They were searching for Abhijeet like mad, after getting the dead body of a junior cop in that condition they have become so restless.

And in all this chaos Daya's phone rang..he picked it up in rush without seeing caller id " hello senior inspector Daya here "

" Daya ..sab theek hai na wahan ? "

Daya hurriedly saw the number and felt to kick himself, he didn't want to make panic anyone without finding Abhijeet and now he was sure hearing his tense voice Acp sir has sense that something is wrong.. however he tried to hide the matter for time being " Hello sir, I m sorry wo maine number dekhe bina hi...( taking a pause ) sab ..sab theek hai sir..."

He heard Adi's voice in background" Dadu mujhe phone do na...mujhe chachu se baat karni hai "

" Are beta pahle mujhe to baat karne do ( he could imagine his baby's pout )...ok ok mooh mat banao ... lo pahle tum hi baat karlo apne chachu se "

" Thank you Dadu...you are so sweet "

" Hello chachu "

Daya heard Adi's excited voice and felt a crack in his heart , he uttered with difficulty " hi beta "

" chachu aap papa ko lekar kab aa rahe ho..yahan pe puri taiyari ho gyi hai ..humne decoration bhi karli hai...papa ki sari favourite dishes bhi banke ready hai ...aur Mumma ne to cake bhi bana liya hai...ye sab kuch dekhkar papa kitne happy ho jaenge..hai na chachu ...maine to papa ke liye best birthday card bhi banaya hai ..oho ek important baat to bhool hi gya mai.. aapna papa ko eyes close karke lana ghar ke andar...ok ?????? "

Daya's tears were running down from his cheeks , he put his fist into mouth to stop his crying..

Freddy saw his condition and felt pang in his heart..he took mobile from Daya's hand , he composed himself and said " Hello Adi beta .."

" Hiiiiii Sweet uncle...aap kaise ho ? "

Freddy in tears " Mai theek hun beta...aa..aap kaise ho ? "

Adi in smile " Mai to bahut accha hun...sweet uncle aap log kb ghar aa rahe ho...mujhe papa ko birthday wish karni hai aur mera surprise birthday gift bhi dena hai "

Dev slapped his forehead from behind " tu phone rakhega..tabhi to aenge na wo log chhote "

" oho bhaiya..mujhse wait nahi ho rahi ab ... papa ko hug karna hai mujhe na "

Everyone in home looked at Adi in awe... Freddy's voice clogged in his throat " hum Aapke papa ko jldi ghar leke aa rahe... okay ? "

" okay sweet uncle... bye "


" Dekha ise...khud ka baat ho gya to phone kaat diya...( childishly ) mujhe bhi to baat karni thi Daya se "

" oho Dadu.. aap baat karte to unhe late ho jata na...( patting his forehead ) kuch samajhte hi nahi ho aap "

Adi left from there leaving Everyone with half open mouth...

salunkhe sir in astounded smile " ye bilkul Ahhijeet pe gya hai iss mamle me..."

" Accha accha chhor ye sab..maine tujhe bola tha orphanage me donation bhejne ke liye...bheja tune ? "

Salunkhe bit his tongue " boss wo .. sorry yaar "

" pata tha mujhe..tujhe ek bhi kaam dena hi nahi chahiye tha mujhe...janta hai na tu mai har saal Abhijeet aur Daya ke janamdin pe unke naam se donation deta hun fir ..."

" Are yaar abhi bhejwa deta hun na..tu itna hyper kyun ho raha hai "

" Mai hyper nahi ho raha salunkhe...mai bas apne bete ke birthday me koi kami nahi rakhna chahta bas...(in dream smile ) yahi to ek din hai jab wo kisiko apne liye kuch karne se mana nahi karta..( sad sigh ) warna baaki ke din to wo sirf humari Jaroorato ka dhyan rakhte beeta deta hai..dusro ko khus karte karte use apni khusi ka parwah hi nahi rehta "

salunkhe sense sogginess in his voice so said in comforting tone " wo nahi karta khudki parwah kyunki use pata hai uski family hai uske khusiyo ka khyal rakhne ke liye...(in fresh tone ) tum chinta mat karo boss...dekhna aaj mai Abhijeet ki birthday kitna sandar manaunga "

" Di bas bahut ho gya kitchen work...abhi aap mere saath ready hone chl rahi ho...bas "

Shreya dragged her instead of her insisting and took her in room..and she began to search in cupboard

" shreya ye tu kya kar rahi hai yaar..mai aise hi theek "

shreya cut her while handing a deep blue saree " Di jayo aur jaldi ise pehan ke ayo aap "

" shreya tu sun "

" Mai behri ho chuki hun " shreya said closing her ears

Tarika laughed " accha baba ja rahi mai "

Tarika came back after a while adjusting her saree plates..

shreya clutched her heart " hayeeeee...aaj jeeju to dekhke behos ho jaenge aapko "

Tarika's cheek turn beet root " kya tu bhi.. kuch bhi bolti rehti hai "

Shreya gigled and made her sit on dressing chair..she dolled her with simple pendant on her neck, big dangling ear rings..her hair was open and kept it on a shoulder side while some curls were falling from both sides..shreya has not done heavy make up of her but she was looking gorgeous in her simple elegant look..

Shreya smiled in satisfaction seeing her sister looking world's most beautiful girl today..she hugged her from behind " Di aap bahut hi pyari lag rahi ho "

Tarika looked at her own reflection while raising her eye and indeed she was looking gorgeous

Tarika jaa aaj aap itni khubsurat lag rahi hai ki aapko dekhkar chand bhi Sharma jaye

oh god Abhijeet chand and all... mujhe itni tareef sunne ki adat nahi hai apni

To adat daal lijiye..kyunki aajke baad aapko aise complement milte rahenge

She smiled dreamly remembering the beautiful memory of her life..

Shreya in naughty tone " agar mai galat nahi hun to aapke man me jaroor ye chl raha hai ki aaj jeeju aapko dekhkar kya complement dene wale hai "

" Na..nahi to "

" aap jhoot bol sakti ho par aapki ye aankhe nahi jinme saaf likha hai aapki man ki baat ( Tarika lower down her head smiling shyly )

shreya looped her arms around her neck " aapko pata hai..bhai ko aaj best birthday gift milega apni Tarika jee ko unke favourite colour me dekhkar ..he is going to he so much elated "

Tarika touched her cheek and said lovingly " thank you "


purvi was calling Abhijeet's name loudly while searching when she tripped into something and fall down, a big aaaah came out from her mouth as a deep gash formed on her forearm " Ahhhh...maaa "

she rubbed her arm and stood up but her breath stuck in her throat seeing Abhijeet was lying unconscious in a big deep pit..

" Dayaaaaaaaaa sirrrrrrr...Daya sir please jldi aye...( she was looking so much panic and hysterical ) Abhijeet sir...sir please ankhe kholiye...sirrrrrrrr "

" puri kya hua tum " Daya and all members came running hearing purvi's loud voice

purvi pointing her finger " sir Abhijeet sir "

Daya became numb seeing his brother lying motionless..his heart shivered for a while but soon he gained his senses seeing the emergency situation and Rushed to take ropes from car. He came back and tied the rope tightly around trunk of tree and climbed down .

" Abhi "

He turned his brother toward him and became stunned seeing his shirt has turned red ...and there was not showing any sign of life in his body and face..

Daya patted his cheek " Abhiiiiii...Abhi please ankhe kholo...(he opened his shirt's upper button and his heart clenched in pain and fear seeing two cruel bullet wounds in his brother's body )...

Till then everyone has also reached there.. Freddy hold Abhijeet's hand and cries " Abhijeet sir please ankhe kholiye apni .. please sir...

Daya checked his pulse and his breath stopped finding nothing , he became numb..no, no...this can't be happening..his brother couldn't leave him and his family like this... it's not happening.. God please...

" kya hua sir ? " Rajat asked panickly eyeing Daya's materialised figure

Daya while speaking with difficulty " ye saans...(he looked at his brother's pale face and broke down ) Abhi please yaar..tum hume aise chhorke nahi ja sakte... ( he rubbed his palm vigorously ) please say something Abhi... please "

Rajat was giving pressure to Abhijeet's chest..purvi and Freddy was rubbing his foot sole for making his body warm..

Daya was looking helpless and frightened..he was feeling everything was slipping like a sand from his hand, his family's happiness, his Bhabhi's life, his Adi's innocence, his father's strength and for god shake his soul without whom he couldn't able be to live ..he couldn't let his everything go..he couldn't..

" Abhijeet breath please...( he pressed his chest with more force ) breath Abhi...( his tone was changing into hurt and pain ) you can't do this to me ... please bhai... breath...(he turned angry )I m saying you to breath damn it...kyun nahi sun rahe tum meri haan ...ghar pe sab tumhara intejar kar rahe hai , tumhara birthday celebrate karne ke liye aur ...tum yahan so rahe ho...(he pointed his finger toward him and said childishly ) iss baar Adi aur apni ladli kitty ka gussa tum akele sambhalna ...mai nahi manane wala unko...samjhe

Daya was losing hope with each second ..his tears fall down on Abhijeet's face while he hugged his brother tightly " please Abhi iss tarah beech raah me akela chhorke mat jayo mujhe...mai kisko nahi sambhal paunga boss ..na unhe ...na khudko...( he cried harshly while saying so many please to his bhai )

Abhijeet could hear someone was calling him in extreme pain..he tried to catch the voice but he couldn't know from where the voice was reaching to him..he felt a soft soothing hand on his head and his eyes got open and the first thing his mind made for him was a cute fairy of Adi's age..she was looking at him with pure concern and unknown happiness..Abhijeet felt an unknown but deep connection to the baby girl who was smiling innocently at him..he raised his hand and touched her cheek tenderly

" Dadda "

pause.. Everything has become pause hearing this one word . He always want to hear it from his Aanya's mouth only ..and now hearing this from mysterious angelic face's fairy looking baby girl..he felt a spark in his body and heart. He sat up slowly and started at her with hurt, pain and love in his eyes..

" aapne mujhe nahi pehchana dadda...mai aapki gudiya hun...( she said sweetly ) aapki Aanya "

Abhijeet became numb..his body felt paralyzed..he looked at her face properly and noticed the same brown honey eyes , button nose, rosy cheeks and plump pink lips just like his new born baby..he felt goosebumps errupted all over his body. He was not able to believe in his own eyes..was really he watching his gudiya..was it a dream or hallucinations..

Aanya move toward him and made him touch her cheek " mai sacchi me aapke samne hun dadda ...(with a cute sad face ) mujhe to laga tha aap mujhe dekhkar happy ho joge...(she lowers down her head ) par aapto mujhe jante hi nahi "

Abhijeet 's dam of emotions just broke..his heart identified his angel ..he just pulled his baby in hug and cuddle her tightly " Meri Anni...meri gudiya...( he aparted her From hug and gave so many kisses on her forehead and cheeks )..dadda apni princess ko na pehchanne aisa ho sakta hai kya...haan ?

Aanya's eyes sparkled..she nodded her head in no...Abhijeet laughed on his innocent daughter and made her sit on his lap ..he carresed her long smoothy hair while keeping her head on his chest " kahan chali gayi thi aap apne dadda ko chhorke...(in tears ) aapko pata hai wahan mai aur mumma kitna miss karte hai aapko ...( he cupped her face and said in possessive tone ) bas bahut dur reh liye aap hum sabse...ab mai aapko apne saath lekar jaunga...( he kissed on her forehead ) aur kabhi khud se dur nahi jane dunga "

Aanya in sad tone " dadda mai aapke saath nahi ja sakti "

Abhijeet in afraid and shocking tone " kyun bacche ? "

Aanya kept her head on his father's chest again who wrapped his doll in his secured shell instantly " agar mai aapke paas aa gayi to yahan Dadi ka dhyan kaun rakhega...wahan to aapke aur mumma ke paas sabbbb koi hai...par yahan daadi bahut akeli hai...agar mai aapke paas aa gayi to unka kaun dhyan rakhega...?

Abhijeet in childish tone " to fir mai bhi nahi jata fir...mai bhi aapke aur maa ke saath yahi rahunga bas "

" Hawwww...to fir mumma, dadu , Adi, chachu...in sabka kya hoga...ye log aapke bina kaise rahenge dadda ..bolo "

Abhijeet smiled in tears listening his daughter's mature talk " agar wo log mere bina nahi reh sakte ...( he took her hands and kissed on it ) to mai bhi to aapke bina nahi reh sakta na...mai, Tarika, Adi...( in pain ) hum sab bahut adhure hai aapke bina meri pari... (his eyes filled with tears ) please apne dadda ko khud se mat dur karo fir se...

Aanya wiped his tears with his soft little hand " Dadda please na aap mat royo...mujhe bahut bad lagta hai aapko rote dekhkar..."

Abhijeet in childish tone " to fir mujjse dur jane ki baat mat karo na aap...mai kabhi nahi royunga ...(pinching his neck ) pakka promise "

Aanya looped her hand around his waist " sorry ...dadda na aap mere saath reh sakte ho aur nahi mai aapke saath ja sakti hun wapas...kyunki meri duniya bahut alag ho gyi hai dadda...ab mai wapas uss duniya me nahi ja sakti..."

Abhijeet cried while hugging her baby to his chest while murmuring " sorry beta..I m really sorry...agar mai aapko bacha leta to aap ko kabhi mujhse dur nahi jana parta...apne dadda ko maaf kardo gudiya wo acche dadda nahi ban paye bilkul "

Aanya in sad tone " Dadda aap please aisa mat bolo... ( in loving tone while broading her hand ) aap to duniya ke sabse acche dadda ho .. aur mai yahan ayi kyunki god jee ko mai bahut hi pyari lag gayi isliye..aapki to ek bhi galti nahi hai..sacchi... aur fir sacchi me mai yaha bahut khus hun bahut sara... "

Abhijeet felt sooth hearing this..he hugged his daughter lovingly and kissed on her forehead " aap sachme bahut pyari ho meri pari..aur agar aap khus ho to mai bhi bahut khus hun "

" Dadda ...ab aapko jana chahiye... chachu dekho kitna ro rahe hai aapke liye "

" par "

" aap mere pyare chachu ko rulaoge kya ? "

Abhijeet smiled, though pain of seperating was clearly visible in his eyes and nod his head in no

Aanya smiled brightly and kissed on his cheek " ye hui na mere dadda wali baat...accha ab mere jane ka time ho gya hai..mai chlti hun...( she started to step back with a light smile and moistened eyes )...mumma ko bolna mai unko bahut miss karti hun

Abhijeet in tears " I Love you beta "

Aanya smiled and shouted before disappearing In white smoke " And I Love you too Dadda "

Daya was so much broken " Abhi please ankhe kholo... please "

Rajat, purvi and Freddy was crying badly as they have accepted the bitter truth that their Abhijeet sir was no more with them..

" sir hume Daya sir ko sambhalna hoga " purvi said with heavy tone

Rajat looked at Daya who was crying badly while hugging his brother securely in his arm.. he kept his hand on Daya's shoulder " sir... please sambhalye apne aapko "

" Rajat ... dekho na ise kitna bol raha hun uthne ko...par ye meri baat sun hi nahi raha hai...( he aparted Abhijeet from hug and placed a hand on his cheek ) hey Abhi.. please uth na yaar...kuch to bol... please bhai...(he touched his forehead with him ) tumne to kaha tha na boss ki mai tujhe kabhi nahi rone dunga Daya ye tere bare bhai ka wada hai...fir kyun to rahe ho wada...agar tumne aankh nahi na kholi apni to mai jeendgi bhar rota rahunga aur kisike kahne se rukunga bhi nahi ...(he pleaded in pain-filled-tears ) please Abhi ?

" sir wo ab nahi uthenge...wo jake chuke hai "

Daya screamed in pain " No...kuch nahi hua hai mere bhai ko ..theek hai wo bilkul ...samjhe tumlog...( he hugged him again ) abhi to hume ghar jake iska birthday bhi celebrate karna hai..cake katega ye aur main na birthday cap bhi pehnaunga ise iss baar..mujje tang kar raha hai na isliye...aur sara pastry chhupa dunga ek bhi khane ko nahi milegi...

He was Just talking and mumbling to himself...Rajat hide his face in palm and shouted in pain... everything was getting snatch from them and they couldn't do anything except crying for their loss..

" sir Daya sir aise nahi sambhlenge ..hume Acp sir "

His words remain incomplete as they heard a sudden gasp from Abhijeet's mouth..

Daya looked at his brother for some moment and then shouted " CALL THE AMBULANCE NOW "

And he just picked up his brother in arms while promising to himself that he would not let happen anything to his brother at any cost..

Daya looking at Abhijeet's unconscious face " tumhe kuch nahi hoga Abhi...just be with me..mai kuch nahi hone dunga tumhe "
