Chapter 1: Zindagi Ka Safar...
"ZINDAGI KA SAFAR HAI KAISA SAFAR KOI SAMJHA NAHI KOI JAANA NAHI..."
After listening to this song. she turns the small gramophone off, that antique piece which she has inherited from her Daadi.
She quietly comes and lays down on her couch and starts penning down things into her diary, which was,perhaps, by now had become a habit. Her day was only complete after recording the details and listening to the songs.
11.55
pm ,27 September
AGI,London.
Aaj phir ek din guzar gaya,wahi lamba aur thakadene waala .Ek
aur aisa din mere iss ZINDAGI ka.
(One more lengthy and exhausting day.
Phew! What a day it had been.Well,yet another day of this LIFE has passed)
Kabhi kabhi mujhe khud par yaakeen nahi hota, ki main ye sab
karneki ki TAAKAT kaise rakti hoon,shayad mera JUNOON hi meri TAAKAT ban gayi
hain.Kya se kya ho gayi meri zindagi...BADAL gaya sab kuch.Ya kuch wahi rah
gaya hai mujme?
Itni ULJHI hui nahi thi meri ZINDAGI ya shayad ab kya kuch
SULJHI hui hai???
Yeh meri woh CHOTI DUNIYA toh nahi, jahan sirf PYAAR aur
RISHTE mayine rakhte hain.
Aur mera PARIVAAR?Naa jaane kaise honge woh sab.Ek bhi pal
aisa nahi guzra aaj tak ki main unhe yaad na kiya ho.Apne chahne waalon ka
saath chootna TAKLEEF aur ADHOORAPAN deta hai.Shayad woh logmere iss kadam ke
liye mujhe iss kadam ke liye kabhi muaff na kar paaye.
Samajh mein nahi aata mere iss HAALAT ka ZIMMEDAAR kaun hai-
Insaan, Niyati,ya mera ASTHITVA?
Zindagi ke iss MUKAAM par ab kuch nahi chahiye mujhe. Naa
kisi cheez ki ZAROORAT hai aur na kisi ne koi SHIQWA.Jaisi hoon theek hoon.
Akele jeene ki aadat ho gayi hai.Agar kuch kami hai, woh hai
PYAAR.Kehte hain PEHLA pyaar bohut suhaana hota hai aur zaroori nahi hai ki wahi
aakhri ho.Par mere liye wahi AKHRI EHSAAS tha.Ek ajeeb si, KHAALIPAN hai
zindagi mein.
Khair. Bas umeed hai ki meri iss FAISLE ki WAJAH, ab tak
MUKAMMAL ho gayi hogi. Sochti hoon, kaisi hogi meri behen...Khush toh hain
na??Kya mujhe uss se milna chahiye?
~~d.h.a
(Sometimes I don't understand that how
am I able to do this all things.May be, my PASSION has become my STRENGTH. This
was not at all my life.I can't believe how my life has transformed.Everything
has changed or is there something that ha not changed really?
My life was not COMPLICATED or rather
now it is so SIMPLE??
My small world was full of LOVE and
precious RELATIONS.
And my family?I don't know how they
are now.Never a day had passed without remembering them.Not having your kin
with makes you feel INCOMPLETE and gives you PAIN.I don't know if they ever
would FORGIVE me for my decision.
I don't know whom I must hold
responsible for these circumstances,those people,destiny or my IDENTITY.
At this PHASE of my life, I neither need
anything nor I have any COMPLAINTS.Am I satisfied?Well,however,I am fine.
I have learned to lead this life
ALONE.If anything is not there ,that is my LOVE. People often say that FIRST
LOVE is very fascinating experience,not necessarily being the LAST feeling,but
EVERLASTING.But for me it was my FIRST was LAST LOVE ,the love of my life. A
very strange LONELINESS is there in life.
Let it be.I just hope that my DECISION
had done the work for which it was intended.How must my sister have been??Is she
happy in her life?Should I meet her?)
As soon as she finishes writing,a lone
tear falls from her eyes.She wipes it away,fearing that her emotions might make
her weak.She falls asleep on her couch, with her diary on her lap.

The Next Day-
"Uth Jaiye ,Madam!Company ki MD hokar aap late nahi ho sakti.(Wake
up, Madam!You can't be late being MD of a company.)
By the way, today,we have a meeting with our new associates
and some presentations over some new projects and designs and you have to
attend a special briefing with the media for the entrepreneurs."
"Meri neend tumhaare uthaane se pehli hi khul gayi thi
Kritika.Waise bhi mujhe meri zimmedaariyaan yaad hoti hain."(I
am already awake Kritika and I never forget my responsibilities)
"Jaanti hoon,magar tumhari Secretary hone ke naate mera farz
hai ki mai tumhe hamesha tumhare schedules ke baare me update karoon"(I
know that you are a very responsible person.But being your Secretary,it's my
duty to update you about your schedules.)
"Haan,magar meri Secretary se pehle tum meri sabse kareebi
dost ho.Shukriya mere zindagi mein aane ke liye!"(Yeah,but
before becoming my Secretary,you are my best friend.Thank you for being that.)
"Isiliye aapko bhala bura kehne ka haq hai mujhe.Aur agar
mushkil wakt mein hum ek doosre ke kaam na aaye toh dosti kaisi?I will always
be your well wisher"(I know that.That's why I have all
rights for telling you anything.And a friend in need is a friend indeed!)
"Badi badi baate hmmn, accha mai soch
rahi thi,ki main tumhe kuch dino ki chutti de doon. Aise haalato mein aaram
karna chahiye,Kritika.Main nahi chahti ki tu iss tarah tensions le." (Profound
words eh?! I was thinking to give you a few days leave. You seriously need some
rest in this stage,Kritika.I don't think you should take any tension.)
"Arre baba, ab to mera sirf pehla mahina hai.Kuch nahi hoga
yaar.Acchi baat hai ki woh bhi andar se kaam karna seekh jaayega.
Stress to tu
lena band kar.Kyun yaar apne aap ko iss tarah,kaam mein itna ulajhti ho.Kahi
aisa na ho ki ki tum khud ko kho do.Kya ek baar bhi tumhe ye nahi lagta ki
tumhe kam se kam unke bare mein sochna chahiye,khud ke baare mein bhi sochna
chahiye?
Kitne din ho gaye tujhe hase ya roye.Please yaar iss tarah apne jazbaat
ko dabaane se dil bhaari ho jaata hai.Tu agar mujhse share nahi karna chahti to
koi baat nahi kam se kam akele mein hi sahi,apni iss kadvahat ko baahar
nikalo.Yeh zaroori hai"
(Offo, I am just in first month of my
pregnancy! You need not worry.It is good that that my baby will learn to work hard.Anyway,it is you who must not take much stress.Why do just immerse yourself so
much into work? I fear that you might lose yourself.Atleast think of them and
yourself.I just don't remember the last time you smiled or cried.Please don't
suppress your emotions like this,it hurts you.No problem,if you don't want to
share with me,but ,please atleast when you are alone,try to pour out your heart
dear.It is much needed.)
"Baar baar tum wahi masla lekar kyun
aati ho?Please Kritika.Main sab kuch chhod chuki hoon. Ab iss bare mein koi
baat nahi hogi."(Why
always you try to bring the same issue?I had left everything.I don't want to
talk about this anything.)She goes to get ready for office.
"Rab ji,madad karna uski. "(Oh God!please help
her.)
Saying this to that lady,Kritika calls to the servant.
"Ann?Is everything
ready?We would be late today probably so better don't prepare dinner.If there
any changes, I will let you know"
"Ok,Ma'am".She goes away
The lady comes down, with her tablet and her mobile
phone.She is taking her calls and hurriedly walks towards the car.
"Madam,aapka bag rakhwadiya hai gaadi mein and... "
"It's fine Kritika.What about the Lunani's?Have they signed
for the deal? I remember that they were interested in our designs."
"I have talked to their associate,they would be approaching
us tomorrow.And the Rathore Company is..."
"Is?"
"Actually they want some negotiations and allowances."
"This is impossible. I would be rather better if we cancel
their deal."
"But, Ma'am..."
"No arguments. I don't have to make a deal with fussy
people.I need quality and for this I am never going to compromise."
"Yeah sure Ma'am"
"Before we start our briefing, I would like have a press
conference,for furnishing the details of our NEW decisions."
"Sure ma'am,but don't you think it's too rushed...this was
planned to be done later..."
"Better do what is said to you.Don't act smart.I need not
know from you what has to be done and when."
"Alright ma'am.I am sorry. You will be facing them in half
an hour."
"Better."
Exactly, after half an hour,the media is assembled in the hall.Then
comes the MD of AGI, to address the gathering.
"Good morning ladies and gentlemen!
There is a special
reason for calling this meet.I am sorry it was little bit rushed.
I officially
declare about the release of new projects of our company for this annum and one
more important announcement is that ...the Malhotras are now associated
with our company.We would be working for our future projects in collaboration.
This is a one year venture.Any questions? "(Everybody clap)
"Madam,we have come to
know that you are isolated one of a kind?"
"I would rather say that I am a one man ARMY"
"Can you give us the details of your projects and
collaborations ? "
"Details would be published in our website,notices, tenders
and petitions have been initiated.The rest details will be furnished by my
Secretary. "
"We have come to know that you were in a relation or
probably married?You are India's most eligible business woman, so we would like
to know who is that person? "
"Rubbish!Being a successful entrepreneur has nothing to do
with my personal life.I am just Ms.Arora."
Meanwhile, Dev,her associate gets a call from Mumbai.He
nervously goes near his MD and whispers something in her ears. She gets
worried.
"Excuse me Ladies and Gentleman,it's imporatant"
"But, Madam!please"
"Kritika ji,bataiye ki aisa kya ho gaya ki Ms.Arora aise hi
chali gayi?"(Kritika madam, we would like to know,what had happened)
"Please excuse us,no more questions,it's an emergency."
"Dev,mujhe waha jaana hoga,toh tum yahan sab kuch
sambhaalena."(I need to go there Dev,until then,
be here and take care of everything.)
"Sure ma'am."(He
leaves from there)
"Are you sure,tum jaana chahti ho?Teen saal ho gaya hai
tumhe unhe chhode.Magar aaj tak tum unki har khabar se waakif rakhti aayi
ho.Toh aaj achanak kyun?Tume ab kyun fark padne laga?(Are you sure that you
want to go?Three years have passed.Why you want to go there inspite of knowing
their well being,suddenly?Why now is THIS thing mattering a lot?)
"Fark padta hai Kritika.Aaj tak mera parivaar mere liye
hamesha maayne rakthi aayi hai.Unhe kuch takleef ho,toh mujhe hargiz manzoor
nahi.Mujhe wahan jaana hoga."(It matters to me Kritika.My family
has been my top priority.I can't bear their pain.)
"Soch lo"(Think again)
"Soch liya.(I have decided)Go get
my tickets booked for India"
"Ann! Get my stuff ready!"
The next day, at sharp eleven at
night, there races an Audi straight on the Mumbai roads from the Airport to the
building which read-----
"City
Hospital"
The lady mesmerisingly beautiful
in a modern sari,with lines of tension on her forehead, comes out of the car,
surrounded by the media and the papparazis.
"Miss Arora,aap yahan?Kya baat
hai, Madam rukiye!"(Ms.Arora, why are you here?Madam?Stop!)
"Please hat jaaiye, jaane
deejiye, madam ko"(Please let our madam go)
"Kritika ji aap bataiye,ki baat
kya hai."(Kritika ma'am please let us know what happened.)
"Please leave,everyone".Kritika shouts at the media.
The lady hurriedly walks into the
hospital.There she sees Purvi crying --
"Tum?Kaha thi itne din??"(she sobs a lot)
"SHHH!Rote nahi hai ".(Calm down dear...)
The lady hugs Purvi and consoles her.
Woh woh Daadi...(Our granny...)
Mujhe pata hai.Sab kuch theek ho jaayega.Ab main aa gayi
hoon na.Tu fikr mat kar. Hamari daadi teekh ho jayengi.(I know everything.All will be fine as I have
come back.You don't worry,Grandma will be fine)...
The doctor comes and asks to complete the formalities as
the patient needs a liver transplantation.The lady asks Kritika to complete the
formalities and pay the amount for the operation
Baaki sab kaha hain? (Where are others?)
Woh Maa,ghar pe hain, aur Badi Maa to dawaaiyan lene gayi
hai.(Mom is at home and Badi
Maa has gone to take her medicines)
Kaise hua yeh sab? (How did this all happen?)
Woh,woh...(hesitates)
Baat kya hai Purvi...Sab kuch sach sach batao mujhe.Koi ek
baat bhi chutni nahi chahiye.(What
is the matter, Purvi.Tell me everything. )
Darasal inn teen saalon mein daadi ne kuch zyaada hi pee li
hai...(Actually
in these 3 years,she has addicted to it)
Kya? Magar tum logon ne roka kyun nahi?(What?But why didn't you stop her?)
There comes a voice from behind.
Kyun aur kis haq se rokte hum unhe(Why would we stop her?)Tujhe ab yaad aaye ham? (Now you remember us?)
