THE STORY:

A loud horn made Daya back from his thoughts.. yes he was thinking.. he imagined the situation after he would meet Abhijeet..

Daya looked back to the source of the car..

Driver: aare bhai.. signal khula hua hai.. chalo yaar.. kyu khare ho?

Daya: aa.. haa.. haa.. and he started the car again...

he smiled..

Daya: naraz to honge bhaiya.. par phir bhi.. (confidently) bhai hu mia unka.. woh jaroor man jayenge.. unhe pata jo hai ki unka Daya thorasa.. nehi nehi.. pura

ka pura pagal hai.. to woh man jayenge..

mere bhaiya dunia ki best bhaiya hai.. unhone sab kuch jante hue bhi mujhse itna payar kia.. aur mai.. maine kya kia.. jabhhi sach ka pata chala.. sab kuch

bhulke.. sara payar bhulke.. jo muh mei aaya bol dia bhaiya ko.. kitna bulaya unhone mujhe.. darwaza khola maine.. (teary tone) bohhot galat kia maine..

bohot..

par aab sab thik ho jayega.. chachu bhi bole na.. haa.. pata hai mujhe bhi ki bhaiya mujhe dekhte hi.. nehi dekhte hi nehi.. par jaroor gale laga lenge..

HE REACHED HOME..

he looked at the home. and took a deep breath.. he came out from the car aftyer parking it.. and started coming towards the door with closed eyes..

Daya: hey bhagwan raksha karna...

he pressed the door bell.. still with the closed eyes.. now it was closed tightly..

he heard no door opening sound.. so he again pressed the bell.. but this time he heard a sound from behind..

"aare Daya tum.."

Daya opened his eyes.. and looked back..

Daya smiled and went to that man..

Daya: haa.. Anik.. mai wo..

Anik: aare par tum.. bell kyu baja rehe ho? kholega kaun darwza? ghar mei to koi bhi nehi hai..

Daya looked at the door.. it was locked from outside..

Daya: wo bhaiya..

Anik: Abhijeet bhai to nehi aaye hai..

Daya: aaj.. aaj subha.. bhaiya.. nehi aaye hai yaha pe?

Anik: nehi..

Daya: tumhe kaise pata ki wo nehi aaye hai?

Anik: woh aate to mujhe jaroor dikhai deta.. mai yahi.. garden mei hi hu... ek naya painting bana raha hu.. wo dekho canvas.. he pointed towards it..

Daya: par tum to painting kar rehe the na.. bhaiya aate to tumhe pata kaise chalta? tumhara concentration...

Daya: kya Daya tum bhi.. mai painting kar raha hu.. aur Abhijeet bhai ek bar bhi mere pas aake mujhe apriciate nehi karenge.. aisa kabhi hota hai kya?

Daya(in low tone): par aab to Bhaiya khud hi thik nehi hai..

Anik: kya?

Daya: nehi kuch nehi..

he went from there.. he started dialing Abhijeet's number.. but it was coming switched off..

Daya: bhaiya phone ko kyu band karke rakh diya.. offo.. aab mai kaha dhundu?

he asked some people of surrounding if they had seen Abhijeet.. all answered in negative..

Daya: sayed ghar ka saman kharidne geye honge.. he went to the shop from where they used to buy grocery..

but from there he got to know that Abhijeet didn't come..

now Daya was really very tensed..

Daya: kahi bhaiya.. kahi chale to nehi...

"Abhijeet jana chahta hai yaha se"..

nehi nehi.. aisa nehi ho sakta.. bhaiya mujhe aisa chodke kaise... nehi.. aab bas ek hi jaga bacha hai.. waha nehi mile

bhaiya to... he closed his eyes in tension.. he shook his head and.. drove off...

he came to the beach.. morning beach was also very crowded.. some were visitors from outside.. some were visitors from there.. but Daya was just in search of

his bhaiya..

suddenly he heard a noise.. and turned to that source.. and seeing the incident.. he started running..

Man: aare bhai.. dikhta nehi hai kya?

the matter was that one man collided with a ice cream vendor.. and fell down.. Yes.. it was the man whom Daya was searching for.. Abhijeet..

Abhijeet got up..

Man: aare Abhijeet shahb.. maaf kar dijiye hume..

Abhijeet: nehi nehi.. thik hai..

Man: par shab aapke sar se khoon nikal raha hai.. is pathhar se takrane par..

Abhijeet: wo kuch nehi hai.. tum.. tum jao.. saying that he started moving..

Daya came behind him.. calling.. "bhiaya..".. but Abhijeet didn't stop.. and moved forward.. Daya came.. and put his hand on his shoulder..

Daya: bhaiya aapko kab se bula raha hu.. aap jawab kyu nehi de rehe ho? dekh bhi nehi rehe ho meri taraf..

Abhijeet looked at him strangely..

Abhijeet: tum mujhe bula rehe the?

Daya took back his hand and looked down.. he was afraid of those blank eyes..

Abhijeet: sorry mai samjha nehi.. he went ahead..

"Daya.. tujhe na mujhe bulane ki jaroorat nehi paregi.. bas ek bar dil se yaad kar lena.. bhaiya tere pas hazir ho jayenge.. "

Daya sat beside him.. he didn't answer this question.. he took out his hanky..

Daya: idher dekhiye.. he turned his face toward himself.. itna khoon beh raha hai.. (he started cleaning that wound...) aur aap...

Abhijeet(smiled): haa.. bas itna hi khoon beh raha hai.. pura beh jata na.. to achha hota.. he again turned his face to the opposite side..

Daya was shocked..

Daya: aa.. aap ghar chaliye bhaiya..

Abhijeet: kaunsa ghar?

Daya's heart pinched.. and he was so scared at Abhijeet's behavior..

Daya:(he again turned Abhijeet's face towards him) humare ghar bhaiya.. jaha pe aap aur aapke bhai Daya.. ek sath rehete the.. wo ghar..

Abhijeet(in dreamy tone): wo ghar aab sirf ek maukan hai.. ghar to wo hota hai na jaha sab aapne jan mil jhul ke rehete hai.. to phir wo

maukan aab ghar kaise hoga? wo to tut chuka hai..

Daya(teary tone): bhaiya please.. aisa mat bolo.. hum phirse banayenge na.. humara ghar.. aap aur aapka bhai.. phirse banayenge use ghar..

Abhijeet: bhai! mera is duniya mei koi nehi hai.. ek maa thi bas.. (in teary tone) wo bhi chali gayi.. bas mai akela ho gaya.. aur koi nehi hai mera.. nehi.. ek tha

pata hai.. par aab woh bhi nehi.. nehi hai.. aab na woh mujhse nafrat karta hoga sayed.. maine use kitna bulaya.. par wo mere pas aaya hi nehi..

Daya started crying without any sound.. he held Abhijeet's hand tightly..

Daya: aisa mat bolo na bhaiya.. kya ho gaya hai aapko? mai Daya.. aapka Daya.. dekho.. aapke bhai aapke pas laut aaya hai.. he jerked him.. bhaiya.. aap sun

rehe ho na?

but Abhijeet did not answer.. Daya wiped off his tears and held Abhijeet from his shoulder.. Abhijeet looked at him in confusion..

Daya: chaliye bhaiya.. ghar chaliye.. uthiye.. he almost forcefully made him stand up.. and came to the car..

Abhijeet was totally silent.. just rested his head on the head rest.. and closed his eyes.. it was like.. he did not want to know what was going on surrounding

him.. Daya was sobbing.. wiping his tears.. driving.. and keeping eyes on Abhijeet..

they reached home.. Daya descended down.. and came to Abhijeet's side.. opened the door.. and put his hand on Abhijeet's cheek..

Daya: bhaiya..

Abhijeet fell on Daya' s chest.. he was unconscious..

Daya(panicked): bh.. bhaiya... he patted his cheek.. bhaiya.. kya ho gaya aapko? aap aankhe kholiye na.. bhaiya please.. bhaiya..

he looked around.. but no one was there.. to help them..

Daya made Abhijeet sit properly.. and closed the door.. he took the spare key from their secret place and opened the house main door..

then he came to Abhijeet.. and took him in his hand.. and went inside.. he laid him on the sofa.. and went to the kitchen to fetch water.. opened the fridge to

take out a bottle..

Daya: par ismei pani to bohot doin purana ho gaya hai..

so he kept that there.. and came outside running to take a bottle from the car.. and simultaneously.. he took out his mobile.. and dialed Salunkhe sir's number..

he took the bottle.. and came inside.. he started sprinkle water on Abhijeet's face..

Here Salunkhe sir attend the call happily..

Salunkhe sir: haa re mee dushman.. bol..

Daya(scared): chachu aap jaldi se humare ghar aa jao..

Salunkhe sir(tensed): kyu kya hua?

Daya(in teary tone): wo bhaiya.. behosh.. mai.. gari mei... bhaiya beach mei...

Salunlkhe sir: ok.. ok.. kuch bolne ki jaroorat nehi hai.. ami abhi aaya.. tum ek kam karo.. pani ke chite maro..

Daya: bhaiya nehi uth rehe hai chahu...

Salunkhe sir: god!.. ok I'm coming.. he disconnected the call..

Daya was engaged in calling his bhaiya..

Daya(crying): bhaiya aap uthte kyu nehi hai.. dekhiye na.. itne din baad aapka bhai aapk pas aaya.. aur aap aise aankhe band karke so rehe ho? this is very

bad bhaiya.. bhaiya..

he took him on his hand.. and went to Abhijeet's room.. and laid him down.. he sat beside him on the floor..

Daya: bas abhi aapka doctor shahb aa jayenge.. aur aapko dawai denge.. aur aap jhat se thik ho jayenge.. aur thik to aapko hona hi hai na.. nehi to mujhe

sambhalega kaun ha?

he noticed their photograph.. it was ffallen down.. and the glass was broke.. Daya took it up..

Daya: dekhiye bhaiya.. yeh tut gaya hai.. iska kanch tut gayi hai.. is kanch ko to hum jor nehi sakte.. par ek naya wala laga to sakte hai na...

"jaroor laga sakte ho".. he looked back.. it was Salunkhe sir..

Daya: chachu.. he stood up.. dekhiye na bhaiya ko kya ho gaya hai..

Salunkhe sir: haa mai dekhta hu.. he started examining Abhijeet.. tum bilkul tension mat lo..

he checked Abhijeet..

Daya: chachu.. bhaiya..

Salunkhe sir(put his hand on his shoulder): beta.. extreme depression se hua hai yeh..

tear rolle down fron Daya's eyes.. he hang his head down..

Salunkhe sir: ro nehi Daya.. bhagwan ka sukhriya.. ki tum thik samay pe aapna faisla badal dia.. aur aageye Abhijeet ke pas wapas.. nehi to.. (he sighed)

sayed aur bhi bura ho sakta tha..

Daya(hurriedly): nehi..

Salunkhe sir(consoling): nehi.. nehi aab kuch bhi.. aab tum jo ho.. sab sambhal loge.. aur mujhe to lagta hai Abhijeet ka behosh hone ka karan yeh bhi ho sakta

hai ki yeh accept kar raha hai ki tum uske pas firse uske bhai ban kar aageye ho.. (looking at sleeping Abhijeet) hai na beta? nehi to sayed khud ko strong

dikhane ki chakkar mei... acting achha kar leta hai na tumhara bhai..

Daya: chachu.. bhaiya ma mujhe .. mujhe pehechan nehi rehe hai..

Salukhe sir: Daya.. woh bohot takleef mei hai.. uske man mei yeh baith gaya hai ki uslka bhai usse dur ho gaya hai.. bas usike waja se yeh sab ho raha hai..

(angry on himself) hume pata tak nehi chala ki yeh itna depression mei hai..

Daya: bhaiya ko...

Salunkhe sir: ek do ghante sone do.. aur soyega bhi yeh.. ghar mei to kuch nehi hai.. hai kya?

Daya nodded in no..

Salunkhe sir: mai bahar se lunch ka kuch healthy khana order kar deta hu.. kha lena.. aur use bhi khila dena.. thik hai?

Daya nodded in yes..

Salunkhe sir: jao.. tum bhi fresh ho jao.. jao..

Daya did not move.. only stared at Abhijeet's face..

Salunkhe sir(orderly tone): Daya.. go.. Daya looked at him.. and went out..
