Abhi; No you didn’t got me baba I mean if she will have cabin infront of mine then if she will need any help I can help her easily na
Kabir: Look Mr I can’t take risk I am sure that if I gave her cabin in front of your cabin then you will not do any work be side admiring at her and if you requested one time more about this then I will forget about your offer

Kabir: Okay then submit her application form by tomorrow as Staff selection process is going to start from next week Monday.
Abhi: Okay sir now I am leaving
Kabir: while going please close the door
Abhi was about to leave when he came back and Kabir asked “Now what?” he smiled and in excitement kissed his cheek
Kabir: han han samajh gaya bohot khush hai tu ab ye dobara na karna warna sabko lagega Mr Kabir Mehta Mr Abhishek Mehta k sath kuchh jyada hi close hai phir teri normal life ki aisi taisi ho jayegi ab ja (ok okay now I know that you are extremely happy but don’t repeat this again otherwise everyone will think that Mr Kabir is so close to Mr Abhishek Mehta then your normal life will be no more normal understood now go)
Abhi while leaving: Love you baba
Kabir: now get out
Abhi: how rude
Kabir: yes I am now get lost
Abhi: but I still love you
He went saying this and Kabir shook his head thinking this boy will never change screen shifts to Abhi he was driving the car happily towards home imagining he will be with her whole day he think
Abhi thinks: Finally I got the way to keep you in front of me every time now I days I think I am going crazy upon you but no I am crazy about you from the day I accepted you but never gathered courage to tell you now also I am not able to tell you what I feel I think I must contact with some love guru now isn’t sound weird I need love guru for myself uff… I don’t need him I think if I will say then how will I say okay leave that now and let me be happy because baba accepted my proposal and now I will be with you full time we will go home from office together then we will come together too how interesting isn’t it. I know when I will tell you first you will say that who will take care of kids and all but I will not listen you this time you also deserve to live like others and after all you are my wife and my wife my love should gain respect on her own in everyone’s heart you know one thing what I felt when in the mall I heard that one of your mate saying like that about you I was feeling like kill him there itself how dare he said that but then I decided that no you should get what you deserve and you deserve this I wish like me no no not like more than me you should face promotions and believe me I will be the happiest person then no one can measure my happiness but in all this I don’t want to miss those cute moments which I use to spend with you like a normal person any ways whatever the result will be I have decided that you are going to be with me that’s it.
And thinking all this he reached home as he went in started shouting her name and as she came out listening noise without wasting a minute he steps towards her and lifted her up she got shocked for a while that what happened to him he put her down and said
Abhi: you know silly I am too much happy today you can’t even imagine what happened
Pragya who was still in shock with that response didn’t utter a word and Abhi went from there then she thought
Pragya: I think I need to consult psychiatrist now a days he is becoming impossible to guess what he is going to do sometimes he use talk like silly lovers sometimes he use to admire me so romantically and now this I think I must consult Yasho and Naira that something has happened to him for sure.
She called Yashika and narrated all the stuffs and Yashika was laughing hard
Pragya: Yasho don’t laugh na see I am in problem and you are laughing I am saying something has happened to your brother
Yashika: Offo Pragya nothing has happened he is getting mad I think something new he is feeling because when he use to feel something special he use to jump like this last time he kissed our cook you know why because the pudding he made was tasting so good so he just went and kissed him that’s nothing new for him he gets mad sometimes you just ignore it
Pragya: Are you sure
Yashika: of course yr now relax everything will be fine okay I will talk to him that not to scare you like this
Pragya: Okay fine talk to you later
Yashika hanged up the call then thought something and called Abhi and that time Naira also called as she narrated whole matter to her too now the trio were on conference call
Abhi: hi dii what’s up?
Naira: Mr what’s up what are you doing now-a-days
Abhi: Nothing just trying to complete the project given to me somehow
Yashika: We are not talking about your work
Abhi: Then?
Yashika: wait come on-line through Skype
All came on-line through Skype
Naira: yes now tell me what are you doing now a days
Abhi: I am doing nothing be side my work
Yashika: then how we got your complaint
Abhi: My complaint I am sure this Kaustu has done this but let me tell you I haven’t done anything
Naira: Don’t you dare blame my rock star for that understood otherwise you know what will happen with you and she haven’t complained
Abhi: then?
Yashika: we are asking about what are you doing now a days with Pragya she has complaint about you that you are behaving weird with her
Abhi shouted: What!
Hearing that Pragya came in hurriedly
Pragya: what happened why you shouted like that?
Abhi: no nothing wo.. wo.. it was a cockroach there I got scared that’s it
Pragya: are you sure
Abhi: Exactly damn sure
Pragya: but why I am feeling that you are hiding something
Abhi: no extremely no big no but why are you feeling that I am hiding something from you
Pragya: because till now you wasn’t afraid of cockroaches but suddenly you have started getting scared of them (folding her arms)
Abhi: wo… wo.. silly it came suddenly na that’s why I got scared by the sudden appearance of cockroach
Pragya : Oh I see sudden appearance now a days cockroaches are also have sudden and special appearance
Saying this went out of room and closed the door then thought “I am damn sure something is wrong with him but Yasho is not agreeing with me I think I have to consult psychiatrist for sure” just then Kaustuki came there asking
Kaustu: what happened mummy why papa shouted like that?
Pragya: because your father has gone mad
Kaustuki: what’s new in this I know it tell me something new
Pragya in little bit scolding manner: Kaustu… what you said just now
Kaustuki making an oops expression: Nothing just blabbered I didn’t said anything
Pragya: exactly If you said anything like that then see what I will do with you
Saying this she left for her work
Kaustuki: Uff today I escaped but I have to control my tongue otherwise I am dead
Pragya shouted: exactly
Kaustuki: Mummy knows everything no escaping just change yourself Kaustu
Again the screen shifts to Abhi
Yashika: what the hell need was to shout like that
Abhi: What can I do I got shocked that she complaint about this to you
Naira: of course she will do
Abhi: why?
Yashika: if her husband start to behave like a crazy boy in front of her suddenly then what will she do tell me
Abhi: but..
Naira: mai taine Thappad maar dena hai je tu ek word aur bola to (shh if you said one more word then I will slap you for sure)
Yashika: just listen to us don’t speak
Abhi: Okay
Naira: what you are doing now a days should happen daily now understand
Abhi: but why (realising what she said just now) wait what did you said just now?
Yashika: she said that what is happening now randomly should happened daily
Naira: yes and should end up that thing which you didn’t did yet
Abhi: You mean to say Proposal
Yashika: ladka samjhdaar ho raha hai (boy is becoming smart day by day)
Abhi: I was smart always
Naira: you wasn’t smart its Pragya’s company that you are turned into smart otherwise you was like an beggar

Abhi being shocked: What happened to you now?
Pragya: I know you will do something unexpected as in morning no no I can’t take risk just stay away
