Chapter 23
Hello everyone 😇😇... Hope all are safe and fine 🤗🤗...
Thanks for all those who had spent their precious time in reading my works 😇😇... Now let's see our abhigya's journey 😜😜...
Abhi and Pragya reached his shooting spot, and Abhi introduced Pragya to his crew. After a small introduction, they left to his caravan and the make-up artist started her work.
Abhi was sitting infront of the mirror as the make-up artist does her job while he was talking with Pragya and cracking jokes. They heard a knock on the door and Abhi gave permission to enter inside.
"Hey, what a surprise!", Abhi asks surprised still sitting on his chair.
"I heard you brought your wife to the set, so thought to meet her as you didn't introduce me personally to her", That person says rolling eyes.
"You were not there when we reached. Anyways, Pragya this is Tanu Mehta, she is a model and lead of this ad, and Tanu, this is my wife Pragya", Abhi introduced them.
"Hello", Pragya smiles politely.
"Nice to meet you, Pragya", Tanu hugs her smiling and turns to Abhi, she asks, "Everyone knows I am a model, Abhishek. What's the need for giving my biodata?"
"Well, she doesn't know. Infact she didn't even know me", Abhi says chuckling earning a whack from Pragya.
Tanu chuckles seeing their fight, while Pragya says embarrassed, "Sorry. Actually..."
"No problem, It looks so nice to see you both together. I will see you outside, actually I need to do my makeover or else director will eat my head. Gotta go, bye", Tanu says smiling and moves outside to her caravan.
Pragya angrily turns to glare at Abhi while he was suppressing his laugh. Pragya sits back on her place frowning and waiting for the make-up artist to finish her job and leave. Once her job was done, she left from there leaving Abhi and Pragya alone.
Pragya stands up and asks poking his shoulder, "Have you ever made any resolution to pull others leg and embarrass them like you did now?"
"No! Why will I pull others leg when I have you? It was so fun", Abhi says chuckling.
Pragya raises her hand to smack his head while Abhi moves little back and says, "Now don't spoil my hair and it will take time for me to set it again"
"Oh! Then it is going to get spoilt", Pragya says tries to spoil his hair.
"No... Now you can't escape", Abhi says as he tickled her making her to laugh.
Abhishek continued to tickle her while Pragya pleads him to leave her and he did.
"Now come, let's go to the spot. It's almost time", Abhi insists.
"No way! I am staying here, you go and finish your work and come back. We'll leave, I am so bored here", Pragya says rolling her eyes.
Abhi tucks her hair behind her ear and says, "That's what I saying, you will be bored even more when you stay here. Come with me and see the shoot, maybe you'll get entertained"
Pragya thoughts and says, "I think it's a better idea than staying here alone"
"Great! And we are going for a drive and then dinner after my pack up", Abhi said as he moves out holding Pragya's hand.
Abhi and Pragya steps out from the caravan, while Pragya asks, "Wait! When did you planned this? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I just informed aunty that we will be returning home after your work done"
Abhi walks further and replies, "I didn't plan it, just decided now. Don't worry, I will inform mom. She won't mind"
Pragya walks holding his hand and says gently, "Still, it's a basic manners to inform before going somewhere. She might get worried if we didn't reach home soon"
"Ok, sorry. Next time, it won't happen", Abhi promises turning to look at her smiling.
Pragya smiles and says, "Good. Now go and finish your work"
"Hey guys", Tanu comes towards them smiling changed into a different costume for the shoot.
Pragya smiles at her while Abhi asks, "Tanu, did you finished your shot?"
"Yeah, just now. I have another shot after break", Tanu replies confused.
"Can you be with Pragya till then? She might be alone", Abhi asks her.
"It's ok. I can manage", Pragya quickly says not wanting to disturb her.
"Yeah, why not? Even I was thinking to talk with her. Your wife will be safe with me, Abhishek. You can go ", Tanu replies.
"Ok, thanks", Abhi thanked her and turning to Pragya, he says, "I will just come. If you are not comfortable here, then call me. Ok?"
Pragya nods and Abhi leaves from there. Tanu and Pragya sits together and talked about random things. In short span of time, Pragya understood Tanu is a career oriented and a hard-working girl.
"That's so great to hear", Pragya complimented Tanu amazed.
"Yeah, but I need some distraction from work to concentrate on my life too, right?", Tanu asks shaking her head and adds, "Actually I planned to quit modelling once I decided to get settled"
"Have you ever thought about it?"
"Don't tell anyone because I haven't tell anyone about this. Actually, Me and Shravan planned to get married after 6 months"
"Shravan? You mean, Shravan Choudhary, director?", Pragya asks with surprised smile.
"Yes", Tanu says blushing and adds, "I was freaked out when Abhishek and my name was tagged together last time, but thankfully he opened up his relationship"
Pragya chuckles hearing her and that's when someone offers coffee to Tanu and juice to Pragya.
"No thanks. I am fine", Pragya denies politely.
"But mam, Abhi sir told me to give this to you", That person insists.
Pragya turns to look at Abhi and found him talking with the camera man, when he noticed her looking at him, he gave a thumbs up and nods his head approvingly.
Pragya shakes her head in disbelief and takes that juice, "Thank you"
That man nods smiling and left from there. Tanu gave a teasing glance to Pragya while Pragya smiles shaking her head.
After his pack up, Abhi comes towards Pragya and found her chatting with Tanu still.
"Hey, ladies", Abhi comes and sits beside Pragya resting his hand on her shoulder.
"Done?", Pragya asks smiling.
"Yeah, let's leave. And by the way, what were you both talking about?", Abhi asks her.
"She was suggesting me a book. See", Tanu shows him a chit, which has some books names.
"No book topic here", Abhi shakes his head and turning to Pragya he asks, "Shall we leave?"
Pragya nods and says to Tanu, "Bye, Tanu"
"Bye, Tanu", Abhi says.
"Bye guys. See you both sometime later", Tanu waves at them.
Abhi was driving while Pragya was talking with him non-stop as he nods and replies for few of her questions. Once Abhi turned to a most familiar route, Pragya found out where they were going.
"Ah! We are coming here after a long time", Pragya says looking outside the window.
"After a looonngg time. I forgot when we came here last time", Abhi says smiling as he stopped the car.
Abhi and Pragya stepped out from the car as she moved towards the end and stands there holding the rail, looks at the whole city from there. The chill breeze, glowing city view at this night was such a beautiful thing to appreciate.
Abhi stands behind her holding the rail by both of his hands, caging her inbetween the rail and him.
Pragya points a direction and says, "This is the way through which we reached here"
Abhi chuckles as he holds her hand and moved it to exactly opposite direction and says, "This way"
"Oh!", Pragya smiles sheepishly.
Whenever they come here, she would say my home is in this direction, your studio is this direction etc etc... But she was never successful in pointing the right direction.
"This feels so nice", Pragya says inhaling the natural air as the cool breeze rubs her skin gently.
"Are you happy with me?", Abhi asks her looking at the city view.
Pragya slowly turned around facing him, she asks, "Am I looking unhappy?"
Abhi shakes his head, "You looks happy. But still you feel sad about what happened. Your mom and bulbul... You miss them. I don't know whether she will ever accept us or..."
"She will", Pragya quickly replies.
"How can be so sure? Did you forgot the way she got angry?"
"I am sure because she is my mother. Did you forgot how angry I was when you lied to me about your identity, still I forgave you", Pragya points out.
"Yeah... Like mother as daughter. Both gets angry and makes me feel so terrible", Abhi mutters rolling his eyes.
"Aww... Don't feel so bad, she will accept us definitely. Right now she is in the misconception that I love Abhi The Rockstar, the man she doesn't like. But she is wrong, I always loved Abhishek Prem Mehra, she doesn't know that. Can we blame her?"
"She could have gave us a chance to explain, she didn't do that", Abhi points out looking away.
Pragya makes him to face her and says, "Let her realise we are not wrong, our decision is not wrong. Once she realised, she will forget and forgive everything happened. Till then, don't take stress"
"That's right. Let's concentrate on us first", Abhi hugs her making her giggle as she hugs him back.
"Let's go. I am hungry", Pragya says pushing him slightly.
"Yeah. Come", Abhi replies and walks to the car.
Pragya takes a step and realised, her saree pallu was strucked in the rail. She bends down and removed her saree, when she looks up, she noticed a shooting star falling from the sky.
"Abhi... Abhi", Pragya calls him excitedly.
Abhi worriedly runs towards her, "What? What happened?"
"There was a shooting star. I saw it"
Abhi excitedly replies, "Then make a wish"
Pragya looked at him in confusion while Abhi asks, "Haven't you heard people say, " Wish upon a shooting star and it will come true"? "
"That I know. But you believe it all?"
"I do. Now make a wish", Abhi says hugging her from behind.
Pragya closed her eyes smiling and wishes, "I wish we both live happily with our United family. I want my full family together always"
Seeing her opening her eyes, Abhi asks, "Done?"
"Yes. Now let's move?"
Abhi nods and both left from there. They had their dinner in a motel and returned home safely. Days passed, everything remains same including the bitterness in the relationship with Pragya's mother.
After clearing everything with the college management, Pragya was all set to resume her work.
"Pragya wait, let me take my coolers", Abhi shouts from the room searching for his coolers.
"You search, I am leaving", Pragya replies running down the stairs.
Finally Abhi found his coolers and he ran down to catch her.
"Bye Pragya. Have a nice day", Ram wishes her.
"Bye Bhabhi, even I am getting late. Bye dad, bye mom", Alia says and rushes outside.
"I told you to wait", Abhi says frowning.
"You are making me late. I was never late to my work. Now come. Bye uncle, aunty", Pragya starts to move out.
Abhi shakes his head and runs behind her like as usual. They reached her college and Pragya quickly turns to leave while Abhi stops her.
"Atleast say a bye and go", Abhi asks cutely.
Pragya kissed his cheek and left after saying bye. Abhi smiles and left from there, ensuring that she safely entered inside the campus.
"Hi, Pragya", Pragya heard someone calling her.
"Good morning, Parth", Pragya wishes her colleague smiling.
"I heard you got married. Rockstar Abhi! No invitation, no information... Very bad Pragya", Parth says shaking his head.
Pragya apologized and they both starts towards staff room. Pragya noticed all the new and unwanted attention she is getting because of her marriage, she ignored most of the people as it wasn't her duty to entertain everyone with gossips. She silently starts to do her job as usual.
On the other side, Abhi reached Purab's office and directly entered his cabin. Purab, who was aware of his arrival at the office, was standing near the window looking outside not wanting to face him.
"Purab", Abhi called him as he entered in.
Purab stands there without facing him.
"I kept calling you multiple times, but you didn't pick any of my calls. For the past few days, I couldn't get you through call and lately I realised you have blocked my number too. May I know the reason?", Abhi asks hurt.
"I don't want this to happen, Abhi. But it happened. I don't want to disappoint Ragini aunty, she beleive me, trust me. Already I am feeling guilty for hiding about you both from her, now I don't want to hurt her more. I know you are happy with your new life, congratulations. But don't expect more from me, I want to be loyal to Ragini aunty and I don't want to leave her alone. I hope you understand", Purab reasons without turning back.
Abhi chuckles sadly and says, "Thank you, Purab. I was worried that now, only bulbul was there to take of everything but I forgot even you are their family member. I can be relieved a little with the hope that you will take care of them and I can say Pragya that purab is there to care of them. She will be less worried. I am not going to disturb you again. Bye, take care of you and them"
Purab turns back only to see the retreating figure of Abhi. It's true Abhi is his childhood friend, it's also true that now Bulbul's family is his too. Purab is sure that Abhi and Pragya will be happy, so he decided to take care of bulbul and her mom's happiness.
Pragya entered inside her class and noticed almost every student's curious eyes on her. From the time she entered the college campus, getting attention is the only constant thing. She was prepared well enough to answer her student's questions as she was doing this in every classes.
Pragya greeted them with a good morning wish while the students returns the same. She grabs the marker and turns to the board and heard a curious voice behind her, "How is our Rockstar doing?"
Pragya chuckles silently, turns to face them and answers, "As usual. Great"
"You know how heartbroken and shocked I was?", a girl asked.
"Heartbroken! What happened?", Pragya asks casually placing the marker aside.
"Heartbroken, because our Rockstar got married leaving us in depression. Shocked, because our lecturer is his wife and we didn't even know", another girls answers making Pragya to chuckle softly.
"And one day I saw you going with someone in his bike. I thought maybe your friend or boyfriend, now I got to know that he is your husband", a boy says laughing making everyone laugh.
"Friend, boyfriend and husband, All are same. Students, don't you think we are making more personal conversation in our professional class hours. So let's concentrate on that", Pragya replies smiling and turns to the board and starts to teach.
Abhi was waiting outside Pragya's college in his black leather jacket, helmet completely hiding his face, to pick her up. It's almost time for her return, but she didn't. Abhi takes his mobile to call her, before that he noticed Pragya's colleague, Parth.
"Parth", Abhi calls him little loudly.
Parth looks at him confused, doesn't recognising him. He moved towards Abhi and asks, "May I know you?"
"No. But I know you. Anyways, did you see Pragya? Classes didn't finished yet?", Abhi asks him still the helmet covering his face.
Parth recognised him as Abhi and says, "Abhishek Mehra! Pragya is in principal office. She might be returning. How do you know me? Pragya told?"
"No! She didn't. I know about you even before starting to talk with her. Actually, when I was stalking her, I saw you talking with her. I didn't like the way she was smiling at your comments, so I hired a private investigator and got to know about you fully. Then I got to know you are her good friend and that's the only reason you are standing on your prefect legs instead of broken. Because I was so desperate to broke your legs for talking with Pragya and made me so jealous, then I dropped that idea as she won't feel good if her friend was hurt, right?", Abhi replies with a tight smile remembering the day when he saw Pragya with him leaving together from the work.
"You are joking, right?", Parth asks as he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Definitely not. I won't lie in my Pragya's matter", Abhi answers seriously and casually adds, "Now no worries, because she is my wife and she loves me only. Also you are her good friend always"
Parth was staring at him in shock. What kind of species is standing infront of him? Sometime before he was speaking like an obssessed pyscho and now like an understanding husband. Before he could retrive from the shock both heard Pragya's voice. She excitedly runs to Abhi and hugs him happily while he hugs her back smiling.
"What are you doing here? You don't have work? And you come by bike?", Pragya asks abhi.
"Work got finished earlier than I expected, so thought to surprise you like this and yes, I come by bike. Shall we leave?"
"Ok. Wait... This is Parth, he is..."
"Your colleague, handling chemistry and he is your first friend when you joined college", Abhi finished her sentence.
"How do you know all this?"
"You didn't see, we were talking. Anyways let's leave. Even Parth has to reach home at correct time"
"Oh yeah! Bye Parth"
"Huh?... Oh! Bye, Pragya", Parth leaves from there too shocked to react to Abhi's counter. Abhi is really unpredictable.
"Why he was looking so shocked?", Pragya asks getting on his bike.
"Don't know", Abhi drove off to their house.
Three months rolled in jet speed, Abhi and Pragya spent time together more inspite of their different jobs. Family members were always happy to see them together and happy,even if some issues occures between them, both handles it wisely and solves without messing it up more.
Abhi had signed for a concert in Delhi and the date reached. Pragya was helping Abhi in packing his luggage, that's when she found a doll from his cupboard.
"Abhi... Whose doll is this?", Pragya asks showing him a doll.
Abhi smiles seeing the doll and answers, "I don't remember, but I have this doll with me from my childhood"
"Maybe Alia's doll"
"No... I remember, this doll is with me even before she born. Do you know from whom you got the name fuggy?"
Pragya curiously looked at him while Abhi points her that doll.
"She is fuggy?", Pragya asks shocked pointiing the doll.
Abhi says chuckling seeing her shocked face, "Yes. I don't remember from where I got this but I still remember her name. Isn't that amazing?"
Pragya makes faces. Priya, who came there to check on them asks, "All done?"
"Yeah, everything done", Pragya says zipping the bag leaving the doll on the bed.
Priya noticed that doll and remembers something...
Flashback...
"Neil, You all are leaving now?", Ram asks surprised.
"Yes, Chacha and chachi accepted us and they want us to return back to Delhi, that too now", Neil answers happily.
"I am so happy for you both. We'll miss you all a lot", Priya says little sadly.
"Even we. Where is Pragya? I came here to take her with me", Neil asks.
"Actually she slept. She is in Abhi's room", Priya answers.
"I think its good then. Or else she will cry a lot and fall sick. Let me take her", Neil leaves to Abhi's room.
When he entered he saw a 6 years old Abhi sleeping on the one end hugging his toy while on the other end, 3 years old Pragya with her doll. Neil picks her up without disturbing her sleep and starts to leave. The doll was slipped from Pragya's hand and Neil took her outside without realising it.
Ram and Priya sends off them wishing a bright future ahead. When Abhi comes awake, he noticed Pragya's doll lying there but she wasn't found anywhere. When he asked about her to his mom, she said that Pragya had left with her parents on a vacation and forgot her doll there, not wanting to hurt him by saying the truth that she was not going to return.
And Abhi told her, he will keep the doll safe and give it back to Pragya when she come back and scold her for being so careless.
End of flashback...
Priya chuckles thinking about how Abhi kept on pestering her to bring Pragya back as her doll was missing her and how he was scolding Pragya infront of them for leaving her doll alone.
And now they forgot all the thing happened and they become big enough to handle a new relationship and a new life together.
"Mom... What are you laughing at?", Abhi asks making her to come back to the present.
Priya shakes her head, "Nothing. Just remembered some old memories. You pack your stuffs and leave on time"
After cross checking everything, Abhi left to Delhi for his concert.
To be continued...
With love,
Sweety
