{Tried something different}

Hassena (on verge of crying)- Anubhav aapko kuch nahi hoga. Aap jara Dhiraj rakhiye...

She said while pushing the strecher in hospital. Karishma too was pushing it, on which he was Anubhav totally red in blood, he was shot three times.

The doctor took him inside while the two stood their gazing the OT door. Tears threatened to fall from their eyes but they gulped Down their tears. MPT members came running from back.

Pushpa ji (worried)- Kya hua? Kaha hai Anubhav?

Santosh (impatient to know)- Kuch boliye na Karishma madam, Maddamsir. Kya hua hai Anubhav sir ko?

Hassena (tear rolled down her cheek)- Unhe teen baar shot kiya hai. Doctor unhe andar lekar gaye hai. Pata nahi kya hoga?

Santosh (coming near them)- Aap dariye maat madam. Kuch nahi hoga Anubhav sir ko. Hume sab unse itna pyaar karte hai. Unhe kuch nahi hoga. Haina Cheete.

All could clearly see she was just on verge of breaking down but had controlled just because her seniors and sisters. Pushpa ji kept her hand over her shoulder.

Pushpa ji- Sambhalo Santu aapne aap ko.

Cheeta- Ha Santu ji.

Pushpa ji went near Karishma and Hassena. Santosh and Cheeta watched them in worry.

Pushpa ji- Aaise chup maat rahiye Karishma ji, Maddamsir, jo bhi haina andar usse bahar nikal dijiye varna taklif hogi aapko.

Hassena looked at the duo and sat on the bench.

Karishma (blankly)- Pata hai Pushpa ji, bhaiya na sirf ath (8) saal ke the jab Chacha ji desh ki seva karte karte Shahid ho gaye. Ek constable hi the. Par deshbhakt na pure pakke the.

Hassena was listening to their conversation.

Karishma (she continued)- Humne toh aapne chacha ji ko kabhi dekha hi nahi. Aapko pata hai Amma, uske baad kabhi bhi bhaiya muskura nahi hai. Aapni Maa aur ghar ko sambhal ne ke chakkar mein khud ko bhul gaye voh. Bhaiya ne aapni saari padhai scholarship se puri ki, kyuki voh hamare Amma aur baba par bojh nahi banna chahte the. Badi muskil se unhe naukri lagi voh bhi IB mein. IB mein jate hi jaise unhone aapne aap ko pathar dil dikhana shuru kar diya, jabki hum sab jaante the ki unhe hum sab se jyada dard hota hai, aapnon se dur rehne ka.

Jab hum force join karne vale the, Maa aur baba ne mana kar diya, lekin voh sirf Bhaiya hi the, jinhone hum sahara diya, issi vajah se aaj hum aapni vardi pehente hai, aapne desh ki seva karte hai. Bohot acche bete, bhai, aur deshbhakt hai hamare bhaiya. (Tears escaped her eyes) Iske bavjood unki zindagi mein sirf dard hi mila hai Amma. Musibaton ne kabhi unka picha nahi choda. Maut se bhi jyada tadpaya hai unhe.

Aur hum (turning towards Pushpa ji) Humne bhi toh vahi kiya Amma. Humne bhi unhe sirf dard diya. Sagai ke din mile the hum unhe. Maddamsir ke liye humne aapne ussi bhai par gun taan di. Uss vakt hume yeh ehsaas nahi hua ki hum kya kar rahe the. Baad mein ehsaas hua ki kitna bura laga hoga unhe. Aaj bhi jab hum apni uss mulakat ko yaad karte hai na toh ruh kaap jati hi hamari unka chehra aur awaj yaad karke. Voh tut chuke the Amma, pure tut chuke the. Iss sab ka akele kaise samna kar liye unhone Pushpa ji? Maddamsir ke paas hum sabhi the, hai, honge, par unke paas koi nahi tha. Sab ke saat rishta tod kar chale gaye voh, sirf hume surakshit rakhne ke liye.

Matlab jinhone hume Deshbhakti ki paribhasha sikhayi unpar humne deshdrohi hone ka shak kaise kar diya? Kitne bure hai hum (she hugged Pushpa ji and started crying there itself)

Hassena was too having tears.

Hassena's pov

Ya Allah kitne acche hai hamare Anubhav. Kitna kuch Saha unhone. Aur humne kya kiya? Humne bhi toh unke upar deshdrohi hone ka shak kiya. Sirf desh ke liye jinhone sab kuch chod diya voh insaan deshdrohi kaise ho sakta hai. Nahi! Aaj aapne sabit kar diya hai Anubhav ki, humne aapse pyaar karke koi galti nahi ki.

Hassena's pov ended.

*************

3 years later,

Hassena stood infront of mirror to wipe her wet hair, and Anubhav hugged her from behind. He caressed her baby bump as she was 7 months pregnant.

She smiled and turned towards him and hugged him tightly. He too wrapped his arms around her.

Anubhav- Aap thik haina Hassena?

Hassena- Ha, hum bilkul thik hai aur baby bhi. Aapko aaj nikalna hai toh jaldi jakar aapne kapde pack kijiye, kyuki hum nahi karne vale bohot kaam hai hume.

Saying this, she turned, her back facing him, hiding her tears.

Anubhav (worriedly)- Priye, hum jaante hai, aap iss halat mein hai, hamara mission par jana thik nahi hai parantu kya kare? Kintu yaadi aap aaise rahengi toh hamare shishu ko bhi toh taklif hogi aur aapko bhi. Please hamare jaane ke baad apna dhyaan rakhna.

He came infront of her and kneeled down. He kissed her bump and the baby kicked. Both smiled.

Anubhav (smiling)- Dekha yeh bhi hume shubhkamnaye de raha hai.

Hassena (taunting)- Pure yakin se keh sakte hai ki hamara baccha aapke upar hi jaane vala hai. Abhi se aapka hi chamcha hai.

Anubhav (teasing)- Jab aap sadaiv hamare baarein mein sochengi toh yahi hoga na.

Hassena chuckled.

Hassena took his hand, as he stood up and kept it on her belly.

Hassena (looking in his eyes)- Anubhav, hum aapse vada toh nahi karne ke liye kahenge lekin kaam se kaam aapne bacche ke liye sahi salamat lautne ki koshish jarur karna. Hum nahi chahte ki jo hum dono ne Saha voh hamara baccha sahe.

Saying this, she hugged him. Anubhav too could understood her concern and insecurities. He gently caressed her back.

Anubhav- Hum jarur koshish karenge. Lekin hume aapse ek vaada chahiye. (She looked at him) Hume vada chahiye ki aap aapna pura dhyaan rakhengi. Bilkul bhi tension ya stress nahi lengi. Vada kijiye. Aur agar toda toh hum aapse baat nahi karenge.

He cupped her face and pressed a kiss on her forehead. She closed her eyes and took in his warmth.

It was new phase of their life, still the life wasn't so good to them. After marriage they well managed their personal and professional life, but in some expects, it is very difficult, but they stood as each other's pillars and always will.
