Chapter 8
PART 7
Sharon hung up the phone cursing Swayam not understanding that she is indeed happy to be getting married to him.
Sharon: Taani could know that I'm happy ..and ek Swayam hai...Idiot jaanta bhi nahi mein kya feel karthi hoon
Sharon's Mom: Sharon(shocked)
Sharon: hm...
Sharon's Mom: Don't you love him??
Sharon:(uncomfortable) Yeah.I do.Why are you asking??
Sharon's Mom:(even more shocked) my...oh..so modern daughter is scolding her to be husband??
Sharon: ha tohh?(as if only she had the right to scold Swayam)
Sharon's Mom: You are crazy?? No wonder your dad's so called modern values rubbed off on you.(irritated)
Sharon:(angry) Mom aap...ye kya bol rahi hai?
Sharon's Mom: Come here.Sit with me.
Sharon: Ok!! Fine..(still angry)
Sharon's Mom: Sharon...You know in any relationship respect is very important.You know the secret behind mine and your dad's successful relationship is because of the respect we have for each other...You have to understand this.You aren't a school going girl who can't understand what relationship is
Sharon: Parr Mom I have always been the same ...He knows me..
Sharon's Mom:(angry) Stop it Sharon...Don't tell me about the times you spent with him..You also know the reason why your relationship didn't work out.It's because of your anger and ego.
Sharon:(shocked) Mom aap ...Can't believe you are blaming me for our relationship which didn't work out earlier
Sharon's Mom: Ok.I agree that I don't know what went wrong but don't you think you have share in that.Are you sure you gave all your self in making that relation work??
Sharon:(sad) Mom ..relationship kabhi tha hi nahi..he confessed..I rejected.I've been hiding my feelings ..thats it
Sharon's Mom: Thats what..First step in making any relationship successful is to have respect for your partner's feelings...
Sharon: Mom ..I've been always been like this...
Sharon's Mom:(interrupting) Nahi...You have changed Sharon..pehle bahut gussa aatha tha tumhe..ab dekho...you are more clam.Aren't you?
Sharon: Yeah..(a little angry that her mom is giving her gyaan)
Sharon's Mom:(caressing Sharon's cheek)All I care is your happiness.You don't have any idea how difficult it is to bring up a child.I gave up my career to take care of you.You think I liked passing time at home holding an MBA from the most reputed university.Relationship stays healthy with so many sacrifices.Not that I'm regretting my decision to give my career.Had I not taken that decision I wouldn't have been able to raise an angel as my daughter.
Sharon:(almost in tears)Maa(hugging her)
Sharon's Mom:Don't cry.Cry baby(teasing her)
Sharon:Mom(angry)
Sharon's Mom:(breaking the hug) Acha Can I ask you something??
Sharon: Yeah(wiping her tears)
Sharon'Mom: I always thought you were expressive.Why didn't express your feelings to him??
Sharon: pata nahi Mom.I'm almost dead when he's around.
Sharon's Mom:(teasing) Look who's scared to confess.One who has rejected hundreds of guys is scared of rejection.
Sharon:(says confidently) I'm not scared of rejection because he will never reject me
Sharon's Mom:Tek hai..remember respect...hm???
Sharon: Yeah.
Sharon's Mom:(says leaving the room) Good.
Swayam on the other day decided not to disturb Sharon and decided to call her in the morning.
Next morning
Sharon's was more clear how to treat Swayam.Nothing in this world could have her mouth shut but for Swayam.She was expressive.She turned succinct when asked about Swayam.Expecting that she'd apply all the gyaan she received from her mom got into the car.Right when she was about to drive received a call.
Sharon:Hello
Swayam: Hii Sharon.Can I talk to you now??(hesitant)
Sharon: Yeah.Sure.
Swayam:Tumhe pata hai na...that Rey is busy with some other work.So he wouldn't be able to come today.So you have some extra work to do.Hope I'm not spoiling any of your evening plans???
Sharon: No.You aren't.Dont worry.Acha tuuu(struck at tum remembering her mom's gyaan about respect)
Swayam: What Sharon? Tuu what??
Sharon:(decided that she had to face one day why not today)Nahiii Swayam AAP tension math lo...I will handle everything
Swayam:(almost dead) Sharon tum tek tho ho??
Sharon: Haa Swayam kyun??
Swayam: Kya maine galat suna ?? Kya tumne abhi mujhe aap kaha?(scared)
Sharon: Haa Swayam..kyun mein aap nahi keh sakti(confused)
Swayam:(in manju mode) Tum mujhe jo chahe woh keh sakti hoon
Sharon:(sensing that Swayam is getting back to his real self)Hm..tek hai I will see you in school.Bye
Swayam:(softly) Bye
Sharon:Bye(blushing)
Swayam:(after hanging up the call to himself I'm damn sure she's taking marriage counselling pakka...)
Sharon was surprised that she actually called Swayam aap.She wasn't the one who'd believe in the old Indian ways of showing respect to husband.She grew up listening to her mom who addressed her dad as aap.She got into the car enjoying the feeling of surprise.Also Swayam sounding so soft and romantic after years added to the surprise element.Awkwardness at its best accompanied with happiness.Was a rare combination.Wasn't completely unknown to her. This was the feeling she had all the times when they both were alone in rehearsal hall.
Swayam reckoned this as one of best moments of his life.It never mattered to him the way she addressed him.The mere fact that she was trying to show him respect was all enough to celebrate.Swayam excitedly got into car sure to have wonderful drive to school.He played his favorite song and also which suited his life.
Sharon parked the car and started walking when she heard her name.She turned and saw Swayam walking towards her.Already being diffident about self the day's start added to her nervousness.
Swayam:(smiling) Hiii
Sharon:(blushing) Hii
Swayam:toh ready ho aaj extra work ke liye..
Sharon: Yeah.All ready.
Swayam:(trying to make her talk in hindi more so that she'd again call him aap)Ha...ready kyun nahi hogi..aaj kuch zyada hi acha mood hai tumhara..
Sharon: Nothing like that.Just normal(trying hard not to speak in hindi)
Swayam:(to himself...common Sharon ek aur baar aap kaho...which guy wouldn't like when his girl gives him respect) hm...bahut tension hai Sharon aaj kuch zyada hi work pending hai(knowing that she would react soon if she knew he was tensed)
Sharon:(sad) Swayam aap tension math lo...(realizing what she said) I mean don't be tensed
Swayam:(trying hard not to smile) Yeah.Yeah
Soon they reached the entrance of the school.
PRECAP:
Sharon: Swayam aap...
Entire gang: Kyaaa(loudly)
After some time
Nilesh:(smiling)Swayam(shouting as Swayam was leaving) tere bag mein ek note raka hai ..dekh lena
Swayam:(not paying much attention)ha tek hai tek hai..
Later
Swayam: Sharon come I will drop you..
Sharon: Nahi woh..actually I got my car
Swayam: oh..but you can leave it there..I drop you
Sharon: kal subah??(expecting him to offer her a lift the next morning)
Swayam: hm..I will pick you up in the morning
At home Swayam opens the note which is folded.He finds a red rose in the folded note.The note read:
To the most handsome guy I've ever known..this is for you.
Keep smiling
Your love.
Swayam:(angry) Yeh Nil...simmi bas naam ke liye GF hai...hum sab guys ke saath dostana karna chahta hai ..dekhlunga kal usse
Your reaction
Nice
Awesome
Loved
LOL
OMG
Cry
