PART 41
Sujal was all alone on the secluded hill top Sujal was all alone on the secluded hill top with his bottle of whiskey.
He thought a drink would calm him, but he was so unable to tame the torment inside him.
Why was he feeling so frustrated?
Why did he show to her? Why? That what she did bothered him, that he was hurt.
Why on the earth was he hurt, he should have been least bother.
Even if he was hurt, why was he such a fool to show it to her?
And, why was he explaining to her? He never ever explained anything to anyone.
Why was he so terrified of losing her? why did he have fear that she will misunderstand him?
He gulped some more, his confusion was saturating him.
Nothing could give him peace.
He almost pleaded , why? Why did he fear that she would change?
Why even the thought that she might leave him haunted him?
He was not a kid, he was a big grown up independent man , who didn't need anyone. Then why on the earth he felt miserable, whenever he would imagine life without her.
He thought having a drink would help, he had finished half of the bottle but it wasn't helping him even a bit.
He wished she would be there, so he could rest his head on her lap, close his eyes and forget the whole world.
Why was he thinking like that?
Was he in love with her?
No..no..he cant love anyone...peope get attatched and dependent on othe people in love and they cheat on people, like his father did.
But didn't he also cheat on her? Wasn't it cheating?
Didn't he hurt her?
But he never wanted to hurt her, he never wanted to hurt anyone. He never wanted to fall in love, because love hurts.
He didn't need love. He was one of the people, who were not meant to love. He is strong enough to survive without love.
A drop of tear trickles down his eye.
He gulps some more.
Love was never in his plan. Never, he never planned it.
'But...but...its all because of you ! YOU ! you KASHISH ! everything has become chaotic.'
'I hate you.'
He thinks aloud.
He sits on the ground gazing at the night sky with twinkling stars.
'But, I ..i..really don't hate you. I never can. You know that, huh?'
'You know you can kill me, and still I won't hate you.'
He mumbles to himself.
'Weird, huh?'
'Life is also weird, don't you think so?'
He lays down on the clayy ground spreading his arms and legs, gazing at the dark night sky.
'You know you confuse me, you frustrate me....[he smirks]..you are my wild baby!'

Kashish had a meeting with the producer in a restaurant.
She was walking out after the meeting when she she heard someone call her name.
She turns to see Sujal's father standing behind her with a fatherly smile.
She also smiles back.
k-Hello, Mr Garewal.
Father-arre, beti. Maine tumhe papa kehne ko kaha tha naa, main tumhe apni bahu manta hoon to main tumhara papa hua naa.
She looks down.
k-nahi, i..i am comfortable with Mr Garewal only.
f-kya hua hai beti? Pareshaan hai? Koi baat hai to mujh se share kar.
k-ji nahi, thanks.
f-Sujal ne kuch kaha? Arre tu uski baat ka bura mat maana kar, gussa bohot jaldi aata hai use. Aur gusse mein khud ko hi nahi pata hota ki keh kya raha hai.
k-emm..shayad aapko mere aur Sujal ke bare mein kisi ne galat information di hai, hamare beech aisa kuch bhi nahi hai. [she is loking away]
f-ho hi nahi sakta. Jis source se mujhe information mili hai, wo bohot reliable hai.
k-kaun?
f-tum dono ki ye aankhen, aur unmein basaa pyaar.
k-[looks dreamily] meri ankhon ke pyaar ka koi mol nahi, kyunki woe k tarfa hai. Aur Sujal ki ankhon mein jiske liye pyaar hai wo main nahi.
f-kya???? Wo kisi aur se? ho hi nahi sakta.
k-[she smirks sadly] chodiye naa inn baton ko, uski khushi mein hi meri khushi hai. Main iss bare mein baat nahi karna chahti.
f-thi hai, jaisi tumhari marzi. Waise main kaam ke silsile mein hi baat karne aaya tha.
k-kaam?
f-haan, bohot takleef mein hoon, beta. Teri madat chahta hoon.
k-arre, aap aise kyun keh rahe hain. Mujhse jitna bann padega main karungi. Baat kya hai?
f-wo kya hai naa, meri company ki meri advertising company se zara ann-bann ho gai hai, aur model jo hamara ad karti thi uska uss company ke saath contrac hai. Nayi advertising company to mil gayi, par itne kam time mein shoot ke lie koi model nahi mil rahi. Main soch raha tha ki, agar tum iss budhe par ye ehsaan kardo to...
k-aisi baatein bilkul mat kariye, aap mere papa jaise ho. Aapka hakk hai. Kab hai shoot?
f-kal. Par tumhara koi appointment...
k-main wo sab sambhal lungi, aap bilkul tension mat lijiega. Aur amin ye baat bahu , beti sab hone ke hakk se keh rahi hoon.
The father smiles, and moves his hand on her head.
f-jeeti raho, beta.
K also smiles, happily.
She always felt a fatherly warmth whenever she met him.
