Chapter 32
Everyone entered the room and there was a little relief to their eyes seeing him at least without an oxygen mask. Abhijeet welcomed them with a relaxing smile and tried to sit when instantly Adi and Varun went to help him.
ACP was just starring at him with so many feelings altogether. He was nervous about how to control himself though he admits openly that
From the first day of his, he experienced a special sooth seeing him,
From the first day of his, he saw his son in him,
From the first day of his, he felt his heart cried seeing him in pain,
From the first day of his, he felt he was the person whom he loves the most in the world,
And agreeably, he can say with head held high that he has loved him unconditionally despite being unknown till a few hours back with the precious destined relation they share.
And by the same assurance that there would be dawn after dusk, he could say that this love would stay by eternity, absolutely unconditional!
He was still standing at the doorstep getting blank with the thoughts and jerked back in reality by a hand on his shoulder.
He turned and saw Apoorv standing with a concerned face. He looked around and realized that everyone was around the bed asking about his well-being. He flashed a small smile to Apoorv and both came inside near him.
Apoorv refreshingly: Aur bhai London ko bhi Senior Inspector Abhijeet ke darshan karwa diye…
Everyone smiled while Abhijeet downed his head in shyness…
Abhijeet shyly: Kya uncle aap bhi…
Aditya in anger: Kya uncle aap bhi haan…lekar gaye the na tujhe dur firr kyu gaya vapas unn logo ke paas
Abhijeet protesting: Abe voh log drugs bech rahe the yarr ( in low-angry tone ) aur ek ladki ke saath badtameezi bhi ( defending himself ) Aur vaise bhi unhone cheating karke mujhe fasaya tha ( jerked his head in annoyance murmuring ) faltu me mood kharab kardiya…
Everyone looked at him in complete disappointment…
Apoorv teasingly: Beta tumhe yaha London me ram-rajy lagta hai kya jo ( imitating him ) cheating kari mere saath…
Abhijeet jerked his head in frustration when felt an instant shot of pain in his neck and a painful groan escaped his mouth. Everyone got tense and ACP hurriedly sat beside and supported him while Shivani kept a hand on his head…
ACP in worry: Kya kar rahe ho Abhi dhyan se beta…
Adi in tension-anger : Thodi der pehele hosh aaya hai aur abhi se apni adakaari dikhane se fursat nahi hai…bevakoof
Abhijeet chuckled: Aree theek hu mein yarr sachme ( turned to ACP saying softly ) tension matt lijiye sir mujhe nahi hua kuch…
ACP smiled sadly and stood up from the bedside. How this one word " SIR " pricked his heart like a thousand thorns yet he has to force a smile on his face. How unfortunate he was that he couldn't tightly hug him and tell the whole world that SENIOR INSPECTOR ABHIJEET IS MY OWN BLOOD!
How ironical the situation has turned, he used to call him his son and was living exactly as a father but now, knowing the truth he is unable to face him directly as
He Fears, Yes ACP Pradyuman fears
That he might burst out in tears after hugging him,
That he might tell him that he missed him badly,
That he might spill the secret out without thinking of the consequences!
CONSEQUENCES! yeah his mind now started envisioning the worst that WHAT IF HE HATES HIS PARENTS ?
After all, Abhijeet doesn't know anything, for him, it's just that if his parents themselves left him in the orphanage then HE DOESN'T EVEN WANT TO SEE THEIR FACES!. And if he was actually left for what orphanages are then THE DEAD PEOPLE DON'T RETURN!
These thoughts were driving him crazy, he could feel that he was shouting over the top of his voice yet none was able to hear him!
Suddenly he came to the present world by a slight jerk from the shoulder, he looked and found Aditya standing while Abhijeet was talking with others
Aditya whispered in concern: Sir aap theek haina ?
ACP smiled sadly: Jitna theek ho sakta hu utna hu Aditya…
Aditya sadly with a lowered gaze: Aapko Abhi se sir sunne me bura laga hoga na ab…
ACP sighed but before he could answer they heard a loud shocking exclaim from Abhijeet: Maa mein bahar kyu nahi jaunga kahi…
Shivani strictly hiding her smile: Kyuki tum bahar akele choddne vaale insaan ho hi nahi…
Abhijeet annoyingly: Yeh kya baat hui maa… badtamizi voh log kar rahe the aur saza mujhe ( Shivani shrugged casually so he said in daring tone ) Maa mujhe ghar se bhagna padega firr…
Shivani glared at him: Toh firr mujhe tumhe chain se baandh ke rakhna padega…
Abhijeet's jaw dropped and his eyes widened with shock seeing his mother could go to this length while everyone unable to control more burst out in laughter including Shivani. Abhijeet frowned and made an annoyed face at this while Shivani stopping after some time ruffled his hair and lovingly kissed his cheeks who gave a sweet smile in return.
ACP was looking at them with a teary-sweet smile and said: Jitna bhi bura lag raha ho mujhe Adi lekin agar yeh sach chupe rehne se yeh dono aise rahe na toh mein puri zindagi bhi sehne ko taiyarr hu…
Adi looked at him with tears ( pov ): Sir mein aapko aapka hakk to dilwa ke rahunga…( in teary smile ) Abhi ke paas maa bolne ka hakk toh hai lekin Dad bolne ka bhi toh hona chahiye na…
Both looked at Abhijeet with a teary smile while the friend determined to reunite his friend to his family and the father just praying almighty to protect this bundle of joy in their life forever…
Two more days passed like that, they had not even given slight leniency which Abhijeet could use to escape from the hospital. He was though highly annoyed by it but he noticed that ACP was behaving strangely. He was really getting quiet. He at first thought he was angry with him but that wasn't the case either. He was feeling that even Adi and Apoorv were a bit different from usual. He once or twice asked this directly from them but they dismissed it casually.
It was at some dusky hour when ACP and Shivani had gone back to the resort and Adi was sitting with Abhi having light chit-chat…
Abhi in total annoyance: Yarr tum logo ne mujhe paka diya hai yaha beith ke…
Aditya teasingly: Toh saza har kisi ki hoti hai bhai yeh vohi samjh…
Abhijeet jerked his head grumbling annoyingly and got busy in his mobile game again while Aditya thought this moment good to talk with him…
Otherside;
ACP entered the hospital premises while talking on the phone and making his way towards the room,
ACP in tears: Sachme Salunkhe sapne jaisa lag raha hai yarr vishwas hi nahi ho raha…
Salunkhe in a moist smile: Mujhe bhi yakeen nahi hua Pradyuman jab tumne reports mail kari…
ACP chuckled in tears while crossing the reception: Issi ko kismet ke khel bolte hai yarr…
Salunkhe: Waqai me boss…yeh chamatkar hi hai ( in excitement ) tum log bass vapas aao party mei aisi dunga ki sab dekhte reh jaayenge
ACP laughed lightly and wiped his tears while climbing the stairs and said seriously: Salunkhe tu please yeh sab aur kisi ko matt bataiyo abhi…
Salunkhe confused-shock: Hein…bhai mein toh mithai leke aaya hu ki sabko khushi me batunga aur tum batane se hi mana kar rahe ho…
ACP turned in the corridor where the room is: Yarr mein tujhe baadme samjhaunga sab kuch lekin abhi ke liye yeh apne tak hi rakhiyo…
Salunkhe too understood that some serious reason would be there so agreed and both cut the call while ACP just reached the room and was about to open the door when stopped hearing them,
Aditya trying to sound casual grabbed a magazine from the table asked as: Abhi agar soch tere mom-dad achanak se tere saamne aa gaye toh ?
ACP's grip on the door handle tightened…
Abhijeet getting shocked by this sudden question looked at him with a jerk: Abe kya bakwas kar raha hai ek dum se…
Aditya shrugged still reading the magazine: Aise hi ( looked at him in a smile ) bachpan me tu bolta tha ki voh jab aayenge toh kya kya karega firr ab ?
Abhijeet looking away : Adi bachpan ki baate alag thi yarr tu iss waqt kaise soch sakta hai yeh sab…aisa thodi hota hai
Aditya sitting in front of him : Abe matlab aise hi soch raha tha agar ho gaya toh( smilingly ) soch ab agar voh tujhe dhundte hue aagaye toh tu khush ho jayega na bahot ( excitedly ) aur firr rahega bhi unke saath…( kept hand on his folded knee ) pehele to yeh bata ki milkar kya karega ek dum se…
ACP had his breath held while the grip getting tighter on the knob because of anxiety…
Abhijeet after a moment looked at him seriously and straightly spoke without any emotion: Mein unko dekhna bhi pasand nahi karunga! ( Aditya shock while ACP unintentionally left the handle with a jerk and recoiled back with extreme hurt )
Aditya in shock: Kya bol raha hai Abhi tu..tujhe apne parents se nahi milna agar voh itne saalo baad aate toh…
Abhijeet coldly with a tinge of hatred: Nahi… mujhe unke baare me jaan ne ka koi shauk nahi hai…mein bahot khush hu apni life me aur ab unse milna toh door unko dekhna tak nahi chahunga…
ACP collided by the wall looking into extreme pain,
Mein unko dekhna tak pasand nahi karunga…
A light smirk came on his face, how well he understood him!
Some moments later, He came back to the present hearing some loud voices from inside, and understood that Adi was getting restless and angry so he got scared that he might, in-flow, spill the truth in front of him. As now knowing of Abhijeet's reaction he could never think of telling the truth. He got shivered with the mere thought that, his Abhi wouldn't even see his face!
He composed himself and hurriedly went inside…
Abhi angrily: Adi hua kya hai ek dum se tu…he got stopped in the mid of the sentence as he saw ACP sir entering and immediately held Adi's hand to stop him to say anything.
ACP in jolly tone trying hard to compose: Aur bhai kya ladayi ho rahi hai dono dosto me hmm…
Aditya looked away and went a bit far from bed…
Abhijeet in a small smile: Aree kuch bhi nahi sir ( pointing at Adi ) yeh pagal ho gaya hai keh raha hai humari flight tickets isne book nahi kari ab tak taaki aur ek hafta rakh sake mujhe yaha…
Adi just turned his face other side looking out of the window holding disappointed-angry expressions…
While ACP in a soft-sweet smile weaved in his hair: Toh galat kya kaha usne hmm…
Abhijeet looked at him in shock that he was supporting this which he hurriedly gave as an excuse while ACP sir seeing his son's shocking gaze fixed over himself smiled under his teeth as he got that his son must be thinking that he himself got in a problem making that excuse…
ACP placing a hand on his face: Rakhenge lekin yaha nahi London me ( Abhijeet confused while he added in a friendly tone ) beithe kya ho bhai change karke aao tumhara discharge ho gaya hai…
Abhijeet surprised: Sachchi sir hum hospital se jaa rahe hai ( ACP nodded with a loving smile and Abhijeet in broad smile instantly hugged him tightly around the waist ) Thankyou so much sir you are seriously the best…
ACP smiled soothingly while a lone tear escaped his right eye and directly fell in his RIGHT HAND's hair,
Yes, right hand because he'll never tell the truth to him now. Although they know, others know that they have the same emotions and upholding the relation with the same love and care but
Officially, Abhijeet would remain his right hand.
Officially, Abhijeet would remain an orphan.
Officially, ACP Pradyuman and Shivani Pradyuman's son was kidnapped and killed at the age of 8 months.
A sad-rueful smile approached his lips and he bending slightly kissed his head with great love while Aditya looked at him in pain.
After a moment of checking his composure,
ACP lovingly and happily: Aur tickets bhi humne teen din late ki book kari hai ( softly ruffled his hair ) Taaki mera beta thoda aur enjoy kar sake…
Abhijeet smiled broadly over this unexpected thing and asked happily-excitedly still resting his head by his stomach: Sachchi sir hum thoda aur rukenge yaha ( ACP nodded with a loving smile while he said in extreme excitement and looked at him attaching his chin with his stomach ) yessss! firr hum sir pehele na O2 arena chalenge firr Dungeons uske baad Sea Life Center firr…
ACP who was listening to all this with a contended-loving smile interrupted smilingly: Bass bass meri bullet train ab…
Abhijeet instantly interrupted in his own flow of counting the places: Sir bullet train London me nahi hai…
A soft laugh escaped ACP's mouth and he lightly smacked Abhijeet's head: Chalo theek hai mere Azuma…ab theek hai…
Abhijeet smiled shyly and nodded while separating from him and ACP cupping his face placed a soft kiss on his forehead who gave a cute smile in return…
Abhijeet in naughty smile: Sir shopping pe bhi chalenge mujhe Salunkhe sir ke liye wig leni hai…
ACP laughed: Ha bhai itni important cheez kaise bhool sakte hai buddha ghusne nahi dega lab me…
Abhijeet laughed lightly while ACP gave a loving pat on his cheek: Ab chalo jaldi se change karke aao…
Abhijeet nodded happily and ACP helped him to get down from the bed…
Abhijeet going towards the washroom stopped in tracks and turned with a mischievous smile: Sir ( ACP looked at him in question while he said naughtily ) shopping pe aap air hostess ke liye bhi le lena kuch…
ACP shock and a moment later glared at him angrily: Abhi mein discharge cancel
Abhijeet interrupting hurriedly: Sir discharge pe kuch nahi please...( shrugging casually ) aapko nahi dena gift matt do mein kya karu…
ACP glared at him hard seeing which he instantly and hurriedly went in the washroom while ACP shook his head in a disappointed smile…
ACP looked at Aditya who was looking out of the window and he goes up to him placed a hand on his shoulder…
ACP in a sad smile: Koi baat nahi Adi…beta Abhi bhi sahi hai apni jagah ( Aditya gave a shocking-confusion glance so he added in a low tone ) meine sun liya sab kuch bahar hi tha mein
Aditya looked at him with teary eyes: Sir m..mujhe samjh nahi aa raha Abhi ko kya hua hai voh kyu…
ACP interrupted in hurt: Voh apni jagah sahi hai Adi…( turned to him ) please matt batana usko sach ab ( teary tone ) mein nahi jee paunga Adi uske bina…( brokenly ) soch ke bhi dar lagta hai ki Abhi me..mera chehra tak dekhna nahi pasand karega… ( requesting ) wada karo Adi tum yeh baat firse nahi karoge usse…
Aditya trying again: Sir hum ek baar Abhi ko sach
ACP cut him in extreme fear: Bilkul bhi nahi Adi please…Ab bhi tum usse sach batane ka soch rahe ho ( Aditya bowed his head down while ACP to be assured said in strong tone ) Adi tum Abhi ko yeh baat kabhi nahi bataoge ( Before Aditya protests ) tumhe Abhijeet ki kasam.
Aditya looked at him in jerk: Sir yeh aap…
ACP in firm tone holding moisture in eyes: Bass yeh baat yahi khatam karo Adi…mein aise hi rehne ko taiyarr hu aur bahot khush hu…mujhe maloom hai tum Abhi ki kasam nahi todoge…
Aditya in extreme pain looked away and bite his inner side of his lip to control himself…
Listening to the door opening sound, ACP hurriedly composed himself and forcing a smile on his face turned…
Abhijeet feeling something wrong asked in concern: Aap theek haina sir ?
ACP made a face: Yeh lo bhai hospital se khud jaa raha hai aur humse puch raha hai hum theek hai ya nahi…
Abhijeet chuckled lightly and glanced at Adi who was still looking out: Sir isse puchlo isko ghumne jaana hai humare saath ya firr yahi apne uss angrez doctor ke saath beithna hai…
ACP laughed lightly: Uss doctor ki shamat aa jayegi agar Adi mil gaya usse toh…
Abhijeet too laughed lightly and went towards him. He made him turn to say cutely: Kya ho gaya Adi bhaiya itne gusse me kyu ho…
Aditya had already composed himself said in a smile: Kuch nahi yarr….( changing the topic said in pride ) Tu dekhiyo mein darunga nahi ab dungeon me…
Abhijeet smiled teasingly like "We'll see"…while ACP and Aditya hidingly shared an assuring glance.
The trio went out of the hospital towards the resort in little chit-chat…
Reaching the resort, they met everyone and took their dinner. Since it was already late, they went to their rooms. Shivani and ACP with Abhijeet were sitting in his room having light talks when Abhi took his medicines and both together made him sleep. ACP felt he could anytime burst out in tears with such sweet moments encountering him with his family as after knowing the truth he had got a fear to lose this happiness from his life again, and this time he knows both he and Shivani wouldn't be able to bear it.
Shivani after getting satisfied from Abhi's side went back to her room while ACP to compose himself, stood in the balcony.
After some time of calming his emotions, he checked Abhi once and after getting satisfied from his side went back to his room but as he entered in, his eyes got widened with shock and just a soft whisper came from his mouth as : Shivani!
END of the Chapter
I hope this chapter was fine, please share what you feel. I am again giving the target and yeah I agree that a bit high review target I give but this is due to the fact that I have recently started this practice when the story is towards its ending and I am trying to give longer chapters. I would have kept it lower if I kept the targets from the start.
Target is 778 reviews before the next chapter. And yeah apologies in advance if I get late after the target completion.
Please read and leave your feedback at the end…
Sanjana Gupta :-)
