HEARTFELT CONVERSATIONS
PART -1
"Doctor hua kya hain Priya ko? Ankhe kyu nahi khol rahi hain?…."
Ram was freaking out. He always wanted Priya to trust him enough, to confide in him, share her burden. But this way? No, not at all. To see her break down physically and emotionally right before his eyes was extremely painful. Priya had placed her entire trust upon him, before collapsing. Ram could not let her down.
"Priya ,Priya , pls ankhen kholo na. Dekho mere pocket me iss baar bhi tissue hain, par tum ho ki has hi nahi rahi ho. Pata hain na tumhare siwa mere jokes pe koi nahi hasta. Ankhe kholo na Priya pls. Doctor ,Meera maa, Priya uth kyun nahi rahi hain ? ( Ram had sent driver to fetch Meera after Priya passed out, he knew Priya needed mother’s tending. Only Meera can get her out of the guilt of having failed as a daughter)
Meera – "Ram, bachhe. Pls sambhaliye khud ko. Kuch nahi hoga usko. Bohot strong hain woh. Main jaanti hu. Bachpan se badi badi musibato ka bina dare samna kiya hain. Theek ho jayegi. Mai aa gayi hu na. Kuch nahi hoga."
Ram – "Yahi toh problem hai na Meera Maa. Strong hai , strong hai bol bol kar hum bhul jaate hain, ki woh bhi ek insaan hai. Wo bhi thak sakti hain, tuut sakti hain. Har baar expect karna ki woh apne aap khud ko sambhal legi ,is not fair. Kisi bhi insaan me itni taakat nahi hoti, ki puri zindagi , ek pahaad apne seene me lekar chal sake…………."
Doctor – “Ram, pls relax. It’s nothing serious. Aapki wife theek ho jayegi. Extreme stress aur dehydration ki wajah se achanak se BP bohot low ho gaya hain. Maine injection de diya hain. Thodi der mai hosh aa jayega. Bas inko stress nahi hona chahiye. Rest ki zaroorat hain. Koi bhi problem ho toh pls do call me. But nothing to worry as of now. Everything will be alright. “.
Ram – "Thank you Doctor. Meera Maa, aap yahi baithe rahiye Priya ke paas. Main unko neeche tak chod kar ata hun."
With that Ram went down to accompany the Doctor.
Meera seated herself closer to Priya, and gently caressed her forehead with as much motherly affection as possible. Priya showed a little movement. Meera clasped her hands.
“Priya, bacche , kisi cheez ki chinta mat kar. Main aa gayi ho na, teri sari shikayate dur kar dungi”
Priya feebly opened her eyes. Her head still heavy and dizzy. There was someone sitting next to her. The touch was very familiar, very warm, very loving. She couldn’t process it properly.
“Mr Kapoor, aap ….”
Meera – “ Priya tujhe hosh aa gaya. Bhagwaan ka laakh laakh shukar hain. Hum log kitna dar gaye the …………………………..”
Just then Ram returned. He was delighted to see Priya gain consciousness. But he chose to give mother-daughter some space. He stayed near the door hiding from her view.
“Kabhi socha nahi tha Priya, tumhari berookhi ke peeche, itna dard,itni taqleef chuppi hogi. Kabhi socha nahi tha ,ki iss strong,independent,bold chandi roop dharan karne wali ladki ke peeche ek itni soft, vulnerable pyaari ladki chuppi hain, jisko pata hi nahi hai ki woh kitni khaas hain.
Tumhe lagta hain, ki tum unlovable ho, kisi ke pyaar ke kabil nahi hon.. Nasamajh ho tum Priya, bohot nasamajh. Main tumhe kaise batau ki tum mere liye kya ho, kitni special, kitni important. Jaldi se theek ho jao Priya, bohot baate hain dil me jo tumhe batani hain……..”
Priya – “Maa, aap ? Aap yaha kya kar rahi hain ?"
Priya tried to get up. Meera helped her straighten up and put a pillow behind her to support her back.
“Maa mai bohut thak gayi hu . Mujhe koi behes nahi karni. Mr Kapoor kaha hain. Mujhe baat karni hain unse . Maa , kaha hain woh ?”
Ram hid himself. He was happy that Priya asked for him on waking up. But it was important for Priya and Meera to sort out.
Meera – “Unho ne hi mujhe bulaya hain. Bataya mujhe ki khud ko kaise kos rahi thi”
Priya (to herself) – “ Oh noo. Kya kya bol diya aaj maine unhe. Pata nahi kya soch rahe honge mere bare me. She tried recollecting, what all she had blabbered “.
“Maa , kya kaha Mr Kapoor ne aapse. Upset honge na. Maine aaj saari had paar kar di. Unke personal space ke bare main question kiya. Mujhe aisa nahi karna chahiye the. Maa pls bataye na, kya kaha unhone, she hugged Meera and started crying “.
“I am sorry Maa. Mujhe aap se aise baat nahi karni chahiye thi. I am sorry, mai aapki achhi beti nahi ban saki. I am sorry ki chaar betiyon ke hote hue bhi, aap ne khudko akela mehsoos kiya, aapko bete ki kami mehsoos hui”.
Meera hugged her and consoled her.
"Bilkul sahi kiya Ram ne mujhe bulakar. Pata nahi kya sochti rehti hain.
Priya tujhme koi kammi nahi hain bacche. Tu to meri sabse pyaari bacchi hain aur hamesha rahegi”.
“Yeh sach hai ki maine kaha tha ki Ram mere liye woh bete hi , jiski kammi mujhe zindagi bhar mehsoos hui hain. Lekin Priya maine aisa iss liya nahi kaha , kyunki mai apni betiyon ko bete se kam samjhti hun.
Mujhe mere pati ne sirf iss liye choda kyunki mai beta nahi de sakhi. Zindagi bhar tane sunne, par kya kabhi tum logo ko ehsaas hone diya ki tum kisi se kam ho. Apni taraf se puri koshish kari, ki tum logon ki education ke liye jitna paisa jod saku, utno jodu. Kabhi kisi se milne se, bahar jane se roka maine?. Kabhi koi kami rakhi ?
Priya nodded her head in negation.
“Par Priya tujhe ek baar khud ko meri jagah rakhna hoga. Shayad tu aaj nahi samjhegi. Kal agar teri beti hogi , to shayad tujhe samajh ayega. Priya chaar betiyon ki Maa hona aasaan to nahi. Sirf mai janti hun, ki maine har din bhagwan se kitni dua kari hain, ki meri bachiyon ko bina baap ki bacchiyan samjh kar, besahara samjhkar, koi nuksaan nah pohunchade. Tu toh Jhansi ki rani ban kar , haath me talwar leke ghar se nikal jati thi, kabhi bank walon se ladne, kabhi electricity walon se ladne, kabhi police station, kabhi college ke rayeez bigde hue ladko se ladne, lekin Priya jab tak tu ghar sahi salamat nahi pohunch jati thi , meri toh jaise jaan hi chali jati thi.
Kaise kaise khayal mere dimaak me ate the, ki tuh gusse me galat logo se dushmani na karle. Koi tujhe , nuksaan na pohuncha de.
Sab me teri jitni himmat nahi hoti Priya. Ghar me ek mard ka hone zaroori hain Priya. Duniye ke man me tabhi ek dar hota hain. Nuksaan pohunchane se pehle , kuch bhi bolne se pehle log sochte hain..
Jab bhi dekhti hun, ki Ram Shivina ka itna dhyaan rakthe hain. Toh yahi sochti hun, ki Akki toh humare saath rehne abhi aya hain, par agar tera koi saga bhai hota to tujhe choti choti cheezo ke liye bhi itne dhakke nahi khane padte.
Mujhe apni chinta nahi hai Priya, par Sara ki shaadi tutne ke baad me aur dar gayi thi. Agar tere papa, ek zimmendar insaan hote, humari zindagi ka hissa hote, toh kya usme Sara se battameezi karne ki himmat hoti?
Neeraj se sawaal puchne ke liye tere papa hote, toh kya usme utni himmat hoti, ki tujhe dhokha de sake. Usme utni himmat hoti ki teri behen ko bhaga kar shaadi kar sake.
Tu mane ya na mane Priya, par yahi sach hain ki ek mard ka saath hone se, zindagi ka safar aasan ho jaata hain.
Tujhme himmat toh bohut hain Priya, par kya iss samajh ne tujhe taqat di hain?”
Priya did not completely agree to what Meera said. But some parts of it did make sense. She recalled , how a man in a posh mall tried to pull her bag, in spite of her trying to explain him logically that security alarm had not rung. They had not checked any other woman , then why her ? But the man had not conceded. But as soon as he came to know, she was Mrs Ram Kapoor, his behavior, demeanor everything had changed. He became tongue tied, and even apologized.
There were numerous incidents in her life, when random men misbehaved. Sometimes while travelling in the local bus, sometimes in college, sometimes at random functions. She did not have the protection of a father, or a brother. She always fought for herself, raised voice against injustice , and would often threaten to call the police.
But all this while, never did she see a fear on the offender’s face, similar to the man in the mall, when he simply came to know that she was Mrs. Ram Kapoor.
She recollected another incident. When the annulment papers got leaked in the media, Meera was mobbed by them. Priya was dying to get her out of the mess. But even before she could react, Ram had gone to the temple, and safely taken Meera to his custody. He took her out of the media mob unscathed. Would she have been able to provide the same level of protection to her mom? She was not scared about anything, or anybody. She would have plunged into the mob, even risked her life and saved Meera. But would the media have paved way to her the same way they did for Ram?
No, not at all.
A) Ram was a man. B) He was rich, influential , a person of status and power.
Priya was neither, and this was the bitter truth. She and Ram can probably never be equals to the society. So if her mother who was an estranged wife, a mother of 4 daughters, with 2 useless son-in-laws, actually felt secure and protected with Ram in a way she never felt before, could she completely blame her?
Priya let out a sigh. Some things were beyond her comprehension…
Meera continued, “ Priya tu mera guroor thi, hain aur humesha rahegi. Tune jis samajhdari aur mehnat se humare ghar ko sambhala hain, mushkil se mushkil waqt main bhi kabhi himmat nahi haari, shayad koi bhi aur ladki nahi kar paati. Tera bina humara ghar toot jaata.
Aur haan sabse important baat, mai Ram se bohot pyaar karti huun, sirf isliye nahi ki woh ek bahut achhe inssan hain, mujhe unme apna beta dikhta hain, par sabse zyaada iss liye kyunki who meri sabse pyaari ziddi bachhi ka itna dhyan rakthe hain. Aaj bhi yahi baithe hue the tere paas. Unhone hi mujhe bulaya, ki mai teri taqleef kam kar sakun. Teri bohut phikr karte hain Priya.
Par agar tujjhe meri baat ka itna bura laga, to main dil se tujse maafi mangti huun. Phir kabhi aisa nahi bolungi.”
Priya – “Maa aap maafi mat maangiye. Meri galti hain. Mujhe overreact nahi karna chahiya tha. I am really sorry. Agar maine tanne sune hain, mushkile jheli hain toh apne mujhse kahi guna zyaada sahi hain. Aur aap meri hi nahi Mr Kapoor ki bhi Maa hain. Aap ke laad pyaar par unka bhi pura haq hain. Mujhe iss tarah se react nahi karna chahiye tha”.
Priya and Meera hugged each other and sorted out.
Ram being the emotional man, who was hiding like a cutie , could not control his tears anymore. He let out a small cry, which alerted Meera and Priya.
Meera – “Arrey Ram , aap darwase pe kya kar rahe hain? Priya ko hosh aa gaya hain. Ab yeh aapki zimmedari hain . Main isse aapke bharose chod kar jaa rahi hun”
With that Meera kissed Priya’s forehead and was ready to take their leave.
Ram – “Thank you Maa. Thank you so much . Aap itni raat ko humare liye ayi. Priya ko iss waqt aapke alawa koi nahi sambhal sakta tha . Mai aapko gaadi tak chod deta hun”.
Meera – “Nahi nahi Ram. Mai chali jaungi . Aap pls Priya ka dhyan rakhiye. Zyada tang kare to mujhe call kar dena. Achhe se daant laga dungi.. Abhi mai chalti hun”.
Ram – “Tarun. Taruuuun . Meera Maa ko dhyan se gadi tak chod do”
Meera left with Tarun, and finally Ram and Priya were alone in the room.
Will they open up about their feelings tonight?

PART - 2
Ram sat next to Priya, touched her forehead to check on the temperature.
“Tumne to aaj dara hi diya tha Priya. Ab kaisi ho ?”
Priya meekly nodded her head.
“Mr Kapoor, mujhe aap se baat karni hain”
“Haan Priya mujhe bhi bohut kuch kehna hain. Par aaj nahi. Tum bohot thak gayi ho. Kal baat karenge. Main paani lekar ata hun."
He just turned a little , to get her water that Priya held his hand.
“ I am really sorry Mr. Kapoor. Aapne pehle hi bol diya tha, ki aap phir kabhi pyaar nahi kar payenge. Mai bas uss waqt bohut tut chuki thi. I did not want to hurt you. Mujhe pata hain, woh apka personal space hain. Mujhe nahi puchna chahiya tha ,koi haq nahi hai mujhe….“
Ram – “Kuch bhi mat bolo Priya. Agar mujh pe kisi ka sabse zyada haq hain to woh tumhara hain. ”
Just then there was a knock at the door.
Ram – “ Kya hua Tarun ?Meera Maa ko bitha diya na car me?”
Tarun – "Sir, woh unhone ye kadha banaya hain . Kaha ki Priya Bhabhi ko dena hain. Isse unko achaa lagega."
Ram – “ Oh Achha theek hain. Thank you. Yaha rakh do”
Ram closed the door once Tarun left and inquisitively looked at the Kadha.
“Arrey ye to Meera Maa ke regular kadhe ki tarah nahi lag raha hain. Ye toh bohut tasty lag raha hain. Priya waise toh tumhare liye hain, par iska color toh bohot attractive hain. Main taste kar lun please”?
Priya was terrified.
“Nahi nahi Mr Kapoor. Iska taste bohot kadwa hoga. Aap nahi seh payenge. Bachpan se jab bhi mai bimar padti thi, Maa ye kadha banati thi. Trust me, aap nahi kha payenge."
Ram smirked.
“Achhaa Priya jee. Abhi thodi der pehle toh badi badi bate kar rahi thi. Aap sirf meri nahi Mr. Kapoor ki bhi Maa hain. Aapke laad pyaar par unka bhi utna hi haq hain. Ab kya hua, phir se wahi jalkukdi Priya ban gayi. Tum nahi chahti na Meera maa ka banaya hua yeh tasty khada mai taste karu ?”.
Priya – “Kuch Bhi. Mai jealous nahi hun,main sach keh rahi hun. Aap nahi kha payenge”
Foodie Ram was in no mood to listen. Before Priya could argue more , he quickly gulped a little bit of Kadha .
“Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.Uuwackkkkkkkkkkkk. Chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.Thuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. Kitna kharab haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii”.
He spit it out into a tissue paper.
“Ye kya kardiya Meera Maa apne ? Aapke hath ki koi bhi cheez itni kadwi kaise ho sakti hain……………………………………..?”
Priya could not stop laughing. She laughed her heart out seeing the weird expressions of Ram.
Ram –“Haan Haan hass loo. Apne pati ki halaat pe bohot hassi aa rahi hain na tumhe ”?
Priya – “Sorry. Par maine to aapko pehle hi warn kiya tha . Iss liye Mr Kapoor, patni ki baat sun leni chahiye”.
She continued laughing so hard, that tears started coming from her eyes.
Seeing her laughing, Ram became emotional. That was all he wanted . To see his Priya laugh , be happy and he took immense pride in the fact that only he and he alone had this special power in the entire universe.
He seated himself next to her in the bed and extended the kadha.
"Priya agar pata hota ki mere iss kadwe kadhe ko peene se tum itna hasogi, toh mai roz peene ke liye tayar hu."
Seeing Ram emotional, Priya teared up too.
“Yahi to problem hain Mr. Kapoor. Aap itne acche kyun hain? Kyun?”
She looked deep into his eyes, filled with gratitude.
Ram - “Arrey aise kya dekh rahi ho. Itna bhi acha nahi hun. Agar tumhe lagta hain ki aisi meethi meethi baate karke, mujhe maska laga ke kadha peene se bach jaogi, to tumhe bilkul galat lagta hain. Kadha toh peena padega".
Priya – “Arrey . Mai kyu kisiko maska lagane lagi. Mujhe kadha peene se bilkul dar nahi lagta. She snatched the glass from his hand and gulped it literally in one go.”
Ram was shell shocked. That was insane. It was just not possible. How could she do it?
“Priya ,aise kaise ek baar me pee liya. Mujhe laga nakhre karogi, aur mujhe bhi life me pehli baar tumhe taunt karne ka mauka milega. Priya tumhe kadwi cheezo se bilkul dar nahi lagta kya?"
Priya – “Bilkul nahi. Balki mujhe to zaroorat se zyada methee cheezon se dar lagta hain. Taste toh meetha hota hain, par andar hi andar aapke shareer ko kamzor aur khokla kar deta hain. Aur ek din jab aapko realize hota hai ki aapke health ke liye yeh achaa nahi hain, tab tak uski aadaat lag jati hain, aur chodna mushkil ho jata hain. Isse achha to yeh kadwi cheeze hoti hain. Bhale hi kadwa ho, par iski sachayi samne hain. Iske do chehre to nahi hote. Samne se meetha, aur peeth peche apke health ko kharab kar de.."
Priya pointed her fingers towards her throat and said “ Mr Kapoor, bas yahi tak ka toh struggle hain, par uske baat sab theek ho jata hain. Zindagi ho ya, kadha mujhe kadwi cheeze peene ki aadat hain”.
Ram was baffled. This girl could lecture on anything and everything. But this was more than a rant. Ram could sense pain oozing out from it. She was so used to swallowing the bitter pill in life, that bitterness of a medicine was of course negligible. It was rather, goodness, sweetness , compliments and affection that scared her.
Ram – “ Ek to bimaar ho. Phir bhi mujhe taunt kar rahi ho. Mujhe zaroorat se zyada meetha bol rahi ho na. Mujhe meethi churi bolrahi ho indirectly, very bad Priya”
Priya – “Arrey, main toh kadhe ke bare mai bol rahi thi. Aapne khud par kyu le liya ?. Aap zaroorat se zyada meethe zaroor hain, par aapki mithaas bohat alag hain, bohot different.
Ram – “Woh, kaise ?”
Priya – “Aapki mithaas unhealthy nahi hain, uske do chehre nahi hain. Aapki mithas toh bohot innocent hain, bohot pyari, pure, magical. Uss me healing powers hain. Apne bachpan me churning of Milk Ocean yani Samudra manthan ki kahaniyaan to suni hi hogi na ?"
Ram – “Haan sunni hai. Uska mujse kya relation?”
Priya - “Usme vish, aur sare ratno ke nikalne ke bath, last me amrit-nectar of immortality nikalta hain, aapki mithaas waisi wali hain. Na jane kaun kaun se zakhm bhar deti hain.”
Ram – Ahem. Ahem !!!! Starts coughing .
“Priya itni meethe baate karogi, toh mujhe bhi tumhari tarah meethee cheezo ka phobia ho jayega. Tumhari muh se apne liye itni meethe tareef hazm nahi ho rahi hain. Mera digestion pill kaha hain ? Priya yahi ruko , main zara digestion pill dhundkar ata hun..”
Priya – “Har waqt mazaak karna zaroori hain kya Mr Kapoor? Mujhe aapse zaroori baat karni hain. I am really sorry . Mujhe pata hai ki apke life me pyar ki phir se jagah nahi hain. I know mujhe koi haq..”
Ram placed his fingers on her lips and shushed her.
“Priya maine kaha na agar kisi ka mujh pe sabsa zyada haq hain , toh woh tum ho . Mai abhi jo kehne jaa raha hun, pata nahi uske baad tum kaise react karogi, par mera tumhe aaj sab kuch sach sach batana bohot zaroori hain”.
“Haan , yeh sach hain ki maine tum se kaha tha ,ki iss janam mai mere dil ke darwaze nahi khulenge. Infact 5 mahine pehle jab bhi Adi ya koi bhi mere saath mazak karta, ki jab teri shaadi hogi na tab pata chalega, toh mai unko yahi jawab deta tha ki - Apni toh naiya nikal chuki hain. Iss toofan mai yeh kashti akeli ghumegi,mast maula ban kar ."
Maine apne akelepan ko accept kar liya tha. Mai apne ek darfa pyar ke saath khush tha. Par phir tum meri zindagi mai ayi . Kab hua , kaise hua mujhe nahi pata , par dekte hi dekte tum mere life ka centre ban gayi. Kabhi socha nahi tha ki aise achanak ek khadoos masterni ayegi jo khud toh black and white hone ka dawa karegi, par meri zindagi ko khushiyon se ,rango se bhar degi.
Jab se tum meri life main ayi ho na, tabse sirf tum ho, kuch aur sujhta hi nahi. Din bhar jab office me hota hun, Adi, Kunal, Vikrant in sab ke saath hota hu,tabh yahi bolta hun, ki tum log na ekdum nalayak ho. Agar Priya yaha hoti na, to mere jokes pe hasti. Sirf usko mere jokes ki value pata hain.
Jab koi security guard mere liye darwaza kholta hain, to do minute rukh kar, usse dil se Thank you bolta hun . Kyunki Priya hoti to aisa karti. Office mai milne wale har snacks ko touch karne se pehle , kaano main apne aap tumhari awaaz gunjti hain. Mr Kapoor, ye mat khayiega, woh mat khayiega, BP bad jayega…
Tumhari daant ki awaz jab yaad ati hain na, apne aap hi chehre pe ek smile aa jati hain. Kyunki shayad tumse pehle kabhi kisi ne meri itni parwah kari hi nahi.
Jab bhi wine glass se kisi ko cheers bolta hun, to apne aap hi hassi nikal jati hain. Adi to hasne lagta hain, kehta hain, peene se pehle hi chad gayi kya Ram?
Ab main usse kya batau. Ki mujhe woh cute Priya yaad aa jati hain, jisse ek glass me hi chad gayi thi, aur jo mangalsutra ke lame jokes maar rahi thi..
Priya tum saath na hote hue bhi ,har waqt mere saath hi hothi ho, mere paas hoti ho,bohut kareeb.
Isse pehle maine kabhi kisiko khud ke itna kareeb mehsoos nahi kiya hain.
Priya tumhe pata hain , tumhare ane se pehle mai office me late night tak rukne ke bahane dhundtha tha, par ab ghar jaldi jaane ke dhundne laga hun. Pata hai kyu??
Kyunki, ab me akela nahi mehsoos karta. Mujhe pata hain ki khaali chair ke saath khana nahi khana padega. Tum dining table pe mera wait kar rahi hogi, ya phir wait karte karte table par hi so gayi hogi. Aur tumhare ye joh baal hain na , he said pointing towards a hairlock which was trying to cover her eyes, Haan bas yahi, ye jo baal tumhare ankho ko chupane ki koshish karta hain usko main pyar se aisa hatha dunga, Ram tucked that stubborn hair to the back of her ear.
Priya tum na meri zindagi me ane wali sabse alag, sabse special ladki ho. Bilkul ek paheli ki tarah. Mai jitni bhi ladkiyon se mila hun, sab fairy tales ki baate karte the. Sab wait karte the, ki ek din ek prince charming ayega , usse le jayega , aur uski saari problems ko apna bana lega.
Par tum toh bilkul aisi nahi ho Priya. Meri biwi ho tum. Mere paison par, mujh par , sabse zyada haq tumhara hain, par aaj tak ek cheez nahi maangi tumne mujhse.
Mera dhyan rakhti ho, mujhe himmat deti ho, ki mujhe khush hone ke liye kisi ki zaroorat nahi hain, medicines ki toh bilkul nahi. Mere medicines ko tumne literally adha kar diya Priya.
Mujhe aur mere medicines ko aaj tak koi alag nahi kar paya. Adi-Brinda bhi nahi, par tumne toh woh bhi kar diya Priya. Aaj tak mere health ki ,medicines ki Mom ne , Shivi ne , Shubhu ne kisi ne itni parvah nahi kari, par anjaan ladki hone ke baad bhi tumne parwah kari.
Tumhe pata hain, mujhe na dusron ki wishes fulfill karna, unke chehre pe smile lana bohut achaa lagta hain. Aur yeh bohot asaan kam bhi hain mere liye. Shubhu ko apni luxury car de dunga toh uske chehre pe smile ati hain, Shivina ke liye adhi raat me cup cakes launga toh uske chehre pe smile ati hain, Mom ko jab apne new business ka inauguration karne bolta hun, unke chehre pe smile ati hain. Par humare sangeet ke din, Shivi ne mujse promise liya ki tumhare chehre pe mujhe smile lani hogi. Main samajh hi nahi paa raha tha, ki kya karu jisse tum smile karogi. Phir tumhare charity ki baat yaad ayi.
NGO ke blind students ko perform karta dekh , tumhare chehre pe joh smile, joh sukoon tha na, mujhe tumhara who chehra aaj tak yaad hain. Kitni ajeeb baat hain na Priya, kabhi na hasne wali ladki, dusron ko khush dekh kar hasti hain. Shayad tumne mera dil uss din hi jeet liya tha..
Har din tum mujhe suprise karti ho Priya.
Pyaar me vishwas na karne wali ladki , do pyaar karne wale logon ko milane ke liye apne jaan ko risk me daalke paneer kha leti hain, jisse usko fatal allergy hain.
Aur kya kaha tha tumne aaj, ki tum nahi ho itni attractive ki tumhe samne dekh kar kisi ke dil ki dhadkan bad jaye?
Arrey jaa kar pucho Brinda se, tumhe samne dekh kar mere dil ka kya haal hota hain. Roz roz mujhe chidati hain, ki kaise ghurta huun mai tumhe.
Aur bhi kuch kaha tha tumne. Kya bola tha ?
Haaan !!
Har ladki Manish Malhotra ki model ki tarah nahi dikh sakti . Haan bilkul sahi baat hain. Par tum to intelligent ho na, to mere ek question ka jawab do.
Manish Malhotra ki designer dresses main, glamorous makeup mai toh koi bhi ladki sundar dikh sakti hain, par kya mere Priya ke saadhe kapdo main, no makeup look main, center partitioned pony tail me bhi kya har ladki sundar lag sakti hain? Khaas kar woh ladkiyaan jisse tum Manish Malhotra ki model bolti ho?
Toh zyada sundar kaun hua Priya, tum ya woh?
Tumhe pata hain mere Dad kya bolte the Priya ?- ‘Ek sundar shareer, achhe charitra ka shringaar hota hain, bure charitra ka dhakkan nahi'.
Aur tumhara man toh itna sundar hain Priya, tumhe make up ki, glamorous dresses ki bilkul zaroorat nahi hain. Tum jaisi bhi hon, mujhe badi achhi lagti hon. Mere liye to tum hi iss duniya ki sabse sundar ladki hon, shakal se bhi aur dil se bhi".
Tears welled up in Priya’s eyes. How come no one ever told her such a definition of beauty. Not even her Mom. Her mom ,sisters always forced her to smile, to deck up, to wear vibrant clothes, to behave like a girl, but here was a man, The Ram Kapoor, calling her the most beautiful woman of his life, accepting her, adoring her for who she was.
Was she actually beautiful, or was it the fact that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder?
Nevertheless, it did not matter anymore. For the first time ever Priya genuinely felt beautiful. Ram’s words were healing some age old scars.
Priya – “Mr Kapoor, par aap toh kisi aur se pyaar karte the na …”
Ram – "Priya main nahi janta ki joh tumhare liye mehsoos karta hun, wahi sacha pyaar hai toh itne saal jisse main sacha pyar samjhta tha woh kya tha?
Shayad mujhe pyaar ke concept se pyaar tha. Par sahi matlab me pyaar kya hota hain,usse kaise nibhate hain, ye maine tum se sikha hain. Jo jagah, jo izzat dil me tumhare liye hain, woh kisi aur ke liye nahi hain, na kabhi thi aur na kabhi ho sakti hain.
Joh dil tumhare liye mehsoos karta hain, woh aaj se pehle kabhi kisi ke liye mehsoos nahi kiya hain. Joh sukoon mujhe tumhare saath reh kar milta hain, woh kisi aur ke saath kabhi nahi mila.
Mujhe pata hain, tum mere liye shayad waisa mehsoos nahi karti ho. Tum bohot thak chukki ho zindagi se , pyaar se. But I am ready to wait for you. Tumhe jitna time chahiye, I am ready, par please kabhi mujhe chod kar mat jana.
Priya tumne meri dawayio ki buri aadat chudwadi par ek achhi adaat lagwa di. Puchogi nahi kaunsi?"
Priya (With tears in her eyes) – “Kaunsi?”
Ram –" Tumhari . Priya mujhe tumhari adaat lag gayi hain . Tumhare bina ab meri life incomplete hain. Meri iss acchi aadat ko nahi chudwaogi na Priya? Bolo na ? Iss adat ke bina main ab nahi jee paunga.
Priya placed her fingers on his lips and shushed him. She leaned forward and hugged him tightly .
Ram could not understand what was happening. It was so sudden.
“Main aapko bohot chahti hun Mr Kapoor. Bohot zyada. Mai apko khone se jitna darti hun,shayad hi kabhi kisi ke liye dari hun . Par ye baat mai aapko kaise kehti? Kyunki mujh me ye khud accept karne ki himmat nahi thi, jo khud se hi kabhi nahi keh payi, aaj bina kisi dar ke aap se kehti hu, “ I love you a lot Mr. Kapoor” . Bohot koshish kari , ki apne pyaar ko apne gusse , apni berookhi aur taunts ke peeche chupa saku. Par nahi ho paya. Main haar gayi .Ab aur aapse kuch chupane ki himmat nahi hain,aur main chupana chahti bhi nahi hun.
Aapko pata hain, mujhe rote hue kabhi kisi ne nahi dekha hoga. Meri behno ne bhi nahi, yaha tak ki Maa bhi nahi. Un sab ke samne, puri duniya ke saamne mere liya humesha hee I'm Okay, I'm fine , yeh pretend karna bohot hi asaan raha hain.
Par aapke samne me aisa chah kar bhi nahi kar pati Mr.Kapoor. Aaj nahi , hamesha se aisa hi hain. Jab aap mere liye ek stranger the, tab bhi aisa hi hota tha.
Aapko yaad hain, jab humari Kunal ki baat par ladayi hui thi, mai uss din kahi saal baad baarish me bheegi thi.
Yaad hain jab aapki mom, humara rishta lekar ayi thi. Aur mai baarish me bheeg the hue aap se ladne ayi thi.
Aap mere liye tab sirf ek stranger the, phir bhi mai aapke saamne ro padi thi.
Pata nahi aap samne hote hain, tu mujhe kya ho jaata hain Mr.Kapoor .
I don't think I have ever been this comfortable with anyone else.....
Shayad apki sachayi, humdardi, apnepan ke aage mai theek hone ka dikhawa nahi kar sakti. Na kabhi kar payi hun, aur na hi kabhi kar paungi.
Aaj maine apne past ki har baat ko aapke saath share kiya. Meri tabiyat bigad gayi, par aap ne mujhe ek baar bhi judge nahi kiya, ek second ke liye bhi mujhe akela nahi choda.
Agar iske baat bhi main aapko khud se door rakhungi, to mujse zyaada bewakoof insaan koi aur nahi hoga.
Maine apko dil se apna humsafar maan liya hain. Apke har sukh dukh ko main share karna chahti hun.Aur apne har sukh dukh ko bhi aapke saath share karna chahti hu. I trust you more than anybody else Mr. Kapoor.
Mujhe apni feelings share karni nahi aati,par apni puri zindagi aapke saath share karne ke liye ready hun. Aasan nahi hain mere liye, par aap saath he toh namumkin bhi nahi hain”
Priya’s tears made Ram’s shirt wet.
Ram – “Arrey madam ro ro kar, phir bimaar padne ka iraada hain kya ?”
He hugged her back as tightly as possible.
His tears were making her Kurta wet.
"Aap bhi toh ro rahe hain na Mr Kapoor ?"
Ram laughed.
"Shayad issliye humari shaadi hui hain. Taki ek dusre ko khushi ke mare rula sake "
Priya – “Bohot hi bura joke tha Mr Kapoor”.
Ram – “ Par tum hassi na ,andar se ?”.
Priya smiled. How could his jokes not work on her. He kissed her forehead and pulled her closer, she snuggled deeper into him. Both were lost in each other’s warmth.
Priya’s touch was healing Ram from his years of loneliness. His love, his affection was melting all the walls she had fortified herself with. There was no more barrier between them.
Thus these two beautiful souls , who fit into each other’s life just like two pieces of jigsaw puzzle finally found solace in each other.
The moonlight peeped from the curtain and gently touched their faces as if blessing them with abundant love and happiness.
The sunlight was eagerly waiting to bless them too. From tomorrow , it was a new beginning of their married life..
