A small Error
Chaptet one
Tarika came out from bathroom, totally frustrated. She threw the towel on bed and sat down on other side of the bed away from Abhijeet. Abhijeet, who was reading a magazine half lying on bed shifted his attention towards her.
"Tumne bhiga towel bed pe rakha! Wo! Meri toh jan le leti tuum agar aisa karta toh."
Tarika looked at him, angrily. Abhijeet concentrated on his magazine again. She's not in a good mood tonight. Tarika stood up and placed the towel on it's rightful place. She moved towards the dressing table and started applying her night moisture cream on her hands and legs. Abhijeet watched her in awe.
"Tum yaha kya kar rahe ho? Mana kia tha na maine tumhe ane se." Tarika asked, annoyed.
"oh.. haan.." coming from his dreamland he asked, "kya.. kya keh rahi thi tum?"
Tarika turned to face him.
"Yaha ku ai? Mana kia tha na. Mera mood bilkul nahi hai. Tum ja sakte ho."
"Thik hai mood nahi hai. Mujhe laga tum upset ho kisi baat se. Aise chiri chiri rehti ho... isliye bus a gaya. I thought to make you feel better."
Tarika moved towards him and sat beside him, facing him.
"Koi badmashi nahi thik hai?"
"Thik hai baba. Mujhe pata hai tum mood mei nahi ho. But tum etna irritated ku ho? Sab thik hai na?"
"Aisi koi bat nahi hai. Thik hai sab."
Abhijeet showing the tube in her hand asked,
"May I help?"
"Nahi.. ho gaya."
She again went to dressing table.
Tarika started moving things on the dressing table, one after the other.
"Kaha Gayein... Yahi toh rakhein the."
Abhijeet decided against saying anything. He pretended to be busy reading the magazine.
Tarika now started frantically removing things from the table and kept them on the floor.
Abhijeet was confused with her behaviour.
"Abhi toh utarein the... Kaha Gayein... Iss Ghar mein sab kho jaata hai - kuch apni jagah pe Nahi rehta." Tarika complained, "I'm sure yahi rakhein the meine."
She looked around the entire room, irritated. Her eyes rested on the magazine Abhijeet was reading.
She swiftly moved towards him and grabbed the magazine from his hands.
"Aur tum - aadhi cheezein toh tumhe galat jagah pe rakhte ho. Ye bedroom koi jagah hai magazine padhne Ka?"
"Nahi mein toh.."
"Nahi tum toh bas padh rahe the... Aur padhne ke baad yahi Kahi chhodke chale jaate," she muttered as she walked to the living room.
Abhijeet followed her.
After keeping the magazine in the stand, she bumped into him.
"uff... Ye Kutto ki tarah tum mujhe follow kyu Kar rahe ho harr jagah?"
"Kutta Kaha!" Abhijeet thought.
To make it worse, he could imagine Daya - laughing hysterically at the situation.
"Arrey magar tum dhoondh kya rahi ho?"
"Tumse matlab?"
"Arrey ... Mein aapki madat Kar dunga dhoondhne mein." He asked, sweetly.
"Toh khud hi Soch lo ki kya dhoondh rahi Hu mein."
"Ye Kaha fass Gaya!" He thought again.
"M-m-mujhe kaise pata Hoga?" He asked.
Tarika kept both her index fingers on either ears.
"itna Bhi Nahi notice Kar sakte tum. Earrings dhoondh rahi Hu"
"Kal subah dhoondh lena."
"Nahi I want them now." Tarika said, stubbornly.
Abhijeet wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Raat ko earrings pehen'ne ki kya zaroorat hai? Aap kahein toh kuch aur Bhi utar- *aah woooh*"
Abhijeet winced in pain as she stamped his foot.
"Bola tha na irritate mat Karna."
"Ahuu.. toh marke samjhane ki kya jarurat thi.. damn!"
Tarika left for her room without paying attention to him.
She again searched the whole room.
"Kya kar rahi ho yaar." Abhijeet asked entering into the room
Tarika didn't answer. Abhijeet held her by her shoulders and made her to sit on bed.
"Tum yaha beitho.. chupchap. Earrings mai mai dhun deta hu. Okay?"
"Nahi milenge tumhe.. mujhe hi nahii mil rahe."
"Don't underestimate the power of senior Inspector Abhijeet."
Tarika rolled her eyes. Abhijeet smiled.
He searched her drawers first.
"Nahi hai waha.. dekha maine."
"Ab mai dekhta hu.. yahi pe rakhti ho tum apne jewelries na."
"Nahi hai.."
"Ye kya hai?" showing her a pair of earrings, "Yahi dhun rahi thi na?"
Tarika marched towards him and snatched that away.
'Tumhi ne rakkha hoga... mai earrings is drwer mei nahi is drawer mei rakhti hu."
"kamal hai, ab dhun diya to bhi bhaeal rahi ho?"
"Tumhi ne galat jagah pe rakah hai toh tumhi dhunni ge na.."
"Tumne pi rakhi ha kya?"
"Bakwas band karo or hato yaha se."
She pushed him aside.
"Ab rakh ku rahi ho? peheno na."
"mood chala gaya mera ab"
"Ye pagla gai hai. 100%." Abhijeet thought.
"Jake so jao."
"Tum khuturfutur karogi room mei light jalake toh nind keisey aigi!"
"Guest room mei jake sone ko bol rahi hu."
"Mai ku guest room mei sou! etna bara bed hai yaha pe!"
" Phirse shuru ho gai!"
"Arey nahi.. dhett.. huya kya hai tumhe? Etni chir chir ku rahi ho?" he asked in tough voice.
"Tumse matlab!"
"Phir eki baat."
"Tumhe nahi pata mai ku irritate rehti hu iswaqt?"
"Ku? Ajeeb hai yaar. Ab toh tumhare period bhi khatam ho gaya hoga.. phir bhi chirchir kar rahi ho."
"Abhitak start nahi huye."
"Kya! Par its like one week from your date!"
"wahi toh! Ab mujhe is liye bohot jayada irritation ho raha hai.. Arrggghhh..."
"Oh God! Tum larkia bhi na! Yaar ab late ho raha hai toh etna drama kar rahi hoo... pata nahi pregnant hogi toh kya karogi! Tumhara ye mood- * He stopped, thinking, "Damn! Is she pregnant."
"Pehle kyu Nahi bataya tumme!" He asked.
"kaisi baqwas baatein Kar rahe ho tum? Bada Aaya mood Acha Karne!"
"Nausea hota hai tumhe aaj kal? Fatigue?"
"Jatana kya Chahte ho tum!"
Without paying heed to her words Abhijeet opened the calendar in his phone and started calculating something.
"ye... Protection Bhi 100 percent Nahi hota na?"
Tarika, pointing to the leg she had stamped asked,
"Ab dard toh Nahi ho Raha tumhe?"
"Nahi toh... Kyun?"
Tarika gave him a fake smile and stamped his leg again.
"aah..." He held his leg, "kya Kar rahi ho?"
"Jyaada zor se maar Diya?"
"Aur Nahi toh?"
"Bahot Acha kiya."
She patted her own shoulder and said,
"Good job Tarika!"
"Itne saalo mein itne mood swings Nahi dekhein... Ye toh pregnant hi hai!" He thought
"Ab mujhe ghur kya rahe ho! Kitchen mein jaakar kuch banake lao... Bhook lagi hai mujhe."
"Hunger cravings Bhi hai!"
"kya Kaha?" She narrowed her eyes on him.
"Nahi wo... Puch Raha tha.. kya khaogi?"
"Kuch Bhi."
"Pasta?"
"Nahi not pasta"
"Umm... Noodles?"
"Nahi na! Something sweet."
"Mithai lau?"
"Itna Bhi sweet Nahi."
"Kheer Bana du?"
"Nahi... Not milky!"
"Ughhhh... Toh kya Karu? Pehle bolti ho kuch Bhi... Lekin kuch bolta Hu toh Nahi...! "
"Iss se Acha guest room mein so hi jaata mein." Abbijeet thought.
"Tum rehne doh." said Tarika.
"Arrey magar.."
Tarika threw a cushion at him.
"Isse le jao aur so jao."
"Isse kyu lekar jau?"
"Kyuki mujhe Nahi dekhne ye."
"Arrey cushion ne kya Kiya?"
"Abhijeet tum thodi Der chup Nahi reh sakte? Kabse dimang khaa rahe ho Mera!"
"Mein dimang khaa Raha Hu?" He thought, "Ulta Chor kotwal ko daante!"
"Jao na.."
"Thik hai.. " he stood up.
"Ja rahe ho?"
"Tumhi ne toh kaha.".
"Kaha or ja rahe ho!"
"Toh kya karu tumhi batao!"
"Ab gussa bhi kar rahe ho?"
"Gussa kaha kar raha hu!"
"Toh kya kar rahe ho?"
"Argghh.. tumhe bhuk lagi hai na.. mai noodles lake deta hu."
"Nahi.. kuch spicy khane ka man kar raha hai ab."
"Tasty salt lake du?"
"Aise ku bol rahe ho!"
"Ketna paka rahi ho tum mujhee!"
"Paka rahi hu! toh jao.. niklo yaha se."
Abhijeet made her sat to bed and he kneeled down infront of her.
"Relax. Take a deep breathe."
Tarika relaxed a bit.
"Sorry.. wo pata nahi.."
"Its okay. Mai noodles bana ke lataa hu.. spicy. Hmm?"
"Bhuk nahi hai. Rehne do."
"Toh mai so jau?"
"Sone toh nahi ai the tum."
"Tumhare sath time spend karne aya tha."
"Toh karo na."
"Tumhara mood thik nahi hai na.. phir kabhi batey kar lenge."
"Tumhara mission keisa tha? Ye bhi nahi pucha mainee."
"Thik tha. or koi bat nahi. I can understand your situation."
"Tum chahe jo bhi ho mujhe bara acha handlle kar letee ho."
"Ab thik ho na.. feeling better?"
Tarika nodded.
"Good."
He stood up. Tarika too stood up and wrapped her arms around him, from behind.
"Thanks. Yahi so jjao."
"Nahi.. tumhara kyaa hai.. bich rat mei utha ke phirse satogi.."
"Toh phirse nana lena."
Abhijeet turned to face her. He saw mischievous grin on her face.
"Ye toh ab bohot ache mood mei hai!" he thought.
"Kya hua, aise ku dekh rahe ho? Mission mei miss nahi kia tumne mujhe?" she asked going close to him.
"Umm.. hum apko miss kiye bina reh sakte hai kya!"
"Toh phir itne dur kyon vage ja rahe ho?"
"Hum apse dur vaage ja rahe hai? Thodi der pehle tumne hi toh kaha na jane ko."
Tarika left him.
"Toh phir abhi tak yaha kyon... jayo na."
Abhi thought, "Aj ye mujhe pagal banaker hi chodegi."
"yaar Tarika.. tum thik se bolo tum chahti kya ho... ek bar kehti ho jayo.. toh dusri baar puchti ho kyon ja rahe ho!"
"Mere jo marji wo bolungi.. Tumhara jo maan kare wo tum karo. Mujhe abhi sona hai."
Saying so Tarika went & lied down on bed.
Abhijeet thought, "yaha rahu ya guest room jayu? isne bola jo maan kare wo karo. Matlab agr guest room mei galti se bhi gaya toh kahegi main iske sath nahi rehna chahta. Nahi.. nahi.. main yehi rehta hoon."
Tarika looked at him who was engrossed in thinking with a confused look on his face. She giggled seeing him like this. She was having funteasing him. After a while Abhijeet looked at her and she pretended as if she doesn't know what's happening around her.
Abhijeet also went towards her bed and lied down beside her. He maintained distance as he didn't want her to shout at him again.
Tarika looked at him and he gave her a pasted smile.
"So jayo tum.. main hoon na.. yaha."
"Toh itna dur kyon ho?"
"wo..wo tum agr phir se."
"Main phir se kya!"
"Nahi kuch nahi."
Abhi went close her and wrapped his hand around her waist.
"Ab thik hai?"
Tarika smiled genuinely and kissed his cheek.
"You look cute when you are confused."
"Matlab tum meri le rahe the thodi der pehle."
"Hee he he.."
"Tarika!"
"Accha sorry na.. ab so jayo."
Abhi kissed her on forehead.
They slept peacefully entangling their arms with each other.
At morning when Abhijeet woke up he didn't find Tarika in bed. The room was clean not a mess it was the previous night. Abhijeer chuckled.
"Sayad madam ka mood thik ho gaya."
With the best hope he left bed and also arranged that properly not wanting to take any risk before leaving for bathroom.
He got freshed and came to downstairs.
"Uth gai tum? Abhi mai jahi rahi thi tumhe bolane. Ao breakfast ready hai."
"Tum thik ho? He asked sitting on chair.
"Mujhe kya hoga?"
"Nahi.. wo kal rat.."
"Wo toh bas aisehi. It's a girls' typical problem. Tumhe nahi samajh aiga till you go through this."
Abhi gave a small smile and started eating.
"Tum bhi khao." Abhi said to her.
"Nahi.. wo maine thore pehle juice piya tha.. but ulti ho gai.. ab man nahi hai. Bad mei kar lungi. Tum khao na."
"Kya? Ulti bhi ho rahi hai tumhe!" He asked, standing up from the chair.
"Etna ku react kar rahe ho! Ho jata hai kabhi kabhi.. kuch dino se meri tabiyat thori thik nahi ha."
"Doctor ke pass chalte hai na."
"Ku? etni bhii koi problem nahi hai.. thik hu mai. Or tum please ye khatam karo... mai ready hokar ati hu lab ke liye."
Tarika was confused with his behaviour but didn't say anything. She left to get ready.
When she returned Abhijeet was done with his breakfaat and also he had cleaned the table.
"Arey wah.. tumne clean bhi kar diya. Thanks."
"Welcome. Tarika..."
"huh?" she asked wearing her watch.
"Aj mera half day hai. Lunch ke bad se free hu."
"Haan.. mission se ai ho... pata hai mujhe. Bus report karne jana hai na DCP ko."
"Haan. Tum half day le sakti ho?"
"Mai ku? Sham ko milte hai na. Or aj mai apna mood thik rakhne ki koshiah karungi. Pakka." She smiled.
"Nahi.. wo bat nahi hai. Ham doctor ke pass chalenge na."
"Ku? Tumhe kuch hua hai kyya!"
"Mujhe nahi yaar! Tumhe."
"Mujhe kya huaa? Abhijeet, maine kaha na yesab normal hai."
"Matlab tum janti ho ki tum.."
"Keisei batey kar rahe ho? mai thik huu ya nahi mujhe pata nahi hoga!"
Abhi thought, "ye janti hai ye pregnant hai! mujhe bataya tak nahi! Oh God! she wants the baby!"
"Ab mein kaise batau usse ki hum itni badi responsibility ke liye abhi tayyar Nahi hai!"
"Tarika baby.."
Tarika's eyes widened. Did he just call her baby?
Omygod! He did just call her baby... She couldn't believe her ears.
Tarika blushed.
"Tum kabse ye sab.."
"Mein kab se ye sab Matlab? Mein Nahi toh aur kaun kahega tumse ye?"
This was another shocker for Tarika. Was this the senior inspector Abhijeet she knew?
"Baby... baby ek bahot badi responsibility hai." said Abhijeet.
"Kya!"
Abhijeet thought, "Yaar... Gussa ho gayi kya? Mujhe shayad thode araam se baith Kar baat Karni Chahiye thi - ab kya Karu?"
"Tum abhi baby matlab bache ki baat Kar rahe the?"
"H-h-haan."
"Kabhi Bhi kuch Bhi shuru Kar dete ho tum."
"G-g-gussa mat Karo - Tum toh shaam tak mood Acha rakhne waali thi na?"
"Sab Sirf Tumhari wajah se hai."
She didn't want to tell him what misunderstanding had actually taken place. It would be embarrassing. Besides... No name could replace "Tarika *ji*"
Abhijeet thought again, "Haan haan... Baby Bhi toh sirf mere hi karan hai."
"Ye Baar Baar where are you zoning off to? Kabhi baby toh Kabhi doctor!" asked Tarika.
"Tarika Lekin bacha!"
"Phir se bacha! Dekho mein keh rahi Hu ki bache ke baare mein koi baqwas Nahi sun'na mujhe."
Abhijeet thought, "Damn... Lagta hai she really wants to keep the baby. Baat Bhi Karne ko tayyar Nahi hai."
"Phirse kis Soch mein pad Gaye?"
"N... Nahi kuch Nahi."
"Jo sochna hai Apne cabin mein baithke araam se sochna. Abhi chalo warna mein late ho jaungi aur sir mujhe daatenge."
"Aur agar waisa Kuch hua toh tum mujhe Zinda Nahi chhodogi." He muttered.
"Kuch Kaha?" She frowned.
"Keh Raha tha ki jaldi chaltein Hain."
Her features eased on hearing this.
Abhijeet thought, "phew! Baal Baal bachein."
They left Tarika's house. Abhijeet parked his car outside his house as he had to get ready for bureau.
"Mai bas 10 minute mei aya. Tum anader aogi ya yahi pe wait karogi?" he asked but then thought, "damn! kahi phirse galat kuch keh diya kya!"
"Nahi mai yahi rukti hu.. tum jao. I don't want you to see when you are changing dress."
"Living room mei beithogi... ek minute.. why don't you say you can't resist." he smirked.
"Ab jaoge ya mai khud chali jau lab?"
"ja raha hu!" He smirked and got out of the car
Tarika blushed hard.
When Abhijeet came out of his house, ready for bureau he saw Tarika carrying a small baby in her arms.
"Abhijeet, dekho na ketna cute baby hai. Hai na!"
she showed him the baby. She kissed the baby's cheek.
"arey Abhijeet, tum wapas kab ai? Tabhi bolu Tarika ku dikh rahi hai yaha. Weisey toh two weekks tak dikhi bhi nahi ek bar." said baby's grandmother.
Tarika blushed.
"Wo bas kal louta hu."
"Ab shadi bhi kar lo... tumhare bacho ko bhi khilalu marne se pehle."
" ky.. kya!" Tarika exclaimed.
"Arey nahi Aunty, ap toh janti hai.. mera kam.. ye shadi wadi.. mujhe.." he looked at Tarika's upset face and kept quite.
Tarika smiled trying to make him feel better.
"Abhijeet, lo na ise god meii.. ketna cute hai dekho." said Tarika.
"mai! nahi nahi.. ketna delicate hai ye! what if he breaks!"
Both the lady laughed out.
Tarika gave the baby to his grandmother and Abhirika got into the car
"Kitna zyaada pyaara tha baby."
"Tumhe itne zyaada Pasand Hain babies?'
"Tumhe Nahi Pasand ? mujhe toh laga ki tumhe bache bahot Pasand Hain."
Abhijeet thought, "Acha mauka hai Abhijeet - chauka maar le. Abhi baat karle baby ke baare mein."
"Pasand hai na... I mean... Dusro ke babies - Matlab tum... Tum samajh rahi ho na?"
Tarika chuckled.
"Tum toh aise nervous ho rahe ho Jaise ki meine tumhe baby deliver Karne ko bol diya."
"Waise Tarika... Meine suna hai ki delivery mein bahot pain Hota hai."
"Suna hai se kya Matlab... Hota hai pain."
"Tumhe darr Nahi Lagta? "
"Mujhe kyu darr lagega?" She then thought that he was asking about her medical school - whether she felt scared seeing deliveries. "Aur waise to be moms ko darr bhi Nahi Lagta - because happiness awaits them after some pain"
"Happiness toh theek hai... But responsibilities too."
"Haan wo toh hai... Lekin responsibilities se bhaagna Nahi Chahiye.'
"Par ek baby ki responsibility koi choti baat Nahi hai... Soch samajh Kar leni Chahiye.'
"Haan ye baat toh hai... Abhijeet ek baat batao -"
Abhijeet thought, "finally ! Samajh gayi... Ab mujhse Bhi puchegi ki mein kya Chahta hu."
"Tumhe aaj bacho ke baare mein baat Karne mein Bada interest aa Raha hai?" said Tarika.
'Wo toh aayega hi na... I mean... Tum..."
" Mein?"
'Haan Tumhari condition..."
"Meri condition? Oh God Abhijeet! Kahi tum ye toh Nahi Soch rahe ki mein pregnant Hu?"
"Matlab tumhe Nahi pata ki tum pregnant ho?"
"Ulte seedhe hi khayal aatein Hain tumhare dimang mein."
"symptoms toh saare Hain."
She thought about it - vomitting, fatigue, cravings, mood swings, NO PERIODS!
But then she brushed it off... She couldn't be pregnant.
"Tum na Mere dimang mein aise Ulte seedhe khayal mat daalo... Aur khud ke dimang se Bhi Nikal do."
"matlab tum abhitak confirm nahi ho?"
"confirm nahi ho ka kya mattlab! Mai preganant nahi hu."
"Acha! tumhi ne toh kaha tha ki barrier method's failure rate is high. Kaha tha na?"
"Haan.. kaha tha.. but Abhijeet.. we usually don't make love when I am ovulating.. you know to be safe. Toh keisey!"
"Haan par aisa bhi toh nahi hai na ki we never make love without protection. We do Tarika."
"During safe periods." Tarika emphasized her point.
"Phir tumhi toh kehti ho kii safe periods are not safe always."
"Tum mujhe pregnant manwakehi choroge!"
Abhijeet parked his car outside Bureau.
"Nahi.. mai tooh bas careful rehna chahta hu. Doctors ke pass chalte hai."
Tarika bite her nails.
Abhi holding her hand to prevent her biting, said, "uff mat karo."
Tarika removed her hands.
"Bohot kam hai lab mei aj.. nahi ho paiga."
"Acha thik hai. then kal chalenge. But be careful okay."
Tarika smiled.
"Tumhe baby nahi chahiye na? asked Tarika sadly.
"Tarika.. "
"I can understand."
"The decision will be ours.. together. Hmm? Don't stressed."
Tarika nodded.
"Tum jao, mai car park karke ata hu."
Tarika went to lab and Abhijeet to bureau.
