Shiva's office

"Shiva" Shiva looked up from the file he was checking to the person who called him and greeted him.

Shiva : Hi Papa, Aap kab aye, aap ne mujhe call kyu nahi kiya? Main aap dono ko airport se receive kar leta, aur maa thik hai?

Darshan : Ha aaj hi Puri se wapas aya, Oye, main abhi bhi bohot strong hu, itna akela nahi aa sakta! Kuch bhi, Aur bahu kaise hai, Uska thik se khayal rakh raha hai ya phir kaam mein hi doob gaya?

Shiva pouted and looked at him : Sab thik hai, Ishanvi bhi thik hi hai, wo gai hai clinic mein, mujhe pehle batayi nahi thi, isliye nahi ja paya, maa aur aap ab ghar jao, main driver ko bol deta hoon.

Darshan nodded slightly and left the place.

After that, Shiva's PA, Shalini, entered his cabin.

Shiva : Good morning Shalini, Aaj ka kya schedule hai?

Shalini: Good morning Sir. Aaj Mr Tripathi ke sath 11 am mein hamara upcoming launch ke barein mein ek meeting hai, aur 1 pm mein kuch foreign clients se saath aapka online meeting hoga, haa aur 5 pm mein aapko Mr. Sharma ki event mein jana hoga, special invitation kia hai, ek music workshop bhi hoga, to aap chief guest ban kar jayenge.

Shiva: Ok thanks, you may leave now.

Shalini left.

Shiva: Foreign clients ke sath meeting karke nikaal jayunga, Ishanvi ke liye ek gift bhi to lena hoga, raat ko surprise date arrange karne ke chakkar mein gift lana hi bhul gaya. Uske baad workshop chala jaunga.

Scene shifts to Raavi's school

Principal: Dekho Raavi, ye tumhare liye bohot bara opportunity hai, itna reputed companies rahenge waha, bohot influential log bhi rahenge, Aur Mr John bhi aya nhi hai. Isliye main tumhe recommend kiya. Tum itni achhe gaati ho, aur music therapy mein ek course bhi to tumne kia, to aapne potential ko utilize karo.( Mr Sharma is Raavi's principal's husband)

Raavi frowned at her : Par ma'am maine aise workshop kabhi kiya hi nahi, kuch gadbad hua to mere sath sath school ka name bhi kharab hoga. Main aisa wo bhi bina notice ka itna bara responsibility kaise le sakti hoon?

Principal while checking her phone: Dekho maine tumhari naam de diya hai, to tumhe ye karni hogi. Abh jao jake prepare karo, abhi bhi thora time hai.

Raavi glared at her ( when she was checking her phone) and then left her room.

Raavi : Ki ossobhho mohila! ( What an annoying lady)

Samajhti kya hai khud ko, aise bina bataye meri naam de di, aab main ye sab kaise karungi. Wo John last moment mein nahi aya to main kya karu? She huffed and started preparing for the workshop.

Scene ends.

After the meeting, Shiva went to a jewelry shop and bought a beautiful diamond necklace for Ishanvi. While leaving, he saw a cute baby showpiece in the nearby gift shop. He thought about buying it too. Just as he was about to pick it up, a girl grabbed it. He got annoyed and looked at the intruder.

Shiva: Ye maine pehle dekha hai, wapas kariye.

Raavi : Ondho naki! ( Are u blind), dikhai nhi dia, maine pehle liya hai.

Shiva: What ondho, kya ajeeb language mein baat kar rahi hai aap, dekhiye, aap ko pata nahi hai main kaun hoon, aisa zabardasti maat kariye.

Raavi: Kyun? Aap ko pata nahi ki aap kaun hai, mujhe kyu puch raha hai, aur mujhe dhamki dena ki koishish bhi mat karna, ukhad lijiye jo ukhar na hai, main darti nahi hoon kisi se, ye showpiece to main hi lungi.

After that, Raavi kept the money and hurriedly left the place. Shiva also kept the money and started running after her. They were fighting like school kids. The shopkeeper looked at them with wide eyes in surprise and then concentrated on his work.

Shiva: Ruko, kaha bachke bhagogi, wo mera hai.

Raavi : Ki obhodro lok re baba ( What a rude guy)

Shiva: Phir se kya boli, ye kya alien ladki hai, kaise language mein baat karti hai.

Raavi : Leave it, u won't understand.

Shiva tried to snatch it from her but she dodged him and moved away.

Suddenly the shopkeeper appeared before them.

Shopkeeper: Sorry, Abhi mila, Ye aur ek piece hai mere paas, lijiye.

Shiva : To ye pehle bol dete to ye pagal ladki ke piche bhagna nahi padta. Main aise velle nahi rehta hoon. Kitna important kaam tha, late ho gaya.

Muttering something in his breath, Shiva sighed and walked out.

Raavi: Nije pagol hoye amake abar pagol bolche,(Being mad himself, He is calling me "mad") urgg. Khadus kahika.

Scene ends.

Shiva was hella irritated with Raavi. While driving to the avenue ( of Mr Sharma's event) he was bashing her in his mind.

Suddenly, he got distracted by his phone caller's tune. By looking at the caller's id, his anger suddenly disappeared and a thin smile crept on his face. It was Ishanvi.

Shiva : Hi sweetheart, clinic se wapas aayi? How was your day?

Ishanvi swallowed nervously. She has decided that she will inform Shiva today, but hearing his sweet voice, she got worried thinking about his reactions, how will he accept such a horrible thing!. She gulped down a sob and tried to answer him casually.

Ishanvi : Ha, sab thik hai, kuch regular check up hi thi, Dr busy rehgi next week, to pehle chali gai. Tum thik ho?

Shiva: Thik to nhi tha, but aab thik hoon, Aaj aane mein thora late hoga, driver ko ek location message kar dunga, tum aa jana, kuch important kaam hai.

Actually, now Ishanvi wanted to spend most of her time with Shiva. She has somehow accepted her fate so she wanted to make the most out of it. She nodded confusingly and replied: I feel your work is getting in the way of us having quality time together. Aaj late kyu hoga?

Shiva : I'm really sorry, tumhe to pata hi hai kaam ka kitna pressure hai. Aaj to ek sath ghumenga na raat mein. Achhe se ready hona.

(Shiva in mind) : And I will definitely make it up today.

Ishanvi : It’s strange how time flies, right?

Shiva : Aise kyun bol rahe ho?

Ishanvi: Nhi, bas, aise hi. You know what, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I will cherish you till my last breath.

Shiva smiled, saying : Same here. Love u. Abh rakta hoon, baad mein baat karenge.

Ishanvi : Love u too. Bye, Apna dhyan rakhna.
