TALES OF THE HEART

TU HI DUA🎸

Haseena Malik reached to her home where ammi was waiting for her at the dining table.

"aa gayi... jaaiye jaldi se fresh n up ho jaaiye hum khana laga dete hain..."

"ammi hume bhook nahi hai aap khaa lijiye aur medicines le kar so jaaiyega..." Haseena said while moving towards her room.

"haan hum kaise bhool gaye... aaj toh monday hai. aaj toh tumhe vaha jaana hoga..." Ammi taunted her sarcastically to which she only smiled.

After some time, she returned back to the hall changing her uniform, holding a small handbag in her hand. "ammi hum thodi der mein aa jayenge... hamara wait mat kijiyega..." She said while leaving.

"beta kab tak... kab tak apni kishu ki yaadon mein rahogi... aage badh jaao... dekho toh zindagi kitni khoobsurat hai..." Ammi said worried about her.

"ammi hume pata hai zindagi khoobsurat hai... par kishu se zyada nahi... aur aap fikr na karein. hamari kishu hume wapas milegi... usne bola tha ki vo vapas aayegi..." Haseena tried to made her understand.

"aur tum uska intezaar pichle 21 saalon se kar rahi ho... bhool bhi gayi hogi vo toh tumhe..."

"ammi kaise baatein kar rahi hain aap... dil ke rishte kabhi bhoolte hain kya??" Haseena said with a genuine smile.

"Haseena kaise samjhayein tumhe hum... thak gaye hain hum toh..." Ammi sighed.

"ammi aap befikr rahiye... jab aap Kishu se milengi na toh aapko bhi samjh aa jayega ki vo kitni khaas hai..."

"haan khaas toh hogi hi... meri beti ne aaj tak ek bhi dost nahi banaye hain Kishu ke jaane ke baad..." Ammi said sarcastically but in a worried tone.

Haseena kissed her forehead and smiled. "ammi hum chalte hain... good night."

Meanwhile,

"hello... ji maa.. haan hum bass aa hi rahe hain ghar..."

"Salary mili?"

"maa aaj dusra din tha... abhi se salary kaise mil jaayegi?" She said politely.

"aur pichle mahine ki salary??"

.............

"bolo chup kyu ho gayi maharani??? kahan uda diye paise?"

"maa vo..."

"haan isi liye tumhe itna padha likha kar afsar banaya tha ki tum kharche karti raho..."

"maa ghar aa kar baat karte hain..." She said with teary eyes.

"koi zarurat nahi hai aaj ghar aane ki... raho vahi par jaha ho..."

"hum kahan rahenge maa... is sheher mein abhi abhi aaye hain... koi pehchan wala bhi nahi hai aur paese bhi nahi hain...."
......She requested but the phone call disconnected. A tear rolled down from her eyes and she sat down on the bench.

Haseena Malik reached the same park where she had called Karishma some time ago. She parked her jeep, took the handbag and walked inside. But to her shock, Karishma was still there, sitting on a bench lost in her own thoughts.

"Karishma Singh? aap abhi tak yaha? ghar nahi gayi??" She asked suprisingly.

"aapko koi dikkat?? aur aap kaahe aayi hain yahan" She said irritated.

"hum toh aksar aate hain yaha...aap kuch pareshan lag rahi hain... kuch hua hai kya?" Haseena asked worriedly.

"nai kuch nai hua hai... hum ekdum badhiya hain..." Karishma replied looking away.
