You Were Everything To Me

Chapter-6

Soon sun blushed and it was 8 in the morning but last four hours were the longest  hours of Kudrat's life. She was walking here and there restlessly thinking of Arjun. Arjun hadn't called her yet. He never sleep till this late. She was checking her phone again and again.

Finally she decided to call him herself. He picked the call in the third ring.

"Hello. Arjun" Sanyukta chipped but Arjun didn't answer.

"Arjun you there?" She asked him.

"Hmmmm" Arjun hummed.

"You okay ?? "She asked.

"I am okay"Arjun said in ice cold voice. He was hiding his pain behind his cold behaviour.

But Kudrat was his best friend. She knew Arjun well. She knew Arjun was hiding his pain. But she knew what she need to do.

"You had your breakfast?"She asked.

"Hmmmm"Arjun hummed.

"Chalo. I will call you later. Getting late for college. Bye"Kudrat said and hanged up.

Arjun smiled sadly . He was alone at home. He gave off to Bunty because he wanted to spend time alone. His sleep had calmed down his anger and only the pain and hurt remained in his heart.

He was drowned in his deep thoughts when door bell rang. Arjun ignored it completely as he wanted his time alone. Door bell was ringing continously and it irritated him more. He walked to the door lifelessly and there she was standing in blue salwar kameez with her books in her hands.

"Enna time lagda ae booha kholan ch?( it take so much time to open a door?)" Kudrat asked.

Arjun remained silent.

"Arey!! Tere ghree riwaaz ni paani puchann da?"Kudrat again asked.

"Kitchen ch haiga. Pee le jaake" Arjun said and took a seat on the  couch.

The condition was much more worse than Kudrat thought. He was unusually silent. He was not letting his pain, his hurt out. He was suffocating himself with his feelings. He need to let it out. Kudrat slowly took a seat beside him and placed her hand on his shoulder and was  patting his shoulder like a mother.

Her presence gave some sort of relief to Arjun. He was silently looking at the floor and Kudrat was slowly patting his shoulder. After good ten minutes his silence broke and he spoke in unusually calm voice.

"What was my fault Kudrat? I loved her but I was a bloody timepass for her. A toy. Jadon ji krya gal kar layi jadon ji karya sutt dita( man kia to  baat ki, ni toh fenk dia)"Arjun said.

Kudrat remained silent and was listening to him. He continued,"I just wanted her little bit of care and attention but I was an option for her. Precisely a replacement. I cared for her, I loved her and she was not even ready to meet once. She  didn't even responded to my last text.  What kind of relationship was that Kudrat?  Only I was there in the relationship. She was nowhere. And you always defended her. Ohnu koi fark hi ni painda".

Arjun's throat was paining because he was not letting his tears out and his  eyes were full of pain and sorrow.

Kudrat put an arm around his shoulder and was about to mouth something when Arjun at once turned towards her and hugged her tight.

Kudrat was numb to react. This was so instant that she was not able to react immediately but then after few moments she hugged him back and started soothing him by patting his back.

Arjun neither was speaking nor was crying. He was just silent in her embrace trying to sooth his pain. Kudrat was patting his back and said," Sab theek ho jaana ae Arjun. Je pyaar sacha hunda ae ta rabb aape e milaa dinda ae( all will be okay. If your love is true. God himself will do something)".

Her voice broke his trance and he pulled back from hug and said,"I am sorry wo..."He was stammering and his eyes were on the floor.

"Arey! Hug bhi nahin kar sakte kya mujhe?? Kuch nahin kahunge main"Kudrat chuckled.

"Don't speak hindi. Punjabi suits you"Arjun smiled to her.

Kudrat smiled back. She knew that it was not the time for serious talks. Arjun need some light moments.

"Tuc sunya kuch??( you heard something??)"Kudrat asked Arjun.

"Ki??(what??)"Arjun asked.

"Haaww. Tuc kuch v ni sunya??"Kudrat put her hand on her mouth.

"Arey kya byiii??"Arjun asked her again.

"Tuhaada stomach is crying. Mainu ta ron di awaaz ethe tak aa rahi hai( i am hearing their cries)"Kudrat said.

Arjun looked at her confusingly.

"Edaan na dekho(don't look like this). They are complainting that you haven't feed since yesterday"Kudrat said dramatically.

He smiled and Kudrat felt relief at her heart.

"Chalo let me cook something for you." She said and went to kitchen.

"Ki khaaoge??( what will you eat ?)"Kudrat asked.

"Kuch vi(anything)"Arjun said.

"Oh taa aaunda ni bnauna mainu( I don't how to cook it)" Kudrat pouted.

Arjun  shaked his head and smiled.

"Kudrat"Arjun said.

"Okay Okay. Maggie bna laiye pher. Ni taan ro ro hor maadi haalat ho jaani ae tuhaade stomach di( let us make maggie. Otherwise your stomach will die because of crying)" Kudrat giggled.

"Its there in the second drawer. And by the way how do you know that there must have maggie in kitchen?"Arjun asked her.

"Arey!! I know you are obsessed with maggie"Kudrat chuckled and went to kitchen.

Arjun was relaxed in Kudrat's presence. Her presence was giving him relief from his pain and hurt but still he can't help it and was thinking about Jasmine continously.

Kudrat came after 15 minutes with a bowl full of maggie.

"Here you go"She  handed him the bowl.

"Where is yours??"Arjun asked.

"I had my breakfast"Kudrat said.

"Ohkay"Arjun said and started eating and finished it in 5 minutes.

"Aaj jyaada e swaad lagri c( it was more tasty today)"Arjun said to which Kudrat smiled.

"Taan main chlaan pher(so. I shall leave now)"Kudrat said.

Arjun nodded. Kudrat grabbed her bag and was about to leave the house when Arjun called her,"Thodi der hor ruk ja. Please"

Kudrat turned and smiled. She placed her bag on the side table and took a seat beside him on the couch.

And they talked for the whole day. Random talks. Colleges, friends, movies or what not. They didn't realized when it was 4 in the evening.

"Arjun. Its 4. I have to leave now. I haven't told anyone that I am  here. According to Mum Dad I am in college and I need to leave now so that I can reach home by time" Kudrat said.

"You haven't told them?" Arjun asked.

"Ki kehndi?? Ke tuhaada pyaara Arjun devdaas bnya betha hai!!"kudrat giggled.

Arjun didn't say anything and waved a bye to her.

Kudrat left for her home and was thinking that why the hell she lied to her parents.
