Chapter 11

Nisha point of view

As usual, wh din bi bahut busy tha aur mere boss ne mujhe apne cabin m bulaya. After knocking the door and getting his response, I entered into his cabin. I said with polietly, "yes sir" He looked at me  and asked causally, "Nisha... tumne apne resume me likha tha ki tum painting karti ho..... Kewal impression k liye tha ya kuch janti bi ho. I gulped and said with trying smile, "sir, Jayda th nahi...... Par as a hobby.... Thoda bhaut...." Unhone muskurate hue kaha, "good..... Ab jab hamri company painting exhibition kar rahi h th kuch creativity dikho bhai.... Pata th chale ki hamri company mei talented employees bi h jh work ke alwa aur creativity mei active hai."Maine kuch sochte hue bola, "sir, lekin mai th kewal dusri painting ko hi dekhkar banati hu... Aur exhibition mei th new ideas chahiye.... Pata nahi mai kar bi paugi ya nahi.... It's just hobby.... Kabhi socha nahi hai." Wh hath hawa mei hilate hue bola, "mujshe kuch nahi sunana... Mujshe kam se kam tumhari two paintings chahiye. It's my order." Mai unko mana nahi kar sakti thi kyuki starting se woh mere ko kafi support karte the. Maine na chahte hue bi bola, "ok... Sir... I will try to my best."Wh haste hue bole, "that's a spirit jh mujshe tumhare andhar chahiye... I am excited to see your painting." Maine muskurane ki kosis ki aur socha ki kyu maine apne resume mei show kiya?.... Shayad pagal ho gayi thi.Mera pura din yahi sochte hue bita ki kya paint karu? Maine group mei Ritika ka message dekha, "yaar kahi ghumne chale?" Kavita, "wow... Kafi dino se nahi gaye. Chalte hai." Vedika, "good idea... I am also free.... Let's go." Mujshe bi new ideas ki jarurt thi aur agar tension mei rahi th kuch nahi hoga isliye fresh mind se sochne ki jarurat thi. Maine message kiya, "ok let's go... Kaha chalna hai?" Kuch der bad Ritika ka reply aya, "club... Mere pass pass hai sab chalte hai...  Raman ko bi le lege apne sath." Mai samjh gayi ki woh kya soch rahi hai isliye maine message kiya, "Vedika... Ved ko bi bol do wh bi chalega." Vedika, "di, bhai nahi manege. Unko aisi jagaho mei interest nahi hai." Ritika, "th kaha jane me interest hai wahi chalte hai? With wink smiley.Vedika, "exhibition" with wink smiley. Kavita, "waha th bore ho jayege... Tum log hi jao.Maine kuch der socha aur message kiya, "Vedika... Usko convince karo ki mujshe thanks bolna hai montu ki help karne ke liye.... May be woh convince ho jaye." Uska ek dum message aya, "di acha idea hai.... Mai convince kar lugi.... Unki hi car mei chalege....." Ritika, "let's go party." Kavita, "yey... Mai Raman se puchti hu." Mai, "fine.... Evening mei milte hai sab."

Mai working hours ke bad jaldi hi ghar pauch gayi. Kyunki Vedika ka message aya tha ki ved chalne ko ready ho gya hai. Uski car se chalege. Ghar pauchi th kavita mera hi wait kar rahi thi. Maine jeans and strip top choose kiya jabki kavita ne top aur skirt choose kiya. Vedika floral dress pehan rahi thi. Ritika ke bare mei pata  nahi tha lekin mai janti thi woh kuch fitting ka hi pehnegi ved ki impress karne ke liye. Kavita aur maine halke makeup ke sath nude glossy lipstick use kari. hum dono ne ek dusre ko compliment diya udhar Raman kai bar humko bulane ke liye as gaya tha. Jab hum hall mei gaye th woh hamara wait kar raha tha. Hamari taraf bina dekhe hi bola, "tum ladkiya bi na bahut time lagete ho." Mai aur kavita ek dusre ki taraf dekhar hase aur maine usko Dante hue bola, "Raman, tumhari behene ready hokar th ayi hai.... Kuch th compliment do. Kaise lag rahe hai?" Wh bola, "thik lag rahe ho. Ab chalo sab hamara wait kar rahe hai." Kavita uso tease karte hue bola, "di, ab kaha yeh apni behno ki taraf dekhega. Isko gf jh mil gayi hai." Woh sharmate hue bola, "tum dono bi na." Apne uske gale me hath dala, "sahi bol rahi hai yeh. Wese bi uska bhai bi sath ja raha hai thoda sambhal kar." Kavita ne dusri taraf se hath dala aur boli, "is bar di nahi bacheyegi tere ko." Aur hum bua ji bol kar bahar aa gaye. Vedika ke ghar ke bahar hi Ritika, Vedika aur ved car ke pass hamara wait kar rahe the. Ritika mere ko dekh kar boli, "lo aa gayi late Latif." Mai uske gale me hath dala aur boli, "ha th kya late hone ka haq tera hi hai?" Wh hasti hui boli, "ha aur nahi th." Raman aur Vedika ek dusre ko dekh kar Sharma rahe the. Agar ved sath nahi hota th mai citi marti par ved ko dekh kar idea drop kar diya. Ved jabki apne mobile mei laga hua tha. Vedika boli, "bhaiya, let's go."  ved ne ha mei sar hilaya aur mobile pocket mei rakh liya aur driving seat par baith gaya  Ritika and I rolled our eyes and giggled. Vedika front seat par baith gayi. Mai aur Ritika ne piche baithne ka decided kiya. Jabki kavita aur Raman middle mei baithe the.Ritika ne black fitting ki short dress pehen rakhi thi. Maine uske ears me whisper kiya, "tu th hot lag rahi hai." Woh eyes roll karte hue boli, "kya yaar jiske liye ready hui ho usne th dekha hi nahi." I haste hue boli, "koi nahi... Abki puri raat baki hai." Hum dono hasne lage th sab humko dekhne lage. Both of us shrugged our shoulders.

Pass hone ki wajah se club mei entry mei koi problem nahi hai. Ander music play ho raha tha. Sab dance kar rahe the. Hum ek table par baith gaye aur apni apni drinks order ki. Kavita aur Vedika ne light drink order ki par mera aur Ritika ka light se kuch nahi hone wala tha isliye humne strong order ki. Raman ne mere kan mei bola, "di.. please over mat karna warna mummy ko sambhalna muskil ho jayega." Mai haste hue boli, "don't worry. Just chill."After some drinks, we went to dance floor. Ved mana kar raha tha lekin Vedika usko lekar aa gayi ki hamko rude lagega.

Hum enjoy kar rahe the aur dance kar rahe the. thodi der bad, mai Ritika se boli, "thodi der mei ati hu."Usne pucha, "mai bi chalu kya?" Mai ved ki taraf dekh kar boli, "nahi..m mai akele hi chali jaugi... tu enjoy kar."Wh hasne lagi aur mai washroom ji taraf chal di. Mujshe piche se kisi ne awaz lagayi, "nisha" Jab maine piche mud kar dekha th khud ko kosa ki kyu piche mudi lekin ab koi fayda nahi tha. Mera colleague Sunil tha. Woh haste hue bola, "Nisha what a pleasant surprise."Mai na chahte hue bi haste hue boli, "ha sunil...  What a surprise." Kyu ayi aaj. Wh bola, "kiske sath ayi ho?" Maine bina kuch soche samjhe bol diya, "bf aur friends hai mere." Mai janti thi ki woh kuch jayada hi friendly hai isliye jhooth bol diya.Wh thoda shock ho gya lekin fir pucha, "tumhara bf bi hai?" Mai haste hue boli, "ha... Kyu maine kya bataya nahi tumko.... Shayad bhul gayi hogi batana.... Kyu tumhari koi gf nahi hai?" Thodi der sochne ke bad bola, "single but ready to mingle.... Wese maine bd se milwaogi nahi?" Wh haste hue bola.Ab meri bari thi shock hone ki lekin apne aap ko sambhalte hue boli, "actually, wh thoda possissive hai. Uska mere ko kisi ladke se jayada bat karna pasand nahi. Pata nahi tumko dekhkar kya bolega?" Sunil haste hue bola, "come on yaar.... We are colleagues. Jab woh yaha hai th ek bar th milna banta hai." Mai kuch sochte hue boli, "hmm.... Washroom ki taraf ja rahi hu. Aakar milwati hu." Woh muskurate hue bola, "ok... I am waiting." Mai gahari sas li aur washroom ki taraf chal di. Mujhe pata tha ki yeh bina mile nahi manege lekin ab bf lau kaha se? Aur kahi hoti th Ritika se bol kar kaise na kaise bf arrange kar leti. Mai washroom gayi aur finished my work aur sochne lagi. Shayad girls hi idea de de. Islye maine group mei message, "girls, kuch problem ho gayi hai... In short, mere colleague yaha hai aur maine usse jhooth bol diya ki mai yaha bf aur friends k sath hu. Ab kya karu?" Thodi der bad kavita aur Vedika, "di apka bf bi hai?" Mai, "are jhooth bola hai.... Ab koi bf arrange karo. Raman mere se age mei chota lagta hai warna usko hi bol deti."Vedika, "mere bhaiya hai na." Maine socha wese th thik hai lekin Ritika naraz ho jayegi. Mai, "nahi... Ritika tu hi kuch bata." Ritika, "it's ok nisha. I trust you.... Only for once." Mai, "thanks yaar " Vedika, "par ek problem hai woh nahi manege." Mai, "koi nahi yeh mere par chor do. Bas tum sab table par aa jao."

Mai sunil se bachte hue table par gayi aur dekha sab table par drink pi rahe hai. Mai ek dum se ved ke samane uska hath pakadte hue boli, "mujshe tumse kuch bat karni hai." Wh meri taraf shock se dekhne laga. Maine uska hath upar khichte hue bola, "jaldi chalo... Time nahi hai." Par woh sun hi nahi raha tha th usko push karte hue ek taraf le gayi lekin jab sunil ko ate hue dekha th usko bahar ki taraf khicha. Thank god, ab wh mere sath asani se chal raha tha. Jab koi jagah nahi mili th washroom mei toliet ke ander push kiya kyuki waha sunil nahi aa sakta tha. Toliet ka door ander se lock kiya aur uski taraf dekha th woh gusse se bola, "Nisha, yeh kya batmeezi hai?" Mai innocent sa muh banati hui boli, "I am sorry for this par mere paas time nahi tha tumko bahar samjhane ka. Actually, mera colleague yaha hai aur maine usko bol diya ki mai bf aur friends ke sath hu. Ab wh mere bf se milna chahta hai. Please uske samane mere bf ki acting kar lo. I promise uske bad tumko pareshan nahi karungi aur tumko kuch bi kaam karwa hoga kar dugi." Wh mere ko ghur raha tha lekin kuch nahi bola th convince karne ke liye, "kya pata tumko bi jarurt pade kabhi th tumhari help kar dugi. Please for once." Wh kuch der sochne ke bad bola, "thik hai par last time aur tumko bi meri help karni hogi."I khush hote hue boli, "pakka." Woh mere ko dur hone ka ishara karte hue bola, "next time, dur se hi baat karna." Mujshe usse kaam lena th kuch nahi boli aur dono hath upar karte hue boli, "fine"

Jab hum dono table ki taraf ja rahe the th sunil piche se bola, "Nisha.. tumko hi dhudh raha tha." Mai ved ke ears se boli, "sorry...  But iske samne th show off karna padega." Islye uske hath me apna hath dalte hue uski taraf dekha jab usne kuch nahi kaha th mai muskurate hue piche mudi jaha sunil tha. Ved bi mere sath muda. Mai haste hue boli, "sunil... Hum bi tumko hi dhudh rahe the.... Meet my boyfriend ved." Wh ved ko dekhkar apni ankhe badi karte hue bola, "Mr Singhal....aap?" Maine ved ki taraf dekha wh bi usko shock se dekh raha tha islye maine pucha, "tum dono jante ho ek dusre ko?" Sunil bola, "yeh painting exhibition ke sponsor hai.... Tum nahi janti kya?" Maine ved ki taraf th usne ha mei apni neck hila di. Maine haste hue boli, "actually, hum apni professional aur personal life alag alag rakhte hai... Isliye.... Kyu Ved?" Ved seriously bola, "hmmm" Mai haste hue boli, "wow... It's a surprise ki mere bf ko tum jante ho, Sunil. Aur mujshe th pata hi nahi tha. Koi nahi kya tum hamare sath join karna chahte ho?" Sunil nervous hote hue bola, "it's ok. Next time, wese bi mai ja ho raha tha." Mai muskurate hue boli, "ok... Bye sunil....aur ved ki taraf dekhte hue boli, "ved, Let's go."Ved meri taraf dekhte hue bola, "tum jao nisha... Mujshe Mr Sunil se kuch bat karni hai." Mai uske ears me whisper kiya, "please isko sach mat batana." Usne haa mei neck hila di lekin mujshe us par yakin nahi tha phir bi un dono ko baat karne ke chor diya aur jate hue boli, "darling... Come fast.... I am waiting."Ved got shocked but didn't say anything.

Mai table par wapas aa gayi th girls meri taraf dekh kar boli, "kya hua?" Raman bi confusion nazar aa raha tha. Maine unko sab bat bata di aur boli rote hue muh bana kar boli, "pata nshi... Woh dono kya bat kar rahe hai?.... Kahi ved usko sab sach sach na bata de." Vedika boli, "it's ok di.... Bhaiya baat sambhal lege." I sighed, "I hope so." Ritika boli, "tumne apne colleague se jhooth kyu bola?" Mai topic change karte hue boli, "baad mei bataungi."

Kuch der baad ved bi aa gaya lekin woh shant tha. Mai usse puchna th chahti thi lekin kuch nahi bola.
