Kuchh Ankahi Baatein

Jaise ko Taisa

Naina Preeti reached home and saw Taiji was sitting on swing and Bela was in kitchen preparing lunch for all. Seeing Naina's bandage in hand she shouts on her, "O bai... ab kahaan se toot phoot kar aa gayi maharani.. ek din yeh ladki chen se jeene nahin deti... aise hi girti padti rahi toh sagaai tutne mein der nahin lagegi... pata nahin kya dekha un logon ne ismein jo apne ghar ki bahu banane ko raazi ho gaye ... na shakal na surat aur us par apahij ladki.. zindagi bhar jab bojh uthaana padega na tab pata chalega us hero ko, do din mein hi saara pyaar ka bhoot utar jayega..."

she keeps taunting her when Bela came from kitchen and saw her in bandage gets worried, "kya hua beta.. tujhe lagi kaise.. chal tu andar ja, mein haldi wala doodh laati hun.. Preeti tu lekar ja isse.." to avoid more taunts for her she sends them inside and went in kitchen to prepare milk for her...

After changing in comfort clothes, Naina asked Preeti to give a pain killer as it was paining too much which she was hiding from Sameer as he was already very much tensed... seeing her lost Preeti sits beside her.. "kya soch rahi hai Naina... aaj achchha hua jo Sunaina ka kissa hamesha ke liye khatam ho gaya.. bas kisi tarah se in O Bai ke munh par bhi taala lag jaaye toh bhagwan ko prasad chadaau.."

Naina with blank expression on her face said, "Preeti kahin Taiji ki baat sach toh nahin ho jayegi... kab tak Sameer mere liye aise pareshaan hota rahega.. tujhe pata hai aaj mein kitni khush thi ki pehli baar itne saalon baad mein akele sidiyon se utar rahi thi... aaj koi darr, koi chinta nahin thi, aaj mujhe chakaar bhi nahin aaye, par phir bhi yeh sab ho gaya... meri zindagi mein koi bhi khushi jyaada der tak tikati hi nahin hai... toh mein usse kaise khush rakh paaungi.. kahin maine galti toh nahin kar di na... socha tha mujhe akele aate dekh voh khushi se mujhe gale laga lega par dekh kya ho gaya, voh issi guilt mein hai ki uski wajah se yeh sab hua agar voh mujhe akela chhod kar nahin jaata... hamesha mere saath hi yeh sab kyun hota hai.. kitna bhi kar lun kuchh na kuchh kami rah hi jaati hai..." tears start rolling down from her cheeks..

Preeti wiped her tears and hug her tightly to calm her.. "paagal hai kya kuchh bhi sochti hai... Taiji ki baatein ab bhi tujhe affect karti hai... chhod na kyun sunti hai unaki.. voh zindagi mein kabhi kisi ka achchha nahin soch sakti toh tera kaise sochengi... voh jalti hai tujhse, teri zindagi mein itani khushiyaan dekh kar... jo Insaan dil ka maila ho na usaki baaaton par dhyaan nahin dete... chal tu aaraam kar varna aur dard badh jayega aur yeh sab faltu baatein apne dimaag se nikaal de, samjhi, tujhe pata hai na Sameer kitna pyaar karta hai tujhse..." saying this she helped her to laid down and left the room leaving her alone to rest... but sleep was far away from her eyes...

Today's incident and Taiji's word deeply hurt her so much, shuddered her all confidence and trust on herself... it's all echoed in her mind making her cry hard.... getting so much restless she sits back and keep thinking about him that how much he was happy today since morning, his flirty mood, his romantic acts, whole day he was holding her hand which all ended up soon, leaving him all disturbed and hurt because of her only...

Something strikes in her mind and she gets down from bed holding corner of the bed.. she keeps standing there for some time and tried to walk without any support.. "agar mein sidiyon se akele utar sakti hun toh kyun na bina sahare chalne ki koshish karun.... isase toh meri saari pareshaani hi dur ho jayegi aur Sameer bhi kitna khush ho jayega..." the worst idea cropped up in her mind to get rid out of her all problems....

Gaining all courage in herself she takes her first step and in minute she was about to fall on floor when Sameer hold her on time in his strong arms.. she looked him shockingly... he helped her to sit back on bed and before she said anything he shouts back on her, "dimaag kharaab ho gaya hai tumhara... kuchh bhi karti hao... kya bewkoofi thi yeh.. haan.. bolo.. subah itane bade accident se bachi ho aur ab yeh sab... jara bhi fiqr nahin hai na apani tumhein... kisi ke dard ka ehsaas nahin hai na... Naina tum kab se itni selfish ho gayi ki tumhein nahin dikhta ki tumhari jara si takleef mujhe kitna dard deti hai.. agar abhi mein nahin aata toh pata hai na kya hota... kyun karti ho tum aise... kyun nahin samajhati ki mere liye sirf tum maayne rakhti ho, meri Khushi sirf tum se hai, aur kuchh nahin chahiye mujhe... mujhe nahin farq padta agar tum nahin chal sakti bina sahare ke.... kya itne waqt mein bhi mein tumhein yeh vishwas nahin dila paaya ki mera dil sirf tumhare liye dhadakta hai.... bolo Naina... kya tha yeh sab, kya karne ki koshish kar rahi thi, kya saabit karna chahti ho, kyun mujhe meri hi najaron mein gira rahi ho ki tumhare saare dardo ki wajah sirf mein hun... nahin khush rakh pa raha mein tumhein..." tears start rolling from his cheeks too...
