Memory

3 Years Ago

Naina was a new employee in Rajveer's company. He was attracted to her at first sight. Aarav saw Rajveer staring at Naina and smirked.

"Bhai.. aapko pitna hai kya?" he asked.

Rajveer glared at him and said "pitego toh tum..."

Aarav smiled "acha? Pitne waale kaam toh aap kar rahe ho.. Bolo kya Dad ko.. Dad.." he nearly shouted but Rajveer kept his hand on his mouth.

"Bhai hai ki dushman.. Chup kar" Rajveer said in a whispering tone.

Aarav jerked his hand away. Rajveer said.. "Tujhe toh meri madad karni chahiye"

"Ofcourse karunga bhaii bolo kya karun waise bhabhi hai badi beautiful" he said looking at Naina..

"Mujhe pata hai meri choice best hoti hai.. Main sham ko naina ke saath jaane waala hun tu ghar pe sambhal le samjha" Rajveer gave him instructions.

Aarav smiled "aapke liye main hitler ko sambhal lunga.. Aur agar aap pit jao toh mujhe bula lena aapko hospital le jaunga" he winked, Rajveer slapped his head and he left the cabin.

Rajveer ruffled his hairs, later in the evening Naina was waiting for an auto. She looked at her watch and it was 7pm.

He stopped his car in front of her "main drop kardun?" he asked.

"Jee nahi Sir.. I can manage" Naina replied.

"Are auto nahi milega baith jao" Rajveer spoke.

Naina finally stopped the auto, she sat inside and said "aapka comfort ye car aur mera auto hai.."

Rajveer smiled and Naina left from there. He thought "impress karna itna bhi muskil nahi hoga tumhe"

He parked his car at the side and took an auto. He asked the autodriver to follow Naina's auto. Naina got down at the market and bought some groceries.

She headed towards her house, she felt someone was following her. She turned and found Rajveer standing there. She was shocked to see him and asked "Aap yahan kya kar rahe hai??"

"Tumhara comfort samajhne ki koshish" he said with a smile.

Naina was confused hearing him. She sighed.. "Aap mera peecha kar rahe hai Sir.. kyun?"

"Kyun kuch problem hai kya?" he asked.

"Ji.. ek boss ek employee ka follow kare? Ye baat samajh nahi aayi" she said narrowing her eyebrow.

"Ab tumhe jo samajhna hai samjho" he said, he held the bag from her hand and started walking in front.

"Are.. mera samaan" she headed towards him. She snatched the bag and asked "kya kar rahe hai aap?"

"Tumhari help," Rajveer replied.

"Nahi chahiye aap please jayie" Naina said and started walking towards her home. She reached and rang the doorbell.

Manvi opened the door and smiled seeing her. She hugged her tightly "Di... aap aa gaye kabse wait kar rahi hun aapka"

"Mujhe andar toh aane de" Naina said.

Manvi bit her tongue out and she let her in. Manvi's eyes fell on Rajveer, she was shocked as he was staring at Naina.

She fumed in anger and thought "meri bhooli bhaali di ko chedne ki koshish abhi sabak sikhati hun"

She closed the door and ran upstairs on the terrace. She quickly filled the water bucket, she looked down and saw Rajveer standing at the door. She poured down the water on him and he was drenched in water fully.

Naina opened the door and was shocked to see him like that. She heard Manvi's voice "dubara meri Di ka peecha kiya na toh haath pair bhi tod dungi chalo nikalo yahan se"

Naina sighed and apologized "I am really sorry Sir.. meri behen thodi pagal hai.."

Rajveer gave her a look "it is fine."

He sneezed a bit, Naina let him inside the house. Manvi shouted "tum andar kaise aaye?? Main chillaungi..."

Naina went to her and scolded her "chup.. Kuch bhi karti aur bolti hai wo mere boss hai"

Manvi spoke "boss hai toh kya.." she paused and realised what Naina spoke. Manvi bit her tongue out as she misunderstood Rajveer. She ran into her room and locked it.

Naina went to her room and brought a shirt and trousers. She handed him "ye mere cousin ke kapde hai aapko fit ho jayenge bathroom udhar hai" she said poiting towards her left.

Rajveer held them and went to the bathroom. She went to the kitchen and prepared some snacks for him.

She came out and kept it on the table. She looked at him and asked "aap kyun aaye? Maine kaha tha na aap wapas jayie.."

Rajveer replied "emm.. Kyun? Mera tumhe yahan aana acha nahi laga?"

Naina was silent, they looked at each other. Manvi came out of the room and sat down on the couch. She took the pakoda plate and started eating carelessly.

Naina slapped her head "thik se baithke kha.."

Manvi frowned "main aise hi khati hun.."

"Aur I am sorry.. Mujhe pata nahi tha aap Di ke boss hai" she said looking at Rajveer.

Rajveer smiled at her, she kept on questioning him and making him irritate.

Naina spoke "mannu.. Saal bhar ki baatein karegi? Chal jaake room mein padhai kar"

Manvi sighed "haa haa bhagalo mujhe.. Huh naye dost jo mil gaye meri kya zaroorat hai" she said dramatically and marched towards her room.

"Sorry.. Meri behen thodi jhalli hai" Naina replied.

Rajveer smiled, his phone ranged and he picked up the call "bhai.. Jaldi ghar aao hitler ko aur nahi jhel sakta main"

"I should leave and thank you for the clothes," he said to Naina while ending the call.

Naina watched him sit into the auto and leaving the place, a smile appeared on her face.

Manvi kept her arms around her neck and asked "hm.. Boss ghar tak aa gaye lagta hai lattu ho gaye hai aap par"

Naina glared at her "tera deemag in sab mamlo mein kuch zyada hi daudta hai??"

"Main toh bas kah rahi thi.." Manvi replied.

Naina took her inside the house and they had dinner together.

Rajveer arrived home, he saw Anand and Rama waiting for her. Anand asked "kaha they tum? Kabse wait kar rahe hai pata hai na dinner ka time thik 9 baje hota hai"

"Dad.. zaroori kaam tha" Rajveer replied.

"Kaunsa zaroori kaam?" Anand questioned.

"Har baat aapko batana main zaroori nahi samajhta hun" Rajveer gave him a cold reply.

Aarav interrupted "Dad bhai aa gaye na ab khana khate hai"

Anand nodded and they had dinner. Rajveer thanked him for saving his life.

Anand noticed his clothes and asked "ye kya middle class kapde pehenne hai tumne??"

Rajveer sighed.. "Dad inmei burayi hi kya hai?"

"It does not match our standard hamare ghar ke naukar bhi aise kapde nahi pehente hai I don't want to see these clothes again" Anand said in a warning tone, Rajveer nodded in yes.

He just hated his father's behaviour towards people lower than him.

"Dad.. wo college main sports tournament hai mera selection hua hai" Aarav said.

"Toh? You are not going to play with people below our honour and class exams aane waale hai na toh just focus on that" Anand said strictly.

Rajveer knows Aarav's love towards sport. Rajveer said "Dad.. lene dijiye na please"

"Please Rajveer.. Iss ghar mein faisle mere chalte hai finish your studies and join the business" Anand replied.

Aarav sighed in disappointment and murmured "hitler chala gaya aur peeche apni parchai chod gaya"

Rajveer hit his arm and glared at him. Aarav gave him a look and ate the food.

After a few moths, Naina was in the street food stall. Rajveer came there and said "hey.."

Naina got scared "Aap.. jahan main jaati hun aa jaate hai"

"Haa.. bhook lagi hai mujhe" he said while pointing towards his stomach.

He held the pav bhaji plate from her hand. Naina said "aap ye nahi kaha sakte hai bahut teekha hai"

He smiled and ate, it was really spicy. He never had this kind of food, but ate it for her. She smiled, he coughed badly. Naina gave him water to drink, he drank it.

"Waise mujhe pata nahi tha mera boss itna kuch kar sakta hai kisi ladki ke peeche?" Naina said.

"What do you mean by kisi ladki ke peeche? Tumhare liye hi kar raha hun.. I love you" he confessed.

Naina was left surprised hearing him "what??" she said in a state of shock.

"Yea.. do mahine se tumhare peeche bhaag raha hun.. Kabhi auto mein kabhi rikshaw mein aur ye teekha khana.." he said.

Naina smiled and said "acha..? Toh yeh sab mujhe impress karne ke liye kiya hai aapne"

He nodded in yes.

Naina turned to leave, she walked a few steps but stopped. She turned back to him and said "Agar aap nahi bhi karte toh bhi aap mujhe pasand ho.. Mere liye khudko badalne ki zaroorat nahi thi aapko"

He was left astonished at her words. Rajveer approached her and asked "kya?? Matlab tum bhi mujhse pyaar karti ho?"

Naina smiled and said "Agar nahi karti na jo jis din tumne mera peecha kiya mere ghar tak aaye.. Mohalle mein pit jaate.."

Rajveer laughed.. "Ohho. toh shaadi ka kya khayal hai?" he asked.

"Bahut aage jaa rahe ho tum Raj.. pehle apne gharwalo se toh baat karlo" Naina said.

"Wo toh ho jaogi tum batao shaadi karogi?" he asked, forwarding his hand. She nodded and hugged him tightly.

Naina came out trance of her thoughts..

She made Manvi understand "wo tujhse pyaar karta hai mannu tera pyaar paane ke liye usne jhooth kaha.. Agar wo bata deta ki wo boss hai toh tu uski taraf dekhti tak nahi.."

"Exactly, manvi.. Sahi kah rahi hai tumhari Di" Rajveer supported her.

Manvi sighed at her stupidity.. "God.. aap dono sahi kah rahe ho.. Jiju aapne bhi toh Di ke liye itna kuch kiya wo bhi mere saath sab kuch karta tha main itni badi idiot hun kitna kuch kah diya usko" she said sadly.

"Meri jhalli behen.. Ab usko mana le" Naina said kissing her forehead.

"Haan main manaungi usko" Manvi said with a smile on her face.

She called him but his phone was switched off. Manvi sighed and decided to meet him tomorrow in the office.
