PART 5
Astha was walking in the road slowly thinking what her MD told to her in the evening. "I know dear. I am not willing to settle over there. Especially, I don't want to leave you. But, my son is so adamant and they wish to be with us for some days. Hence I had taken this decision. After all the proceedings are over, I will hand over this company to the person. He is my friend's son and you will not find any difficulty to work for him. He is such a jovial person"
Every day, she loves to walk in this road with trees surrounded. A small walk for five minutes to her home in this way makes her day. But, today, she was in no mood to enjoy that. "Oh Astha! How many days will you stick to them as a puppy? They too have a son and have to fulfil his wishes. Also, you can't be like this. You have to stand up on your own. You can't rely on them. Ya. Rahul and Tina are there. But, still. Now, the big problem is when aai and baba comes to know that your MD is gonna change. As usual they will start off their sermons that Please come to us and so on...' Koi baat nahi. I will pacify them"
She was smiling lightly and had a determined mind. "Whoever the MD may be, it's my duty to work for them. I will do it sincerely. New MD, here I come"
Just then, there was drizzle from the sky. Soon, it turned to a heavy shower. She stretched her hands and enjoyed the cool rain. Shortly there was a child in the woman coming into the world and playing in the rain.
Astha was playing in the downpour nicely and then she heard a familiar voice calling her by her name. She turned to look at the person and saw that it was her very own Shlok. "Shlok!" she whispered.
He came towards her and held his hands above her head and scolded in a friendly manner, "You are still the same. Why are you getting wet in rain yaar? What will I do if you fall ill?"
Astha- "Tum ho na Shlok, mere kayaal rakhne ke liye" she said lovingly andhugged him. They were in the same position for some minutes and that's when Shlok asked, "Dance?"
How could she refuse to her sweet lover? She immediately accepted it and they were dancing for the song below.
Pee Loon Tere Neele Neele Naino Se Shabnam,
Pee Loon Tere Geele Geele Honto ki Sargam,
Pee Loon Hai Peene Ka Musam,
Tere Sang Ishq Kaari hai,
Tere Sang Ik Khumari Hai,
Tere Sang Chain Bhi Mujhko,
Tere Sang Bekarari hai...
Tere Bin Jee nahy lagta
tere bin jee nahy sakta,
tujh pe hai haare maine waare do jahan
Kurbaan Marhban Ke Main To Kurbarn,
Sun Le Sadaaa...
Hosh Main Rahon Kiyun Aaj Main,
Tu Meri Bahon Main Simti Hai,
Mujh Main Samayi Hai Youn,
Jis Tarah Tu thodi Ho Nadi,
Tu Mere Seene Main Chubti Hai,
Sagar Tumara Main Hon.
Pee Loon Teri Dheemi Dheemi Lahron Ki Chamcham.
Pee Loon Teri Saundi Saundi Sanson Ko Har Dam,
Pee Loon Hai Peene Ka Mausam,
Tere Sang Ishq Kaari hai,
Tere Sang Ik Khumari Hai,
Tere Sang Chain Bhi Mujhko,
Tere Sang Bekarari hai...2
Sham Ko Milu Jo Main Tujhe,
To Bura Subha Na Jane
Kiyun Kuch Maan Jalati hai Yeh,
Har Lamha Har Ghari Har Pahir,
Bhi Teri Yadon Se Tadpa Ke.
Mujhko Jalati Hai Yeh,
Pee Loon Main Dheere Dheere Jalne Ka Yeh Ghum,
Pee Loon In Gaure Gaure Hathon Se Humdum,
Pee Loon Hai Peene Ka Mausam.
Tere Sang Ishq Kaari hai,
Tere Sang Ik Khumari Hai,
Tere Sang Chain Bhi Mujhko,
Tere Sang Bekarari hai...2
Tere Bin Jee nahy lagta
tere bin jee nahy sakta,
tujh pe hai haare maine waare do jahan
Kurbaan Marhban Ke Main To Kurbarn,
Sun Le Sadaaa...
When they finished, Astha lead her hands to caress his soft check. ALAS! He vanished in the air leaving Astha in the deserted road alone. "Shlok!" she cried. But, her tears were not seen due to the rain.
I promised for Shlok's entry in this update. But, kept it for the next. Actually, I have typed it. Yet, thought to stop with this. So, to pacify, a small memory of Ashlok. please forgive me for this lame...😳
