Hello there! So yeah, it's having duo with a different emotion, complicated abhirika (don't kill me for this), ACP Abhijeet as always, and a complex relation between ACP and Daya.

And the rest is hidden for you to guess!

For everything to clear up a bit, you need to stay tuned and also.. starting chapters may instigate you to burn my review section but trust me it will get better once the book continues in a full fledged manner.

*Bashing's not taken!*

Btw, find me on insta gram as _. 3clipzed. af

{Without spaces obv}

And lemme get to know my readers a bit more :)


Chapter 1: Promise?

"Yeh filhaal toh possible nhi h!" A man said with a tone of finalisation dropping his hands in the air to show his helplessness.

"Aise kaise possible nhi h haan? Thori der ki baat h bs!" He tried his best to convince the man standing in front of him with a helpless look pasted on his face since last half hour.

"Yaar kesi baatein kr rhe ho tum? Tumse milna hi kitna mushkil h mere liye aur tum yeh kya nayi mushkil-" The man sighed as if wanted to drop the topic, "Mai toh yehi bolunga kuch din tum dono bilkul underground ho jao. Agar unke gang ko zara si bhi bhanak lagi toh.. tum jante ho voh kisi bhi had tak ja skte h!"

"Tum smjh nhi rhe ho Ritesh! Yeh.. yeh mera mission nhi tha yr! Mujhe jo information nikalne ke liye kaha gya tha voh mai already de chuka hu Headquarters ko. Ab yaha aur rehke kya mtlb hai? Bs ek mauke ki talash h mujhe.. voh mauka milte hi hum dono yaha se nikal jayenge!"

"Aur isme kitna khatra h yeh toh pta hi hoga tumhe?! Nahi?" Ritesh asked in concerned tone.

The man gave a nod after sighing, "Par koi aur rasta bhi toh nhi h na! Bs kisi tarah mera Sir se contact ho jaye aur mai yahan se nikl jau!"

"Theek h. Mai koshish krta hu kisi tarah tumhara contact krva du Acp sir se. Lekin isme time lagega yr!"

"Time!" He sighed sadly, "4 mahine ho gaye h yr already.. aur kitna time?"

"Mere hath mei bhi kahan h yr yeh sb."

The man turned his gaze away. Ritesh gave a pat on his shoulder and left into darkness. He stood there for sometime when smth suddenly clicked in his mind. He relieved a sigh and left with a new determination.

"Daya khana khalo!"

"Nhi mai theek hu.. tum kha lo!"

"Daya hq ka gussa khane pr nikalne se hum Mumbai nhi pohunch jayenge!"

"Toh aur kya kru mai haan?" He unknowingly was a little loud and rash, "Bht buri tarah iss trap mei phasgaye h hum. Phone tap ho rha h, puri state mei humara photo pohunch chuka h, hume pagalo ki tarah dhoondh rhe h yeh gang k log."

He paused when he realised his frustrated and tensed tone, "Chaar mahine ho gye h Tarika humei ese chhupe huye. Koi solid step toh lena hi padega na!"

She kept the glass of water aside, and sat besides him. She knew things weren't helping them anyway nor any other false hope would, but still she tried, "Lekin iss step mei bht risk h Daya. Tum apni life daav pr lga rhe ho, pta h na tumhe?"

Daya gave her another tensed look before nodding lightly, "pta h mujhe. Lekin iss tarah bhi problems badh hi rhi h tumhare liye!"

"Mere liye? Tum.. tum itna bada risk mere liye le rhe ho?" Tarika was taken aback by this. Though she agrees with the fact that She was His responsibility for the moment, but she wasn't that mean to risk his life for her safety!

Daya turned to face her in an attempt to make her understand, "Dekho bhale hi majboori mei.. lekin tum abhi meri jimmedari ho. Atleast tb tk, jb tk hum Mumbai nhi pohunch jate yah.." he added after a pause, "mai tumhe Mumbai nhi pohuncha deta."

"Koi aur rasta bhi hoga na. Yah.. yah phir hum kuch din aur yahi.."

"Nhi Tarika!" He spoke softly to make her understand the situation and to give her a little strength, "Kuch hi dino mai voh hume dhoond nikal lenge. Aur tum.. itna dar kyu rhi ho? Maine bht soch smjhke kl ka din chuna h. Kuch nhi hoga mujhe!" He nodded lightly asking her confirmation, "hmm?"

"Theek h.. mai ready rahungi shaam ko! Bs tum.. tum apna dyaan rkhna please!"

"Lekin ek.." He looked deep in her eyes asking for something, "Promise kro mujhe ki tum.." Tarika was about to interrupt but he cut her strictly, "Tum Mera intezaar nhi karogi! Promise me!"

She had small drops of tears glistening* in the corner of her eyes. Her heavy throat stopped her to revert back as she nodded lightly, surrendering in front of her emotions.

What if he didn't return tomorrow? What if she didn't keep his promise? What if things didn't work as planned? There were thousand questions rolling down her cheeks but one question haunted her like nothing else, "If anything happens to him, will I be able to forgive myself ever?"


A/N:- Calm down y'all! ;)

A new bond (a complicated one) cz you know I love experiments!

And also, spread no hate as I won't tolerate it. I love all the characters of my book as my own friends and family.

Have a nice day!
