RAGHU + RAIMA + DREAM

                                             Ek Onkaar              Jai Maa Lakshami

In India, it’s Saturday, 7th Oct & time is 4:20 pm.

My Dear Friends, Followers & Well Wishers,
I am back with a “True Life Love Story” as I had promised to you all.Whether you believe me or not today I am going to narrate you a true life love story in which a common dream seen by Raghu & Raima & how that dream brought them together forever…& believe me this type of stories strengthen our believe in this wonderful & never ending relationship called “love”.

So my dear love birds here we go…

Raghu us asleep on his bed & is watching a dream & in a dream he sees that  two boys steal a bag of  a girl on their bike & he follows them on his dream bicycle, which costs Rs.70,000/-, & returns the bag to the girl, but when he was going to see her face, door bell rings & his dream breaks up & when he opens the door, it was Amar, his news paper vendor, at the door & he scolds him “Arey yaar! 5 minute baad nahi aasakte they…aaj main uska chehra dekhnewala tha, ke tumne bell baja di”, Amar replies, “Koi Fayda nahi Bhaiya, jo ladki kismet mein likhi hogi apne aap chali ayyegi…chehra dekhkar kaun sa teer maar lete aap…Baar baar ek hi sapna dekhte hain…pata nahi aisi koi ladki bhi hai ya nahi…” Raghu collects the paper from him & makes tea for himself & sits down to read the paper.  Suddenly, he remembers that today was the day when Mrs. Dessa, Psychology Professor, was going to announce the names of the partners who will be going for annual college outing, 15 days, in the next month for making a project on “Environmental Beauty”.

He charged –up himself & arrived in college gate at 8:50 am, exactly 10 minutes before classes begins, to see the love of her dreams Raima, Oh Raima! As the name itself denotes she was very elegant, graceful & well mannered girl although she was not fair but she had very beautiful & large & deep eyes & was a “sawali” girl as we call in Hindi, & Raima walked down the college gate at 8:55 am beside him & he just smiled at her & she smiled in reply & this was the only “morning wish” which was being followed by both of them during their college life & in class they never talked to each other. Now Mrs. Dessa had kept her eyes on them & perhaps, she had taken the vow of bringing them together & today when she announced the names of the partners she announced their names as partners on this upcoming project. The whole class was very happy for both of them & considered Mrs. Dessa’s decision to be very ‘wise’ & Raghu’s close friends Arjun & Amit were pulling his legs in the canteen by saying “Toh beta apni heroine ke saath annual college outing pe jayega…teri toh nikal parhi yaar…aish kar…dekhna pore 15 din sirf use hi mat dekhte rehna…” & similar was the environment at Raima’s table whre she was sitting with her friends Neha & Nisha as they were also teasing her, bur Raima was not in her natural self today & she was discussing about the same dream, which she had seen today which was similar to that of Raghu & she also could not see the face of the boy while that boy was going to return her bag to her because her mother shook her up to get-up in the morning, to this Nisha replied I had talked about your dream with my mom & she said that “some new relationship is going to start in your life very soon” & ya! don’t forget to accompany that chashmish Raghu in the “Environmental Beauty” project next month. Now she began to narrate that yesterday she saw a bag on the net & that cost of that bag was Rs.70,000/- & she wants to buy it, but she has only Rs.25,000/- in her hands & she doesn’t want to borrow from her parents. They don’t know that Raghu & his friends are listening to all this conversation nearby & they kept on talking.

5 days passed by, on the 6th day Raghu’s frinds had not came to college, so he however, gathered courage & sat in front of Raima on her table & introduced himself by name…Raima was happy to see that Raghu came forward & started the conversation. She replied “Yes! I know you Raghu, you are a college topper in Psychology” to which Raghu whispered to himself “Kahe Ka topper aaj tak tumse apne dil ki baat nahi kar paya…aur topper” & Raima heard it, but with a smile on her face she asked “You said something” to which Raghu replied “no nothing” & they began to talk about the upcoming project & their preparations for the same. Now the twist in the story is that they don’t know that Nisha & Neha were sitting nearby & listening to their talk.

Next day, it was the repetition of the same old day schedule, but today Nisha & Neha were pulling Raima’s legs in cafeteria, while Raghu & his friends Arjun & Amit wwe heppy for their friends & were enjoying Raaima & her friends conversation.

Similarly, 24 days passed by & neither Raghu nor Raima talked to each other but today Raghu had decided that he will go to her home & give her Rs.50,000/- so that she could buy her dream bag for Rs.70,000/- & he went to his home exactly at 6 pm. To his surprise, Mrs. Aruna Sharma, Raima’s Mom, opened the door & she immediately recognized him by saying “Tum Raghu ho na, Raima roz tumhare bare mein baatein karti rehti hai…aur parso tum dono project ke liye ek saath annual collge outing pe ja rahe ho 15 dino ke liye am I right?” & Raghu was both surprised & happy at this honor & treatment which was given to her by Mrs. Sharma & then he asked about Mr. Sharma & then her mother replied that Mr. Arun Sharma has passed away 2 years ago & she inquired about Raghu’s parents & Raghu replied that his parents have also passed away 1 & ½ years ago & he has an elder brother Raj Verma & Ramya Verma  Bhabhi  at home & that we have our own kids garment store at City Mall, one of the most luxurious mall of the town & while Mrs. Sharma was looking after Naina, ladies boutique store, which was set-up by both of them because they knew that one day Raima will go another home after getting married… so it was like a happy go lucky situation for both Shramas & Vermas.

She called Raima to hall & went in kitchen to make something for them although she had many servants at home but for Raghu she herself made Suji Ka Halwa & strong coffee as was demanded by him during that brief conversation. While Raima was climbing down the stair case, Raghu was staring at her “uninterruptedly” without even blinking his eyes. Now Raima was in all smiles for him & as she approached him, Raghu said bit loudly “Aaj Bahut Khoobsurat lag rahi ho” as she was wearing silver white colored salwar-kameez & had taken black chunri on her shoulders with a red bindi on her forehead & sky blue colored lipstick on her lips. It was just like a big “vow” for Raghu & Raima quickly replied “Kya keh rahe ho maa sunlegi” with that killer smile on her face, well Raghu came to the point very quickly & he put forward a proposal before her I have brought Rs.50,000/- which I have saved for my dream bicycle & I want you to buy  your dream bag for yourself & I will give you the remaining amount once we return from our college outing, but the twist is that during these outing days you have to behave with me as if you are my girl friend as my friends Arjun & Amit both pull my legs saying that “Tujh jaise chasmish ke saath akun si ladki pyaar karegi…& I want to show to them that a boy like me can also have girl friend”. As soon as Raghu finished up his speech at one go, Mrs. Sharma entered the hall with breakfast & they had casua talk & then Raghu went home. At night when, Raima opened that money envelope, she found letter addressed to her in which Raghu had opened every secret of his heart to her & requested her to call him up at 9:30 pm as that was the time when he would be all alone his room right in front of his laptop surfing the net.

Now what will Raima do will she ring-up Raghu or will he have sleepless night waiting for her call all night…do come tomorrow to know about this unseen love…
