40.Gharounda

"Sabse jyada rang to Sanu ka chadha hai....itna ki poore rang badal gaye hai iske...poora pati ke rang me sarabor hai...lagta hai sher ke mooh khoon lag gaya hai...kitni baar laga waise?...Sher charo khano chit hua ya nahi?...".Shagun said teasing her to which Rashmi laughed too much.

"Chhhi didi...kitna ganda ganda baat karti ho....tanko laaj sharam nahi hai...chhoti behen hai hum tumhari...bhakk".Shehnaaz said turning red with the double meaning joke.

"Matlab sahi bole hum...ye jo hassi hai na tumhari sab bata rahi hai...badhiya hai".Shagun said grinning...

"Par Shehnaaz lag bahut sundar rahi hai kal se...aur khush bhi...accha laga dekh kar".It was Rashmi who seemed genuinely happy for her younger sister....Sanu smiled in response.

Rashmi was too cordial with her..or may be it was her own Outlook and way of thinking towards her own sister which has changed for both of them and that is why every thing felt positive and happy for them.....after all it's all in our mind only at the end of the day.

The sisters were cleaning the colors from them ..bathing together  in the washroom..well to save the time ,water and hard work all together engaged in tittle tattle.

"Pooja....aur pani Lana to....".Rashmi shouted from inside.

" Pappa ko ab motar lagva lena chahiye..unki bhi age ho rahi hai..kab tak chapakal chalate rahenge. Ek baar hi lagne hai jitne paise lagenge. ...hum middle class ki bhi ek hi jaddojehad hai na...roti kapda aur makan...agar kuch hua to padhayi aur health..".Rashmi stated..

" Bol rahe the inter ki copy check karne ke paise jo mile the aur exam me guarding duty ke paise mila kar paise jama hue hai thode..usse lagva lenge jaldi hi..." Shehnaaz said...Indeed meeting the necessities at the end for a middle class family is a big deal but they manage to fulfil all of them patiently and with great perseverance.

" Ye lo..ab aur nahi la kar denge hum pani ... itna bhoot bane ho to chudao rang aaram se...hum bole to itna mal mal ke ..ragad ragad ke holi khelne...sharir ka ek hissa nahi chhode tum log...itna pani kharcha kar rahe ho...Thak gaye hai hum...kal se itna kaam karwaya..ab aur pani nahi lane wale hum....."Pooja said giving them a bucket of water bringing it from handpump.

" Haan tumko to mehnat laga nahi na rang  chhudane me...la do fir Pooja...aur masoor daal ka besan bhi la dena..rang jaldi chhutega. ".Shagun said.

" Apne apne pati se bolo Ek ek balti pani la kar dein....jab itna ragad ragad kar rang sakte hai to chhudwa bhi sakte hai na..".Pooja said rolling her eyes.

" Is ladki ko thoda bhi laaj sharam nahi hai..besharam behaya kahin ki..ull julool bakna hai bas..".It was Shehnaaz who said gritting her teeth in anger.For an introvert and too shy person..these jokes were too derogatory for her.

"ye sabse sahi hai hum behno me...kisi se baat sun kar nahi aayegi...ulta samne wale ko 4 baat suna kar aayegi....".Rashmi said smirking.

"Aise nahi hota didi...itna mooh fat hona koi acchi baat nahi...".Sanu said.

"Mooh fat aur badtameej hone me antar hota hai Sanu...wo nahi hai abhi tak".

Rashmi said to which Shagun agreed...and then the babble went on....and the sisters went teasing each other specially the new bride Shehnaaz to which she only smiled...it was a progress though from defending denying and avoiding the talk and topic of intimacy ..she was hearing all silently as if memorising what how and why to feel in a certain way towards her husband...and the best part was she was able to think like that on her own wish ...not fantasicing but she wanted to feel how it feels between a man and a women....between a husband and a wife......and imagining was it with her and Sidharth also gave her goosebump to her surprise......she has not felt that excitement earlier...that want and shyness also the very first time...so has she ruined it?...then what?...May be the time and mindset was as such also Sidharth has not made her feel wanted..igniting that flame within...
