Success:Story on Kalpi[Rachana] last part on Pg 140 [30th july] - Page 35

@Chawl, mumbai

Kalpana stands at the chawl door.. She gets nostalgic.. She starts visualizing the moment she spend in this chawl.. Child Kalpi sitting with a doll in her hand waiting for her mother.. Vitthal feeding her with his hands.. Pakya teasing her.. And she is running after him with stick in her hand.. Her birthday celebration..

Pakya sees her at the door and gets happy.. He calls Kamla and vitthal and runs towards Kalpi.. Kalpi sees Pakya and hugs him with happiness..

Pakya : Kalpi.. U were supposed to come tomorrow??

Kalpi : I wanted to give u surprise. Look at ur happiness. I just came early to see this expression of urs..

Vitthal and Kamla too reaches there and gets happy on ssing Kalpi.. Kalpi takes Vitthal's blessing by touching his feet.

Kalpi : Baba.. U r looking so weak.. r u fine??

Vitthal : My princess was away from me.. Now u have come so I will be fine.

Vitthal gets emotional on saying this.. Kalpi notices his expressions and hugs him..

Kalpi : I am sorry baba.. I hurt u a lot.. I am a bad daughter..

Vitthal : U r my princess.. Best daughter in the world.. No need to say sorry..

Kamla too looks at the duo and gets emotional.. She stretches her hands to hug Kalpi when Kalpi's phone starts ringing.. She receives it and goes to the side..

Kalpi(on call) : Yes Roshni aunty.. don't worry, I am fine... It was so amazing experience.. My first air journey was superb.. Thanx to u aunty.. I noe it's not a big deal for u but for me it was.. I always wanted to fly and u helped me in fulfilling this dream of mine.. Thank u aunty.. Anyways I have reached home.. Will call u back!!!

Kamla hears all this feels sad.. She looks at her hand which were still waiting to embrace her daughter while her daughter was busy in talking with someone else.. She hears their conversation and looks at Kalpi's happy face while describing her first experience of flight.. She was expecting her daughter to tell he all this. she takes her hands back and feels unhappy but doesn't say anything to Kalpi and goes inside the house.. Vitthal notices this but he too keeps mum as he knows that Kamla is reaping what she sowed years back!!

Vitthal takes Kalpi inside and tells Pakya to bring Kalpi's favorite Kulfi.. Kalpi meets Kamla their she touches her feet and ask about her health.. they have just formal talks.. vitthal notices the distance between them. Pakya comes with icecream and tells Kalpi to let him feed her. Kalpi allows him. Pakya and Kalpi spends some sweet time together.. He asks about her lkife in delhi and she tells him everything.. While talking she was glancing at her mother to check whether she is happy with it or not. Kamla was listening to all this carefully.. She was proud of her daughter but doesn't know how to express it.

After few hours of chatting Kalpi takes out the gift she has bought for them.. She gift Vitthal a new shirt and jeans..

Vitthal : Jeans??

Kalpi : Yes Jeans.. My baba is young enough to wear this.. Stop wearing this boring trousers..

And dada.. this mobile is for u.. It has all the features u wanted in ur cell and I have downloaded all latest application.. Now I am just a click away..

She goes to her mother to give her a saree.. He mother takes it nd praises it a lot. Kalpi thanks her for liking it.. Kamla goes to the almirah and takes out a suit which she has bought for Kalpi.. she wants her to wear it tomorrow on Rakhi. She goes to Kalpi when she sees Kalpi arranging her bag.. Pakya points out another gift packet in that..

Pakya :What's in that??

Kalpi : Ohh that gift.. Roshni aunty gave me while I ws leaving.. See.. I forgot to open it.. Let me open it now..

Kalpi opens the gift packet.. It has a suit.. Kalpi likes it very much and shows it to her mother.. Kamla sees an expensive blue net umbrella suit.. She looks at the packet in her own hand.. It has a pink cotton suit.. A tear fall downs from her eyes.. She keeps the packet back in the almirah..

Kamla : It's very nice Kalpi.. U should wear this only.

Kalpi : What happened ayi? U r looking sad..

Kamla : Nothing Kalpi.. I will be back in a minute..

Kamla goes to the washroom and cries her heart out.. She can't believe that Kalpi has gone so much away from her..

The whole day Pakya, Kalpi and Vitthal were enjoying.. Kamla was a mute spectator.. For the first time she was feeling left out from her own home..

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

In night Kamla takes out her phone to call Pakhi.. she invites her for the rakhi tomorrow.. She tells he about Kalpi's arrival and she is going to stay here till her birthday.

Pakhi : Sorry Kamla maa.. I really want to come but I can't come.. I want to stay with Prem bhaiya tomorrow...Neetu and papa are in jail...He feels lonely without them.. So I want to spend whole day with him..

Kamla : I understand beta.. but u can come in evening..

Pakhi : Sorry Kamla maa but I have an important appointment tomorrow.. But I promise u that I will be there for Kalpi's birthday.. in fct I will arrange a party for her.

Kamla : Ok beta!!

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

Next day,

Kalpi has wore the suit Roshni gifted her.. She ties Rakhi to Paakya and ask for the special gift..

Pakya(teasingly) : Gift?? U r earning much more than me.. U should give gift to me..

Kalpi : Dada.. I want my gift now.. Give it or m leaving..

Pakya : Ya leave.. Yesterday I felt so uncomfortable by sleeping on floor... When u were not there I was sleeping on cot..So go back and give me my cot back!!

Kalpi(emotionally) : That cot is more important than me?? U were happy without me.

Pakya : No Kalpi.. If u want.. take my mattress as well.. I will sleep on floor.. nothing is mpre important than u.. I was just teasing.. U want gift.. Wait I have a special gift for u..

Pakya give a beautiful scrapbook to Kalpi.. She looks at it and smiles reading the title.. "years of Awesomeness". The cover page had a small Kalpi in Vitthal's hand and Pakya standing besides them.. Kalpi flips the pages and it was full of her pictures.. It has her story from cildhood.. At last page her picture on stage with Roy and Payal.. and few newspaper cutting.. She is surprised to see them..

Kalpi : Dada.. This are my delhi pics.. From where u found it?

Pakya : Day before yesterday I called u.. U were taking bath.,. Payal picked the call.. I requested her to send all this.. At first she denied but later agreed to help me when I told her about this scrap book. Sorry Kalpi.. I do not have much money to give u any expensive gift.. but I have prepared this on my own.. U liked it??

Kalpi : Dada.. it's priceless!! This is the best gift I received till date. Thank u dada..

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

In nyt Kalpi comes out for walk.. She goes to the Kapoor's building.. Gives it a determined look..

Kalpi(to herself) : I know I have changed ny path.. But my destination is still the same.. I will buy buy a flat in this building!! Few years ago I have promised myself to be ur neighbor neetu memsaab and I have not forgotten it yet!!

Watchman sees her staring at the building and goes to her.. He recognizes her as the same girl who used to come there daily. he shoos her away!! Kalpi too goes from there when she sees a injured man lying on the ground.. She goes to help him and takes him to the hospital.. Doctor thanks him for helping a stranger man and it's a minor injury and he will be fine soon.. she asks him about the patients family when he informs her that they have found his wife's number and they have informed them.. Kalpi meets the patient and leaves the hospital.. while going out she sees Pakhi talking with a doctor.. She stops there to listen their convo..

Doctor : Congrats Pakhi.. but now u need to take extra care.. No more stress, no more working.. Eat healthy.. This time period is very crucial for u sand ur baby. Btw bring baby's father next time.. I would like to give him some tips as well..

Pakhi : He is really busy so dint came but will tell him to come from now onwards..

Kalpi get shattered on hearing this.. Her faith on Raghav was proved to be wrong.. She was always sure that Raghav can't touch any other girl than her but.. Pakhi is pregnant!! She sees Pakhi coming out of the cabin and hides herself behind the wall. Pakhi touches her tummy and smiles.. she takes out her phone and dials a number..

Pakhi : My doubt was correct.. I am pregnant.. I am carrying the symbol of my love.. Can't tell u how happy I am.

Kalpi can't take it anymore and runs from there.. She goes to bappa's temple to muster some courage.

Kalpi(to herslef) : Why is it affecting me so much?? Pakhi is her wife.. They have all the rights to move on like I did.. It was my decision to go away and to not give him another chance than why I am crying for him. Do all this time I was bluffing to myself?? Did I ever forgot Raghav?? Did he ever stopped affecting me.. Enough of this bullshit.. Yes he affects me.. Hearing his name, looking his face affects me.. I should not have come to Mumbai.. I will go back!!

Kalpi goes to her house and starts packing.. Kamla looks at her pained face..She knows her daughter that much that she can realize that it's coz of Raghav. She thinks to tell her about Pakhi-Raghav divorce..

Kamla : Kalpi.. beta... I want to tell u something.

Kalpi : Tell ayi..

Kamla : Actually Pakhi-Raghav..

Kalpi : Enough ayi.. I do not want to hear their name.. u always considered her as ur daughter naa.. So just go annd take part in her happiness.. Leave me alone.. I know that Pakhi is pregnant.. No need to tell me again.

Kalpi starts crying while telling all this.. She has came Mumbai for her family.. She never expected her ayi to talk about Pakhi again..

Kamla : what?? Pregnant?? I need to talk to her..

Kamla goes out to talk to her.. She is worried about Pakhi.. "Pakhi is pregnant but how.. She is divorced now.. Is it Raghav's child?? If yes than what will happen to her??"

Vitthal sees her going out.. She tells everything to her.. Vitthal scolds her for leaving Kalpi alone while crying.. Kamla realizes her mistakes and goes back to console Kalpi.. vitthal stops her but Kamla tells him to let her try today.. Kamla enters the room when she sees Kalpi smiling on the phone.. She listens the one-sided convo!!

Kalpi : Thank you aunty.. u r really a rockstar!! U know how to bring smile on my face... I am happy that I have someone like u with whom I can share everything.. U r ryt aunty.. I shouldn't spoil my day for them. I am coming back tomorrow.. I want to celebrate my birthday with u.. u will be there naa?? Love u aunty..

Kamla listens all this and comes out and starts crying.. Vitthal have noticed this too. He goes to Kamla to pacify her..

Kamla : My daughter is sharing her pain with someone else.. What mistake I did Vitthal?? Why is God is punishing me like that??

Vitthal : Don't u know Kamla?? She is doing exactly what u have done with her... U were so busy in Pakhi that u forgot ur own daughter.. She cried a lot for u but now she has found another mother for her. Today also u left her crying coz u were more worried about Pakhi and her baby. I am thankful to that lady who brought a smile on her face. Kamla..U have no right to blame her or God.. U r paying for ur own deeds.
