Sid has left the room. He was sitting on the terrace. He had to go to meet some people, but was not in mood now. Is this agony ever going to end. Or will they have to live with it all their lives. Pari came to him.
Pari: Kya kar rahi hai vo.
Sid: Hai room me.
Pari: Baat karni hai usse mujhe.
Sid: Rehne de Pari. Zyada stress mat de usse.
Pari: In fact aap bhi kuch kam nhi ho. Pyaar karte ho na usse, to ek baar aur chale jaate manane. Thoda kuch aur bol deti. Sun lete. Pichle pandra dino se vo akeli hai. Jab usse pata chala hoga ke vo pregnant hai to kaisi feel kiya hoga usne. Soocha hai aapne.
Sid: To call karti na mujhe.
Pari: Kyu call karti vo aapko?? Har baar, vo aayi hai aapke pass. Aap kab gaye uske pass??
Sid: Kyu nhi gaya?? Mohali gaya tha na manane??
Pari: Ha gaye the. Aur usne aap ko thoda kuch bol diya aur aap apne ego pe lekar wapas chale aaye. Aaj fir wapas vohi aayi.
Sid: Vo khud ke ya mere leye nhi bacche ke leye aayi.
Pari: Ha sahi to hai. Aap ko kaha zarurat hai uski?? Hoti to pehle bhi jaate aur ab bhi. Bhai galti aap dono ke hai. To aap yeh to socho he mat ke meri side sahi hai.
Pari walked away to Sid's room. She opened the room and saw Sana lying on the sofa.
Pari: Uth vaha bed par lat.
Sana : Nahi rehne de.
Sana looked at the bed to see the bed made and blanket folded properly. Sid must have done it when she had fallen asleep. Pari came forward and took her by her arm. She seemed furious, so Sana did not argue and went and sat on the bed. Pari sat next to her.
Pari: Pillow ko teeka laga kar bait.
Sana followed her instructions. Pari was in a dangerous mood. It's better not to argue with her.
Pari: Yeh aise halat me akele mohali se yaha aane me konsi samajhdaari the??
Sana: Mujhe kisiko taklif nhi deni the.
Pari: Fir to Sana baat he khatam hai na. Mera tere ko kuch bhi bolne ka koi fayda nhi. Agar Tu hame apna he nhi samjhti to hum zabardasti ka haq kyu jatayi. Chal Tu aaraam kar mai chalti hu.
Pari was about to get up when Sana held her arm and stopped her.
Sana: Pari Tu aise kyu bol rahi hai Yaar. Tu to meri apni hai.
Pari: Ha isleye itne dino se ek call nhi uthaya tune mera. Pata hai mai kitni apni hu.
Sana: Pari ab isse mai kya kahu tujhe. Jaane de.
Pari: Sana galti sirf bhai ke the?? Aur kya sach me vo galti the??
Sana: Nahi Papa ke bhi galti the. Maine aaj tak unse baat nhi ki hai.
Pari: Nahi yaha tu galat samaj rahi hai. Galti dono ke bhi nhi the. Sana yeh jab uncle ne promise leya tha tab tu sirf sola saal ke bacchi the. Uncle apni bacchi ko usse itni bade aadmi ke taraf attract hote dekh dar gaye. Unhe laga yeh infatuation hai. Yaha uncle kaisi galat hue yeh tu mujhe bata. Aur rahi baat bhai he. Bhai us waqt tuj se pyaar karne lage. Aur fir jab uncle ne unhe realise karvaya unhe bhi laga ke tujhe itni choti age me khud se baandhe rakhna sahi nhi hai. Tere leye aur bhi options ho sakte the, jo tu agar bhai se judi rehti to nhi dekh pati. Yeh alag baat hai ke tuje fir bhi bhai ke alava koi dekha he nhi. Ab yeh to kisiko bhi nhi pata tha na.
Sana: Kya maine mange the vo options. Bol?? Mujhe to uske alawa koi nazar he nhi aata tha.
Pari: Par Sana Tu bahot choti the tab. Bacchi the tu. Samaj na sweetheart.
Sana: Chalo mana us waqt mai choti the, par fir kuch saalo me to aakar dekhta ke mai kaisi hu. Kya kar rahi hu. Aur jab maine usse apna hone ke leye kaha, tab to yeh promise yaad nhi aaya usse.
Pari: Sana yeh galat baat hai. Kya bhai ne tuje rokne ke koshish nhi ki us waqt?? Kya unhone us cheez ke leye mana nhi kiya?? Par jab tune zidd ke to vo thoda khud ke leye selfish ho gaya. Kyuki unhe bhi tu chahiye the.
Sana: Fir kyu choda Pari?? Jab sab thek ho gaya tha to kyu choda??
Pari: Sana tu Aahaan ke sath enjoy karne lagi the. Vo tere age ka tha. Usse teri dosti ko dekh bhai ko laga tu usse attract ho rahi hai.
Sana: Pari banda puchta hai. Baat karta hai. Par vo direct decision le leta hai. Aur kisni haq diya usse mere leye decision lene ka??
Pari: Unke tere leye pyaar ne.
Sana: Haha pyaar. Koi pyaar vyaar nhi hai usse. Agar hota to itni din mujhe akela mohali me rehne nhi deta. Jo Tu yeh haq ke baat kar rahi hai na, uss haq se mujhe hath pakad ke le aata. Nahi maaf karungi mai usse Pari. Hamesha mai jaati hu uske pass. Is baar nhi jaaungi. Na aana chahe na sahi. Mai thek hu. Apne bacche ke sath zindagi jee lungi. Rehne de usse mujse dur ab. Aaj bhi to mai he aayi na?? Par uske leye nhi aayi. Ek call nhi kiya usne mujhe. Mai naaraz the usse. Bol diya bura bhala. Chod aaya mujhe vaha.
Pari: Sana Tu ro kyu rahi hai itna. Chal chup ho jaa. Bhai isliye aaye kyuki vo tere baato se hurt hue na baby.
Sana: Fir rahe hurt. Usse sirf hurt hota hai??mujhe nhi hota??
Pari: Tum dono mummy papa banne wale ho. Enjoy karo is waqt ko. Ek dusre ke sath. Bhai tujhse bahot pyaar karta hai. Sana humne uski tadap dekhi hai tere leye. Agar Tu pain se guzari hai to vo bhi uthne he pain me the pechle nau saal se. Samaj thoda sa.
Sana: Nahi ab mera ho gaya. Mai nhi jaaungi uske pass. Mai nhi.
She started crying. Her body was shivering. Pari collected Sana in her arms. Sid was standing outside the room. He had come to collect his wallet and stopped when he heard Pari and Sana talking. He had tears in his eyes, when he heard so much of pain in Sana's voice. He had made mistakes too. He had always pushed her away. And she had still come to him. He thought it was for her good, but he didn't realiz even he was giving so much of agony to her in the process. And leaving her alone in mohali was his mistake too. Agreed she had said words, which she shouldn't have. But whatever the reason he shouldn't have left. He should have fought with her, but leaving her was not the right decision.
Sana has slept all afternoon. All the discussion and crying had exhausted her. All said and done she was at fault too, to some extent. She was not thinking about his sufferings. He too must have suffered for her for those nine years. Falling for a girl so much younger to him, he must have fought so many battles within himself. He must have gone through so much, when he had to push her away, because her dad has requested him too. He had send her away so that she could explore the world and nothing not even his love could hold her back. He had always treated her with care and love. She will give him that. But he shouldn't have left her alone in mohali. She is very upset about it. She will not talk to him. Or go to him. He must be hurt by her words, but she too is upset by his actions.
It's five when Sid returns from his meeting. His mind was not into it today. All the discussion between Pari and Sana were still ringing in his ears. He came home to find chachi coming out of the kitchen.
Sid: Chachi Pari kaha hai??
Reet: Vo to uske ghar chali gayi. Sana aayi hai pata chala to vo bhagi chali aayi the.
Sid: Chachi kuch dino ke leye Pari ko yaha bula lo na rehne ke leye. Sana ko company ho jaayegi.
Reet: Siddharth jab tu hai, to Sana ko koi aur company ke zarurat nhi honi chahiye beta. Tere aur Sana ke beech sab kuch thek kar de. Aise halat me uska aise stress me rehna thek nhi hai. Mujhe to hairani hai ke vo mohali se akele aayi. Jaise uska koi hai he nhi. Fir hum itne logo ka kya fayda beta.
Sid: Vo akeli isliye aayi kyuki usse mujse koi favor nhi chahiye tha. Aap tension mat lo chachi. Mai thek kar lunga sab.
Reet: Usne dophar me lunch nhi kiya hai. Dekh vo kuch khaana chahe to. Mujhe bata. Mai banva deti hu.
Sid entered the room, to find Sana pacing the floor. She looked as if she was not feeling well.
Sid: Kya hua??
She did not reply.
Sid: Sana Mai kuch puch raha hu. Tu thek hai?? Tuje kuch ho raha hai kya??
Sana: Mujhe acidity ho rahi hai. Bahot uneasy feel ho raha hai.
Sid: Kuch khayegi nhi to yahi hoga. Tere leye kuch laau.
Hearing of food nausena hit her hard and she ran to the bathroom, she bend over the commode and threw up. She threw until her stomach was empty. Sid had entered the bathroom and sat behind her, stroking her back and holding her hair. She got up and rinsed her mouth and washed her face. She was exhausted and was finding hard to walk. Sid came forward and picked her in his arms. She looked at him with surprise in her eyes. He did not look at her. He came out and lay her on the bed. She too was not looking at him now. Sid took a glass of water from the table near by and gave it to Sana. She took a few sips and gave the glass back.
Sid: Tujhe kuch peene ke leye lau?? Fresh fruit juice piyegi??
Sana nodded. He walked out to tell chachi to make juice for Sana. As he climbed down a thought struck him. How many times she must have been in this kind of situation in Mohali. She had no one for her there. To take care of her. She was all alone. It was he who should have been there. She was carrying his baby and she was left alone to tend for herself in this situation by him. He may be right in many things. But he was totally wrong in leaving Sana alone that day. No matter what.
