"King of my world"
Part_19
Veera blinked her eyes and moved away, both were embarassed,
they looked away.
Baldev; theek he me shaam ko lene aaonga tum dono ko.
Veera; hum tayar rahenge.
Baldev came to Balveer who was sitting on Gunjan's lap and eating
an apple. He picked him up and kissed his cheek.
Baldev; mere sheru, sham ko tenu lene aaonga, ache se tayar hojana,
dada dadi se bhi milna he na, aur apna ghar bhi dekhna he
Balveer; ok dad. (he kissed Baldev's cheek too) Aap pakka aoge na
Baldev got tears again, his son thought that he had distanced
himself from him when the real culprit was his mother.
Baldev; haan beta, tere papa tujhse bohot pyar krte hen, ab tenu
tere papa se koi alag nhi kar skta.
Balveer smiled. Baldev gave him back to Gunjan.
Baldev; khayal rakhna mere sheru ka.
Gunjan; jee veerji

Balveer; bua sheru means?
Gunjan; tere papa na pind de sher hen, sher matlab lion, to tu unka

Bansuri; haan haan puttar krwati hun
***********
Veera got ready to leave, she knew she had to face Bansuri now and
that was her biggest horror, but she had choice left. Baldev arrived
and came straight to Veera's room.
Baldev; chal,
Veera nodded. Baldev picked up balveer.
Baldev; awle mera sheru, kinna sona lag rha he, dekh tere waste
chaaklate laya hun
Balveer; chocolates, thanks dad
Baldev; jaldi kr na
Veera; tu hi khada he, samaan utha to chalen

Veera; tu samaan nhi uthayega to me nhi chalungi
Baldev; bethi reh phir, me konsa tenu lene aya hun, me apne sheru
nu le k jaa raha hun, tu beth ithe hi apne saman ke saath.
Baldev moved out of the room.
Balveer; papa mom ko bhi le chalo na i want my mom
Baldev; wo ayegi dodi dodi tere peeche, me uske nakhre nhi utha
rha
He was on the stairs when Veera came pulling her heavy suitcase.
Baldev; sab akele kr skti he na tu, to samaan bhi utha le
Veera looked at him in anger. Baldev came back to her and snatched
the suitcase, he carried it in one hand with ease, Balveer on his arm.
Baldev; isi waaste Rab ne mardon ko banaya he ta ke wo apni ghar
ki aurton ka khayal rakh sken unhe sahara de sken, or aaj kal ki
aurten khud ko wada kuch smjhti hen.
Veera; Sim aap mere paas ajao
Baldev; oye hat, mera puttar mere liye boj thodi he, me ise tenu nhi
dunga, ab chal sirf nakhre krne aate hen... bhootni
Veera; Baldev kuch to sharam kr kya seekhega hamara bacha, tenu
baat krne ki bhi tameez nhi
Baldev; haan tune wada angrez bana diya he na ise, to ab iska baap
hi ise sahi wala punjabi bnayega, oye tu chup kr k chal nhi skti.
They moved out of Ranvi's house and Baldev put the suitcase in his
jeep. Veera sat on the front seat. Baldev gave Balveer to her and
their hands touched in the process, electric sparks hit both of them.
Baldev started the jeep and they soon reached his house. Baldev
took Balveer from her again and gave her a hand to help her get out
of the jeep, she gave him her hand, both had a different feeling and
they couldn't deny but had to avoid looking at each other.
Bansuri was waiting at the door when the arrived, she did aarti of
them all before letting them in and Veera had to do the ghre
pravesh rituals.
Bansuri; hayo Rabba kinna sona he mera pota dekhiye to surpunch
jee, bilkul mujhpe aur mere puttar pe gaya he, rang to dekhiye
kinna gora chitta, hayo Rabba nazar na lag jaye mere sone puttar
nu.
she put kala tikka behind his ear.
Veera; Balveer ye tumhari dadi he, your dad's mom
Bansuri; haan puttar me teri dadi hun chal aja mere paas.
Bansuri took him from Baldev.
Bansuri; aur ye tere dada hen.
Balveer; hi dada jee,..dadeee (he hugged her)
And bansuri went all aww...she hugged him with alot of love and
affection.
Bansuri; acha bta tu kya kahega, aaj sb apne sone ke liye bnaongi
Balveer; me soup peeyonga, chicken corn soup.
bansuri; hen? e ki he?
Veera; tayiji me bana lungi aap rehne dijiye
Bansuri; tu chup kr, innse saal hamare khoon ko hamse dor rakh ke
chen nhi mila tenu? ab phir apne bhashan dene aagai he, me khud hi
bana lungi apne puttar waaste kuch aur menu pta he ise zarur
pasand ayega.
Balwant; zara hamen bhi to milne do.
Baldev took the luggage upstairs
Balwant; puttar tu bhi ja upar mun haath dho le.
Veera; jee tayaji.
Veera went upstairs into Baldev's room, she was hesitating to step
in.
Baldev; ese kya ghabra rahi he, teri tarah nhi hun jo tenu apne se
door kr dun, aja, ye ghar ye kamra, aur me sb tera hi he abhi bhi.
She stepped in and stood silently.
Baldev; mene almari me tere aur Balveer k liye jaga bana di he, sheru
k liye na me ek choti si almari le k aaonga, uske kapde usme rakhna,
aur uske liye naya kamra sajayenge, uske khelne k liye.
Veera just stood silent. Then she opened her suitcase and started
adjusting her stuff in the cupboard, baldev was moving here and
there too and in the process they collided and she fell in his arms.
He caught her tightly. They looked into each other's eyes and
heartbeats raced, Baldev straightened her, and they both looked
away, they never felt so awkward ever before, and now when they
were married and had a child they were behaving as strangers, it
hurt them both but there was a lot of gap to overcome now.
Veera sat down and took her stuff out of the suitcase,and Baldev
went outside, she opened the drawer of the side table to put
something and saw her photograph, how different she was, a happy
newly in love Veera who was smiling widely, she stood up and
looked at herself in the mirror, how changed she looked, she was
not a bubbly girl anymore, but a responsible woman and a mom.
The lovely girl in her had died and she herself had killed her, she
left her heart and soul in pritampura while she lived in Delhi.
Balveer was the only reason she was alive, or esle she would have
succumbed to her pain and if not death, depression would have
taken over the best of her, she knew it was not Baldev's fault, and
that's why she still loved him as much as before or maybe a little
more. The circumstances had led her to take such a drastic step and
then she didn't have the bone to return. A tear escaped her eye and
Baldev saw this as soon as he entered, and her tear again stabbed
his heart, nothing had changed but alot had, their love was still the
same but they were unable to express it as before, and both
thought that the other has moved on.
Balveer came running.
Balveer; dad
Veera wiped her tears and turned, Baldev picked him up.
Balveer; wow, papa ye hamara room he
Baldev; haan puttar ye hamara kamra he
Balveer; its so big, delhi me our room was so small
he made gestures to make baldev understand, Baldev looked at
Veera in anger.
Baldev; teri waja se pind da shehzada gareebi me pala bada
Veera; mene ise kisi cheez ki kami nhi hone di baldev.
Baldev; acha! baap ki bhi nhi?
Veera got tears in her eyes.
Veera; Baldev, tu ye kesi baaten kr rha he (she moved out the room)
Balveer; dad mom ko kyun rulaya?
Baldev; mene nhi rulaya use, uske aansu to mujhse dekhe hi nhi
jaate, jab bhi wo roti he man krta he sb kuch tod dun
Balveer; (smiling wide) hi five dad, mujhe bhi, mom ne ek baar unke
phone pe kuch dekha aur rone lagi mene phone tod diya, i hate
tears, aur meri mom ki eyes me to bilkul ache nhi lagte
Baldev hugged him.
Baldev; (in his head) me na sahi, mera sheru to tha meri khadoos
sherni ka dhyan rkhne waaste.
