The man signs " Sumit Wadhwa "...
Then a lady signs " Kumkum Wadhwa "...
They handover the paper back to the former lady.
The mid-aged lady : You are divorced now.
The couple luk at each other... with an expressionless face, the mid-aged lady continues,
Lady : Par aap logon ko is divorce ke confirmation ke liye ek saal baad fir se kuch papers sign karne honge. Zaruri hota hai.
Sumit Wadhwa : Ek saal baad?... Main kuch samjha nahi...??
Lady : Kuch log divorce lene ke baad dobara ek hona chahte hain to yeh ek saal ka waqt diya jaata hai.. agar kal ko aap log bhi...
Kumkum Wadhwa : Hum ek saal baad aake sign kar denge. :|:
Lady luks at her trying to read the blank face.
Sumit Wadhwa : Jee .
Lady : Theek hai.
The couple gets up and leaves.
A girl enters,
Girl : Ma'am aapne inse yeh kyun kaha ki yeh ek sal baad ki formality poori karna zaruri hai, jabki wo papers sign kiye bina bhi divorce to maana hi jaata hai.
Lady : Jaanti hun... pata nahi maine aisa kyun kaha?.. Shaayad main unhe ek mauka dena chahti thi?.. Pata nhi kyun?... Pata nahin kyun main nahi chahti ki yeh dono alag ho... :
She sighs and starts doing her work.
**********************************************************************************
The couple comes out and starts walking down the stairs, without even glancing each other, quietly, with blank faces.
Then at end stairs Sumit moves a bit ahead near his car and starts opening the door, then he hears a voice, he turns...
"Auto"...
He sees that Kumkum, his wife, sits in the auto and it goes away.
He, too, quietly sits in his car droves off...
"Sumit kya kar rahe ho?... kahan le jaa rahe ho?..."
Sumit was holding Kumkum from back, who was wearing a orange suit, and was blindfolded...
Sumit : Sshhhh kitna bolti ho chup chaap chalti raho...
Kumkum : arey magar batao to sahi...
Sumit : ek second chup raho na baba... achcha ab yahin rukna... hilna nahi...
Kumkum stands quietly.. till sometime she doesn't move... but she hears no voice n no response...
Kumkum :Sumit... Sumit tum ho naa...
She tries opening the blindfold... when someone holds her hand...
Sumit : Ruko naa...
Kumkum : Sumit kya ho raha hai... kuch bataoge bhi?...kahan gaye the?
Sumit : okk kholo apni aankhen...
She removes the blindfold.. and she sees... somethings kept on the bed...
She goes near the bed.. and starts picking all those things and luks at them keenly...
It was their wedding card n a bridal dress i.e. red joda...
Sumit comes n sits near her...
Sumit : I know bohut heavy work nahi hai... par isse zyaada mehnga main le nahi paaya.. aur.. ladki ke liye joda ladke walon ki taraf se jaata hai naa.. aur main to akela hi hun to...
Kumkum holds his hand ,
Kumkum : Thanku... Tum nahi jaante yeh mere liye kya ehmiyat rakhta hai... koi kuch bhi khareed sakta hai par yeh ehsaas nahi..
She sees the wedding card and smiles...
Kumkum : Sumit mujhe sirf tumhara saath chahiye... zindagi bhar ke liye...
Sumit (smiles and moves towards her, places his hands on her cheeks) : Wo to hai hi tumhara .. hamesha se hi...
"Wo to hai hi tumhara.. hamesha se hi..."
Kumkum hears the door opening and she keeps the wedding dress in her hand inside the suitcase.
Sumit comes in... he sees her packing her things..
Sumit : Itni jaldi nahi hai... tum chaho to yahan ruk sakti ho..
Kumkum looks at him.. Sumit's face was blank..
Sumit: ... jab tak ghar ka intezaam nahi hota..
Kumkum : Thanks... I'll manage..
She continues packing...
Sumit goes out... and sits on the couch... his mobile rings...he picks up the call...
Sumit : Hii Raj... Hmm am fine yaar.... tu kabse nahi mila... kahan hai kaisa hai?... Kya??? (he gets up excited) tu yahan aa raha hai...
Kumkum comes and stands there, keeps the keys of the house...
Sumit looks at her... now after the divorce for the first time they look at each other... eye-to-eye... for 2 minutes... but none of them cries, or is hurt... instead there are some faded questions n a lost kind of feeling...in their eyes.
Sumit (to his friend) : I'll talk to you later...
Kumkum looks down and picks up her bag n starts moving...
Sumit : Kahin chod dun tumhe?
Kumkum stops but does not turn, simply shakes her head meaning "no".
She goes near the door and opens it... just one side... she stops for sometime.. she didn't know why?.. then she opened the other side and we see Sumit standing behind...
She moves out and takes a few steps and again stops..
She hears voices...
"Sumit... Sumit... main gir jaongi ... ohho.... Sumit"...
Kumkum was laughing also as Sumit was carrying her, they were in the wedding get up... a newly married couple...
Sumit : Bas aa gaya... hunhhh...
He puts her down... she luked beautiful as a bride...
Sumit : Yeh raha hamara ghar...
Kumkum sees that on the door it was written "Kumkum And Sumit Wadhwa."
Kumkum smiles on seeing this... then Sumit opens the door... there was decoration inside... and all the kalash of rice and thali of "lal rang" was prepared already.
Kumkum : Sumit... yeh sab kisne kiya?
Sumit : Of course maine...
Kumkum (happily) : Sach...
Sumit : Ermm.. lemme complete... Of course maine.. To nahi kiya... yahan is doosre flat mein ek aunty rehti hain, unhone... abhi wo hain nahi... jab aayengi to mila dunga..
Kumkum : hmm..Sumit: Ohho ab intezaar kis baat ka?... Chalo andar.
She does everything and they enter...
The door closes...
Kumkum comes out of the past memories... she turns and sees that the door was closed...
On the door it was still written "Kumkum And Sumit Wadhwa."
