Hello everyone...

I'm back with the next chapter...

FATE TWISTED BY LOVE

CHAPTER 4

Nanu knew that none of them would agree to marriage. But what surprised him more was that Naina had rejected the proposal outright. When they were in the study room, she had left the decision on his grandson & now he was sure that Sameer had misbehaved with her & hurt her, or else she wouldn't have been the first one to reject this.

Nanu was aware that she would've accepted this marriage for the sake of her Nanaji's promise. But now he was apprehensive, he understood that Sameer had no doubt crossed his lines with her. The girl who had finally started smiling from the last few days forgetting her past looked more broken & vulnerable now. He had seen her packed luggage which meant she had decided & was ready to leave as well.

What had Sameer done to her? He felt guilty now that he left them alone in the evening. He should've known that his grandson would definitely create some scene behind his back. After hearing Naina's verdict, no one spoke anything. She left to her room while Sameer sighed & walked off after few minutes.

Nanu too got up & went to the kitchen to drink some water. From last few days he was feeling uneasy & was having a little pain in his chest which he overlooked & didn't visit the doctor. He had just picked up the glass when suddenly the chest pain increased & he fall down with a thud, the glass he was holding also slipped from his hand, whose sound echoed in the whole silent house.

Ramdhari heard the voice & came running to the kitchen assuming that some rat would've entered. But the sight in front of him froze him to his place for a few seconds & then he screamed on top of his voice, "Sameer Bhaiyaa... Naina didi... Jaldi aaiye. Dekhiye Nanaji ko kya ho gaya hai."

Ramdhari's sudden scream rattled the other two & they came down running. The scene they saw was of pure shock. Sameer was instantly next to Nanu & with the help of Ramdhari, they picked him up & placed him on the couch, while Naina had immediately called the doctor & the ambulance too.

Naina sat down near the couch & started rubbing his palms & foot. Sameer kept staring at his lifeline who was unconscious & motionless in front of his eyes. He had always dreaded this. He didn't have anyone in his life except for Nanu & Munna-Pandit. How would he stay alive if anything happens to anyone of them?

Within ten minutes, they heard the sound of the ambulance. At the precise moment, the doctor also stepped in the house in a hurry & checked him. They immediately left towards the hospital. Sameer sat in the ambulance with his Nanu while Naina & Ramdhari followed the ambulance in an autorickshaw. Naina kept mumbling some prayers to God in a low voice while Ramdhari kept crying.

The scene in the ambulance wasn't any different. Sameer held his Nanu's hand & cried, "Nanu... Please apni aankhen kholiye. Dekhiye aapka Sameer aapke paas hai. Aap... aap... aise mujhe chod kar nahi jaa sakte. Aap mujhe anaath nahi kar sakte Nanu. Uthiye na Nanu... Please uthiye na. Mera koi nahi hai aapke sivaa. Agar aapko kuch ho gaya toh main firse akela ho jaunga. Mera koi nahi Nanu aapke siva... Please uthiye na Nanu... Please uthiye naa."

The doctor who was hearing this, tried to console him, "Sameer... Tum fikar mat karo. Hum hospital jaa rahe hai na, sab thik ho jaayega. Tum rona band karo. Tumhare Nanu ko accha nahi lagega yeh jaankar ki tum itna ro rahe the. Isse tumhari tabiyat bhi bigad sakti hai. Tumhe himmat rakhni hogi Sameer. Nanu jald thik ho jaayenge."

They reached the hospital & Nanu was taken to the emergency room. Sameer, Naina & Ramdhari stood outside the door waiting for the doctor to get some news about him. Whilst they were waiting, Sameer's phone rang & he picked it up instantly after seeing the caller's name.

"Munna... Main... main hospital mein hun. Nanu... Nanu ko kuch ho gaya hai. Tu jaldi aa jaa please." He cut the call & slipped down on the floor. Naina saw his broken state & was next to him in an instant. Her hands trembled while she rubbed her hand behind his back to sooth his pain. She too was crying silently, praying to God to save the person whom she had started to treat as her own Nanaji, who was her family now.

Sameer didn't say a word but continued crying. She helped him to get up & made him sit on the chair. Munna & Pandit arrived in the next few minutes & were sad to see Sameer in this pained state. They hugged him & all the three cried & prayed for their Nanu who was battling for his life in the emergency room.

It was after an hour that the doctor came out from the room & Sameer was next to him in a flash, "Doctor... Nanu... Nanu kaise hai ab? Main... kya main mil sakta hun unse?" The doctor silently patted his back & spoke, "Jaiprakashji ko heart attack aaya tha. It was a major one. Unki reports kuch der mein aa jaayengi. Main tab hi kuch thik se bataa paaunga. Abhi toh wohh stable hai. Main bas reports ka intezaar kar raha hun. Sameer... Chinta mat karo. Everything will be fine." He patted his back & left towards his cabin.

Naina had heard everything & unable to control the fresh tears that were ready to burst, she ran in the opposite direction. When she reached the end of the corridor, she saw a small temple of Shiva at the corner. She sat down in front of the deity & started sobbing. "Aap please Nanaji ko kuch mat hone dijiyega. Pehle hi main sab ko kho chuki hun, ab unhe nahi kho sakti. Please... please... please Shivji... unhe thik kar dijiye. Ab Nanaji ke alaawa mere koi nahi hai. Unhe jaldi se thik kar dijiye. Please... Agar wohh thik ho gaye na tohh main agle gyaaraah somvaar upwaas karungi. Please unhe jaldi se thik kar dijiye." She kept sobbing continuously. Unknown to her, all her prayers were heard by the others who stood behind her to offer their prayers too.

It was after an hour or so, Sameer was called by the doctor. The others had followed him to the doctor's cabin. "Sameer... Jaiprakashji ke heart mein teen blockages hai. Hume jaldi se surgery karni hogi. Warna unki jaan ko khatra hai. Tum samaj rahe ho na." Sameer stood there stunned to hear all this. They would operate a surgery on his Nanu. This news didn't settle well with him. He had never imagined that something like this would happen to his Nanu.

"Doctor... Kya surgery ke baad Nanu bilkul thik ho jaayenge? Unhe kuch hoga toh nahi na?", he asked with a heavy heart. The doctor replied calmly, "Sameer... Surgery ke baad tumhare Nanu ekdum thik ho jaayenge. Unhe poora aaram karna hoga aur bas unke khaane mein dhyaan rakhna hoga, aur sabse important unhe zara sa bhi stress nahi hona chahiye. Unka acche se khayaal rakhna hoga. And then he will be fit & fine."

"Surgery kab karni hai?", he asked the doctor. "Humne hamare best cardiothoracic surgeon, Dr Sanjay Joshi, ko inform kar diya hai, wohh kal subah aa jaayenge. Unse consultation ke baad hum surgery kab karni hai decide kar lenge. Don't worry Sameer... Jaiprakashji jald hi thik ho jaayenge." "Ummm... Kya main unhe ek baar dekh sakta hun?", he wanted to have a glimpse of his Nanu. "Unhe ICU mein shift kar diya hai. Wohh abhi hosh mein nahi hai, toh tum dekh sakte ho."

Everyone left the cabin & Sameer walked towards the ICU slowly. He had never seen his Nanu on the hospital bed. This was all new to him. He stood before the room & inhaled deeply, & opened the door slightly. The sight in front of him brought fresh tears in his eyes & he hesitated before moving ahead. Once inside, he saw his Nanu sleeping on the bed & innumerable machines surrounded him. Few tubes were pricked on both his hands & an oxygen mask had covered his nose & mouth for breathing.

His heart broke after seeing his always jovial Nanu in this situation. He cried silently & then sat on the stool beside the bed. He kept looking at his serene face & promised himself that he would do anything for this man who was his world. After few minutes, the nurse entered & asked him to wait outside. He moved away from his Nanu with a heavy heart. Once outside, he sat down with a thud & started sobbing. Though Munna & Pandit were crying too, but still they consoled him all the while. They knew how much their best friend loved his Nanu.

Naina was seated a little away from them & was crying along. Mundit had asked Ramdhari to go home & take care of the house. No one slept a wink the whole night. The surgeon arrived early next morning & checked all the reports. He informed Sameer that the surgery would be done the same day as his blood pressure seemed normal. Nanu was conscious now so he asked the doctor if he could meet Sameer & Naina before his surgery.

Sameer & Naina entered the ICU together. She was stepping in this room for the first time. She couldn't control the tears that made its way & she wept in front of him. Seeing her Nanaji on that bed with so many tubes & machines, her heart broke million of times. Sameer who was standing next to her also couldn't stop himself from crying.

Few tears rolled down from Nanu's eyes too. He gestured both of them to come ahead & spoke softly, "Bacchon... Main thik hun. Daro mat, mujhe kuch nahi hoga." He smiled a little & continued, "Abhi toh mujhe Jayanti se kiya hua vaada poora karna hai. Tum dono ki shaadi dekhni hai, tumhare bacchon ke saath khelna hai. Mujhe kuch nahi hoga." He started coughing a little & the nurse arrived with two ward boys at the same moment. "Chaliye ab surgery ka time ho gaya hai. Hume inhe operation theatre le jaana hai."

Sameer & Naina left the room without a word. Once they sat in front of the operation theatre, they both looked at each other. They wanted to talk but no words came out. They sat there silently & Mundit went to bring coffees for them. It was after four hours when the door to the operation theatre opened & the doctors came out. "Sameer... the surgery was successful. Ab Jaiprakashji khatre se baahar hai. He's stable now. Anesthesia ki wajah se unhe shaam tak hosh nahi aayega. Tum sab ghar jao. Fresh hokar shaam ko aa jaana. Tab tak unhe hosh bhi aa jaayega.", the surgeon shared.

"Main apne Nanu ko chodkar kahi nahi jaaunga.", Sameer sat down on the chair stubbornly. His friends gestured the doctor that they will take care of him & then the doctor left informing them that he will come to check on Nanu in sometime. Munna & Pandit sat at either side of their friend, "Dekh Sameer... Hum samajte hai ki tu Nanaji ko aisi haalat mein akela nahi chodna chahta. Par unki dekhbhaal karne ke liye tujhe bhi toh apni tabiyat aur sehat ka khayaal rakhna hoga. Agar Nanaji tujhe aisa toota hua dekhenge toh unhe bilkul accha nahi lagega." Pandit continued, "Sahi keh raha hai Chenu. Sameer... Tum fresh hokar firse aa jaana. Hum kahaan keh rahe hai ki tu ghar pe hi ruk jaana. Hum jaante hai ki tu ek minute bhi ghar par nahi rukega."

Sameer didn't move & finally Naina came forward, "Dekhiye... Aap sab ghar jaakar fresh hokar aa jaiyega, tab tak main hun yahaan. Aapke aane ke baad mein bhi ghar chali jaungi. Doctor ne kahaa tha na ki Nanaji ko shaam tak hosh aayega. Toh please tab tak aap ghar hokar aaiye. Main yahaan rukungi." Munna pressed his shoulder & he got up, "Agar kuch lage toh turant call karna mujhe. Main ek ghante mein waapis aa jaunga."

Without giving a backward glance to her, he left with his friends. Pandit dropped him home & they went to their places. As promised, Sameer was back in an hour. He saw Naina sitting outside the ICU. He walked to her & sat beside her, "Tum bhi ghar jao. Kal raat se yahin ho.", he spoke softly seeing her tear-stained face. She just nodded & left.

When she reached home, she asked Ramdhari to pack tiffin for them as they would stay in the hospital. She freshened up fast & helped him in the kitchen. She was back in the hospital in two hours. She spotted Munna-Pandit sitting next to Sameer. They saw her coming & smiled at her except Sameer. He looked away with a blank face. She handed over the tiffin to Munna & asked them to eat.

Munna & Pandit dragged Sameer to the canteen & served him a plate. He denied several times but they didn't listen & then they themselves started feeding their stubborn friend. They finished eating & came back. Pandit handed over the tiffin to her & asked, "Tumne kuch khaaya Naina?" She didn't reply & smiled in response. Before he could say more, the doctor was back to check on Nanu. They hurried towards the ICU when the doctor stopped them, "Aap abhi andar nahi aa sakte." Saying that, he disappeared in the room. After fifteen minutes, they saw him coming out & rushed forward, "Doctor... Kya Nanu ko hosh aa gaya", Sameer asked impatiently.

"Thodi der mein hosh aa jaayega. Tumhare Nanu bilkul thik hai ab. Fikar mat karo. Bas ab acche se dhyaan rakhna. Dekho Sameer... Itne saare log yahaan nahi ruk sakte. Sirf do logon ko main allow kar sakta hun. Jaiprakashji ko hosh aane ke baad aap sab ek ek karke mil lena. Aur unse aisi koi baat mat karna jisse unhe thoda bhi stress ya tension ho. Unke saamne bilkul rona mat. Unhe pyaar ki zarurat hai, aansoon ki nahi. Samjhe tum sab."

Once the doctor left, the nurse entered the room. It was almost over three hours that she informed them that Nanu had regained his consciousness & we could meet him one by one. First Sameer went, then Munna & Pandit & at last Naina went. When she came out, she heard them talking about who would stay the night. Sameer wasn't ready to go home, Mundit tried to make him understand that he too needed rest. But he wasn't listening.

Naina went forward & spoke, "Munna... Pandit... Tum dono ghar jao. Hum yahaan rukenge." Before they could say anything, she spoke, "Tum dono kal raat se yahaan ho. Tumhe kal office bhi jaana hoga na. Sab yahin rukenge toh kaam kaun sambhaalega. Tum dono jao. Hum yahaan sab sambhaal lenge. Please manaa mat karna." Her voice was too low to be heard as she didn't have any energy left to talk anymore. She pleaded with her eyes & they agreed.

Once they were gone, Naina sat two chairs away from him. She rested her head on the wall behind her & closed her eyes. The moment her eyes closed; everything came back in flashbacks. She tried to understand whatever happened in the last few days. She had seen Nanaji's uneasiness. She had even asked him several times but he had neglected it saying it was nothing. Then the whole promise thing happened in the study room. After that she had seen him anxious about their decisions.

Last night, she couldn't tell him that his grandson had hurt her by accusing her of being characterless & a gold-digger. He had hurt her self-respect & dignity & that was the reason she had rejected the marriage proposal. Even if her both the Nanaji's wanted her to marry Sameer for fulfilling their promise, she couldn't allow him to degrade her like that. The accusations were still fresh in her mind.

Her thoughts wavered, "Kal raat shaadi se manaa karne ke baad Nanaji ki tabiyat bigad gayi. Kahin yeh sab mere wajah se toh nahi ho raha? Kya Nanaji ko iss shaadi se itna farak padta hai? Haannn... Farak toh padega na, aakhir unhone mere Nanaji se promise jo kiya tha." She was now feeling guilty about her action last night.

Her thoughts broke, when she heard someone clearing his throat. Her eyes opened in an instant to find Sameer standing in front of her with a tiffin bag. He cleared his throat again & spoke, "Ummmm... Wohhh Ramdhari aaya tha tiffin leke hamare liye. Toh tum bhi kuch kha lo." She looked at the tiffin first & then at him, "Mujhe bhook nahi hai. Aap hi kha lo." He didn't move & stood his ground there. She looked at him again & raised her eyebrows in question. He took a deep breath & spoke, "Naina... Tumne kal se kuch nahi khaaya hai. Sirf aaj do baar coffee pi hai. Please thoda sa khaa lo. Dekho... Tum khao yaa na khao, usse mujhe koi farak nahi padta. Par Nanu ko zaroor farak padta hai. Unke liye hi kha lo. Tumhari utri hui shakal dekhkar unhe pataa chal jaayega ki tumne kuch nahi khaaya peeya hoga. Aur wohh mujhe hi daantenge iske liye. Nanu ke liye hi sahi, please thoda sa kha lo."

She didn't argue further & agreed. They walked towards the canteen & finished their dinner quietly. Nanu was shifted from the ICU to a personal room in the next two days. Sameer & Naina stayed in the hospital all the time. They went home only to freshen up & would be back in an hour. Ramdhari kept delivering tiffin for them twice a day & would come to visit Nanu in the visiting hours with Munna & Pandit. They had taken over the office work completely as Sameer couldn't make it to office. They would come to take his signatures whenever needed.

But nothing changed between Sameer & Naina. They would talk to each other only when it was essential. They would eat in silence & they would meet Nanu one by one. They never went together to meet Nanu. Maybe they knew what Nanu would ask them to do & they weren't ready to face this so soon.

Sameer had thought a lot about all this. He too somewhere felt guilty that he couldn't take proper care of Nanu. He knew & understood that the promise made between the two best friends was very important to him. This marriage seemed inevitable for him. He knew once Nanu would get back home, he would ask them to tie the knot.

But then he would remember Nanu's condition in the hospital. Doctor had asked them to keep him away from stress & tensions. Sameer knew he would've to reluctantly agree to this. Even Naina had the idea about it. Even she knew now that she would give in to her Nanaji's promise after seeing him in the ICU bed. She would never think of hurting the old man now. She promised herself that she would do anything for Nanaji, if it even meant to marry his arrogant grandson, keeping her self-respect at stake.

Nanu was discharged from the hospital after ten days. He was much better now. The doctors had given a long list of do's & don'ts. Once home, many people from the company & his friends visited him to enquire about his health. Sameer worked from home while Naina & Ramdhari would take care of his diet & eating habits.

Both of them were a little relieved that Nanu hadn't broached the topic about marriage yet. But the relief didn't last long. It was after two days after Nanu's return from the hospital that he asked while having dinner together, "Sameer... Naina... Tum dono ne kya socha hai shaadi ke baare mein?"

Both of them glanced at each other & Sameer took the lead, "Nanu... Aap pehle thik ho jaaiye fir hum iss baare mein baat karenge." But the grandfather wasn't ready to give up so soon, "Arey barkhurdaar... Main toh ab bilkul thik hun." Sameer closed his eyes & thought for a while before speaking, "Thik hai Nanu... Main Naina se shaadi karne ke liye taiyaar hun. Par meri ek shart hai."

The moment the words were out, Naina felt a deep hurt in her heart. She knew what was coming up. They had already discussed it two days ago.

FLASHBACK...

They had just arrived from the hospital with Nanu & he was taken to his room to rest. He was sleeping when Naina went to her room to freshen up. She had just stepped out from her bathroom after a long shower, when there was a knock on the door. "Darwaaza khula hai.", she said assuming that Ramdhari had come to give her a cup of tea. As the door opened, she turned & she lost her voice.

Sameer was standing in front of her in a white t-shirt & black trackpants. Her eyes met his & she lowered them instantly, "Kahiye... Kuch kaam tha?" She turned away to face the mirror & started to untie the towel from her head. He entered the room & stood behind her. Their gazes clashed in the mirror. "Mujhe tumse important baat karni hai.", he spoke in a low voice.

She turned facing him "Kahiye..." She didn't want to prolong his stay in her room & so she wanted to wind up the conversation as fast as she could. He took a minute before replying, "Nanu ab ghar aa gaye hai aur hum jyada time tak shaadi ka topic avoid nahi kar paayenge. Aaj nahi toh kal, Nanu humse fir poochenge. Doctor ne kahaa hai ki hume unhe kisi tarah ka stress nahi dena chahiye. Toh main soch raha tha ki..." he stopped trying to find some courage to complete what he was going to propose to her.

"Kya socha hai aapne?", she asked hesitantly. He took a deep breath & continued, "Mujhe lagta hai ki hume shaadi ke liye maan jaana chahiye. Par main chahta hun ki hamari shaadi dhum dhaam se na ho. Main simple si court marriage karna chahta hun, jisme koi invited nahi hoga. It will be a personal affair. Kisi ko pataa nahi chalega ki hamari shaadi hui hai. Par shaadi se pehle main chahta hun ki tum ek prenuptial agreement sign karo. I hope tumhe iska matlab pataa hoga."

Naina couldn't believe her ears. What was he speaking? She didn't comment anything but just nodded & he continued, "Jab Nanu ki tabiyat pehle jaisi normal ho jaayegi tab hum divorce le lenge." She stood stunned after hearing his conditions. Yes... She was ready to marry him. It didn't matter even if it was a simple court marriage. Even the prenuptial agreement was fine with her. But divorce? Was she ready for that? She needed to think this thoroughly.

"Main aapko raat tak jawaan dun toh chalega?", her voice broke at the end but she somehow managed to control the tears that were on the verge to burst. He just nodded & was about to leave, when he turned again "Mujhe yeh kehne ki zarurat nahi hai ki yeh sab sirf hamare beech mein hi rahe." She blinked her eyes in acceptance & he left.

She thought about it a lot. She had got admission in the University & the classes would start from next month. Even if she had to divorce after a year of marriage, she needed to have sufficient savings so that she could move out once the divorce happens. It was very much obvious that she couldn't stay here after that. After lot of thinking, she decided to take a part time job & would earn for herself. She would manage studies & job alternatively. At least by the end of the year, she would have enough to feed herself & stay in a girl's hostel.

After deciding about how she would live her life after divorce, she came to a final decision. That night after dinner, she knocked at his door & gave her reply. She was ready for whatever conditions he had placed before her.

FLASHBACK ENDS...

"Kaisi shart?", Nanu asked hesitantly. Sameer looked at him & smiled, "Nanu... dekhiye aapki abhi tabiyat itni bhi acchi nahi hai ki hum shaadi dhum dhaam se kar sake. Abhi aapko koi stress ya tensions nahi lene chahiye. Isliye humne decide kiya hai ki hum court marriage kar lenge abhi. Fir jab aap ekdum thik ho jaayenge pehle jaise, tab hum dhum dhaam se fir se shaadi kar lenge. Toh meri yahi shart hai ki hum abhi court marriage karenge. Jyada bhid bhaad nahi chahiye abhi Nanu."

Nanu looked at her, "Naina... Tum iss ke liye taiyaar ho?" She nodded with a smile, "Haann Nanaji... Isme kuch galat nahi hai. Aap jaisa chahte the waisa toh ho hi raha hai, hum shaadi kar rahe hai. Aapka aur Nanaji ka vaada bhi poora ho jaayega. Fir toh koi tension nahi na. Vaada shaadi ka tha, fir wohh kaise bhi ho, usse kya farak padta hai. Hum shaadi ke bandhan mein toh bandh hi jaayenge na."

Even if she said all that with a smile, only she knew what would happen once he was fine as before. She had killed all her dreams that she wanted for her marriage as it didn't seem important to her anymore. She knew she won't get happiness from this marriage. She was doing it only for Nanaji's sake.

Nanu could see that something was wrong but he couldn't pinpoint anything. Something was there before his eyes, but he wasn't able to see it clearly. But nonetheless, he was happy that finally both of them agreed for marriage. That was more important at that time. How the marriage was going to happen didn't matter to him at all.

"Chalo... Jaisa tum chaaho. Agar tum dono chaahte ho ki shaadi court mein ho, toh wohi sahi." His eyes misted & he spoke, "Jayanti... Hamara vaada poora hone jaa raha hai. Hamare bacche shaadi karne jaa rahe hai. Main bohot khush hun aaj. Bohot bohot khush. Arey Ramdhari... Kuch meetha toh laa. Itni acchi khushkhabri ke baad thoda meetha toh banta hi hai na."

He fed the gajar halwa that was prepared that day to Sameer & Naina & took them in a hug, blessing them wholeheartedly. Ramdhari too was ecstatic after hearing the marriage thing.

That night all the three couldn't sleep as each of them felt differently about the marriage. Nanu was happy that finally his grandson was ready to marry while his grandson was preparing a list of what should be included in the prenuptial agreement. The scene in Naina's room was altogether different.

She was sitting on her bed with her diary,

Hiii Diary...

Sorry bohot dino se tumse baat nahi kar paayi. Khair chodo... Main aaj jo kehne jaa rahi hun yeh baat sirf hamare beech hi rehni chaiye huh. Samjhi...

Aaj humne hamari shaadi ka faisla finally Nanaji ko bataa hi diya. Arey tum nahi jaanti hum ka matlab. Hum matlan main aur Sameer. Tumhe bataaya toh tha ki hamare dono ke Nanaji ne ek dusre se hamari shaadi ka vaada kiya tha. Bas aaj humne uska faisla le liye.

Hamari shaadi court mein hogi. Aur usse pehle mujhe ek prenuptial agreement sign karna hoga. Pataa nahi kya kya conditions honge usme. Khair chodo mujhe usse koi farak nahi padta. Jab Nanaji thik ho jaayenge na poori tarah, uske baad hamara divorce ho jaayega. Hum alag ho jaayenge.

Pataa nahi iss baat se mujhe itna kyun farak padd raha hai. Tum jaanti ho mere bhi sab ladkiyon ki tarah shaadi ke sapne the. Haldi, mehendi, sangeet, yeh sab rasmein dhum dhaam se manana chahti thi. Mera dulha safed ghodi pe sawaar hokar mujhe lene aayega. Mera pati mujhse bohot pyaar karega, meri bohot izzat karega, mujhe bohot khush rakhega, meri har khwaaish poori karega. Kitne saare sapne the mere.

Par main bhool gayi ki sab ke sapne poore nahi hote aur khaas kar mere toh kabhi nahi. Mera koi apna hai hi nahi jisse main yeh sab bataa paaun, isliye tumhe sab bataa rahi hun. Bas ek sapna hai jo main poora zaroor karungi. Main meri padhai poori kar ek acchi si job karungi, jisse main khud ka kharcha toh nikaal sakun.

Divorce ke baad mujhe yeh ghar chod kar jaana hoga. Yeh shaadi bhale hi ek majboori hai hamare liye, par isse jyada main khud ko majboor nahi kar paaungi, aur nahi tod sakti apna dil. Nanaji thik ho jaayenge toh main bhi nishchint hokar iss ghar se jaa paungi.

Aur Sameer... Unhe bhi koi aisi ladki mil jaayegi jisse wohh pyaar karenge aur uske saath khush rahenge. Jo unke status ki ho, khoobsurat ho, jiske saath unki jodi acchi lage.

Chalo... Ab main so jaati hun. Bohot neend aa rahi hai.

Byee... Waapis jald milenge... Goodnight Diary...

She kept her diary away & cried her heart out, hiding her face in the pillow. Her life was going to change in few days. She had given up on happiness as she was sure that she was not destined to be happy. She didn't know when she drifted to sleep while crying, cursing her destiny all the while.

She didn't know what the future would bring in her life, yet she was ready to embrace it happily.
