Reaching home Anubhav went to his room to get freshen up when Ramdhari came behind him asking.... "Anubhav bhaiya.... bade maalik ka phone aaya tha...... aap theek toh hai na...... unhe bohot chinta ho rahi thi ki......"

Before Rohan and Anubhav replied heard Nanu's loud voices coming from living hall...... they both rushed out knowing how much worried Nanu must be now......

Nanu entered home worriedly calling loudly: Anubhav.... Anubhav Rohan kaha ho tum......

They both rushed outside and saw Nanu standing there all tensed and scared...... he came and pulled them both in his embrace tightly...... tears rolled out from his eyes......

Nanu asked worriedly: Tu theek to hai na beta...... tujhe lagi to nahi...... main gaya tha Munshi ke saath accident spot par...... Car ki haalat dekhi maine.... mera toh dil hi dahal gaya......

Anubhav trying to make him calm.... "Nanu.... relax.... main bilkul theek hun...... maine kaha tha na ki main to shop ke paas khada tha...... paani lene ke liye...... aap aise chinta karoge toh aapki tabiyat kharaab ho jayegi......" he extended his hand to wipe his tears giving him water to get relax......

Nanu taking a sip gets relaxed slightly.... "bhagwan ka laakh laakh shukra hai jo aaj usne mere bachche ko bacha liya...... main to soch bhi nahi sakta ki tujhe kuch ho jata toh mera kya hota...... main toh mar hi jaata......'

Anubhav making fake anger face.... "kya Nanu.... aapko kitni baar kaha hai ki marne ki baat mat kiya karo...... aapka aashirwad hai mujh par.... dekho mujhe kuch nahi hua......"Nanu hug him tightly and look towards Rohan who was also crying seeing all this...... he pulled him also and hug both of his kids together.... "tum dono toh meri jaan ho...... aur tumhari zindagi ki khushiyaan dekhe bina mujhe kuch nahi hoga"

Anubhav / Rohan smiled in unison.... "aur aap hamari...... hamare best Nanu friend"

They stayed in that position for some time emotionally.......... till then Ramdhari serves lunch and today Nanu feed both his sons by his own hands lovingly......

Haseena also reached home.... they decided to not disclose this accident at home to not to make anyone gets worried...... moreover how will she explain to Bela and Beena the reason for her to go out for shopping with Anubhav......

Bela: arey Haseena Preeti.... achcha hua tum jaldi aa gayi...... aaj maine sab tere pasand ka khaana banaya hai......

Preeti : Haan Mummy voh aaj birthday hai to sab masti mein the.... isiliye koi class nahi attend ki.. main abhi change karke aati hun..

Preeti holding Haseena's hand went inside and closed the door behind.. Haseena was sitting on bed still shocked and scared of whatever happen today..

Preeti: Dekh Haseena.. tu theek hai ab.. Anubhav bhi theek hai.. apne ghar par hai....tu bhool ja sab kuch.... itna kyun darr gayi hai...... kuch hai jo tu mujhse chhupa rahi hai.... bata na......

Haseena controlled her fear to not to spoil her day.... "haan tu sahi kehti hai.. main shayad kuch jyada hi darr gayi thi.... Sorry aaj tera birthday hai aur maine sab kharaab kar diya...... I am sorry Preeti" she hug her tightly..

Preeti : paagal hai.. kuch kharaab nahi kiya balki tu special bazaar gayi aur mere liye yeh gift laayi...... isse bada gift to aaj mujhe mil hi nahi sakta tha...... (teasingly) tujhe pata hai aaj accident ke baad se tu pehli baar bazaar gayi voh bhi Anubhav ke saath...

Haseena (smiles): kya karu voh maana hi nahi...... toh mujhe jaana pada...... pata hai voh bhi na teri hi tarah bahut ziddi hai... meri ek baat nahi sunta........

Preeti teased her back.... "thank god Anubhav ka naam sunkar muskurayi toh madam"

Haseena : achcha.... aur tu jo aajkal Rohan ko dekhkar muskurati hai...... kya chal raha hai tum dono mein...... vaise kya diya usne tujhe gift mein...... tune dikhaya nahi kisi ko..." she said trying to divert her mind to tease her again

Preeti (shyly): yaar paagal hai voh.... yeh dekh usne ek red color ka teddy bear.... chocolates aur yeh friendship ka card diya hai... Socho iss mein birthday gift jaisa kya hai...... paagal kahi ka...... birthday par friendship ka card kaun deta hai... duffer kahin ka...." she said making angry face

Haseena poked on her forehead.... "tu kab samjhegi.... jhalli kahi ki...... kitna cute gift hai aur ise waste lag raha hai... bechara Rohan"

Preeti.... "rehne de...... mujhe nahi samajh aate yeh sab teddy sheddy ke chonchale...... jab tak dil na mile yeh sab bekaar hai...... jaisa Anubhav hai na.... aur jis tarah voh tujhe dekhta hai.... teri care karta hai...... uski toh baat hi kuch aur hai...... koi aisa mile toh baat bane" she smiled sheepishly..

Haseena blushed and after bit teasing to each other they went for lunch.. But Haseena was still scared from inside but hide her tension as doesn't want to spoil Preeti's big day..

Later Karishma and Santosh joined them.. They had a small party at home and Pooja baked a cake for Preeti.. Varun also came to meet Pooja and celebrate..

In night.... Haseena was sleeping but saw a scary dream of a truck coming towards Anubhav and she wake up with a loud scream: Nahhiiiiiiii.....

Preeti woke up and switch on the side lamp and saw Haseena sitting.... sweating badly and shivering...... she keeps on mumbling few words...... nahiii...... nahi...... aisa nahi ho sakta........

Anand & Bela came inside hearing her scream...... Anand hug her tightly and asked: Kya hua Preeti...... yeh Haseena itni jor se kyun chillayi......

Preeti: pata nahi Papa.... shayad koi bura sapna dekha hoga...... lagta hai darr gayi hai......

Bela gave her water and rub her back to get relax.... after few minutes.... she feels better and they left for their room to sleep...

Haseena crying: Preeti mujhe bahut darr lag raha hai...... Anubhav...... Anubhav ko lekar............

Preeti asked confusingly.... "Anubhav.... kyun use kya hua........ Voh to theek hi hoga apne ghar par aur kharrate maar ke maje se so raha hoga......"

Haseena cried and hold her hand.... "Nahi Preeti.... kuch hai jo mujhe bahut ghabrahat ho rahi hai........ kya karu...... kaise pata lagega voh theek bhi hai ki nahi........"Here Anubhav was also tensed thinking about her condition and worried for her.. He was pacing from one corner to another in the room......

Rohan sitting on bed looking at him irritatingly.... "bhaai mere.... aadhi raat ho gayi hai...... so ja aur mujhe bhi sone de...... itna chalega to charon dhaam ki yatra paidal hi kar lega......"

Anubhav give an annoying look to him.... "dekh ya toh tu so ja ya apna munh bandh rakh...... vaise hi mera dimaag bahut kharaab hai upar se tu apni bakwaas mat shuru kar......"

Rohan: Par problem kya hai...... batayega bhi......

Anubhav sits next to him and said.... "Yaar Haseena ki chinta ho rahi hai...... lag raha hai jaise voh bahut pareshaan hai is waqt...... samajh nahi aa raha kya karu.... kaise pata karu ki voh theek hai ki nahi...... shaam se usse baat bhi nahi ho paayi"

Rohan hit on his head "Tu theek toh hai na...... kyun itni chinta kar raha hai........ agar Bhabhi theek nahi hoti to Preeti ab tak phone karke bata chuki hoti na...... meri maan so ja aaram se...... voh bhi tere sapno mein doob kar chen se so rahi hogi"

Anubhav : Pata nahi mujhe...... kuch toh hai jo mera dil itna bechain hai...... bina use mile ya baat kiye mujhe chen nahi aayega"

Rohan: ek kaam karte hai...... phone karke dekhte hai......

Anubhav: Paagal hai kya...... raat ke do baje hai...... koi kya sochega......

Rohan give an idea.... "dekh hum do bell denge...... agar kisi ne phone uthaya to theek varna kaat denge...... vaise bhi sab so rahe honge...... ab har koi hamari tarah ullu thode hi hai" Anubhav bit reluctantly nodded in agreement avoiding his sarcastic tone......

Here seeing her condition getting worst.... Preeti also decided the same to check if possible that Haseena can talk to Anubhav and pick the cordless to dial his number.... but phone rings before she press the button and she picked up in first ring only to avoid anyone's sleep got disturbed........

Preeti whispers: Hello.... kaun......

Rohan replied in same tone: Preeti main Rohan...... tum abhi tak soyi nahi......

Preeti (irritatingly): Tumne yeh puchane ke liye itni raat ko phone kiya hai...... paagal ho kya......

Rohan : arey nahi.... voh Anubhav yaha bahut pareshan tha Haseena ke liye...... voh theek to hai na......

Preeti : Yaha bhi yahi haal hai...... madam ne ro ro kar saara ghar sar par utha rakha hai...... ruko main phone deti hun usako......" she murmured slowly.... "dono paagal hi hai"

She went inside the room.... locked the door and give cordless to Haseena.... "yeh lijiye madam...... Anubhav hai line par...... baat kar le......"

Haseena / Anubhav: Hello........ They smiled and got relaxed listening each other voice...... keep silent for few seconds to feel their presence......

Anubhav: Tum theek ho...... soyi nahi abhi tak......

Haseena: Tum bhi toh nahi soye abhi tak.... kya hua...... tabiyat to theek hai na......

Anubhav haan main theek hun...... sach kahu jab se college se aaya hun.... bas tumhare baare mein hi soch raha hun...... tumse milne ka.... baat karne na bahut man kar raha tha........

Haseena (innocently): voh kyu...... kuch kaam tha kya......

Anubhav (romantically) : Nahi.... kuch kaam nahi tha bas tumhari yaad aa rahi thi......" they both remained silent for few minutes....

Anubhav: Haseena.... tum ho na line par........ Haseena......

Haseena: hmmm.... bolo......

Anubhav: Kya hua........ abhi bhi pareshaan ho subah ki baat se.... abhi bhi darr lag raha hai kya......

Haseena nodded her head in yes on phone......

Anubhav (giggled): aise phone par sar hilaogi to mujhe kaise pata chalega.......... achcha ruko abhi tumhara mood theek karta hun...... hold karo......

He keeps the receiver on table and picked up his guitar and play a romantic tune.... he sings:

Pukartaa chalaa hoon main.... Gali gali bahaar ki Bas ek chhaanv zulf ki.... Bas ik nigaah pyaar ki

Ye dillagi ye shokhiyaan salaam ki.... Yahi to baat ho

rahi hai kaam ki Koi to mud ke dekh lega is taraf.... Koi nazar to hogi mere naam ki

Pukaartaa chalaa hoon main.... Gali gali bahaar ki

Bas ek chhaanv zulf ki.... Bas ik nigaah pyaar ki

Suni meri sadaa to kis yaqeen se.... Ghataa utar ke aa gayi zameen pe Rahi yahi lagan to ai dil-e javaan.... Asar bhi ho rahega ik haseen peHe finished his song and pick the receiver in hand......

Anubhav: Kaisa laga......

Haseena : Pata hai tumhari awaaj mein ek jaadu hai.... ek alag sa sukoon hai.... jise sunkar koi bhi apna hosh kho sakta hai......

Anubhav: auro ki chhodo.... tum batao...... are you feeling better now........ (in his mind: kaash awaaz ke saath gaane ka matlab bhi samjha hota...... mere dil ka haal jo behaal hua jaa raha hai)

Haseena (smiles): hmmm mast ek dam first class...... out of the world...

Anubhav (laughing): toh chalo ab jaldi se so jao...... kal subah baat karenge......

Haseena: Good night.... bye n thanks for everything......

Anubhav (laughed): Buddhu...... good night.... ab jaldi se so jao......

They both smiled and keep the phone down and drift into sleep peacefully........
