TALES OF THE HEART

MULAQAT HO NA HO🎸

While Ammi was constantly banging her door, worried for her.

Upon finding everything not good, she decided to call Pushpa Singh.

"Pushpa ji...? Kuch hua hai kya? Aaj tu Karishma apne pyaar ka izhaar krne wali thi na...tu phir..." Ammi asked worriedly 

"Behenji! Maddam sir ne... Unhe naa keh di..." Pushpa ji told her in sad tone.

"Kya?? Naa...naa kaise keh sakti hai vo...hum baat karte hain usse" ammi said hanging up the call.

Upon Spending a couple of hours of crying on  the street, Karishma stood up sat on her bike and went to her place.
She directly entered her room and fell down on the bed perpendicularly, still crying. She clutched her pillow tightly and cried whole night.

While Haseena too came out of the bathroom later and shedded tears till morning.

In the morning, Ammi again knocked the door.

"Haseena... Darwaza kholo...!!!" She was calling loudly.

Haseena opened the door. Ammi looked at her tear stricken, paleface and swollen red eyes clearly stating what she did whole night.

"Haseena... Tumne... Tumne Karishma ko...?" Ammi asked.

"Ammi hum thane jaa rahe hain... Khuda hafiz.!" She said turning her face avoiding the eye contact but Ammi held her wrist, dragged her inside the room the made her sit.

"Jo kuch bhi tumne kal kiya hume batane ki zehmat karogi tum??" Ammi asked.

"Kya batana hai ammi??"

"Vo bacchi... Tumse itna pyaar karti hai jitna shayad hi koi kisi se kar sakta ho... Aur tumne... Tumne dil tod diya uska...?? Kyun Kiya aisa???"

"Kyuki hume unse muhabbat nai hai ammi!" She replied straight.

"Hamari aankhon mein dekho... Aur bolo ki tumhe usse mohabbat nai hai!!!" Ammi said in a little angry tone.

Haseena Malik could master all the emotions. She couldn't even let her eyes tell the truth and now when she herself didn't know the truth that she had fallen for Karishma and was in love with her, then it had become easy for her to lie to Ammi which in her perspective was not a lie at all.

"Humne aap sab se boht baar kaha tha k Karishma aur Hamare beech sirf dosti ka rishta hai jise hum umr bhar nibhane ko tayyar thy... Hume unse muhabbat nai hai ammi... Nai hai muhabbat hume unse..." She answered while tears spurted down from her eyes.

"Tu phir kyun ro rahi ho?? Kis baat ka dukh hai tumhe...??tumhari Nazar mein tu accha kiya hai tumne jo bhi kiya hai!!!" Ammi asked.

"Hum... Hum nai ro rahe hain ammi..." She said hiding her eyes.

"Kab tak khud ko dhoka deti rahogi??aur dikkat kya hai tumhari!!!" Ammi said out of frustration.

"Hamari dikkat ye hai ammi ki hum kisi aur se mohabbat nai kar sakte hain... Humari mohabbat Kishu hai Ammi...!!!" She shouted on the same pitch.

"Hume maaf kar dijiye ammi... Hume aapse is tarah baat nai karni chahiye thi...abhi filhal ke liye is baat ko yahi khtm karte hain...hume der ho rahi hai" Haseena said calmly.

She moved outside leaving ammi bewildered as well as helpless.

Isha woke up in the morning and directly went to Karishma's room out of curiosity.

"Karishma di!! Kaisi rahi aapki date??" She asked Karishma who was getting ready for the station.

"Hmm achhi thi" she answered.
"Karishma di...kuch hua kya??" Isha asked looking at her face.
