Chapter-24


Bua ji straight forward: tum kaun

Rahul gulped down in fear hearing that cross question...

Mai Rahul...

Bua ji: kon Rahul

Rahul wiped his sweat giving a tough look to Abhijeet who was standing behind Bua ji and showing his 32 teeths...

Bua jee mai wo jo Abhijeet k sath school mein tha naa...Rahul

Bua jee looked at him for a while and then came near...hmmm wo jo meri khidki ka kaanch tod deta tha hr baar...

Rahul(shy tone) jee mai wahi... jee

Bua jee nodded her head in yes and then turning to Daya: aapki tareef

Daya who was looking all this in confusion blinked once and came out from this sudden attack...

He opened his mouth to say something but his words were saved by his bro...

Dayaa..ye Daya hai bua...mera bhai

Bua jee to Abhijeet: kyu bhai mujhe to aaj tk yahi lgta tha ki tum Vrinda k eklaute bete ho...ye doosra beta kahan se aaya...

Abhijeet this time also cut short her: ye mera BHAI hai Bua or shayd itna kaafi hai...

Buaa jee throw another look to Daya and moved inside Vrinda's room...

Here Daya looked at Abhijeet in confusion whereas Rahul in anger while Abhijeet was busy in setting a suitcase in inside a wooden cabinet...

Rahul barged over him: kya chal raha hai ye sab Abhijeet...(angrily but in low tone) kya jroorat thi haan...

Abhijeet in calm tone: mai kisi bhi keemat pr Daya ko akele yhn rehne nahi de skta...bus

He moved toward Daya who was still looking at both of them to get some answer to the several questions he was having in his mind at that time...

Abhijeet standing just in front of him: ye meri Bua hain Daya...thodi gusse wali hain pr dil ki buri nahi hain...jab tak mai waps nahi aa jata Bua jee yahin tumhare sath rahengi...theek

Daya: are pr iski kya jroorat thi Abhi...mai smbhal leta sab...

Abhijeet: jroorat tumhe nahi jroorat mujhe hai...aur ab koi behas nahin(to Rahul) jaldi chalo taxi wala kabka bahr khada hai...

He side hugged Daya and wished him take care while Rahul too did the same with some additional advices and after wishing Maaji and Bua ji, they both left...

...

...

...

Daya after locking the residence door fill up a glass with chilled water and came inside his MAAJI'S room who was having some eye talks and side by side by hand moments with Bua ji...

She saw Daya and smiled broadly while Bua ji just keep looking at both of them in confusion...

Daya handover the glass to Bua ji which she took instantly as she actually was feeling thirsty...she satisfied her thirst and passed a look on the young chaml sitting over their...the wheatish complexion,soothing eyes and a lovely smile...she concluded and praised the decent looks of Daya in her heart...

Daya: Maaji chliye ab aapki exercise ka waqt ho gaya hai Abhi keh kr gaya hai ki apko ek dum time se exercise krani h...maine halki bhi dheel chodi na to wo akr mujhe bhut marega...

Maaji laughed on this which filled Daya's heart with delight whereas bua ji was really impressed by this boy...

After sometime of exercise Maaji got tired so Daya lie her down and soon she drifted into sound sleep due to weakness...

Bua ji seeing the smiley face of Daya staring at his Maaji,intervened with: chalo mai dinner bana rahi hun...tum bhi aa jao...

Daya: nahi Bua ji dinner maine ready kr dia hai aap chliye mai aaya...

...

...

...

Here on the other side Rahul and Abhijeet were now flying away where Rahul was really angry on Abhijeet: kya jroorat thi Bua ji ko lekr aane ki...jante nahi ho tum unka swabhav...agar unhone Daya se kuch keh dia to...wo to wese bhi itna sensitive hai...

Abhijeet in soft tone: mai janta hu Rahul pr mai karta bhi to kya...Mai Daya ko is tarah akele chod kr bilkul bhi nhi aa skta tha...kum se kum Bua ji hongi to use agr koi jroorat hogi wo kisi ko bulwa to skti hain...sister bhi itne bde ghr me Daya k sth rhne me uncomfortable ho rhin thin...

Rahul looked at him in question on which Abhijeet nodded: hmm unhone Doctor se kahi thi ye baat doctor ne hi mujhse request ki...mai kya krta...Bua ji ko chod kr aur koi naam dhyan me hi nhi aaya...aur hai bhi kaun Allahabad mein...aur yaar wo dil ki buri nahin hain Rahul ye tum bhi jante ho bus kabhi kabhi kuch jyada hi keh deti hain...

Rahul in low tone: bus isi baat ki mujhe fikr hai...

...

...

...

Bua ji looked at the plate and it was filled with biryani...

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Daya: ye mansahari(non-veg) khana mai nahi khati hoon...

Daya: nahi Bua ji Non veg...(she looked at him so he changed) mera matlab mansahari to wese bhi bna nahi rhe hum...(dreamy tone)Abhi kehta hai Maaji ko bhut psnd hai...jab wo theek ho jaengi na tab bnayenge...

Ye pure veg hai...(stammered with)I mean(with excitement) shuddh shakahari...

Bua ji looked at his face and burst out in a sweet laugh which confused Daya but she pulled his cheeks and start her dinner but Daya turned red with this...

...

...

...

Accha beta to tum karte kya ho...

Bua jee mere Dad ka business dekhta hoon...

Bua jee: ye to bhut acchi baat hai...tumhare Dad ne to ab retirement lr li hogi...jab unka beta sb sambhal rha hai to...

Daya looked at her silently and she noticed some moisture in the corner of his eyes...

Bua ji in tention: kya hua beta

Daya nodding his head in no...wo hain nahi ab is duniya mein Bua ji...(small sad smile) permanent retirement...

Bua ji closed her eyes whereas Daya slowly left the place...

...

...

...

Next morning:

Daya woke up with the rays of the sun coming from the windows of the room...he got down from the bed wear his sleepers and stood in front of mirror seeing his reflection...

His eyes were swelled due to irregular sleep as he was feeling uneasy at night because Bua ji choosed to lie beside Maaji that's why Daya had to sleep in Abhijeet's room...he was feeling alone their due to which the same old fear started building its nest in his heart but he managed well...took medicines/ignore those thoughts/sometimes humming a song and at last went into dreamland...

He washed his face,brushed his teeths and dialed a number after having a look of wall clock...

Boss pohnch gaye...

Abhi: haan Daya bus abi dus minute hue...tu theek h na...

Daya in smile: haan mai theek hu Abhi...

Abhijeet slowly: dekh Daya bua ji se jyada baat mut krna...bus kaam ki baat krna smjhe...

Daya in confusion: par kyu Abhijeet...

Abhijeet: are wo thodi alag nature ki hain...jaldi naraz ho jati hain...kisi bhi baat pr bura maan leti hain...islie bus tu kaam ki baat kr...jada bad bad krne ki jroorat nahi...

Daya made a face: mai kahan bad bad karta hoon...

Abhijeet: wo to mai janta hi hu acche se...ki sahab kitne seedhe hain...(Daya smiled)accha Daya Maa theek hain na...

Daya: haan Abhijeet Maaji bilkul theek hain...bus tum log sab kaam khtm krke jaldi se aa jao...

Abhijeet felt something is scaring Daya may be the feelimg of loneliness but he choosed to keep quiet whereas Daya asked again: Daa kahan hain Abhi...

Abhijeet: wo to airport se niklte hi hospital nikl gaya buht urgency thi use mai bhi bus ghar...

Daya intervened with: Abhi wo

Abhijeet cut him in mid: haan yad hai...tumhare ghr hi jaunga...OK

Daya smiled: hmmm done

And after few more seconds both bid bye to each other...

...

...

...

Today is third day of Abhijeet and Rahul departure...Daya was cutting vegetables at night in Maaji's room as nurse went away after finishing her duty hours as per doctor instruction ...Daya was side by side also talking with Maaji on random matters...

Daya feel a glimpse of a person standing on the door...he turned and says: kya baat hai Bua ji...aaiye na aap khadi kyu hain...

Bua ji entered...her face was tough and eyes were fixed on Daya...

She asked after narrowing her eyes: Daya tumhare Maa Baap ka naam kya hai...

Daya look at her in confusion and asked: kyu Bua ji...aise achanak

Bua ji strictly: ye mere sawal ka jawab nahi hai...

Daya: ji wo Shri. Raghuvendra Shetty and Mrs. Jhanvi Shetty...

Bua ji sarcastically: accha maine tumhare Maa Baap ka naam poocha hai Daya...kahin koi ghalti to nahi kr rahe na tum...

Here one person was seeing all but she can't do anything...she was sensing the upcoming danger but she was helpless...she tried to move her hand and grab Daya's hand who was standing near her bed but failed...

Daya now realised what she wanted to know,he accepted firmly: nahi mai koi ghalti nahi kar raha...kehte hain janm dene wale se jyada paalne wala bada hota hai...islie wo dono hain meri Maa Baap...

Bua ji now angry: ye bhashan nahi sun na hai mujhe...naam bta apne asli Maa Baap ka...

Daya too angry with her tone: aanaath tha mai nahi janta unka naam...haan tha pr ab nahi hoon...(like a kid)Abhi hota to jawab deta aapki is baat ka...

Bua ji: bus ye natak band...acchi tarah wakif hoon mai tum jese logo se...pta nahi kis kis ka khoon...

Daya moved near her dangerously: kis ka khoon haan...jaanwar ka khoon hota hai kya hum anaath baccho k ander...agar humare Maa Baap hume nahi rkhna chahte to humara kya kusoor...

Bua ji: paas mut aa mere mai keh rhi hu...door aur nikal tu humare ghr se mere rehte kisi lawaris ki jgh nhi h is ghr mein...

Daya's body was shaking in anger...his heart was crying slowly but his mind was angry enough to ignore the feelings of the heart...

They both didn't noticed that one soul was struggling hard...

Daya loudly: jab tak Abhi nahi aata mai kahin nahi jaunga...(Without looking at the bed side) Maaji meri jimmedari hain...

Bua ji in hate tone: in meethi meethi baton se Abhijeet pighalta hoga mai nahi...abi k abi nikal ja yahan se...mai tujhe ek minute bhi bardasht nahi kr skti mere ghr mein...

Daya was only looking at her with teary eyes...he was not able to defend himself as the heart wins the battle...he was going to move when a sweaty hand hold his palm...he recognised that touch...he quickly looked back and became shocked...

His Maaji fully dipped in sweat was standing at her own feets gasping harshly was about to fall down due to her trembling legs but Daya came ahead quickly and she put her all weight on her younger son whose eyes were running out with tears of happiness...

Daya hold her tightly and pick her up in his lap...he lie her down on the bed in sitting mode,quickly filled a glass of water and attached it to his mother's lips...

Here Bua ji who was totally silent till then now moved ahead and snatched her hand from Daya who looked at her in anger...

Vrinda...tu theek ho gayi...(teary eyes) ab hum pehle ki tarah khoob gappe marenge...(in smile) haan

The mother looked at the action of the person who was now like a culprit for her who hurt her son badly...she speak with difficulty as sensed Daya again trying to leave...

D..A..YAA

Daya turned and almost run toward her hiding himself in her secured shell crying loudly...

The mother was handling her kid very smoothly,rubbing her fingers in his hairy scalp...

Bua ji choose to leave the place after seeing the angry glares of her sister-in- law...

Daya after getting relaxed look at her face which was full of sweat...she was taking deep breathes and her legs were still trembling but still a sweet smile was crepted on her lips...

Daya happily: MAAJI aap theek ho gayin...Maaji aap...he kisses her both the hands simulatenously countless times...he took a towel wiped her sweat...and now started applying oil on her legs which give her sooth...

Daya after seeing her settled down came out and move outside jumping in happiness and telling to all neighbours...

Sagar bhaiya Maaji theek ho gayin...Abdul chacha...Mathur uncle...

All the neighbours really became happy and they move inside the house to have a look of Daya's Maaji while till then Daya ride to the nearest Taxi depot after borrowing bike from Sagar...

Bhaiya ye mera address hai...theek ek ghante baad aap aa jaiyega ok...

Taxi driver: pr sahab ek ghante tk apna bakhat barbaad nhi hoga...

Daya: jitna bhi ho aap uske lie muh manga daam le lijiyega pr muje late nhi chiye...holding the taxi driver from shoulders and telling his happiness...Meri maa theek ho gayin hain...maa and after saying this he leave the place leaving a perplexed driver who wonders whether sky has more stars or this person's eyes...

...

...

...

Daya came back after purchasing some healthy vegetables and juices...

He was really happy...he totally forgots what had happened sometime before...he was feeling an urge to call his brother back now and hug him telling the mlst happy news but he want to keep this news as a surprise for Abhijeet...he was already smiling after imagining the glowing face,teary eyes and sweet smile of his brother...

He came home and straight made his was toward his mother's home who was really restless due his abscence but Sagar relaxed her that he went on his bike and will be back soon...but what can relax the heart of an afraid mother...only a glance of her kids...

Daya was happy to see all the neighbours still their...he came near Maaji who was relaxed now...

Daya to a women in low tone: Aunty aap Maaji ko change krwa dengi...unhe hospital lekr jaana hai...

Lady nodded in smile and instructed all the males to leave the room and Daya to bring a dress from her wardrobe...

Daya first hesitated but as Bua ji was totally absent from the scene he opened the almirah and after seeing many choosed one...

He bring the dress and Maaji was surprised after seeing the choice...she says in smile with difficulty: Ab...hi bhi ya..hi...

Daya too surprised but didn't say anything...

He was waiting outside the room and soon the lady who was helping in changing came out...Daya thanked her and move inside...

Are baal to banaye nhi aunty ne apke...

Maaji in carefree tone: theek h

Daya:aise keise

He untied the messy bun smoothly and started combing her hairs removing the splitants...

He made beautiful plates with his expert hands...

Maaji smiled on his and kissed his forehead which gives so much pleasure to Daya who with teary eyes and trembling lips thanked her for giving so much love to him...

...

...

He helped her in getting up but he soon realised that she was still having difficulty in moving her legs...so he again picked her in his strong arms and moved outside placing her carefully on the backseat of the taxi and soon they drove toward the hospital...

...

...

...

Congratulations ...maine kbi itni speedy progress nahi deki kisime bhi...its all due to blessings of her sons and dear ones...

Vrinda jee k legs abi b paralysis ki state me hain baki poori upper body paralysed state se bahr aa gyi h...

Daya face fell down but Doctor assured him: chinta mut kren Daya...aap bus regular oiling or medicines jaari rakkhein...wo bhut jald hi acchi ho jaengi...I am sure...

Daya's face lit in happiness and he thanked Doctor...

...

...

Rahul yaar do din ho gaye Daya ne ek bhi phone nahi kia... sab theek to hai na...

Rahul: are to tu kr le...

Abhijeet: are maine kia tha...pr Sagar bhaiya ne uthaya...keh rhe the ki Daya bathroom me hai...uske baad bhi ek do baar kia har baar kabi Mathur uncle to kabi Sister...isne baat hi nhi ki...koi na koi bahana bana raha hai...yaar mujhe to bhut ghabrahat ho rahi hai...

Rahul: chalo ab to wapas chal hi rahe hain...dek lete hain...flight land hi hone wali hai thodi der me...

Abhijeet nodded his head in yes...

...

...

...

Abhijeet was really tensed as he was ringing the bell from past few minutes but no one was opening the door...

Rahul: chal kya raha hai...Aaji tod de darwaja...

Abhijeet was really tensed he was about to break the door when it opened with low sound and he saw Daya standing in front of him with serious face...

Abhijeet bombarded on him: kya tareeka hai ye Daya kab se bell baja rahe hain hum log or tu phone bhi nahi utha rahe do din ho gye...kya hua ky...(his words remained in his throat when he heard a voice)

JEET

Abhijeet was paused at his place...he saw Daya smiling in tears and soon unblock his way...

Abhijeet saw his mother was sitting on a wheelchair calling him after opening her both the arms...

Abhijeet was unable to feel anything he was not moving even a inch from his place...

Daya came and pressed his shoulder...Abhijeet look at Daya like a lost kid and hide himself in his arms crying bitterly...

Daya just give his bro time to expel his pain on his shoulders while slowly slowly taking him near the mother who was eager to hug her child...

Abhijeet came near her touched her face...her both the cheeks and sofly pulled them give a sweet laugh to the mother which was clear and loud...Abhijeet just hugged her and they both lost in each other forgetting all others...Rahul too hugged Vrinda from the back and she put her one hand on his hairy scalp too...

Daya who was standing away now feel jealous of his bro as he was getting all the love...

He made a face like pout...

Maaji saw him and signalled Abhijeet to have a look of Daya...

Abhijeet smiled and called AAJA...

Daya quickly jumped on his bro and hugged him while the mother engulf her both the kids...

...

...

...

That NIGHT:

Abhijeet came on the terrace where Daya was standing,looking lost...

Abhi: kya bhai...kb tk yahan khde rehne ka iraada h...

Daya looked at him and Abhijeet can feel his pain from his eyes...

Abhi placed a hand on his cheeks: kya baat hai...

Daya moved his head down...

Abhi: mujhe nhi btayega...

Daya speaked in the same head down mode: boss kya mera khoon ganda...

Abhi glared him which make his mouth shut...

Chal tujhe ek kahani sunata hoon...

Daya looked at him in question...

Abhijeet started: ek aurat thi...jinke pati ka shadi k ek saal baad hi dehant ho gaya tha...koi sahara nahi tha uske paas...wo ek anath ashram me naukri krne lagin...wahan ek bacche ko unhone god lia...

Wo baccha hi ab uski zindagi mein...us aurat ne din raat ek kr k mehnat ki use padhaya likhaya...acche school me dakhila kraya...or jab wo baccha 18 saal ka hua tab...

Daya: tab kya...Abhi

Abhijeet took a deep breathe: wo baccha apni Maa ka sab kuch chura kr faraar ho gaya...ek gehna uske pati ki akhri nishani bhi nahi chodi...

Daya understood his meaning,he in guilt tone: pr mai aisa nahi hu Abhi

Abhi angrily: tujhse kab teri vafadari ka saboot manga hai maine...tu to mera bhai hai...bachpan me bichad gaya tha aaj mil gaya hai...

Daya smiled broadly

Abhi mai bua ji se mil

Abhijeet: wo chali gayin hain Daya...unhone khud mujhee us sham ki hr baat btayi...tujhse nazre milane ki himmat nahi hai unme ab...aur mai janta hu tu bhi unhe dukh nahi dena chahega...

Daya nodded his head in yes...
