Part_14
Veera tried to clear her mind.
Veera; Gunda?
Pammi; aur nahi to ki...wada wala badmash suna hai 50 pindon me thaska he uska, naaq me dam kr rkha he aur koi uske saamne mun nhi khol skta, surpunch kya wade wade mantari log bhi uske aage sir jhukaye khade rehte hen, bht hi khatarnaq log hen sachi, mere pati ki dukaan pe roz uske gunde aate hen, bhatta alag maangte hen aur jo chahe muft le jate hen
Veera was scared she couldn't believe her ears, it can't be him, it can't be her Baldev, the love of her life can't be a dangerous don.
Pammi; aur haan kaam itne khatarnaaq aur chehra ek dam masoom bache jesa bhola bhala kisi ko bhi dhoka de de, gora chitta sona munda he dekh k lagta he ache gharane ka shareef munda he, main bhi apne pati ki baat pe yaqeen nhi krti thi bhalla inne masoom chehre wala kese inna pohncha hua badmash hoskta he, phir mene bazaar me apni aankhon se dekha, jab use gussa aya, tauba Rabjee main bta nahi sakti, tab jab maine uski aankhon main wo aag dekhi, do raat neend nahi aayi menu, gusse me laal wo aankhen aaj bhi ache se yaad hain mujhe
Veera was in a state of shock, anger? but she had never seen him that way, she only knew a happy jolly Baldev, then what was Pammi talking about.
Pammi; bhalla ho us kudi ka jiska vyah hoga us se, uske chehre ki masoomiyat aur bholi chikni chupdi baaton main aa k koi bhi ladki palak jhapakte haan keh degi par vyah k baad najane ki hoga us bechari ka
Veera was sweating, she bit her lip in anxiety.
Pammi; ki hoya? tu kyun pareshaan hogai?
Veera; wo...main..Pammi...(she composed herself) main chalti hun ghar pe sab intizaar kr rhe honge
Pammi; acha changa main hun yahin phir zarur aana
Veera nodded and left, as she walked back Pammi's words haunted her. She was scared, it was her haldi next day and she came to know of this dangerous truth, she had no idea of what she was going to do, she just walked until she happened to cross the gurudwara, she stared at the door for a while and then decided to go inside.
She folded her hands and stayed quiet, tears falling from her eyes, it was a silent conversation between her and God. And then she closed her eyes.
Veera; Rabjee menu sahi raasta dikhao, aap hi batao menu kya karna chahiye
She swallowed hard and then slowly opened her eyes, she saw a plate full of kumkum infront of her, behind her some people were talking.
Man1; di hui zaban wapas nahi lende jee, wo kende hen na praan jaye par wachan na jaye
Veera recalled Ranvi's words, "ek baar zaban de di to me na nhi keh paonga unhe"
Veera; main samjh gai Rabjee aap kya chahte ho, aur hota to wahi he na jo aap chahte ho. To theek hai jo jesa chal raha he wesa hi rahega.
She left the gurudwara and saw the kid wjose life Baldev saved from the bull. The kid came to her.
Kid; Veera didi aap unhi se shaadi kr rhi ho na jisne menu bachaya tha
Veera nodded.
Kid; acha kr rhi ho, wo aapko hamesha bacha k rakhenge
Veera smiled and kissed the kids forehead. The kid ran away.
Veera; main jaanti hun Rabjee aap menu kya dikhana chahte ho, yehi na ke jo mene dekha wo us sb se bhad kr tha jo Pammi ne kaha, aur mere dil ne jo us waqt gawahi di thi wo galat nhi ho skti, jo insaan apni jaan pe khel k kisi ki jaan bacha skta he wo kabhi kisi ko nuqsaan nhi pohncha skta, unhe gussa ata he to ata rhe me sb seh lungi, pr apne dil ki baat aur veerji ki zubaan ko sharminda nhi krungi me, kabhi nahi
