Chapter 3
PREASENT
Jodha remembers those days. The day she got the death news of Jalal. Her whole world crushed down in a second.
Now he is here again. Just beside her. But difference is that she is still alive but Jalal is now being a spirit sitting beside her. And she still can't disclose her feelings to him. Now what is by telling him? Bolke ab kya fayda. She can't get him in her life. But if she didn't tell him then it will itch her hart.
"Jodha aj ek baat main tumse kahu? Jo main jeete jee nahi keh paya. Main kehna chahta tha. Jis din mera accident hua usdin main tumko phone karke milne ko bolne wala tha but use pehle hi..."
"kya bolna chahte the tum Jalal? "
"Jodha jis din hum pehli bar us busstand pe mile the who din yaad hai?"
Jodha remembered the day she mate with the first person for whom she will going to fall...
27th MAY 2014
There Mr. Sun is very angry on the living peoples in earth. Heavy heat pouring on them. Peoples are getting thirsty, drinking water lemonade or coconut water from the road side stall. The sale of the ice creams and soft drinks are going to competing with the first day first show ticket of ant famous movie.. But Mr. Sun didn't want to listen to the poor people's prayer and getting cool down. He didn't want to show any kind of mercy with them.
Jodha was standing on the Rash Bihari Avenue crossing towards Gariahat, waiting for Moti. Tomorrow is her parent's 30th anniversary. She want to give some special gift to them in this day. She want to surprise them. But it's too hot. She is cleaning the sweat drops which were flowing from her neck, chin, and forehead with her dupatta.
"arry ooo Jodha bai!!" a voice come through piercing the crowd of the crssing.
Jodha turn back and frown, "oh! God Moti, tum[C1] mujhe is naam se kab bulana bandh karogi?"
"Jab tujhe tera apna Shahensah meil jayega Jodha maiyya!!" Moti giggled.
"acha? Jab mujhe mera shehensah mil jayega to tu mujhe is nam se bulana chod dogi?"
"ha zaroor...tab to main tujhe Jodha bai nahi, Jodha begum bulaungi!!" Moti chuckled!
"off Moti tera kuch nahi ho sakta!"
"acha ye sab chod or bata tune kyu bulaya mujhe? Or who bhi itni hadbadi me?"
"who kya haina, kal mummy papa ki marriage anniversary hai, who bhi 30th. To main kuch special krna chahti hu undono ke lie. Kuch speacila kharid k dena chahti hu un dono ko."
Oh wow!! Chal. But Jodha I can give u only 3 hours. Uske baad mujhe shop pe wapas jana padega."
"okh 3 hrs are enough for me"
They took an auto headed towards Gariahat. Many saree stores are there. There are many footpath cloth stall where anyone easily can purchase their daily wear cloth in cheap price.
They first went to a shop. It's a saree store. Jodha remember Naina always want a Murshidabadi Silk. But her father didn't have that much money to bough a murshidabadi sil for his lady love. And she also never protest because she know their crisis. But she will have it.
She bought a Red and black Murshidabadi Silk saree for her mother and a khadi Punjabi and dhoti for her father. She know her father loves to wear dhoti.
After purchasing Jodha went to the nearby bus stand and waiting for her bus to come. Both of he and are full of bags.
Suddenly Jodha see something very unusual. A handsome man was kneeling down on his knee and doing something.
She don't know why but feel curious to know what he is doing. Slowly and silently she went towards the man and by crossing him she stood in front of him.
The view was heart touching. There was two beggar girls around 8-9 years having biscuits and buns with chai (tea) and that man was heeding kneeling down to a very cute little 3 years old small baby girl a glass of milk with his own hand. He placed that baby on his one thigh and feeding her and smiling and laughing on her each antics. She saw another person was coming towards him with two hands full of buns bananas and plastic wrapped candies. He handed the thing in his hand and he gave it to the other beggar poor boys and girls who were roaming around.
This incident blows a small chill of cold wind to her in this hot summer afternoon. In today's life no one did like this to them even she himself. But here he is feeding those beggar children with his own expenses.
Moti came there searching for Jodha and she saw Jodha was standing there looking on something. She went to her and see the scene. She feel very happy. She saw Jodha was watching the view being mesmerised.
Suddenly Jalal feel they are being watched by someone. He turns back and froze on that moment.
A beautiful girl. No not beautiful but an angel on earth was standing before him. His vision stick on that angel. He noticed she was starring on him with shock, happiness and amusement.
He was watching her hypnotisingly. No, he hadn't seen any more beautiful girl other than her till now. Her eyes like a fickle wild deer, her pink lipstick shaded lips that any man want to taste, her slip figure not too fat not too lean she is total perfect girl of any man's dream. But He wondered why she is looking at him like that.
Both are looking toward each other like there is no one other than them...
He was about to ask her what's her name. But before that a beautiful song played from the roadside CD stall. It was an old Hindi song, all says old is gold. In this situation Jalal thinks that the song actually describe their situation fully. It's describing the feelings both are having now after their first site of each other.
Mujhako jab aise dekhati ho tum, rang bhar jaate hain fijaao mein
Kasmasaati hai aarjoo dil mein, geet ghul jaate hai hawaao mein
He shockesd to listen the song. But soon he realised those are the words he want to say her right now.
(Jaadu bhari aankhon waali suno - (2)
Tum aise mujhe dekha na karo -2) - (2)
Jodha was starring at his features. His broad soldier, bright brown orbs like eyes, M shaped lips (guys I m in love with gurmeeet chaudhry's M shaped lips and his lotus typ eyes...ufff beside Rajat only he is the actor who make me weak on my knees) which is loking like a magnet to her and puling her toward him to kiss it till end. But she control. His perfect nose and slight fluffy backbrushed dark brown hairs.
(Jaadu bhari aankhon waali suno - (2)
Tum aise mujhe dekha na karo -2)
Both are looking at each other. Their heart ws singing the beautiful melody of the song.
Phir main koi ummid karu, phir mujhe koi armaan ho - (2)
Tum shaayad meri ban jaao, phir dil ko aisa gumaan ho
Par aisa na hota achchha hai, inn baaton mein kya rakha hai
Mujhko aisi ummid na do
The words of the last line strike him. Oh my god! What I am thinking! No no, she is an unknown girl. How can I think something about her? What if she mined it? And it's good not to make any kind of dream web in my heart about her. I didn't know her. But what it is? Why she is pulling me towards her in her first look.' He thought.
Jaadu bhari aankhon waali suno - (2)
Tum aise mujhe dekha na karo - (2)
No no please angle. Aise mujhe mat dekha karo. Agar tu mujhe aise hi dekhti rahi isi nigaho se to mujh tumhare yaar me girne e koi nahi rok sakta' his mind thought. Oh no what I am thinking. Abhi to mile and Pyaar?'
Phir dhadkam mein tum bas jaao, phir koi ghajal main gaau - (2)
Really if I fall in love with u will I sing a gazal for you? I don't know' Jodha thought. What love? Ye pyaar ka khayal aya kaha se. anjana ladka hai. Per kya aisa hai usme jo mujhe is kadar kheech raha hai apni or. Oh god! Ye kya ho raha hai mujhe?'
Phir chaand mein tumko dekhu, phulon mein tumko paau
Par aisa na hota achchha hai, isaka anjaam jo hota hai
Woh dard hi deta hai dil ko
Jaadu bhari aankhon waali suno - (2)
Tum aise mujhe dekha na karo - (2)
"Hello" a sweet female voice suddenly blow away his daydream.
He looked at her. She is standing there with a sweet smile on her lips waiting for his response.
"Hi, sorry maine dhyaan nahi dia ap pe"
"It's ok! I know aap bohot busy the."
"No. it's like main inse roz milt ahu. Or itne pyaar hai ke time ka dhyan nahi rehta." He stand up on his foot.
"sach kahu, maine kisiko bhi is tarha sadak ke gareeb bachcho ke lie itna pyar lutate nahi dekh."
"yeh mujhme automatic nahi hai." He said with a comical voice. "I didn't have any brother or sisters. Or waise nhi I am very selfish."
"matlab?
"I mean, roz ke kaam ke baad jab I feel very tired and become out of energy. I try to find peace with this little angels. To apne man ki shanti or sukun ke lie main in nanhe farishto ke saath waqt bitata hu. To hua na main selfish" he smile.
Jodha chuckled hearing this. Meanwhile Moti and Abdul came beside both.
Jalal pointing towards Abdul said, "He is Abdul Ahmadi, my best friend and neighbour. And now we work together also.
Abdul waved with hi' during placed his eyes on Moti.
Jodha pointing towards Moti and introduce her to them. She said a hi' to them gazing towards Abdul with a smile on her lips.
"Oh I forget to introduce myself. Pata nahi kya hoga mera." Jalal shied with Disappoint. Abdul chucked with others as well. "Hi I am Jalal, full name Jalaluddin Muhammad."
Moti look towards Jodha with a cunning smile on her face. Jodha watched her best friend's smile and remember her words few hours ago.
"Oh! God Moti, tum mujhe is naam se kab bulana bandh karogi?"
"Jab tujhe tera apna Shahensah meil jayega Jodha maiyya!!"
Jodha smiles idiotically towards moti and turn towards Jalal and said, "Hi I am Jodha. Full name Jodha Mehta." She said mimicking his lines. Jalal chuckled.
They all shares handshakes but at the end Jalal extend his hand towards Jodha.
"Nice to meet you Jodha."
"Nice to meet you too Jalal" she gripped his hand and shakes.
Both interacted and chatted for some time. But Moti and Abdul both can feel the way Jodha and Jalal looking towards each other might Mr. God had started his game of love between them.
