RISHTA : EK DOR

10. 8 YEARS AGO

Before I can go inside, I saw that Purvi went inside and sat beside Pihu. I wanted to join them but then I was reminded of Daya sir's words. So I didn't went inside.

Instead I went to the guest house outside our house. I sat on the bed and recalled what happened back then. We were a happy family until that day came in our life.

Everyone was in bureau working except Daya sir. He went out for some work. Time passed by and that day passed. Shreya tried calling Daya sir many times, but sir didn't picked up, so she was a bit worried for her husband.

'Kya hua di..? Aap itne pareshaan kyun hai..?' I asked.

'Vo Daya.. Vo abhi tak ghar nahi aaye..' Shreya replied me.

'Kya..? Magar abhi tho aadhi raat hone ko aaya hai.. Ho sakta hai ki jiju ko abhi kuch zaroori kaam ho.. Vaise bhi tumhe pata hai na ki CID mei der raat tak...' I tried to convince my sister so that she can be relaxed.

Shreya left inside and then I went to my wife, my life, my jaan. I was adoring her beauty and was playing with her hair and we slept in each others arms. The next day morning, we went to bureau while Shreya went somewhere.

After few days, I was working on laptop in our bedroom when my wife came and said, ' Kavin, mujhe aapko kuch batana hai..'

But before we can talk, we heard a vase breaking sound. So, we quickly went downstairs. We saw Shreya and Daya sir fighting.

'Maine aapko ek mahina diya aur vo waqt khatam ho gaya.. Aap itne dinon mei koi saboot ikkatha nahi kar paaye.. Mai kaise maan lu ki aap sach bol rahe hai..' Shreya said finally opening her up.

'Shreya maine aisa kuch nahi kiya..' Daya sir tried to speak only to get interrupted by Shreya.

'Bas.. Ab mai ek bhi nahi sunungi..' Shreya said and turned her back towards sir.

I went near Shreya and asked about the reason behind their fight. Shreya showed me some pics and I was shocked to see the pics. Daya sir was lying beside another woman. I looked at Daya sir and forwarded the pics to my wife.

The pics got circulated to everyone (except Aadi and Muskaan who were 4 and 2 years old back then). Everyone looked at Daya sir.

'Mai jaanti hu ki Daya sir aisa nahi kar sakte, isliye maine inhe ek mahine ka waqt diya taaki yeh khud ko saabit kar sake.. Lekin ek mahine hone ke baad bhi kuch nahi hua..' Shreya said finally bursting into tears.

'Shreya..' Daya sir spoke and I interrupted in between.

'Iska matlab aap ne di ko DHOKHA DIYA.. Aapko ek mahine ka waqt diya hai aur ab bahut hua.. Shreya di, Dushyant, Ishita, Purvi apna apna samaan pack karo.. Hum yeh ghar chod ke jaa rahe hai..' I said.

'Lekin..' My wife spoke.

I didn't listened anything and just went to our room and started packing my luggage. Even Shreya di, Dushyant also were packing. Ishita also packed her belongings.
I took a suitcase and I was about to pack my wife's luggage but she stopped me.

'Hume der ho rahi hai jaan..' I said and opened her wardrobe.

'Kavin.. Dekho mai jaanti hu..' She spoke while I interrupted.

'Purvi, ab us baare mei kuch bhi baat mat karo.. Baat bahut aage nikal chuka hai.. Ab tumhe mujhe ya Daya sir mei se kisi ek ko chun na padega..' I said closing my suitcase.

'Daya bh..' She said and then I took my luggage and then stopped at the room door. I didn't turn back but said..

'Mai airport pe tumhara intezaar karunga.. Aayi tho thik hai nahi tho mai samjhunga ki tumne mujhse saare rishte tod diye..' I left from there.

I went to the airport with my small family and we left to London. I kept waiting for my wife missing a flight but she didn't show up.

I came out of my thoughts. I stood up and went to the cupboard as I wanted to divert my mind. I found a CD and then I played it. I thought it was a movie but then I was wrong.

Abhijeet sir and Daya sir were standing infront of each other, looking at eachother.

'Daya, mai samajh sakta hu ki..' Abhijeet sir spoke.

'Abhijeet plz mujhe thodi der akele chod do..' Daya sir said.

'Daya.. Shaant ho jao.. Dekho vo log gusse mei the..' Abhijeet sir again spoke.

'Gusse mei the ya nahi, mujhe nahi jaan na.. Mujhe bas is baat ka afsoos hai ki Shreya mujh pe trust nahi karti..' Daya sir said.

'Aisa nahi hai Daya.. Dekh, Shreya tumse pyaar karti hai..' Abhijeet sir said.
