Bondita's p.o.v
"Bondita didi!!!"
An ear-piercing scream from Tapur was the first response I got after silencing everyone else by introducing myself at my 'Mayka'. Not that I'm complaining about it. After so much adventure and heart breaks, it actually felt like music to ears – knowing someone really cared about me the way I wanted them to. Unlike some others...
"Didi! Didi! Didi!" Tapur ran and enclosed me in a bone-crushing hug.
"Tapur" I acknowledged back, clutching her cheeks and beaming at her in return.
"Bondita?" Maa more like murmured to herself.
"Haan Maa. Mein tumhari Bondita hi hoon"
I nodded at Tapur and made my way towards her. A silent tear strolled down one of cheek her but she wiped it almost immediately and turned away from me.
"Kyun aayi ho yahan?" she enquired accusingly.
"Kyun aayi ho? Mein apni ghar nahi aa sakti? Apni Maa, behn aur Thaku Maa se mil nahi sakti?" I gave my signature pose – hands on my hips.
"Itni parvah thi apni Maa ki toh itni der kyun ki tumne? Tum London se aake apni Maa se milna toh zaroori nahi samjha na? Aj itne maheenon baad apni Maa, behn aur Thaku Maa ki yaad keise aagayi tumhe?" she pointed out.
"Ah!" I relaxed myself and smiled sheepishly "Toh yeh baat hai" I slowly stepped forward and engulfed her in a back hug "Apni Bondita ko maaf kar do na Maa. Apni uss galti ko sudharne hi toh mein wapas aayi hoon! Dekho mein tumhare liye kya kya laayi hoon. Kambal, mithayiyaan aur haan" I released her and opened my bag to retrieve my special gift for her "Yeh dekho" I whirled to face her and kept the piece of cloth to see how it looks on her "Tumhare liye khaas London street se sweater laayi hoon. Tune chitti mein likhi thi na ki tumhe dhand se takleef ho rahi hai. Yeh pehnkar soyegi na, toh thand tumhare paas tak aane ki himmat nahi karegi, shotti!" I pinched my throat.
She snatched the sweater and threw it away.
"Dhat pagli! Tumhe kya lagta hai, mein tumhari in taufon se maan jayegi? Mujhe yeh sab nahi, apni beti chahiye!"
"Khud ko bhi toh layi hoon na mein. Tumhari beti hi toh tumhare paas hai" I showed my best ever puppy eyes "Gale nahi lagaungi apni beti ko?"
She snorted and pounced on me for a big, long, warming, motherly hug. I relaxed myself in her hold, feeling peace after so long in my life. The wonders of a mother!
"Matlab... tumne mujhe maaf kiya?" I tried.
"Chalo" she leaned back and caressed my cheek "Maaf kiya tumhe" she completed with a wet kiss on my forehead.
My grin widened, only for it to freeze in mid-air not after a minute.
"Maafi aur karz, donon bina soche samjhe nahi dena chahiye!"
With a semi-pleasant smile, I turned to face the owner of the voice.
"Thaku Maa" I leaned forward and took her blessings.
