Sonakshi walked out of the mall and waited at the curb for a taxi. As she kept walking on the sidewalk, she spotted Samaira stepping out of a bank. An excited Sonakshi ran towards her sister, "Samaira! Tu yahan kya kar rahi hai?"

"Sonakshi tu?" Samaira glanced at her shopping bags, "O...Ho....shopping....kiske liye? Aaj se pehle toh tujhey shopping karte dekha nahin....can I see? Main bhi toh dekhun hone waale jiju ke liye kya khareeda hai?" Samaira tried to snatch the bags from her sister's hands.

Sonakshi gave her a stern look, "Samaira! Tub hi na......yeh jiju jiju kya lagaa rakha hai?"

"So I am right....haina?" Samaira tried to peep inside the bags.

Sonakshi's phone rang at that moment, "Pia? Kahan hai tu? Hospital? Main abhi aati hoon!" A frightened Sonakshi handed her bags to Samaira, "please yeh bags apne saath ghar le jaana.....I need to go and see Pia....uska accident ho gaya hai."

Samaira took the bags, "tu chinta mat kar Sonakshi...go attend to your friend.....I will take these bags with me when I go home in the evening."

Sonakshi hailed a taxi and rushed off to City Hospital.

Samaira got back to the office dangling the shopping bags on her shoulder. Dev saw her walk to her cabin with the bags. He recognized the bags from the department store, but was amazed to see that she had changed up from her churidaar suit to a skirt and top that quickly, "how does she manage to do that? I hope someone can tell her that she looks so nice in those Indian clothes... does she like to tease me in these western outfits?"

Samaira waved at him and flashed a big smile. She was still on a high after her date with Rehaan last night. She was amazed that Dev was so skilled at disguising himself so well- his personality, mannerisms, gait, looks all changed so drastically when he was 'Rehaan.'

Dev was pleased that she was back to her bubbly self despite the yelling he gave her yesterday. This was the first time he had ever apologized to an employee after getting upset at them; he was glad he had called her at home that morning to say sorry. He did not want the other employees to know that he had taken her out to lunch and then called her at home to apologize- that would be too embarrassing for him. He walked up to Samaira, "hi Sonakshi! How are you?"

Samaira smiled again, "I am fine....tum...I mean aap kaise hain SIR?" she winked at him. Dev was a little startled at the wink, "*cough*cough* well....main bas yeh kehne aaya tha ki kal jo bhi hua wo sirf hamare beech mein hi rehna chaahiye....understand?"

Samaira rolled her tongue, "of course sir...I remember the rules....no personal talk....aur aapki secret sirf main hi jaanti hoon......don't worry, no one will ever know that we went out together," she was of course referring to her date with Rehaan, whereas Dev was still referring to their lunch at the Chinese restaurant.

"Thanks! You know yeh meri reputation ka sawaal hai," Dev scanned his eyes all around to make sure no one was listening.
"Aapki reputation ka mujhey poora khayal hai sir!" Samaira grinned and came closer, "after all you are the boss!"

Dev nodded his head and walked back to his office.

Sonakshi reached the hospital to find Pia in a cast, "are you OK Pia?"

"Main bilkul theek hoon...bas ek chota sa fracture hai," Pia limped out of the exam room, "chal mujhey ghar le chal."

Sonakshi helped Pia into the car and drove to her house.

"Sonakshi...sun yeh aaj shaam ki do tickets hain...Rehaan is performing at the Taj tonight......main toh jaa nahin paaoongi...tu chali jaana," Pia handed the tickets to Sonakshi.

Sonakshi protested, "nahin tere bina kaise jaa sakti hoon?"

"No Sonakshi...you have to go....please...Ok?" Pia forced the tickets into Sonakshi's bag.

Sonakshi knew it was hard for her to resist the invitation. She had garnered more courage lately; she was not hesitant to go out in the evening any more, especially if it meant meeting her Rehaan.....she felt more secure and comfortable about him now. It was only this morning that he had called and checked on her, and apologized for 'kissing' her.

That evening, Sonakshi dressed in a beautiful yellow saree, sleeveless blouse and matching jewelry to attend Rehaan's performance. Asha and Bijoy were out for a friend's 25 th anniversary party.

Samaira was late coming back from work. A forgetful Samaira, left the shopping bags at work under her desk. Sonakshi was gone by the time Samaira came back home.

Sonakshi was given permission to see Rehaan in the dressing room by the security personnel. She saw the door ajar and let herself in.

"Haven't you learnt to knock?" An angry Rehaan with bloodshot eyes was punching a bag with his boxing gloves.

Sonakshi was startled, "Oh..I am sorry....." she said, afraid

Rehaan threw away his gloves and walked over to her. He was blown away when he saw her dressed in a beautiful saree- she was gorgeous, much more than he had ever thought. He gasped, but then remembered how she had addressed him as 'Dev' the night before.

"Toh apne doosre aashiq se time nikaal
liya, jo ab mere paas aayi ho?" he said brusquely.

Sonakshi was aghast, "yeh..yeh..aap kya keh rahe hain?" she was almost tearful, "aapke alaawa meri zindagi mein koi...koi bhi nahin hai," she started sobbing silently.

Rehaan's heart melted as he stared into her glistening eyes. He thought, 'ho sakta hai mujhse hi koi galti huyi ho...those eyes can never lie to me....I was a little drunk last night.....maybe I heard something wrong....even she was acting so weird last night......maybe it was all a dream........ Samaira sirf meri hai!"

"Please don't cry Samaira! I am sorry...aur yeh Dev kaun hai?" Rehaan placed his hands on her shoulders.

Sonakshi looked up at him in bewilderment, "Dev? Main kisi Dev ko nahin jaanti....aap ko koi misunderstanding hui hai," she was surprised that he was addressing her as Samaira once again- it was only that morning he had called her by her real name.

"Oh...I am sorry Samaira.....I am known to be very forgetful.....maybe I was dreaming or something," he was puzzled himself. He wiped her tears and kissed her eyelids," Samaira tum sirf meri ho.....main yeh kabhie bardasht nahin kar sakta ki tum aur kisi ki ho jao....I love you Samaira....you belong to me," he hugged her passionately as she sobbed silently on his chest.

"I love you too," she mumbled on his chest.

Rehaan pulled away, "what did you just say?" he was ecstatic. He kissed her forehead and brushed his lips tenderly on her face, "I was so desperate to hear this Samaira..chalo aaj tumhey ek special jagah le jaata hoon."

Sonakshi looked up and wiped her tears, "kahan? Lekin aapka performance?"

Rehaan dialed a number, "I am not performing tonight....just cancel the show....I SAID JUST CANCEL THE SHOW! JUST TELL IQBAL I AM NOT IN A MOOD TONIGHT...OK?" Rehaan hung up in frustration and threw the phone away on the couch. Sonakshi was a little taken aback by his temper.

"A...Aap...show kyon cancel kar rahe hain?" she asked hesitantly.

"Samaira...aaj ki shaam main sirf tumhare saath rehna chaahta hoon.....I don't want to be bound by anyone tonight...neither Iqbal nor this hotel!" Rehaan pulled her closer and crushed her in his arms. He gently removed the hair falling on her face and kissed her lips tenderly. She circled her arms around his neck instinctively, almost melting in his arms and warm breathes. Their second kiss was even sweeter and deeper than their first one. The kiss soon became more passionate and possessive as he explored the deeper corners of her mouth. He took the liberty of caressing her bare waist and naval area with his fingers. Sonakshi gasped with pleasure as his other hand explored her neck and back.

Rehaan looked up as Sonakshi touched her grazed lip with her fingers.
"Kya hua? Was I too harsh?" Rehaan asked

Sonakshi lowered her eyes and shook her head; she was out of breath herself and flushed from head to toe.

Rehaan touched her lip gently with his finger, "my beard? Right?"

Sonakshi nodded silently. Rehaan chuckled, "Samaira...I promise I will get rid of my beard now....jis cheez se tumhe problem ho, uss cheez ko rehne ka koi haq nahin hai."

Sonakshi buried her head in his face, "aap meri wajah se apne aap ko mat change kijiye."

"Chalo, let's leave quickly, otherwise it would be hard to escape," Rehaan grabbed her wrist and pulled her along with him. They escaped from the rear exit of the hotel and sprinted for his car.

Rehaan drove like a maniac till they arrived at an isolated house near a beach.
Sonakshi looked at him quizzically, "yeh hum kahaan aa gaye?"

"Samaira....yeh mera beach house hai...aao tumhey dikhata hoon," Rehaan helped her out of the car.

Sonakshi followed him slowly. They entered a beautiful small cottage by the sea. It was exquisitely decorated with art work from all over the world. The furnishing and fittings had been imported from the best designers and builders.

Sonakshi thought she was in a miniature palace, "yahan kaun rehta hai?"

"Koi nahin!" Rehaan commented, "main kabhie kabhie yahan apni music rehearsals ke liye aata hoon.....zyaadatar toh dadi ke paas hi rehta hoon ya phir tours par rehta hoon....i have to travel a lot you see."

"toh dadi ko yahan kyon nahin laate?" Sonakshi asked

"Wo yahan aana nahin chaahti.....for some reason she does not have good memories associated with this place.....but I love this place...pata nahin kyon, but I feel at home here.....ab tum aa gayi ho toh ho sakta hai yahan rehne bhi lag jaaoon?" he grinned seductively.

Sonakshi turned red at that comment.

"Don't worry Samaira.....bina shaadi ke yahan nahin rahogi tum....will you marry me Samaira?" Rehaan came close to her and brushed his fingers against her face.

Sonakshi was wordless; she had not even mentioned anything about Rehaan to her parents......marriage? How could she break that news to them? Samaira knew that she was 'seeing' someone, but marriage? Yeh toh maine socha hi nahin tha.....lekin Rehaan ke bina main reh bhi toh nahin sakti.

"Aap...aapko apni dadi se bhi toh baat karni chaahiye na? Aur mere parents?" Sonakshi hesitated

"agar tum haan keh do, toh main khud tumhare parents se baat karoonga....dadi toh sirf meri khushi chaahti hai," Rehaan cupped her face with his hands.

"Lekin aap...aap muslim aur main hindu?" Sonakshi looked up

"Oh Samaira! Itni choti si baat? You love me don't you?" he asked as he looked into her eyes.

She nodded and lowered her eyes.

"Then don't worry......humein saath rehne ke liye sirf pyaar chaahiye.....yeh sab se koi fark nahiin padta. Come...I want to show you something," Rehaan grabbed her wrist and walked out into the backyard facing the ocean.

He pointed at the sea, "yeh dekho...the waves of the sea, the stars in the sky...woh na hi Hindu hain, naa Muslim....fir bhi sab saath hain...jaise hum donon...haina??"

Sonakshi stared into his eyes; there was so much honesty and love for her in his eyes, there was no way she could leave them now. She smiled through her tears, "haan....aap sahi keh rahe hain...aur jaisa aap kahenge waisa hi hoga."

"Hmmm....toh chalo yahan rock par baith te hain aur aaj raat tum gaana sunaaogi mujhe," he picked her up in his arms and placed her on the rock gently. He climbed up and joined her on the hammock.

Sonakshi shrieked a little as she thought they might both topple off the rock.

Rehaan grabbed her waist and held her tightly. His legs entwined around her legs; they lay quietly as the hammock swayed with the gentle breeze.

"Ab maine pakad liya hai tumhe....you won't fall...ab toh ek song suna do," Rehaan crushed her in his arms.

"Pehle aap shuru kijiye...I will join in between" Sonakshi said softly

Rehaan started humming a beautiful romantic song...and Sonakshi joined him....

Na jiya zindagi ek pal bhi
Tujhse hoke judaa sun zara
Bin tere mujhse naaraaz tha dil
Tu mila hai toh hai keh raha

Main toh tere rang mein
Rang chuka hoon
Bas tera ban chuka hoon
Mera mujhme kuch nahi sab tera

Main toh tere dhang mein
Dhal chuki hoon
Bas teri ban chuki hoon
Mera mujhme kuch nahi
Sab tera, sab tera..
Sab tera, sab tera..

Phir dil ke raaston pe
Teri aahat jo hui
Har dhadkan jashan mein hai
Yeh inaayat jo hui (x2)

Main toh tujhe milke jee uthi hoon
Teri dhadkan mein chhupi hoon
Mera mujhme kuch nahin
Sab tera, sab tera..
Sab tera, sab tera..
Hey... ha...

Jis pal tu saath mere
Uss pal mein zindagi hai
Tujhe paake paaya sab kuch
Koi khwahish ab nahi hai (x2)

Mmm.. main toh bas tujhse hi bana hoon
Tere bin main bewajah hoon
Mera mujhe kuch bhi nahi
Sab tera, sab tera..
Sab tera, sab tera..

As the song finished, Rehaan kissed Sonakshi's neck and caressed her bare arms with his fingers, "you are beautiful Samaira!"

Sonakshi moaned in pleasure and closed her eyes, "mera naam Sonakshi hai....please call me Sonakshi....not Samaira," she said softly as Rehaan's lips on her face, ears and neck drove her crazy.

Rehaan just mumbled under his breath, "I don't care what your name is......main toh bas tumhe pyaar karta hoon......"

Sonakshi groaned again and buried her face in his neck, "aur nahin please......mujhey wapas jaana hai."

Rehaan pulled away, "you are right my love......I don't want to do anything we should not do before marriage.....chalo let's go back home."

Rehaan dropped Sonakshi home and as he drove off, he saw a man standing in the middle of the road.

Rehaan got off, "Iqbal? Tu yahan kya kar raha hai?"

"Rehaan.....mere saath wapas chal.....aaj teri wajah se kitna nuksaan huya hai, jaanta hai?" Iqbal yelled at Rehaan

"Cut it out Iqbal! Meri bhi koi life hai....you just drag me like a slave everywhere!" Rehaan raised his voice too.

"Rehaan.....remember you are nothing without me! Agar main nahin hoon, toh tu kuch nahin hai! Now let's go...dadi ne kuch khaana nahin khaaya hai...tera intezaar kar rahi hain," Iqbal forced Rehaan back into the car and sat on the driver's seat himself. He sped away with Rehaan through the desolate streets of Mumbai. Rehaan could tolerate anything but any discomfort to his dadi was unbearable. He did not argue any further; he just obeyed Iqbal as he had been doing for so many years.
