I m here friends...😊
  I hope you remember 'Koyal'.
The girl that had met Kareena in the fields, in the chapter 'Tu hi sukoon..!"
   Sooo, be ready to say goodbye to Aanchalpur...😊😊

    About an hour later, Santu , Cheeta , Billu , Vyom n Anubhav were enjoying in the sugarcane fields, along with Poonam , Payal n Chandan..., remincing all the beautiful moments spent there...

    A little far away from them, Kareena were walking on the trails, soaking in the sweetness of the sugarcane fields absorbed in the  atmosphere...!!

  They had chosen to wear shalwaar kameez, as it was their last day in Aanchalpur...
  They were heading towards a particular destination.., n few minutes later it was before their eyes...

     In front of the hut , Koyal was busy chasing her mischievous pet Monu , who was making her run in the entire field....
    Just like their last meet, in an attempt to catch her little rabbit, she bumped into Haseena...

  Koyal : Sorry sorry!!

    She apologized and then raised her head to see who was it....

Koyal: Didi !! Aap log???!!

   The cute little smartie recognised them instantly...

Koyal: Didi !! Aap....!!!
Aap ko.......
  Aaj..... Aaj wahaan...
Veer Mahal mein.... Main ne...
Maa baba se....  Aap ne.... Aap police.....

   
    In enthusiasm n excitement, her words couldn't form a sensible sentence...

     
KS: Arey Arey!! Shaant shaant koyal...!!

    KS smiled bending towards her...
   Koyal was overwhelmed...

Koyal: Didi!! Aap ko mera naam yaad hai??!!!

     She almost jumped in joy...

HM: Bilkul!! Tumhein kaese bhool sakte hain..??

    HM raised her chin lovingly..
Koyal smiled wholeheartedly...

KS: Apne maa baba se nahi milwaaogi humein....??

    KS asked, lifting her up in her arms...

Koyal: Kyun nahi??
Chaliye na....

    She gestured towards her house..., n Kareena walked towards it, while Monu who was running away till now, started following them....

    They entered the hut, n Karishma let her down on the floor...
  There eyes were busy observing in all four directions...

        The hut consisted of only one room..., small yet clean n well organized.

    In one corner, stew was there along with as few appliances as possible for a kitchen...
   Koyal's mother, dressed in a simple saree, taking its pallu on her head partially, was sitting there, adding water to flour...
  
   Along the opposite wall, there was a single bed, which was only bed in the room.
On the bed an old lady was sleeping, covered by a blanket which was torn n worn out at places....
   She was probably koyal's grandmother.

     Koyal's father was sitting by her side, pressing her legs...

    Koyal ran towards him, n cling to his legs...

Koyal: Baba!! Baba!!
dekhiye kaun aaya hai....??

     She was trying her best to  keep her enthusiasm under control, as her dadi was sleeping....

    Listening to her, both the parents noticed Kareena, n stood up instantly....

  KS: Shaant! Shaant!
Ghabraaiyye mat....
   Baat ye hai ke aap ke aangan ki jo ye Koyal hai na, ye humaari dost hai....💕

    Karishma introduced, smiling at koyal...

Koyal: Baba! Aaj Veer Mahal mein main ne kaha tha na aap se, ke main inse mil chuki hun..., par aap ne meri baat hi nahi suni....

    She said with a cute pout...
KS n HM chuckled.

HM: Aap...aap ka naam??

  " Ji! Main hun Aalok, or ye Meena, meri patni...
   Aap log... aaiyye na, baithiye.."
  
    Aalok said taking a few steps towards them...

KS:Ji nahi! Hum...rukenge nahi...
   Hum bas milne aaye the aap sab se....

    KS refused politely...

HM: Aalok ji! Meena ji!
Aap ne apni beti ki bahot achhi tarbiyat ki hai....
Chhoti si umr mein hi wo bahot samajhdaar hai...

   
     Aalok n Meena smiled, overwhelmed. What else makes parents happier than hearing praises about their children??😊

    Aalok caressed koyal 's hairs, who was still clinging to his leg...

Aalok: Ye to mere aangan ki Koyal hai...!!
  Isi se to Raunaq hai mere ghar ki...
   Isi se to juda hai mera har sapna...

      His eyes moistened, as he kissed her head...

Aalok: Bahot achhi shiksha dilaaunga main apni Koyal ko..
Ye badi ho kar humara naam raushan karegi..!!

      Pride n ambition could be seen in his eyes clearly...
  Kareena smiled at each other...

KS: Bahot achha laga ye sun kar...

     Meena brought water for them...

Meena: Aap log rukiye na...
Kam se kam Chai to pee kar jaaiyye...

      She insisted..

KS: Ji nahi dhanyawaad!!
  Hum chai nahi pee sakte...🙄

   She replied, glaring at HM , as the sugar-ban wasn't yet over...

Meena: jii??
    She asked in confusion.
HM smiled inwardly...

HM: Inke...kehne ka matlab hai ke....hum chai nahi peete...
   Shukriya!! 😏😏

   She gestured KS, who nodded n took out a cheque from her hand bag...

KS: Ye aap ke liye , humaari taraf se....

    She forwarded it to Aalok...
Aalok had a glance at it, n replied...

Aalok: Dhanyawaad!
Lekin, hum ye nahi le sakte...
  Hum ghareeb zaroor hain, magar swaabhimaani hain..., or swaawlanbi bhi.....

      He softly refused to accept it...

HM: Aap ghalat samajh rahe hain....
   Ye madad nahi hai..,  Tohfa hai...!

    Haseena insisted...

Meena : Maddam Dhanyawaad aap ka ke aap ne itna socha...
   Par humein ye nahi chahiye..., Aap se vinti hai, aagrah mat kijiye....
 
      Meena joined her hands..

KS: Lekin....

HM: Karishma Singh....

   She tried to say something but HM interrupted...

HM: Aalok ji! Hum aap ki khuddaari ki bahot izzat karte hain...
   Par ye tohfa hai...
Agar aap qubool kar lenge to humein bahot Khushi hogi...
     Please Meena ji...!

   HM requested. The couple looked at each other for a while.., n then accepted it finally...

 
Aalok: Dhanyawaad madam!!

    He thanked , n Kareena smiled...
   HM knelt down to koyal's level...

HM: Aur ye humaari Koyal ke liye....

     She removed her bracelet from her pocket..., the same which had caught koyal's eyes in their first meet...!

        Koyal was overwhelmed to see it, but she turned to look at her father for his consent...!
   HM smiled at this act of obedience...

HM: Ye to humaari nanhi dost ke liye hai..
   Aalok ji! Iske liye aap na nahi keh sakte...

   Aalok smiled n gestured her to accept it...

HM tied it around her wrist...

Koyal: Thankyou didi!!

    She embraced her joyfully...
HM reciprocated it, n caressed her hairs...
   KS, too, sat down to her level..

KS: Koyal..!
   Beta khoob mehnat karna..., aur apne Baba ka sapna pura karna..., karogi na..??

    Koyal nodded with a bright smile...

Koyal: Zaroor karungi.. Promise!!

    KS smiled wholeheartedly, n hugged her...💕

_________________________________

     The evening passed, n so did the night..., recalling n remincing the happy, sorrowful as well as dreadful experiences of the period of 'a week less than 2 months' , spent in Aanchalpur...

    The morning of departure arrived.....!!!

    It was 7:00 AM. They all were standing at the gate of Vijay's house, dressed in their uniforms, with silent lips n hearts filled with mixed emotions..., gluing their eyes to the beautiful house, that had been a home to them for so long...

     Vijay's family was standing there to bid farewell...

    Anubhav Singh placed his hand on Vijay's shoulder ..

  AS: Achha Vijay!!
   Chalte hain....

    " Arey aese kaese chalte hain...??"

     Champa arrived with a big thaal (plate) of sweets...

Bela: Mun meetha kiye bina thodi jaane denge aap ko...

    Bela started shoving sweets in their mouths, one by one....

  Billu: Bela ji! Main ek aur le sakta hun..??

  Bela: Arey chaar aur lijiye...

    Champa forwarded the thaal to him, n he instantly picked up 4 pieces ignoring the glares of his team...

     As Bela came towards Karishma, Haseena blocked her way extending her arm...

HM: Nahi Maa ji! Wo nahi khaa saktein....
   Ye un ke liye theek nahi hai abhi....

     KS glared at HM with a cute childish anger in her eyes...

KS: ek din khaane se kaa ho jaayega Maddam Sir??😒

   She whined...

HM: To kuchh din na khaane se bhi kya ho jaayega Karishma Singh...?!!
Bas ek hafta aur....

    HM said in a pacifying tone, taking her in a side hug...
  KS frowned....

Bela smiled seeing her...

Bela: Koi baat nahi Maddam!
  Jab theek ho jaayengi na to dubara aaiyye ga...
  Aap jo kahengi , u khilaayenge hum aap ko...
  Isi bahaane, phir aaiyye ga...!

    She said with all her love, which was pure...
     KS held her by shoulders...

KS: Maddam kaahein keh rahi hain Maa ji...??
   Aap ki bitiya waapas aagayi to ab hum aap ki bitiya nahi rahe...??!!

    Bela was overwhelmed to hear this loving complaint...
Holding her face in the cup of her palms, she kissed her forehead....

Bela: Kaesi baat karti ho bitiya...??
  Tum ko bitiya sirf bole nahi hain, maane bhi hain....
Jug jug jiyo bitiya!!
Sada sukhi raho!!

    She kissed her forehead again...

KS: Dhanyawaad!!

    She smiled....

  "Aur humein??"
   Santu n Haseena complained together...

  Bela smiled n kissed both of them one by one, n rewarded them with best wishes too...

    Horse carriage was  waiting for them...
  Although this time they could travel by car also, but they wanted to enjoy that blissful ride....💕

   AS addressed his team...

   AS: Chalein??

   Vijay came forward...

   Vijay: ek baar phir se bahot bahot dhanyawaad Sir!!
   Aur haan , dubaara zaroor aaiyye ga....

   
   AS smiled, n tapped his shoulder...

AS: Awashya ! Ab hum chalte hain....

    They all turned towards the horse carriage, but unknowingly their hearts were waiting for someone....

   " Team MPT! Ready for departure...?!!"

   Here came the smiling voice, grabbing everyone's attention, n bringing a smile on all the faces...

Veer: Mujh se mile bina kaese chale jaayenge aap log...??!!

   Veer n Dulaari got down from their car....

   
AS: Aaiyye!! Aap hi ki pratiksha ho rahi thi....

     AS said sarcastically....
Dulaari ran n hugged Santu tightly..., n then hugged Karishma, Haseena n Pushpa ji  one by one....

Veer came towards Anubhav Singh, with calm expressions but smiling eyes....

Veer: Thankyou very much Sir!!
Mujh par trust karne ke liye...
  Ek criminal ka beta achha insaan ho sakta hai..., is par to shaayed duniya phir bhi vishwaas kar le..., magar wo apne baap ke khilaaf jang mein shaamil ho sakta hai, is par qaanoon ke rakhwale kahaan vishwaas karte hain...??!!

    His eyes were reflecting respect n gratitude...
AS placed his hand on his shoulder...

AS: Veer!
  Apne charitra ki pehchaan insaan khud paida karta hai...
  Hum ne aap par andhaa vishwaas nahi kiya..., Aap ne apne karmon se humara vishwaas jeeta hai...!!

  He was speaking in low , soft but meaningful voice.
   Veer smiled.., n then moved towards Kareena....

  Veer: Rishtey to mere paas pehle hi thode se the Maddam!
   Un mein se kuchh chhod kar chale gaye , or kuchh bewafa nikley....!
     Socha nahi tha ke zindagi, ek saath..., itne rishtey dedegi..., aap logon ke roop mein...

      Naughty n Jolly Veer who would hardly get serious, was expressing his emotions deeply...

Kareena smiled...

KS: Jab pehli baar mile the, to hum par bandook taan di thi tumne....
    
     She started with a soft giggle...

KS: aur phir wo din bhi aaya, jab humaare liye apne pita par bandook taan di....

   She smiled with moist eyes.

HM: Hum miss karenge tumhe Veer!!

   She said wrapping one arm around KS's shoulders...

Veer: Main iska mauka nahi dunga aap ko...
   Bhool rahi hain aap, ke aap hi ke sheher ka niwaasi hun...!
Kisi bhi waqt tapak padunga MPT mein...
  Mujh se peechha nahi chhootne wala aap logon ka...😉

    He was back to himself...

KS: Haa zaroor aana...
Waese bhi bahot ichha hai humara tum ko do chaar din lock-up mein rakhne ka....

   She was back to herself too...😉
  Veer sighed...

Veer: Maddam! Qusoor bataaye bina saza sunaati hain, or aese sunaati hain ke banda apna qusoor puchhne ki himmat bhi na kar paaye....
    Haseena Maddam! Salute hai aap ko..., kaese jhelti hain in ko??

       He said in most innocent tone, yet naughty eyes....

    KS pulled his ear...

KS: 'Kaese jhelti hain??'
Humse puchho na, hum bataate hain tum ko....

      She reprimanded, ignoring his pleas to leave his innocent ear....

Veer: aah!! Oo!!! Ouch!!
  Sorry!!! Sorry!!! Maddam Sorry!!!!
   Aahh....!!

   Vyom Singh came for the rescue...., n finally KS left his ear....
    He started pressing it with his palm, gazing at KS innocently....
    
   HM changed the topic...

HM: waese Veer! Tum kab aa rahe ho Lucknow...??
 
Veer: Shaayed next week Maddam!
   Jo wakeel 'Baldev Singh' ka case prosecute karne wale hain, wo mere teacher hain or mentor bhi....
   Unhone mujhe promise kiya hai ke wo mujhe is case mein unhe assist karne denge....
   To bas, usi ke liye kuchh materials collect karne hain...
   Isi maqsad se to chose kia tha law ke field ko.....

    His voice was low but determined....

   There was silence for sometime, which was broken by PJ....

  PJ: Lucknow aana to humaare ghar zaroor aana Veer!
  Aur Dulaari ko le kar aana....

     Veer: Zaroor Pushpee...!

  He replied with a smile...
PJ moved closer, n held his face in her palms...

PJ: Bahot mahaan hai wo maa , jis ne tum jaese sapoot ko janm diya....
   Aur bhaagyashaali hain hum, jise tumhaari maa banne ka mauqa mila....

      She said with motherly warmth, while her eyes welled up...
    Veer smiled, n held her hand with respect....

Veer: Bhaagyashaali to main hun, jise aap jaesi maa mili...

     PJ smiled n prayed for his happiness n well being...

PJ: Aur haan! Agli baar jab hum aayen, to humaara swaagat karne ke liye humaari bahu maujood honi chahiye....
    
     PJ came to the point, keeping it as light as possible....
   Veer stayed quiet...., but innocent Santu spoke...

SS: Matlab PJ! Agli baar jab aap aayengi, to aap ke aane se pehle Karishma Maddam ko yahaan aa kar aap ka swagat karna hoga...

CC: uff.....ye masoomiyat!!
  Santu ji.....

   KS glared at both of them.
Seeing Veer silent, HM went close to him....

HM: Veer ! Koi bhi insaan zindagi ka hissa hota hai, puri zindagi nahi....!!

    Veer who was standing with lowered gaze, nodded slightly, composed himself within a fraction of a minute, n raised his head with his lively smile...!

  Veer: Main to ye soch raha tha Maddam, ke Pushpa ji do do bahuwein kaese handle karengi..., ek to sambhaali nahi Jaati.....

     Haseena chuckled...
As usual, he lightened the atmosphere in a moment .
His jolly smile flashed equally in his hazel brown eyes...

PJ: Humein kaese sambhalna hai, wo hum dekh lenge!!
  Tum zara zabaan sambhaalo..., bahot chal rahi hai aaj...

    She pulled his ear...

Veer: Aaahhh...! Yaar aap saas bahu mere kaan ke peechhe kyun padi ho...
   Oouch!! Pushpee plz....
Dekhiye Karishma Maddam already mere kaan ko apni bike ki chaabi samajh kar ghuma chuki hain...
  Agar thoda or kheencha to bechara ukhad jaayega....
   Plz.......

  Everyone was laughing seeing his situation...

     Few minutes later, Veer went towards his car, n brought the gifts he had bought for them...

   There were silver anklets for Karishma, Santu, haseena n Pushpa ji....
   AS, Billu , cheeta n vyom singh recieved branded wristwatches....

      Moments later, they all had boarded the carriage....

   Vijay: Phir zaroor aaiyyega....
Intezaar rahega....

    He said with a smile, n then looked at Veer...
  Something transpired between them, n then Veer n Vijay together saluted them....!

   Team MPT smiled wholeheartedly...

    Veer n Vijay didn't change their position, until the carriage disappeared from their eyes...

   Team MPT turned their gazes towards the large , vast, swaying fields of sugarcane..., who were waving goodbye to them....!!💕

    I m impatiently waiting for your precious response..
  Friends!
   'Veer' was a character which was shaped by me totally, n I wasn't sure if you will like it...
  But the response I got for it, was really immense...💕
Thankyou so much for giving him so much love n admiration...😊😊
   And yes, I'll be back with the next part soon.., the series will continue 😊
