Scarred Loyalties: A Friend's Betrayal

Ek Tara

Karishma wakes up and sees that someone has blocked her face, and she is almost falling from the bed. She removes the blockage and sees that it's Haseena's hand.
She looks at Haseena and sees that she is sleeping like a kiddo. Haath kahi aur, pair Kahin aur, sar Kahin aur. Karishma falls from the bed and makes a grumpy expression.
.
KS - Aise Bhi koi sota hai kaa? Kon kahega S.H.O hai yeh. Upar se kal. ( chuckles) Kal kya popat kiya tha unhone.(🥲)
.
KS calls someone.
.
Receiver- Yes mam, aapne abhi call kiya, kuch changes karna hai kyaa plan mai?
.
KS- Ji nai bas yeh puchna chahte the ki.......
.
Receiver- Ji mam, jaisa aapne kaha ho jayega.
.
KS- Dnahnywad (cuts the call)
.
HM comes out and hugs KS from the back.
.
HM- Good morning Karu.
.
KS- Ji Good morning. Breakfast bana le hum?
.
HM- Nai hum banayenge aaj.
.
KS- MS aapko aata hai na?
.
HM- Ji banana jaante hai, kabhi try nai kiya hai. Toh aaj kar lete hai.
.
KS- Nai nai, (thinking - pta chala thaane jaane ke layak hi naa bache) Aapko aaj hum Poha bana ke khilate hai.
.
HM- Okay.
.
After breakfast, they go to the station and after their duty hours, HM persuades Karishma to go for a drive.
.
HM- Karishma please, chaliye naa...
.
KS- Amaa theek hai. Kahan jaana hai.
.
HM- Thode outside mai ek farm hai, wahaan chalte hai. XYZ wahaan sabse best khaana aur view hai. Aap bhut thak gayi hai Karishma, aaj thode maze lijiye.
.
KS- Aapko kya farak padhta hai.
.
HM thinking- Hume toh lagta tha, ki hum tana dene mai ache hai, par yahan toh yeh humari senior nikili 😒.
Khadoos
.
KS- Hume sunayi aa rha hai, hum jeep nikalte hai. Aap aa jayega.
.
HM- Jeep? Hum aapki Bike mai jaa rahe hai.
.
KS- ( Gaya humara Petrol) (annoyed)Thik hai.
.
KS comes with her bike and HM comes out with a bag. She connects her phone with Bluetooth. And after a few minutes, HM puts one earpod in Karishma's ear and another in her ears.
.
HM- Bore lag raha hoga na, pta hai jab hum off duty rehte hai toh gaane sune bina reh nai paatey. Hum play kar rahe hai.
.
Haseena plays ektara. She keeps her chin on Karishma's shoulder, Karishma almost gets unbalanced but balances the bike quickly.
.
HM- Relax Karishma, hum Haseena hi hai.
.
KS blushes a bit and HM sees this through the rear mirror and smiles.
Then she keeps her head on Karishma's back and clutches Karishma in her arms.
The view was imaginary like they have entered a new whole world. Haseena insist Karishma to sing with her. And both sing Iktara together, looking at the beautiful nature around them, the sunset was making it more beautiful. They are enjoying after a month and that too, first time with each other. This was very special for them as they never got time to explore together. Haseena was looking at Karishma through the rearview. And looking at the face who was feeling stress-free after ages. Karishma was busy looking at the beauty. They were silent during the whole trip, but their silence was speaking a lot of things. They were enjoying each other's company. Peace.
"Tujh sa hai koi ektara"
This line was memorizing them about their beautiful journey. How they became each other's strength without knowing it. How they fought with each other but used to forget everything when someone falls into trouble. How their relationship grew within 2 years. That's impossible for both of them. As they never used to get attached to someone easily.
HM thinking ( Itna maan, itni izzat, itna pyaar, Karishma, kaise koi itna acha ho sakta hai. Itna bada dil, hum deserve nai karte, aapke jaisa dost bhut kismat walon ko milta hai, aur humari khushkismati thi, ki hume aapka saath mila,  Karishma.)
.
KS thinking (MS aap sirf humari senior nai hai, aap humara liye, humari kahani ka ek bhut bada paath hai. Ek aisa kissa jo jitne baar suno, Khushi milti hai. Aapke paas rehte hai toh sukoon milta hai, shanti rehti hai. Aap nai thi toh bhauklaa gaye the hum. Badal gaye the hum, aap rehti hai toh khud ko dhundh paate hai. Wajood hai aap humara. Maddam Sir Wajood. Bhut khushkismat hai hum, jo aapse mile. Par shayad yeh adhyay yahi sampath hoga, bhut miss karenge aapko, I, I love you Maddam Sir, Aap hai toh hum hai.)
.
HM - Pta hai aap bhi humare liye ek taare ki tarah hai, sabse sunhera, sabse alag, sabse payaara aur sabse keemti. Aap na precious hai Karishma aapko pta hai? Aur humare liye bhut jayda. Everything was so complicated, hum ek saath kaam nai kar sakte the, par humara telepathy judh jaana. Woh aapka dialogue, hum akele kamaal hai par saath mil jaaye toh bhukaal hai. Humara photoframe jo aapne humko gift ki thi. Woh sab bhut keemti hai humare liye. Maaf kijiyega woh photo frame accident ke time pe damaged ho gayi. Hume anubhav ne kaha tha jo jaruri lagey woh le ke jaiye toh humne usko bhi utha liya tha (bites her tounge) Sorry ( makes a puppy face) Aap sachi mai humari liye ek tara ki tarah hai, par ab shayad woh taare ke gayab hone ka samay aa gaya hai. Koi baat nai (wipes her tear) aapki yaadein hamseha rahegi humare paas. Agar koi toota tara dikha toh aapki hi farmaish karenge Karishma.
.
KS (removes her earphone) Maddam Sir aapne kuch kaha kya abhi? Aap yeh gaana baja rahi thi aur hawa aa raha tha toh hume kuch sunayi nai diya. Kaa bol rahi thi aap.
.
HM- Aapne kuch nai suna?
.
KS- Nai, suna hota toh repeat karne kaahe bolte. (Shrugs her shoulders)
.
HM- Nai hum bol rahe the thoda dheere chalaiye.
.
KS- Acha theek hai.
.

And after an hour they reach the farm. Haseena has slept on Karishma's back.
.
KS- Maddam Sir uthiye, Bike mai aise sona nai chahiye.
.
HM- Sorry humari aakh lag gayi thi, chaliye andar chalte hai.
.
KS- Ji
.
Karishma enters the farm and sees the most beautiful sunset she has ever seen. The sun was going down near a swimming pool, surrounded by trees.
.
HM- Kaisa laga aapko yeh?
.
KS still admiring the place.
.
KS - Bhuth jayda sundar.
.
HM- Acha laga dekh kar. Chaliye kuch kha lijiye.
.
After having lunch, Haseena orders Icecream for them.
.
Haseena again takes the cream and puts it on Karishma's nose.
.
KS- MS, yeh khaane ke liye hota hai, na hi ke lagane ke (shooks her hand and was going to wipe it, but Haseena spreads the cream all over her face.)
.
KS - Aapko toh hum nai chodenge, ( Karishma takes her Ice cream and runs behind Haseena.) She chases all over the farm and reaches the pool. Karishma in her revenge didn't notice that there was a pool and Haseena pushes her)
.
HM- Kaisaa laga humara mazaak.
.
KS- bhut bura (gowns)
.
HM helps her to come out, but Karishma pulls her into the pool.
And they start fighting in the pool by splashing water on each other.
.
HM-  Waise aapko ek baat batayen?
.
KS- Ji boliye
.
HM- Hum extra kapde nai laaye hai 😅.
(BGM Lag Gayi)
KS was looking at Haseena for any clue to get out of this situation. Haseena was looking at Karishma to find any solution. Their eyes were fixed on each other.
.
Wait for the next Part.
