Weeks passed and full city indulge in festive look everywhere... Navratri was a time when everyone immerse themselves in ecstasy of colorful celebration.... preparation for Navratri festival in college also begins, filled with lots of excitement and enthusiasm..... girls were chatting in the room...

Swati excitedly, "yaar maja aayega, poori shaam dance masti, voh bhi bina rok tok ke... mein toh aaj se hi dandiya ki practice bhi shuru kar dungi.. tujhe yaad hai Naina kaise hum..." she bit her tongue realize her folly.. Naina looked at her, "Swati itni tension lene ki jarurat nahin hai... ab jo waqt humne itna achchha gujara hai usse yaad karna toh bantaa hai na.. isme dukhi hone ki kya baat hai"... Swati hugged her tightly and mouthed, "Sorry yaar"... Naina wiped out her tears, "mein khush hun ki mein nahin toh kya tum log toh kam se kam dandiya enjoy karoge.. aur please ab koi tension mat lo aur plan karo ki kaun kya kya pehnega"

Priya, "par Naina tu aayegi na party mein... kahin holi ki tarah mana toh nahin karegi" Naina smiled back, "aaungi kyun nahin.. apne friends ke saath dance nahin toh kya enjoy toh kar hi sakti hun na... vaise bhi nahin aayi toh Sameer ko bhaut bura lagega, aur mein usse dukhi nahin dekh sakti"..

At home, girls informed Bela about the upcoming event in college for Dandiya night, which was over-heard by none other than Taiji... "O Bai, yeh bahut jyaada ho raha hai, ab ladkiyaan aadhi raat tak ghar ke baahar ghumengi, naachengi yeh nahin chalega.. bahut hai toh Preeti chali jaaye, vaise bhi Naina ka kya kaam is naach gaane mein" she sits on swing adjusting her pallu...

Bela, "yeh kya baat hui Bhabhiji, dance nahin karegi toh kya, sabke saath enjoy toh kar hi sakti hai na"..

Anand came in between, "arey Bela voh hamare office mein iss baar Navratri ka jashan manaya ja raha hai toh unhone sabko pariwaar ke saath hi bulaya hai... toh mein apne saath Naina Preeti ko bhi lekar jaunga.. chaaho toh tum bhi chal padna"...

Taiji, "haan yeh sahi rahega, aap apane saath hi le jaaiye, yeh college ki party sharty mein jaana theek nahin hai itni raat ko" she keeps murmuring and left the house left both Anand and Bela in laughter...

Preeti came running and hug Anand, "Papa aap toh great ho... Taiji ko kaise buddhu banaya aapne"... Anand caressed on her head, "apne bachchon ki Khushi ke liye mein kuchh bhi kar sakta hun... vaise bhi mujhe aur bela ko kal ek dost ke ghar maata ki chowki mein jaana hai toh der se hi aayenge, tab tak tum log bhi waapas aa jaaoge" they had family hug and enjoyed discussing on the dresses to be worn tomorrow... all dressed up for the function...

In evening Anand and Bela drop the girls at college and left assuring to reach home early... Chachaji came to Naina, "beta mujhe pata hai Sameer hoga tumhare saath par phir bhi apne dhyan rakhna..."

Boys were as usual waiting for the girls at parking area..

Naina was dressed up in a black and maroon lehenga with a blouse of same color. The lehenga enhanced her fair complexion and she was looking resplendent. She wore necklace with jhumkas, and bangle which was gifted by Sameer in Mount abu and left her hair open... her simple natural beauty is enough for Sameer to lose his control... luckily he had got a hold of his heart and emotions that Naina had unknowingly evoked especially after the rainy day adventure....

Its first time when she is seeing him in Indian wear. He was indeed looking handsome in marron kurta somehow matching with her lehenga and ends up with lots of teasing from the gang, "yaar tum log kya har baar matching plan karte ho.... hamesha same color mein sabse best couple lagte ho"... they both looked at each other and lost in their own dreamland.. all giggles and left them alone, "yeh toh gaye apne sapno ki duniya mein... chalo hum log toh chale..."

Sameer leaned on her slightly and whispers, "ek toh kayamat lag rahi ho aur uppar se itne pyaar se dekhogi toh jaan hi nikal jayegi" she instantly put her finger on his lips, showing anger, "kya Sameer, kuchh bhi bolte ho... khabardaar jo aaj ke baad aisi baat boli... mein.. mein baat nahin karungi tumse"... he smiled back, "tumhari toh chuppi bhi katil hai jaan... saara kaam toh yeh do jheel si aankhen hi kar deti hai, phir bolne ki toh koi jarurat hi nahin bachti... isi baat par ek sher arz kiya hai....

Tujhe palko pe bithane ko jee chahta hai, Teri baho se lipatne ko jee chahta hai,

Khubsurti ki intehaa hain tu, Tuje zindagi me basaane ko jee chahta hai

She laughed, "lagta hai aaj romance ke devta ki pooja karke aaye ho...aate hi shuru ho gaye..."he grinned, "abhi kahaan.. yeh toh bas shuruaat hai... aage aage dekhiye madam... aaj apake hosh na udaa diye toh kehna.. yeh din tum kabhi nahin bhulogi.. yeh mera waada hai".... they both smiled and move to ground to meet their gang.

After some formal announcement from Principal and welcome to Chief guest, boys & girls starts playing Dandiya with their partners, whereas Samaina was sitting and watching them happily...

Naina, "Sameer tum bhi jaao na please... mujhe tumhein dandiya khelte huye dekhna hai"

Sameer : haan khelna toh mujhe bhi hai par meri partner manegi nahin... tum chalo na please... jaise humne Mount abu mein kiya tha dance...

Naina feels shy remembering their closeness, her cheeks turned red, he grinned seeing his effect on her.. he teased her more "Naina tum aise sharmaogi toh mein tumhe abhi god mein uthakar dance ke liye le jaaunga"... she jerked with a thought, "nahin nahin Sameer, please aise mat karna... dekho voh vahaan hum akele the, yahaan poora college hai... theek nahin lagta"... he laughed seeing her so nervous, "arey baba daro mat".. he holds her hand and looked into her eyes, "Naina voh hamara moment tha... sabse special.. aur hamara hi rahega..... vaise toh mein kisi se nahin darta par chinta mat karo yahaan mein tumhein dance ke liye force karunga bhi nahin... mere liye tum aur tumhara comfort sabse pehle hai"...

Gang joined back after fully exhausted and saw them lost in each other eyes, "yaar inhein toh kahin bhi chhod do bas aapas mein hi khoye rehte hai" they all had fun and tease them both...

Sameer, "okay... so now it's time for surprise"... Rohan chuckled turned to girls, "aur haan yeh surprise hum sab ki taraf se tum logon ke liye hai... so let's go"...

Naina, "par jaana kahaan hai... function toh abhi khatm nahin hua"... Sameer smiled, "asli function kahin aur hai... chalo"....

They all left the college in their car and bikes... Mudit on bikes with their partners and Sameer Rohan in car with Naina and Preeti... They all reached aashram where Naina brings him few months back..

Naina, "Sameer yeh toh hum aashram aaye hai... par yahaan itna andhera kyun hai"... Sameer shockingly, "haan .. mujhe bhi samajh nahin aa raha.. chalo chal ke dekhte hai"... he gets down from car and they all reached till gate... the moment they open the gate whole aashram, its surrounding and garden area lit with so many colorful lights, shocking Naina & other girls......

He holds her from shoulder and smiled back.. "andar toh chalo... abhi toh shuruaat hai"...

They all headed inside and whole garden was fully decorated with lights and balloons for kids... all the kids run and hugged them all.. then only, loud dandiya music starts and all gang went to dance with kids and few young ladies who were either widow or left by their families, abandon by society to enjoy such festivals..... few old ladies also join them in fun dance... enjoying fully...

Meghna Didi came to meet them, "Thanks Sameer, yeh sab organize karne ke liye... sach aaj yeh sab bachche aur auraten itni khush hai sirf tumhari wajah se... thank you so much"... she left to organize the food stall leaving them alone...

Naina happily smiled with teary eyes, "Sameer, yeh sab tumne... matlab kab, kaise... aur kyun.."

Sameer hold her hand and took her to a bench lying in a corner and make her sit comfortably, "Naina, jab tum sirf meri Khushi ke liye dandiya dance mein aa sakti ho, toh kya mein tumhari Khushi ke liye yeh sab plan nahin kar sakta..... vaise bhi yeh ek chhota sa surprise gift hai tumhare liye meri taraf se"

He looked at the kids enjoying with gang and dancing whole heartily, "vaise bhi jab us din hum yahaan aaye the toh maine tumse kaha tha na ki mein in bachchon ke liye kuchh karna chahta hun, toh bas".. his eyes pooled up with tears, "Naina maine bhi apna bachpan akele kaata hai... papa ko toh bhagwan ne apne paaas bula liya tha jab mein bohot chhota tha, unki toh yaadein bhi dhundhali pad gayi hai, aur maa.. unke hote huye bhi hamesha unke pyaar se dur raha... haan Nanu the mere paas, par voh bhi kuchh pal ki Khushi hi de paate the mujhe... jab mein hostel mein apne dosto ke mata pita ko dekhta tha toh mera bhi man karta tha ki koi mujhse bhi hostel mein milne aaye, mere liye apne haath se bana kar khaana laaye, jaise mere doston ki mummy laati thi kabhi laddoo, kabhi matthiyaan... par shayad meri kismat mein yeh sab nahin tha... maa ke hote huye bhi kabhi unka pyaar mehsoos nahin kar paya, aur ab koi ummid bhi nahin karna chahta... jaisa hai mein us mein hi khush hun, Nanu, Rohan aur mere dosto ne merei zindagi ki har kami poori kar di... aur phir tum mili, usake baad toh jaise kuchh aur paane ki khwahish hi khatm ho gayi" he took her hand and kissed on her palms, "tum meri kismat ban kar aayi ho Naina... jabse tum mili ho, bin maange mujhe sab kuchh mil gaya hai.. jis pyaar ki kabhi ummid hi nahin ki thi voh pyaar, ek ghar ka ehsaas, sab kuchh.."... he looked at her, "us din jab in bachchon ko dekha toh ek anjana sa rishta jud gaya, laga inmein aur mujh mein jyaada farq nahin hai, isiliye samajh paya ki inhein sir paise nahin pyaar ki kitni jarurat hai.... laga inke liye kuchh karna chaahiye, inhein bhi toh ussi pyaar ki kami hai jiski mujhe thi bachpan mein... bas phir maine Nanu se baat ki... Maheshwari Industries bahut saare charitable organizations ko support karti hai, donation deti hai, par mein khud kuchh karna chahta tha toh company mein jo mere shares hai, unke profit ka ek hissa ab har mahine yahaan is ashram ko donate hoga"...

Naina looked at him proudly, "Sameer mein jitna tumhare paas aati hun, tumhein jaanane lagi hun, utna hi mujhe tum par garv hone lagta hai... mera pyaar din ba din aur badtaa ja raha hai... tumne na sirf in bachchon ko paise se madad ki balki aaj yahaan yeh dandiya dance rakh kar inke chehre par jo khushi hai, voh anmol hai"..

Sameer hold her face in his palms, "asli Khushi toh kisi aur ke chehre par dekhni thi mujhe..... toh bas socha dandiya hi toh enjoy karna hai toh kyun na yahaan kiya jaaye..... aur yahaan aake tumhein jo Khushi milti hai, voh toh mere liye kisi bhi khajaane se badi hai"..

Whole gang enjoyed rest of the evening with kids while dancing, playing games, distribute gifts for upcoming Diwali and fun filled dinner ....... in turn gets so many blessings from all.....

Sameer gifted a big box of chocolates of so many different varieties to her, "yeh sirf tumhare liye..... tumhein chocolates pasand hai na, jab bachchon ke liye gift lene gaya toh ek shop par yeh imported chocolates dekhi toh bas tumhare liye le aaya..." she unwrapped one piece and they both feed each other from same, "itni saari chocolates... pakka phool kar kuppa ho jaaungi ek din.." he said huskily, "koi fiqr nahin.. gale lagane mein aur maja aayega.." he winked to make her blush more...

Later they drop the girls at home safely and went back to their homes....
