Continued...

One and half month have been passed, not so smoothly. Hassena was missing Anubhav like hell. She wanted to scream and cry her heart out but was strong enough for their baby.

That day, was Hassena's God Bharai, Maa and Ammi were busy doing arrangements. Karishma's husband too was helping them as Hassena couldn't help them as Doctor recommended rest.

The House was full with ladies, relatives (most of them were just so called). Hassena was getting ready in the room. Santosh was helping her getting ready.

"Santosh aur kitna taiyar karogi hume? Hum thik lag rahe hai. Adha ghanta ho gaya hai", Hassena said being frustrated, and it was obvious for expecting lady.

"Are Maddamsir baas ho hi gaya. Aur aap thik nahi superb lag rahe ho", Santosh complimented, Hassena smiled at her antics.

Santosh's mobile rang.

"Maddamsir, aap yahi rehna main baas yeh call attend karke ayi", she said and exited the room.

At the same time, one Anubhav's relative entered inside the room. It was his maternal aunty (Mami). Hassena was checking on her saare when she saw Mami through the mirror.

"Are mami ji aap kabhi ayi room mein?", Hassena turned holding her baby bump.

"Yeh mere Bhaanje ka kamra hai kabhi bhi aa sakte hai hum, kyu? Hume tumhari ijajat ki jarurat hai kya?", She replied harshly.

"Mere kehna ka matlab yeh nahi tha...", Hassena said calmly.

"Rehne de! Vaise bhi yeh kamra mere bhanje ka hai. Teri ijajat ki jarurat nahi hai mujhe", she said coldly.

"Aap aaise kyu baat kar rahi hai?", Hassena asked calmly.

"Tu na aapna muh band hi rakh toh accha hoga. Ek toh shaadi ke turant baad mere bhaanje ko kha gayi. Mujhe toh abhi bhi yakin nahi ho raha ki teri kok mein hamare Anu ka baccha hai", Mami ji taunted.

"Surekha!", A loud voice echoed the room.

Maa was standing on the door with Santosh behind her. Santosh ran towards Hassena and held her shoulders eyeing Mami ji with anger in her eyes.

Hassena closed her eyes controlling her emotions. She wanted to tell Mami ji, to teach her a lesson but she was quite because it was Anubhav's aunt and an elderly lady. Her heart was breaking with each taunt his and her relatives were giving her. Her eyes filled with tears.

"Surekha tujhe kitni baar kaha hai ki Hassena ko aaisa maat keh, are bolne se pehle yeh toh soch liya kar ki voh pet se hai", Maa scolded Mami ji angrily.

"Kya Jiji aap bhi bohot bholi hai. Aap iss paraye dharam ki ladki ke liye aapni Bhabhi par chilla rahi hai?"

"Bahu hai voh hamari, main toh kahungi bahu se badhkar hai hamare liye!", Maa said coldly.

"Kahe ki Bahu Jiji? Aur aap keh rahe ho ki yeh apki beti hai? Yeh Beti jisne ate hi aapke bete ko nigal liya..."

Maa was gonna speak when Hassena started speaking.

"Vaise mujhe bolne ka hak nahi hai lekin fir bhi bol rahi hun... Mami ji, hamare Abbu bhi na Police mein constable the. Voh Desh ki seva karte karte Shahid ho gaye. Samajh ne, hamare ghar valon ne, Dadi ne aaise hi taane diye hamare Ammi ko jaise aap hume de rahi hai...", A tear rolled down her cheek. She quickly wiped the tear. "Lekin fir bhi hamari Ammi ne haar nahi maani. Hume padhaya, hume iss kabil banaya ki hum samajh ki raksha kar sake. Hum kar bhi rahe hai, isilye hume Anubhav se pyaar hua, jo khud se jyada desh se pyaar karte the. Shayad hum unme aapne Abbu ki parchai dekhte the.. Hume Yakin hai ki Anubhav zinda hai aur laut kar jarur ayenge. Aur agar hamara yakin jhoota bhi hua na toh hume garv hoga ki Anubhav iss desh ke liye Shahid hue hai, hume garv hoga ki hum unki patni hai...", She said, proud is cleary seen in her eyes with slight tears.

Hassena glanced at Maa who was looking at her with teary eyes.

"Samajh mein jab ek aurat ke pati ka swargwas hota hai tab uss patni ko hi dosh kyu diya jaata hai? Hume.... Aaj bhi yaad hai... Sirf barah saal ka tha hamara Anu jab Anu ke baba ka  swargwas ho gaya", Maa paused and looked at Mami. "Uss samay bhi aapne yahi kaha tha na Girish (Maa's brother) ko ki humare vajah se hi hamare pati...", Maa paused again as she remembered the past.

"Uss din Girish ne aapko thappad maar kar chup kara diya lekin afsos toh iss baat ka hai ki voh aapki soch ko itne saal baad bhi nahi badal paya...", Hassena hugged her. "Ek baat kaam khol kar sun lijiye Aap Hassena meri Bahu aur Beti hai, aur mujhe garv hai iss baat ka ki mere dono bacche desh se pehle kuch nahi dekhte.... Aapke liye Bhalai isi me hai ki aap yaha se chali jaye aur vapas kabhi maat ana", Maa said coldly hugging Hassena close.

Mami ji gave an angry glare to Hassena and left the room angrily. Hassena started crying there itself. Santosh held her shoulders for her support.

"Baas chup ho ja meri bacchi", Maa kissed her forehead.

"Hum bohot khush naseeb hai Maa ki hume Anubhav jaise Pati mile par usse bhi jyada khushi hume iss baat ki hai ki hume aap jaise saas mili hai", Hassena said breaking the hug.

Maa and Santosh smiled. Maa kissed Hassena's forehead and wiped her tears.

"Aap aapna mood maat kharab kar Uss Surekha ki vajah se... Uski baatein ansuni kar de", Maa said lovingly. "Kai baar umar ke saath saath budhi nahi badhti", Maa said and Santosh chuckled.

"Sahi toh keh rahi hai Aunty ji. Maddamsir main jaanti hun ki aaise bina kaam ke ghumne vale logon ke taane sunna asan nahi hai, par aapko strong rehna hai. Abhi bhi yaad hai mujhe, jab mere Papa meri shaadi aapne dost ke saath karane ki zid kar rahe the tab aapne hi kaha tha na... Samajh se jyada jaruri aa khud hote ho, toh kabhi bhi ussi samajh ki baatein ansuni kar deni chahiye, haina?", Santosh said.

Hassena nodded.

"Par hume ek baat ka afsos hamesha rahega Maa ki hamari vajah se aapka ek rishta toot gaya", Hassena said sadly.

"Meri bacchi, ek baar hamesha yaad rahe ki aaise rishtedaron se jitna ho sake utna door rehna chahiye, varna vahi rishtedar aapko andar se khokla kar denge.", She smiled and kissed her forehead once again. "Hassena, aur baat rahi rishton ki toh jitne rishte hai mere paas ussi mein khush hu main.", Maa said smiling.

Hassena smiled and nodded....

Kya aapko lagta hai ki Anubhav zinda hai? Kya Hassena ka intuition sahi hai? Ya fir ek bhram hai jo tut jayega? Janne ke liye bane rahiye... Bye....

Few more parts to go. Thank you so much for your support to this story. Pata hai kai logon ko yeh story boring lagti hogi par yeh samajh ka ek aaisa kadva sach dikhati hai jisse samajh se jaane mein shayad sadiyan lag jaye.

Ek insaan ki maut ka jimmedar uske partner ko manna kai baar galat hota hai. Log uss partner ko as 'Apshagun' manne lagte hai. Uss samay kabhi socha hai ki voh insaan kis halat se guzarta hai? Muh se nikle shabd kabhi vapas nahi liye ja sakte, voh baas samne vale insaan ko ya toh sukh dete hai ya fir asahniye pidha.

Sorry for any mistakes.

Agla part break khatam hone ke baad. It will take leap of some years.
