DUO's Home…
Lounge…
Soon after attending Daya and getting satisfied from his side, Sunil returned in the lounge to find Abhijeet present there on the dining chair in the same posture he had left him, so nodding head disappointedly to himself, Sunil left towards him when feeling he had returned from Daya's room now, Abhijeet too looked in his direction with silent-questioning gaze and…
Sunil nodded to him assuredly with: Stable hai ab pehly sy kafi… (And now grabbing his previous seat across Abhijeet, he continued as…) BP aur heart-rate thory disturbed hain abhi, iss liye main soch raha hoon k aaj ussy sula k hi rakhon, jaag gaya tou phir sy brain py pressure dainy lggy ga… (Abhijeet just nodded quietly while looking away now where, inhaling deeply, Sunil changing the topic, added while trying to sound casual as…) Khair tum bttao, ab tk yunhi baithy ho tum…? Bureau nahin jana kya tum ny aaj…?
Abhijeet shook his head while replying in irritation-filled-anger-and-pain as: Ptta nahin, maira mnn nahin ker raha kuchh bhi kerny ka… (Looked at the latter with anger-filled-hurt as…) Tumhien mujhy yeh sb pehly hi btta daina chahiye tha Sunil… Aur ab ager tumhien lg raha hai k itna sb jaan'nny k baad main iss samey bilkul normal behave ker sakta hoon tou tum ghalat ho, samjhy tum…? (Sunil just kept sitting there in calm-silence, allowing Abhijeet to express his helplessness, pain, anger, hurt, frustration, everything he was feeling at the moment, knowing it was necessary for him to vent it all out where Abhijeet stood up with jerk and left towards Daya's room, still looking quite restless with…) Aur yeh Daya… (And stopping in front of Daya's opened room door, turned his gaze towards Sunil in same anger-filled-helplessness with…) Inhi sb herkaton sy itni himmet berhi hai iss ki, pehly mujh sy baatien chhupany lgga aur phir mujhy sedative dy k nikl gaya… (And turned his gaze towards Daya in anger-filled-pain with…) Tum aik baar iss ko theek hony doo Sunil, daikhna tum main kaisy dimagh thikkany lata hoon phir iss ka, chhoron ga tou nahin issy bilkul… (Still looking at his brother's face, added complainingly in frustrated-angry tone as…) Bohut shoq hai na sahab ko apny mnn ki kerny ka, mujh sy baatien chhupany ka, main shoq purey kerta hoon tairy sb, bs aik baar tu theek ho ja, phir main tujhy theek kron ga, theek sy… (And completed angrily as…) Gadha na ho tou aik number ka, fazool insan, bdtameez…
Seeing him stopping now, maybe to catch his breath, as he was still looking quite furious…
Sunil thinking to avail the opportunity to somehow calm him down, said in light tone as: Wasey iss samey mujhy bohut khushi ho rahi hai k main tumhara dost hoon, bhai nahin… (Abhijeet turned his burning gaze towards him where Sunil completed in same light tone as…) Warna tum mujhy bhi itny hi khobsorat naamon sy bula rahy hoty abhi…
Abhijeet replied heatedly as: Zada bkwas kerny ki zarorat nahin hai tumhien, dil tou maira bohut ker raha hai k tumhara bhi srr toor dun main… (Added in pain-filled-anger as…) Yeh tou hai hi bewakoof aik number ka, pagal, lekin tum bhi kuchh kmm nahin ho, sb kuchh apny paet mein dbba k baith gaye aur ab bhi ptta nahin aur kitny… (Emphasized in taunting-anger as…) Professional secrets hain Dr. Sunil k paas mairy bhai k…
And he just jerked his head while looking away now when…
Sunil signaled him towards the chair, previously occupied by Abhijeet with: Baitho yahan…
Abhijeet shook his head while replying in anger-filled-frustration with: Mujhy nahin baithna tumhary paas bs…
And he glared at the latter in frustration, listening to his chuckle which was the result of Abhijeet's own complaint and anger and…
Sunil, still smiling, shrugged with: C'mon, that was cute…
Abhijeet tried to warn him with: Sunil main tumhien…
Sunil cut him in relaxed way with: Achha Okay, dhamkian baad mein dy laina, aa k baitho pehly yahan… (Completed smilingly as…) Tabhi tu wajah jaan pao gy na maira tum sy, tumhary bhai sy related professional secrets rakhny ki, hmm, aao yahan, baitho…
Abhijeet giving him a heated look and still grumbling under his breath, stepped forward and grabbed his previous seat with a thud, though kept looking away, clearly communicating his anger and frustration to the latter when…
Sunil inhaling a deep breath and turning serious now, initiated in complete calm tone as: Abhijeet main ny tumhien yeh sb ussi karen sy nahin btaya, js karen main ny Daya ko tum py hony waly hamly k barey mein nahin btaya kuchh…
Abhijeet cut him instantly with: Lekin mairi aur Daya ki situation mein bohut farq tha Sunil, yeh wajah justified nahin hai kisi bhi tarhan, mujh sy yeh sb chhupany ki…
Sunil asked him calmly as: Kya farq tha tumhari aur Daya ki situation mein Abhijeet…?
Abhijeet trying to justify his statement now replied as: Yehi k woh uss samey pehly hi bohut takleef mein tha, toota hua tha, easey mein mujhy nahin lgga k mujhy ussy uss hamly ka btta k uss ki takleef aur berhani chahiye… Aur tum hi ny tou kaha tha na k woh uss samey kuchh bhi soch sakta hai tou ussy yeh bhi tou lg sakta tha na k mujh py hamla uss k karen hua hai, jaisy woh pagal aaj tk mairi yadashat jany ka dosh khud ko daita hai, yeh dosh bhi tou khud ko dy sakta tha na woh…
Sunil nodding calmly while moving back on the chair with: Hmm, sahi, main ny bilkul kaha tha tumhien Daya sy thora sambhl k baat kerny ko, I remember… (Inhaled deeply while asking him now as…) Khair yeh tou Daya ki situation ho gae, tum btao k Daya tou takleef mein tha, toota hua tha, maan lia, tum kaisy thy tb…? (Element of shock-filled-pain instantly appeared in Abhijeet's eyes as a reply of that answer where Sunil calmly looking in his eyes, continued as…) Aur ab yeh sb jaan lainy k baad kya mehsoos ker rahy ho tum…? (Abhijeet just averted his gaze, while gulping down a moist breath and his hand was clutched in a tight fist now as his effort to control over his emotions, understanding well what Sunil had done with him… Where Sunil, who hadn't asked those questions to get any answer from the latter, as he already knew those answers but wanted for Abhijeet to have them too, added calmly as…) Toota hua, bikhra hua, sirf Daya hi nahin tha Abhijeet, aur na hi khud ko baekar k dosh dainy ka shoq sirf uss akely ko hai… (Abhijeet just closed his eyes as his effort to fighting back the tears that were threatening to fell at any moment now, easily getting about Sunil's indirect mentioning of Abhijeet's mother's death where Sunil added in calm-soft tone as…) Tumhien ptta hai Abhijeet, khud ko hr samey strong dikhany ka sb sy brra nuqsan kya hota hai…? (And seeing Abhijeet kept looking away in silence-filled-pain, he added as…) Sb samajhny lgty hain k uss strong insan ko kabhi kisi baat sy koe takleef ho hi nahin sakti, koe bhi baat ussy dard sy hi nahin sakti… (And leaning forward, he caringly pressed Abhijeet's shoulder with…) Iss liye kabhi kabhi apni vulnerable side dikhana bhi achha hota hai dost…
And suddenly Abhijeet just burst out in tears while hiding his face in his palms where standing from his chair, Sunil smoothly pulled him towards himself, placing one hand on his head and rubbing his back with his free hand while Abhijeet was sitting there, wrapping his both arms around his waist, and crying like a little kid now…
As coming to know about all those events had re-opened so many unhealed wounds of the past now, that had started aching, stinging and bleeding again now, making him the true picture of pain-and-hurt at the moment…
Where Sunil kept standing there beside him and not even once had tried to stop him and was consoling only by rubbing his shoulders, back and head…
After sometime, seeing Abhijeet calmed down a little and wanted to move back, Sunil smoothly removed his grip around him and grabbing the tissue-box from the dining table, he forwarded that towards him, who grabbed that without a word exchange while Sunil left from there towards the kitchen…
Soon Sunil returned in the lounge to find Abhijeet looking quite composed now and reaching near him…
Sunil forwarded the water glass towards him with: Pani…
Abhijeet grabbed that quietly with: Thank you…
And giving a supportive pat on his shoulder…
Sunil grabbing his previous seat, asked him softly as: Better…? (Abhijeet just nodded in silence where Sunil nodded back with…) Good… (And then inhaling deeply, he added as…) Maira tumhary sath yeh sitting kerny ka maqsad tumhien rulana nahin… (And stopping there he corrected himself with…) Chalo thora sa rulana bhi tha maqsad… (Abhijeet looked at him in friendly-complaining way where Sunil repeated himself as…) Thora sa bs… (Abhijeet just turned his face away while shaking his head disappointedly having a very light-small smile on his face now while listening to his friend adding as…) Aur zada maqsad tumhien yeh baat samjhana tha k sb kyun kehty hain k tum aur Daya doo shareeron mein mojoud, aik hi rooh ho… (Abhijeet looked at him in silence where Sunil continued as…) Tum dono hi aik dosry ki takleef ko outni hi shiddat aur gehrai sy mehsos kerty ho, jitni k jissy woh takleef direct pohanchi ho, woh mehsos kerta hai… Tum dono khud ko aik dosry sy allag ker hi nahin sakty kabhi… (Added while stressing as…) Jb k main ker sakta hoon khud ko tum dono k sath juri emotional attachment sy allag… (Abhijeet kept looking at him in silence while listening to Sunil adding in composed tone as…) Tumhien ptta hai Abhijeet, jb main psychiatrist bn raha tha na, tou humien yeh seekhany sy pehly k hum ny apny patients ko kaisy bachana hai, humien yeh seekhaya gaya tha k hum ny unn sy khud kaisy bachna hai… Humien seekhaya gaya tha k jo traumas, pains, sufferings, humien btai ja rahi hain woh humary patients ki hain, humari nahin… We are not allowed to be emotionally close to our patients for a reason, and reason is to maintain our own sanity… (Shook his head while adding as…) Daya ka case mairi zindagi ka sb sy mushkil case tha Abhijeet, humary aik sir ny kaha tha humein k humary asal skills tb test hoon gy jb humara koe qareebi humary paas as a patient aaye ga, aur vishvas kro Abhijeet, Daya ka case deal kerty hoye mujhy sir ki yeh baat bohut yaad aai… Iss liye uss k sath hony waly sessions mein mairi puri koshish rehti thi k main ussy sirf as a patient daikhon kyun uss samey ager main uss mein apna woh dost daikhny lgta js k sath khail ker brra hua hoon main tou ussy tou andheron sy kya hi nikalna tha main ny, main tou khud depression mein chala jata… (And inhaling deeply while spreading hands on his face to compose himself, he added while looking at the latter now as…) And that's why to a certain extent I managed to keep my personal and professional relation with Daya separate, but you cannot do it, and we both know it and you just proved it few minutes ago… (And taking a momentary pause, told the latter while emphasizing on his words as…) Aur iss liye jaisy mujhy Daya ko sb kuchh na btany sahi lgta hai, wasey hi mujhy tum sy professional secrets rakhna bhi bilkul sahi lgta hai… (Abhijeet just turned his gaze away in silence now where Sunil added in composed tone as…) Aur ab mujhy tum sy aik promise chahiye Abhijeet… (Abhijeet looked at him in silence where Sunil forwarded his hand towards the latter with…) Ager aagy chal k dobara kabhi koe easi baat samny aati hai js ki detail tumhien nahin ptta, tum uss ki detail jaan'nny ki koshish nahin kro gy, kyun k woh details bhi tumhari takleef berhany k elawa aur kuchh nahin krien gi, you can trust me on it…
Abhijeet nodded in composed way with: I trust you Sunil… (And inhaling deeply, he grabbed Sunil's forwarded hand firmly with…) And I promise too…
And they both pulled back their hands with…
Sunil smiled at him softly with: Thanks…
Abhijeet giving him a small smile, stood up while telling the latter in fresh tone as: Chalo main ab change ker lun jaldi sy, pehly hi Bureau k liye dair ho gae hai mujhy aaj…
And he left from there receiving an understanding nod from the other side while Sunil too stood up and left towards the kitchen…
