His Fallen Petal

{13} Half Truth

There was a tense silence followed by a defeating sigh from Anirudh. Manorma took a deep breath and started speaking.

M:- Bondita... Tum jaisa soch rhi ho vaisa kuch nhi hai. Asal me mere aur Anirudh ke beech dosti ke alava aur koi rishta nahi hai...

B:- Ji?... Dekhiye didi, main janti hu aap bohot achi hai par mera dil rakhne ke lie apko jhut bolne ki zaroorat nahi hai. Mai ye samajh chuki hu ki--

M:- Nhi Bondita. Tumhe sach nhi pta pura. Mujhe btane do...

B:- Thik hai. Bataiye...

M:- Asal mein.... M... Main Vidyut se prem krti hu Bondita...

B:- JI? Kya kaha aap ne? A... Aap ka dimaag thik hai? Koi.. Apne pa... Pati ke samne ye sb bolta hai bhala?

M:- Bondita please meri baat to suno puri... Err... Anirudh... Mere pati nhi hai...

B:- Huh?

A:- Manorma---

M:- Tum chup baitho! Idiot!

B:- Hey Durga maa... Ye kya chal rha hai aap logo ka... Mai jaa rhi hu mere se nhi dekha jaega ye ghor kalyug..

A:- Konse se zamane ke dialogue bol rhi ho Bondita..

B:- Aap chup rahiye!

A:- Mujhe bolna hi nhi hai...

M:- asal mein Vidyut ki ma hmari shadi ke khilaaf thi kyunki hmari jaat alg hai. Aur gusse mein aakr vo Vidyut ki kisi aur se shadi karne ka soch rhi thi to aisa na ho isiliye maine ye shadi ka natak kiya...

Bondita blinked her eyes taking in the newfound information while Anirudh stared at Manorma with ridiculous expressions, trying to figure out what was wrong with this woman.

A(in mind) :- Ek jhut se chutkara mila nahi ki ye dusra bol di. Aise dost bhagwan sabko de... Mei akela kyu jhelu bhala.

He came out of his thoughts when Bondita started speaking.

B:- To iska mtlb aap dono ki shaadi....

M:- Nakli thi. Unme se ek bhi rasm asli nhi thi.

B:- Pr unhone apko mangalsutra aur sindur dala tha...

M:- Nhi Bondita Anirudh ne mangal sutra bandha nhi tha mujhe bs pehnane ka natak kiya tha aur sindur to maine pehle se mangtika ke niche lgaya tha...

Bondita was flaggerblasted. What the heck was happening? She was wrecked over all this mess and all this was just a stupid play for them? But... Could she blame them? But she didn't deserve all the at pain and humiliation either.

B:- Apka mtlb hai ki ye sb ek natak tha aap sbke lie?

A:- Bomdita...

B:- meri itni bezzati hui, meri maa ke saath mera rishta tut gya. Jaisi bhi hai meri maa hai. Sbke samne mujhe itna kuch kehna sunna oda pr aap sb ye natak kr rhe the?

M:- Hm majboor the...

B:- To km se km mujhe sach to bta diya hota didi.

M:- Hme lga ki... Ki shayad tum samjho na...

B:- ha... Apko lga ki mei ek chota sa natak nhi samajh skti lekin ye sb jo mere saath itne dino me hua vo samajh skti hu? Mujhe aur kuch nhi sunna...

Saying that she turned around and stormed towards her room. Anirudh tried to run after her but before he could reach her door she already locked it.

Anirudh stormed towards Manorma in fury.

A:- What was that? Kya zaroorat thi ye sb kehne ki?

M:- Mei jaane se pehle apni taraf se sach btana chahti thi. Mana pura sach nhi btaya pr jitna uske lie mujhe abhi zaruri lga maine bta diya. Vaise bhi 2 din ki baat aur hai. Uske baad mei yha se chli jaungi.
