A/N: First of all thanks for your reviews…Look guys, I know it was hurting…even my hands were trembling while writing…yes,I agree its hard to believe..but then, CID is a crime thriller..remember…..Abb aise stories me suspense nahi hoga to aur kaha hoga…aur isme mai kya karu ki meri story ke jaise on screen bhi dono lar pade. However that was a plan between duo and my story is totally different from what u saw on tv. And a warning…jaisa shock aap logo ko first chapter me laga waisa aage bhi lagte rahenge… 'so be prepared' as Abhijeet sir always says…. J and now, the next update…
HAVE A HAPPY READING….
A minute or two after Daya moved out of Abhijeet's home, the whole CID team approached there. The door looked to be closed. So ACP sir rang the bell…but no one came…rang it again…no reply…he then knocked the door…
ACP(knocking the door): Abh..….(as he knocked the door, it got open) ye kya darwaza khula hua hai….(and they all enter inside. And what they saw before them took the soul out of them. Abhijeet was lying on the floor unconscious. He was bleeding profusely…the yellow carpet was almost red now…his head was bleeding as well. His left hand was in an abnormal position which seem like he was trying to hold someone….seeing Abhijeet like that they were so shocked that they were unable to react upon it for a few second. It was only when Freddy screamed )
Freddy(screamed his name): ABHIJEEEEETTTT SIRRRRR…..(and he ran toward him.)
Seeing him everyone else came into reality and all of them came forward…Everybody had tears in their eyes….Freddy was continuously patting his cheeks and trying to get him in conscious stage but of no use…like Abhijeet didn't want to open his eyes…didn't want to see anyone…didn't want to…to….
ACP sir asked Rajat to call ambulance. Rajat went away to make that call and ACP sir came forward and carefully lifted his head and placed it on his lap….he touched his cheeks with his trembling hands…then took out his handkerchief from his pocket and pressed it tightly against the bullet wounds…trying his best to save his son who was right now not responding to anyone….just resting his head on his father's lap with closed eyes. ACP turned towards Rajat to ask something but at this moment his throat was not supporting him to produce any voice except the meek snuffing voice due to crying…yes, he was crying…silently…..Rajat understood that he was asking about ambulance..He came forward and sat next to him on his knees and kept his hand on his shoulder and said in a low,understanding but assuring voice, "Sir ambulance abhi aati hi hogi…Abhijeet sir ko kuch nahi hoga…" ACP looked at him and Rajat slightly nodded his head which was really assuring for hhim for that time….
After sometime, they heard the ambulance approaching…two people came out of the ambulance holding a streacher…Rajat ran outside to guide them to the spot….They came hurriedly and kept the streacher aside and moved towards Abhijeet who was still on ACP's lap…One of them held Abhi's upper body while the other held his legs and shifted him on the streacher in one go….
ACP(panicked): Sambhal ke…
The two looked at him and one of them said while picking up the streacher, now on which Abhi was lying., "Sir hum roz aise kai logo ko uthake hospital pahuchate hai...hum sahi se hi uthaenge…" (ACP sir didn't say anything, just looked at them and then at Abhijeet's face. Rajat asked the boys to move and they moved towards the ambulance. He then asked others to take his car in which they came there and gave him its keys…when all left, he came to ACP and slowly called him)" Sir….." (ACP who was looking at the floor where they found Abhijeet now looked at Rajat whose eyes were showing the same pain for his senior but at the same time showing pure concern of a son towards him.)
Rajat(with concern): Sir, chaliye…Abhijeet sir ko abhi aapki zarurat hai…chaliye please….
ACP looked at him and nodded his head in yes and said in a very low voice, " Hmm..chalo…"
They moved outside the home and Rajat sealed the home. Then he moved towards the ambulance and sat inside it and they headed towards hospital….he looked at ACP who was looking at Abhi and his one hand was on Abhi's forehead…
ACP(still looking at Abhi and patting his forhead slowly): Rajat….(called him in his weak voice)
Rajat(quickly responded): Yes sir…(he was happy that at last ACP sir spoke something.)
ACP(moved his head up to look at Rajat): Rajat wo….wo Daya….(and again he looked down thinking how will he face him when he will come to know about his friend)
Rajat understanding the situation and his state of mind: Sir…maine Daya sir ko call kiya tha….(ACP look at him)..wo jab mai ambulance ko call kar raha tha tabhi unhe bhi call kar diya tha…maine unse kaha ki jald se jald city hospital pahuch jaye…wo(observing ACP) wo aa jayenge sir…(ACP sir only nodded a bit and after that complete silence prevailed in the atmosphere….only the loud voice of ambulance's siren could be heard from inside the ambulance…)
After sometime, they reached the hospital…they had already informed the doctor on emergency duty.. The ward boys hurridly moved him inside hospital. At reception, doctor was waiting for them to come. As soon as they entered, doctor checked his pulses, and asked the ward boys to immediately move to operation theatre. ACP sir was holding Abhi's hand till he was taken inside the OT. Doctor also moved inside and Abhi disappeared from their sight as the door closed…After a minute the red bulb on the door was switched on which indicated that operation has started…ACP moved back to sit on a nearby bench when he saw Daya coming towards them…he was breathing heavily and was very panicked…As he reached there, he ignored all others and directly moved to ACP sir...
Daya(too much panicked): Sir…sir…Abh…Abhijeet….wo kaisa hai sir…theek hai na…sir…kya hua…
ACP was expecting this…Daya and Abhijeet always gets panicked for each other…but still he managed to say…
ACP: Daya…Abhijeet ko goli lagi hai…chest par…doctor ne dekha hai use…abhi operation chal raha hai…uske baad hi kuch kah sakte hai…
Daya was completely in tears…: sir kaise…kaise hua ye sab…?Abhi kaha mila aapko..?
ACP: Hum sab jab uske ghar gaye to darwaza khula hua tha…andar gaye to….to yeh…(he chocked and sat on a nearby bench…Daya sat beside him and covered his face with hands…)
After some hours of restlessness…fear…worriedness…silence….the doctor came out of the OT…All saw him and moved towards him to know about their dear Abhi….Daya was standing behind everyone and ACP sir asked the question…
ACP(very worried): Doctor…kaisa hai Abhijeet…sab theek hai na…
Doctor: Dekhiye…unhe do goliya lagi thi(Daya was shocked and confused on hearing this..) Dono goliya unke chest par he lagi hai…unme se ek se to unhe koi khatra nahi hai par doosra…doosri goli unke dil ke kafi kareeb lagi hai…mujhe usi ka darr hai…jab tak unhe hosh nahi aa jata tab tak hume ye nahi pata chalega ki wo kaise respond karte hai…in short, is waqt sabse pehle unka hosh me aana bahut zaroori hai….agar who teen ghanto ke andar andar hosh me nahi aate to baat bigar sakti hai…(in low tone)..matlab…wo coma me bhi ja sakte hai…
ACP (shocked): KYA…? Doctor saab ye aap kya keh rahe hai…Abhijeet…wo…aise kaise…please aap kuch kijiye na…
Doctor: dekhiye ACP saab..mai samajhta hu aapki halat…but humne apni taraf se poori koshish bhi ki aur operation thik bhi tha…par ye bhi utna hi sach hai ki unke hosh me na ane se kuch bhi ho sakta hai…unhe abhi ICU me shift kiya ja raha hai phir aap log unse mil sakte hai…(saying this he left from there)
ACP and all others were standing there like statue but all of them had tears in their eyes…everyone was hoping the same thing…that nothing should happen to their Abhijeet sir….ACP suddenly realised something and looked back at the corridor…Daya wasn't there…he asked others but nobody knew when he moved from there…
Freddy: Sir… Daya sir shayad doctor ki baat sunkar pareshan ho gaye honge…shayad bahar gaye ho…mai…mai abhi dekhkar aata hu…(he was about to move outside but stopped with a sudden voice)
ACP: Nahi Freddy..tum ruko yahi par..mai dekhta hu Daya ko…(and he moved from there)
ACP moved out of the building and came to hospital lawn…he was quite sure he would find Daya there…and yes..he did…..Daya was sitting alone on a bench placed at one corner of the lawn…much light wasn't reaching there…ACP went towards him and stood beside him…Daya was doing something with his mobile…he was facing down due to which ACP couldn't see his face…
ACP(called him softly):Daya….(Daya was shocked and he stood up in jerk in which his mobile fell down…ACP picked up his mobile and saw what he was doing…a message was open…he read it, "yaar daya jaldi aa na..kab se wait kar raha hut tera…abb baki shopping baad me kar lena..bas abb tu ghar aa ja…" ACP felt bad…it was the last message in his inbox..means the last message from Abhi before this incident…ACP again had tears in his eyes afer reading this…he looked up but saw that Daya was standing at some distance facing to opposite side…ACP went to him and called him but got no response…he carefully looked at Daya…He was standing still..no movement in his body..just standing like a statue…his fists were held tight….ACP thought it was normal when his friend was in such a situation…but he thought he can handle him…so he moved and stood in front him so that he can face him…but he was absolutely shocked to see his face…Daya was not having any tear in his eyes..indeed, he was not having any expression on his face…his eyes were unreadable….he was looking like a stone….no, it wasn't the Daya whom he knew…certainly not…Abhi's friend, Daya used to be the most sensitive person when it came to his buddy…but here, a completely different Daya was standing…)
ACP(shocked still concerned): Dayaaaa….kya hua ha…tum theek ho..?
Daya(in tough voice): Ye sab meri wajah se hua hai….agar maine tab theek se…..(suddenly realising what he was going to speak, turned opposite to ACP and changed his sentence as..)..theek se mobile rakha hota aur wo message pad leta to..to aaj ye sab nahi hota…(Daya was now worried of what he was going to say in front of ACP…)
Daya(thinking): Kya kar raha tha mai..sach bolne wala tha…Agar thori aur der yaha ruka to kahi waqai me sach na bol du…filhal sabke saamne chup rehna hi behtar hai….kahi inhe koi shak na ho jaye mujh par…iss baar to bach gaye par aage se dhyan rakhna parega…aur sahi mauka milte hi ….(his thoughts came to end with ACP sir calling him)
ACP: Daya mujhe lagta hai tumhe aaram ki zaroorat hai…ghar jakar aaram kar lo…
Daya: Sir aisi halat me mai aaram kaise kar sakta hu…sir ek request hai…
ACP: Kya?
Daya: Sir aaj raat mai ruk jau Abhijeet ke paas….please sir….
ACP : theek hai Daya…ruk jao…par dhyan rakhna Abhi ka…aur apna bhi…Par filhal ander chalo sab intezaar kar rahe hai humara…(and they move inside…after that Daya was completely silent…speaking to nobody…just sitting beside Abhijeet holding his hand tightly…he was in his own thoughts…was not at all caring about anything else…sometimes he moved his head up but just to look at Abhi's face which was looking too dull…and again he wound look down and gazed continuously at Abhi's hand which he was holding…The whole team and especially ACP was now worried for both his officers…everybody thought that Daya went silent because of Abhi's condition..he thought himself to be the reason of all this…..but..is that the true reason behind Daya's weird behaviour..?)
A/N: Confused? No problem…keep guessing…..2-3 chapters ke baad shayad kuch clear ho jaye…
