CHAPTER 21
...
ABHIJEET heard some faint sounds coming from, outside the room...and what HE heard next just made his eyes go wider in shock...and HE was still at his place, unable to react...
...
AD:(roared in anger...)ACPPP...aaj mere bete ki yeh halat sirf aur sirf tumhare aur tumhari team ki bajhse hai...to behtar yahi hoga ki tum log usse dur raho...(threatning voice...)samjhe tumm...
ACP:(POV...)hann hann...sahi hai...aab janab ko manane ke liye plans banane pad rahe hain...aur class inn sab main se meri lag rahi hai...chalo aab galti ki hai to bhugatna bhi padega hi...
(giving a burning glance to DHRUV who passed a forced smile...)aur yeh DHRUV...hai pura ka pura ABHIJEET ki tarah hai...dimag main humesha kuch na kuch ulta sidha pakta hi rehta hai...(with a sigh...)chalo bhai ACP sahab shuru ho jao...warna pata nahi aur kya kya yeh log karwa lenge...
...
ACP:(to AD, while repenting over...)we are so sorry sir...hume pata nahi tha ABHIJEET ke sath ese kuch ho jaega...we're really sorry...
AD:(in same tone...)aab sorry bolne se sab kuch pehle ki tarah to ho nahi jaega...aur nahi ABHIJEET thik hoga...to behtar yahi hoga tum apna sorry apne pass hi rakho...
...
ABHIJEET'S heart pinched with the roaring growl, which might have echoed in the whole corridor...no doubt HE was angry upon them...but still HE was the part of the same family...maybe detached but still a part...when yet again HE heard...
...
DHRUV:(making HIM understand...)UNCLE...aa..aap please shant ho jaiye..abhi SIR thik hai..to aap please...
AD:(interrupted...)what nonsense DHRUV...have you gone mad...dikh nahi raha tha tumhe kuch der pehle ABHIJEET ki halat...(chewing tone...)ya phir tumhara bhi dimag kharab ho gaya hai...hann...
DHRUV:(again trying...)uncleeee...lekinnnnnn...
AD:(sternly...)kuch lekin wekin nahi...(huffed in anger...so added in a flow...)aaj to lag raha hai galti kardi...ACP aur uske team ko apne bete ki suraksha ki zimmadari deke bohot badi galti kardi...(turning HIS face to the other side...)sounp na hi nahi cahiye tha mujhe inhe koi zimmedari...
...
...
ACP remained stunned at his place...yeah...this was only a part of the plan to make ABHIJEET realise...but still this line pinched his heart...and something similar, already echoing in HIS ears...
...
"galti kardi...bohot badi galti kardi mene ABHIJEET ko yeh zimmedari dekar...mujhe yeh kaam use sounp na hi nahi chaiye tha..."
...
these were the same words spoken by HIM to ABHIJEET in accordance to catch a goon gang...and that was a plan too...(giraftar series...)
BUT still these line consisting of some simple english alphabets cut through HIS heart so brutally...and yet today HE could feel the pain ABHIJEET felt that day...again making his belief upon the wheel of karma more firmer...
while HIS trance broke as HE heard again...
...
...
DHRUV:(immediately protested...)UNCLEE pleaseeeee...
AD:(bit his tongue realizing his words...BUT got an understanding nod from ACP so continued in a chewing tone...)DHRUVVV...tum thodi der chup rahoge to hi behtar hoga...(to team...in a strong tone...)aur ACP tum log...abhi aur issi waqt, yahan se chale jao...main nahi cahta tum logon ki wajah aur kuch bhi ho...
(added controlling his large grin intending to come up...)aur wese bhi ABHIJEET tum logon se dur rehna chahta hai...to...
...
...
ABHIJEET became copletely stunned at HIS place...no...this can't happen...HE can't let them go again...the euphoria HE felt within this span of 1 week which HE missed from last 6 years was again seemeing to go away from HIM...
just few instances back HE too wanted to run away from them, BUT not now...and HE himself didn't knew the reason...
till now HE had not forgave them...
till now HE had not even forgotten those harsh reality which still comes in HIS dreams as nightmares...
till now the scars of torture had not faded away...
till now the bruises in HIS heart were as fresh as those days...
...
BUT now they all seem to recover slowly...not completely but still the procedure had now began, unaware of the new storm in their lives which had already paved its way...while HIS mind took him back to the same cataclysmic day...
...
...
FLASHBACK:
...
ABHIJEET and DHRUV stood in the middle of the beuro in handcuffs, still confused and shocked about what they were alleged for...while the landline rang loudly...disturbing the uncanny silence in the domain...
...
DAYA made his way towards the phone, wiping those tear reminants receiving those hurtful glances from HIS buddy...and picked the call with a "HELLO...SENIOR INSPECTOR DA..." but stopped shockingly, and HIS face turned disgust hearing the later one...so transferred the call to ACP with...
...
DAYA:SIRR...DCP sir ka call hai...(chewing tone...)aap se kuch baat Karni hai...
...
AND to this ACP also made a face and kept the receiver down, switching the call to speaker mode... only to hear...
ACPP...hum yeh case STF ko transfer kar rahe hain...(everyone became stunned at their places...when again heard...) lekin... case ki investigation mein tum log bhi saath rahoge...in short...STF ke under kaam karoge...(warning tone...)aur haas...koi chalaki karne ki soch na bhi mat... kyunki STF kya hai, yeh tum achhe se jaante ho...
...
...
...
A person with hurt and pain embossed on his face, could be seen sitting on stiff iron, icy cold chair...But the coldness of the iron was nothing in front of the huge polar ice cap which had covered his beloveds' heart and soul...And above all, he could not figure out what exactly was tempting the cold ice to drop down more degrees.
while another person was visible, with bruised, pale, scared face, sitting not much distant from HIM but on the same icy chair hurting him for sure...when soon the large mettalic door opened and some figures entered inside, the very familiar INTERROGATION ROOM...
...
Five people, but only two HE could match with HIS heart's contact diary...to whom He reciprocated a blank look, which indeed would have pinched the other's heart...But the creased forehead and the angry and disappointing eyes didn't change their impression..
SO After getting no satisfied look, HE smiled wetly, but surprisingly even the tears didn't showed up to ripple...
so changed his vision towards the other three who were already looking straight to him, as if were trying to peep in to his soul...
...
OFF 1:(initiated taking a deep breath, and breaking the ice...)SENIOR INSPECTOR ABHIJEET...! aap hume toh jaan hi gaye honge, khair phir bhi ek breif intro le lijiye humara.
...
Abhijeet simply looked at him depicting his disinterest...while they initiated one by one sounding determined and tauntful...
...
OFF 1:Mai STF ka senior inspector Veer Malhotra.
OFF 2:myself inspector Brijesh Thakur.
OFF 3:(concluding...)Aur mai iss bureau ka head SI Satish Shukla...(mockingly...)Aur hume yeh toh batane ki zaroort nahi hai na, ki humne apko yahan pai kyun rakha hai...
ABHIJEET:(smiled in hurt and then answered...)toh aap bhi nahi batayenge...Sahi hai...mujh par kya allegation laga hai yeh main khud nahi janta...(painfully...)aur puchne par ya toh yeh...(eyeing at ACP...)hathkadi ya phir apke yeh (to SS..)taunts mil rahe hain...kyun...
...
...
VM (ignored the statement...and queried rounding his chair...)bohot guroor hai na apko apne khud par...
ABHIJEET:(playing back...)guroor toh kachue ko bhi khud par hota hai inspector sahab...aur hum to phir bhi insaan hai...
VM:(angrily chewing out every word coming from his mouth, upon hearing the assertion...)kuch jyada hi nahi chalti apki zubaan...sambhal kar rakhiye isse...(in a strong tone...)varna phir kabhi bolna naseeb na ho apko...
...
VM gave a crystal clear warning, to which the other two silent spectators looked at HIM shockingly and then exchanged a hurtful glance...while ABHIJEET simply smiled at this...
AND before HE could speak up something, HIS ears caught a new statement from another familiar voice...
...
SS:(calmly...)dekhiye ABHIJEET...hum logon ne apke bare main kafi kuch suna hai...aur hume khud bhi yeh case samjh ne main kafi time laga...(amusingly...)lekin pata nahi aap khud kuch kyun nahi jante...ya phir jan kar bhi anjaan ban rahe hain...
(stipulated Brijesh for something...)isi liye hum apke allegations apko ko brief kar dete hain...
BT:(took over the charge and began in a complete official manner...)aap dono par yeh arop hai ki aap kisi terrorist* gang se mile huye hain...(BOTH of them became still at their places...so clarified further...)aur iske proof yeh hain...
(and he forwarded some photographs taken from the farm house party, which made both of them even more stunned...)kyunki yahan jitne bhi log apke saath nazar aa rahe hain...yeh sab ke sab chunne huye khiladi hai underworld kai...aur woh bhi disguise main...
(showing some video clips...)aur aap donon ke upar inn bacchon ko kidnap karne ka dusra allegation hai, jinhe aap dusre desh main bechne wale hain...(in a strong determined tone...)jo ki hum hargiz nahi hone denge...
...
...
Abhijeet just looked at them with unbelievable expression...What was going? He could swear someone was trapping him for nothing...But he also knew that, the path had already turned white hot and walking on it would surely burn himself...
BUT he kept mum, as yet again heard SS resuming with some more papers in his hand...
...
...
SS:(giving a deadly glance...)dekho ABHIJEET...sab kuch samne aab aa chuka hai...to behtar yahi hoga tum hume yeh bata do ki bacche kahan hai, aur unn logon se tumhara kya sambanadh hai...
ABHIJEET:yeh baat Sach hai ki mai inn bachhon se aur unn logon se mila tha...(strongly...)lekin main nahi janta tha ki yeh criminals hai...a...aur ek baat...(confusingly...)inn bacchon ko job ke liye foreign recruit kiya jana tha...bechna nahi...
VM:(again gritting...)yeh humare sawaalon ka jawab nhi h ABHIJEET...
ABHIJEET:(shouted irritatingly, as all these were going above his head...)arehhh...kya jawab dun main appko...maine kaha na main kuch nahi janta...aur kya bacche bacche laga rakha hai...
(screamed at the top of his voice...)nahi janta main kuch bhi...
...
VM:(smirked and made his way towards DHRUV...)koi nahi...thik hai...aap nahi to yeh sahi...(held DHRUV'S collar rashly...)yeh to jarur janta hoga...(growled loudly, making the later shiver...)bol Sach...kya maksad hai tum logon ka...
DHRUV:(shivered badly out of fear, and answered in a pleading tone...)sir hum sach main kuch nahi jante...Please humari baaton pai vishwas kijiye...(sobbing...)yeh bachhe kon hain...kaha hai...hume kuch bhi nahi pata...
(BUT stopped completely, as his face got embossed of a tough hand print...which made him fall badly from the chair...)sir...ma..mai.. main.. sach.. keh.. raha.. hum.. m..m..aine k.. kuch nhi kiya..(to ABHIJEET...)SI...SIRR...aa..aap inse boliye na.. ma..ma...maine kuch nahi kiya...hai..k...karke...aap toh mujhe saalo se jante hai na...
...
Abhijeet could feel HIS own eyes going teary witnessing DHRUV'S condition...and when HE was about to open his mouth and interrupt, head yet again...
...
VM:(making DHRUV sit on the chair harshly, and at the same time in a mocking tone...)ar..areh...chh..chh..tere SIR ka bhi yehi haal hoga agar sach nahi batayenge toh...(eyeing dangerusly towards ACP and DAYA...)koi nahi bacha paega...koi bhi nahi...
SS:calm down Veer, usse kyu...(pointing to ABHIJEET...)isse pucho..sabka mastermind toh yehi hai...
...
VM nodded in affirmation, and moved towards ABHIJEET smirking...and harshly grabbed ABHI'S collar...
...
VM:(jerked roughly and asked gritting his teeth...)akhri baar puch raha hun...woh sab Kahan hai, aur iss ABS group of companies se tumhara kya sambandh hai, jahan pai DHRUV kaam karta hai...
(in a strong tone...)hume hamare informers se khabar mili hai ki, pichle kuch dinon se tum wahan pai bohot baar dekhe gaye ho...
ABHIJEET:(shocked hearing the name...so just tried to escape...)ma..main ki..kisi A..ABS ke ba..bare main na..nahi janta...
VM:(in same tone..)yeh mere sawaal ka jawab nhi hai...tum ABS se kese linked ho..
ABHI:(hiding his eyes...)vo.. u..um..
...
SLAP...
the whole domain echoed with a loud slap, which resulted in a deep cut at the corner of the lips...from which blood started dripping down profusely...making the bearer fall down in pain...
...
ACP and DAYA just averted their gazes, while unknowingly their fists clenched tightly...while ABHIJEET slightly opened HIS eyes when VEER yet again grabbed HIS collar, and yelled...
...
VM:(shouted...)kon ho tum...sirf sach sun na hai mujhe...(jerked...)bolo...
ABHI:(wincing in pain...)m.. mai sirf.. DH...DHRUV ka dost hu.. aur... aur kuch nhi..
VM:(interrupted...)dost...koi dost yun company matters mei interfere nhi krta... samjhe... hume bewkoof nahi bana sakte tum...bolo sach kya hai...
...
...
BUT VEER stopped, as the metallic door opened yet again and DCP CHITROLE along with another figure entered the premises...making the domain even worse with the new revelation...
...
