CHAPTER 3
For the next two days Daya was nearly a parament resident of that particular hospital room.
On the third day, a letter was delivered to their house in Daya's absence. Shreya received the letter on his behalf and then move towards Tarika
"Tarika... Headquarters se letter..."
Tarika who was half lying on the bed looked at Shreya with
"Kis Ka hai?"
"Daya k liye...per wo to..."
"Tum khol k dekho.. headquarters se hai to kaam k hi hoga.."
Shreya hesitated a bit then opened the letter, and after reading it completely turned to Tarika
"Kal Daya Ka IB mein promotion announce ho GA...aur official formalities bhi...kal jana ho GA unhein..lekin training Mumbai mein Nahi ho ga..."
"Phir?"
"Patna mein hai..." She shook her head with "koi faida nahi ...Daya jaein ge hi nahi...aur aisi halaat mein Bhaiyya ko chor kar kese ja saktey hain...wo to ghar theek se nahi aatey..bas hospital aur beauru mein hi...aise mein sab chor kar wahan..."
…...
That day when daya entered the house he found Tarika standing in the hall looking quite impatient. He looked towards Tarika in question who said
"Tumhare liye aik letter aya hai"
"Letter?"
"Haan mission success honey ki wajah se tumhara promotion pakka ho gaya hai…kal official formalities complete hongi"
"Acha.."
Daya was about to move to his room when Tarika continued "Tumhein Patna jana hoga"
"Patna?"
"Haan tumhari traning hai wahan 6 mahiney ki..phir posting kahan ho gi dekhtey hain"
"Ohh…mein kal keh dun ga meeting mein k muje promotion nahi chahiye "
He was about to move to his room when heard Tarika as "Nahi…aisa kuch nahi karo ge tum"
Daya turned to tarika with a frown
Tarika continued "tum kal apna promotion accept karo ge aur agle haftey patna bhi jao ge"
Daya continued looking at Tarika without any words who said
"Traning khatam kar lo phir dekhtey hain posting kahan hoti hai…filhaal Shreya yahin rahey gi kiun k tumhein to training k liye academy k hostel mein rehna ho ga…training k baad phir.."
But Daya didn't let her complete and said in a quite stubborn tone
"Tarika me ne kaha me ye sab accept nahi karun ga"
Tarika replied in the same tone " aur mein keh rahi hun tum ye accept karo ge"
"Kia Matlab?"
Tarika took a deep breath and said
"Daya…Abhijeet Duty ki wajah k alawa is hi baat k liye bhi ye mission mein bohat zada intrest le raha tha...tum aise us ki baat ko..."
"Nahi karni hai muje us ki baat puri… kiun karun mein? Us ne meri baat rakhi..? mein to keh raha hun na k wo jaag jaye jaag jaye..wo utha? Nahi na? to wo jab meri baat nahi sun raha… phir mein kiun..is liye please mein nahi chahta k tum is topic per phir se baat karo"
Tarika said in calm tone "mein to karun gi Daya"
"Tarika tum to baat ko samjho"
"Nahi…muje kuch nahi samjhna hai tum samjho…kal ko us ko hosh aye ga aur pata chaley ga k us ki wajh se tum ne apna itna bara moqa kho diya…to tumhein lagta hai k wo khud ko maaf…."
"Haan maaf karna bhi nahi chahiye "
"Us ne jaan boojh kar to nahi kiya na ye…tum chahtey ho wo is guilt k saath rahey ? "
"Aur tum chahti ho mein us ko yahan chor kar chala jaun "
"Hum logon per itna to bharosa kar saktey ho na"
Daya took a deep breath and nodded
"Phir?"
"Per wahan me.."
"Hum Acp sir se baat kar saktey hain is per..k agar Abhijeet ki condition mein koi bhi change aye acha y abura kuch bhi to tumhein immidately inform kiya ja sakey…aur tumhe bhi ye facility ho k tum Abhijeet k present doctor ya Salunkhe sir se us ki condition k barey mein jaan sako..agar ye sab ho tab to…"
"Haan per…"
"Mein ye sab kuch soch k hi keh rahi hun…PLEASE… "
"Muje thora waqt do…"
"Waqt nahi hai Daya…kal hi tumhein apna faisla batana ha us meeting mein"
Daya shook his head with "muje nahi pata"
And moved in side his room
….
Next day as Daya was moving out for the meeting Tarika stopped him at the door and said
"Tum maan to jao ge na…."
"Per mein…"
"Abhijeet k liye..please..wo kabhi khud ko maaf…nahi kar paye ga "
"Haan maan lung a mein…tum chahti ho na mein chala jaun? Chala jaun ga"
And he marched out.
Tarika kept standing at the door for few seconds then rushed inside her bedroom. She locked the door and sat down against the door on the floor
"Tum kiun itni bari zimmedaari de ke gaye mujhe Abhijeet…tum ne janey se pehle kaha tha k agar kuch ho jaye to mein sab sambhaal lun…itni bari zimmedaari dene se pehle mera kiun nahi socha tum ne..tum apna to kabhi pehle sochtey hi nahi they…is baar mera bhi nahi socha…mujhe pata hai Daya lakh ghussa ho kar bhi agar Patna jaye tab bhi wo yahan se contact rakhey ga…per wo wahan dil to laga paye ga na? Tum us ko jis tarha samjhatey ho…mujhe thori aata hai..aur Shreya…Shreya ne to koshuish hi nahi ki is maamley mein usey samjhaney ki…"
…..
With passing days Daya had now moved to Patna for the training. He regularly spoke with Acp sir and doctor Salunkhe and with Shreya also but ignored Tarika. Tarika. Knows he regularly takes information about her.
That day Shreya was working in the kitchen putting her phone on speaker. Tarika who just woke up from her another restless night sleep and was coming towards the kitchen heard Daya's voice as
"Mein kese baat karun Tarika se… mein us per ghussa dikha ke aaya per mujhe bhi to pata hai ke wo ander hi ander kitna toot rahi hai… mujh mein us se baat karne ki bhi himmat nahi hai…wo itni strong kese reh sakti hai "
Tarika knows the answer herself but cant make anyone understand. Still, there is no improvement on Abhijeet's side
….
That day Tarika came inside the beauru to deliver some reports when heard Rajat's voice as
"Tum log baat ko is tarha se kiun le rahey ho…Abhijeet sir ki absence mein aa raha hai baat ye nahi hai…matlab ye.."
It seems its difficult for Rajat to prove his point
Tarika entered with "kia baat hai…"
Shreya gave a hesitant look to Tarika
Tarika looked at Rajat and Shreya directly with "kia hua bolo…"
Rajat took a deep breath and said "aik naya senior inspector join karney wala hai to…matlab…"
Vivek said in a stubborn way
"Abhijeet sir ko thora waqt to dena chahiye na…sir aise khud se to ghayal nahi ho gaye..duty ki wajah se hi hua na ye sab… to un ki jagah per itni jaldi koi aur senior inspector kese la saktey hain headquarters waley aur Acp sir kiun…"
Tarika look towards Acp sir's cabin amd found a shadow moving away
She smile a bit and said
"kia Vivek… tum log aise kiun soch rahey ho…dekho pehle teen senior inspectors they na…Abhijeet Daya aur Rajat…Daya IB mein chala gaya…ab ager Abhijeet theek bhi ho jata hai tab bhi aik senior inspector to lana hi tha na…tum log us tarha nahi soch pa rahey ho"
Vivek tried to interrupt with " per ye to…"
Tarika signaled him to stop and said
"Abhijeet theek ho jaye ga to kisi ne kaha hai kia ke us ko join nahi karne dein ge…nahi na? to ye to tum log keh rahey ho k ye Abhijeet ki jagah le raha hai…aisa headquarters walon ne to nahi kaha….kaha?"
They all looked away
Tarika took a deep breath then turned to Shreya
"Daya ko is barey mein batana mat…mein ye file Acp sir ko de kar aati hun"
…
Coming outside the bureau Tarika stopped at the corridor and grabbed the nearby railing tightly
"Mujhe bhi pata hai ye senior inspector tumhare badle aa raha hai…dheerey dheerey team bhi Adat daal le gi… per hum kuch log kese adat dal lein…tumhe daish ki pari rehti hai…farz ki pari rehti hai…per hum logon ka kia ?"
She touched the Mangalsutra in her neck and said
"Tumhein pata hai Abhijeet…tum agar ab theek bhi ho jao na to mein kabhi tumhein maaf nahi karun gi…"
She was about to move inside the lab but found Doctor Salunkhe looking quite tensed
She asked "kia hua sir koi complications hain reports mein"
"Nahi Tarika report mein kuch nahi hai "
"Phir?"
"IB Patna branch ka head mera dost hai…tumhein pata hai na"
"Haan…PER Daya theek hai na?"
Dr Salunkhe sighed
"Daya wahan bilkul dil nahi laga raha hai…concentrate nahi kar raha…yahan tak us ki physical strength aur fitness per bhi sawal uth rahey hain..jese wo chah raha ho k us ka selection na ho"
Tarika sighed, Dr Salunkhe continued
"Thora zada hi chalak ho gaya hai tumhara dewar"
"Sir ye sab Acp sir ko pata hai?"
"Nahi…per batana to parey ga…wahan se official report aye us se pehle mein hi bata deta hun…to.."
Tarika was listening silently now said "Sir mera weakly off mujhe kal mil sakta hai?"
"Per tumhara off to parson hai na…"
"G sir…lekin mujhe kal chahiye…aur aaj bhi mein jaldi ja sakti hun kia?"
"Aik second aik second…tum Patna jao gi ?"
"G sir.."
"Tarika…Daya khud kaafi samjh daar hai…us ko bhi is sab ka anjaam pata hai…wo amjaam ka soch k hi sab kar raha hai…"
"Nahi sir…soch samjh ken ahi kar raha…wo emotions mein beh kar sab kar raha hai…aur…aur mujhe us ko rokna hai…sir Abhijeet ne mujh se wada liya tha ke agar wo na lautey ya usey kuch ho jaye to me sab sambhal lun gi…mujhe sab samitna hai…"
"Aur tum?"
"Sir mujhe sambhal ke rehna hai is liye to Abhijeet ki sansein ab tak chal rahi hain…doctors ne ab tak ye nahi kaha ke us ki jaan ko khatra hai wo to ye keh rahey hain k us ko hosh kab tak aye ga ye nahi pata…wo zinda rahey ga…ye garuntee is liye to hai taa ke mein sambhli rahun "
Dr Salunkhe patted her head softly and said "tum akeli jao gi?"
"Nahi… Shreya ko bhi le ke jaun gi…mein Shreya ko call kar deti hun…"
Dr Salunkhe just nodded and Tarika moved to take her things
