Ye Rahi aap sab ki treat...jiska aap sab ko intezaar tha...

Basicallt story is an extension of the fabulous CID series Abhijeet ke Ateet Ka Raaz...

This two shot short story is after the day when Abhijeet rejoines CID...

In that series we have seen the pain of one side of the coin...this is about the other face of the same coin...

Idea popped up in my mind when I saw AKAKR first and few starting episodes on Youtube...

Hope you all will like my idea and execution...na bhi psnd aaye to bhi review kr dijiyega...pta to chlega na is chotu writer ko...


Hidden Hurt


Abhijeet is back after how many days he himself was not aware...

He was looking each and every thing keenly in the beaureu as all were out for having lunch and he is alone in the beaureu...

Few scenes flashbacked in his memory:p

Abhijeet maine aaj tak tumse kuch nahi manga hai(pause) aaj mangta hun...

An earnest wet tone hammered on his ear drums...

Aisa mut kr mere bhai

Abhijeet closed his eyes tightly which were earlier staring at that center table at which around a month ago his best buddy had said these lines to him...

He remind his own reply too which dipped him in shame:

Ye mai apne aap nahi kr rha hun Daya...Acp sahab or TUM...

The way his brother asked as 'MAI' heaved so many questions inside it...

Like his buddy want to ask what I have done...What's my fault...

Abhijeet jerked his head and move toward his desk...he sat on his chair,took a deep breathe and caress hand on his desk...not even a small particle of dust was visible on it or other stationeries lit a smile on his face...he reminded his convo with Freddy in the party after that mess...

Daya in smile while entering in the beaureu: are Sachin aaj tum lage hue ho desks ki saaf safai mein...Mohan nahi aaya kya...

Sachin in small smile: haan sir subh hi watchman k paas phone aaya uska...tabyt khrb h islie maine socha mai saaf kr deta hu

Daya: chalo mai bhi madad krwata hu

Sachin: are nahi nahi sir sab ho gya hai...(showing him his hands while putting the duster aside)...mai bas haath saaf kr k aata hoon...

Daya nodded and silently look at one desk when Sachin leaves

He come near thay desk with small steps and so many incidents of past 12 years popped up in his mind when they were laughing ,pulling each others leg,working together till late nights,chasing criminals and what not

He wiped out that tear which was peeking out from his eyes and grab a duster in order to clean that desk

The witnesses of that scene just wiped their tears or have a painful breathe and leave the one part of the soul ailing there to have some news about the other half

Are Abhijeet yahan akele kya kr rhe ho bhai...

Abhijeet turned his attention toward a man in his old fifties...his lips flashed a beautiful smile: Salunkhe sir...kuch nahi bus apni bewakoofiyan gin rha tha...

Salunkhe sir: dekho dost...ateet k tane bane gin ne baithoge to ginte hi reh jaoge...aaj me jeena seekho Abhijeet...yahi jindagi hai...

Abhijeet smile got deepned and he nod his head in affirmation...

Ateet k tane bane hi hume aaj me kiye jane wale actions k bare me btate hn Sir...

Both turned toward the source of voice which was coming from the door...

Voice continued: agr hum ateet ko peeche chod denge to aaj ko keise sambhalenge...kyun Abhijeet...aur sir aap smjha bhi kise rhe hain...humare Abhijeet ko to apne aaj se jada apne ateet mein dilchaspi hai...(low tone) aaj chahe koi apni jaan laga de ateet ko haawi hone se koi rok nahi skta...(pause)

Mai theek keh rha hoon na Abhijeet...

In a second both pair of eyes met each other where one pair of eyes were pleading the other one for forgiveness but the other one was blank having so many cracks...they were just lifeless...

Salunkhe sir touching his shoulder: Daya bacche...

Daya came out of his trance...his face was completely red due to pain...not external but it was an internal pain...where he was trying hard not to break down in front of that man...his own words are now becoming a hurdle...he was not able to show his feelings or anger because a day before he has assured his buddy...

Abhijeet tum mere dost ho...aur dost k lie sab kuch maaf

He just gave a look to both of them and leave the place with fast steps...

Abhijeet felt a numb sensation in his legs...he shambled a bit and hurridely hold the table...

Salunkhe sir: Abhijeet ye Daya...

Abhijeet: sir...Daya...wo theek...Uski ankhein wo...

Salunkhe sir hold his hand and took him outside the beaureu premises...

Here Daya entered in the record room and lock it from inside: He attach his back from the door and slowly his knees move toward the floor and he just hide his face in his hands...

He himself don't know what is happening with him...he was so happy when he got his buddy back...he said that thing to him with full heart but now when he is completely back to him he was not able to cope up with the situation...he was confused...very much confused...

...

...

...

Abhijeet came back at home,threw his coat and sit on the sofa with thud...

He was feeling so much tired...still the morning scene was roaming infront of his eyes...those cracked eyes...that painful sigh taken by his buddy were haunting him to the core like he had lost his most beautiful relation...

He move back to his conversation with Dr. Salunkhe...

Abhijeet waqt do use thoda...hum sb ko buht dukh hua tha tumhare us rawiye se...sab hi tum pr buht nrz the...jo nahi tha wo bus ek Daya tha...jo shyd tumhare gusse ka sbse main target tha or wo hi tumhe sbse defend krta tha...jis se tumhari image kisi k b mn me khrb na ho...sbko smjhat firta tha...kabi tumhari tabyt ka hawala kabi tumhari preshani ka...pr is sab me...sabse jada saha to usne hai na...tumhare labz hum sb k lie to fr b thode sehem jate the pr uske lie to koi choot nahi thi...sbse jada chot use pohnchayi hai tumne Abhijeet...bus waqt do use...apne aap sb theek ho jaiga...

Abhijeet still not convinced: pr sir usne to muje maaf kr dia tha...usne kaha tha

Salunkhe sir: haan us chot k lie jo tumne use uske shareer pr di...pr jo jakhm uske dil pe lage hain...unhone shyd ab tk tumhe maaf nahi kia hai

Abhijeet was so much restless...it was already 11 o clock but their was no sign of Daya...that whole day Daya was out from the beaureu...in evening he called him but Daya didn't pick the call...he was feeling an urge to talk with Daya...

And at the same time he heard a click on the door...yes he is back...

Daya entered and place bike keys on the cabinet...

Slowly he realised that lounge lights are on...yes he is their...

Daya took a sigh and move inside...

Abhijeet move toward him with a glass of water and small smile...bhut der jar di yaar ane mein...

Daya: haaan wo thoda kaam...haan (putting his hand on his head)Mangu ko milne gya tha...

Abhijeet glance at him keenly...Daya gulped down on his stare...today also he can't resist those scanner eyes...

Daya drink the whole glass in one go and Abhijeet took the glass to place it in the kitchen...

Daya was confused with this calm behaviour of Abhijeet...he was expecting a big storm of questions from his buddy...

Abhijeet: Daya kuch khaoge...

Daya: haan...nahi I mean haan kha leta hoon...tumne bhi nahi khaya hoga...

Abhijeet look at him with love,no matter how angry his friend was with him...he was always their,caring for him...

Abhijeet: Theek hai tum change kr lo mai dinner lgata hoon...

Daya nodded in yes...

...

...

...

Daya was just moving the spoon in the plate...he has taken only few bites since when the dinner was served...

Abhijeet who was looking at him from the corner of eyes speak up hiding his smile: kya hua Daya khana accha nahi laga kya...

Daya look at him with fiery eyes which deepened the smile of Abhijeet who add some spice masala in already served khichri...lo ab kha k dekho thodi acchi lagegi tumhe...

Daya too smiled in shy but again made his face straight...his heart was melting each and every second after sharing this small light happy moment with his buddy after ages but something was their which was resisting him...

Both finished their dinner, wish good night to each other and went to their respective rooms to have sleep...


Hmmm so how was it...

Btaiyega jroor...

Next update on Tuesday and that's a pinky promise...

Ab chali sone

Good night all of you sweet dreamz...sayonaara
