Farjaad came out from the washroom, Umeed entered in the room along with breakfast. She kept the tray on the side table and quickly made her way towards him, she held his hands and made him sit on the bed.

"Jao aur comb pass karo" Farjaad said in ordering tone.

"Ye order hai to bhool jaye" Umeed said annoyingly.

"Acha! Miss Umeed Pasha, please mujhe comb pass karden" Farjaad requested cutely.

Umeed smiled mischievously, she went to the dining table and took the comb. She again came closer to him, extended his hand and gestured him to took it from her hands.

"Nahi! Ab baal bana bhi dou" Farjaad requested, made a pouted.

"Ek ap aur ap ke drame" Umeed scoffed.

Umeed started setting his hairs, Farjaad controlled her smile and she glared at him.

"Jitni haseen ye mulaqaten hain,
Un se bhi pyaari teri batein hain,
Baaton mein teri jo kho jate hain,
Aon na hosh mein, mein kabhi,
Baahon mein hai teri zindagi haaye"
Song: "Humsafar"

He was totally lost in her, Umeed glared at him, looked into her eyes. She was not understanding why he was behaving like this?

"Aise kya dekh rahe hain?"

Finally she asked hesitantly.

"Dekhne par papandi hai" Farjaad asked, did flirting with her.

Umeed lightly slapped on her face, "nashta karein, thanda horaha hai" she changed the compliment shyly.

"Aur ap na ye mujh se kaam mat karwaye, mein bhi future mein buisness women hun" Umeed said dramatically.

"Tumhe konsa business karna hai?" Farjaad asked jokingly.

"Chai ka cafe" Umeed replied happily.

"Ohoo! Phir to cafe dou din mein hi band hojaigi" Farjaad scoffed and chuckled.

Umeed gritted her teeth and dangerously glared at her, he stopped laughing and made a pout, "mazak kar raha hun" he covered his compliment.

"Bht hi fuzool aur ghatiya mazak hai" Umeed said annoyingly, crossed her arms.

"Wese, tumne business karna kab hai?" Farjaad asked normally.

"Jab Haya aur Sameer location dekhenge aur ise final karenge" Umeed replied back.

"Ok! Best of luck" Farjaad said meekly.

"Agar ye taunt hai to shut up aur agar sach mein ap kehrahe hain, then thank you" Umeed stated.

They both were teasing each other, the silence was fell in the room when they both started taking breakfast.

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

"Chalo shukar hai ke tum aur Farjaad bhai dono theek hain, warna pata nahi kya hojata"

The conversation on the phone call was going on between Haya and Umeed. Umeed was walking in the lawn, enjoying the evening weather and Haya was in her hospital cabin, concerning and asking about the Farjaad's health.

"Han! Lekin mujhe to abhi bhi yaqeen nahi araha hai ke Farjaad ne mere liye apni jaan ki bhi koi parwah nahi ki" Umeed told smilingly.

"Han! Han! Ab to bht si batein hongi jin par tumhe yaqeen nahi aiga" Haya tried to teased her.

"What you mean by this?" Umeed pretended.

"Matlab ye ke tumhe" Haya was about to spoke but Umeed interrupted, "ye mat kehna ke mujhe Farjaad se mohabbat hogai hai" Umeed warned dramatically.

"Ohhh! Ab to tumhe meri batein bhi samjh ane lagi hain" Haya replied and giggled.

"Fuzool batein nahi karo" Umeed said, tried to changed the topic.

"Acha! Mujhe tumhe ye batana tha ke meinay aur Sameer ne tumhare cafe ki location dekhi hai, ek dou din mein wo ham final karlenge" Haya told excitedly.

"Kya?" Umeed shouted in happiness.

"Han!, bas ab tum thora wait karo aur phir tumhe tumhare cafe miljaiga" Haya assured her meekly.

"Thank you Haya" Umeed voice was filled with gratitude.

"Lekin Umeed, tumne Farjaad bhai se permission leli?" Haya asked in concerned.

"Wo mujhe mana thori karenge" Umeed replied confidently.

"That's ok" 

"Lekin Haya, cafe ki pori payment kab hogi, hamare pass jitni savings thi utne mein to adhe se bhi kam payment hogi" Umeed asked worriedly.

"Umeed! Wo actually Sameer ke dost hain jin se ham ne cafe ki baat ki thi, tum fikar nahi karo, tum jese jese cafe ko chalogi, wese wese payment bhi hojaigi" Haya assured her.

"Paka na! Koi gadh badh to nahi hogi?" Umeed asked for her concerned.

"Nahi baba! Don't worry" Haya replied meekly.

"Thank you!" Umeed said softly.

"Khuda Hafiz" Haya greeted.

Umeed greeted back and they declined the call.

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

Umeed happily entered in the room while jumping. Her eyes were shining, lips were smiling and heart was dancing. Farjaad was working on his laptop while sitting on the bed, he looked at her.

"Kya hua, tum kyu itna khush ho, kiska sar phardia ab?" Farjaad scoffed while closing his laptop.

"Aj ap mujh par tans bhi karenge na to mujhe koi masla nahi hai, aj mein bht khush hun" Umeed replied joyly.

"Kyu?" Farjaad asked the reason, Umeed excitedly sat on the bed, beside him.

"Mera cafe khulne wala hai, aj Haya se baat hui hi, ek dou din mein shayad baat final hojaye" Umeed told happily.

"Ok! That's great" Farjaad praised her and giggled.

"Ab kher, roz apki shakal to nahi dekhni paregi" Umeed said arrogantly.

"Acha! Abhi se itni bari bari batein nahi karo" Farjaad warned her.

"Abhi na koi fuzool baat nahi kijiye ga, mere liye dua karein" Umeed said cutely.

"Han Allah kare meri pyaari si biwi ko akal ajaye" Farjaad replied dramatically and jokingly.

Umeed gritted her teeth, "Allah kare mere bad mizaj shohar ki karwi batein meethi baton mein badal jaye" Umeed replied in the same tone, lowered her glaze.

Farjaad smiled lightly, turned his poster towards her. He came closer to her and held her wrist tightly, Umeed eyes widened and heart was stopped.

"Ye jo tum shohar kehdeti ho na, agai peeche ka kuch sunai hi nahi deta" Farjaad said romantically.

"Ye apko kya hogaya hai?" Umeed asked nervously, didn't maintained eye contact with him.

"Kuch nahi!" Farjaad replied meekly, he smiled.

"Ap na bht fuzool batein kar rahe hain, hath to chorein" Umeed said annoyingly, lowered her glaze.

Farjaad pouted, leaved her hands.

"Wese tum bhi na bht bari film ho" Farjaad mocked.

"Baat sune! Ye jo ap ke mood swings hain na, ye khatam karden" Umeed said angrily.

"Mere kya mood swings hain?" Farjaad asked, crossed his arms.

"Kabhi ap Halaku khan to kabhi ap SRK" Umeed replied, furrowed her eye brows.

"Acha! To matlab tum chahti ho ke mein tum se pyaar se rahun" Farjaad whispered, tried to confused her.

Umeed lightly moved backwards, "nahi! Koi zarorat nahi hai, ap aisi theek hain" she gasped.

Farjaad giggled towards her childish attitude, Umeed blushed and covered herself from the blanket. He again looked at her, she closed her eyes and controlled her blushing.

"Ap ye jakar windows band karein, thand ho rahi hain" Umeed tried to changed the topic.

"Already band hain" Farjaad replied smiling, shrugged his shoulders.

"Acha! To phir sojaye" Umeed said, laid down. He also laid down smilingly.

"Baat suno" Farjaad whispered.

"Jee?" She scoffed.

"Kuch nahi" Farjaad replied meekly.

Umeed covered her eyes with her shoulders. Farjaad was enjoying and teasing her and was controlling her blushing and smile miserably.

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

"2 days skip"

"Itne din se office nahi gaya hun, pata nahi kya ho raha hoga" Farjaad said worriedly.

He was getting ready for his office and Umeed was setting her wardrobe.

"Apka office band nahi hoga, befikar rahen" Umeed assured sarcastically.

"Tumhare moo se kabhi koi achi baat nahi nikal sakti" Farjaad taunted.

"Aur apka office kabhi khatam nahi hoga" Umeed said furiously.

"Acha akar meri tie bandho" Farjaad requested politely.

Umeed raised her eye brows, closed the cupboard and walked towards him. She took the tie and started tied on the collar. Farjaad smilingly looked at her, admiring her lovingly.

Suddenly someone knocked the door, "ajayein" Farjaad screamed.

Reena entered in the room smilingly, Farjaad glared at her, "Reena tum?" He called out her name meekly.

Reena smile was disappeared when she looked at them, they both were actually closed to each other.

"Hogaya" Umeed said, smiled in sarcastic way.

"Mein shayad galat waqt par agayi hun" Reena said in desperate tone.

"Nahi nahi! Tum batao, koi kaam tha?" Farjaad asked softly.

"Han! Wo actually, wo tum se milne ayi thi, tumhari tabiyat theek nahi thi na" Reena told.

"Lekin ab Farjaad bilkul theek hain" Umeed interrupted.

"Farjaad! Tum office jaa rahe the?" Reena ignored her, directly asked to Farjaad.

"Han!" Farjaad mumbled.

"To kya tum mujhe bhi drop kardoge, mujhe to laga tha ke tum office nahi jarahe, isliye mein tum se milne ayi thi" Reena gulped.

"Acha! It's ok, mein drop kardunga, why not" Farjaad replied meekly.

Umeed controlled her anger, glared at him with deadly glance. Farjaad smilingly looked at her.

"Ham breakfast karte hain aur phir nikalte hain" Farjaad added.

"Theek hai! Ok" Reena replied.

She walked out from the room.

"Mein bhi baba se milne jaa rahi hun, ap mujhe bhi drop karden" Umeed ordered.

"Acha! Theek hai, pehle mein tumhe drop kardunga then Reena ko" Farjaad agreed and then demanded.

"Nahi! Ap pehle Reena ko drop karenge" Umeed demanded.

"Umeed! Please, Reena ka ghar mere office se qareeb hai, pehle ise drop karunga" Farjaad ordered strictly. "Jaldi se neeche ajao" he said gently and walked out from the room.

Umeed closed her eyes and controlled herself, her blood was boiled like lava. She took her bag and walked out from the room, behind him.
