Scene starts on a lonely road of Mumbai. A boy in his early 20's was walking down the streets, which witnessed rain just an hour ago. The road was totally empty and the boy's legs were paining due to continuous walking.
"Yaar.....mujhse ab aur nahi chala jaaega Kartik.....main baith raha hoon yaha."said Kartik's brother, Sameer completely tired due to the journey.
Kartik sat down beside Sameer as well. Witnessing the empty streets.....Kartik's inner voice spoke.
Kartik's POV(in mind)
Iss anjaan shaher mein aaye hue 2 ghante bhi nahi hue lekin....abhi se Maa ke na hone ka ehsaas hone laga hain. Na jaane kaha hogi vo......kis haal mein.
Kartik's POV ends.
Sameer: Kartik......humein toh Oberoi Mansion ka address bhi nahi pata hain. Toh hum waha jaaenge kaise?
Kartik stood up sighing.
Kartik: Pata nahi......dhoondte hain....mil jaaega.
Sameer(sighing): Matlab aur bhi chalna parega.......theek hain....Maa ke liye yeh toh kar hi sakta hoon main.
Saying this Sameer stood up and they both started walking.
Kartik's POV(in mind)
Zindagi mein aaj tak.....kabhi itna akela aur itna beshara nahi mehsoos kiya maine.....jitna aaj lag raha hain. Maa ke bina rehne ki addat nahi hain...shayad isiliye. Aapko toh pata hain na Kanha....ki meri Maa meri zindagi hain, meri poori duniya hain.....toh fir kyun aapne Maa ko mujhse durr kar diya? Kya iske peeche bhi kuch accha chupa hua hain? Par...Maa ke bina....meri zindagi mein kuch accha nahi ho sakta. Toh bas jaldi se Maa se mujhe milwa do Kanha...please.....mera saath dena Kanha....please.
Kartik's POV ends.
After another hour of walking.....they both finally saw a tea stall.
Kartik: Bhaisahab......yeh Oberoi Mansion kaha hain bataenge?
The tea seller: Yaha se aadhe ghante ki duri par hain Oberoi Mansion.
Kartik: Jii theek hain.....thank you.....
Sameer: Abhi aur chalna parega? Nahi yaar.....mujhe nahi jaana.
Kartik: Chal na Sameer bas aadha ghanta aur......
Sameer(with a cute pout):Theek hain......
Sameer and Kartik again started walking.
Sameer: Waise Kartik.......yeh tere papa dikhte kaise honge? Khadoos?
Kartik: Pata nahi......haan par itna zaroor pata hain ki.....vo mujhse aur Maa beintehaan nafrat karte hain.
Sameer: Aur mujhse bhi.......aur hum fir bhi unke paas jaa rahe hain....
Kartik: Humare paas aur koi raasta nahi hain Sameer. Agar Maa tak pohochna hain toh yeh toh Oberois ke ghar jaana hi parega.
Sameer sighed hearing this.
After half an hour,
When they both finally reached the gate of Oberoi Mansion, two boys came on bike and snatched away their luggage and purses.
Sameer: Yeh.....
Sameer ran behind them and Kartik followed Sameer.
They saw both of them entering a hotel after parking the bike. It was 7 star hotel named 'Regions' Palace'.
Kartik and Sameer ran inside as well unhearing the restrictions of the security guards.
Receptionist: Aap dono hain kaun?
Kartik(panting): Ma'am....2 ladke the...humara samaan chori karke isi hotel mein aaye hain abhi abhi....please unhe dhoond dijiye......
Receptionist: Sorry.....main aapki koi maddat nahi kar sakti....aap please hotel se chale jaaiye warna mujhe security ko bulana parega.......
Kartik: Dekhiye please......
"Kartik.....yeh rahe dono.....bhaag rahe hain...jaldi aa..."screamed Sameer from the corridor of second floor.
Kartik ran upstairs and was following the boys when suddenly he bumped into someone. In order to save the person from falling.......he held her tightly.
Soon Kartik realized that it was a girl. The girl was revealed to be Rhea. However......instead of getting angry on Kartik.....Rhea was completely lost in Kartik's eyes. A smile appeared on her face and she blushed.
"Tu aata hain seene mein......
Jab jab saansein bharti hoon...
Tere dil ki galiyon se main har roz guzarti hoon........
Hawa ke jaise chalta hain tu...main ret jaise murti hoon.....
Kaun tujhe yun pyaar karega.....jaise main karti hoon.....
Hhnnnnnnnnnn......Hhnnnnnnnnn......
Meri nazar ka safar......tujhpe hi aake ruke....
Kehne ko baaki hain kya....kehna tha jo keh chuke.....
Meri nigahein hain teri nighaon ki tujhe khabar kya bekhabar.....
Main tujhse hi chup chup kar....teri aankhein padhti hoon.....
Kaun tujhe yun pyaar karega.....jaise main karti hoon.....
Hhhnnnnnn............Hhnnnnnnnnnnnn"
Kartik and Rhea's trance broke when the security guards caught hold of Sameer and Sameer asked Kartik to help him.
Kartik made Rhea stand up properly but Rhea was still lost in Kartik.
Kartik went to Sameer and......
Kartik: Dekhiye bhaiya.....humara samaan chori ho gaya hain....aap please dhoond dijiye...hum chale jaaenge.
Security guard: Humein bewakoof samjha hain? Aur waise bhi tumhare jaise faticharon ka samaan koi kyun chori karega?
Sameer: Oh....kya bakwaas kar rahe ho?
Kartik came to Rhea and joined his hands infront of Rhea.
Kartik(joining his hands): Dekhiye....main sach keh raha hoon....Kanha ki kasam...sach mein 2 ladke humara samaan chori karke iss hotel mein le aaye hain.....please humari maddat kar dijiye.
Rhea: Jii jii.....security....chodo unhe......aur aao yaha.....
Security guard: Jii ma'am.....
Security guards stood infront of Rhea beside Kartik.
Rhea: Ab inka samaan dhoondne mein maddat karo inki....aur jiss kisi ke bhi kamre mein mile na....use seedha police ke paas de do....samjhe?
The security guards nodded and started searching the rooms.
Meanwhile......
Kartik: Thank you very much.......ki aapne meri maddat ki aur meri baat maan li.
Rhea(with a smile): It's my pleasure....waise tumhara naam kya hain?
Kartik: Mera naam hain Kartik.....
Rhea(forwarding her hand): Myself Rhea....
Kartik tried to shake hands with Rhea due to which.....Rhea's felt shivers all over her body. Her heart skipped a beat and her eyes shined more than they ever did.
Soon the people were caught and were handed over to the police.
Kartik left and Rhea bid him bye with a huge smile on her face.
Soon she left the hotel as well.
Scene shifts to Oberoi Mansion,
Kartik and Sameer came inside the Oberoi Mansion and the first person who saw them was Siya.
Siya: Jii....aap log kaun?
Kartik: Namaste.....main Kartik hoon.....Kartik Shalu Bajwa.......
Siya frowned.
Sameer: Arrey seedha seedha bol na.......Ayush Oberoi ka beta hain......
Siya(very happy): Bhaiya......aao na andar.....mummy papa.....badi Maa...bade papa.....dadi...Ishqi dii.....sab yaha aaiye....dekhiye kaun aaya hain....
Everyone came downstairs.
Karishma: Kaun hain yeh?
Neelam: Siya....kyun chilla rahi ho? Kaun aaya hain?
Ishqi: Kaun hain yeh dono?
Siya: Tau jii kaha hain?
Soon Ayush came down as well.
Ayush: Kya hua Siya? Hum sabko kyun bulaya?
Siya(happy): Tau jii....aap khushi se jhoom uthenge meri baat sunn kar.....
Ayush: Accha? Aisi kaunsi baat hain?
Siya came to Kartik and stood beside him with a smile.
Siya: Yeh hain Kartik bhaiyaa.......aapka aur tai jii ka beta......
Everyone was shocked to hear this and instead of happiness everyone's eyes filled with hatred and Neelam gnashed in anger.
Karishma: How dare you? Tumhari himmat bhi kaise hui yaha aane ki? Zaroor tumhari uss besharam Maa ne bheja hoga tumhe..hain na?
Neelam: Isse kya pooch rahi ho Karishma? Zaroor property ki lalach mein bheja hoga.
Rishi: Humari zindagi toh tumhari Maa pehle hi barbaad kar chuki hain.....toh fir ab tum kyun aaye ho? Humari zindagi firse barbaad karne? Itne besharam kaise ho sakte ho tum?
Before anyone else could speak........Ayush came to Kartik and spoke without any expressions.
Ayush: Nikal jaa yaha se......aur kabhi mud ke mat aana.
Kartik's POV(in mind)
Kya karu main Kanha? Maa ko dhoondna hain mujhe aur agar yaha se chala gaya toh Maa ko nahi dhoond paaunga. Nahi....main peeche nahi hat sakta.
Kartik's POV ends.
