MUDDLED LIFE (COMPLETED)

Chapter 10

Next day...

Abhishek, Aarya and Vibha left for the Village.

After a few hours of ride. They reached.

At the entrance only, Sarpanch and his family with a few villagers were waiting to welcome their daughter, son-in-law and his mother.

Aarya's mother did their aarti. Everyone welcomes them.

Jayant: Mujhe laga nahi aap log shaadi ko itni jaldi apna loge. Beti ka moh... Ye jarur beluga beti ke liye moh sab se gatiya cheez hai duniya me. Betiya to sirf bhai aur baap par bhoj hoti hai. Shaadi ke baad pati par. Pati ki maut ke baad bete par.

Jayant's words pinched the hearts of every mother present over there. No father has experienced his daughter's presence before her birth. No brother experienced his sister's presence before her birth. No husband experienced the love of his wife from the day of his birth. But a son has experienced her mother's love in her womb, before his birth. He experienced her love from the moment, he was just a tiny bean.

Losing his calm. Abhishek grabbed Jayant's neck and pressed his throat. Every person there was shocked.

Sarpanch took out his gun and pointed it towards Abhishek's head. Vibha and Aarya gasped.

Sarpanch: Chor mere-

Before he could have completed it. Around 6-7 policemen stood surrounding Sarpanch with guns pointed at his head.

This was shocking for everyone.

Inspector: Sarpanch gun hume de do. Sir ko kharch bhi aayi to tum jaan se hath do baithoge.

One of them forwarded his hand. Sarpanch gave him a gun. Anyone can easily notice the fear in Sarpanch, Jayant and every villager's eyes. Still, Abhishek was holding Jayant from his throat.

Abhishek (looking at inspector): Yes?

Inspector: Sir, Avneet ma'am asked us to follow you and if there seems any danger around you or Vibha ma'am. We can shoot the person. So, we were spying on you.

Vibha sighed. Aarya looked at Vibha and nodded.

Abhishek (nodded): Alright! Keep the guns down. I don't think there is any danger near me as you guys are around.

Inspector gestured to his team and they took their guns down. They stood surrounding villagers and everyone.

Abhishek (tightening his grip): Ab teri baat karte hai. Haa to tujhe aurat jaat hi bhoj lagti hai. Biwi, behan, beti ko to tujh jaise naa mard bhoj samajhte hi the. Ab tu aaya unka bada leader maa ko bhi bhoj samajhne wala. Teri maa jo tujhe aaj bhoj lagta hai na. Us hi ke vajah se tu idhar khada hone ki aukaat rakhta hai. 9 months uske hi khok me tha. Soch agar jo vo aurat na hoti to tu hota? Tera existence hi nahi hota. Ye jo tera gurur hai na mard ka vahi nahi hoti.

Aur rahi baat behan, biwi ya beti ki. To meri biwi police officer thi tujh jaiso ko ache se aukaat dikhana aata tha usko. Mujhe us par khud se zyada garv tha aur meri behan kal hi to usne khade khade tujhe apne pairo me giraya. Vo bhul gaya kya? Phir se puri movie bolu dikhane ko? Kal to sirf trailer... Na vo trailer bhi nahi sirf title tha movie ka. Trailer dikhane par aayi na to apni shakal dekhne layak nahi bachega tu aur movie dekhne ke baad to hmm... Khud soch le title ke dum par kya haal kiya and movie me kya hoga. Aur haan ek baar apne charo taraf aankh ghuma kar dekh. Meri taraf ek gun uthegi. Tum sab ki to lashe milegi. Khoon ki nadiya bahegi. Itni security meri behan ne mujhe bina kahe di hai. Soch mujhe us par kitne fakra hoga. Last meri beti. Usme na meri jaan basti hai. Tune uska khayal apne dimag se nahi nikala to main tere sharer se tu jaan nikal luga. Samajha?

He asked poking his nails in Jayant's throat. Jayant's breath got stuck. He shivered in fear.

Abhishek: Samajha dena apne bete ko meri beti par ek kharoch aayi to mujhse bura koi nahi hoga.

Sarpanch nodded in fear.

Vibha held Abhishek's arm and patted his back. Listening to Jayant's words for mother. Abhishek forgot why he came here and everything. Realizing everything his eyes were wide open.

Aarya's mother (scared): Jamai sa aap aao. Aarya leke aaya Jamai ji ko.

Aarya nodded. They walked towards Sarpanch's house. Other villagers left for their houses.

Sarpanch and Jayant followed everyone. Sarpanch was busy in looking around at the police. A fear took birth in his sense.
