Vineet's home

Vineet and Ruhana reached home. It was pitch dark and Ruhana asked Vineet if Angel was home or not. He said that she might be sleeping in her room. He moved to his sister's room when she nudged him not to move in without permission, he didn't pay heed to her and barged in the room. The room was dark, and he switched on the lights, while calling Angel's name.

He switched on the lights and was shocked to see the scenario in front of him. Ruhana was shocked too.

"Sachin!! What are you doing here?" she asked.

They hadn't imagine this yet. Vineet was still rooted at his place. Here, his sister was with some guy, that too, in a set that he hadn't imagined. Sachin and Angel were sleeping together, Angel had her head placed on his chest. He had one hand wrapped around her and one hand on her hand on his chest.  They were sleeping soundly unaware of the surroundings. Maybe, this was the aura of love, they had knitted around themselves. Vineet was shocked to see them. He couldn’t speak for some good seconds. And then suddenly, he shouted Angel’s name.

Both Angel and Sachin woke up to the loud sound and were shocked to find her brother there. She had always been scared of him, and this time, she was in their house with a guy unknown to her brother.  Her voice got stuck in her throat ..

“Bhaii!! Aap…” she spoke scaredly.

“And what are you doing here??” Ruhana eyed sachin.

Both Sachin and Angel weren’t finding words to reply.

“Kya ho raha tha yahan? Aur ye kaun hai?” Vineet asked Angel while pointing towards Sachin.

“Wo , bhai, ye sachin hai. Hum...hum bangalore mein mile they.” Angel replied.

“ Oh, toh ye raat ke 10 baje hamare ghar mein kya kar raha hai? Wo bhi tere kamre mein? Ye sab sikhaya maine tujhe?” Vineet shouted at his sister.

Angel and Sachin exchanged glances. Vineet noted it..

“Usko kya dekh rahi hai Angel? Mere sawal ka jawab de? What is he doing here? Gimme an answer.” he demanded.

Angel looked at him fearfully. .

.” Bhai, wo main….main sachin se pyar karti hoon. Wo mujhse milne aaya tha.” she replied slowly.

“Pyar?? Really Angel? Tujhe matlab bhi pata hai, aur ye kya kar baithi tu?”he shouted.

“ Bhai samajhne ki koshish karo.” Angel said tearily.

“Han vineet, we can talk and sort the things.” Sachin spoke.

“Kya sort karoge han? Bina jaane mere ghar tak aa gaye, meri behen ke itna kareeb chale gaye….wo toh bachi hai, par tum toh samajhdar ho. Lekin tumne wahi kiya jo usne kiya.” Vineet said angrily.

Sachin looked at him…

” I love her. Aur pyar mein sahi galat nahi dekha jata. Hame jo sahi lagta hai, wo humne kiya.” Sachin replied.

His reply angered Vineet. He hadn’t expected to find his sister in such a mess with a guy at his own home. No. it isn’t wrong, but he feels that it’s not right.  Angel had made relations with someone and it wasn’t right according to his brother, a typical one, as Angel says.

“Bhai, aap please samajhne ki koshish karo…sachin waisa nahi hai jaisa aap samajh rahe ho. Wo bhi mujhse pyar karta hai….” Angel pleaded  while holding his hand.

But, he was not in a mood to listen. His anger was on the  peak.

“You’ve disappointed me Angel. Maine ye sab karne ke liye tujhe bangalore bheja tha kya?? Nahi na!! Lekin tune kya kiya?? Tune ye bilkul sahi nahi kiya.” Vineet said angrily.

“ Tum toh aisi baat kar rahe ho jaise khud ne aisa kuch kiya nahi hai. “ sachin said angrily.

“Tum toh beech mein bolo hi mat. Just leave my house. Aur dobara kabhi mat aana .” Vineet said angrily and pushed him towards the door.

Angel looked at him…

” Bhai please, baat ko samajhne ki koshish karo. I love him. Please samjho na. J maine kiya agar wo sahi nahi hai, toh galat bhi nahi hai bhai.” she cried.

Vineet jerked her hand…

” Shut up Angel. Sahi galat kya hai, wo tujhe samajh nahi aa raha hai abhi tak. Tu nahi samjhegi ye sab.”” he said angrily .

Angel then held ruhana’s hand….

“Bhabhi, please bhai ko samjhao. Mujhe pata hai, aapki baat wo kabhi nahi taalenge..please. Humne kuch galat nahi kiya bhabhi, we love each other. Isme kya galat hai.” she was still crying.

Vineet, who heard that,replies out…”Ruhana, isse keh do ki isne jo kiya hai, uske liye main isey kabhi maaf nahi karunga. Aur isey yeh bhi samjha do, ki  ab yeh ghar se bahar nahi jayegi. Kahin nahi jaayegi. Isey jo chahiye wo isey mil jayega” he said angrily.

“Bhai please, aisa mat karo. “ she spoke holding his hand, but he jerked it and moved out. Angel was shocked  and she runs inside the washroom.

Ruhana was perplexed. She was trying to grasp all that happened at the moment. Her brother, Sachin, was here at Vineet’s home, with his sister, Angel. Vineet reacted weirdly and negatively, and this shocked her to the core. Ruhana moves  to Vineet’s room. The room was locked from inside. She tapped on the door…

“vineet, darwaza kholo! Mujhe tumse baat karni hai.”

After a few minutes, he opened the door. She entered inside the room  and she could feel the wetness in his eyes. He sat on the corner of his bed…she kept her hand on his shoulder.

“vineet, please shaant ho jao. Yeh itna bada matter nahi hai, jitna tum isey bana rahe ho.” she said.

He looked at her….”yeh tum kya bol rahi ho Ruhana? Angel meri behen hai, aur wo kisi ke saath!!” he paused.

Ruhana sighs. ..

“I know, jo hua galat hua. Shayad haalaat hi galat they,par yeh bhi sach hai vineet, ki wo dono ek dusre se pyar karte hain.” She said sitting beside him.

“Pyar toh main bhi tumse karta hoon, toh kya iska matlab yeh hai ki mujhe yeh jatana padega ki I love you….kya uske liye sirf kareeb aana hi zaruri hai? Is being physical that important??”  He looked at her.

She knew, he was right at his place. He was not such a person, he believed in feelings. And this is the reason they were binded together. He’d do everything to please her, and he didn’t beleive that being physical is important to show your love.

She held his hand….

“Tum sahi ho,lekin shayad unke liye wahi sahi hai, jo unhone kiya. Usko itna bada karne ki zarurat nahi hai.” She looked at him.

“ tum nahi samjhogi Ruhana. Jo main keh raha hoon, uske peeche ek kaaran hai. “ he said standing up.

She looked at him. His voice reflected pain, and she knew there must be some reason. But he can’t cage his sister for a mere reason. She walked towards him...

“toh kaaran bata do Vineet. Agar Angel tumhari behen hai, toh Sachin mera bhai hai. Aur wo waisa nahi hai, jaisa tum soch rahe ho.” She stood beside him.

He glanced at her…
“Oh…isliye tum aisa keh rahi ho ki yeh itni badi baat nahi hai…..apne bhai ke khilaf kuch sun nahi sakti na tum!!” he replied sarcastically.

She just glanced at him.

”vineet please, main aisa kuch nahi keh rahi , main bas yeh keh rahi hu ki ek baar thande dimag se sochna. Physical involvement is not a crime, okay! Unke liye wahi tareeka hai, har koi tumhari ya meri tarah nahi hota Vineet. Kisi ke liye tohfe importance rakhte hain, toh kisi ke liye apne partner ka time, toh kisi ke physical relations. Tum apne thoughts kisi pe thop nahi sakte, even if it is your sister.” Ruhana exclaimed.

“Main soch chukka hoon Ruhana. ab Angel ghar se baahar nahi jayegi. Aur haan keh dena apne bhai se, yahan aane ki bhi koi zarurat nahi hai.” he replied sternly.

She tried to convince him but he asked her to leave.  She sighed…
“Thik hai Vineet, achi tarah se soch lo…kal milte hai.”

And she left from the house, but was lost in her own reverie.

To Be Continued.

Will Vineet understand his sister's view?

What is the reason that he is hiding?

Stay tuned.
