Thnx to all rvwrs
Let's continue
Srry fr typos typing frm phone
Adi turned to dr Salunkhe who is silently lost in some thoughts with "Salunkhe sir...im srry mujhe ACP sir ki saath aise..."
Freddy stopped the matter with "hum ekbar Abhijeet sir se mil ley?"
Dr Salunkhe nodded with "haan chalo.."
They all moved in found ACP sir already there..Adi entered with a low call as "sir mein wo.."
"Aditya..it's ok..tumne koi galti to nahi ki.."
"sir galti to Daya ne bhi nahi ki.."
dr Salunkhe just shook his head..ACP maintained the silence..Aditya was going to say something more when Freddy nearly shouted in excitement
"sir Abhijeet sir.."
all attention turned to Freddy and following his gaze to Abhijeet who is trying to clutch the bed sheet under his hand and his eyeballs moving under his closed eyes...
A big smile came over all the faces..Aditya called fr the neurologist who soon joined and both were busy checking him when Abhijeet opened his eyes completely..
The next moment he closed back his eyes with a sharp "ahh"
Adi patted his shoulder "relax..marathon mey part nahi lena hey"
Abhijeet nodded then the neurologist queried about some basic health questions and advice a lot then left with strict instruction of one week complete rest and at least 10days no stress..
After he left Abhijeet turned to other people present in the room and smiled "aab muh latkana chor do..thik hu mein aab.."
Freddy was the first one to start "sir ek mahine nahi pure 24din aap aise.."
"Freddy aab thik hu na..pls tum aab ro nahi..Adi yaar mujhe baithna hey"
Adi didn't protested but adjusted the pillows accordingly..
Then Abhijeet turned to his seniors with "sir aaap kaise hey.."
ACP sir didn't meet his gaze but nodded "tum jaldise thik ho jao hum sab bhi thik ho jayenge.."
"sir mein thik hu..aur doctor saab aap..kaise hey?miss kiya?"
dr Salunkhe gave a teary smile with "bilkul nahi lab mey shanti hi shanti jo thi.."
Abhijeet smiled then noticed Rajat and Adi bit disturbed and uncomfortable "Rajat..kya hua tum bare chup.."
Rajat looked at his seniors..ACP sir took the command and ordered "Abhijeet aab tum aram karo..kal pure team ki saath ate hey..tab batein hogi..chalo Rajat..Salunkhe Freddy chalo.."
and he immediately marched out followed by others..
Abhijeet looking keenly at their way turned to Adi who has moved to a corner trying someone with his mobile looking extreme tensed..
"Adi.."
"hmm.."
"Daya..use ek bar phone.."
"wohi to koshish ker raha hu..per phone nahi utha raha.."
"busy hey sayed bureau mey.."
Adi just shook his head..and the sharp shine got something fishy
"Adi kuch baat hey na?haan.."
"nahi nahi to.."
"Adi mujhe sach sunna hey bas.."
"Abhijeet dekho mujhe asehi bahut tnsn hey tum barao mat.."
"Aditya sach.."
"sach sach ka kya rat laga rakha hey..tumhe pata hey tum coma taq kaise pahuche?"
"ha uss din bus se girne ki waqt chot.."
"nahi sbka manna hey tum coma Daya ki wajase pahuche.."
"what?"
Adi nodded and explain the whole including team's behavior Daya's reactions visits and all..
Abhijeet was really looking shocked..
"inn kuch dino mey itna sab..my gawd..phone do apna.."
"arey ph ker to raha hu rcv hi to nahi.."
"mujhe do..landline mey dekhta hu.."
Adi handed him the phone he ranged the landline number
after three rings a tired voice answered "Adi pls..mein kal.."
"Abhie k Abhie hospital ayo.."
"Abhi..Abhi tum ho na..tumhe hosh..tum.."
"hospital ayo.."
"nahi wo mein busy..han wo case.."
"tum arahe ho yea mein discharge leke gher ayu.."
the other end didn't reply Abhijeet commanded "intejer ker raha hu.."
and cut the call..gave back the phone and sighed..
Adi silently goes out to see Rajat standing outside "Rajat tum.."
"has wo sir se mtlb.."
"jao.."
Rajat enters with "siirr mein.."
Abhijeet who was lying with close eyes opened them "ayo.."
Rajat sensed the angriness in his voice. he move forward
"sir...ap theek... mera matlab...ap"
"theek hu..agey.."
Abhijeet replied straight..Rajat gulp down some air..
"sir...aap naraz ..." (Abhijeet looked at him with fire in his eyes)
he continue "sir... hum sab ko aap ki bahut fikar..."
"dikh raha hey mujhe.. isliye kisi aur ki taqleef dikhi nahi.."
He tried to sat straight but felt a swirl and a stabbing pain in his head he grabbed the bed tightly with a shih
Rajat moved forward and put his hand on Abhi's shoulder... "sir... sambhal ke..Abhie puri fit nahi hey aap"
Abhijeet didn't reply…Rajat adjusted the bed upward and made Abhijeet lie comfortable
Abhijeet took some deep breaths and closed his eyes. Rajat moved towards the window and started looking outside
after some moments Rajat started..
"sir aap naraj he hum sab se"
"nahi"
"per hona to cahiye na"
"kiu" ask Abhijeet silently
"hum mein se kisi ne aik bar bhi Daya sir ki feelings ke barey mein nahi socha... humey to bas ye dikh raha tha ke...us aik decision ke karan aap is tarha...hum ne ye nahi socha ke agar Dhruv ko kuch hota.. to is desh ko kitna nuqsan pohanchta..humey yehi laga ke Daya sir ghalat they"
He took a deepb breath
"humey ye nazar nahi aya ke agar aap ko bachaney mein Dhruv kokuch hota to shayad ... ap khud ko kAbhi maaf nahi kar patey... or shayad na hi Daya sir ko"
"to tum log ne soch liya Daya ne mere liye galat decision liya?"
Rajsat stayed silent… Abhijeet continued "tum log to fir bhi thik ACP sir…rag rag se waqif hain wo hum dono ki... phir bhi wo Daya ko aise..."
"sir wo jis dard ki bojh se jee rahe hey nahi cahte wohi dard Daya sir sahe..per sayed unka tarika express krne ka thik nahi.."
Abhijeet looked at Rajat in total silence... in a next moment rajat's cell rang.. and he moved out with "excuse me sir"
Abhijeet sighed.. "dard se bachane k liye dard hi dena tha"
he closed his eyes to gain some strength ...
aftr some minutes he felt the door got opened and some one came in. He looked at Abhijeet whose eyes were closed.
He stared at the face once again remembering those lines…
"nahi ho tum dosti ki qabil"
he thought he was sleeping so moved back to go out when he heard.
"Daya..."
this one call can stop him anytime any where
he turned back both eyes met..Abhi feels like he call a wrong shaved face... puffy eyes... looking week
"Daya...yea kya halat bana liya tune ek mahine mey..idher aa"
Daya moved forward with baby steps.. and Abhijeet try to sit.. again felt a pain but managed but he can't hide his minute change in expression..
"dihaan se..."
"nai me theek hun...tu.." but his words stopped noticing something..
Daya followed his gaze... he was looking at the white bandage on his hand
"ye kia hai...han..."
"kuch..kuch nahi"
Abhijeet suspesiously looked at him then softly touched the bandage..
Daya immedietly jerked away with "ahh"
the bandage is now started turning red
"Daya..yea..baith idher tu..kya hua..koi case tha...kaise lagi bol to..itni jaha ek saath chot..pura haath..kya hua" tension clearly visible in his voice but Daya silently looking away..
at the same time nurse entered with "sir aap ke medicine ka time ho gaya hai..."
Daya said "sister aap rakh dije...me dekh lun ga..."
Abhijeet looked at Daya and said to the nurse "sister ye in kehath se khoon nikal raha hai,.. zara dekhiye..."
.nurse looked at Daya's hand and said to Abhi "jee me first aid ka intezam karti hun..."
and she moved out. Daya: Abhi is ki kia zaroorat..
"zaroorat haitAbhi kaha... ab chup ."...
then nurse came with firstaid... she opened the bandage with care.. but as the wound is fresh... so it cuses pain and Daya flinched
hold Abhi's palm .
finally the bandage is now removed completely... and what Abhi saw .. is more then enough to shivere
HIS whole hand from wrist to elbow having deep glass cuts ...it seems like some one break the glass over his hand...
blood is oozing out from those cuts... Abhi's eyes were litreally popped out... he kept staring for few seconds without a single blink
he looked at Daya... when he heard an ahhhh...
nurse was applying antiseptic now after stopping the blood
Daya's grip on Abhi's handbecome more and more tighter
Abhi was only moving his gaze between Daya's hand
and his face
the nurse said "sir kuch glass pieces Abhie bhi stuck hey..aap ayiye mere saath..hume forecep se niklna hoga wash kerna hoga.."
she turned to Abhijeet with "aap ki medicine ."
Abhijeet nodded "jee mein le lunga...Daya dressing kerwake ayo.."
his cold tone signalled Daya the coming danger
aftr nurse and Daya left Abhijeet with a bit difficulty sat straight..he felt dizzy but cntrolled
"kal jab mujhe hosh aya lag raha tha jaise kisine jor se bulaya ho..aur yea jakham..per kisi case ki liye hota to team mese koi hospital to le jata..aise usne khud wash bhi na krke bandage laga diya..haan team usse naraj hey per itna to krta hi..to kya Daya ne khud..."
he sighed "mujhe chain se marne taq nahi dega yea larka.."
he noticed Daya coming in with turtle steps..he decided he will not ask anything..Daya was waiting fr any lectures not getting any he looked up "boss…" he tried with a smile…
Abhijeet gave a strict look when Adi entered with "Abhijeet tum aram kro min aj nikalta hu..kal.."
"Adi ise bhi le jao..gher chor dena.."
"Abhi pls mujhe.." Daya tried in vain to protest
Only one glare made him shut…
Aditya turned to Daya and look at his hand "yea kya…"
Daya looked down "chalo.."
And he moved out…Abhijeet smiled… "Adi ise sidha gher drop kerna aur kuch dawai dey dena..sayed dard hey…kuch poochna mat kal mein dekh lunga…"
Adi nodded and moved out…
Abhijeet leaned back to rest

Next day its already bt still Daya didn't turned up increasing the tnsion of Abhijeet…
He was trying to get up when he noticed the nurse entering with lunch followed by Daya…
He sat back relax aftr scanning him properly…Daya gave a smile and said "aap rakh diiye siser mein dekh lnga.."
The nurse moved out…
"boss itni late hho gaya tumne lunch nahi kiya..chalo suru karo..meri to aj neemd hi nashi khuli subha to der ho gayi" he said with a smile..
and that smile burnt up all desicions of Abhijeet to be quiet
he strted "haath mey kya hua tha?"
Daya who was busy in arranging the lunch instantly looked up . Abhijeet was looking at him with fixed gaze.."wo..."
" me ne poocha hath mein kia hua..."
"wo aik criminal ko pakartey huey..me ... me gir gaya... aur..."(Abhijeet was staring at him continuously which made him uncomfartable) or wahan bahut sarey glass pieces they to us se...ye..".
he told all the story while looking down which made Abhijeet 100% sure about his suspicion
"kis criminal ko pakarne gaye they tum Daya..."(asked while frowning)
Daya looked up then again lowered his head because he can not meet up with this gaze... "wo me...'
"mujh se nazrein mila ke baat karo... or batao kis criminal ko pakarney gaye they" (in a little loud tone) d
aya looked up but didnt looked directly in his eyes say any thing. Abhi said in suspicious tone"kahin us criminal ka naam senior inspector Daya to nahi tha"
"Abhi..."
"answer me.."
"Abhi im srry..mein..wo.."
"tum khud ko samajhtey kia ho han... ager apne decisions pe isi tarha pachtana hua karey to decision letey hi kiun ho... mar jaaney diya hota us Dhruv ko..aur vul jate duty"

then said in tired voice "kiu krta hey haan aise khud ki saath?"
"Abhi...muje us waqt kuch samajh nahi aya yar...muje dar laga... ke agar Dhruv ko kuch ho gaya to shayad me tum se nazrein milaney ke kabil na rahun..."

"mein kya karu tera yaar.". Abhijeet said frustated
Daya looked down..
Abhijeet shook his head "idher aya
Daya sat on the bed still looking down like a scolded kid
"sabne bahut sunaya na?" Abhijeet asked lovingly
Daya noded Abhijeet noticed tear in his eyes so lifted his face up.. he looked at him with teary eyes
"ro kiu raha hey pagal..tune koi galat desicion nahi liya...sach"

"arey kuch hua to nahi na"
"Abhi mein bahut darr gaya tha..pata hey sab keh rahe they mein dosti ki laye nahi hu"
Abhijeet nodded in no... and wipe Daya's tears...
"sabne kaha aur tune maan liya?haan?"
"Abhi...doctr ne kaha waqt bahut kamhai... Adi ne bhi yehi kaha. ke surgery ke bad bhi tum coma mein... or yahan tak ke tumhari jan...(he stopped with the lump in his troaat) Abhi .." he without anymore words just hide himself in his soothing shell.
after some time they separated both wipes each other tears.. then Abhi said "aur tu mujh se milney kiun nahi aya..busy hun yea bola na...muje kal raat aisa laga ke koi mere pass baith ke ro raha hai... wo tu tha na...(Daya nodded) per me.. kuch bol nahi paya.. or na hi ankhein khol kar tuje dekh paya...fir jab hosh aya laga koi jor se pukar raha hey..per.."

Daya smilingly nodded Abhijeet felt he need to change the mood "acha ab... kia muje bhooka hi rakho ge... chalo tray idhar lao..."
Daya turned to took the tray when heheard Abhi's audible murmur "kitna bolta hai ye... or khali pait muje sunna parta hai"
"boss... tum ne kuch kaha kia? "
"nahi... meri ye himmat ke me tumhare samney kuch bolun..."
"nahi .. muje laga jese kuch kaha.."
"han...itni age mein aisa hi hota hai..."

Daya while placing the tray on bed "acha ab batein band or khana shuru karo..."
he forwarded the spoon towards Abhi's mouth...
"tune bhi to nahi khaya na..."
Abhijeet took an other spoon from tray filled it with rice and forwarded towards Daya...
but both stopped as someone opened the door and entered..
Daya immedietly stood up and Abhijeet's expression changes
