Farjaad observed and glared at her, "Aise kya dekh rahi ho?" Farjaad asked, he knew that she was starring him but he pretended.

"Ab kuch nahi!" Umeed said shyly.

"Dekhlo! Tumhara hi hun" Farjaad said romantically.

"Nahi! Mein apko nahi dekh rahi thi" Umeed lied clearly.

"Bas! Tum se na jhoot bola jata hai aur na hi izhar hota hai" Farjaad taunted lovingly.

He extended the spoon, gestured her to eat but she nodded negatively.

"Acha! Bas thora sa khalo" Farjaad insisted.

"Nahi! Mein bht thak gayi hun" Umeed said lazily.

"Ok" Farjaad agreed.

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

Next morning, Umeed was getting ready for her cafe. She was trying to woke up Farjaad. She completed her makeup, quickly went towards him and started calling his name.

"Farjaad!!" Umeed yelled.

"Hmm!" Farjaad mumbled in sleeping tone.

"Mein cafe ke liye jaa rahi hun" Umeed told meekly.

Farjaad opened his eyes and looked at him surprisingly.

"Allah kher! Itni jaldi?" Farjaad scoffed.

"Starting ki baat hai then phir mein sham mein jaya karongi" Umeed replied truthfully.

"Acha ruko! Mein drop kardeta hun" Farjaad offered.

"Nahi! Ap aram karein, mein khud jaa rahi hun" Umeed refused for his concerned.

"Aree bas 5 min rukjao, mein drop kardunga" Farjaad insisted.

"Nahi naa, ap aram karein, mein Mimi ke sath chali jaongi" Umeed assured him.

"Theek hai, aram se jana"

Farjaad commanded, held her hand and kissed on her palm. Umeed cupped his face mischievously and rushed out from the room.

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

"Haya! Itne sare customers bethe hue hain" Umeed told worriedly.

"Umeed! Befikar raho, meinay chai banali hai, Sameer jab tak order le raha hai" Haya assured her.

"Haya! Tum hospital kab se join karogi?" Umeed asked genuinely.

"Maybe one ya two weeks ke baad!" Haya told.

"Tum meri wajah se pareshan nahi hona, mein manage karlungi" Umeed said meekly.

"Han theek hai, koi masla nahi hai, tum pareshan nahi ho" Haya replied smilingly.

"Tum bht achi ho" Umeed said excitedly, hugged her.

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

The day was passed chaotically, Umeed was handling her cafe brilliantly and sensibly. She gain so much profit in the last two days which was unexpected and surprised.

Umeed entered in the room, Farjaad was setting his cupboard and glared at her.

"Hii!" Farjaad said cutely.

Umeed blinked, he went to her and held her hands, he kissed softly on her palms.

"Kesa raha din?" Farjaad asked.

"Acha!" Umeed replied truthfully, smiling.

"Chalo ao, aj kahin bahar chalte hain" Farjaad popped an idea.

"Hmm! Dekhte hain, pehle mein fresh hojaon" Umeed requested innocently.

"Jaiye" Farjaad said meekly.

Umeed went for freshen up.

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

Umeed came out from the washroom, Farjaad entered in the room along with the cups of tea.

"Ye chai ap kyu lekar arahe hain?" Umeed asked, concerned.

"Kyu! Apki khidmat karna to mera farz hai" Farjaad said lovingly, grinned.

Umeed closed her eyes in shyness, "had hai! Banda flirting bhi dekh kar karta hai" She taunted, joked.

Farjaad extended the tray, Umeed took the cup and sat on the bed. He kept the tray on the table, sat beside her.

"Cafe kesa jaa raha hai?" Farjaad asked normally.

"Acha jaa raha hai" Umeed replied truthfully.

"Jee Jee! Lekin ap ko achanak kya hogaya hai?" Farjaad asked, created a suspense.

"Mujhe kya hogaya?" Umeed inquired.

"Meri porani wali Umeed kahin kho gayi hai" Farjaad said, pouted.

"Acha! Wo Umeed to apko zehar lagti thi" Umeed mocked.

"Han! Lekin ab achi lagne lagi thi" Farjaad replied meekly.

"Oh! Wese mujhe na ab tak yaqeen nahi ata ke apko bhi mujh se mohabbat hogayi" Umeed said surprisingly.

"To tumhe nahi hai?" Farjaad asked, tried to test her patience.

"Nahi!" Umeed replied confidently, looked around.

"Samne dekh kar kaho" Farjaad commanded.

Umeed glared at him, directly looked into his eyes.

"Kya?" Umeed asked, bite her lower lip.

"Yahi ke tumhe mera sath acha lagta hai" Farjaad replied sweetly.

"Ham shayad bahar jane wale the?" Umeed asked, changed the topic.

"Han! To chai peeyo aur chalte hain" Farjaad agreed.

Umeed took a sip, "wese chai to apko banani ati hai, achi bani hai" She praised.

"Aur apko sabudana banana bhi acha ata hai" Farjaad said with cheeky smiled.

Umeed glared at him and burst into laughter, Farjaad fakely offended and furrowed his eye brows, Umeed controlled her laugh and look at him.

"I am sorry! Mazak kar rahi hun" Umeed apologized, controlled her laugh.

"Wese mazak meinay shuru kia tha" Farjaad said meekly.

"Ap sab chorein, ye bataye ke apne chai banane kese seekhi?" Umeed asked curiously.

"Jab mein chai peene wali se shaadi kar sakta hun to chai banana bhi seekh sakta hun" Farjaad replied softly and dramatically.

"Han! Matlab apne meri wajah se chai banana seekhi hai?" Umeed asked, waited for the answer.

"Han!" Farjaad mumbled.

"Acha! To ab ap cafe par ajaye, chai banane ke liye" Umeed joked.

"Soch raha hun ke sunday ko mein asakta hun" Farjaad popped an idea.

"Nahi! Mein sab khud handle karlongi" Umeed said confidently.

Farjaad chuckled, Umeed smiled back. They both were happily talking with each other, spend their quality time and romantic moments together. Umeed was falling for him again and again, she knew but she didn't confessed. She was trying to test his patience but Farjaad knew his crazy Umeed.

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

Next morning, Farjaad entered in the dining room and took his seat, waiting for the breakfast.

Umeed entered along with the breakfast trolley, started keeping the plates on the table. Farjaad glared at her surprisingly.

"Aj suraj kahan se nikla hai?" Farjaad asked in sarcastic way.

"Farjaad khan Bahadur ke ghar se" Umeed replied in the same tone.

"Allah kher! Ye aj apne nashta banaya hai?" Farjaad asked for confirmation.

"Han! I hope apko acha lagega" Umeed replied, smiling.

"Nahi! Mujhe lag raha hai ke pata nahi aj" Farjaad said hesitant, she glared at him with narrowed eyes.

"Matlab! Aj ka din acha guzrega agar apke hath ka nashta milega to" Farjaad abruptly changed the statement.

Umeed smiled, took her seat beside him.

"Ye sab meinay bht mehnat se banaya hai, isliye sara khatam karna hai" Umeed commanded.

Umeed served him the sandwich in the plate, she poured the tea in the cup and extended the cup.

"Wese! Aj apki ankh kese khul gayi?" Farjaad inquired.

"Ab to adat hogayi ho" Umeed replied meekly.

"Chalo! Kuch to acha hua" Farjaad replied mocking, tried to teased her.

"Ye tans karna na kisi din apko mehnga parega" Umeed gritted his teeth.

Farjaad grinned, "Acha! Sorry" He apologized meekly.

He took the sandwich and gestured her to eat, she took a bite and he started eating while looking at her.

"Kya, aise kya dekh rahe hain?" Umeed asked confusingly.

"Dekh raha hun ke ap wohi hain jisne mera jeena haram kiya hua tha" Farjaad answered softly.

"Kher! Mein bhi yahi soch rahi hun ke apke moo se karwi aur kasili batein hi suni thi, achanak se reverse mood kese lagaya" Umeed replied lovingly.

Farjaad smiled, held his hand and gently kissed. Umeed startled, "ye apko achanak ho kya jata hai?" She said hesitantly.

"Tumhe pata hai ke ab aisa lagta hai ke jese tumhare sath hote hue pori duniya ruk jati hai" Farjaad confessed romantically, in calm tone.

Umeed lowered her glaze shyly, she can't expected this compliment from her grumpy Farjaad.

"Mein to yun khara kis,
Soch mein para tha,
Kese jee raha tha mein deewana"

"Aur jab tum is tarah sharmati ho to dil chahta hai ke mein tumhe aisi dekhta rahun" Farjaad added lovingly.

"Chup ke se ake tune,
Dil mein sama ke tune,
Cher dia kesa ye fasaana"

Umeed looked into his eyes, Farjaad was admiring him with glimed eyes, she smiled and tried to changed the compliment.

"Ap!" Umeed tried to create words.

Farjaad kept his finger on her lip, made her completely startled.

"Agai kuch mat kehna, mujhe bas apni Umeed ko dekhna hai" Farjaad warned lovingly.

"Muskurana bhi tujhi se seekha hai,
Dil lagane ka tu hi tareeqa hai,
Aitbaar bhi tujhi se hota hai,
Aon na hosh mein, mein kabhi,
Bahon mein hai teri, zindagi haaye"

Sun mere humsafar!"
Song: "Humsafar"
Movie: Badrinath ki dulhaniya"

Umeed become speechless, looked at him lovingly.

"Ap nashta karein, der ho rahi hai" Umeed yelled.

Farjaad giggled, enjoying her confused and cute face. Umeed controlled her smile, started eating with him.

"Raat ko ane mein der hojaigi, ap khana khaa lijiye ga" Umeed informed.

"Nahi! Mein wait karlonga" Farjaad replied.

"As your wish" Umeed agreed, made Farjaad smiled as usual.

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

"Haya! Ye itne sare customers ka kya karna hai?" Umeed asked worriedly, panicked.

"Umeed! Ab to tumne ek chef arrange karlia hai, ab panic hona chordo" Haya meekly assured her.

"Han! Lekin aj kal cafe par rush hone laga hai" Umeed explained her concern.

"Han! Achi baat hai, tum apna profit nikalna, dekhna tumhe bht profit hoga" Haya popped an idea.

"Hmm!"

"Tum betho, mein jab tak bahar dekh kar ati hun" Haya instructed, walked out from the kitchen.

Umeed looked around, got a notification. She opened her phone, received the message from Farjaad.

"Shayad aj mein bhi late hojaon to apna khayal rakhna, i know ap bht ache se kaam manage kar rahi hain lekin kabhi apni health ka khayal rakhlia karein, I love you!"

Umeed read the message, smiled heartily. She never knew that this will happened, she kept her phone on her heart, replied to his message.

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

The day was passed, the evening was passed. It was 12:00 clock. Farjaad entered in the room, looked around for Umeed but she was not present, he got suspicious and worried. He took out his phone and dialed her number.

Umeed received the call.

"Hello! Jee Farjaad" Umeed greeted.

"Umeed! Tum kahan ho, sab theek hai na?" Farjaad asked worriedly, concerned.

"I am so sorry! Meinay apko message nahi kia, mein Pasha house agayi hun, shayad yahin ruko" Umeed apologized and told the truth.

"Acha ok!" Farjaad said in sad voice.

"Achi baat hai, ek din ap mere bagair sukoon ka guzarenge" Umeed taunted.

"Ab aisa nahi hai na, adat hogayi hai, ab tum nahi ho to ajeeb sa lag raha hai" Farjaad whined like a baby.

"Acha baba! Mein ajaongi" Umeed assured him.

"Theek hai! Ap se mein baad mein baat karta hun, pehle fresh hojaon" Farjaad commanded.

"Theek hai! Bye" Umeed chuckled.

"Bye! Love you" Farjaad grinned.

They declined the call.

Farjaad pouted, silently and helplessly went for freshen up.

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

The night was beautiful, the moon and stars were shining. Farjaad was sleeping peacefully, suddenly he heard the creepy voice from the entrance door. He turned his poster towards the door, sat on the bed.

"Kon hai?" Farjaad asked in heavy voice.

Farjaad opened the lamp, looked at smiling Umeed.

"Umeed! Tum?" Farjaad asked, rolled his eyes.

Umeed giggled, "ap dar gaye the naa" She complimented.

"Yaar! Kya kar rahi ho aur tum kiske sath ayi ho?" Farjaad asked shockingly.

"Akele!" Umeed replied nonchalantly.

"Itni raat ko, tum pagal hogayi ho, tumhe pata hai ke halat kitne kharab hain" Farjaad scolded her.

"Achaa na!"

Umeed quickly sat on the bed, beside him. "Mera bhi apke bagair dil nahi lag raha tha, isliye agai" She confessed meekly.

Farjaad smiled, "tumhe bhi to larne ki adat hogayi hai" He mocked.

"Han! Aur apko mujh se mohabbat karne ki" Umeed replied lovingly.

"Acha! Ab ap fresh hojaye aur sojaye" Farjaad commanded.

"Han! Kal mujhe bhi subah cafe jana hai" Umeed told.

"Kyu?" Farjaad questioned.

"Actually! Ab rash hone laga hai, mujhe kuch important kaam bhi hai na" Umeed replied worriedly.

"No worries" Farjaad assured her.

"Mein fresh hogayi thi, mein bas ab rest karongi" Umeed informed.

"Good night!" Farjaad greeted.

She blinked her eyes, they laid down and fell asleep while taking.
