Mishal Raheja as Major Dutta Patil

Painful Rapture ~Chapter 71

"where thou art,that is home"Dickinson

Of the two days left in UK, Dutta was occupied with thoughts about home. Constant visitations from her in his mind ,heart and soul ,wrenched him dry ,it seemd he was being rendered arid as a person, in need of thrist- quencher. Bradley as usual suggested a walk down to the local, as a time killer.Seeing Dutta was morose he quipped, "now don't look so down in the dumps, surely you're not going to say that you'll miss the heavy downpours and the banshee wailing gales of GB! now are you Dutta? so cheer up you are nearly home".Dutta turned to him, "not really Bradley, I am still here aren't I in person, alive and kicking walking on British soil," !he paused to check his cynical remark about the host nation, and continued gravely, "it is worrying about the rains and the floods Bradley, so much disruption to the normalcy of life , my heart goes out to people effected by this natural calamity, yet you can say that every good thing brings the down side too, see it's your rivers that are a bonus to have, but a nightmare to contain when they swell and overflow due to continuous downpours", he commented objectively, and after a moment continued ,subjectively,"but have to say Bradley my palms itch to serve, as back home in a similar state of emergency Iam called out hence given the chance to serve the people other than on the borders.. here my hands are tied, infact I feel a bit inadequate.."he confessed.Bradley placed his hand on Dutta's shoulder "you Dutta you are a good man and above all a born soldier, I shall miss you mate, come let's get some draught down you to warm you up also its a music night at the local.." he informed. It was odd thought Dutta where ever he looked he saw pregnant women , displaying their proud evidence for all to see, this one now was being escorted by her husband /boy friend into the pub.Dutta lowered his eyes, and by now Bradley was familiar that whenever Dutta lowered his eyes it was either a genuine mark of respect or a sign of some hidden embarrassing thought, here it seemed the latter ,he smiled. Just as they were about to push open the pub swivel door,the clip clip of metal high heels heralded the proud arrival of the attractive blonde blue eyed Forces bullet Jane dressed in black leather skinny leggings and a black leather gilet, over a skinny body hugging faux leather top. She brushed past Dutta and embarrassed he had no choice put to hold the door open for her. Her French perfume wafted past his nostrils as did her stray vagrant straightened blonde wisps of hair brushed on the tip of his nose.. he twitched his jaw and raised his eyebrow at Bradley who stood at the other side of the door, "bloody equal opportunities Bradley, ummh down right rudeness for me!" Dutta griped, as he shook his head distastefully ,narrowed his eyes and proceeded into the pub accompanied by Bradley. They ordered and sipped their drinks at the bar, their backs to the rest of the people. Jane stuck her pronounced back side seductively .She made a special effort with her garments ,her out look , it was now or never , she was geared to allure Dutta into her trap tonite. She smiled wickedly at her unholy ,unprofessional thoughts but his constant aloof and frigid attitude was a challenge for her, which she tried to resist but to no avail. It's not that she hadn't tried to resist his imposing disposition, but all her forbearance left her vanquished and she was desperate to let him know what she felt for him.She turned to face him, her arms folded on the bar service, her bottom pressed against the bar, "tell me you guys are you packed and all, I hate packing, wish I had a magic wand which could do it all for me!" ,she sipped the red wine and continued in a husky voice ,"I guess the army failed to organize me," she added, and Dutta looked into the distance and was reminded of his sister Roops who as far as he could recall was an untidy little girl, but he smiled at his off guard thought and firmed his face, with," ummh sort of packed, but with you being disorganized I would say Major get your house in order, disarray makes it difficult to keep things in perspective", said Dutta spitefully, as he was up to his neck of her ongoing passes at him since the day he landed.The music played and it was an admixture of this and that, old and new, and he sipped his drink ,cranked his neck and looked across to the expectant mother doing a controlled jive on the floor with her man. With disapproval, he caught sight of the woman consuming alcohol too honestly no regard with the baby she's carrying,he mused. Dutta ran his finger over his beer glass, ab aise halaat main ise naache ki kiya zaroorat hai he thought disdainfully. Bradley checked his foreign colleague's looks and commented, pensively, "now you wondering how far gone she is Dutta?, I can tell you she's more then four and less then seven months! He slapped Dutta on his arm,"I should know mate have kids myself remember, although Dutta have to say there's no hard and fast rule, some women show easily while others might not till the final term" he educated Dutta. Dutta brushed his talk with his palm," no Bradley I do not yet again want another tutorial in expectant women , though its remarkable how since I found out ,I have come across one such a woman every day way, seems it's like some sort of breeding season" he admitted half amused. Bradley too laughed "well call it providence Dutta , now you know it all ,though have to say from the stunned look on your face ,you do realize that your wife may look anything but pregnant, so you " and he stopped short as Dutta gave him sight of his palm, and changed his tone,"erhh what I meant was she'll look exactly the same as you left her.."completed Bradley. Dutta nodded and lowered his head, "that has yet to be seen, besides ,to tell you truthfully Bradley I wouldn't know what to look for not while the whole family is about, one can't really it's sort of awkward, not just for the husband but for the wife as well.. "he explained, but didn't expect Bradley to understand ,who commented,"actually this awkwardness that you refer to Dutta in my opinion is very novel and distinct as it makes the proud parents stand out even more , and people can see that privacy needs be granted to a husband and wife, so they can be together and talk and relax in each other's company.The music played as more couples moved to the dance floor to Donna Summer's 70's classic song "love to love you baby.." before he knew it Jane got hold of his arm and he glared at her fingers in a clasp on his brawny arm ,"ummh what are you doing Major?he snorted, and Jane felt his stubble with her palm, "oh come on Dutta be a man , I am asking you to dance with me, whats your problem? she challenged him, he twisted his bottom on the bar stone," your'e pis..erhh drunk Major, let go of my arm , I don't dance ! I can't dance!.. he said curtly, that was it he had put his foot in it.. Jane crept her arms on his broad chest "oooh come on Dutta, let Jane teach you, you'll not regret it I promise"...and she pulled him off the stool and Bradley took his whiskey glass from his hand and watched her literally drag Dutta to the dance floor.The song was a slow seductive number and the lights were dimmed as well.She stood him before her ,and he held his arms clumsily on his sides ,she grabbed his hands and placed them on her waist, and he looked down into her blue eyes and pulled back his arms back to his sides, "stop this cheap behaviour Major, I am not game, dance or not! " he roared , and he was about to turn when Jane locked her arms around his neck and moved her face next to her face, "Dutta why do you push me away, am I that revolting?" she moaned as she gradually pressed her voluptuous body against his tall hard frame. He stared blankly into her eyes and his hands travelled up to her arms that restrained his neck and his palms cruelly closed on her wrists and with a rough yank he lowered her arms and released his neck ,cranked it to one side and menancingly warned,"this man is not for taking Major Ashworth , and yes you are right you can be revolting , you even seem to forget your profession , not to mention , that you openly seduce a male who is obviously not interested in your advances ,now why on earth this cannot be called sexual assault bloody beats me!" and he stormed off to the bar, where Bradley waited for him, with a pint of beer,"good you told her Dutta ,she was asking for it our Randy Jane!", guffawed Bradley. Dutta looked at her lone figure on the dance floor and felt slightly guilt ridden at his abruptness, he was in his senses he knew what she wanted and he was repulsed at the idea. It was also this issue that his might was tampered with, how dare she tempt him like he was a young twenty plus year old.. ready to jump into bed with her, no it was not going to happen ,it never can , he thought , he was not prepared to defile himself ,he never did in his hay days and he will not do it now.. when he is already committed to one woman in his life! the only woman first and last. Jane came towards her colleague officers and Dutta stood up in politeness and offered her his bar stool, "can I buy you a drink Major? ummh like a peace offering" ,she nodded still a bit shaken. He ordered then suggested ,"look shall we sit down at a that table for three,"and asked for Walkers ready salted crisps and KP ready salted peanuts.He grabbed the packets ,his beer glass and paused as he let Jane go first ,and pulled her chair for her to be seated. Dutta rested his elbows on the solid mahogany table and looked at the two British officers, "look I wanted to say thank you to both of you for looking out for me during this trip I have to say it's been a memorable experience, learnt a lot, saw a lot and am taking home with me the good will of the British people", he looked at Jane,"and you Major Ashworth are cordially invited to India for a holiday, your board and lodgings are free at my residence at Patil Nivas my home, my whole family would love to meet you, so just phone me ,Bradley has my number and I'll arrange everything.." Jane still subdued, smiled and replied," sure Dutta that would be lovely , if I can make the time ,definitely will let you know thanks",Dutta looked at her rather earnestly,"ummh Jane you are a great officer , with a great future ahead of you ,ummh I am sure you'll find your.."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Naku rolled over to her side her alarm rang, 7am it as time to get up for work ,she hugged her cuddly lion king to her bosom and in memorable ecstasy recalled her lion's loose talk with her over the phone, and she felt her tummy and giggled "tera babba bahut he naughty hai, unhe thek karna pare hoga .. hummh".She stopped her thought in her tracks.. no way she wants him changed she smiled as her moved her pretty little head side to side on her pillow , and suddenly she burst into tears, "SSSaaab ah jao ab.. Naku mar jaye ge ap ke bina... she stopped suddenly as she felt a funny pinch within her tummy, like a distant cramp, something she ate hs upset her tummy and she straightened her legs forthwith under her thin duvetand closed her eyes to yet again dream about him. The alarm sounded the second time and with some difficulty she lowered her legs and stood up on her feet and made her way to the bathroom.Once showered, she dressed , in her orange and red sari and came down and received AS's blessings and had a glass of juice. As she sipped, she was reminded of him and forlornly her green doe eyes gazed at his empty chair .AS looked at her face and felt her head ," bas ati he hoga Dutta Naku, tu thek hai na,?she asked concerned , Naku felt a tweak in her tummy again may be it was indigestion and she burped a little,"haan thek hoon ,AS", and she checked her watch and stood up, "AS aaj clinic hai subahm tu kuch late ho jaon ge ghar ata hoi , Baji ko bol doon ge," she informed and AS smiled at her beloved Dutta's wife and chanted," Jagdammbe" as she watched Naku head towrds Baji, who stood ready to take her brief case and shoulder bag as she boarded the jeep. She looked at Baji,"pata hai Baji, aj meri Saab se baat phone pe nahni hoi ,dil ajeeb sa hai, sab thek ho un ke saath?"she shared. Baji looked at her ."aree Naku Bhao ko kiya hona hai UK beitha hoya hai , must be having a whale of a time, I bet", he consoled her", but Naku turned to him,"it's obvious Baji ke tu news nehi dekhta don't you know that UK has been hit by bad weather, main bahut preashaan hoon Saab ke liye" she moaned and he placed his palm on her arm,"aree Naku, koi toofan paida hi nehi hoya abhi tak ju Bhao ka ek bal bhi banka kar sake ,so stop fretting about him ,you just worry about yourself and my nephew or niece got it! , apne bhai ka kehna man ab tu!" he admonished. She arrived at her destination and Baji helped her down although she could manage on her own but because of her condition every one fussed about , she turned and shouted,"aj der se kam finish ho ga Baji ,I'll ring you when!... Baji nodded and watched her proceed into the Rehab centre and drove off, on a high, only a few days left and his bosom friend will be with him ,Baji's heart jumped at the very notion.He craved for his Bhao's company, day in and day out the worldly business ticked along ,he too was preoccupied in his internal and external chores but Dutta's vacuum was still unfulfilled..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Naku carried on with her job, the place was teeming with patients ,all the consultation rooms were occupied with patients and loads more sat exhausted and miserable outside on the metal benches waiting to be seen.Naku in her PT overall walked past and felt a twinge in her belly , but stopped over at the water dispenser and poured herself a glass of cold water and moistened her parched mouth. Her presence amongst the patients prompted them to get up from their seats and they surrounded her with pleas to be seen.She tried her best to assurance them and according to Rehab policy asked them to wait uncomplainingly. She moved away and carried on her rounds down the corridor of waiting patents when suddenly she was confronted by a huge burly man who shouted in her face "main kab se edherich beitha hai mujhe bukhaar hai aur tum kabhi edherech ate hai kabhi edhurech jate!he shouted and pointed his fat finger in her face and the nearby nurses on spotting and hearing the commotion called for the security guards .but the man who reeked of tharra, continued to progress towards her and she lunged back against the bench and then against the water dipenser and lost her balance only to be caught by one of the nurses. She was made to sit down immediately and as if by reflex action she wrapped her arms around her abdomen. She was asked to take deep breathes but her back seemed bent backwards and soon after she felt a spasm that rose from her back to the front of belly,the nurse rushed and called one of the doctors who decided not to exam Naku but rang for an ambulance.The man was restrained by security guards and the police arrived and booked him for abusive and drunk disorderly behaviour towards staff and attempt of physical assault towards an employee of the Rehab centre.

Naku was put in a wheel chair and wheeled out towards the ambulance and then made comfortable ,with blankets, her BP pressure, and pulse were checked and she was assured by the lady paramedic, who smiled at her with recognition,"ap Nakusha Dutta Patil hain na? hum janta hai ap ko , Dutta Bhao tu is jagah ke undata hai ,ap chinta maat karoon vahini , abhi Military hospital le ja rehe hain , Bapaa sab thek karien ga,.."Naku tried not to panic but her back felt a stabbing hurt which travelled to the front of her loer abdomen."Saaab"!, she moaned as she felt her abdomen. She kept her presence of mind and spoke to the paramedic ,"please inform my family , inform my brother Baji , number should be in my mobile, please tell him the need fulland above all tell him Iam fine"... she said and closed her eyes as a tear escaped her eye and trailed down her temple into her ear. The paramedic knew Baji Rao Patil too... Baji stopped what he was doing told Roops who clung to him and cried and both hugged and cried for a split second and Baji pushed her away and said he has to tell the family and they should reach the hospital ASAP. Roops couldn't stop him. He gathered his family ,and held AS' hand and looked up into her anxious eyes,"AS ap ke zaroorat an parhe hai, ap ke himmat ke , woh kiya hai AS, Naku ke saath kisi meraz jis ne sharib pee hoi the kuch aisa kiya hai ke use hospital le jaya ja reha hai, .."before he could finish she began to feel dizzy and fell back on her arm chair doubled in anguished tears "hai Bappa meri beti thek ho .."she sobbed as she sipped water from the glass of water that Kala offered her. Baji embraced her knees," AS , ap chinta maat lein Bappa sab thek he kare ga ,ap hospital phoocho,"he said flustered himself as he shouted to Roops "go pack her tooth brush etc tissues to take to the hospital, Kala intervened ,"Baji woh tu ho jaye ga , tu most important job kar inform Bhao, or do you want me to do it," Baji , heeded "haan Tai I'll ring him straightaway!" he said, and AS wept,"Baji tareka se batien use , pardes mein hai mera Dutta , ekala hai .."she cried... and the family loaded in cars and left for the Casualty services in the local Military hospital.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dutta looked at Jane and continued , "I am sure you'll meet Mr. Right soon , I sincerely hope when you find him you will be happy. You see in my country you marry once and it's for the next seven lives i.e forever such is my bond with my wife Nakusha whom Bradley here has met , it's like what you say guys say here that matches are made in heaven!, so was mine made ,the divine hand has joined us ...suddenly his phone rang ,and his mouth curved in a smile ," Baji , what the hell does he want now it's too early it's not even mid afternoon in UK,"he moaned good naturedly ,"haan Baji bak!kya takleef hoi hai thujhe? Bol! I have company don't want to sound rude" he jested, his face fell when Baji didn't respond likewise,"oyeee nautanki bol sab thek hai! AS thek hai!" he said in a near panic stricken voice.Baji in a supressed voice replied," haan Bhao AS thek hain woh Naku.."Dutta jumped up to his feet,"what the bloody hell,? how ? when ?why? I'll kill that bas###d! he bellowed , and she how is she? Baji bol ! before I smash this pub f# I'll kill him!" he swore ,Bradley ,took the phone from Dutta as he collapsed on his chair and held scarlet face in his hands, and he moaned near to tears Naku! Naku! Naku!..Jane shot up and headed for the bar and ordered a whiskey for Dutta. She herself shook as she looked across to Dutta ,while Bradley spoke to Baji, If only she could put her arms around his broad shoulders, but he would bite them off for sure! she walked towards him and sat across him and placed his glass before him but he pushed it away. He folded his arms on the table and emotionally drained, he rested his tearful face on them. Bradley shook his head and assured Baji,"look Baji it's a pity we spoke in such unpleasant circumstances but can you tell AS and the rest of the family, Dutta is not alone ,I am here for him and jolly well will do everything possible to get him on the next available flight to you, now you take care and oh give Nakusha my regards tell her to remain positive..."and Baji put the phone down and turned to Roops "haan bata diya use , Bradley hai uske saath ,pun Bhao us bewraadi ke jaan le le ga Roops, waise use se phele main loon ga us ke jaan! shouted Baji.

Dutta stood up Bradley ,"I am outaa here mate , a mans' got to do what a mans' got to do.. . get me the airport and the senoir staff I am checking out now! he bellowed, and he stormed out of the pub. Bradley caught up behind him and supported "look you get your gear together I'll report the matter to senior staff ,and book you on the next available flight".Dutta reeled around and looked at Bradleyand yelled "in exactly 45 minutes from now I want a cab booked for the air port , getting outta here , now! he babbled as he strode towards his room .

Back in his room as ordered, Bertie laid out his Indian army uniform , he dressed hurriedly double time. If only he could produce wings and fly across the oceans and the land and be with her, his heart cried out in unspoken torment main ah raha hoon Naku , bas you hang on there baaby my sweet love!, yet his hands and eyes mechanically carried out all the last minute jobs of scanning his packing his travel documents. Till he finally slanted his beret on his head , collected his mobile and his hand baggage. Bertie stood before him in his room and with clicked heels saluted ,and Dutta smiled with an expression nothing short of gratitude and respect for the batman, shook his hand with Bertie and pressed two fifty pound notes in his batman's palm.Bertie red in the face showed immense hesitation ,but Dutta with raised palm , said in a clear guttral tone," keep it Bertie , get something for yourself from me for Christmas , and thanks very much for all your services, ummh that'll be all and be sure to lock up and hand the keys in" he instructed. Dutta give the room a final look and walked out tall and smart , yes he had a reasonable time here, but home is where the heart is..

He walked purposely towards the senior officers cabin and bade them farewells,with two cheques made out on behalf of his mother ,one for war widows ,and the other for flood relief services.The senior officer was most touched and flawed by Dutta's generous gesture and thanked him tremendously.This then was Dutta and his AS's magnanimity where the left hand didn't know what the right hand had given!. He made way to the entrance of the Manor where the cab waited for him ,and nearby stood Bradley and Jane.Bertie lugged his baggage in the boot of the cab, saluted and just stood aside dewy eyed.. Bradley moved up to Dutta ,"here mate you'll need this British Army camouflaged wind cheater jacket till you reach India ,consider it as a present. Dutta gave a small overcome smile and attempted to fumble some good bye phrases but Bradley just hugged him and whispered, "you take care, mate ,I'll say a prayer for her, she'll be fine don't you worry! and now you better get into the cab ,don't want you to miss your flight do you? and by the way ,the taxi fare has been paid for soo" and Bradley nearly choked as he stepped back to let Jane say her good byes . Dutta looked at her, and held his palm forward to shake her hand,which she did ,but embraced him anyway and gave him a kiss on his rosy stubble cheek, "good bye Dutta and good luck". Dutta pulled his lips to one side and bowed his head as he sank his bottom in the back seat of the cab. The door slammed and the taxi pulled off as Dutta waved to the three forlorn figures standing in the Manor... The journey back to Heathrow Airport was a precise repeat of what it was like five weeks ago when he travelled towards the Manor. The weather was still ,dull ,dreary and damp, but it was a lot colder, the outside temperature was 5 degrees as opposed to 12 degrees when he had arrived in London.

He jumped through all the hoops of departures procedures yet again. He was extremely fortunate that due to being an army officer in uniform, he was given priority on the immediate available flight. He sat preoccupied by her thoughts in the departure lounge. He was bored remarkably till he concluded that he would perhaps buy a few items from the duty free shop, in the departure lounge.His eye roved and finally settled on the Harrods shop, he went in and bought a teddy bear with a Harrod tartan bow round his neck and a red heart on its chest saying "I love London" hummh , ye Naku ke liye, and ye AS ke liye , a green and gold metal tea canister which said ,Harrods of Knights bridge and five key rings with London written on them for every one else in his family. He paid and walked out towards he duty free liquor store and for Baji he bought Drambuie finest Scottish whiskey.. and before he could do more he stopped himself and thought enough is enough! and walked away tall and smart in his uniform with the two duty free bags hanging from his palms.His narrow eyes scanned the display monitors every so often to check boarding times and gate numbers till it was finally announced his air craft was boarding. He boarded the plane and was airborne home bound.. he looked out of the plane window and saw aerial views of flooded land and he closed his eyes ,and said a prayer for all the people made homeless temporarily..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This time Naku was transported onto a hospital bed and wheeled straight into the casualty section.Her head and eyes shifted around the place which she knew well since her Saabs injury times.With a degree of fortune, she realized it was due to her husband she was brought to this military hospital ,which rang with a convinced sense of martial brass and an orderly formality which was evident in the uniformed soldiers on guard, the ward names and the uniformed female reception staff.The place also boasted of occasional army uniformed personnel going to and fro in the corridor through which she was wheeled up north to emergencies.The door was swung open and paramedics presented her reports , a cannula needle was poked on the vein on her hand and her heart was monitored. The doctor arrived and pulled the vinyl curtains round the cubicle where she was kept.He felt Naku's forehead ,"hello Mrs Patil tell me how are you feeling? hummh? he spoke kindly. Naku realized this was a male doctor but pushed the thought her mind what did it matter.. Naku felt her belly and uttered crying ,"my back hurts at the lower end and the pain is coming here in front" she indicated , followed by cries in shock.The doctor gently felt her lower abdomen with minimum pressure and then looked at the cardiac monitor and consoled her,"calm down Mrs.Patil, I can see that you are pregnant and here see you can see for yourself too the foetal heart beat .. so just relax" he assured her. Naku tried to sit up but was advised to lie still on the bed, but she felt the twinge in her belly again and shooting pain in her back. Tearfully she rubbed her green eyes with her fists and mumbled ,"woh doctor must tell you that since this morning have I felt a contraction like pain in my tummy," the doctor turned to her took on board the patients account, and instructed the nurse to organise an ultra sound straight away and also paged for the Gynaecologist without further delay. He turned to her and queried how long go was this Mrs.Patil, and how many have you had and t what intervals?",Naku a bit shaken by now , recalled and explained what she could...

With one arm around their mother's shoulders Baji and Roops escorted AS , Kala, Leela into the hospital ,and after hasty enquiries ended up in the waiting room outside the private room where Naku was moved to from the general ward and now kept. AS peeped in through the round deck window on the door and upon seeing Naku on the cardiac monitor she wept and Kala moved her to a chair,"AS, ap udher bathien jayean , main ja ke pata kerti hoon," Baji keenly with one hand running through his hair from the side , approved ,"ho Tai you go and find out, abhi mujhe tu ye log under nehi jana de ge , this is one time I wish I was a woman! tell her that we are all outside ..Kala came in and Naku's face lit up as Kala walked towards her and kissed her on the forehead and held her palm ,she could make out from puffiness under the eyesthat Naku had been crying.She approached both the doctor and the Gynaecologist, "well I am Kalavati ,Major Dutta Patil's older sister and Nakusha's sister in law so its ok to talk in front of me" she affirmed .The doctors looked towards Naku for consent which she granted with a nod. The gynaecologist explained that "the patient had also mentioned contractions apart from what befall her at her work place, and as such a scan has been arranged shortly and they would let the family know about the results very soon."Kala satisfied went out and explained only that a scan was being done to ensure that things were ok. While the scan was in progress inside the private room , the police arrived ,but before they could question the patient for FIR, an irate and hot headed Baji exploded,"dekho officer , ap apna kam karo , mujhe woh banda chaiya , tum ne pata lagana hai us salle ne kyon kiya ye?woh kaun hai? tum Rehab centre se poocho, aagar tum ne us ko sazza nehi dilwai tu main kudh us ko sazza de ga , salle ne fauji ke baiko pe haat choorah hai uska tu main band bajoan !pata haina tum ko wo Dutta Bhao ke biwi hai!"he yelled ,the Sargent went over to AS and touched her knees,"dekho AS ap Baji ko samjhao, ke humien apna kam kerne de, vahini se poochna zaroori hai ka kiya hoya tabhi tu karawai ho ge,"he pleaded and Baji folded his arm and pulled a face rolled his eyes ,as his fingers felt his lips nervously.

The doctor pooped her head out and Kala got up immediately ,but this time took her mother and Leela in as well and introduced them as well but the doctors were not too happy to have three visitors so Leela left and waited oustside.The doctors explained, "the situation that upon internal examination , there seems some indication that the foetus is fine , she has not lost the baby which if about 9/10 weeks old, but it may be a threatened miscarriage, which was further aggravated by the work incident, and as such every precaution should be taken that Nakusha is to be on complete bed rest, with no physical exertion what so ever. Hopefully with bed rest things would improve ,and I would like to see her in a week's time for another internal and a further scan to see how things are faring ,and if things are fine then life can be carried on as normal, however I must emphasize that if things get worse she has to get to the hospital a.s.a.p without delay, but I am hopeful she seems a determined young lady.. but for today we would like to keep her in hospital for observation "explained the doctor, and took Kala to one side ,"in the meanwhile just keep her happy , and tension free , it's important for her to have her loved ones around her , ummh I was also wondering if her husband has been notified?.Kala explained "he is flying back from UK as we speak".. Naku burst into tears at the mention of the word husband and she wept. AS went over to her bed side and sat on the edge and held her hands and kissed them ,"bas humari beti Bappa ka shukar hai ke tu aur baacha dono thek hain , bas Dutta ati he hoga chand khatoon mein, tu chinta maat kar, ".Naku sobbed "AS woh Saab gussa karien ga tu aopna khayal nehi rekh saketi", AS, looked at Kala for support,"Naku tu fikar maat kar hum haina na , Bhao kuch nehi bole ga " she assured. the doctor looked up as the door opened and in walked he policeman and Baji , and Kala and AS left the room to wait outside.The Sargent asked questions about the incident. Naku explained that she was doing her rounds , like everybody elsehis drunk man too was asked to wait for his turn to be seen, but he hurled abuse at her and approached her in a threatening manner and as she backed off,she hit her heel against the metal bench and lost her balance and nearly toppled over the water dispenser where a following by nurse held her from falling back wards in the corridor", she also confirmed that the man smelt heavily of alcohol .."and she cried as Baji tightened his fists and his face glowed with rage. The doctor turned towards the police and asked Baji to step outside, and then continued," and due to the strain on her back and judder to her abdomen the patient who is between nine to ten weeks pregnant is suffering with a threatened miscarriage, please note this down", she said rather vexed.

The police officer left and the doctor left and addressed the family, "it's ok she's in good hands now so I suggest you go home and get some rest and visit her tomorrow any time after 9am. ..and oh she's asked for you Baji, so don't stay with her for too long she's still traumatized, what with the incident and the news about her pregnancy as well so , I'eve ordered she be given a mild sedative to prompt some rest and shut eye.. and with that Baji instructed Roops to take everyone home with Kaley and he went in to speak to Naku..

She cried, as soon as he came in and Baji stood at the foot of her bed, his eyes cloudy too and his hand briefly perched on the top left side of his head.He for once was utterly tongue tied, what is one supposed to say in such contexts, he just stared at her then finally composed him self and they both began "woh main ne kehna.."! and both laughed suddenly and he wagged his finger at her "aree Naku thujhe doctors ne itne zoor se hasna se mana kiya hai is liye only eshmile plzz", he cackled. "ok Baji main nehi hasa ge but let's get serious , look I saw your body language when I was answering questions in FIR notes, Baji please I beg you koi aise harkat maat karna jis se harma khundan kanam badnam ho ga, let the police deal with it , Baji promise me that you will not instigate Saab in this matter, please , if you take matters in your own hands you know Saab too will disapprove your meddling with police procedures , besides thujhe pata hai I am not well, tu I want you beside me 24/7, not involved on the other side of the law who's job it is to look for them ! you look after me". she instructed him clearly,but he guffawed "thujhe look after karna wali ah raha hai Naku hawa ke.. ummh gadhe pe sawar! doubled up Baji and Naku shouted "Baji! maat bol aise mera Saab ko"and he reeled round "wah Naku itne haftoon se main teri dekh bhal kar reha hoon! aur tu Saab Saab kar rehe hai" he protested and suddenly the nurse came into the room, "now Sir ap ko jana hoga ab ,visting hours khatam ho gaye hain, besides patient ko mild sedative dena hai," said the nurse curtly. Naku looked at Baji and in a small voice said "Baji ,main theekh hoon besides go and find out, Saab kab phoonch rehe hain?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Naku stirred despite the mild sedative she was given.She pushed her legs underneath the hospital over covers. She repeated in her mind she has to maintain calm but tears streamed out of her eyes and she vigorously rubbed her green eyes ,and chided herself for being so lax! if she felt a pinch within her belly this morning she should have taken it seriously and she rolled on her side and cried in her pillow OOOH Saab maine jaan ke nehin kiya , haan main manti ho main ne laparwai ke but Saab please don't hate me Saab!".She felt a hand on her shoulder and a voice silenced her, "Nakusha ap theek hain ? shall I get you a sandwich if you want?".As soon as she heard the word sandwich, she burst into tears again and the poor nurse stood totally baffled at her reaction.But Naku turned her head slowly towards the nurse apologetically with a "yes please aur ek cup chai bhi ..". while she waited she gathered her legs up to her belly in foetal posture and once again his reaction to the turn of events petrified her ,and she shook slightly , and remained strangely confused as his face came before her eyes , why was she so terrified of him , she had conjured up an image of him that he was not. He was her lion man , her husband the only man who loved her and the only male she fancied who melted her into a thousand tiny colorful prisms..surely she needed a good wack from him for degrading him so , what was wrong with her? her mind was playing psychotic games with her riddling her with senseless thoughts ,he loves me, ohhh Saab just take me in your arms and kiss it all better... she wept silently ,mighty disturbed. The nurse arrived and eased Naku as her foot pressed the lever under her bed to sit her up propped against two fluffy up pillows. She looked at the sandwiches with tearful eyes ,"Saab jaldi ghar wapis aao ,Naku apne haaton se sandwiches bana ke de ge ap ko", she muttered but choked as she thought how soon would she be able to do that , she sniffed and decided she would feed herself so she can swiftly be well enough to serve him and she nimbly ate her food..

The night nurse came in and asked Naku if she needed another sedative but Naku declined, "nehin main shant hoon ab ,aur neend bhi aye hai mujhe bas paani rekh dein mera pas thank you".The nurse tucked her in bed, and dimmed the light in the room. Naku laid flat on her back which still smarted.Within her mind she concentrated to sense any traces of pain in her lower abdomen..she had to think positive, mind over matter she reflected. So there in the dark in the silence of her room she gradually placed both her warm palms flat on her tummy and cried,"Bappa ,mera baacha aur meri rakhsha kerna, shakti dena Deva"she snuffled and then the peace within her over took her and she drifted to dreamland her Saab's Ganpati pendant held in her soft palm...

Dutta stretched his long muscular legs as he heard the announcement that they were about to land at Mumbai Airport and the time was around 8am.He looked out of the plane window as the plane silently descended and the clear day and sunshine kissed the stubble face of the son of the soil who at last returned home.His eyes welled up and he could without landing smell the divine aroma of his mother earth.. yes he was back to his land .Naku , he cried out and dialled her mobile number when allowed to do so in the aircraft. But it was switched off. Frustrated he called Baji,"haan phoonch gaya hoon , bas I'll be out in an hour or so ,tu ah raha hai mujhe lena,? he asked.Baji on a high yelled ,"Bhao tu and ho gaya! mar gaye mein teri bagher , bas jaldi mil , haan main phoonche ga airport! Iam on my way,"Dutta cut him short, "oye Naku ko bhi saath le ke ayea ga tu? woh kaise hai Baji bol?" he demanded.Baji nervously explained "haan Dutta woh thek hai , woh main jaldi mein tha is liye main ekla he hoon , baki tu jab mila ga tu I'll brief you on the way home Bhao , bas tu land ker, collect your baggage and come out I'll be here waiting for you, milte hain Bhao.."said Baji and Dutta weighed down by some anxiety, over unanswered questions started to prepare to disembark.Once arrival procedures were met with, he collected his booked in baggage with from the baggage hall and wheeled his trolley towards the arrivals gate. Baji with tears in his eyes leapt towards Dutta and clung to his bosom and hugged him tighter ,and Dutta raised his arms and patted his dil and jigar's back ,with a sibilant whisper in his ear ,"chaal choor mujhe uniform mein hoon main us waqat log kiya soochein ge ke tu bloody civvie chummy ho raha hai ek fauji ke saath" . Baji let go and sniffed, his nostrils red and took the luggage trolley from his friend and noted the Drambuie "hai mera liye"! , and Dutta glared at him," haan tera liya haina mera pas ek mokka zor ka tera kaan ke neeche, chaal",Baji loaded the jeep and opened the passenger seat for Dutta and himself sat in the driver's seat and drove out of airport parking. Dutta put on his ray bans and said ," chaal ab bak ke Naku kyon nehi aye? tell me waise can't believe it that she wasn't impatient to see her Saab, hummh?" Baji looked sideways at his friend , he wasn't going to lie , if anything at all his Bhao hated with a vengeance it was lies , "ummh Bhao woh hospital mein hai for observations, Kala tai and AS also agreed that she should be, uske back main dard the is liya.." explained Baji but Dutta slammed his palm on the dash board of the jeep,"you bloody fool! you blinking idiot! and you bloody thought it not important to inform me her husnand Baji? I am very very cross! he bellowed loudly as the jeep stood near the traffic light attracting attention from other motorists, and once again he banged his palm on the dash board,"tera idea hoga ke Bhao ko maat batao ,tune apne hero giri ju dekhna hai!" he yelled. Baji grit his teeth and his eyes welled up with tears, he was not entirely surprised at his Bhao's reaction ,it was his way of releasing stress but he felt he had to say something to defend himself,"no Bhao it was not my idea! the family decided that you should be told when you get here , besides Naku didn't want it either ,and how were we supposed to tell you? humien khud bhi nehi pata thatthings would take such a turn ,any way she;'s fine mera subah us se baat hoi hai nurses are looking after her" Dutta was still restless and Baji changed the subject "abhi we go home tu 7 hrs ke flight le kar aya hai ghar ja ke have a shower phir sab chalen ge Naku ko milne"he suggested. Dutta slammed his palm on the dash board again "are you kidding Iam not going home Baji I am going to the military hospital first to see her ,I want to see her! now! have I made myself clear?!" he shouted again at the traffic lights , and Baji tried to divert his attention "aacha Bhao bata London ka mausam kaisa hai? sune hai British logon ka favourite topic of politeness is to discuss the weather".Dutta looked sideways and gave Baji killing looks,"ok Baji !cut the small talk and race the jeep! growled Dutta. As they neared the next set of traffic lights Baji, concerned for his friend yet again suggested that a visit home would not be a bad idea. Dutta grabbed the stirring wheel from Baji ,jumped out from his side and walked to the driver's side and commanded Baji ," chaal go to the passenger side ab main jeep chalia ga or hum uder jaeen ga jahan mujhe jana chaiya "he roared.Without asking further questions Baji did what he was told to do like an obedient child.Dutta turned to face his friend sideways and turned the ignition key and as soon as the chance allowed him he raced down the highway riding on the wings of Pegasus! this horse knew no bounds and he didn't care either touching an elevated speed till he saw the signs of the military hospital, where he bridled himself, and his foot found the brake pedal in the parking lot.

He jumped out raced up the entrance stairs as he was in uniform, in swiftness he accepted salutes and strode straight down the corridors, as Baji matchedhis Bhao's fast paced steps.There was no stopping Dutta now! but stop he did as he saw his family. His mother with open arms beckoned him and he doubled his body to touch her feet and then received her embrace as his heart jumped in side his thorax. Others moved towards him but he raised his palm and simply uttered "Naku"...his mother ponited to the closed door to their side and he stood before it took a deep breath and pushed the door and stepped inside.Very obviously he closed the door of the private room behind him. His furrowed brow with a pair of tearful eyes beheld his love , lying there eyes closed dressed in a baby blue low neck hosital gown covered by a bed cover. He stood and gazed at her flowing black hair loose and spread on the either side of her propped up pillows, her dainty fair hands lay one upon the other on her belly. He stood enchanted, till he slowly walked towards her bed and looked down at her.He saw her black winged eyebrows quivered bit so he softly called out her name "Naku..". Her eyes opened with immediate effect and tears welled up in her large green doe eyes.Saaab! she went and opened her arms as he sat on the edge of her bed and she sat up and they both moved near each other, as her arms felt his strong wide shoulders and broad chest. He closed his arms around her back and he held her closely,as her crying face pushed onto his hairy chest and he rested his broad indented stubble chin on the top of her warm head. Her hands grabbed the collars of his uniformed shirt followed by a spate of tears against his neck.. "Saab, maine kitna yaad kiya ap ko... ooohhh" she cried and moved her head from underneath his chin and held his stubble face in her soft warm pink palms, as his palms caressed her back. He moved his palms to her face and felt her soft face in his palms and touched her forehead with his lips as he whispered in her face,"kya halat buna le hai tuna Naku , apne khyal nehi rekh sakte tu hummh? he said as his fore finger gently pushed her face up , his eyes giving her a mock challenged look , "chaal ah ja mera pas my darling ab main ah gaye hoon ,you;ll be fit as a fiddle in no time hummh? he said as his lips pressed on the top of her soft forehead. She closed her arms around his back and he hugged her tighter to his chest as his face moved to her look at her bare slender neck and his lips brushed against her soft neck, and her whole body shuddered as a shot of energy zapped her into being alive.. She closed her eyes and hugged him even tighter as her whole anxiety just followed out of the tips of fingers to the tips of her toes, he was back her lion man , her action man , and everything will be alright like he said. They just sat and gazed at each other's windows of the soul, articulation or sensation was unnecessary to convey how much each missed the other. Dutta on second thought looked hungrily at her thin rose bud mouth and an passionate impulse took charge of him, and forgetting his husbandly imposed restrain, with intent he slowly moved his face close to her.. and the door sprung open!. In rude shock Dutta sprang to his feet hot with embarrassment at being nearly caught in the act. Soon after biting his lip he stood aside, as he allowed the nurse to do her business. However with folded arms and legs slightly apart, he stood in full uniform , but scrutinized the nurse as she propped up Naku's pillows. She pushed the table trolley tray and directed,"ye Nakusha ap ke liye breakfast hai, please eat it" and she was about to set the tray before Naku, who shook her head and refused. But Dutta leaned forward and took the tray from the nurse and firmly placed the tray before Naku and sat down with a ,"I'll make sure she eats it ma'am",and then looked at Naku with fierce eyes ,"kha ye porridge nehi tu main zaberdasti tera mau khol ker! I'll pour it down your bloody throat!"he warned.She gulped and with a downcast face reached out for the shiny silver spoon ,"khate hoon dante kyon hoon Saab! ata he ap shorro ho gaye,"she resisted and he ignored her moans and pointed to the bowl muttered "teri harktien he aise hain ke you are dying to be told off , itne weeks se tera dhulaiye ju nehi hoi , ab main ah gayea hoon na main"and Baji barged in, and completed Dutta's sentence "tu Naku ab main thujhe love he love de ga 24/7! ,"he guffawed, and Dutta said as he stood up "Baji call AS ke iske saAr pe beitheien edhur to make sure she finishes her porridge and her piece of bread , and I'll go tell the nurse that Naku needs to have a piece of fruit or some orange juice for breakfast as well"! and he looked at Naku and said "main ata hoon zarra ek minute ke bad". Naku gave him an insecure look and he gave her a small smile and licked his lower lip and she lowered her eyes bashfully.. to be continued Hamlet 53~30.11.2
