"Sameer, tumhe pata hain, aaj kya hain?"
"Umm..nahi! Tum batao!"
"Uf-ho! Tum na buddhu ke saath-saath ek number ke bhulakkad bhi ho! Tumhe Yaad nahi hain kya ki aaj kya hain?"
"Aisa kya hain Naina? Aaj na toh tumhara janamdin hain na mera. Aur shaadi ki anniversary bhi nahi hain. Toh aisa kya hain aaj?"
"Uff! Tumhara kuch nahi ho sakta! Arey buddhu, aaj 6th June hain!!"
"Haan toh?"
She slaps her forehead.
"6th june..6th june! Kya hain? Ek minute! Naina, mujhe pata lag gaya ki aaj kya hain"
A smile forms on her lips .
"Toh aakhir kaar janaab ko pata lag hi gaya ki aaj kya hain!"
"Aaj humare pyaar ke rishtey ko shuru hue 6 saal ho gaye. 6 saal pehle, aaj hi ke din, maine tumhe propose kiya tha! Dekha main nahi bhoola!"
"Huh! Bhoole nahi hote toh itni der lagti kya yeh bolne mein? Bade aaye!"
"Accha, Suno na! Woh sab chodo. Aaj humara special day hain na toh...
"Toh?"
"Toh..."
He lifts her in his arms, making her gasp by his sudden move.
"Sa.. Sameer?? Yeh kya kar rahe ho?"
"Abhi kahan kuch kiya hain Janeman? Jo karna chahta hoon, usi ke liye hi toh tumhe kamre mein le jaa raha hoon!"
She blushes a deep red understanding the implications of his words.
"Yahi shuru karun kya?"
"Dhat! Bahut besharam ho gaye ho tum toh!"
"Kya karun? Jab itni khoobsurat biwi ho na toh sharam karna mushkil ho jata hain!"
She blushes even more and hides her head in his chest
He punches his fist against the wall to stop her memories from flooding his brain. But like always, it's of no use.
She is the essence of his very being. He had loved her with all that he had!
"I hate you Naina! I hate you! Chahe tumhari yaadein kitni bhi sataye, tumne jo kiya main uske liye tumhe kabhi maaf nahi kar sakta!!"
"Nahi! Main tumhe maaf nahi karoonga!"
"Par kyun? Aisi kaunsi galti ho gayi mujhse?"
"Galti? Bahut badi galti!! Tum bhool kaise sakti ho?"
"Main kya bhool gayi Sameer? Aise kyun chilla rahe ho?"
"I can't believe this! Tumhe kya ho gaya hain Naina? How can you not remember it's Preeti's b'day today when it's you who wishes her first every year?"
"Oh shit! I'm so sorry! Kaam ke tension mein bhool hi gayi!"
"Tumhare iss sorry se kya hoga Naina? Preeti kitni upset thi! Aisa kya important tha itna jo tum khudki behen ki b'day bhool gayi?"
"Woh..woh...kuch presentations deni thi. Bas woh hi!"
"Ab main tumhe maaf tabhi karoonga jab tum Preeti ko sorry bolkar, use manaogi!"
"Uf-ho Sameer! Ab bas bhi karo! Meri bhi ek professional life hain. Ek din kisika b'day kya bhool gayi, tum aise maafi maangne ke liye keh rahe ho? Main nahi maangne waali! Preeti koi choti bacchi nahi ki b'day na manane par rooth jaye. Huh!"
A shocked Sameer says
"Naina, yeh tum kya keh rahi ho? Yeh tum hi ho na? Yeh..."
"Yeh sab baatein mujhe abhi nahi karni. I'm tired so main jaa rahi hoon"
"Tum kyun itna badal gayi Naina? Aisi kaunsi kami reh gayi?"
He punches the wall yet again and cries hard.
"Aisa kyun kiya mere saath? "
That's when he hears a sound from the crib. He walks to it and sees his 1 year old baby struggling to breathe, despite the oxygen tube attached to it.
"Suman, baccha! Kuch nahi hoga tumhe!"
Saying this, he quickly got ready and rushed her to the hospital.
After 2 hours
Doctor: Dekhiye Mr.Maheshwari , by God's grace, she is stable now. But this is not good! Her health is deteriorating bit by bit and unfortunately, we don't have any prescribed treatment for this! We have increased the dose of oxygen a bit more. You can take her home tomorrow.
Sameer: Okay thank you doctor!
The doctor leaves and he sits on the bench. Tears flow from his eyes. He buries his head in his hands and tries to control his anguish.
"Sirf tumhari vajah se aaj mera baccha iss haalat mein hain! Sirf aur sirf tumhari vajah se aur iske liye main tumhe kabhi maaf nahi karoonga!"
The next day, he takes his daughter and heads home.

"Phir dobaara apni yeh shakal mujhe kabhi mat dikhana! Kaash main tumse mila hi na hota! Sharam aa rahi hain khudpar ki maine tum jaisi ko apne dil mein jagah di! Dafa ho jao yahan se!"
His words resonating in her ear, her eyes filled with tears,her hands start caressing his photo. She hugs his photo and cries her heart out!
If only they could be together forever!
Lovingly
