PART-2(1)
DARK HOURS: The Faded Canvas
An entity coming out of the airport and inhaled fresh aroma of his city spreading smile on his lips feeling refreshed after 15 days...
He in smile booked a cab and directed the driver directly toward his workplace as he really want to surprise his colleagues his pal and want to see their priceless smiles due to his unexpected return...
He remembered his last night talk with his senior...
Sir wo Daya ko...
Senior: Haan Haan nhi btaunga (stressing) kisi ko bi...ok
He happily says ok sir thanks...
In around 45 minutes he reached in front of the building from which he was associated with past 20 years or say his whole life is invested here and after this long investment he had gained so much which he can't even count...respect/love/family/a lovely bro and above all AN IDENTITY which he almost lost in the line of his duty but now he can say that yes he is Abhijeet who has an identity...and that too just because of his friend/his partner/his bro...Daya
Few words danced in his mind:
Na jaane kese mukkamal hoti meri kori si slate
Jisko ateet ki syahi ne berang kr dia tha
Agr tu na hota Jo hr berang bejaan banjar shakl me
Khushi k rang bhrne ka fan jaanta Hai...
He smiled and jerked his head took his luggage and made his way toward the staircase...
He entered in the beaureu...
All faces lit up in joy...greetings showered on him while he received so many wishes of successful accomplishment of his mission...but he was searching only one face which come into his visibility as the person was coming from the record room viewing a file...
Abhi become happy seeing him and forward his hand in order to shake with him but to his shock the person passed him away and moved out of the beaureu main hall after putting phone on his ears creating an awkward situation for him who looked here and their while Freddy told him...important call hoga sir...
Abhi: Haan haan...(changing the topic) wese aaj kl Kya chl raha h beaureu mein thoda brief muje bi kro...he said while fetching his luggage...
Vivek giving him a glass of water rkh dia sir Maine rest room me...
Abhi nodded with a thanks while his mind travelled to that small incident happened few minutes ago while drinking water...
He saw his bro had seen him and immediately after seeing him remove his phone from pocket and called to someone...his face was not showing any layer of excitement of his early returning... he even not bother to wish a HI or pass a smile...
He put the glass on table,jerked his thoughts away and started taking brief on the ongoing cases...
Half an hour had already been passed but their was no sign of Daya...
Abhi was becoming more and more restless as his heart was engulfing in an unknown fear after seeing that blank eyes and straight face of his deary bro...
He dialed the number of Daya which he picked up after four five bells...
Before Abhi can speak anything he heard a straight voice from other side...Mai drive kr raha hu abi tumhe baad me krta hu...
Abhi: are pr ja Kaha raha Hai...but in return he heard a beep beep sound from other side...he keep looking at his phone for few seconds and then keep it aside... After few minutes his phone buzzed again giving a jerk to the owner who was lost in thoughts...Abhi picked the call after reading name of the caller...
Good morning sir
Acp sir: aa gye Abhijeet
Abhi: Haan sir aa gya,bus abi 1 ghante pehle...and their discussion moved on the matter on ongoing case in the mid of which Abhi heard few words escaping out of Vivek's mouth make him stunned..Vivek, just had joined them holding a file which was with Daya 1 hour earlier when he left the beaureu...
Abhi interups Acp sir in mid with sir Mai apko call krta hu...
He dropped the call and confronts Vivek as: Vivek Daya ne kb di tumhe ye file...
Vivek: sir abi abi ...keh rhe te informer se Milne Jana h...canteen me baithe te...mai coffee ka order dene gya ta...muje deka to ye file di or nikl gye...
Abhi hurriedly: kitni der hui is baat ko...
Vivek: sir abi 5 minute hue honge...
Abhi nodded come to his desk and slowly checked the time of calling Daya which was showing as 15 minutes ago...
Daya ne jhoot kyu bola...Kya wo milna nhi chahta mujse...(these words escaped from his mouth which he himself took back either curse him for thinking such non sense about his bro...
Daya returned back in lunch time and saw the beaureu empty...
Daya sighed in relief...and move toward his desk but his relief was very short lived as he saw Abhi coming out from the washroom side...
Daya stood up and was about to go when stopped by a voice Daya...
He can't ignore or avoid this urged voice no matter whatever the reason it may be but he can't just do this to him...
Daya turned with a smile while his eyes were counting tiles Haan Abhijeet ...
Abhi come forward and hugged him tightly Daya closed his eyes and hugged him back...
Abhi smiled as the whole fear just flew away in seconds after feeling the warmth of his only relation...
Here tears were flowing in speed from Daya's eyes as he was really in need of a shelter which can give him comfort in this complex situation where he was trapped in the cobweb of emotions...he was unable to decide what is right and what is wrong...he was unable to fight between all this and in this situation what could be better then the loving shell of his bro...he hugged him more tightly like hugging him for the last time...
Abhi become tensed realising the grip as he got the fact that his bro was crying badly now with voice and not ready to leave him...
Abhi tried once to depart and console him but his bro was not ready...he was just crying and crying...
Abhi now patting his back Kya hua Daya Haan Kya ho gya tujhe...dekh aa gya na Mai...aur wo bi time se pehle...tu...tu Rona band kr na yaar please...(softly)hey Daya...tu to Mera accha Wala Bhai h na...
Daya heard the last sentence and his eyes fired with rage...he left him harshly which shocked Abhi...Daya left the place without any further move...
Abhi was only able to see the swelled eyes,red face of his deary bro but what tore his heart into pieces was the reply of his bro NAHI...he realised that Daya replied to his query and declined that he is not his accha Wala brother or NOT HIS BROTHER...
Here Daya sit inside the qualis ignited it and the car moved in bullet speed...some voices are ranging inside ears of the driver...
*Daya tu rota kyu h...Tera Mitta h na...dekna kese khabar leta hu kl us Darshan ki...himmat kese hui mere Daya ko hath lgane ki*
...
...
...
Ta hua Daya...tu koon lo laha Hai*
Deth na Mittr...mitt...(frustrated as he was unable to took the difficult name of his friend so changed as) Mitta Nohan ne meli tuklet tha li(teary) bun(one) hi to mili tee...
Ane to lota koon h le meli Tha le...aaf aaf
...
...
...
Tu na Mera accha Wala Bhai nhi raha ab...
Aisa kyu keh raha h Mitta...ek tu hi to h Jo mujhe sbse bachata Hai...
Haan to tu humesha ye kyu kehta ki Tera koi nahi h...(teary)Mere bi to mummy Papa Mr gye na...pr mere pass to tu h na...Mera accha Wala Bhai
...
...
Tu to Mera accha Wala Bhai h na
...
...
Car stopped abruptly and owner shouted loud keeping hands on his ears...
Nahii...nahiii hun Mai kisi ka accha Wala Bhai Mai to bura hu...(crying loudly) nhi hun Mai kisi ka Bhai...na mere Mitta ka...or na mere Abhi ka...Mai to nafrat krta Aya hu na humesha se us se...fir Kya fark pdta h mujhe ki wo Jeet ab mera apna Abhi h...nhi accept kr paa raha na Mai...(rubbing his tears harshly) Mai bura hu...buht bura...and he put his head down on starring wheel which was absorbing his tears...
...
...
Whole day passed like this...Daya purposely move to crime scene without coming to beaureu to avoid any further awkward situation...
Duo Home:
Abhi was roaming to and fro in the hall as the clock was striking 11 PM but their was no sign of Daya...
He was even not attending his call which was making Abhi more and more tensed for him...
His mind was enveloped with the afternoon incident that hug and that teary but determined NAHI of his bro announcing a decline of his buddy to be his bro or to be his friend or to be his anything...
Abhi sat down on sofa holding his head...he again glanced at the clock and started in an angry tone: 11:30 bj rahe hn pr bhaisahab ka koi namonishan nhi h... smjh me nhi aa raha ho Kya gya h ise...are mujhse koi ranj h to btaye na akr muje...ajeeb hi behave kr raha h...jabse Mai wapas Aya hu sahab ki wohi murge ki ek taang dekh raha hu Mai...na kuch bolna h na saamna krna h...are Mai to yahan Tha bi nhi...fir aisa Kya kr dia Maine...
He again dialed Daya's number but the phone is now powered off...
Shaahh...aane do is larke ko aaj...acche se khabar lunga...
...
...
...
Door opened and a person entered inside the house...hall lights are still on and he saw his tired friend was sleeping on sofa in a haphazard manner...
Daya moved toward Abhi with slow steps and sat on knees in front of him hold his hand and silently some tear drops made their way down from his eyes...he rubbed them harshly from his face and lied Abhi comfortably on the sofa covered him with blanket and left the place after glancing at his face for one more time...
...
...
...
Abhi opened his eyes with some sound in kitchen...he woke up and saw himself wrapped in a blanket...he smiled and descend down from sofa...
Are Bhai Kya pak raha h subh subh...
Daya looked at him and said in a low tone omlet bna raha hu...tum jao fresh ho jao Mai ready krta hu...
Abhi moved toward him and placed hand on his shoulder Kya hua h Daya sab theek to h na...
Daya: hmmmmmmm
Abhi reminding tu Kahan ta kl maine kitna intezaar Kia maloom h...buht gussa bi Aya tujh pr...pr ab nhi hu...or tu phn kyu nhi utha raha Tha...
He got no response from latter's side really shocked him...
Abhi again placed hand on his shoulder and this time a tight grip and a little loud voice Daya Mai tujhse pooch raha hu tu bolta kyu nhi...again the silent attitude raise the anger bar of Abhi who turned Daya and now they are face to face Kya ho gya h Daya Mai kbse tujhe baat krne ki koshish kr rha hun or tu...
A loud voice cut him in mid:
To kyu kr rahe ho koshish tumhe smjh me nhi aa raha mai tumse baat nhi krna chahta...deko Abhijeet Mai tumse nhi behave krna chahta aise...please jesa chl raha h chlne do...or tum deko na Mai breakfast bna raha hu...muje kaam krne do please muje mjboor mut kro tumse aise behave krne k lie...he turned toward the pan and saw his omlet was burned...
He threw the serving spoon and said to Abhi lo ab bna lo khud hi or kha bi Lena meri mehnat ka to ho gya na satyanash...he moved out of the kitchen and closed his room door with a bang...
Abhi was shattered or say shattering day by day from his behaviour without even knowing his fault...
He was feeling so much anger on his pal that he just want to slap him hard and ask about his mistake...he want to ask that why r u showing ur care in one moment while threw me out of ur life at the next moment...
Abhi looked at the burnt omlet silently put it on his plate ate it as his stomach was really starving for food which he has not taken since last afternoon when he was waiting for his bro to took lunch with him...
Khata hui kya mujhse
Saja mili h jo ye
Teri khamosh ankhein keh rahin h jo
kya wohi Daga h ye
Keh k to dekh ek baar is chuppi se
To Zindagi tabah h ye
He jerked his thoughts aside wear his formals and left the home...
Daya slowly opened his room door...his eyes were swelled up clearly showing how much he cried...he move with baby steps toward the dining where a fresh omlet was waiting for him along with a glass of milk...
He drank the milk in one go stuff the omlet in his mouth...he was really cursing himself for acting so much harsh with his buddy but he can't help it out...he really don't want to act like this but everytime he try to act normal his childhood hatred come in front of him...he was feeling tired and helpless...
Days are passing in speed...
Abhi after that day never tried to ask anything from Daya and even don't talk much with him...
Daya also not burst out on him after that day...they only talk when they have to discuss something about case...
All are feeling that their is something fishy going among duo but they don't want to interrupt between them as they know their seniors will sort it all at their own end...
Today also Daya and Abhi were on airport to took information about the luggage of a suspect who was saying that his luggage was interchanged with some other person as CID has found arms in his his bag...
Both are returning back but stopped with a shout: Arey Abhijeet...
Abhi in smile: Sameer...hugging him kese ho Bhai aaj Mumbai mein...
Sameer: are bus kaam k silsile me aaya tha yahan ab to wapas Kolkata jaa raha hu...looking at his back side...are Daya wahan kyu khade ho yahan aao...
Daya come toward him in a small smile and shook hand with him...
They have light chit chats for few seconds after which Sameer said accha muje ab chlna hoga flight ka time ho raha h...wese Abhijeet aaj Daya buht shant h...
Daya looked at him while he added tumne jroor kuch kaha hoga use...
Daya cut him immediately nahi Sameer Boss ne kuch nhi kaha wo to bus thodi tabyt down h or phir itna kaam...(secretly) boss ki himmat h jo muje kuch kahe...and they both laughed while Abhi was only looking at Daya...
His heart was having pleasure of listening boss from Daya after around 10 days while his mind was confused with the changed attitude of Daya...
Sameer bid them bye and they both returned to Qualis...
Daya was silently driving the car while Abhi was looking outside from the window...
Due to a sudden jerk Abhi's head dashed with the window glass...
Abhiiii a small call came out from Daya's mouth...
Abhijeet looked at him and signal him that he is alright...
Daya pulled the seat belt and hand over to Abhi which he took silently and tie it around him...
A low voice initiated: Mai smjh nhi paa raha hun...logo k saamne tum mere Daya hone ka dawa krte ho, Ander hi Ander Meri fikr bi krte ho pr fir bi apne or mere beech ek aisi diwar khadi kr di h jiske baare me Mai kuch nhi janta...looking at him Kya h ye sab Daya...please muje btao muje jaan na h...
Daya looked at him with guilt in his eyes and instantly turned his face while Abhi was still waiting for his answer...
After few minutes of wait...Abhi shouted in irritation: Kya h ye sab yaar bta to muje share to kr...
Daya just keep his lips sealed while tears are falling from his eyes...car stopped in front of beaureu and Daya signaled Abhi to get down so that he can park the car...
Abhi dashed his hand hard on the Dashboard with Fir wohi khamoshi...fir wohi damn it...(really angry)bus kro ye sab ab ek baar me bta do muje...khtm kro kissa...and he moved out of the car in great anger...
...
...
...
...
After that day Abhi totally avoid to talk with Daya...he was taunting him on every place and was receiving back fires too which was hurting him to the core as his Daya never use to do so...
...
...
...
Daya return back to home late but today Abhi was not sleeping even he was not on his usual place that is the sofa of the lounge...
Daya was confused about this sudden vanish as that wait gives a sooth in his heart that still their is someone who care about him a lot no matter what happen among them...
Daya first peep inside Abhi's room but their was no sign of him so he move toward terrace but he saw his room door was slightly opened...his heart started bouncing fast while sweat droplets covered his forehead...he ran to his room and opened the door of the room but the harm was done till then...
Daya snatched the thing from Abhi while Abhi look at him straight in his eyes...and said to ye wajh h Daya...
Daya looked down and then agreed with him Haan Abhijeet yahi wajah h...
Abhi: I can't believe it...Daya bachpan ka hua ek accident h ye or muje to yaad bi nhi...
Daya: wahi to problem h tumhe kuch yaad nhi agr yaad hota to tum smjh paate ki kya khoya h Maine...tumhare paas to sb kuch Tha na parivaar accha school dost mere paas kuch nhi ta bus ek dost ta ek Bhai jo muje maa baap dono ka pyar deta Tha...or sirf tumari wajh se wo mujse door ho gya...(coming in front of him)kyu nhi aaye tum Haan( tears started falling from his eyes) waada Kia ta na tumne mujse tum aaoge doctor ko lekr...bach skta ta Mera Mitta pr tum nhi aaye...
Abhi was not understanding what to say how to convince him because he was unable to remind any part of that painful incident...
Somehow he tried: dek Daya mai wakai nhi janta Kya hua ta us waqt pr yaar Mai bi to baccha Tha na tb ho skta h na mere parents ne allow nhi Kia ho ya kuch aur ho skta h na...
Daya: Haan ho skta h islie Mai kisi trh se bi tumhe blame nhi kr skta kyuki Mai bi ye baat janta hu pr us nafrat ka Kya krun Haan...(looking into his eyes)Kya krun us nafrat ka Jo bachpan se Mai krta aya hu JEET se... haan aaj k (stressing) AbhiJEET se...
Abhi was shattered hearing such pinching tone of his buddy...he come toward him with baby steps tu...tu nafrat...(putting hand on his chest) mujhse nafrat krta h tu...
Daya was silent...he turned his face to other side...
Laut k aana mushkil hai
Pr aaj bi tu meri jaan mera dil hai
Harf keh kr mukar jana mushkil hai
Pr aaj bi Tu meri jaan Mera dil hai
Abhi moved away from him with mil gaya mujhe Mera jawab...tu mujse nafrat krta h...tu and he closed his room door and locked it from inside...
Waiting for the feedbacks of my all dear readers...:) Thanks a lot
