MERE HAATH MEIN TERA HAATH HO
He was walking all alone in the darkness. He was lost. Lost in the darkness of life. The situations had closed upon him like catacombs, pushing him in the darkest cramped holes of life. For the world he was so happy and lucky. He had all the luxuries that a common man could not even dream of. He was born with a platinum spoon. He was the only child of the great business tycoon Kailashnath Kapoor. The only heir to the wide spread Kapoor industries.
He was good in business and was successful in expanding it twice as large as his father had done it. Success did not fascinate him. He wanted a normal lifestyle, a happy family and a small world. Destiny was never in his favor. His family life was ruined. He had an unfaithful father whom he hated from the bottom of his heart, a mother who never spoke for what is wrong or right and no siblings. He was left all alone when he needed someone by his side. His father would force drag his mother to the parties whenever she wanted to stay back for her son. He soon found a suitable partner. He thought that she would be his life but as realization dawned upon him, he came to know that she was cheating on him and was with him only for money. He felt deceived. He stopped trusting people around him. He became a machine which knew only work. He had lost all his hopes. He was alive for the soul reason of his mother. He wanted to leave everything and die but his mother’s innocent face would come in his mind. He could not leave his mother alone in that hell.
Today there were no restrictions. His mother had died recently in an accident. The slightest ray of hope that was peeping through a hole in the dark room was also covered. He was now in total darkness. He was brave enough to stay in the darkness for five hours. He performed the last rights of his mother and now he wanted to end his life also. He was moving to the end of the bridge. It was a high bridge with water beneath. He stood leaning against the railing and just as he was about to step further, he was pulled back. He heard a sweet voice calling him. He opened his eyes to see a beautiful face scolding him.
V: oh hello Mr. What do you think you were doing? Do you know how much pain a mother goes through before bringing a new life on this planet? You were going to finish yourself? At least think about your mother!
The man stood there staring at her. It was the first time that someone was scolding him. His mother had never talked to him with a notch higher than a whisper. He collapsed in front of her due to the heavy intake of alcohol. The girl held his hand as they went down together. She tried to revive him from the unconscious state but her efforts went in vain. The girl took him to the hospital and admitted him. She now could recognize him. He was the famous industrialist Mr.Kabir Kapoor. She filled the form and in the column of relation wrote ‘friend’ so that they would start the treatment early. Her friends were an intern in that hospital and she was a professor. Her friends, Isha and Pragya, were puzzled to see her here and they rushed to her at once.
I: Sanchi what are you doing here?
P: Your working hours are over na?
S: I was going home when I saw that a man was trying to commit suicide. I stopped him and he fell unconscious so I brought him here. Just check na if he is okay?
Isha and Pragya went inside the room and were shocked to see the face of the person. The great business tycoon and the most eligible bachelor- Kabir Kapoor. The case was shifted to an experienced doctor. He soon started treating him. Kailashnath Kapoor soon arrived. He was not at all tensed but his face showed disgust as something unwanted had happened. Sanchi had called him from Kabir’s phone to inform about his condition. They stood outside the ICU in utmost silence. The doctor came out and said that he was okay and they could take him home. Sanchi breathed in relief as she was praying for him to get well soon. She turned around to leave but was stopped by Kailash.
K: I hope that you keep this thing to yourself only. Don’t tell this to anyone or else it will be in news tomorrow.
S: I will not tell anything to anyone. She felt a bit weird that instead of being happy that his son was ok, he was busy in closing this matter but it least bothered her. She went away happy that she could be of some help to someone. She reached home and slept peacefully.
The next morning was not a pleasant one for Sanchi. She woke up and got ready to go to the college for her lectures. Just as she parked her scooty and went inside the college, she was surrounded by the reporters all around. They were asking her questions which were irrelevant to her at that time.
R1: Please tell us from when were you in contact with him?
R2: Did he propose you yesterday?
R3: Are you dating him?
She stood there clueless about the happenings. She was feeling suffocated with the bombardment of questions. All were puzzled when they heard a voice from the entrance of the college. It was of Kailashnath Kapoor. He walked towards the crowd and stood in front of Sanchi.
K: Please no more questions to my would be daughter-in-law. Sanchi’s eyes widened in shock. She was about to speak when Kailash took hold of her hand and dragged her inside the college.
S: Excuse me sir, what did you say in front of the crowd a minute ago? She asked after reviving from the shock.
K: Oh please now don’t act. See the news for yourself.
He handed her the tab which consisted of the latest news. ‘Kabir Kapoor having an affair with a common girl’ the news headlines read. The article also consisted of photo when she was helping him yesterday. She was shocked and began to explain herself. She was cut out in the starting itself.
K: I know that it is not true but now you have to marry Kabir for the sake of my reputation and your family. I know that your father is bankrupt so you can save him. If you agree for this marriage then I will pay all the debts of your father. She was now in a fix. She had taken up the job of a professor to support her family as it was tough time for them. She wanted to be a doctor but the situations were against her will. She half heartedly accepted the offer as she wants her parents to be carefree. Kabir too agreed for the marriage as he had to save his company’s respect.
They were married within a span of few days. The marriage was a personal affair. Sanchi’s family and friends were there and Kabir and his father. Kailash had arranged a grand reception for the society. All the film stars and business tycoons of the country attended the reception. Flashes were seen all the sides as the cameras captured the grandest reception of the country. Sanchi and Kabir did not get any time to talk. They did not know each other so basically they were strangers when they got married. Everyone was visiting them on the dais one by one and gifting them costly things. She was tired of being introduced to new people and her cheeks were hurting as she pasted a fake smile for all the pictures. The reception started at 8:00 pm and lasted till 2:00 am midnight. They reached home and Sanchi was taken to Kabir’s room. She changed and sat on the bed as her body ached due to the heavy jewelry and designer clothes. She was stretching her body parts to relieve the pain when she heard the door of the room open. She saw Kabir who had changed into casuals as well. He came near her and sat on the opposite end of the bed. He began talking.
K: Look there is certain things that I want to clear. I was not interested to marry you and I have married you just to save my company’s respect. I want you to know about me so that if someone asks you anything then you won’t be blank. I expect that you will also tell me your likes and dislikes. So let’s start with me…… he went on for half an hour. He turned around to Sanchi as he was expecting her to speak but he saw her fast asleep. The pain and tiredness had taken over her well. She tried to keep herself awake but her eyelids dropped slowly and she drifted to sleep. He went to her side of bed and picked her in his arms. He laid her properly on the bed and covered her with a quilt. She looked so cute while sleeping and he stared her for a few minutes and went to work. He came back at 6:00 am in the morning and slept only to wake up at 7:00 am for his gym.
