SidNaaz Ki Duniya: Collection of Short Stories and OS (On Hold)

Jab Mila Tu (7.4)

Some days passed like this and Sid ans Sana's friendship kept being stronger. They loved spending time with each other. They could share everything with each other. Above all when they used to be around each other, they could be themselves.

One day, Sid and Sana were in Sid's house and Sana was discussing about the changes they had made.

"Get up tera change ho gaya, lense tujhe pehna diya, attitude bhi tera abhi thik thak hai, toh jo last chiz bachi hai woh hai.... Teri virginity. Isko toh tujhe hi break karna hoga. I can't do anything about it." Said Sana making Sid embarassed.

"Sana tu yeh wala point chhor de. Yeh nahi hoga mujhse." Said Sid to which Sana frowned.

"Kyu nahi hoga? Koi medical problem hai? Then you should immediately consult a doctor."

Sid widened his eyes and shouted, "Medical problem kyu hogi? Bakwas karti hai!"

"Toh kya problem hai?" Asked Sana.

"It's just.... I become nervous. Aisa nahi hai ki maine aur Natasha ne kabhi try nahi kiya. But everytime, I f*ck up. Mujhe end moment mein realise hota hai ki main ready nahi hoon jis se Natasha gussa ho jaati hai. Uske according ek ladka ho ke aisi baatein karna bohut hi shameful hai."

After listening everything, Sana said, "I can understand. Starting mein yeh problem meri bhi thi. Mere khayal se, tu na bohut stress le leta hai. Itna stress lene ki zaroorat nahi. Tu na apni body ko bilkool relaxed kar ke rakhna. Koi nervousness nahi, koi stress nahi, just relaxed."

Sid nodded in yes though he didn't have any confidence on himself.

"Ho sake toh Natasha ke ghar jaane se pehle mere YouTube videos dekh ke thoda Zumba kar lena." She said further.

"Zumba?" Asked Sid making a confused face.

"Yeah it will work. Iss se tu stress free ho jayega." Said Sana. "Aur paata hai teri main problem yeh hi hai. Tu Natasha ke saamne bohut zyada nervous ho jaata hai. Phone pe jab baat karta hai na, lagta hai tera koi interview chal raha hai. Woh teri gf hai yaar, teacher yaa boss nahi. Tujhe uske saath bilkool free rehna chahiye. Tabhi toh tum dono ke relationship mein improvement aayegi."

"Free matlab... Jaisa main tere saath rehta hoon waisa?" Asked Sid.

"Yeah of c....." Sana suddenly stopped after realising what he said. Her expression changed.

"Mere saath? Tu sirf mere saath free rehta hai?" Asked Sana softly.

Sid smiled and said, "Aur nahi toh kya? Tujhe paata hai mera nature aisa kyu hai? Mere parents bohut strict the. And I was their obedient child. Main zyada kuch bol nahi paata tha unke saamne. Humesha aise dara dara, chup chup sa rehta tha. Aur bada ho ke bhi mera yeh nature reh gaya. School, college mein zyada friends nahi the mere. Ladkiyan bhav tak nahi deti thi. Isliye girlfriend bana ne ka kabhi socha bhi nahi. Mumbai aane ke baad, Natasha aisi pehli ladki thi jisne mujh pe thoda sa interest dikhaya. Usko toh koi bhi mil jaata but still she chose me. Mere proposal ko accept karne se pehle usne do baar bhi nahi socha. Isliye uske saamne main bohut soch samajh ke baat karta hoon taa ki woh meri kisi baat se offend ho ke mujhe chhor na de. I'm scared to lose her. Isliye main humesha usse khush rakhne ki koshish karta hoon. And now also I'm doing all this, just to keep her with me."

Sana was listening to Sid while thinking about the depth of his love. She wished if someone loved her like this.

"But Sana you know, tere saath sab kuch bohut alag hai." Said Sid breaking Sana's thoughts. "With you I can be myself. Mujhe kuch bhi soch samajh ke nahi karna padhta. Because I know you will never judge me. And you are the first person who never judged me because of my nature and looks."
