Jai-BANI!!
Bani-(turned around)-
Jai-(ran toward Bani, panting)-Bani..tum..tum hi ho…
Bani-hun?
--
Jai-(still Panting)-Haan..Tum hi ho…
Bani-Tum kya kaherahe ho Jai? Main kya hoon??
Jai-Tum ho voh ho, jo mere maa ko teek kar sak thi hai…
Bani-Seriously Jai..mujhe kuch bhi samaj main nahi arraha…
Jai-Jab tum mere maa ke pass hoti ho, tab mere maa ki tabiyath teek hojathi hai…
Bani-Kya!??Main??
Jai-Haan, tum neh kaha tha na ki tum phele bhi mere maa si mil chuki ho…
Bani-Haan…toh?
Jai-Tumhare janne ke baad, Maa ne kuch movement dikaye…aur unka BP bhi normal hojatha hai…and she would try to move…
Bani-Sach?
Jai-haan…Chaloo mere saath…
Without letting Bani say a word, Jai dragged Bani by the hand back to the hospital…
Jai-(pulling Bani into the room)-Yeh Dehko...(to Krishna)-Maa…Dehko yeh Bani hai…Aur aaj se Appka kayal rakegi…Ab toh app teek hojayeengi na?
Krishna's eyes searched for Bani, and when they found her…Krishna's eyes began to water…She began to breathe heavily…
Nurse-dehkiyeh yeh inki heartrate kaise badgaye!!DOCTOR!!!
The doctor came rushing into the room, and pushed Jai and Bani out…
Bani was baffled….
Jai-bani…?
Bani-(looked up)
Jai-Did you see how my mother responded to you?
Bani-Yeah!...But why??I mean when I first met your mother…I felt as if I have seen her before…But…why is she reacting to me??I mean Uday unlce…you…?She doesn't do that when your around??So why me??I'm only a stranger to her…
Jai-Yeah!Thats true…but…still,
Ring Ring
Bani-Hello..
Uday-Beta…kahan ho tum dono…? Abhi tak Krishna ko kyun nahi lekar aye?
Bani-Voh…(without saying anything gives the phone to Jai)
Jai-Kyon hai?
Bani-Uncle
Jai takes the phone…
Jai-Ji papa
Uday-Haan, Jai beta…tum log abhi tak kyun nahi aye…Yahan sab kushi ke mare pagal horaheen hain…
Jai-VOh…Papa kuch papers sign karne the, tho…kuch time laggega…bus araheenhai…
Uday-Teek hai..Jaldi kar…
Jai-ji…
The doctor finally came out of the room…
Jai-Maa, teek tho hain na?
Doctor-She's fine..in fact great…her BP is normal, and you may take her home…But she needs to come twice a week for check up's…
Jai-Okay thank you soo much doctor..
Doctor-Please, Don't thank me…I really didn't do anything…it was your wife…
Bani-Wife??
Doctor-I have to attend other patients…See you on Wednesday…
Jai-Ji doctor..
The Nurse helped Jai wheelchair Krishna to the car…Bani sat in the front seat…as Jai and the nurse folded the wheelchair and threw it in the trunk of the car….Jai sat in the front seat... quickly checking his rear mirrors..for Krishna…
Jai-App teek toh hai na maa?
Krishna sat there her eyes still swelled up…
The car ride was quiet…as Bani's mind wondered too many things…
Jai ki maa mujhe dehkar kyun react karthi hain?Aur uss din bhi mujhe assa kyun laga ki maine inhe kahin dehka hai?Patha nahi kya ho raha hai?
Jai broke the silence and Bani's thoughts…
Jai-Are you angry?
Bani-(looking at Jai)-At what??
Jai-The doctor called you my …wife?
Bani-(smiled)-No..I'm not mad at that…He had a misconception…that's about it…
Jai-
Bani-I know how happy you are!
Jai-Trust me, When you don't have your mom for 21 years…its really the most happiest feeling when you get her back…
Bani-I cant say I understand…I have lived without my mom for almost ever…
Jai-Oh…I'm soo sorry…
Bani-Its okay…I was 4 when she passed away…Along with my dad…
Jai-That's sad…
Bani-Yeah it is…but…
Ring Ring
Jai-hey Bani, can you get that…its in my right pocket…
Bani searched through his pocket…finding a bottle of tablets…and the phone…
Bani-(looking at Jai)-Hello…
Uday-Kahan ho tum dono??
Bani-Ji, bus abhi poonchne hi wale hain, unlce!
Uday-Teek, hai…Aur Krishna teek hai na…
Bani-ji (looking back toward Krishna)-Aunty bilkul teek hai…
Uday-Teek hai…Arre Anu…vahan nahi!!!Acha Bani main chaltha hoon..
Bani-Ji…
Bani began to chuckle..
Jai-Kya hua?
Bani-Kuch nahi…Uday uncle bouth excited hain, Aunty ke anne par!
The rest of the car ride, Bani hid the bottle she found from Jai's pocket…and spun it around in her hands…She didn't know what it was…but really wanted to find out…When they arrived at WM…Bani put the bottle into her bag, and helped Jai take the wheelchair out of the trunk…
Jai helped Krishna out of the car, and Bani wheeled Krishna into the house…
When they entered the door, of WM
The entire Family came to the door and – WELCOME BACK!!!
Krishnas face lit up, as members of her family came up to her, causing her to cry…
Uday-(bending down)-Tum nahi janthi Krishna ki yeh ghar kithna suna hogaya tha…
Anu-(hugging Krishna)-Mom!!Maine appko kithna miss kiya…
Jigyasa-Mummy!!!(hugging her gently…Since she was pregnant)…
--
SOME CLARIFICATIONS>>>
Jigyasa-Is the oldest…and was 8, 21 years ago…When Krishna went to the hospital!
Jai-Is the second child….and was 5, 21 years ago, when Krishna went to the hospital!
Sahil-Is the third child…and was 3, 21 years ago…when Krishna went to the hospital!
Anu-Last and the youngest, was 2, 21 years ago, when Krishan went to the hospital!
Krishna looked around the room, seeing the white lilies everywhere…But slowly she began breathing fast….making Jai and Bani take her to her room…
Bani-app teek toh hain na aunty..?
Bani put her hand, on top of Krishna's hand…Making Krishna breathe slowers, and calm down…
Uday, who was watching was amazed at what Bani's touch did to Krishna…So he called Jai outside, Krishnas room…
Uday-yeh sab??
Jai-I know ki app kya soch rahein hoongeh…
Jai explained how Bani was the one, who had caused Krishna to move a couple of months ago!
Uday-KYA!!??
Jai-Haan papa…
Uday-Kamal hai, jisse hum doondrahe thi…voh humhare company main hi thi!!
Jai-strange na?
Bani-(bringing Krishna back outside, in her wheelchair)-Chaleen?
Jai-Kahan?
Uday-Neeche party main!!
Jai-oh, haan…
--
Downstairs…the hall had begun to fill up…And Jai was busy with his friends Bani got a bit lost in the crowd…She began to think about random things…Like the pills…She wanted to check her purse, but realized that the purse…Was in Jai's car…But she couldn't leave Krishna like this??
Anu-(with a plate of food)-Arre, app??Sorry..Mom ki anne ke kushi main..ghar main sab pagal ho rahein hain…I'm really very sorry…App ka naam??
Bani-Its okay…I can understand…Main Bani So..I mean Bani Dixit hoon…

Bani-Soo sweet of you…but no thanks…App kyun nahi kale thi…?
Anu-Nahi nahi, app mujhe app nahi kehsak thi…main app se bouth choti hoon…ishi liye..app mujhe Anu kehiyeh..
Bani-(laughed)-I think kandani hai…(thinking of the time when Jai asked her to to call him by his name)…
Anu-hun??Keher…teek hai…liken app please kahna lijiye ga…
Bani-Definatly loongi…
Bani went leaving Krishna for two minutes…Bani came back with food and was feeding Krishna…Jai watched from afar…Then Bani went to Uday…
Bani-Yeh app kya karahein hain??
Uday-(hiding the plate)-Kuch nahi..
Bani-Jalebi!!Uncle appko diabetes hain…
Bani took the Jalebi out of his plate…
Jai laughed…
Jai-(dreamily)-Wow…She fits soo perfectly in my family…
Jai-(called out in his dreamy land)-BANI!!
Bani-(turned around)-hun? Kya hua??
Bani went over to Jai…
Jai-(out loud to himself)-Sh*t…maine Bani ko kyun bulaya??dam…Okay relax Jai…Shes coming..Just relax..

People began to dance…
Tarun-Hey Jai….sorry I'm late…had a meeting…
Jai-Hey Tarun!!
Tarun-just met aunty…She looks great!!I'm soo happy shes back home…
Jai-me to..
Tarun spot Bani in the corner of the room…She was quietly standing there, sipping apple cider…She was wearing a black sari…and her face glissened in the flashing light…Tarun moved Jai over…as he was talking and went over to Bani…Meanwhile Uday called jai over…and began talking to him…
--
With Tarun and Bani…
Tarun walked over, getting close to Bani…Smoothly…
Tarun-Hey…I'm Tarun
Bani-(moving back a bit)-Um…
Tarun-Jai's best friend…Well at least I think so…
Bani-(smilied)-
Tarun-Wow, you have a beautiful smile…
Bani-urm…Thanks…
Tarun-Would you dance with me…please…its my favorite song…
Bani-nahi…main…
Tarun-Please…
Tarun put his hand out in front of Bani…Bani looked for a way out…Looking for Jai…momentarily…She felt obliged to dance with him…
Bani closed her eyes…and put her hand out…leaving her glass on the bar table…Tarun pulled her close…Bani felt extremlly uncomfortable…She tried to pull back but seemed as if tarun kept pulling her closer….But Sahil came in and relieved Bani…
Sahil-Hey tarun…tera phone hai…Can I have this dance??
Bani-(smiled at Sahil)-Yes you may…
Tarun-mera phone??
Sahil-Haan haan…ja na..
Bani and Sahil began to dance..
