thanks everyone. Here is part 32:

[SIZE=7]PART 32:

Tanya hurriedly sat in her car, without paying attention to either the driver or where he was taking her. After about 20 minutes into the drive, she realized that they were on a dark, poorly lit street and nowhere near familiar neighborhoods.

"Driver! Kahan jaa rahe ho? Yeh raasta galat hai…."

Angad stayed quiet and continued to drive.

"Kaun ho tum?" Tanya leaned forward and tapped the driver's shoulders.

The car swerved to a side street and before Tanya could realize where they were, her door was pulled open, and a pair of legs stood there urging her to step outside the car.

A fearful Tanya came out and saw Angad standing with his hand holding the car door for her.

Tanya's eyes were burning with rage, "yeh kya zabardasti hai Mr Angad?"

Angad shut the door to the car and pinned Tanya to the car, his arms on either side; his face inches away from hers. He whispered in her ears, "Kripa….yeh zabardasti nahin hai….main tumhey bas kuch samjhana chahta hoon…..kyon mere saath saath apne aap ko bhi saza de rahi ho?"

Tanya turned her face away, trying to get away from his warm heavy breathes, "Please leave me Angad….warna main police ko bula doongi….," she clenched her teeth in anger.

"Police? Kripa main tumharey liye har saza bhugatney ko tayyar hoon…..bas ek baar yeh keh do ki tum abhi bhi mujhsey pyaar karti ho…," his face brushed against her hair.

Tanya gave out a groan, but took control of herself, "Pyaar? Main aapko jaanti bhi nahin tho pyaar ka tho sawaal hi nahin hota…"

"Apne dil se poocho Kripa….kya tumhare dil bhi yahi kehta hai ki tum mujhsey pyaar nahin karti?" he kissed her ear lightly, sending chills along Tanya's spine.

Tanya pushed Angad away and started running along the dark and deserted street.

Angad followed her, "Kripa! Kripa!…please meri baat suno…..you can't do this to yourself and to me!" Angad was tempted to bring the subject of Prateek, but resisted, as he knew she would misconstrue all his efforts as bribery to get his son!

Tanya kept walking without paying any heed to Angad's pleads.

Angad ran and caught up with her. He grabbed her elbow and pulled her towards him, "Kripa…I am losing my patience…itna guroor kyon? Kya meri sazaa yahi hai ki maine tumhey apni jaan se bhi zyada pyaar kiya hai? Tumharey pyaar mein main pagal ho gaya hoon…bilkul diwana ho gaya hoon…..kya tum itni patthar dil ho gayi ho ki apne Angad ka dard bhi nahin mahsoos kar sakti?" he had tears in his eyes.

Tanya pulled her arm out of his grip and finally looked into his eyes, "Mr Angad….aapko meri zaroorat nahin…ek doctor ki hai….you are a crazy man! Aap ko koyi aisa sadma pahuncha hai ki aap pagal ho gaye hain…..main aapko kitni baar kahoongi ki main Kripa nahin hoon…I am Tanya damn it! Please leave me alone…..if you really want to see me happy, then stop chasing me!" she walked away, leaving Angad heart broken and full of tears in his eyes.

Song in the background (thanks Shelly for the link and the song)

"tere dar par" from "aashiqui"

Tere dar par sanam chale aaye
Tu na aaya to hum chale aaye *2
Chale aaye, chale aaye
Tere dar par sanam chale aaye
Tu na aaya to hum chale aaye

Bin tere koi aas bhi na rahi
Itne tarse ke pyaas bhi na rahi
Oh, bin tere koi aas bhi na rahi
Itne tarse ke pyaas bhi na rahi *2
Ladkhadaaye kadam, chale aaye *2
Chale aaye, chale aaye
Tere dar par sanam chale aaye
Tu na aaya to hum chale aaye*2

iss se pehle humpar haste raat
banke nagin jho humko dasti raat
Leke aapna bharam chaale aaye*2
Chale aaye, chale aaye
Tere dar par sanam chale aaye
Tu na aaya to hum chale aaye *2

Angad walked back to the car and followed Tanya. He stopped the car next to her, "TANYA!….please gaadi mein baith jao….main tumhey drop kar doonga…..this place is not safe for a woman to walk alone…."

Tanya just gave him a cold look, "yeh sadak tumharey saath se tho zyada safe hogi….."

She just walked off as Angad kept driving behind her.

A few yards ahead, a truck was parked at a corner. There was a group of men sitting by a fire and playing cards and drinking booze. They saw a young woman walking alone on the deserted street. The men got up and surrounded Tanya, "kahan jaa rahi hai itni raat ko? Kiski kismet jagaaney jaa rahi hai?"

Tanya was scared, but tried to put up a brave face. In her heart she was glad, that Angad was just a few yards behind her. No matter what happened, she knew that Angad would not let anyone harm her.

Angad stayed in his car and watched the goons trying to harass Kripa. He rolled his window down so he could hear what was going on.

The goons started getting closer to Tanya and messing with her clothes and touching her body.

Tanya turned around and saw Angad's car parked at a distance, but she saw no signs of Angad. She started shivering with fear and tried to defend herself. She tried to runaway, but the men grabbed her waist and pulled her towards them.

Angad clenched his fists and got out of the car. His eyes were burning in anger; he could no longer see his Kripa being harassed like that. He ran towards the goons and extended his hand for Kripa to grab.

Tanya was relieved to see Angad and held onto Angad's hand, as he pulled her out of one of the goon's clutches.

Tanya screamed, "Angad…please bachaa lo mujhey!"

Angad took care of the goons and shooed them away.

His hand's and lips were bleeding after the altercation. He turned around and saw Kripa shivering in a corner, looking at him with grateful eyes.

Angad walked to her and said coldly, "you can decide whether you still want to drive with this crazy man, or walk all alone……don't expect me to follow you this time……mujhey koyi shauk nahin hai tumhey chase karne ka!"

Tanya's ego prevented her from saying anything nice. She just said a curt, 'thanks!" and sat inside the car, but in the front passenger seat this time. Angad smiled and thought, "Kripa….tum ab theek jagah baithi ho……"

Angad started the car and winced as his left hand felt sore from the gash he had just received. Tanya looked at the blood flowing from the hand resting on the gear. She remembered the last incident when Angad had cut his hand and she had been sprayed with his blood on her face and her "maang." Tanya took out her handkerchief from her purse and gave it to Angad, "yeh baandh lo Angad…."

Angad gave her a cold stare and ignored her, "no thanks Miss Tanya! Apne ghaav mein khud bhar loonga…..," and drove off.

tnanks everyone. here are parts 33 and 34:

[B[SIZE=7]]PART 33:

Angad dropped Tanya at her apartment complex. Tanya was surprised that he knew where she lived, but was in mood to ask any questions or argue with him.

She was glad to be back home after the tumultuous evening.

"Tanya! Kaisa raha music launch? I am sure everything must have gone well…" Nishant welcomed her back.

Tanya nodded politely, "haan….arrangements bahut achche the….sabb ko album bahut pasand aaya…..Prateek so gaya kya?"

"Great! Lekin tum thodi udaas si lag rahi ho, " Nishant commented.

"Nahin…bas party thodi lambi ho gayi….aadat nahin hai na mujhey…thanks Nishant….main ab soney jaati hoon…Good night!"

Tanya shut herself in her room and after checking on Prateek, stood at the window, thinking about the events of the evening.

"Angad ko itney dinon baad meri yaad kaise aayi? Wo koyi kaam bina matlab ke nahin karta…..mujhey chhodney ke baad usney kabhi wapas mujhey contact karney ki koshish nahi ki…Nainital wapas kabhie nahin gaya…..tho ab achanak mujhpar itna pyar kaise…..kya wo sach much mujhsey pyaar karta hai….ya ab phir koyi khel khel raha hai….main kaise vishwaas karoon?"

Angad paced up and down in his bedroom all night. He was both angry and sad at Kripa's refusal to accept the truth and disregard for the love they shared. He was more than sure that Tanya was indeed Kripa. Her body language and reaction to his presence and touch was evidence enough.

Angad pounded his fists and thought, "Kripa! If you want to play games with me…I can also play games! I will make you accept the truth sooner or later, chahey ismein meri jaan hi kyon na chali jaaye!"

Angad called Mishti and poured his heart out.

"Angad….just take it slowly…..why did you have to confront her like that?….you need to earn her trust….itna push karoge usey, tho she could misunderstand your intentions…..samjho zara tumney uskey dil ko kitni gehri chhot pahunchai hogi, jo usney apni identity hi badal di hai….take it slowly Angad!"

"I think you are right Mishti…but I can't control myself when I see her…..you know how crazy I am about her…"

"tabhi tho wo tumhey sach much ka pagal samajh ney lagi hai," Mishti started laughing.

"Misht! It is not funny! Yeh mere dil ka sawaal hai…..tumhey mazaak soojh raha hai.."

"serves you right! Itney saalon se kitni ladkiyon ke dil thodtey aaye ho….now you are getting a taste of your own medicine……Kripa sach much tumharey liye sahi ladki hai….she will teach you how not to play with other's emotions…." Mishti laughed again

"Tum meri dost ho ya Kripa ki?"

"Dono ki!….that is why I have to make sure I let both of you see each other's perspectives…OK ab mujhey neend aa rahi hai…good night!"

NEXT FEW DAYS:

Tanya tried to resume her routine as before. She tried to keep Angad's thoughts from haunting her mind day and night. She became restless and irritable. Nishant was surprised at the change of her temperament.

"Tanya…aaj kal tum kuch naaraz si rehti ho….dekho paper mein tumhari kitni achchi photo aayi hai.." Nishant pointed out a photograph from the music launch party.

Tanya just glanced at it, "haan dekhi hai maine….aisa kuch nahin hai Nishant…shayad main apni nayi album ke baare mein thodi nervous hoon…aur kuch nahin….."
Nishant was satisfied with her answer and kept staring at another photograph in the paper, "yeh aadmi kahin dekha hua lagta hai……let me think…"

Tanya looked over his shoulder and shuddered at the photograph- it was Angad singing on stage at the music launch function.

"aap kaise jaante hain isey?" Tanya got worried

"Yaad aaya…..yeh kuch sir-phira sa aadmi hai…kuch din pehley Almora train station par apni patni ki death ke baare mein poonchney aaya tha….lekin kuch information liye bina hi chala gaya tha…..in fact mujhsey meri life ki saari information lekar chala gaya tha…I think he is kind of crazy!"

Tanya's fears were probably not unfounded, "iska matlab Angad meri information lene Almora tak pahunch gaya tha…tho us toofani raat ko wohi tha jiska haath meri…oh no…iska matlab mera dupatta bhi…aur phir wapas chhod gaya yahan….oh no! He has been stalking me ever since……tabhi usey mera ghar bhi…kahin Prateek ke baare mein tho nahin jaanta? Mujhey satark rehna padhega….I will have to be on my guard! May be he does really care about me….par kaise yakeen karoon?" she ran to her room. Nishant was puzzled at Tanya's sudden disappearance, "why is she acting so strange? Mishti se poonchunga ki kaam par tho koyi problem nahin ho rahi?"

TARANA MUSIC SCHOOL:

Mishti came up to Tanya, "Tanya…jaanti ho tumharey liye TV se ek offer aaya hai…..ek naya music program launch ho raha hai…they want some new talent to kick off their show….isn't that exciting?"

Tanya smiled and nodded, "Mishti tumney mere liye itna kuch kiya hai….koyi apna bhi nahin karta….."

"Tanya….kis ney kaha tum meri apni nahin ho? Waise I forgot to compliment you on your performance on the music launch night…it was fabulous."

"Mishti yeh batao…..wo kaun tha jisney end mein gaana gaya tha?"

Mishti rolled her eyes, "Oh wo? He is a good friend…Angad naam hai uska….kyon pasand aaya tho milwaaon tumhey?" she winked at her.

Tanya turned pale and lowered her eyes, "nahin..nahin I was just curious….Ok main chalti hoon…"

Tanya left the classroom, lost in her thoughts, "Tho Mishti Angad ko jaanti hai….pataa lagaana padhega ki kitni achchi tarah jaanti hai…..kahin Angad Mishti ko meri haqeeqat na bataade…aur phir Mishti usey Prateek ke baare mein…Oh god….yeh Angad ney mujhey kis museebat main daal diya…"

NEXT DAY:

Tanya was shopping at a clothes store for a formal saree for her TV performance. She was checking out sarees at a popular store in the mall; she picked a light green saree and was wondering how it would look on her, when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around and saw Angad standing with a beautiful red saree on a hanger, "yeh color tum par zyada achcha lagega…trust me…"

Tanya frowned at his sight, "aap yahan women's store mein kya kar rahe hain?"

"jo tum kar rahi ho….saree select kar raha hoon apni mehbooba ke liye!" Angad smiled mischievously

Tanya took a deep breath and rolled her eyes, "Angad…aap abhi bhi mujhey kisi aur se confuse kar rahe hain…."

"Yeh saath mein jewelry set bhi pehen lena….it will go well…." Angad ignored her last comment and placed the set in her hand.

"Main zyada jewelry nahin pehnti…"

"jaanta hoon…tabhi bahut simple set liya hai…."

"Aap kaise jaante hain?"

Angad came forward and forced Tanya to back up against the aisle with sarees hanging from a stand.

As Tanya kept backing up against the row of sarees, Angad kept getting closer to her. His lips were now close to hers; he traced his finger on her face, neck and stopped at the neckline of her blouse. He whispered into her lips, "yeh sawaal apne aap se karo Kripa…sorry TAAN-YAA….tumhey poonchney ki zaroorat nahi honi chahiye…..," he pretended he was about to kiss her, but pulled back and walked away.

Tanya was stunned and stayed frozen among the sarees. Her heart was pounding; she felt like her legs were like jello at that moment……why did Angad manage to stir her like that even now?…..why did she feel like melting in his arms every time he came close to her? She finally came into her senses and straightened herself. She went to the check out counter and absent-mindedly paid for both the sarees and the jewelry set.

Later at home when she opened her packages to try out the sarees, she could not help admitting that Angad's choice was definitely better…..it would look better onscreen than her choice. What had made her purchase the saree? Was it a subconscious desire to please Angad? Or was she just respecting someone else's taste?

A FEW DAYS LATER AT THE TV STUDIO:

Tanya arrived at the studio a little nervous. The show was going to be aired on a local channel, so she was not concerned about it being watched by her family in Nainital. She looked ravishing in her red saree and elegant jewelry set chosen by Angad.

Mishti accompanied her, "wow Tanya…you look great! You have good choice in clothes….nice set also," Mishti complimented her elegant look.

Tanya just lowered her eyes, "thanks…."

After Tanya completed her performance, she walked out of the studio and bumped into a tall well-dressed man. She looked up and saw Angad staring at her.

"Aap yahan kya kar rahe hain?" she asked

"dekhney aaya tha ki meri choice kaisi lag rahi hai…" Angad stared at her from top to bottom with his piercing gaze. He rolled his tongue and commented, "beautiful! Kaash tum sach much Kripa hoti…tho main…"

Tanya got a little uneasy at his gaze; it was almost like he was mentally undressing her from top to bottom.

"Tho..kya karte aap?" she hesistated

"Tho main tumhey apni baahon mein uthaa kar seedha apney bedroom mein le jaata…." He smiled mischievously.

Tanya turned red with embarrassment and excused herself, "main chalti hoon…Angad you are really crazy!"

Angad turned around, "just kidding TAAN-YA! Tum kabhie Kripa ki barabari nahin kar paaogi….."

Tanya ran out of the studio, panting and full of rage at his last comment.

Angad thought, "kripa…ab main ek aisa kaam karoonga ki tumhey accept karna hi padhega ki tum kaun ho!"

A FEW DAYS LATER:

Tanya received a courier package at home.

"Yeh kahan se aaya hoga?"

She opened the package and saw a beautiful book inside.

She admired the beautiful cover and binding of the book. Her jaw dropped when she saw the title of the book: "Yaadein- a collection of poems written by Kripa Sharma"

She turned the pages of the book and was shocked to see all her poems that she had written all her life, published in this collection. She was even more shocked to read the prelude, "dedicated in memory of my love Kripa Sharma….by Angad Khanna…"

"yeh kya mazaak hai Angad? Meri notebook tumharey paas? Iska matlab mere jaane ke baad tum Nainital gaye the? Yeh notebook tho mere us bag mein thi jo train mein mila tha……oh God! Angad…kyon kar rahe ho yeh…..meri notebook publish karne ki ijazat kisney di tumhey?"

Tanya knew she could not confront him about this book.

The phone rang.

She picked up the phone, "Hello! Kaun….Angad? Yeh kya mazaak hai? Kripa ki book kyon publish ki aapney?"

"Mazaak? Tumhey Kripa se kya lena dena? Just enjoy the poems…..shayad kuch yaad aa jaaye tumhey…"

"Angad!" Tanya sounded frustrated, "Kripa ki permission ke bina kaise publish kar di yeh book?"

"Kripa ki permission? Matlab tumhari permission?" Angad enjoyed listening to the irritation in her voice.

"Angad….anyways…poems achchi hain…Kripa was a good writer…thanks for the book…." Tanya tried to calm down, not wanting to give Angad another reason to doubt her identity.

"You are welcome!" Angad hung up and smiled at the headset.

Later, Angad thanked his publisher friend, "thanks yaar….ek hi copy publish karne ke liye thanks a lot!"

….to be continued……

[SIZE=7]PART 34:

One evening Tanya arrived home late in the evening to find a listless Prateek in Nishant's arms.

"Nishant! Prateek ko kya hua?…..Arre isey tho bahut tez bukhaar hai!" Tanya felt his forhead.

"Haan…main tumhey phone karne hi waala tha….shaam se kuch dull sa ho raha tha….khana bhi nahin khaya.." Nishant said

Tanya picked Prateek in her arms, "kya hua mere bete ko?" She could feel the heat from his little body, as she snuggled him to her chest.

"Is samay kaun sa doctor milega?" she flipped through the phone book.

"Tanya…tum isey dawa do…main Mishti se poonch leta hoon….uskey kayi contacts hain…"

Tanya nodded and took Prateek to her bedroom.

"Hello! Mishti? Wo Prateek ki tabiyat kuch kharaab ho rahi hai…kisi doctor ka naam de sakti ho?"

Mishti: "haan..abhi apni diary mein dekhti hoon….kya hua Prateek ko?"

Angad was in Mishti's room, checking out Prateek's birthday photographs. He heard her say something about Prateek. He jumped up, sat next to Mishti and whispered, "kya hua mere bete ko? Kya bimaar hai? Main bhejta hoon doctor unke ghar…."

Mishti rolled her eyes at Angad's anxiety and relented, "Nishant….main hi Dr Rao ko phone kar doongi…..don't worry" she hung up and gave Angad an angry look, "jaanti hoon tumhara beta hai…par mera bhi kuch lagta hai…..trust me Angad"

"Mishti..yadi Prateek bimaar hai tho usey sabsey achcha doctor milna chahiye….Dr Rao nahin, Dr Tiwari ko phone karta hoon……hand me the phone…" Angad snatched the phone from Mishti.

Mishti just shook her head, "uffo Angad…you have become crazy! Do as you please.." she walked away.

An hour later, Dr Tiwari was at Tanya and Nishant's door.

Dr Tiwari checked Prateek out, "don't worry…viral fever hai…yeh kuch dawaayian hai…..1-2 din mein theek ho jaayega"

Nishant said, "prescription dee jiye…main abhi chemist se dawa lata hoon…," and left.

Tanya walked with Dr Tiwari to the door, "thanks doctor….aap yahan itni raat ko mere bete ko dekhney aaye…I am very grateful"

"No problem Ms Tanya…aakhir Angad sahib ke bete ka sawaal hai….unke liye tho main kuch bhi kar sakta hoon…"

Tanya was stunned, "Kya kaha aapne? Angad sahib?"

"Haan…unhone hi phone kiya tha mujhey aur yahan bheja hai….OK good night Ms Tanya!" the doctor left, leaving Tanya in a state of shock.

Tanya went back to her bedroom in a daze, "iska matlab Angad ko sab pata hai….wo jaanta hai ki Prateek uska beta hai….aur Mishti ko bhi sab maloom hai…..tho yeh sab pyaar ka khel Prateek ke liye kiya jaa raha hai….Angad tumsey yahi umeed thi mujhey!…..Ek pal ke liye mujhey laga tha ki tum badal gaye ho….par insaan kabhi badal te nahin hai…you disgust me Angad! I am so glad I did not fall for your charms this time….I can't believe this…."

Tanya shuddered at the thought that she had actually started believing in Angad lately, and was beginning to fall for his charms once again… "kitni pagal hoon main….ek baar chot khaakar bhi nahin samajh paayi…..ab main Mumbai mein ek din bhi nahin reh sakti…..Prateek ke theek hote hi main apna resignation de doongi…."

As she waited for Nishant to return with the medicines, she took her suitcase out and started emptying the closets. She checked all the drawers and shelves to make sure she did not leave anything. As she was checking one of the drawers in the dresser, her hand grabbed a piece of cloth, tucked away in the back. She was horrified when she saw the piece of cloth, "yeh tho mera shawl hai….yeh tho Angad ke paas tha….jab hum sab Nainital mein camping ke liye gaye the….tab Angad ne apne paas rakh liya tha….yeh shawl is ghar mein kaise?….Oh God! Kahin yeh ghar bhi tho Angad ka nahin? Mishti aur Angad dono ne milkar mujhey dhokha diya hai….." she buried her face in the shawl and started sobbing.

Nishant came back with the medicines and got worried when he saw Tanya's red eyes and her suitcase outside.

"kya hua Tanya?"

"kuch nahin…"

"kuch tho hai! Aaj kal tumhari zindagi mein kuch tho chal raha hai….kya baat hai?" Nishant got upset and raised his voice.

Tanya gave the medicines to Prateek and put him to sleep.
Tanya thought about what she would tell Nishant. She came out of her room and sat next to Nishant on the couch. Nishant was obviously disturbed and worried about Tanya.

"Nishant …..yaad hai tumhey us din paper mein ek aadmi ki photo dekh kar tumney kaha tha ki wo aadmi kuch sir-phira hua hai.."

"Haan..haan…kya naam hai…AK naam hai uska"

"Angad Khanna hai wo…..he is a crazy man…mere peechey padha hua hai ki main hi uski patni hoon…aur ab wo Prateek ko bhi apna beta maan ne laga hai…"

"What? Is he out of his mind?" Nishant turned red with anger, "how can he think you are his wife?Uski patni tho accident mein mar gayi thi?"

"Shayad meri shakal uski patni se milti hai…"

"He is a sick man! Lekin tumhey kaise pataa yeh sab?"

Tanya briefly told him about Angad stalking her and insisting that she was Kripa and not Tanya. Tanya, of course, hid her real identity from Nishant and painted a biased picture of Angad for Nishant.

"That is wrong Tanya! Main kuch karta hoon…don't worry!"

"Nishant…..pehle main Mishti se baat kar loon…abhi aap kuch mat kariye….please"

"Theek hai….Prateek ko theek hone do…then we will take care of this matter…tum chinta mat karo….I know how to handle people like that!"

Tanya changed up and sat down on her bed beside Prateek. She stroked his hair and kissed him, "Prateek…tum sirf mere bete ho…..tumhey mujhsey koyi nahin cheen sakta…chahe wo tumhare papa hi kyon na ho…," her tears fell on his cheeks as she snuggled with him.

Song in the background: beautifully sung by Bhupinder and Anuradha Paudwal

"zindagi mein jab tumharey gham nahin the" from "Dooriyan"

http://www.dishant.com/album/tanhaiyan.html

anurdha:
zindagi mein jab tumhare gam nahi the
itane tanhaa the ki ham bhi ham nahi the

anuradha:
waqt par jo log kaam aaye hain aksar
ajnabi the, vo mere hamdam nahi the

Angad was driving back from Mishti's house, worried about his son. Dr Tiwari had reassured him that it was not a major illness and Prateek would be fine in a day or two. Angad was desperate to see Prateek and Kripa. He knew she would be worried about Prateek, just as he was…. "Kripa tumhari ego ki wajah se main apne bete ko gale bhi nahin laga sakta…..kaash tum samajh paati ki main tum dono ke bina kitna akela hoon…"

bhupindar:
besabab tha tera milna rehguzar mein
haadase har mod par kuch kam nahi the

anuradha:
hamne khwaabo mein Khudaa bankar bhi dekha
aap the, baahon mein do aalam nahi the

bhupindar:
saamane deewaar thi Khuddaariyon ki
warna raste pyaar ke purakam nahi the

As their tears flowed, both Angad and Kripa stayed up all night, blaming each other, but unwilling to run into each other's arms and forgetting their grievances……kaisa yeh pyaar hai……

…..to be continued….

[B[SIZE=7]]PART 35:

Tanya took the next couple of days off from work, while Prateek was recovering. She called up the management office of the apartment complex, "kya aap bataa sakte hain ki flat # 304 ke makaan maalik kaun hain?"

"abhi bataa tha hoon madam…" the manager put her on hold, "madam…yeh Mr Angad Khanna hain….kya koyi message hai unke liye?"

"No..thanks!" Tanya hung up the phone. The pieces of the puzzle were finally falling into place.

Next day, she went to the school with her resignation letter. She took a taxi to work, as she no longer wanted to use Angad's car. She left Prateek with a neighbor, who had become fond of Prateek lately.

"Mishti madam tho aaj ghar se hi kaam kar rahi hain….," she was informed by Mishti's receptionsist.

Tanya could not wait till the next day. She decided to go to Mishti's house.

Damini greeted her at the door, "aao Tanya…Prateek kahan hai?"

"usko nahin laayi…Mishti se kuch kaam tha aunty…"

"Haan…jaao …wo oopar apney kamrey mein hai…Naina aunty bhi hain uske saath."

Tanya climbed the stairs and stood at Mishti's bedroom door. Naina and Mishti were looking at some photographs. They did not see Tanya standing at the door.

"Yeh dekho Mishti….is photo mein Prateek bilkul mere Angad jaisa lag raha hai….kyon?" Naina proudly held Prateek's photo and commented.

Tanya's eyes were burning with anger now- "Mrs Naina Khanna?…..ab samajh mein aaya wo Prateek par itni lattoo kyon ho rahi thi…aakhir unka waaris jo tehra….poora pariwar ek jaisa hai…selfish and ruthless!"

Suddenly something caught Tanya's attention. She saw a photograph on Mishti's bedside- it looked like a graduation photograph- there were 3 people in the picture: Mishti in her graduation outfit, Angad and Prithvi!

Tanya was shocked. She stepped back to hide her tears, "tho yeh teeno doston ka khel hai…ek baar mere saath khelkar inko chain nahin mila…ab mere bete ko bhi khareedna chahte hain….."

Mishti looked up and saw Tanya, "arre Tanya! Tum kab aayi? Aao…tumhey Prateek ki birthday ki photographs dikhaati hoon…come inside…"

Naina also looked up, "aao beti…kitna pyara ladka hai tumhara…."

Tanya looked at both of them coldly; "Mishti…yeh mera resignation letter hai…please don't ask me any more questions…" she walked out, leaving an aghast Mishti standing with the letter.

Mishti was stunned, "resignation? Kya matlab?" Mishti knew something was wrong, "aunty mujhey jaana hoga….baad mein milti hoon…" Mishti picked her bag and followed Tanya, "TANYA! Wait for me…tum iss tarah bina kuch explanation diye bina kahan jaa rahi ho?"

Tanya kept walking and went out to hail a cab.

Mishti pulled out her car and stopped it next to Tanya, "Tanya…sit down! Let's go to the office…if you want to talk business…let's do it the correct way!"

Tanya relented and sat next to Mishti.

MISHTI'S OFFICE:

"Haan ab bolo Tanya…yeh resignation ka kya chakkar hai…"

Tanya had a lump in her throat and could barely speak, 'Mishti….Angad ne tumharey saath kitney ki shart lagaayi thi? Mere bete ko paane ke liye usney kitney paise daav par lagaaye hain?"

"Kripa! Yeh tum kya keh rahi ho?"

"Tho mera shaq theek nikla….tum mere baare mein sab jaanti ho….yeh bhi jaanti ho ki main Kripa hoon!"

"Haan…sab jaanti hoon Kripa!"

"Tho yeh drama tumney aur Angad ne saath saath racha hai…Almora radio station par mera geet pasand aana….phir mujhey yahan laana…..ek accha ghar, gaadi, Prateek ki birthday…yeh sab tum dono ne mere bete ko khareed ne ke liye kiya hai na…jaise Angad ne Prithvi ke saath mujhey khareeda tha….ab wo tumhare saath bet lagaa raha hoga?" Kripa's voice was trembling in anger.

Mishti was furious and smacked her hand on her desk, "KRIPA! Bina sach jaane kya bole ja rahi ho tum?"

"Main Angad ko achchi tarah pehchaan gayi hoon ab…."Kripa stood up in anger.

"Galat! Kripa tum na tho khud ko samajh thi ho aur na hi Angad ko! In fact, I think Angad understands you better than you understand yourself!"

"Tum tho uski dost ho na….you will not find any faults in him…will you?" Kripa retorted.

"Come with me Kripa…." Mishti dragged Kripa's hand and took her to Angad's office, "yeh hamare MD ka office hai….Angad IS our MD!…dekho uske office mein….andar aao…"

Kripa followed Mishti and was shocked to see a nursery in the corner, baby toys all over, a framed picture of Angad and Prateek and another one of Kripa beside it.

"Haan yeh sach hai ki Angad tumhey Mumbai naukri ke bahaane se laaya tha…par sirf iss liye ki wo tumsey jee jaan se pyaar karta hai…..Prateek ke baare mein tho usey baad mein pata chala….Prateek ko usney bahut pyaar diya hai….par tumhey kabhie iss liye nahin bataaya kyunki wo tumhey jaanta hai….he knew you would misunderstand his intentions…..let me show you something else….." Mishti held Kripa's hand and took her to the entrance of the school.

"Yeh stone dekh rahi ho…..kya likha hai is par?…This music school was constructed in memory of my love, who's first love is music….yeh school usney tumhari yaad mein banaaya tha jab sab ko lagaa tum train accident mein marr chuki ho…..but he never gave up hope and kept searching for you till he heard your song on the Almora radio"

"Lekin Mishti…wo shart? Jab mujhey shart ke baare mein pata chala, tho wo Nainital chhod kar chala gaya….mujhey ek baar bhi contact nahin kiya….yadi aisa hi tha tho mujhey manaa bhi tho sakta tha….but he never bothered to look back….why?"

"Yeh sawaal tum apni saheli Aaliyah se kyon nahin karti?" Mishti clenched her teeth.

"Aaliyah?"

"Haan…Aaliyah ne Angad se kaha tha ki Prithvi tumsey bahut pyaar karta hai….jab usey yeh pataa chala tho Angad apney dost ke raaste se hath gaya…..usey bahut bura laga ki usney apne dost ka pyaar cheen naa chaaha….par jab tak main Angad ko wapas Nainital le gayi….sab kuch khatam ho chuka tha…..we were all informed about your death…..tumhey tho maloom bhi nahin hoga ki tumhare papa kitney bimaar ho gaye the tumhari maut ki khabar sun kar…."

Kripa felt like burying herself in the ground, she was ashamed of herself, she felt dizzy, "Papa? Kya hua unhey? Wo theek tho hai na?"

"Theek hain wo….unka saara ilaaj aur zimmedaari Angad ne le li thi….Angad has supported both your parents in the last 2 years…..tumhari maa tho jaan deti hain Angad par….wo Angad ko apne bete se bhi badhkar maanti hain….tumharey baad Angad aur Prithvi ne hi un logon ko sahara diya hai…"

"Mishti…Angad ne mujhey yeh sab kyon nahin bataaya?" Kripa was sobbing away.

"Kyunki wo tumhara pyaar wapas jeetna chahta tha…khareedna nahin!….Yadi usney tumney aur Prateek ko ek accha ghar aur aaram diya tho kya harz hai usmey?…..Kya uska haq nahin hai ki wo apni family ko khushi aur aaraam de….paisa hona koyi jurm nahin hai Kripa!….He felt guilty and responsible about your humiliation in front of your family….iss liye wo tumhey izzat dena chahta tha…..aur pyaar se tumhey wapas apne ghar le jaana chahta tha….you know Kripa….Bhagwan se bhi kabhi ek galti ho jaaye, tho hum insaan shayad usey bhi maaf kar dein….par tumney tho Angad ki ek galti ki usey kitni badhi sazaa di hai…..aur khud ko bhi…..kaash tum Angad ko samajh paati….he is crazy about you…aur tumney ussi ko pagal karaar kar diya…." Mishti had tears in her eyes.

Just then Mishti's phone rang, "kya kaha? Angad hospital mein….kaun se? Main abhi aati hoon…." Mishti did not look or wait for Kripa. She ran as fast as she could.

Kripa stood frozen, as she was still trying to absorb what all Mishti had just said.

Kripa realized that Angad was in the hospital. She ran after Mishti, but Mishti had already zoomed off in her car.

Kripa hailed a taxi, "driver…please us gaadi ke peech peech chaliye…wo kisi hospital jaa rahe hain…jaldi..please!" The driver could sense urgency in Kripa's voice.

As they were driving, Kripa was impatiently looking out for Mishti's car. She tried to call Mishti, but her cell was busy. Just then Kripa received a call from Nishant, "Hello! Nishant!"

Nishant was in a hurry, "Tanya meri baat suno! Maine us pagal Angad ko thikaaney lagwaa diya hai…..wo ab tumhey kabhi pareshaan nahin karega!"

Kripa was horrified at what she just heard. Before she could say anything, Nishant had already hung up.

"Nahin!…Aisa nahin ho sakta…mere Angad ko kuch nahin ho sakta….Nishant tumney yeh kya kar diya?" Kripa started sobbing in the taxi.

…to be continued…..
