Hello! *waves* Don't worry...I'm done for the night...I was actually supposed to be asleep 35 mins ago! 😆 Anyways...here's another Meet one shot. I love this song SOO much! 😳 And yesterday I had Radz and Bhav listen to them...different versions though, so while Bhav said to do the other one for Premeer (which I did) Radz said to do this happy version for Meet and so here it is! 😃 Dedicated specially to Radzie for always supporting me through all the shots and for proof reading them for me! *hugs*
Meher finished putting away her clothes in the cupboard after the laundry and just sat on the bench wondering how her life had gotten so complicated.
She loved Harman who loved Maya and Preet loved Ashlesha who was going to be married to Prem jiju who loved Heer di.
Yet she and Preet ended up being the ones who got married.
Kyun Pholon Ke
Khile Khile Rang Ud Gaye
The day he had asked her—she knew she had no choice but to say yes. She didn't want to cause any more pain to anyone but she had never thought about the pain she caused her cousin Ashlesha.
Kyun In Dino
Khud Se Rehti Hoon Mein Khafa Khafa
Khafa Khafa
She hated herself for taking away her sister's love. She was surprised that she was thinking about this stuff 8 months after the marriage but seeing Ashlesha again after so long had evoked the feelings back in her heart.
She hated seeing the pain in Ash's eyes every time they stopped on Preet; but even more than that she hated the way HER heart ached seeing him stare back at Ash with no expression. Was that longing or did he finally accept what had happened?
She had to admit; Preet had never made Meher feel that she was a burden in his life. Always making her smile, taking her out for dinner. He was treating her just like a man should treat his wife.
There was only one thing missing.
Love.
Tere Mere Takraro Se
Bana Dil Ka Yeh Ristha Hai
They were connected at the heart, she knew about that. Even if she couldn't be the one to help him heal his heart after everything he had certainly done that for her.
Meher had been broken when she found out Harman left her for Maya and her money but Preet had been there to pick up her pieces and put them together again.
Aaina Jo Mein Dekhu To
Tera Chehra Hi Dhikta Hai
Jab Se Mujhse Tu Mili
He flipped the paperweight over and over in his hands as he looked out the huge glass window. The rain was tracing patterns on the window as he sat there looking completely bored. He sighed as he stood up and stretched his arms over top of his head.
He walked around aimlessly in his much-too-big cabin. Just because he was Prem's younger brother didn't mean he had to have a cabin of the same size. It's not like Preet ever did any work at the office. He was always off in daydreams of everything but more frequently they were of his wife.
Jaane Kaise Mulakaton Mein
Yunhi Aisi Waise Baaton Mein
He was beginning to notice all the little habits she had. Biting her lip when she was nervous. Tugging on the ends of her dupatta when she didn't know what else to do.
He smiled as he remembered the way her eyes would get big every time he blatantly flirted with her.
Although that had all stopped now that Ashlesha was back in the house.
Kare Chote Mote Wade The
Isi Chote Se Bahane Se
Pakke Tujhe Kho Diya
He knew he had made promises to her; promises he was forced to break. But none of that was in his control yet there was no way to get Ash to understand. He still cared about her deeply. She was a very important girl in his life but now—his priorities changed.
He was married to a girl he had grown to love.
Meri Hi Hai Khata
Meri Hi Hai Saja
Phir Bhi Dil Kahe
Yeh Kyun Hua
Love? Did he actually admit that in his head?
Kyun In Dino
Khud Se Rehta Hoon Mein Khafa Khafa
Khafa Khafa
Now—he needed to tell her. Tell his wife of 8 months that he loved her. Nothing hard right?
WRONG.
Meher loved Harman Bhai.
Kyun Pholon Ke
Ude Ude Rang Ud Khile
All of a sudden he sat down. His heart felt heavy. He couldn't tell his wife anything. Not when she was still in love with his brother.
He could see the longing way she looked at him. He just wished everything that happened after PB's trip to Delhi was gone. His PB would be okay, Harman would never have ran off to be with Maya and Preet would still be with Ash.
Kyun Pholon Ke
Ude Ude Rang Ud Khile
Maybe everything except the last part. He loved Ash before he was sure of it, but now that he thought back to their relation. There was never anything more than friendship. What he felt about Meher was completely different than Ash.
His heart never raced when he saw Ash. He never felt speechless when she came in front of him drying her wet hair. He never felt his heart ache whenever she hurt herself like he did when he was around Meher.
That was L-O-V-E.
Meri Hi Hai Khata
Meri Hi Hai Saja
Phir Bhi Dil Kahe
Yeh Kyun Hua
Meher stood at the entrance of the house. She had something to say to Preet and if he declined or refused she had her bag packed ready to leave the house forever.
Kyun In Dino
Khud Se Rehti Hoon Mein Khafa Khafa
Khafa Khafa
The car pulled up in the driveway and Meher's heart started beating faster.
Her husband stepped out of the car running his hand through his hair and she rushed forward.
"Mujhe tumse kuch kehna hain,"
"Mujhe bhi tumse kuch kehna hain," Preet stated.
Kyun Pholon Ke
Khile Khile Rang Ud Gaye
Meher smiled as she saw the faint stubble on Preet's adorable face. She reached out and gently stroked it. "Preet...mujhe pyar hogaya hain,"
His heart stopped. What could she mean? "Kya?"
She smirked as she saw the expression on his face. He always thought he was the only one who could make me squirm. She nodded solemnly. "Mujhe tumse pyar hogaya hain,"
Preet took a moment to understand her words before he swept her into his arms. "Mujhe aaj tumse yahi kehna tha,"
Kyun Pholon Ke
Ude Ude Rang Ud Khile
Meher didn't know why but hearing him admit that made her cheeks tint pink. Their love was mutual.
She took his arm as she led him into the house. He stepped inside with her and she tried to take him past her suitcase but he wouldn't budge.
"Yeh kya hain?" he raised his eyebrow at her.
"Suitcase hain Preet," Meher rolled her eyes as she tried to pull him away.
"Woh to mujhe bhi maloom hain Meher, lekin yeh yahaan kyun hain?"
"Woh...woh...agar tum mera pyar inkaar kar dete to main jaanewali thi," She said quickly keeping her eyes on the tiles.
Preet couldn't help but smile and laugh. He used his finger to make her look back up at him. "Aye haye Mrs. Preet Juneja. Jab aap muskurati hain na? To bahot hi haseen lagti hain,"
"Preet—flirt karna baand karo!" Meher grinned as she ran away from him and waited for him to come after her.
The question 'kyun,' really did apply to their lives but right now...they were both too happy with each other to even bother learning the answer to it.
So how was it? 😳 Hope everyone enjoyed reading it! 😳
Love,
Meera😳
