Saat Vachan (Completed)

Part 19

"Main aaj kamre se bahar nahi niklungi.....aur niklu hi kyun? Shiva toh mujhe rang lagayega hi nahi aur upar se mujh par hi illzaam lagayega."

"Yeh Chipkali......Happy Holi."
"Shiva...tu yaha? Aur mujhe chipkali keh kar kitne dino ke baad mujhe bula raha hain tu..kya ho gaya hain tujhe?"
"Ehsaas.....ehsaas hua hain mujhe ki ab tak main bekaar mein hi tujhse jhoothi nafrat karta raha. Mujhe tujhse directly aa kar pooch lena chahiye tha ki uss din kya hua tha."
"Tu agar mujhse pooch leta na directly toh main tujhe bata hi deti...chal abhi bata deti hoon.......uss din....
"Ek minute ruk.....pehle........Happy Holi."
Saying this Shiva applied colours on Raavi's cheek.
Raavi rubbed her cheeks against Shiva's transferring the colour from her cheeks to Shiva's. Shiva then hugged Raavi tightly.
Raavi(in Shiva's embrace): Shiva...mujhse please kabhi fir duriyaan mat taer karna.
Shiva(hugging Raavi's hug): Kabhi nahi karunga....I promise.....
Raavi(in Shiva's embrace): Aur tu apna gussa bhi kaboo kar le.....kyunki mujhe bohot darr lagta hain tere gusse se.
Shiva(hugging Raavi): Kar loonga...tere liye sab kuch kar loonga......lekin tu mujhse waada kar ki tu mujhe chod kar nahi jaaegi kabhi.
Raavi(in Shiva's embrace): Pakka promise.....
Shiva kissed on Raavi's forehead.
Suddenly Raavi pushed Shiva and he fell down on the ground. Shiva opened his eyes and found himself in the room actually on the floor of his room. He stood up and sat down on the bed only to find Krrish sitting down on the floor.
Shiva: Yeh.....yaha kya kar raha hain?
Krrish: Meri chod...tu bata tu kya kar raha hain. Sapne mein kisko jhappiyaan de raha tha? Mujhe pakad ke mujhe kiss karne waala tha......tab maine tujhe dhakka maar diya.
Shiva: Vo...main sapna dekh raha tha......aur vo galati se ho gaya. Sorry........
Krrish: Kiske sapne dekh raha tha? Aur subah uth kar jab bahar gaya tha.....toh firse aa kar so kyun gaya?
Shiva: Sab kuch tujhe kyun bataun?
Krrish: Theek hain....mat bata.......accha tu Holi khelne aa raha hain na?
Shiva: Haan...aata hoon.....Raavi ready ho gayi?
Krrish: Teri memory loss ho gayi hain kya? Raavi kabhi holi nahi khelti...aur waises2p bhi...tu kyun pooch raha hain uske baare mein?
Shiva: Aise hi......
Krrish: Aise hi pooch raha hain toh theek hain lekin....ek baat kaan khol kar sunn le...aaj agar tu ne Raavi ko kuch bhi sunaya na toh mujhse bura koi nahi hoga.
Shiva: Haan haan samajh gaya...nikal yaha se....nikal.....
Krrish: Yaad rakhna....
Saying this Krrish left.

Shiva's POV(in mind)
Iss Krrish ko kya pata ki main Raavi ke saath aaj holi khel ke hi rahunga.

Main aa raha hoon Raavi tere paas. Tere saath holi khelne aur vo bhi itne saal baad. Aaj main tujhe sab sach bata doonga....ki kyun tujhe maine akela choda...kyun main tujhe hamesha ignore karta tha and vo sab kiya maine. Aur sach kahu na Raavi....toh ab na mujhe kuch nahi jaan na hain. Tere secret tera jab mann hoga...tab tu batana mujhe. I hope ki unn sab harkaton ke liye tu mujhe maaf karegi aur agar nahi karegi toh bhi....jo sazaa degi main sahene ke liye taiyaar hoon yaar. I just want to get back in your life and always stay in your world and life Raavi because main tere bina nahi reh sakta......na kal reh pata tha...na aaj reh pata hoon aur na hi kabhi reh paaunga.
Shiva's POV ends.

Shiva quickly got ready. He wore a white colored kurta. This kurta was really special for Shiva. No...he didn't buy it from some expensive cloth store or ordered or made it infact.....Raavi made this specially for Shiva. No....Shiva was not going to waste this kurta by playing holi......she made the kurta with the purpose only. When she saw that Shiva was upset due to Suman's scolding for wearing new cloth on Holi....she stitched I with her own hands and gave it to Shiva. Shiva understood as he saw Raavi's initial letter on the kurta which was a signature of Raavi on each cloth she stitched. It was the only source of income for Raavi. However, the stitching machine was given by Shiva to Raavi on her birthday buy ofcourse was given through Gautam and his name was hidden.
Shiva came to Raavi's room and knocked on the door but just after knocking on the door for once...the door opened and the room portrayed itself to be empty.
Shiva(in mind): Raavi kaha gayi?

"Arrey Raavi ruk......dheere bhaag."
Shiva(in mind)(frowning): Raavi bahar hain?
Shiva ran outside only to stay rooted at his place. His eyes teared up but not even a single tear flew down his cheeks. He saw Raavi applying colours on Shivam's cheek and her cheeks were already colored by someone and Shiva knew that it was Shivam.
That was not the most heartbreaking one....Raavi's words pierced Shiva's heart.
Raavi(with a big smile): Thank you Shivam....meri zindagi mein aane ke liye aur meri zindagi mein khushiyaan bharne ke liye.......tujhe pata hain...aaj tak mujhe itna maza kabhi nahi aaya. Tere saath reh kar na.....mujhe lag raha hain ki main bhi khush ho sakti hoon zindagi mein. I really want to be happy lekin ho nahi paati....tu kabhi mujhe chod kar nahi jaaega na? Agar tu chala gaya na toh meri khushiyaan bhi tere saath hi chali jaayegi.
Shivam: Nahi Raavi....nahi jaaunga main kabhi tujhe chod kar. Aur waise bhi tu sach mein khushiyaan deserve karti hain....accha tu na yahi ruk main bas abhi aaya.
Raavi: Kaha jaa raha hain?
Shivam: Tu ne bohot bhaang pee li hain...utarni zaroori hain.....
Raavi: Nahi.....mat jaa....
Shivam: Arrey main bas abhi gaya abhi aaya...tu yahi ruk..kahi jaana mat. Okay?
Raavi: Okay.......
Shivam left.
Just then Raavi's eyes fell on Shiva.
Raavi(drunk): Hi Shiva......ruk..main aa rahi hoon......
Raavi came to Shiva and stumbled while coming towards him. Shiva saved her from falling.
Shiva: Sambhal kar.......
Raavi(drunk)(chuckling): Ab kya faida? Ab kyun mujhe sambhal raha hain Shiva...chod mujhe.....
Saying this Raavi detached herself from Shiva.
Raavi(drunk): Tujhe ek baat pata hain Shiva? Bachpan mein na hamesha main ek sacche dost ke liye tadapti rehti thi lekin teri wajah se kisi ne kabhi mujhse dosti ki hi nahi. Kyun? Kyun kiya aisa? Mujhse badla lene ke liye? Agar badla hi lena tha toh mujhe jaan se hi maar deta.....neend ki goliyaan mila deta mere khaane mein....fir toh sab khatam ho hi jaata...mujhse chutkaara mil jaata tujhe...toh fir aisa kyun kiya tu ne Shiva? Mujhe kyun itna tadpaya? Main maanti hoon ki meri wajah se kaka ki jaan chali gayi lekin main....meri usmein poori galati nahi thi...maine jaan mooch kar kuch nahi kiya tha...aur tu ne meri baat hi nahi suni....bas seedha sazaa suna di. Kyun? Itni buri hoon main?
Shiva(teary eyed): Tu buri nahi hain Raavi....main  bura hoon.
Raavi(drunk): Nahi nahi....tere hisaab se toh main buri hoon. Sabke hisaab se main asubh hoon. Jaanta hain jab sab yeh sab bolte hain na tab mujhe bohot dard hota hain lekin jab tu bolta hain na tab mera dil toot jaata hain. Hala ki ab toh addat par gayi hain dard sahene ki. Accha Shiva...mujhe ek baat bata....tu jaan na chahta hain ki uss din kya hua tha? Chal...bata hi deti hoon...apna kaan idhar laa.......
Shiva came close to Raavi. Raavi went close to Shiva and then spoke......
Raavi(whispering): Uss din...jab main ghar waapis aayi na tab......
