"Haan, Aapne aise kyun pucha?" she confusingly asked Rita ji.
Rita ji glared at Sidharth who looked totally guilty for lying to her.
"Yeh, mera beta hain." She answered.
Shehnaaz was surprised that Dr. Sidharth who is totally different from Rita ji, not by just looks but by nature also, was actually her son.
'Dr. Sidharth, inka beta hain? Matlab itna khadoos insaan itne sweet auraat ka beta. Ek ke muh me kitni mithaas aur dusra muh to kholta ta hi nehi aur agar khol vi liya to vi mithaas konsi chiz hain unko pata hi nehi. Ek ki height itni hain ki baat karte waqt logoke gardaan hi dhukhne lage, aur dusre kitne chhote se cute se hain. Hayee rabba, mere bacche agar inse baat kare to unsaab ko lageka ki who first floor ke taraf dikh rahe hain. Gardaan hi akaad jani hain mere baccho ke. Itna vi kyun lamba hona?' Shehnaaz thought.
"Yeh sach me aapka beya hain, Aunty?"she asked to be sure.
"Haan, sach me hi hoga, jhoot ka beta kaise hota hain?" Rita ji said laughing at Shehnaaz but still angry with Sidharth for lying to her.
"Lagte nehi ho, bilkul alaag ho, Aap kitni sweet ho aur_" she bite her tongue stopping herself in midway.
"Excuse me! What do you mean Ms. Shehnaaz." Sidharth interrupted sensing what she meant.
"Wohh main to bass" she again didn't complete and looked at his Mom with a puppy face.
"Dara maat mere bacchi ko. Galat kya bola usne." Rita ji said to Sidharth.
"Aap meri Mom ho na?" Sidharth complained as she took Shehnaaz's side
"kitne jealouse hain aapka beta" Shehnaaz said and Sidharth rolled his eyes. Rita ji chuckled.
"Tumhe pata hain beta Ashok, iske Dad vi mere height ke hi the. Jab Sidharth ki height barhne lagi to humne vi socha ki aab rukega, par ye lamba hota hi gaya. Mere sare bacche lambe hain. Iske behene vi iske jine hi hain." Rita ji said
Shehnaaz giggled with her when she heard a voice
"Sana, kya kar ri hain. Sabko de aur back stage ja. Tujhe bacche dhund rahe hain."
Sidharth turned to see that was Asim's voice. He called her Sana. Sana must be her nickname. So calls her by her nickname and also dances with her. Now he is disturbing her to talk with him and his mother. This guy is such a disturb. Sidharth already doesn't like this guy without even talking to him for once.
"Haan, ja rahi hoon." Shehnaaz also shouted saying then looked back at his moher
"aunty main jati hu." She said to her, then hugged her looking at Sidharth twisting her lips. Teasing him. Showing she has his mother on her side.
Sidharth chuckled. The next minute she was out of sight.
Sidharth's mother turned to his side.
"Why did you lie?" she asked sternly.
"Sorry Mom." he said guilty
"No, give me the reason. Why you had to lie to me. As I know you don't lie to me. Or do you?" she sounded like she was hurt. Thinking why he had to lie over a small matter.
"Mom, I just wanted you not to worry about me. Aap waise vi itna tension lete ho mere liye." He said to make his mother more confuse
"What are you saying? Tum mujhe bologe ke tum shehnaaz ko jaante aur iss chiz se mujhe tension hogi. Par kyun?" she asked
"Because I met her in an accident. And the accident was caused by me. But I wasn't guilty" Sidharth stated the whole story to her mom next few minutes. Of course skipping the dream and imagination.
His mother understood but gave him some advice to drive safe and all. What he knew was coming. But she was worried about Shehnaaz also.
Being a possessive guy in everything he loves to keep his things and relations to himself but he found a happiness here to know that his mother actually cares about her.
They stayed there till the end. Shehnaaz was too busy. They saw it all. They gave a check of 5 lacs in the fund. Rita ji and Sidharth talk to Mrs. Sarita for some minutes. Where she also praised Shehnaaz because of the successful and happy function. Children of the NGO was very happy. Sidharth was hell impressed with Shehnaaz if he wasn't enough already.
"Sidharth, idhar aa beta." Rita ji called him.
He went to her room where she was sitting with a album in her hand. He sat near her and looked at her,
"kya hain ye sab, Mom" he asked picking a picture from bed. It was him with both of his parents. Sidharth was trying to get on his father's shoulder. His mother was laughing at them. The picture held a great memory of them together. he chuckled at his naughtiness. He was very naughty in childhood.
"kitne khush lag raha hain tu. Jidd kar raha tha ki tujhe tere dad ke kandhe pe charna hain. Badmash tha bohot. Par hum bohut khush the. Tujhe yaad hain ?" she looked at already smiling Sidharth.
"Haan, kuch kuch." He replied
"Insaan ki life ki asli happiness kahan hoti hain pata hain?" she again asked. He just looked questioningly at his mother. She continued
"Genuine human relationship is the main roots of happiness." She smiled at him. He did the same thinking about their family. When she again continued
"Jaab main tere Dad se peheli baar mili, uss din hi mujhe pata tha ki wohh special hain, par wohh hi baad me mere sab kuch ban jayenge ye nehi pata tha. College khatam hote hi hamari saadi ho gayi. Uske baad samjh aya ki life kitni adhuri thi. Jo sirf tere Dad ke aane ke baad hi puri huyi. I felt completed. Meri llife complete ho gayi sirf ek insaan ke aanese. Maine unko puri haq de diya par yeh nehi laga ki kisiki kyun mujhpe, mere life pe itna interference hoga. Kabhi vi nehi. Kyun ki ye feeling sirf gairo ko saath hota hain. Aapno se nehi. Ulta mujhe is me bhi complete feel hua. Aur ye sirf meri nehi, tere dad ki vi haalath thi. Wo to mujhe hamesha kehete the ki unke bikhre hue life ko maine sambhal liya. Unke life me thehraav aaya." She paused.
Sidharth smiled broadly hearing his mother. They were actually a happy couple. He saw them so happy and in love when he was alive. He found a peace in his heart hearing about his parents.
"Hum life me kitne vi khush rahe, kabhi akele complete nehi hote. Issliye sayed hamare pas do haath hain, do pair hain, do akhein hain par Dil sirf ek. Taaki koyi aur hamare life me aake apne dil se humara life complete kare." She said placing a hand over sidharth's hand. Sidharth know got some idea where this can go.
"Aap aaj mujhe ye saab kyun bol rahe ho?" he asked already knowing the reason.
"kyun ki beta main chahiti hu ki tere life vi puri ho jaye. Tere liye bhi koyi ho jo mere baad tera khayal rakkhe. Jo tera saath de" she said with hope in her eyes and concern in her voice.
"Mom." he rolled his eyes. "Aap ko pata hain na sab kuch. Phir se aisa nehi ho sakta." He told with seriousness.
"Waisa phirse kabhi nehi hoga. I guarantee.
He chuckled mocking her guarantee
"Like seriously Mom. you guarantee. How can you do so?"
"because I know someone who will never do that." She said
"Aap ko kaise pata ki aap jise jannte ho wohh aisa nehi karegi." He asked
"Maine duniya dekhi hain. Itni to pehchaan hain insaan ki" she said which didn't convince him and he stood up
"Mom mujhe aur nehi baat karni iss bare me." Saying this he was about to leave the room when she said loudly.
"Sidharth, Main chahiti hoon ki tu Shehnaaz se Saadi kar le."
His feet froze at its place.
