PART 7
" mere paas tumhaare inn betuke sawaalon ka jawaab dene ke liye time nai hai , ek tho subha se bhooki pyaasi hoon aur upar se tumhaari drama " she said and left the room
" jawaab nai diya , saakshi kabhi kabhi mujhe lagta hai ki mein bohut zyada kush kismet hoon ki mujhe tum mili , maine tumhaara dil kitna dukhaya fir bhi tum mujhse pyaar karti rahi , tum mujhse naaraz ho fir bhi tum yeh nai keh paayi ki tumhe mujhse pyaar nahi , I love you so much saakshi " he said to himself and took out a navy blue colour sherwani and went to wear it
" kya baat hai arjun , smart lag raha hai tu , kya lagta hai tuje , khol payega tu uska vrat ?" Sameer asked arjun as soon as he came out
" hope tho kar raha hoon ki who mujhe apna vrat kholne de , lets see " arjun answered
" arjun sir , aap tho bohut dashing lag rahe hain " chotu said coming in
" thank you " arjun replied
" par yaar , tujhe tho indian attire pasand nai , aur yeh tho tu geet ki shaadi mein pehne wala tha na , Aisha ke force karne par hi tune isse khareeda , tho aaj yun achanak se kaise pehen liya ?" Sameer asked
" saakshi humesha mujhe aise kapdon mein dekhna chahti thi , aur tu tho jaanta hai na , maine pehle uski kisi bhi kwahish ko pura nai kiya , tho maine socha ki aaj uski who kwahish mein poori kardoon " arjun replied
" sir chalein , warna aapki saakshi aapke jaane se pehle hi vrat khol degi , waise sir aaj suhaani bohut cute lag rahi hai , use jaaneman ne bilkul princess jaise tayyar kiya " shree said . he had come to call them
" who toh princess hai hi " chotu said
" matlab ? saakshi chali gayi ? " arjun asked
" haan arjun , saari ladkiyan jaa chuke hain , who katha hota hai na , pooja se pehle " Sameer said
" chalein sir " chotu asked
arjun looked at himself for one last time in the mirror and left with his team
***************************************
" suhaani ..." she called out
" baby mumma takh gayi hai , aap please mumma ki baat suniye " saakshi requested
" nai , mujhe apne papa se milna hai , abhi " she insisted
" mumma aapne promise kiya tha ki iss saal papa aayeenge mere birthday mein , uss kunal ne fir se kaha ki mere papa nai hai " suhaani said angrily
" mujhe apne papa se abhi milna hai " she insisted
" baby aise zidd nai karte , aapko pata hai na mumma ne subha se kuch khaya nai hai , tho aap mumma ko aise tang karenge ? aur aapke birthday ko tho time hai " saakshi said
suhaani went to her mom
" mujhe papa chahiye " she said and started crying
" baby , aapke papa aapke paas jald hi aa ayenge " saakshi said
" mujhe papa chahiye " she said again
saakshi hugged her baby and started patting her
she had feeded her dal rice so she knew that suhaani will fall asleep moreover arjun had also feeded her dosa , so she had a full stomach
she kept on patting and slowly suhaani drifted to sleep
arjun had seen all this . he also was crying
" mujhe saakshi ko jaldh se jaldh mannana hoga , suhaani ke liye " arjun decided and walked towards her
saakshi tried to stand up but all of a sudden she felt weak and couldn't stand up
arjun understood that saakshi had weakened a bit so he touched her shoulder and she turned and looked at him
he took suhaani from her arms and patted her so that she is not disturbed and helped saakshi to stand up
she stood up with his help and he held her by her waist so that she doesn't fall down
she avoided meeting his eyes
" Aisha ne bataya ki uss bache ne suhaani ka dil dukhaya , usne suhaani se kaha ki uske paas papa nai hai , mein samaj gaya ki suhaani ka dil toot gaya hoga , iss liye mein yahaan aaya " arjun answered her unasked question
she didn't say anything
" saakshi we need to talk " he said
just then Sameer came , " sam , tu suhaani ko andhar leke jaa "
he handed over suhaani to Sameer and waited for him to go
" saakshi tumhe nai lagta , ki humaare beech jo kuch bhi hua hai uska sabse zyada asar suhaani par ho raha hai ?" arjun asked
" I know ki tumhaara gussa bilkul sahi hai , par saakshi humari beti , uske bare mein socho "
" uske bare mein hi tho soch rahi hoon " saakshi answered
" aur aaj mein jis situation mein hoon uske zimmedaar sirf tum ho arjun "
" you threw me out of your life "
" you crashed my heart and now its beyond repair "
" ek waqt tha arjun , jab mera dil jaanta ta ki kuch bhi ho jae tum mujhe jaan boochkar hurt nai karoge "
" tumhaare bina kuch kahe mein tumhaari dil ki baat samaj jaati "
" par aaj , tum kehte ho fir bhi mere dil ko yakeen nai hota , tumhaare aankhen bhi mujhe yakeen nai dila paati "
" suhaani ki baat kar rahe ho na tum , kal tak tumhe pata bhi nai tha ki tumhaari koi beti bhi hai "
" itefaak se tum mere ghar aaye arjun , mujhe dhoodte hue nai "
" apne dil se poocho arjun , kya tumne kabhi bhi ek pati hone ki koi zimmedaari nibhayi ? nai "
" kya tumne kabhi bhi meri kushiyon ka khayal rakha ? nai "
" tum jaante the ki mein tumhaari rah dekhti thi , fir bhi tum kabhi bhi ghar jaldi nai aate the "
" tum jaante the ki mein tumhaare liye dinner banati thi , fir bhi tum bahar se khana khakar aate the "
" mere dil ko tum jitna dukha sakte ho utna tum kar chuke "
" mera jitna insult tum kar sakte te utna tum kar chuke ho"
" ab mere dil mein kuch nai bacha , sivaai dard ke , who dard jo tumne diya , who dard jo kabhi nai mitega , who dard jiska tumhe koi ehsaas nai " saakshi completed
now she was completely tired so she sat down
he also sat down " mein jaanta hoon ki main tumhaare saath ek monster ki tarah pesh aaya , par saakshi kya tum mujhe sudharne ka ek chance nai dogi ? kya humaara rishte ko tum ek chance nai dogi ?" he pleaded
" nai " she answered
" kyun ki agar iss baar tumne mera dil thoda tho meri bachi apne maa ko bhi kho degi " she completed and tried to stand up but fell right into his arms
they had an eyelock , she was fainting
" saakshi " he called out and she came to her senses
he looked up to see the moon
" aaj ke din yeh chaand kahaan chalaa gaya " he muttered
and looked down at her , she looked extremely weak and her eyelids were closing continuously
" saakshi , apne vrat thod do " he said
" pagal ho gaye ho tum " she answered
" tumhe ne kaha na , mein yeh sab deserve nai karta " arjun said
" haan , par iska matlab yeh nai ki mein apna vrat tod doon " she answered angrily
" chodo mujhe , mein apna khayal rakh sakti hoon " saakshi muttered
" aankhe khuli rakhne ki bhi takat nai hai , badi badi baatein kar rahi ho " arjun said
she tried opening her eyes but she could not keep it open for more than 2 seconds
" saakshi , chaand aa gaya , aur sab log terrace ja rahe hain " lisa came and said , she smiled seeing saakshi in his arms
" lisa , tum saakshi ke vrat waale samaan apne saath lekar chale jaana " arjun said and she nodded
he lifted her in his arms and started walking
" arjun , chodo mujhe , mein sambhal loongi " saakshi said
" chakar aa raha hai , lekin gussa tho naak par baita hai " arjun said
" chalna tho door , tumme khade rehne ki bhi taakat nai , so just keep quite , apna gussa baadme ke liye bacha ke rakha , mein yahin hoon " arjun said and she quitened
he was right , she felt extremely weak
as he was walking all women were discussing whether he was saakshi's husband or not
" aap sab apna vrat khol lijiye , saakshiji behosh ho rahi thi issliye mein unhe yun utakar le aaya " arjun told them
saakshi stood up and did all the rituals
she held the charni and saw the chand and closed her eyes and then turned and saw arjun through it
" tumhe saamne aane ko kisne kaha ?" she asked angrily
he handed her the aarti plate and said " jaldi se karo iske pehle koi dekh le "
" mujhe tumhaari aarti nai utaarni " saakshi said
" abhi tak maine inme se kisi ko nai bataya ki mein tumhaara pati hoon , jaldi aarti kardo warna sabko apne aap pata chal jayega " arjun said
she applied the tika and did his aarti fast
" abhi tak kisi ne nai dekha , don't worry " he said
" mera vrat tum nahi kholo ge " saakshi said
she lifted the glass of water to drink on her own right then Sameer decided to help his friend
he knew saakshi was weak and even a slight push can make her fall
" jab iraada accha ho ,tho galat kaam bhi sahi ho jata hai " he tried to justify himself and went near saakshi and gave her a light push and as sameer had thought she fell right into his arms
arjun immedialety made her drink water and feeded her a sweet
his team had covered him so no one saw him breaking her fast
he lifted her and took her downstairs and made her eat
this time she didn't let him feed her
so arjun went to get suhaani who was sleeping in next room
**********************
" Sameer , tumse maine yeh expect nai kiya " saakshi accused him while eating
" tumne mere weakness ka fayda utaya taaki arjun meri vrat khole " saakshi said angrily
" saakshi , I am sorry , but trust me , mujhe koi afsoos nai " Sameer said
" saakshi tum jaanti ho ki inn rituals ka kya matlab hai , jab tum arjun ki lambi umar ke liye vrat rakh sakti ho tho uske haath se apna vrat khol nai sakti ? tumhaara gussa bilkul sahi hai , tum arjun ko gaali do , maaro peeto jo kuch bhi karna chahe karo , tumhaara poora poora haq hai par aaj tumhaara vrat kholne ha haq use hi hai " Sameer said
" Sameer , maine yeh vrat ..." saakshi started
" kam se kam mujse tho joot mat bolo , main jaanta hoon ki aaj bhi arjun tumhaare zindagi mein kya hai " Sameer said
saakshi kept quite
" mein tak hayi hoon , suhaani kahaan hai ? mein ghar jaana chahti hoon " saakshi said
arjun brought suhaani , she went to him and snatched suhaani from him and kept patting her
they all sat into their car with Sameer and Aisha in front and arjun and saakshi behind
shriza and chotu were in another car
the ride to home was quite and arjun kept looking at saakshi and his daughter
" maine life mein kitna kuch kho diya , tumhaara wiswaas khone ka sabse zyada gham hai mujhe , par mein haar nai maanunga , har haal mein mein tumhe yeh yakeen dilaaunga ki mein ab badal chukka hoon aur mein suhaani ke papa banne layak hoon " he decided
" oye arjun kahaan kho gaya tu ? hum ghar pohunch gaye" Sameer said
" mein saakshi ko uta deti hoon " Aisha said
" koi zaroorat nai hai Aisha " arjun said and got down and went on her side and opened the door and took suhaani out
he slowly went into saakshi's bedroom and laid suhaani on the bed and kissed his sleeping princess
he went down again and lifted saakshi and took her also to her bedroom and laid her next to suhaani , he kissed her forehead also and kept looking at her
just then lisa came
" sir , aap aaj yahin rukh jayiye , mein hall mein so jaungi " lisa said
" jaaneman , tum humaare room mein so jao , mein aur chotu hall mein so jayenge " shree suggested
" teek hai specky " lisa said
they all said goodnight to each other
arjun kept seeing his wife and baby sleep
