Excel College- Classroom (assume few days later)
Nupur walks in with Rohan and ash
"yeh itne log yun hain class mein aaj?"
"di abhi mayank sir ka class hain!"
"kya!!" and felt odd suddenly. Wasn't it just yesterday that they had sat in class together.
Mayank walked in and nupur alongwith everyone else went quiet. Once he started class, students generally listened quietly.
Nupur felt a thrill- a sudden pride as she stared at his easy confident ways. And felt a blush rise up when she realised he was next to her chair and she was staring at him almost shamelessly. She suddenly met his eyes and recognised the warning in them saying- stop staring. And bent her head .hardly a word of what he said entered her head.
The class over- mayank gave her a quick glance before leaving the room.
"*** man, yeh sir kyun hain?" one girl sighed
"i know . so smart, so cute...par scary hain thoda." Nupur smiled as if she knew what they meant.
" Haaan but aaj kal kuch zyaada smile nahin karthe?" nupur smiled broadly. Rohan and ashwini nudged her .
"haaan yaar. jab main staffroom gayi leave form par sign lene tho itna biiiggg dimplewaala smile diya mujhe" nupurs smile vanished in a second.
"KYA?" she asked in her shrill voice "smile kyun kiya?"
A lot of the class looked at her in surprise. Ashwini held her and before she spoke said," you girls ! tum log ek teacher ke bare mein yeh sab baat nahin karsakthe."
"just who are you? "" exactly! Who the hell are you to tell us ki hum kiske bare mein kya bat karein?"" lagtha hain bar se time mil gaya college aanekeliye."
Rohan stood up and giving them a glare, pulled ashwini and nupur out of the room before both started fighting with the others.

MN house
Mayank walked into the room , grinned at nupur who was clearing up some books on the table and placed a kiss on her cheeks.
"yeh kisleye?"
"arre, main kya apni wife ko kiss nahin karsaktha?"
"haan par ...bolo kyun khush ho? kisi girl student ne tumpe line maari kya? "
"Kya? " he looked at her in surprise and then shrugged and continued," tumne tests mein achha kiya hain. "
"kya? Main fail nahin hui? " and laughed clapping her hands," by god mayank sach?!!! hey bhagwaan ,tumne mujhe bachaliya. Mere izzat rakhli..." she began her conversation with god.
" nupur sirf ek test hain bas."mayank said finding it funny that she was so worried about a stupid class tests.
"waise mayank ash aur rohan..."
"wo dono bhi."
She jumped up and hugged him.he hugged her back.
It was a while before she realised that he was hugging her tightly. she wondered why! Pulling herself back, she met his eyes questioningly- what happened.
He shook his head," kuch nahin. I was missing you bas."
"par main tho yahin hoon."
"haan par tumhaare saath college mein aur shaam ko wo dono bhi hain hamesha (referring to ash and rohan) . Aur jab tum free hoti ho tho saara gang aajaathe apne kisse sunaane. Jab maa thi tho tum maa ke saath baithke tv dekhthi thi. Aur jab se maa gayi hain tab se bas book khol ke ratta marthe rehthe ho.aur kuch zyaada bolthi bhi nahin. Bas kitchen ka kaam aur padhai...Mere saath padthi bhi nahin tho...tho main...mujhe tho lagtha hain ki pichle ek mahine se maine tumse baath nahin ki " he placed his head on her shoulders and let out one deep breath.
She pulled him up and placed a kiss on his cheek stopping him from complaining. She knew he was right.
"yeh kaafi nahin hoga."
"abhi ke liya kaam chalaa lena. Itna kuch complete karna tha na mayank. Aga main fail hojaathi tho shukla sir ke baath tumhe hi sunnna padtha na. "
He hugged her tighter , not letting her move.
"but still, maine tumhe bohot miss kiya nupur. Aur please tum ghar ke kaam ke liye amba ko wapas rak lo. Thoda tho tumhe aaraam miljaayega aur mujhe tumhaara time. Okay?" he said it with such a fnality that she just nodded. She was tired of trying to do too many things anyway. He smiled. " Chalo aaj tumhaare tests hogaye hain tho bahaar chalthe hain"
she gave a oh shit look.
"kya?"
"maine dia se kahaan tha ki main uski dresses try karoongi..."as his face fell," nahin nahin, hum chalenge. Tum bolo kahaan jaana hain? "
" bas drive pe chalenge. Warna decide karne se pehle tumhaara saara gang aajaayega!"
she smiled .

MN In the car
MN both happily sitting in the gaadi.
"nupur main tumhe batana bhool gaya. Wo project maine accept kiya. "
"achha kiya. Finally. "
"tumhaari wajah se. Lekin mujhe delhi jaana hain abhi kuch din ke liye. " and sensing her next question," bas teen din uske baad yehin se kaam karna hain. Michelle ne maan liya us condition ke liye."
"Michelle ?"
"wohi jisse main hamesha baat kartha hoon iske baare mein. Bohot hi sweet hain. "
she
went quiet. First there were the girls in the college who were
talking about him and he was smiling at them , then was the most
important AMBA, bai nahin par AMBA and then there was this
...michel no...michelle...and main hoon padne mein busy. Waah nupur
bhushan waah. Pehle tho ek ladki ke baare mein boltha bhi tho pahaad
utaa lethi thi aur ab...tumhe kuch tho kehna chahiye na. Pata nahin
aur kitne...waise wo boltha bhi nahin tha koi ladki ke baare mein aur ab...teen saalon mein bohot kuch badal gaya hain nupur.
suddenly her mind stopped thinking. She looked out at the road. They were in a relatively quiet road just on the outskirts.
"mayank tum mujhe kahaan le jaarahe ho?" she asked him her voice betraying sudden fear. Mayank who had been content in her company was a little surprised.
"bas aise hi nupur, drive pe. Kyun? "
"tho is raasthe pe kyun? " she looked again fearfully at the road," tum jaan boojke mujhe yahaan leke aaye ho na? Kyun? Ab maine kya kiya? Kya main phir se chillayi? Dekho mayank...please mujhe wahaan nahin jaana hain. Tum aisa..."
mayank not understanding a word of what she said only recognised the fear in her voice. He pulled over at the side of the road and stopped the car.
" please chalo... wapas. "
"par nupur hua kya? Tum itni suddenly. Main bas ek drive pe..kya hain yahaan." he placed his hand on her shoulder as she stared at the road ahead and shook her .
"main tumhe jaan bhoojke kahin nahin lejaa rahaan hoon nupur." he continued trying to soften his voice though he was simultaneously irritated and worried," kya hua?"
she turned to him and stared as if to see if he really meant what he was saying.and the concern in his eyes told her, she relaxed immediately and taking his hand in hers let a few tears flow .
