Farmeed / One-shot Series

~ twinning, or maybe not~

"YE KYA HAI?"

She screamed on the top of her lungs as she ran out of the room and rushed down the stairs. She didn't care about how she practically pushed Sameer on her way. This was an emergency and it had to be solved right away. Reaching the backyard, she resisted the urge to drag Farjaad along with her. 

"Farjaad! Ye kya hai?"

She said in the most composed voice she could muster. Farjaad turned around to look at her, visibly confused at her angry stares. He turned back to face the man and asked him to give him a couple of minutes. 

"Kya kya hai?"

Umeed pulled in a sharp breath. Out of all days, this is when he decides to get on her nerves.

"Ye sab, ye kya hai?"

"Decoration hai Umeed, aur kya hai?"

"Andhi nahi hoon Farjaad, nazar aa raha hai decoration hai. PAR YE KYA KARAYA HAI?"

"Kya hua hai? Wohi hai jo tum ne kaha tha. Kya masla hai?"

Umeed closed her eyes and began taking deep breaths. She was clutching her fists in order to calm himself down. 

"Farjaad. Yaad karein zara, mene kya bola tha aap ko?"

"Yehi bola tha, yellow walay flowers entrance pe lagwanay hein red walon ke saath, aur yahan stage pe yellow aur white walay."

Umeed held her head in her hands and began lightly pulling her hair. 

"Farjaad, mene aap ko bola tha ke entrance pe red, yellow aur white hon gay, aur saath mein fairy lights lagein gi. Aur stage par sirf sides pe lagein gay, WHITE AUR RED"

Farjaad's eyes shifted towards the stage, which was a work in progress, nearing completion, and was almost entirely yellow, and then back at Umeed, who was giving him nasty glares. 

"Acha par dekho, acha to lag raha hai, mehndi ka color to wese bhi yellow hota hai. Nahi?"

Umeed narrowed her eyes at him. 

"Farjaad, school mein aap ko colors ke naam nahi parhaye thay kya? YE PHOOL AAP KO YELLOW NAZAR AA RAHAY HEIN? IS RANG KO ORANGE KEHTAY HEIN!"

Farjaad turned to look at the stage again, which still appeared yellow to him. Or was it borderline orange? He tilted his head to look at it more intently. 

"Yellow hi to hai...."

"FARJAAD!"

"Acha acha, I'm sorry"

"Sorry ko aap ke mein sir mein maaron? Ab aap batayein, kya karein is ka? Theek karnay ka time bhi nahi hai ab to."

"Aisay guzara nahi ho sakta?"

He made the most innocent face, and Umeed almost gave in before remembering that it was her best friend's dholki and that this man ruined it all. 

"Stage pe ye ganday se orange phool kam karwa ke red aur white add karein, aur ab mein kya hi bolon aap ko."

She huffed. 

"Acha na jaan, I'm sorry..."

He tried holding her hand, but she pulled it back. This man was not getting any of her love today, that she was sure about. 

"Waqt nahi hai, jaldi fix karein issay!"

With that, she turned back and left as soon as she came. Farjaad heaved a sigh and walked back to the person in charge of the decor.
