A/N: Thank You all for liking the story in this manner. As I always say, the love that you showed for this story is overwhelming for me because this story does not have any dramatic incident like normal stories. It is basically nothing but a collection of moments which shows the relationship between them (in a way I would love to see them). So each and every comment of yours is very endearing, very precious to me. I really don't know how to thank you guys.
[ iss chapter maine tumahri baat dhyan me rakhke likhi hai, hope u like it]
With love- Abhirikafan
It was afternoon time. They all were feeling heavenly after the fabulous lunch they had. Thanks to all the boys as today's lunch was a treat from their side! All were chit chatting while sitting in haphazard manner in the large hall. The cloudy weather somehow made the ambiance more lovable. The cozy atmosphere of the room was definitely enviable. Since last one day Diya and Adi got to know a lot other people ('uncles and aunties'), with whom they were really busy. Though at first it was tough for Diya to mingle with them, but it took only a few hours to made her enjoying the company. Vivek became their 'Funny Uncle' no wonder why! So lets go and peep into the room right now.
Daya was half lied on the couch covering himself with a light blanket. In the middle of the hall there was a large mattress, and some pillows and cushions were scattered on that. Abhijeet lied on that with a magazine in his hand. Just near his head Tarika was sitting, beside her Shreya sat. Kajal and Sachin snuggled in one corner of it, and Rajat was on the sofa Purvi was just sitting in front of him. Freddy was busy in some household work as he was the host here. Suddenly some noise attracted their attention-
Diya: Baiya baiya- funny uncle baag gaya, baiya pakro pakro (in high pitch)
Tasha: Adi dekh tera right mein gaya Vivek- Adi- chorna nahiiiii-
Vivek: HA HA HA- Main Vivek hoon- mujhe pakarna mushkil hi nahi namumkin hai!
Adi: (entering into the hall - still gasping) Funny uncle idhar aya tha? (looking at Daya) Chachu, agar woh yaha aye na, to pakarke rakhna, chorna mat! aap mere team mein ho na Chachu?
Daya: (with a sigh) Beta, ab tak to sone ki koshish kar raha tha! par ab tumhare team mein hun... jao jao,khelo. Vivek ko main pkar lunga!
Kajal: Sir, ab to aap ko bhi join karna padhega iss junior team ko!
all were laughing looking at Daya's helpless look.
then again, their laughter interrupted with a sweet voice
Diya: Pappa, aap khel rahe ho? (now she came near Daya and already started to pull his hand) Pappa, aap yahan baithke nahi khel sakte. Main samjha deti hu rule, thik hai? (she is looking damn serious now ;)) aap, baiya, chhoti aunty (Tasha) aur Bale Pappa -
Abhijeet: (cutting her) Beta, main to yaha hoon, main kaha khel raha hun aap ke saath?
Diya: (that was unexpected to her) Bale Pappa, aap mere sath nahi kheloge? (face started to become red)
Daya: (totally enjoying the scenario) Boss, ab to kuch nahi ho sakta! Tum kya apni beti ko rulayoge?(naughtily)
Abhijeet glared at him and then tried to make up
Abhijeet: Nahi nahi beta! maine aisa kab kaha? mujhe to bas pata nahi tha ke main bhi khel raha hun... isi liye...
All giggled with his comment. Diya made a 'I got that' face. Then suddenly she remembered something and ran towards him and then jumped into his lap.
Abhijeet was surprised and puzzled too. So were the rest of them.
Abhijeet: (taking her into his arm and kissing her head) beta kya hua, hain? kuch hua hai? Diya-
Diya: kal se bale pappa ek baar bhi Diya ko goudi me nahi liya (now started crying), Diya ko - su-la-ya bi nahi (sobbing)
Abhijeet was embarrassed now. Actually since the last two days there were so many people with them, Abhijeet was busy with them, not only that, Diya was also with someone or other all the time. As she was the smallest member of their team everybody wanted to spend time with her. As a result Diya did not get any time with his Bade Papa or vice verse. Now when she saw him finally, it all came to her mind. Abhijeet tried to console her hugging her tightly. He looked at Daya helplessly
Abhijeet: (in a very low tone to Daya) iss baat mein bilkul tujh pe gaya hai yeh... ab kya karu? (in sad tone) mujhe iske paas jana chahiye tha, bechari kitni ro rahi hai...
Daya: ab kya boss, jaise mujhe mana lete ho, ise bhi mana loge. Aur tum bhi sad kyun ho rahe ho? tum kya bachche ho?
At that moment Vivesha came into the room with Adi.
Tasha: Diya ko kya hua? koi chot to nahi lagi? woh ro kyu rahi hai?
Sachin: Nahi nahi, use achanak Abhijeet sir ko dekhne ke baad unka yaad aa gayi
Tasha: (confusingly) matlab?
Kajal: arre, humlog kal se usse apni bade papa se milne ka mauka hi nahi diye...
In the mean time Adi came to shreya and sat in her lap. Shrya was patting his back.
Adi: (whispering into her ear) Choti maa, ab main thodi der aap ke paas so jaun?
Shreya: neend aa rahi hai beta? chalo main sula deti hun... (to Tarika) Di, main upar isse sula deti hun. subah 5 baje se bhaga daura ja rahe hai... ab sona hi chahiye. Tum enjoy karo, main bas abhi gayi aur abhi ayi
Tarika: (smilingly) haan baba
Shreya left the room with Adi in her arm. Abhijeet was still busy making his pari asleep who was tightly hugging him.
Sachin: chalo ek break ho gaya. Break ke baad hum kuch game khelte hai
All agreed.
Kajal: aap sab baitho, main coffee banake lati hoon. uske baad start karenge
Purvi: main bhi chalti hu, chalo.
After a while in the hall all gathered
The kids were asleep now. They were arguing about what to play as usual.
Tasha: ek game khelte hai, jo kuch naya type ka hi hoga.
Kajal: kya hai, bata?
Tasha: Hum sab ek ek chit mein apne barein mein kuch clues likh ke iss bowl mein dalenge, par naam nahi likhna hai, thik hai? phir hum mein se ek jake iss se ek chit lenge, aur phir usse identify karna hoga ke woh hai kaun
Tarika: Wow... sounds interesting, hai na?
All the preparation were done. First turn was of Sachin.
Sachin took out a chit.
"1. my favourite colour is black
2. I can swim well
3. My favourite CID officer: Freddy Sir"
After reading the chit aloud a smile crept on his face. The whole team were enjoying the clues. Most of them got the answer already.
Sachin: (pointing at Vivek) Its vivek
All clapped.
Shreya: Please please ab mujhe jana hai... jaun?
Shreya again took out the next chit.
"1. My favourite food: Palak Paneer aur bhindi ka sabzi
2."
Shreya: (even before completing the next 2 clues) Arre, yeh to mera jeej hai!
All were too excited!
Purvi: arre wah Shre! bas ek hi clue me pehchan liya!
Daya: Kya yaar! tum thoda harder clues nahi de sakte the?
Abhijeet: (shyly) mujhe laga tha yehi hard hai!
Shreya: (Surprised) JEEJ! aap ko yeh hard laga tha!
Abhijeet: Arre, to mujhe thodi hi pata tha ki merawala chit tujhe milega!
Tarika: Abhijeet, iss clue se maximum log hi tumhe pehchan leta!
Abhijeet: Thik hai, thik hai, tumhari baari bhi ayega, dekhte hai...
Next Rajat took out chit.
"1.Mujhe chocolate aur ice cream bahut zyada pasand hai
2."
Rajat: Arre yaar! yeh meri Biwi hai... yeh to waise hi bahut easy tha, upar se hand writing bhi..
Purvi: nahi nahi, yeh sara sar cheating hai, aap handwriting se nahi bol sakte
Rajat: Arre, mujhe pata chal gaya to main kya karun?
Daya: Bhai, yeh kisi ka bhi galti nahi! Purvi, yeh tumhara bad luck hai, ki tumhari chit Rajat ko hi mili
Vivek: Sir, yeh hai pyar ki takat-
All started laughing. But at the same time
Kajal: (to Sachin) Sachin, mujhe thoda sa chakkar aa raha hai, pata nahi kyun...
Sachin: (concerned tone)Tarika se ekbar baat karun?
Kajal nodded as yes. Sachin conveyed that to Tarika. Immediately all got tensed.
Tasha: kya hua hai Kajal ko?
Tarika: pehle mujhe dekhne to do, thakan ke wajah se bhi ho sakta hai.
She started to check her pulse. Her face became concerned. All were tensed.
Tarika: (to all) Mujhe bas thodi der ke liye Kajal se kuch baat karni hai akele mein, please
Abhijeet: tum aise kyun bol rahe ho? kya baat hai? serious kuch?
Tarika: Abhijeet please... main bas kuch hi der mein batati hun.
All left the room with tensed face. Sachin was in absolute silence. After 5 minutes Tarika came out and directly went to Sachin.
Sachin: (tensed) Kya hua hai Tarika?
Tarika: (smiled) Diya ke bhai ya behen anewala hai
Sachin was dumbstruck. All were excited!
Sachin: K-k-k-ya!
Rajat pat his back.
Rjata: Are bhai congrats!
Shreya: Wow! yeh trip to memorable ho gaya.
All were on cloud nine with this news. Sachin rushed into the room and without a single word he just hugged Kajal who was already shedding tear on his shirt.
