It was mid afternoon. Prerna was combing Shehnaaz's hair into two plaits, after massaging her hair with oil, just like a Gaon ki chhorri.

"Prerna, ghar pe dhyan rakhna. Manne Sidharth ko khet mein khaana dene jaana se..", Iravati said.

"Thaare ko jaani ki ke jarurat se amma. Bhola ke kar raha se?", Prerna asked.

"Bhola ke bachche ka naamkaran se aaj. Toh woh uske lugaai ke maike gaya se.. Thaare pair mein patti lage se toh thaare se chalna na hoga. Kalyani ko bhej deti par usko dast (loose motions) hua se.. toh ib manne hi jaana padego..", Iravati said.

"Amma, tum rukh jao.. Sanu chali jaavegi.. Kyu Sanu?", Prerna asked Shehnaaz, who was lost in her thoughts.

"Huh? Main?", Shehnaaz asked. She had been ignoring Sidharth from past few days. How could she possibly go to deliver his lunch.

"Haan, amma ke guttno mein dard se.. "Prerna was interrupted

"Rehne de chhorri. Main chali jaungi..", Iravati said.

"Aunty, main chali jaungi.. aap rukho.. please..", Shehnaaz pleads to convince Iravati. She couldn't allow her to go when she had pain in her knees. She was a mother figure to her.

"Haan amma.. jaane de", Prerna pleads as well with puppy eyes.

"Thik se chhorri.. thaare liye bhi khaana de doon?", Iravati asked.

"Nahi, main jaldi waapis aa jaungi phir khaa lungi.", Shehnaaz said. She didn't want to spend any time around Sidharth alone.

Shehnaaz took the cloth bag and started.

<Knock knock knock>

Shehnaaz startled at the sudden loud knock. When she turned towards the direction, she found Kalyani was knocking on the toilet door while pressing her stomach with other.

"Arey bhootni ke, chain se huggne tak na dete.. kaun se?", a male voice came from inside.

"Re bais ki poonch, ek toh subah se pata na pet kharab se, dusra tu manne gaali de raha se. Jaldi nikal bahar varna maahra khaaya bahar nikal jaavega", Kalyani said banging the door.

"Maahra bhi pet thik na.. kuch der rokh le Kallu..", the male requested.

"Hambe!! Thaare kuch der mein bahut der ho javega.. jaldi kar Jaggi..", Kalyani cried holding her stomach.

Shehnaaz teetered at the situation. It was a very soothing sight for her sore eyes. She happily hopped and danced to commence her journey towards Sidharth's field.

She heard a honk from behind and quickly turned her head and found an auto rickshaw.

"Waah Shehnaaz, you are so lucky. Itni durr doop mein paidal jaane se bach gayi..", she smiled while muttering to herself.

Par tere paas toh paise bhi nahi hai, Shehnaaz.

Being the lazy self she was, she decided to ask for a lift by signalling using her thumb but before she could signal the auto rickshaw came to a halt near her.

She quickly recognized the rickshaw by the fancy decoration. It was the same auto that she had travelled on the first day she arrived in this village. However, the driver wasn't Sidharth this time.

"Madam ji, aap Shehnaaz Raizada ho na?", asked the young driver with excitement.

Shehnaaz simply nodded.

"Kiddar jana se madam ji?", the driver asked.

"Thakur ko khaana dene, uske khet..", Shehnaaz replied showing the lunch bag.

"Bait jao madam ji..", the driver said and Shehnaaz hopped inside without any delay. The auto was now in motion.

"Yeh Thakur ki gaadi hai na?", she asked.

"Gaadi toh maahri se.. par mili Thakursaab ki kripa se..", the young man said.

"Ohh..", Shehnaaz felt nervous. What if he asks for auto fare.

"Madam ji, manne apki cinema dekhi se..", the driver said.

"Achcha? Kaisi lagi meri acting?", she asked excited.

"Ghana achcha tha.. aap bhi ghani sutri (beautiful) ho.. main thaara badda fan hoon", He said blushingly.

"Ohh!! Thank you.", Shehnaaz chuckled.

"Tumhara naam kya hai?", Shehnaaz asked.

"Jitender..", he replied.

"Waah! Bahut achcha naam hai..", she praised which made the young man blush red like a tomato. Shehnaaz observed him being all shy. Could she get a free lift because he was her fan - she pondered.

"Jitender, tumhe pata hai na ki main GGSC ki contestant hoon.. toh mere pass abhi tumhara auto ka bhaada dene liye paise nahi hai..", she spoke so innocently that anybody couldn't resist.

"Madam ji, main bhi thaare te koi peese na lunga.. manne toh thaare ko maahre rickshaw mein baitne se hi ghani kusi hove..", Jitender said which relieved Shehnaaz's tension. Of course, how could she even forget the charm she held. She flipped her hair with a smirk.

"Waise Jitender, yeh main dusri baar tumhaari auto main baiti hoon.", she said.

"Heh?? Par manne toh yaad na ki thanne pehli baar maahri auto mein kab baiti thi..", Jitender asked in shock.

"Hehehe.. pehli baar driver tum nahi the. Isse Sidharth Thakur chala raha tha woh bhi raat ko.. par kyu?", she asked.

"Ooohh.. maahre naye auto ko pehli baar chalane ko Thakur ko diya tha uss din.. haaye.. maahri auto ki pehli savaari thanne ki.. manne ghana kusi ho raha se ye sunnke.", Jitender spoke excitedly.

She chuckled reminiscing about the first meeting and conversation with Sidharth. She had declared herself as Sidharth's wife unaware that she was talking to Sidharth himself. His facial expressions when she called him baby had to be the funniest thing she had ever experienced in her life. She guffawed loudly at the memory.

"Ke hua madamji?", Jitender asked.

"Uss din maine Thakur ko auto driver samaj liya tha..", she replied and both of them laughed out loudly. They had reached the destination and their laughter echoed into Sidharth's ears. He turned his head quickly since it was the familiar laugh - the one he denied yet liked to hear most.

Shehnaaz got down from the auto and gave a quick hug to Jitender saying thank you. While Jitender turned red due to shyness, Sidharth turned the same colour due to jealousy. She waved bye to him with a wide smile. Jitender, who was about to leave noticed Sidharth and smiled at him. Seeing Jitender smile at something behind, she followed his direction to turn and meet with Sidharth's frowning face. Her face replicated his reaction.

Uske saath badi hass ke baat kar rahi thi aur gale bhi lagaya.. aur maahra chehra dekh ke yeh muh bana rahi se..

"Raam Raam Thakursaab..", Jitender greeted by folding hands.

"Raam Raam Jitender. Thaara rickshaw kaise chal raha se?", Sidharth asked

"Do vakat khaane jitna mil jata se Thakursaab..", Jitender said humbly.

"Hmmm.. ibi je savaari le aaya, uske pese liya thanne?", Sidharth questioned making Shehnaaz narrow her eyebrows at him.

"Woh.. woh.. nahi..", Jitender stuttered looking at Shehnaaz and back at Sidharth.

"Kyu? Woh thaari rishtedaar laage ke?", Sidharth asked. Shehnaaz gritted her teeth to control her anger.

"N..na Thakursaab.. par woh manne bahut pasand se..", Jitender said

"Ke?", Sidharth was shocked. His already jealous soul was aggravated with those words.

"M..m..maahra matlab main Shehnaaz madam ka fan hoon.. manne unki saari cinema dekha se..", Jitender exclaimed after the initial stutter.

"Toh? Thanne ke cinema dekhan ka pese na diye the?", Sidharth asked.

"Huh? (Gulps) Diye the Thakursaab.. balki black main jyada pese deke gaya tha..", Jitender replied.

"Toh ib tu muffat mein iski cinema na dekh sake toh muffat mein savari ke karayega?", Sidharth asked. Shehnaaz was fuming in anger now. If her glares could dig holes, then there would have been a huge hole on Sidharth's face by now.

"Umm.. aaa..", Jitender was in a dilemma as to what he was supposed to do at this stage.

"Ke soch raha se.. pese maang apni savari se.. Thanne rickshaw ka kisht bhi bharna se.. ibi agar thanne kiraaya na liye toh manne thaari subsidy rokh dena padego.. phir thanne rickshaw ka pura pese bharna padega..", Sidharth said.

"Huh?", Jitender was horrified by his words.

"P.. p.. par.." Jitender stuttered

"Mere pass kiraaya dene ka paisa nahi hai.." Shehnaaz yelled.

"Awaaz niche!! Jab pese na the toh rickshaw mein chadi ke?", Sidharth snapped at her.

"Tumhaare liye khaana le aayi hoon.. koi khet mein disco karne nahi aayi..", Shehnaaz replied.

"Tu khaana le aa ya disco kar.. par rickshaw ka kiraya se uska ke lena dena?", Sidharth asked.

"Arghhh.. galti ho gayi jo iske rickshaw mein chad gayi.. ab mere pass paise nahi hai.. toh kya apna kidney nikal ke de doon isse?", Shehnaaz spoke gritting her jaws.

"Pese ke badle kidney lega ke iska?", Sidharth asked Jitender who was regretting his existence between these two people.

"M..m..main.. dedo madam jo dena se.. main le lunga..", Jitender stuttered in fear.

"What?", Shehnaaz looked at him in shock.

"Iska kidney ka karega ke? Keema banake khaayega ke?", Sidharth asked.

"Thakursaab manne maaf kardo.. agli baar rickshaw mein savaari ko bitaane se pehle hi pese le lunga.. inka cinema bhi nahi dekhunga.. main inko kya, inke photo ko bhi apni rickshaw mein nahi rakhunga.. bas meri subsidy math rokna..", Jitender cried.

"Aarrgghhhh...", Shehnaaz glared at Sidharth.

"Achchi bàat se.. Ye le apna kiraaya.. aur jaa ib apne kaam pe..", Sidharth took out money from his pocket and gave it to Jitender. As soon as he got permission to leave, Jitender ran away without turning back.

"Kuttey, tumhaari problem kya hai? Itna nafrat kyu karte ho mujhse? Haan?", she questioned him holding his collar.

"Jaise tu toh maahre se ghana pyaar karti hai.. Haina? Tu bhi toh maahre se nafrat kare.. tu jaisa maahre se pesh aavegi, waisa hi main thaare se pesh aaunga..", Sidharth answered staring into her eyes.

"Aur agli baar manne kutta bola na toh..", he held her arms, leaned in and bit her earlobe making her gasp in shock.

".. toh kuttey ke jaise zor se kaatunga", he left her arms. She covered her ears totally stunned to recover. He smirked as he pulled the cloth bag hanging from her arms and went to sit under the shade. As he opened the tiffin box, he could feel her glare at him.

"Saandh kahi ka, agli baar tere khaane mein na laxative mila dungi.. phir kaat the rehna toilet ke chakkar", she uttered loudly but zoned out.

"Achcha hua bata diya.. algi baar thaare ko pehle khila ke jaach karunga.."

When he didn't get response from her, he looked at her and found her lost deep in her thoughts.
