It was morning now. Virendra entered into the room & found Purvi sleeping on the floor. He felt bad for her.
" Laag raha Bawri kal yahi so gayi...Manne bhi ek baar usse baat kar leni chahiye thi...par ibb galti bhi hai uski...mere mana karne ka baad bhi wo NGO gayi..."
Purvi heard some noise & got up. Her eyes were red, swollen & deprived off sleep. It seemed that she had cried the whole night. Virendra saw this but due to the misunderstanding, he didn't say anything. He went to the washroom to get ready.
Virendra came of the room & was about to go downstairs when he decided to meet Juhi & Manas. He came there & saw them getting ready.
"Aare bacchon, school ke liye tayar...??"
Juhi & Manas looked at him & stood there.
" Baba, aap gussa ho naa...?? :
" Gussa...Nahi toh...!! "
" Baba, aap haath se toh gussa ho naa , jabki unki koi galti bhi nahi hai...!! "
" Galti naa hai...matlab...??"
" Han Baba...Haathi ko nahi pata tha ki aapne unko jaane se mana kiya hai...!! "
" Yo ke bol rahe ho tum log...?? "
" Haan Baba..Manas sahi keh raha hai...haathi ko nahi pata tha ki aapne unko jaane se mana kiya hai...warna wo kabhi bhi nahi jaati...Haathi ko poori baat Dhara mausi ne nahi batayi thi..." & they told the whole thing to Virendra. Virendra was shocked upon hearing the whole story.
" Juhi...Manas...chalo..." Purvi entered kids room & saw Virendra with the kids. Virendra got up from the bed & moved slowly towards Purvi. He remembered how he had shouted on her last night. He felt guilty about it. He was about to say something when Purvi moved from there & went to Juhi & Manas, picked up their bags & went out.
" Yo mere te ke ho gaya...manne Bawri ko bewahah daant diya...yo bhi na suna ki wo ke keh rahi thi...kya baat thi..Aur Dhara ne itna bada jhoot kyun bola...Dhara se toh main baad mein baat krunga...pehle manne Bawri ko manna padega...!! "
After sending Juhi & Manas to school, Purvi was entering into the hall when the landline rang. She picked up the call. The other side was the manager from the NGO who was asking her when she'll come to the NGO for final arrangements.
" Maaf kijiye, hum nahi aa payenge. Wo haveli mein hamein kuch kaam hai. Aap bakiyon ko bol dijiye..wo dekh lenge sab...humne samjha diya tha unhe saara...aur Haan...wo...." & she started explaining everything. She kept the phone after explaining every detail & went away.
Virendra was watching all this. He thought to himself....Bawri ne itni mehnat ki hai...bina galti ke manne itna suna diya uss te...Ibb main uski mehnat khaali naa jaane dunga...Manne kuch karna padega.
Purvi was settling her cupboard when Anjali came in there. She told her that everyone is going to the mela today. She should get ready too. Purvi said that she isn't feeling to go. But Anjali said that it's Jethji's order that everyone will go. So be ready.
" Mukhiji ne aisa kyun kaha...pehle khud hi to h mana kiya...aur abb..."
It was afternoon. Everyone was ready. Kids also came back from school and got ready. Everyone was coming one by one downstairs.
