"Han to bhai, Umeed is ghar mein sab ke liye bht special hai, iski jagah koi nahi le sakta, ap bhi nahi" Mimi said softly and held her arm.

Farjaad chuckled, "acha theek hai"

"Lekin tumhare liye, tumhare bhai zyada important hone chaiye" Reena interuppted.

"Nahi, mere liye sirf meri Umeed important hain" Mimi replied in sarcastic way."Chalo Umeed, ham coffee banane chalte hain" Mimi said softly, held her arm and they went from there.

********

Umeed and Mimi reached in the kitchen.

"Mimi, tumhe ye baat nahi kehni chaiye thi ke Farjaad se zyada mein important hun" Umeed complained.

"Umeed, ye baat mein bhai ko hazar dafa keh chuki hun aur tum janti ho ke tum aur bhai dono meri lifeline ho" Mimi replied, pulled her cheeks.

"Lekin tumne Reena ko itna rudely jawab kyu dia hai?" Umeed asked.

"I don't like her, bhai ki bht achi dost hai lekin mujhe bilkul pasand nahi hai" Mimi said, made a ugly face.

"Aise nahi kehte, chalo ham coffee banate hain" Umeed explained.

"Umeed, ab tumhe bhai se apne dil ki baat kehdeni chaiye" Mimi suggested her.

"Han, mein bhi yahi soch rahi hun" Umeed said shyly and smiled while lowering her glaze.

"Han to aj hi tum bhai ko propose kardo, dekhna wo accept karlena" Mimi said excitingly.

"Agar mera dil tut gaya to?" Umeed asked, her smile disappeared.

"Tumhari mohabbat mein koi kami nahi hai, dil nahi tutega" Mimi said confidently.

"Lekin agar hogaya to?" Umeed asked again.

"Tumhi to kehti ho ke mohabbat isaan ko mazboot kardeti hai" Mimi said.

"Lekin mohabbat kabhi takleef bhi dedeti hai" Umeed responded, Mimi remained silent.

"Acha ham coffee banate hain, sab choro" Umeed changed the topic.

Mimi nodded her head and they started preparing coffee.

********

Reena and Farjaad were walking in the lawn, talking with each other normally.

"Wese Farjaad, mujhe na Mimi ki dost kuch sahi nahi lagi" Reena said rudely.

"Kya matlab?" Farjaad asked

"Matlab ye ke Mimi ko tumhare se zyada kisi ko importance nahi deni chaiye" Reena replied.

"Come on Reena, tum kese batein karahi ho, Umeed aur Mimi best friends hain aur Mimi bhi mujhse bht pyaar karti hai" Farjaad said, defended her sister.

"Han, jo bhi hai lekin mujhe Mimi ki ye baat bht buri lagi hai, iske liye hamesha Umeed hi important rahegi, hamari shaadi ke baad bhi?" Reena said in irritating tone.

"Dekho, tum Umeed ke bare mein itna nahi socho" Farjaad tried to changed the topic.

"Mein sirf Mimi ki baat par bht disappoint hui hun" Reena said, made a face.

"Kyuu?"

"Tumhare parents ise sab se zyada importance derahe hain, Mimi ise sab se zyada importance derahi hai, meri to koi importance nahi hai, shaadi ke baad bhi Umeed hi sab ke liye important rahegi?" Reena complained.

"Meri liye sirf ap important hain, apko aur kya chaiye?" Farjaad said smilingly, Reena smiled.

"Ab andar chalein, shayad coffee bangai hogi" Reena demanded.

Farjaad nodded his head, they went inside.

********

They both enters in the launch, they all were sipping on the tea while giggling and laughing. Reena got irritated after looking Umeed.

"Aree ajaye ap dono, world best coffee tayar hai" Mimi said, appreciated her best friend.

Farjaad and Mimi took their cups and smilingly sat on the sofa, Umeed softly smiled and lowered her glaze.

"By the way, Umeed coffee bht achi bani hai" Farjaad said smilingly.

"Thank you" Umeed feels delighted, her heart stopped beating.

"Han, mein to Umeed ki coffee ka fan hogaya hun" Shujaat Sahab appreciated.

"Hmm, bht achi coffee hai lekin bht meethi hai" Reena interuppted.

"Kabhi kabhi insaan ko meethi cheeze bhi try karni chaiye" Mimi responded rudely.

"Meetha khana health ke liye acha nahi hota" Reena said in sharp tone.

"Nahi, karwi batein health ke liye bht buri hoti hain" Mimi replied.

Umeed held Mimi's hand, tried to control her. Mimi stopped the argument.

"Mimi, wo tumne kaha tha na ke tumhe koi zarori kaam hai, to chalein?" Umeed asked.

"Han, chalo ham room mein chalte hain" Mimi held her hand and they went from there, Reena controlled her anger.

********

The get together was over, Reena and her family also leaves from there but Umeed was still present, waiting for Sameer. She enters in the lawn and looked at moon, she smiled towards the moon and stars, closed her eyes. Farjaad enters in the lawn while sipping on the coffee, he went towards the Umeed.

"Umeed?" Farjaad called her name softly.

Umeed turned around and surprisely looked at him, her heart started beating fast, hands was shivering and face was red. Umeed smiled towards him.

"Tum yahan is waqt, ap ghar nahi gai?" Farjaad asked.

"Jee, wo mein apne bhai ka wait karahi thi, wo aingay to mein jaongi" Umeed responded innocently with soft smile.

"Agar koi problem hai to mein apko drop kardun?" Farjaad asked in concern.

"Nahi mein chali jaongi" Umeed smilingly replied.

"Wese tum ye chand ko kyu dekhti rehti ho?" Farjaad asked.

"Mein chand ko isliye dekhti hun ke ye bht khubsorat hai" Umeed replied with soft smile and blushed.

"Tumhari batein meri samaj mein nahi ati" Farjaad said.

"Aingi, apko bht jaldi meri batein samaj ajaingi" Umeed said, again lost in him completely.

"Acha wo kese?" Farjaad asked while taking a sip of coffee.

"Kyuke abhi apko kisi se mohabbat nahi hui hai na" Umeed responded.

"Achaa, ye iska jawab nahi hai" Farjaad replied.

"Ap nahi samjhenge, mohabaat mein insaan na pagal hojata hai, kuch bhi karleta hai" Umeed jokingly replied.

"Wo pagal sirf tum hi ban sakti ho" Farjaad replied and chuckled.

Umeed smiled, lost in him and replied, "mein to mar bhi sakti hun" she said, her voice filled with tenderness.

"Dekha, koi hai paka koi hai, dekho tum iska naam nahi batao lekin ye batado koi hai na?" Farjaad asked curiously.

Umeed grinned and blinked her eyes, "mujhe pata tha ke koi to hai" he said in authorative tone.

"Naam nahi pochenge ke wo kon hai?" Umeed asked confidently and walked behind him.

Farjaad move forward and looked at the moon, Umeed excitingly and quickly tored the flower from the plant, Umeed went behind him and he was looking at the moon lovingly. Mimi enters in the lawn and stood beside Umeed, gestured her to spoke. They both were standing behind him and Farjaad was in his seperate world. Umeed can't control herself, she sat on the knees and Mimi controlled her smile.

"Farjaad?" Umeed called his name sweetly. "Hmm" Farjaad replied but didn't turned towards her.

"Wo mujhe kuch kehna hai" Umeed said, closed her eyes in shyness.

"Tum apni mohabbat ka naam baad mein batana lekin Pehle tum iska naam to sunlo jise mein mohabbat karta hun, jise mein apna chand samjhta hun" Farjaad said and chuckled, he was still looking at sky.

Umeed's smile was disappeared, her heart was crumbled, Farjaad about to turned back but Umeed quickly stood up and control her emotions, Mimi was startled and shocked after heard the name of "Reena"

"Han, mein Reena se pyaar karta hun" Farjaad replied softly.

"Oh wow, nice choice, Reena bht achi hai" Umeed smilingly said, Mimi shockly looked at her.

"I know Umeed, wese tum sahi kehti ho mohabbat insan ko pagal bana deti hai" Farjaad said politely.

Suddenly they heard the horn sound, Umeed thought that Sameer arrived.

"Wo shayad Sameer agaya, mein chalti hun Mimi" Umeed voice was breaking, the tears were forming in her eyes. Umeed hugged Mimi and Mimi tightly hugged her, "i am sorry Umeed" Mimi whispered.

They broke their hug, "Mimi apna khayal rakhna" she whispered, "Umeed, tum bhi apna bht khayal rakhna" Mimi eyes was little bit teary, she waved her hand towards Farjaad and walked towards the main gate.

"Afsos hota hai,
Dil bhi ye rota hai,
Sapne sanjota hai,
Badla hua soche ye,
Ham the mile,
Tum se na jaane kyu, Milon ke,
Hain faasle, tumse na jaane kyu....
Tu jaane naaa,
Tu jaane naa...💔

Umeed reached towards the car and quietly sat on passenger seat..
