Krishna follows her daily,all the way,but Pratigya doesn't react,it's fruitless to say him to stay away..everyday morning she went to Trivedi house,and when she comes out from the house she finds Krishna waiting for her,she takes rikshaw,and Krishna follows her keeping some distance.He just makes sure that again no mishap takes place.Pratigya enters in Saxena house,Krishna goes back to his place.It's like a cold war.Pratigya wants to see how long he can follow her,Krishna wants to see how long she can be indifferent.There will be one day for sure when Pratigya will come to him,she doesn't ignore him,she just pretends to do the same. Krishna can understand that.
But one day he was standing before Trivedi house,but Pratigya didn't come out, Krishna became restless..he asked to a neighbour then got the news that Trivedi family was out of station.It was very obvious that Pratigya didn't come to this area that day.It has been three months ,Krishna is following her,now he can't do any more delay..this problem must be sorted out.
Pratigya was seated in the University library,her classes were commenced.From the very first day she focused on her study,if she would not study hard,then she wouldn't get good grades,this will lead her to the loosing the schollarship,she
can't let this happen.This schollarship is so important to her.It will make up all the expenses for the LLB course.Things are not so easy,she can sense that,Arushi is still studying,the daily expenses,medicines,commodities,price of everything is hiking to astronomical altitude.Now is she looses the schollarship,it will be a great pressure for her family.LLB course needs a room full of books,case histories..if Prof. Saxena wants to meet his daughter he has two easy choices,outside her class room and the library..he doesn't even need to go upto the canteen.But he feels sad.Something is bothering Pratigya for sure,but she is not saying anything,it is not Krishna of course because after Nitin's marriage fiasco,Krishna was also disappeared from the scene.
Krishna was also in deep thought,where did she go?She doesn't come now to Trivedi House..where can she go?He didn't imagine that she can study further.But all of a sudden the atmosphere of University became firy..Arts Department was
ceased to exist due to student fight.A furious student threw his fellow student from the first floor balcony on the ground..Police came,it was scary and rather ugly.As a result the examinations and the GS Election ,both were postponed.
Things got really ugly,Thakur Sajjan Singh was happy to see that his son was not chanting anymore the name of that Kayasth girl..Pratigya.Actually Krishna was angry with Pratigya and her family.Again,they must have sent Pratigya far away from Allahabad..and Pratigya..couldn't she oppose?Why always she gives up before her family members?Thakur Saab was again pressurised by the MLA,to fix the matter of the Professors..Shakti was out of town..Krishna insisted to accompany him..he was so eager to put a gun on Prof. Saxena's head and to have the address of Pratigya.
"Kaa hua Baba?Porfesorva k sar pe gun rakh k tu kaa kahega?Fir se natak kia toh dui jutta maarenge toka..behooda sasoora.."..Sajjan growled..
"Chinta na karo Baojee..us Porfesor ki aaj main band baja k rahoonga..sasoor humre naak me dum kar die..dekhte hain uu aapki baat kaise nahi maanta..". Krishna roared..
"Uski laundi ka bhoot to tohar sar se utar gaya hai..dubara oka dekh kar baola toh nahi ban jaayega..majnu ki doom?"..Sajjan teased..
"Kaa Baojee..aap bhi..aapko apne kaam se matlab hai na..ho jaayega..chalo abhi.."..Krishna started his jeep..
Pratigya went to University,Adarsh had taken a leave to take Dadi to the Doctor.. Shyamjee was on a casual leave..Arushi was studying in her room..when the door was knocked..Shyamjee opened it and got a shock..Krishna was there and an
aged man was with him.Shyamjee recognised him,he was none other than Thakur Sajjan Singh."Namaskar Porfesor saab,aap bade admi hai,aapko samjhana bachchon ka kaam nahi..hum khud hi chale aaye..chaliye..darwaje par tamasa na
kar k..andar chal k baat karte hain.."..Sajjan enetered almost forcefully..
"Dekhiye Thakur Saab..aap jo kahne aaye hain,woh hum nahi kar sakte.." Shyamjee said politely..
"GS elecsion roj toh hoga nahi Porfesor saab..is baar paas karaye do..agli baar se aapko tungh nahi karega mera Beta.."..Sajjan assured him..
"Aapka Beta kaafi tungh kar chuka hai Thakur Saab.."..Shyamjee said annoyingly..
"Arre,haan,nahi aap bharosa rakhiye..Kisna ab aapki Beti k peechhe nahi aayega ..uske sar se bhoot utar chuka hai..aap bas yeh kaam kar deo humara..chaaho toh keemat lei lo..batao..kitna paisa chahie?"..Sajjan asked..
"Hum padhate hain Thakur Saab..bachche padh k jeevan me aage badhe..issi me hum khush hain..aur koi laalach humen nahi hain..aap meherbani kar k humen aise kaam k lia naahi kahe toh achha hoga.."....Shyamjee begged,..
"Aare yaar baat ko samajhte naahi ho..hum kaa keh rahe hain jisme hum dono ka faaida ho..tum sasoor..ek hi raag alap rahe ho..baat ko samjho yaar.."..Sajjan shouted ..
"Yeh humare usoolon k khilaf hai.."Shyamjee couldn't finish..his head was on gun point..Krishna aimed at him.."Zyada bol bachan nahi Sasoorjee..aapke usool gaye tel lene,Baojee jo kahe..maan leo..aur humka ee batao..Pratigyajee ko kahan bhej
die ho fir se?Humen aaj kal woh dikhti nahi..."..Krishna said angrily..
"Abe,tu fir se wahi chakkar me,Kisna,behooda,sasoor..kaam ki baat kar.. Porfesor.. ee k baat me dhyaan mat deo..humri baat suno.."..Sajjan suggested..
"Kyaa kar rahe hain aap log..?Dekhiye."..Nainajee cried..Shyamjee was perspiring ..Arushi came hearing the voices..after seeing the scene she became frozen..
Sajjan snatched the gun from Krishna,"Bhag be behooda..chup chaap baith.. sasoor..jinka Beta humri Beti ka jaan bachaya..usike sar pe tum sala bandook taan rahe ho...behooda..narak sala..baitho chup chaap.."..Sajjan said..
Nainajee and Shyamjee were stunned to hear that..Adarsh said Sajjan Singh's daughter's life?How?When?
"Porfesor Saab..baat ko samjho...jarurat hai yaar..varna hum aate kaa?"..Sajjan said politely..
"Sahi kaha..zaroorat hai..issi lia aap aaye..."..a female voice was heard..it was Pratigya..Krishna's face became enlightened to see her after a long period.. "Arre..aap yehi hain..aur hum abhi Sasoorjee se aapke bare me puchh rahe the..k aapko fir se toh
kahin bhej nahi dia inhone?"..Krishna said smilingly..
"Tum mere Baap ko gaali mat do..apna sasoor keh kar..samjhe?"..Pratigya said harshly..Sajjan Singh frowned.."Thakur Saab..aap apne Bete ko samjhaiye..jeena haram kar dia hai..isne humara...har jagah mere peechhe aata hai..I am really sick
of it.."..Pratigya said calmly..
"Haan..par itne dino se to aap humko dikhi nahi...kahan thi aap?"..Krishna asked shamelessly..Shyamjee and Nainajee were staring at both,Krishna and Pratigya.. "Woh kyaa hai..main din bhar chai ki dukan yaa dhabe par baith nahi sakti..road par yuh hi ghumna mujhe pasand nahi..main yehi hu..tumne sahi jagah dhundha nahi..aur tum naa khud wahan gaye ho kabhi..naa kisi aur ko soch sakte ho wahan par.."..Pratigya said...
"Ohhoo..aisa kaunsa mahel hai Beta..hum bhi sune..kahan jaati ho tum..jahan humar Kisna nahi jaata?"..Sajjan asked mockingly..
"Jee..University..woh kyaa hai..Lucknow se main Graduation kar k aai..Allahabad University me mauka mila hai..Law padhne ka..ussike classes hote hain Thakur Saab.."..Pratigya replied calmly..
Sajjan Singh looked at her for a while..she is good looking,Krishna is right,she is pretty indeed.Both siblings ,Pratigya and Adarsh,are handsome enough to tempt anyone.Krishna really has a reason to go crazy about this girl.
"Kaa hai..aapke Pitajee nahi samajh rahe hain..hum kab se keh rahe hain Beta.." ..Sajjan started to explain..
"Wahi..students ko pass karanewali baat?"..Pratigya enquired..
"Haan,Beta..wahi baat..samjhao apne Pitajee ko.."..Sajjan said..
"Mere Papa k kuchh usool hai Thakur Saab,failure students ko bina supply exam die pass karana..yeh kuchh zyada nahi ho gaya?Ek kaam kia jaa sakta hai..jisse aapka kaam bhi ho jaaye aur mere Papa k usool bhi na toote..",Pratigya
suggested,..
"Pratigya..yeh kyaa keh rahi ho?"..Shyamjee shouted...
"Relax Papa..let me handle this..we have had enough of this bull shit.."..Pratigya said..
"Kaunsa rasta hai tumre paas..jisse dono ki baat reh jaaye?",Sajjan asked curiously..
"Un students ko kahiye..k supply k exam me baithe..Papa unko jo chapters bata denge..woh ghaur se padh k aaye..ussi me se Papa question karenge..jo jo chapter Papa kahenge..zyada nahi..teen yaa chaar..asli exam se bahut kum ..woh log exam de de..passing mark mil jaaye toh thik..varna..fail,.."..Pratigya advised coolly..
"Sab hi pass honge..ee ki kaa guranty hai?"..Sajjan Singh asked..
"Humne kab kaha..sab pass honge?Do ek fail ho jaaye toh kya?Zyadatar toh pass ho sakte hain,wahi zyadatar log aapki party k lia vote karenge,chunav kaunsi party jeetti hai?Jinke paas zyada vote hota hai,hai na?"Pratigya said.."Un students ko kahiye..University me Papa se mile..suggestion le..baaki unki mehnat.. unki kismat.."..
Sajjan Singh thought for a while..she made sense.It was actually a way to keep both sides in balance.He was also irritated by the demands of the students who actually studied nothing and yet had a wish to pass.."You take it or leave it..yehi ho sakta hai..isse zyada Papa kuchh nahi karenge..aap chaahe yaa naa chaahe..itna hi hoga humse..aap soch lijiye.."..Pratigya concluded..
Krishna sensed his father's anticipation by listening the offer,"Dekha Baojee..bole the na..bahut samajhdar..padhi likhi..hain Pratigyajee.."..Krishna said gladly..
"Abe tum toh chup hi raho..sasoor kauno kaam toh tumse hota nahi..jab kaam banta najar aata hai..tab tumhara jaban chalta hai..lap lap..lap lap..behooda kahin k..thik hai Porfesor Saab..yehi sahi..aap itna hi kar deo..baaki ka hum samhal
lenge..chalte hain..namaskar..namaste Bhabhijee.."..Sajjan Singh left dragging Krishna by his elbow.."Chal be majnu ki doom..sasoor..nayi nautanki chalu tumri.. maarenge kaan k neeche.."..Sajjan said..
"What was that Pratigya.."..Shyamjee asked..
"Papa please..no more questions..I am sick of it..I had no other choice..Thakur Sajjan Singh is the best weapon to control that crazy bull.."..Pratigya said..and left to her room..
