Sameer was rolling the paper weight on the table sitting on his chair after lunch as if he was thinking deeply. Suddenly he left the ball and rested his head on the chair, his eyes were closed, his facial expression changed time to time as he recalled morning incident when his mother questioned him about their relationship.
Flashback
When he was about to leave after breakfast, his mother had called him from behind. "Sameer tujhse kuch important baat karni hai... thoda time hoga tere paas." Her voice was full of sarcasm.
"Kaisi baat kar rahi hai mummy... Aap ke liye to time hi time hai...aap bataiye kya baat hai." Sameer replied with a faded smile.
"Sameer tere aur Naina ke beech sab theek hai na." Vishakha questioned him directly with a serious face.
"Haa mummy sab theek hai... kyo puch rahi hai." Sameer replied keeping normal face.
"Teri hasi pahle jaise nahi lagti...aaj kal tu kuch tension me bhi rahta hai." Vishakha gaze fixed at him as she wanted to read his expression.
"Mummy jo new contract mila hai uski tension hai isliye aapko aisa lagta hoga... baki mere aur Naina ke beech sab theek hai." Sameer reassured her giving a wide smile that everything is well between them.
"To phir parso tu itni der raat ko ghar kyon aaya tha... Vivek bata rahe the teri koi meeting nahi thi aur na hi tu Naina se milne gaya tha phir kahan tha Sameer... Mai kal hi puchhne wali thi par Naina thi isliye nahi puchha." Vishakha's tone was suspicious that made him scared but he composed himself before answering.
"Mummy wo mai...mere college ke doston se milne gaya tha... unhone bahut dino se plan bana rakha tha to mana nahi kar paya...mai aapko batane wala tha par office ke kaam ke pressure me yaad nahi raha... sorry mummy." He hold his ears from his hands making a puppy face. Sameer lied his mother, it was eating him but no other option left him.
Vishakha downed his hands with affection and patted his cheek saying. "Theek hai... chal jaa late ho raha hai."
Flashback end.
"Mujhe pata hai mummy aap mere baaton se puri tarah convince nahi hui hai, aapki aankho me abhi bhi kuch doubt hai... Aur mujhe aaj mere aur Naina ke beech ki ladai ko chupane ke liye aapse jhuth bolna pada uska bahut dukh hai... lekin mai aapko dukhi nahi kar sakta, mai janta hun aap mujhse bahut pyaar karti hai aur mujhe dard me nahi dekh payegi... isliye jhuth bolna pada, please mujhe maaf kar dijiyega." He became sad and wondered what would happen if his mother came to know about the rift between them.
"Agar mere aur Naina ke beech aise hi chalata raha to mummy ko sab pata chal jayega aur wo dukhi ho jayengi...Mujhe iske baare me Naina se baat karni hogi... vaise bhi kal usne sorry kaha tha matlab use apni galti realize ho gai hai, ab baat ko lamba kheechna sahi nahi hoga." Sameer thought to sort out their problem before everyone would know it.
He got up from the chair and left the office. He drove the car towards the home. He went his room directly but Naina was not there. He strode to Deepika's room as he had not seen Naina in the hall and kitchen. He stopped at the doorstep of Deepika's room and peeped inside hearing Naina's voice.
"Deepika Ahmedabad na Delhi ke according chota town hai isliye wahan ke logon ki soch bhi choti hai. Agar hum se koi galti ho jaaye to Delhi wale wo baat kuch din baad bhul jayenge par Ahmedabad me log salon tak yaad rakhate hai....
Isliye wahan jo bhi karo soch samajh kar karna padta hai... aur hamara ghar jis society hai na wahan to aise baatein rozana hoti rahti hai, wahan ki aunties ka to kaam hai logon ki gossip karna... bahut sambhal ke chalna padta hai, kyonki aapki har ek activity par logon ki nazar hoti hai...Delhi me bhi bahut log honge jinhe dusro ki zindagi me jhankne me bada maza aata hai... aur ek ladki hone naate hum logon ko iss baat ka jyada khayal rakhna padhta hai.... tumhe pata hai bachpan me taiji iss baat par hum teeno bahno ko bahut lecture deti thi...mai aur Pooja didi unki har baat mante the, par Preeti...wo nahi manti thi aur apne mann ka karti thi... baad me iske liye wo taiji se bahat dhaant khati thi." Naina laughed.
