The Incomplete Life 💔 {COMPLETED}

Part 3

It was evening then. Samaira was busy playing at the swing while suman was watching her smilingly.
"Arey Suman ! Kaisi hai ?! Kitne Dino baad dikhi hai !" exclaimed Pragya another neighbour of their society. While Suman got engaged in talks with her, she didn't realize that she walked with her a little far away from the munchkin. On the other side, Samaira was busy playing when two boys, maybe one or two years older than her, pushed her down. She almost fell but two strong arms quickly encircled around her and saved her from bashing her head on the ground. Samaira closed her eyes in fear and quickly clutched his shirt. She was swiftly engulfed in the strong arms as she began to cry.
"Kuch Nahi hua aapko baby. Aap bilkul theek ho. Dekho aap Nahi gire. Aankhen kholo angel." completed Sameer assuring Samaira.
She opened her eyes and saw herself in some stranger's hands.
"Mmujhe neeche utariye aap. Ppplease neeche utariye" said samaira a little scared.
Sameer let her down and made her properly stand. "Hey boys ! Aap dono isey dhakka kyu Diya ?! Usey lag jaati toh ?!" scolded Sameer.
"Arey wo kabse jhool rahi Hai. Hume bhi toh jhoolna hai na" answered in reflex one of the boy.
"Par kya Aapne usse Kaha ki aapko jhoolna hai ??" asked Sameer cringing his eyebrows.
"Nahi"
"Phir ! Jab tak aap bologe Nahi usey kaise pata chalega ki aapko bhi jhoolna hai ?!"
"Par wo Roz yahan aakar jhoolti hai. Wo humesha jhoolti rahegi toh hum jab jhoolenge ??"
"Aley par Mai toh Roz shaam ko aakar jhoolti hoon yahan. Aap mele aane se pehle ya mele aane ke baad jhool lijiye na"completed Samaira with a satisfactory smile.
"Nahi ! Humari jab marzi hogi tab hum jhoolenge"
"Nahi mai jhoolungi"
"Humne Kaha na hum jhoolenge" declared the boy pushing her down. Her elbow got scratched as she fell down and began to cry. Sameer quickly went down started blowing air on her injury.
"It's okay baccha. Kuch Nahi hua. Bas thodi si hi toh lagi hai. Kuch Nahi Hota. Okay. Ab Rona band Karo" said Sameer wiping off her tears and picking her up. Soon Suman came and saw Samaira crying a little and an unknown man standing near her and they were taking to those little boys.
"Ye Aapne usey dhakka dekar neeche kyu giraya ?? Dekho, aap sab baari baari jhoola jhool Lena. Isme itni ladne wali kya Baat Hai. Aur aap, Agli Baar se aise Kisi ko bhi chot Nahi pahuchana. Ye galat Baat hoti hai. Chalo ab apne Ghar jao. Andhera ho Raha Hai." completed Sameer like a gentleman. Suman was watching all this and was quite impressed by his understanding nature. Then she went to Samaira and sat in front of her looking at her injury.
"Kya Hua samaira ?? Aapko kaise lagi ?? Aap theek ho na ??" asked suman worriedly.
"Hhhaan aunty. Mai ttheek hoon. Ye uncle Hain na, unhone mujhe jhoole par se girne se bacha liya tha walna aur chot lag jaati. Thank you uncle meli madad Kne ke liye. Aap bohot Acche ho. Thanks. Ab Ghar chalein aunty ?? Mumma aane wali hongi na ??"
"Thank you Jo Aapne isey girne se bacha liya warna nai ... I mean Iski mummy bohot pareshaan ho jaati. Waise aap yahan naye Hain kya ?? Aapko pehle Kabhi Dekha Nahi ?!" asked Suman.
"Ji haan. Mai isi building me Naya Aaya hoon. Second floor pe." answered Sameer with a sweet smile.
"Oh Acha ! Aap humare Ghar ke saamne rehne Aaye Hain. Aap flat number 103 me rehne Aaye Hain na ??" asked suman getting a yes in response she further added "Hum 101 me rehte Hain aur Samaira aur uski mummy 102 me"
"Oh toh hum neighbours Hain. I'm Sameer Nice meeting you suman ji and little angel Samaira" said Sameer with his usual smile.
Listening "Sameer" suman's smile faded for one second but when she looked at him, she confirmed that he wasn't that Sameer whom she was thinking of. Further, they walked towards their respective homes together.
"Aap kaunsi class me ho princess ??"
Not getting a response Sameer asked "Aap mujhse Baat Nahi karoge princess ??"
"Mumma ne Kaha hai ki strangers se Baat Nahi Karni Chahiye. Mai aapse pehli Baal mili hoon toh abhi jyada Baat Nahi kalungi." completed Samaira heading towards Suman's home when Sameer replied reflexly " bohot acchi Baat sikhayi hai aapki mummy ne"
Suman and Samaira smiled at Sameer and getting the same smile back, everyone's moved towards their home. Suman just felt in her heart that in just a meet of half an hour, Sameer and Samaira have shared much attention without any hesitation as if they are bounded together. Her chain of thoughts were broken as Naina rushed inside her home and quickly closed the door. She was panting heavily and hugged Samaira quickly.
"Naina ! Kya Hua ?? Tu theek hai na ??" asked suman nervously.
"Wwwwo .... www...wwo log firse yahan dikhe ?!" 😫
"Kyaaaa !!!!" getting a positive nod after her big exclamation, she quickly shut all the windows and drew the curtains. Samaira was looking at the havoc caused around and was wondering of all the happenings.
"Aley kya ho Gaya ?? Aap log itna ghabra kyu rahe ho ??" asked samaira in her babyish tone.
"Sssamira ... Aaap jjaake TV Dekho. Jao" ordered Naina and samaira went to watch her favourite cartoon. Suman sat heavily beside Naina and rubbed her back.
"It's okay Naina. Sab theek hai. Tttu zyada chinta mat Kar. Unhone toh tujhe Nahi Dekha na ??"
"Nahi par ... Wo ek na ek din Zaroor dhoond lenge. Mmmujhe bohot darr lag Raha Hai Suman. Mmmmeri bacchi ko Kuch Kar Diya toh ??? Mmmai kya karoongi Suman ?!" panicked Naina as she began to cry.
"Shhh ... Shhaant ho ja. Kuch Nahi hoga. Tu ekdum surakshit hai aur Samaira bhi. Tujhe Apne aapko bas humesha savdhaan rakhna hai. Baaki Mai aur Shekhar toh Hain hi na tere liye." assured Suman engulfing Naina in her arms. Their warm hug broke as the doorbell rang. Naina's heartbeat increased as she almost jumped in terror.
"Mmmai dekhti hoon" said suman heading towards the door. Naina shut her eyes horror and suman opened the door.
"Arey tum aa Gaye" said suman happily. Naina opened her both eyes one by one and took a breath of relief seeing Shekhar entering.
"Tum kaho toh office me hi reh jaaun waise bhi Ghar me kaunsa ... Arey Naina ! Tum yahan." said shekhar smiling at her.
"Haan bhaiya wo bas Samaira ko yahan chhodkar gayi thi bahar gayi thi toh. Bas lene aayi hoon. Chale baby ??" said Naina plainly not making an eye contact with him. She held Samaira's hand and both moved towards their home. Shekhar stared her in confusion but chose to remain quiet as he could see in her eyes that she has cried. As suman closed the door, Shekhar asked loosening his tie "arey Naina ko kya hua ?? Ye ro rahi thi kya ?? Sab theek hai na??"
"Nahi. Usne aap firse unko Dekha toh darr gayi bohot zyada. Isliye ghabrayi hui thi. Maine samjha Diya hai. Ah theek hai thodi." completed suman with a sigh.
