Shehnaaz's Pov :

Today we are celebrating maybe my last birthday sounds weird but kya kar sakte hai i don't know mein rahu ya na rahu aur to be honest i don't care anymore sirf is baat ka dar hai ki jaate waqt apno ko tutte dekh paungi ki nahi i don't know i really don't know. Sab muskura rahe hai lekin chehre par nakli muskaan hai unke, ummid hai sabko par kismat par vishwas nahi. Chalo let's see kya hota hai aage.
..................

She enter in her room sitting on wheel chair with shehbaaz because her body didn't support her. She smile weakly when she look around her surrounding her family members and friends decorated the whole room with ballons and lights, a cake is on the bed. They wish her.

Shm : "happy birthday mera baccha" she kissed her forehead.

Sm : "happy birthday beta bhagwan tujhe lambi umar de"

Sf : "happy birthday meri bahu rani bass ab jaldi se theek hokar ghar aaja phir ye maa bete ye khilaf team banayenge".

Hearing him shehnaaz giggle slowly.

Sidharth : "ha ha abhi se meri biwi ko apni taraf kar lo" he hug her from side and kissed on top of her head "happy birthday baby".

Kushal : "oye baby ke bebu chal aane de usko andar cake bhi cut karna hai".

Vikas : "ha yaar ek din ke liye to chod de usko".

Sidharth : "ye haath chodne ke liye thodi thama hai" he kissed her hand. She smile shyly.

Meeti : "chalo guys let's cut the cake chal shehnaaz aaja" she open her camera and start the recording.

Shehnaaz : she look toward cake and said "are ye kya likha hai happy birthday fighter?"

Vikas : "aur kya tu hai na hamari fighter".

Asim : "haan tu lad rahi hai apni bimari se".

Kushal : "to hui na fighter right?".

Sidharth : "aur nahi to kya meri baby bohot badi fighter hai dekhna apni is bimari se bhi lad ke wapas aayegi" he kissed her forehead. Shehnaaz bite her lower lip to control her tears and nodded as yes. Sidharth held her hand and take knife to cut the cake.

Asim : "chal pehele wish maang" he place the candles on the cake.

Shehnaaz : "are but mere pass sab kuch hai baba aur kya maangu?" She said innocently.

Sidharth : "baby kuch bhi maang jo man kare".

Shehnaaz : "okay" she close her eyes and wish for something in her mind "baba ji sabko khush rakhna mere jaane ke baad specially sidharth ko" then she open her eyes and look at everyone, then blow the candles.

She cut the cake and forward first piece toward sidharth but he held her hand and move her hand towards her mother. She smile and feed her mother first bite of cake and then other's.

Meeti : "wow kitni mast video aai hai aao let's take selfies".

Sidharth : "are yaar aur photos nahi please".

Shehnaaz : " kya aur photos nahi zarurat hai photos lene ki as a memory" she smile sadly then pose for selfie.

They take lots of pictures together. Shehnaaz request everyone to take a separate picture with her.

At night shehnaaz is sitting in her room, starring at moon.

Shehnaaz POV :

Bohot jald hum milenge chand (smile sadly) bachpan se dur se nihara hai tumhe bas kuch din aur fir me tumhe pass se dekh paungi, pata hai bachpan me sidharth se zid karti thi ki mujhe tumhare pass aana hai pata nahi tha ki kuch din me tumhare pass aakar me waha se apne sidharth ko nihara karungi phir. Bohot takleef ho rahi hai aesa lag raha hai koi andar se aatma ko khich raha hai samjh nahi aa raha ki aane wala kal kya hoga magar ab jo bhi hoga usme mein kuch nahi kar sakti meine bohot koshish kari ab bhi kar rahi hu lekin ye dar mujhe kha raha hai mar rahi hu roz dheere dheere ab bardasht nahi hota nahi hota.

Sidharth POV :

Just 5 days left kya karu kya hoga kuch samjh nahi aa raha ek ek pal kitna mushkil se kat raha hai sirf mein jaanta hu har pal dar sataya rehta hai ki kahi shehnaaz mujhse dur na chali jaaye. Uske saath saath khudh ko kho raha hu mar raha hu usko marte dekh. Bhagwan kuch karo madad karo apne is bande ki, himmat haar raha hu mein kese usko face karu kese usko sambhalu jab mein khudh hi bikhar raha hu. Toth raha hu mein bhi madad kar mere maula meri harna nahi hai mujhe jeetna hai apni aur uski kismat se.
....................

Sidharth : "aap sab yaha aur shehnaaz kaha hai?" He said while entering in room.

Sm : "wo shehnaaz ko ek check up ke liye lekar gaye hai santosh bhaisahab uske saath gaye hai".

Sidharth : "hmm" he lost somewhere.

Sm : she caressed his hairs "pareshan hai?".

Sidharth : he smile sadly "bohot".

Sm : "ha idhar aa" they sit on sofa. Sidharth keep his head on his mother's lap and close his eyes. "Ab bata kya hua?".

Sidharth : "thak gaya hu mom bass haar raha hu hamare saath hi ye kiu hua maa kya galti thi hamari khush hai na saath itna acha pariwar hai saath dene ko sab itna pyaar karte hai phir kiu bhagwan humse hamari khushi chinna chahate hai kiu" a long tear escape his eye.

Sm : "sidharth kai baar hum jo sochte hai na wo hamesha nahi hota hai baccha tune aur shehnaaz ne apni aage ki zindagi ke liye sapne sanjho liye the isliye tumhe takleef zayda ho rahi hai bola tha na tujhe ki present jio we don't know about future, we don't know what our destiny plan for us aur tu to ye baat manta hai na phir bhi".

Sidharth : "ha mom ache se jaanta hu lekin hum hi kiu kitne khush the maa hum apni us choti se duniya me shehnaaz ko thi problem but usse wo ladi jeetti bhi thi maa wo lekin ab haar rahi hai wo bhi dikhta hai uski aakho me roz jeene ki ummid chodti ja rahi hai wo aur mein... mein kuch nahi kar paa raha uske liye kiu maa? Kiu jaa rahi hai wo maa kiu?".

Sm : she smile sadly "jaana to ek din tujhe aur mujhe bhi hai na aur bhagwan hamare liye wo likh chuke hai hamari kismat me, kisko kese kab jaana hai unke pass wo to sirf wahi jaante hai na aur baat rahi uski ummid chodne ki to wo mein usko samjhaungi apni zindagi ke aakhiri pal tak hume ummid nahi chodni chahiye tu bhi mat chod upar wale par bharosa rakh kai baar jo hum sochte hai wo nahi hota lekin jo hota hai wo behtar hota hai agar shehnaaz ka jaana likha hai to usme us parmatma ka koi khel hoga beta wo aese hi kisi ko takleef nahi dete".

Sidharth : he stood up with a jerk and said angrily "how could you say that mom kya acha hoga agar wo jayegi to haan mein batau aapka beta barbad ho jayega maa" tears continuously flowing from his eyes.

Sm : "sidharth beta sab bhagya ka khel hota hai hum usme sirf apna kirdar nibhate hai lekin usko control wo upar wala karta hai soch shehnaaz ko abhi kitni takleef hogi na is bimari se ho sakta hai usko is takleef se mukti mile uske sukoon ke liye us upar wale ne ye kara ho?".

Sidharth : "m.. mom nah... nahi plea... please mei... mein nahi... reh paaunga uske bina" he said in cracking voice.

Shehnaaz mother hear all their conversations, she control herself and enter in room with a smile.

Shm : "kiu nahi reh payega beta bhagwan na kare agar wo gai to uski achi yaadein to hongi na hamare saath aur tu hi to kehta hai ki insaan chahe physically present na ho hamare saath lekin emotionally wo hume hamesha support karta hai hamare saath na rehkar bhi. Kitne log hai is duniya me jo apno ko khote hai lekin wo bhi aage bhadte hai na? Jeete hai apno ke liye haina aur shehnaaz bhi nahi chahegi ki tu apni life ko roke aage badhne se wo to teri khushi chahati hai na?".

Sidharth : he nodded "lekin".

Shm : "sidharth beta aapne usse pyaar kiya hai jab wo is duniya me aai tab se lekin maine usse tab se pyaar kiya hai jabse mujhe uske aane ka pata chala tha tujhe pata hai bohot mannato ke baad shehnaaz is duniya me aai thi aur jab aese ja rahi hai to mein bhi tut rahi hu beta lekin mein jaanti hu meri beti kitni takleef me hai mein bhi usko is takleef se aazad karna chahati hu ab bhale hi iske liye usko humse dur hi kiu na jaana padhe beta wo bhi roz roz mar rahi hai maine dekha hai usko dard se tadapte hue mera bass chale to uski jagha mein chali jaau lekin upar wale ke aage na aaj tak kisi ki chali hai na aage chalegi".

Sidharth : "lekin maa mein nahi hu aap jitna strong mein nahi dekh sakta usko jaate hue nahi hai himmat mujhme" he hide his face in his palms and a sob left his mouth.

Sm : "mera baccha hum kaha reh payenge uske bina tu ummid mat haar wo lad rahi hai apne dar se tere liye tu bhi lad uske liye bhagwan ne chaha to tumhari kahani zarur mukammal hogi".

Shm : "haan aur hum sab honge tumhari kahani puri hoti dekhne ke liye aakhir hum bhi sidnaaz shipper hai" she wipe her tears "beta stay strong okay aur aage jo hoga uske liye bhi apne aap ko samjha ke rakho hmm".

Both mother's hug sidharth. He hug them tightly and cry loudly.
...............

Shehnaaz : "oye tu roya tha na?" She notice his face.

Sidharth : "nahi to pagal hai kya" he look other side.

Shehnaaz : "sidharthhhh idhar dekh meri taraf".

He didn't turn and nodded his head as no.

Shehnaaz : "sidharth dekh na bebu please".

He again didn't say anything just turn and hug her tightly.

Sidharth : "i love you" he hug her as tightly as possible.

Shehnaaz : "i love you too but hua kya?".

Sidharth : "kuch nahi bas aese hi reh please".

Shehnaaz : "sidharth".

Shehnaaz slowly bend at back as sidharth slowly push her. Both laid on bed hugging eachother tightly. The silence give them peace because they are in eachother arms.
