Baatein kuch unkahee si

Part 67

Anjali: sach khushiji aap udaas hoti hai to hum sabko achha nehi lagta..aapke chehre pe to yeh muskaan achhi lagti hai...(we all don't like seeing you sad...you look nice when you have a smile on your face)

She then looked at arnav who was looking at khushi and teased: aur waise bhi agar aap udaas ho na to koi hai jisey bilkul chayen nehi milta...(and when you are sad there is someone who becomes totally restless)

She giggled. Arnav looked away in embarrassment.

Aakash held arnav's shoulder and said: haan khushiji..bas ek aap hi hai jo arnav singh raizada se kuch bhi karwa sakti hai!! (only you can make him do anything)

Arnav: what the.. Maine kya kiya!! (what the...what did I do?) 

Nk: kya kiya!!! Nannav poocho tumne kya nehi kiya... Khushiji aap janti hai yeh jo nannav hai na aapse baat karne ke liye bekar tha!! (what you did!! Ask what you didn't do...khushiji you know he was so eager to talk to you)

Lavanya was only looking at nk, trying to understand his mood. When he spoke up, she quickly corrected his hindi saying: its bekarar!

Nk looked at her and gave a little forced smile and looked away. Lavanya was disappointed yet another time.

Anjali: achha achha ab bohot chher liya humne in dono ko..khushiji chhotey aap dono jaiye change kar lijiye..(ok ok now we have pulled their leg enough..khushiji chhotey you go and change your clothes)

Arnav and khushi headed towards their room. Aakash called payal and they left as well. Nk left but lavanya followed him.

Lavanya called: nk..nk 

Nk stopped. 

Lavanya: I am sorry.. 

Nk looked at her and said: no lavanyaji..you don't have to be sorry..woh kya hai na main hi bohot zyada baat karta hoon...anyways..(no lavanyaji... you don't have to be sorry..actually I am the one who talks a lot... anyways)

He started to walk again but lavanya held his hand. 

Nk turned and lavanya said: I am really sorry nk..mujhe aise baat nehi karni chahiye thi...please forgive me...( I am really sorry nk...I shouldn't have talked like that... please forgive me...)
Nk forced a smile yet another time and said: it's alright!

And walked away. 

Siddharth was going away, when anjali called him: siddharth...humey tumse kuch baat karni hai (siddharth...I need to talk to you)

Siddharth: haan anjali kaho (yes tell me) 

Anjali: kal jo bhi uske liye hum bohot sharminda hai..(I am very ashamed for what happened last night)

Siddharth: no anjali..tum aisa..(no anjali..why are you..) 

Anjali: siddharth hamari baat abhi khatam nehi hui..(I have not completed yet). There was a strange sadness and coldness in her voice, which was very unlike her. It was quite evident to siddharth that she was trying to be a different person.

She looked down and said: tum ek bohot achhe insaan ho..lekin hum..hum tumharey dosti ke layek nehi hai...isiliye hum tumse yeh dosti aur nehi nibha saktey..(you are a very nice person but I don't deserve your friendship...and I can't continue with this friendship anymore).

Siddharth crossed his arms and looked at her, watched her closely for some seconds trying to read her mind. She was not looking at him. Finally he spoke up.

Siddharth: anjali yeh baat tum meri ankhon mein dekh ke bhi kahey sakti thi..(you could have said this by looking into my eyes)

Anjali was dumbfounded. She looked up at him and tears started rolling down her eyes.
