Blue Lotus3 Arshi ss Last part pg93 - Page 25

I dedicate this part to silverfairy who wants to see how Amar-Madhubala fell in love.



Khushi:A few days back while travelling I saw a car on the way.I saw a familar face inside the car which was parked on the road side.I took a few seconds to realize that it was Lavanyaji's husband Rahulji.Still I was confused.Because I had seen Rahulji only once.Moreover how can a dead person come back?I was confused.But I noted down the car number.I was'nt able to sit peacefully.I decided to find out whether it was only my illusion or truth.Though I struggled hard I found out who the owner of the car is.It was Ambaraji's car.I found her address and went there.I met her.

Flash back...

Khushi:Ambaraji?
Amb:Yes...
K:Heard that you are new to this city.
Amb:Yes,I got transfered here.
K:Are you alone or...
Amb:Why do you want to know all these?
K:2 days back I had seen a young man in your car.Is he your son?
Ambara kept quiet.
K:Why are you not saying anything?
Amb:Who are you?Why are you questioning me like this?
K:Why are you getting angry?I just want to know one thing.He looks like a person I know who is supposed to be dead.That's why i asked you.
Amb:If he looks like a person who is dead what is the use?
K:I want to know whether he is Rahulji.
Ambara was shocked.
K:Please tell.Please don't hide anything.It's very important to see Rahulji.Otherwise...
Amb:He is Rahul.
Khushi was stunned.
K:Why Rahulji is with you?Why is he not returning to his wife?Do you know what happened after Rahulji's exit?
She told her everything.Ambara was shocked.
K:Please...I want to see Rahulji.
Amb:Go inside.He is there.
Khushi went inside.She saw Rahul sitting on the chair.
K:Rahulji!
He looked at her carefully.Slowly he said:Khushi?
K:Yes.So you remember me.Rahulji,why are you staying here?Why are you not returning to Lavanyaji?
Rahul kept quiet.
K:I thought you were nice.But you are a crook.You don't love your wife.You ignored her intelligently.
R:Enough Khushi.I can't hear anymore.You are saying that I don't love Lavanya?She is my life.
K:Lie.
R:It's the truth.After the accident I was in the hospital for a long time.I was unconscious.When I regained consciousness I saw my aunty near me as my nurse.Through her I came to know that our son Dev is no more.I was shattered.I know Lavanya was also shattered.
K:She is waiting for you.Then why don't you go back to her?
R:Look at my legs.
Khushi looked at his legs.
R:My legs can't move Khushi.I can never walk.
Khushi was shocked.She did'nt know how to react.
Khushi looked at him unbelievingly:Rahulji...

R:If Lavanya sees me in this condition she will be more upset.The whole life she will suffer looking after a handicapped husband like me.I don't want my Lavanya to suffer.I want her to live happily.If I am dead for her some dayshe can get married to someone and live happily rather than living with a hopeless person like me.
Khushi's eyes got filled up with tears.
K:No Rahulji.You are wrong.What you did for Lavanyaji's happiness has only destroyed her life.You know what happened after you left her?She lost her mental balance.She searched only for you and Dev.She did'nt see anyone else around her.
Khushi told him what happened in Lavanya's life till date.Rahul was shocked.Tear drops fell from his eyes.

K:If you were there with her when she was depressed about losing Dev you could have shown your shoulder to her to rest upon.Then she would'nt have lost her mental balance.She lost her mental stability as she lost both of you together.If at least you were there with her she would not have been in this condition.
R:My Lavanya...because of me...
K:She is alright now.Don't be scared.But if she has to remember her past you have to face her.On coming sunday there is a party at her house.You have to come there along with Ambaraji.I hope you will come if you truly love Lavanyaji.
Rahul shed tears.

Present...

Lavanya cried caressing Rahul's legs.Rahul burst into tears.
They shared a teary eye lock.

Chahoon bhi toh main kaise kahoon
Saari jubaan te dil kehta hai
Lehar sapno ki kaise ginu
Dariya behta hi rehta hai

Keh rahi hai kya yeh suno, meri khamoshiyan
Raat se hai lambhi kahin dil ki yeh dastaan
Kaise kahoon... kaise kahoon...


L:Rahul...I just need you.What if you can't walk I am there to help you.With me you can go anywhere like a normal person goes walking.

Tumse mujhe yeh kehna tha woh keh raha tha hum-dum
Ho saamne toh kya kahoon, kya kehna tha hum-dum
Kaise yeh, jazbat hai
Iss dil mein toh, din-raat hain
Honthon pe kyun aane se yeh sharmate hain
Aankhon mein kyun yeh har ghadi aa jate hai


Rahul cupped her face in his hands.
R:I am sorry Lavanya.I love you.

Hum kyun kahe, joban kahe, ik baat hai jana
Dhadkan kahe, dhadkan sune, woh raat hai jana
Dil bole bin, hai bolta
Sab raaz hai, yeh kholta
Jab khwaab hai, jazbaat hai, ehsaas hai
Toh kehna kya, toh sun.na kya, awaaz hai


Lavanya held his hands and cried.

Chahoon bhi toh main kaise kahoon
Saari zubaan te dil kehta hai
Lehar sapno ki kaise ginu
Dariya behta hi rehta hai

Keh rahi hai kya yeh suno, meri khamoshiyan
Raat se hai lambhi kahin, dil ki yeh daastaan
Kaise kahoon

Everyone became emotional seeing them together.
Lavanya looked at Khushi:Khushi,you proved once again that you are my best friend.Only you can do such great things.I don't have words to thank you.You gave me my husband...my jewel.I don't know how to thank you.

K:Lavanyaji...you live happily with Rahulji.That's all I want from you.
Rahul:Khushi,almost everyday Lavanya talked about you.I used to wonder how she can praise her ex-husband's wife like this.But now I understand why Lavanya loves you so much.You are really a great person Khushi.You made me understand that love has nothing to do with handicap.

Arnav:Rahul,don't think you will be like this forever.You will be perfectly alright after undergoing treatment.Be confident.
Lavanya smiled:Yes.Very soon I am leaving for America with Rahul for treatment.
Khushi smiled:Next time when we see,Rahulji will be walking.

Rahul and Lavanya smiled.

Arnav smiled at Khushi:Khushi...I your heart is more beautiful than a blue lotus.I am proud of my wife.

Khushi was very happy.
Madhubala smiled at Khushi:Khushi...Thank you so much.what you did for my sister in law is beyond kindness.

K:Madhubalaji...what are you saying?
M:You don't now how great you are Khushi.
Amar:Khushi,though not purposefully I always used you for my sister's happiness.But today I understood how small I am in front of you.What you did for my sister can't be compensated.Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

K:Amarji...please..let us forget it.
Madhubala smiled:Amar now I feel that I got you Amar back.

Amar:Madhu...
Mad:Amar,do you remember those sweet days of ours?

Music was going on in the back ground.Arnav held Khushi's hand and swayed slowly to music as Khushi can't strain herself anddo fast movements in this stage.Khushi remembered how she felt sad when Arnav danced with Lavanya in the last party.Now like a dream she is dancing with Arnav.

Lavanya held Rahul's hand and they looked at each other's eyes emotionally.

Amar-Madhu started dancing along with the other couples.They were sharing a lovely eye lock.

Jab koi baat bigad jaaye jab koi mushkil pad jaaye
Tum dena saath mera o humnawaa
Na koi hai na koi tha zindagi mein tumhaare siva
Tum dena saath mera o humnawaa

Amar:Yes Madhu...I remember everything.How can I forget those days?I saw you first at the prom night where you were dressed in red.

I just kept looking at you.

Madhu:Even my eyes fell on you automatically.
Amar:But to cover up our attraction towards each other we threw attitude on each other.
Mad:We both pretended to be arrogant to each other.

Amar:But finally I got fed up of pretence and decided to end it.

Flash back...
Amar stood in front of Madhubala.As usual she put the mask of attitude:What?What do you want now?
Am:Enough of this stupid bseless fight man.Let us end this.
Madhu could'nt believe it:You mean...?
Amar smiled softly:Will you be my friend?

Madhu smiled sweetly

and nodded her head.Slowly she held his hand.He was very happy.

Ho chaandni jab tak raat deta hai har koi saath
Tum magar andheron mein na chhodna mera haath

Present...

Amar:Our friendship's first moment...that smile was so beautiful.
Madhu smiled.
Amar:When I confessed my love to you the way you blushed...

Madhu started blushing.

Jab koi baat bigad jaaye jab koi mushkil pad jaaye
Tum dena saath mera o humnawaa


Mad:Our first date...we went boating.It was so romantic.

Na koi hai na koi tha zindagi mein tumhaare siva
Tum dena saath mera o humnawaa

Am:Then our wedding...

You looked like a Princess in the bridal attire.

Madhu smiled:And you looked like a Prince.
They both smiled.
Madhu became emotional:Amar...I thought you forgot everything and you changed a lot.I got scared whether I lost my Amar.

Wafadaari ki vo rasmein nibhayenge hum tum kasmein
Ek bhi saans zindagi ki jab tak ho apne bas mein
Am:Due to pofessional tensions and personal problems I could'nt give enough attention to you.Circumstance made me really rough and selfish.That does'nt mean that I forgot everything.My love for you has'nt decreased Madhu.Still I love you a lot.
Madhu rested her head on his chest:I love you too Amar.


Wafadaari ki vo rasmein nibhayenge hum tum kasmein
Ek bhi saans zindagi ki jab tak ho apne bas mein

He caressed her.She was lost in that moment.

Jab koi baat bigad jaaye jab koi mushkil pad jaaye
Tum dena saath mera o humnawaa

He smiled and they continued dancing.

Na koi hai na koi tha zindagi mein tumhaare siva
Tum dena saath mera o humnawaa(Jurm).


Arnav and Khushi went to see off Lavanya and Rahul to US for Rahul's treatment.
Lavanya hugged her parents,Arjun,Madhubala and Khushi.
Arj:My little sister...all the best.
La:Thanks bro.
M:Take care Lavanya.
K:Lavanyaji...I am sure that you will come back with a cured Rahulji.
Lavanya smiled:I hope so and I know that your prayers will be there.
K:Definitely I will pray.
Arnav:All the very best Lavanya.
La:Thank you Arnav.
Lavanya and Rahul flew to US.
Madhubala held Khushi's hand:I don't know when we will see next.But I am giving you a small gift for what you do for us.
Madhu gave her a cover.
Khushi could'nt believe it:What is the need of a gift Madhubalaji?

Arjun smiled:I know nothing can replace what you did for us.Still this gift is for our own happiness.
Khushi took it from Madhu.
Khushi's eyes fell on Madhu's saree:By the way Madhubalaji...your saree looks very pretty.I loved it.
Madhu giggled:Really?Then you will like the gift for sure.

Khushi could'nt understand it:What is the gift?

M:That you can open and see in your house.
Khushi smiled.
M:By the way Khushi..thank you for your compliment.But I really feel that this saree will look better on you.
Khushi just smiled.
They all parted their ways.


Khushi opened the gift cover and was surprised to see a saree which was similar to the saree which Madhubala wore at the airport.She wore the saree with excitement.She went to the kitchen.
Khushi started cooking in the kitchen.

Arnav peeped into the kitchen.He was surprised to see her saree as he was reminded of Madhubala's saree.

Arnav said in his mind:That's why Madhu said that if Khushi liked her saree she will surely loved the gift.Khushi got what she adored.
He enjoyed seeing her cook.Unexpectedly he came from behind and embraced her.
K:Arnavji,what are you doing?Naniji will come now.
A:So what?Let her come.Can't I romance my wife?
She smiled.

K:Arnavji,how is my saree?This s Madhubalaji's gift.
A:I understood.So you got a similar saree.You had adored the saree she wore at the airport.Right?
Khushi smiled:But I never thought that I would get one like that.Madhubalaji is so sweet to gift one like that.
A:Even If she had'nt given you one I would have bought it for you,because as Madhu said it looks better on you.
Khushi blushed.
Suddenly they heard Jayashree's voice.
"Chottu...where are you?"
A:I am doing some official work Nani.
Khushi giggled.
J:Official work or helping your wife in the kitchen.
Arnav was embarassed.Immediately he moved away from Khushi.
Khushi giggled seeing his facial expression.
A:How did Nani understand that I am here?
J:Chottu...keep helping your wife.
Arnav and Khushi became shy.Arnav pulled her close to her.


Khushi opened the window and saw the the windows of the neighbouring house open.
K:After Anjaliji went this house was closed.But now it seems that somebody is staying here.Who?
Khushi was confused.
