Roomies(Part 2)

After 20 hours, Aditi and Navya reached Mumbai. They took a deep breath as they stepped on its soil. They booked a cab.

“Bhaiya, We want to go to Galaxy apartment in Navi Mumbai,” Aditi told a cab driver.

The cab driver looked at them.

“It will cost 400 ruppes,” the cab driver said.

“What? So much?” Navya said.

“Do you think we are fools? Wait let me call my brother. He is in the media,” Aditi threatened the driver.

Aditi took out her phone and dialed one number.

“Wait, you want to go to Navi Mumbai right? Sorry I thought Bandra. It will cost 200,” the driver was shivering in fear.

“Fine,” Aditi said.

“Get in,” the driver said to them.

“What get in? Who will pick our luggage?” Aditi raised her tone.

“Okay, I am keeping,” the driver said.

“Don't even think to take us in the wrong way. I have kept the google map open,” Aditi said.

“Yes, madam,” the driver said.

“Aditi, what is this?” Navya asked.

“If you try to act weak in front of these types of men, they will dominate you,” Aditi said.

“You are the best,” Navya said.

“Yes, I know that I am the best,” Aditi showed her teeth.

They reached Galaxy apartment and Aditi called Mr. Verma, their broker who said that he was standing downstairs waiting for them.

“Aditi, I think that man with a phone is Mr. Verma,” Navya said.

“Come, let's go to him,” Aditi dragged her sister who was taking out the suitcase.

“Are you Mr. Verma? Aditi asked the person.

“Yes. You?” Mr. Verma asked.

“I am Aditi Goenka, I am the one who called you now. Remember?” Aditi said.

“Ohh!! Yesss!! Come I will show you the flat,” Mr. Verma said.

As they were going, Aditi's phone rang.

“Who is calling you?” Navya asked.

“Virat. Navya, you go I am coming in a few minutes,” Aditi told her sister.

“Third floor flat no.163,” Mr. Verma told Aditi.

Mr. Verma and Navya go into the flat.

“You keep your suitcase here, there is my man inside. He will take it,” Mr.Verma said.

As they stepped inside, Navya saw a man standing. Navya assumed him as the porter.

“Excuse me, there is my luggage outside. Go and bring it.” Navya ordered the person.

The man turns and he is Karan. He looks at Navya who too is looking at him. They share an eye lock.

Aankhon hi aankhon ne

pehle kuch din baatein ki

Baaton hi baaton ne phir

kuch din mulaqatein ki

Yun hi chalti rahe baatein

Yun hi chalta rahe silsila

Karun dua, yahi dua

Tere liye, dhadke jiya

“Are you asking me?” Karan said.

“Yes!! Is someone else here?” Navya replied.

“Madam he..,” Mr.Verma was interrupted by Navya.

“I said go and bring,” Navya ordered.

Karan goes to bring the suitcase.

“Madam he is ....”, Mr. Verma’s words were incomplete.

“What type of lazy employee you have!! Disgusting,” Navya said.

“Employee? I? I am not anyone's employee,” Karan clarified.

“What?” Navya asked.

“That's what I was trying to say to you but you were not listening to me,” Mr. Verma said.

“ I am so sorry,” Navya apologized.

“No problem! I don't mind helping beautiful girls,” Karan winked.

*********************

“Yes virat, I have reached without any problem,” Aditi said, picking up the call.

“Okay great. Even though I am coming the day after yesterday,” the person on call said.

“Why are you coming?” Aditi asked.

“Do you have any problem with that?” the person in the line said.

“No!! You can come. Okay bye! Navya is alone upstairs. I have to go now. I will call you at night. Byee,” Aditi said.

Aditi disconnects the call and while she turns, she bumps into someone and is about to fall when she feels a tight grip on her waist. The fear of falling down made her close her eyes. She with closed eyes was holding that someone's collar tightly. She opens her eyes and sees a man. He is Mohit.. They share an eye lock.

Khusboo banke hawa mein

Mehke meri fiza mein

Tu hi mere jeene ki wajah

Tu hi meri har dua mein

Yun hi chalti rahe baatein

Yun hi chalta rahe silsila

Karun dua, yahi dua

Tere liye, dhadke jiya

“I am sorry,” Mohit apologized.

“I know you cheap boys very well. Now get out of my way,” Aditi pushed Mohit.

“I helped you and you are scolding me. You are such a strange person”, Mohit said.

Aditi walks to the flat as directed by Mr. Verma. So does Mohit. They reach the entrance of the house.

“Why the hell are you following me?

“I am not following you,” Mohit replied.

“Bro, Thank God you came.” Karan sighed in relief.

“Navya, who are these boys?” Aditi asked.

“Let me tell you guys everything. I have called both parties at the same time. The rent of this house starts from Rs.10,000/-. whoever pays the more rent, the house belongs to them,” Mr. Verma kept his bargain of the deal.

“What the hell? I will lodge a complaint against you,” Aditi was angry and her anger was clearly visible in her tone.

“Aditi! Don't shout,” Navya said.

“Excuse me Aditi and..?” Mohit asked.

“Navya,” Karan said with a grin.

“How do you know our names? Are you stalkers?” Aditi asked raising her eyebrows

“Girls are so foolish...!! Just now you both addressed each other by manes,” Karan jokes.

“Listen to what I am saying​. We can share this flat. We can pay 5,000 each. We will be in profit.” Mohit said.

“Sharing a flat with boys? No ways, Aditi.” Navya yelled.

“Navya, we don't have enough cash! If we will say the house rent is 10,00, dad will force us to stay in that chipkko bhuddhi's house. Navya, I beg you please agree,” Aditi begged.

“Even you are right also. Fine, I am okay with it,” Navya said.

“Mr. Verma, we will share this flat,” Mohit said with a smile on his face.

“We will pay you 10,000/-. And if you will show any tantrums, you will go to jail, “ Aditi said.

“Yes! We four will lodge a complaint against you,” Karan said

“I don't have any problem. You can shift your luggage now,” Mr. Verma said.

“This room is ours and that room is yours. Neither we both will enter your room and nor you will enter our room,” Aditi said.

Karun duaa... Yahi dua...

Tere liye.. dhadke jiya....
