Part 122
They reached home for lunch.
Khushi with the help of Ram Prakash laid the table under Nani’s
supervision. Lavanya had retired to her
room so was ASR. Ram Prakash called
everyone.
“Hello..!” payal had called up Raizada’s landline. Mamiji had picked up.
“JI... HUM PAYAL BOL
RAHAIN HAIN? KYA.. KHU...!” The phone was disconnected and
Mami marched to her room.
“Khushi bitiya, have lunch with us!” Nani told her.
“No Naniji, I will serve and then have ...!” she smiled at
everyone. Sham was still missing.
“Anjali ji, Aap kay pati?” she looked at the empty
seat. “No! He has some urgent work..!”
Anjali pursed her lips sulkily. Arnav
looked away. Mami came with a grumpy
face.
“Phati Saadi.. take care of your saari... Kahi
Tumhaaray Naseeb Ki
Tarah Phir Say
Phat naa jaye..! Hello hi bye bye!” Mami said disdainfully. Khushi looked at her saree.
“Ka hain... ki Acche
Kapaday Pahan nay key liye Achha Naseeb
Bhi to Hona Chahiye..Hello hi bye bye!” Mami rhymed to
everybody’s annoyance.
“You don’t deserve these costly costumes..!” Mami went
ahead. Khushi inadvertently touched her
jewellery. Sadness shadowed her face for
a second and then next moment she said,
“Haan, Mami ji.. I will take care..! I know, my
clumsiness...!” she couldn’t complete.
“Pass that Kheer bowl..!” he barked cutting the conversation
off. Khushi hurriedly went to serve him
his sugar free Kheer!
“Khushi bitiya, Ram Prakash will take over.. you come and
have lunch now!” Nani said kindly.
“No.. Nani ji .. I will have later!” she said stealing a
glance at him.
“Aur Nahi toh
Kaa... She will have in the kitchen with Ram Prakash...!” Mami had
crossed the limit.
“Manorama..!” Nani reprimanded and Mami looked away with
disgust. Khushi went into the kitchen
not to come out till their lunch was over.
“Khushi bitiya..!” Nani was at the kitchen door and Khushi
turned her back to hide her tears.
“Chalo bitiya.. Khana Khao! Have your lunch..! I will serve
you today! HUM KHILAYENGE !” Nani held
her hand. She looked away sensing his
figure at the door.
“Umm.. Nani ji.. I mean.. Amma Babuji must be waiting for
me... Umm... there is still time ... umm... Can I go home for lunch?” she asked
in a small voice.
“Khushi bitiya..!” Nani held her hand. She smiled.
“Nani ji please? Its diwali and they all must be waiting for me!” she
said not looking at him. He came a step
forward to give way to his Di.
“Khushi..!” Anjali came in.
“Kitchen conference?” she asked smiling.
Khushi giggled.
“No Anjali ji.. I should be going home. Babuji must be waiting for me!” she said
trying to make her way out of the kitchen.
He had blocked her. She didn’t
look up.
“Khushi ji.. there is a call for you!” Aakash came into the
kitchen with the cordless. She looked
confused.
“Hello? Jiji... no! I forgot to charge it.... Haan, I am coming... !” she said disconnecting.
“Umm Nani ji please?”
she asked permission.
“Only on one condition...! You should be here by six in the
evening.. before the party starts!” Anjali said holding her hand out. She promised smiling broadly. Arnav opened his mouth to offer ...
“I will drop you, Khushi ji.. I am going that side..!”
Aakash was all excited. Arnav raised his
eyebrow so did Khushi smiling mischievously.
Aakash avoided their gaze.
“Chaliye Khushiji!” he said going out. Khushi followed. Arnav clenched his fists losing the
opportunity ...!
“Koi Jarurat Nahi
Jai ki.. Yahi Say Bye Bye kar leo!” Mami barked and Khushi
turned.
“Yes Aakash Sir. I
will manage!” she said walking past him before Mami could spit her venom. She was out on the road running out of the
gates of Raizada House. She hailed an
auto and hopped into it. She saw a white
SUV coming out of the gates and said.. “JARA
JALDI CHALIYE!”
She reached home to see Sham was waiting for her. She dashed to her room and before he could
say anything closed the door latching it from inside. He rubbed his palms frustrated. He had not seen her properly and what she was
wearing was not the one he bought for her.
Khushi came out after fifteen minutes to see Payal in the
kitchen reheating the food for Khushi.
“What? You all already had lunch? Without me? How mean!” she
screamed sulkily.
“No.. I am waiting for you, Khushi ji!” sham came forward
smiling. She smiled back. “Humm... AB
SHURU HO JAO
KHUSHI... AGALAA PADAV IN
KON BANEGAA MERAA
PATI...” She thought laying two plates for lunch.
Sham gaped at her.
She had comeback in her normal attire.
He sulked.
“Why did you change? You were wearing festive dress...!” he
started off cautiously. She narrowed her
eyes.
“Yeah! It was gifted by Raizadas... !” she said
concentrating on her food. “This one?
The red one?” he asked at once and Khushi looked up with a jerk.
“Why? I should not wear a red costume? “ she asked glaring
at him.
“No.. I mean... “ he had no justification. “Its not like that. You were looked stunning ..!” he said
lowering his voice. She sipped curry
noisily in response. He looked
away.
“Tell me Sham ji...!” Khushi started off to his
annoyance.
“Not now... !” he stopped her holding her hand. “Enjoy the food first!” he said slyly. Khushi withdrew her hand.. “You too!” she
said looking at his plate. He
concentrated on his plate and they had food quietly.
“Ok. I should take a
nap now...! A Power nap of say.... umm.... four hours?” she looked at the
clock. It was noon. Sham gaped at her. She cleared the table in no time and turned
to go to her room. He held her
hand. “Wait Khushi!” he said
authoritatively. Khushi glanced at his
grip on her wrist. She tried to jerk it
free in vain.
“Sham ji.. HAMAARAA
HAATH CHODIYE!” she said little
loudly. “CHODANAY KAY
LIYE NAHI PAKADAA
HAIN...!” he said sweetly coming nearer.
“Skip your power nap Khushi ji.
Let us go out for some time...!” he said still holding her hand. She looked at Buwaji. She was nodding happily. Khushi had no option. “Ok..!”
she said. “I will go, get ready!”
She was out with him.
He hailed an auto. “Let us go to
the Mandir!” she said. He looked at her
disappointed.
“I want to take you somewhere else...!” he said holding her
hand. She withdrew. But his grip tightened. She could sense aggression. She was uneasy. There was no point resisting... She had to
tackle him somehow. She felt
helpless. Disgust ran through her spine
and she winced.
“Sham ji?” she said sweetly, not showing her fright. His palm was sweaty... she felt filth.
“Khushi..!” he looked at her passionately. She shuddered. “Umm yeah... but we will go to the temple
first and then may be wherever you take me..?” she said looking at him trying
to withdraw her hand. He was happy. He smiled broadly. “Yeah.. that will be great!” he said gripping
her hand. She looked at his grip.
“Sham ji... !” she said in a sweet voice.. “You said you are
an orphan...! Where are you from?” she asked.
Sham glared at her.
“No Questions..!” he said sternly. She glared back at him.
“You don’t want to talk about it? I can understand!” she
said considerately. He looked away
smirking. “You are under my control!”
his smirk grew.
“ARAY.... RUKO
RUKO BHAIYYA ! MANDIR
AAGAYA...!” she stopped the auto.
He had to leave her hand. She got
down and without even looking back started walking briskly towards the
Mandir. He stopped to remove his shoes
and she had reached inside the Mandir.
He frowned. His phone rang and he
switched it off immediately. She was
inside praying hard. “Raksha Karana!
Protect me... I... Don’t want to go with him... Please... listen to my prayer
devi mayya... do something..!” she could sense his presence by her side and she
shrunk. Her Devi Mayya was smiling at
her. She looked up at her smiling face
and frowned.
“AAP KO MAZA AA
RAHAA HAIN NAA?” she asked. “Yes!” came an answer from Sham. She shuddered. “CHUP HO JAA KHUSHI... !” she warned her self
shutting her mouth up. She looked at the
idol and spoke to her Devi Mayya with her eyes.
“If you protect me from this trouble today... i will come to
your Mandir bare foot!” she prayed and looked at her Devi Mayya.
“No? Not good? Ok. Umm...
I will make laddus and bring it here for your bhog!” she licked her lips. A flower fell down from Devi Mayya’s shoulder
and Khushi jumped in excitement!
“Laddus? Done!” she said loudly. “What?” asked Sham turning to leave. Pandit ji was all set to close the Mandir for
afternoon nap of Devi Mayya. Khushi
turned sulkily.
“You want Laddus... but don’t want to help me!” she rolled
her eyes angrily. She was thinking hard
for escaping from that place. She saw a
tall figure with spectacles...
“Aakash sir?” she blurted and called out loudly... “Aakash
Sir?” she started descending the stairs hurriedly.
“Khushi..!” Sham held her hand. “I saw our Aakash Sir..! Just wanted to wish
him happy Diwali!” Khushi wrenched free her hand.
“No!” He pulled her back looking around. She looked up at him surprised. The tall figure had moved away. “He is not Aakash!” said Sham and Khushi
froze.
“How do you know?” she asked narrowing her eyes. He fumbled.
“Umm.. I mean... I have seen his photo in the papers!” he had a
readymade answer. She looked at
him. Pandit ji had closed the
sanctum. She turned with him sulkily. He bent down to wear his shoes and
“Anjali ji!” Khushi called out loudly. Sham turned his face in the direction and the
next moment sat down hiding his face.
Khushi descended with excitement forgetting that sham was with her and
called out.
“Anjali ji!” Anjali turned and saw Khushi running towards
her. “Aray Khushi..!” she smiled broadly
at her and Khushi held her hand completely relieved. She saw Mami’s figure behind but it didn’t
matter. She was ready to take any insult
now. Devi Mayya had helped her. Laddus were due.
“Hello hi bye bye... Phati Sadi... Chappal churanay
aai ho kya?” she asked disdainfully. Payal’s call still ringing in her head, she
blew her head off when she saw phati sadi.
“Nahi... Dil Churanay
Aai Hain.. Khushi!” Anjali said holding
Khushi’s hand. Khushi smiled ear to
ear. She was saved.
“What are you doing here?” came a rude question and Khushi
further felt relieved. “Humm..!” she
turned around to face him grinning.
“Dil Churanay Aai
Thi!” she said loudly. He raised
his eyebrow. “Devi Mayya Kaa!” she said
and Anjali giggled. “Tum Kisee
Kaa Bhi Dil
Chura Sakati Ho, Khushi! You are so sweet!” Anjali cupped
her face. Khushi blushed. He looked away.
“Akelay Kay Kar
Rahi Ho?” came another rude
question and Khushi looked around for Shamji.
“Akelay? Nahi... Sham ji
Thay Hamaray saath!” She searched for sham. He had vanished from the scene. “Sham ji?” Anjali asked surprised. “Oh! Woh.. your family friend...! Kay baat
Hain Khushi?” Anjali
giggled. Khushi felt embarrassed. Arnav looked at her suspiciously. “What was she doing with that Sham alone?” he
thought angrily.
“Nahi.. woh... Buwaji sent me with him..!” she said
sheepishly trying to avoide his gaze.
“Hain Kahan Woh? Where is he?” Anjali asked. Khushi looked around. “Gayab?” she thought feeling relieved. “Kuch toh gadbad hain Khushi..! Sham ji has disappeared again!” Khushi grew
suspicious. But she had to answer. This was not coincidence.
“Umm.. Anjali ji.. he went away. We had to talk to Pandit ji and then he went
away for some work and I am going home now!” she said avoiding to look at his
grumpy face. Anjali saw Pandit ji
descending and called out.
“Pandit ji... “ He stopped.
She went ahead to talk to him.
“Aray, Haan...!” Pandit ji gave her Thali. “Sham
Kaa Bhog Bhej Denge!” she said and Pandit ji Nodded.
“Mandir is closed..!” Khushi said in a small voice. “Haan... we came half an hour back... ! Nani
Ko Kundali Banaani
Thi!” Anjali said smiling. Khushi
stole a glance at Arnav and he looked away.
“Aakash, Chote and Lavanya ki!” Anjali informed. Khushi’s heart ached for no reason.
