"HAPPY SUNDAY"

Recap: To save Bulbul from any further attacks by Makhija's goons, on permission of Asha maa along with Abhirika, Acp Vineet took Bulbul with him and also did arrangements of her correspondence study and the stuff she needed… Here Ruhana got engaged with Vinay but something was there which was keeping her away from him.

Now Further….

Abhirika's home…

It was night time, Ruhana was sitting on the shelf of the window of her room and was looking outside at the moon. Tarika who came to give her glass of milk saw her lost somewhere. She moved to her daughter and placed her hand on Ruhana's hairs smearing them.

Tarika: {Forwarding the glass to her} Kya baat hai Roo? Kya soch rahi ho beta?

Ruhana: {Holding the glass} Kuch nai mumma… m just confused…

Tarika: Confused? Kis baat pe?

Ruhana: Mumma main.. {Looks at the engagement ring in her ring finger & keeps the glass aside} Pta nai mumma kya ho raha hai mujhe! I mean technically mujhe khush hona chahiye. Akhir itni der baad hi sahi mujhe ek esa life partner milne vala hai jo mere past ko janne k baad bhi bina kisi issue k mujhe apnane k liye tyar hai. Par pta nai kyu main ye sab!

Tarika: {In a concerned tone} Vinay ne kuch kaha?

Ruhana: Nai mumma Vinay toh kuch kehte hi nai hain, vo bahut ache hain.. {then turns her head to other side} Lekin main apna vo past! M unable to understand why it still haunts me?

Tarika: Shayad main janti hun.. {Ruhana looks keenly at her mother for her answer} Kya iska reason Acp Vineet toh nai?

Ruhana: Mumma ye ap kya bol rahe ho!

Tarika: Han Roo, main bilkul thik keh rahi hun. Jab sab kuch bilkul thik chal raha hai toh tumara past ese baar baar tumhe yaad ane ki vjh Vineet hi toh hai… ye naam tumhe tumara past bhulne nai deta..

Ruhana: Lekin mumma ap jante ho k ye vo Vineet nai hai..

Tarika: {Smiles lightly} Janti hun beta lekin jab ye ek naam hmesha tumare samne rahega tab tak tum us Vineet ko bhula nai paogi jiski vjh se tumhe itna sab bhugtna pada… Kya main nai janti k meri bachi kis dard se guzri hai us waqt! Kya main ye nai janti k tum kitni mushkil se vo hadsa bhulane ki koshish karti rahi ho! Ki kitni taklif deti rahi tum khud ko khudse naraz rehkar sirf isliye ki tumhe lagta tha k tumari vjh se main aur tumare papa bhi suffer kar rhe hain… {Both mother-daughter were now in tears}

Ruhana: Lekin Mumma ye baat sach bhi toh hai….. Maine apni ek bhul ki vjh se, ek galat insane pe bharosa karne ki saza nah sirf khud bhugti balki aplogo ko bhi kitni taklif di.

Tarika: {Noddes in yes} Han taklif toh hui lekin jo hua us baat se nai balki tumhe preshan aur vaise tuti hui dekh kar hui thi.. {Then she rubs off her tears and cupps her face} Lekin beta jo hua usey bhool jao…. Ab tumare samne tumari sari zindgi padi hai… Vinay ek bahut acha ladka hai beta, tumari sari sachai janney k baad bhi voh tumara hath thamne k liye tyar hai… socho agar vo ab tumara hath tham rha hai toh zindgi k har morh pe bhi toh tumare sath khada hoga tumara sahahara bankr…

Ruhana: I know mumma, Vinay ek perfect life partner hain mere liye…

Tarika: Bilkul…. Aur rahi baat Acp Vineet kit oh voh koi aur hain…jis tarah se voh hmari Bulbul ka dhyan rakh rahe hain.. Vo sachmein ek nekdin insane hain.. aur sirf ek naam ki similarity ho janey se vo koi bure insane toh nai ban jaynge na!

Ruhana: Nai mumma esa nai hai… bs ye baat main khud ko samjha nai pa rahi…

Tarika: I understand… lekin tumhe himmat se kam lena hoga… Ek baar Makhija case ki hearing ho jay, fir Bulbul vapis orphanage mein a jaygi apno k paas, aur fir ek baar tumari shadi ho jay fir tum apni life mein busy ho jaogi, fir ye naam kabhi tumhe preshan nai kar payga.. {Ruhana noddes and smiles lightly at which smears her head and place a soft kiss on her forehead saying} Sab thik ho jayga beta… bs ye yaad rakhna k chahe kuch bhi ho jay… main aur tumare papa hmesha tumare sath hain..

Ruhana: {Smiles} I know..

Tarika: {Patts her cheeks} Dhoodh pe lena … Good night…

Ruhana: Good night mumma…

With this Tarika left while Ruhana was again lost in her thoughts thinking about what her mother just said. After a while she too felt sleepy and ultimately drifted in sleep.

Next Morning….

Vineet came home after jogging & found Shamu kakka tied with ropes which were though not tied tight enough but as he was an elderly man he could not free himself. Vineet first got worried and thought that Bulbul might be attacked again. He ran to kakka untying him.

Vineet: {Worried tone} Kakka ye sab!

Kakka: {Signalling towards kitchen} Usney..

Vineet: {Looks towards kitchen & saw everything messed up & a familiar figure standing with a smile, looking at whom he felt a bit relaxed} Bulbul! Ye sab kya hai beta?

Bulbul: {Smiling} Good morng uncle.

Vineet: {with a smile} Morning beta, lekin ye sab!

Bulbul: Aj maine apney hathon se apke liye breakfast bnaya hai…

Vineet: {Almost yelling in shock} Kya!

Bulbul: {giggles at his sudden shock} Relax uncle breakfast hi bnaya hai koi nuclear bomb nai jo ap itna shock ho rhe ho…

Vineet: Lekin beta kakka hain toh vo bna lenge na fir tum kyu!

Kakka: Han sahb maine bitiya ko bahut kaha k main bna lunga lekin bitiya zidd krne lagi k aj nashta yahi bnaygi auu jab maine mana kiya toh phle toh mujhe pani pilaney k bahaney is kursi pe bitha diya fir fir baton mein laga kar rassi se bandh diya.

Vineet: {Looks at Bulbul in astonishment} Bulbul!

Bulbul: {Looks at him with scared expressions but then blurted out everything in just one go} Arey toh main kya karu! Yah ape sara din khali baithe baithe main bore ho jati hu… phle subah ap chle jate ho police station, fir kakka bhi apney kam mein lage rhte hain, fir tutors bhi padha k chle jate hain, revision krne k baad bhi itna time free hota hai. Koi baat krne ko nai hota. Uper se room ki balcony mein baithna ho ya bahar lawn mein usmein bhi apke guards itni restrictions lga dete hain..esa lagta hai k jaise mere ass paas oygen se zada toh guards hain….punters bhi nai hain yahan unsey bhji kabhi kabhi bat ho pati hai… aur Roo di! Voh bhi sham ko free hoti hai aur unse bhi tabhi baat ho pati h kabhi kabhi…toh main itna bore ho jati hun k bs puchiye mat… bs isliye socha aj kuch kiya jaye…akhir kuch toh ho daily ki boring routine se hatkar…. {She pouted which made him smile}

Vineet: {Side hugging her and taking her out of kitchen} Arey baba thodi saans toh lo…. Chlo aao…baki ka kam kakka kar lenge…. {To kakka} Kakka ap zara…

Kakka: {Noddes} ji sahb…

Bulbul: {Asks innocently} Ap mujhe dantoge toh nai!

Vineet: {Smiled at her innocence} Dant? Bhala main kyu tumhe dantne laga? Aur dekho beta I totally understand… and m really sorry k tumhe ekdm se life mein ye change lana pada… But I promise I'll come up with some solution fot it and agar aj main jaldi free ho gya toh I'll be home early…

Bulbul: {Exclaims with joy and forwards her hand} Promise!

Vineet: {Smiles and keeps his hand on her palm} Promise..

Bulbul: Yeahiiiiiiiii…. {She turns to go but then something striked her mind and she turns back to him} Ammm…. Acp Uncle! Ek request kar skti hun plz…

Vineet: Request! Bolo na beta kya chahiye?

Bulbul: Vo main soch rahi thi k sham ko kisi aur ko bhi bula lein toh! Punters ko toh Asha maa shayd aney nai dengi toh kya main Roo di ko bula lun? Plz…. {Looks at him with puppy eyes at which he smiles & noddes at which she almost jumps with joy} Thank you uncle …. You're the best…..

She then ran away & Vineet too smiled at her excitement but then reminded what she demanded. Though he knew Ruhana was engaged now to someone but still there was something which attracted him towards her… He tried hard not to think about her but the more he tried the more he failed…. He then brushed off all the thoughts and decided to concentrate on the cases first… after a while he moved to his room and after getting ready he came downstairs to dinning… Till then Insp. Madan and Shindey too arrived as he had called them with a file to discuss about … so they too were offered to have breakfast …which they first denied but when he insisted they agreed. The moment Vineet had the first bite, though he felt it not edible but bcz Bulbul had so excitedly cooked it, he smiled & told her that she cook well & when Madan & Shindey had it, they coughed. When Bulbul asked them about food they were about to say something but earning a fiery gaze from Vineet , scared by that they lied that food tasted good. When Bulbul had the first bite of her cooked food, she coughed as it tastes bad… Vineet hurriedly poured water for her in a glass and made her drink the water with his hands. Bulbul understood that she was being lied so that she could not get hurt… he was feeling guilty that she could not cook tasty food and apologized them all. Vineet pacified her & told her as it was her first attempt, so it was quite well that way. She smiled a little and meanwhile kakka already had prepared breakfast again. After having his breakfast Vineet along with his officers left for police station and here Bulbul Called Ruhana & invited her for evening to which she after some hesitation agreed.

Little Bud Resort….

Acp Vineet had got an information about somecriminals being spotted ain a resort. He along with some policemen went there. Luckily the criminals got arrested successfully. When Vineet was about to go, someone called his name from behind & when he turned to look owner of the voice…

Vineet: Mr. Vinay! Ap yaha? ….Lunch !

Vinay: Yeah but apka guess adha sahi hai {Vineet looks at him with a slight smile on his face for a reply at which Vinay speaks} Actually business deligates k sath meeting & lunch..

Vineet: Great..

Vinay: Aur ap! Chasing criminals!

Vineet: Yeah but apka bhi guess adha sahi hai.. {Now it was Vinay's turn to get reply} kuch criminals k yaha hone ki khabar mili thi, but they're all arrested now… Its safe here..

Vinay: Greay… but according to me criminals still are at loose…. I mean somewhere around the city..

Vineet: Oh m sure… but you don't worry, they'll be arrested soon.

Vinay: Yeah, m sure {Smiles}

Vineet: {smiles & then remembered something} Ammm…Vo Bulbul ne Ruhana ji ko aj sham invite kiya hai gahr pet oh why don't you join!

Vinay: {Smiles lightly} Sorry officer but mujhe kuch zaruri kam hai aj…

Vineet: { Noddes} I understand… but if you could make it toh mujhe bahut khushi hoti… undono ko bhi …

Vinay: {Smiles} Okay… I'll try…

Vineet: Okay then… see you there..

Vinay: Yeah..{With this Vineet left and Vinay was still at reatraunt… thinking about Vineet's invitation…} Hmm…Aj sham.. {Smirks} not a bad idea…. Thanks officer… {he then dialed a no.} Plan mein kuch change hai…. Vo kam aj sham tak ho jana chahiye….. Vo sab main nai janta bs mera km aj sham tak ho jana chahiye samjhe!... {He then disconnected the call smiling to himself}

Here, Vineet was moving towards his scorpio when his gaze fell on a shop…he reminded something & smiled & excused himself from his officers & moved in the shop with a gift box in his hand. He smiled looking at gift box and after a while he too left from there….

A/N: Toh kaisa laga ye part?
