CHAPTER 111 NURTURING US

Sidharth was madly shocked to see Shehnaaz behaving like that and believing on the pictures and videos sent by a random person she didn’t even know properly..
Kaushal was working on this matter and got the information of the cameraman.. He didn’t have a proper address and this made Kaushal suspicious..
“Sidharth, ye naam to mil gaya hai but proper address nai mil raha hai.. I will get this man soon and will get the necessary information.. You don’t worry and yes, don’t let any misunderstanding come between you both… You guys need to stay strong and united when someone is trying to break you apart..” explained Kaushal but Shehnaaz needed to understand this at the moment.. She was the one who was reacting, not him…
“Haa to usko samjha na, har baar tu mujhe hi bolta hai.. Galat hai ye.. mere pe bhadak rahi hai, door jaa rahi hai.. Kya karu mai? Mera bhi dimag sadhta hai..” said Sidharth and disconnected the call..
Kaushal decided to find out everything first and then talk to Shehnaaz..
Naira and Rita Maa were into the matter too and were in touch with Kaushal as they both were worried for Sidharth and Shehnaaz..
“Naira, Aunty ji.. Aap dono fikar mat karo.. Mai sab pata lagwa lunga..”
“Okay, please keep us informed..” said Naira..
Kaushal was doing his best to know who was behind everything and Sidharth was with Shehnaaz’s family, talking to them about Dadi and Shehnaaz just ignored him all through this while..
The doctor came out and informed them, “Ma’am ab danger se bahar hai.. Bas unko oil, butter wagera khana band karna hoga… Cholesterol badh gaya hai isliye unko problem ho rahi hai.. Sugar ka problem abhi tak nai hai lekin wo bhi kam kar denge to better hoga.. Unko hosh aa gaya hai, mil sakte ho.. Aaj ki raat aur kal sham tak observation me rakhenge uske baad discharge kar denge..” informed the doctor and walked away..
Everyone went in to see Dadi and Sidharth stood next to Shehnaaz… She happened to hug her mom.. “Puttar, kya hua hai tujhe?” asked Mom.. “Kuch nai Maa, bas ajeeb sa lag raha hai..”
Sidharth heard this but at the moment, he decided to stay shut.. Dadi felt happy seeing Shehnaaz and Sidharth next to her, “Tum dono bhi aa gaye..”
“Kaise ho Dadi? Fikar na karo, doctor ne kaha hai jaldi thik ho jaoge..” said Shehnaaz holding her hand and kissed it.. Sidharth just stayed close to her and smiled at her… Many things were going into his mind..
Who was trying to get in between them all of a sudden.?  He wanted to hug Shehnaaz and tell her everything which was happening but she wasn’t even looking at him…
“Kya ho raha hai? sab thik hai?” asked Baaz sensing the distance between them.. “Kuch nai Chotey.. Bas aaj kal anjaan logo ki baato pe zyada bharosa hone laga hai.. Kuch zyada hi dikhne laga hai…” taunted Sidharth..
Mommy Gill came and asked them to go home, “Aap sab ghar jao, mai Maa ke sath ruki hu.. Dada ko leke jao.. Khana bana di hu.. Khaa lo aur unko sambhal lena bas..”
Baaz stayed back with Mommy Gill and Sidharth, Shehnaaz, Papa Gill and Dada went home with the driver..
The drive was short and silent.. Shehnaaz did as told by her mom. Sidharth took his bag which had Shehnaaz’s clothes as well since she left from the set directly.. He went into Shehnaaz’s room and didn’t come out…
Shehnaaz made Papa Gill and Dada eat dinner and packed food for Baaz and Mom and gave it to the driver..
She came back to the dining table and saw that Dada wasn’t eating, “Dadu, khaa lo na.. Dekho doctor ne bole na ki Dadi ki tabiyat abhi sahi hai.. Please..” said Shehnaaz and made a bite and fed Dadaji with her hands..
“Ab bas Puttar..” said Dadaji after a few bites and went to sleep.. Papa Gill slept with him as he was already stressed for Dadi.. He didn’t want to leave him alone..
Shehnaaz made a plate and took it in her room and gave it to Sidharth.. “Nai khana hai mujhe..” said Sidharth and walked out of the room, to the terrace..
Sidharth lit up a cigarette in the terrace and smoked 2 back-to-back.. Shehnaaz changed her clothes and Sidharth’s phone which was on the bed, rang.. She picked it up since it was Kaushal..
“Sidharth, pata chal gaya wo kaun hai jo tum dono ko alag karna chahta hai aur door karna chahta hai ek dusre se..” said Kaushal without knowing it was Shehnaaz who picked up the call..
“Kya? Alag karna chahta hai? kaun hai wo?” said Shehnaaz..
“Shehnaaz, Tu? Sun meri baat..” said Kaushal and told her everything.. She disconnected the call and sat on the bed with a thud.. She was shocked to know what actually happened..
She wiped her tears but couldn’t stop crying.. She carried the food to the terrace knowing her would be there.. “Sidhaarthhh..” She cried and that’s it.. He couldn’t take her tears..
He turned around, took the plate from her hand and held her in his arms, “Ro mat please.. Nai dekha tujhe rota hua..” said Sidharth, rubbing her back..
She rested her head on his chest but her tears didn’t seem to stop.. She was guilty of not trusting Sidharth.. She was guilty of getting in the trap of someone else who was trying to break them..
“I am sorry sidharth.. I am so sorry.. Tujhpe bharosa nai karne ke liye..” said Shehnaaz coming out of his chest and looked into his eyes as she apologized…
“Shushhh, bas.. Relax kar..” said Sidharth and took the plate of food in his hand and fed her.. “Khana khaa le, I don’t want you to skip meals..” said Sidharth and she ate..
She went down and got food for him and he had come back to the bedroom by then… She gave him the plate and walked away, unable to face him..
He understood but he was hungry so he ate first and kept the plate on the table.. He opened his bag, took out clothes for both of them and kept her clothes next to where she was sitting..
She saw but wasn’t able to talk to him.. He changed his clothes and went to sleep.. He saw that she didn’t change her clothes, “Kapde change kar lo, aur so jao..” said Sidharth..
He was being sweet earlier so that she eats.. She had just come back from the hospital so he cared for her health even when angry…
Her heart ached at his cold tone but she knew she was wrong and he had full rights to stay angry at her.. She did as told and lay on the bed..
Sidharth faced his back towards her and tried sleeping.. Shehnaaz tried coming close to him, hugging him from behind but he jerked her hand off, softly.. “Mujhe sone do.. Disturb mat karo.. Jaake aur photos aur videos dekh lo..” said sidharth…
“Sidharth.. Tu janta hai mai nai dekh sakti tujhe kisi aur ke sath.. Jis tarike se tu pass me tha Riya ke, nai dekha gaya mujhse.. Aur tune uska chehra pocha, usko hug kiya.. Mai kya karu fir..” said Shehnaaz..
He sat up on the bed, “tum mujhse baat karti.. Mai batata actually kya hua tha.. Lekin tumko to apne lagne pe hurt hona hai.. Dimag ka istemal karna nai hai aur faltu me hurt hona hai.. Har baar yehi hota hai.. Jitna bhi pyaar jata du, tumhara ye hurt hona rukta hi nai hai..” growled Sidharth…
“Chilla kyu raha hai.. Khud ulti seedhi harkate karta hai aur bhadak mere pe raha hai.. Mai kaise aayi hu yaha mai janti hu.. Mai kitna roi hu isse tujhe farak nai padhta.. Tune kyu bola ki I don’t kiss and tell.. Kya kiya tune.. Mai tere khud ki boli hui baat se hurt hu.. Khud bol raha hai khulle me to mai kya samjhu isse..” said Shehnaaz keeping her point in front of Sidharth and was about to cry again..
Sidharth held his head in his hand, “Fuck!” he groaned and walked out of the room and headed towards the terrace again..
Shehnaaz followed him and held his t-shirt’s collar, “Ye kya har baari bhag raha hai.. Samne khada reh ke baat kar.. Meri galti maan rahi hu ki photos videos pe bharosa kari, lekin ye jo tune khud bola uska kya?” said Shehnaaz, tears rolling down her eyes and she left his collar and sat on the chair..
