My Birthday Song Page #2

---

you can just replace the old one

and move on.

If only life was like that.

One could replace their problems

in the blink of an eye.

And move on, like nothing ever happened.

But in reality,

whenever a problem arises...

It takes its pound of flesh.

You can run from

one holy place to another...

But as you sow, so shall you reap!

How else will a person atone his sins?

One can't replace his problems

all his life.

What you see is an illusion,

and what you don't is real.

Youre surrounded by darkness,

there is no end to this night.

I am not me.

You are not you.

A single truth remains hidden

in all the lies.

As the dark clouds hide the sun,

they whisper a moonless night!

Your Sandy is ready, Sir!

span style="style.default1"My eyes have woven a dream,/span

span style="style.default1"And in this dream stands a man, wounded/span

Happy Anniversary Mr. Kaul.

span style="style.default1"Shattered memories,/span

span style="style.default1"splashed across a mirror/span

span style="style.default1"Her breath of longing/span

span style="style.default1"gathered on a cold floor/span

span style="style.default1"My lines of destiny have forsaken me/span

span style="style.default1"Running off and crushing my future/span

span style="style.default1"This wounded dream within me/span

span style="style.default1"Will destroy me,/span

span style="style.default1"becoming a reflection of my being/span

Madhu, see who's at the door.

Hello, Sir, happy birthday!

Ma'am, Sir is here!

How come you're here?

I was just passing by,

thought Id ask about granny.

Oh! I just got here too.

I was picking up

some groceries for granny.

Granny! Look whos here to see you!

Happy birthday, daddy!

Hey, kiddos...

What gift will you give me today?

No, silly! We are supposed to

give something to him today.

Come here, son!

Coming.

Hello, Granny.

Hello, son.

May you live a long life!

But Im feeling so guilty

that its your birthday

and Ritu has to be here with me.

Sorry, son.

Have you taken your medicines?

Yes, I have.

You rest for a while, Ill be right back.

Son, have some tea before you leave.

Sure.

Okay, Vicky, listen.

I'll have to hang up.

Ill speak to you later.

Who was it?

You hung up very abruptly.

Why do you look so scared?

No, Im not.

Sure?

Youre not hiding anything from me?

Nothing at all.

Whats all this?

Whats going on?

I saw you.

I saw the both of you together.

You were with Vicky!

I always knew there was something going on

between the two of you.

But you were buying groceries, right?

What is this whole deal with Sandy?

Tell me, what is it?

Tell me!

What are you trying to prove?

That Im going mad?

You really want to know?

Wait.

Three nights and four days

in Bali for all of us.

Dude, Bali! Three nights, four days.

I wanted to do

something special for your birthday.

Thats why I had gone to meet him.

Im not having an affair with Vicky.

After all these years?

Vickys friend.

I had gone to meet her at the hotel.

We both were talking, and...

Her head hit the edge of the table.

One minute.

Did you inform the police?

No.

I was really scared,

so I ran away from there.

But nobody saw you both together, right?

No.

We were alone in her room.

Why did you meet a friend's friend

alone in a hotel room?

I...

Tell me the truth.

Ritu...

Nothing like that happened today.

Today?

Today?

That means something has happened before!

Youve met her before?

Seven or eight years ago.

After that I never met her again.

Youve got it all wrong, I...

I never met her again.

I...

I'm sitting here,

planning your birthday party,

while youre off having fun

with a woman in a hotel room

I...

I had gone to tell her

not to come to the party.

What?

You invited her to the party?

No! It wasn't me, it was Vicky.

I had only gone to tell her not to come,

because I had a terrible nightmare--

Stop all this nonsense!

All these years

Ive been ignoring your affairs...

Just to maintain peace.

I know exactly what you were up to.

That's why you weren't answering

my calls, right?

You'd called?

When?

How does it matter when?

But I didnt hear the phone ring.
