In army club
He is drinking whisky alone in a corner waiting for alekh....

When an elegant lady came to him..

Lady - is this place reserved

Rajveer - oh yes...
I am waiting for my wife
He said with a smile and the lady...gave him a vigilant look and moved on.

Sitting beside him naina raised her head from magazine.

Naina - really??

She gave him a look

Rajveer - I said truth
I am waiting for you....

Naina - apse na kuch bolna hi bekar hai...
Such a sweet lady
Go talk to her na...

She shaked his hand

Rajveer - tum na sample piece ho pata hai na tumhe
Kaun biwi apne husband ko kisi Aur aurat se bat karne ko motivate karti hai.

Just then alekh came in view with his eyebrows shrinked

Alekh - ap kisse bat kar rahe ho
He asked getting set on a chair in front of him.

Rajveer - teri behen se Aur kis se
He said without any fear

Alekh - apne phir dawai lena band kar di

Rajveer - han kar di....
And I have ridhu 's permission.....
To tu yaha baith ke gyan mat dena
Aur bata kyun bulaya hai.

Alekh made a face and tried to grab a goblet of whiskey....

And rajveer finished his

Alekh - ridhu kaisi hai...

Rajveer - She is having a blast
He said eating a cheese nugget

Alekh took one nugget too, and rajveer snatched the nugget from his hand

Rajveer - last month ki medical report mein tera cholesterol high aya hai.

Alekh made a face....
Alekh - ye Maya ki bachchi ko sab ugalna hota hai.

Rajveer - Ab tu bhi ugal
Kya hua hai

And with this alekh went serious

And kept the glass on table and and tried to search for proper words.

Rajveer - what
He asked as he saw alekh going extraordinary quite.

Alekh - main Aur nilu next month divorce ke liye file kar denge

He said with a heavy voice
And rajveer remained without changing expression.

Rajveer - agar faisla kar hi chuke ho
To mujhse kya bat karne aya ho...

He asked with a calm voice.

And alekh for a moment forgot that he is major general in army and again became that cadet who use to bother his rajveer sir for petty things.

Alekh - Maya......

He said with moist eyes

Rajveer - how is she taking things.
He asked

Alekh - Usne kaha ke agar hum alag hue to wo hUm dono mein se kisi ke sath nahi rahegi...
Australia shift hona chahti hai.... Transfer ke liye apply bhi kar diya Usne.

Rajveer - you do understand wo ye kyun kar rahi hai...

Alekh - I know sir...
Mujhe laga tha main use samjha lunga..

He said with sad eyes..... And rubbed his face with his hands... Out of exhaustion.

Alekh - main kya karun sir....
Mujhe kuch samajh nahi aa raha....

Rajveer - apne ap se ek sawal pucho
Kya tum Sach mein nilu se alag hona chahte ho.

He asked with straight eyes....

Alekh - sir ap....

Rajveer - jawab mujhe nahi
Apne ap ko do....

He kept his hand on his hand and alekh bowed his head.

Alekh - ap to sab kuch jante ho
Ap meri jagah hote to kya karte.

Alekh asked and rajveer saw him with sad eyes.

Rajveer - agar main tumhari jagah hota
To kisi haal mein apne pyar ko khud se dur nahi Jane deta.

He said and alekh felt a stab on his chest....

Rajveer chuckled and saw him with amusement

Rajveer - maine to mar ke bhi use Jane nahi diya...
He said and alekh suddenly felt light of insight filling his chest.

He carefully absorbed his words

Rajveer - log mujhe dewaana
Psycho..... Disturbed na Jane kya kya kehte hain....
But I don't care....
Jab tak main use dekh sakta hun
Usse bat kar sakta hun
Jab tak wo mere sath hai...
That's all I can ask for.

Alekh was shedding silent tears and rajveer smiled looking at him.
And saw his watch

Rajveer - shit I need to leave
Karan ghar pe wait kar raha hoga.
Chal ek kaam kar dinner aj sath karte hai.
Tujhe mere damaad ke hath ki biryani khilata hun....

Alekh - karan apke ghar pe kyun hai

They both walked towards parking talking

Rajveer - ridhu use vetaal ki tarah mere gale pe taang ke gayi hai
Hafte mein char din mere sir pe ake baitha rehta hai.

And he continue grumping about how he is fed up of his son in law who keeps hammering his head like a Hitler.

And keeps threatening him that he will complain to ridhu if he will not behave for his health and eating habbits.
