The story of four friends:
~REUNION~
A invite reaches the houses of people who once died, sry…. Sry…. lived for each other! Who once made promises to stay in contact and meet atleast twice a year! Whose every dream were incomplete without the other three………………………..but things change!! Nothing is permanent neither ur happiness nor ur pain…………….
A very luxourious house that looked perfect! Located in the heart of mumbai city , a very handsome mature man, gets a card ‘the invite’ ,as soon as he saw that his heart stirred up, MEMORIES occupied his head, the good old days where nothing else mattered,……………… the pranks, ……………the last minute preps,……………the laughter,……….. those stupid talks about each other most……… importantly his ‘FRIENDS’, all the thoughts made him weak, happiness hit his heart along with ‘guilt’
Boy’s pov,
We were best friends, me ,ragini ,sanskar and swara. No we were each other’s support system, we four were like the spirits that never left each other alone, whatever we did, we did it together. Everyone had equal share. Teased each other like hell in every possible way! (smiles) , shed fake tears to gain each other’s attention, moreover believed in each other……….. in each other’s dreams!! Made promises…..(gasps) but never kept them…..( controlling tears)…….
Kho gaya, gum ho gaya
Waqt se churaya tha jo
Apna banaya tha..
Ho tera, woh mera
Saath nibhaaya tha jo
Apna banaya tha..
Chadariya jheeni re jheeni
Chadariya jheeni re jheeni
Aankhein bheeni ye bheeni ye bheeni
Yaadein jheeni re jheeni re jheeni

Today I understand that a single card can make a guy cry!!!!
I want to meet them! For once!!
(the boy is laksh)
~shift to another place~
Swara’s pov
I want to meet them! For once!! Hit them, slap them! And ask why we left each other! Yes, I too was busy that I forgot them!! (catches her head and sits down) how can i?, how can u swara? (rests her head on the couch and gets into thinking)
Aisa bhi kya milna, saath hoke tanha
Aisi kyun sazaa humne hai paayi, Ranjhana ve
Phir se mujhe jeena, tujhpe hai marna
Phir se dil ne di hai ye duhaai, Saajnaa ve
Laqeeron pe likh di kyun judaai..
(plays in bg)
~shift to another place~
Ragini’s pov
Lifts her head from the couch, I am not going to leave these idiots! , I am going to the reunion and will make every one kneel down infront of me and ask them to say sorry…..ok fine I too will kneel down……………………I am coming guys to meet u all!!
Gair sa hua khud se bhi, na koi mera
Dard se karle chal yaari, dil ye keh raha
Kholun jo baahein, bas gham ye simat rahe hain
Aankhon ke aage lamhe ye kyun ghat rahe hain
Jaane kaise koi sehta Judaaiyaan.
(SONG PLAYS IN BG)
~shift to another place~
Sanskar’s pov
I am coming guys to meet u all! We had no contacts but I hope all of us were living in each other’s heart.
Sanlakswaragini ( at the same time) : I really hope so!!
23rd september,2016,
St.Xavier’s school, Shimla.
The school was lavishly decorated, filled with happiness, hopes, faiths, promises, MEMORIES.
Everyone were looking happy, smiling ear to ear, if you have not seen genuine happiness, u can see it here!
Our laksh entered the venue first, his eyes were searching the three important people of his life! Just then he felt a hard punch on his cheek, he flinched and turned to see who it was
Laksh: sanskar?
Sanskar: saale!!! Where were u?
Laksh hits him back
Sanskar: oouch!!!………….what was that?
Laksh: and where were u?
A voice-Exactly!!!! Where were u both?
Both turn back
Sanlak: ragini!!!!!
Ragini: I hate saying this ………………….but I missed u all!!
Laksh: ragini? R u alright ……I mean u never give way to emotions……..
Sanskar: ya u were a rude, arrogant girl and now…..
Ragini:
Sanlak: both fear of her reaction
But to their surprise she hugs them: I don’t know!!! Maybe the ice has finally melted
A voice- aww!!! I am here too!!! (pouts)
Sanraglak: swara!!!
All four hug each other
Sanskar: omg!!! Swara u r pregnant?
Swara: nods like a kid!
Ragini: (excited) wow we will have a little swara?
Laksh: u urself r a kid !!!
Swara hits his shoulder : I am 26!! Ok
Laksh: o ya how can I forget
All four laugh!!!!
All four meet their teachers, classmates, visited their classrooms to relive their good memories once again
They all settle down in silence,
Ragini: so?
Sanskar: so…..
Laksh comes infront : I am laksh, an IT professional, living in Mumbai.
The other three laugh,
Sanskar: I own a coffee shop!!!
Swaraglak: what?
Sanskar: what?
Swara: you were a topper, I thought you would be a doctor by now!!
Raglak: yes!! (equally shocked)
Sanskar: I too thought the same but she changed me, my thoughts……..
Just then ragini notices a ring in his finger
Ragini: (happy)u r engaged ?
Sanskar: yes!!!
Laksh: I am so happy for u ( hugs him)
Swara: and I am a happy house wife!!
This was another shock for them because swara was not that type of a girl who would sit in the house and take care of a family
Sanraglak: (shout on top of their voice) what!!!!!!!!
Swara: smiles) I too am shocked but I like it, karan supports me and never makes me feel inferior, he changed me
Sanraglak: smile too!
Laksh: and what do u do ms.ragini?
Ragini: I work for an NGO!!!
Sanlak: smile) the thing that melted the stone?
Ragini nods
no one took a single selfie instead they talked to each other to their hearts content.
All four talked and talked and talked and time flew like rocket ,all came out and walked for a while on the empty roads in the freezing cold, that’s when the madness started 😉
Sanskar: how about a duet?
Laksh: why not?
They both started dancing like a romantic couple ,ragini made swara sit down and she joined them , all three were dancing like mad and swara enjoyed the moment…………………….
THE END.
They are happy and will continue to be!!!! And if not the each will make the other happy!!! They again made promises but this time they kept it till eternity!!!! True friendship neither dies nor decreases with time, it lives in hearts of the others forever and ever.
Dedicated to all TRUE FRIENDS and my readers.
With friendship,
From asheeyana.
