A\N: Petrichor is a pleasant smell that accompanies the first rain after a long period of dry and warm weather. It is the sweet, unique and earthy smell of first rain.

Yellow Rose is symbolic to the relationship of friendship. I would request you to see the cover image of this story.

HAPPY HOLI MY FRIENDS. HERE IS THE HOLI GIFT.

NOW HAVE A HAPPY READING…

The night was dark and rainy and the roads were slippery enough. Daya seemed to driving the car but today his mood was not so relaxed. No, he did not have any doubt over his driving skills, but simply he did not want to take any risk. He knew if he tried to apply any type of stunts here, two lives would be endangered… his and Abhijeet's.

He took a glance towards the passenger seat where Abhijeet was still in deep slumber, tied with seatbelt. He just smiled looking towards the cute sleeping face of his partner and then concentrated on driving again!

All of a sudden the car jumped a bit due to the uneven road and with Abhijeet sat up straight with a jerk. Daya controlled the car somehow and then said to Abhijeet in guilty tone…

Daya: sorry boss… really sorry… woh rasta itna kharab hain… tum so jaao chalo…

Abhijeet(in tired tone): nahin yaar… ab to sidha ghar jake hi sone wala hoon… aise baithe baithe sote sote gardan mein dard ho gaya hain…

Daya: phir bhi yaar… itna hectic schedule jaa raha hain tumhara peechle kuch dino se…

Abhijeet(with a smile): nahin yaar… main theek hoon… waise bhi tum akele akele gadi chala rahe ho to…

Daya: haan to kya? Koi bhoot aa jayega kya? Ya phir koi aatma jiski badi badi aankhein ho, badi badi safed daant ho…

Abhijeet: aur jiski payer ulte ho…

Daya: chudail huyi to lambi kali baal bhi hogi…

Abhijeet: dayen huyi to choti hogi Daya…

Daya: haan… ek lambi si kali choti…

Abhijeet: waise Daya, kapda safed hona must hain…

Daya(with laugh): sahi hain…

Both friends burst out in laughter while Abhijeet added…

Abhijeet: agar Freddy ya Pankaj mein se koi humare saath hota yahan to maza hi aa jata…

Daya: haan… tumhe to bas koi mauka chahiye hota hain unki tang kheenchne ka… kyun darate ho unhe har baar?

Abhijeet: haan haan jaise ki tum kam ho… tum bhi

Daya: hawwww… Abhijeet, tum na aankhon ka test karwa lo… kharab ho gaya hain lagta hain…

Abhijeet: accha bacchu, sach bola main to mera aankhein kharab?

Daya: yes!

Abhijeet: jee nahin senior inspector Daya… meri aankhein bilkul theek hain… aapki tarah chasma bhi nahin hain mera… mujhe sab kuch saaf saaf dikhai deta hain… SAAF SAAF!

Daya(mimicking him): saaf saaf!

Abhijeet(in mock anger): Daya!

Daya(in innocent tone): kya hua Abhijeet?

Abhijeet could not control himself, he just smiled and said in a disappointed tone…

Abhijeet: sudhroge nahin na tum? Itna sa bhi nahin badloge na?

Daya: soch lo Abhijeet… agar main badal gaya to shayad sabse zyada dukh tumhe hi hoga… aur us din apne inhi labzon par pachtava hoga tumhe…

Abhijeet did not say anything but remained staring towards the deep darkness prevailing outside the window for some moments. Then he said in a low tone…

Abhijeet: shayad!

Daya(in curious tone): shayad? Kyun tumhe dukh nahin hoga agar main badal gaya to?

Abhijeet now turned towards him and said in calm tone…

Abhijeet: dukh to zaroor hoga ki tab tum mera wala Daya nahin rahoge… lekin agar is badlav mein tumhari khushiyan hain, to… to mujhe bhi khushi hogi… aur tumhe maloom haina, tumhari khushiyon mein hi meri khushiyan chupi hain…

Daya remained staring towards him for some moments. His eyes were moist. He was really feeling so much happy realizing the most precious relationship he had in this world in form of Abhijeet! But what was the name of the relationship existing between them? They did not have any blood relation. The primary term used to define their relationship was friendship. Abhijeet was his best friend. But was Abhijeet his best friend only? No!

Were they two brothers? No! Being a CID cop, he had witnessed many such cases where a brother had killed his own brother for some mere property only. Then?

Perhaps they had been attached with each other through a nameless relationship! Nameless yet precious!

It was an UNNAMED relationship!

He now decided to divert the topic as it was clear that the discussion had turned into an emotional path. He just smiled a bit and then asked in soft tone…

Daya: accha Abhi, tum yeh shaitan, pishach wagero mein yakeen karte ho?

Abhijeet once took a look of his face and then asked…

Abhijeet: mazak uda rahe ho?... (Daya nodded in no with a serious face)… agar main kahu haan to?

Daya(in shock) Abhi!

Abhijeet(in calm tone): haan Daya manta hoon main devil ki existence… haan, lekin yeh zaroor batana chahunga ki yeh jo shaitan ya devil hota haina, woh koi darawani chehre mein safed kapde pehenke nahin ghumte… woh aam insano ke beech hi rehte hain… ek aam insan ke mukhote pehenke… par uski karname….

He did not complete the sentence but heaved a deep sigh. Daya too did not say anything. He was cent percent agreed with his brother's opinion. Yes, devil existed within human beings! And they had come across some of those devils in their lives even! Were those ruthless criminals, whom they had dealt with, less than devil?

Both brothers continued some of the next journey in complete silence. Daya was driving with full concentration and Abhijeet was looking outside. All of a sudden, Daya noticed a pair of bright yellow ray of light was coming towards them, just from the opposite! Headlights of any car! Abhijeet screamed in anxious tone…

Abhijeet: Daya sambhalke…

The driver of that car was seemed to not being in his sense, as it was not coming towards them following the straight path, rather it would be termed as spiral. Daya too managed to control their car, in the slippery road, trying his best to avoid any face to face collision with that car but till then the second car had reached too near to them. Both closed their eyes in scare and tension where Daya turned the steering wheel with his total strength to avoid collision but he could not succeed totally. Their car turned to the sideways and got collided straightly with a big tree aside the road. A similar scream came out from the car, though in two different voice as…

"AAAHHH!"
