CHAPTER 2

The whole team immediately reached at shreya's residence. Darkness and a deep silence was prevailing all over the house.

"itna andhera kyun hai yaha?" Asked abhijeet flashing the torchlight all around.

"Ye nikhil aur Vansh ko to ghar ke bahar hi rehne ko bola tha, hain kaha ye dono.?" Asked daya standing at the entrance .

Meanwhile mayur called them, everyone rushed towards mayur. In a corner nikhil and Vansh were lying unconscious.

"Kya ho gaya in dono ko? Uthao inhe!" Ordered acp .

Sachin and kavin sprinkled some water on their eyes, and both nikhil and Vansh returned in consciousness holding their heads

"Daya, abhijeet, Freddy aur divya tum log andar jao, dekho shreya aur purvi theek hain ya nahi."said acp

"Yes sir" saying this all the 4 officers took out their guns and moved ahead, as the door was closed from inside, abhijeet signalled daya through eyes and the next moment daya broke opened the door. They entered the house.

"Freddy, tum udhar jao, divya tum us taraf dekho, daya tum upar jao.. Main idhar dekhta hu." Said abhijeet and everyone moved in their directions as ordered by abhijeet.

Here acp pradyuman was interrogating nikhil and Vansh.

"Tum dono behosh kaise ho gaye, hua kya tha yaha"? Asked acp.

"Sir wo kuch der pehle Hume shreya ji ne andar bulaya, unhone pizza order kiya tha, unhone Hume bhi offer kiya, hum sab pizza khane lage, lekin usi waqt shreya ji ki kisi dost ka phone aa gaya to wo baat karne chali gayi." Told nikhil

"Aur sir unke Jane ke bad hum teeno pizza khane lage, thodi der me sar chakrane laga aur phir hum sab behosh ho gaye." Elaborated Vansh.

"Sir , matlab us pizza me hi kuch gadbad tha." Said sachin looking at acp.

"Sir, we are sorry, shreya ji theek to hain na." Asked nikhil in a worried tone.

"Wo to andar Jane par hi pata chalega, chalo dekhte hain." Said acp and moved inside followed by the other officers.

Here inside the house divya found purvi lying unconscious in a corridor. She went to her and patted her cheeks, then she called abhijeet. Hearing her voice both abhijeet and Freddy rushed to her.

"Oh my God, ye to behosh hai, divya kahi se pani lao. Purvi, purvi.." Said abhijeet patting her cheeks.

On the other side daya went upstairs. Holding his gun, he was searching every room.

"Shreya ji... Shreya ji.. Miss shreya.. Kaha hain aap, aap theek to hain.?" Calling shreya's name daya moved ahead.

"Aaahhh" someone screamed.

"Ye to shreya ji ki aawaj hai, oh God! " said daya and literally ran towards that voice. He stopped as he saw someone covering his face with a mask holding shreya and putting a knife on her neck.

"Hey, don't move, tum Jo koi bhi ho ,cid se nahi Bach sakte, chaku hatao, shreya ji ko kuch mat Karna." Said daya moving towards him slowly.

"Hahaha.. Tum cid wale mera kuch nahi bigad sakte, ab ye ladki mere kabje me hai, main ise kisi kimat pe nahi chodunga." Said the maskman with an evil laugh.

"Shut up, masoom ladkiyon ki jaan lekar kya milta hai tumhe, chod do shreya ji ko." Said daya moving ahead to him slowly.

"Mujhe khushi milti hai, itni khoobsurat ladkiyon ko is duniya me nahi hona chahiye, unhe to swarg me hona chahiye, ye duniya inke liye achhi nahi hai, main to bas inhe markar swarg pahunchata hu isi me inki bhalai hai." Said the maskman moving his knife slowly on shreya's face.

Shreya closed her eyes and the next moment she quickly grabbed his hand , she bent down and coming out of his grip she pushed him towards daya, both daya and the maskman were unaware of shreya's sudden move. But daya quickly grabbed his neck and caught him.

"Bahut kar li tune ladkiyon ki bhalai, ab apna chehra bhi to dikha de jara." Said daya trying to remove his mask, but the maskman was very quick , he turned and kicked daya in his stomach with his elbow, with this daya startled and hit the wall behind him, the maskman attacked on him with the sharp knife, making a big cut on daya's arm, the maskman grabbed his neck and put the knife on his kneck.

"Bahut jaldi hai tujhe mera chehra dekhne ki han, dikhaunga, par pehle tujhe upar pahuncha du to." Saying this he raised the knife to attack on him but his arm left raised in the air, as someone put a gun on his temple. Daya looked surprisingly at that person.

"Don't move, agar hilne ki koshish bhi ki na to tera bheja uda dungi". Said shreya unlocking her gun. "La ye chaku mujhe de de, ye bachhon ke khelne ki cheeje nahi hai." Saying this shreya snatched the knife from his hand.

"Thanks shreya ji" said daya looking at shreya.

Shreya looked at him but said nothing ,she made the mask man to face her, till then , the rest of the officers also reached their and pointed their guns at the mask man. They supposed shreya to be at his gunpoint but here the case was opposite, the criminal was on shreya's gunpoint.

"Masoom ladkiyon ki jaan lekar tujhe khushi milti hai Han, dekhu jara tere chehre ki khushi." Saying this shreya removed his mask. Daya was shocked seeing his face, he moved near him holding his arm.

"Tum!" Exclaimed daya.

"Tum jante ho ise daya?" Asked abhijeet

"Han abhijeet, ye audience me maujood tha, mere bagal me hi baitha tha, shreya ji ko heroine banane ki baat kar raha tha apni film me." Explained daya.

"Achha, bada shauk hai tujhe film banane ka, ab main tujhe batati hu ki heroine kya hoti hai, aur picture kaise banate hain." Saying this shreya gave him such a tight slap that he directly landed on the floor.

Kavin and sachin immediately caught his collar and arrested him.

"Teri itni himmat, shreya ji par hamla karta hai,?" Said kavin shaking him by holding his collar.

"Humare rehte huye, tu shreya ji ko kharoch bhi nahi pahuncha sakta. Samjha" said sachin in heroic style.

Seeing them trying to impress shreya, abhijeet and daya again exchanged glances.

"Shreya ji aap theek hain na, I am really sorry, pata nahi kaise behosh ho gayi aur..." Said purvi but shreya cut her putting her hand on her shoulder.

"Main ekdum theek hu, tum theek ho? Asked shreya in concern.

"To aakhir khooni pakda gaya, han, mission is successful. Congrats!"said acp pradyuman coming forward.

"Thank you sir, mission is successful." Said abhijeet and forwarded his hand towards acp , but he was shocked as acp did not even look at him, he moved towards shreya.

"Well done shreya, good job, congrats!" Said acp pradyuman proudly.

"Thank you sir." Said shreya and saluted him.

Everyone was totally shocked and surprised except shreya and acp pradyuman.

"Sir?" All asked in unison, surprisingly looking at shreya.

"Yes, meet Inspector shreya naik, my undercover cop." Told acp pradyuman with a grin.

"Undercover cop?" Asked purvi in disbelief.

"Han, shreya is an undercover cop, and now she is joining our cid team. Shreya ko koi pehchanta nahi, isliye Maine is mission ke liye shreya ko choose kiya. Jaanboojhkar use us beauty contest me participate karne ka natak karne ko kaha, taki wo apradhi use ek aam ladki samajh kar us par humla karne aaye aur cid ke jaal me phas Jaye." Said acp pradyuman explaining the matter.

"Inspector Shreya Naik, matlab mission ko to shreya ji lead kar rahi thi, aur hum sab unhe assist kar rahe the?" Said daya with a smile. Shreya too smiled looking at him.

Here kavin, sachin, nikhil etc. Were shocked plus happy knowing that now shreya will be working with them.

"Kya baat hai, beauty with bravery. Dangerous combination." Kavin said to himself admiring shreya.

"She is just awesome." Sachin said to himself staring at shreya.

"Undercover cop, great.. But Hume join kabse kar rahi hai ye" nikhil whispered to Vansh.

Shreya turned to acp pradyuman.

"Sir, jab mera introduction karwa hi rahe hain to pura karwaiye na." Said shreya with a meaningful smile.

"Hmm...pura introduction?" Said acp pradyuman as he understood her words.

"Han to ye hain humari new cid officer. Inspector Shreya Naik"...he paused for a second and smiled at shreya..."inspector Shreya Naik Satam...meri beti." Said acp pradyuman proudly.

"Papa..." Shreya couldn't hold any longer and threw herself in his arms, acp pradyuman hugged his loving daughter tightly, patting her head continuously, leaving all the officers in a state of shock.

As they came to know that the girl they are trying to impress for so long, is the daughter of their boss. Their eyes popped out. Kavin started coughing, while sachin was totally dumbstruck, nikhil's mouth left opened for a while. Vansh was almost frozen on his place.

Abhijeet and daya exchanged glances.

"Papa?" Uttered purvi in disbelief.

"Acp sir ki beti?" Asked duo looking at each other.

The father and daughter separated from the hug. Acp pradyuman turned to his officers.

"Kya hua, jhatka laga?" He asked smilingly.

"Aur nahi to kya sir, shreya ji aapki beti hain, aapne to kabhi bataya nahi ki aapki koi family bhi hai. " said abhijeet somehow digesting the shock.

"Kya karun abhijeet, tum to jante hi ho, cid ki duty kitne khatro se bhari hoti hai. Isliye Maine humesha apni family ko chipakar rakha, meri beti shreya aur meri wife, dono ko khud se door rakha, taki inhe kisi khatre ka samna na Karna pade. Apni family ko ek secret rakha. Lekin jis beti ko main humesha khatro se door rakhna chahta tha, use pata nahi kaise khatro se khelne ka shauk lag gaya, meri tarah ek cid officer banne ka sapna dekhni lagi wo, aur dekho aaj us sapne ke sach hone ka waqt aa gaya hai. Ab mujhe kisi ka dar nahi, ab mujhe apni beti ko kisi se chupane ki koi jarurat nahi hai, balki main to seena taankar Garv se puri duniya ko batana chahta hu ki dekho, meri beti ek cid officer hai."

As he completed his sentence his eyes got filled with tears, shreya too became emotional .

"Papa! " she lightly pressed his shoulder.

Everyone else present there, were silently watching the sweet and emotional bonding of a father-daughter. They felt their eyes getting wet. To make the atmosphere light pankaj came forward.

"Sir aaj ka din to bahut khushi ka din hai, humara mission successful raha, itna khatarnaak serial killer pakda gaya, acp sir aaj itne dino baad apni beti se mile, aur aaj se shreya ji humari cid team ko join kar rahi hain, sir ek sath itni sari khushiyan, sir Hume to jashn manana chahiye, ek badi si party to banti hai sir." Pankaj said rubbing his palms to each other to suppress his excitement.

"Han sir, itni sari khushiyan ek sath, badi na sahi ek choti si party to banti hi hai." Said purvi smilingly joining pankaj.

"Han sir ,we want party, party, party." Divya, Vansh and mayur too started supporting purvi and pankaj.

Abhijeet and daya were smiling, they were silent but their hearts were too shouting for party party, like their impatient juniors.

"Are, are, ek minute, shant ho jao sab, ye kya party party laga rakha hai." Said acp in fake anger. Everyone became silent.

Shreya looked at their fallen faces and then she looked at his father.

"Arey, aap log chinta mat keejiye, mere papa, yani ki aap ke acp sir to aise hi hain, but don't worry main dungi party sabko. Aakhir I am joining cid Mumbai, mera pehla undercover mission successful raha, " she looked at acp, "koi aur Kare ya na kare but mujhe apni choti choti achievements ko celebrate Karna bahut pasand hai. To main de rahi hu aap sab ko ek choti si party, kal sham ko mere asli ghar yani ki aapke dear acp sir ke ghar pe." Shreya said with a joyful smile.

"Yaayyy.." Everyone cheered for her and clapped in happiness.

"Arey, arey shreya... Abhi to Maine in sabko introduce bhi nahi karaya, lekin lagta hai tum aate hi in shaitano ki toli me shamil ho gayi ho." Said acp pointing at his officers.

"Shaitan?" Asked shreya in confusion.

"Aur nahi to kya, ye sab tumhe bade sidhe lagte hain, ye hain sub-inspector pankaj, ek makkhi bhi maar le to janab ko party chahiye." Said acp pointing at pankaj, who made a face on his comment. Shreya smiled at him, and acp introduced everyone to her one by one. Then he stopped at duo.

"Aur ye hain cid ke heere, Sr. Inspector abhijeet and Sr. Inspector daya." Acp said proudly introducing them to shreya.

"Ohhh... To ye hain aapke wo do favorite sipahi, ..hmm"..she turned to abhijeet, "aapko pata hai sir, papa aap dono ki kitni tareef karte hain, jab bhi wo mujhse Milne aate the, aur main cid ke bare me kuch bhi puchti to bas aap dono ke bare me hi batate the, ki agar cid officer ho to inspector abhijeet aur daya ki tarah ho. Maine bhi soch liya tha ki papa ko aap dono ke jaisa bankar dikhaungi. I am so pleased to meet you." She said shaking hand with abhijeet.

Then she turned to daya.

"Aur daya sir, aapko pata hai..." But she stopped as she noticed blood oozing out from his arm. "Oh my God, sir , you have got a cut..kitna khoon nikal raha hai." She said holding his arm. Daya smiled sweetly on her concern.

"I am fine, halka sa jakhm hai... Chalta hai." He said looking at her, shreya looked up into his eyes. Then she turned to acp.

"Papa, inspector daya to bilkul waise hain jaisa aapne bataya tha, apni bilkul parwaah nahi karte." She said nodding her head in disappointment. Then she turned to daya.

"Sir, aise chote chote jakhmo pe agar dhyan na diya Jaye to wo aur gehre ho jate hain. Aap 2 minute rukiye main first-aid kit lekar aati hu."

She said and went to bring the first-aid kit. The way she said to him "aap rukiye" daya couldn't refuse her.

All the other officers left, except acp and duo. Shreya did dressing of daya's wound. Daya was silently sitting there. It was true that when he first saw her, he fell for her beauty, but now there was something more beautiful in her, which was attracting daya towards her. Her beautiful heart. When she was holding his arm and applying medicine on his wound with her soft touches, daya was somewhere trying to identify the emotion rising in his heart only for her.

Daya looked at abhijeet, who smiled at him meaningfully glancing at shreya, daya understood why abhijeet is smiling, but he just ignored him.

"Ye ho gayi aapki dressing, now please take care sir." Said shreya closing the first-aid box..

"Are don't worry, shreya ji, ab to daya apne is jakhm ka kuch jyada hi khayal rakhega, hai na daya." Said abhijeet with a naughty grin. Daya felt uneasy with his words.

"Umm...Han , main pura khayal rakhuga, aap chinta na kare." Said daya looking at shreya.

"Arey, sir aap dono mujhe'ji' kyun bula rahe hain, please sir mujhe aap mat boliye, sirf shreya hi kahiye. Aap dono to mere senior hain na." Said shreya requesting to them.

"OK shreya." Said abhijeet with a sweet smile, daya too just smiled at her in answer.

"Sir , main bahut excited hu aap logo ke sath kaam karne ke liye, waise kal aap log party me aa rahe hain na." Asked shreya to duo.

"Han, bilkul, hum dono jaroor aayenge." Said abhijeet.

"Han waise bhi, kiski itni majaal Jo acp sir ki beti ki party na attend kare." Said daya trying to be a little friendly to her.

Shreya simply smiled at his comment. After some more chit chat duo too left.

Shreya turned to acp

"Hmm..acp sir, ab itna bhi mat muskuraiye, ghar chaliye, Mrs. Pradyuman ne aapki khatirdari ki achhi taiyari ki hai." Shreya said in a sarcastic way.

"Achha, to chaliye hum bhi dekhte hain, humari khatirdari ki kya taitariyan ki hain, aapki Mata ji ne." Acp too replied in sarcasm. Shreya laughed at his comment.

"Maa aapse bahut naraj hain, aur shayad thodi si mujhse bhi." Shreya said trying to be a little serious, then they both looked at each other.

"Par hum unko mana hi lenge, humesha ki tarah." Both said in unison and shared a hi-five, and then shreya hugged her father cutely.
