Chapter 42

Damini's POV



" Wait Sahil, I am not getting anything. "

" It's ok, I am sorry. Samar, please go and enjoy your party. Sorry, I behaved like that. I just need to go home. To Delhi, I am needed there."

I was looking at him with tear filled eyes. But, he just gave me a look and said that he was needed there. I wanted to stop him.

" Is everything alright? You look very tense? Tell me, if you are angry with me, bhai?? "

" No everything is fine. Mom is alone at home as dad and Sahil had to go out of Delhi all of a sudden. And I need to go. "

" Do you want me to come? "

" Oh no, you stay here. You are needed here. " He said and patted on his shoulder and went out.

He went out of the party. He was going to Delhi, I wanted to stop him but didn't as his family needed him. I was confused, what should I do. I was surely going to miss him.

Oh, God!!!!!

He was going to Delhi. Alone?? He is mad at me, he is not in his right frame of mind. He can't drive, I ran after him. But he was not there, He had gone.

Samar came after me.

" What happened? Why are you so tense? Did anything happen that I don't know? "

" Samar, I need to talk to him. "

" What happened?? "

" Please, we need to stop him. "

" What happened ?? "

" We need to stop him. He can not go like this. "

" Damini, what are you talking about? "

" Stop him, call him back, please do anything. Call him back. We need to stop him. He can't go to Delhi like this. "

" Ok, I will call him. " He called but the phone was switched off.

" His phone is switched off. "

" Call, Sagar. "

" Sagar?? But why Sagar? "

" Because he was Sagar. "

" He was Sahil. "

" No, he was Sagar. Please do something, Samar. Sagar must not drive. " I said

" Oh, God !! Shit! Don't panic! I will call him. " He called Sagar, but he didn't pick up the phone.

" He is not picking up the phone. " Samar said.

" What do I do now?? " I was thinking aloud.

" Calm down !! He is not picking up the phone. Let's not disturb him again, while he is driving. I will call the Guesthouse and ask if he is there. " I just nodded.

He inquired and came to know that Sagar had already gone in a cab.

I was scared for him.

" So he was Sagar?? "

" Hmmm... "

" When did you got to know? "

" Yesterday evening. "

" Don't worry. He will be fine. These brothers... Always play this game. I wish I knew he was Sagar. "

" What do you mean? " I asked him and when he was about to speak, Uncle called us. He wanted me to meet some of his friends.

Samar apologized with his eyes. After the party was over, he dropped me at the guest house.

Sagar's POV

I was in her room when someone knocked. I was about to open the door when she stopped me and asked me to go to the balcony. I went there but was irritated as how does it matter if someone sees us together.

It was her uncle who had come to pick up her personally for the Holi party. She refused to go saying that she was not feeling well but he insisted her to come.

We came to the party with Mr Mathur. Samar was with his friends but he came towards us.

Happy Holi, Sahil. " He said as he thought I was Sahil.

" Happy Holi, Samar. " I gave a faint smile to him. "

" Happy Holi, Damini. " Samar said hesitantly. It was a bit awkward moment.

" Same to you. " She said with a fake, faint smile.

" What is this Samar... Apply colour on Damini's face as well. " Uncle said.

I clenched my fist as uncle said that. I didn't like the idea of Damini playing Holi with him. I wanted to do that for years.

I was relaxed when Damini said she can't play Holi as she had some medical problem. I knew she was lying. Thank God, Mr Mathur believed her and he went away.

Samar apologized on the behalf of her dad and applied a small amount of colour on her face. She did the same. Then we had food together. Samar and his friends dragged us with them and played Holi with us. The girls thought that I was Sahil and they kept flirting with me. While I kept avoiding them but they applied lots of colours on me. I saw that Damini was getting annoyed.

Was she getting jealous over me... The idea thrilled me and I went to wash my face as I wanted to play with my Damini. I wanted her to apply colour to me.

I came back, held her hand to pull her on one side where there was no one, slid my hand just below her ear and applied gulal on her face and neck.

" What are you doing Sagar?? "

" Playing Holi with you... "

I swear I felt her shivering at my touch. She was shocked.

" Happy Holi, love. Next year I will be the first one to apply colour on you. " I whispered near her ear. She kept looking at me.

" Won't you play Holi with me?? " I asked. She was still shocked as I was holding her.

" Why didn't you enjoy playing Holi with those girls?? They were much more interested. "

Oh, so she felt bad... Jealous??

" Jealous love?? They thought I was Sahil. " I smiled at her.

I knew that she was angry so I took another step near her and rubbed my face on her face and neck. I loved the feel of her very soft skin against my tough skin. I grinned and pecked on her lips.

" Sagar!!! " She pushed me back.

" Hmmm?? "

" Leave me.."

" No... "

" You idiot... leave me.. someone might come.. " she pushed me with might.



I was really annoyed and started going out of the party. Samar was standing there near the gate and he pulled me back.

" Oh c'mon, You can't go as yet. You can leave in an hour. " Samar said to me.

" Samar I need to go. It is urgent. "

" Ok go after half an hour. " Samar said.

I didn't want to stay but didn't want to leave her alone too. So I stayed for some more time.

The music was flowing in the air. The holi songs were playing and everyone was dancing. Samar pulled Damini and me too.

Rang barse bheege chunerwali... started playing and as Samar was in full mood of the song. He was dancing holding Damini's hand making her dance with him.

I was losing my mind. I was already angry and when I saw them dancing on that song. I lost it. The words looked real somehow.

I couldn't take it anymore, just wanted to beat him to a pulp. I pulled her hand out of his glared at him and her and then went out.

Samar was looking at me with surprise but he didn't realise what happened. Samar ran after me.

" Hey... Sahil... Wait yaar... What happened? Why are you angry? What is wrong?"

" Nothing, I need to go to home..." I said.

He tried to talk to me but I said I had to go to Delhi and I came out. I went to guest house, took the quickest shower and left for delhi.
