AUTHOR'S NOTE: FRIENDS.. I'M BACK.. WITH A STORY ON REQUEST OF OUR BELOVED KRITTIKA DIDI.. DIDI HERE IT IS..

THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR READING MY PREVIOUS STORY..

THE STORY:

We are having the great pleasure to announce the name of a brave, daredevil, fearless soldier of our country.. Senior inspector Daya.. from Cid Mumbai..

please give a big hand for him..

there was no requirement of the last sentence as the whole auditorium started clapping as soon as the name was announced..

Daya looked at his half soul.. his face was shining brightly.. he was smiling broadly.. his expression was telling him that how much happy he was..

We request him to please come up on the stage..

but Daya did not heard the sentence.. he was just staring at him..

Abhijeet: Daya.. jaa..

Daya moved his stare to the stage.. and stood up..

...

Some sounds of utensils.. some other kind of sound which was proving that someone is cooking something were coming from the kitchen..

and with that a voice was coming too.. which was mixed with so much happiness..

"Mera Daya.. aaj das mei ek hai.. kal hazaro mei ek hoga.. fir ek din lakho mei ek hoga.. us din mai rahu yah na rahu... "

the voice stopped hearing another warning tone..

"Abhiii"

Abhijeet(smiling): haa haa.. mai to rahunga hi.. mujhe to rehena hi hoga.. kyuki jitne bar mera bhai stage se award leke aayega.. mujhe use jor se gale jo

lagna hai..

he stopped for a while.. to get a reply.. but he did not get that..

Abhijeet(thinking): ise kya hua?

and he came out from the kitchen.. and saw that Daya was sitting on the couch with off mood and sad face... Abhijeet narrowed his eye.. and tried to scan his

brother.. but got no clue.. so he came to him.. and sat beside him..

Abhijeet: kya hua mere bhai ko?

Daya looked at him.. and spoke up instantly as if his words were waiting to come out for a long time..

Daya: Abhi.. mujhe bilkul achha nehi lag raha hai boss.. mujhe yeh nehi chahiye tha..

Abhijeet(caressed his hair and asked): kya nehi chaihiye tha?

Daya: yeh award..

Abhijeet: kya!

Daya: haa Abhi.. he held Abhijeet's hand.. aur agar milna hi tha.. to hum dono ko milna tha na.. mujhe akela nehi lena tha Abhi...

Abhijeet(strict tone): Daya.. kya bol raha hai.. haa?

Daya: sahi keh raha hu boss.. hum dono mil kar yeh case ko solve kia hai.. agar tum na sath dete to kabhi mai yeh case solve nehi kar sakta tha.. haa yeh sahi

hai ki forefront mei mai tha.. magar Boss.. tum mujhe backup na dete to yeh mission kabhi successful nehi ho pata..

He paused.. Abhijeet was silently looking at him.. Daya felt that.. and looked at him with the corner of his eyes..

Daya: aab aise mat dekho tum mujhe boss..

Abhijeet: haa.. nehi dekhunga.. ek lagaunga khinchke sidha kaan ke niche.. he raised his hand to his Daya.. and Daya hurriedly moved behind..

Abhijeet: pagal kahika.. kya bol raha hai tab se? kya mujhe kabhi award nehi mili ki mujhe tere se hissa chahiye hoga?

Daya: mera matlab wo nehi tha..

Abhijeet: haa.. janta hu.. (softly) aare pagal.. mujhe jab jab award mili hai.. tab kya team mere sath nehi thi? maine akela kab kuch kia? aur without team

support humare liye itna aasan nehi hota hai koi bhi mission successfully end up karna.. (he hit Daya's head lightly) dibba bilkul khali hai..

Daya made a face..

Abhijeet: isiliye mai sochu ki maharaj aise chu chup sa kyu hai.. yeh sab chal raha tha tere man mei?

he sighed and shook his head..

Abhijeet: chal uth.. tere pasand ka khana banaya hai maine.. chal aaja..

Abhijeet held Daya arm.. and pulled him to stand up..

Daya: tum mere liye mere pasand ka khana kyu banate ho boss?

Abhijeet(murmuring): dimag pura hil gaya hai iska..

Daya: kya kaha?

Abhijeet: yehi ki mai tere liye is liye khana banata hu kyuki jab tu khata hai.. bhook meri mit'ti hai.. samjha?

Daya smiled sweetly..

Abhijeet: jadoo ki jhappi chahiye?

Daya smiled broadly this time.. and hugged him tightly..

Daya: boss..

Abhijeet ruffled his hair.. with.. "pagal"

Daya finished his dinner like a good boy as Abhijeet was feeding him like a affectionate mother.. with so many lovable words..

Abhijeet: mera achha bachha.. chal kha le..

haa.. yeh hui na baat.. mela payala bhai.. chal muh khol..

Daya: mujhe aur nehi khana boss.. jyada ho gaya..

Abhijeet: nehi Daya.. itna khatam karna hi parega.. kuch jyada nehi hua.. tujhe khudko thori na maloom hai ki tujhe kitna khana chahiye aur kitna khata hai..

jab mai nehi reheta hu to adha pet hi khata hoga tu.. chal bina khuch bole finish kar jaldi jaldi..

Daya like a obedient child finished that..

Abhijeet(thinking): shahb kab payar se mante hai aur kab dant se.. yeh mere siwa aur koi nehi janta..

he smiled..

Daya: tum kab khaoge?

Abhijeet: haa abhi khata hu.. tu khale pehele.. Daya nodded..

they finished their dinner.. Daya was sitting at his place till Abhijeet finished his..

Abhijeet: chal aab to jaa sone.. ho gaya mera khana..

Daya nodded and was going to his room.. Abhijeet called him from behind..

Abhijeet: Daya sun..

Daya stopped and turned..

Abhijeet came near to him..

Abhijeet: jo sab chal raha hai tere dimag mei.. nikal de yaar.. humare bich kab se tera mera aa gaya yaar.. gum ho yah khushi.. dono aadhe aadhe bant to lete

hai na.. hmm..

Daya smiled and nodded in positive..

Abhijeet patted on his cheeks..

Abhijeet: good boy.. ja soja jake..

Daya gave him a soft hug.. then went to his room..

Abhijeet too came to his room.. and lay down..

Abhijeet(thinking): kitna pagal hai Daya.. he smiled..

Some scenes from the past flashed in front of his eyes...

Abhijeet 's eyes were searching someone.. His superior noticed that..

Acp sir: Abhijeet.. kise dhoond rehe ho?

Abhijeet: aa.. nehi sir.. kisiko nehi.. wo.. aaj sab aayenge kya humare team se..

Acp sir: haa.. sabhi to aaye hai.. saying this he realized that one person was missing.. and he well understood that Abhijeet was indirectly asking for him.. he smiled..

Abhijeet: nehi sab kaha aaye hai?

Acp sir(making serious tone and expression): achha.. sab nehi aaye hai? kaun.. he looked behind where his team were sitting together..

But Abhijeet could not tolerate this anymore.. he straightly asked him..

Abhijeet: sir Daya nehi aaya na abhi tak..

Now Acp sir smiled broadly..

Acp sir: Abhijeet.. tum Daya ka naam lete hue ghabra kyu rehe the? bohot danta hai na tumhe?

Abhijeet(unintentionally): haa bohot..

Acp sir's mouth remained opened.. Abhijeet realized what he said..

Abhijeet: nnnehi.. mera matlab nehi.. wo kyu dantega mujhe? mai kaha ghabra raha tha uska naam lete hue?

Acp sir(patted his shoulder): Abhijeet.. aapne aas pass jo diwar tumne bana rakhha hai.. use to tum khud todhoge nehi.. ek insaan jo use todhna chahta hai.. use to

kam se kam wo kaam karne do..

Abhijeet: sir..

Acp sir(stopping): aur wo haq tumne use already de chuke ho.. aur mera yakken mano.. tumhara faisla kabhi galat sabit nehi hoga.. kabhi nehi.. to aapne aandar jo

thora bohot darr hai.. aapne is faisle ko le kar.. wo nikal do.. bejhijhak.. mere baat to mante ho kyuki mai tumhara senior hu isliye.. par uske baat kyu mane ho yeh

sawal khud se karna ek din..

Abhijeet smiled..

Abhijeet: haa sir.. mera wo faisla galat nehi tha..

Abhijeet came down from the stage after taking the bravery award and so many praise.. and saw Daya was sitting on his seat beside Acp sir with a great smile on his

lips.. seeing Abhijeet he wanted to stand up.. but Acp sir stopped him..

Acp sir: tum baithe raho..

Abhijeet(in fake anger): bare puntual ho tum..

Daya looked down..

Daya: sorry sir.. thora late ho gaya..

Abhijeet: mujhe to laga ki tum aaoge hi nehi..

Daya: nehi sir.. kaise nehi aata? aapko aaj aapka haq mil raha hai.. aur mai nehi aaunga?

Acp sir: Abhijeet.. maine mana kia tha ise aane ke liye..

Abhijeet looked at him with questioning look..

Daya(to Acp sir): sir.. mai kya keh raha tha..

Acp sir: tum kuch nehi keh rehe the.. mai keh raha tha.. haaa. to Abhijeet.. mai yeh keh raha tha ki.. tumko to maine mission complete karke aane ke baad bureau

aane ke liye mana kia tha.. is liye tumhe mallom nehi hai.. Daya ko leg pe goli lagi hai..

Abhijeet: kya!?

He looked at Daya.. he saw that pain was clearly visble on his face.. and he was panting.. he did not notice that before as he just noticed Daya then.. he just noticed

his presence then..

Abhijeet sat near his leg..

Daya: sir aap yaha kya...

Abhijeet(in tensed tone): chup raho.. kaise hua yeh sab?

Acp sir: ek mujhrim ne chala di goli.. aur use jinda pakarne ki chakkar mei yeh baithe baithe do do goliya hazam kar geye..

Abhijeet(looking at him): bohot dard ho raha hai?

Daya nodded in no and tried to smiled as usual..

Abhijeet: kya nehi? dikh raha hai aaf saaf..

Daya: nehi sir.. wo actually.. raste mei cab kharab ho gayi.. aur distance aisi thi ki aur koi cab aata bhi nehi.. to pedel aana para.. to.. wo.. matlab..

Abhijeet(annoyed): tum aaye hi kyu? mai bhag thori jata.. bad mai dikha deta na ki dekho aisa dikhta hai award..

Daya: kya sir aap bhi.. baad mei dekhne mai maza thori aata..

Acp sir: chalke aaye ho yah duadke?

Daya(looked down and said in low tone): bas 3 min baki tha sir..

Acp sir nad Abhijeet exchanged a glance and shook their head in disappoinment..

Abhijeet: abhi bhi.. abhi bhi waisa ka waisa hi pagal reh gaya hai tu.. biklul nehi badla.. ufff.. pata nehi kab sudhrega yeh larka...
