BEWAFA…
Premeer- One Shot
It was a very pleasant day. Prem Juneja, the most promising new entry in the business scenario of India, was as usual busy in his office work.
A year back people didn't know who he was, but today any one can tell who he is. In a time period of only 12 months he had conquered what people mostly manage to get in a lifetime; fame, success and loads of money.
He was working on some file when he heard the noise of rain outside. He closed his file and went near the window of his lavish cabin.
It was raining hard, looking outside he suddenly turned back to see the calendar, it said 24th November 2009.
Four years ago same date had bring him the most happiest moment of life, which had now unfortunately turned into the worst memory of his life time.
*FLASHBACK*
24th November 2005
It was a rainy day, and college prom night was to be held in the evening. All his friends had asked their girls and were now planning what they will be doing in the evening with their dates.
Prem had not asked anyone yet, although there were lots of girls longing to that he asks them tonight. But the one he wanted to ask, seemed not to be interested.
Heer Maan, the girl of his dreams from the very first day of the college. He always wanted to talk to her but after almost a year he still wasn't able to. But today he had decided that he would be asking her to go to prom night with him and he would confess his love to her tonight.
He saw her entering the college gate; he took a deep breath and made his way towards her. She was as usual coming with her gaze lowered down, not bothered about the people in her surroundings. She was about to walk pass him when he called her.
PREM: excuse me, Heer!
She stopped in her tracks and lifted her head up to see who called her. She was shocked to see him. The guy who she always wanted to be with was standing right in front of her and was trying to talk to her. She tried to control her heart, which was racing furiously and said.
HEER: yes? Aap mujhse kuch keh rahe hain?
PREM: hmm. Actually, I wanted to ask will you be my date tonight?
HEER: what?
PREM: I mean aap mere sath prom night chalein gi aaj?
She was in utter astonish; she could feel her cheeks going red.
PREM: I think aap ko meri baat ka bura laga hai. I didn't mean to hurt you. I am sorry if I did.
HEER: I will come with you Prem. (she said and quickely walked away from his proximity)
Prem couldn't believe his ears. He felt like dancing with joy.
The evening was a very special one for both of them. They had decided to meet outside the venue because Heer didn't feel it was appropriate that Prem would pick her up from her orphanage. She had nobody in this world and she resided in an orphanage.
The moments they shred during the function were the best moments of lives of both, especially when Prem confessed his love to her. They were walking in the moonlight after the prom night ended.
Suddenly Prem stopped; she also halted and asked him why he wasn't walking.
HEER: kya hoa tum ruk kyon gaye?
PREM: kuch kehna hai tumse.
HEER: bolo naa.
PREM: Heer, main ne aaj se pehle kabhi aisa feel nahin kiya jaisa tumhe dekhte hi mehsoos hone laga tha.
Heer was blushing. She could see the sparks of true love in his eyes; she lowered her gaze due to shyness.
PREM: I LOVE YOU HEER. Kya tum bhi mere barey mein kuch mehsoos karti ho?
HEER: main bhi ussi din se tumhein chahti hoon Prem, jabse main ne tumhe pehli bar dekha tha. I LOVE YOU TOO.
Prem was on cloud nine after hearing this. He jumped with joy and took Heer in his arms and swirled her.
*END OF FLASHBACK*
A smile in involuntarily came on his lips after remembering that beautiful moment but it vanished in seconds. He clutched hard the window pane, his eyes became red with anger and rage took over him.
Something happened right after 3 months of their last day in college, which changed his life completely. The moment which was previously the best moment of his life became the one he regretted badly now.
Although more than a year has passed, but still he wasn't able to forget the happenings of that day.
*FLASHBACK*
4th April 2008
It had been three months since he had last seen Heer. She had disappeared after the day of their college farewell. He was very much worried about her. He checked her orphanage but couldn't find any clue. He was going mad with pain.
It was some late hour of night when his mobile rang, it was some unknown number.
PREM: hello.
And he couldn't believe his ears whose voice he just heard. It was Heer.
HEER: hi Prem.
PREM: tum kahan ho Heer? Theek tou hona? Kuch khabar hi nahin thi tumhari. Janti hoon main kitna pareshan tha. Ek baar bata tou sakti thi na. ab bolti kyon nahin ho kuch? (he said in a single breath)
HEER: main theek hoon Prem. Tum subah mil sakte ho mujhe coffee shop pe?
PREM: tum abhi kahan ho? Main issi waqt aa jata hoon.
HEER: nahin Prem. Hum subah hi milein ge. I will wait for you at 10 am.
And she disconnected the call. Prem was very happy to hear her voice after three whole months. He tried to call her back but the number was switched off. He was eagerly waiting for the morning.
He reached the coffee shop before time and had to wait for an hour or so before she came. He saw her on the entrance; ran towards her and hugged her tightly, never wanting to let her go.
Heer stood there still, she didn't even reciprocate his hug. After few seconds she gently pushed him away.
PREM: I missed you so much. Ab main tumhein apni nazroon se dur kabhi nahin jane doon ga.
HEER: yeh nahin janana chaho ge ke main kahan thi?
PREM: iss baat ka koi matlab nahin ke tum kahan thi? Tum aa gayi ho wohi kafi hai mere liye. (he said in sheer happiness)
HEER: iss baat ka bhi koi matlab nahin hai ke main kis ke sath thi?
PREM: kehna kya chahti ho tum? (he asked in confusion)
Just then a handsome young guy came and hugged Heer tightly. Heer was looking very happy to see him. Prem was seeing them in shock, he was speechless because as far as he knew, Heer had no relative and she didn't even have any male friend.
HEER: in se milo Prem. Yeh hain YUVRAJ MALHOTARA, my husband.
Prem felt as if somebody had dropped a bomb on his head for a few minutes he wasn't able to say anything.
PREM: yeh sab kya hai, Heer? (he finally asked with teary eyes)
HEER: main ne aaj tumhein inhi se milane ke liye bulwaya hai. (she said holding Yuvraj's arm)
YUVRAJ: hi Prem. (he stretched his hand towards him but Prem didn't shake his hand. He pulled it back after few moments)
HEER: Yuvi, yehi hai iss pori duniya main mera akela dost, jis ke barey mein aap se baat kit hi main ne. (she said smiling)
YUVRAJ: acha Heer, tumhe pata hai we need to go somewhere, tum jaldi se apne dost se baat karke aa jao I am waiting for you in the car. (he placed a kiss on Heer's head and went out of the coffee shop)
HEER: acha Prem, mujhe jana hoga. Yuvi aur main ne aaj pora day sath mein spend karne ka socha hai. (she said and started to leave but Prem grabbed her arm)
PREM: aisa kyon kiya Heer? (he asked looking right into her eyes)
HEER: Prem, leave my hand, sab dekkh rahe hain. (she tried to pull her wrist out of his grip but in vain, his hold was very strong)
PREM: kyon kiya Heer? Mere pyaar main kya kami thi?
HEER: (finally took her hand from his grip amd smiled) kuch kami nahin thi Prem tumhare pyaar mein. Bas tumhare status mein kami thi.
PREM: matlab?
HEER: matlab saaf hai Prem, tum jante ho ke mein ne apni pori zindagi ek orphanage mein choti choti cheezon ke liye taraste hoye bitayi hai. Aur tumhare sath bhi meri baqi ki zindagi aise hi guzarti, jo mujhe kissi bhi qimat pe manzoor nahin tha.
Prem was shattered hearing all this, he could not believe his Heer can be that materialistic.
PREM: tum jhoot keh rahi ho naa? Heer kehdo yeh sab ek bhada mazak hai. Kehdo yeh jhoot hai. (he pleaded)
HEER: sab sach hai Prem, aur isse jitni jaldi apna lo behtar rahe ga. Tum jaise middle class insaanke sath mujhe apni her khwahish ko daba ker jeena parta. Yuvraj ke paas bohat paisa hai, he is damn rich aur woh meri har zarorat pori kar sakta hai. Ho sakey tou mujhe bhool jana Prem.
She said and walked away. Prem stood rooted to his spot. All this was very difficult for him to accept. His dreams shattered in just few moments. His love showed her true colors and his whole life went wrong.
*END OF FLASHBACK*
From that day, he decided that he would become well-off. Richer than Yuvraj, for whom Heer left him. And then he will go to Heer and make her realize what mistake she made by rejecting him. And this will be his revenge from that BEWAFA woman.
And today that day had arrived, he had become very rich and now it was the time to go and show this to Heer.
Just then he heard a knock on the door. He got settled on his chair and asked the person on door to come in. It was his manager.
PREM: kahiye Mr. Sharma kaam ho gaya?
MANAGER: yes Sir, aap ne Mr.Yuvraj Malhotara ke barey mein details mangi thi. Main ne sab kuch pata kar liya hai.
PREM: very good. Ab mujhe jaldi se un ka address dedo. I don't want to waste more time.
The manager provided him with the details and he instantly left for Yuvraj's home. He reached the address; it was a huge mansion but nothing in front of Juneja Palace, where Prem resided.
He got off from his Mercedes and rang the door-bell. A maid opened the door.
PREM: mujhe Mrs.Yuvraj Malhotara se milna hai.
MAID: woh tou ghar pe nahin hain.
PREM: aur Mr.Malhotara?
MAID: sir bhi nahin hain ghar pe.
PREM: woh iss waqt kahan milein ge?
MAID: City Hospital mein.
PREM: kyon kya hoa?
MAID: zayada kuch mujhe maloon nahin, bas itna pata hai aaj kal Madam aur Sir wahein hote hain. Raat ko dair se ghar aate hain aur subah phir chale jate hain.
Prem decided to meet them in the hospital because he cannot wait more. He reached the City Hospital and was about to inquire about them when he saw Yuvraj coming towards him with a doctor.
Yuvraj recognized Prem instantly and was shocked to see him. Prem proceeded towards him.
YUVRAJ: Prem tum yahan?
PREM: hi Yuvraj. Kaise ho tum or tumhari biwi, Mrs.Heer Yuvraj Malhotara?
YUVRAJ: tumhein kaise pata chala hum yahan hain?
PREM: main jis baat ko maloom karna chahon kisi bhi tarah kar hi leta hoon.
YUVRAJ: kyon aaye ho Prem?
PREM: tumhari wife se kuch purana score settle karn ahai… issi liye aaya hoon.
YUVRAJ: tum Heer is nahin mil sakte.
PREM: fikar na karo yar, ab main us ke barey mein waisa nahin sochta jaisa kabhi sochta tha.
YUVRAJ: woh baat nahin hai PRem, bas tum nahin mill sakte use.
PREM: dekho mujhe bhi us BEWAFA mein koi interest nahin hain hai. Main aaj sirf use yeh dikhane aaya hoon ke jis waja se woh mujhe chor ke gayi thi, us waja ko mita diya hai main ne. Apni jeet aur uski haar dikhane aaya hoon. Aur aisa karne se tum rok nahin pao ge mujhe MR. YUVRAJ MALHOTARA.
YUVRAJ: aaj ek saal baad, lagta hai qismat tumhein Heer ke paas khinch layi hai. Shayad upper wale hi ki marzi hai, aur main kon hota hoon qudrat ke kaam mein dakhal dene wala. Chalo tumhe Heer se milwa doon.
Yuvraj started walking and Prem followed him. He stopped in front of an ICU and opened the door.
Prem froze at his spot seeing what was in front of his eyes. Heer lay unconscious on bed connected with life support system and drips visible on each part of her body.
After few seconds he came to senses and started walking towards her bed. Although he had hated like anything her for past few months but now seeing her in this condition made him forget all that detestation for her.
Tears were rolling down his cheeks and his heart was aching badly, afterall the woman lying almost lifeless in front of eyes was his one and only love. He sat on the stool placed near the bed and took her hand in his hands.
PREM: kya hoa hai Heer Ko?
YUVRAJ: uske paas zindagi ki akhri sansein hi bachein hain. Doctors have excused. Heer humein chor ke jaane wali hai. (he said and ran out of the ward wiping his tears)
Prem felt as if somebody has crushed his heart. After few moments he spoke to her.
PREM: Heer, kya hoa tumhe? Ankhein kholo na ek baar. (he pleaded)
His tears fell on her hand and she slowly opened her eyes.
HEER: tum aa gaye Prem? (she asked in alow voice)
PREM: haan Heer, tum kaisi ho?
HEER: main janti thi, bhagwan mujhe itna waqt zaroor dega ke main tumse maafi mang sakoon (she said with much effort)
PREM: tum theek ho jao gi Heer.
HEER: please Prem maaf kardo mujhe. (her started to breath with effort)
PREM: main doctor ko bulata hoon.
HEER: kaho tumne maaf kiya mujhe.
PREM: let me call the doctor. (he got up from the stool but Heer tightened her grip on his hand)
HEER: please ek bar keh do you forgive me.
PREM: Heer tumhari tabiat bigar rahi hai, jane do mujhe, main doctor ko bulata hoon (he said trying to pull his hand out of her grip)
HEER: mujhe doctor ki nahin tumhari maafi ki zarorat hai. Ek bar kehdo maaf kiya mujhe. (her state was worsening every moment)
PREM: haan maaf kiya, dil se maaf kiya.
As soon as he said these words her grip on his hand loosened, he rushed to call the doctor. The doctor came in checked her. Yuvraj and Prem were walking restlessly outside the ward. After few minutes doctor came out.
YUVRAJ: how is she doctor?
DOCTOR: I am sorry Mr. Malhotara, she is no more.
Yuvraj covered his face with both his hands and sat down on the floor weeping. Prem stood there in utter shock, and after few seconds he walked out of the hospital with heavy steps.
It had been three hours since he returned home from hospital, he was sitting at the same spot just looking in the space. He was in pain and was unable to understand why. The girl had betrayed him, he had hated her for almost a year and now when she had died, and the God has punished her; why was he in so much distress.
A servant came and told him that some Mr. MAlhotara had come to see him. He told the sercant to bring him in.
YUVRAJ: Heer ka antim sanskar karna hai.
PREM: kab?
YUVRAJ: jald se jald, aur main chahta hoon uski chita ko aag tum do.
PREM: Main? Per kyon? Kis haq se?
YUVRAJ: tum jante ho woh ek anath thi, duniya mein koi nahin tha uska. Tum uske dil ke sabse zyada qareeb they iss liye.
PREM: woh anath thi. But she died as your wife, and you have all the rights to criminate her.
YUVRAJ: tum ab bhi nahin samjh paye Prem?
PREM: kya?
"yehi ke Heer tumse kitni mohabbat karti thi ", a voice came from the door.
A beautiful girl came and stood beside Yuvraj.
YUVRAJ: she is my wife Sohni Malhotara.
PREM: but tumhari shadi tou Heer se?
SOHNI: kabhi nahin hoi thi. Heer ne ek saal pehle jo kiya woh ek natak tha. Woh hamesha tumse pyaar karti rahi hai Prem, akhiri sans tak. Aur yeh sab usne iss liye kiya tha kyon ki woh jan chuki thi ke uske paas zindagi ka sirf ek saal bacha hai. She had blood cancer, tumhe takleef na ho yeh soch ker usne tumhare samne khud ko BEWAFA sabit kar diya. Aur tum jo uspe Bewafai ka ilzaam lagate rah eek baar bhi sach jane ki kohshish nahin ki? (she said and started crying uncontroably)
YUVRAJ: haan Prem heer aur main sirf ache dost the. Main tou bohat oehle yeh sab batana chahta tha per Heer ki qasam ne mujhe roke rakha. Ab se 2 ghante baad Heer ka antim sanskar hai, aana zaroor shayad uski aatma ko shanty mill sakey.
Yuvraj and Sohni went and left behind a shattered PRem who was thinking:
"akhir Bewafa kon tha? Heer ya hum dono ki taqdeer?"
