Samridhi
I have painted my toenails blue.
Sky blue.
No light blue.
No simple blue.
I don't know what kind of blue.
" Tring tring" my phone rang.
" Hello," Tia said.
" Hii" I replied.
" So did you make any plan?" she asked excitingly.
" I paint my toenails blue"
" Nice but do you make any plan"
" No, it's sky blue"
" Ok but what plan do you make"
" No, I think it's baby blue"
" Fine but what is the plan"
" No no it's normal blue, ya it's normal blue"
" Have you gone mad? I want to know about the plan not about what nail paint you applied" she said frustratingly.
" Can't you see I'm trying to distract you" I shouted at her.
"But why?"
"Because I have not made any plan yet and my mind is also not working"
" But did not say it with quiet confidence that you will make him respect girls," she said taunting me.
" Seems like I'm overconfident"
" There is nothing new in this"
"Ummm stop taunting me and give me some idea"
" I don't have any idea," she said straight.
" Ya, why would you have any idea" I muttered.
" Did you say something?"
"No"
" Anyways today when he entered the office all-girls stared at him. You know wearing a black shirt blue denim he is quite a man" she said dreamily.
" I don't agree "
" Why?"
" Na black shirt blue jeans mard bo jo dil de varna h bekar " I said.
( no black shirt no blue jeans man who give his heart or else he is nothing)
" Wah kya baat ha ( wow) but now come to the point and tell me about the plan"
" I said already I have no plan and my mind is not working"
"Then"
" I don't know"
" Ok bye"
"Bye"
Uhmm why my khurapati mind is not working. Maybe I need peace of mind but my peace is my home ohhh how much I miss my home I swear to god I will make you pay for everything you did Abhimanyu just wait.
Let's go to the temple god will definitely give me peace of mind and ideas too.
After I get ready. I left for the temple after half an hour I reached.
I entered inside and stand in front of god praying.
" Please bhagwan (god) do everything right"
" Samridhi," someone said my name and I open my eyes.
" Naina" she is in front of me.
We both hug each other.
" What are you doing Naina?" Chachiji said angrily.
I look around and saw my whole family there.
" Come on let's go" Chachiji said pulling Naina.
" Ma," I said looking at my Ma, she has tears in her eyes.
"Ma," I said again and tears fell from her eyes.
"Did not you missed me?"
" Why are you guys angry with her when I'm not," Naina said.
" Because you are too innocent," Chachiji said.
" Mummy it's not like that" Naina said.
" Then what it is like, " my Papa asked.
" Tell me Samridhi, why you do all this?" Papa said to me.
" This is not the right place we should head home first," Chachaji said.
We left towards home after we reached everyone seated in the hall looking at me.
" So now tell me Samridhi, why did you do this?" Papa asked me.
And I chew my lip looking at Naina, asking through my eyes to help me. But she ignored me.
" Because he is not a good person," I said.
" Then why did you marry him," Chachiji said taunting me.
" I did not marry him with my consent it... It just happened" I said and everyone looks towards me with questions.
" It did not just happen it's all your plan," Chachiji said.
" Ohh for god sake Chachi listens to me it just happened means...." And I told them how Naina and Ankit go from the hotel and I disguise myself as Naina but marrying Abhimanyu was not my plan and the further story everyone knows that how wedding happened.
" Ok I get it your marriage just happened but you still don't explain why you did not want Naina to marry Abhimanyu," my Papa asked.
" Ummm voo yeh" how will I tell everyone why I don't want Abhimanyu to marry Naina.
" Because he is not good for her," I said.
" So he is good for you," Chachiji said. I know she still thought that I stole her daughter happiness.
" Because I don't want to marry him" finally Naina said something.
" But why you don't want to?" Chachaji asked her.
"Because he had a girlfriend," Naina said shocking everyone including me I mean how she utters these words in front of all even I don't have this courage.
" And she wanted to save me from a loveless marriage that's why she did all this," Naina said.
" But why did you not tell us before," Papa said.
" Because everything happens so fast and I don't have time and there is a risk too so," I said.
I remember how much effort I did for Naina to believe me. I know if I tell anyone which is obviously not possible because I don't have the courage to tell all his kale karname (sins) to anyone, first no one would believe if anyhow they believe me everyone would say that we can't do anything as our family reputation is important and after marriage, everything will go alright and they will marry off my innocent sister to that bastard.
" But how are you living with him now," my Ma asked worriedly.
" Did he love you?" Ma asked me and I look at her shockingly did she said L word which is forbidden in our home. Why is everyone is giving me shocks today?
" Say something beta (daughter) how he is treating you, is he care for you or not are you happy with him," Ma asked me again.
How I can answer these questions. How he is treating me, like a doll. Does he care for me? ya enough to left me on an isolated highway. Am I happy? with him ya I never felt so much happiness in my life I get tears in my eyes saying this please note the sarcasm.
But I can't say these things so I just smile a little.
"Meri bachi tu khush rahe bas or kya chaiye " she said to me.
( you are happy my daughter what else I want)
" Ya she why would she not be happy after ruining my daughter's life," Chachiji said.
" Ma what part of I don't want to marry Abhimanyu you don't understand, " Naina said to her Ma.
" But beta...."
" No Ma you need to understand that Samridhi is not the culprit she just tried to save me. You wanted my happiness right so accept Samridhi or else I won't talk to you" Naina said threatening her.
" Ok as my daughter wants," Chachiji said and smiled at me and I smile back.
" Ok now, can I take Samridhi upstairs now," Naina asked and everyone laughs.
As I entered my room I look around and found everything in its place just like how I arrange them. Ohh how much I miss my room and most importantly my bed.
" So everything got into its place," Naina said laying on the bed beside me.
" Ya you don't know how much I missed everything"
" Then why don't you come back"
" I can't"
" Why ohh because of why everyone will say, from when you start caring about all these things," she said now sitting on the bed facing me.
" It's not like that"
" Then"
" I don't care for anything but I care for my family you remember last time what he did I don't want more problems for my family" I sitting up in bed.
" What now?"
" Now he will suffer and I won't stop until he came and apologize to me on his knees"
"He, you know right who are you talking about he is Abhimanyu Singhania the.."
" I know, I know The Abhimanyu Singhania," I said interrupting her.
" I will take my revenge but first I will make him respect girls," I said but I still have to figure out that how will I do it.
" Respect girls did he do something to you did he raise his hand?" Naina asked worriedly.
" No"
" So did he touched you without your permission? "
"No"
" But you said that he is a womanizer he slept with anyone"
" Ya he is"
" Then why he did not touch you?"
" I don't know?"
" Maybe he did not find you appealing," she said teasing me.
" Shut up"
" What happen khawabo ki shahzadi?"
" Shut up Naina," I said to throw a pillow at her but it doesn't hit her instead it hit Ma who is entering the room.
" Ahh"
"It was her fault," Naina said pointing towards me.
" You," I said.
" Shut up both of you," Ma said and we both shut our mouths.
" And you," Ma said pulling my ear.
" Teri shadi ho gyi h ab tu yeh sab nai kar sakti " Ma said and I rolled my eyes.
( you are married now stop doing all this)
"Hey bhagwan ( my god)" Ma exclaimed.
" Now what?"
" Where are your sindoor ( vermilion) and mangalsutra ( nuptial chain)," she asked me.
" Inbox " both Naina and me laugh.
" Is this a joke to you?" Ma said. What can I say ma my whole life becomes a joke.
" You know about riti riwaj right"
" I know Ma "
" Nice now tell is everything alright between you and son-in-law," she asked me.
" Yes, Ma" I'm sorry Ma but I don't see you and Papa worried about me so I lied to you.
" Ok now go give us some privacy," Naina said to Ma.
" Ok ok I'm going," Ma said going.
" So you are happy huh?" Naina said to me.
" You know "
" So what will you do now"
" For now I have one motive and that is"
" That is"
" Make him respect girls"
" Nice"
" But how"
" That I don't know"
" Why don't you give me some idea," I asked her.
" Hmmm let me think"
" Why don't you tell him about all sacrifices, adjustments women make as a daughter, sister, wife, mother," she said.
" Hmm let's do it but I don't think he will listen," I said.
After that conversation with Naina, I come back to the mansion.
I'm currently sitting in bed watching tv and thinking how I will make conversation with him when I don't even want to see his face.
He comes out of the washroom and sits on the bed on his side opening his laptop. Ok, you can do this come on Samridhi you can do it.
"Hii" no reply that bastard you know how much it affects a girl ego to massage first. And here he ignored me offline. My ego is hurt.
" Abhimanyu," I said again.
" Yes," he said not looking at me.
" You know Abhimanyu how much women sacrifice....." And I tell him all the things Naina tell me it took me half n hour to tell all things.
" So what do you think now?"
" Abhimanyu"
" Abhimanyu" and I look in his direction but he is laying on his side so I look over but he is.
Asleep
It means he didn't listen to me at all uhhhh how much I want to strangle his neck.
"Good night," I said to myself and slept.
