thoughtful face. "garbar?! Aap kaunsi garbar ki baat kar rahe ho?!" machmach

machmach said. "wo apun ko... miscall se... LOVE HO GAYA HAIN..." raghu said the
word at last with a big sigh. "ohh aisi baat hain... tere ko ..." suddenly machmach
understood what he just said and his eyes widened in shock.. "KYA!! KYA KAHA

said in hwll confused and worried voice. On the other hand, ajji jusy clapped
and jumped on the bed like a little girl. It seemed like her age was suddenly
decreased in huge rate. "arey naii re machmach... mere ko sachmein lagta hain ki...
Woo.. apun uss yeri se pyar karte hain..." raghu said from other side. "abey

merry in his voice. "hmmm!!...to ab kya?" she asked. "ajji!!.." raghu paused
for a while. There was a slight confusion in his voice. "kya apun ko sachmein antara
se pyar ho gaya hain?! mere khopri mein to kuch naii ghus raha hain..." he said. "tere

chintuuu!!!!..." ajji stroke her head. "kabhi kabhi man karta hain ki tere au
machmach ka dimag kholke dekhoon ki andar kya hain..." ajji said. Machmach who
was seating at side caught his head with two hand in worried face. Seemed like,
he took ajji's joke seriously. "arey ajji... Batao na mere ko sach mein uss sey
pyar ho gaya hain kya?!!" he asked. "chintu, ek baat bata... kya kar sakta hain
tu antara ke liye?!... apni jaan de sakta hain?!!" she asked. there was a huge silent
there. after some moment he uttered, "naii ajjii!...". ajji became confused. "naii
de sakta apni jaan. Kyun ki apun ki jaan to wohich hain...wo miscall!! To apun
apni jaan kaise de... wo to all ready uske pass hain na..." he said with such an
intense voice that ajji clearly understand his condition. "abey yere..." Ajji smiled,
"tu to kaam se gaya re... wo filmon ka pyar to bas dikhaba hain... tere ko to sacha
pyar ho gaya hain re!!" she said. Raghu's face caught an wide grin and he
caressed his hairs madly. "antara ko bataya kya?!!" ajji asked. "naii ajji!!..."
suddenly his voice became a bit low. "kyun kya huya?!!" ajji's voice became a
slightly worried. "pata naiii ajji... sach kahun to... mere ko dar lag raha hain..."
he said. "kya baat hain... raghunath naik ko dar lag raha hain... ye toh breaking
news hain!!!" ajji laughed. "kya yaar ajji..." raghu huffed. "kyun dikkat kya

naii ajji aisi koi baat naii hain..." he said. "to fir kya hain?!! itna hichak
kyun raha hain... wo tere ko pasand karti hain... to fir tu ussey keheta kyun
nahin?!" ajji asked in confusion. "ajji problem ye hain ki antara mujhe pasand

koi feeling hain hi naii!! arey ajji uss
ko to yee bhi naii lagta ki apun kabhi uss se pyar kar sakta haain! To ab apun
usey bataye bhi to kaise?! Aap jaan ti ho yeri hain... agar gusse mein kuch ulta
sidha kar diya too?!" raghu asked in a worried voice. "arey mere gobar ki
factory chintu!!.." ajji said loudly from other side, "ek baat bata mere ko..
uske dil mein tere liye pyar mohabbat wala aheshas ayega bhi kaise?! Tune kabhi
bhi ussey jata ne ki koushis ki? Wo to chor hi de... ek din bata jisdin tune uske
sath jhagra nahi kiya?!" ajji asked. "ajji sochne de yaar... last month ko... nahi
ussey pahele..." raghu scratched his head. "tu apna sar khuchata rahein.. budha
ho jayega fir bhi tujhe yaad nahi ayega.. kyun ki aisa koi din tha hi nahi..."
ajji said. "ajji tere ko kaise pata ki main sar khucha raha hoon?! Tu mere ko
dekh sakti hain kya?!!" raghu's face made a big O. "iss yere ka main kya
karoon.." ajji again stroke her head. "wo sab batein chor... sun agar antara ko
ter pyar ka ehsaas dilana chahta hain to sab se pahele uss sey aise baat baat
par jhagra nahin kar ne ka... phool si nazuk larki hain, ussey kitna bura lagta
hoga jab tu ussey aise karwi batein karta hain.." ajji said. "arey ajji... aap ki
wo phool si najuk larki na meri koi bhi baat ek baar mein nahin maan manti... Iss
liye toh mera dimag sanak jata hain..." raghu said in irritation. "ye hi to teri
galti hain chintu!! Tere issi adat ke liye to uss tak teri dil ki baat nahin
pauch pata... Soch agar koi tujhse din raat jhagarta rahein, tujhe zabardasti
apni baat manwa ta rahein... to kyat u kabhi soch sakta hain ki wo tujhse pyar
karta hain?!" ajji said. Raghu scratched his head, "baat to tu sau taka sach
kahe rahi hain ajji... Ajji kya karein yaar... tu too jaan ti hain mere ko ye sab nahinn
atta... ajj tak kisi se sidhe mooh baat bhi nahi ki apun ne... aura b tu kahe raha
hain ki miscall ko pyar ka wo kya... Haan wo ahesaas jataoon... kaise karega ye
sab apun..." his confused voice made ajji smile more. Although he was one of the notorious
ruffian of Mumbai city who was acclaimed for breaking the bones of so many
people, his innocent heart always caused her to adore him. She knew when antara
could see that innocence inside that so called stone, she wouldn't afford to
fall for him too. "abey yere!! Tu pyar kar sakta hain to jata naii sakta?!!... ye
sab sikhna naii parta hain re, khud be khud aa jata hain... tu bas uss bachi ka
dhyan rakhna.. dekh na ussey kabhi kisi baat ki dukh na ho.. aur jis din ussey
samajh aa jayega na tujhe khud samajh aa jayega... abtak to main tere ko samjhati
rahi.. par agey jo karna hain na wo tujhe khud karna hain!! ye sab main nahin
sikha sakta!! Samjha?!!" ajji said. "thik hain ajji!! Apun rakhta hain.. bole
to good night!!" raghu said with a huge grin. "chal!!.." ajji said and the
connection was cut. "hey bappa tera lakh lakh sukar hain!! akhir yere ko akal
aa gaya..." ajji joined her hand and prayed to god. "ajji ye bhai uss yeri se
pyar... kaise ho gaya yaar?! Ye log to jhagr jhagar ke apna sar phor dengey!!" machmach
was still in trance. "abey gadhe,... tu phikar mat kar... bappa hain na... abhitak wohi khel khel rahe the agey bhi jo karna hain wohi karengey!!" ajji said
with a huge grin.
Antara was tossing all over the bed. She couldn't have sound sleep. So
many questions were hovering around her mind and she couldn't find the answer. It
was making her so restless. The thing was also roaming on her mind that if she
couldn't find the answer of those question then something really bad would
happen. The nuclear device!! Whenever she was reminding about that explorer,
her whole body was becoming numb in fear. She didn't know how many lives that bomb
could take. She was having head ache on those days due to mental pressure. Her eyes
were closed but sleep seemed far away from her. She tossed on the bed again
when that mouth organ tune came into her ears floating. Suddenly her mind became
calm. Each and every night he played that tune for her. She felt so relived again
and a smile spread on her face. What a calm, soul touching and soothing sound. But
there was something new in that tune. The intensity, which she never felt in
that tune! It seemed like that sound was touching and caressing all over her. Soothing
her!! antara cuddled on the pillow and her smile widened. "thx raghu!" she
whispered and slowly dozed off into sleep.
Precap: "kahin tum bimar to nahin par gaye!!" antara worriedly touched
his temple removing his bangs. Raghu just closed his eyes feeling her touch. His
heart was racing like mad.
thx all for the wishes🤗
