"There is always a point, where no escape route is left for you. Just smile, figure out your flaws, prepare yourself for the next."

Life is always very unpredictable, at one point it gives enourmous moments to live for, the other point it leads to a blind lane where there is no way out. 

In a broad day light, room was gloomy. People present in the room were breathing but yet it gives a feel of suffocation. Not because of the reason that it was not well ventilated, the reason was the baggage they all are carrying.

Doctor was treating Naina, but it felt like every single soul need attention. Rajveer was remorseful, he was blaming himself for all this. He wished, he was present here in the college when Naina entered Dean's quarter. He wished, he could say to Naina the truth. He wished, he could change their past. He can just wish.

He was continuously repenting and crying as if he commited a sin, holding Naina's hand he was praying to almighty, to listen to his prayer. Just for once.

Sameera who was standing just beside him, was in no good condition but still consoling her friend. She could not understand why life is so cruel to them. Once she lost everything for this truth, now again destiny playing the same game with them. How she should stop this?Sameera dont have any answer, just secretly joined her hands in front of her almighty, wishing for her friends happiness.

Pooja was silently observing everything, but she is guilty. Guilty for leaving Naina alone, guilty for not able to save her, guilty for not being a good friend. But she herself is a human and humans are meant to make mistakes. She is already in verge of breaking as Neeksha showed her the mirror again before Naina was found, now seeing her condition every single allegation seemed to be true to her.

She sighed heavily and starts waiting for the answer from doctor. But Neeksha was in no good condition, seeing her best friend, her everything lying unconscious, stealing her every single breath. Every single second is like an hour to her. She is dying seeing her in this condition and the reason behind this mess, A SINGLE TRUTH.

 How can she say the truth? But does she have any option left? After seeing everything she is doubting on her decision. If she will say the truth, will it save their lives? If no, then how can she put risk to everyone's life? Life has put her in such a cross road where both the roads are correct but comes with a huge price.Her eyes turns misty with all the thoughts.

She sighed heavily while waiting for the review. Alekh and Harshad who were enjoying their day with Nanu came running when Sameera informed them about the condition. They were no better than the others. Alekh didnt uttered a word since his arrival and Harshad the most jovial guy of the group standing at the corner looking at Naina with pain in his eyes.

Not only them but Dean and Noorie ma'am looked equally drained out after all the events taking place in last few days. All were waiting now for doctor to say something after checking Naina and finally their wait got over. Doctor gave them the enough information required

"Naina ke behosh hone se pehle kuch drastic hua tha kya? Actually may be inhone kuch aisa dekha ya suna hain jiski wajah se she got panic attack,  and seeing her medical history, i will say please take a good care of her. Naina ke liye stress lena abhi bilkul sahi nahi hain,yeh inke liye janlewa sabit ho sakta hain.

Yeh toh shukar hain unka jinhone sahi waqt pe sahi precautions liye warna agar 2 3min yeh aur chalta to nervous breakdown ho sakta tha which can be dangerous too. So agar Naina ko thik rakhna hain keep her away from stress."

Dean immediately put forth his query

"Doctor mera ek sawal aur hain, Naina jaise behosh hui thi, toh kya yeh sab uske brain pe koi serious effect daal sakta hain?"

Doctor smiled at his concern and said

"Normally aise cases me jab tak patient ko hosh nahi aata hain, hum kuch bol nahi pate hain. Patient ki mental condition ke sath vary karta hain reaction. Someone completely forgets what exactly happened with him a minute before when he/she got this attack, someone remembers everything, aur kuch logon ko  kuch kuch dhundla yaad reh jaata hain. So i cant say anything right now, Naina ko hosh me aane dijiye, phir dekhte hain.

Filhal aap log yeh dawaiyan leke aajaiye,maine inhe kuch sedatives de diye hain abhi ke liye,to filhaal in dawao ki jarurat inhe abhi nhi hogi per hosh me ane ke baad inhe yeh de djiyega. Jab yeh hosh me aajaye call me. Main check kar jaunga. But remember one thing stress is harmful. So please keep her away from any kind of stress."

With this doctor left while the remaining people again got lost in their own thoughts.As soon as the doctor left Dean looked towards Noorie with worry clear on his face and said in helpless tone

"Itna kuch karne ke baad bhi hum naina ko aur in sabko bacha nahi paa rahe hain, kismat phir se hum se na jane kaunsi dushmani nikal rahi hain, kuch samajh nahi aa rha hain. Jitna past se dur bhag rahe hain, jitna naina aur bakiyo ko bachane ke liye hath pair maar rahe hain, utna hi teji se sab kuch bigadta jaa raha hain.

Aise lag raha hain jaise hum kisi daldal me phas gaye hain jo marzi kar lo dubna to hain hi hain, jitna hath pair maroge utna jaldi duboge. Nahi...nahi nahi mai aisa kuch nahi hone dunga phir se wo sab kuch bilkul nahi.

Hume kuch karna hoga Noorie in sabko bachane ke liye, kuch karna hoga, is baar hum baith ke tamasha nahi dekh sakte hai pichli baar ki tarah.

I think hume Naina ko yaha se kahi door bhej dena chaiye."

Noorie got shocked hearing his decision, and looked towards him oblivious to the fact that Neeksha heard every single word uttered by them. Before she could say anything to dean, Neeksha asked Pooja

"Pooja jaake bahar se Naina ki yeh dawaiyan le aayegi? Main yahin pe hun uske paas."

Pooja immediately took the prescription and moved towards the door, thinking it might help her to clear herself from this suffocation when Harshad said

"Pooja ruko, main bhi chalta hun tumhare saath mein. Samne wali dukaan pe shayad naa mile toh ho sakta hain aage jana pade."

Pooja without uttering a word nodded her head and left the room followed by Harshad. After they left Noorie asked Dean

"Aapko pata bhi hain kya bol rahe ho aap, sir."

But before Dean could reply Neeksha said

"Ma'am inko toh bas order dena aata hain. Sochte kahan hain kuch bhi."

Dean looked sharply towards Neeksha when Noorie said

"Kya bole jaa rahi ho tum Neeksha? Is this a way to talk to your dean?"

Neeksha smiled sarcastically and said

"Sirf dean hote ma'am,toh main shayad kuch nahi bolti, par aap shayad dekh nahi paa rahe ho theek se, ki yeh apni bhavnao me kuch jyada hi behne lag gaye hain.

Dean closed his eyes in vexation and said 

"Neeksha, agar tum bhul gayi ho toh main tumhe yaad dila deta hun ki tum abhi is waqt is college ke principal ke saamne khadi ho aur student ki betterment k liye i can take decision in absence of their family."

Neeksha gritted her teeth and said

"Oh! So this is your decision? Naina ka haal dekha hain aapne? Aise haal me usko aap bahar akele bhejna chahte ho? Aur kya bolke bhejoge aap use?" 

Noorie tried to make her understand his plight

"Neeksha aise koi baat nahi hain,tum humein galat samajh rahi ho. Rajveer, Sameera, Alekh tum log ise kuch samjhao na."

Dean stopped her in middle and said

"Its an order Neeksha, aur tum aise mere decisions ko challenge nahi kar sakhti ho, do you get it?" 

Neeksha looked sharply and said

"To hell with you and your so called order Abhi."

Dean looked shocked with the revealation and said in a low tone like a whisper

"Nishthaaaaaa....."

Neeksha who was showing her back to him, turned towards him and said

"Mar gayi Nishtha. Jo aapke samne zinda khadi hain woh Neeksha hain, aur Neeksha kabhi bhi apni ki hui galtiyo ko phir se dauhrati nahi hain, i dont belive in giving second chance, chahe wo kuch bhi kyun na ho ya koi bhi kyun na ho. Naina akeli kahin nahi jayegi."

Rajveer, seeing the situation going out of control immediately said

"Nishu, agar sir Naina ko inter collegiate competition ke liye bhejna chahte hain,to  main jaunga Naina ke saath. Agar tujhe problem naa ho toh."

Noorie agreeing with Rajveer said 

"Neeksha ab toh solve hogaya na pura matter. Sir bhi isi silsile me Naina ko bhejna chahte hain taki uska dhyan hate in sab chizo se agar competition me dhyan degi. Yahan se dur jayegi,nayi jagah, naye logo ke beech to shayad better feel karegi, aur ab agar Rajveer bhi naina ke saath jayega toh koi problem bhi nahi hogi.

Sir is right Naina need to be distracted. Aur abhi is time ise best koi solution nahi to maintain her sanity."

Neeksha looked towards the pale face of Naina, and reluctantly agreed to their decision oblivious to the fact Pooja again overheard their half conversation as she came back to take her purse which she left in the room.

                                                                 
Mumbai

Somewhere in the outskirts of Mumbai, Ragini is standing on the terrace with a knife in her hand and a photo of someone in the other. She was looking at the photo closely, but her eyes was showing hatred. Hatred which can burn someone. 

After some brief second she started cutting the picture in a such way that one will get confused whether its a piece of meat or a picture. Anyone can say she was showing her frustration through this act.Finally when she shredded the picture, said

"Hasratein to is dil ki kuch aise hain ki iski her ek hasrat pe teri aah nikale, shiddat to is pagalpan ki kuch aise hain ki teri chikhon me hi mera har ek pal gujare. Zehar se bhi zeharili, khanjar se bhi nukili chu jaao to jaan nikle, teri ruh ko jalane jinda hun main aur tujhe teri maut se milane lo aagyi hu main.

hahahahahaha kuch aisa hi hoga tumhare saath pal pal, til til tumhe itna tadpayenge ki maut ki bheekh mangogi humse aur wo bhi nasib nahi hogi tumhe jab tak, jab tak humara dil na bhar jayein tumhare aansuo se tumhari chikhon se. Nishthaa is naam ka namo nishan mita denge hum is duniya se.  Hahahahahah jala ke khak kar denge in sabko. 

She started smiling when Virat came from back whistling a tune and a glass of scotch in his hand

"Wuhu di! Aag and all haan? Waise aap bas in photos ko hi jala sakte hain, baki kaam toh aapse hota nahi."

She looked towards him from her shoulder and said

"Kya matlab hain tumhara?"

He chuckled at her words and said

"Pyaar me insaan nikamma ho jata hain pata tha, par is ghar me mere do bhai behen ko dekh k yakeen bhi hogaya. Di chota hun par ek salah deta hun. Pyaar mat karna, just lure them, seduce them, f*ck them, kick them."

Ragini hold the balustrade so tight that her knuckles turned white hearing his words and replied with gritted teeth

"Shut up, apni bakwas apni pocket me rakho, tumse lessons lene ki jarurat nahi hain humein samjhe, itne bure din bhi nahi aye hai humare ki tum jaise roadside casanova se hume kuch sikhna pade, so better be in your limits. Got it. Aur rahi baat pyaar ki to tum kya jaano mohabbat kya cheez hain, jisne ki bas wahi uska nasha samajh sakta hain, tumhe to bas hawas pata hain ya phir drugs ya sharab ka nasha.

Aur haan humein kuch sikhane se pehle jake apni shakal aine me dekh lo, lipsticks ke nishano se bhari padi hain."

He cleared the corner of his lips and smirked while saying

"Ise hawas nahi, satisfaction kehte hain. You know physical need. Ladkiya marti hain ek raat mere bistar pe guzaarne ke liye. Waise aapko main yahan free ka lecture nahi,info dene aaya tha. Sunna hain toh bolo warna bistar pe koi intezaar kar raha hain mera, you know na line badi lambi hain. Aaj yeh kal woh, you know i am a very busy person."

Ragini said in a cold voice while crumpling the remaining part of the photo

"I can see that, bolo kya info hain?"

Lighting a blunt(cannabis) he said

"Apne jo information nikalne ke liye kaha tha, woh mil gayi hain. Siddharth Delhi me hi hain."

She looked happy with the news and said

"Finally, aap humein mil hi gaye Sid, humare siddharth kab se is pyaasi ruh ko aapke tasavurr ki darkaar thi, shayad ab in judaiyo ke lamhe ghat ke savan ka mausam aayega aur hum do ko humesha humesha ke liye ek kar jayega."

He chuckled again hearing her words and said

"Jaiye aur jaake seedha lipat jaiye unse aur bujha lijiye apni barso ki pyaas ko. Phir nishtha kya koi haq nahi jata payega aapke siddharth pe. Rom rom me unke bas aapka naam hoga. Par aapko toh Yuvraj Bro ki tarah pyaar me pagal hona hain. Chaliye aapki marzi.

Waise main aapko bata dun, aap jaye ya naa jaye, main jarur jaa raha hun, apni Tara ke paas aur aapko bhejate rahenge Nishtha ne kaise Siddharth ko apnaya, gale lagaya aur hm hm. Oh haan, usdin ek picture chut gayi thi. Yeh lijiye unke kuch khas moments ki photos."

With this he gave her a photo of Neeksha and Samarth from their drama competition day. When Samarth was pulling her in his arms, but the one who took the picture showed it like they were hugging each other. Virat again whistled a tune while Ragini crumpled the picture shouting

"Siddharthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... tum sirf mere ho sirf mere. Arrghh! sab jala denge sabko maar denge sabkooo. Woh sirf mera hain, sirf meraa. Ragini Sid ek duje ke liye bane hai sirf ek duje ke liye."
