Sameer was almost shivering in anticipation. Naina had become his addiction. Three days away from her had been hell for him. He had been talking to her everyday, more than once... but only her voice was not enough. He wanted to see her... ached to hold her. When Munna informed him about the plan for Swati's house, he felt a huge weight lift off his mind. Finally, he was going to see her... he had to tell her how much he had missed her.
Naina and Preeti reached Swati's house after breakfast. Her parents were ready to leave.
"Beta, tum dono aaj ruk rahi ho na raat ko yahan?" Her mother asked them.
"Jee aunty, hum kal aapke aane tak yahin rahenge", Preeti replied.
Swati's mother smiled at them, "Chalo achha hai... ab mujhe chinta nahi hogi ki Swati akeli hai."
Once they left, Swati hugged both her friends.
"Yaar, aaj toh bada maza aayega... poore din masti karenge", she was delighted.
"Aaj toh subah se hi maza aa raha hai... pata nahi kiski shakal dekh ke uthi thi main... shayad shishe mein khud ko dekha hoga", Preeti pulled up her imaginary collars.
"Swati, Sameer kab tak aayega?" Naina could think of nothing else.
Preeti and Swati looked at each other and smiled.
"Aa jayega bas thodi der mein... uska haal toh tujhse bhi zyaada bura hai... kisi ke rokne se bhi nahi rukega", Swati teased her friend.
Naina picked up the overnight bag she was carrying, "Main ye tere kamre mein rakh ke aati hun. "
Preeti looked at her sister vanishing in the room at the end of the corridor.
She turned to Swati, "Mujhe ek baat bata, Swati... Munna jijaji bhi tere boyfriend the itne time tak... kya woh bhi aise pagal ho jaate the agar tu nahi mil paati thi ek do din?"
Swati smiled at her friend's innocence, "Sameer mein aur Munna mein fark hai... Sameer ko zindagi mein pehli baar kisi ne itna pyaar diya hai... nanaji usse apne bachhe ki haisiyat se pyaar karte the jo uski maa ne kabhi nahi kiya aur Munna Pandit uske bhaiyon jaise hain... lekin Naina ne uske dil mein utar kar usse apnaaya hai... uski har kami ko, uske har dard ko jaise apne haath se mita diya hai... jitna dard Naina ke dil mein hum dekhte the na school ke dino mein, utna hi dard Sameer ke man mein bhi tha... aur ab yeh dono ek dusre ke dard ki dawa ban gaye hain... Sameer ki tadap zyaada dikhti hai kyonki woh Munna Pandit ke saath rehta hai aur usse chupane ki zaroorat nahi hai... lekin Naina ghar mein sabke saath rehti hai... woh khul ke nahi dikha sakti ki uski kya haalat hai..."
Preeti pondered over what Swati said, then remembered something, "Sahi keh rahi hai tu... raat ko kitni der tak baithi rehti hai ghutno pe sar rakh ke... do din se toh dhang se kuch khaya bhi nahi hai... bathroom mein ro rahi thi kal subah... uski laal ankhen dekhi thi maine par kuch kaha nahi... ghar mein mummy papa ke samne normal rehne ka dikhawa karti hai par kamre mein jaate hi jaise jaan nahi ho usme aisi ho jaati hai."
They saw Naina coming out of the room and ended their discussion. She straight away went to the window and looked out at the empty street hopefully.
"Chal khane ki taiyari kar lete hain un logon ke aane tak", Swati tried to divert her mind.
They went to the kitchen... Swati had planned a menu of pao bhaji and pulao. Together, they finished all the work in half an hour.
"Aise karte hain, pakode bhi bana lete hain... Pandit ko toh har ghante kuch chahiye hoga", Naina suggested.
Swati was tired, "Chod na, Naina... maine Munna ko bola tha... woh laayega cold drink, chips aur kuch samaan... itni garmi mein kyon paseena baha rahi hai... abhi tera hero aayega toh kya kahega?" She winked at Naina.
