Mere Humsafar

Argument?

Anubhav waited for Haseena impatiently, outside the hospital ward. He was worried for the woman he saw on the bed.

AS- kya hua Haseena?

HM- theek hai abhi pehle se bahout behtar. Miscarriage ke chances ho sakte the...(terrified) lekin woh sab dare hue hai Anu. Humme nahi lagta woh khud jaake gawahi denge. Khuch aur gadbad hui toh ho sakta hai woh apni complain bhi wapis lele. Apni beti ko already kho chuke hai. Ab ek ajaname bache pe toh khatre nahi mol lenge na.

AS- apne gharwalo ko toh surakshit rakh nahi paaye...woh humpe kyu bharosa karenge. Waise bhi policewalo ki khuch khaas achi image nahi hai... (He frustratedly hits his fist on the nearby chair)

HM- kya kar rahe hai Anu...? Hospital hai...IG sir bhi hai.

AS- saara plan bigad gaya humara Haseena. Family bhi peeche hat gayi toh kaise hum uss bachi ko insaaf dilayenge? CCTV wala evidence toh hum pehle leak kar chuke... (Angrily)

HM- shaant ho jaiye Anu. Aapke yoon chilane se khuch nahi hoga. Balki unke gharwale aur dar jayenge...

AS- kya shaant ho jaye hum?! (He growled at her but softened his voice as other officers including IG and hospital staff looked at him. He held her hand harshly) aapko kya farak padta hai Haseena... suspend toh hum hue hai...wardi aur izzat humari daav pe lagi hai...

Anger spilled through his eyes...she licked her lips to control her tears. He stormed out while she looked back at the IG who looked at them. Turning opposite she smirked wiping off her fake tears.

"Chahe kitna bhi acha insaan ho apni wife ko apne se upar nahi dekh sakta. Kitna mushkil socha tha humme in dono se nipatna par shayad humara kaam ho gaya hai", he whispered to himself while seeing Haseena departing with a long and dull face.

Next day Anubhav and Haseena came back home after a long tiring day successfull in misleading IG about their fight. They tried a lot to convince their family to stand strong with the deceased girl but the fear of safety of the rest of the members made them reluctant.

Unknown a storm of their angry mother's was waiting for them, specially for Anubhav.

Maa- (angry) Anubhav! Is tarha ki seekh di hai maine tujhe? Ye koi tareeka hai apni biwi se baat karne ka woh bhi sabke saamne?

AnuSeena stood confused untill yesternight's hospital conversation hit their heads.

HM- Aap jaisa...

Ammi- Kabhi nahi socha tha Anubhav tum aise vyavhaar karoge. Maante hai tumhara suspension hua...lekin uski wajah se Haseena pe aisa chilaoge? Humme nahi pata kya galti hui, kiski galti hui...jaante hai baat ghambir hai, lekin ye koi tareeka nahi hota (she too scolded him without knowing the matter entirely)

Anubhav looked helplessly at her. He felt hurt that in course of caring for her they didn't trust him. It was obvious his duty was above everyone. Sometimes he lost his temper too...but her respect stayed as his priority. An additional thing was how did they got to know about this?
Haseena got worried looking at their angry glares.

HM- Maa Ammi...pehle aap ye bataiye ki aapko kisne bola ye sab?

Maa- TV pe us case ki reporting ho rahi hai...wahi se kisine dekha aur humme phone Kiya...log kya kya baatein kar hai tumhe pata bhi hai?

AS- logo ki baat aap sun rahi hai Maa lekin humari baat nahi sun rahi? (He rolled his eyes and said in a cold tone already frustrated with the case)

HM- Haan Maa. Aapne jo bhi dekha woh sach nahi hai...hum dono ye case ke liye hi kar rahe hai...
