CHAPTER 155 NURTURING US

Sidharth somehow managed to calm Shehnaaz down and her phone rang.. It was Rehan..
Sidharth picked up the call, “Hey Man.. How are You?” Asked Sidharth.. “Hey bro, I’m good.. How are you?” Replied Rehan..
“I’m good too.. All the best for your song release.. Here, talk to Shehnaaz..” said Sidharth, handing over the phone to her..
She took the phone and murmured a casual hi.. “Sana, tu kafi low sound kar rahi hai.. Sab thik hai na?” Asked Rehan..
“Haa, mai thik hu.. bura mat manna, lekin kuch urgent hai kya? Mai thoda sa busy hu..” said Shehnaaz and Rehan had just called her because he was in Bombay..
“Nai, urgent nai hai kuch.. Bombay aaya tha plus do din baad hamara promotional shoot hai Dance Deewane ke set pe..” said Rehan, very well understanding that her mood was definitely off..
“Acha chal, shoot pe milte hai.. Tu bas thik reh, okay? Kuch lage to text or call..” said Rehan and Shehnaaz disconnected the call..
Sidharth took her in his arms, “Meri Jaan, please stop thinking.. Tu shaant reh.. Abhi time hai.. Ken se milna hai costume trail ke liye aur Kabir Naira ka mamla bhi sort out karna hai dinner pe..” said Sidharth and Shehnaaz looked at him..
“Shehnaaz, meri jaan.. Baat ko samjh.. Mai insensitive nai ho raha hu.. Mind divert karna zaruri hai.. Chal mere sath..” said Sidharth and They walked to the car.. Adith drove them to Kens studio and Shehnaaz was clung onto him all through the way.. “Mera Bacha..” cooed Sidharth, pulling her closer.. He pressed his lips on her forehead and she stayed close to him..
Shehnaaz was in a different mindset all together.. She was angry at Sidharth but she needed him as well..
They reached Ken’s studio and she wasn’t in the mood to take trails with such mood.. “Baba, thoda sa mood change hoga.. Sab acha hoga.. Mai hu na tere sath..” Sidharth tried his best to motivate her..
“Tu kya hi bolega tu.. Khud kuch bhi bol deta hai.. Ab bolta hai mai hu tere sath.. Kya karu tere sath ka? Gandagi sunne ke liye rahu tere sath?” Scoffed Shehnaaz, getting down from the car.. She walked to Ken’s studio, hugged him tight..
“You okay, Barbie?” Asked Ken and she smiled.. “Haa, sab changa hai.. Chal do din shoot ke outfit hai.. Ek Kapil, ek Dance Deewane.. Fir Arshad ke show ka mujhe pata nai hai kitna outfit lagega.. Tu reality shows karta hai, us hisab se kar ke dede..” said Shehnaaz..
Ken looked out for Sidharth, Shehnaaz saw Ken and said, “Aa jaega.. Bahar hi hai..”
Sidharth was stuck inside the car.. He was definitely guilty but he also knew that she wasn’t wrong in being angry at him.. He was thinking about the statement he blurted out.. He felt more guilty when she left without him..
Ken handed her the outfits and she was waiting for Sidharth.. When a married couple fights, things are different.. You fight because of one thing but that doesn’t reflect in the other things..
Ken understood that she wasn’t taking the trails because she was waiting for Sidharth so he called him and asked him to come inside his studio.. Sidharth walked in, silently and Shehnaaz started wearing the clothes.. She wasn’t smiling and he was the reason for it..
Ken walked to his cabin, working on other designs, leaving Sidharth and Shehnaaz inside the trail room alone..
Shehnaaz wore a suit which had a zip on the back and it was difficult for her to zip it up.. He walked close to her and hugged her from behind.. She didn’t stop him but also, didn’t hug him back.. He pressed his lips on her neck and then, zipped up her suit..
Shehnaaz wasn’t in the mood to be sweet to him at all.. His health was fine and so she was back to being upset..
After finishing the trail, Shehnaaz thanked and hugged Ken, grabbed her outfits in her hand, not letting Sidharth hold it for her and walked straight to the car.. She kept the clothes in the boot and walked to the driver’s seat, “Adith, tu jaa peeche baith.. Mai chala rahi hu abhi..” said Shehnaaz..
Sidharth had his clothes ready so he walked behind her as fast as he could and saw Adith standing outside, the boot was open so he wasn’t able to see someone was already seated in the driving seat..
“Shehnaaz kaha hai?” Asked Sidharth, while putting his clothes inside.. “Bhabi drive karenge bole.. Aap baitho aage..” said Adith and Sidharth quickly walked towards the car..
Adith sat on the back seat and Shehnaaz started driving.. It was afternoon and the traffic was very less..
Shehnaaz drove fast and Sidharth tried to stop her, “Baby, araam se.. Please..”
Shehnaaz glared at him and suddenly a car in front of them.. Sidharth held the steering wheel and saved them from meeting with an accident..
“Sidharth, tu chup reh.. Mujhe distract mat kar..”
“Baby, tu slow chal na.. Mai kaha mana kar raha hu chalane ko.. Chala tu car. Lekin araam se meri jaan..” said Sidharth, being very patient with her because he knew she was mad at him..
Shehnaaz drove a little slower but her speed was still high.. Sidharth stayed shut and Shehnaaz stormed on the roads of Bombay in his BMW and they reached home safely..
“Bhabi, aap ghar jao.. Mai park kar deta hu..” offered Adith once they reached home.. She agreed and opened the boot, grabbed her clothes bag..
“Shehnaaz, rehne de na.. gussa kar lekin ye mai utha leta hu na darling..” said Sidharth, walking behind her leaving his clothes in the car.. Neetu di was in the lift and she saw Shehnaaz lifting her bags and Sidharth running behind her..
“Diidii..” cooed Shehnaaz and kept the bags in the lift and hugged Neetu Dii..
“Hello Mera bacha.. Tujhse hi milne aayi thi aur tu lift me hi mil gayi..” Said Neetu Di and then Sidharth was about to enter the lift when she stopped her, “Sid, saman hai aur jagah nai hai.. Tu baad me aa.. Mai tere sath lift me nai rehna chahti..” said Neetu Di very coldly..
Shehnaaz felt guilty because his own family members were not talking to him properly including herself and this pinched her heart.. Sidharth didn’t say anything and let them use the lift..
He was so frustrated that he walked towards the stairs and climbed the twelve floors like a maniac, irritated and frustrated..
“Didi, aap itna gussa mat karo na.. Mai kar rahi hu na ab.. Wo bimar tha tab thik thi uske sath, ab mai nai baat kar rahi.. Lekin aap aise bhadkoge uspe toh wo toot jaega..” said Shehnaaz and Neetu di looked at her in disbelief.. “Tu Sidharth ki tarafdari kar kaise sakti hai? Jo usne tujhe bola won thik tha? Tu abhi bhi uske hi bare me soch rahi hai..” said Neetu Di and they walked out of the lift..
Neetu Dii grabbed a bag and Shehnaaz as well..
No matter how angry she was, the thought of Sydney project, staying away from Sidharth and also the whole family.. Sidharth’s words.. Everything was in her mind..
“Chal, aake mere pass reh do din..” offered Didi and Mom opened the door..
“Neetu, I know you are madly upset at Sidharth but that is not the right way to take her home… Tu gussa hai, thik hai.. Mai Sidharth ka favor nai kar rahi hu lekin tu bhot zyada bhadak rahi hai uspe..” said Mom and Neetu Di got upset with Mom..
They walked into the house and Shehnaaz hugged Mom.. She told Mom and Neetu about the Sydney project and they forgot about Sidharth.. The doorbell rang, Shehnaaz suddenly realised that Sidharth had not come home yet.. As she opened the door, It was Adith with Sidharth’s clothes.. “Sidharth kaha hai?” Asked Shehnaaz, looking outside..
“Nai pata Bhabi, mai toh Parking se direct aaya..” said Adith and he called him at the moment., “Bhai, kidhar ho?” Asked Adith and Shehnaaz snatched the phone from him and Sidharth stayed shut..
“Aa raha hu..” was the only Thing he said and Shehnaaz gave Adith his phone back and as she turned away, She saw Sidharth coming Into the corridor, the door opened and he walked In..
“Sidhaaarrthhh.. Kya kiya tune?” Asked Shehnaaz and he looked away.. Adith walked back, Sidharth came close to Shehnaaz and she saw him all sweaty and his breaths were heavy.. Climbing twelve floors Is not at all a joke..
She didn’t say anything and let him In.. Mom and Didi looked at him and Shehnaaz ran Into the kitchen, getting a bottle of water and gave It to him..
“Ye pee..” said Shehnaaz and turned towards Mom and Didi, “Ye seedhi se aaya hai..” said Shehnaaz..
Neetu Di regretted getting angry at him and because of that he climbed the stairs.. “Are you mad?” Didi growled at him and Shehnaaz wiped the sweat off his face..
“Tum sab ne mujhe pareshan kar ke rakha hai.. Ek gusse me kuch bhi bol deta hai, ek confused hai ki wo naraz hai ya nai hai.. Aur ye, meri beti.. Itna gussa kar rahi hai aur fir daat rahi hai  Sidharth ko.. Kya karna chah rahe ho teeno? Also, Naira Kabir.. Sab ne milke mujhe pareshan karne ka plan banaya hai.. Mai jaa rahi hu Preeti ke ghar..” said Mom, Sidharth stopped him, “Mom, please ab aap mat jao.. Preeti aane wali hai dinner pe.. Ruk jao, sab chale jana mujhe chor ke.. Ek baar Kabir Naira ka finalize karma hai..” said a frustrated Sidharth.. He walked Into the room and Shehnaaz was really confused on what she wanted to do.. “Mai jati hu uske pass..” said Shehnaaz and Didi didn’t stop her.. She made a quick Lassi for Sidharth and walked Into the room..
Sidharth was Into his shorts and no tshirt, laying on the bed with his arms on his head.. He knew Shehnaaz had come because he was awake and he heard the door click open..
“Sidharth..” cooed Shehnaaz, very softly.. He opened his eyes and looked at her..
“Shehnaaz, I don’t know If I deserve this.. Maine ye pehle bhi bola hai lekin mai har baar kuch na kuch galti kar deta hu.. Mat ho soft mere sath.. Akela kar de meko.. Jaa yaha se..” said Sidharth, Making Shehnaaz upset but she knew him..
Shehnaaz walked close to his side of the bed and kept the Lassi on the side table.. She cupped his face, “Bas kar.. Bho faltu bol raha hai.. Chup kar jaa ab.. Deserve wali baat tu pehle bhi bola tha.. Ab dusri baar bol raha hai.. Ab agar bola to chittar parenge..” said Shehnaaz and gestured him to sit..
She handed him the Lassi and he gulped It down silently..
