"No! No! No! We are going by train!" I shouted.

Ameera,mom and everyone; all of us are debating that by which mean we are going to travel. They all are saying by air and me,by train.

"But it will take less time." Mom reasoned.

"But train will be fun! Gup shup,games, scenarios, pleaseeeeee." I joined my hands I looked at her "Ameera.Train is fun flights are boring. "

She smiled "Yeah right!" And jumped of the chair putting hers arms on my shoulder.

"Are." My mom looked at her in disbelief "Milgaye dono phir! Ab kiski chalne wali hai." She shook her head and declared that we are going by train.

We laughed and high fived "Full on masti!"

I sat with my laptop and booked 5 tickets to Mumbai,day after tomorrow.

"Bhai is on skype!" I announced.

"Hey! Kya haal?" He asked wiggling his eyebrows at us.

"Just booked the tickets!" I clapped my hands like a kid.

"Hola!" Ameera shouted peeping over my shoulder.

"Churail, tu bhi yahi hai?" He made a disgusted face,Ameera pouted and we laughed. They never miss a chance to fight!

"Kaisa hai mera baccha?" Mom asked coming in the frame.

"Main thik hu ammi,aap kaisi hain?" He asked.

"Main bhi thik hu."

"Aunty bhi hai." I said moving the laptop in her direction.

"Assalam Alaikum" he greeted.

"Walaikum As Salaam. Khairiyat meri jaan"

"Jii.Mubarak ho." He congratulated her on Ameera's success.

Oh God! Itni urdu...maine toh marjana hai. I don't follow a particular language, I can use four different languages in a single sentences. I laughed at my thoughts then I heard my brother saying "Shaanu and I have decided to throw party when we will come back." He told us.

"That's great!" Ameera and I cheered together.

Party!!!

"Where's Shimara?" He asked about bhabhi.

"Went to see her newborn nephew and your kids are at tuition. " I said before he asked.

" I will call when everyone will be at home,okay?" I asked and he nodded. We bid bye and then shut the laptop.

Ameera and aunty left after awhile. Papa came back with Chinese cuisine.

"Chinese!" I jumped like a kid. My favorite. Ah! That spicy smell. My stomach started grumbling.

"Ummm! Bhook lag gayi...jaldi..." I cried.

"Celebration baki tha." He said and then looked at me "Let me get a seat girl! Packet dekhte hi bhook lagi, bhook lagi." And kept the packet on kitchen's slap. I sat there folding my arms over my chest and pouting like a kid.

After 10 min Mom heated up the dishes and served everyone. "Chicken Momo!" Arisha took one from my plate.

"That's mine!" I snatched back.

"Titu dona!" She pouted. I shook my head "Chup chap spring roll khao." I pointed at her plate. No sharing please!

"Ammi Dadi,dekhien na." She pouted.

"Warisha." She gave me 'grow up' wala look. I stuck out my tongue at Arisha and tossed one momo on her plate "Take! Waise bhi nazar laga di hogi."

My mom shook her head at me giving a disapproving look.

"Titu,mera?" Arsh asked.

"Lo! Sab tum dono hi lelo!" I said folding my hands again. What is this! Sabko wahi chahiye jo mere pass hai huh!

"Titu ko khane do." Bhabhi said as she gave him a bite from hers.

***

"Dhyaan rakhna apna aur baccho ka bhi ." Mummy told bhabhi and ruffled her grandchildren's hair.

"Have a safe journey. Allah hafiz." She wished.

Arsh and Arisha kissed my cheeks "Titu,chocolate laoge?" Arsh asked and I nodded.

"Titu,Sanam ko bolna mera naam lene ke liye." Arisha said with her little eyes twinkling like stars.I laughed "Haa bol dungi." She is a Sanamian too. From the age of three,now she is six.

I hung my back pack on my shoulder and Papa pulled the trolley. We took a cab to station. Ameera and aunty are coming there directly.

When we reached there, we saw Ameera was taking her luggage out from the cab.

"Heya!" We greeted each other and together we walked where our train was standing. Mom and Aunty were busy in their chat. I helped Ameera with her luggage. We settled on our seat and kept the luggage on its place. We had fifteen minutes so, Ameera and I stepped out. Ameera walked to nearest store to buy some snacks and I stood in front of book cart. Eyeing the collection, is there something I can read....

"Don't you dare to touch any book!" I turned after hearing that warning from Ameera. She came with a bottle if cold drink and packets of chips "No books!" She repeated. I frowned at her but she held my hand and we got inside the train.

The train blew its last whistle and then it started gaining speed. We played a few game,while Papa chose to listen to Md.Rafi.

At night Ameera and I sat on our window seat and shared our excitement.

"Have you told anything about meeting Sanam to your mom?" She asked.

"No. I mean ..what will I say? Mom I swapped with my phone with Sanam and then got drunk and I don't remember what I did last night. Not something to share with your mom,right?" I completed and she chuckled shaking her head "Insane." And after 3:30 am she fell asleep.

The train stopped at a particular station. It was 5 am in the morning. I decided to call him. I dialled his number.

"Itni subah?" He answered the call after two rings. That means he was awake but itni subah?

"Train ruki hai,so I decided to call you. What are you doing? " I asked.

"Jogging with Keshav."

Oh....."Fitness freak." I mumbled.

"Suna maine." He chuckled.

"So?" Isliye to bola tha. I chuckled.

"Train so utri to nahi hona? I won't be there,standing like Raj and this isn't a toy train. " he laughed,I joined him too.

"Tujhe dekha to yeh Jaana Sanam,pyaar hota hai dewaana Sanam." I said the line and he laughed again.

"Kisi ke upar gir mat jana. I won't like that." He said teasing me. I blushed,thank God he cannot see me.

"Main kisi par nahi,bas tum par girti hu." I said in flirting tone leaning on the train wall. I heard his melodic chuckle and he replied "I like that. You know when I saw you that day."

"Which day?" I asked him.

"The same,when we visited that amusement park." He reminded and I nodded "Haa..so,what's with that day?"

"You were looking beautiful. " he said and making me blush again. I bit my bottom lip, smiling and blushing like a teenaged girl.

"Teen saal baad bolna yaad aya?"

"Us din to meri bolti band kar di tha tumne."

God! He is flirting too. I let out a giggle and he chuckled too.

"Flirt kar rahe ho Mr.Sanam Puri?" I asked him raising my eyebrow, though he can't see it.

"Haa..Ab jab samne wali itna koshish kar rahi hai, mera bhi to kuch farz banta hai."

"Main koi flirt-wlirt nahi kar rahi." I denied.

"Achaaa....my lovely lady I wanted --" he was saying in such sweet yet flirty tone that I cut him in mid (against my will)

"Stop it Sanam.." I requested covering my eyes from my free hand "You are making me blush."

"I wish I was there to see that rosy cheeks. "

"Sanam...! Seriously stop." I warned and laughed. Cheeks red as a tomato or strawberry, raspberry and anything or everything red in this word! Mera game mujhpar hi bhari padh gaya.

"Acha,acha thik hai. But ek last question."

"Kya?"

"Do you remember me calling you 'my girl'?" He asked and I smiled and nodded "Yes, I do remember that. I wanted to jump at that moment, you know." I said remembering that day and smiling like an idiot!

"Can't wait to see you." He said in low whispered.

"Dying to meet you." I confessed

The train blew the whistle "You should Go to your seat now." He said,must have listened the whistle.

"On my way. Don't worry." I said walking through the passage. "Say Good morning to Keshav from my side!" I told him.

"Bol dunga but tum thik se chali jau seat tak and don't fall." He chuckled and I laughed "Jo hukum."

"Go..o.." the call got disconnected as the train started to move.

What was he trying to say? Stupid train! Stupid network! I walked to my seat stomping my feet.

"Kaha thi?" Papa asked as I reached my there .

"Just roaming around. " I replied sitting beside him.

At 10 in the morning our train stopped at Mumbai.

"We are finally here!" Ameera whistled as we walked out of the station. We took a cab in which Mummy,papa and aunty sat. And Ameera and I sat in her company's car which they sent for her.

"Andheri? Kaise address hain yaha ke." Ameera said,rolling her eyes.

Ameera was talking with her fiance and I decided to make a video for my YouTube vlog. I took out my camera from my purse.

"Hola Lovelies! So, I am finally in the city of dreams! " I waved to camera and turned it towards the window. "A busy city,isn't it? And say hi to Ameera!" I turned my camera to Ameera and she waved too." She is busy with someone. " I winked.

"So guys! Will see ya all soon." I flied a kiss and then turned it off. I was looking at the beauty of the city all along the ride from station to our new flat.

We reached the building and helped ourself with our luggage. Ameera's flat is at 11th floor,so, we took the lift.

When we got inside the flat,everyone landed on sofa or couch. I decided to have a look of our bedroom. "So here is my new bedroom. " I turned the camera to capture it "which I am going to share with my cousin. Let's see what's my view from here." I said as I opened the window. It had a view of garden of the building "Nice " I commented at the sight. There was cemented path way with grasses on either side. Swings for children and two-three iron benched and a circular marbled place to sit. It was simply awesome! Greenery, trees,flower pots. I got a place to spend my morning and evening.

After couple of hour of rest, our family helped two of us to unpack our luggage. Mom and Aunty helped us to organise our wardrobe. Because neither me nor Ameera would be able to do that.

In evening we all decided to visit beach.I took a small video clip at the beach too,with me and Ameera splashing water on each other.

Our family will leave, on day after tomorrow.

At night I edited the video and posted it on my channel. I was so tired that I didn't even knew when sleep engulfed me.

A/N- Kaash yeh story real hoti 😭😭😭😭 Wish I was able to meet Sanam.😍😍😍

(P.S - I can't Or dunno how to flirt and so, I am very sorry for making you read the worst flirting convo of the era 🙏🙏🙈)
