Hush! After a long time.. Kaise hai aap sab? I hope you all are doing good.
So here's the next update. Enjoy the read :D
Daya was lying silently on his bed. His mind was revolving around the memories he had made back then in America. The memories about his job, his friends, his colleagues, his house..his wife..
"Tum toh bahot asanise chali gai. Magar mera kya? Kaise bhula du mein tumhe?Kaise?"
He was drowning in his own pool of thoughts, unaware of his surroundings. So when his phone beeped, he was brought to present with a jerk. He shook his head and picked up his cell. He had received a message from his work place. He opened it and was stunned to read that he was dismissed from his office. He sat up with a jerk and hurriedly dialled a number, attaching the phone to his ears.
"Hello sir?..Sir how can you do this? What's my fault? I didn't do anything wrong.. I had met with an accident here, that's why I had to stay but that shouldn't be the reason because, well, I had already applied for a leave...It's your daughter who left me, not me sir!..But-"
He couldn't answer any further as the person had already cut the call. He stared at his phone angrily for some moments and then stood up to go downstairs.
Here, Abhijeet was all set to go to bureau. He was tying his shoes when saw Daya coming downstairs. He smiled but then he saw Daya's expressions and his smile turned into a frown.
Daya straight away made his way towards the kitchen, ignoring Abhijeet's presence. He removed a water bottle from the fridge and gulped down two-three sips from it, rubbing away his tears of frustration. Then he came back in the hall only to find Abhijeet staring at him in concern.
"Daya..kya hua haan?"
Abhijeet's tone was soft and Daya hated it. He looked at him in vex. "Tum? Tum puch rahe ho kya hua? Kyun? Tumhe nahi pata haan?"
Abhijeet looked at him in confusion. "Kis baremein baat kar rahe ho tum?"
"Yeh natak karna band karo Abhijeet!" Daya shouted. "Tumhari wajah se, sirf aur sirf tumhari wajah se aaj mujhe mere Boss ne naukri se nikal diya hai!"
Abhijeet's eyes widened. He looked at him in complete shock. "What?! Yeh sab kaise.."
Daya didn't let him finish his sentence. "Tumhari wajah se. Na mai tumhe lene yahan India mein ata aur na hi mera accident hota. Uss accident ke wajah se hi aaj Emma mujhe chod ke chali gai aur usi wajah se mujhe company se dismiss kiya gaya. Iss sab ke zimmedar tum ho." He yelled, pointing at Abhijeet while on the other hand his brother was looking at him in complete shock and hurt.
"Daya yeh kya keh rahe ho? Pagal ho gae ho? Mai kyun-" But Daya interrupted him again.
"Sahi keh raha hun mai. Tum chahte the ki mai wapas America na jau, uss raat tumne mujhse jhagda kiya, jiski wajah se yeh sab hua. Meri Emma.." He looked at Abhijeet in tears. "Vo bhi mujhe chodke chali gai. Acha yehi hota ki mai uss raat mar-"
But he was stopped with a loud shout of his name. "Daya! Kya keh rahe ho tum? Hosh mein aao!" Abhijeet's eyes also had tears now. He couldn't believe the rubbish Daya was spitting out.
Daya yelled. "Hosh mein hi hun mai, samjhe? Ab aya hun hosh mein.." He lowered his tone, giving Abhijeet a stern gaze. "Aaj se, tumhara aur mera rishta khatam. Na mai tumhara koi lagta hun, na tum mere koi lagte ho. Mere liye acha yehi hoga ki mai tumse dur rahoon." Saying so he turned his back on Abhijeet.
Abhijeet was appalled by those words of his pal. He hurried towards Daya and put his hand over his shoulder. "Daya..yeh..yeh kya keh rahe ho tum? Rishta khatam?!"
Daya jerked away his hand and held his wrist. "Haan Abhijeet!.. Rishta khatam."
Abhijeet jerked away his hand in anger. "Yeh rishtey hai Daya, koi deal nahi. Rishton ko mazak samjhna band kardo tum."
"Mazak maine nahi, tumne banaya hai meri zindagi ka.. Na maa papa mujhe yahan laate, na tum jaise insaan se meri mulakar hoti. Khud toh chal base aur mujhe.." His voice was struck in his throat because of a hard slap on his cheeks. He looked up at Abhijeet who was breathing heavily while tears were flowing down his cheeks. There was a look of disbelief on his face. He couldn't believe what Daya said moments before. Daya couldn't meet his fiery gaze. He downed his head when Abhijeet's phone rang. He gave Daya a look and received the call.
It was ACP sir. He assured his boss that he'll be in bureau in half an hour. While doing all this his gaze was fixed on Daya. Daya was also staring back at him with his hand placed on his cheeks.
When Abhijeet was going to move out, he heard..
"Aaj mara hai, dobara haath laganeki koshish bhi na karna. Vo haq kho chuke ho tum!"
He turned back in hurt but Daya was already going upstairs.
He whispered under his breath. "Bahot badal gae ho tum Daya. Ab tumhe wapas laane ki taqat nahi rahi mujhmein."
He bit his lips to stop his tears from flowing again. His eyes fell on the big portrait of their parents in the hall. He closed his eyes, praying silently in his heart, hoping for everything to turn back to normal.
