Scene starts at a Dhaba,
It was midnight and a girl was working there alone. It was the closing time.
A boy of 10 years of age in torn clothes came to the girl.
The boy came to the dhaba as he was hungry.
The boy: Didi....bohot bhukh lagi hain. Thoda sa khana de do na. Kuch bhi chalega. Bacha kucha jo bhi ho...main kha loonga didi.
The girl: Thik hain. Tum yahi ruko.....main abhi kuch bana kar laati hoon.
The boy sat down on a chair arranged at a table.
The girl quickly prepared food for the boy and served hot food to the boy.
The boy ate the food with love and after finishing the food his burp told the girl that he enjoyed the food and was full.
The girl came to the boy to take the plate.
The boy: Thank you didi. Aapne mujhe khana khilaya. Aap bohot acche ho. Lekin didi.....mere paas paise nahi hain.
The girl: Toh tujhse paise kisne mange? Yeh teri didi ki taraf se tha. Iske paise main apni salary mein se de doongi.
The boy: Ek baat poochu didi? Aap itni acchi kyun ho?
The girl chuckled hearing this and the spoke.
The girl: Main acchi nahi hoon yaar Chotu.
The boy: Aisa kyun?
The girl: Vo isliye ki maine na aise bohot se kaam kiye hain jisse kisi ko bohot chot pohochi hain.
"Lakshmi......kal humari shaadi ho jaaegi toh fir hum hamesha ek saath rahenge?"
The girl: Maine kisi ke saath itna bura kiya hain ki uski koi maafi nahi ho sakti hain.
The boy: Didi.....aapka naam kya hain?
The girl: Lakshmi......Lakshmi naam hain mera.
The boy: Bohot accha naam hain didi. Aur aap na chinta mat karo.....main bhagwaan se prathna karunga ki aapne jiska ka bhi dil dukhaya hain vo aapko maaf kar de.
Lakshmi smiled and then caressed Chotu's hair.
Lakshmi: Waise tu abhi jaaega kaha?
Chotu: Kahi nahi....bas yahi foot path par.
Lakshmi: Oo......main bhi toh wahi rehti hoon. Main na tere aas paas hi rahungi....jab bhi bhuk lage mujhe bolna....main tujhe khana khila doongi.
Chotu: Aap kyun footpath par rehti ho? Aapka ghar nahi hain?
Lakshmi: Nahi......mera ghar nahi hain. Uske liye paise chahiye....lekin vo mere paas hote nahi hain. Do wakt ki roti mil jaati hain yahi bohot hain.
Chotu: Main jab bara ho jaaunga na tab main ek bohot bada ghar kharidunga.
Lakshmi: Khareedna......khub tarakee karna lekin ek baat hamesha yaad rakhna. Kabhi bhi na paison ke ghamand mein ya paison ke lalach mein kisi ka bhi dil mat dukhana.
Chotu: Thik hain didi. Ab aap chalo.
Lakshmi went with Chotu. She slept on the foot path. She had a blanket but as Chotu was feeling cold so she have him the blanket.
She slept in the cold.
A car was passing from there. The person in the car felt pity on that girl.
The person came down from the car and came to the girl.
The person woke the girl up.
The person: Aap itni thand mein bina blanket liye kyun so rahi hain? Any ways.....aap yeh le lijiye.
Lakshmi took the blanket teary eyed.
Lakshmi: Thank you.
The person: Your welcome. Waise aap kaha rehti hain?
Lakshmi: Yahi....footpath par.
The person(in mind): Inko yaha par akela chodna theek nahi hoga.
The person: Aap ek kaam kijiye....aap mere saath chaliye.
Lakshmi: Nahi nahi......uski koi zaroorat nahi hain. Main theek hoon yaha.
The person: Dekhiye please chaliye....mera ghar yaha se bas 10 minute ki duri par hain. Main bohot dino ke baad ghar jaa raha hoon.
Lakshmi: Lekin.......
The person: Please chaliye.........
Lakshmi after thinking a little agreed. Before sitting in the car she informed Chotu about it. Chotu was happy for Lakshmi.
In the car,
The person started the car.
There was an absolute silence in the car when the person spoke.
The person: Waise aapka naam kya hain?
Lakshmi: Mera naam Lakshmi hain.....aur aapka?
The person: Mera naam Rishab hain.....Rishab Gill. Main Bangalore gaya tha ek deal sign karne ke liye jiske liye mujhe waha par 2 mahine rehne pare....so abhi ghar jaa raha hoon 2 mahine baad. Waise aap kya karti ho?
Lakshmi: Main paas ke ek dhabe mein kaam karti hoon.
The person: Great.......
Soon they reached to their destination. It was a big mansion and the name was Gill Mansion.
Lakshmi: Yeh aapka ghar hain?
Rishab: Jii haan......yahi mera ghar hain. Chaliye andar....I am sure sab log jaag hi rahe honge ab tak meri intezaar mein.
Lakshmi and Rishab came inside. The whole house was dark.
Rishab: Hello!!!!Sab so rahe hain kya? Mom! Dad! Riya! Dadi!
Just then the lights turned on and everyone shouted "SURPRISE!"
The house was beautifully decorated for Rishab's surprise.
Rishab ran and hugged his mom. He then also hugged his dad and sister Riya.
Rishab's mom: Welcome home beta.
Rishab kissed his mom's hand.
Riya: Bhai......aap itne dino ke baad ghar aaye ho aur mujhse baat hi nahi kar rahe ho? Not fair.
Saying this Riya made a sad pout.
Rishab came to Rhea and hugged her tightly.
Rishab: Tujhse baat na karu aisa kabhi ho sakta hain? Nahi na? Arrey abhi toh aaya........abhi toh bohot baatein karni hain.
Riya: Toh fir chaliye room mein.....
Rishab: Chal.........
Just then Riya saw Lakshmi.
Riya(to Lakshmi): Aap kaun ho?
Lakshmi: Namaste.....main Lakshmi hoon.
Riya(teasing): Ooo.....bhai ki girlfriend?
Rishab: Nahi.....yeh meri girlfriend nahi hain. Zarasal main jab aa raha tha tab.......
Rishab narrated everything to his family.
Rishab's mom went to Lakshmi.
Rishab's mom: Ise apna hi ghar samjho. Tum chalo main tumhe tumhara room dikhati hoon.
Rishab smiled hearing this.
Before going to her room Lakshmi heard Rishab's conversation with his dad.
Rishab: Dad.....vo kaha hain?
Dad: Vo bas ek deal sign karne ke liye gaya hain....kal tak laut aayega.
Rishab sighed a sad sigh and went to his room with Riya.
Lakshmi came to the room which she was given.
Lakshmi laid down on the floor. She looked at a bracelet that she was wearing.
Lakshmi: I don't know Rishi ki tum kaha ho......but I just wish ki tum jaha bhi ho bilkul theek ho. Tumne dusri shaadi kar li hogi I think and I really wish ki tum uske saath bohot khush raho. Tum hamesha khush raho Rishi.....aur agar main kabhi tumse mili toh please mujhe maaf kar dena.
Saying this Lakshmi kissed her bracelet and then slept with a smile on her face.
