Dekha ek khawaab rewritten

part 10

Manyata's pov

I could hear a shrill sound that was disrupting my peaceful sleep. I was trying to ignore it from the past ten minutes but to no avail. So that is why i decided to get up from my precious bed and see what is it that is disrupting my sleep.

The sound is coming from the window, as if someone was throwing something at it.  After focusing i realized that someone was throwing rocks at my window. But who could that might be? A thief?

'Why would a thief throw rocks at your window manyata.' My inner voice chastised.

Then who is it?

I am a bit scared too. What if these are the reporters? But how did they get past the security?

'Stop worrying and just see who is it? What is the worse that can happen?' My inner voice spoke again.

Right i should see. But before i should get someone on call. What if the intruder attacks me? I should atleast have witness. Right?

I could not even bring myself to call maa or dadisahab. What if it is just my paranoia and i woke them up without any reason. Seeing as it was dark outside it must be really early. I looked at the time and it was 5:30 am. Who even wakes up that early?

I should call uday righ. He will know what to do. I dialed his number without missing a heartbeat and he picked up immediately on the second ring.

"Good morning princess." He said. His voice suggested that he have been up for a while. So i did not wake him up. Good to know.

"Tu soya ni ya jaldi uth gya?" I asked in confusion. Because normal people are  usually sleeping at this time of the day.

"Bas kuch khas kaam se jaldi uth gaye princess.  Aap btaiye aapne hume kaise itni subh subh yaad kia?" He asked and i remembered why i called him so early.

"Uday meri khidki par koi hai. Itni der se patthar fenk rha hai koi." I told him what was happening.

" dariye mat princess, ja kr dekhiye kon h." He said with nonchalance.

" tu itni asani se kh rha hai, pta chle m khidki pas jau aur koi mujhe goli se uda de" i scoffed reprimanding him.

"Are dariye mat, hum hai na. Aap dekhiye to shi ek bar." He said again in a calm manner.

"Hum hai na, phone mei se thodi na aaega tu mujhe bchane. Aise kaise na daru haan nahi toh." I scolded him and he just chuckled in response.

I decided to be brave and went towards the balcony window where the noise was coming from. What i saw below just left me bewildered and a new found rage.

"Khasma nu khane, kutte, halkat wede, idhr meri jaan sukhi ja rhi thi aur tujhe majak ki lagi hai itni subh subh." I said in the phone while looking at the nuisance in the backyard who was just laughing uncontrollably.

"Ruk tujhe to mai abhi btati hu." With that i removed my slipper and threw it in his direction,  which he skillfully dodged. I repeated the same with other slipper as well, which he dodged as well still laughing.

" are are princess, ab bs bhi kijiye. Bache ki jaan lengi kya." He said trying to control his laughter. Before i could scold him again, he spoke again. "Acha ab jaldi se niche aajaiye i have a surprise for you."

"Bta kya hai, tabhi niche aaugi mai." I said stubbornly.

" please princess thoda patience rakhiye, i trust it will be worth it." He told me and i decided to go along with it. I have already been woken up from my sleep let's just see what this great surprise is.
