Mannat's pov:

But one major thing is, in almost all my flashbacks of having an elder sister, I'm getting scolded or punished by her, which ultimately concludes her being immensely strict other than her having immense love for me. But as far as I know Joshi jii from her interviews, she seems to be cool enough, actually, I'm not sure if she's actually like Karishma Singh, it will obviously have a huge difference, in being her fan to being her sister, and staying with her. Because, if she's the same I have flashbacks with, she'll be immensely strict again?

My chain of thoughts are broken when I'm made to sit beside Joshi jii in a chair, and infront of us is the SHO seated with a file of papers on his desk. Her parents, oh no, our parents are seated near her as they are giving a glance at the papers

SHO: so Mannat, maan gayi aap?

Mannat: nhi, jabardasti leke Jaa rhe hai merko (in mind: is he stupid or what? He really thinks mai yaha baithi hoti if it wasn't my will?)

Gulki: tch, kaise baat kr rhi ho

Mannat: kaise?

Gulki: Mahi, talk properly to him

She said, giving me a look, Was that an order given to me by Joshi jii? my elder sister, but I've just accepted her, order thodi lungi, aakhir The Mannat hu mai, I didn't bother the look enough

Mannat: I would rather not talk to him, konsa mere dost hai ye

At this response of mine, Joshi jii glared at me, if eyes could do action, I would definitely be down by a few slaps by now. It would be wrong to say I wasn't scared of her glare, I mean, utna bhi nhi... Just a little, like... Very little, jhuth bol rahi hu yaar aise sherni jaise koi bache ko ghurta hai kya, abhi toh mile hai hum

Gulki: I'm sorry on her behalf inspector, and yes, vo Maan gyi, she's giving me and all of us a chance

I was frustrated, why did she had to apologize?

Mannat: par aap

Gulki: chup chap baitho tum

Mannat: areh par

Gulki: not a word Mahi

I frowned at this and looked at her now new parents for an escape but they were controlling there smiles, and as soon as we had an eye contact, they both looked away, haww

Daat toh aise rahi hai jaise pata nhi kya kiya maine, vo bhi sabke samne

I couldn't sit quiet for such long so I started again...

Mannat: aapne toh bola tha papers signed hai, fir itni der kyu lag rhi hai

SHO: nhi toh, Ms. Joshi ne toh bola tha that she won't sign unless you agree to give her a chance

Mannat: haww Joshi jii, aapne jhuth bola?

Gulki's Mother: nahi beta, usne jhuth nhi bola, she had signed all the papers except for the last one

Gulki's father: so technically pura jhuth nhi bola na

Mannat: pura sach bhi kidhar bola, merko Haseena Mallik jaise baaton mei fasa liya matlab, 'dekho jana toh tumhe padhega hi, papers bhi sign ho chuke hai' aise krke kya bol rhe the

I mimicked her while everyone left small chuckles

I frowned, mera buddhu bana diya tha inhone, tch, she's very smart.. areh yaar

SHO: so, saari formalities complete ho gayi hai Ms. Joshi, ab bas social worker kabhi check karne aa sakti hai aapke ghar, kuch aur Raha toh we will call you, and yes, I've also made other arrangements, all these informations will remain confidential as per your wish, you can disclose it anytime when you, Mannat and your family is willing.

Gulki stood up and shaked hands with the inspector

Gulki: thank you inspector

SHO: infact, thanks for your cooperation, aap celebrity hai, but you still understand the protocols

Gulki gave a smile and nod in response

SHO: also, all the best with her (glancing at Mannat)

The constable who was silent untill then, now spoke up

Constable: haan madam, humare saath toh 24-30 hours thi, usme hi itni shaitani ki, bapree, aapko toh bohot Sara all the best hai iske liye

Gulki smiled at this

Gulki: jii bilkul, merko habit thi, aur ab fir ho jayegi (she said with a little emotional smile but soon covered up) thank you aapko!

And then everyone got up meanwhile Mannat was still sitting

Yaar ab merko ye vaise utha ke bahar bhi leke jayegi kya, tch nhi nhi, kya izzat reh jayegi meri, mai langda ke chalne ki hi koshish karti hu... I feel like butterflies in my stomach, nervous sa lag rha hai yaar, chill Mahi chill, ek second, mahi? No, Mannat hu mai.. chill Mannat chill, now good

I somehow kept both my arms on the sides of the wooden chair I was seated in, and stood up with the support of my working leg

Gulki: areh tum kya kr rhi ho

Mannat: dance jaisa kuch?

Gulki: kaise bolti ho uf, idhar aao, haath do, hum leke chalte hai

Mannat: nhi nhi, hum bahar vaise nhi jayenge, hum chhote bache thodi hai Joshi jii

Gulki: areh aise kaise jaogi Varna, aao toh sahi, mai fatafat chupke se tumhe le jaa ke car mei bitha dungi, bahar hi khadi hai gadi

Mannat: nhii na Joshi ji, merko abhi sabko bahar bye bolna hai

Gulki's mother: sabko matlab?

Mannat: worker aunty, jo merko layi vo, caretaker aunty ko, orphanage owner ko, idhar vale bacho ko Seema, Rekha, Kabir aur

Gulki: bas bas, tumhe puri duniya ko bye bolna hai, samajh gyi mai

Mannat: aisa bhi nhi hai (pouted)

Gulki: par jaogi kaise, challo na mere saath

Mannat: nhi, hum nhi jayenge vaise, aap merko khudse jaane do na, hato raste se

Gulki: areh

Gulki's father: bas Gulki, abhi behen se mili ho, aur mat chedho usko, tum baitho Mahi beta

Mannat: areh kyu?

Gulki's father: baitho toh sahi, ekbaar bas

Mannat: aap mujhe fir Joshi ji jaise utha ke le jayenge

Gulki's father: nhi le jayenge vaise

Mannat: aur le gye toh?

Gulki's father: ekbaar trust krke toh dekho







Aajke liye bas itna hi...

Kya lagta hai? Kya hoga aage?

Sochte rahiye...
