"Are you human or monster uncle ?"

"Kya hua Shubman beta ?"

"You forced your son for getting married to improve him ?"

"Shub beta I know I did wrong with my son by forcing him. But a father always wants son's well. I was sure that his life will be well with a partner like you"

"You were wrong uncle. You should understand your son from childhood, should value his wishes. How could you think a forced marriage can be good for him ? Anyway, now listen to me, I'll send him to you tomorrow as I think he will be better with his mom. You and your elder son don't dare to bother him. If you the consequence can be destructive! Good night"

Next day Ishan returned to his home. His mom and papa too became happy to see him. Raj asked him many questions, as like why Shubman too not came with him ? Why he suddenly sent Ishu here ect. But Ishan never talked with his papa and bhaiya and directly went to his room.

"Ishu beta, hume to batao hua kya hai ?" His mom asked.

"Mom actually he realised that we can't be happy with a forced marriage and took that decision"

"What decision ?"

"He never told you ?"

"No"

"He wants to break the current marriage and get me married again with Mayank" Ishan said looking down.

"Oh my God! Why he decided suddenly ? Had you any clash or misunderstanding ?"

"Arey no mom. He just wants to see me happy..."

Ishan stopped with his own words. Today before leaving Mumbai Shubman byed him with a dry smile. Ishan clearly saw the sorrow in his eyes.

"Vaise mom can I go to meet Mayank ?" Ishan said to avoid the topic.

"But Mayank is not here Ishu"

"Not here matlab ?"

"He went to meet you in Punjab, at your in-laws hometown and not returned yet"

"Still not returned !"

He called Mayank but his phone was switched off. Ishan felt a little worried for that. 

He was feeling hurted for Shubman too. What's the fault of the poor boy ? He never knew anything before marriage, he too dreamed for a happy life. Instead, he's abandoning his dreams for Ishan's happiness.

.

.

For the next two days Ishan felt bored in home. Watching movie is also seems boring now, Mayank was noto there, Tilak said he also don't know about Mayank.

On the third day at night he called Shubman;

"Hello Ishan, sab thik hai na ?"

"Haan sab thik hai"

"Uncle and bhaiya disturb to ni kar rahe ?"

"Arey nhiiiii"

"So ? You called suddenly ? Any problem ?"

"Can't I call you without problems ?"

A little silence from another side..... "Surely you can.... why not ?"

"To batao kaise ho tum ?"

"Am ok, tum kaise ho ?"

"Umm I'm not... the days are too boring here"

"Achcha! Movies send karu ?"

"Movies bhi achha nhi lag rah"

"Your friends kya kar reh hain ? And Mayank... call him naa"

"Umm Shubi... he's not here... I mean not returned from Punjab yet and still not receiving calls"

"Ohh... ok I'll see it"

"Shubi..."

"Haan bolo"

"Have you took your dinner ?"

"Umm... haan yeah..."

"Tell me the truth"

"Why would I lie Ishan ? Don't worry for me. Vi bhai and Ro bhai hai na..."

"Hmm. Ok good night. Can I call you tomorrow night too ?"

"Of course, you can whenever you want"

Two weeks passed.

Shubman already informed Ishan that he started the procedure of breaking the marriage but still cannot get any news about Mayank. 

Ishan's clumsy, joyous self totally gone. Tension about Mayank and sympathy for Shubman pinching him everytime. Every night he hugs a pillow not thinking about Mayank, but Shubman. That Shubman, who once forcefully enjoyed him.... that Shubman who is known to him from just some weeks...... Don't know why Ishan feels bad for that guy. First he became betrayed then being disappointed. 

Even sometimes Ishan overthinks that... may be Mayank got his better half and moved from here, though he isn't receiving calls...... and if it comes true then he too can stay with Shubman..... then blushes with his own overthinkings.

One day at evening he called Shubman as usual but his phone was switched off. Ishan tried again and again but it still off. Ishan felt worried for him.... usually he doesn't switch off his phone.

Suddenly Ishu remembered that he could call Vi or Ro bhai. They will surely know about him.

"Hello Vi bhai... vo Shubman thik hai na ? His phone is switched off"

"Umm haa... I mean tu tension mat le bachcha"

"You're tensed bhaiya, don't hide from me. Batao na kya hua ?"

"Vo actually Shubi ko accident ho gya office se wapas aate waqt. He's hospitalized now"
