Jodha: Hello papa...kya hua?

Rajiv: Jodha aaj tum kitne baaje aah rahi ho?

Jodha: shayd main 9 bajje tak ghar par hoongi

Rajiv: Alright beta..ohh haan I am having a guest over remember the business tycoon I was telling you about..he is coming over tonight

Jodha: magar aap toh usse pasand nahi karte hai toh aab kaya hua?

Rajiv: haan main nahi karta magar mujhe laga ki agar main use ghar boolakar theek tara se baat karoon toh shayid woh meri baat sunle

Jodha: hmm alright dad main aapse ghar aakar baat karoongi

Rajiv: Alright beta..bye..don't be late

Jodha: Alright dad..love you

Rajiv: love you too beta

Rohit: Jodha come on how long are you going to be on the phone

Jodha: Shut up Rohit...waise you should be talking nicely to me

Rohit: For what?

Jodha: I helped you with your exams..in fact you should owe me and Meera some treats..right Meera?

Meera: Of course...I don't even know why we help him all the time

Rohit (puts his arms around both girls): Because you guys won't last a day if I am not with you guys and brighten up your dull lives

Meera: Shut up...in fact it should be other way around..if we weren't with you than

Jodha (completed): Than you would have been a lost soul wandering around...anyway where are our treats?

Rohit: How about I give you treats some other time...that should give you both enough time to lose some weight..(both gasps) seriously, I have spoiled you guys with treats..Meera look at your stomach it is coming out and you Jodha your cheeks are getting so big and puffy...(stare at him shocked) just think I am helping you guys..if I give you guys another treat than no guys will come near you both...I am helping you like a good friend I am...well than lets go and hang out we don't have all night...(Jodha and Meera looked at him with anger)

Meera: My stomach is coming out huh?

Jodha: I have big puffy cheeks huh?
Rohit (walking back): Guys I am telling you the truth so that you guys can work on your flaws..

Jodha: You know what Meera...he is right

Meera: He is?

Jodha: Yeah since he helped us by letting us know our flaws we should be good friends and let him know his flaws as well (winked at her)

Rohit: What flaws do I have? (looks in the mirror) Girls die for me

Meera: Yeah am sure they do that is why you are still single (laughs)

Jodha: Anyway...Rohit hmm (looks at him from top to bottom) your height...you are short .no girl wants a short guy

Meera: Your face..you have a crooked nose which will scare any girls

Jodha: You need to build some muscles...you know Salman Khan type...a girl likes a guy when they have nice and tanned body

Meera: Yeah and

Rohit: Ok ok stop you guys! Alright you guys won..I am sorry for saying..now you guys want treats or not

Jodha (and Meera high-fived each other): yeh hui na baath

Meera: Don't mess with us

Rohit: Alright ladies lets go (he puts his arm around them and start walking to ice cream shop) did you guys really mean all those stuff about me (Jodha and Meera laughed and ran to the shop) Guys tell me! (ran after them)

Jodha came home around 10:00 pm...she hoped that her dad won't be mad at her...she went straight to her kitchen...

Jodha: kaka papa kaha hai?

Kaka: woh apne study mein hai apne guest ke saath kuch discuss kar rahe hai

Jodha (shocked): abhi tak?

Kaka: haan woh bahut ziddi hai..Jaa nahi raha

Jodha: hmm alright kahane ko kya hai aaj? Bahut bhook lagi hai

Kaka (laughed): maine kaas tumhare liye kheer aur puri chole bacha kar rakhe hai...

Jodha: kaka you are the best

Kaka (confused): yeh besht kya hai? (pronounced best wrong)

Jodha (laughed): iska matalb hai ki aap bahut aache hai..aab aap jaaye aur sojaye main kahana khud garam karke kahloongi..good night

Kaka: alright beitiya

Jodha heated the food and quickly carried her plate outside to the dinning room table...she went to her bag and took out her favorite book she usually reads whenever she gets time..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile in her dad's study room
Rajiv: Mr. Muhammad hum agle teen gante se wahi same baat repeat kar rahe hai...why don't you understand that I cannot give you of what you are asking I will be left with nothing...

Jalal: joh aap mujhe offer kar rahe hai woh mujhe nahi pasand..joh main chata hoon wohi mujhe chahiye...
Rajiv: main aapko pura control nahi de sakta...I can only offer 50% that should be enough...

Jalal (takes a sip of the wine): 50% percent is not good enough...in fact you should be lucky enough to work with Muhammad Textiles...

Rajiv (angry): itna ghamand aacha nahi hai Mr. Muhammad

Jalal (gets up calmly): Alright it was nice meeting you Mr. Sharma...aap nahi jante aapne kis ko na kaha hai...I will take your leave..good night (he smirks)

Rajiv (angry): Good night..am sure you know where the door is at..

Jalal (smiles): Will do..good night

Jalal makes his way down...suddenly he stopped when he saw a girl sitting at a dinning table..eating and reading a book with dim lights on...he found himself staring at her beauty..he smiled looking at the way she was eating and changing her face expression while reading...her smile was so magnificent...he didn't know how long he has been standing there seeing her...he suddenly came out of the trance after hearing his phone...Jodha turned to see where the noise was coming from...she saw a guy leaving her house...she was about to get up when she saw her father coming down

Rajiv: Jodha beta tum abhi soye nahi? (Jalal heard her name before going... "Jodha..hmm nice name" he smiled and left)

Jodha: Woh actually papa main apni book parte parte pata nahi chala time kaha chala gaya...

Rajiv: maine kitni baar kaha hai tumhe yeh aachi addat nahi hai..go and sleep now
Jodha: Alright papa good night...

Jodha POV:
Maine aaj Suraj ko uske sawal ka jawab doongi..after a long time I am felling so happy..
I have every right to be happy as well...he wouldn't find me anyways...It has been so many years...magar main apna dil Suraj ko puri tarah nahi de sakti...pata nahi kyun magar Jalalmagar main koshish zaroor karoongi...I don't know how he will react..I know I will be happy with him...he will never hurt me...I just hope Kanha protects me and Suraj
Magar kya mujhe Suraj ko batana chahiye ki main Rajni nahi par Jodha hoon?
Tears starts to roll down her eyes...my whole identity, my father and my friends were separated from me...nahi main Suraj ko kuch nahi baatongi...woh insaan mera past tha...aab woh meri zindagi main kabhi nahi aayega...
