Part 2
It was almost late afternoon when Rishabh woke up once his drug dose waived off. He blinked his eyes several times before opening them properly. He looked around the room and wondered how he reached here, because the last thing that he remembered was standing in the courtroom. He also had a vague memory of Prerna massaging his head in the car and unconsciously his hand went to his forehead. He wondered if that was a dream or did that moment actually happen? Before his chain of thoughts could go any further, Prernaās voice brought him back to reality
āAap uth gaye?ā
Prerna smiled at him as she walked towards the bed with the food tray in her hand. She placed it on the side table and helped Rishabh to sit straight. But once again he tried to jerk her hand and refused her help. Prerna rolled her eyes at him
āMr Bajaj, you like it or not. Main aap ki help karne wali hun..ā
Rishabh wanted to argue but he felt too tired to do so, hence he just let Prerna hold him and make him sit against the headboard. Prerna picked the food tray and placed it on her lap, as soon as Rishabh scanned the dish on the plate he made a cringe face
āYeh kya hai?ā
āApke liye khana lai hun..ā
Prerna shrugged her shoulders and replied to him, now it was Rishabhās turn to roll his eyes at her.
āDikh raha hai. But main yeh nahi khane wala..ā
āMr Bajaj, Doctor ne bola hai ki aapko light and healthy food khana hai.. Isliye aap ke liye main khas dal-khichdi bani haiā
āWhatever, but main yeh nahi khane walaā¦ā
āMr Bajaj lekin..ā
āMujhe kuch nahi sunna, main yeh nahi khane wala bas. Aap chandu ko bolke mere liye soup banva dijiye..ā
Rishabh said with a finality in his tone and crossing his arms across his chest he turned his face to the other side. Prerna looked at Rishabh astonishingly, she did expect him to throw tantrums for having dal-khichdi but she wasnāt expecting him to behave so childishly.
āChandu Aaj chutti pe hai. Aur aap ko kya lagta hai aise bachon ke jaise muh fula ke baith jaoge toh main aapko yeh nahi khilaungi?ā
Without looking at her Rishabh nodded his head slightly, Prerna called his name and asked him to look at her but Rishabh didnāt pay heed to her words.
āMr Bajajā
Prerna called him again but Rishabh continued to ignore her, she had started getting annoyed by his actions. She cupped his face with one hand and forcefully made him look at her, Rishabh opened his mouth in protest but Prerna took advantage of it and forcefully fed him the first spoon. He had to literally gulp it down his throat so that he could speak before Prerna could feed him another spoon
āYeh kya kar rahi hain aap?ā
āAap bachchon ke jaise behave kar rahe hain isliye main aapko waise hi khila rahi hun jaise bachchon ko khilate hai..ā
āLekin main bacha nahi hunā
Rishabh grumped and caught her hand mid-way as Prerna picked another spoon of food and brought it to his mouth.
āI know that you are a grownup man and I shall treat you like a grown up, if you behave like one!!ā
Prerna countered and tried to free her hand from his grip, she struggled for a few moments before Rishabh himself let go of her hand when he started noticing her discomfort. When his grip loosened around her hand Prerna looked at him through her lashes. They shared an eye-lock for a minute before Rishabh broke it abruptly.
āErm.. I am sorry.. Aap.. aap plate mujhe de dijiye main khud kha lunga..ā
Rishabh tried to take the plate from Prernaās hand but she pulled it back
āNahi. Aap kafi weak hain filhal, aap theek se khade bhi nahi ho pa rahe the court mainā¦ā
āJanta hun. But there is a difference between eating food and standing. Mujhe plate dijiye main khud kha lungaā
Rishabh tried to take the plate once again but Prerna pulled it back and shook her head negatively.
āNahi. Main nahi deni wali. Aap ko koi problem hai Kya Mere haath se khana khane main?!ā
āMujhe problem nahi hai lekin..ā
āBas phir. Lekin vekin kuch nahi, aap ache se jante the ki aap court aane ke liye bohut weak hain phir bhi Maa ki madat karne ke liye aap aye. Unke favor main statement diya, uss din party main bhi aap ne Mr Mehta ke through Maa ki help karna chahi. Itna kuch kiya meri family ke liye. At least mujhe aap ke liye itna toh karne dijiyeā
Prerna looked at him expectantly and hoped that he would let her feed him. This was her first step towards redemption for all the wrong accusations that she had hurled on him. When Rishabh understood that she was just trying to apologise to him by means of her actions he couldnāt say no to her any more.
āFine aap khila sakti hain..ā
The smile that broke on Prernaās face after his words brought a smile on Rishabhās face as well. He didnāt know why but he couldnāt see her upset. His heart ached when he saw her troubled. This time when Prerna tried to feed him another spoon of khichdi, Rishabh didnāt fuss at all; he ate it obediently. The rest of the meal was silent as neither of them spoke another word. But just when Prerna was about to get up after making sure that Rishabh had eaten enough to take his medicines; Rishabh decided to break the silence between them
āPrerna, main janta tha ki main weak hun aur mujhe hospital se nahi niklna chahiye tha lekin agar main waqt pe nahi aata toh aapki Mom ko bina kisi galti ke saza milti. Jo main hote hue nahi dekh sakta tha that is why I came. She is your mother and that makes her a part of my family. Aur main meri family ke liye kuch bhi kar sakta hun, aur bina kisi expectations ke karta hun. Uske liye vo mujhe thank you kahe ya mujhse kisi bhi wajah se mafi mange yeh mujhe pasand nahi...ā
Prerna was touched by his words. Despite how her family had reacted to their marriage and the way her mother had disrespected Rishabh, he still considered her a part of his family. And he had come to help them without even caring about his own health. She gave him a genuine smile and handed him the dose of medicines before she walked out of the room.
āā-
By the time Prerna retired to her room after finishing her household chores and putting Kukki to sleep it was almost 10 at night. She was surprised to see the room empty and was slightly worried as well
āYeh Mr Bajaj kahan gaye?! Kahin study main kaam karne toh nahi chale gaye?!ā
She was about to walk out of the room already when she heard the bathroom door click and Rishabh step outside while wiping his face with a small towel. She sighed in relief, but her relief was short-lived as she noticed some blood around the bandage. He might have touched his wound while washing his face, she guessed. Prerna walked towards Rishabh and grabbed his hand. Before he said something or reacted to her sudden move, Prerna pulled the chair for him and made him sit down, she then started looking for something in the room.
āKya kar rahi hain aap?!ā
Rishabh asked but Prerna just ignored his words and continued her search. Rishabh was confused at her behaviour, he already had a slight headache and just wanted to sleep so he moved the chair and stood at his spot. By the sound of the chair being moved Prerna turned and frowned at him
āKhade kyun ho gaye?! Baith jaiye wapas..ā
Rishabh narrowed his eyes at her, did his wife just order him? Prerna continued her search and finally sighed as she found the medical kit in one the drawers next to the bed. She turned to see Rishabh still standing at his spot
āAap abhi bhi khade hain? Maine kaha na baith jaiye!!ā
āExcuse me, aap mujhe order de rahi hain?!ā
Rishabh asked Prerna, his voice a little more stern than he had expected it to be. Prerna blinked a few times and then shrugged
āShayad!ā
She replied and walked to him, placing her hands on his shoulder she made him sit on the chair once again and moved behind him. She grabbed a pair of scissors from the kit and was about to cut the bandage when Rishabh jerked and turned to face her
āWhat are you doing?ā
āChanging your bandage!ā
Prerna replied casually and was about to cut the bandage when Rishabh caught hold of her hand
āHave you done any course in nursing?ā
āNahi..ā
āThought soā¦ mujhe filhal bandage change karvane ki koi zaroorat nahi hai.ā
Rishabh argued and was about to get up from the chair but Prerna firmly placed her hand on his shoulder and didnāt let him stand.
āZaroorat hai. Aapki chot se khoon beh raha hai aur bandage bhi gili ho gai haiā¦ main ointment laga kar bandage change kar deti hun warna wound septic ho jayegaā
āAgar zaroorat hai toh doctor ko bula lijiye vo aakar change kar denge..ā
āMr Bajaj raat ke 10 baj rahe hain. Iss waqt kyun kisi doctor ko bulana aur vo bhi sirf bandage change karne ke liye. Main kar dungi na..ā
āLekin..ā
āKya Lekin, Mr Bajaj aap har baat pe itni zidd kyun karte hain. Pehle aap zidd kar ke hospital se chale aaye. Phir zidd kar rahe the ki khana mere saath se nahi kahenge. Abhi bandage change karne ja rahi hun tab bhi aap zidd kar rahe hain ki doctor se change karva lenge.. kya problem hai aapko mujhse, aap mujhe apna dhyaan rakhne kyun nahi de rahe?!ā
Prerna almost banged her hand on the table when she kept the scissors there, she was on the verge of tears now. She was hurt that Rishabh was not letting her take care of him. Rishabh did not expect her to react to like this. It was not like he didnāt want to let her take care of him. In fact he enjoyed this new attention that he was getting from his wife, the truth was that he didnāt want to get used to it because he didnāt know how long it would last.
āPrerna..ā
He heard her sniff and turn to the other side to wipe her tears. Rishabh got up from his spot and went in front of her. He was hesitant to touch her but he had to make her look at him as he spoke. After a beat he lifted his hand and cupped her face so that she could look in his eyes
āPrerna please donāt cry.. aap mera dhyan rakhe Iss main mujhe koi problem nahi hai. Main bas aapko trouble nahi karna chahta. Kal se pehle hi bohut kuch ho chuka hai jiske wajah se I am sure ki aapko bhi kafi stress hua hoga. I didnāt want you to take extra burden by taking care of meā
Rishabh hope that Prerna would understand his point of view and change her mind about taking care of him but he didnāt realise that his words had just hurt her more until fresh tears rolled Prernaās eyes.
āMr Bajaj aaj aap ne hi kaha tha ki jab baat family ki hoti toh expectations nahi hoti. Aap jo karte hain haq se karte hain. Toh kya main aap ki family ka hisa nahi hun?ā
Her words were confusing Rishabh, he couldnāt understand what she was trying to say and why was she saying all this
āAisa nahi hai Prerna.. you are my wife, obviously you are a part of my family..ā
āSo do you think that only you have the right to do something for your family? Agar aap apni family ki care karte hain toh hume bhi utna hi haq banta hai apki care karne ka. Aap ko aisa kyun lagta hai ki mere liye aap ka dhyan rakhna ek burden hai?!ā
āPrerna..ā
Rishabh tried to speak but Prerna shook her head negatively and continued
āMr Bajaj main janti hun ke humare beech vo understanding nahi ban pai hai jo husband and wife ke beech hoti hai, aur shayad isi wajah se hamara rishta aaj bhi vaisa nahi hai. But uska reason hai ki itne waqt main aapne kabhi mujhe mauka hi nahi diya ki main aapko samajh paun. Aap ne sabke samne ek image bana kar rakhi hai ki aap ko emotions ki kadar nahi hai. Toh main kaise doubt nahi karti ki aap ne Maa ko neecha dikhane ke liye kaam pe nahi rakha hai? Maasi tak darr gai thi ki aap ke accident ke baad hosh main aati hi aap Maa ko kadi se kadi saza dilvayenge. Lekin court main aake apne sab ke samne Maa ko innocent prove kar diya. Aur jab main genuinely aap ka khayal rakhne ki koshish kar rahi hun. Iss rishte ko apnane ki koshish kar rahi toh aap usse burden keh kar mujhse yeh mauka bhi cheen rahe hain!ā
Rishabh was speechless after listening to Prernaās words. It felt like she was complaining to him, rather than just sharing what was there in her heart. He had no clue that she was so affected by the recent happenings. It was true that he was trying to maintain his image of being an emotionless person in front of her as well. Because he was too scared to let her see the real him, he worried that she could hurt him if he became soft in front of her. But he had no clue that she was affected so much. He could see her frame shake as she continued to sob, in the moment, all he wanted to do was embrace her and ask for forgiveness for having hurt her unknowingly and before he could give it a second thought Rishabh wrapped his arms around Prerna and let her cry against him.
A few minutes later when Prerna felt a little better she tried to move back. Rishabh loosened his grip from around her but didnāt let go of her completely, unwrapping his one arm from her waist Rishabh wiped the remaining tears from her face
āPrerna.. I have been a very reserved person in my life, main kisi ko bhi itni aasani se aap ne aap ko nahi jane deta because jab log aap ko aache se jante hain toh aksar aap ko hurt kar dete hain. And I didnāt want to give anyone that chance that they could hurt me, especially after all the hardships that I have already faced in my life so far. But I am really sorry ki Maine anjane main aapko itna hurt kar diyaā
Prerna knew that Rishabhās apology was genuine because she could see that genuineness being reflected in his eyes. She always believed that a person's past shapes their present and that was the case with her husband as well. She didnāt know what must have happened to him that changed him into a ruthless man but she could gauge that it must have been something terrible enough to make him act like this. She rested her head against his chest once again and wrapped her arms around his waist tightly, trying to give him a comforting hug
āItās okay. Maine aapko maaf kar diya..ā
Rishabh was pleasantly surprised that she had accepted his apology so quickly and so easily. Prerna pulled back once again and stepped out of his embrace.
āLekin abh aap ko mujhse promise karna hoga ki aap mujhe ek mauka denge ki main aapko jaan sakunā
She stretched her hand and opened her plam for him to place his hand on it and seal their promise. Rishabh smiled at her as he clasped her hand
āPromiseā
Prerna flashed him a genuine smile before she tugged his hand and made him sit on the chair once again. She picked the scissors and was about to cut the bandage when Rishabh cleared his throat before turning to face her. He looked at nervously and spoke in a timid voice
āErm Prerna..ā
āHaan..ā
āAbh aap mujhse naraz nahi hai na?!ā
āNahi. Kyun?ā
āPakka?!ā
āHaan pakka. Par aap aise kyu puch rahe hain?!ā
āBas aise. Mujhe laga ki aap gusse main bandage ke ke saath saath mere baal bhi na cut kar deā¦ā
Prernaās mouth fell agape at Rishabhās words, he quickly continued
āI mean gusse main aksar insaan se galti ho jati hai toh mujhe laga ki kahin aap bhi galti kar baithe toh.. phir main toh naraz bhi nahi ho sakta. After all aap ka irada toh bas meri madat karne ka tha!ā
It took Prerna a few seconds to realise that her husband was toying with her. It was when she saw him struggle to hide his smirk at her reactions that she realised that he was just pulling her leg. She placed her hands on either side of his head and made him turn around.
āIss baar toh nahi, lekin agar aise dubara se mazak kiya toh zaroor aap ke baal bhi cut kar dungi bandage ke saath saath..ā
Prerna cut the bandage and neatly unfolded it, she came in front of Rishabh and started applying some Dettol to the wound to clean the blood around it, she blew some air after every dab to bring Rishabh some relief from the burning sensation and quickly applied some ointment on it. Rishabh couldnāt tear his eyes from her face, he looked at her as she worked with concentration. Her concern for him was also visible on her face. He was still trying to absorb her words about genuinely giving this relationship a chance, suddenly he had hopes that they could workout everything and have a proper relationship. Prerna placed a piece of cotton on the wound and secured it with a bandage.
āSee. All done aur aapke baal bhi bilkul sahi salamat hai!!ā
Prerna passed him a sarcastic smile making him chuckle at her kiddishness. As she got busy in cleaning the mess, Rishabh walked to the bed to pick his pillow and blanket before he retired on the couch for the night.
āAbh kya kar rahe hain aap?!ā
Rishabh rolled his eyes as Prerna scolded him for the umpteenth time in the day.
āMain sone ja raha hunā
āAap aaj se couch pe nahi soyenge..ā
āPar..ā
āPar var kuch nahi, maine bol diya na bas.. Abh koi nai zidd mat kijiyega..ā
She walked towards Rishabh angrily and snatched the pillow and blanket from him. She grabbed his hand and forcefully made him lie on the bed, quickly she walked to the other side of the bed and slipped into the covers next to him
āAaj pura din aap mujhe keh rahi thi ki main ziddi hun. Lekin aap bhi mujh se kuch kam ziddi nahi hain Mrs Bajaj. Apni har baat manvaie hai aapne aaj mujhseā
Rishabh turned so that he was now facing Prerna and she did the same. She smirked at him and chuckled before replying
āObviously, main aap ki wife Hun. Kuch toh similarities hona chahiye na hum dono main..ā
Prernaās voice was a little drowsy and Rishabh understood that she was tired. He didnāt respond to her words and just kept adorning her, within less than two minutes he heard her soft snores. Rishabh couldnāt believe how just one incident had changed his dynamic with the entire Sharma family, including his wife!
Kabhi kabhi kuch hadse isiliye hote hain taki hum yeh jaan sake ki koi humare dil ke kitna kareeb hai aur hamari zindagi main uss shaqs ki ehmiyat kya haiā¦
