Chapter 8b

Nahiii. 

Maanvi. Maanvi. Maanu. Maanvi. Maanvi. Maanu. Maanu. Maanvi. Maanvi. 

M:Viraat. 

He ran to her and caught her on time. 

V:Maanvi. Please apni aankhein na band karna kuch nahi hoga. Main kuch nahi hone doon ga.

Jeevika:Maanu tu himmat na harna. Tu thek ho jai gi.

Maanvi was having difficulty in breathing. 

M:Viraa-Viraa-viraat

V:Haan bolo Maanvi.

M:Main-Mere-Bach-Bache ko kuch na hone dena- Usse-Usse bacha lena.

V:Tum aisa kyun bol rahi ho. Goli tumhari baazo pe lagi hai. Bache ko kuch ho hi nahi sakta.

Dabbu:Nahi jiju woh.

Viraat: Kya Dabbu.

Maanvi: Na-Nahi Dabbu. Tu-tu nahi batai ga.

Jeevika: Kya baat hai dabbu.

Dabbu: Woh di.

Maanvi: Tujh-Tujhe meri kasam-Kasam hai.

Viraat: Chup karo Maanvi. Tum bolo kya baat hai.

Beeji: Bol dabbu. Kya chuppa raha hai tu.

Maanvi: Nahi

Jeevika: Tu ruk Maanu.

Viren: Bolo dabbu. 

Dabbu: Woh jiju. Sorry Maanvi di main aapki kasam tor raha hu per teh batana zaruri hai.

Jeevika: Jaldi bol dabbu.

Dabbu: Main Maanvi di ko aur kahin se nahi doctor ke clinic se lekar aaya hu. Unki haalat kharab thi. Us waqt toh nahi pocha per woh jab ab mujhe mili toh docor unse baat kar rahi thi keh woh yeh cheez aap sab se na chipai.

Viraat: Kya Maanvi.

Dabbu: Woh nahi batai gi aur shaid issi lie woh aapko phir chor ke ja rahi thi.

Jeevika: Bol de ab dabbu.

Dabbu: Maanvi di ki pregnancy main complications hai unke cancer ki wajah se. Unka bacha abnormal paida ho sakta hai ya miscarriage bhi. Aur inki jaan ko bhi khatra hai. Doctor inko abort karne ka bhi bol rahi thi.

Viraat was unable to think anything more than this. He could not understand why did not he felt the pain Maanvi was going through. He was completely broken from inside not because of Maanvi but because he was so immersed in his own sadness that he did not understand Maanvi's feelings. His guilt was killing him. 

Maanvi: Mujhe kuch ho na ho mere bache ko kuch na hone dena.

Viren: Maanvi tumhe sirf baazo pe goli lagi hai jo hald hi thek ho jai gi. Tum bus aankhein band na karna warna behosh ho jao gi. 

Beeji: Hamein der nahi karni chahiye isse jald hi doctor ke pass lekar jaana hoga. 

They went to the hospital. 

Maanvi was still feeling short of breath but she did not close her eyes throughout as she was continuously staring at Viraat. While he was holding her possessively without looking at her because of his guilt. 

Beeji: Doctor ko bulai. Meri beti ko goli lagi hai.

Nurse: Goli lagi hai. Kahan lagi hai.

Chachi: Bazoo main.

Nurse: Acha toh yeh police case hai hum iss main kuch nahi kar sakte.

Jeevika: Aare aise kaise kuch nahi kar sakte. Meri maanu ko goli lagi hai aur aap keh rahi hain kuch nahi kar sakte. 

Nurse: Hum sach main kuch nahi kar sakte. 

Viren: Illaj toh shoru kijiye.

Nurse: Yeh accident tha?

Viren and Viraat looked at each other and then Maanvi who was trying her level best to keep conscious.

Maanvi: Haan nurse yeh- yeh accident tha. Aap illaj shoru kijie aur- aur mere bache ko

Nurse: Yeh pregnant hain.

Jeevika: Ji haan aur agar aapki formalities ho gai ho toh please doctor ko bulaiye.

Nurse: Main abhi bulati hu.

In a few minutes doctor came. Maanvi was taken into operation theatre to remove the bullet.

Outside everyone was very tensed thinking about Maanvi and the baby. 

Jeevika excused herself and went to the place of worship. Viren also did the same and went to the cliff where it all happened. Viraat went outside the hospital without saying anything.

Chachi: Beeji yeh sab kahan chale gai.

Beeji: Teenon maanvi ki haalat ke zimedaar khud ko maante hain. Kissi apne ko aise haalat main dekhna kitna dukh deta hai uss ka andaza nahi hai. 

Dabbu: Beeji toh ab kya hoga.

Beeji: Bahar ki nafrat se zyada andar dil ki lagi aag zyada nuksaan deti hai. Dua karo Maanvi thek ho jai aur teenon main se koi bhi koi galat kaam na kare.

Teri nigahoon ke

Teri hi raho ke

Karib se gai zindagi

Tujhe kyun dekha na

Tujhe yu jaana na

Shikatein karo ya nahi

Tumhi yeh saansein

Bhari hai yeh aankein

Saho kaise ab yeh fasla

Bin tere 

bin tere 

bin tere

Koi khalish hai hawaoon main bin tere

Bin tere 

bin tere 

bin tere

Koi khalish hai hawaoon main bin tere

Kuch bacha hi nahi darmiayan

Saansein leti hai ab yeh dooriyaan

Dil nahi jaanta raho main

Haath se haath choote the kahan

Kyun nazar ke kinare

Toote hai sab khawab saare tu bata

Suna suna sama hi

Khali khali jahan hai ab mere

Bin tere 

bin tere 

bin tere

Koi khalish hai hawao mein bin tere

Bin tere 

bin tere 

bin tere 

Koi khalish hai hawao main bin tere
