In the previous segment there was a squabble between Avni and Dev and Avni understood what Dev wanted and she turned down his proposal,he felt obnoxious and hence,after staying in the park for a while he thought of
heading towards his home and try to fade the memories which were engraved in his very mind.Home scene-
"Oh!so you came,I was waiting for you beta where were you?"Dev's mom asked.Dev did not replied he went to his room directly without saying a word,his mom suspected that there is some problem revolving around .She wanted to know that so she sneaked inside Dev's room as it was open.In all this hassle Dev even forgot to shut the door also and therefore he was laid on the bed with his eyes in
tears and pillow in hand,his mother switched on the lights and Dev's agony loomed out of the light.Dev's mom was shocked after seeing him in that position.Mom to Dev
"What happened son,you seem depressed has some wicked thing happened with you lately?"Dev's mom asked.Dev didn't responded he didn't nodded his head either.Dev's mom sat on the bed and asked him repeatedly but he didn't uttered a word.She started shaking him, she did this in order to irritate him so that he
can spill something out as a result of irritation."Yes yes yes something has happened now happy are you happy now"Dev said aggressively
Dev's mom freaked out because she hadn't seen Dev losing his temper alike his father,Dev wasn't short tempered but Avni gave him a goodbye gift.
"Why are you talking like this Dev you weren't like this before what happened to you,tell me"Dev's mother said passionately
Dev was rattled after that and he spoke everything out in complete anger
"A mad reprobate broke my heart,from the last 10 fucking days we were roaming here and there like vagrants without any worries.She happens to be my collegemate and when I saw her for the first time since then I fell in deep love with her but I didn't knew that it was just an infatuation nothing else because it was destined that she'd break my heart.I thought of talking to her about this matter so I invited her for a randezvous the other day(yesterday) so she agreed to come and we had our fucking lunch and after that I asked that bitch for a parkvisit which was in the vicinity, because I found that place best for my heartbreak.We went there we sat under a huge banyan tree and when I asked her will she be my girlfriend,do you know what she replied,oh! Dev I think you are conventional,poor,non-classy how can I be with you.She even disparaged me for my poor fluency in english, she continued insulting me and I couldn't say a word maa a word,that 15 minutes with her in the park were excruciating".Dev replied
Dev literally took his heart out by saying those words he never said the F-word but he had to because at that time his mind wasn't speaking his heart was.
"Beta if you think this thing broke your heart then seriously you are very weak to face this cruel world,you don't know what can turn up the very next moment the only thing which is guaranteed to give you a life full of prosperity is your hardwork and a prosperous man is neither cheated nor rejected you better remember this.First of all, if this girl rejected you for no reason besides your wealth and class then I think very vehemently that she never wished to be with you this might sound bit dreary but you have to understand the true face of life.She rejected you for no reason so give that silly girl a reason and that would probably be the day when she'll see you conquering the impregnable world then she'll come running towards you and then that would be the perfect day of judgement to you.I know you wish to insult her the way she insulted you and say all the words that you have in your injured heart but beta if you want to really make someone feel bad then make them feel by your work not by your word remember that.One most important thing I'd like to say to you that never be unaware about anything in life because fragility only comes to the ones who are oblivious about the gravity of the upcoming events.Every event,every ocassion holds some importance it's just that you have to understand that which event holds in what proportion.After knowing them act accordingly and you can see yourself amongst the glorious leaders of the world".Dev's mom replied with eloquence.
Dev didn't knew that he was doomed, because his dad heard everything as he was standing behind the door and he happens to be a good listener,he isn't supposed to do that but he can't be treated.He opened the door and both mom and son were shocked after seeing him.
Dad to them-
"oh! what's cooking lads, tell me I can also contribute in your fascinating conversation.Tell me do I have something to contribute".Dad asked in a sarcastic tone."Please don't taunt the boy,he really had a rough day"mom said.
"That's why I'm saying Dev tell me beta I'll buy whatever you will say"Dad said.
Dev went berserk with what his dad said and he very angrily went outside.His dad and mom also ran behind him.
"Hey! don't you dare walk out when I am saying something,you're roaming here and there with a girl and damaging my reputation infront of people huh?"dad said.
"Dad I'm not in a mood of talking with you please leave me alone"Dev shouted.
Dev deserted his home and came to a park which was nearby he sat there a poster was on the grass he picked that up which spoke-
Delhi university music competition.
Top 5 will get a chance to make their own album and that album will be financed and promoted by the organizers itself.
Stay tuned.
