Chapter 4

...The Doctor....

Abhijeet stopped the car near a shop and bought mineral water and some food for the old man. He gave the food to that starving man who begun stuffing food greedily into his mouth as much as it could contain. After a while, the man stepped out of the car and managed to stand straight. He gave a thankful look towards slowly moved from there but stopped by Abhijeet's calm voice.

'Amm..jara suniye... '. Abhijeet took his purse from his Jean's pocket and offered the man some notes of 500,where the man refused to accept first, but received with a feeble smile when abhijeet compelled.

'Sambalke jaana...' He patted the old man's shoulder lightly with his special one-sided smirk.

The man left them.

Here, Tarika was looking at Abhijeet all the time. His goodness and care towards that man touched her heart. This man has a pure soul..

'To chale, Tarika ji? '

Her thought was broken by his question.

'Haaan.. ' Both of them got inside the car again.

'So..you are a doctor,right?' Abhijeet asked stealing a glance towards her while driving.

'Aapko kaise pata chala? 'She was surprised.

Abhijeet made a proud face and continued. 'It's quite simple, it's called detection' his reply made tarika to narrow her eyes and he said 'I mean, the way you nursed that man,bilkul professional ki tarah.. Made me conclude that you are a doctor.. Or a nurse may be.. '

His eyes were still on the road.

'Hm.. Impressive. Anyways, you're right. I'm a doctor.' She declared.

Now they're in the highway.

'Hey, you can drop me here. I'll hire a taxi. By the way, thanks a lot Abhijeet. '

She thanked him again while getting out of the car.

The car was stopped by him near a taxi stand which made easy for Tarika to hire a taxi.

He smirked at her which he got same from her. He drove off and she hired a taxi in order to reach her destination.

.

.

The taxi stopped in front of the C.I.D bureau Mumbai.

'Hmm.. At last I'm here. 'She sighed and made quick steps toward the multi-storied building. She pressed the button which engraved the number 3 in the lift and stepped inside. She checked herself and made sure her looks are good by looking in her phone's camera and had a little touchup before the lift reaches the destination.

"Third Floor"

She stepped outside and found herself standing in a corridor. Tarika made her way through that corridor which only two people can walk abreast. And she's almost there.. There is an opening in the left side and she entered to the bureau and found some officers working there.

A lady whose hairs were gathered into a pony tail with wheat complexion, expressive eyes and a pretty round face,with rosy cheecks wearing a light pink coloured shirt and cream coloured pants is typing something in her system. She oftenly blinks and checks the file placed in the table to ensure that the content is precise.

Tarika's eyes travelled to a guy who is rather short and chubby but cute like a teddy, white in complexion and wearing glasses who is sitting in a chair near the table were a pile of files are lying. His annoyed expression made Tarika smile a bit.

A man is sitting near the guy who is nearly of age 40 plus and he is busy with his files. He had a straight face, with a moustache and his brows were raised up.

Tarika took small steps towards that lady, who is engrossed in her work and failed to notice Tarika coming toward her.

'Excuse me. '

'Yes? ' lady averted her gaze from the screen and her eyes are now sticked on tarika's face.

'Hello, I'm Dr. Tarika.' Tarika handed an envelope to the lady which she just took from her purse.

The lady read the letter and a smile appeared on her face eventually.

'Oh.. So, our new forensic doctor! Welcome, Dr. Tarika. And.. I'm Inspector. Purvi'. She offered her right hand towards tarika and they shaked hands.

Purvi turned towards the men who were working there:

'Pankaj, Freddy sir,ye Dr. Tarika. Our new forensic doctor hai. 'And to Tarika, 'Dr. Tarika, inspector Pankaj and Freddy sir'.

Pankaj and Freddy moved near Tarika and both of them welcomed her with a warm smile.

'Arre waah,yeh to bahot acchi baat Salunke sir ko finally ek assistant mil gayi. 'Freddy said with a bright face.

Purvi replied him with a smile which showed her cute dimples. ' Dr. Tarika, Aapko Forensic Lab me jaake pahale report karna hoga. Vaha pe Salunkhe Sir honge. Filal abhi humare boss ACP sir yaha pe moujud nhi hai isliye aapko Salunkhe sir ke paas hi report karna padega.'

'Haa sure, Actually I'm already late. I've tried calling him but he didn't pick up.. Anyways, where's the lab? 'Tarika asked purvi.

'Aaiye me dikhata hu aapko. 'Purvi and Tarika headed toward the forensic lab where Pankaj and Freddy returned to their respective seats.
