Karle Tu Bhi Mohabbat

Chapter-15

Sameer waits for Naina to answer.
Naina gulps and think of some excuse.

"Woh..woh..haa..woh Arjun bhaiya bhi kabhi kabhi yaha cricket practice ke liye aate hai...uss din main yaha se guzar rahi thi toh..toh socha bhaiya se milti chalu..magar waha tum sabko dekha."

Sameer nodded and asked,"Tumhare bade bhai bhi Cricket khelte hai?"

"Khelte hai or bohat aacha khelte hai,papa bata rahe the ki shayad agle saal tak unka selection hojayega under 19 mein."
Naina said proudly.

"Yeh toh bohat aachi baat hai...hitler ko toh tum dono per bohat garv hoga."
He said and chuckled.

She glares at him.

Sameer raise his hand in surrender.
"Sorry...mera matlab tha ki tumhare papa toh bohat khush honge..beta, cricket player or beti...student of the year...kyu haina."

Naina pursed her lips and nodded.

She thought,"Kaash unhe khushi hoti..garv hota...magar unhe koi farq nahi padta..unke liye unka ek hi baccha hai..Arjun bhaiya..meri unki life mein koi jagah nahi."

Sameer looks at her sad face and thought,
"Isse kya hua..lagta hai abhi bhi daant ka asar hai."

He calls her name,"Naina..."

Naina hums in response.

"Woh..maine toh tumhe thankyou bola hi nahi..woh hitler..mera matlab hai Rakesh sir ke thapad se bachane ke liye...toh kya fir se Samosa treat,iss baar thankyou ke badle mein."
Sameer said and smiled.

Naina just looks at him and thought,
"Shayad main galat thi isme Sameer ki koi galti nahi...galti hai toh sirf meri...kyu main intezaar kar rahi hu ki Sameer ek din meri taraf dekhega...mujhse dosti karega or shayad pyaar bhi...kyu kar rahi hu intezaar ki woh meri taraf apne kadam badhayega...main bhi toh le sakti hu na...main bhi toh pehla kadam le sakti hu..kyu hamesha darr ki wajah se apna pyaar apne dil mein rakhu...nahi Naina tujhe himaat karni hogi...or pehla kadam uthana hoga...nahi toh Sameer tera kabhi nahi ho payega."

She took a deep breath and said,
"Sirf thankyou ya Samosa treat se kaam nahi chalega..Mr Maheshwari."

Sameer raises his eyebrows,"Ohh..toh kya chahiye aapko thankyou ke badle mein Miss.Aggarwal."

They both chuckled.

Naina forwards her hand and said,"zyada kuch toh nahi....aapki dosti mil sakti hai,Mr.Maheshwari."

Sameer looks at her hand and then at her face.
She was looking at him expectantly.

He smirks and said,"Sorry,Miss.Aggarwal hum dost toh nahi ban sakte."

Naina smile fades away and she quietly starts walking back to the classroom.

Suddenly, she hears Sameer voice.

"Mujhse puchogi nahi, hum kyu dost nahi ban sakte."

Naina shook her head in response.

Sameer smiles softly and said,"Arre tumne hi kaha ki thankyou ke badle mein hum dost bane...magar madam dosti mein toh..No sorry, No thankyou wala rule hota hai...lagta hai tumne Maine pyaar kiya film nahi dekhi."

Naina smiles and looks at him.

"Toh agar aapko sorry ya thankyou ke badle mein meri dosti chahiye toh I'm sorry....magar haa agar dosti ke badle mein dosti chahiye toh..."
Sameer said and forward his hand.

"Friends."
He completes his sentence and looks at her.

Naina smiles widely and holds his hand.
"Friends."
