So sorry for the late update, guys 😔

I won't be able to update daily as I've a few assignments due these coming weeks.
But I will try to update once or twice a week.

So let's start the story..

--

Sid: Okay, before I start I want to say two things..
Pehli baat: Jo bi mein aapko batane wala hu please sirf aap tak rakhe. I don't want ke Monu ki life ke bure chapters ke bare me sub ko pata chale aur uski self-respect ko thes ponche..

Mrs. Batra: Itni serious baat hai kya, Sidharth?

Sid: Yes, ma'am.. And please wo sub sun ke itna ghabraiye mat Monu ab theek hai..

Col. Batra: Yes sure, Sidharth. We will handle the information confidentialy.. And the second point?

Sid: Thank you, Sir..
Aur doosri baat: If I get a panic attack, which I will get for sure, then please hold my right elbow and tell me to think about a good memory with Monu.. It will then take a few minutes for me to calm down but I will be fine afterwards..

Sanju: Tumho panic attacks aato ho? Kyu?

Sid: Yes, I get them whenever I talk or think about our past..

Faizi: Our past.. Matlab?

Sid: Mine and Monus past.. It's connected..

Col. Batra: Okay, we will keep that in mind. Will you please tell us about her life now?

Sid: Ji, sir.. So, our moms were childhood friends and always wanted to help others when grown-up. They both decided to join army medical college but due to some reasons my mom wasn't able to join. So instead she joined medical college and Monus mom joined the army medical college. But unki dosti par iska koi affect nahi hua. It was still strong.
Both pursued their degree and my mom started to work at the local city hospital while Monus mom became a highly ranked and excellent army doctor. And whenever time would allow her, she would take over some operations at the city hospital for free..
Monu and I were really close since childhood because our moms were best friends and whenever aunty ji had to go on a mission she would drop Monu at our house and Monu stayed with me the whole time.. Our childhood was really good, we had loving mothers who were our whole world.
But then my mom died in a car accident when I was only 10 years old. I was scattered and completely isolated myself from everyone except Monu and her mother. My father and I didn't have that kind of a good relationship from the start and after my mother's death our relationship got more worse. He started to work even more and I was mostly alone at home when I wasn't at Monus. So after that incident my whole world were Monu and her mother. And her mom really took care of me like I was her own son..
Then three years later, one day she had to go on a mission and this time too, she dropped Monu of my house. This time as well Monu stayed with me the whole time, but it wasn't the same as it had been when my mom would be with us.. We were both sad that her mom had to go on the mission but we understood that it was for the motherland so we had to compromise for that.. We were eagerly waiting for her return but one day we got to know that she died taking a bullet while saving her fellow companions..
Monu sirf 13 years ki thi jab usko uski mom ke shaheed hone ki chabar mili ti..
After getting the news she was completely broken and didn't speak a word for almost 3 months.. Not even with me..
That time was really hard for us both.. I lost my second mother and Monu lost her entire world. Monus relationship with her father was kind of the same as mine and my dad's and after aunty jis death uncle completely neglected Monu and only cared about his hospital..

I tried to be strong for me and Monu as I had already gone through the same but I also couldn't handle it..
So we just existed for almost three months doing everything half-heartedly.. But then I gathered myself up thinking our moms would be really disappointed with us if they would see us now.. I also tried to make Monu understand this but it took her more time to understand..
