It's been years since that dark day when they discovered the dead body of one of the smartest minds of the history of the university. Five years to be precise. Throughout the process of investigation, they have managed to end up associating his death to something positive. He died to save a lot of talented students. Yet the pain still remains in the walls of the university and in those who knew him. It is always a gloomy day for them. Yet they call each other on this day but don't talk about Taran. Instead they talk about their own and each other's life. In a way it was their reminder that they are lucky to be alive and with each other. Jay knew Sanjeet will call today and he was right. It was just before the day started. Just after breakfast he was in his home office when he got a video call."Kese Hain bete? Ab yaad ayi apko?"
"Kesi batein kar rahe hain ap Dad. But you know how packed my schedule here is. And time zone difference is also.."
"Bas bas, hum sikayat nai kar rahe the. Batayiye kesa chal raha hai sab. Apne tickets book kiye June ke. Ya hum kare?"
"Dad main.. Dad main nai aa sakta June main."
"Nai aa sakte matlab. It's been fixed for a year now that you are supposed to come home. Esi kounsi padhai hai jo ek hapte yaha se nai ki ja sakti?"
"Ap nai samjhenge. Aur kitne tape hue hain ap main samjha vi nai paunga. Unko phone dijiye."
"Kyu nai. Unhone hi apki aadat bigadi jo hai... Sambhavita...!" Jay yelled and Sambhavita poked her head.
"Yehi to hun main. Kya hua?" She asked walking in. "Is that Sanju?" She said running towards him to see the screen. Sanjeet laughed as soon as she came in front of the camera.
"hello Priya Matashree. Kesi hain aap?" Sanjeet said. Sambhavita leaned on Jay's chair to look at the screen.
"I'm amazing as usual? Tum kese ho?" She said. Then looked at her husband's face and tried to suppress a smile. "Jay apko kaam hoga na. Sanju tum mere phone pe call Karo."
"Ok mom." The video call ended.
"Kya hua patidev?" Sambhavita asked Jay.
"Apne ladle se puchna." Jay said grumpily. And her phone started buzzing.
