Next Day:-

Dimple wakes up earlier, after all she has to clean the house, Daksh ke dad jo aane waale the.

She went to Daksh's room, he was not there.
Then she went to look for Ram, but he too was not there.

Dimple to herself:- Itni subah ye dono kahan gaye hain. Ram to walk par gaya hoga par Daksh kahan gaya. Chaut lagi hai par janaab ke pair hain ki tikte hi nahi hain. Aao tum wapas, ache se daant lagaungi.

Poore ghar me se jhadoo lagane ke baad Dimple ne jaakar apni jaan ko uthaya.


Dimple:- Jaan utho, jaldi utho, bahut kaam hai.

Meenakshi aunty:- Kya hua. Tum aaj itni jaldi kaise uth gayi. Suraj kahan se nikla hai aaj, haan. Aur abhi tumhare college nikalne me teen ghante pade hain.


Dimple:- Arre jaan, Daksh ke dad ayenge aaj. Please kuch acha acha sa bana do na. Me paucha lagane ke baad help kar doongi, par aap taiyari to shuru karo.


Meenakshi aunty:- Kyaaaa..... (she jumps off her bed). Ye baat tum mujhe ab bata rahi ho. Pehle kyun nahi bataya ki bhaisahab aayenge. Timepass mat karo. Hato ab.

Meenakshi aunty picks up her clothes from almirah and leaves to take the shower.

Dimple to self:- Lo kar lo baat🤦‍♀️Jaan to mujhse bhi zyada tension me aa gayin. Chal beta waqt barbaad mat kar. Aaj to aesa paucha lagaungi ki farsh me shakal nazar aayegi😁.


Dimple mopped the entire house. She was standing at one corner of the drawing room at the far end. Fans were switched on at full speed.

** Jab tak paucha sookh nahi jaata wo area sabki entry ke liye restricted hota hai. Utna hi restricted jitna ki Area 51 hai.

Daksh and Ram enters the drawing room before she could stop them.


Daksh:- Tum wahan putle ki tarah kyun khadi ho ye paucha lekar.


Ram to Daksh:- Ohh, mene dekha hi nahi ki pankhe chal rahe hain. Ab to bhagwaan hi bachaaye. Tum kya dekh rahe ho. Abhi tumhe maa kaali ke darshan honge.


Dimple:- (angrily) Tum dono andhe ho kya. Kisne kaha tha andar aane ko. Itna ache se farsh chamkaya tha mene. Tumne meri mehnat par ye joote fer diye.


Daksh:- Itna gussa kyun ho rahi ho. Farsh hi to hai. Fir saaf kar do.

Dimple:- Haan yahi kaam reh gaya hai mujhe.

She went near them.

Dimple to Ram:- Ye pakdo paucha. Poora farsh chamakna chahiye warna acha nahi hoga.

Daksh starts laughing at Ram.

Dimple to Daksh:- Bahut hansi aa rahi hai tumhe. Ruko zara.

She holds his hand and takes him to the front courtyard. She brings a pipe of water and a wiper.

Dimple:- Ye pakdo. Ye poora verandah dhoola hua hona chahiye, ache se. Samjhe.

Daksh:- Me Daksh Oberoi hoon. Mene kabhi jhadoo nahi lagayi aaj tak aur tum mujhse itna kaam karwaogi.

Dimple:- Aadat sudhaar rahi hoon tumhari. Tum khud saaf safai karoge tab samajh aayega ki koi use aake kharaab kare to bura lagta hai. Aur behas karoge to do kaam aur pakda doongi. Chaut lagi hai aur fir bhi tumhe walk par jaana tha, hai na. Ab karo safai.


Ram laughs at Daksh from Hall. After finishing the work, Dimple went to her room to get ready. Ram and Daksh are ready and they are with Meenakshi aunty in the kitchen.


Daksh:- Dekha Ram, mom ne mere liye paneer ke paranthe banaye hain (he passes an evil smile to Ram😈)

Ram:- Arre Daksh, tumne shayad dhyan nahi diya. Meenu maa ne mere liye bhi aaaalooooo ke paranthe banaye hain (he too passes an evil smile to Daksh😈)

Meenakshi aunty:- Tum dono bache ho kya. Ladd to aese hi rahe ho. Ye ladne ka department to guddu ka tha na. Tumne kabse le liya.

Ram and Daksh speaks together:- Wo ham to bas mazaak kar rahe the (both staring evilly at each other)

Meenakshi aunty:- Achaaa (she stares at both of them). Dono bahar jaao aur dekho guddu taiyaar hui ya nahi.


Both left for the drawing room. Before they could move any further, Dimple enters the drawing room. Both are mesmerized and they keep looking at her. Sky blue anarkali with white dupatta suits her so much.


Dimple:- Tum dono aese kyun ghoor rahe ho. Me theek lag rahi hoon na. Kuch gadbad hai kya.

Both finally wake up from their trance. Daksh gives an angry look to Ram and Ram does the same.

Daksh:- Bahut pyari lag rahi ho. Bas ek kami hai.

Dimple:- Hey bhagwaan. Kya cheej reh gayi. Dupatta sahi nahi lag raha kya. Me kisi aur colour ka try karti hoon. Tum yahin rukna.


Before Daksh could say something, she leaves for her room. She takes out five dupatta of different colour.
Standing in front of mirror,

Dimple to herself:- Ye laal rang ka.... nahi nahi, ye sahi nahi lag raha. Acha to fir ye yellow..... Na, ye bhi acha nahi lag raha.
Fir.... ummm.... ye dark blue... tchhh, ye to bahut hi bekar lag raha hai.


She stands with her head down, veryy sad.
Daksh enters her room quietly, picks up her white dupatta and places it on her shoulder.


Dimple:- Tum... tum yahan kya kar rahe ho. Aur fir wahi safed dupatta pakda diya tumne. Ye to tumhe acha nahi laga tha.

Daksh:- Mene sirf ye kaha tha ki ek kami hai. Dupatte me kami hai, ye kab kaha mene. Aaj bhi tum utni hi buddhu ho (he smiles at her)

Dimple:- Ohhh haaan. Me buddhu hi theek hoon warna tum apni samajhdaari ka use kese karoge, hehehe. Acha ab batao, kya kami hai.


Daksh turns her towards the mirror. He picks up a small black bindi from her drawer and places it on her forehead, right between her eyebrows.


Daksh wraps his hands around her waist and whispers in her ear, "Ab sab poora hai. Ye kaali bindi bahut janchti hai tum par. Ye mera lagaya hua kaala tika hai tumhaare liye, taaki tumhe kisi ki nazar na lage"

Dimple is just looking at his eyes in the mirror.

Daksh:- Ab me bhi shikaayat kar sakta hoon. Koi mujhe ghoor raha hai (he chuckles). Kya dekh rahi ho.

Dimple:- Khuli aankhon se ek khoobsurat sapna dekh rahi hoon Daksh. Meri nazron me tumhe aur tumhari nazron me khood ko dekh rahi hoon. (She replies with a deep smile)

Daksh turns her towards him,

Daksh:- Aadat daal lo miss Dimple. Abse har hakikat khwaabon jitni khoobsurat hogi.

He hugs her.
After a while,

Dimple:- Kabtak yahin rukne ka iraada hai Daksh. Chalo ab bahar, uncle bhi aane waale honge.

Daksh:- Mera bas chale to hamesha ke liye isi lamhe me reh jaun. Acha chalo, abhi ke liye jaane deta hoon.


Both arrive in the drawing room. They finished setting up the dining table for breakfast.
The door bell rings. Dimple opens the door.
It was Daksh's father.


Dimple:- Namaste uncle ji. Welcome.

Onkar ji:- Dimple beta, kesi ho tum. Bahut pyaari lag rahi ho iss rang me. Tumhe pata hai, Daksh ko ye rang bahut pasand hai.

Dimple:- Ww.. wo I mean, how surprising. Mujhe bhi ye rang pasand hai uncle (paap lagega Dimple, paap. aur jhooth bol le (she thinks))

Daksh comes and hugs his father.

Onkar ji:- Daksh, tu theek to hai na beta. Dimple ka call aaya tabhi laga tha mujhe ki kuch to baat hai. Bhagwaan ka shukar hai ki tu theek hai.

Onkar ji to Dimple:- Dimple beta, samajh nahi aa raha ki tumhe kin shabdon me shukriya kahun. Mere bete ka dhyan rakhne ke liye thank you beta.

Dimple:- Aap mujhe beta bhi keh rahe hain aur thank you bolkar paraya bhi kar rahe hain.

Ram enters the scene and he touches the feet of Onkar ji for his blessings.

Onkar ji:- Jeete raho beta.

Dimple:- Uncle, ye mera best friend, Ram. Ham dono DITM me saath hi hain.

Onkar ji:- Ohh acha acha. Bahut sanskaari ladka hai.

Meenakshi aunty enters the scene.

Meenakshi aunty:- Namaste bhaisahab. Me Dimple ki mummy. Aap khade kyun hain, please have a seat.

After all the greetings and the breakfast,

Daksh:- Dad, aapko yaad hai jab me hostel me tha, me aapko kisi ke baare me bahut kahaniyaan sunaata tha. Ye wahi hain, meri Meenu maa.

Onkar ji:- Kyaaa. Ye baat tum mujhe ab bata rahe ho. To matlab Dimple wahi ladki hai jiske baare me tumne bataya tha.

Daksh:- Umm Dad (He refuses his dad to say anything about Dimple by his expression) Haan dad meri best friend, mene bataya tha na aapko.


Onkar ji:- Meenakshi ji, aapko har roz yaad karta tha ye. Bahut baatein karta tha aapke baare me. Daksh ki mom milne bhi aayi thi hostel me Dimple se. Par Daksh ne bataya ki wo mil hi nahi paayi aur achanak se wapas aa gayi. Raaste me accident ho gaya. Badkismati hi thi ki wo mulaakaat bhi adhuri reh gayi aur jab tak Daksh laut kar aaya aap bhi wahan se jaa chuke the.
Bahut pata lagaane ki koshish ki thi mene, par apne bete ki hansi jo lauta sake use dhoond hi nahi saka.
Mujhe khushi hai ki me aapse mil paaya.


Meenakshi aunty:- Bahut afsos hua Daksh ki mummy ke baare me sunke. Hostel se achanak Daksh ko ghar bulaya gaya tha par wajah nahi batayi gayi thi. Me rukna chahti thi uske laut aane tak par prescribed date par joining lena mandatory tha. Kismat ke bhi ajeeb khel hain. Mujhe khushi hai ki waqt ne fir hame ek doosre ke saamne laa diya.


After a lot of chit-chat and emotional talks, it was finally the time to leave.

Onkar ji:- Meenakshi ji ab ham chalte hain. Aap Dimple ko lekar ghar zarur aaiyega. Wo aap hi ka ghar hai. Mujhe ummeed hai ki dono parivaar milte rahenge.

Meenakshi aunty:- Bilkul bhaisahab. Waqt nikaalkar ham zarur ayenge. Daksh tum apna dhyan rakhna.

Daksh touches her feet.

Daksh to Ram and Dimple:- Dimple, Ram, tum dono bhi saath hi chalo. Me Institute hi to jaa raha hoon. Ham saath chal sakte hain.

Dimple:- Nahi Daksh, tum chale jaao. Ham thodi der me aa jaayenge.

Daksh:- Acha. Wo actually me room me kuch bhool gaya. Abhi lekar aata hoon. Tum dad ke saath jaao zara bahar tak, me abhi aaya.

Dimple:- Ok.

Daksh came after a while. Before Dimple could see it, he hid something in the car.

Dimple:- Kya bhool gaye the? Mil gaya ya me help karun.

Daksh:- Haan, bas kuch tha, mil gaya. Don't worry.

Daksh and Onkar takes her leave.
On their way to Institute,

Onkar ji:- Tumne mujhe kuch bolne kyun nahi diya Daksh. Tumhe Dimple pasand hai na aur kitne saalon baad mili hai tumhe. Me aaj hi tumhare liye Dimple bitiya ka rishta maang leta.

Daksh:- Mom ko hamaare baare me nahi pata hai dad. Me khud unhe sach batana chahta hoon. Bahut jald bata doonga. Fir aap taiyaari kijiyega, aapki mannat poori hone waali hai dad (he chuckles)

Onkar ji:- Me bahut khush hoon tum dono ke liye. Aur abhi se kaan kholkar sunn lo, me Dimple ki team me hoon aaj se. Use zara bhi tang mat karna.

Daksh:- Waah dad, aapne to abhi se team badal li.


Both chuckles.

At Dimple's home, in her room,

Dimple to self:- Meri diary mil kyun nahi rahi hai. Mujhe ache se yaad hai mene yahin rakhi thi. Kahan gayi🤔


Dimple went to drawing room where Jaan and Ram are sitting.

Ram:- Aesa kya dhoond rahi ho tum. Do minute, do minute karke 20 minute ho gaye hain. Ham college ke liye late ho jaayenge.

Dimple:- Ram, meri diary nahi mil rahi hai. Mene room me hi rakhi thi. Tumne kahin dekhi kya?

Ram:- Diary kahan jayegi Dimple🤦‍♂️. Tum kahin aur rakh kar bhool gayi ho. Wapas aane ke baad dhoond lena. Ab chalo bhi.

Dimple:- Haan ho sakta hai me rakh kar bhool gayi. Chalo aane ke baad dekhti hoon. Bye jaan, shaam ko milte hain.

Meenakshi aunty:- Ek minute ruko guddu. Ye lunch box lekar jaao.


**Sorry to my readers for publishing this next part into pieces like this. First part of Dinner date is under story section. Second part is 10.a and third part is 10.b. I am having trouble posting it under stories section. Even after typing the half of the story in drafts, I had to discard it because it couldn't be saved. It shows url not allowed 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️I mean even after typing in your own drafts section, the problem still persists. So, this was the only way out😬
