That
conversation disturbed Yamuna very much and that made sleeping almost
impossible for her, she remained awake, the more she thought of the
young girl’s future the more she became disturbed. Finally Yanuma
rose from her bed and slowly walked towards Ibna’s bed; she stood
there looking to frail face of the girl and all of a sudden tears
dropped down her eyes. Yamuna was more worried about the future of
Ibna than may be Ibna herself. Yamuna slowly, as not to disturb
Ibna’s sleep, sat on her bed at her cushion and put her palm on her
face as if to cajole showing her love for that Arab girl. Ibna was
also not asleep to Yamuna’s surprise, Ibna got up and finding
Yamuna caressing her realized that Aatyaa next to her sitting on her
bed showing how much she cared for her. This realization was rather
too much for her and she began to actually cry aloud. In that silence
of night that sobbing appeared very obvious. At that Yamuna also
could not control her and they together continued crying holding each
other in deep embrace. Veena fast asleep was not aware of this and
the two women also did not want to disturb her. This continued for
how long nobody could realize but after some time they stopped crying
and now Yamuna got out of that cot and told Ibna in soft voice that
she should take some sleep and left her.
Next
day morning, while preparing for the usual breakfast; Yamuna was
constantly wondering about how she may be able to save Ibna from the
calamity, which is likely to fall on her. The more she thought on it
the more she became confused. In the mean time, both girls came out
of their rooms and joined Yamuna; that day there was no regular
chatting and laughing and cheering up. They quietly sat to eat, Veena
opened freshly arrived newspaper and continued to read what was
today’ news as if not concerned about her friends ensuing
predicament. This indifference disturbed Yamuna; she prodded Veena
and asked if she has though about how Ibna may be saved from her
difficulty. Veena giving a dry smile throwing her shoulders hinted
that she does not know how at all Ibna can be saved from her forth
coming problem.
“Don’t
tell me that you cannot find a way out for this. You are a trained
person in business strategies and you can workout a plan to find ways
and means to avoid her early departure to her village. If you have
any love for your friend, more than that, your sister, you will not
show this type of cold indifference to ward her problem. Veena,
Ibna’s problem is also our problem; do you understand what I mean
by that? I must warn you that I have not liked your this coldness
towards Ibna.” Yanuma looked furious; that her reaction amused
Veena.
Looking
to the eagerness with what Yamuna was blurting out all that she said,
Veena was now really amazed for the love her Aatyaa was pouring out
for Ibna.
“What
do you want me to do in this and why all this eagerness?” Veena
grilled.
“I
feel Ibna is more like my own daughter, even though it is a fact that
she was not born of me; I feel that I must do something for her and
now is the time and you know Veena, if not you, who else can I ask
for help on this matter?” Yamuna poured out very emotionally.
Yamuna was actually weeping and that touched her; without her
knowledge she had tears in her eyes and now she also realized how
precious Ibna is to them.
“Tell
me Veena, my dear niece, can you be comfortable if we hear that Ibna
is not happy wherever she goes?” Yamuna was talking passionately.
“What
can we do? I do not understand but I shall ask Kamaal if he can help
in the matter.”
“But
that could be dangerous if he does not support any of our plans.”
Yamuna
“We
have to take a chance and there is no other way I see for the time
being.” Veena
All
this conversation was going on in the presence of Ibna but she sat
there quietly not uttering a word; however the conversation made her
all the more pensive and she kept on weeping, sitting in corner of
the dining table. Occasionally, Yamuna, patting on her back, was
trying to give her some moral support.
“I
have a suggestion if Ibna agrees. Then looking to her Yamuna puts her
suggestion; can we propose for her to marry our Shree?” Said
Yamuna; now looking to Ibna pensively, tying to fathom her reaction.
Ibna looked with surprise on her face to Yamuna and a smile shined on
her hitherto sullen face. A mixed feeling of shyness, surprise and
happiness was clearly visible on her beautiful face. Veena now looked
to her as if wanting to dig if Ibna has any objection, there was no
objection from her. Her silence spoke more words than the words could
do. Veena noticed that Ibna was no more weeping and that was the
answer she wanted, she got it.
“How
can we do it? And will Shree agree? Veena was asking to pester her
friend and her friend, now looking confident looked unperturbed on
that, as if, already she had gone out of that place and in her dream
world.
