BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

THE DOUBT!

{PLEASE IGNORE THE SPELLING AND THE GRAMMAR MISTAKES}

*_*_*_*_*_*

It's been 2 weeks since Haseena and her Ammi went to the new rented apartment. Singh family truly misses them. Especially Santu. She eagerly waits for her cutie pie's call every night and shares how her day was spent. Karishma and Pushpa ji also talk with her. Anubhav tries to pretend that he doesn't care about this but in reality, he does want to hear Haseena and her talks.

Anubhav, Neil, Karishma, Pushpa ji, and Karishma are sitting in the hall. Karishma's phone rings. It's from Haseena. She smiled. 

She says to Santu, "Santu, yeh lijiye, aapke cutie pie ka phone aa gaya. Chaliye, room chalkar baat karte hain!"

Santu smiles and Anubhav quickly says in a stern tone, "Kyun? Yanha par vartalap karne mein kya burai hain? Aisi kya gupt baat hain jo keval aapke kaksh mein hi ho sakti hain?"

Everyone looks at him. Karishma makes a sad face and picks up the call sitting in her place only. 

Neil slowly whispers in Anubhav's ears, "Anu, dekhiye hume pata hain ki aap Haseena ko bahut miss kar rahe hain. Directly bolne mein toh maut aa jaati hain aapko. Iss liye aise bahane banakar unki baatein sun-na chahte hain. Par bhai, kyun? Kis liye? Directly baat karo naa. Yanha par beechari Karishma ka kha ma kha suna diya."

Anubhav glares at Neil and speaks in the same tone, "Aapko nahi lagta ki aap kuch adhik hi bol rahe hain?"

Neil smiled and replies, "Nahi, hume toh aisa nahi lagta. Magar kya aapko nahi lagta ki hum jo bhi bol rahe hain woh sahi aur sach bol rahe hain. Why don't you accept that you started to like her?"

Anubhav answers while gritting his teeth, "Aapko apne jeevan se prem samapt ho gaya hain kya? Aap hamesha yeh bakwas kar rahe hain?"

"Hum bakwas nahi kar rahe hain. Hum woh hi bol rahe hain jo sach hain."

Before Anubhav can speak, Pushpa ji asks them, "Tum dono kya khusur pusur kar rahe ho?"

Neil and Anubhav look at her and say, "Kuch nahi!"

They both become silent. Santu is talking with Haseena. Anubhav is listening to her carefully as he can assume what Haseena saying on the other side. After Santu, Haseena talks with Pushpa ji and finally with Karishma.

After minutes of conversation, Haseena asks Karishma, "Achchha Karishma..., Wanha par Anu...bhav hain kya?"

"Bhaiyya? Haan hain. Par kyun?" Karishma's question makes Anubhav curious. Why is she asking about him? Anubhav thinks. He looks at Neil who is giving him a teasing smile. Anubhav rolls his eyes. 

Haseena says to Karishma, "Woh actually hume usne kuch kaam tha. Humne unke office mein call kiya tha par wanha se woh nikal chuke the. Unke phone par bhi kiya tha par unhone uthaya nahi. Socha tha ki Neil ko call kar le. Par baad mein humare bhi deemag se nikal gaya. Abhi aapse baat rahi ho toh dhyaan mein aaya."

"Abhi dete hain" Karishma handovers her mobile to Anubhav, "Bhaiyya, woh Haseena ko aapse kuch baat karni hain."

Anubhav takes the mobile and says after a couple of second's silence, "Ji?"
