Kokila was roaming in the room with a tensed face. She was still dazed. She couldn't believe what Mahir said.
Kokila: Excitement ke wajah se bhi uska pulse-rate jyada ho sakta hai.
Mahir: Nahi Bua.
Kokila: Tum aise kaise nahi keh sakte ho?!
Mahir: Kyunki aisa nahi hota hai. Bua, aapko mujhpar abhi bharosa nahi hai, thik hai! Yeh pulse-rate ko bhi rehne do, main bhi aapke tarh ek gynaecologist hu, na?
Kokila nods in acceptance.
Mahir: Phir main aise kaise kisi ke baare main bol sakta hun. Aapko bhi pata hai ki main itna careless nahi hun. Aapne hi toh mujhe sab sikhaya hai.
Kokila: Par ab kya? Wo pregnant hai. Hum ab kya karenge?
Mahir: Wahi toh kuch samaj nahi aa raha.
Kokila(angrily): Mujhe toh aisa lagta hai ki main abhi bahar jaakar un Sharmas se confront kar du ki kyu aapne humse jhoot bola? Kyu hame fasaya? Kyu itna.....
A knock was heard on the door.
Kokila (irritatingly): Kon hai?
She was Bela who came to call Mahir for post-marital rituals.
Bela: Main hun.
Mahir(From the room): Kon?
Bela: Main Bela. Wo Di tayyar hai. Aap aa rahe hai na?
Mahir: Haan. Main aata hun.
Bela: Jaldi aayiyega. Di aapki raah dekh rahi hai.
Mahir: Haan.
Bela went to the hall.
Mahir took his clothes from the wardrobe.
Kokila: Tum change kyu kar rahe ho?
Mahir: Matlab?
Kokila: Tum change karke bahar jaane wale ho?
Mahir gave her a 'Yes, any problem' look.
Kokila: Phir toh chalo hi bahar. Hum sabko sach bata denge aur yeh shaadi tod denge.
Mahir: Mujhe change toh karne do.
Mahir went in the changing room and Kokila was still confused, standing in the room.
Kokila: Matlab tum chup rehke jo kuch ho raha hai use waise hi chalne doge.
Mahir: Yeh situation sabke liye bahot awkward hai. Is baare mein kya karna chahiye yeh mujhe abhi kuch pata nahi. Yeh sab bolna bahot easy hai par execute hona sabse mushkil hai. Mujhe Vish ki itni si bhi fikr nahi hai. Sirf hamare parivar aur uske Dada-Dadiji ki chinta hai.
Kokila: Matlab? Tum kehna kya chahte ho?
Till then, Mahir came out of the changing room.
Mahir: Agar ab yeh shaadi tut gayi toh Maa ko zaroor kuch na kuch hoga. Shayad Dadi ko bhi!
Kokila: Ab isse jyada aur kya bura hoga? Aur hum milke sab sambhal lenge.
Mahir: Aapko pata hai, jab shaadi hui thi tab Dadi ne kaha tha ki use apne great-grandchildren dekhne hai. Vish ki Dadi boli ki unhone apne pushtaini jewels modkar naye jewellery banayi thi. Wo toh usi pal heart-attack se mar jayenge!
(Don't think bad about Mahir as he is directly saying such harsh truths. He is a doctor so, he is thinking practically. Also, he is heartbroken and ditched.)
Mahir: Ab aap hi batao ki bahar jaake main yeh shaadi tod di ya phir khush rehne ki koshish karu?
Kokila's eyes were tearing up.
Mahir: In sab ke expectations ko yun hi tor dena chahiye mujhe? Yeh bahot jyaada maayne jo rakhte hai!
Kokila: Atlast, kya decide kiya tumne?
Mahir: Vish pregnant hai yeh hum sab se chupa kar rakhenge. Atleast abhi toh kuch nahi bolenge.
Kokila: Matlab ab tum chup rehke apne hi haathon se apni zindagi barbaad kar doge.
Mahir: Main chup rehke bahot saare logon ke zindagi ko barbaad hone se bacha raha hun.
Kokila looked at him with 'Still Think' look.
But, Mahir gave her a helpless look.
Mahir was about to go, when Kokila spoke up.
Kokila: Kaan kol kar sun lo, Mahir. Agar ek baar tum yaha se chale gaye toh phir wapis nahi aa sakoge.
Mahir looked at her for a brief second and then, turned around to go.
He unlocked the door and went out.
He stood there for a while and turned back again and went to his room...
