After sometime, when Janvi didn't come out, Pragya and Abhi grew tensed.

Pr~ye bahar kiun nahi aa rahi?

Ab~kaheen chakkar na agaye ho'n, behosh na ho gayi ho'n

V~aap khatka kar dekhiye

Pr~haan, (she went and knocked on the door) Janvi, beta kya hua aap kiun nahi aa rahi? (there was no answer) Janvi? (she came back) ye toh jawab he nahi de rahi

Ab~hum knock karte hain phir se, (he went and knocked) Janvi! Bahar aaiye kya hua aap ko? Janvi! (he also came back) kuchh garbar hai, darwaza torr dete hain

Pr~yahi theek rahay ga

Abhi and Viraj both pushed at the door and broke it. They entered inside to see that Janvi was nowhere to be seen, the window was open.

Ab~Janvi kahan gayi?

V~bhaag gayi

Ab~magar kiun? Unhein toh bukhaar tha, aisi haalat mein wo kahan jaaein gi?

Viraj understood everything and had no option but to lie.

V~dawaai se bachne ke liye kiya unho'n ne ye sab

Pragya came there.

Pr~Janvi bhaag gayi?

V~jee haan

Pragya held her head.

Pr~aise kaise bhaag gayi aur kiun bhaag gayi?

Ab~dawaai se bachne ke liye. Ab jab pata lagay ga ke rajkumari bhaag gayi toh sab kya sochengay? Aur wo kahan hongi kis haal mein hongi

V~maaf kijiye ga magar kuchh nahi sochengay, aur main waada karta hoon main unhein sahi salamat ghar wapis le aaun ga agar aap ki ijazat ho toh

Ab~haan Viraj please unhein wapis le aao, aur kehna ke wo jaisa kahengi hum sab waisa he karengay

V~jee, main zaroor kahoon ga

He left. Only one thought lingered in his mind that when he will tell Janvi that Abhi and Pragya would agree to whatever she says, she would definitely ask them to get him to take care of her in fever. He ran out of the palace and stopped to ask thw guards.

V~suniye, aap ne kisi ko bahar jaate dekha yahan se?

Guard 1~jee haan, main ne rajkumari ko dekha jaate huay

V~kis taraf gayi wo?

Guard 2~idhar se left

V~theek hai

He ran in the direction looking for Janvi and searched for her everywhere.

V~kahan gayi ye? God.

Then he heard a familiar voice.

"Aray bhaiya, aap hum se paise maangengay? Rajkumari Janvi se? Aap khaate mein daal dijiye hum baad mein aa kar detay hain na humesha ki tarah, abhi baat ko zara samjhiye humare paas bilkul paise nahi is wakt, saare paise ghar pe hain."

Viraj slapped his forehead.

V~ye rajkumari bhi na. Inhein main kab se har jagah dhoond raha hoon, aur ye yahan hain aaram se ice cream kha rahi hain. Oh, lekin in ko toh bukhaar tha.

He went to the ice cream vendor.

V~khaate mein daalne ki zaroorat nahi, main aap ke ghar ka naukar hoon na? Paise liye thay maine, kahein toh main de doon?

Janvi startled hearing his voice.

J~Viraj tum?

V~haan main, yahan milein gi ye umeed nahi thi mujhe, bukhaar tha na aap ko toh, phir aap ice cream kiun kha rahi hain? Ghar chaliye wapis, aap ke maa baba aap ke liye pareshaan hain

J~Mr Viraj, phone kar dijiye aur bata dijiye ke hum sahi salamat hain aur yahan aaram se ice cream kha rahay hain, (Viraj rolled his eyes) bhaiya, ek aur ice cream dena, inhein bhi khaani hai

Viraj gasped.

V~kya? Nahi nahi, mujhe nahi khaani

J~chup! Koi pyaar se bad'dua tak de toh le kar rakh leni chahiye, hum toh phir bhi ice cream de rahay hain

V~pehli baat toh ye ke bad'dua koi pyaar se nahi deta, (Janvi chuckled) aur doosri baat ye ke mujhe koi ice cream nahi chahiye, (Janvi took the ice cream from the vendor and touched it on his nose bursting into laughter) ye kya kiya aap ne?

J~wohi jis ke tum laayak ho, pakro khao

He took it and did the same to her, she gasped.

V~ab bukhaar nahi hai aap ko?

J~umm pata nahi, aap check kar lijiye, (Viraj sighed) kijiye kijiye

He touched her forehead and she enjoyed his touch.

V~bukhaar toh hai

J~toh is thandi thandi ice cream se utar jaaye ga, aap enjoy karo, pareshaan mat ho humare liye

V~main aur pareshaan wo bhi aap ke liye?

J~achha? Phir dhoondne kiun aye?

V~kiun ke aap ke maa baba pareshaan thay

J~hmm toh dhoondne toh wo bhi aa saktay thay lekin tum aye

V~unhone mujhe bheja

J~nahi Viraj, humein poora yakeen hai aap ne he un se waada kiya ho ga ke aap humein sahi salamat wapis le aayengay, hai na?

Viraj was speechless.

J~bolo, hairaan ho na ke itne achhe se kaise jaanti hoon? Tumhe humari fikr hai bas tum dikhate nahi, aur subha se ye doosri baar tum ne fikr dikhai, toh ab please ye ice cream kha lo aur phir chalte hain, lekin tum maa baba ko manao gay ke mujhe koi injection nahi lagwana

V~haan theek hai, wo pehle he maan gaye hain

J~yayyy, chalo phir aaram se ice cream khao, khao khao

Viraj nodded and they had ice cream together. He eyed her as she had ice cream messing her lips and giggled. She saw him and raised her eyebrows questioning him as she finished the ice cream, he passed his handkerchief, she smiled and took it.

Mann yeh saahib ji, jaane hai sab ji

Phir bhi banaye bahane

Naina nawaabi ji, dekhe hai sab ji

Phir bhi na samjhe ishaare

Mann yeh saahib ji, haan, karta bahane

Naina nawaabi ji na samjhe ishaare, samjhe ishaare

Dheere-dheere, nainon ko dheere-dheere

Jiya ko dheere-dheere bhaayo re saibo

Dheere-dheere, begana dheere-dheere

Apna sa dheere-dheere laage re saibo

Janvi smiled at him and returned his handkerchief, he took it and placed it back in his pocket. It was time to leave and without realizing, he forwarded his hand to her, she looked at him amused, when he realized he began taking his hand back but she held it before that happened passing him a mischievous smile, he looked away and began to walk with her back home.

Surkhhiyan hai hawaon mein

Do dilon ke milne ki

Haan, arziyan hai nazaaron mein

Lamha yeh tham jaane ki

Kaisi huzoori ji yeh lab dikhlaye?

Chuppi lagake bhi ghazab hai yeh dhaye

Dheere-dheere, nainon ko dheere-dheere
Jiya ko dheere-dheere bhaayo re saibo
Dheere-dheere, begana dheere-dheere
Apna sa dheere-dheere laage re saibo

Gradually, he looked at her to find that she's already looking at him, he looked down, she smiled.

Saibo, saibo

Dheere-dheere, dheere-dheere

Naa saa dheere

Dheere-dheere, saibo

Dheere-dheere
