Manvi was so tired as he was just explaining and being a typical professor. She said in irritation "professor abhi bas karo kitna padhaoge aapki zuban thak jayegi bolte bolte"

Aarav smiled and said "nahi thakegi Manvi ye toh mera kaam hai thak toh tum gayi ho aaj ke liye kafi hai ek kaam karo ghar chali jao"

Manvi did not wanted to go so early, she denied and said with a fake smile "nahi professor main nahi thaki hun aap continue kijiye main likhti hun na notes"

Aarav asked her "Are you sure?"

"Haanji professor" she replied.

Aarav again started explaining her, Manvi unwantedly noted down the points. The lights went off and fan was turned off too. Aarav sighed "light ko bhi abhi jaana tha"

"Koi baat nahi professor inverter on kardeti hun na main" Manvi said.

Aarav smiled and said "Manvi mere ghar mein inverter nahi hai"

Manvi was shocked "haww? Nahi hai mere ghar mein toh hai aap kaise rehte hai itne ghante bina light ke garmi mein" she asked.

"Aadat hai Manvi ab main akela hi toh rehta hun toh kyun bekar mein inverter mein paise waste karun" Aarav said briefly.

"Aap kanjus hai?" she asked directly.

Aarav smiled and nodded in no "nahi kanjus nahi hoon bas faltu ke kharche nhi karta hun jitni zaroorat hoti hai utna hi"

Manvi asked "acha? Toh ab tak single kaise hai? Acha professor sach mein aapki koi girlfriend wagera nahi thi kabhi?"

He kept his hand on his forehead and sighed "yeh ladki firse apne sawal jawab ka session shuru karne lagi"

"Batayie na professor?" she asked again.

"No person questions Manvi padhne aayi ho na padhai karo" he said strictly.

Manvi made face "how mean professor!" and folds her arms around her chest.

"Manvi" he called her name.

But she was adamant and looked at other side "baat nahi karni hai aapse aapne mujhse aise baat ki" she complained.

"Arey! Yeh kya bachpana hai? Itni si baat pe muh fula ke baith gayi" he said.

She was silent, Aarav sighed and said "Manvi acha thik hai main batata hun"

Manvi looked at him and smiled broadly "batayie main sun rahi hoon" she said impatiently.

"Thik ek college mein lekin we broke up after a year" he said.

"Kyun aisa kya hua tha?" she asked.

"Main usko time nhi de paa raha tha ya yun kaho uski demands nhi puri kar paa raha tha ab tum toh ho hi gyani! Tumhe toh pata hi hoga girlfriends ki demands" he said jokingly.

Manvi said "haan pata hai professor lekin wo fir aapko love nhi karti thi agar bas usko apni demands puri karne ke liye aap chahiye they I mean uske liye fir aap ek wallet hue na"

Aarav was thoughtful and said "point toh hai har ladki ko yahi chahiye hota hai"

"Professor zaroori nahi hai na ab meri dost hai Shruti uska bf hai Rajeev and wo demand nhi karti hai usse kuch bas love maangti hai respect aisi bhi ladkiyan hoti hai agar aap dundhoge toh aapko mil jayegi" Manvi while looking at him kneely.

"Tumhare paas itna acha intelligent brain hai toh isey tum biology mein kyun nhi lagati?" he asked her.

"Laga toh rahi hun" Manvi said showing the book.

"Thik hai abhi chalo diagram banao bahut hua tumhara general knowledge ka question answer" Aarav said.

Manvi nodded and started drawing the diagram. Aarav was feeling hot, Manvi eyed him and thought "t-shirt utharo na professor"

Aarav placed his hand on t-shirt but then looked at Manvi. She smiled at him and continued at her work so he did not removed his t-shirt. Manvi made face, she said "professor bahut garmi hai na"

"Haan wo toh hai" Aarav replied.

"Aapki t-shirt dekho kitni wet ho gayi hai sweat se aapko change karni chahiye" she said.

"Haan main aata hoon" Aarav stood up but Manvi did not let him move.

"Kya kar rahe hai aap? Aapko fracture hai na itna door room tak jaana wo bhi ek shirt ke liye not good main leke aati hun" Manvi said.

Aarav nodded and sat back on the couch, Manvi smiled and moved into the bedroom. She opened his closet and looked "kitne kum clothes hai kanjus hi hai yeh toh" she took out the t-shirt and moved out.

Aarav removed his T-shirt, Manvi's eyes popped out seeing him like this.

She uttered "Sexxy!!"

Aarav looked at her and said "lao T-shirt do" but she was so lost looking at him.

"God!! Koi toh rok lo" Manvi said smilingly.

Aarav said a bit louder "Manvi T-shirt"

Manvi came out of her trance and moved to him. She forwards the T-shirt and he took it. He wore it immediately to which Manvi sighed "kitni jaldi pehen li aaj! Uss din ko 2 ghante aise baithe they huh"

Aarav snipped his fingers in front of her "kaha kho jaati ho tum?" he asked.

"Nahi sir.. Wo aap bade hot hai" she said directly.

Aarav smiled a bit then eyed her "stop flirting chalo diagram pura karo"

Manvi nodded and sat back, the lights also came and the fan turned on.

Shoplix Mall

Ruhana and Vineet purchased some household items. Ruhana said "sab saaman ho gaya hai Vineet chalo ab chalte hai"

Vineet said "Are lekin abhi shopping puri nhi hui hai"

Ruhana replied "sab ho gaya hai Vineet" while checking the list.

"Roo! Kyun ghar mein mahabharat karne wali baat kar rahi ho mannu ki list abhi baaki hai" Vineet said

Ruhana glared at him and said "Vineet zaroorat ka saara saaman le liya hai maine aur kuch lene ki zaroorat nahi hai samjhe tum"

"Are lekin kyun? Naraz ho jayegi fir wo" Vineet said.

"Vineet! Maine le liya hai saaman ab aur kuch nhi lena hai already zaroorat se zyada dilwa rakha hai tumne usko" she said and moved ahead along with the trolley.

"Roo dekho saaman lelo warna tumhare ghar ki haalat bigad jayegi" Vineet said teasingly.

"Wo toh waise bhi tum dono bigadte rehte ho! Main kuch nhi lene wali hun" Ruhana said adamantly.

"Ruhana please na! How unfair it will be humne shopping ki aur uske liye kuch nhi liya ek hi toh beti hai hamari" he said.

"Ek hi hai toh kya? Itna sar pe chada doge usey? Already itna bigadke rakha hai tumhe use har demand puri kar dete ho ab nahi! Yeh list ka samaan fisool ka kharcha main nhi karungi" Ruhana said in firm tone and moved to make payment.

Vineet looked on at her and thought "ab kya karun"

Ruhana was in the queue, she turned but could not find Vineet "yeh kaha chala gaya ab"

It was her turn now, she kept the things on the counter, just then Vineet came and kept the things he had in his hand. It was all what Manvi demanded. Ruhana looked at him with fixed anger gaze but could not say anything as it was public place.

Vineet said with a smile "yeh sab bhi" Ruhana lifted the bags and moved out from there. Vineet made the payment and lifted remaining bags.

They came to the basement at the parking, Vineet asked "Ruhana ruko kya hua?"

Ruhana opened the car and kept the bags inside. She sat in front closing the door. Vineet kept the other bags and moved to the driving side. He drove off, he asked her "Are kya hua Roo? Zyada saaman nhi liya hai maine uske liye"

"Zyada nahi liya? Yeh 3-4 dresses earrings jewellery wagera ki demand usne ki aur tumne le liya sab" she said in anger.

"Ruhana ab jab main afford kar sakta hun toh kyun nhi karun apni beti ki khwaish puri?" he asked her.

"Baat wo nahi hai Vineet! Itna pamper mat karo usko ki koi badi galti kar baithe wo bachi nahi hai ab wo badi ho rahi hai" Ruhana said.

"Ruhana tum bekar mein itna soch rahi ho! Agar hum uspe vishwas nhi rakhenge toh kaun rakhega?" he asked.

"Haan dikh raha hai mujhe! Itna vishwas hai ki agar wo koi bhi galti karegi toh tumhe yakeen nhi hoga! Vineet laad karna hai karo lekin itna mat karo ki wo hamare haath se nikal jaye" Ruhana said.

"Ruhana toh tum kya chahti ho? Main uspe restrictions laga dun? Taaki wo ghutan mehsus kare haan?" he said.

Ruhana sighed angrily... "maine kab kaha? Bas itna kah rahi hun band kardo uski har demand puri karna abhi ke abhi ke sab wapas karke aao"

"Nahi Ruhana main nhi karne wala hun" Vineet said.

Ruhana sighed in disappointment "okay Fine! Karo jo karna hai tumhe"

Vineet said "Manvi ko phone karke kaho lene aa rahe hai usko"

"Tumhari beti hai tum hi karlo" she said rudely.

Vineet sighed, he took out his phone and dialed Manvi's number. He informed her they are on the way and disconnected the call.

Here at Aarav's place, Manvi said "papa aa rahe mujhe pick karne professor"

Aarav smiled "Great! Toh tum apna saman pack karlo"

Manvi nodded and packed up her bags. She said "kal main 3 baje aa jaungi"

"Thik hai bye" Aarav said and Manvi moved out of the flat happily.

Aarav shook his head and thought "yeh ek dum paagal hai kabhi bhi kahi bhi kho jaati hai"

Manvi came downstairs and saw the car. She hopped in "mumma papa kaha jaa rahe hai dinner ke liye? Aur meri cheezein laaye na?" she asked excitedly

Vineet started driving, Ruhana said "koi dinner ke liye bahar nhi jaa rahe hai! Seedhe ghar"

"Lekin Roo" Vineet said.

"Kaha na maine Vineet mujhe kahi nhi jaana hai" Ruhana said in anger.

Manvi was surprised, she asked "mumma kya hua?"

"Tum toh kuch kaho hi mat! Fisool ki demand karti ho aur ye ek bigdi beti ke ache baap ki tarah sab le aate hai uthake mere mana karne ke bawajud bhi" Ruhaan said.

"Mumma.. Main" Manvi tried to speak.

Ruhana shot an angry glare, she remained silent.
