Chapter 8
Evening; Abhijeet's Home
Abhijeet was standing in the front of his house, silently staring at it, thinking something. He checked his watch to see what time it is.
Abhi (sighing) abhi sirf do minute hi hue hai! (From the last 15 mins he must have checked his watch 3-4 times. The reason behind his checking the watch so many times was that he arrived home a bit early; it was just 4:45! It was quite a rare-sight to catch him early at this hour at his home.)
This made him stand outside his own house for 15 mins. First he thought that he will call Daya & will ask for his company but then he rejected that plan thinking that Daya & Muskaan must be having their own plans. If all things could have been normal, he would have called her & spend time with her. But since things have changed now, he decided to pass off the time by himself. On that note he entered in the home & started walking towards his bedroom when he heard some sounds from the kitchen. He quickly pulled out his gun & started moving towards kitchen in alert manner. But as soon as he reached kitchen the tension lines got disappeared & a smile crept on his face. His best- buddy was experimenting with his cooking skills in the kitchen. & he was sure that Daya has taken lot of efforts for this. It was clearly reflecting from the condition of kitchen. Abhijeet was smiling looking at him, soon Daya also realized his presence.
Daya : (with surprise look)aree Tum kab aagaye boss? Mujhe toh pata hi nahi chala.
Abhi : jab tum uss (pointing towards the utensil) bartan main ki tumhari dish taste karke, apne cute expressions de rahe the na, tab main aaya..(he said this smiling) aur tumhare expressions aise lagta hai ki, dish jaroor achi hi bani hogi.
Daya: achi bani hogi se kya matlab hai tumhara? Tumhara kehne ka kya matlab hai, ki mujhe khaana banana nahi aata? Tumhare jaankari ke liye bata du ki main tumse toh accha hi cook hu! aur waise bhi bohaut kam log tumhare jaise khishkismat hote hai jinhe mere haath ki dish khaane miti hai.
Abhijeet (mocking tone) accha?(changing his tone) waise Daya tum yaha kaise? Kuch jaroori kam tha kya?
Daya: kyu main tumse aise hi milne nahi aa sakta kya, kuch kam hoga tohi mujhe tumhare ghar main aane ki permission hai kya?
Abhijeet: arre nahi daya, aise baat nahi thi… woh tum bina bataye aagaye na,issiliye poocha.
Daya: toh ab kya mujhe tumhari, appointment leke aane padega?
Abhijeet: aree daya tum mere life ke aise client hi jisse appointment ki kya, permission ki bhi jarrorat nahi padegi. samjhe
Daya: ab woh sab choddo aur jakar fresh ho jayo, tab tak main tumhare liya coffee aur meri dish lata huu!
Abhijeet: theek hai. ( After that Abhijeet left for getting fresh)
After About 15 mins
Abhijeet got fresh & joined Daya. Daya brought coffee mugs & his dish & both got settled. After having their snacks & chit-chat & praising Daya's dish, Daya decided that he will ask abhijeet about it. So he cleared his throat & was about to ask when
Abhijeet: Daya, main janta hu tum yaha kyu aaye ho… Tum yaha mere aur tarika ke bich jo kuch hua isska bare main baat-chit karne aaye ho naa?
Firstly Daya was startled but then he realized after all he was in front of " ABHIJEET! nothing could escape from his eyes..
Daya : hmmm
Abhijeet :main janta hu Daya ki tumhe meri phikar hai, issilye tum iss bare main jaana chahte ho par Daya, issbar main tumse yahi kahunga kit um iss mamle se jitna door rahoge utna behtar hoga. Main nahi chahta ki tumhe isse taklif ho..
Daya : Agar Abhijeet tum chahte ho ki mujhe taklif na ho to please mujhe mujhe bata do, tum mujhe nahi bataoge toh shayad mujhe bohaut taqlif hogi..
Dekho hum baaithkar baton ko suljha denge. Har ek baat ka koi na koi solution hota hai, aur main jaanta hu ki iss baat ka bhi solution jarror hoga. Aise achanak se …
Abhijeet: aise achanak se kuch nahi hua hai Daya. Aur tumhe toh pata bi nahiki humare bich main hua kya hai?
Abhijeet: aur waise bhi Daya, jis rishte main Pyaar na ho. Uss rishte ko khatam karne main hi bhalayi hai.
Daya: abhijeet yeh tum kya baat kar rahe ho? Tum hosh main toh ho? Mujhe saaf-saaf poori baat batao.
Abhijeet: Daya…
Flashback
Abhijeet was present at his home taking rest because his wound was not healed totally,he was alone since Daya & muskaan were off to nashik for Zygnema's case hearing.
Abhijeet was getting bored so for letting the time pas he started reading a novel when someone rang the door bell. He went to check, who was it at this odd time since it was 22:30, he opened the door & found tarika. He was shocked to see her at this time.
Abhijeet ( shocked ) Tarika tum iss waqt yaha par kya kar rahi ho?sab theek toh hai na.
Tarika: main andar aa sakti ho abhijeet?
Abhijeet realized this & let her come in. She came inside & sat on the sofa; abhijeet followed her.
Abhijeet : kya baat hai tarika? Tum aise achanak se, sab theek toh hai na ( & he sat next to her)
Tarika: abhijeet mujhe tumse jaroori baat karni hai.
Abhijeet: haan bolo.
Tarika: abhijeet who baat yeh hai ki….
Abhijeet : tarika saaf saaf batao ki kay baat hai.
Tarika: abhijeet mujhe ab lagta hai ki, hume …hume ab saath nahi rehna chahiye.
Abhijeet : matlab?
Tarika : ( facing to him) I think we should break-up.
Abhijeet was completely shock at her this statement would be the understatement. He was confused about how to react to this situation.
Abhijeet : tarika tum mazak toh nahi kar rahi na?
Tarika : main mazak nahi kar rahi abhijeet. Mujhe sach-much main aisa lagte hai ki hume alag ho jana chahiye…aur ek baat iss baat par hum na baat kare toh behtaar hoga( she got up & left the house. without waiting for his reaction.)
Flashback over
Daya: abhijeet tumne usse poocha nahi ki, ussne aisa kyu kaha? Tumne usse jaane kaise diya abhijeet?
Abhijeet : tumhe kya lagta hai, daya, maine usse poocha nahi ki baat kya hai, uske jaane ke baad main usse kai baar call kiya agar itni baar call maine usse iss zagde se pehle kiye hote toh shhayad yeh nobat hi nahi aati. Par ussne mere call ek baar bhi receive nahi kiya.
Maine soch liya tha ki agle subah hi main usse milne jayounga par agle din joh hua, usske baad uski nobat hi nahi aayi.
Flash back
(After she left)Abhijeet just kept looking at her. He was just trying to analize the whole scenario,which happened just know. He called her repeatedly. But every time she didn't answrer the phone call. He decided to meet her the next day & get the things sorted as far as possible.
The next morning he got up & was leaving for her home when someone rang the door bell. He thought that it could be her, so he quickly went to open it, but much her to dismay, it was queerer. He took the querrer & opened it….
After opening the querer he cancel out his plan to visit her home &
Abhijeet to himself : theek kaha tumne tarika, hume alag hi hona chahiye..
Flashback over
Da: ya aisa kya tha uss querier main abhijeet.
Abhijeet went inside in his bedroom & arrived after couple of mins with a big brown colored envelope & gave it to daya.
Daya took it from abhijeet's hands, it was from tarika.
He opened it, another white colored envelope with a letter was kept inside it. Daya took the letter & look at abhijeet. abhijeet gave him 'go ahead look' & he started reading it.
To
The Abhijeet,
Yeh itna formal letter dekhe kar tumhe hairani hui hogi. Abhijeet main chahthi hu ki, iss letter ki tarah humara rishtha bhi formal hi ho jaye.
Darsal humare bich joh kuch hai usse rishtha bhi kaha nahi jaa sakta. Kyunki iss rishte main rishte jaisi koi baat thi hi nahi abhijeet. RISHTHE ko rishte ki ahemiyat tabhi milti hai jab, uss rishye main aapnapan ho, pyaar ho, wade ho, ek doosre ki maujoodgi ka prabhaw ho,.. par humare bich main aisa kuch nahi tha.
Main tumhare sirf colleague hone ki taur par shayad tumhe meri phikar thi, par isse yeh sabit tho nahi hota ki hum main pyaar tha. Raha sawal flirts ka toh tum har kissi ladki se flirt karte ho, mujhse bhi kar liya toh ussemain kya? woh shayad sirf Temporary attraction ya mazak bhi keh sakte hain, inn sab se yehi sabit nahi hotha na,ki humare bich kuch hai abhijeet.?
aur waise bhi abhijeet meri maujoodgi ka ehsaas shayad hi tumhe kabhi hua hoga. Jab tak tumhare pas "uska" saath hai tab tak tumhari poori duniya ussmain hi bast hai. mujhe nahi lagta ki mujhe tumhare iss duniya main kabhi "uske" hote hue jagah milegi. uss insaan ke hote hue meri tumhare zindagi main koi ahemiyat nahi hai abhijeet; issliye behtar yahi hoga ki main kissi aur ke duniya main sama jao jisse meri maujoodgi ka ehsaas ho. aur aisa shaks mujhe mil gaya haii, main usse pyaar karti hu. Woh insaan bhi mujhe bohaut chahta hai. Issilye behtar yahi hoga hum dono ke kiye ki hum, humare bich main jot ha usse mita de. Aur ek naye zindagi ki shuruwat kare….
meri yeh khwaish hai ki aage ka humara rishta sirf aur sirf professional hoga. ho sake toh mujhe aage se contact ya milne ki koshish mat karna abhijeet. its a request...aur ek baat iss letter ke saath main uss insaan ki tasveer bhej rahi hu, jisse main pyaar karti hu.
Tumhari colleague
Tarika
Daya quickly opened the white envelope. It contained photos of the tarika & that person who was in love with tarika. Daya was looking at one of the photo, tarika was standing close tothat person & that person was holding tarika by herwasit . Daya started to have a close look at the person's face & was shocked to see him, he was none other than Sarthak…
Daya was totally shocked & mind was not beleving on this stuff but he have to believe it since all things are proving that..
Daya looked at abhijeet.
Daya: Abhi…
Abhijeet: main jaanta hu daya tumhe bhi iss baat par yakin nahi ho raha hai, par daya joh sach hai usse hum badal toh nahi sakte na…maine yeh sachai apna li hai behtar hoga tum bhi yeh sab jald-se-jald apna lo.
Daya; nahi abhijeet, mujhe tarika se iss mamle main baat karni hai.
Abhijeet : nahi daya. Tum tarika se iske bare main kuch nahi kahoge.
Daya: par abhijeet
Abhijeet : maine kehdiya Daya tum tarika se kuch nahi kahoge. Tarika se toh kya tum kissi se bhi kuch nahi kahoge…. Tumhe meri kasam daya…
Daya was in totally helpless situation. Now he can't do anything.
Abhijeet: aur ek baat Daya behtar hoga ki, yeh mamla yahi khaatam ho jaye...main, meri zindagi ka aur mazak bana na nahi chahta..( abhijeet left for his room)
Abhijeet wanted to keep all this to himself, but...after that letter abhijeet avoided tarika. he even made up is mind that noone called tarika was in his life. from that day, a kind of hatred build up in his mind for tarika. not because she left her for sarthak but because she thought that daya is the hurdle in their relationship...
here Daya was standing still & ruminating all the things. his mind was asking him only one question was ," HE responsible for all this?"
In some corner of MUMBAI
A man was waiting for someone on a deserted quiet road. The road was quiet & was away from all the hustle- bustle of the city.
A bike stopped in front of that man. The person on the bike handed some money & an envelope to that man who was standing along the road side.
The man took the money & opened the envelope. it contained a photo. the man looked at the photo
MAN: arre yeh toh Daya hai. innpar bhi nazar rakhni hai?
The person on bike nodded.: aur baaki do par bhi kadi nazar rakhna jinki photo maine tumhe pehle di thi, samjhe.
MAN: theek hai.
After giving all the necessary instructions the person on bike left.
