I am sorry. I have not been able to be active in the forum for long time. I have had some family issues taking toll on my mental health. But now as I binge watched Tujhse hai raabta I got inspired to pen somethimg down. I hope I will be welcomed back.

I love her,
And thats the beginning,
And the end of everything.

MALHAR had thought that he had suffered a heart break when Sampada had left but now when his Kalyani was claiming to be someone else's, he realized what breaking of heart actually meant. What he had felt when Sampada had left was a mere cut compared to this infinite turmoil going in his heart. He was angry, hurt, and many other things but mostly he was frustated. Malhar had spent days with the goons just with the thought of returning back home with the family he had built, his Kalyani and Moksh. This time he wanted to return and just collapse in her arms, matching his heart beat with hers and forever resting in the beautiful symphony they had created. But alas fate had different plans. Malhar should have guessed that Rachit was no saint. He had came with an agenda and the agenda being the best thing that life had offered Malhar.
He could have handled anything but the fact that the Rachit had asked for his angel whom he had fallen irrevocably in love with. He knew Kalyani was not doing this willingly, there must be some reason for her act but what, he was yet to know. Malhar could swear on the fact that his Kalyani was as in love with him as he was with her. He could see that in her eyes, the way her voice quivered when he was close to her, the way her eyes would glance into his searching and yearning, and mostly importantly in the way she cared for him, the way she would move heavens and hells for him. But why was she so adamant in breaking the relationship with him, he knew it must be something big.
Malhar spent the day in the vicinity of his room thinking and pondering on what could be enough to provoke Kalyani into Rachit and Sampada's bidding. Why was the girl who could look into the face of death for her loved once do anything to hurt them? It didn't make sense to him? What could Rachit hold against her? Kalyani was strong he knew but for loved ones he knew how she could become. So he thought and thought and thought and reached to the conclusion that it must be for a loved one too. And Malhar knew what he had to do. So he picked up his phone and called one person who could clear his dilemma.
"Mai, kya aap mujhe kal subha police station mein mil sakti hain. Kisiko bina bataye. Please, Mai mein aapke aage haath jodhta hun. Bas ek baar mujhse mil lijiye."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ANUPRIYA never had anyone in her life who had loved her and whom she loved. For long she had considered herself to be the scorned woman that the fates laughed upon but god had a different plan altogether. The fates had given her a daughter someone she loved and doted upon. Kalyani was her saving grace and although they were not bonded by blood, her heart pinched when the girl cried. Her heart bleed with hers if anything troubles her. So when Malhar called her she decided to take matters into her own hand and with this new found determination, she marched into the police station.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It had been a week since Malhar had got to know of the truth and with every ounce of patience that resided in his body he had resisted the urge to smash Rachit's head into the wall and then have a nice chat with Kalyani about how stupid she was and then finally take her into his arms and never let go. But he had to keep silence because he was a father as well and he had to find out what was wrong with him before taking any major action. And now the reports had arrived and it was time to show Sampada and Rachit what Aurangabaad ka Singham could do for his family. It was time to give them a reality check that Malhar and Kalyani and their Moksh were a single entity and nothing could separate them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MALHAR entered the house with a mission to accomplish.
"KALYANI! KALYANI! BAHAR AAYO"
"Aap shayad bhool rahe hai ACP sahab ki Kalyani aapki patni nahi rahi jo aaise use bula rahai hai." Rachit smugly tried to stop Malhar.
"Us din kuch bola nahi kyunki mai Kalyani k liye parishaan thha. Par tu shayad bhool gaya hai ki divorce final tabhi hota hai jab ek court hearing hoti hai aur mujhe toh yaad nahi hai ki kaab mai aur Kalyani court gaye. Toh abhi bhi mein pure hak se pure hak se meri patni ko bula sakta hoon." Malhar seethed in anger and then seeing the entire family in the room he went towards Kalyani and gave her the reports.
"Padho ise."
After going through the content Kalyani looked towards Malhar, "Yaniki mere Pillu ko kuch nahi hua. Mera bachha thik hai. Bappa ka lakh lakh shukar hai."
"Tum pagal ho ya aakal nahi hai. Kohi bhi aakar tumhe kuch bhi kehdega toh tum manlogi Kalyani. Duniya mein ek hi doctor nahi hai recheck karwa sakti thhi par nahi madam ko jo mahaan banna thha."
"Malhar mein keh raha hun chhod use Kalyani mujhse pyaar karti hai, haina Kalyani. Tum sach mein mujhse pyaar karti ho na. Bataao use."
"Rachit tujhe aur haan Sampada ko ek baat puri tarha se clear kardoon. Ki Kalyani meri aur mein Kalyani ka hoon. Isse aage mera aur kohi sach nahi hai. Mein kisi aur ko apnaun yeh namumkin hai. Toh agar tu ne aur ya phir kisi ne bhi humein alag karne ki kosis ki na toh phir Malhar Rane jaan lene se katraega nahin."
"Aur haan ek baat Sampada aage se Moksh ke kareeb aayi toh bakhubi jaanti ho ki Malhar Rane kya kya kar sakta hai." "Pawar hathkadi lekar aao."
"Rachit tumhe Naxaliyon ke sath sammelit hone, forced marriage, blackmail, emotional torture aur fraud ke jurm mein giraftaar kiya jata hai."
Rachit had taken off with the police and Sampada had yet again returned back to her home with her aai and what she didn't know was that Aparna had had enough of her villainous tactic and was sending her somewhere else.
Even with all the storm gone there was the aftermath that had to be faced and Kalyani knew she had been stupid in her venture. So with a determination she entered her room that she had left merely few days ago. Malhar was sitting in a corner just staring out the window. Kalyani moved towards him without knowing what to do or say.
"Malhar ji I am sorry! Mujhe aapko sab kuch bata dena chahiye thha."
"Jis insan pe tum bharosa hi nahi karti use sorry kyun keh rahi ho."
"Malhar ji aaisa kuch nahi hai aap jante hai ki Pillu ki baat thhi aur mai ..."
"Aur mein kya Kalyani? Tum bhool gayi toh yaad dila doon ki mein bhi tumhara Pillu ka kuch lagta hoon. Agar mere bache ko kuch hua hai tumhe nahi lagta ki janne ka hak mujhe bhi hai. Bhagwan ka shukar hai ki use kuch hua nahi hai par hua hota aur use operation ya kuch aur chij ki jarurat hoti toh tum kya karti. Tabh toh mujhe batana padhta."
"Mein gussa bhi nahi hoon bas hurt hoon ki tum mujhe is layak bhi nahi samajhti ki mein apne bache ke liye right decision le sakta hoon."
"I am sorry, Malhar ji. Aap jante hai ki mein Pillu se kitna pyaar karti hoon. Bas wohi reason hai meri is pagal panti ki."
"Yeh samajhta hoon isliye toh jyada der gussa nahin reh sakta. Aur tum kudh kehti ho ki there is no Kalyani without Malhar aur tum kaise nahin samajhti ki there is no Malhar without Kalyani as well."
"Ab samajh aagaya and kabhi bhi aapse dur nahin jaungi. I promise."
"Malhar ji.... waise aap Sampada ke saath ek hi bistar pe soye." Kalyani asked with an unsure voice glancing at the bed.
"Haan. Aise use aapne bahon mein lekar soya. Sampada kubhsurat hai haina Kalyani?" Malhar said sliding his arms around Kalyani and pulling her closer towards him. With Kalyani's chest pressed against Malhar.
"Bilkul chalakh lomdi ki tarah." Kalyani said hitting Malhar's chest.
"Majak kar rahahun Kalyani. Par haan ek baat batana chahatahun."
"Batane ke liye aap ko permission ki kya jarurat."
"Us jageh mein sochne ke liye bohot samay thha aur shayad isi soch mein ek chij realize ki maine ki zindagi bohot chhoti hai Kalyani aur agai mein us bhakht marjatato..."
"Malhar ji ese marne warne ki baatein mat kijiye."
"Kalyani agar mein us bhakht mar jata toh mera sabse bada gam yeh hota ki meine tumse aapni dil ki baat kabhi khul kar ki hi nahi. Tumhe kabhi meine teh nahin bataya ki tumhari yeh zulfein, tumhari yeh aakhein, tumhara astitwa, tum kitni khoobsurat lagti ho. Ki jab bhi tumhe dekhta hoon toh mere dil ki dadhkane tej ho jati hain. Jab bhi tum aas paas hoti ho toh meri rooh ko sukoon milta hai Kalyani." Malhar said with his one hand on her waist and another cupping her face.
"Aur jaanti ho aaisa kyun hota hai, kyunki yeh dil tumse pyaar karne laga hai Kalyani."
Kalyani couldn't remember a single moment in her life where she was as happy as she was now. With so many emotions she couldn't and didn't want to stop the tears flowing through her eyes.
"Malhar ji, shayad mein chhoti hun aur meine duniya nahin, mein bohot kuch nahin janti aur shayad thodi stupid bhi hoon. Par mein itna janti hoon ki mein aap ke saath apni zindagi bitana chahti hoon. Mein nahin janti ki pyaar kaisa hota hai par itna maan ti hoon ki jo mein feel kar rahi aap ke liye aap ke saath ise pyaar k alawa koi aur shabdh bayan nahin kar sakta. I LOVE YOU, MALHAR JI.
"I LOVE YOU TOO, KALYANI."
Malhar brought his lips to hers. He couldn't help but want to peck those lips that claimed to love him. It was nothing but innocent. For the world it was an innocent little kiss but for them it was the start to a beautiful life. They were sealing the deal again moulding into each other this time for all the right reasons.
