HOW DOES IT FEEL WHEN YOU HAVE TO LEAVE A PLACE ,THAT HAD BEEN YOUR HOME SINCE THE PAST 20 YEARS?WHY WE GIRLS HAVE TO LEAVE OUR FAMILY TO SETTLE DOWN WITH A NEW FAMILY?.CANT THE BOYS DO THE SAME AS IT SHOULD BE A RELATION OF GIVE AND TAKE.A RELATIONSHIP WITH EQUALITY,AS THEY ALL SAY!!!!
SERIOUSLY,BEING A GIRL IS NOT EASY...and it will never be...

The sun shone brighter that day,rising with a new day ,bringing a new hope in her life ,spreading its warmth all around ,the leaves on the trees were dancing in joy while the trees looked happier ,swaying to and fro in excitement.The chirping birds sang a melodious song ,happily flying in the
blue sky ,celebrating the victory of love.

The person standing in the balcony of her room was observing these minute changes of nature and felt as if they all were joining in the celebrations of her wedding .She had a different feeling that day.When she looked towards the sky ,she could see a few balloons in shades of pink,red,blue ,green and yellow, flying in their own pace,freely and carelessly moving with the
cool breeze.

'Yellow' she mumbled and then sighed thinking about the significance of this colour in her life today .

"Haldi ke peele rang se shagun hua hai,dekh lena ab agla rang laal hoga"

She recalled his words and smiled to herself.Indeed the next colour is red

"The colour of their love".

Naina left the balcony and reached inside her room,she looked at her reflection in the mirror , the same mirror which had been a witness of the changes she had been experiencing. From a 16 year old ,topper ,sweet innocent girl to a 20 year old ,matured,beautiful adult.This mirror saw her growing with every phase of her life. She smiled thinking about a name ,that name which will
be her future ,the name which the 16 year old had dreamt of one day is now gonna be a reality for this 20 year old woman.

'Mrs Naina Sameer Maheshwari'
she proudly spoke while gazing at her reflection in the same mirror.
Wow!she sighed and her eyes immediately had that twinkle and spark as they brimmed up tears ,tears of happiness.

How silly of you Naina!she chuckled at her own reactions on the name she just spoke.

This is what she was feeling at the moment.A feeling of pure happiness but with a few tears.Happiness of marrying her love and tears of leaving her family ,her true family "her chachaji ,chachiji and preeti".The only people in this house who gave her a home .

She was lost n her thoughts while sadly looking at their family photoframe hanging on the wall of
her room. she was continously staring at the picture of hers with preeti chachi and chachu, her gaze was transfixed on the wall as if she was capturing the picture through her eyes to keep it safely inside her heart forever. Her trance was broken by a loud but the sweetest voice

"Naina kya karri hai "preeti came in with a frown as she was tired of the wedding related chores which she was performing since the morning just for her darling sister.Before preeti could say anything or scold naina for being late,she was pulled into a tight hug by her.

Preeti too hugged her sister in response as tightly as possible.

How will she stay without her in
their room?

Oh God!! the feeling of sleeping alone in this large bed was haunting her now.This was something she wished since a long time. She wished for a big bed solely occupied by her
and now when her dreams were turning into reality, it was hard for her to accept it happily.Preeti tried very hard to control her tears but when she felt her kurti being wetted with her sister's tears , she too broke down.

Both the soul sisters from different mothers who shared a bond of love deeper than any real siblings were standing in the mid of the room. One was feeling sad coz she was leaving the lifestyle and people she had been adapted to since the past 20 years while the other was sad , thinking about the lonely days and nights after 6 days ,when her sister would leave her forever.

Preeti's feelings-

"Bachpan se hi ek dusre ke saath rahe hum dono,Hamesha socha tha ki isi ke sath jaugi jab bhi shaadi hogi,ek hi ghar me rahege hum dono par shayad ye hi fark hota hai haqiqat aur kalpana mein. Aaj se 6 din baad mere pass ye kamra hoga,ye badi si almaari hogi ,ye pura ka pura bistar
hoga par nahi hogi to bas meri naina,meri pyari si behen.Par jahan in ankhon me ek taraf usse
bichaddne ka gam hai to dusri hi taraf ye khushi bhi ki meri behen ke pyaar ki jeet hui. Jis pyaar ke liye humne itne chaate khaaye aaj us pyar ko ek naam mil jaeyga,sameer jijaaji jaisa humsafar mil jaeyga aur uske zindagi ka sabse bada sapna pura ho jaeyga.Is khushi ke aage
mujhe mere dukh bauhat chote lagre hai ab ,Bhagwanji,Meri Naina ko duniya ki har khushi dena
aur iski aur jijaji ki jodi ko aise hi pyar ki dor se bandhe rakhna"

Preeti consoled naina by patting her back "Chal behen bauhat hua rona ab jaldi se tayar ho jaa,bhavan jaana hai na,gaadiyan bhi aati hi hogi...mai tab tak tera sab samaan check kar leti
hoon "

Preeti was about to leave when naina held her hands "Kitni bhi packing kar le preeti,mere ek cheez hamesha yahi reh jaeygi"

Preeti was confused so she asked
"aur wo kya hai?"

"Mere dil ka ek tukda"

Naina immediately replied with teary eyes and preeti again ran to hug
her.Two people who were standing at the door of their room couldnt stop themselves from joining their daughters and hugged them tightly.

"Aisa nahi bolte beta,har ladki ko ek din jaana hi padta hai"chachiji tried to console naina

"Par kyu chachiji?hum betiya hi kyu apna ghar chodke jaati hai "

Before chachiji could say anything,chachaji interuppted "Naina,meri gudiya jis tarah tu ye ghar chodke jaeygi ,usi tarah sameer ne bhi to tumhare pyar ke liye apna ghar choda jo uske nanu ne itne pyar se sajaya tha"

Naina understood what her chachaji wanted to say and she nodded her head in approval .Her eyes were filled with tears while her lips had a slight smile.

"Jijaji to shayad pehle ladke hoge jo pyaar ke khatir ghar chod de,aisa to humnei bas filmo mei dekha hai".."islie mere jijaji to prem se bhi best hai ..ekdum hero".

Preeti's remark on sameer made the family broke into fits of laughter while naina felt a little
better in heart now.

"Naina beta,waha koi tere naye ghar mei tere aane ke khwaab dekh raha hai,tere sath nayi zindagi ke sapne dekhra hai ,to tu bhi ro mat ab aur us insan ke saath milke un sapno ko pura kar jo 4 saal pehle tum dono ne ek saath bune the " chachiji explained to her daughter and
finally she saw a wide smile on Naina's face.

And after this ,The Eyes of Naina Anand Agrawal no more had those tears of separation but
Naina Sameer Maheshwari had those dreams of togetherness with her husband in their home.

FINALLY THE TOUGHEST MOMENT OF HER LIFE NEARED ,THE MOMENT WHEN THE HOUSE IN WHICH SHE HAD BEEN LIVING SINCE THE PAST 20 YEARS,THE HOUSE WHICH HAD SEEN HER GROWING FROM AN INFANT TO A CHILD TO A TEENAGE AND NOW TO A WOMAN WILL NOT BE HER ANYMORE.

Phulla dadi's words were ringing in her ears

"Ab naina ke liye yeh ghar me akhiri kuch pal hai ,iske baad ye ghar naina ke liye paraya ho jaeyga aur wo is ghar mei ab agli baar jab bhi aeygi
,tab wo humari beti nahi par sameer ki biwi hogi "

Naina sobbed really hard while having a last look of her maayka. There wasnt any corner or room which she had not visited.She touched and felt the walls of her chachaji's room, the writing
desk of her room where she used to study and then topped for her exams,the same writing desk
from where she used to write letters for sameer when he was in Delhi. She then sat on the bed where she used to pillow fight with preeti. She laughed thinking about how the three sisters
shared this one bed ,fighting for space and blanket. She visited the balcony which was the most special part of their lovestory.

The same balcony which had witnessed their very special moments like 

"the lice removal shampoo that was the first gift by sameer to naina"

"The talking parrot that was still hanging on that balcony" 

"that night when sameer had stayed down on the road for her forgiveness"

"That phone conversation after their coke romance during pooja di's
wedding" 

"The rose plant that was a symbol of their love " 

"Their group dance on sir phute ya
matha during the rehearsals for freshers competition"

"The le jaeyga dulhaniya performance by
sameer and ladke wale after their engagement".

One balcony and endless memories!

she thought and moved towards the kitchen where she had burnt her hands several times while
cooking and the care she recieved from chachiji after the incidents.She then moved towards the
washroom of her room ,where she had knitted the sweater for sameer and the same spot where sameer had made their first ever shaadi wala card".

She slowly moved towards the living room and touched all the inanimate objects that held a special place in her heart -
The cordless phone
(a big supporter in their lovestory ) ,
the cable tv on which she used to enjoy new films and
Doordarshan with chachi and preeti . The VCR on which she had seen the pooja di wedding clip
ample number of times (just to have look of her sameer)

Naina then touched the swing of the living room and had the flashbacks of her masti with preeti,her romantic moments with sameer and also her solo moments of peace on their wooden swing that though looked plain but was precious for her.

She touched the sofa and she remembered her moments with chachaji ,when he had hugged
her and consoled her during her heartbreaks and badtimes of life.

The same sofa which once witnessed a dominant sharad with his family and then finally had invited the love of her life "her sameer"with his family.

She moved towards the showcase which was filled up her awards ,trophies ,shields and
Medals. She remembered that how proud chachi chachaji used to be whenever she won in any
debate or for being the topper and also for the dance competition.

"Naina,ye sab to rakhna hi bhool gae beta,ruk bag mei daal deti hoon" naina's trance was broken by chachiji's words and she felt a bit sad and like always her chachaji understood her feelings and replied

"Ye sab trophies and awards meri beti ne jeeti hai,ye yahi rahege..ye meri
beti ke tohfe hai mere liye ,uski yadon ke sath ye yahi rahege" chachaji announced proudly with a stern look.

Naina immediately rushed to her chachu and hugged him tightly. Chachaji kissed her forehead
and asked her to come down as the cars had already arrived to pick them up.

All the luggage was loaded in the tempo while 2 cars had been waiting down in their society.Naina moved out of the house and gave one last look inside and walked slowly.She
waited outside taiji's house for her father but unfortunately she couldnt see him there. Dejected and heartbroken ,the two words for her condition at that time.It was her wedding and her father wasnt going to attend it. He was still angry over the card fiasco and so decided to exclude himself from his daughter's wedding.Naina touched her bicycle emotionally and then the
flashbacks of her riding to their school came in front of her eyes.The same bicycle which sameer had gifted her when she was angry with him over the bet thing .

Ironically,most of the memories in her house were related to sameer and now her destiny was taking her on the path of being his wife ,his soulmate for the rest of her life.
With the last step she kept out of the society ,she turned and read the board -

"Nirmal jyoti society" and then saw a choti naina running inside the society in her school uniform and two ponytails who had been chased by a choti preeti ,after blinking back the tears she the saw the flashback of chachaji teaching them to ride the bicycle and then she saw an elder naina and preeti riding back from school on their bicycles and suddenly she saw her sameer coming on a
horse,wearing his sherwani looking as the most handsome groom she had ever seen.He was here to take her away with him forever ,and then she saw herself wearing that bridal lehenga ,sitting in a beautifully decorated palki which was carried by her dear devars munna and pandit
while sameer was walking beside her.

The Naina maheshwari ,sitting inside that palki turned around and waved a bye to her family one last time and then was gone ....to begin a new
journey of her life ,a new phase as Sameer's wife !

Naina came back to the reality and with teary eyes,she looked at her father who was standing at
the balcony looking at her ,may be trying to control the tears that were about to fall anytime soon. Naina looked at him with pleading eyes,hoping to see him running down to her and taking her in his embrace and consoling her but her thoughts were interrupted by chachaji who asked her to settle inside the car.
They all sat in the car and soon the car with "Naina sang Sameer " written behind it on a beautiful pink heart sped off to mark a new beginning of their lives.

Naina's pov-

Us din ghar ko chodte waqt aisa lagra tha ki ye duniya kitni zaalim hai,har balidaan bas ladkiyon ko hi kyun deni padti hai.Us din mere ek ankh mein khushi ke ansoon the aur dusri mein dukh ke ansoon the .Par haa shayad khushi ke ansoo zyada the kyuki wo mujhe mere sameer se milne ka dilasa de rahe the.Ghar se nikalte waqt mai apne saaath bauhat saari yadein le jaa rahi thi.Us ghar ke bahar ,us society ke bahar pehle kadam rakhte hi mera wajood badal chuka tha .Kuch hi dino mei mere naam ke sath meri pehchaan bhi badalne wali thi aur mai hamesha
ke liye apne sameer ki hone jaa rahi thi,humari zindagi ke naye safar ke liye nikal padi thi us din
