Vani - Snippets

Parda (2)

Bani changed into her snake form and went to Jai's car. When she got there she saw him pacing back and forth with a bottle in his hand. Jai? Tum yahaan itni raath ko kya karr rahe ho? Bani asked. Jai looked over at her and opened his mouth to explain but once he saw her outfit he stepped back and looked at her in confusion. Bani? Yeh...yeh kya pehna hai tumne? Uss cheel ke saamne tum aise kapde pehnti ho?! Bani showed her naagin eyes and pushed Jai back until his back hit his car. Once he saw her snake skin turning a deep shade of red and the anger in her eyes Jai trembled in fear and looked down. Tum hote kaun ho muje yeh savaal karne vaale?! Main jo bhi pehnu voh meri marzi hai! Veeranshu ke saamne aise kapde pehnu yah kissi ke saamne bhi. Tumaara dhamaak itna ganda hai maine kabhi socha nahi tha. Abh karre raho ge yah batao ge bhi pe kya bhaat hai?! Jai stuttered B...Bani...main...main yeh...yeh jadoo vaala paani lekhar aaya...yeh kissi bhi cheel ko palaa dena aur voh tumaare kaabhu mein aaye ga. Bani looked down at the light blue liquid in the glass jar and then slightly let go of Jai. Yeh? Jai...mere paas in bhaaton ke liye waqt nahi hai. Muje pehle yeh jaan na hai ke Veeranshu ko kisne apne kabze mein kiya tha aur uss Shakura ko uski jaggah bejah. Jai put the bottle in Bani's hand and tried his best not to lash out at her. Bani...bhaat ko samjoh. Abh humaare paas itna waqt nahi hai...voh cheel din parr din aur shaktiyon ko paarahe hai. Yeh paani tum uss Pawan ko pilaadena. Fir dekhna voh kaise tumaare ishaaron pe naachta hai. Jaise uss din pool parr tumein yeh paani pilaaya gaya tha na? Yaadh hai tum kaise cheekh rahi thi aur apne aap ko chaaku ke saath bhi choth paunchayi. Right when he said that Bani looked up at Jai in shock. He realized what he said and avoided looking at her with the hopes that she wouldn't have figured it out. Ek minute...tumne...tumne toh kahaa tha ke voh chotth Veeranshu ne muje di...tum vaahan the? Jabh main hosh mein aayi aur Veeranshu ko kitna kuch kaha toh tumne muje sach kyun nahi bataaya? Veer...Veer ko kitna burra lagga...aur main...main...Veeranshu...she felt the tears welling up in her eyes and looked back at the house now. Last night she knew in her heart that Veer would never do such a thing but was still slightly under the power of the potion that Jai gave to her that she wasn't thinking straight. Now she could see clearly that Veer, the man who confessed how much he cares for her, would never do such a thing. Bani put the potion back in Jai's hands and turned to leave. Bani! Tum hosh mein toh ho?! Apna mission chodh ke abh uss cheel ko manaane ja rahi ho? Yeh bottal toh lekhar jao! Bani turned her face and took the bottle in her hands. Jai sighed in relief, but what Bani said next made him tremble in fear. Yeh bottal toh main zaroor lekhar jaoongi. Lekin kissi cheel ko dene ke liye nahi, balki ek naag ko dungi. Tabh hi toh pattah lagge ga ke yeh naag mere barose ke laayak hai bhi ke nahi...aur ha...aggar tumne muje dokha diya tabh bhi main tumein maaf kardungi. Lekin aggar, aggar tum vohi teh jisne Veeranshu ko apni kaiyd mein rakha, usko maara peeta, jaan se maarne ki koshish kiyi...toh dekh lena Jai. Tumein main tarpah tarpah ke maarungi. Aaj tumaare saamne bas ek aadhi naagin hi nahin balke ek patni bi karri hai. Main mere patti ke liye duniya aur apne Bholenaath se bhi ladhne ke liye tayaar hoon toh tum kya cheez ho? Kayi bhaar tumne mujse ek savaal poocha tha na ke main kyun Veeranshu ko nahi maar rahi. Toh abh sunno. Main chaahti hoon usko. Fikkar karti hoon uski...mere dil mein sirf Veeranshu basta hai. Abh main usko kabhi nahi chodhne vaali. Abh aayi bhaat samaj mein? Abh daffah hojao yahaan se. Bani ran back inside while Jai stood there dumbfounded. He pinched himself to see if he was having a dream but in fact, this was real. He couldn't believe his ears. Yes, he knew that Bani was falling for the cheel but always thought that he would be able to guilt trip her into staying loyal to him. Now, where would he go? Surely if Bani found out the truth, which she eventually would, she would kill him or just ban him from the Naag vansh if he was lucky. Nuy nuy...isse pehle ke voh aadhi naagin muje maarde yah fir meri shaktiya mujse cheen le...main kudh bhaag jaata hoon. Jai decided to finally leave Mumbai and prayed to God that he would never cross paths with Bani again.
