Part 10:
Nupur took a glass of water pouring it from a jug placed on the table top and started with her own story, "Aunty...woh
kya haina ki mere Bauji kabse meri shaadi karwana chahte the...mer Mumbai aane se bhi pehle se...par main kuch khud ke
balbute par karna chahti thi pehle, phir ek din toh unki baat maan hi jaani hai aur usse pehle khud ke liye bhi toh kuch
kuch kar paaun aisa na ho baad mein ki maine apne dreams puri karne ki kabhi koshish hi nahi ki aur wahi boring si
life jeene lagi...umm, mann mein thess rakh kar aur phir hamesha Bauji ko bematlab blame karoonki unki wajah se kuch adhoora
reh gaya jabki unhone ne mere liye sab kuch perfect kiya hai..."
Then waiting for a second she continued, "Toh bas main thoda lad kar, thoda jhagad kar aur thoda zidd mein yahan
chali aayi Bui ke support se aur haan Bauji ki permission ke saath...unhe bhi finally mana hi liya maine..." she
was talking her heart out and Mayank listened to it keenly in the other room. He found himself entralled with the
see though being that Nupur was.
She seemed like a typical girl but wanted to stand out for herself. She wanted to object to her Bauji, but at the same
time wanted a life ahead that remained unblamed on him and a happy life at that.
He did like the basis of her objectivity - oriented, simple and right. Not to mention how his instant liking for
her was applauded by his heart at this very instant. He istened to her further continuing story.
"Par jab mujhe yahaan aaye lag bhag 2 months ho gaye the aur muskil se mera job bhi regular ho raha tha toh Bauji ne mujhe wapaas
bula liya...Morena mein...aur main 4 din ki chutti lekar gayi thi..aur iss baar toh main bach gayi, ByGod...!!!!"
And laughed at what continues further, "Woh jisse mujhe Bauji milwana chahte the woh mere neighbour mein hi rhta tha, aur usse meri friend
pasand bhi karti thi toh main usse bata dia aur bilkul filmy style mein dono ki filmy kahani likh di aur woh mil gaye" she giggled at her words
while Shilpa Sharma gave her a smile for her ways of turning out things their best.
Nupur continued, "Par iss baar bhi mujhe wahi arguments karne pade...aur ab mujhe lagta hai ki Nauji yuhi nahi maanenge...woh ohir mujhe bulayenge...aur meri job chali jayegi naa itni chuttiyaan lene par...waise hi woh kitna consider kar chuke hain jab main shuru mein late jaati thi toh..." and she laughed teased with her problems.
Shilpa Sharma agreed to her and said, "Haan...waise Sir achche toh hain...par tumne aage kya karne ka socha hai?"
Nupur frowned as she tried to reply, unsure, "Pata nahi Aunty...Bauji ko kaise manaaya jaaye?...ek toh wahaan kuch loogon ne Bauji ko alag hi patti padha rakhi hai..."
Shilpa Sharma suppressed he laughter at her words 'Patti padha rakhi hai' coz the situation demanded better of her and so she asked, "Kya kaha kisne?"
Nupur repied, "Yahi ki...Mumbai mein log achche nahi hain...aur mera yahaan akele rehna safe nahi hai...par kahaan bure log miley hain mujhe Aunty...aap achchi hain, mere friends Ayesha, Komal, Kinza, Jenny, Shivani, Anshu, Amy, Divya...yeh sab achche hain, mere boss, Uncle aur Aunty...sabhi toh achche hain...mujhe unsafe kabhi laga hi nahi yahan...aur haan Mayank bhi toh hai...gussa dikhata hai aur shant rehta hai par usne bhi toh meri har baar madad ki..."
Mayank felt very curious at her words and didn't know why but he came out of his room and stood at the end of the passage which took him to the living room, making himself visible to all seated there. He wanted to damn the feeling which had made him do this. Had he lost his every ounce of brain over a single liking? and her mentioning him twice this evening meant something more than it actually meant.
Nupur looked up at him and smiling said, "Hi Mayank...Kaise ho?"
Mayank smiled back at the beautiful being in front of him and replied back softly without meaning to, "Theek hoon...tum kaisi ho?" this was not a formality and the concern in his voice made Nupur and Shilpa Sharma look at him amazed.
Nupur replied happily, "Main...main bilkul theek hoon hamesha ki tarah..." and Mayank felt the strength of the gril seemigly delicate but mentally very strong. He just couldn't help liking her more and more for the reasons best known to him.
Nupur felt strange with the sudden change in Mayank. He seemed so concerned and was being nice to her on the face, that was a first for Nupur from Mayank's side without any tint of irritation. She liked this Mayank more.
Nupur returned back to Shilpa Sharma but decided to dis-continue her misery for the while. She didn't want to be weak in front of mayank, he already saw her as undurable to even minute things in life, and now she didn't want to open up her book of life in front of him since she didn't knew how he would end up reactiong on it. Besides, he was being so sweet today and she didn't exactly want to look for sharp accusations from him now, she was already fighting with her Bauji for it and she didn't want anymore additions of view points to it. She smiled at Shilpa Sharma and said, "Aunty ab main chalti hoon...warna der ho jaayegi naa...aap se baat kar ke achcha laga...thanks" and saying it, she hugged Shilpa Sharma and turned to leave.
Shilpa Sharma looked at Mayank as if asking if he will drop her home while Nupur's back faced her as she walked towards the door. Mayank nodded in a 'yes' immediately and Shilpa Sharma smiled a 'proud smile' to Mayank when she called out Nupur and said,"Nupur ruko...Mayank tumhe ghar tak chod dega..."
Nupur felt like she was putting Shilpa Sharma in a helpless situation again like the last time she had asked mayank and on his denial Shilpa Sharma had felt bad clearly. She turned back to clarify so that Mayank need not repeat his words, "Arrey nahi Aunty...main chali jaaongi...abhi itni jyaada der bhi nahi hui hai" when Mayank spoke up all of a sudden, "Nupur, main tumhe chod deta hoon...tum halo main bike ki keys lekar aata hoon..."
Nupur repeated perplexed, "Bike?"
Shilpa Sharma replied smiling, "Haan...woh jab tum Morena gayi thi naa...tab mayank ne apne liye ek bike khareedi thi apne birthday par..."
Nupur came back to Shilpa Sharma and said excitedly, "Congrats Aunty...ab aapko aapka Beta roz bike se office chod diya karega aur unn pareshaani bhari autos se bhi peecha choot jayega..." and smiling she moved ahead to Mayank and wished him, "Woh kya kehte hain...haan, Belated Happy Birthday Mayank...wish you luck for life..."
Something inside him felt very happy and he realised that something was very close to being his heart and said, "Thanks Nupur...chalo, main tumhe chod deta hoon" without any traceof formality.
He tried to be casual which made Nupur feel a new connection to this 'Usually-unknown-person'
She smiled and left and waited for him in the parking area of the building while Mayank got the keys and left home trying hard not to be happy to seat Nupur on his new bike. He chided himself for thinking like a typical guy all of a sudden, very unlike his sane self.
Shilpa Sharma smiled at what she had seen today between Mayank and Nupur. She didn't willingly thought of those things but she could clearly see Mayank's and Nupur's behavioural change for each other and something magnetic between the two too.
She couldn't wait to tease Mayank on his return.
