Raghu again sat n took a sip of alcohol. He kept staring at d pic n 4got wat he abt 2 do. Some scenes from his past came infront of his eyes. He saw a woman lying on a bed crying in pain continuously calling his name, a kid arranging wooden logs on a dead body on a cremating ground, 5 men surrounding a young beautiful teen girl n pulling her hands, snatching her dupatta n misbehaving wid her n then closing d door leaving d girl crying n screaming n d men inside d room mollesting d poor girl n in d end d same kid in d feet of a powerful yet dangerous woman.
He was feeling guilty d whole tym bt now ther ws fire in his eyes. His feature completely changed. His made a fist n banged on d table. He again filled his glass n gulped down d alcohol n crushed d glass wid his hand. Blood was oozing out frm his hand bt he kept on staring at d picture.
Raghu- Antara joh tere saath aaj hua woh toh bass picture ka ek chotta sa trailer tha. Tu soch bhi nahi sakti ke tere saath aur kya kya hoga. Tune mujhe aur meri family ko jitna tadpaya hai ne usse 100 gunna main tujhe tadpaunga. Nahi chodunga tujhe. Aaj tu chalaki se mujhse bacch gayi. Kismat se woh vase tere haat lag gaya aur tune mere sir pe maara phir bhag gayi balcony mein par teri kismat har baar tera saath nahi de sakti antara. Main mera badla pura karke rahunga.
He got out of d bar n sat in his car, he was high n driving vry fast. He stopped at a lonely place nxt 2 a pond with trees all around. He got out of d car n stumbled near d water. He slowly sat on d grass, his eyes wer moist n pain on his face. He removed his wallet out n took d picture out. The headlights of his car wer on n d light directly fell on d picture.
~~~Flashback~~~
KASHMIR
I was jst 8 yrs old when i started working at a tea stall which was situated right next 2 a huge haveli which belonged 2 a famous builder of Kashmir Mr.Angad Kaul n his daughter antara! Jst coz she lost her mom when she was born her father gave her evrything which she needed n also evrything which she wanted! He spoiled her.
All my classmates would play cricket on d playground bt i had 2 work as a chaiwala. I was loyal n nevr cheated nevr evn accepted tips. My mother always said, "mehnat karo aur usska fall pao, jo tumhe bina mehnat ke mile woh tera aapna nahi". Evn when the goons came 4 their hafta, i would fight 4 our right n nevr let any goon evn cum close 2 our stall. Evry1 who 1 supplied chai liked me coz of my loyalty n my fearlessness.
I loved my mum n my pari di. These 2 ladies wer my life. My mom gav me hr morals n values, thot me 2 distinguish between right n wrong bt unfortunatly she could nt stop me frm working at sch a young age as she was sick most of the time n would remain on the bed d whole dat bt she would evry night make me sit nxt 2 her n ask me hw my day was. My pari di would serve me food n feed my mum. Pari di was d most beautiful girl evr. She was in truly kashmir ki kali. Her name was payal bt i called her pari di coz she was no less den any fairy. She was very fair, had big black eyes, soft baby pink lips n long long hair. I always told her 2 leave her hair loose as she had d longest hair in our area bt she always tied them in a chhoti. She also worked very hard, attended high school, took care of mum, cook n do d other household work bt evrytym i saw her she looked fresh n had dat smile on hr face which was heavenly divine. This was my life bt imperfectly perfect! Wid these 2 ladies i could go on forever. Bt she ruined evrything!
One day when i returned bck home i saw my Pari di crying n running around d neighbourhood. I ran n asked her wat had happnd she could say nothing bt point her finger 2wards our little house. I had no idea wat was going on, bt luking at pari di i knew dat it was sumthing vry bad. I ran inside n saw my mum unconcious. I tried 2 bring her bck 2 her senses by sprinkling water bt she didnt respond soon i heard pari di she told me dat her heartbeats wer still on bt she was nt waking up. She tried a lot bt they need a doctor before it's too late. I told pari di to look after her n i ran out. I banged d doors of evry possible person i knew bt they all refused 2 help me. I knew my malik for whom i worked would help me so i ran bck 2 d stall bt he was not ther. I couldnt stop myself frm crying, if i didnt get a doctor my mother would loose her life as she's in a critical state. I broke down in d middle of d road. Crying loudly n asking for help bt i could hear nothing but my own echoing voice. Sumhow i managed 2 get up n i saw Mr.Kaul's light on. He slowly came out of his house mayb he didn't want 2 wake up any1 at home. He was standing in his garden when i ran towards him. He was talking on his phone so i stood at a distance, waiting 4 him 2 cut d call bt he kept on talking n he looked a bit tensed. I didnt intend 2 bt i heard wat he was talking
Mr.Kaul- par Maai, aapko wo hi kyu chahiye? Woh toh ek chaiwala hai aur bada hi batameez hai. Theek se school bhi nahi jaata aur dadagiri karta phirta h...
He didnt evn complete his sentence n started sweating. Mayb d caller shouted at him. He wiped d sweat frm his forehead n continued 2 speak
Mr.Kaul- ji maai, joh aap kaho. Main kuch bhi karke ussko aapke paas pohcha dunga. Paar iss mein humari deal matt bhuliye. Yeh deal meri beti antara ke liye bohot zaroori hai, usske future ke liye, usske hi liye toh main yeh sab kar raha hu.
For a moment i felt lyk he was talking abt me bt at that moment my mother's health was more important so as soon as he disconnected i fell in his feet.
Raghu- sahab, meri maa bohot beemaar hai meri madat karo, kisi ne meri madat nahi ki, aap kar dijiye badi meherbani hogi. Joh aap kaho main karunga, puri life aapka gulam banke rahunga par meri maa ko bacha lo
Mr.Kaul- dont worry my son, i'll help u. Aacha kiye ki tum yaha aah gaye.
I didnt expect sch a mean n egoistic person lyk Mr.Kaul to b ready 2 help me widout anything in return. I was so happy.
Mr.Kaul- aaj se tumhari maa ke hospital aur medicines ka kharcha main uthaunga aur unko top hospital mein admit karunga. Tension matt lo beta unki treatment ki responsibility main lunga.
I felt so relieved, lyk sum1 gav my lyf bck 2 me. So i thanked him n was abt 2 go bck home 2 my mum bt he stopped me
Mr.Kaul- stop! Jaa kaha rahe ho? Puchoge nahi ke tumhe badle mein kya karna hoga?
Raghu- badle mein? Matlab? Mere paas aapko dene ke liye kuch nahi hai..
Mr.Kaul- tumhe kya laga main yeh sab free mein kar raha hu? Tujhe bohot important kaam karna hai nahi kiya toh main nahi bachunga. Aab chup chap main joh kehta hu woh kar!
Raghu- toh mujhe kya karna hoga?
Mr.Kaul- mumbai!
Raghu- mumbai?
Mr.Kaul- haa, mumbai. Tumhe kal hi mumbai jaana hoga hamesha hamesha ke liye.
I felt lyk d ground beneath my feet slipped away. I had no idea wat was going on in my life. Wat destiny wants frm me. I nevr complained abt my life bt why is god playing wid it now? The only person who can save my mother wants me 2 leave my mother here in kashmir n go 2 mumbai forever! Hw can an 8 yr old take sch an important decision.
Mr.Kaul- toh batao kya karna hai? Jaoge Mumbai ya apni maa ko marte dekhoge?
A/N- finally completed d 2nd chapter!
Agar samaj mein nahi aaya toh dont worry mujhe bhi kuch zyaada samaj mein nahi aaya. I wanted 2 finish d flashback section bt d update so far became so huge dat if i added d nxt part, tum sabh padhte padhte bore ho jaate. N if i disappointed u guys den im sorry. This is my 1st dark ss so maaf kar dena.
