Prerish || The Journey that made them

The Afternath of Fire

Mr Mehra gestured to the guards to allow them. Mr Bose and Anurag rushed inside.

"Meri poti kaha hain??? Kaha hain meri poti?? To aise rakh rahin hoon tum meri bachi ka khayal. Haan itni badi badi baatein karte the. Ki Kukki meri beti hain. Uska naam Prerna Sharma Bajaj hain aur kya kuch nahin. Kar kya rahin the tumlog jab yeh hadsa hua??? Haan???" Mr Bose shouted and tried to corner Prerna. Prerna just kept looking at him straight with rage in her eyes.

"Sneha kaha hain??? Woh theek hain?? Is She okay?? Main kuch puch raha hoon tumse. SNEHA KAHA HAIN??" Anurag shouted. Prerna didn't say anything just kept looking at Mr Bose. Frustrated that Prerna was not saying anything Anurag started looking here and there trying to find Sneha or someone who could tell him something about her when he saw Mr Bajaj sitting in a corner chair. Anurag went towards him.

"Meri beti kaha hain??" Anurag said

"Mr Basu don't!!!. This is not the time and trust me you don't want to do this' ' Mr Mehra said trying to stop Anurag from talking to Mr Bajaj. Mr Bajaj looked at him straight. "Ghur kya rahin hai mujhe?? Aapse darta nahin hoon main." Anurag Shouted

"Bada chilate the ki aapki permission ke bagair aapki beti ko lejana to kya use neend se bhi koi nahin utha sakta. Haan kya kaha tha aapne Komolika haath laga kar dekhaye Sneha ko. Use kuch karne ki zaroorat hi kaha hain. Aap hi kafi hain." Anurag mocked Mr Bajaj, smiling.

"MR BASU!!!! THAT'S ENOUGH" Mr Mehra shouted however Anurag continued.

"WHY??? Badi badi baatein karta the yeh aur woh waha bethi hain aapki Mrs Bajaj bhi ki yeh Sneha ke dada hain Sneha Mr Bajaj ki beti hain to kya hua is waqt. Do you realise what has just happened?? Your whole house just got burned. It blasted and it is nothing but ashes. Aur us ghar main meri bachi akeli fasi hui thi. Koi nahin tha uske saath. Agar use kuch ho jata to?? Kya hua?? Kya hua Mr Bajaj?? Aaj koi dialogue nahin hain aapke paas? Haan kaha gaye aapke so called one liners. Acha haan!!!! Abhi toh sympathy gain karne ka time hai nahin??? Fail jo ho gaye hain. Haar jo gaye hain aap. Aapki sachai jo sabke samne aa gayi hain" Anurag shouted

"I don't have time for this crap. I am taking my granddaughter out of here." Mr Bose shouted and started searching for Kukki.

"Mr Bose kya kar rahin hain aap??? Kya kar rahin hain??? Mr Bose??? Mr Bose???" Mr Mehra kept shouting and Mr Bose kept searching, followed by Anurag. After sometime they found Kukki and Sneha both sleeping in the room and the same bed.

"SNEHA !!!!" Anurag shouted and tried to take Sneha in his arms. The whole commotion woke up Kukki. Anurag was about to pick up Sneha and Without a thought Kukki held his hand

"Mr Basu. Snehu so rahin hain. Back off!!!! Right now!!!!!" Kukki whispered as she didnt want to wake up Sneha. Anurag just moved Kukki's hand away and took Sneha in his arms who herself woke up by all this commotion and started crying hysterically at being separated from Kukki.

"KUDI!!!!!!!!!!KUDI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sneha shouted and tried to get out of Anurag's arms. Mr Mehra and kukki tried to stop him but he was not ready to listen. Just then Kukki tried to get up from her bed and because of the plaster she screamed in pain. Mr Bose ran to her side.

"Kukki !!!! Kuki!!! Are you okay??? Kaha tha na maine tumse inhe sirf apni bachi ki fikar hain. Tumhari koi fikar nahin hain. Lekin tumhe kaha meri baat samajh main aati hain. Dekh liya na aaj kya ho sakta tha tumhare saath. Dekh liya naa. Main kabse tumhe samjha raha tha par tumne meri baat nahin mani. Chalo chalo yahan se abhi" Mr Bose tried to pick up Kukki but the little girl screamed in pain. Mr Mehra didn't know what the hell he was supposed to do, where he was supposed to go, who he was supposed to stop. Just then a doctor came running hearing all this commotion.
