part 1 :-
Anandi was brushing her hairs and was thinking about ganga & her sufferings, how much pain & betrayal that girl has got in her life. Actually she is comparing herself with ganga as she is also a victim of bal vivah but is lucky enough to get a husband of her age and in-laws who treats her as their daughter. She remembers that when jagya married to gauri then also her inlaws considered and accepted only her their bahu and constantly supported her in her struggles. She was lost in thoughts when a box kept on dressing table fall on her feet. Ouch she screamed. Just then shiv entered and saw her feet. He rushed towards her to see what happened.
S: Anandi , kya hua ?
A: kuch nahi collector saab, wo bas aise hi.
S: kya aise hi, apna pair dikhaiye mujhe.
He kneels down, took her feet in his hands and started to inspect.
S: Anandi, kya karti hain aap, aapke pair se to khoon nikal raha h. main abhi first aid box leke aata hoon.
A: nahi kuch nahi hain. choti si chot hai apne aap theek ho jaegi collector saab.
She said as soon as He rushed for thebox. he came up with the box and starts to apply the cream.
S: aise kaise theek ho jaega, agar cream nahi lagai aur ghaav badh gaya to?
he said while applying the cream on her feet. She looks at the concerned face of her husband. She was admiring him. How much he is concerned & worried for her. He cant bear a small wound hurting her wife. How much he loves her. She again thinks of Ganga who was beaten to death(almost) by her cruel husband. Without any fault that poor girl has to bear all the torture from her inlaws as she had noone by her side. Unlike her, Anandi thought , she had got inlaws who treat her as their daughter and had once broken all the relations from their only son just for her sake. She was busy admiring her husband and was so lost in her thoughts that she cant even hear what shiv asked her.
S: Anandi , aapko dard to nahi ho raha na?
She came back from her thoughts with this question.
A: kuch kaha aapne collector saab?
S: maine poocha aapko dard to nahin ho raha hai na?
A: nahi..theek hai ab.
S: raat bohot ho gayi hai ab , ab aap so jaaiye.
She nodded her head in agreement and thet both went to sleep.
But She was not able to sleep tonight. The horrified story of ganga was keep hitting her mind. She kept on thinking about it. She kept on thinking that how lucky she is. Although she is a child bride but she is not married to an older person. Even if dadisa tortured her in her childhood, she had her maa, baapusa & even jagya for her rescue. Also her inlaws helped her to complete her studies against dadisa. And when she returned jaitser after 5 years then also the family welcomed her and at that time jagya also was in love with her. Even after arrival of Gauri, she had her inlaws & the whole jaitser by her side. She looked at shiv who was sleeping on his side, suddenly she felt so blessed to have a husband like him who supports her, respects her, admire her and above all love her unconditionally without any expectations. She was again admiring and adoring her sleeping husband. and before she knows she was asleep.
Next morning she woke up, smiles at her sleeping husband and left the bed. While she was getting ready, she looked at the sindoor and at her husband. Today she was so proud in putting the sindoor on her head as it symbolizes that she belongs to someone for whom she is so special & precious. Then she put the bangles given by shiv. He was still sleeping. She notices that it was not late, actually she had woke up early. She once again looks at her reflection, smiles and leaves the room.
After sometime shiv wake up and found that anandi was not on her side, instead there lies his ironed clothes and other accessories which he was supposed to wear. A broad smile arrives on his face.
After sometime he goes to dining table for breakfast. Everyone was there CM, Saanchi but where is anandi. She must be in kitchen. Suddenly anandi emerged with the breakfast.While placing the plate on table,she looked at him. There is an eye-lock. Shiv saw something different in her eyes today. She was looking different. Although there is nothing new in her entire attire but her face was glowing , her eyes are filled with happiness & pride.
CM: Kya baat hai anandi, aaj tum kuch alag rahi ho.
Sanchi gave a look at anandi.
San: Kya CM , kuch bhi to new nahi hai anandi bhabhi mein. roz jaisi hi to lag rahi hai.
Shiv cant took her eyes off anandi.
S: Nahi sanchi, aaj kuch to khas hai.
anandi blushed after hearing this. She just smiled.
That day Shiv was in office when bheem singh came & said " Sir aapke ghar se tiffin aaya hai "
Shiv was too busy in his work that he asked bheem singh to eat it as he neither have time nor the appetite to eat.
Bheem singh opens the tiffin in no-time after hearing this. He opens each box and tells shiv about the content. Shiv was hearing all this. He was suprised as all things were his favourites.
Then suddenly Bheem singh said "Sir, isme ek chitthi hai"
Bheem singh was about to aopen it when shiv snatched it from his hand.
The chit reads "Bheem singh ji aur aapke liye" He smiled at the chit and then gave a look at the food and said "Bheem singh, tum khana lagao main aata hoon"
B.S.: par sir aapko to bhookh nahi thi na.
Shiv give a look at his PA.
B.S.: theek hai sir lagata hoon, waise bhi khana to aapke ghar se aaya hai na.
Shiv wants to talk to anandi so he makes a call to her.
S:- Aapko itna sab karne ki kya zarurat thi, Anandi.
"Zarurat to nahi thi par kya kare shiv tumhari biwi manti hi nahi"
S:- CM aap?? anandi kahan hai?
CM:- woh school gayi hai. keh rahi thi bohot dino se nahi ja payi to aaj chali gayi. aur wo apna mobile le jaana bhool gayi hai. Shiv tumne khana khaya ki nahi?
S:- Nahi CM bas ja hi raha tha.
CM:- Khana kha lena. waise bhi anandi ne saari cheeze tumhari pasand ki banayi hai. Subah se mujhse bas yahi pooch rahi hai ki tumhe aur kya pasand hai. Lagta hai aaj raat ka khana bhi tumhari hi pasand ka banega.Achcha tum Khana kha lo. main phone rakhti hoon.
She cuts the call. Shiv was surprised and also happy with this gesture of his wife.
He reached home a bit late than usual. Everyone was waiting for him for the dinner. CM opens the door and gave a mischievous smile to shiv. He cant get it what happened so he asked " kya hua CM aap aise kyu dekh rahi hai?"
CM:- kuch nahi shiv. tum chalo fresh ho jao aur khana khane aa jao.
After freshening up when he showed up for dinner he saw that the dining table was filled with his favorite dishes. He looked at CM who gave him a " I told you" expression. He then saw that anandi is coming with his another favorite and place it on the dining table.
CM:- Shiv aaj kuch hai kya?? mera matlab jhan tak mera khayal hai aaj tumhara janamdin to bilkul nahi hai.
CM teased shiv. Shiv was also surprised , what had happened to his wife today. Anandi smiled.
S:- Anandi , aapko itni mehnat karne ki kya zarurat thi. waise bhi aapne lunch mein hi itna kuch bhej diya tha.
As anandi was about to reply, CM again comes in teasing mode.
CM:- ek baat kahun shiv, agar anandi tumhe isi tarah khana bana bana k khilati rahi to kuch hi dino mein tumhara pet bahar nikal aaega. mote ho jaoge tum.
Shiv then saw his favorite dish & screamed with joy "gond k laddu!!"
S:- CM aapne banaye??
CM:- nahi shiv aaj sab kuch anandi ne hi banaya hai.
He looked at anandi and remembered that jagya once told him that she dont like it at all. He then saw anandi eating it. He was again surprised.
S:- Anandi aapko to ye bilkul pasand nahi hai na, phir????
A:- Aisa aapse kisne keh diya collector saab? haan ye sach hai ki main nahi khaati ye laddu par ab sochti hoon itne bhi bure nahi hai ye. Aap khaiye na.
Saying this she eats the whole laddu infront of shiv. Then she looked at shiv " hmmm bohot swaad hain. collector saab kha lijiye warna ye sab main hi khatm kar dungi"
CM laughed. Shiv looked at anandi, her eyes has something different in it.
