Chapter -10
. . .
The same day… one hour earlier… the entire team is chilling at a cafeteria…
Except for well.. two persons… :P
ACP sir- "Yeh Dushyant kaha hai?"
Kavin- "Sir ussne kaha zaruri kaam hai tho kahi chala gaya.."
Salunkhe- "arey team k saat hang-out se bhi zyada zaruri kya hai huh?"
Kavin- "haan sir par ussne kahaa usey Gurudwaara jaana hai.."
The officers nod. Divya arrives and ACP sir asks her.
Divya- "sorry sir main thodi late jogai..
ACP sir- "its OK. Aao baitho Divya"
Salunkhe- "waise yeh Ishita bhi kahii nazar nahi aarahi…
Divya- "sir aaj raviwar hai tho… Sikh Sansthaan k charity programmes mei busy rehti hai woh… ussne kaha aapko inform kar doon, aur sorry bhi bol doon.
Acp sir- "arey nahi ismey sorry ki kya baat hai.. aise mauke dobara milenge hume… "
So everyone is having breakfast… some are joking, some are laughing, some are chilling... but just one of them is lost in thoughts. Or should I make it two?
Rajat- "Kya soch rahi ho Purvi…"
Purvi- "Huh- uh. Kuch nahi sir… woh main bus…"
Divya- "arey tumhari pendant bohot sundar hai. kaha khareeda hai tumne?"
Purvi- "woh umm Divya.. yeh kisi ne gift kardiya. Sundar hai na?"
Divya- "wow! Bohot cute hai.."
Purvi- "thank you…"
Shreya- "Lekin gift kis ne kia. Yeh tho puuchiye."
(Rajat clears his throat… well this is almost like teasing. He laughs)
Rajat- "haan bhai hum bhi tho jaane.."
Purvi begins to smile cutely n Rajat is lost once again in her smile. Shreya too is smiling looking at Purvi's innocent face.
Shreya- "Sir woh Purvi ka ek secret admirer hai na… ussne diya!"
Divya- "ooh.."
Nikhil- "wow.."
Pankaj- "kya baat hai.. huh"
Salunkhe- "arey bas! Bas! Tumhara boss yahi baitha hai. aisi batein karte ho tum apne sher k saamne…"
Acp sir- "haan tho bacche hasi-mazak nhi khel sakte kya salunkhe? Aaj bhi nahi huh?"
Salunkhe- "maine aisa kab kahaa boss!"
freddy- "Eeee yeh toast tho jalaa hua hai… kaala pad gaya dekho"
Pankaj- "haha sir… main tho soch raha hu jab DCP sir ko pata chalega ki hum aise masti kar rahe hai, tho unka chehra aisa dikhega… is toast ki tarah"
Everyone including ACP sir laugh…
After having a good time cracking many jokes n having fun, its time to leave…
Rajat gets up and walks towards the entrance. He's so lost in his thoughts that he doesn't notice Purvi is standing near the entrance to the café checking her phone…
*Bump*
Purvi- "Ohh.."
Rajat- "I'm sorry.."
Purvi- "ahh its Ok sir.."
Rajat- "um- so you had a good time?"
Purvi- "good time? Arey sir great time! Bohot mazaa aaya ithne din baad…" (smiles)
He looks at her closely. She has her hair open; she's wearing a multi-coloured summer kaftan. Those matching ear rings n light make up made her look angelic, almost… she finds him looking at her…
Purvi- "sir.."
Rajat- "hmm.."
Purvi- "kaha khogaye?"
Rajat- "umm nahi woh kuch sochne lagaa achanak. Sorry I didn't mean to stare."
Purvi- "haha I know sir. Aap mujhe kyu dekhenge… I know kuch soch rahe the.. bataayiye kya baat hai.."
Everyone else has left. Only these two are left behind..
Rajat- "kuch nahi… bas.. umm tumne iss pendant k bare mei nahi bataaya."
Purvi- "aww yeh.." (smiles)
Rajat- "secret admirer.."
Purvi- "hmm sir woh actually.." (big smile)
Rajat- "bohot khush ho huh?" (smiles)
Purvi- " To be frank I always wanted a secret admirer. But ab jab woh milgaya hai.. gift bhi kardiya hai tho.. khushi tho hogi.."
Rajat- "hmm I see…"
Purvi- "haan sir! Bas woh ek baar aajaye mere saamne. Curiosity ho rahi hai… ki kaise honge woh. Kya karte honge. I know aap mujhe mad samajhte honge hai na."
Rajat- "arey nahi…"
Purvi- "pata nahi sir. Khushi mujse bardash nahi hoti. Isliye aap se share karliya.." (laughs)
Rajat- "I'm glad you shared…"
Purvi- "OK sir.. I think I need to leave. Iss Day-off ka mazaa lena hai na?"
Rajat- "woh tho hai.. byee enjoy!"
Purvi- "bye sir.."
Rajat- "aur Purvi.."
Purvi- "haan sir."
Rajat- "tum aaj bohot sundar lag rahi ho.."
Rajat gives an awkward smile and hurries to leave. (he's scared he might spill more :P )
Purvi too mumbles a 'thanks'. But he is already gone.

Present… Charity home in gurudwara..
The sardar shows him the classroom n leaves to talk to another. Dushyant is standing still… there's a girl standing across him in the class-room. She's interacting with kids; laughing n explaining things… all at once… he smiles… finally! He found billi… his billi…
What should he say? Does she remember him? If she fails to recognise him what would he do? He'd make a fool of himself in front of everyone there.
Dushyant- "Billi…"
The words slip his mouth. The girl looks at him… looking horrified.
Girl- Billi? Kahaa hai billi. Oye Rabba billi classroom mei kaha se aagaya. Oye mujhe billiyon se allergy hai.. oh koi tho mujhe bachaalo. Arey billi hai kaha kaun ho tum? Aur billi kaha hai..
The girl gets hyper n keeps looking around for 'billi' :P
Girl- "arey kuch tho daso.. kaun ho tum?"
Dushyant- "Arey Billi.. main- main hu. Bhaalu!"
Girl- "Hei? Tum bhaalu ho? Mujhe lagaa insaan ho… oye Chacha ji! Boliye tho kaun hai yeh?"
Dushyant is baffled n becomes sad… does this mean she doesn't remember him anymore?
Dushyant- "Billi.. tujhe main yaad nahi? Yar tum-"
Chacha Ji- "oye puttar ji! Arey yeh woh nahi hai.."
The sardar ji is back.
Dushyant- "kya matlab.."
Chacha Ji- "arey yeh woh nahi hai… arey sumeet! Bolo na Laado kaha hai?"
Dushyant- "Lado?"
Chacha ji- "arey woh kudi jo police mei kaam karti hai… wohi tho padha rahi thi na bachhon ko?"
Sumeet- "chacha ji woh- arey woh tho abhi abhi bahar gayi hai. uske gharwalon ka phone aaya.. aur woh chali gayi.."
Dushyant slaps his forehead, closes his eyes, tries to take a deep breath. Billi… kab milogey yar… ek pal k liye tho dargaya main ki tum mujhe bhool gayi… kahaa ho tum Billi… :(
Chacha ji places a comforting hand over his shoulder.
Chacha Ji- "koi gal nhi puttar agle hafte woh fir aayegi. Iss beech aagayi tho ussey main tumhara zikr karunga.. thik hai?"
Dushu takes one more breath to compose himself.
Dushyant- "OK.. thik hai.. T-thank y-you.. " *teary*
Chacha Ji- "oh puttar thik ho tum? Kii hogaya?"
Dushyant- "kuch- kuch nahi… main- mujhe chalna hoga…"
Chacha Ji- "maaf karna puttar, mujhe nhi pata woh kudi kahaa rehti hai warna main address dedetaa tujhe.."
Dushyant- "its OK.. chachaji. Na jaane kyu aisa lagta hai mujhe! Ki woh mujhe kabhi milegi hi nahi.." *sniff*
Chacha Ji- "par-"
Dushyant- "aur agar mil bhi jaaye. Tho woh iss bachpan k dost ko bhulaa chuki hogi.." *sniff*
(Aww huggy dedo mujhe Dushuu mmuuaahh XD love youuu)
Chacha Ji- "aise nahi bolte puttar.. kehte hai kisi cheez ko dil se poocho tho rabji usey zaruur dedenge. Tujhe woh ladki jald hi milegi. Mayus mat hona.. bas ek aur hafte ki baat hai. iss beech main woh nazar aayi tho main tujhe phone karunga.."
The sardarji takes Dushyant's number n hugs him. Dushu leaves thanking him.
. . .
Same Night Ishu & Preet talk-
Ishu: Bhaalu kitna sweet hai. usey tho gussa bilkul nhi aata. Maine kitnii koshish ki unhey annoy karne ki lekin harbaar naakam rahi. I mean- jab mujhe chot lagi thi ussney mera haat thik kardiya. Aur jab mei seedi se giri tho paani lekar aaye. Mera haat pakda aur smile kiya… (smiles at the memory)
Preet: Paani leaaye smile bhi kiya… wow Di! So sweet! Arey di woh pic dikhaao..
*Ishu shows the serious mood wala pic-*
Ishu: Kitne cute hai na.. *dreamy smile*
Preet: Haan Di... serious look huh. Intense! aur aap kaha khogayi. Kahi pyar-vyar k bare mei nahi soch rahi?
Ishu: Shut up pagli! Kuch v bolti hai.. main yahi soch rahi hu. Ki koi insaan itna sweet kaise ho sakta hai- *blushes a bit*
Preet: Di agar woh ithne sweet hai na, tho unhe tang mat karo aap. Very bad Di. Aapko sab kuch pata hai aur unhey kuch nahi. Yeh tho naa-insaafi hai Di..
Ishu: Come on agar mujhe ithna mazaa aaraha hai, ithni khushi ho rahi hai tho usmei mera kya kasoor hai? ab dekho na- yeh jo mazaa aaraha hai Bhalu k aas-paas rehte usey tang karne ka, usey mujhe miss nhi karna hai yar- Let's see destiny mei kya hai!
Preet: O rab ji! Aap kabhi nahi sudkrogiii..
Ishu slaps her arm lightly n asks her to smile.
. . . / \ . . .
Dushyant's mood is all OK soon. Thanks to Kavin, world's cutest n sweetest friend. Ishita on the other hand is disappointed as she doesn't get to spend time with her Bhaalu these days she's working with Sachin, Kavin, Abhijeet… n it's a bit disappointing! She missed his presence.
Few days later- One night-
Ishu is talking to Preet again. Preet is listening intently about how sweet Bhaalu is…
Ishu: "aaj kal mauka hi kaha mil rahaa baat karne ka.."
So she calls him up. Wicked dimag :P
1AM-
Dushyant- "helloo.." *sleepy tone*
Ishu: "hello ji.. yeh kya itne jaldi sogaye? Meri neend udaake?"
(Ishu laughs internally while Preet is jumping almost beside her)
Dushyant- "What nonsense?" *annoyed face*
Ishu: "nonsense mat kaho ji… dil dard karne lagega.." *pouts*
Dushyant- "kya chahiye tumhe?"
Ishu: "aap! Aap ka pyar.. aapka saat-"
Dushyant- "are you mad.."
Ishu: "dil tho paagal hai ji sach mei… aur yeh dil chahta hai ji. Sirf aapko.."
Dushyant- "Kya? Look-"
Ishu: "dekh hi tho rahi hu ji.. dekhliya uss din park mei aapko, blue shirt mei chaagaye aap. Baki officers se ek dum hatke hai aap aur sweet bhi. Aur handsome bhi.. uss din Akash ki lash ko examine kar rahe the. Khud kitno ka qatl (murder) kiya pata hai?"
Dushyant- "Ishitaa?"
Ishu almost drops the phone-
OOPS!
Dushyant- "Ab baat karo. I know yeh tum ho…"
Ishu: "sir! Aapko kaise…"
Dushyant- "kyu ki main apne collegues k numbers save karke rakhta hu. Aur agli bar jab tum kisi ko tang karna chaahogi tho apna phone use mat karnaa.."
Ishu- apna mobi- ahh thanks for the advice…
(to her horror its her mobile not preet's)
Dushyant- " seriously, ithni raat ko mazaak karne k liye koi aur nhi milaa kya?"
Ishu: "sorry sir… aap sweet ho sach mei"
Dushyant- "woh tho main hu, mujhe gussa nhi aata isliye naukri bachgayi tumhari aaj…"
Ishu: "aww I know sir. Aap bohot sweet ho.."
Dushyant- "isliye mujhe ullu banaane ki koshish ki right?"
Ishu: "sorry sir.."
Dushyant- "Its OK.. ek baat bataao? Yeh kavin ki shaitaani tho nahi? Koi shart tho nhi lagaai ussk saat?"
Ishu: "umm nahi.. main-"
Dushyant- "agar hai tho usey bataado.. no! mujhe gussa nahi aata! Never! Ab so jaao bureau jaldi aana hai kal.."
Ishu: "yes sir.."
Dushyant- "good night!"
Ishu: "good night sir.."
Ishu pouts then grimaces..
Ishu: "sach mei kis mitti se banaa hai yeh! Arey isey kabhi gussa nahi aata! Main fir fail hogayii.."
Preet: "aww Diiii haar mei v jeet hoti hai. hayeeee jija ki awaaz, unke har adaa pe main fida.. uff!" *dreamy smile*
Ishu: "chupkar pagli! Kuch v bolti hai.." *hides smile* "lekin ek baat tho hai… bhaalu bohot sweet hai. bohot!"
Preet: "haan Di woh tho hai… ab jija ji ithne sweet hai tho unhe aur mat sataao. Ab tho sach bol do naa…"
Ishu: (smiles) "hmm bol hi deti hu…"
Preet: "wow Di. Mujhe tho DDLJ movie yaad aagaya jo maine kal dekha.."
Ishu: "woh kyu?"
Preet: "arey usmei jo simran hai.. woh aap hai, Dusht-Danav aapka Raj aur main aap dono ki chutki…"
Ishu: "hmm tu tho meri chutkii hai re… humesha k liye!"
Ishu hugs her sister.
Ishu: "Ek minute kal tum padaai nahi kar rahi thi… balki SRK ka film dekh rahi thi…"
Preet: "sorry dii…"
Ishu: "Exams mei fail hona hai kya.."
Preet: "offo come on Dii. Ab Sharukh khan ki film hai, woh bhi Dilwale Dulhaniya Lejayege.. tho kaise miss kar sakti hu. Just 3hrs ki baat hai. usk baad saara din maine padaai ki. Aur pata hai exam bhi ek dum mast likh diya…"
Ishu: "hmm wow… that's my girl… achha tum jaao apne kamre mei aur so jaao.."
Preet: "OK di. Lekin aap aap sochlo ki aap Bhaalu ko kya kahoge aur kaise!"
Ishu: "Oh meri maa. Mere problems main solve kar sakti hu.. tum jaao.."
Preet: "OK di good night.."
Ishu sighs…
Ishu: Main bhaalu se kahungi tho kahungi kya? Aur kaise? Hmm dekhte hai. pehle tho iss situation ka thoda mazaa lelete hai. fir baad mei sochte hai…
. . .
Next day-
So finally today is her turn to go with Dushyant again… to a movie theatre! In disguise! Wow!
(There's a case in which the couples who watched the movie there in that theatre faced suspicious death)
And so Ishyant are now near the ticketing counter outside a huge mall. They are in disguise buying tickets as normal citizens…
Dushyant is in his casual jeans, white shirt, black goggles.. (uff Jaanlewa)
Ishu is beside him looking super cute in salwar kameez. She has her hair open, matching ear rings, bindi, looking sweet! (aww I'm loving her)
Dushyant is buying tickets..
Dushyant- "X-Men ka ticket dena bhai-"
Ishu: "Ek villain-"
Dushyant- 'Nahi X-men dekhenge hum"
Ishu: "Arey ji ek villain'
Dushyant- "Nahi.."
Ishu: "Mujhe X-men nahi pasand..'
Dushyant- "Aur mujhe yeh title hi nahi pasand! Ek villain.. Ek hero hota tho lejaata tujhe!"
Ishu: "Ji yeh aap acche nahi kar rahe hai huh!"
Ticket wala- "bhai saab! Ab girlfriend ki baat maan bhi lo… unki baat maanne mei hi bhalaayi hai…"
Dushyant- "arey inko tho sirf shopping aur movies ki padi hai. arey humesha hum hi paise bharte hai tho humari marzi bhi tho chalna chahiye na.."
Ishu- "hawww! Paise kisliye bharte ho ji? Pyar nhi karte?"
Dushyant- "arey tum tho buraa mangayi.. pyar bhi tho hai.. humesha hai…"
Ishu smiles at this… for a moment it seemed real as if she.. and he… are meant to be…
Dushyant- "thik hai bhai ek villain ka dedo. Do tickets…"
Dushu is buying tickets. Paying money…
Ishu: (low voice) Dunno yeh chor kaha honge sir..
Dushyant- Kis taraf se bhi aa sakte hai.. careful rehnaa..
Ishu: "Arey OH god! Mera bag!"
Dushu turns around.
Ishu: "sir mera bag.. ussmei bohot precious belongings hai mere!"
Ishu runs n Dushu too dashes behind the chor…
Ishu dushu chase that chor n finally Dushu grabs the bag n slaps the thief.
They conclude he's a petty thief not one related to the case.
Dushyant- "valuables hai iss mei- tum bahar kyu leaayi? Jab ki hum duty pe ho! "
He opens the bag.. first his eyes widen..
Dushyant- "yeh hai tumhari precious belongings?"
his lips slowly form a smile … and then he laughs!
Dushyant- 'Hahahahahaaaa"
Ishu: 'Haso mat!" *pouts*
Dushyant- "Hahaha Ishita.. haha yeh hai woh valubles? Chocolates?"
In there in the bag are- fivestar, kitkat, dairymilk, some candies… & a mirror.
Dushyant- "Haha fivestar, kitkat-"
Ishu: "Bourneville bhi haiii"
Dushyant- "HAHAHA" *laughs hard*
Ishu: "Haso mat aapko kya pata chocolates mereliye kitne precious hai.." *innocent face*
(she too begins to smile as she watches him laughing at her)
Dushyant- "Hahaha.. OK. I'll stop. We have a case to solve.. Oh my god! Yar sach mei itna pata nahi kab hasaa main.."
He shakes it off n begins walking back towards the mall.
Ishu: *thinking* "aur mai rab se aur kuch nahi maangungi.. maangungi tho sirf tumhari khushi.."
Dushyant- "hurry up!"
Ishu: "yes sir!"
So Ishyant go to watch Ek - Villian together. In the middle of the movie; they conclude that there's something fishy in the VVIP box where cool drinks were being delivered for free. Ishyant pretend to drink it… the couples who drank the cool drink lose their consciousness. They catch a person who says that the drink is drugged… n they won't remember anything… and it's just a drug that takes them into deep slumber, so that he can access their mobile phones and any other devices they carry. All the persons in VVIP box are big shots who come to watch special screening of various shows. This was a way to rob them…
Later the case is solved. It is revealed that a local screen supplier is behind all this and he is the one who murdered the couples who became aware of this fraud.
. . . / \ . . .
Next day, 4 PM
There's no new case yet. So some of the officers are in cafeteria sharing some light moments…
A very tensed Ishita walks in searching for something.
Ishu- "No no… yeh nahi ho sakta.. kaha rakh diya maine usey… kisi ne dekha bhi nahi…"
Someone calls her by her name…
Dushyant- "Ishitaa…"
She turns around… and spots him..
Dushyant stands with his arms folded; a smile on his lips…
She looks on tensed…
Why is he giving her that look? What does that smile mean? O god….
