RECAP

"Arrey Siva, tu Kabse mujhse puchke kamre mein aane laga?" Suman enquired Shiva, "Nhi maa, woh ... mujhe...mera matlab , tujhse kuch" Suman nodded , "Woh maa, tujhse puchna tha kuch." Shiva was looking down while asking. "Pehe tu idhar aa beith mere paas" She patted the space beside her bed . Shiva sat near her . "Ab aisa kya puchna ai tujhe, jise kehne mein tu apni maa se jhijhak raha hai?"

"Maa woh........"

....

"Maa woh.... Raavi ke...Woh" "Haa beta , Raavi kya??" Suman became a little bit tensed as what thing regarding Raavi was making him so hesitant to even talk about.

"Maa , woh Raavi ke Maa - Papa Yaani... ki Ravish kaka aur Prakriti kaki ki Maut ... Ka..Kaise hui thi?" Shiva asked the question finally mustering all the courage he had ; eyes closed shut, head low ; coz never in the entire Somnath anyone talked about this, Not even His Maami or mom themselves. It was a pact to never tell Raavi about the past happenings as she was too small the day the unfortunate events took place. He even didn't want but after hearing Raavi terribly longing for her parents and the worst call herself the reason of their untimely unfortunate death and on top of that when he heard his 'TOXICITY KI DUKAAN' Maami telling her about that, breaking the age old pact, even he decided to go to the root cause now!

Suman was shocked, or confused not actually she even can't formulate herself the current reaction she was giving. Thousand questions evoking in her head, Why? why all of a sudden out of the blue moon her son was asking about the cause of death of his wife's parents?? She sighed , took a deap breath and then asked "Kyun?? yeh baat aise achaanak??

Shiva knew if he asked this directly also he won't be getting a direct answer, well he needed to prepare himself for follow ups.. "Maa , woh ,,," He fumbled again and Suman was actually irritated . Why Her Chattan jaisa bulldozer shareer ka beta always fumbles while asking something serious like that? Actually she realised he was not before like this but when a certain girl named 'Raavi' entered in his life as his wife and of course as his love, he became a bit sensitive for her .

Well becoming a petticoat chaap in this sense is good.

"Kuch hua hai kya Siva, jo mujhe pata hona chahiye?? Tu toh jaanta hi hai na . Ravish Bhai aur Prakriti ka accident hua tha" Shiva nodded positively. "Toh aur kya janna hai tujhe?" "Woh accident hua tha sab jaante hai, Pan" Shiva held Suman's hands & Suman could feel his palm sweating. She kept her other hand on his hands and said "Pan, kya beta?"

"Pan accident ki wajah kya thi, Matlab accident hua kaise tha??" Suman took her hand off and corrected her pallu, Shiva too looked into her eyes , his eyes asking for answers of that day.

Suman sighed and asked Shiva "Woh udhar Almirah ke upar dekh" Shiva looked above the Almirah noticing a small trunk. "Usko utha ke le aa" .

Shiva was confused but then he went and brought the trunk which Suman asked for . She took out the key bunch , which always hung on her hips Gloryfying the honour of Mahasaas she is. She picked one of the keys from the bunch and took it out from it. "Yeh le, aur khol isko " 

Shiva took the key and unlocked the trunk. There laid many old things starting from small clothes to many reels in negative not even converted. When he digged more inside he found an album. 

Strange! he knows & even looked to the pictures of all the Albums in their house , then what is this album , which he didn't know about? May be he left this particular one, curiosity aroused in his mind and he took the album . 

He turned the first page of the album to find a Retro picture of Mama & Mami's wedding. Though he didnt liked the fact of watching pictures of Mami but , his Mama was looking quite handsome on his wedding day, nice! 

He flipped another page and Found the picture of His Parents blessing Mama & Mami . 'Papa' he gasped looking at his fathers this old picture. Tears made its way, he ran his fingers on his fathers picture. He flipped and found more pictures, One picture was so cute. A baby of approx 1 or 1.5 years sitting on Mami's lap & her expressions were enough to say she wasn't comfortable at all. He chuckled watching them.

"Gaumbi hai yeh. Ulti ki thi usne shaadi waale din , usko godh mein uthaane se ulti ki baas aa rhi thi, isiliye uss Kaagdi ki shakal aisi bani hui hai." Shiva smirked followed by a chuckle hearing that. Suman too laughed.

He turned few more photos, some photos almost lost their colour. Then he came across one photo of a Young girl standing between Jagat & Prafulla hugging Prafulla. He was about to turn the page when Suman interrupt 

"Puchega nhi kaun hai woh ladki?" Shiva looked confused and asked "Kaun hai??" Suman corrected her pallu & pointed a finger towards the Young girl "Tere Mami ki behen ki beti Ki maa" He was again confused but then registered and made an 'ok I got it face' ,
"Matlab Prakriti kaki?" Suman nodded in a yes. 

Shiva now carefully looked the picture , He never actually saw Prakriti or Ravish. He just knew their names. "Maa" Shiva stopped & Suman hummed. "Kya Raavi ne kabhi yeh tasveere dekhi hongi? Kyunki meine, Krish aur Dev ne toh sirf naam hi suna hai, kabhi dekha nhi tha" Suman knew this question will arise in his minds. 

"Nahi, shayad Prafulla ne naa dikhayi ho, Pan mein daave se nhi keh sakti." Shiva looked to the photo again and noticed how similar Prakriti Kaki & Raavi looked. Their body structure, The face cutting, The eyes. If it wasn't a retro style photo then he could surely distinguish more.

"Woh Markundi gayi, bahut had tak Prakriti jaisi dikhti hai, Prakriti ke bhi gaal ke paas aise til the. Ekdum gori si thi, bahut Sundar aur masoom ladki thi. Ekdum komal thi, jaise teri Chipkali hai. Prafulla se bahut pyaar karti thi, Mein jaanti thi Prafulla shuru se laalchi hai pan bhai ke Kushi ke saamne jhookna para tha. Lekin Prakriti uske toh naam mein hi saari sundarta basti hai. Jaisa naam waisa Kaam. Bilkul bhi Prafulla jaisi nahi thi! Bahut saaf dil ki thi."

Hearing those words Shiva felt a sort of guilt . All these years he associated Raavi with Mami , But deep down she wasn't even an ounce like her! Pure soul Just like her Mother Prakriti. No wonder why she was named Raavi. Raavi was a connect to nature which connected her with her mother.

The curiosity to turn up the pages to look inside the past aroused. He flipped more pages & saw many beautiful & happy faces. The wedding pictures were over; now some random pictures were coming .He came across one Photo and became confused . Like a small child who watches new thing with enormous questions & nudges those to their parents asked Suman , "Maa yeh kaun hai, aapke aur papa ke saath hai dono?"

Suman saw the picture & her face paled. Shiva saw the changing expressions & asked her "Maa bolna?" Suman took the album and showed him pointing "yeh jo baccha hai yeh Gaumbi hai, woh Hardik", Shiva smiled watching so small Gautam & Hardik. "yeh dono itne pehle se dost hai?" Suman smiled & nodded in yes. "Yeh Dheeraj bhai hai aur yeh, Shanti." Shiva knew about Dheeraj "Ohh achaa Dheeraj kaka , Bhabhi ke papa pan maa yeh aurat? This name Shanti he heard for the first time ! He became more confused "Mujhe pehchaan mein nhi aayi maa!"

Suman said "yeh bhagodi hai......Dhara ki maa"
