Samaina FF : Pyaar Hua, Chupke Se

Part-1 (The new tenant)

The morning sun started visible, piercing the hazy sheets of fog. Naina Agarwal shivered a little at the sudden touch of the cool breeze coming from the North while walking to the balcony of her room. Wrapping the shawl tightly on her body, she settled herself on the chair that kept one corner of the balcony & engrossed herself in deep thought. She was trying to spread the wings of her imagination in the object of morning nature as the quiet and calm nature of early Morning provides her the necessary elements for writing.

"Naina, Preeti, where are you?" Anand's voice came from the dining area. She stopped writing on hearing her father's voice.

"Coming papa.." keeping her diary on the study table Naina answered & walked to the dining room.

"Where is Preeti?" Bela asked while serving the breakfast.

"She is still in sleep" Naina mumbled.

"Bhagwan jhoot na bulwaye, ye ladki bhi na.. Itni der tak kaun sote hai.."

"Sone do na Bela, aaj Sunday hai.. Jaldi uthke kya karegi.." Anand tried to pacify his wife.

"Aap na rehne do, aap ne hi bigad ke rakha hai inn dono ko..." Bela complained.

In the meantime, Naina came back to her room for waking up Preeti, her twin sister. Looking at Preeti's sleeping form she chuckled thinking how everyone fails to identify them as twin sisters. They are poles apart not only in their looks but also in their nature.. Whereas Naina is kinda calm Preeti is chirpy.. They often quarrel on watching Bollywood movies as Naina's favorite is Salman whereas Preeti loves Shahrukh. Preeti always complaints Naina for her studious nature as she herself never goes near books the day before exam. The only similarity between them is their dislike for 'Tinde ki sabji'. Instead of having all the opposite qualities they become each other's armour when it's time to face any danger.

Bending towards Preeti's side, Naina tried to wake her up. "Uth ja kumbhkaran ki mausi, aath baj rahe hai.."

"Kya yaar Naina, itni subha kaun uthte hai.." Preeti said in a sleepy voice.

"Sab uthte hai srif tujhko chodke.."

"Sab teri tarah pagal thodi na hai ki suraj devta ki jaagte hi uth jaye, vo bhi itni thand main" Preeti said while covering her face with blanket.

"Accha main pagal hu? Ruk tu abhi batati hu..." saying so she went to the attached bath in their room & came back with a mug full of cold water.

"Uth ja Preeti, nahi to ye thanda pani daal dungi teri upar.."

Hearing her sister's threatening voice, Preeti opened her eyes. Seeing the water mug in Naina's hand she immediately sprang up from the bed.

"Shaant ho ja Naina devi, ye dekh main uth gayi.. tu ja main fresh hoke aati hun" a defeated Preeti replied.

Naina came out with a victorious smile after fulfilling one of the toughest mission of Sunday.

The sudden sound of the door bell made Naina flinched as soon as she entered the living room.

"Dekho to beta kaun hai itni subah.." Anand asked Naina to open the door.

Opening the door Naina found Rakesh standing outside..

"Namaste tauji" she said nervously.
Thik hai, thik hai.. Tere papa kaha hai?" He enquired.

"Uss flat ki chabi jo maine diya tha rakhne ke liye vo dena, nayi kirayedar Aaj shift kar rahe hai.." Rakesh said to Anand after his arrival.

"Andar aaiye na bhaisahab." Anand said while handing over the key to Rakesh.

"Abhi nahi, bohot kaam hai.. Main zara Arjun ki saath bazar jaa raha hun. Bazar se aane ki baad Arjun ki sasural walo ki waha jaana hai, unhone khane pe bulwaya hai. Shaam tak wapis aa jaunga. Tum zara khayal rakhna naya kirayedar ko kuch chahiye ho to..." saying so he left.

"Kaun tha?" Bela asked.

"Rakesh tauji tha, khali flat ki chabi lene aya tha nayi kirayedar ke liye." returning to the dining room Naina answered .

"Naina ki papa, Rakes bhaisahab kya sachmuch kisi bachelor ko vo flat kiraye pe de raha hai??"

"Haa, maine bola to tha tumhe.."

"Par vo aise kaise koi bachelor ko hamari bagal wali flat de sakta hai.. Unhe sochna chahiye tha ki hamari ghar mein do do jawan betiyaan hai.." Bela said anxiously.

"Ab bhaisahab ka flat vo kisi ko bhi de hamein kya, aise bhi bhaisab ki aage kisiko chalta kahan. Tum fikar mat karo sameer se baat hua tha mera bohot accha ladka hai."

"Kaun Sameer?" Bela inquired.

"Sameer Maheshwari, Hamari naya padosi"

"Accha, aur aapne kaise jaan liya ki vo accha ladka hai? Itni jaldi kisi pe bharosa karna acchi baat nai hai" Bela's voice was filled with grumpiness.

"Aree Bela, society main rehna hai to logon pe thodi bohot bishwas to karna padta hai na.. Aur insaan ko parakh ne ke liye na ek hi jhalak kafi hota hai."

"Aapki yeh sab baatein na meri samajh ki bahar.. Aap jo chahe kar lijiye.. Meri iss ghar main sunta hi kaun.." muttering the words Bela walked towards the kitchen.

"Aaj to mummy ko manana bohot mushkil ho jayegi, papa." Naina said in a tensed tone.

"Kyun ab kya hua, main to uth gayi time pe, to mummy ko kyun gussa chada hai?" hearing Naina's words Preeti asked confusedly.

"Aa ja meri sleeping beauty, pehle nashta kar le, nahi to teri mummy ki gussa aur bhi upar chadne wala hai.. main jata hu tumhari mummy ko shant karne" Anand stood up turning towards the kitchen on his biwi manaoing mission.

"Ab tu bata bhi de ki kya hua hai, nahi to meri pet mein yeh parathe thik se hazam bhi nahi hoga" taking the last torn piece of the parantha from her plate Preeti whispered to her sister. After finishing her breakfast, Naina described the whole scenario in a nutshell.

"Accha toh yeh baat hai, itne dino baad naya kirayedar aaya hai vo bhi bachelor. Chal jaake dekhte hai ladka handsome hai ya nahi. Kash vo Shahrukh khan jaisa ho.. Haayee." Preeti exclaimed with a dreamy voice and pulled Naina towards the balcony to see their new neighbour.

They saw some labourers were busy in putting down the furnitures from a lorry according to the instructions of a boy who was standing near the lorry turning his face to the opposite direction from their balcony.

Pointing towards the boy Preeti said,"tujhko kya lagta hai yahi vo ladka jo hamari naya kirayedar"

"Lag to yahi raha hai, par ye idhar kyun nahi dikh raha hai.. thik se chehra bhi nahi dekh pa rahi hun." Naina said in a frustrated tone.

"Aaye haye, chehra dekhne ke liye itni besabri... lagta hai meri chance to gayi. Aakhir meri behna ki dil jo aa gayi iss bechare pe." Preeti gave a mischievous look.

"Hawa aane de, mujhe koi saukh nahi iske saath chance marne ki. Aur mera dil na itni aasani se nahi aane wale hai kisi pe, vo to bas aise hi curiosity ke liye bol rahi thi."

"Phir se soch le.. Abhi tak tune chehra nahi dekha bande ka, dekhne ke baad agar teri statement badalna padha toh??" Preeti asked in a teasing tone.

"Aisa kuch nahi hone wala. Tu na apni dimag aisi bakwas cheezo pe lagana bandh karke padhai pe laaga, exam mein acchi marks aayega." Naina tried to change the topic.

"Ha ha maf kar dijiye masterni saheba, galat jagah pe galat baat bool di maine.. Tere dil pe na books ki alawa kisi aur ki nam aana mushkil hi nahi na mumkin hai." Preeti said in a confident tone, being unaware about the game of destiny.
