hai yeh. Abhijeet jaldi karo na hume wapas jaana hoga.

Abhi, hurt tone : Badi jaldi hai aapko wapis jaane ki.. Nahi aap yaha mere paas aake khiladijiye. Warna main nai khaanewala.

Tarika : Hmfph.

She goes to stand beside him and offers him food.

Tarika : yeh lo..

Abhi : uhmm.. Pehle aap yaha baithiye..

He pulls her down. She squeaks as she finds herself sitting in his lap, facing him. Her eyes widen at the sudden turn of events. She has been this close to him only in her dreams.

Tarika, blushing like a teen : Abh.. Abhijeet! Kya karre ho?

Abhi : Arey main baithe rahu aur aap khadi rahengi toh kaisa chalega?

She smiles looking way.

Abhi : Ab muskuraati rahengi ya mujhe khilaayenge bhi?

She feeds him a spoonful and shivers as he wraps his arms around her waist.

Tarika : Abhijeet! Kya hai yeh.. Chodo mujhe koi dekhlega toh kya sochega?

Abhi, looking around : Mujhe toh koi nai dikh raha. Aur koi aayega bhi nai. Sab ko jo bhagaadi ..

Oops he spilled the beans.

Tarika : Kya?

Abhi, fumbling: Ah woh..

Tarika : Kya Abhijeet? Sirf apneliye tumne bichaare logon ko yaha se bhagaaya, tabhi toh mujhe ajeeb laga ki yaha kyu koi nai hai. Ab samjhrahi hu main..

Abhi : Arey relax. Banduk nai dikhaaya maine kisi ko. Yeh jagah maine book kia hai..

Tarika, surprised : yeh pura restaurant? Lekin.. Kyu itna kharcha..

Abhi : Kyu kya Tarika Ji? Aapkeliye meri jaan haasir hai..

Tarika, smiling widely : Waise sahi kaha tha maine uss din. Lucky hai woh larki jiski tumse shaadi hogi. Aur main kitne ache karam kiye honge joh tum mujhe mile ho, tumhara pyar mila hai…

Few tears escape her eyes n he brushes them off.

Abhi : Lucky toh main hu. Aur agar aap aisi hi mere upar baitke mujhe khaana nai khilaaogi toh jaldi unlucky hojaunga. Bohot bhari hai aap.. dikhne mein slim lagti hai. Fir..

She glares n hits him playfully, then feeds him completely. When he's full, he feeds her too. Tarika was sure she would never ever forget that night. Little did she know, there's more to come. Tarika keeps smiling occasionally pulling his leg going on and on about how jealous he was that morning and how she'd have strangled him if he had loved someone else.

Abhi : Jealous? Aur main? Kabhi nahi..

Tarika, laughing : Abhi tum jealous feel karre the! Mujhe mere bachpan k dost k saat dekh ke..

Abhi : Haso haso. Waise woh.. woh gaya ki nai?

Tarika : Nahi..

Abhi feels restless.

Tarika : Are baba mazak tha. Woh chala gaya..

He smiles, they discuss some general stuff. Abhijeet feels like he was the luckiest man. He is glad he confessed. Had he not, he'd have missed her smile, her blush, her anger and he'd have never known how much she loved him. She is laughing, he smiles seeing her.

11pm :

They prepare to leave. Abhi is driving the car, Tarika sitting beside him enjoying the view. A comfortable silence fills the scene. Few minutes pass. Suddenly there is some problem.

Their car screeches to a halt. They get down. Abhi feels something went wrong with the engine. Tarika is worried about the situation while Abhi softly says main hu na. It begins to rain. She jumps to open the car door n get inside but he holds her hand stopping her.

She smiles.

Tarika : Kya karre ho Abhijeet?

Abhi was feeling bad how he made her cry a while ago. He needed to do whatever it takes him to make her super happy. He wanted to make this date even more memorable.

Abhi : Kuch nai. Aap dance karna chahengi mere saat?

She chuckles.

Tarika : Abhijeet hum bheeg jayenge. Aur yeh Kya.. tumhe dance aur barish dono pasand nai na?

Abhi : Haan par aapko pasand hai. Aur

Tarika : are wah inspector saab ko bohot pyar aaraha hai mere upar..

Abhi : haan aapko kitna sataaya maine.. I wanna do something to make up for that.

Tarika : Par woh toh tum kar chuke ho aur.. yaha kaise dance karenge? Beech sadak pe? Aur music bhi nai hai.

Abhi holds her both hands. She smiles noticing it was just deserted road having a dead end. Did Abhi purposefully..

Abhi : Music toh hawaa mein hai.

Hai tu kaha, kaha hai tu

Ajau mein jaha hai tu

Is dil mein dhadkano mein

Hain tu hi tu...

Link : /watch?v=sfJGIYSEWcc

She frowns, then smiles. He twirls her around and hugs her from behind. She shivers both due to his closeness and cold.

Hai jaan tu, jaha hai tu

Mein hu jaha waha hai tu

Kaise tujhe bata doon...

Kya kya hai tu..

He starts humming a tune swaying sideways and makes her sway along with him. It's raining really heavy, they are drenched from head to toe almost instantaneously. He turns her around and gently pushes back her wet hair sprawled across her face using one hand while other is firmly wrapped around her waist. She runs managing to get out of his grip . He chases her around. She hides behind a tree but he catches her. She smiles giving up. They hold hands, enjoying the rain.

Yaar ha tu , pyaar hai tu

Arzoo tu, zoostaju tu

Zindagi tu , bandegi tu

Rab mera tu, sab mera tu

He pulls her into a hug. She shivers.

Abhi : thand lagri hai? Aur nai bheegna aapko?

She nods. He removes his coat and holds it over both of them like an umbrella. ( Imagine aashiqui 2 scene here ) . He leans closer, their noses touching. She has her eyes closed. He closes his eyes. They both stand that way listening to the sound of water droplets combined with steady beating of their hearts.

Adhi adhoore jaisi lagti hai zindagani

Jo saath mein mere na tu

Karte hai har ghari hum khudse baate tumhari

Har dum khayalon mein hai tu

It was pure bliss. Both of them could feel each other's emotion. A strong breeze knocks them, Tarika shivers letting out a small squeak. He realizes she needs the coat more than him, stepping back he wraps his coat around her shoulders. He the gently lifts up her pallu and drapes it around her head. She smiles once again, her eyes reflecting unspoken love she has for him.

Aja tujhe bata doon...

Pass a tujhe baata doon..

Phir se tujhe bata doon

Kya kya hai tu...

Tarika, shivering a bit : Isse nahi chalega Abhijeet. Geele hogaye hum. mujhe.. mujhe ghar jaana hai. Mera mann karra hai ki main isi tarah rahu tumhare saat magar.. yeh mausam..

Abhi : Gaadi kharab hai. Aur ghabraa kyu rahi ho? Main hu na..

Yaar hai tu pyaar hai tu

Arzoo tu, zoostaju tu

Zindagi tu, bandegi tu

Rab mera tu, sab mera tu

Sab mera tu...sab mera...

They see a hut a little distance from the road. Abhi pushes his car to a side and locks it. He takes her hand into hisand guides her to the place. He lights a fire using the firewood, matches present there.

Abhi : Lagta hai kisi ne camping ki hai yaha. Chalo humara kaam hogaya.

Tarika, feeling cold : Main zara aur firewood leke aati hu.

She climbs up over a rickety ladder while trying to grab the firewood she loses her balance only to fall into his arms.

Tere liye bana mein

Mere liye bane tu

Sara jahaan ye jaanle

She opens her eyes finds him smiling down at her. She carefully places her feet on ground as he puts her down. She glances up at him. Cupping her face, he leans closer and she dashes off to standstaring at the door blushing.

Dil me tumhi base ho
Sasoon mein ghul gaye ho
Tum to ho barkar jaan se

He ruffles his hair, amused at his own antics. No wonder a reserved person like him is behaving this way. Love is magical. A person can never help but be drawn to his loved one.

He moves to place his hand over her shoulder from behind. She tenses up, he quickly pulls back shaking his head.

Abhi, smiling : Arey yaha aake baithiye na. It's warm near the fire.

She turns and smiles back. She sits on the broken sofa a little far from him. He smiles at her antics. He finds her shivering and scoots closer. Wrapping his arm around her shoulder he hugs her from one side so that she could feel warm. Resting her head on his chest, she snuggles closer.

Yaar hai tu, pyaar hai tu

Arzoo tu, zoostaju tu

Zindagi tu, bandagi tu

Rab mera tu, sab mera tu...

Though she feels a little awkward, she manages to thank him.

Abhi : thank you kisliye Ji. And Nervous ho?

Tarika : thoda sa..

Abhi : Arey Nervous Kyu ho Tarika Ji? Main hi hu..

Tarika : Haan Par.. Nervous in a good way, I can say. tum mere itne paas ho. Aur hum yaha is anjaan jagah mein.. akele..

He chuckles observing the blush spreading across her cheeks.

Tarika : But I can get used to it.. u know..

He smiles as she looks down.

Abhi : Uhmm.. I know u will. Bandhi hui ho aap mujhse

Tarika: Nahi main kisi se bandhi hui nahi hu. Par main chahti hu ki main bandhi rahu tum se, aur tum isi tarah mere paas raho..

Zindagi tu, bandagi tu

Rab mera tu, sab mera tu...

Abhi : na uh. Sardi hojayegi mujhe aur aapko bhi..

she glares at him n he asks her to continue.

Tarika : Aur aise mauke mujhe baar baar mile..

Abhi : Kaise mauke?

Tarika, blushing : tumhare saat waqt ghusarne ke mauke..

Abhi : Oh woh mauke toh aapko milte rahenge. Aap ko apni puri zindgi jo bitaani hai mere saat..

Sab mera tu..
She smiles and hugs him tighter n slowly dozes off into deep slumber.

Five AM :

Abhijeet wakes up, cursing himself for dozing off. He should have kept his eyes open. He could he be so careless? He glances down at Tarikas sleeping form. He checks his watch and feels relieved he had dozed off just for half an hour which is not bad. He lifts her up in his arms. Gently placing her down in the car, he apologises.

Abhi : Sorry Tarika Ji. Aapke saat thoda aur waqt ghusaarne keliye aapse jhut bolna pada. Gaadi toh theek hai. I wish aapko sardi na hojaye

She stirs in her sleep. He proceeds to drive.

Six AM :

He gently wakes her up. She's confused for a second.

Tarika : humm.. Main yaha?

He Shrugs.

Abhi : Woh, Gadi tik hogayi. Aur aap apne ghar k saamne hai.

Tarika remembers all events of prev night and smiles.

Tarika : lekin mechanic mila kahan se aur.. aao na coffee peeke jao.

Abhi : Maine khud gaadi tik kiya. Aap thodi der araam kijiye. Bureau mein milte hai..

She watches as he pulls his car out of drive way.

Eleven AM, Bureau.

CID team is in forensic lab. Salunkhe, Tarika as usual observing a dead body.

Abhijeet, with a cute smile : Kaise hui iski maut? Salunkhe saab.. arey aap nai. Tarika Ji aap bataayiye na.

Daya, Pankaj, Rajat, Purvi smile. Salunkhe fumes.

Tarika, smiling : Haan. Woh Abhijeet iski maut.. *sneeze* doob k marne se nai.. *sneeze* magar.. *sneeze*

Abhi : Arey aapko dhyaan rakhna chaiye.. *sneeze* Sardi hogayi na? Aur aap *sneeze* Main *sneeze*

Daya and everyone raise a brow.

Abhi : Arey *sneeze*.. sab aise kyu dekh rahe hai.. main bhi insaan hu. Mujhe bhi sardi.. *sneeze* ho sakti hai..

Daya rolls his eyes. Pankaj is confused.

Pankaj : Purvi dono ko ek saat Sardi..

Purvi, smiling : Na jaane yeh kaise hogaya..

ACP barges in. Salunkhe helps Tarika wid her explanation and everyone leave.

Wiping her nose, Tarika finds a piece of paper left on the table. She opens it and smiles.

It was a note addressed to her from Abhi.

Aaj shaam ko office ke baad, adrag chai aapke ghar mein? Darwaza ki taraf dekho.

She looks up. He's standing by the door with Daya behind him. He mouths what. She mumbles a yes and nods. He grins and leaves the lab only to bump into Daya.

Daya : Kya yar apna pyar milgaya toh bhulaa diya iss dost ko? Kal puri raat gayab hogaye..

Abhi : Arey woh gadi kharab hogai kal. Aur mere dost, tujhe bhala kaise bhul sakta hu main? Aaj luch karenge saat mein ok?

Daya : Sirf lunch? Matlab aaj shaam ko fir se?

Abhi jus hits him playfully. Setting all this aside he once again slips into duty mood. That is till he meets her again of course.

Meanwhile Salunkhe Saab is confused.

Salunkhe, thinking : Dono ko ek saat sardi kaise hogayi aur kal raat ko uska phone bhi nai lagraha tha.. Patha lagaana parega ki chakkar kya hai!

A/N : I know this chapter is awful one. Hai na? This is supposed to be last chapter but I decided to add some more. I want to add another part which will have Salunkhe sir ka planning to expose Abhirika. Do u want me to continue? Lemme know.

Thanks for reading. Do drop in a review plz.
