Ae mere dil Part…Oh my heart…Part 1
I dedicate this story to Viditian who requested me to write a story on Shaheer Tejasswi.This story is inspired by the Kannada movie Nannavalu Nannavalu which I have not seen .Thank you very much my dearest friend Palchin2995 for giving me this concept to write this story.As u wished I have included you in this story as Dr.Palchin.You suggested Jennifer Winget or YDHJK Aditi Sharma to play your character.I chose Jennifer Winget as Jennifer had played a doctor in DMG and it’s easy for me to get her pictures in the doctor’s attire.
Mishti came back home at late night.
Anand stared at her.
Anand:Why are you late?
Mishti:I was partying with my friends.
Anand:I told you to not to go for late night parties.You are spending money unnecessarily to give useless parties to your friends.Why can’t you obey me?
Mishti:Oh come on…why should I obey you?Just because I call you uncle you are not my uncle.Let me remind you that you were just my father’s manager who is just my caretaker now.
Anand got hurt.
Anand:I agree.I have no blood relationship with you.But your father treated me like his own brother.
Mishti said sarcastically:Yes…I know.You were his loyal servant.Oops…loyal manager.
Anand got hurt.But he ignored it.
Anand:Before death your father entrusted me to look after you.I kept my word.In fact I will do that till my death.So whether you consider me as your uncle or not I will do my duty.
Mishti:But don’t try to control me.Because I am the owner of this house.You are staying here because of my dad’s mercy.I am not your daughter to control me.Go control your daughter.
Anand’s wife Bela:Mishti….You are our daughter.
Mishti:Oh…I forgot.You both are a childless couple who has no children.But just because of that I won’t become your daughter.
Anand-Bela became upset.
Mishti:I think purposefully God did not give you a child.If you guys had a child with your boring lecture you guys would have killed her.
Mishti walked to her room.
Anand-Bela became upset.
Anand cried.
Anand:I failed Bela…I failed.I had promised Ishaan Sir that I will give a good upbringing to Mishti.But she has been thoroughly spoiled.Why Bela?Where did we go wrong?
Bela:Anandji…don’t cry.We gave her a lot of love.But unfortunately she considers us only as her servants.But we will do our duty.Let us hate us.But we will love her till eternity.
Anand:We have always considered Mishti as our only daughter.But we could not mould her character properly.She has turned into a spend thrift.We have to do something to control her.Otherwise unknowingly she will destroy herself.I am scared.
Bela:Nothing will happen to Mishti.We will not let it happen.
Anand:But what can we do?
Bela:I think Mishti should get married.She will change.
Anand:But how will she agree to get married?
Bela:We should tell her about the will.
Anand:Yes.We have to.
After a few days…
Mishti went near Anand.
Mishti:Uncle,I need money.
Anand:For what?
Mishti:You don’t need to know that.
Anand:I am your official guardian.I need to know that.
Mishti:No need.I have my own needs.
Anand:There was a time when I trusted you blindly.But you broke my trust and got into gambling and wasted money.I am sure that you had a bet with your friends and you are asking me money only for gambling.
Mishti:Even if it’s for gambling what is your problem?These are all my properties.I can do whatever I want with all this.
Anand:No.
She got angry.
Mishti:Who are you to say that?
Anand:This was said by your father. There is something which you don’t know.You are going to turn 22 in a month.According to your father’s will,if you don’t get married before 22,you won’t get a single penny.
Mishti was shocked:What?
Anand:Yes.After marriage,you need to get your husband’s signature to use your money.
Mishti was shocked:To use my own money I need my husband’s signature as an approval?How mean!
I can’t follow this.I can’t get married by sacrificing my freedom.
Anand:I am sorry beta.I can’t do anything about it.This is your father’s will.
Mishti walked off angrily.
Anand-Bela smirked.
Mishti met her friend Palchin who is a doctor.
Palchin hugged her:Hi Mishti…after a long time we met each other.
Mishti:What to do?You are always busy in your hospital Dr.Palchin.
Palchin:What to do Mishti?A doctor’s life is like that.
Mishti:Ya.I can understand.Since childhood whenever I had problem I have always shared it with you.The same way now when I am in a problem I am here to share it with you.I hope you have time to listen to my problem.
Palchin:Of course yes Mishti.Tell me what your problem is.
Mishti told her everything.Palchin was stunned.
Palchin:Oh no…
Mishti:But I can’t accept defeat that easily.I am Mishti.I will not let anyone defeat me.Only you can help me Palchin.
Palchin was surprised:Me?How can I help you?
Mishti:As you know I am not interested to be a marriage material.I can’t imagine leading a married life like a typical wife.But I have no other option than to get married to claim my property.So I have decided to marry a dying patient.
Palchin was stunned:What?Dying patient?
Mishti:Yes.If I marry a dying patient who has very less time to live he will die as soon as we get married.Before that I will get his signature and live my life as I want.For that I need your help.In your hospital among your patients there will be the victim of severe illness who have very less time to live.I mean is there anyone who has the high chance to die in a few months?Take me to them. I will marry one of them.
Palchin was shocked.
Palchin:What are you saying Mishti?Will any of them agree to get married in the last phase of life?
Mishti:I will try my best to convince him.You just make me meet those patients.
Palchin:Ok,I will.
Mishti smiled.
The next day Mishti went to the hospital with Palchin.Palchin showed some patients.
Palchin:They are all very serious patients.Any time they can leave this world.
Mishti looked at them.A young man who was talking to old people and a small kid cheerfully struck her eyes.
Mishti:That guy is also in his last stage?
Palchin:Yes.His name is Jeev.He is in the last stage of cancer.Poor guy is an orphan too.
Mishti:But he does’nt look sick.He looks handsome.
Palchin:Yes.He is very positive towards life.That reflects on his looks also.He is always cheerful.
Mishti:But it’s an advantage.My so called uncle will not doubt my intention if I marry Jeev.
Mishti walked towards Jeev.Palchin looked at them anxiously.
Mishti:Hi…I am Mishti….
Jeev:Hi…I am…
Mishti:You are Jeev.I know everything about you.
Jeev was surprised.
Mishti:I am Dr.Palchin’s friend.She had told me about you.Despite of your illness how you are living happily is an inspiration for all of us.I am impressed.So I wanted to meet you.
Jeev:Thank you.Dr.Palchin said this much about me to you?
Mishti:Yes.Shall we be friends?
Jeev:Friends?We just met now.How can we be friends so fast?
Mishti became dull.
She thought:Even though he has only a few more days left look at his head weight.
Mishti:For friendship do you need to think that much?I am an ordinary girl.Not a criminal or a witch.
Jeev smiled:I know.You are a nice girl.After all you are Dr.Palchin’s friend.
Mishti thought:For the first time somebody said that I am a nice girl.
Mishti:Then what is stopping you?Well…If you accept my friendship come to Dr.Palchin’s house the day after tomorrow.I will be waiting there for you.
Jeev was stunned:But why are you so desperate to be my friend?I am not a celebrity,but a dying patient.
Mishti:But you are special.Only you can be so positive minded in this stage also.So it’s nice to have a special friend like you.
With a smile she walked away.Jeev smiled.
Mishti was waiting for Jeev at Palchin’s house.
Mishti:Will Jeev come?You spoke to him.Right?
Palchin:Yes.I told him about you.Let’s see whether he will accept your friendship or not.
Mishti:Why is he taking so much of time to accept my friendship and wasting my precious time?
Suddenly the calling bell rang.
Mishti:Will this be Jeev?
