THE STORY:
ALL WENT TO THERE RESPECTIVE ROOMS..
Abhijeet came and burst out in crying..
Abhijeet: maa aap dekh rahi ho na.. aap dekh rahi ho Daya kaisa kar rah hai mere sath.. aaj jab usne mera hhat pakra na mujhe laga mujhe mera Daya wapas
mil gaya.. par nehi.. Daya to uthke chala hi gaya.. khud bhi ro raha hai.. mujhe bhi rula raha hai.. aap danto na use maa.. achhse se dant do..
Daya came in his room.. and thew himself on the bed.. buried his face into the pillow.. and he did not know when he slept..
MORNING AROSE:
Daya woke up..
Daya(sighed): phir ek subha.. (he thought for a moment..) bhaiya kal kitna roya.. meri waja se na.. maine rulaya bhaiya ko? haa.. maine hi rulaya.. jake sorry
bolta hu.. he was about to go..
nehi nehi.. kya sochenge bhaiya..
(he tried to satisfy himself.. and said with confidence) aur.. aur.. mai kyu jau? mai to naraz hu na.. aur.. unhone galti bhi ki hai.. mera naraz hona to banta hai..
(but his confident vanished in some moments) phir bhi.. ek bar jake dekhta hu.. chupke se jaunga.. aur chupke se wapas aajaunga...
he moved out from his room.. and went to his bhaiya's room.. it was just morning.. oldie duo was not awaken.. birds were started chattering.. an amazing
atmosphere was present there..
Daya: kya mai bhiaya se ja kar ek bar sorry bhi nehi bol sakta.. itna duri aa gayi hai humare bich..
nehi rehene hi deta hu.. bas ek bar dekhke aajata hu..
he came to the door.. unlock it very carefully so that it did not make any sound.. and peeped in.. but he was shocked.. Abhijeet was not present there..
Daya: bhaiya.. yeh kaha chale geye? he opened the door a bit more.. but no sign of him.. he noticed the bed.. it seemed that no one slept on that in previous
night.. he at last entered into the room.. and looked at washroom.. no he was not there..
Daya: terrace pe honge sayed.. jau ek bar? par bhaiya kuch puchenge to kya bolunga? bol dunga ki bas aise hi aaya hu.. haa.. walk karne aaya hu.. haa.. yeh
hi thik rahega..
he climbed up some stairs and noticed that the terrace door was closed..
Daya: darwaza to andar se band hai.. matlab bhaiya terrace par nehi geye..
now he was tensed.. he remembered..
"Abhijeet yaha se chala jayega"
"woh cid chod dega"
"tum naraz ho sakte ho.. woh nehi ho sakta"..
Daya just whispered.. "nehi bhaiya".. he ran to oldie duo's room..
He knocked Acp sir's room door..
Daya: Paa.. Paa.. uthiye.. Paa darwaza kholiye..
he then went tyo Salunkhe sir's room..
Daya: chachu.. chachu.. darwaza kholiye na.. dekhiye na bhaiya...
Acp sir(from behind): bhaiya! kya hua hai Abhijeet ko?
Daya came to him.. and said in tensed tone.. fear was present in his voice..
Daya: woh.. bhaiya ghar par nehi hai..
meanwhile Salunkhe sir woke up..
Salunkhe sir: ghar par nehi hai matlab?
Daya: haa.. unhe maine room mei dhunda...aur aur terrace par bhi.. nehi hai woh..
Acp sir: aare honge kahi aur.. tum itna ghabrao mat..
Salunkhe sir: garden mei dekha?
Daya(in low tone): nehi..
Acp sir shook his head.. and called Abhijeet by his name from his room window.. from where the garden could be seen.. but Abhijeet did not answer.. after
three or four loud calls..
Daya: dekha.. kaha tha na maine..
Salunkhe sir: mai phone karta hu use.. he tried.. but the phone was coming switched off..
Acp sir: kya hua?
Salunkhe sir: phone band aaraha hai boss..
Acp sir: uff yeh larka..
Daya's eyes got teary..
Acp sir put his hand on his shoulder..
Acp sir: beta.. tension mat lo.. dekho.. kahi kam se gaya hoga.. hai na..
just then.. they heard a door opening sound..
Daya: bhaiya.. and he ran followed by oldie duo..
they saw Abhijeet was coming inside... Abhijeet too saw them.. and understood the matter..
Abhijeet: Paa.. ek informer se milne gaya tha.. wo subha subha aapko jagaya nehi.. sorry..
Daya came near to him..
Daya: koi message to rakhke jate na aap.. kitna pareshan ho geye the hum sab..
Abhijeet looked at him..
Abhijeet: ek dhokebaaz ke liye pareshan mat hua karo Daya.. time and energy waste hoga.. saying this he went to his own room.. leaving stunned Daya
behind..
oldie duo exchanged a glance.. Daya looked at he closed dorr of Abhijeet's room.. and went to his room..
Acp sir: Yaar..
Salunkhe sir: pata nehi boss.. sayed humara sara planing fail ho gaya..
Acp sir: tune to kaha tha.. aaj sab thik ho jayega..
Salunkhe sir: par mujhe kya pata tha ki aab Abhijeet bhi...
IN ABHIJEET'S ROOM..
He closed the windows and put down the curtain.. to make the room dark.. he was irritated by the light.. he sat on the bed.. and then lay down.. and closedf
the door...
DAYA'S ROOM:
Daya(to himself): ghar aandhera karke lait geye honge.. (sadly) bhaiya.. (stopped for a moment.. then said..) I am sorry bhaiya..
HERE ABHIJEET started thinking..
FLASHBACK:
the little poor Daya was suffering from memory loss.. so everything was unknown to him.. an awkward feeling was working inside that little brain and heart..
Abhijeet and Aakansha were in the kitchen.. Aankansha was working.. and Abhijeet was helping her..
Abhijeet: maa.. aap sac sach bataiye na.. Daya sab kuch yaad aayega yah nehi..
Aakansha stopped working for a moment.. and then sighed..
Aakansha: tujhse nehi chupaunga Jeet.. nehi Daya ko kabhi kuch yaad nehi aayega uske pichle jindegi ke bare mei..
Abhijeet(unintentionally): achha hai..
Aanksha: kya?
Abhijeet: aa.. nehi mera matlab hai.. Daya.. Daya ka dhyan rakhenge na hum..
Aankhi(smiled): mai janti hu tere man mei kya chal raha hai.. tu yehi soch raha hai na k agar Daya ko kuch yaad nehi aayega to Daya bus tere bhai aur mera
beta ho kar hi rahega.. aur kisike sath tujhe share nehi karna parega..
Abhijeet looked down and nodded silently in positive..
Aankhi: Jeet..
Abhijeet(instantly): mai mamoni se permission le lunga maa.. aur mamoni to humesha Daya ko dekh hi payenge na.. aab woh to dur chale geye na humhe chod
kar.. aab Daya ko yaad aaye aur na aaye.. kya faida? Daya thori na aapne maa ko dekh payega fir kabhi..
Aankhi: jeet.. yeh kya bol rehe ho tum? aisa koi bolta hai.. kuch bhi ho Devi Daya ki maa hai..
Abhijeet: to phir woh geye kyu? (Aankhi was going to say something.. but Abhijeet stopped her) bas mai kuch nehi janta.. Daya abb bas mera hai mera hai aur
mera hai.. saying this he moved away..
Aankhi(helplessly): hey bhagwan .. mai kya karu is larke ka.. kya kya soch raha hai yeh... god!.. kitna possessive ho raha hai yeh larka Daya ko le kar..
PRESENT:
Abhijeet: possessive to Daya bhi tha maa mujhe leke.. par sara equation ulta pulta ho gaya hai maa..
FLASHBACK:
here when Abhijeet was coming out.. he saw Daya was standing there..
Abhijeet became scared.. he thought that Daya heard everything..
Abhijeet: Daya.. tu yaha pe kya kar raha hai?
Daya nodded in no.. and intended to go..
Abhijeet held his hand.. and said..
Abhijeet(softly): Daya ruk.. kya baat hai.. bol na..
Daya remained silent.. Abhijeet bent down.. and said smilingly.. "bhook lagi hai?" instantly Daya looked at him.. and then looked down..
Abhijeet understood that the silence was giving the answer in positive..
Abhijeet: achha.. phir kaha kyu nehi? haa?
Daya(low tone): kisse kahunga?
Abhijeet became sad..
Abhijeet(again said in loving tone): kyu? mujhse kahega.. aapne bhaiya se kahega.. yah phir maa se kahega.. achha thik hai.. aa mere sath.. he held his hand
and took him to the kitchen..
Abhijeet(pointing towards his mother): yeh dekh.. yeh maa hai na humara.. (Aankhi smiled looking at Daya).. maa se kahega.. jabhi koi jaroorat paregi na
tujhe.. hum dono me se kisi ek ko bata dena bas. tera kam ho jayega.. hai na magic? Abhijeet smiled.. seeing that Daya too smiled..
and seeing the bonding of her two sons.. the mother smiled broadly..
PRESENT:
Here Daya was also in his trench of thought..
FLASHBACK:
Daya was trying to knot his shoelace.. but was not succeeded..
Abhijeet(in hurry): Daya.. jaldi chal... match shuru ho jayega..
Daya: haa.. ja raha hu.. do minute..
Abhijeet: aabey tujhe baithne ka jaga nehi milega gallary mei iske bad.. kya kar raha... he turned while saying this.. as he was at the opposite side of Daya...
Abhijeet: Daya.. kya kar raha hai? mujhe bol nehi sakta tha.. la idher la.. mai bandh deta hu.. he knot the shoelace.. and meantime he was giving instruction
continuously.. how to do that.. Daya was a good listener.. kab bara hoga tu haa? itna bhi nehi kar pata hai.. budhhuram..
Abhijeet: le ho gaya.. chal aab.. Daya smiled.. and two brothers came out from the house..
it was rainy day.. so water stagnant was there.. in the road here and there. Daya was choosing those watery place.. and was jumping on that... with sound..
"yehhh"..
Abhijeet: Daya.. kaya kar hai? aab mai dantunga tujhe.. idher aa.. sukhe jaga se chal.. but Daya was not the boy to listen that...
PRESENT:
Daya was laughing thinking those memory.. he was really living those days.. after some moment he came back to the present..
Daya: bhaiya.. aab mai shoelace bahndhna to sikh gaya.. kya mai bara ho gaya hu?
ABHIJEET WAS STILL IN PAST:
due to memory loss.. Daya forgot most of the game rule.. they used to play before..
Abhijeet: Daya.. aaj hum hide and seek khelenge.. ok?
Daya: wo kya hota hai?
Abhijeet: haa... mai batata hu.. ismei kya hota hai.. chote bhai ko aise aankho mei haat dalke khara hona parta hai.. aur 10 tak ginti karna parta hai.. aur bare
bhai ko.. is time ke bich chupna parta hai..
Daya: sirf bare bhai ko hi chupna parta hai.. chote bhai ko nehi..
Abhijeet(thinking): uff.. iska intelligence to abhi tak waisa hi hai.. (smiled) yeh to bohot achhi baat hai..
Abhijeet: haa.. chote bhai bhi chup sakte hai.. par baad mei... now.. you start counting.. aankh band karo... (daya did) haat rakhho.. he did.. ok.. aab gin.. mai
chupta hu..
Abhijeet hide himself.. and Daya ended his counting..
Daya: kaha ho? koi hai?
Abhijeet: mai yaha hu Daya.. is almirah ke piche.. dhundo..
Daya smiled.. and took steps tpwards that.. but he saw a lizard there.. and it was coming to him.. Daya took back step.. that creature took a step towards
him.. Daya took another step back.. now the lizard jumped on...
Daya(screamed): Bhaiyaaaaa...
Abhijeet got tensed.. and came out from there..
Abhijeet: Daya.. kya hua? haa? he hugged his little bro.. daya too hugged him.. and pointed towards that..
Abhijeet saw that the lizard got its food..
Abhijeet sighed.. and laughed..
Abhijeet: pagal.. wo to chipkli hai.. lizard.. dekh kuch nehi karega.. darpok hai.. idher aa..
Daya(in fear): nehi nehi nehi..
Abhijeet: aare aa na baba.. kuch nehi hoga..
Abhijeet was pulling him.. and Daya was continuing his "nehi nehi".. but when they came near to that creature.. that escape from there..
Abhijeet: dekha.. tujhe dekhke darr gaya.. aur bhag gaya.. kaha tha na darpok hai.. isse koi darta hai bhala.. Abhijeet smiled.. and Daya got extremely happy..
it was really very interesting thing for him...
PRESENT:
Abhijeet: us hadse ke baad.. wohi pehela din tha.. jis din tune mujhe bhaiya kaha tha.. aur aaj wohi bhaiya tere liye dhokebaz ban gaya Daya.. (he smiled
sadly) par mere liye to tu wohi Daya hai.. mera bhai.. meri jindegi.. mera sab kuch... a tear drop rolled down from his eyes..
