PART 28
Friday Evening:
Saraswati ran out the door and slowly walked towards the street. She had
lied to her parents about going to a presentation on human physiology at
school so she could meet Shitij. She had told him to park his car down the
road so no one would get suspiscious. Shitij saw her coming and got out
of the car to open her door. As she came close he saw how glamorous
she looked.Shitij could not keep his eyes off of her. She wore a simple red
sari with matching jewelery. Her heels made her the perfect height for
him and her makeup was done just right. Her hair was open and flowing
down her back which was revelead through the space in the fabric. Shitij
froze. He had never seen anything so beautiful.
Saraswati came near him and smiled, "Shitij aapne toh abhi se apna job
shuru kiya hai." She gestured towards him holding the door open. She got
into the car and he shut the door. The restaurant was not far and luckily
Shitij had heard of it before. Saraswati had recognized Bhavishya's car and
hurried to get inside. "Shitij are you ready?"
"Yup." Shitij felt nervous. He had never met Bhavishya before-what would
happen if Bhavishya got angry?
"Teak hai yeh lo dinner ke paise...or reservations are under your
name....hmmm or kya...haan mera haath pakro." Saraswati stuck out her
hand and smiled. Shitij took her hand and they walked to the front desk.
Laxmi was getting ready to go out with Satyakaam. She wore jeans and a
long blue sweater. Satyakaam had told her to wear something
comfortable. Though Laxmi's clothes were plain she had curled her hair
and wore jewelry to add some style. Her makeup was light but noticeable.
She had no idea where Satyakaam was taking her and wanted to be ready
for whatever surprise came her way. Her dad had been hesitant to let go
out since Saraswati and Yuvraj were not going to be home either. The
most surprising thing was that Durga also said she was going out and
would be home soon. Sryakant did not have much of a car for his
daughters but he was quite strict too. He felt that girls should be kept
within reach and not be allowed much freedom. these two things about
him contradicted themselves often. His carelessness would often result in
him leaving his values and letting the girls out. Laxmi climbed down the
terrace slowly- it was a good thing she had worn jeans. She planned to
wait for Satyakaam near the bach of the hosue so her father wouldn't see.
She could just imagine her evening. Satykaam would pull up quietly and
she would run to the car. She would hop in and they would drive off.
Satykaam would tell her that she lloked beautiful in everything she wore.
He would take her to a five star hoel adn they would eat adn dance the
night away. And maybe at the end he would lean in and kiss..HONK.
Laxmi jumped. Satyakaam arrived and he was very loud. She rushed to
the car so no one would come to see who honked. She opened the front
passenger door and to her surpise there sat Mini wearing jeand and a
halter top. "Get in the back!"
Laxmi was upset. What kind of evening was this? She couldnt imagine
going out for dinner with Satyakaam AND Mini..sh would just be a third
wheel. She got into the back and Satyakaam zoomed off.
Meanwhile Durga had gotten a rickshaw to follow Satyakaam's car. She
was worried for Laxmi and wanted to see where she was going.
Satyakaam's car turned into a gas station to get soem gas when the
rickshaw stopped. "Kya hua hai Bhai?"
"Behenjee woh rickshaw rukh gaya hai..main dekh ta hoon.. Teak hai par
chaldi karo."Satyakaam's car was in a line to reach the gas pump and
there were still a few cars in front so Durga knew she had some time. But
she wanted to be able to zoom off as soon as his car did.
"Behenjee,,,mujhe problem nazar nahin aara.Mujhe kisi ko bulaana
parega."
"Teak hai toh gas station main kisi se poocho."
"Nahin mujhe apne maalik ko bulana parega....acha yeh hoga ke aap
doosra rickshaw ya kuch dhoond lo....or main is safar ke liye koi paise
nahin loonga."
Durga sighed. "Teak hai." She hopped out of the rickshaw and walked
towards the parking lot. She was so focused on Satykaam's car that she
didnt see a car coming towards her. the car slammed hard on the breaks
and out came a young guy.
"Aap teak toh hain na?" Durga tried to hide behind him because the
screech of the breaks had caused a noise and she didnt want to draw any
attention from Laxmi.
"Durga?" Durga looked up to see Shazeb but could not remember his
name?
"Gee....um?"
"Main Shazeb..Yuvraj ka dost..vaise aap yahan kya kari ho?"
"Woh main..."Durga noticed his car. "Kya yeh aapki gaari hai?"
"Nahin yeh mere dost ki hai..par main istemaal kara tha."
"Can i get a lift?"
Shazeb looked surprised. "Haan of course..aap aaye."
Durga sat down in the car.
"Kahan jaana chaati ho? Ghar?"
"Nahin...ek minute..aapko woh silver gaari nazar aari hai?"
"Gee."
"Uske peeche jaana hai."
"Kyun?" Durga told the whole story to Shazeb. She knew that he was not
going to gain anything from hearing about Laxmi's new social circle.
Shazeb looked happy. He had been waiting for a chance to help Durga
and he knew this was it. "Of course main aapko help karoonga." They
drove off.
Yuvraj drove to the place where he had seen that girl. He didnt believe
she was a tawaif and was going to prove it to himself once and for all. He
got out of his car and a whole bunch of girls surrounded him.
"Kinna sona hai!"
"Paise vala ve lagda hai." Yuvraj was embarassed. The girls were touching
him and staring. He just wanted to find that girl..prove she wasnt a tawaif
and run out of there. "Sunye main kisi ladki ko dhoondra hoon."
"Ooooo yahan toh bhot sari ladkiyan hai..kistera ke chaaye.. pathli.. moti..
lambe baal wali?" All the girls giggled. Yuvraj moved away from them and
crashed into a tall serious looking ladyl. Yuvraj could tell that at one point
she was very beautiful but her age and stress had taken over that beauty
and placed a harshness on her.
"Main tumhari madat karti hoon.Aao mere saath." Yuvraj followed her into
a small room in one of the flats. He felt very nervous and could not
control his heartbeat. "Kis ko dhoondre ho?"
"Woh main ek dafa pehle aaya that tho maine ek ladki ko dekha..toh main
usse milna chaara tha."
"Yahan pey bjot ladkiyan hain...beta..aap ache ghar ke ladke lagre hain?
Toh yahan?"
"Woh...."
"Beta shayad aapko nahin pata key aap kahan aage hain. Par main advise
karti hoon aap yahan se chale jao."
"Pehle main uss ladki se milna chaata hoon...usse kuch poochna hai."
"Kya?"
"Woh sach mein tawaif hai?"
The lady started to laugh. "Oho beta yahan pey sab tawaif hai...main bhi
thi." She started to cry. Yuvraj was startled. He got up to leave but she
grabbed his hand. "Beta please suno. Ab yahan pey kabhi na aana. Chale
jao yahan sey." Yuvraj ran out of the room--she was crazy he decided. He
saw his car and was about to go to it when he heard the familiar voice
coming from a room upstairs in another flat. He walked slowly towards
the room and saw that he could climb write to the room if he was careful.
He climbed up and peeked into the window. There, in front of a mirror sat
the beautiful girl brushing her hair.
Saraswati and Shitij sat down at their table which was in close proximity
to Bhavishya's. Bhavishya was in a deep discussion with a fellow
businessman. Saraswati smiled at Shitij. "Chalo ..let's start. We need to
get Bhavishya's attention."
Shitij was worried. Never in his life had he imagined he would do
soemthing so stupid. But he loved Saraswati and would jump off a train if
he had to just to keep her near him. He took Saraswati's hand and said
loudly," Saraswati you look amazing..sach mein itni khoobsoorat ladki
maine zindagi mein bhi nahin dekha." Saraswati laughed loudly causing
Bhavishya to look up. His face went from surprised to confused to angry
to furious. Saraswati was happy. She knew her plan had worked and
would continue with it. Shitij saw Bhavishya and realized that he was a
great actor. Bhavishya was furious and was having problems focusing on
the meeting now. Shitij and Saraswtai continued eating and and playing
their little game of making Bhavishya jealous.
"Shitij ask me to dance?"
"Kya?"
"Mujhe dance ke kiye bolo?"
"Kyun?"
"Isleeyay kay Bhavishya dekhe ga or jal jayega.Please!"
"Saraswati mujhe dance karna nahin aata." Shitij lowered his voice to a
whisper that Sarasati could barely hear.
"Kya????"
"Mujhe dance nahin aata."
"Phir se bolo mujhe awaaz nahin aari." She leaned in close to hear him.
From whrer Bhavishya was sitting it looked as if Saraswati had kissed him.
Bhavishya quickly excused himself from the table and stormed out of the
restaurant. Shitij had realized what had happened and told Saraswati who
was filled with joy.
"Toh chale??" Shitij stood up.
"No way...ab toh main bhot khush hoon..I am going to to teach you to
dance." They made their way to the dance floor and Saraswati and Shitij
both had an amazingly fun night.
Satyakaam pulled up to a place called FUSION. Laxmi had heard of this
place before and knew this wasnt a fancy restaurant as she had imagined
but a dance club and pub. She got out of the car slowly and made her way
inside.
Durga saw Laxmi go inside and was furious. She jumped out of the car
and walked towards the entrance with Shazeb following. "Durga?"
"Haan?"
"Kahan jaa rahi ho?"
"Laxmi ko lene...hamare khandan mein clubs or pubs peh nahin jaate."
"Durga hum aise karte hain key hum bhi andha jaake ke side pey beht the
hain..or agar kuch stupid kare hum usse ghar leke jayenge. Teak hai?"
"Haan aap se kehre hai..Shazeb thanx for coming." Shazeb smiled and
they made their way inside.
Laxmi was not happy. The music was loud and everyone was dressed
inappropriately. But the worst part of all was the drinking. No one in the
Garodia family drank.It was totally against thier values. Laxmi felt akward
and sat by herself to the side. She watched Mini get Satyakaam drink after
drink.Laxmi sat there and felt bored she wanted to dance because that
was the only other option other than drinking.
Durga and Shazeb got soft drinks and sat on the side. They couldnt see
Laxmi from there and moved to the second floor so they had a view of the
whole dance floor. They watched couples dance but started to get bored.
Shazeb started a conversation and they both started talking.
Satyakaam came up to Laxmi and asked her to dance. Laxmi was so
excited she stood up and grabbed his hand. She pulled him to the dancr
floor b4 he changed his mind. Mini had already found someone else to
talk to so she didnt seem to concerned.After a while of dancing and
Satyakaam still drinking he asked her to come with him. Laxmi was
hesitant but Mini came up behind her and sid that nothin could go wrong
as Satyakaam and Laxmi were just "friends".
Laxmi followed Satykaam to a corner where Satyakaam started being
forceful. He kept trying to kiss laxmi but she pushed him away.
"Satyakaam rukh jao."
"Come on Laxmi..hum bache nahin hain...we are adults."
"Satyakaam main bolo hai na choro." She started to walk away when
Satyakaam pulled her back and pushed her against the wall. Her sleeve
got ripped and she started to cry for help. The music was so loud that no
one could hear and the people who could hear did not want to interfere.
From the side Mini watched happily her plan ahd worked. Now Laxmi
would never interfere in her love life.
Upstairs Durga and Shazeb were involved in a deep conversation with
each other. Durga looked down for just a second when she realized that
she didnt see Laxmi they both went running down the stairs. They looked
everywhere and finally spotted Satyakaam. Shazeb ran up and grabbed
Satyakaam from the side and pushed him into a table. Laxmi ran into
Durga's arms and cried. Satyakaam and Shazeb took a few more blows
from each other when Dugra told Shazeb it was not worth beating up
such a rotten person.
Yuvraj climbed into the room. The girl turned around startled and was
about to yell when she recognized him." Aap?"
"Dekho aap fikar na karo main bas aapse milne aaya hoon."
Yuvraj slowly entered the room and walked to the girl. She stood up and
told him to take a seat. She looked around his age or younger but she
had something he didnt -confidence.
"Koi kaam hai?"
"Woh main....actually."
"Ab wapas kyun aaye ho?" Yuvraj did not know how to answer. He stared
at her as she flipped her hair and sat down beside him. She knew how to
entrance a guy with just one look. She started to braid her long hair as
Yuvraj watched her. She got up and looked out the window," Woh aapki
gaari hai?"
"Gee haan."
"Oh wow baari achi gaari hai...aapne apna naam nahin bataya."
"Haan sorry I'm Yuvraj-Yuvraj Garodia."
The girls eyes lit up as soon as he said Garodia."Aap yahan intezzar
karo...main abhi aaye." She slipped her feets into a pair of flat sandles
and left the room. As she ran throguh the halls anywhere on her way
moved to the side. She ran and through open a door leading to a brightly
colored room. The room was decorated with candles and had guys sitting
all around it on big pillows. In the center were two girls dancing. The girl
entered and the music stopped. The girls in the middle steeped to the
side sat down. All the guys in the room looked happy to see her but she
carefully ignored them adn walked to a lady sitting on a special pillow
being fanned by a few younger girls.
"Rasili Bai...mere paas itni khushi ki khabar hai."
"Kya Hai?"
"Mere kamre mein Yuvraj Garodia beta hai?"
"KYA?!"
"Haan main sach kehri hoon..yaad hai uss din maine kaha tha ke koi ladka
baar se hi chala gaya tha..woh andhar nahin aaya tha..woh Garodia
Khandan ka beta tha. Or aaj woh kirkee se mere kamre mein aa gaya hai."
"Hai yeh to bhot achi baat hai...main abhi aati hoon?" Rasili and the girl
excused themselves from the room and hurried back upstairs. They
slowly opened the door and peeked in. Yuvraj was now standing by the
window looking outside. Rasilibai was thrilled. "Meri pyaari se jaan..aapko
toh pata hai ke aapne kya karna hai. Humain Yuvraj chaaye...nahin Yuvraj
nahin Yuvraj ke paise. Isse itni jaldi jaane na dena or jab jayega...isse
aapki yaad aana chaaye."
"Teak hain Rasilibai..yeh kaam main hi karskti hoon." The girl entered the
room.
Yuvraj turned and looked up as the girl slowly walked toward shim slowly.
She stuck out her hand adn he took it. "Yuvraj Garodia...aap se milkar
bhot khushi hui hai." She took Yuvraj's hand into both of her hands.
Yuvraj felt weak in his legs. Her touch had a certain hypnotic feel to it."Or
aapka naam?"
She looked up and winked. "Kajri..just Kajri."
Durga and Shazeb took Laxmi outside away from the club. Shazeb let
Durga choose where they would go. She took them to a bench and sat
down with Laxmi. No one said anything but everything was said. Laxmi
knew she had made a mistake and Durga knew Laxmi was sorry. Laxmi
could not stop crying. Shazeb put his hand on Laxmi's back. Durga not
realizing put her hand on Shazeb's. They both looked up and into each
other's eyes. They both felt something different for the first time.
song At the Garodia mansion The phone was ringing and Savitri ran to answer
it. She listened quietly for a few minutes and hung up. Suryakant walked
into the room.
"Savitri kaun tha phone par?"
"Baa aari hai!"
"Kya...kab?!"
"Kal shaam thak ponch jayegi."
"Jaldi karo sab ko bulao....Baa aari hai...sab kuch set hona chaaye."
