AASRA

Chapter 28

Naveen: Thanks Pooja ane ke lie. It's been a month aur mujhe sach me samajh nai aa rha hai ki Naina ko kaise sambhalu

Pooja: actually I am sorry Bhaiya. Mai jaldi nai aa payi. Training ke karan leaves nai mil rahi thi.

Naveen: koi bat nahi. Mai samajhta hu. Mai tujhe bulata bhi nai agar koi aur rasta dikhai deta

Pooja: I can understand Bhaiya. Naina jaldi kuch kahti nai hai..

Naveen: vahi na. Aisa lagta hai jaise usne sab band kar lia ho apne andar.

Pooja: Par bhaiya aisa hua kaise? Matlab uski baaton se kabhi aisa nai laga ki un dono ke bich cheeze itni kharab ho gai thi.

Naveen who is finally parking the car, turned towards her.

Naveen: Kya kahu mai. Log apne past se door to Jana chahte hai lekin ja nahin pate. Raj ke sath bhi kuch aisa hi hua hai shayad.

Pooja: matlab vo jo unka past tha..

Naveen looked at her in understanding, "Han, Ritu nam hai uska. Mujhe bhi detail me jyada kuch nai pata, Naina mujhse kuch kah nahin rahi hai. Par ek letter mila tha mujhe Raj ka likha hua"

Pooja: kya tha usme?

Naveen told her what is there in the letter and she is fuming with anger.

Pooja wanted to slap, curse and insult Rajveer at that moment but somehow she knew it won't help Naina in the least.

——————————————————————————

Naina didn't reacted much on seeing Pooja. She smiled merely with vacant eyes and keep going on with her daily routine.

Pooja tried to talk to Naina but she didn't responded much. She is feeling helpless but couldn't do much.

Naveen and Shalini asked her just to be there with her. After trying for 2 days, Pooja is loosing hope. She is sitting with Naveen and Sherry after dinner. Naina went to sleep early as usual.

Pooja: Bhaiya Naina ...mujhe kuch samajh nahin aa rha hai

Naveen: mujhe bhi nahin aa rha tha islie to tumhe bulaya, ki shayad tumhe dekh kar vo kuch kahegi

Sherry : actually Pooja, Naina na ek ticking time bomb ki tarah hai. Usne apne andar sab band kar lia hai jis din usse sab chutne lagega use humari zarurat hogi

Pooja: hmm. Magar aj tak usne kabhi itni badi bat ke bad mujhe block nahin kia hai. Kam se kam kuch to kahti thi par abhi to...

Naveen: Abhi vo kisi se kuch nahin kah rahi hai

Pooja: mujhe to samajh nahin aa rha ab bhi ki achanak aise hua kyu? Sab kuch to thik tha un dono ke bich

Naveen: mujhe bhi thik se samajh nahin aya par Raj pahle bhi ye kar chuka hai. Ritu ke age use kuch nahin dikhta hai..

Pooja: matlab? Unki khud ki wife bhi nahin? Fir ye shadi akhir ki kyu unhone?

Naveen: shadi....I think Pooja he genuinely wanted to move on, at that time..... par Ritu is like an addiction to him...door raha nahin jata aur sath rah kar khushi nahin milti

Pooja: what??? Mujhe na samajh nahin aa rha

Sherry : Pooja he is in a toxic relationship. Most of the relationships surrounding him are like that. Uske father , jo sirf Raj ko ek trophy ki tarah treat karte hai. Uske parents ke jhagde, aur fir Ritu. Ritu is an escape point for him par vo bhi Raj ko kabhi ek healthy commitment nahin de payi.

Pooja: Mai ab bhi puri tarah se nahin samjhi

Sherry : you can only give in a relationship which you have. Raj have only complications, insecurities and fear of separation inside him curtsey Ritu and his parents. So vo vahi de rha hai vapas.

Pooja: but how is this fair for Naina?

Sherry: it's not. But it wasn't fair for Raj either right

Pooja didn't looked convinced.

Sherry : see Pooja, I am not defending him. I know what he did was wrong and to some extent cruel. But I am just trying to explain you where it all came from.

Pooja: I hate him for hurting Naina this much

Naveen: I understand. I wanted that too par Pooja usne mere lie bahut kia hai. Jab mere maa baba gujar gaye the .....I could never forget how much he supported me

Pooja: so jo Naina ke sath hua uske bad bhi you will take his side?

Naveen: nahin Pooja. Usne jo Naina ke sath kia uske lie mai use maaf nahi kar sakta par what I am saying is ki he is not a bad human being. He is just messed up.

Pooja: Han aur apne mess me, usne ab meri Naina ki zindagi mess up kar di hai.

Naveen sighed as he knew what Pooja was saying is correct.

Pooja: aur us bacche ka kya? Doesn't he care about the child?

Sherry : use Naina ki pregnancy ke bare ne nahin pata hai

Pooja: why?

At that moment only Naina came inside the room and said, "because I don't want him to know"

They all looked at her. She is looking at Naveen, "Bhaiya I want this pregnancy terminated. I don't want this baby"
