Sorry for any kind of mistake in advance.

PART - 17

Next Day

Today team is very happy because finally their Arjun sir is coming home. In evening after completing their duty… Sameer, Shree and Chotu went to the hospital to complete the formality while other members are at Arjun’s home and doing preparations to welcome Arjun. Living room is well arranged for his welcome. Liza and Ayaan are making a rangoli of flower petals. Soon Sakshi and Aisha join them.

AISHA: Wow… yeh toh bohat khoobsurat hai…

AYAAN: Papa ko bhi accha lagega naa?

SAKSHI: Ofcourse accha lagega… unke prince ne apne pyaare pyaare haathon se jo banaya hai…

LIZA: Kisi ka koi call aaya? kab aa rahe hai vo?

AISHA: Rathod sir ka phone aaya tha… hospital se toh nikal gaye the so I guess pohchne hi wale honge…

SAKSHI: Liza tu bhi naa… tujhe Aisha ko direct yahi puchhna chahiye ki usko uske Rathod sir ka phone aaya yaa nahi… Aisha ko uske Rathod sir ke allawa koi aur phone kaha karta hai…

Liza laughs and shared hifived with Sakshi.

AISHA: Aisa kuch nahi hai…

AYAAN: Kyun? aap ko mere big dad pasand nahi hai?

Aisha see him with big eyes while Sakshi and Liza starts giggling.

AYAAN: Bolo naa bua…

SAKSHI: Haan haan jawab do Aisha… Ayaan kuch puch raha hai

AISHA: A..n…nahi…me…

AYAAN: Nahi pasand?

AISHA: Nahi nahi… pasand hai…

Ayaan, Sakshi and Liza see her with excitement.

LIZA/SAKSHI: Pasand hai?

AYAAN: Sach mein? aap ko big dad pasand hai?

AISHA: Mera matlab…

Suddenly they heard the car’s horn. Aisha take a sigh of relief and quickly said to change the topic,

AISHA: Arjun sir aa gaye…

All look outside and see the Etf SUV. Big smile spread on everyone’s face. Sameer and Chotu help Arjun to come out. Shree placed the wheelchair near him and Arjun sit in wheelchair. Ayaan run outside and hug his father.

AYAAN: Welcome dad…

ARJUN: Thank you

AYAAN: Ab jaldi chaliye aap ke liye ek surprise hai…

Arjun nods with smile. They all headed towards doorstep. Arjun looked at Rangoli of flowers. “Welcome Home” is written with flowers inside a round design which is also made by colourful flower petals.

AYAAN: Kaisa laga?

ARJUN: Bohat accha hai… I loved it…

AYAAN: Maine aur Liza Maasi ne banaya…

Arjun look at Liza and she said with smile,

LIZA: Welcome sir

ARJUN: Thank you liza

Arjun now turn towards Aisha and Sakshi. Aisha is standing holding a thaali.

ARJUN: Aisha yeh sab…

AISHA: Aap ke welcome ke liye… after all aap kitne dino baad ghar wapas aaye hai…

Aisha come forwards and do aarti first. Then she apply tilak on his forehead.

AISHA: Welcome Arjun Sir

ARJUN: Thank you so much Aisha…

They all enter in living room. Arjun is feeling so nice seeing his home. He is missing his home so much. He noticed all things are very well arranged and some of the place has a decoration of flowers.

AYAAN: Accha hai naa? yeh sab maine aur Bua ne decorate kiya hai

ARJUN: Hmmm… maine nahi socha tha ki mera itna accha welcome hoga… thank you Aisha

AISHA: Iss me thank you kaisa?! Hum sab itne khush hai ki yeh sab arrangements kar ke bhi apni khushi ko poori tarah define nahi kar paa rahe hai…

AYAAN: Angel jaldi se next surprise leke aauo naa…

ARJUN: Ab aur kya surprise hai?

AYAAN: Abhi aap ko pata chal jaayega… Angel jaauo naa

SAKSHI: Haan laa rahi hoon…

Sakshi went into kitchen and soon come out with cake. She place the cake on coffee table. “Welcome Arjun” is written on it.

AYAAN: Angel ne apne haathon se banaya hai yeh cake… aap ke welcome ke liye…

ARJUN: Iss sab ki…

SAKSHI: Zaroorat thi… itna celebration toh banta hai naa tumhare ghar aane ki khushi me…

SAMEER: Haan ab chal jaldi se cake cut kar aur hum sab ka muh meetha karwa…

Arjun nods. He signal Ayaan to come near him. He give knife in Ayaan’s hand and then hold his hand. They both together cut the cake and first feed each other and then Arjun offer cake to everyone. After cake cutting they all had a dinner with some cold drinks. Now everyone are in living room.

SHREE: Waah maza aa gaya… aur kya swadist chhole bane the…

Aisha and Sakshi see each other and then said,

AISHA: Accha? Itne pasand aaye?

SHREE: Haan… agar thode aur hote toh vo saare bhi me hi kha jaata

SAKSHI: it’s ok… jab bhi mann kare naa toh Liza ko bol dena… vo tumhe bana ke degi…

SHREE: Liza?

AISHA: Haan usne hi banaye the chhole

Shree looked at Liza. She passed a sweet smile to him and Shree makes face.

SAMEER: Cake bhi bohat tasty tha tweety

SAKSHI: Thank you bunny

ARJUN: Ho gaya inka shuru… tweety… bunny…

Arjun said making face.

SAKSHI: Tumhe isse kya problem hai

SAMEER: Isko naa abhi bhi humari friendship se jalan hoti hai… jaise bachpan me jalta tha waise hi…

ARJUN: O hello… mujhe koi jalan walan nahi hoti… atleast me tum dono ki tarah pagal toh nahi hoon naa… itne bade hoke bhi cartoons se bahar nahi aaye ho

SAMEER/SAKSHI: Shut up noodle

Both said together throwing astern glare at him which makes Ayaan and team giggle. Arjun ignore them and said with smile.

ARJUN: But seriously, thank you so much everyone… aap sab ne inn dino mein mere aur Ayaan ke liye bohat kuch kiya hai

CHOTU: Sir kaisi baat kar rahe hai aap! Apno ko koi thanks bolta hai kya… vo problem sirf aap ki nahi humari bhi thi

SHREE: Exactly aur aap hume sahi salamat wapas mil gaye wahi humare liye bohat hai…

Sakshi check the time.

SAKSHI: Shree Chotu ab hume nikalna chahiye…

AYAAN: Aap kaha jaa rahe ho Angel?

SAKSHI: Ghar aur kaha

AYAAN: Aap toh ghar pe hi hona…

SAKSHI: Mera matlab tha ki mere ghar… ab toh aap ke papa ghar aa gaye hai naa toh hum sab wapas apne ghar jaa rahe hai

This makes Ayaan stunned. He see whole team and then Sakshi.

AYAAN: Kyun? aap nahi jaa sakte Angel… me aap ko nahi jaane dunga… aap sab yahi rahoge mere saath

Sakshi and team exchange look.

SAKSHI: Jaana toh padega naa Ayaan… hum yaha nahi reh sakte

Ayaan quickly goes near her and hold her hand tightly.

AYAAN: Nahi… me aap ko nahi jaane dunga… aap ko yaha mere pass hi rehna padega (To etf team) aur aap sab bhi yahi rahenge…

ARJUN: Ayaan aise nahi kehte… jaise aap ke papa ghar aaye hai waise inhe bhi toh ghar jaana hai… aap apne ghar ko miss karte hai waise yeh log bhi apne ghar ko miss kar rahe hai

AYAAN: Lakin Big Dad ne kaha tha ki yeh ghar inn sab ka bhi ghar hai phir kisi aur jagah jaane ki kya zaroorat hai… mujhe sab ke saath rehna accha lagta hai…

ARJUN: Sab sirf ghar se jaa rahe hai… vo aap ko milne toh aate hi rahenge…pehle bhi toh aisa hi hota tha naa

AISHA: Haan Ayaan… itne din toh aap ke papa nahi the iss liye hum yaha reh rahe the taaki aap akela feel naa kare lakin ab toh aap ke papa aa gaye hai toh aap akele thodi hai

AYAAN: Par phir bhi kyun jaana hai aap ko? Aap sab papa ke saath kyun nahi reh sakte? Jaise mujhe accha lagta hai waise aap rahenge toh papa ko bhi accha lagega…

SHREE: Haan toh hum weekend pe get together plan karenge naa… Weekend pe sab wapas saath rahenge lakin abhi toh hume jaana padega... sorry Ayaan...

Ayaan become sad. Liza cupped his face and said,

LIZA: Baby aise upset mat hoiiye naa… aap ka sad face dekh ke hum kaise jaayenge

AYAAN: Tab toh me sad hi rahunga Maasi phir aap nahi jaauoge

Arjun turn Ayaan towards him and said,

ARJUN: Ayaan aise zid nahi karte… maine aap ko sikhaya hai naa ki bado ki baat manna chahiye

SAMEER: Aur phir me kaha jaa raha hoon… me toh yahi ruk raha hoon… in fact maine toh work from home ke liye application bhi diya hai toh jab bhi case nahi hoga aur me free rahunga tab yaha aa jaaunga aur yaha se apne kaam kar lunga… hum naa ek kaam karenge… kal subah hum aap ke dad ke liye time table banayenge aur hum do no saath milke unka dhyaan rakhenge aur bohat masti bhi karenge… phir Etf se free hote hi yeh sab bhi kuch der yaha aa jaayenge…

SAKSHI: Bunny is right… itne din papa nahi the toh aap unhe miss kar rahe the naa… ab aap papa ke saath rahiye aur bohat saari masti kijiye

Ayaan said nothing. Arjun think something seeing his sad face and then said,

ARJUN: Accha theek hai… yeh log nahi jaayenge

Ayaan become happy and team see him with surprise.

AYAAN: Yay… thank you Dad… (To team) ab aap sab nahi jaa sakte… dad aap ko nahi jaane denge...

Ayaan almost starts jumping with excitement while team exchange look. Arjun hold Ayaan and said,

ARJUN: Pehle poori baat suniye Ayaan… yeh log aaj raat yahi rukenge lakin kal unhe jaana padega…

AYAAN: Lakin dad....

ARJUN: Maine kaha naa… ab aur zid nahi… me samjh sakta hoon ki aap inn sab se bohat pyaar karte ho aur unke saath rehna chahte ho lakin inn sab ki apni life hai aur hum uss me interfere nahi kar sakte… unhe aur bhi bohat saare kaam hote hai…

Ayaan’s face become dull.

CHOTU: Ayaan hum sab promise karte hai ki roz aap se milne aayenge aur kabhi kabhi aap Etf aa jaana… jaise hum pehle milte the waise hi milte rahenge

AISHA: Chotu sahi keh raha hai… hum sab promise karte hai

AYAAN: Pakka wala promise?

TEAM: Ekdam pakka wala promise

LIZA: Ab toh aap happy ho naa?

Ayaan smiles and nods in yes. Ayaan hold Sakshi’s hand and Sakshi see him with smile.

AYAAN(Thought): Kal subah me wapas sad ho jaaunga phir papa inhe phir se rok lenge...me naa apni angel ko aur baaki family ko kahin nahi jaane dunga… inke saath hi rahunga humesha…

Other side team and Arjun smile seeing him happy. They keep talking on random topics for some time while Arjun’s gaze get fixed on Sakshi and Ayaan. Ayaan stay with Sakshi all the time holding her hand tightly. Sameer notice the Arjun and follow his gaze and understand the scene.

SAMEER: Ayaan dekho sone ka time ho raha hai… chaliye hum change kar lete hai tab tak aap ki bua aap ke liye hot chocolate le aayegi

AYAAN: Ok… (To Arjun) Dad aap bhi chalo

ARJUN: Aap Big Dad ke saath jaauo me aata hoon…

Ayaan nods and Sameer take Ayaan in his room while Aisha went into kitchen.

CHOTU: Chal Shree thodi der walk kar ke aate hai

SHREE: Ok

LIZA: Specky ruko… mere laptop me ek problem aa gaya hai toh chalo aur theek kar do…

Liza said in odering tone.

SHREE: O hello… Me tumhe computer theek karne wala lag raha hoon?! agar help chahiye toh thoda pyaar aur izzat se bolo…

LIZA: Pyaar aur izzat chahiye toh pehle accha kaam kar lo ok?

Sakshi and Chotu shook their head in disbelief while Arjun see them with smile as he was missing Shriza’s cute fight. Shree glared at her and take a step to go saying,

SHREE: Chotu chal

LIZA: Zyada bhav mat khauo aur chalo chup chap

SHREE: Maine kaha naa help chahiye toh acche se bolo… in fact me toh kehta hoon tumhe mujhse request karna chahiye…

LIZA: Request?! Really?! Dekho specky jyada hawa me mat udo tum… tumhare parr katna mujhe acche se aata hai

SHREE: Theek hai… chal naa Chotu khada kya hai… hume jaana hai walk pe

Shree starts walking and makes Chotu walk with him. Liza makes face seeing him leaving the room. as she has no other option she said,

LIZA: Oyye Specky please help yaar… mujhe ek book padhna hai aur uski copy mere laptop me hi saved hai…

Shree stops and turned back.

SHREE: Specky ke baad kya bola tumne? Kuch sunayi nahi diya

LIZA: Please help

SHREE: Thodi aur zor se bolna

Liza is having hard time to control her anger. She said giving sarcastic smile,

LIZA: Specky please help kar do

SHREE: Chotu tu koi specky ko jaanta hai kya?

CHOTU: Ab kyun sata raha hai… jab itna keh rahi hai toh kar dena help

Shree glared at him and said in complaining tone,

SHREE: Tu naa side mat badal Chotu…

CHOTU: Aree

LIZA: It’s ok Chotu… (Looking at Shree) Shree please meri help kar do…

Shree said with winning smile.

SHREE: Hmmm ab hui naa baat…

Shree see her and starts thinking something.

LIZA: Ab soch kya rahe ho chalo

SHREE: Vo me soch raha tha ki tumhari help karni chahiye yaa nahi…

Seeing Liza’s anrgy face he smiles.

SHREE: Tum toh laal tamatar ban gayi… chalo theek hai kar deta hoon help… tum bhi kya yaad rakhogi

He said and went upstairs towards Girl’s room. Liza slammed the feet in anger.

LIZA: Isko toh me chhodungi nahi…

Liza follow him while Arjun, Sakshi and Chotu nods in disbelief.

CHOTU: Inka kuch nahi ho sakta… koi hope nahi hai

SAKSHI: True

CHOTU: Ab shree toh busy hai toh me akela hi walk pe chala jaata hoon… Shree puchhe toh bata dena

Sakshi nods.

ARJUN: Take care Chotu aur please jaldi aa jaana

CHOTU: Ok sir

Chotu said with smile and left from there. Aisha come in living room holding milk.

AISHA: Kaha gaye sab?

SAKSHI: Specky aur uski Liza uppar hai and Chotu abhi abhi walk pe gaya…

AISHA: Ohh… Sir aap chalenge andar?

ARJUN: Thodi der baad aa jaaunga… tum Ayaan ko yeh milk de aauo aur usse kaho ki me thodi der mein aa raha hoon so Sam ko pareshan naa kare aur so jaaye uske saath

Aisha see him and then Sakshi. She understand the unspoken words.

AISHA: Ok

She said and went into room. Now Arakshi are alone in living room. Sakshi see him and pass smile then about to leave but Arjun stop her saying,

ARJUN: Sakshi kya tum mujhe thodi der veranda mein le jaauogi?

SAKSHI: Haan kyun nahi…

Sakshi take him to the veranda. Arjun breathe the fresh air and feel nice.

ARJUN: Pehle uss house me aur phir hospital me… pak gaya tha chaar diwaro ke bich…

Sakshi smile slightly. Both keep looking at sky. Till now Sakshi understand that Arjun wants to talk and she too want to talk with him but they didn’t understand how to start conversation. Both are stealing glances.

Arjun’s Room

Aisha gives hot chocolate to Ayaan and Ayaan finish it.

SAMEER: Ab so jaauo

AYAAN: Dad kaha hai? unke saath sona hai

AISHA: Vo unhe kuch kaam aa gaya toh bahar hai... thodi der mein aa jaayenge… unho ne kaha hai ki tab tak aap big dad ke saath so jaiiye

AYAAN: Hmmm... me apna teddy le aata hoon phir so jaaunga

SAMEER: Ok but come quick

Ayaan nods and went out. Sameer goes near Aisha.

SAMEER: Arjun Sakshi ke saath hai?

AISHA: Haan…

That question is enough to understand other things.

SAMEER: Thanks…bina kisi sawal jawab ke tumne baat ko samjh liya… I mean Arjun aur Sakshi ko shayad baat karne ki zaroorat hai

AISHA: Kyun nahi samjhungi?! baat sirf aap ke best friend ki hi nahi meri best friend ki bhi hai…

SAMEER: Hmm

AISHA: Aap iss baare mein kya sochte hai?

SAMEER: Abhi toh kuch khass nahi… me bas cheezon ko simple rakhna chahta hoon… that's it...

He looked at Aisha and she is looking lost and worried.

SAMEER: Koi baat hai kya Aisha?

AISHA: Haan… ek baat hai lakin abhi aap ko bata nahi sakti… meri dosti mujhe uske liye rok rahi hai… I am sorry

SAMEER: Sorry bolne ki zaroorat nahi hai… I am sure baat kaafi serious hogi tabhi tum itna pareshan ho aur share nahi kar paa rahi ho… It’s ok jab tumhe lage ki this is the right time toh bata dena

Aisha smiles and see him with admiration. Feeling her loving gaze,

SAMEER: Waise ek baat hai jiske baare mein sochna I think abhi zyada zaroori hai

Aisha see him with narrowed eyes. Suddenly she feels hand around her waist. Sameer pulled her which makes her put hands on his shoulder. She see him with big eyes as she didn’t expect this kind of action from him.

SAMEER: Tumhe nahi lagta ki hume humare baare mein sochna chahiye

Aisha first smile but then asked as if she is unable to understand what he want to say.

AISHA: Humare baare mein?! Humare baare mein kya sochna hai? me kuch samjhi nahi

Sameer tighten his grip.

SAMEER: Accha!!

Sameer said caresses her cheek,

SAMEER: Phir itna blush?! Kyun?

Aisha couldn’t stop herself to smile shyly feeling his finger on her cheeks. Sameer hug her and Aisha too hug him back.

This side after long silence Arakshi decided to take initiative. Both said together,

SAKSHI/ARJUN: Me tumse…

Both see each other and laughs.

ARJUN: Aisa doosri baar hua hai humare saath… yaad hai jab tum pehli baar yaha aayi thi…

SAKSHI: Haan mujhe yaad hai… anyways kya keh rahe the tum?

ARJUN: Wahi jo tum bhi kehna chahti ho…

This makes them serious. Sakshi stay silent for a moment and then said,

SAKSHI: Arjun tumhe darr lag raha hai naa ki Ayaan rishton me itna naa ulajh jaaye ki usse bahar aana uske liye impossible ban jaaye…

Arjun understand her indirect way of asking regarding her and Ayaan’s bond.

ARJUN: Kya mera darr galat hai Sakshi?

SAKSHI: Nahi... (after a small pause she continue) lakin Arjun kuch cheezein aisi hoti hi jo humare haath me nahi hoti hai… jaise Ayaan ka team member aur mere saath attachment… iss situation me koi bhi galat nahi hai… yeh kisi ke haath me nahi tha jo hua apne aap ho gaya…

ARJUN: Sawal sirf attachment ka nahi hai… me jaanta hoon ki uski age hi aisi hai aur kahin naa kahin uski zindagi me rishto ki kami thi jo ab jaake poori hui hai… for that I am very thankful to you and entire team… me tum logon ke rishtey ko acknowledge bhi karta hoon… Jiss tarah Ayaan ko team ki aadat ho gayi hai waise mujhe bhi iss parivaar ki aadat ho gayi hai… aur tum… tum toh meri best friend ho… humne naa jaane kitne behtreen saal saath bitaye hai lakin me yeh nahi bhul sakta ki tum sab ki apni alag personal life hai aur kuch dino baad Ayaan ko wapas hostel bhi jaana hai… tumne dekha aaj Ayaan kis tarah se zid kar raha tha…

Sakshi said nothing.

ARJUN: Sakshi tab kya hoga jab usko wapas hostel jaana padega? Aaj tak Ayaan ki duniya sirf me aur Sam the phir bhi vo hostel jaane ke waqut mayus ho gaya tha aur ab itne saare rishtey mil gaye hai usse… me nahi chahta ki vo itna kamzor ho jaaye ki sab ke bina kadam hi naa badha paaye… me yeh nahi keh raha ki usko sab se dur rehna hai lakin usko yeh bhi samjhna hoga ki sab humesha uske saath nahi reh sakte…

Sakshi nods agreeing with him. Both see each other and their eyes met. That eye lock convey everything about which they unable to talk directly. Arjun’s eyes convey his fear that is what if someday Ayaan will want Sakshi as his mother and if this happen he won’t be able to accept it. Reading his eyes, Sakshi felt like her broken heart again broke into million pieces.

In Arjun’s room SaIsha are feeling so nice in each other’s embrace. After a moment they break the hug.

AISHA: Inn sab se aap ka kaam nahi ho jaayega Mr. Rathod… bolna toh padega hi

SAMEER: Jaanta hoon…

Same time Ayaan comes there holding his pooh teddy.

SAMEER: Aa gaye aap… chaliye so jate hai ab

Ayaan nods. Ayaan lay on bed and Sameer cover him with blanket. Sameer sit beside him and starts patting. Aisha sit at other side and see Ayaan with loving smile.

Here in veranda,

Arakshi’s eye lock is broken by Sakshi. She take a deep sigh and composed herself.

SAKSHI: Arjun tumhe darne ki koi zaroorat nahi hai… Iss attachment ki wajah se me koi problem create nahi hone dungi waise bhi Ayaan tumhara beta hai aur hum sab jaante hai ki vo tumhari koi baat nahi talta… agar tum usko samjhauoge toh shayad vo samjh jaayega lakin I am sure ki tumhe usko kuch bhi samjhane ki zaroorat nahi padegi... kal hum sab chale jaayenge… uppar se tumhari iss injuries ki wajah se tumhe ab Ayaan ke saath bohat saara waqut bitane ke liye milega… thode din tum aur Ayaan saath rahoge aur hum sab bhi nahi honge toh sab kuch apne aap theek ho jaayega… sab waisa hi ho jaayega jaisa pehle tha…

Arjun nods. Sakshi looked at Sky. Arjun hold her hand. Sakshi feel hold on her wrist so she turn and see him.

ARJUN: Lakin iska yeh matlab nahi hai ki me tumhare aur Ayaan ke special bond ki respect nahi karta… tum uski angel ho aur humesha rahogi… aur meri best friend hone ke naate tumhara bhi Ayaan pe poora haq hai…

Sakshi nods in yes give her signature smile.

SAKSHI: Arjun bohat late ho raha hai… chalo me tumhe tumhare room tak chhod deti hoon… tumhe bhi ab so jaana chahiye...

Arjun nods and both went inside in Arjun’s room.

ARJUN: Ayaan so gaya?

SAMEER: Hmm…

Sakshi’s eyes are fixed on Ayaan.

AISHA: Sakshi chal ab hum bhi chalte hai…

Sakshi avert her gaze and nods. She and Sameer help Arjun to sit on bed. After that wishing good night, Sakshi and Aisha went out while Sameer decided to stay with Arjun and Ayaan.

Sakshi and Aisha come out from the room. Chotu too come back from a walk and after wishing good night went into his room. While climbing the stairs,

AISHA: Baat hui tumhari Arjun sir se? kya kaha unho ne?

SAKSHI: Usne aise toh kuch nahi kaha lakin uski aankhon me uska darr saaf nazar aa raha tha aur uss darr ke saath saath yeh bhi saaf dikh raha tha ki vo kabhi move on nahi kar paayega…

Aisha becomes sad.

SAKSHI: It’s ok Aisha… tumhe upset hone ki zaroorat nahi hai kyun ki mujhe iss baat se bilkul bhi boora nahi laga hai… Ayaan uska beta hai… agar me Arjun ki jagah hoti toh shayad me bhi aise hi react karti… ab iss baat ko yahi khatam karte hai ok? kal se sab kuch pehle jaisa ho jaayega

She said and went towards the room.

AISHA: Mujhe nahi lagta ki ab sab kuch pehle jaisa ho sakta hai Saskhi…

Sakshi called her so she brushed up all the thoughts and went upstairs. Sakshi and Aisha reached at their room. Shree is working on Liza’s laptop. They four spend time together and then Shree wished good night to them and headed to his room. This side Sameer and Arjun are laying on bed. Ayaan is sleeping peacefully in middle of them.

ARJUN: Sam uski aankhein yeh saaf keh rahi thi ki vo yeh baat samjhti hai ki Ayaan uske close aa chuka hai… usne mujhse kaha hai ki vo aisa kuch nahi hone degi jisse koi problem create ho

SAMEER: Hmm… waise boora naa maano toh ek baat kahun?

ARJUN: Tu kab se yeh formality karne lag gaya hai…

SAMEER: Formality nahi kar raha… lakin... Arjun tujhe nahi lagta ki tujhe move on karna chahiye…

Arjun see him with surprise.

SAMEER: I mean agar Ayaan ko Sakshi mein apni maa mil sakti hai toh uss mein kya problem hai?

ARJUN: Sam tu yeh kya bol raha hai!!!

SAMEER: Dekh maine khud dekha hai… Sakshi aur Ayaan do no ke bich bohat gehra rishta ban chuka hai aur Sakshi Ayaan ke liye ek bohat acchi maa sabit hogi… uppar se vo humari bachpan ki dost hai… vo tumhe acche se jaanti hai, samjhti bhi hai toh…

ARJUN: Toh me uski life barbaad kar doon?! kya me apne bete ki khushi ke chalte usko ek aise rishte me baandh doon jiska koi matlab hi naa ho?! itni acchi ladki jisne abhi tak shayad apni life me kisi ko aane hi nahi diya hai yaa ek baar bhi pyaar ka ehsaas hi nahi kiya hai usko bina pyaar ki zindagi jeene ke liye kaise majboor kar sakta hoon me… usne toh abhi apni life shuru bhi nahi ki hai aise me uss peek bacche ki zimeedari daal doon? Sam vo humari dost hai, mere aur mere bete ke liye already itna sab kuch kar rahi hai iske liye me pehle se hi uska ehsaanmand hoon ab me usko aisi koi situation me nahi daalna chahta jisse uska dil toot jaaye…

Sameer understand his point of view and nods in yes agreeing with him.

SAMEER: Chal ab yeh sab chhod aur so jaa… you need rest…

Both close their eyes and soon they drift into sleep.

Girls are also sleeping in their room. Sakshi turn and look towards Aisha and Liza. Both are sleeping peacefully. Sakshi get up and come downstairs. She first went into kitchen and drink some water. She come in living room. Her gaze falls on Arjun’s room which is slightly open. She goes in and look at Ayaan and then Arjun. Her eyes starts brimming with tears. After a moment she come out and sits on sofa. She is unable to hold back her tears. She looked at Roshni’s photo on the wall and goes there.

SAKSHI: Tumhe lag raha hoga ki maine Ayaan ki zindagi me tumhari jagah le li hai… hai naa? lakin Roshni trust me maine aisa kuch nahi kiya hai… mujhe pata hi nahi chala ki Ayaan mere itne close kab aa gaya… kab me uske liye itni important ho gayi… kal jab Aisha ne bola naa ki unn sab ko lagta hai ki Ayaan mujh me apni maa ko dekhne laga hai toh mujhe bilkul bhi yakin nahi hua tha... ab bhi nahi ho raha hai lakin sab ek saath galat kaise ho sakte hai? Aaj Arjun ki aankhon me bhi wahi darr tha… Aisha bhi iss baat ko leke serious hai aur Sameer… usne abhi tak mujhse kuch kaha nahi hai lakin vo bhi kuch naa kuch toh zaroor sochta hoga…

She think about everyone and then said looking at Roshni,

SAKSHI: You know Arjun sure hai ki vo akele Ayaan ko sambhal sakta hai, Ayaan ko maa ki zaroorat nahi hai aur Aisha sure hai ki Ayaan ko maa ki zaroorat hai aur mera saath uski zindagi me maa ki kami poori karta hai… lakin mera kya? koi yeh toh batata hi nahi hai ki mujhe kya karna chahiye?! Meri manzil toh mujhe kahin nazar hi nahi aa rahi hai… (her voice get cracked) Saalon pehle Arjun ke liye mere pyaar ne mujhe iss uljhan me daala tha aur aaj saalon baad Ayaan ke liye mere pyaar ne mujhe wapas iss uljhan mein daal diya hai… uss waqut bhi maine tum do no ki khushi ke liye khud ko Arjun se alag kar diya tha aur aaj lagta hai ek baar phir mujhe alag hona padega…

She wiped the tears which fall down on her cheeks.

SAKSHI: Iss baar apna sab kuch chhod ke toh nahi jaa sakti lakin itna zaroor kar sakti hoon ki Ayaan aur uske papa ki life me zyada interfere naa karu… jaanti hoon ki mushkil hoga lakin shayad mera dur rehna hi ek raasta hai jisse me situation ko bigadne se rok sakti hoon…

She composed herself and take a deep breathe.

SAKSHI: Kal me yaha se jaa rahi hoon Roshni aur uske baad koshish karungi ki iss ghar se jitna ho sake utna dur rahun… chahe mere liye kitna bhi painful kyun naa ho me khud ko Ayaan se dur rakhungi… Ayaan kuch waqut ke liye upset zaroor hoga lakin uske papa usko sambhal lenge aur phir sab theek ho jaayega…

She made up her mind and keep looking at Roshni’s photo for a moment then went to her room.

Next Day

Next morning all had a breakfast and then get ready for ETF. Seeing team packing their bags Ayaan becomes very upset and remain silent all the time. Everyone can notice his sadness but avoid to say anything about it and keep talking on random topics. It’s around 9 and ETF team is ready to leave for office. Chotu put everyone’s bags into back side of SUV which increase Ayaan’s sadness.

SAMEER: Arjun abhi me jaa raha hoon… case nahi hoga toh aa jaaunga…

ARJUN: Ok… tu tension mat le… I will take care of myself aur phir Misha bhi aa jaayegi shayad thodi der mein

SAMEER: Nahi vo actually me tujhe batana bhul gaya… Misha kuch hafton ke liye nahi aayegi… uska phone aaya tha… kisi family emergency ki wajah se usko goa jaana pada… keh rahi thi ki abhi pakka nahi keh sakti ki kab wapas aayegi

ARJUN: Ohh ok… no problem… waise bhi ab me toh ghar pe hi hoon toh koi tension ki baat hai hi nahi… aur phir free time me toh tu bhi yahi aa jaayega

Sameer nods and looked at team.

SAMEER: Chalo phir nikalte hai…

Team looked at Ayaan who is looking down with sad face. They goes near him except from Sakshi.

AISHA: Aap hume bye nahi kahenge?

Ayaan nods in no.

SHREE: Lakin kaltoh aap ne kaha tha ki aap happy ho

AYAAN: Haan chachu lakin ab me happy nahi hoon… mujhe kal raat ko laga tha ki me subah sad rahunga toh aap sab nahi jaayenge... papa aap ko wapas se rok lenge lakin ab toh aap sab ne bags bhi car me rakh diya... please shree chahchu aap sab mat jaauo naa... aap ko etf jaana hai toh koi baat nahi lakin uske baad hum sab saath rahenge aur bohat masti karenge...

CHOTU: Ayaan humne promise kiya hai naa… hum sab milne aate rahenge...

AYAAN: Lakin milne aayenge toh thoda hi time milega... saath rahenge toh bohat saara time hoga humare pass aur mamu hum roz nayi nayi dishes bhi toh try karenge

SAMEER: Ayaan baby aise zid nahi karte... chaliye ab sab ko bye boliye... sab ko late ho raha hai

But Ayaan didn’t react on it. Seeing his sad face team too become upset and looked at Arjun. He assure them through eyes and tell them to leave on which team nods in yes.

LIZA: Bye Ayaan…hum jaldi aap se milne aayenge

AISHA: Aur me toh soch rahi hoon ki aap ke liye new toys bhi leke aaun… vo remote control waali new car jo apne mujhe dikhayi thi, vo waali le aaungi… phir hum dono uske saath kehlenge ok?

Ayaan said nothing and keep looking down.

ARJUN: Ayaan chalo sab ko happy face ke saath bye bolo… aise sad nahi hote hai naa...

Still no response from him. Sakshi see him.

SAKSHI (Thought): Jab itne din tumne Ayaan ko sambhala hai toh jaate waqut bhi usko sambhal le…phir toh tujhe dur rehna hi hai…

She take a deep sigh. She goes near Ayaan and sit on her knees in front of him. She makes him looked up. His eyes are full of tears. Sakshi wiped it gently and nods in no.

SAKSHI: Good boy rote nahi hai

AYAAN: Me good boy hoon phir bhi aap mujhe chhod ke jaa rahe ho… agar aap ko lagta hai ki me aap ko bohat tang karta hoon toh I promise angel me aap ko bilkul pareshan nahi karunga… aap ki saari baat maanunga… ab toh aap ruk jaauoge naa

Sakshi cupped his face.

SAKSHI: Nahi baby… aisa aap se kisne keh diya... Aap angel ko kabhi tang nahi karte hai…

AYAAN: Toh aap kyun jaa rahe ho

SAKSHI: Kyun ki humara jaana zaroori hai… hum humesha ke liye yaha nahi ruk sakte…

AYAAN: Theek hai... toh sirf aap mere saath ruk jaauo... jab tak me hostel nahi chala jaata tab tak toh ruk jaauo Angel… phir aap chale jaana apne ghar... me nahi pakka aap ko nahi rokunga

SAKSHI: Me nahi ruk sakti baby... itne din aap ke saath thi naa toh bohat saara kaam pending pada hai… jaise aap homework karte ho waise mujhe bhi homework karna hai… kya aap yeh chahte hai ki angel apna kaam poora naa kare aur unhe unke sir se daant pade?

Ayaan think about it and said,

AYAAN: No lakin aap yaha reh ke apna homework poora kar lena… me aur papa do no aap ko help karenge… phir toh apka kaam bhi jaldi poora ho jaayega

SAKSHI: Maine kaha naa Ayaan aisa nahi ho sakta… aap ke papa ko rest ki zaroorat hai aur abhi aap ko sirf apne papa ke saath rehna chahiye iss liye hum sab ko jaana padega... mujhe bhi...

AYAAN: Aap toh meri har wish poori karti hai phir yeh wish poori kyun nahi kar rahi hai

SAKSHI: Wish aur zid me phark hota hai baby aur aap abhi zid kar rahe ho… aap toh chahte the naa ki aap ke Dad wapas aa jaaye aur phir aap unke saath bohat masti kare toh phir dekhiye aap ke Dad yahi pe hai aap ke saath… aap bohat saari masti kariye aur hum sab waha office me apna kaam karenge… waise bhi aap toh jaante hai kaam karna boring hota hai… hume boring kaam karne dijiye aur aap yaha dad ke saath full on enjoy kijiye…

Ayaan is about to argue but Sakshi didn’t let him speak.

SAKSHI: Jab koi jaa raha hota hai toh usko smile ke saath bye kehna chahiye aur uske saath argument nahi karna chahiye… aisa karna bad manners hota hai aur mera Star toh humesha good things karta hai ekdam uske perman ki tarah… hai naa?

Ayaan nods slightly.

SAKSHI: Good

She wiped his fresh tears. She get up and picked him in her arms.

SAKSHI: Now chalo sab ko bye boliye vo bhi smile ke saath

Though Ayaan is not happy but he said bye with slight smile. Sakshi see Arjun and he whispers “Thank you Sakshi” which Sakshi accept with smile. Then she kissed on Ayaan’s cheeks. Ayaan wrapped hand around her neck and hug her tightly. After a momemt, Sakshi put the Ayaan down.

SAKSHI: Ab chaliye mujhe bhi toh bye kahiye

Ayaan see her and nods in no.

SAKSHI: Please

Sakshi said with cute pout. Ayaan hug her again and starts crying.

AYAAN: Mat jaauo angel…

Sakshi caresses his hairs for some time and try to free herself but Ayaan is not leaving her. Sakshi looked at Arjun and request him to help. Arjun nods and pushed his wheelchair towards Ayaan and hold him.

ARJUN: Ayaan unhe jaana hai… chalo bye bolo

AYAAN: Nahi papa…please roko naa angel ko…

Arjun makes Ayaan turn towards him and start consoling him but Ayaan keep crying while his one hand is holding Sakshi’s kurti tightly. Arjun signal Sameer to leave with team. Sameer nods and said,

SAMEER: Chalo… Arjun will take care of him

Team nods sadly and said “Bye” to Arjun and Ayaan. Sakshi slowly free her kurti from Ayaan’s hold which makes Ayaan see her. Sakshi starts walking but she stops as Ayaan come and hold her finger.

AYAAN: Mat jaauo naa angel… mujhe aap ke saath hi rehna hai… please angel

Ayaan’s crying is affecting everyone but it is more difficult for Sakshi. She is feeling like someone is stabbing her heart. The way he is crying and pleading is making her weak but she has to do this to avoid further complications. She let out a deep sigh and pulled her finger from his hold without looking at him.

AYAAN: Angel mat jaauo

SAKSHI: Sameer tum sab doosri SUV se aa jaana…

Sakshi quickly went outside. Before Arjun can stop, Ayaan run behind her screaming her name. Arjun get damn worried for his son but as his leg is injured he can’t move quickly.

SAMEER: Arjun tu ruk me abhi Ayaan ko leke aata hoon

With that Sameer too run behind Ayaan to stop him. Team is also get worried seeing the scene as they didn’t expect this kind of reaction from Ayaan. This side Sakshi is reluctantly ignoring Ayaan who is running behind her. She sit into SUV and starts driving. Ayaan keep running behind the SUV calling her name. Sakshi see this from side view mirror. She see Sameer is coming to stop Ayaan so she increase the speed and left from there. Here Sameer stop Ayaan and picked him in his arm.

SAMEER: Ayaan aise koi karta hai baby? agar aap gir jaate aur choat aa jaati toh…

Ayaan hug him.

AYAAN: Angel ko bulauo naa big dad… mujhe unke saath rehna hai

Sameer try to shush him saying various things but nothing works. He starts walking towards house. Ayaan’s eyes were fixed at road until they enter inside house.

ARJUN: Ayaan…

Sameer put Ayaan down. Ayaan run to Arjun and hug him.

AYAAN: Dad angel chali gayi…

ARJUN: Vo aap se milne wapas aayegi… me kahunga unhe ki roz aap se do time milne aaye ok?

AYAAN: Lakin vo gayi hi kyun? mujhe unke saath hi rehna hai papa… aap angel ko bulauo naa…

Arjun don’t know what to say so he keep caressing Ayaan’s back to calm him. He looked at team.

ARJUN: Aap sab please pareshan mat hoiiye aur ETF jaiiye… me hoon naa Ayaan ke saath

LIZA: Sir Ayaan ko aise rota hua chhod ke kaise jaaye?!

SHREE: Haan Sir

SAMEER: Nahi Arjun sahi keh raha hai… ETF jaana zaroori hai…

AISHA: Rathod sir aap yahi rukiye thodi der… hum sab office jaate hai… aap baad me aa jaana

Sameer nods agreeing with her. Team bid bye to Arjun and left from there with sad face. Here Arjun and Sameer starts consoling Ayaan but nothing is working. Arjun’s eyes also filled with tears seeing his son.

This side Sakshi reached at ETF and went into washroom and washed her face multiple times to hide her tears.

SAKSHI: I am so sorry Ayaan… aap ko aise rota hua chhod ke me yaha aa gayi lakin agar abhi iss tarah se nahi aati toh shayad kabhi nahi aa paati…

After some time team also reached there. Aisha look at Sakshi’s cubicle but she is not there. Aisha quickly enter in conference room but there’s no sign of Sakshi.

AISHA: Sakshi kaha chali gayi?!

SHREE: SUV toh niche parking me hi hai matlab yahi kahin hona chahiye usse…

LIZA: Me terrace aur canteen dekh leti hoon

Aisha nods. After some time Liza enter in conference room and said getting worried,

LIZA: Nahi vo canteen aur terrace pe bhi nahi hai

CHOTU: Toh kaha gayi?

Same time Sakshi enter in the room. Seeing her everyone take sigh of relief. Aisha quickly goes near her.

AISHA: Sakshi kaha thi tum?

SAKSHI: Washroom gayi thi…kyun? Aur aap sab itne pareshan kyun hai?

AISHA: Vo tum waha se aise chali aayi iss liye…

SAKSHI: Ohh… Aisha mera aisa karna zaroori tha warna Ayaan hume nahi aane deta… jitna waqut hum waha zyada rukte utna hi Ayaan upset hota rehta

CHOTU: Lakin Sakshi tujhe aise nahi aana chahiye tha... pata hai vo bohat ro raha tha… iss liye toh Rathod sir bhi waha ruk gaye…

SAKSHI: Thodi der royega aur phir shant ho jaayega… Arjun aur Sammy hai naa… do no usko sambhal lenge…

Team nods with sad face while Aisha keep seeing her.

SAKSHI: Anyways me sab ke liye coffee bana deti hoon

LIZA: Nahi Sakshi… Ayaan ko aise rota hua chhod ke aaye hai toh kuch accha nahi lag raha hai…

CHOTU: Haan yaar…coffee rehne de…

SHREE: Usko roz haste hue dekhte hai aur aaj kitna boori tarike se ro raha tha… vo scene aankhon ke samne se jaa hi nahi raha hai…

SAKSHI: Guys relax… tum log itna pareshan kyun ho rahe ho? bohat jaldi vo wapas normal ho jaayega… waise bhi kabhi naa kabhi toh yeh pal aana hi tha… sach toh yahi hai naa ki hum sab waha humesha ke liye nahi reh sakte... right?

Team stay silent and take seats. Their silence is broken by Aisha’s phone. She recived the phone and talk with the person. After disconnecting the phone,

AISHA: Case hai…jaana padega… me Rathod sir ko bhi inform kar deti hoon…

With that they left the office.
