It was nearly 8:30 in evening and we can see swara and khelan sitting on the chairs in front of the famous pav bhaji stall….
Khelan : umm… yummy yaar shonu… (licking his fingers) is pav bhaji ke liye to me kuch bhi chod hu..
Swara : (giggling at his childishness) he he Khelu Tu ye dialogue saalo se keh raha hai…
Khelan : (pouting) to kya hua yaar.. hum bhi to bache the tab se inki pav bhaji khaate he.. ha pehle Kolkata me khaate the ab Mumbai me hai.. fark nai padta…
While swara becomes sad hearing the name of Kolkata….
While khelan looks at her sad face and widens his eyes at his mistake and hits his forehead slightly…
Khelan : waise shonu.. Puri duniya me itne saare handsome ladke hai.. aur tujhe us Bandar se kaise pyaar ho gaya yaar…
He said while making faces…
While swara just have him a small sad chuckle…
Khelan : achaa achaa ab samajh me aaya Tu vo kahavat (saying) sahi karna chahti hogi Na ‘pyaar andha hota hai’ (love is blind ‘..
He said a way to dramatically which made swara laugh….
While khelu smiled at his successful attempt….
Finally he was able to made her laugh a little although, but she laughed Na….
And so he too smiled whole
heartedly..
And soon after sometime both of them went to their respective apartments as it was already late…
Once coming inside her apartment she straightly went to her room and changed her clothes into her comfortable pyjamas and tee..
And let her hair flow down freely…
She went into the balcony and sat there enjoying the flow of slow-cool winds….
She just smiled feeling it….
Just then her mobile rang mahjong her to come out from her thoughts…
She picked up her phone to see her mother calling….
‘maa’s call after so many days… maybe she was missing me so called me.. but she didn’t call me much since the time am here.. (worried) is she in some sort of problem.. I hope everything’s fine there.. let me pick up the call first’
Thinking this she picked up the call…
And her maa’s happy voice reached her ears making her feel relaxed…
Shomi: shona….
Swara: hi maa.. how are you??
She asked smilingly…
Shomi: I am really happy beta.. but am missing you so much…
While a lone tear fell out of swara’s eyes.. was she really missing her??
Swara : (almost in a whisper) me too ma..
Shomi : achaa shona listen, after 10 days it’s Laksh and ragini’s 6 month anniversary.. and we and the maheshwari’s have decided to celebrate it in a grand way… so you have to come to Kolkata for that.. and ha I don’t want any excuses from your side.. it will be a really special moment for ragini and she will need her sister by her side… (hopefully) so you will come Na shona??
While swara’s eyes widened at her mother’s words…
Her mother wants her to attend the anniversary party of her sister and her husband who was supposed to be her husband.. whom she had loved once upon a time or maybe she still loved him…
Her eyes watered hearing this… how the hell in this world she would see then together…
Holding each other’s hands, smiling looking into the each other’s eyes, celebrating together…
Swara : (shivering voice) ma, actually someone is calling me and it’s urgent, I will call you back tomorrow okay…
And she cut the call hurriedly.. her whole body began to shiver…
Tears began to flow freely from her eyes…
Why the hell was it so difficult to forget him.. why??
Everyday, every single day she tried to not remember him once too… but no, her heart clearly didn’t want to listen to her….
She began crying falling down on her knees and buried her head in the nearby couch…..
Next day morning….
Swara woke up from the same position as she had slept while crying…
She was suffering from a really bad headache, her eyes were red and her nose was blocked due to continuous crying….
She held her head tightly in her hands…
This wasn’t right… she was crying over something that was clearly not hers…
She had to forget him, she wanted to move on but how???
And then she realised…
It’s not necessary to always fight against your life your pain alone…
You are never ALONE…. there’s always someone who cares for you and is ready to share your pain…
And for that person was her best friend, her khelu…
She smiled thinking about him…
And then immediately decided to go to college and talk to him…
College:
It wasn’t tough for khelan to see through her best friends determined face and get to know about the turmoils, the confusion and the pain building inside her….
But he knew that it was ENOUGH now…
It has been 6 months of his marriage, it had been 6 months of her running away from everything, from her loved ones who he didn’t think did care about her….
Khelu : (with a grin and determined face) shonu… I think you should go to Kolkata….
While her eyes again turned tray hearing him…
Khelu : (strictly) rona mat, bilkul bhi nahi.. iss baar me tere aasu dekhke nahi pighal ne Waala… look I know it will pain you, it will hurt you.. but till when… things only hurt you to the time you don’t face them, you don’t accept them.. once you accept them they turn powerless.. and to accept this that he will never return to your life you have to go to Kolkata.. once you face it, once you see him happy WITHOUT YOU (while her eyes eyes again turned teary hearing this) you will see that you don’t matter to them anymore, even they won’t matter to you anymore… you will learn to move on…
Khelu : and who said to you that you are going alone.. you think that am going to risk you going to that place alone.. no way.. am coming with you Na.. you don’t have to worry about anything.. an with you in each n every step… (teasingly) until n units you find someone to take care of you in place of me someday…
Swara : (childishly) no.. tujhe to tab bhi mere saath rehna hi padega…
Khelu : (tauntingly) ha ha mujhe to saari zindagi kuwara hi rahena he..
While swara smiled a teary yet genuine smile hearing him…
Swara : tujhe pata hai… Tu iss duniya la saabbssseeeeee achaa best friend hai…
Khelu : (smiling fully and raising his collar) ha ha so to mein hu…
While swara raised her brows greasing his self praise…
Khelu : (teasingly) and who knows if you find some hot and handsome guy there you may forget that monkey….
While swara gave him an unbelievable look…
And smiled determinedly saying :
I am coming back Kolkata….
Precap : sanskaar’s meet with that girl and swara and khelu coming to Kolkata…
