SANI- HEY.. YES I HAVE SENT A FRND REQUST LONG BACK & A MESSAGE TOO BY NAME OF 'ISHA SHARMA'
NOT WASTING MUCH TIME.. LETS JUMP INTO THE STORY..
ENJOY(wink)!
There was utter silence in the room. Abhijeet was lying in his bed covered with the blanket. Slowly slowly Abhijeet opened his eyes. He had gained his conscious, he had a terrible pain in his head aLong with suome pricking sensation on his chest & hands. To find put the reason he looked at himself & he realised that he was still in his last nights sherwani. He tried to recollect last nights incident but all he could remember was... 'nothing..' Holding his head with one hand & taking support of the other he tried to get up... but he found himself to heavy... so he dropped the idea... he dint knew where were others. what had happened last night. He tried concentrating hard... this made his head more terribly. In the process he dint realise when he drifted into sleep...
Half an hour later, Abhijeet's sleep broke by some noise of glass. He tossed in his bed, to find some one leaning beside his bed table lamp. Abhijeet smiled to himself as he knew who it was... "Dayaaa.." he slowly mumbled through his sleepy voice, & patted on his bed beside him... But there was no response from him... This irritated him... without thinking twice he pulled Daya's hand & dragged him in his blankets... & suddenly he smelled some feminine perfume... astounded he opened his eyes to find Tarika in his arms with her eyes tight shut... at first he was shocked to find her in his bedroom... but her face expression made him smile... living in the same position for few more secnds he acted as if he was in shock & stammered while saying, "Ta-Tarika jii! aap-aap yaha.."
Tarika(still eyes closed tight)- Abhijeet isse pehle koi aajaye aur hume aise dekh le plzz mjhe chodo...
Abhijeet abruptly left her which made her fall on his chest... & the situation got more intense... Abhijeet could sense Tarika's tension... he could hear her heartbeats speed up... her hands were trembling... she tried to get out of the bed but due to nervousness all of her tactics failed...
Abhijeet(controlling his laughter)- ek-ek min... main pehle uthta hu... fir aap-aap...
Tarika controlling herself stayed in bed & waited for Abhijeet to get down... Abhijeet got out of the bed & moved in washroom as he dint had the courage to face her... Tarika too thanked in her mnd as even she dint wanted to face Abhijeet now...
A few minutes later as Abhijeet arrived out of washroom he found his bedroom filled with people... & was taken aback by the crowd...
Abhijeet(drying his face with a towel)- yeh kya hai...? mere room me koi mela laga hai kya? mjhe kisine bataya nhi...
Daya- yaaarrrr.. Abhi.. kaise ho tum?
And he gave him a rib-breaking hug!
Abhijeet(in pain)- yaarr ab tak thik tha.. magar ab mera dum aghut rha hai..!
Shreya(glaring at Daya)- Daya bhi na... humesha aise hi krte hai.. saamnewale ko kitna dard hota hai iska khayal hi nhi karte...
Purvi- ha yeh tujhse acha aur kaun jaan sakta hai...
Now the glare waas diverted towards Purvi... who gave a apologetic smile...
Daya had by now left Abhijeet who was rubbing his chest... he moved towards to his bed & sat there...
Purvi(sitting beside him)- bhai.. ab aap kaise hai?
Abhijeet- abhi toh thik hu bas..(holding his head) sar me bahut dard ho rha hai...
Shreya- main aapke liye nimbu paani lekar aati hu... (& she moved out)
Tarika(hesitantly)- er.. main kuch khaane k liye laati hu...
Now Daya too sat beside Abhijeet & kept a hand on his shoulder...
Daya- aur kya haal hai bhai?
Abhijeet- yeh tu mjhe bata...
Daya(confused)- matlab?
Abhijeet- matlab yeh k mjhe kya hua? yeh mere sar me itna dard kyu ho rha hai? aur kal raat party me kya kya hua?
Daya & Purvi stared at eachother exchanging astonished looks...
Purvi- ma-matlab.. bhai.. aapko kuch yaad nhi?
Abhijeet(holding his head)- nhi.. bahut koshish ki.. but kuch yaad nhi aarha...
Daya- seriously Abhijeet... tumhe kuch bhi yaad nhi?
Abhijeet(with a blank face)- nhi Daya... mjhe sachme kuch yaad nhi.. kyu kya hua?
Daya & Purvi exchanged looks...
Abhijeet(in tension)- kya hua? tum dono aise kyu dekh rhe ho? aur.. (holding his head) yeh mere sar me itna dard kyu hai?
Daya- wo Abhi.. baat yeh hai ki... kal kisine tumhaare drink me nashe ki da-dawai mila di thi...
Abhijeet looked horrorstruck! gasping he looked at Purvi to confirm Daya's statement... Purvi nodded her head in conformation...
Abhijeet got up from his bed with a jerk... running his hand through his hair makking it messy he cast a tensed look at Daya & Purvi... then holding Daya's hand he pleads, "Daya... tum-tum sach keh rhe ho.. tum jante ho mjhpar yeh sharab aur nashili dawai bahut buri tarah asar krti hai..."
Purvi- ha.. wo toh kal raat hi pata chal gaya...
Abhijeet- ka-kal ra-ra-raat ma..matlab? aisa kya kiya kal raat maine?
Daya- yeh pucho kya nhi kiya.. Salunkhe sir ko tumne buddha kaha
Abhijeet(covering his mouth)- what! nhi nhi.. main Salunkhe sir ko aise nhi bol sakta...
Daya- but tumne bola boss... aur wo bhi mike me sabke saamne...
Abhijeet- nhiiiii..! wo toh mjhe kaccha chaba chaenge! (sitting with a thud on floor) ab kya karu main...
Purvi- yeh toh kuch bhi nhi hai.. aapne ACP sir ko bhi kya kya kaha...
Abhijeet(widening his eyes)- A-ACP sirrr... un-unko kya kya kaha maine...
Daya- tumne hamara wo ACP toh band bajaye wala secret reveal kar diya..
Abhijeet- oh shittt! mar gaye..! ab toh main gaya.. hogaya mera court martial!
Daya(ruffling Abhijeet's hair)- picture abhi baaki hai mere dost...
Abhijeet- matlab?
Daya- matlab abhi tak tumne main villian ke baare me pucha hi nhi...
Abhijeet- main villian?
"DCP sir..." said Purvi clearing his confusion
"shitt! shit! shit! bas unhi ki kami thi!" said Abhijeet holding his head between his hands in tension
Daya & Purvi too exchanged look of worry. Then Abhijeet suddenly looked at both of them & asked, "lekin... sochnewali baat yeh hai... mere drink me nashe ki dawa milayi kisne?"
Now atlast.. they had to face the question which they dint wanted to... Purvi chewed her lower lip in nervousness... while Daya wiped his head which consisted of sweat...
Abhijeet- tum dono chup kyu ho? bolo toh... kisne milaya mere drink me nashe ki dawa...? aur kyu?
Daya- Abhi-abhijeet... tum tum abhi aaram karo... hum iske baare me baad me baat krnege.. thik hai chalo Purvi...
Both got up & were about to leave the room when, "ruko dono.." said Abhijeet in stern voice..
Both got freezed in their places.
Abhijeet(standing up)- dono baitho
Both obediently sat at their previos places. Abhijeet stood in front of them as if he was some strict maths teacher & they were his notorious students
Abhijeet(keeping his hands on waist)- ab batao kisne kiya yeh sab.. aur kyu?
Purvi was rubbing her hand in nervousness... Daya was looking everywhere except at Abhijeet
Abhijeet(In stern voice)- Purvi.. tumne...
Purvi(widening her eyes & jumping in her place)- nahi nahi bhai nhi... main kyu karu yeh sab...
Abhijeet(eyeing at Daya)- shayad kisike kehne par...
Daya-ke-kaisi baate kar rho boss.. bhala hum kyu karenge yeh sab...
Abhijeet(in a bit high pitch)- toh fir kisne kiya yeh sab?
There was pin drop silence in the room...
Abhijeet(frustrated) ohhkk.. to tum dono nhi bataoge.. fine.. main kisi aur se puch leta hu...
Saying so he was about to exit the room when both screamed togather, "Rajat ne kiya yeh sab.."
Abhijeet froze in his place... & turned towards them... he moved back near them
Abhijeet- tum logo ko kaise pata.. yeh Rajat ne..
Daya- kal raat usi ne confess kiya...
Abhijeet(gritting his teeth)- aur main jaan sakta hu yeh 'mahaan kaarya' (widening his hands on 'mahaan') unhone karne ka parakram kyu kiya?
Purvi- err... bhai wo baat yeh hai ki... actually unki koi galati nhi hai.. but sab ulta phulta hgaya...
Abhijeet(Raising his hand)- dekh Purvi.. wo tumhara pati hai.. but tum uska galat kaam me sath do yeh sahi nhi hai...
Daya(making Abhijeet sit)- Abhi... tu pehle yaha baith.. aur shant ho jaa pehle...
Abhijeet- butt...
Daya- shshsss... pehle tu fresh hojaa, kuch khaa le, fir tab tak Rajat aajaega, direct ussise baat krna.. sab honge waha.. hum sabko bhi usne nhi bataya isske piche ka raaz
Abhijeet dint say anythng.. it was hard for him to drink iin the situation...
Daya keeping his hand on his shoulder & sitting on his knees in front of Abhijeet he said, "dekh Abhi... baat jo bhi, mjhe nhi lagta ussne kisi galat iraade se kiya hoga... gussa mjhe b pehle bahut aaya tha... maagr raat bhar maine iss baare me socha hai, wo tumhaare sath aise kyu krega bolo..."
Abhijeet kept quite.. it was visible through his expressions that his anger was cooling a bit...
Daya- jo bhi ho, pehle usski baat shanti se sunna,, agar wo galat nikle toh hum sath me milkar dhoenge usko thik hai(& gave a mischevious wink)
Abhijeet nodded smiling fr first time when they had started discussing the topic
Purvi(clearing her throat)- ahem ahem... dho dena.. but baadme hopsital ka kharcha bhi aapko hi karna padega.. aapke jiju hai wo...
Daya(looking at Abhijeet unknowingly)- yeh humse baat kar rhi hai...
Abhijeet- nhi.. hum isse nhi jante...
Purvi- hoooooo! cheater...! baat hi nhi karungi main aap logo se!
Then DUO laughed loudly... & the three siblings hugged eachother tightly...
EVENING:
Everyone is seated in the hall where last night the party was conducted. The decoration is still in its place. Abhijeet, Daya are chatting about sumthng & laughing in their own.
Abhijeet is now fine, however he has a bit pain in his head still. He has changed in his black trackpants & a white oversized t-shirt. Due to recent shower his hair are still wet, water is trickling down his hair... in all making him look more sexy!
Tarika & Shreya are teasing Purvi even they are in hall a bit away from DUO, juniors like Vineet, Freddie, Pankaj & Vivek are in balcony having their own fun. ACP & Salunkhe are busy in their own chit chat. Actually everyone is waiting for the person to arrive who was culprit of yesterday's crime...
A few minutes later the door bell rings, everyone turn silent & look at eachother. Purvi gathering her courage opens the door... there stood with Rajat in his grey t-shirt with a collar &black pants. His face appeared dull, looking at Purvi some emotions flickered in his eyes, but as he entered in, looking at the people he lost his courage...
He stood at the doorway hesitantly , not knowing wat to do..
"Aao Rajat.. baitho.." said Abhijeet directing towards the sofa to sit..
Rajat obeyed him without any arguement...
"arreee bhai Rajat k liye kuch thanda wagyara lekar aao..." said Daya in his grin, making the situation a bit light.
Shreya & Purvi moved in kitchen to get something for Rajat.
Rajat sat on sofa, silently. ACP & Salunkhe too joined him on sofa. They were sitting beside him. While Abhijeet & Daya occupied seats opposite him.
The remaining places of sofa were filled by the junior officers. Tarika stood behind Rajat i.e., opposite to DUO. Everyone had their eyes fixed on Rajat... A few moments later Purvi arrived with a glass of beverage, & kept it in frnt of Rajat. Rajat looked at it & then gave a questioning look to Purvi..
"cold coffee hai..." said Purvi in her low innocent voice
Rajat then stared at the drink. He dint even touch it...
"Pee lo... isme koi nashe ki dawa nhi milayi gayi hai..." said Abhijeet in a stern voice
Rajat took the glass in his hands without making an eye contact with him.. he took a large sip & gulped it down. Then clearing his throat he managed to look up.. but still dint make an eye contact. & started his confession...
"Sir.. actually baat yeh hai ki.." he paused... nervously he ran his hands through his hair.. making it messy... Tarika who was standing behind him kept a hand on his shoulder to encourage him... Rajat then spoke with more confidence this time.. as if Tarika had transferred some of her energy to him.
"sir.. shuru se batata hu aapko.. actually.. maine uss raat di ke fone me aapki aur di ki chat padh li thi... aur main samajh gaya ki aap dono ka koi scene chal rha hai... magar main yeh bhi janta tha ke aap yeh baat khud kabool nhi krnege... toh aap dono ka bhanda phodne k liye maine plan banaya... party ki shaam yani kal, di jab apne room me tayar ho rhi thi tab maine unse kaha ki Salunkhe sir ne unhe lab bulaya hai kuch urgent kaam hai... aur di ko lab chodkar aaya..."
"Dr. Tarika ne pucha nhi ki Salunkhe saab ne unke fone par call kyu nhi kiya?" asked Daya
Rajat- pucha tha.. but maine kaha k unka fone out of reach aarha hai toh mjhe call krke unhone msg dene kaha hai...
then he looked at Daya, who now had an xpression of satisfaction so Rajat continued,
"Di ko lab chodne k baad main baba ko lekar party me aagya.. aur mauka dekhke maine Abhijeet sir ke drink me nashe ki dawa mila di... maine socha tha lab ko lock dekhkar di Dr. Salunkhe ko call kregi. Salunkhe sir kahnge wo party me hai toh Di bhi sidhe party me aajaegi.. aur Abhijeet sir bhi nashe me honge toh Tarika di ko dekhte hi dil ki baat zubaan par bejijhak(without hesitance)aajayegi..."
He was silent for few seconds... as if giving everyone time to engulf the story he had just narrated... Then looking in Abhijeet's eyes he said, "bas.. itna sa masoom sa plan tha mera... magar kya karu.. meri kismat hi kharab hai.. sab ulta hogaya..."
Abhijeet dint say anythng.. Salunkhe who was sitting beside him kept his hand on his shoulder consling him...
Daya- tumhe yeh plan akele nhi banana chahiye tha...
Pankaj- ha.. main bhi abhi yeh hi bolnewala tha... mjhe shamil kar liya hota.. toh yeh gadbad hoti hi nhi...
Abhijeet(irritatingly)- ha bilkul sahi kaha... isse bhi zyada gadbad hoti...
Pankaj who had an expression of pride now chnged into embaressment...
Others gave him a mischevious smile...
Abhijeet- Daya ki baat sahi hai..tumhe kisi se share krna tha pehle..
Rajat(lowering his gaze)- m sorry sir..
Tarika- ek min.. Rajat.. mjhe toh Salunkhe sir ke mobile se msg bhi aaya tha ke lab jana hai..
Rajat- ha- ha.. wo..wo.. maine hi-maine hi bheja tha... party me aane ke baad...
"BAS! BAHUT HOGAYA..." said ACP aggressively...
ACP- wo bechara sunn rha hai toh tum log sunaate jaoge...
Everyne was taken aback by ACP's sudden outburst
ACP- yeh plan Rajat ne akele execute nhi kiya hai..
Tarika- matlab?
ACP- matlab yeh ki... main bhi Rajat ke sath mila hua tha...
The officers stared at ACP in awestruck manner!
OOPPPSSSS! YEH KYA HOGYA...
RAJAT KE CONFESSION KE SATH SATH ACP SIR NE BHI KAR DIYA APNA CONFESSION...
AB KYA HOGA... JO ACP KHUD DUSRO KI GALATI SUDHARTA THA, USNE KHUD GALATI KI HAI...
KYA USKE JUNIORS MAAF KRNEG USSE?
JANNE KE LIYE BANE RAHIYE MERE SATH ISS STROY ME JISKA NAAM HAI "SORRY"
