THE STORY:
"itni der ho gayi. abhi tak aaya kyu nehi Daya?" a brother's concern was there in his voice.. "itni der to karta nehi hai.. phone bhi switched off karke rakh dia hai.. gussa jo hai shahb.. isliye phone on bhi rahe to bhi to receive nehi karenge.. off.. aab mai kya karu?"
"Shreya didi ko ekbar phone kijiye na shahb.."
"hmm? Shreya.. nehi.. uska number nehi hai mere pas.. tere pas hai kya?"
Gopal nodded in no.. "aa.. shahb bura na mano to ek baat bolu?"
"hmm bol.."
"ek bar Tarika didi.." Abhijeet looked at Gopal angrily.. Gopal immediately looked down..
"mere bhai ka khabar mujhe unse lena parega? Daya kaha hai.. yeh mai nehi janta.. to kya woh janegi? use sab pata hoga?"
Gopal did not say anything.. silently he moved out..
Abhijeet shook his head. and sat down.. he rubbed his forehead.. "for god sake Daya ek bar phone karke bata mujhe tu kaha hai.. please mera bachha.. ek bar.. yeh tension nehi lia ja raha hai mujhse.."
He was waiting.. without doing that he had no option else..
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The bell rang..
and She opened the door.. and became shocked seeing the visitor..
"aap? is waqt.. mere ghar?"
"haa.. wo mai.. I'm sorry is waqt aapko disturb kar raha hu.. "
"disturbed nehi.. shocked hu mai aapko yaha dekh kar Abhijeet.. aisi kya baat ho gayi ki khud chal kar mere ghar tak aa geye?"
Abhijeet was feeling irritated.. but he was not in condition to show any anger on anybody.. he just wanted a news about his brother..
"dekhiye miss Tarika mai yaha Daya ke bare mei..."
Tarika cut him in middle.. "mai abhi Daya ke sath gossip karne nehi jati hu Abhijeet.. aapko Daya ne bataya nehi? "
"mai aaapse yeh kehene nehi aaya hu itni raat ko.."
" to boliye.. is bar mere khilaf kya shikayat hai aapka?" Tarika said in teasing tone..
"aap pehele mujhe bolne to dijiye phir aap boliye mai kuch nehi bolunga.. ".. he stopped and was waiting for Tarika to say something in reply.. but this time she didn't say anything.. so Abhijeet started again..
"kya aapko kuch andaza hai ki Daya kaha ho sakta hai?"
Tarika now understand why he came to her.. so she said... "kyu abhi tak ghar nehi aaya?" she said in concern..
Abhijeet looked down and shook his head indicating no.. "nehi"
"nehi Abhijeet mujhe kuch nehi pata.. sach mei.. trust me.."
"no no.. it's ok.. aapke sath uska friendship achha hai.. isliye puchne aa gaya tha.. aab to mujhe kuch batata nehi na.."
saying that he turned back to go.. Tarika was about to call him.. but could not.. She had never seen that man like this.. according to her.. he was rude, egocentric, aakhru, sadu, jiddi.. but today.. he was totally a different man to her.. the anxiety for his brother brought out a different shade of his character in front of Tarika.. He who used to avoid her.. came to her himself today just to ask about his brother..
"kaha gaya hoga Daya? use samjhna chahiye ki Abhijeet tension kar raha hoga.. off yeh larka bhi na.. "
AGAIN the bell rang.. this time in Abhijeet's house..
"dekh to Gopal.. Daya aaya hai syaed.."
Gopal opened the door.. but it was not Daya.. it was Shreya..
"tum? Daya nehi aaya?"
Shreya looked down.. "nehi.. wo actually.. mai aapko ek baat batane aayi hu.. wo Daya"
"kya hua Daya ko?" Abhijeet was in peak of tension.. "haa? chup kyu ho? batao.. kya hua Daya ko?"
"Daya ko Police arrest kar lia hai.. "
"Daya ko kya hua hai?" Abhijeet asked the question in a manner as if he didn't listen to Shreya poperly.. but it was not true..
Shreya repeated.. "aaj ek rally mei Daya ko arrest kar lia gaya hai.. "
Abhijeet became silent.. Shreya looked at her.. Gopal came to him..
"bade shahb kuch karo.. chote shahb ko... aap kuch bolte kyu nehi ho shahb.."
still Abhijeet didn't speak up a single word.. he just went to his room.. and closed the door..
Shreya was tesnsed seeing Abhijeet like this.. "Gopal bhaiya.. aab bhaiya ko aap hi sambhal sakte ho.. "
"nehi Shreya didi.. jo sambhal sakta tha woh to..."
Abhijeet sat on the bed side.. His tears were making their way without letting him know..
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The court area was crowded.. people were moving here and there..among them Daya's friend were also present there..
"yaarr.. maine socha nehi tha ki Daya ka bhaiya Daya ke liye kuch nehi karenge.. after all he is a cid officer.. "
"haa yaar sach mei.. Daya ko churana unke liye to bohit asan sa kaam tha.. phir bhi unhone kuch nehi kia.."
"kya insaan hai bhai woh.. aapne saga bhai se aise koi muh more leta hai bhala? naam ka hi pyar hai.. asal mei kuch nehi.. "
One person was listening everything standing at the corner.. now he thought it would be better to go somewhere else.. it was becoming tough for him to listen any more.. so he went from there..
"kyu re Shreya.. tu to bolti thi ki Abhijeet bhaiya bohot achhe insaan hai? kya hua haa? aaj Daya jail se chut raha hai.. aur aaj bhi nehi aaye woh?"
Shreya was listening everything.. now it was her turn to say something.. "suno ek baat kan kholakr.. yeh jo Daya aaj 7 din baad jail se chut raha hai na, bhaiya nehi rehete to yeh 7 mahina bhi ho sakta tha.. "
"achha? tujhe kaise pata bhaiya ne hi case ko handle kia hai? tujhe bataya hai kya unhone?"
"koi jaana chahe, to jan sakta hai.. tum log janna nehi chahte the.. isliye nehi jante ho.. samjhe?"
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Abhijeet came to the bureau.. Acp sir was waiting for him..
"Abhijeet kaha the tum? mai tumhara wait kar raha hu.."
"I'm sorry sir.. ek kaam mei phans gaya tha"
"aapne chote bhai ko churane ka kaam Abhijeet? " a teasing voice appeared.. and that was obviously of DCP sir..
Abhijeet looked at himm.. but did not say anything.. but Acp sir spoke up.. "sir.. hum yaha par Abhijeet ko bulaya hai.. to hume Abhijeet ka bhi kuch sunna chahiye.. "
Dcp sir continued.. "aur kya sunna hai tumhe ACP? yeh to bilkul sach hai na ki Abhijeet ka bhai Daya.. ek political party ka leader hai.. aur wo arrest bhi hua hai.. aur humare mahan senior inspector aapna power dikhakar bhai ko chura kar laya hai.. that means misuse of the power.. "
"sir aap is mei Abhijeet ko kyu dosh de rehe hai? sabka sabka aapni aapni life hoti hai.. Daya ka bhi hai.. to woh aapni marzi e kuch bhi kar sakta hai.. " said Acp sir..
"bilkul kar sakta hai ACP.. par mujhe shaq hai ki ismei Abhijeet bhi mila hua hai.. sirf shaq nehi.. mujhe yakeen hai.. agar Abhijeet ka indulgence nehi reheta.. to kya Daya yeh sab kar pata? tum jante ho na Acp ki hum cops hai.. hum khule aam kisi bhi political party ko support nehi kar sakte.. hum support kar sakte hai to bas sach ko.. truth ko.. "
"But sir Abhijeet to..."
Abhijeet stopped him in middle.. "ek min sir.. mujhe kuch kehena hai.."
"jee kahiye Senior Inspector Abhijeet.."..
"sir.. mujhe pata tha ki aaj yaha pe aisa kuch situation hone wala hai.. isliye maine aapna resignation letter sath mei le kar aaya hu.."
He gave a letter to ACP sir.. "you please accept it sir.."
Acp sir was shocked.. "Abhijeet.. yeh kya keh rehe ho tum tumhe pata bhi hai?"
"bilkul pata hai sir.. sir mai na ek cid officer hone ka farz nibha pa raha hu.. na ek bhai hone ka farz.. dono responsibilities ke bich mai phans gaya hu sir.. aur mujhe nehi maloom yaha se kaise nikalna hai.. so mujhe cid chorni hi paregi sir.. I'm sorry.. " saying this he went out..
Acp sir looked at Dcp sir.. "mil gayi shanti aapko? aap jaiye yaha se... "
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Daya came back to home.. he was very upset because of his brother's attitude towards him.. he was expressing his feelings with his friend Tarika..
" itne saalo mei ek din bhi mai bhaiya se dur nehi raha.. kabhi school aur college ke excursion mei bhi nehi gaya mai.. yeh soch kar hi darr lagta tha ki mai rahunga kaise bhaiya ke bina.. aur is bar 7 din.. 7 din ho geye.. par bhaiya ko bilkul bhi time nehi mila mujhse milne ki.." his voice was teary..
"mai har pal intezar karta raha ki bhaiya abhi aayenge.. par nehi.. woh nehi geye.. ek bar ke liye bhi nehi.. itni kaunsi bari galti kar di hai maine jo bhaiya ne aisa kia? "
"Daya.. tum shant ho jao pehele.. dekho.. mujhe lagta hai ki tumhe Abhijeet se baat karni chahiye.. tum dono mei bohot bai misunderstanding ho raha hai.. " Tarika tried to make him calm..
"aap ko bhi lagta hai ki sari galti meri hai?"
"nehi Daya.. aisa bilkul nehi hai.."
"to kaisa hai? aap samjh nehi paa rahi ho di.. bhaiya in 7 dino mei ekbar bhi mujhse milne nehi geye.. yeh baat man lena na mere liye impossible hai.. but it happened.. bhaiya mujhse aab aur pyar nehi karte.. mujhe pata chal gaya hai.. pehele mai aur bhaiya.. hum dono akele the.. aab bhaiya mujhe akela kar dia hai.. aab bhaiya ko Daya ki jaroorat nehi hai.. 7 din bita liya na unhone aapne Daya ko dekhe bina.. to pure zindegi bhi bita lenge.. "
"Daya yeh kya bol rehe ho tum?" Tarika said in scolding tone..
Daya closed his eyes.. "I'm I'm sorry di.. "
Tarika put her hand on Daya shoulder.. "Daya.. tum rest karo abhi.. phir jab Abhijeet ayega.. baat karna usse.. chahe to lar lena.. jhagar lena.. par baat karna jaroor.. thik hai.."
Daya neither looked towards her.. nor said anything.. Tarika sighed.. and moved away..
"aab baat karne ko bacha hi kya hai? mai janta hu aab mujhe kya karna hai.. bas yehi ek rasta hai.."
He started dialling one of his friends number.. after some rings.. the call was attened..
"Ashu.. mai Daya.. sun tere sath kuch jaroori baat karni thi mujhe..."...
Friends.. how was it? sorry for the mistakes..
stay blessed..
