REVISIT TOWARDS LOVE : ARYAN AND IMLIE SS [ PART -2]

Imlie : Why all the members of this house are behaving so weird ?  I have to find why he has closed the door.

Imlie started knocking the door. Aryan Sir, Aryan Sir ,open the door.

Aryan closed his eyes and ears , he recalled a day of his childhood when he was at the age of 12 .

Aryan : Chaachu has arrived with some one,  Maa.

Sulakshana : Raghav, Zerina what you both have did ? The whole villagers will now destroy you both.

Zerina : Bhabhi, There was no way left for us rather than doing this register marriage. My family will never accept Raghav as he belongs to Hinduism and I am a Muslim. I can’t see Raghav in pain any more, my brothers beated him brutally Bhabhi.

Sulakshana : Better don’t talk about that Zerina, already they brutally beated and killed my husband before the public, just because he stood for his brother and his love.

Zerina : My brothers knows the language of weapons only, Bhabhi. I am really sorry for whatever happened with bhaiya.

Raghav : Bhabhi, she is my wife now. I can’t wander in streets with her like these .

Sulakshana : You both get inside soon . If villagers will see you together they will burn you both in fire lively. Moroever we have lost our home. Now we are living in my friend Renuka and her husband Jagdish’s favor  only. I don’t want anything should trouble them.

Raghav and Zerina gets inside

Sulakshana :Beta come inside

Aryan :No Maa, I want to play

Sulakshana : Aryan do what I say.

Aryan ; Maa, Renuka aunty will be arriving with her daughter. I want to see her and play with her.

Sulakshana : Beta woh sab baad mein dekhenge. Chal andar

Aryan gets in and looks his Chaacha and Zerina

Raghav : Aryan, she is your Chaachi.  Say hello to her.

Aryan stared her in anger , all he was remembered about that day when he saw his father blood stained at the road only. He remembered that day when few people of the village  were throwing stones and doing so much of attrocities.

” Your boy is a sin. He seized our community’s girl. ”

” Your girl is characterless , she brainwashed our community’s boy and eloped with him . ”

Raghav : For god sake stop this riot of communities. We both loved from hearts , we didn’t find any difference in Lord Ram and in Lord Allah.

Zerina : Please don’t beat us like these cruelly.

One of the group  floatted kerosine at the nearby homes and started firing it. Raghav and Zerina were much shocked with this.

” Zerina, if you won’t come with us , we will fire you and Raghav also. ”

Zerina : Bhaijaan what are you doing ? I am your sister and how can you do this to your sister and her lover ?

” Zerina then be ready to bear the consequence , he took a knife to stab Raghav. But suddenly some one stopped him by holding his hand. It was none other than Deepak.

” Captain Deepak, We have immense respect for you, but your bhai is not right. ”

Deepak : They both are above 18 and they are matured enough to take decision regarding their life. If any one will try to do harm to my bhai and his wife I will not leave them.

” Deepak, don’t forget that now you are not a captain. Due to your blidness the army has disqualified you.”

Deepak : The strength at my hands haven’t gone yet. Aaja dekh leta hoon. Zerina, Raghav run away , run fast. Raghav marry her and make her as your wife. I will deal with these mad people.

Deepak tooks his gun and fired it over the upwards sky .

Raghav and Zerina started running from there.  Deepak had a fight with them. Even after vision impaired Deepak fought bravely. But  one of Zerina’s brother  stabbed him from front and grabbed his neck.

Other two brothers pierced knife to his chest brutally . Meanwhile Sulakshana, Aryan, Jagdish who were at the crowd came forward.

Sulakshana screamed : Deepak

“Those who breaks the boundaries of communities and religion should need to bear this. They hanged him before the public.

Seeing all them with deadly weapons Sulakshana , Jagdish,Aryan were shocked. They stabbed again and Deepak eventually fall into death.

One of Zerina’s brother took Aryan cruelly in his hand, Sulakshana was extremely scared.

Aryan : Please leave me uncle. please

Sulakshana : Mere bete ko chod do .

” You are deepak’s wife naa ? If you need your son’s life then go from here , go away . He terribly looked Aryan

” Never fall in love with a girl especially who is out of your community and religion . If you did it , you will also be hanged like your father.”

He laughed cruelly and left Aryan. Aryan rushed and hugged his mother.

Jagdish : Sister we need to go.

Sulakshana ; But what about my husband ? I can’t leave him like these

“Aye , tujhe apne bete kee jaan chahiye kee nahi ? ”

In fear three of them leaves.

Zerina : Hello beta.

Aryan : I don’t want to talk with you. Because of you they killed my Paapa. You are not my Chaachi

Aryan ran from there and hugged Sulakshana .

Sulakshana : Beta don’t say like these.

Aryan : We lost our home, our village everything.

Sulakshana : Yeh kya bole jaa rahe ho Aryan ? Who told you all these ?

Raghav : Bhabhi he is right. We won’t trouble you anymore. Because of us you left that village and came to this near by village. Renuka didi is your close friend and Deepak bhaiya was a friend of her husband Jagdish bhai . They give you this rented house out of the border so that no one can find you. But we came to disturb you, sorry bhabhi. If I was alone I wouldn’t have troubled you, but Zerina is also with me.

Sulakshana : You are my devar Raghav. How can I leave you both in this difficult situation ?

Meanwhile some one knocked the door .

Sulakshana : Let me see

Sulakshana slightly opened the window and sees it was Renuka only.She feels relief at her heart and she opened the door.

Renuka : Why you opened the door late ? Raghav and Zerina here ?

Raghav : Didi sorry, but there was no way for us. So we came here.

Renuka ; God!! Already these two neighbouring villages have communal and so many reasons for riot. Now you both came here . I came to warn Sulakshana as I heard that your villagers have landed here. They can find you both anytime. Jagdish Ji has booked tickets , you both should go to Delhi. There no one will find you.

Sulakshana handover those tickets to Raghav and Zerina.

Raghav : Bhabhi

Sulakshana : If we stay together then no one will be alive. Go Raghav.

Zerina : But bhabhi

Sulakshana : Go as soon as possible. When these two villages will stop shedding blood only that day we can return our home land. Till then we have to be far from them.

Raghav and Zerina hugged Sulakshana and goes away

Renuka : Yeh kya kar diya Tum ne ?

Sulakshana : Iam Captain Deepak’s wife. The one who saved lives of lakhs of people and I was unfortunate to do the final rites of his demise , but if I didn’t handover these tickets to them I am sure his soul will ask me what I have done ?

Renuka : You are really great , Sulakshana. I have bought food for you.

Sulakshana ; How is your daughter Imlie ?

Renuka : She is good, she is excited for seeing you both. Actually Jagdish ji has taken her to shop for buying toys for her.

Aryan : I have prepared this greeting card for her. Tomorrow is her birthday naa.

Renuka : This is so cute like you beta. Thanks a lot. Sulakshana sambhalke rehna, the threat hasn’t gone.

After some time when Sulakshana and Aryan was taking food, they hear some sounds. Sulakshana opened the door and sees the whole streets were burning in fire. She took her bags and Aryan from there as she understood that the riot hasn’t over. She started running and at a point she stopped when a taxi stopped before her.

Jagdish : Take this money and sit at that taxi , Sulakshana. He will drop you in Mumbai.

Sulakshana : What ?

Jagdish : I have made all arrangements there. You will get a rented house there , my sister is staying there only with her husband.

Sulakshana looks Imlie who was sleeping on Jagdish’s shoulder.

Sulakshana : Mere aur Aryan kee taraf se Imlie ko wish karna bhai saab.

Jagdish : Sulakshana time is less, go away with Aryan.

Aryan took his blessings. Jagdish’s eyes went teary. He waved his hand when the car was moving. Through the glass Aryan looked lastly at the village and also sleeping little girl Imlie’s face.

PRESENT TIME

Imlie : Aryan Sir, how long you will lock the door like these ?

Aryan opened the door and looked Imlie.

Imlie ; Why I felt that you was crying there ?

Aryan : Nothing like that. Some thing stucked at my eyes. I am sorry

Imlie : It’s alright. I never felt that for these silly thing you will lock door and cry like a kid ? You felt bit irritation and mixed dishwash , it’s not a big deal as you breaked the glass. So just be chill.

Aryan : Actually I rememebered your Maa.

Imlie : You knows her ? Have you seen her ?

Aryan : Yeah. In fact I have eaten the rumali rotis made by her.

Imlie : But I haven’t seen you in Pagdandiya and nearest village Barely. Then how ?

Aryan : My Maa was there once , but left that place. At that time only I ate your Maa’s food.

Imlie : Why you left the village ? For becoming actor ?

Aryan : Please a request to you. In between stop these question sessions and stay calm. You are my guest, so you get enough time for taking my interview.

Imlie : But Aryan Sir

Aryan : Please ……Just two minutes…..Please be silent.

Imlie nodded her head. Imlie was looking her watch again and again .

Aryan felt strange .

Aryan : Kahin jaana hein ? Why are you looking watch like these ?

Imlie was showing signs of being silent .

Aryan : Kuch bologi bhi ?

Right after that her watch’s beep sound was heard.

Imlie : Two minutes are over , now I can talk , am I ? If yes then please shook your hand and smile please.

Aryan watched Imlie’s bright eyes and though he felt to smile whole heartedly he hidden it inside his heart and shook his hand with her hand formally.

Aryan shook his hand with Imlie.

Aryan : Okay . But not as a chatter box .

Imlie : I will try Super star Aryan Sir.

Aryan : Aryan is enough, no need of addressing me as Sir.

Imlie : Okay, done. By the way I don’t mind if you smiled looking at me , I will turn my face so that you can smile from heart.

Imlie slightly turned her face backwards, Aryan smiled gently

He recalled the childhood moment when he saw her sleeping at her dad’s shoulder.

Meanwhile Sulakshana came back to home.

Imlie : Lo Maa has came , let me talk with her.

Sulakshana gives prasad to Aryan and Imlie.

Sulakshana : How is Renuka, Imlie ?

Imlie : She is good, Just now your son told that he likes my Maa’s food very much.

Sulakshana looked Aryan with a shock.

Sulakshana : Did he said anything else ?

Imlie : Nothing , he said years back he came to my village with you and he had eaten food.

Sulakshana : Oh, that was actually when we arrived there for rendering prayers at a temple. After that we never came there.

Imlie : Seems you both like city more than village, hey naa ?

Aryan : Yeah, we like this city.

Imlie ; You know what Gaon kee mitti mein woh khusboo hein joh sehar ke makanon mein nahi.

Aryan ; Joh bhi ho, rehna toh humein yahin.

Sulakshana looked Aryan emotionally.

Sulakshana : Imile you might be feeling hungry . Go and change your clothes. Then we all can have delicious foods.

Imlie : Maa, I want ginger tea, Please bana do naa.

Sulakshana : Sure Imlie.

As Imlie walks Sulakshana holds Aryan’s hand

Aryan : Don’t worry, I haven’t said her anything about the past.

Sulakshana ; Beta , Mayuri and Akbar are coming tomorrow.

Aryan ; Mere bhai aur behan , I am so excited.

Sulakshana : Beta Zerina and Raghav will also come.

Aryan : Just call them and say only their children can come here , not them.

Sulakshana : Aryan !!

Aryan : I lost my Paapa because of them , I haven’t forget anything, Maa.

Aryan walks in anger.
