Masoom Ishq (Completed)

Chapter 23: Parting Ways

Sidharth smiled sadly.

"Tum ne ek chiz manga, lekin woh bhi pura nahi ho sakta. Ho sake toh mujhe maaf kar dena." Said Sidharth in his mind.

They again went inside the car and Sidharth started driving while thinking about the moments they spent together.

Ruth jaana tera, maan jaana mera
Dhoondh te teri hasi
Mil gayi meri khushi

Raah hoon mein teri
Rooh hai tu meri
Dhoondh te tere nishaan
Mil gayi khudi

Soon they reached Delhi. In the way Sidharth bought Naaz everything she asked for as he didn't want to say no. This was last time he was doing this. He wouldn't be able to see her for many years. He bought her Barbie dolls, teddy bear and some hairclips. Naaz was very happy getting all these. But she didn't know that soon she would get the biggest shock of her life.

They soon entered the school. Sidharth came out of the car and helped Naaz to come out. He started walking holding her hand. His heart ached thinking that it was the time to say goodbye.

Tu jo mila lo ho gaya main kaabil
Tu jo mila toh ho gaya sab haasil ha…

Mushjil sahi aasaan hui manzil
Kyunki tu.. dhadkan main dil…

Oh Oo..

"Hum yaaha kyu aaye hai?" Asked Naaz looking at the school.

Sidharth suddenly left her hands.

"Yeh tumhara naya school hai. Aur aaj se tum yaheen rahogi." Said Sidharth controlling his tears.

"Matlab?" Asked Naaz. She couldn't understand what he said.

"Yeh boarding school hai Naaz. Tumhe yaaha rehke hi padhna hoga. Main bas tumhe yaaha chhor ne aaya tha."

Naaz was shocked hearing that.

"Matlab aap mujhe apne saath ghar wapas nahi le ke jaayenge?" She asked.

Sidharth ignored the question and called a care taker. He told him to show Naaz her room.

Then he looked at Naaz and said, "Acche se padhai karna."

He was about to leave but Naaz grabbed his hand.

"Kaha jaa rahe hai aap? Mujhe nahi rehna yaaha. Mujhe ghar jaana hai." She said.

"Naaz yeh possible nahi hai." Said Sidharth without looking at her.

Naaz started crying.

"Please Sidharth! Main aap ke aur Maa ke bina nahi reh paaungi. Agar mujhse koi galti hui hai toh mujhe daantiye yaa maar li jiye. Lekin akela chhor ke mat jaiye." She said while crying.

"Tum samajhti kyu nahi Naaz? Tum nahi reh sakti mere saath." He said loudly.

"Kyu nahi reh sakti?... Sidharth main aap ko promise karti hoon, main aage se koi badmaashi nahi karungi, aap ki har baat maanungi, subah zaldi uth jaungi, khana bhi khud khaa lungi, apne shoe laces khud badhungi aur time se apna homework bhi kar lungi. Aap please mujhe apne saath le chalo."

Sidharth couldn't control anymore. He bent down and cupped her face.

"Aise mat bolo. Tumne kuch galat nahi kiya hai. Meri kuch majboori hai jis wajah se main tumhe apne saath nahi rakh sakta. Tumhe kuch dino ke liye yaheen rehna hoga. Promise karo tum ek good girl banke rahogi and acche se padhai karogi. Har exams mein top karogi. Promise karo?" He said.

Tears rolled down both of their eyes.

"Promise." She said. "Lekin aap bhi promise karo, aap mujhe yaaha se lene zaldi aaoge."

"Promise." He said and gave a long kiss on her forehead.

Then he started leaving. Naaz kept looking at him with teary eyes.

"Main apna promise sayad nahi nibha paunga. Lekin ek promise aaj main khud se karta hoon. Main humesha tumhara Pati rahunga. Wait karunga tumhare bade hone ka. Uske baad hum dono humesha saath rahenge, thik jaisa tumne pray kiya tha." Said Sidharth in his mind.

He left from there with a heavy heart.

Tu jo mila lo ho gaya main qaabil
Tu jo mila toh ho gaya sab haasil ha…

Tu jo mila aasaan hui mushkil
Kyunki tu.. dhadkan main dil...

Later that night...

Sidharth was having dinner with his mother. He was just playing with the food and he was not feeling like eating.

Rita Maa noticed it and asked, "Naaz ki yaad aa rahi hai? Paata nahi usne kuch khaya bhi yaa nahi?"

Sidharth suddenly stood up and left from there without eating.

He went to his room. The room was filled with their memories. He tried to sleep but couldn't as she was not beside him.

So he went near the window and stared at the moon.

On the other hand, Naaz was also looking at the moon.

The moon was reminding them of each other.

Flashback...

One night, Sidharth and Naaz was watching the moon.

"Naaz, tumhe moon pe kuch dikh raha hai?" Asked Sidharth suddenly.

"Nahi toh." Replied Naaz.

"Dhyan se dekho waha pe..." Sidharth pointed his finger towards the moon. "Do aankhein, ek naak aur ek kiss karta hua muh. Kitna cute hai nah?"

Naaz narrowed her eyes.

"Par mujhe toh kuch aur hi dikh raha hai." She said.

"Kya dikh raha hai?"

"Mujhe toh ek daravna sa chehra dikh raha hai. Gussa karta hua."

"Aankhein kharab hogayi hai tumhari. Mujhe toh ek cute chehra dikh raha hai."

"Haaye sacchi! Daravna chehra hai. Aur aisa lag raha hai main yeh chehra roz dekhti hoon."

Sidharth glared her.

"Arrey moon pe bhi aisa hi chehra dikh raha hai." She said excitedly looking at his face.

Then they both started giggling.

Flashback ends...

Naaz wiped her tears.

"Please mujhe zaldi lene aa jaana Sidharth." She said in her mind.

Days passed very fast. In these days Rita Maa used to call and check on her. But Sidharth never talked with her. Whenever Naaz asked about Sidharth, Rita Maa made some excuse.

Soon summer vacation came. Everyone's parents came to meet their children. But none came to meet Naaz. She felt like crying.

"Aap ne apna promise tod diya Sidharth. Aap nahi aaye mujhe lene. Aap bhi mere Mama Mami ki tarah hai. Unki tarah aap ne bhi mujhe apne ghar se nikal diya. Aap bhi mujhse pyaar nahi karte. Koi mujhse pyaar nahi karta." She said in her mind while crying.
