Chapter 8
Laksh's pov::
I came back home dejected. I did not knew the reason of my sadness. Why was I so upset over ragini's marriage. Yes ragini's marriage that was the reason of my sadness. At least I accepted that.
When I entered the house maa and papa were having dinner. Dad saw me and my long face.
Dp- " kya hua laksh itne pareshaan kyu ho?"
I was thinking what to say.
Ap- " laksh beta tumhara result kaisa raha? "
Dp- " dekho beta agar marks kam aaye hai to bhi ab udaas hone ka kya faayda. Aage aur mehnat karna"
Laksh-" dad mere 65 marks aaye hai"
Maa and dad froze. Wow my parents couldn't believe that I could get marks like that. I took out the sheet and left it on the table. Dad was analyzing my sheet. I had no interest to answer his questions. I went to my room.
Ragini was crying. She is also not happy about it. I will call her I will convince her to stand for herself. I picked up the mobile but stopped myself. It was late she will get angry. So what I won't mind her scolding me for her sake. I dialled her number. It seemed like a long wait.
Finally she picked up the phone.
Ragini-" hello"
Laksh- " ragini mai laksh bol raha hu"
She did not say anything. Had she cut the call?
Ragini-" sorry laksh humne tumhari baat nahi suni thi. Kitne marks aaye tumhare?"
Laksh- " arre chodo marks ko ragini tum ye shaadi mat karo"
Silence again
Ragini-" hum kya kare laksh dadi maa nahi manegi"
Laksh- " dadi maa ki toh.."
Ragini-" laksh wo dadi hai hamari"
Laksh- " haan to mai bhi to yehi keh raha hu dadi maa ki toh mai bohot respect karta hu ragini. But it is your life tum aisa kaise kar sakti ho apne saath. Do you know him?"
Ragini-" nahi, tumhe kya lagta hai ye hamari marzi hai. Koi hamari baat sun hi nahi raha"
Laksh-" koi to hoga ragini. Socho koi aisa Jo convince ho sake ke tum iss shaadi se khush nahi ho"
Ragini-" haan koi hai. Humne ye kyu nahi socha thanks laksh"
Laksh- " haan thank you mat kaho mai tumhare saath hu ragini.
She was so silent. Maybe she froze.
Kuch aur mat samajhna mai to isliye saath hu kyunki agar tumhari shaadi itni jaldi ho gayi to mujhe padayega kaun. Aur waise bhi mai kisi naari par atyachar hote nahi dekh sakta"
I heard her giggling.
Ragini-" bye laksh"
Laksh- " bye"
But none of us cut the call. After a minute. She said
Ragini-" wo tum pass ho gaye laksh"?
Laksh-" pass arre mere to bohot achhe marks aaye hai. Pucho kitne?"
Ragini-" batao na"
Laksh- " 65 marks"
Ragini-" hum bohot khush hai laksh. Aapke itne achhe marks aaye hai "
Laksh- " thank you ragini"
Ragini-" mention not. Bye"
Laksh- " bye"
Again we were waiting.
Ragini-" cut karo call"
Laksh- " tum karo cut"
Ragini-" nahi call tumne ki thi tum cut karo"
Laksh- " nahi mujhe cut nahi karna"
After a minute she said-" hum 3 tak count karenge. 1,2,3"
We both cut it together. There was a big smile on my face. It has become the best time for me to talk to ragini. I don't know why? I was in my thoughts when my stomach rumbled.
" inn sab me dinner karna to bhul gaya. Pet me chuhe kud rahe hai."
I was really happy now. Maybe she will get out of this problem now. I ran out of my room to have dinner.
