Part 30:

Mayank and Nupur reached home and it was now late enough to sleep now and with heavy eyelids taking its toll on her, Nupur was fast asleep before realizing it.

She woke up with a start in the middle of the night with sweat beads lacing her forehead. She had had a dream, there was an accident. Who met an accident, she couldn't quite catch it, but she and Mayank were..distanced, yes that was the word for it...why and how, she didn't know, but she only felt it...even now...

Nupur felt some unknown sadness grip her and catching her breath, a bit restless, she woke up and sat there looking out for Mayank suddenly.

Surprisingly, Mayank was still awake, but what was strange was that he wasn't as such reading or anything; he was plainly just awake, in deep thoughts before Nupur woke up beside him. He was sitting with his eyes wide open and looking at nothing but his thoughts, memories and also about what he should tell Nupur about his Dad's accident and how much it had changed him. Would she understand why?

There he saw, in real, Nupur caught her breath and smiled.

She was overwhelmed with joy and sorrow together. Her look was strange, Mayank couldn't quite get it clearly. His expressions showed the same when she held his hand, to his surprise, and said something like, "Thank God Mayank...accident!" then heaving a sigh of relief, she continued, "Safe...ahh..." She was a bit taken aback because, even his face had looked worried to her, she thought her statement could help.

Mayank couldn't understand a word of it. Was she reading his mind, how could she suddenly refer to what he was thinking from a while and how did she get to know.

Mayank just HAD to cut her, "Ek minute Nupur, thoda aaram se bolo...aur tum kis barey mein mein baat kar rahi ho...Accident?"

Nupur repeated her words a bit transposed this time and a bit audibly and slowly, "Mayank...woh accident...Thank God sab safe hain"

Mayank repeated in his own confusion, "Sab safe?" She certainly wasn't talking about what he was thinking; his dad's accident never gave him a chance to thank God ever. He managed to cut her again when it dawn on him and he had to tear his emotions away from himself which only helped while he asked, "Ek minute Nupur, kahin tumne uss din ki tarah koi bura sapna toh nahi dekh liya naa?"

Nupur nodded and Mayank felt it convenient to not talk about what he was thinking and divert the topic by having a go at teasing her, he had long back realized, in their phone conversation before marriage, that she was quite 'tease-prone'and took things to her self-esteem, besides, he was surprise that he was able to hide his emotions so well just now while he said "Well, agar tum yeh chahti ho ki main tumhe promise karoon, tumhara haath pakad kar...toh..."while he showed to her that she was holding it tight and he held it back now and he managed a laugh reminding her of the act of hers the other day.

Wasn't he just impossible? Her worried face was soon replaced with an open-mouthed shocked one and she looked away embarrassed at his perception of her and a bit angry at his 'as-usual-conclusive' judgement for her, she spoke, "Aisi koi baat nahi hai samjhe!!!"

As he laughed at her reaction, she disengaged her hand from his with a glare.

Mayank was getting to know of her habits now. Her stuttering way of speaking with worry was gone and her mood was totally changed. Apparantly, she must be convinced by now that her 'worrying-dream' wasn't real.

He trailed off his laughter and asked genuinely and surprising her again, "Kya sapna dekha?"

She looked at him judgingly for a while and realized why her dream had got so deep into her - his ways and plays of surprising her and holding her while still being so himself and respectful towards her and being there for her in his own way; being so stubborn and flexible at the same time, rude and sweet, so manly but so soft at heart, practical and modern approaches that he had always had helped her, it was totally in his stride that she worked today which had been a far-dream for her...his odd combination of smirks and genuine smiles, his secretive eyes and the know-able truth in them..all of it...how could he manage to be so full of everything making him perfect while still managing to be so indifferent about almost everything except what's necessary and the right thing to do? To look closely, his every quality was just flanked by a little arrogance and rudeness and how did she always look at those in magnifying forms and wondered about knowing him? He was just so simply himself and always spoke what he was...

But why was she suddenly so into his admirers list so much? He was still being so 'sadu' to her and teasing her still, she informed her stupid array of thoughts!

Mayank was perplexed at no reaction from her. All she did was to look at him and smile. As much as he loved that reaction of hers, yes, for a change it was from her and not him; he also wanted to know the reason behind her hyper behavior earlier. He would get back to that look from her later though, sure he would.

He reminded her of his earlier question again by calling out, "Nupur?" while he clicked his fingers in front of her.

Nupur was back from her reverie soon enough and explained her dream to him, as vague as it had been to her. Of course, she hid the parts where she felt restless from not finding him or or when she had frantically called out his name, either for helping her ut or to find out ways to get to him, which was all vague to her. Frankly, she couldn't as much as admit those to him while that kept her feelings for him - at his stake, where he may approve or disapprove of it and she didn't know how would he react to it. Besides, she didn't even know how deep her feelings went and what to conclude of those, even for her sake let alone explaining it to someone.

So basically, she drew a tangent to her dream in words so that Mayank got the basic idea that it was a REAL dream.

Mayank realized one thing, she hated the lonely feeling and also, he meant something to her, atleast. To think deep into it, her hyper reactivity told him that it was more than 'just' something and he took all the pride in having noticed it now and giving his own feelings some leisurely treatment for once.

He finally gave her a conclusion, "Nupur...it was just a dream...tum itna hyper kyun ho gayi thi?"

Oh he had hit it! She wasn't good enough at hiding the inevitable as nicely as she had thought she could. She asked back, "Matlab?"

Mayank said matter-of-factly, "Matlab simple...dreams bahot abstract hote hain...hamari fear, imagination, wishes etc ka result hote hain usually...you should never worry about them"

Nupur couldn't believe it. He was actually giving out theoretical knowledge to her in regards to her dreams? However, it was the truth, but sometimes Mayank can be so mindblowingly surprising to her. Perhaps, it wasn't what she had guessed that he had guessed, phew!

But as she looked at him again, she saw what his words meant. May be he was right; there was no reason for her to worry and get hyper. After all everthing was fine and that's what mattered.

She heard Mayank continue his words after a long pause though, "Kyunki jab sach mein kuch bura hota hai...toh naa koi sapna aata hai...aur nahi hamein pata chalta hai...bura toh ek jhatke mein ho jaata hai"

She saw it again, his expressions fluctuate from a gripping sadness to speaking in a factual tone and she couldn't resist asking, "Mayank tum kis ki baat kar rahe ho?"

Mayank blinked and smiled and said, "Main toh aise hi keh raha tha...in general, you know"

Nupur shook her head negatively, "Nahi...I don't know"

Mayank questioned defensively, "Hmm?"

Nupur moved a little towards him and asked, "Mayank...tumhe hamesha sach bolna hota hai naa...yeh toh achchi baat hai..toh tum sach ko chupate kyun ho?"

Mayank knew what she was getting at and just looked at her as she spoke further, "Tum mujhe woh bhi batane waale the jo tumne kaha tha ke ghar par kahoge aur yeh bhi..mujhe abhi sunna hai aur sab sach...abhi abhi!"

Mayank tried another weak attempt, "Nupur itni raat ko mujhe baatein karne ki aadat nahi hai...woh sapna bhul jao aur so jao, okay?"

Nupur held his arm before he could lie down completely, "Toh ab aadat daal do Mayank, kyunki mujhe logon se jyada der tak anjaan rehne ki bhi aadat nahi hai...toh tum thodi apni aadat badlo aur main thodi apni, okay?"

Mayank pressed his lips and got up unwillingly. He then told her all about his dad's accident that always haunted him somewhere even today. It was strange he had never shared all of his feeling with anyone regarding this, not even his Mom as he wanted to remain strong for her and they hardly talked about his Dad because it did hurt them both. It was actually he who refrained himself from talking about it more than his Ma. But today, he felt a bit relieved when he had finally let his feelings out to Nupur.

No he didn't cry, rather it was Nupur who had blinked a tear or two looking at the state in which he remembered everything about the accident and the way he said it. Her mouth had gone dry and she also saw that Mayank found peace in looking away from her and talk about it than look in her eyes. She rested her head on his arm and held it with her hand. It was so sad that Mayank had to go through it all and turn out so stiff a guy that she had heard from Ma that he was not, earlier.

Mayank confessed, "Nupur, if only I could have...main unhe bacha pata..ek chance, sirf ek chance milta toh..." he stopped saying suddenly and she looked in her eyes which showed traces of tears.

Nupur looked in his eyes where she saw the little boy who missed his father still and had taken up life as a task ever since he had left Mayank and Ma alone. Life was cruel, it really was to some. Even she had lost her Mother at such an early age that she had only heard about her more than she can remember 'lived with her'.

Mayank found it strange that Nupur could relate to his words so much and then it dawned on him that she had too lost her mother. But before he talked about it, she spoke in the most serious and mature voice that he had ever heard from her, "Mayank, par ab tum unki baatein kyun nahi karte. Aisa lagta hai tum unhe bhool jaana chahte ho..aisa mat karo...isse jyada dukh hoga..."

Mayank looked at her confused suddenly, "Tum bhi toh jaanti ho...ki kaise hum apni life mein logon ki achchi, buri saari baatein aur aadatein dheere dheere accept karte hain...unse dheere dheere judte hain...aur jab hamein aur hamari life ko unki aadat pad jaati hai toh achanak se ek din hamein sab kehte hain ki hamari life mein unka utna hi part tha..." he laughed sarcastically with a tear forming in his eyes, "Ki ab woh closed chapter hain..aur phir unhe yaad kar ke sirf dukh hi hota hai...aur kuch..."

Nupur talked in without letting him complete, "Par tum unki baatein nahi karte ya unke bare mein sochne se apne aap ko rokte ho isliye tumhe jyada dukh hota hai Mayank...jinko tum itna pyar karo, unke jaane ke baad kya tum unko ek sadness ki tarah hi yaad karo ya yaad hi mat karo...aisa toh nahi hona chahiye naa...hamein toh unhe..." she seemed to be looking for the right word and spoke when she finally got it, "...cherish karna chahiye...aur hamesha yaad karna chahiye ki woh hamari life mein aaye...isliye main toh hamesha apni Ma ko yaad karti hoon Mayank..."

Mayank was very amazed at her words and the way she had modulated her way of talking today. Was she the same Nupur that he knew? She was so mature and understanding, more than even he was, he felt at the moment! Wasn't it true that he wanted to remember him and stopped it in fear of hurt, loss while he could have re-lived those moments with him atleast? Though it may hurt sometimes but less than now, he realized.

Nupur had just grown in respect in his eyes today. She knew how to live, and she so deserved to be kept happy, and he realized that it was him who had to do it for her now. He hardly made her happy as far as he knew and feeling a little guilty for his behavior with her that so many times lead her to complain he said, out of the blue for her, "Nupur, I am sorry"

Nupur was so baffled at these words from him that she moved away to look properly at him to understand what he just said and why? She wondered out loud, "Kya?"

It seemed to Mayank he had a good flow with words today when he was being completely honest with her now as he said, "I am sorry ki maine tumhare saath kabhi kabhi thoda rudely baat kiya...aur shayad tumhe kabhi kabhi disrespected bhi feel hua mere words se...par tum hamesha itne problems mein pad jaati ho aur apna khayal bhi nahi rakhti...kissi ko kuch ho jaata hai toh usse jyada uski family ko fark padta hai...unhe sabse bada setback lagta hai...kya tum sochti nahi kabhi ki tumhare carelessness ka result tumhari family par kitna bura pad sakta hai?"

Nupur got a gist of all his references and words and also understood his concern but his word 'family' nudged a question in her...was he talking about himself and Ma or still about Bauji, Gunjan and Bui?

Nupur asked promptly, "Family?"

Mayank named all of them - Bauji, Gunjan, Bui, Ma as well as himself, to her surprise when she asked, "Tum?"

Mayank answered with a straight face, "Obviously Main bhi Nupur...ussi tarah jis tarah tumhe mere accident ke sapne ne worry kar diya tha..main itna bhi gaya guzra nahi hoon Nupur..."Besides, she had no idea at all how really concerned about her he was.

Nupur just smiled very sweetly.

Now this was a great sight for Mayank after long. She expressed things in the most beautiful manner possible. Mayank couldn't help smiling back a little and said, "Ab agar sab theek hai toh kya main so sakta hoon...look at the time raat ke 3:30 ho rahe hain!"

Nupur looked at the clock and wondered about the time. Oh-My-God, it had been so long a time that she and Mayank had talked for and it didn't even feel like it, she only wanted to ask for more because for the first time he was talking his heart out to her, and she could gladly say that she had started to know him actually.

Okay so she decided to chance one more brave little attempt and without thinking much she said, "Jee bhar ke so lena...par use pehle...mujhe check karna hai ki tumhare saare senses kaam karte hain ya nahi.." and before Mayank could express his astonishment, she tickled him in his stomach so that he had to start controlling his laughter. He really wanted to know how exactly Nupur's playful mood worked now!

He tried politely, from the effect of the recent talk, "Nupur nahi!" as she smiled cheekily at him.

He tried a straight face when he said, "No" while his resolve lasted for a small time when he was having little fits of laughter from her attempts.

She was only glad and completely ignorant to his pleas, she continued when he warned, "Nupur stop NOW!"

This time when Nupur paid no heed to his words, next she saw both her hands caught by Mayank at her back while he looked at her seriously, in her eyes, with strictness. He could moderate a bit in behavior but getting childish COMPLETELY could hardly be on his list. He was THE Mayank and will always be.
