part 3

Taani s old room- swayams house

swayam walked in with some more bags and dumping them on the floor after wondering where to put them- the room was full of stuff

"so done!" and sat on the edge of the bed and noticing the gift wrappings said," yeh saara wrapping tum kyun karrahin ho? kisi aur ko tho do"

"no bhai yeh sab mere close friends aur family ke liye hain"

swayam shrugged and lying on his back said," tum sab girls ek jaise ho , sharon bhi yahin karegi ...actually kriya s not like this " he added as an after thought. Taani who was looking at some gift wrappings looked at him, turned her face away , ok so kriya was different and she was a normal girl and asked him sharply," aapko kuch chahiye? tea? "

he turned to her looking quite tired shaking his head," so kaise ho?" she looked at him again and saw her favourite person - her bhai and her face broke into a smile - " kyun bhai? Achhi nahin dikh rahin?"

"achhi dikh tho rahin ho par achhi ho ya nahin- yeh batana mushkil hain" her smile disappeared , he continued ," i mean 3-4 din tumhaari tabiyat teek nahin thi ghar mein and suddenly yesterday se tum teek ho-in fact you r so excited aur happy aur pata nahin kya kya.."

She bent her head unable to answer immediately, he softened his tone and said- "tum yahaan aayi kyun taani?"

"shopping karni thi bhai Sharon bhabhi ke saath , aapko bhi dekhna tha" wrapping something

"ok tum yahaan aayi kyun?"

"sabko invite karna tha " wrapping something

"ok tum yahaan aayi kyun?"

She lifted up her face and met his eyes, he smiled at her his eyes showing his concern, seeing in her someone whom he had seen all his life so closely and still didnt know everything about .

taani s eyes filled up at his concern and she smiled genuinely," aap jaanthe ho tho pooch kyun rahe ho bhai? " she wiped her eyes and said in a clear voice before he could reply," but before you ask, mujhe kisine force nahin kiya hain shaadi ke liye..yeh meri decision hain " she smiled," so bhai chill" and got up," ab aap yeh sochna shuru karo ki yeh jo stalemate hain Sharon bhabhi ki family aur aapki relationship ka uska kya karenge" she added spiritedly

swayam stood up- he knew fully well she wouldn't want to share anything more with him but he knew she needed to know he was with her , she needed to hear it , " look taani...i...tum...i just want you to remember ki im with you if you need me anytime , ki tum kabhi akeli nahin ho and i promise to support you completely...agar ghar ki against bhi ho, tho bhi" his tone showing how worried he had been, he was even now, he continued ," but i want you to promise me one thing-" she looked," koi bhi confusion hain ya problem, tum mobile off karke, kamre ko lock karke nahin baith sakthi, just...just dont do that again. sabko ..."

she looked apologetic ," sorry bhai..i know...bas.." and bent her head," kabhi kabhi dil ko sambhaalne mein do teen din lagjaathe hain " she whispered softly andthen looking up smiled . swayam realised his suspicions had been right- she had had a tough time deciding and patted her on the head

taani hugged him placing her head on his shoulder sideways muttering thanks her eyes moist- he placed a kiss on her head and as she moved back said- " i cant believe ki tumhaari shaadi hain " his eyes moist . she laughed ," aap itne buddhe nahin ho aur main itni choti nahin bhai"

---------

Taani s side of the story-- teen din pehle

Taani walked into her office room slightly late looking like she was atleast ten years older than yesterday. One more girl walked in and started telling her a lot of things none of which made sense to her. ...

Shaadi? Par tum itna upset kyun ho taani? Engagement tho hua tha na..tho phir shaadi bhi hone hiwaala tha and its not like its sudden or anything..

TAANI the girl screamed , taani looked at her and sighing ," can you please leave it and go? Main dekh ke baad mein aapko batadoongi"

"ok...but r u okay? You are not ...smiling"

"main teek hoon " she said dismissively still unable to smile , the girl left. Taani threw herself on the seat , she didnt know what she was thinking of ...since she had agreed to the wedding in the morning, her spirits seemed to have been sucked out of her leaving her soulless and empty, her face reflected the emptiness she felt inside

The mobile rang- she ignored it...it rang again and again...she knew it would be vishesh...she just didnt want to talk to him ...not at this present moment anyway...she ignored it. the whole world was against her , dus minute ki peace nahin milthi...she cursed yeh vishesh tauiji aunty daadi, naanima sab milke mujhe corner karrahen hain bas. She shook her head , got up and walked to the window

She stared at the view outside her window, there was just vast expanse of blue sky..she was never nature person, Vishesh ko yeh sab achha lagega. itne sulje hue, itne mature, itne...perfect. pata nahin main unse mature hona seekh kyun nahin paathi.. kitna alag hain mujhse wo-

she sighed mujhe nahin karni thi abhi shaadi aur isse baahar bhi nahin nikal sakthi, engagement hi nahin karna tha ...yeh main soch kya rahin hoon. sab tho meri marzi se hi hua tha ...aur ab bhi koi torture nahin kiya hain kisine...taani u should be ashamed ki tum sabke baarein mein aisa soch rahin ho.. and felt a guilt wash over her yeh moody moody rehne ka problem tumhaara hain . baaki sabko blame mat karo ..she looked down from the window...problem tujheme hain

The ground was hardly seen, she bent pressing her face to the glass and tried to see below nahin dikh rahaan hain, pata nahi pavement hain ya grass iske neeche...kya farak padtha hain, this is seventh floor, agar jump karogi tho pavement ho ya grass bach tho nahin sakthi...what was she thinking? She moved back from the window glass immediately like she was stung , she was sweating..this thought was sudden taani yeh kya bachpana hain? tumhaari shaadi horahin hain apni marzi se jiske saath tumhaari sagaai hui thi us ladke ke saath , koi stranger ke saath nahin, bachpan se jaanthi ho usse...nervous hona alag baat hain but itna upset o r disturbed hona??? Kya hua hain? itna disturbed or depressed tho tab bhi nahin hua tha jab rey ko choda tha...

And her thoughts stopped...she knew what was wrong ..in an instant all the misgivings hesitations that she had had while saying yes to her wedding with vishesh --everything came rushing REY her heart whispered

Mobile rang again loudly disturbing her hearts whispers , stopped and then a msg beeped , she picked it up frustrated and guilty - Vishesh

Taani i know ki sab ghar pe tumhe emotional blackmail karne ki koshish mein hain, both my daadima and yours . dont give in darling. Agar tumhe nahin karni hain tho there will be no wedding now J

she was suddenly angry she couldn't blame him,she clutched the mobile in her hand and felt it vibrate again-just remember ki im with u ( vishesh ) She felt a guilt envelope her like a shawl...she was so thankless, so ungrateful.. she moved to the window again

main bhaag jao kya? She looked at the world spread beneath the window- it was vast..kahin bhi jahaan mujhe kisike bhi baarein mein sochna na pade

there came a knock at the door and it opened, she sprang back from the window afraid that whoever came in would know what she was thinking- it was tauji and another uncle of hers with Vishesh s dad

" taani, they told me you agreed!" blah blah balh it just went on and on and on...the happy congrajulations and hugs and side hugs and pat on the head ..it suffocated her , the guilt she felt prevented her from showing the depression that she seemed to be sinking into..she just wanted to run...she looked at the mobile in her hand, she still hadn't msged Vishesh back, worst she knew he would understand her dilemma

-----------

And rey had done nothing right the whole day, he had messed up the lists of students, entered dates wrong and not corrected mistakes in his students

-----------------

Taani s room - late in the night and the next morning

Taani on the bed - she seemed to have reached a state of thoughtlessness- her head had vibrated with the congrajulations of every single person in both the houses till she had switched off - her mobile and her brain . locking her room sat on the bed for hours..All voices seemed to merge with one another in her head - vishesh , naanimaa that guy in the elevator, her secretary, vishesh s mom ...his brother, her cousins...bhai...she held her head between her hands closing her ears ..she still heard one word REY but that came from her heart and it came more and more clearly- just as all the others words became indistinct

itna hyper kyun horahin hoon main? Stop it taani ...mujhe ho kya rahaan hain? kahin main paagal tho nahin hoagyi na??

She got up from the bed when the voice in her heart became stronger - walked up and down the room starting to talk loudly to herself to drown the voice -( imagine taani walking in rey style)

i cant become like this, itne saalon baad achanak se rey ki yaad...kyun? i thought i had moved on vishesh ke saath ab sab kuch judaa hain...sirf main nahin, hamaare families, hamaare businesses ...aur honestly kaafi had tak mera time mera affection sab kuch...aur ab suddenly!!

yeh aapki itni buri aadat gayi nahin na rey- meri bani banaayi life ko bigaadne ki..i so hate you rey..i hate you

And she stopped , the curtain near the window moved. Her heart leapt up to her throat, would he come? she waited for a second looking at the curtain expectantly ...the window banged loudly once due to the wind.it wasn't him She moved by habit to the window and pulling the curtains aside started to close it...she felt a wetness drip on her arms as she closed and wondered if it was raining, no it wasn't.

It had been when rey had come in to tell her sorry about breaking up..it wasn't now. she stopped closing the window and held the curtains in a fist and suddenly she realised the wetness was her tears

Stop it, she wiped her eyes vigorously willing the tears to go back, tum bachi nahin ho, college jaanewaali teenager nahin ho taani, ek nahin do do businessness sambhalna hain tumhe, do do ghar manage karne hain.

I know , main khush tho thi...par achanak se yeh shaadi ke baat sunke...shaadi matlab meri rey ke saath koi connection hi nahin rehsaktha abh se and her eyes filled up again ki main unko kabhi ...STOP IT

wo tho jab engagement hui tab se..

i know and i haven't remembered him ...atleast is tarah nahin...whats happening to me hey krishnaji

So what do you wnat to do? I dont know...speak to someone... kisse? Bhai? Nahin wo rey ke dost zyaada hain...sharon bhabhi...wo bhai ko batadenge...and she thought of numerous ppl she knew wo sab rey ko nahin jaanthe, rey aur mere relation ke baare mein nahin jaanthe...main kya karoon...kisse pochoon? Actually poochoon tho kya poochoon?

She moved back and sat on the bed, holding a pillow in her hands my problem is ki Mera tho best friend mera honewaala husband hain..unse main apni boyfriend ko miss karne ki baat nahin karsakthi !

She laughed wiping her tears , laughed again mirthlessly im such a cheat aur pata bhi nahin ki cheat kis ko karrahin hoon...vishesh ko rey ko ..

Ya khudh ko! And wiped her eyes again, the tears that hadn't flowed for two years flowed continuously wetting her dress and the pillow she hugged to herself

Glimpses of rey came in her minds eye.. his hands as he held her arms when he first told her he loved her, of his dance , like a movie in her mind of the brush of his lips on her cheek - she shook her head to clear the images-but another memory came in- of him in bandaged form when he tried to stop her from leaving college...of him fighting with that guy"wats his name shivam for her sake... she watched as if she was a third person in the story...she gave up , gave in to her heart wanting to remember each detail each day that she had spent with him

him trying to convince her not to get engaged holding her by the arms...she felt a warmth behind her neck as she remembered her first date and how comfortable they had been with each other as soon as they had confessed ... she wiped her eyes

Bas taani aur kitna rona hain? unhone tumhare saath bohot galat bhi kiya tha..wo bhi tho yaad karo..some nice survival instinct inside her told her...aur vishesh ko dekho kabhi bhi tumhe takleef ..

I know... she shut the sensible voice up...par yeh competition nahin hain dono ke beech ki achhai ka..yeh bas mera pyaar hain and i cant help it .. she wiped her eyes again

------------------------

She didnt know when she slept , the next morning her family got worried that she had suddenly developed a temperature and was drowsy ...she vaguely remembered telling them that she wanted to sleep and stayed in the room on her bed alternating between periods of waking up and sleeping-

Glimpses of her days in st Louis came in continuously- his hug for her bday in the college , the valentine gift, her desperate attempts to learn dance, them getting caught by swayam in her room- bhai! She laughed the goa fest when he had first said how scared he had been of losing her...she wiped her eyes...meeting in the fireescape ...he had never said no to any of her demands..no he hadn't..he had only said no to herself..the sensible voice told her again..

she turned to the other side of the bed closing her eyes as the worried voices of swayams mom and her naanima came in to give her food ..disturbing her - she just wished they would go and felt guilty for thinking of their concern like that
