Chapter Two: Daraar Ke Shuruwaat
Recap:
Aishu was brought to Shreya's house. Daya completes his work and goes to Shreya's house. They have got no clue of Amal. Abhijeet and Tarika also joins Shreya and Daya. Shreya and Tarika go to the kitchen to make coffee and they hear Aishu screaming for Shreya.
Ab Aage:
Aishu screaming: SHREYYA DIDI….
Shreya and Tarika gets scared and they move out to the whole. They see Aishu scared and Shreya runs to her. The front door was opened and Abhijeet and Daya had gone out. Aishu hugs Shreya tightly and cries. The fear was clearly seen on her face. Shreya and Tarika had seen the window was broken and there were glass pieces all over. They sensed an attack and moved to the bedroom with Aishu in Shreya's arms.
Shreya: kuch nahi hoga beta…main hoona aapke saath…chalo so jao…
Aishu: aap kahi mat jaana… plomise?
Shreya: nahin main kahi nahi jaa rahi hoon…Promise…ab aap so jao...
Shreya and Tarika didn't ask about what happened then to Aishu and waited for the duo to return. Shreya slowly kept patting Aishu's head while Aishu was in her arms and put her to sleep.
Meanwhile in the Kitchen:
Someone had crept in through the windows and added something into one of the four cups placed there. This man then smiled wickedly and left from the scene immediately before any eye falls upon him. After going from there,
Stranger: Ab aayega maza… Aishu…tujhe to mujse koyi bhi nahi bacha sakta…and gave out a wicked laughter.
In Shreya's house:
The duo had returned back and moved to the bedroom. Aishu had slept off. Shreya made her lie on the bed and moved to the duo.
Abhijeet and Daya: Aishu teekh haina…
Shreya: kya hua tha sir…
Tarika: aur Aishu itna dari hui kyun hain…baat kya hain…
Daya: Voh actually…and then Daya tells them what happened.
**Flashback Begins**
Daya, Abhijeet and Aishu were playing and teasing each other when suddenly the window crashed and a stone landed on the floor. Aishu got scared seeing this and screamed for Shreya. Abhijeet and Daya saw someone running.
Abhi: Hey…ruko….
He opened the door and moved out to catch the man. Daya seeing Shreya coming out, moves out along with Abhijeet as he knew now Shreya would be with Aishu. However the man had escaped and the duo returned back in vain.
**Flashback Ends**
Tarika: voh aise humla kyun kiya hoga? Stone pe kuch message mila….like agar vo chetavni dene keliye aaye ho…
Abhijeet: chetavni dene keliye aaya hoga…pata nahi…shayad voh yeh dikhana chahtha hain ki vo Shreya key aha bhi pohunch sakta hain…
Daya: pata nahi yaar…magar ab aur dhyaan rakhna padega…hum sab ke hote huyi bhi, use itna himmat… Ek kaam karte hain humme se koyi aaj yaha rukte hain..Shreya ke saath..
Shreya: Nahi sir…main hoona yaha ….I will take care…vaise bhi mujhe ab neend nahi aane waali hain… Aap mein se kisiko yaha rahne ki zaroorat nahi hain…
Daya: Magar Shreya…Tum akele kaise…tum bhi thaki hui ho…
Shreya: nahi sir…I am fine…
Daya: magar Shreya…
Shreya: sir…
Daya: hmmm…ok…but be careful… still not sure, but he believed his love that she would take care of herself as well as Aishu…hmmm… (Did he just call her 'his love'? or did I? ;)….hmmm….Daya manne ye na manne…hume pata hain ki he loves her…)
Shreya: ya…main sab keliye coffee leke aati hun…
Tarika: nahi tum yaha beto Aishu ke saath…main leke aati hoon…
Tarika goes and gets the coffee for everybody. She goes and gives Abhijeet and then moves to Daya. When Daya was about to take a cup,
Shreya says: sir who meri cup hain….sorry… and smiles at him…
Daya smiles at her and takes another cup. Shreya takes her cup and Tarika takes the last cup. They all drink their coffee and got ready to leave. Abhijeet and Tarika move sout first after bidding good bye to Shreya. Daya goes to Aishu, kisses her upon her forehead and moves out of the bedroom.
Daya: Take care of Aishu… aur kal main kisi ko bhej dungi yeh window repair karne ke liye..
Shreya: ok sir…good night… she felt her head heavy.
Daya: Good Night…
Daya too leaves and goes to his house. Shreya closes the door and moves to her bedroom. She felt her eyes heavy and was slowly closing all by itself.
Shreya: nahi main nahi so sakti…I need to be careful…thakan ke vajh se I guess…
She jolted the bedroom door and made sure all the windows were locked. Then she moved to the bed and lied down beside Aishu and kept caressing her. Gradually, before she even realized, she gradually drifted off into sleep.
Next day morning, At 7 am.
Shreya wakes up and stretches her arm. She happily goes and opens the curtain and let the light fall into the room. She then turns to check upon Aishu and gets shocked. The bed just had a bedsheet, two pillows on it and a comforter. AISHU WAS NOWHERE ON THE BED. Shreya felt the floor slipping away from beneath her. Shreya calls out for Aishu.
Shreya: Aishu….AIshu…
She looks under the bed, behind the curtains and searched the whole room. Then she saw the jolt on the door was broken.
Shreya: Aishu tu kaha hain…Shreya didi ko yhe mazak bilkul pasand nahi aa rahi hain…baahar aa jao bacha…please….
She opened the door and ran out to the hall and searched the hall, the kitchen, the toilets. But found Aishu nowhere. Her eyes started tearing up. She then moves to the front door to go out and finds the front door lock broken. She went out and searched her immediate surroundings but found Aishu nowhere. Though her brain understood what might have happened, her heart was still not ready to believe. She broke down there itself and fell to the ground crying. She still remembers how Daya had entrusted her the duty of taking care of Aishu. He knew there was danger all over and hence also suggested of letting someone stay there the previous night.
Shreya: ab main kaise Daya sir ko bolungi….kaise main unhe face karoongi…sir sahi keh rahe the…kisi ko mere saath rehna chahiye tha… kya main ek chotti si bachi ko bhi sambhaal nahi sakti… pata nahi main kaise so gayi…itni bhi thaki hui nahi thi main…..kaise CID officer hoon main…and continued crying….
Finally she got up controlling herself and goes back in to call Daya and tell. However her hands were shivering. She didn't have the courage to tell him. She hence decided to tell Abhijeet. She calls him up.
Abhijeet: hello…Shreya… kya baat hain…. He didn't get a reply from the other side and he could her sniff through the phone…Now he got tensed.
Abhijeet: kya hua Shreya…bolo…tum teekh hona? Aishu teekh haina? Bolon….
Shreya: Sir…and starts crying.
Now Abhijeet understood that situations were not so good.
Abhijeet: ruko Shreya…main aati hoon…
He calls Tarika too and asks her also to come up to Shreya's house as she could handle her better. He decided not to tell Daya anything then. He would call him up once he himself got to know what the issue is. Both Abhijeet and Tarika reach Shreya's house at the same time. They see the door was opened. Infact they saw the lock broken. They move forward and see Shreya sitting and crying.
Tarika goes to Shreya and keeps her hand on her shoulders.
Tarika: Shreya….
Shreya seeing Tarika, hugs her.
Abhijeet: kya baat hain…Shreya bolon…Aishu kaha hain…calmly he asks her.
Shreya: Sir Aishu yaha nahi hain….wo pata nahi kaise mere aankh lag gayi aur mein so padi…mujhe kuch pata nahi chala…aur jab mein subah utthi tab dekha ki Aishu yaha kahi par bhi nahi hain…She describes what happened that morning.
Abhijeet: Shreya tum aise kaise so sakti hain… voh log yeh lock thodne mein atleast awaz kiya ho…aur tumhe kuch pata nahi chala….
Shreya: nahi sir…vahi tho…sir main ek chotti si bachchi ko bhi sambhaal nahi saki…pata nahi main itna sothi bhi nahi hoon….aur phir bhi…and continues crying. She was feeling guilty.
Abhijeet: dekthe hain kuch milta hain ki nahi…and is about to move to search the place for further clues.
Shreya: sir….
Abhijeet: haan Shreya…
Shreya: voh…Daya Sir…
Abhijeet himself didn't know how to put this forward to Daya. Daya wanted to make sure that Aishu is safe and that's the reason he wanted someone else to stay up with Shreya. But now he didn't know how Daya would react when he hears this. However, Abhijeet gathers some courage and calls up Daya and asks him to come to Shreya's house. Daya come to Shreya's house and sees the search going on. He goes to Abhijeet.
Daya: Boss, yeh kya ho raha hain… and he sees Shreya too crying.
Daya: bolon…kya hua hain….Shreya ro kyun rahi hain…. Aur Aishu kaha hain…voh teekh haina….
Abhijeet: Daya…Aishu is missing. And he tells him what happened the previous night.
Daya was shocked and also got angry. He remembers his promise.
**Flashback Starts**
The previous night at Shreya's house, Abhijeet gets a call in between and moves out to talk.
Aishu to Daya….
Aishu: aap uss uncle ko pakda jo mumma ko knife se maala (maara)?
Daya: bohut jald pakdenege bacha…
Aishu: aur agal unhone mujhe knife se maala tho?
Daya: nahi marenge…kaise marenge…main hoona …main apko kuch hone nahi denge…
Aishu: Plomich?
Daya: Pukka Promise! Smiling…
**Flashback Ends**
Daya: Aise kaise ho sakta hain…Shreya aise kaise so sakti hain… uske pass se kissi ko utha ke chale aur use to bilkul pata nahi chali ki…how is that possible…who utni thak gayi thi…
Daya goes to Shreya.
Daya: maine tumse kaha tha ki hum mein se koyi yaha rahenge…phir bhi tumne nahi suna…tumhare bharose maine uss chotti si bachchi ko yah ape chodha….voh bhi tum par kitna vishwas karti thi ki tum use kuch hone nahi denge… phir bhi tum uss chotti si bachi ko sambhaal nahi saki…yeh kaise neend thi…teekhe mujhe pata hain tum thaki hui thi…isliye amine kaha ki koyi yaha tumhare saath rahe….tumne hi mujhe vishwass dilaya ki tum usse kuch hone nahi denge…phir bhi… kuch bologe bhi…
Shreya: *still crying* sir mujhe pata nahi chala ye sab kaise hua…I don't know….jab main utthi maine use nahi dekhi…aur phir maine sabko bulaya…sir pata hain meri galti hain…
Daya: cuts her…haan tumhari hi galti hain…pata nahi tha ki tum ek CID officer hoke itna laaparva ho sakta hain…
Abhijeet: Daya,…sambhaalo apne aap ko….aur Shreya ne bola na ki usse khud pata nahi hain ki yeh kaise hua..
Daya: that's the problem…usse khud pata nahi chali..kyun? kyun pata nahi hain…ek CID officer ko sone ke wakt bhi hosh mein rehna zaroori hain…and agar usse kisi ki suraksha ke liye rakha ho tho usse sona hi nahi chahiye…yah phir hosh main hona chahiye… yeh tho… looking at Shreya.
Shreya was feeling more and more guilty.
Abhijeet: tum gusse mein kuch zyada hi bol rahe hon…yaar kisi se bhi ho sakta hain…
Daya: agar ye kissi aur se hua ho tho shayad main itna dukhi nahi hote…ispar tho mujhe bohut vishwas tha…vishwas ko thoda hain….baar baar mujhe Aishu ko diya hua promise yaad aate hain ki main usse kuch hone nahi denge… Hope she is fine.
Daya glares at Shreya once more and moves out from there angrily.
Shreya: maine daya sir ka vishwas thoda….haan main daya sir ka vishwas thoda…main CID mein rehne ki kaabil nahi hoon…main resignation de dungi…main ek chotti si bachchi ko bacha nahi paayi… and cries. Tarika consoles her.
Abhijeet: yeh tum kya anaap shanaap bol rahi hon….Aishu ko sirf kidnap kiya…kuch hua nahi use…hum usse doondh nikhalenge…aur kya resignation ke bare mein bol rahi hon….tum kahi nahi jaa rahe ho..
Shreya: nahi sir…Daya sir teekh keh rahe hain…main CID mein rehne ki kaabil nahi hoon…
Abhijeet: Aisa nahi hain Shreya…voh gusse mein hain…voh ye man se nahi keh raha hain…
Shreya: sir gusse mein sab log sach bolte hain….aur pata hain Daya sir gusse mein hain…phir bhi job hi unhine khaha vo galat tho nahi hain… so I have decided to resign.
Abhijeet: agar tum resignation denge to phir tum Aishu ko kaise doondhenge?
Shreya: bhagwaan kare sab teekh hon…Aishu ko doondhne ke baad main apni resignation de dungi….
Abhijeet: voh hum tab dekhenge…ab jaake ready ho jaa…hum bureau chalet hain…
Shreya smiles sarcastically and moves in to get ready.
Abhijeet: Shreya itni laaparva nahi hain…zaroor kuch aur baat hain…
Tarika: tum kehna kya chahte hon?
Shreya comes out ready.
Abhijeet: Shreya kya tumhe so jaane se pehle sir bhaari bhaari sa laga…?
Shreya: haan sir…aur sone se pehle aisa laga ki koyi meri aankh forcefully bandh kar rahe ho…
Abhijeet: tum sone se pehle kuch khayi piyi thi?
Shreya: nahi sir…sirf coffee piya tha…aap sab logon ke saath…
Abhijeet: hmm… Ek kaam karo…tum jaake baitho…main abhi aati hoon.
Abhijeet goes into Shreya's bedroom and finds her coffee glass still there. He takes it and leaves from there along with others.
