Ankhaiye baatein aksar andhure kisaye ban jaate hai
Joh dard, lafaz nah keh sakaye
Woh ankhe baya kar deti hai
Seeing Haseen Malik after a month. Karishma Singh was feeling like she's meeting her after centuries.
The longing pain and desires which she couldn't scream in words.
A lone drop of tear from her eye, imprinted the tale of her pain.
However, for the person she wrote the tale of her pain.
Haseena Malik or Urmila Mahdev Mathre, whoever this girl is. She wasn't able to see it and left without reading like a, Known Stranger.
Leaving Karishma Singh eyes again turning barren that looking at her retaining figure, far from KS naked eyes. A mere thought by her mind provoke her.
" She's not her madam sir"
" Yeh madam sir nahi hai, yeh madam sir ho hi nahi sakti."
Pushpa ji said still couldn't believe what she saw and heard from the mouth of Urmila whom she consider Haseena Malik.
" Yeh madam sir he hai"
Karishma Singh finally opened the her lips while giving a shut up call to her brain who's provoking her that, this girl is not Haseena Malik.
" Yeh ap kaisi baatein kar rahi hai, Karishma madam? Apko yeh Mumbai ki mirchi kaha se madam sir lag rahi hai?"
PJ asked could believe that KS comparing an ordinary girl of Mumbai with madam sir.
" Hum is bare main baad main baat kare gay, Pushpa ji. Chali, inko apna visit aur Mira ki file register kar dete hai"
KS told diverting the topic. She greeted inspector first and then handling him Mira's case file and there reporting file.
She looked at Pj and then sighing investigates about Urmila.
🍁____________🍁
Since they have came out of Dadar police station. Karishma Singh got as quiet as the death.
Her eyes that for second learned to twinkle again, they again become deserted in second.
Not such because words of Inspector Waghmare who told them about Urmila identity, but more than him.
Urmila or Haseena Malik gesture hurt Karishma. She in her dreadful dream never imagined that her madam sir will forget her, like she doesn't exists in her life.
She ( HM) with her known gaze, gave Karishma Singh the label of " Behrupiya"
Like Haseena Malik for the first them is seeing her.
That unknown look from the most desirable person, pierced Karishma's soul that is wishing to get buried right away.
" Karishma beta"
Pj called her finally breaking the silence between them.
Karishma Singh who was deep lost in collecting the pieces of incident that just took place, couple of hours before.
" Ji"
KS said slowly without looking at Pj.
" Hum jaate hai ke ap us Urmila ke bare main soch rahi hai. Sach pooche toh ek pal ke liya hume bhi laga ke woh humari, madam sir hai.
Lakin jab hume uski ankho main humare liya aur apke liya anjaanpan dekha.
Toh hume yakeen hoga ke yeh humari madam sir nahi hai. Aur joh phir bhi kahin na kahin ek umeed ki lo jaal rahi thi.
Woh us inspector Dankhmare---"
" Pj! Dankhmare?"
KS said looking at Pj surprisingly.
" Nahi, haan Jakhmare"
Pj said sounding to be correct. KS shook her head and correct her.
" Waghmare naam hai unka, Pj"
" Haan haan wohi, maare. Unho he bhi apko Urmila ke aur uske parivar ke bare me sara info diya na.
Ke woh kon hai aur peechal kahin saalon se woh apne baap dada ka khandani kaam sambhal rahi hai---"
" Toh, Pushpa ji?"
KS asked rising her brow like she doesn't care about what other says.
" Toh? Toh yeh ke, woh humari madam sir nahi hai, Karishma madam.
Haan maana ke is ki shakal humari madam sir, SHO Haseena Malik se milti hai.
Par kaha humari madam sir Lucknow ki adab wali, meethi boli wali Haseena Malik aur kaha yeh.
Yeh Mumbai ki kadak laal mirchi zuban kholte he muh se angaree baraste hai.
Nahi, yeh humari madam sir ho he nahi sakti"
Pj said refusing to accept and believe that this Urmila is their madam sir.
" Hum apki baat samjh rahy hai, Pushpa ji. Lakin yeh hi hai humari madam sir, SHO Haseena Malik"
KS spoke trying to make Pj believe but Pj refused.
" Samjhna hume nahi, apko hai aur hoga, Karishma madam. Ke, madam sir ja chuki hai aur yeh joh koi bhi hai.
Yeh sirf unki humshakal hai. Humseerat nahi."
KS looked at Pj angrily making Pj quiet.
" Driver gadi roke"
KS commanded driver. Driver nodded and park the car at side of the door.
" Gadi kyun---"
Before Pj could speak. KS comes out of car while commanding driver to take Pj to hotel.
Pj quickly comes out of car and running behind KS asked
" Ek min kaha ja rahi hai ap?"
" Pj, hum kuch samay ke liya akale rehna chahte hai. Ap hotel ja kar rest kare.
Hum raat main apko wohi mile gay"
KS told walking on footpath. Pj held KS hand from behind and stopping her spoke
" Hum jaate hai ke ap kaha ja rahi hai. Ap us Urmila se mile jaa rahi hai. Haina?"
KS turned towards Pj and straight looking in her eyes told.
" Toh phir ap yeh bhi ache se jaan le, Pushpa ji. Ke woh Urmila nahi, SHO Haseena Malik hai.
Kyun ke, ap sab ke jaise. Yeh humara tapaa hua dimagh humko ghumra kar sakta hai.
Ke woh madam sir nahi, Urmila Mahadev Mathre hai.
Lakin humari yeh ankhe aur yeh joh yaha humare seene main pathar tha.
Jisko madam sir ney eshaas aur jajjbaaton ka chumba ban diya. Ke yeh unko dekh kare jeena aur dharkan sikh gay.
Us dil ka kya, Pushpa ji. Boliye? Jab is dil ko yakeen nahi aa raha, jis ney isko dharkan sikha diya.
Toh phir kaise hum yeh mann le ke woh koi aur hai.
Humari jeene ki wajha nahi?
Pj looked at KS with concern and without unknown fear which is engulfing inside her and warning her about something bad to be happen.
But seeing KS believe, she too wanted to give a chance to KS believe while ignoring her fear.
" Toh theek hai phir hum bhi apke sath jaye ga us se milne"
Pj told and this brought weak smile on KS face.
" Sach may, Pushpa ji. Ap humare sath sach main madam sir se milne aa rahi hai?"
KS asked like a small kid. Pj eyes got moist seeing eagerness in KS voice. She place hand on KS cheek and caressing her cheek gently nodded yes.
" Toh phir chaliye, is se phele ke hume dar ho jaye"
KS spoke excitedly and was about run but stopped saying
" Ek min"
" Ab kya hua?"
PJ asked looking at KS suspiciously.
" Phele ap humse wada ki jaiye ke ap yeh baat kisi ko nahi bataye gayi"
KS spoke extending her hand towards Pj to make a promise.
" Wada? Kis baat ke liya aur kisi ko kya nahi batana?"
Pj asked standing clueless about what KS is saying.
" Cheehat, Billu aur Santu ko Pushpa ji. Un teeno ko ap madam sir ke bare main nahi bataye gayi abhi. Ke woh zinda hai. Samjhi ap"
KS told leaving Pj shocked.
" Yeh ap kaisi baatein kar rahi hai? Aur hum kyun unko nahi baata sakte?"
Pj asked not getting why KS want this.
" Woh sab humko baad main bataye gay. Ap bus wada kare, Pushpa ji. Ke jab tak hum nahi bole gay. Ap unko kuch nahi bataye gayi"
KS told looking at her extended hand. PJ looked at KS and then putting hand on hers, promised KS that she won't tell rest of MPT members about madam sir.
" Yeh unhi na baat. Ab chaliye"
KS told getting excited to meet MS.
" Haye bholenaat, humne apki ek beti ko kho diya. Ab dusari ko nahi khona chahte. Please kuch kijiye is se phele yeh toot kar bikar jaye."
Pj prayed joining her hands. When she heard KS.
" Pushpa ji, ap aa rahi hai ke hum akale he jaye phir?"
KS asked peeking from car window.
" Haan, haan aa rahy hai thoda shant ho jaye"
Pj spoke and running towards car quickly gets inside the car before KS seriously leaves her in mid of the road.
🍁_________________🍁
Both KS and Pj reached to the address which was given by officer and where they could find Urmila or Haseena Malik.
However, reaching there, they got confused to see the place as all the streets seems to be same.
" KM, what should we do? Now where should we find that Mumbai ki mrichi?"
PJ asked looking around. KS glared Pj and said.
" Pushpa ji, kaede se rahi. Madam sir hai woh. Samjhi ap?"
Pj nodded and looking at KS with pain mumbled
" Hum aasha karte hai ke woh he humari, madam sir ho. Kyun ke agar aisa na hua toh, hum darte hai, ke ap khud ko sambhal nahi paye gayi"
KS turned back and seeing Pj not coming behind her.
" Pushpa ji, ab kya hua? Ap rukh kyun gayi? Koi dikate hai?"
KS asked examining PJ worried expression. Pj shook her head and follows KS.
Looking for street no 108, they finally reached Vitthal Vada Pav centre.
Urmila was selling her vada pav and seeing her. KS eyes gets filled with joy.
PJ looked at KS and her eyes welled up to see joy and peace beaming in KS eyes.
" Ab yahi kade, kade dekhti rahy gayi unhe. Ke aagaye bhi bade gayi?"
Pj asked placing hand on KS shoulder. KS without tearing her gaze from from Urmila spoke
" Pushpa ji, humara na himat he nahi ho raha. Aaj se phele hum kabhi itne nervous aur dar nahi hue. Lakin ab, ap dikhiye humare hath pao kaise phul rahy hai."
" Karisham Singh ko bhi ghabraht hoti hai?"
Pj asked getting emotional seeing KS condition. She couldn't believe that she's the same KS whose one look was enough to make other nervous and today, look at her.
How she's getting nervous?
" Kaisi baatein kar rahy hai ap, Pj? Hum bhi insaan hai. Haan mana humko kisi se dar nahi lagta. Par apko pata haina, madam sir ke samne humko kya ho jaata hai.
Hum kuch theek se bol nahi pate. Aur abhi toh hum unko kitne time bad mile wale hai. Toh samjh nahi aa raha ke hum kya kare?"
KS told rubbing her nape in nervousness.
" Haan, ache se pata hai hume ke madam sir ke samne apki halat kaisi ho jaati hai.
Lakin aise he toh nahi na chale ga. Woh khud to nahi aaye gayi na yaha. Hume he unke pass jaana hoga."
PJ spoke looking at Urmila and shook her head.
" Ap theek keha rahi hai, Pushpa ji. Chale chalte hai"
KS took a deep breath and marches ahead. They come close to Urmila's vada pav cart, but both PJ and KS couldn't say a word to Urmila.
They kept watching Urmila when her eyes fell on them. She wipe her hand with cloth and standing in front of them asked.
" Kya reh mausi? Idhare bhi aa gay tum log? Tum log idhare naya aaya hai kya? Phela hafta hai tumhara?
Kumkum lagun abhi tumko? ( She asked doing gesture of applying kumkum to Pj and looking at KS spoke)
Arrey yeh toh chatak Chandi bhi navin lag rahi hai mere ko"
KS was left amused to hear and see Urmila no her madam sir that she was about to speak but Urmila interrupted her.
" Us mausi, dimagh ki mat kar kashi. Ab ladies logo ke sath hum hafta, hafta nahi khelne wali hai.
Ek ko deti hai hafta, utha hai padta hai mereko"
Urmila told and was about to leave but got stopped by Pj.
" Suno, suno hume paise nahi chahiye"
PJ told making Urmila look at them and then told.
" Mufat ka vada pav toh bikhuch he nahi mile ga"
" Arrey nahi, nahi hume woh bhi nahi chahiye"
Pj told nodding negative.
" Toh phir mai gateway of India hai joh tourist ban ke aye mereko dekhne ke liya"
She spoke joining her hands above her head. Urmila's sarcastic words left Pj close her mouth.
" Nahi, dikhiye hume apse baat karni hai akale main, bohat zauari"
KS spoke stretching her forehead in hesitation and nervousness.
" Time nahi hai mere pass"
Urmila refused to listen to them and walking to her cart told them to come in evening. Right now it's her working time.
Seeing attitude of madam sir, KS face again fell low. Pj looked at KS and feels bad for her.
" Ap ko---"
Before Pj could complete. KS spoke interrupting Pj.
" Pushpa ji, jaha itna intezar kar liya. Aaj thoda aur sahi"
Pj nodded and stood beside KS. After sometime KS ask Pj to go back to hotel and rest but Pj refused to leave KS alone.
However, she sat on near by bench and even requested to sit for some time as she is too stand for long without eating, but KS refused.
She kept her sullen gaze filled on Urmila. Urmila felt those dark gaze on her, she turned to find the owner of those intense gaze on her.
Seeing Karishma Singh to be the owner of those gaze. Urmila got little annoyed, yet she continue with her work.
The sun finally bid bye to the sky. Setting the sky filled the despondent which it steal from the eyes of Karishma Singh.
Her eyes got more dull but the wait and urge in her eyes for the person she wants to be in her life. It with every passing minute is getting intense.
" Kya ab hum baat kar sakte hai?"
KS finally asked when she could hold the intensity of her intezar which is burning her.
" Arrey sabar karo, thoda toh dhiraj rako"
Urmila told counting the money which she earned today.
Pushpa was now losing her patience seeing Urmila ignorance. Though she always fights with KS but she never likes if someone treats KS like this.
She is KS and no one can ignore her and treat her like left over.
Pushpa ji glared Urmila and standing up from bench. She spoke making KS look at her
" Karishma madam, ap meri baat suniye. Yeh ladki bohat chalu---"
" Pushpa ji, phir. Apko koi khayal hai ap kis ke bare main kya bol rahi hai. Chalo humare sath to apka chalta hai.
Lakin, madam sir ke bare main agar apne phir kuch ulta seedha bola toh hum bilkul bardast nahi kare gay.
Bata rahy hai hum apko"
KS warned Pj and turned to look at Urmila but got shocked to see her going.
" Madam sir"
KS mumbled and running close to Urmila. She asked blocking her away.
" Kaha jaa rahi hai ap?"
Urmila looked at KS from head to toe and spoke.
" Kya re chatak chandi. Kahe ko aise mera rasta roka hai?"
" Humko apse baat karni hai. Hum bole thy na apko subha"
KS spoke innocently. Urmila kept hands on her hips and told
" Haan, par mujhe nahi karni baat."
" Par kyun?"
KS asked reducing the distance between them.
" Kyun ke aaj somwar hai. Somras peene ka din hai"
Urmila told smiling. KS looked at Pj shockingly who gesturing her with thumb let KS know that she's talking about drinking wine.
" Par apne toh bola tha ke---"
" Ke kuch nahi, ab baaju hath aur hawa aane de"
Urmila said winking and was about to pass by KS but she stopped feeling tug on her wrist.
" Kya kuch nahi. Hum apko pagal lag rahy hai. Joh subha se apka---"
" Karishma madam---"
" Nahi, Pushpa ji. Hume matt rokiye aur tum. Subha se sham thak hum apka intezar kar rahy hai.
Ek din bhi humara sakoon se nahi gujar ap ke bina aur ap humko.
Aise ignore kar rahi hai jaise, hum koi rashte main pada khachra ho"
KS spoke angrily pulling HM to her. Urmila looked at KS and then looking at her hand in grip on KS.
She harshly pushes KS and the result of harsh push. KS fell on road. This shocked Pj, she looked at Urmila more shockingly who yelled on KS.
" Kya re? Teri himat kaise hui Urmila Mahdev Mathre ko chune ki, bol?"
