Chapter 13: Manjulika

In The Evening...

Sidharth returned from radio station. As soon as he entered his room, he saw Sana watching TV.

Sidharth frowned a little and asked, "Aaj kya karne ka soch rahi ho?"

"Main kuch nahi soch rahi." Sana said looking at the TV.

"Strange! Maine kaal tumhare saath itna kuch kiya aur tum mujhse revenge nahi logi?"

"No. I'm fed up yaar. Mujhe yeh sab continue nahi karna. Now please let me watch the movie." Sana said showing attitude.

Sidharth looked at the TV and asked, "Yeh kaunsi movie hai?"

"Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2!" Sana replied.

Sidharth watched the movie for sometime but took off his eyes when the first horror scene played.

"H..h... Horror movie hai?" Sidharth asked stammering.

"It's a comedy horror." Sana said. "Utni daravni nahi hai. You can watch if you want."

Sidharth chuckled nervously and said, "Main nahi dekhta... Yeh sab bakwas movie..."

"Mere Kartik ki film ko galti se bhi bakwas mat kehna warna muh tod dungi tumhara." Sana said pointing her finger towards him.

"Tumhara Kartik?" Sidharth asked widening his eyes.

"Haan mera Kartik. Jo mujhe pasand aata hai woh mera ho jaata hai."

"Whatever." Sidharth said rolling his eyes. "Mujhe tumhare Karik ke film mein koi interest nahi hai."

Saying that Sidharth went to change.

After getting changed, he sat on the bed. He started scrolling his phone to avoid watching the movie.

But sometimes his eyes fell on the TV and he immediately took off his eyes getting little scared, though the movie was not scary at all.

Sana was noticing everything and laughing silently.

Suddenly Sidharth watched a horror scene by mistake and said getting scared, "Sana koi aur movie lagao na. Mujhe yeh bilkool acchi nahi lag rahi."

"Kyu tumhe darr lag raha hai?" Sana asked.

"Darr?" Sidharth laughed forcefully and said trying to act brave, "Mujhe kyu Darr lagega? Yeh toh bas ek movie hai. Aur main waise bhi bhooton pe believe nahi karta."

"Magar bhoot toh hote hai."

"What rubbish!"

"Main sach keh rahi hoon. Yeh wali Manjulika toh movie mein hai, maine toh real life mein Manjulika ko dekha hai."

"Chal jhutti! Aisa kabhi ho sakta hai?"

"Hua hai. Ruko main tumhe puri kahani baata ti hoon."

Saying that Sana paused the movie and started telling Sidharth the story.

"Manjulika humare college mein thi, meri senior. Hum sab usse Manju Didi keh ke bulate the. Woh mujhe behen ki tarah pyaar karti thi aur studies mein bhi meri help karti thi. Hum dono hi Bengali the na, isliye humari apas mein bohut banti thi."

Sidharth started listening to the story carefully.

"Manju Didi ka college ke ek professor pe crush tha. Woh unke liye shayari likhti thi, aur unse pagalon ki tarah mohobbat karti thi. Lekin humare professor already married the. Phir bhi Manju Didi unke saath shaadi ke sapne dekhti thi. Phir ek din unhone humare professor ko seedha jaake propose kar diya."

"Phir kya hua?" Sidharth asked curiously.

"Professor ne saaf maana kar diya aur unhone Manju Didi ko bohut daanta bhi. Yaaha tak ki parents ko inform karne ki bhi dhamki diyi. Uske baad Manju Didi depression mein chali gayi aur ekdin unhone suicide kar liya."
