Part 2

"Malhar ji, Malhar ji,... murmured Kalyani in her semiconscious state. "Kalyani, Kalyani beta aankhein kholo dekho main yahan hoon. Aai hai tumhaare paas. Anupriya caressed her daughter's cheek. "Malharji, Malharji, MALHARJI! screamed Kalyani as she came back to her senses. Anupriya hugged her. "Shukar hai bhagwaan ka tumhe hosh aa gaya beta. Pata hai main kitna darr gayi thi. Kalyani beta tum theek toh ho na? Sarthak felt relief too. Where is he? How is he?' The last thing she remembered before becoming unconscious was the doctor saying that he was sorry for losing the patient. No it can't be true, he can't leave her, he can't leave Pillu, he can't, he did not have the right to leave them alone, he couldn't have, he shouldn't have. Malharji please! Don't go.' These thoughts were going on in her mind.

"Aai, Malharji? Mujhe Malharji ko dekhna hai, mujhe unse milna hai. Aai Malharji kahan hai? Aai Malharji kaise hain? Wo theek toh hai na? Aai bolona! Kalyani tried to get out her mother's tight hold. Anupriya cared only for her daughter whereas all Kalyani wanted to know was about Malhar. "Kalyani beta shaant ho jaao. Tumhaari tabiyat theek nahi. Tum beshosh ho gai thi beta. Sarthak tried to calm her down. "Kaka, main theek hoon. Malharji? All she wanted was to hear about Malhar, to see him, to feel him, for him to be alright, for him to be there for her and Pillu. Non-stop tears rolled down her cheeks. Her heart was filled with pain and hope, pain that something was wrong with Malhar and hope for him to be alright. She once again asked desperately about Malhar. "Kalyani, Malhar. Wo Malhar... Malhar tum wahan kyun baithe ho dekho na meri beti kitni pareshan ho rahi hai tumhaare liye. Anupriya loved Malhar like a son but Kalyani was her daughter, so she by default cared about her more.

Kalyani looked in the direction Anupriya was. Flowing tears made her vision blur. She rubbed her eyes to clear her vision. There he was sitting on the sofa. "Malhar ji? Kalyani jumped out of bed, leapt in his direction, dragging the IV stand with her. She sat near him and pressed his face between her palms and made sure it was him. "Kalyani kya kar rahi ho tum? She hugged him and began to cry again. "Ah!, Kalyani dhyaan se. Malhar felt pain as she unknowingly touched near his wound. "So..sorry Malharji. She said sobbing. He wiped her tears. "Kalyani, main theek hoon. Ok stop crying, main theek hoon. "Aap theek hain? Aap sach mein theek hain. Bappa ka shukar hai aap theek hain. Main toh... She put her hand on her mouth, she shouldn't even say that. "Kalyani rona band karo, main theek hoon. She hugged him once more. "Thank God Malhar ji aap theek hain. Agar aapko kuch ho jaata toh main kya karti aapke bina. Malhar winced in pain. "Ah! Kalyani main theek hoon, lekin itna bhi nahi. Pistol ki goli lagi hai vitamin ki nahi.

She moved back but did not release him from the hug. Their faces were inches away. She saw a faint smile on his face. "Aap muskura rahe hain? "Nahi main muskura toh nahi raha. "Malhar ji maine dekha aap muskura rahe hain, boliye kyun? Kis khushi mein? She had been scared to death worrying that something would happen to him and here he was smiling. Maine tumhaare saath na jaane kya kya kiya hai Kalyani phir bhi tumhe meri itni fikar hai. Aaj mujhe kuch ho jaata toh tum meri qaid se aazaad ho jaati, tumhaare liye khushi ki baat hoti toh kyun mujhe darr ye dard dikh raha hai tumhaari aankhon mein. Kyun ye tadap hai tumhaare mein? Kyun mujhe khud ke kareeb pakda hua hai.?' Malhar quietly looked into her eyes to find answers to his questions. She jerked him, "Boliye na kyun muskura rahe hain? "Bas aise hi. Mere lips hain meri marzi, main muskuraoon ya moonh banaoo. She got angry at his answer and pushed him away.

"Kalyani dhyan se use chot lagi hai. Anupriya scolded her. Kalyani looked at him. "Sorry Malhar ji, aapko goli lagi hai? "Nahi Kalyani main toh time pass mein ye sling pehenkar baitha hoon. Malhar sweetly taunted his personal dummy. "Seedha jawab denge toh aapki gardan ki length kam nahi ho jaayegi. Her fear of losing him had given her a strange courage to talk back at him. "Malhar ji aapko goli lagi hai toh aap sofe par kyun baithe hain? Aapko toh bed par hona chahiye, rest karna chahiye. "Wo mera bed mujhe khali karna pada. "Kyun? Aapka insurance cover hai na toh bed kyun khali kar diya aapne? "Maine bed khali nahi kiya par mujhe karna pada meri patni jo behosh ho gayi thi. "Toh kya hua? Aapki patni behosh... Sorry Malharji. Aapko meri wajah se bed khali karna pada. Chaliye uthiye bed par lait jaaiye. Kalyani it's ok mujhe ghar jaana hai, mujhe hospital pasand nahi hai. "Kya it's ok. Chup chap lait jaaiye. Malhar lied down on the hospital bed. Kalyani adjusted it to his comfort. Sarthak and Anupriya were silently watching them.

The door of the hospital room opened. In walked the attending doctor. "So how are my patients doing? He asked with a pleasant smile. "How are my patients doing? Doctor, aapko doctor kisne banaya? Kya kaha tha aapne? I'm sorry hum patient ko bacha nahi sake. Bacha nahi sake? Toh ye kaun hai? Aapko sharam nahi aati patient ki family se jhoot bolte hue. Kalyani attacked the doctor. "Kalyani, shant ho jaao. Anupriya and Malhar both tried to calm her down. "Mrs. Rane, maine kab ACP Rane ka naam liya tha. Maine toh uss criminal ki baat ki thi jiska operation ho raha tha. Constable Pawar ko maine uss criminal ke baare mein bataya. Kalyani looked at Malhar, then Anupriya and Sarthak. "Toh Malharji, operation theater mein kya time paas kar rahe the? "Kalyani, acche se baat karo doctor se. Anupriya tried to get Kalyani to calm down. "Doctor, aap please mera check up kar lijiye aur mujhe discharge kar dijiye. "Malhar, ek do din toh under observation rehna hoga tumhe. "Kaka please aapko pata hai mujhe hospitals nahi pasand. "Main dekhta hoon main kya kar sakta hoon. I will do what is best for the patient. The doctor left.

"ACP sahib, wo DCP sahib ka phone aaya hai. Pawar entered and handed the phone to Malhar. It was understood by Malhar's words and reactions that the DCP praised him for his bravery. The criminal was dead but they had received a break-through in the case that he had been accused of. Kalyani snatched the phone from Malhar's hand. "Sir, Malhaji ko doctor ne rest karne ko kaha hai toh kya wo aapse baad mein baat kar sakte hain? The DCP hung up. "Kalyani ye kya badtameezi hai? Main apne senior se baat kar raha tha. "Jaanti hoon main par pehle mujhe mere sawalon ka jawab chahiye. Aapka treatment ER mein ho gaya tha toh aap OT mein kyun the? "Pawar, tum bataoge Kalyani ko ya main bataoon? Malhar in his typical angry sweet tone asked Pawar. "Sir, ab main kya boloon? Main wo sorry sir, sorry madam. Pawar escaped from the room. Kalayni turned to Malhar. "Wo, maine uss criminal ko apne saath hathkadi mein baandha tha. Uss hathkadi ki chaabi Pawar se gum gayi iss liye ER mein hum dono ki first treatment ke baad bhi mujhe OT mein patient ke saath rehna pada. "Pawar bhau! Kalyani tried to contain her anger.

Malhar was discharged from the hospital and brought home. Sarthak did not wish to come to Ahilya Nivas and Anupriya too went to their side of the house. Kalyani carefully made him sit on the bed. "Main nikalti hoon. Kalyani said before Malhar bent to remove his shoes. "Kalyani main kar loonga. "Maine kaha na main nikaalti hoon. She removed his shoes and put his legs on the bed. She adjusted the pillows behind his back to make him comfortable. Malhar looked over at Moksh's crib, it was empty. "Arre Deva, Malhar ye ho gaya! Aparna was being over dramatic with her fake concern. "Atya, please roye mat aur hai hai mat kijiye. Malhar ji ko kuch nahi hua hai wo zinda sahi salamat hain aur rahenge. Please aise hai hai karke upshagun mat kijiye. Jaaiye aur Moksh ko lekar aaiye. Kalyani sternly told Aparna. Kalyani put Malahar's medicines on the side table. "Malhar ji main aapke liye soup lekar aati hoon. She avoided making eye contact with him. She returned with his soup and Moksh's feeder. Kalyani placed the bed table over Malahar's legs. "Malharji main aapko soup pilati hoon aap Pillu ko doodh pilaiye. "Kalyani main pee loonga. "Ek baar jo kaha aapne suna nahi, mujhe apni bat dohrana accha nahi lagta. She put Pillu on the bed facing Malhar and gave him the feeder. "Malhar ji aa kijiye. She put the spoon in front of him. "Kalyani, mujhe soup moonh se peena hai naak se nahi. She did not look at him but lowered the spoon so he could drink the soup. Again the same thing happened, "Kalyani agar soup pilaane ka mann nahi ai toh rehne do na main khud pee sakta hoon. Main jaanti hoon ki aap sab kuch kar sakte hain lekin abhi mujhe wo karne dijiye jo main karna chahti hoon. After feeding him she left him alone with Pillu.

"Malhar ji aap ki medicine ka time ho gaya hai. "Kalyani main... "Medicine, moonh kholiye. She put the medicines in his mouth and made him drink water. Again she left him alone. This continued for the remaining day. She made minimum contact with him. At night, Malhar and Pillu were both sleeping. Kalyani could not sleep, every time she closed her eyes she opened them within a second and checked on the bed to see if Malhar was there. In the morning when Malhar opened his eyes he saw Kalyani sleeping in a sitting position near the bed on the floor. He stroked her hair gently. "Kalyani. He whispered but she woke up baffled. "Malharji! . She sighed of relief on seeing him in front of her. "Tum aise kyun so gayi thi? "Aapse matlab? She avoided looking at him but he caught her hand. "Ruko, tum aise nahi ja sakti. Dekho meri taraf. She did not look at him, jerked his hand and left.

"Malhar ji aap kahan ja rahe hain? Malhar heard fear in her voice. "Kalyani main washroom ja raha hoon fresh hone ke liye. "Main bhi aati hoon. "Kahan? "Aapke saath. "Kalyani. "Malhar ji. He went to the washroom. "Malharji, eee kjiye. She said putting toothpaste on his toothbrush. "Kya karoon? "Eee. She showed him her sparkling with teeth. She brushed his teeth, washed his face. "Malharji, sur kijiye. He blew his nose and she cleaned it. She dabbed his face dry. "Kalyani, bahar jao. "Kyun kya karna hai? Main hoon na. He showed his pinkie. "Aao ye bhi karwa do. "Nahi it's ok. She waited outside the washroom. She took him to the room. She was acting totally opposite to the previous day. "Malhar ji aapki daily regime kya hai? "Daily regime? Jogging, kick boxing, push ups aur weights. "Tch wo daily regime nahi aapki skin care, hair care ki daily regime. Maine itne mahino mein aapko kabhi skin aur hair care karte nahi dekha. "Kya? main wo sab nahi karta. "Haan wo aapki skin aur hair ko dekhkar pata chalta hai aur kisi... She was thinking of Sampada, how she had maintained her skin and hair spending all of Malhar's hard earned money. "Kalyani use galiyaan mat do. "Kyun aapko bura lag raha hai ki main use galiyaan de rahi hoon? "Nahi mujhe iss baat ka bura lag raha hai ki tum galiyaan de rahi ho, use kya main nahi chata ki tum kabhi bhi kisi ko galiyaan dekar apna moonh ganda karo. "Aapko kya fark padta hai aap toh... She stopped in mid sentence. She glued herself to him that day. Malhar could not understand her behavior. He had never seen her like this hell he had never seen anyone behave like this.

"Malhar, kaisa mehsoos kar rahe ho? Anupriya asked on seeing him sitting on the stairs. "Main theek hoon mai par Kalyani ka kuch samajh nahi aa raha. Wo bahut ajeeb bartaav kar rahi hai. Kal sirf kaam ke liye mere paas aati thi aur aaj subah se mujhse chipki hui hai. Mujhse nazre nahi mila rahi thi kal aur aaj mujhpar se uski nazar nahi hat rahi. Abhi bhi kitni mushkil se room se nikalkar yahaan aaya hoon. Mujhe aur Moksh dono ko akeli sambhal rahi hai. Mujhe kuch bhi khud nahi karne de rahi aur naa hi Moksh ko aai ko diya hai. Anupriya lovingly caressed his back. "Moksh ko aaj raat tai ke paas chod do aur Kalyani se baat karo. Tum dono ke liye ye zaroori hai Malhar. He came back to the room and saw Kalyani getting Moksh ready for the night. She gave him a sponge bath, powered and dressed him. "Kalyaani, Moksh ko aai k paas chodkar aao. "Kyun? "Kal se main tumhaari baat maan raha hoon toh tum meri ek baat nahi maan sakti? Moksh ko chhodkar aao.

Kalyani came back to the room, Malhar was waiting for her. "Darwaza lock karo aur idhar aao. She bolted the door and sat next to him. "Kalyani, kya baat hai? Kya hua hai? Batao mujhe. Kal tum mere paas nahi aa rahi thi aur aaj mujhse door nahi reh pa rahi ho. "Aap nahi samjhenge. "Toh samjhao mujhe. Main samajhna chahta hoon. Tum jaanti ho na jab tak mujhse kahogi nahi mujhe sunai nahi dega, tum samjhaogi nahi main samjhoonga nahi. "Aap sunna chahte hain? Kya aap sun payenge? Aap samajhna chahte hain? Kya aap samajh paayenge? Tears started falling. "Tum ro kyun rahi ho? "Aapki wajah se rona aa raha hai. "Lekin maine daataan bhi nahi.Aapko kya lagta hai ki main sirf tab roti hoon jab aap daanttein hain? "Toh, aur kab roti ho? "Aapki fikar mein bhi rona aata hai. Par aap nahi samjhenge. "Samjhao, please. She started crying. He wiped her tears. She cried even more.

"Aap khud ko samajhte kya hain? She had fire in her eyes. "Matlab? Aur tum mujhse aise baat kyun kar rahi ho? "Aapko kyia lagta hai gussa sirf aapko hi aata hai? Nahi mujhe bhi aata hai. Bahut gussa aata hai. Aap par bahut gussa aata hai. "Kalyani. "Chup! Ek dum chup! She placed her finger on his lips. "Aaj sirf main boloongi aur aap sunenge. "Kya samajhte hain aap khud ko? Bahut bade ACP hain? Aap bhool rahe hain ki ACP hone ke saath aap ek pati aur pita bhi hain. Desh ke liye aapki duty hai main jaanti hoon par kya mere aur Pillu ki taraf aapki koi duty nahi hai? Main jaanti hoon ki aapki job mein khatra hai par kya mere aur pillu ki khaatir aapko khudko safe nahi rakhna chahiye? Criminal ko pakadna aapke liye zaroori hai par aap mera saath na chhode ye mere liye zaroori hai. Jitni zaroorat aapke desh ko aapki hai utni hi apki patni aur bte ko hai. Police officer bante waqt aapne desh ki raksha ki kasam khai thi, mere saath shadi ke waqt ki kasmein ap bhool gaye? Pillu se jo vaade kiye the wo bhi bhool gaye? Aap ko desh aur duty yaad rahi par main aur Pillu nahi. Malhar ji iss desh ko aur kai bahadur police officer mil jayenge par mujhe doosre Malhar ji nahi milenge aur naa hi Pillu ko doosre baba. Aap kyun nahi samajhte hain ki aapki zindagi sirf aapki nahi meri aur Pillu ki bhi hai. Kal kitna darr gayi thi main jab doctor ne wo baat kahi thi aur aap aapko hansi aa rahi thi. Koi fikar nahi hai meri aur Pillu ki. Bhagwaan na kare agar aapko kuch toh main aapke bina... Aapne ek baar nahi socha agar aap mujhse door ho gaye toh mera kya hoga. Iss liye main kal aapse door rahi, mujhe pata hai aapko koi fark nahi pada lekin maine jaan liya ki main aapke bina nahi jee sakti. Aaj poora din aapko laga ki main aapse chipak rahi thi lekin main aapko akele chhodne se darr rahi thi ki kahin aap mujhse door na ho jaaye. Jaan liya jo jaan na tha? Sun liya jo sunna tha? Samajh aaya ya nahi? Malhar did not say a word. He just kept on staring at her. "Nahi samjhe na kyun ki dil nahi hai aapke paas. She got up but he caught her by the wrist and pulled her down to him and hugged her as tightly as possible. "Koi di se kahe toh dosre ka dil sun leta hai, koi pyar se samjhaye toh doosra samajh leta hai. Jo tumne kaha maine suna aur jo nahi kaha wo bhi maine suna. Jo tum samjhana chahti thi wo samajh gaya.

"Bahut raat ho gai hai aap so jaaiye, mujhe bhi neend aa ahi hai. She got up to make her bed. He caught her hand and pat on his shoulder. "Mere kaandhe bahut mazboot hain Kalyani, inpar apna sar rakhkar dekho ye tumhaari saari pareshaniyon ka bojh utha lenge. Kalyani sat down on her side of the bed and rested her head on his shoulder. "Bas thodi der. "Jab tak tum chaho. She closed her eyes and drifted off. Kalyani, hum use bhool sakte hain jisse humara pyar ka rishta ho par hum use kabhi nahi bhool sakte jiske saath humaara dard ka rishta ho. Wo jis se maine itna pyar kiya tha use mere dard ka kabhi ehsas nahi tha aur tum jise maine itna dard diya uske pyar ka ehsaas mujhe nahi hua. Par ab nahi, ab aur nahi.

Tum bin jau kahan...' played on the radio on low volume as Malhar rested his head on Kalyanis and drifted off into sweet sleep.

Precap: Kalyani's tender love and care, too much for Malhar to bear
