"King of my world"
Part_14
Veera was unable to make out what ratan said
Veera; bg..
Ratan; mat keh mujhe bg, nhi hun me teri bg, aur na hi Ranvi tera
bhai hai, tu sampooran singh ki beti zarur he par mene nhi diya
janam tujhe, tu surpunch jee ki najayaz aulad he, teri maa margai
tenu janam de k aur mera ghar ujaad ke aur ab tere kaaran hum
kahin ke nhi rahe..aur ab hamen barbad krne wale ke sath
tu...chee..Ranvi ki parvarish tere gande khoon k rang ko badal nhi
payi.
Veera stood as a stone, her world collapsed all of a sudden, tears
fell from her eyes, she kept looking down, even ranvi was not trying
to support her. Chaiji caught hold of her.
Chaiji; na puttar na..rote nhi..
Veera looked at Chaiji, chaiji could see in her eyes that she had not
done anything that would defame her family,
Chaiji; haan puttar me janti hun tune kuch nhi kiya
Ratan; kya jaanti hen aap chaiji, apna mun kaala kr k ayi he ye, ab
aur kya baqi reh gya tha.
Veera looked at Ranvi, Ranvi came close to her
Ranvi; kya kami reh gayi thi meri parvarish me veera? jo tu mere
mana krne k bawajood us ke paas gayi..aur ye..
Veera; nhi veerji me
Ranvi; bas (he shouted) nhi hun me tera veer aur na tu meri
veerakhdi...meri veerakhdi mere khilaf to kabhi ja hi nhi skti..aur
tune to meri naak hi katwa di..us Baldev ke sath tu...kehne me bhi
sharam ati he veera
***********************
Baldev was sitting at the tea stall with billa and jaggi after he
dropped Veera, he was feeling restless and not responding to
Jaggi's talks. Something ached in his chest and he was not
understanding why..he just had the ebst time of his life then why
this sudden numbness.
Billa: kya hua paaji parjai ke bagair dil nhi lag rha kya
Baldev; pta nhi ki he, me use mil ke aata hun, kuch acha nhi lag rha,
use dekh lun to sukoon milega
Jaggi; o paji abhi aapko aye 10 minute bhi pure nhi huye honge, inni
der me ki hojana he parjai nu
Baldev; pta nhi yr, abhi achanaq se laga kuch, ajeeb dard sa ho rha
he, wo theek nhi shayad, gir gai ho kya pta, dekh ke to chalti nhi, me
use dekh ke ata hun
Baldev left quick, his heart ached badly, something was wrong and
he knew it.
********************
Veera was trying to explain but she had no words, her own brother
didn't trust her and the sudden revealation of truth had taken away
all her power.
Veera; veerji (she tried hard to speak) esa kuch nhi..me bheeg gai
thi..isiiye baldev ne apne kapde
Ratan; hum bache nhi hen veera, bohot dunya dekhi he, sach aur
jhoot me farq krna aata he humen
Veera; veerji mera yaqeen mano..esa kuch nhi hua..pr han..me...me
...me baldev se pyar krti hun...aur wo bhi
Ranvi; Veeerrraaa (he shouted and slapped her
hard)
she almost fell because of the forceful slap but someone strong
caught hold of her. She looked up and saw Baldev's eyes red with
anger, his body heated up, fists clenched. He helped Veera standup
and then put a strand of her hair behind her ear to have a better
view of the slap marks, her cheek was red and Ranvi's finger marks
prominent. Veera looked at him, her eyes filled with many tears, but
she moved her head in a disagreement to stop him. He stood infron
of her as a shield, fuming, his pupils dilated, skin red from head to
toe. And when he spoke, his voice was harsh and cruel with a tinge
of underlying pain he felt on seeing his soul in pain.
Baldev; tum logon ki itni himmat ke meri veera pe haath uthao
his voice was dangerous and ruthless, Veera caught his arm to try
to calm him but the damage was done and she couldn't stop the fire
from spreading and burning everything that came in its way now.
Baldev walked towards Ranvi and looked into his eyes, his eyes
were enough to scare ranvi's soul.
Baldev; bol na..kese himmat ki tune meri veera pe haath uthane ki,
jaanta nhi kya teri auqaat kya he? bol?
Ranvi; (his voice was shaking) wo meri behen he, me kuch bhi karun
Baldev punched him, Ranvi fell on the ground, blood appeared from
his nose.
Baldev; acha! teri behen he..to tu haath uthayega us pe..tenu pta nhi
ki...kudiyon pe hath asli mard kabhi nhi uthate
Veera held Baldev
Veera; baldev chod kuch nhi huwa..thodi galat fehmi hogai he bas
Baldev; galat fehmi, galat fehmi hogi to ye haath uthayega tujh pr,
veera tu hat ja, bas bohot hogya, me kuch bhi bardasht kr skta hun
pr koi tenu sui bhi chubhayega to me bardasht nhi kr skta.
Ratan; maalik aapko koi haq nhi banta hamare ghar ke maamlon me
dhakhal dene ka..aur aapko veera chahiye to le jaiye ise..wese bhi ab
apne pati ki galtiyon ka boj aur nhi uthaya jata hum se.
Baldev understood what happened, Veera's birth truth was revealed
infront of her and she was being accused of doing the same
mistake, Baldev looked at Veera, she looked like a stone almost
lifeless. He recalled the happy veera he dropped off a while ago, full
of life and colors, but now she was all black and white. He looked at
Ratan and Ranvi, how could they do this to her, they had brought
her up and didn't know what values she has.
Baldev; (after a fake laugh & 3 slow claps) wah! Ratan Sampooran
Singh aur Ranvi Sampooran Singh wah!..jis ne galti ki uski tum dono
aaj tak pooja krte ho, aur jiski koi galti nhi us se itni nafrat. Aur
ranvi tu, beti bna ke pala tha na tune veera ko, itna sa bhi bharsa
nhi tujhe uspar, are jo ladki itne saal akeli delhi me reh ke ayi he jab
delhi me kuch nhi kiya to pind me aake wo tera naam badnam
kregi,wadi wadi galan krta tha na tu, apna sab kuch bech diya tune
veera k liye, pr bharosa itna sa bhi nhi tenu us par, aur ek ye jaan
deti e tum sab pr. ghin aati he mujhe tujhse ranvi, tu kitna gir chuka
he, tenu mujhse nafrat itni bhad gai ke tenu veera bhi galat lagne
lag gai, ab to tenu maar peet kr apne haath gande krne ka bhi ma
nhi kr rha.
He went to veera and took her hand.
Baldev; me koi zid nhi sununga ab..tu mere naal chal rhi he. Smjhi?
she didn't respond, Baldev looked at Chaiji and gestured her to
follow. Baldev pulled Veera out of the house and Chaiji followed,
Ratan and Ranvi were left behind alone.
****************
Baldev took Veera and Chaiji to a new house close to his, being the
surpunch and the king had given him access to many things and he
didn't misuse his power but it was the need of the hour.
It was a small house with one bedroom and a hall where the kitchen
and bathroom was. A cot was paced in the centre where Baldev
made Veera sit on, Chaiji went inside the room to give them some
private time. Baldev sat with Veera and put his arm around her, she
leaned on his shoulder and then slowly she started crying, she cried
alot and baldev remained quiet letting her pour her heart out, his
kurta was wet again but now with her tears. She cried loudly and
then was decreased to silent sobs..baldev didn't move he just held
her, his head leaning on hers. And then she finally spoke,
Veera; Baldev, menu..menu nhi pta tha, veerji mere...mere sage veerji
nhi, bg meri bg nhi, me anat hun Baldev.
her words were arrows to his heart, every tear that left her eye
pierced his heart. He felt helpless because he couldn't change this
fact of her life and relieve her pain.
Veera; aur isiliye wo menu...Baldev mere veerji ne mujhe itna galat
smjha..me esa..wo soch bhi kese skte hen
Baldev moved now and wiped her tears, then cupped her face.
Baldev; bhool ja veera, kal in sbne mujh pr ghinone ilzam lagaye the
aur aaj tujhpr...menu chor kaha to theek, pr apni behen tak ko nhi
choda is ranvi ne. Tu bhool ja..me hun na tere paas, tere saath, tenu
kabhi dard nhi dunga me, ab se har dukh ko tujh tak pohonchne se
pehle mera saamna krna padega.
Veera hugged him, and they closed their eyes, just listening to each
other's heartbeats, they found peace in each other.
Chaiji saw them and smiled.
Chaiji; Rabjee aapne in dono ko dard diya..aur ab ye dono ek dusre
ke dard ki dawa hen, kisi ki nazar na lage is pyar jodi ko.
She took some kaajal from her eye and put it on their mirror
reflection.
