FF- Katra Katra- Part 25-141, Pt 26-145, Pt 27-148 - Page 94

Wow !! The kiss was SO well described ! I had butterflies all throughout it ! It was so beautiful. Calm, peaceful, tender, slow. The dupatta on the floor was a good touch ! His hands on her face hers on his chest, so cute ! Then the crying. Aww, was she remembering Suraj ? Must be. Loved Shaan understanding they need to take it slow then she bringing huMour + saying they need to eat LOL. You do the college talk really well. Did you do engineering ? I can see these boys know when its time to work + when its time to play. Yes ! Harshad got in ! Good you showed no jealousy ! There should be none amongst friends. You rejOice in each others happiness. I did not get the whole thing when Murli tells Shaan to concentrate + Kartik tries explaining + says 'I dunno' at end of doing so. What is that suppossed to mean ? He'S not focusing on work ? That cant be coz of Khanak can it ? They give each other space. Hmmm. LOL Kartik is too funny ! + haha Shaan planning on being late when hes mOst wanted ! LOL at him not putting his phone on + then getting irritated when he gets news related to his wife from others. The phone conversation was cute, the smiling, the shocking, the laughing. Aww, he LOVES her scarf doesnt he ? First feels iT in Class then hides it for himself. She choked his 'Hi' didnt she ? LMAO ! LOVED the lines that followed 'I swear Khanak lets skip it' Haiii ! I wish you coUld too ! Now Saaz, I'm expecting there to be a VERY good reason for you telling us about the hooks on the blouse, if you catch my drift ? ;) LMAO ! Aww, hope rememberance of SuraJ doesnt spoil the night. And you didnt answer my question before ? 2:30am calls will replace 10pm if they seperate ?

thanx 4 da pm and the updates

Saazy right from the morning there is an innocent query hovering in my mind but can't ask!! If l do these girls again here will slander me!!! 😡 

That was so emotional ! Beautifully written and put across ! Finally ! We get too see a reaction from the two about the effect of Surajs death on them ! I'm speechless ! It was too well written ! How when Kartik announces that she is going to sing everyone rushes in but he makes himself comfortable at the back. How she is hesitant at first when beginnig to sing but then eventually does with some encouragement and then how the memorys unfold. First Shaans and then hers. How he learnt from Kartik that Suraj is not going to make it and the hesitance of Kartik whilst he did so as well as Shaans turmoil. Suraj and Shaans conversation with Murli being dragged in by Shaan. Shaan is not in a right state of mind. He is like 'W*F ?!' but he does it for his friend. He's beginning to tear up. Reality is hitting the two. Then comes Khanaks memory. So beautiful. Emotional. Humour being brought to try to lighten the situation by Suraj but by Khanak to anger at him. Then her tearing up and the eye lock between the two. Beautiful. Loved the end with the two only seeing each other. Only they can understand each others feelings. Honestly Saaz, you have outdone yourself here. I want to comment on the other parts of the update but this part has touched my heart I cant seem to. Sorry. Wonderful update

The crowds are slowly dispersing. The boys are discussing when best to leave for Poona..Amit is chatting with Khanak..a few feet away from them,  Shaan is discussing plans with Harshad, Karthik and Murli.

Amit: I am serious..you should think about it..

Khanak: Don't be silly, I am a classical singer and shall always be one..Bollywood is not for me..no offence to anybody..

Shaan joins them..

Shaan: Khanak, humein chalna chahiye..the boys are going to leave in a couple of hours, they will come by for the keys..chalein..

Khanak: Haan..bye, Amit..

Amit: Think about it, Khanak..

Khanak: Let us go and say bye to the Tripathis na..

Shaan: Okay..

Khanak and Shaan take leave of the TRipathis..

Ganga: Thanks so much for coming..Ustad jee tumse milna chahte the Khanak..andar jaake unse aashirwaad leke jaana..(Khanak goes inside, Ganga turns to Shaan)..she is a gem..you are an extremely lucky man..congratulations..

Prof.TRipathi: Our boy is no less..bus Ganga, let his prototype get done..

Ganga: Tum uske peeche padhna chodh do..

Shaan: Thanks for inviting us Madam..Khanak speaks very highly of you..

Ganga: (smiles): and I of her..

Khanak comes out with Ustad jee who is also leaving..he puts his hand over Shaan..

Ustad: Beta..tumharee patni sarvagunna sampanna hai..Ganga, mai isse abhi keh raha tha ki yeh saal, Guru Purnima ka workshop pe isse zaroor aana chahiye..beta..kya nam batayaa..(looks at Khanak)

Khanak: Jee..Shantanu..

Ustad: Haan..Shaantanu..jo shagun ka roop ho..bahut achaa naam hai..

Shantanu stares at Khanak..Khanak hides her smile..

Ustad: khush raho dono..

Shaan signs Khanak to leave..Khanak hurriedly says her good byes..One of the professors offers to drop them off at the hostel..In the car, Shaan sits ahead and Khanak sits behind with two other ladies..they glance at each other in the rear view mirror and smile..they get off at the Hostel 7 gate, the chowkidar notices the professor's car and does not say anything..except..

Chowkidar uncle: Bahu..bahut achhi dikh rahee ho..

Khanak: Jee..thank you uncle..

Friday 11pm..Hostel 7..Room 201

Just after opening the door..

Shaan: BAHU??!?!!?!?!?..kya ab mujhe usse daddy bulaana padegaa?

Khanak: (laughs): Chup!

Shaan:  God..there is something about old men and you..wahan voh Khanwalla..

Khanak: Ufff..Khanwalla nahi..Khaan saab..(holds her ear and says): Bade Ustaad jee hai..(opens her cupboard and removes her box and lays it on the bed and starts removing her bangles..)

Shaan: (sits on his bed and starts removing his shoes): And what was that workshop about?

Khanak: (is unscrewing her earrings sitting on her bed facing him): Around July sometime..in Surat..

Shaan: (Pushing his shoes under the bed and folding his shirt sleeves): But why?

Khanak: (struggles with her earring): Oh ho..it is like a skills enhancement workshop..(suddenly the backscrew slips from her hand..): OH NO!

Shaan: (meanwhile is making his way to the bathroom, turns): Kya hua..

Khanak: (on her knees beside the bed): Screw gir gaya..please help..

Shaan: (bends and is on his heels beside her): How does it look..

Khanak: (turns and points to her other ear..)

Shaan: (holds her ear and watches the back closely): Hmmm..intersting..

Khanak: (goes back to looking): No time for figuring out mechanics..it is gold..I cannot lose it..

Shaan: (on his knees and heels of his hands..looks under his bed): don't worry, we will buy you another..

Khanak: It is not that simple, Suraj's father gifted it to me..

There is a minute silence..they face each other..

Shaan: How is he doing?

Khanak: Not very well..Gopi called yesterday..

Shaan: and..

Khanak: I want to support Gopi's education..

Shaan: Hmm..(goes back to looking for the screw)

Khanak gets up and puts the earring into the box..and goes into the bathroom..Shaan can hear water running..there is a knock on the door..Shaan looks at the bathroom door..it is shut..he opens the door..Karthik is at the door..

Karthik: Chavi de..we are leaving..

Shaan: haan ek second..(goes to his desk and grabs his Jansport and tries to hunt for his keys in the pocket)..

Karthik: Bhabhee kahan hai?

Shaan: (points to the bathroom):  where the hell did I put the keys??

Suddenly, the sound of running water stops..and its Khanak's voice that can be heard loudly from inside..

Khanak:  Arrey suniye..dhoondiye mat..mil gayee..blouse mei hi thee..

Shaan turns beet red..Karthik bursts out laughing..

Shaan: (turns to Karthik): chup kar..

Khanak: Suna ..maine kya kahan..screw blouse mein atak gayee..

Karthik: (lying on Shaan's bed and having a hearty laugh): Dude!!! Screw!!!..

Shaan: (pulls him out and thrusts the jeep keys in his hand): Chalta bann

Karthik: Ab samjha..why both of you are not joining us..I am proud of you man..!!! lage raho!!!

Shaan: Tu bhagta hai..ki main

Karthik: jaaraha hoon..

As soon as Shaan shuts the door behind him..Khanak opens the bathroom door..Shaan walks to her..and just as she is about to say..

Khanak:  Aapne suna..?

Shaan: (shuts her mouth): Haan haan haan..poora H 7 ko pata chal gaya hai ki tumhare blouse mei kya hai??

Khanak: (removes his fingers from over her mouth): Kya?

Shaan: Karthik yaha tha..aur tum chilla rahee ho..(animatedly): screw mere blouse mei hain

Khanak stares at him and suddenly both of them burst out laughing..they switch off the lights and go to bed..

Both are facing each other..it is dark..except for a small night emanating from the clock on the night stand..they can see each other;s faces..

Shaan: How much is Gopi's education going to cost?

Khanak: pata nahin..

Shaan: maybe we should open a fund..that way it accrues interest..

Khanak:  Should I find out at the bank..

Shaan: I will ask Bhaiya..he is a financial whiz..

Khanak: (turns and looks at the ceiling): Okay..

Shaan:  when are you leaving for Pooja's place?

Khanak: She called tonight and said plans have changed..

Shaan: Oh..

Khanak: Maybe I will go to the academy..(turns her back to him)..

Shaan: Good night, Khanak..(smiles at her back)

Khanak: Jee..good morning..(scratches the bedsheet and smiles at her self)

Shaan:  (turns his back to her and grins): Hmmm..
