"Anika aunty is coming to Mumbai!"

"Could you speak a bit louder please, everyone didnt hear you yet."

"Oops...sorry Meera...but this is a big problem." Alia lowered  her voice.

"I know, lbute we cant do anything. We just have to deal with it. Saahil Mama will tell Ma that we have to stay someplace else and we just have to hide that we are living in Oberoi Mansion."

"On the bright side, Ma and Papa are coming in a few days so they can keep Anika aunty busy!"

"Meera Didi!" Ishaan came into the room at that moment.

"Yeah Ishaan?"

"Meera Didi, Alia Didi you two are here? Sona bhabhi was looking for you. Her and Jai Bhaiyya's engagemnet day has been decided."

"Really? When is it?" Meera asked.

"Tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? Thats fast." Alia asked.

"Yeah thats what Bua is saying too, she is worried about how everything will get done." Ishaan replied, "Anyways lets go down now, Sona bhabhi is calling."

"Ok lets go..." Meera and Alia then followed Ishaan downstairs where everyone was sitting.

"There you guys are!" Sona exclaimed as she saw them, "You know, our engagement day has been decided!"

"We know....Ishaan just told us. Congrats!" Alia said hugging Sona.

"Congrats guys!" Meera hugged Sona and then Jai too.

"Ok...tomorrow is the engagement and we have lots to do! First, we are all going shopping!" Bhavya said.

"You guys come too." Sona looked to Meera & Alia.

"Okay....this will be fun. I love shopping!" Alia squealed. Meera turned and saw Dev smiling at Alia.

"Ahem...still think Dev doesnt like you?" Meera whispered into Alia's ears and motioned in Dev's direction.

"Shut up Meera." Alia whispered back blushing.

"Bade bhaiyya you are coming too." Gauri told Shivaay.

"Gauri, I have lots of work-"

"Bhaiyya please..." Priyanka begged.

"Please bade bhaiyya/ shivaay bhaiyya." Gauri & Bhavya said together.

"Shivaay...now all three of your sisters are saying please, are you still going to refuse?" Om asked looking at Shivaay.

"Okay, okay, I'll come......happy?." Shivaay sighed. Everyone then went to a nearby mall to shop for the engagement.

When they got to the mall, everyone parked their cars and walked accross the street to the mall entrance.

"Oh no, I forgot my phone in the car. You guys carry on, I'll just come." Shivaay said then turned back and started crossing the road again to get to the car. Everyone else entered the mall when Meera turned back for a second and saw a silver car with tinted windows zoom straight towards Shivaay....and it didnt look like it was going to stop.

"Papa..." Meera whispered to herself terrified.In a split of a second, Meera ran and pushed Shivaay out of the way falling to the other side of the road with him.

"Aah." Meera tried to muffle her scream as she hit the ground with Shivaay.

"Are you okay P- SSO!" Meera sat up and asked Shivaay.

"Who the hell was that! He didnt even stop, idiot!" Shivaay looked in the direction the car had went.

"I dont know, the windows were tinted....but you are fine right? You didnt get hurt?" Meera asked concerned.

"Im fine...are you ok?" Shivaay turned. Meera quickly covered her forehead which was bleeding with her hair and hid her injured arm behind her because she didnt want to worry Shivaay.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"You sure?"

"Haan, Im fine..." Meera got up and figured she should go home since she wouldnt be able to hide her injuries the whole time. "SSO, I just remembered I have lots of work to do....I need to go."

"What about your shopping?"

"Thats okay, Im not a big fan of shopping anyways. Ill buy something online or Alia will buy for me. You enjoy with everyone, Ill see you later."

"Okay....are you sure?"

"Yeah.." Meera finally convinced Shivaay and went back to Oberoi Mansion alone. As she was entering she accidentally bumped into Kabir.

"Hey watch whe-" Kabir stopped when he saw Meera who was holding her arm in pain, "Shit...your bleeding! How did this happen?"

"Its nothing...Im fine." Meera tried to go to her room only to be stopped by Kabir.

"This doesnt look like 'nothing' from any angle." holding her by her shoulders, Kabir steered her to the closest Couch and made her sit down, "Sit."

"Bring the first aid box pls." Kabir asked one of the servants. Once the first aid box was brought, Kabir opened it and took out a cotton and the medicine bottle.

"I'll do it." Meera grabbed the bottle and cotton from Kabir, pouring a bit of medicine on the cotton she tried to reach her forehead but hissed in pain as the injury on her arm made it hard for her. Taking a deep breath, Meera tried again to place the cotton on her forehead but she still coudn't.

"Done?" Kabir finally took the cotton back from Meera, "Sometimes asking for help wont decrease your indepence....got it, Miss Pagal (crazy)?"

"Dont call me that!" Meera glared at Kabir. Smirking, Kabir took the cotton and started to bring it near Meera's head, knowing that the medicine will sting Meera closed her eyes but instead she felt a cool wind on her forhead. Slowly She opened her eyes and saw Kabir was blowing on her injury while gently wiping the blood with the cotton.

(NOTE: Ek Duje Ke Vaaste from movie Dil Toh Pagal Hai is going to be Kabir & Meera's background song cause...you know every main couple needs one. Also this was one of the very first movies I watched and loved as a child so it has a special place in my heart.)

*********************************

Kitne hi door door ho
(No matter how far..)
Unn donon ke raaste
(Their paths are)
Mil jaate hain jo bane
(They meet who are)
Ek duje ke vaaste
(Made for each other)
Ek duje ke vaaste

Meera admires how gentle and soft Kabir is being while applying the medicine and is also a bit confused.

Jaise dil hai dhadkan hai
(Like there is a heart there is heartbeat)
Ek duje ke vaaste
(Made for each other)
Jaise aankh hai darpan hai
(Like eyes and mirrors)
Ek duje ke vaaste
(Made for each other)
Jaise barkha saawan hai
(Like rain and monsoon)
Ek duje ke vaaste
(Made for each other)
Ek sajni ek saajan hai
(Like there is a lover and her beloved)

Kabir looks down for a second and catches Meera looking at him.

Ek duje ke vaaste (Repeat 2 times)
(Made for each other)
Aa.. (aa) aa.. (aa)..

Us rab ne jab dil diye
(When god gave us a heart)
Dil ke do tukde kiye
(He broke it in two pieces)
Dono pe ek naam leikha
(He wrote a name on each piece)
Ek Radha ek Shyam likha
(One of Radha, one of Shyam)
Ab ye dil dhadakte hain
(Now these hearts beat)
Milte aur bichhadte hain
(They meet and separate)
Without looking away from Meera, Kabir takes a bandaid from the box and gently places it on her forehead.

Ek duje ke vaaste (Repeat 4 times)
(Made for each other)
His hand lingered near her face for a minute longer before he cleared his throat and moved away picking up an ointment and started applying it to her arm.

"Ok now tell me...how did you get hurt?"

"Actually... SSO was about to get in an accident. There was a car driving very fast infront of the mall and they didnt look like they would stop so just while saving him, I got a bit hurt." Meera replied.

"What? Is he okay?"

"Yeah he is fine."

"Why did you come home alone?" Kabir asked curiously.

"Everyone else was already inside the mall only SSO was there at the time and....he doesnt know I got hurt. I didnt want to worry him."

"So....you got hurt saving Shivaay uncle and you didnt even say that you got hurt?" Kabir stared at Meera in awe.

Aa..aa...aa..

Hum donon ek jaan hain
(We both are a single soul)
Do dil ek armaan hain
(Two hearts, one desire)
Lekin ab is mod kar
(But now at this turn)
Dekhein daaman chhod kar
(Let us try to part ways)
Waqt ka hai ye faisla
(This is the decision of time)
Hum tum ho jaayein juda
(That we both need to separate)
Maangein khushiyon ki dua
(Let's pray for happiness)
Ek duje ke vaaste
(Made for each other)
Maangein khushiyon ki dua
Ek duje ke vaaste
Ek duje ke vaaste
Ek duje ke vaaste

Aa..aa..aa..aa...

Ek duje ke vaaste
Ek duje ke vaaste

"I knew it..." Meera and Kabir got up and saw Shivaay standing behind them, "I knew it, you got hurt right? Why didnt you say something?"

"SSO? What are you doing here?" Meera asked.

"I came back....because I had a feeling that you were lying." Shivaay walked to Meera and softly touched the bandaid on her head, "You got so hurt, you should have told me, I would have taken you to the doctor."

"Nahi nahi...thats not needed. Its not that bad, and I applied medecine."

"Really?" Kabir raised his eyebrows, "YOU did?"

"Okay fine, if you wont go to the doctor then go to your room and rest." Shivaay said.

"But...the engagement tomorrow, there must be so much work to do."

"I dont want to hear anything! I am taking you to your room now, lets go." Shivaay strictly scolded Meera and took her to her room.

"I'm really fine P..... SSO." Meera said as Shivaay made her sit on her bed.

"You are fine right?" Shivaay asked, "Good, then riest and become even more fine by tomorrow and then enjoy at the engagement."

Meera smiled at Shivaay's concern as he tucked her into bed and then left to let her rest.
