PART 4

They were on the way to the school. They spotted ashwini and sameer walking on the either sides of the road. Shlok stopped the car and they both got out of the car. Meseems like they both quarreled again. Aastha do one thing you go and talk to sameer and i'll talk to ashu. Aastha agreed with shlok and went to sameer to talk to him.

Hi sameer she said, sameer beamed with happiness. Hi di he said and hugged her tight, she too hugged him. He broke the hug and said "Di its been so long, have you forget me?" Arey no sameer, i would i forget you. Acha tell me one thing "Did you both had an altercation?" she got no response. Sameer im asking something answer me. Yes di he mumbled. Reason? Ashu broke my Watch. Di you know how much i like that watch and it was gifted by sanjay dada before going to chandigarh.When she broke broke my watch, i can't hold on my iracund and i berated and her broked her watch too and so, we both had an altercate. He explained himself to aastha.

On the other side of the road ashwini walking with tears in her eyes. Shlok stood infront of her but she didn't realise as she was drowning in her own thoughts. She bumped into him and opened her mouth to give him an earful but closed her mouth when she saw shlok. Hi sweety pie he said by waving his hand. She wished him and tried to wipe her tears. He cupped her face "what happened sweety pie, why are you crying?" Nothing dada. Im your dada right? Then tell me what happened? Dada i broke sameer's watch but it happened accidently. I don't mean to do dat. I've even apologized him but he insulted me in front of whole class cleeping me as four-eyes and moti. She explained everything to shlok and started crying.

No no sweety pie don't cry. He insulted you in front of whole class na, now we both together teach him a lesson what say? But nothing seems to convince her at that moment, she is still crying. Ashu stop crying yar, i hate tears you know said shlok by wiping her tears. No dada he insulted me in front of whole class. Ok i'll see his end today, now come he said and took her to the other side of the road where both aastha and sameer were standing.

Hey chootu meri sweety pie ko kyun rulaya thume? No shlok it was ashu's mistake she broke sameer's watch. Now ashu say sorry to sameer said aastha. Oh aastha rani you shut your mouth you don't know the whole story. Sameer say sorry to ashwini. But dada it was ashwini who did the mistake so she is one to say sorry said sameer. Acha why did you insulted her infront of whole class? Insult? What insult? What are you saying shlok? Arey aastha, sam insulted ashu infront of whole class by cleping her as moti and four-eyes. She looked at her sis who is still crying. Is it true sam? Sam lowered his eyes. Sam im asking, something answer me. Yup di. Say sorry to ashu right now. But di. No ifs and no buts say sorry to ashu said shlok dourly.

Sam moved towards ashu and slowly removed her glasses and wiped her tears and mumbled a sorry near her hear. Its not audible said shlok. He took a deep breathe "Ashwini im sorry please forgive me" he said with a little loud voice. Ok now lets go home. Wait shlok aastha stopped him. Ashwini wat abt you won't you apologise for your mistake. Di its sam who insulted me. But its you ashwini who created that situation. Now say sorry to sam. Aastha have you lost it, Its a small mistake. No shlok small or big, Mistake is a Mistake. Ashu are you waiting for propitious moment? Say sorry. Di i didn't mean to break it. it happend... ashu i agree with you. Though you've not done it intentionally but you've made a mistake right? So say sorry said aastha. Im sorry sam, ashu said finally. Its ok said sam and put her glasses again and they were back to their ususal self.

Shlok these two always fights for silly things. Same like us do you remember we used to fight the same way said shlok while the two school students were busy in discussing some thing. Suddenly shlok mobile started to beep. Its a whatsApp message. no messages, from his group. Messages from varsha, sid, mala and ankush asking about the dog incident. How did his frenzs know abt that? Well varun his another buddy. This guy is faster than BBC channel thought shlok and replied to the message "Busy right now, ping you guys later. Bye".

He turned his head and saw aastha smiling looking at the cute school friends and he too smiled imagining them in the place of two school friends infront of him.

Sam blurted something to which ashwini started to remove her shoe. Hey ashu stop doing that said shlok. Ashwini stopped as she only listens to shlok. Aastha why you both sisters remove your footwear to hit others asked shlok. Cuz we like doing that. Really i think you both inherited this quality from your progenitors. May be. Ok now lets go home.

They reached home within 10mins. Both ashwini and aastha got out of the car and went inside the house. Once they both went inside sam seized shlok's neck tightly. Dada why you always support ashwini? Arey sam chodo he winced. No first get me my watch. Now? Yes now that too the same watch which sanjay dada gave me. Are you insane or wat? No im not insane. its just your punishment for taking ashu's side. Ok leave me i'll get you the same watch, atleast change your school uniform. No dada i want now means now said sam. Having no other option shlok drove to a nearby shopping mall.

They both got inside and stood at doorway. Aastha opened her mouth say something to ashwini , but before she could say nything, ashu was in anjali's arms.

"Its been 17years, they were living without their mother. Aastha was 6years when her mother Manjula' left this world, and ashu was just 6 months baby. Atleast she got some love from her mother but ashwini, she didn't get any love from her mother and she won't get too. Why fate has to be soo cruel towards her sis? What is her sin? Is god really stone hearted? No, god never be stone-hearted. When all the doors get closed, somewhere he opens a window. Its true. From the perspective of aastha its true, and the proof is infront of her eyes in the form of her aunty Anjali'. God took away their mother from them, but gave another mother in the form of anjali. They call her as aunty but she was their mother in disguise and always will be. Ashwini used to cry for milk but never sucked milk from the feeding bottle. She used to kick the bottle with her tiny legs. It was again anjali who used to feed her from her breasts. Anjali's own daughter swetha was 2months baby. So, she used to feed both of them from her breasts. Everyone says that even a 1month baby has the capacity to cognize his/her mother, but its not the case with ashwini, for her anjali is the only mother. Yes After her mother's demise, anjali played a vital role in these two sisters lives. She used to feed ashwini, carry her in her arms whenever she wails in the middle of the night, gives her bath, sings lullabies for her, tell her stories and feed her from her own hands.

Aastha still remembered how happy anjali felt when ashwini first started walking with her tiny feet on her own nd anjali was the first to get worried whenever she sees ashwini ailing. Even aastha stay with agnihotri family till she had her first menstruation. After that aastha's papa and her dadi didn't allowed her to stay with them as she is now a grown up girl and it is a house of four grown up boys too and fear of society vulgar questions in the first place. A person easily escapes anything and everything but not society .

Its just a half part of her story. "She stayed happily till she was with anjali. After she left agnihotri's house, her own house sound like hell to her. Every nook and corner of the house is filled with her mother's memories. Her mother used to come and hug her from behind. When astha was about to touch her, she fades away in the air. Aastha used to cry for secs, mins or hours she don't know. She had no one in her house to share her pain. Her papa goes to office by 8 and returns at 8. Her dadi got paralyzed after hearing the death news of Manjula and ashwini was small girl who knows nothing about feelings and emotions. The house is a complete evanescene without her mother. She felt so.

She grappled a lot to live in her own house. Her house which was once a beautiful palace atleast she thought so is now not at all a home. Her papa once was a happy and live life to the fullest person has turned rigid and cold hearted. He is now a stranger to her. She don't know who is he, she hardly recognises him. Suddenly he has became a control freak. He restricted her from leaving the house and meeting her friends. She was confined to school and home and it is the only world for her. If she was allowed to go anywhere without permission, its only anjali's house. During nights it was sheer tourture for aastha. Ashwini who got used to a love and overindulgence from anjali was now started to irritate aastha. Not only nights during days too. She sometimes wants to spank her sis real hard but never did that as she very well remembered the word she had given to her maa.

Anjali and nirajan used to visit them on a daily basis. But not empty-handed. They used to bring fruits, sweets, food prepared by anjali in the name of ashwini. Though it was not their responsibility, but they made it as their responsibility and never made any mitigates in fulfilling them. She used to forget all her worries in anjali's embrace. Niranjan knows that his friend Aravind changed a lot after his wife's demise and turned dour towards his offspring. Niranjan as if understanding the two sisters yearing their papa papa's love, served them with his love, care and affection giving them a feeling that they had an uncle like papa. Both the sis stayed happy in the presence of niranjan and anjali but it was a momentary happiness.

She used to wokeup early morning, take her bath and put motifs infront of her house and made a habit to do Tulasi pooja. She learned cooking from anjali. So she is one to cook in her house too. She used to prepare both breakfast and afternoon lunch in morning itself. After serving breakfast to her papa and her sis, she packed lunch for both her papa and her sis. In her mother's absence, She stopped carrying lunch with her while going to school, instead she used to come home afternoon from the school with permission from school principal. All thanks to niranjan uncle. After coming home, she used to feed her dadi first as she got paraylized, then had her lunch. After having lunch she rushed to school before the allocated lunch time ends.

Circumstances changed aastha completely. She learned to live a compromised life. She learned to smile by camouflaging her tears. She professed to be happy. She now completely turned into a matured girl. She never used to share her fears and tears with any of her friends except shlok. Cuz he is the only one who see the tears behind her smile. Time flew with a very rapid pace and she didn't realise when shlok became her campanion. He used to make her laugh with his buffoonery, secrectly took her to movies of her fav hero, to pani puri stall, to parks, to shopping malls...etc ofcourse as a friend. he always stood by her side. He made her learn to live the life to fullest. He not only teases her but eases her pain too. Though her perspective towards her life changed completely but her interest towards studies and her aspires to pursue higher education has not changed. She stood topper in every standard except the year of her mother's demise.

She reached tenth standard. As usual her dedication and her hardwork made her topper of the class. She scored the highest grade in SSC and it the first highest grade in the history of her school and till now no one break that record. Everyone is happy for her. Especially agnihotri family. Unlike her papa, niranjan and anjali showeres her with gifts and dresses. She wants to pursue higher education but her papa was against her wish. She being a namby-pamby did not dare to ask the reason for his dissent. Having no option she informed to niranjan and anjali.

One fine morning niranjan and anjali visited Bharadwaj house to discuss with Aravind about aastha's education. Niranjan slowly put the subject in front of him. His friend being a monarch evinced his sheer dissent. When niranjan catechize his dissent, he got a simple answer that "they belong to middle class and cannot afford enough money for his offspring education". Niranjan tried to convice him and in the process they both had a little tussle too. Finally niranjan convinced him saying aastha is his daughter too and he too had some responsibilities towards his daughter and he will make aastha study under his tutelage. From that day aastha's respect towards niranjan increased multiple folds. Now she is doing her graduation with scholarship."

She still stood at the doorway watching the scene in front of her eyes with tears in her eyes. Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder and she tried to wipe her tears. Don't hide your tears from me beta. I can see them no matter how much you try to hide them. She joined her hands infront of him "Thank you so much uncle". For what beta? For entirety uncle. Don't mention Beta, i've done nothing. Seriously its nothing compared to what Manjula and Aravind did to me, and my family. Uncle i don't know how and in what way my maa and papa helped you, but i can't forget whatever you and aunty done to me and my sis. Im falling short of words to express my gratitude towards you, im forever in your debt uncle.

Niranjan cupped her join hands "Don't say that beta. I've never seen you and ashwini as my friends children. You both are always my daughters and trust me i never made any difference b/w my children and friend's children too. So no need of you thanking me ok and don't forget that you had an uncle like papa he said by wiping her tears." She unable to control her tears hugged him tight. He too hugged her by caressing her mane. After few minutes she broke the hug "Uncle you and aunty have done a lot for us and today i want to give something to you. Please ask something uncle. No beta for now i want bupkis. Ok Uncle but if you ever ask for something i won't say no for that, i promise. Soochlo beta ab wada kiya tumne. You should stand on it when i ask for something and no back tracking ok. Yes uncle its again a promise that i'll stand on my word" she said and again hugged him.

BECAUSE IT WON'T LAST FOREVER

AND IF THINGS ARE GOING BAD, DON'T WORRY
