Kunal- Bhai?? 17th? But uss din toh aap..

Abir- Haa nanko.. 17th ko meri flight thi... Tujhe yaad haina jab mujhe letter ayaa tha toh me maine saaf mana kar diya tha ki mai foriegn nhi jayunga pdne ke liye..Maine mana kiya tha kyunki me Mishti se door nhi reh skta... aur jab 14th ko Mishti ne mujhe bataya......ki .. kii uski shaadi hone wali hai toh...Mene haa krdi.... haa krdi.... kyunki me agar isi shehr me rehta toh khud ko rok nhi pata .... Kabhi na kabhi me Mishti se milne chala jata.... Lekin... Yeh sab teh krne ke baad bhi me khud ko rok nhi paya.....
17 ko mai Mishti se last time milne gya.... One last time... Maa ke kehne pe.....

*FLASHBACK*

Abir was there sitting in his room... today he's going to take flight to America for his study and Mishti...is going to get married. Yes, it was 17th July...

His mom entered to see him sitting near window pane...

Anamika- Abir, beta... Mene tumhare liye gur ki pinniyan bana ke rakh di hai.. wahan bhaut thand hoti haina toh tum inhe kha lene aur....

Getting no reply from Abir she came close to him putting her hand on his shoulder.

Anamika- Abir???

Abir saw his mother with his red swollen eyes. Pain? Clearly visible, tears making their way down his cheeks without interruption. His lips trembled and he just hugged her mother...

Unable to figure out what had actually happened to her son? Her heart beat raised as she saw him crying, the pain in his eyes pricked her heart.

She hugged him close to her heart.

Anamika- Abir... Abir Beta kya hua?! Kisine tumse kuch kaha kya? Kuch hua hai kya? Tum... tum aise ro kyun rhe ho Abir...?!

Abir looked in her eyes and uttered "Mishtiii" with his trembled voice...
Her mom sat near his knees and cupped his face...

Anamika- Kya hua Mishti ko?? 

Abir- Mamma Mishti ki... Mishti ki shaadi hai aaj...

Anamika- Kya?! Par kese! Mishti kese shaadi kar skti hai! Aur tu..yahan Kya kr rha hai Abir...

Abir- Mamma, she only told me that she is getting married aur usne khud kaha ki mai chala jau.. aur wese bhi she never told me that she loves me.. and I also...

Anamika- Lekin tu toh usse pyaar krta haina?!

Abir- Ha lekin...

Anamika- Lekin kya Abir! Mishti ne keh diya aur tune maan liya?! Ho sakta haina wo majboor ho! Tune Mishti se baat ki is bare me??

He nodded to a no...

Anamika- Tune use bataya ki tu usse kitna pyaar krta hai??

He nodded his head in denial.

Anamika- Abir!!... tu aj uske ghar jeyga aur use batayega ki tu usse kitna pyaar krta hai.. yeh meri salah nhi mera hukam hai... Mujhe poora wishwas hai Mishti maan jeygi...

Abir- Aur agar vo na maani toh....

Anamika- Tu hi kehta haina agar ek percent bhi chance ho toh hume kosish krni chahiye,vo chance lena chaiye?

He nodded...yes, he definitely...

Anamika- Toh tu apni baat se peeche kese hat skta hai abir.. ja Abir.. Mishti ke paas... Use Bata tu usse Kitna pyaar krta hai... Use teri zaroorat hai..

Wiping off the tears, he hugged his mom.

Abir - Thanks mamma...

And he ran out of his room as fast as he could...

*FLASHBACK ENDS*

Kunal puts his hand on abir's shoulder- Phir kya hua bhai?? Mishti ne kya kaha??

Abir - Uss din me Mishti se milne gya toh tha lekin...mila nahi.

Kunal- Haan?! Par kyun bhai!!!

Abir- Woh khush thi nanko... Mene use mandap me dulhan ki taran saje hue dekha... Toh wo knush hi hogi. Mai...mai apni khushi ke liye uski khushi kese dau pe lagata... Kese....

And he cried... Cried his pain out...

Kunal- Lekin bhai! Wo khush kaise ho sakti hai! Aapko Mishti se atleast ekbar milna chahiye tha na! Use bata dena chaiye tha...

Abir- I know... hamesha aisa hi hota hai.. kash mene us din Mishti se ekbar mil liya hota... Usko sab bata diya hota toh shayad aaj uski yeh halat na hoti...

Then they heard Ketu's voice calling Abir..

Abir wiping his tears- I think Mishti needs me..Me abhi aya...

And he makes his way out of room.

Kunal sat there...motionless. Uska Bhai jo din bhar hasta gata ghumta phirta hai uske Dldil me itna dard!! He was still not able to believe what his brother has gone through..

Mishti's room...

Ketki trying to make Mishti sleep when Abir entered and saw Mishti sitting on bed holding the teddy...close to her heart.

Mishti- Nhi nhi nhi...mai nhi soungi... Friend kaha hai Ketu...
Her voice was low and her eyes...
And then she saw him.. standing near the door.

Mishti ran towards him giving him a still look and finally hugging him tight.
Abir reprociated. His one hand on her back and another caressing her hairs...

Mishti- Tum aa gaye... kaha the tum! Tum..tumhe pata hai mujhe na lagaa..mujhe..mujhe bohut darr lag raha tha...

Abir- Haa Mishti me aa gya hoon... Ab me sab theek kar dunga okay? Daro mat...

Ketki- Dekho na bhai... Achanak se neend se jag gyi aur apko bulane lgi.. I think koi bura sapna dekhi hogi.
Thank God aap aa gye...

Abir- Bura sapna se bhi badtar hogi..
Koi baat nhi Ketki me aa gya hoon.. Mai sula dunga Mishti ko... tu jaa...

Abir sat on bed and Mishti put her head in his lap holding his one hand.. 
Abir starts caressing her hair through his another hand.. and in no time she fell asleep...

Kunal who was watching all this from outside, came inside.
Abir gestured Kunal not to make a noise by putting his finger on lips as Mishti is sleeping.

Kunal nodded and came near abir...

Kunal( almost whispering) - Bhai... Mishti yahan hai toh uska husband kahan hai???

Abir- Nanko, aaj me Mishti ke ghar gya tha aur...

Kunal- Aur...?

Abir- Aur security uncle ne bohut kuch bataya...
Bataya ki shaadi wale din Mishti... Mishti...

Kunal- Mishti kya bhai?!

Abir- Mishti bhaag gyi thi...Nanko... She ran away from her wedding...
