(Virendra bent down & saw blood stains on his feet. He looked puzzled & looked back to Purvi. Yo ke hua......ye khoon........Virendra felt a little tensed. )

PURVI: Aap aayiye. Idhar bethiye. Rukiye.........(Purvi rushes to the bushes near the ground. She plucks some leaves & comes back.) Chaliye, jhootiyaan utariye.....

VIRENDRA: Ibb ye kar rahi hai, dawa laane ke bajaye yo ghaas phoos laga rahi. 

PURVI: Aap chup rahiye, pehle aur mujhe apna karne dijiye.....( Purvi crushes some leaves & puts them on the wound. He looks all dazed & confused. Purvi covered the entire wound with the leaves. She looked up & found Virendra looking confused.) Abb aise mat dekhiye, kya kata ye sochiye, aur kata bhi toh aapko pata kaise nahi chala, kaha khoye the aap, kiske khayalon mein, kaha aur kya soch rahe the jo aapko dard bhi nahi hua......(Virendra thinks of the moment when this happened. He imagines the moment when he pulled Purvi from her hands towards her. She was all cupped up in his arms. Her hair strands sticking on his face. Her hands all sticking on his shoulders. Her cheeks so close & almost touching his neck & ear. His hands on her waist. Her heartbeat all synching with his. Her eyes all closed & looked extremely beutiful.) Arreyy boliye naa...........( Virendra's thought was broken with Purvi's question.)

VIRENDRA: (little embarrased) Kisi ke naa, aur ibb tu jyada bak bak mat kar. Samjhi, chup karke jo kaam kar rahi hai wo kar. (Whispering..........Badboli bawri.......He saw Purvi turning the old leaves & applying the new ones again. She was all messed up. Her hairs were constantly disturbing her. She was adjusting her with a jerk by her shoulders. Then Purvi picked up her dupatta & torn a little long part & started wrapping around Virendra's feet.) Oye bawri, yo ke kar rahi hai......(Purvi ignored his shout & started covering the wound. Her hair were now coming near her eyes. She was quite irritated. Virendra was constantly watching this. Few seconds later, Virendra raised his hands, went near Purvi's face & pulled back her strands of hair that were disturbing her. She didn't paid any attention to them. Virendra slowly tucked her hair behind his ear lobe.He could feel the sweat that was on her neck, near her ears & on her face. The little tiny droplets were making her glow. He bowed down his hand. He saw that little strand was now waving near Purvi's neck. As the wind blowed a little faster, that strand got stuck on her neck near a small droplet of sweat.  Purvi didn't realise also what has just happened. He gave a blink smile. He didn't move his eyes. He kept staring the girl who was constantly struggling to make his wound heal by her add tactics...........BAWRI.................On hearing Bawri, Purvi suddenly looked at him with a jerk.)

PURVI: Kya bola aapne, Bawri, hum aapko bawri lagte hai kya...?? "Agar aapki ye bawri yaha naa hoti naa toh jiski waha se ye ghav hua hai naa, wo naa bhar pata. Humne aapka ghaav aur dard dono kam kar diya......hai naa......!!" 

VIRENDRA: Ibb thoda kam bola kar tu. Kitna bolti hai. Aur tera bahut bahut dhanyawad, tune yo kiya mere liye. 

PURVI: Dhanyawaad bolne ki zaroorat nahi hai aapko. Apne do baar hamari jaan bachai thi , aur iska ehsaan humne utaar diya. Bas. Aur waise bhi....kehte hai ki kisi ka ehsaan nahi lena chahiye, khaas kar tab jab wo aapke "MAUSA JI" ke umar ka ho.

VIRENDRA: Haan.......(Virendra didn't paid attention to what Purvi has just said. He halted & recalled.....MAUSA........And looked at Purvi straight) Mausa.......Ibb.....Ibb main tanne tere Mausa ki umar ka lagta hun........(He became little angry)

PURVI: (all confirmed.Little did she knew that what has she done.) Nahi nahi, unke jaise nahi, par aapki aur unki umar lagbhag ek hi hogi....

VIRENDRA: Oyyee chori, tere sar pe dimaag hai ke nahi....ajeeb hai.......itne hatte khatte insaan ki tulna apne Mausa se kare hai.......( He gave a slight hand raise on his moustache. )

PURVI: (thinking........Tao toh aise de rahe hai muchon ko jaise kahin bade tees maar khan ho)

(Gopi arrives there & suggests them to go home. Both Purvi & Virendra get up. While Gopi & Purvi go together; Virendra heads off towards his car. He turns to look Purvi who is busy talking to Gopi. He sits back.
Purvi turns to look at Virendra & sees him going away.)

(Next morning, in the haveli. A servant comes to collect some dirty clothes from Virendra's room. Ruk, yo kapda bhi le jaa........He hands the servant the piece of cloth that Purvi had tied in his feet. Ibb isko bhi saaf karke le aana, aur haan dhyaan rahe ibb kahin gum naa ho yo. Samjha, jaa.............The servant goes & Virendra is lost in his own thoughts.......)

"Agar aapki ye Bawri  naa hoti naa.................humne aapka ghaav aur dard.......door kar diya........"

Aapki Bawri, meri Bawri..............yo ke tha.........ke matlab tha iska...............

Kuch lagav sa mehsoos hua hai kisi ko mann mein; par kya ye lagaav jaga hai kisi aur ke bhi dil mein...........!!!

Kya ye lagaav layega Purvi aur Virendra ko kareeb........kya yahi lagaav hai.......jaha honge Puvri aur Virendra........hamesha ke liye ...............

PurVir........
