Friends here is the next chapter, have a happy reading… :))
CID Bureau…
Bureau Hall…
The cops were busy in doing their respective works when the Bureau landline rang, reporting a murder case and hence after informing ACP sir, the cops left towards the crime spot, led by Abhijeet…
ACP sir's cabin…
While inside the cabin, ACP sir exhaled a relaxed breath as he could clearly get the positive vibes from that new member of their team and hence was hopeful that Sachin would soon manage to become a member of their small and caring family too… Moving back on his chair, ACP sir smoothly rested his head on the headrest and was looking far away in space when the thought of his united family, slowly took him from the present to the past where…
CITY Hospital…
Abhijeet's Room…
Night was slowly spreading around, when ACP sir carefully opened his elder kid's room door, trying not to make any sound thinking his son must be asleep but was welcomed by…
Abhijeet's weak voice as: Sir…! (Unable to see clearly because of the room's lights off, repeated himself as…) Sir, aap hi hain na…?
ACP sir replied softly as: Jee bchchy, main hi hoon… (And moving forward without switching on the room's light, he sat beside Abhijeet's bed with…) Sorry yar late ho gaya, Bureau mein kaam kuchh zada tha…
Abhijeet nodded understandably with: Please sir, main samajhta hoon… (Added in composed tone as…) Pehly Daya ki kidnapping ka case, ab mujh py goli ka, phir sath mein regular cases bhi aaty rehty hain Bureau mein, easey mein workload tou bohut berh gaya ho ga aaj kal sb py… (Taking a momentary pause, tried as…) Iss liye main soch raha tha k main kal sy…
ACP sir knowing well what he was thinking cut him calmly with: Tum filhal kuchh mtt socho, hmm…? (Abhijeet tried to resist but ACP sir's glare stopped him from uttering anything who asked him while changing the topic as…) Khair tum yeh btao k ab tk jaag kyun rahy ho tum, gyaran bjj rahy hain… Mujhy tou lgga tha k soo gaye ho gy iss liye itni khamoshi sy aaya, aur phir tum ny room ki lights bhi off ker rakhi hain…?
Abhijeet nodded slightly with: Jee sir, lights achhi nahin lg rahi thien aur bahir sy light aa rahi hai thori bohut, tou bs, nurse sy keh k bnd kerwa dien lights…
ACP sir asked him in fatherly tone as: Aur nurse ko bhi bhaij dia tum ny…?
Abhijeet cleared his throat unnecessarily with: Woh mujhy lgga main soo jaon ga tou bs…
ACP sir called him like he knew his kid was lying with: Abhijeet…?! (Abhijeet kept quiet as a response as he had sent the nurse from there so he could not notice him awake and his father had caught that where ACP sir slightly shook his head disappointedly and asked him as…) Dinner kia tum ny…?
Abhijeet nodded slightly with: Jee sir, medicines laini thien tou ker lia dinner…
ACP sir nodded understandably with: Hmm good, achha kia… (And then asked him in a little confusion as…) Lekin ager tum medicines ly chuky ho tou ab tk jaag kaisy rahy ho…? Tumhari medicines mein tou sedative hai na…? (Seeing Abhijeet was reluctant to reply and was trying to hide his eyes, ACP sir asked him in strict-fatherly tone as…) Abhijeet, phir dimagh chalaya hai kya tum ny…?
Abhijeet trying to sound justified, replied as: Sir mujhy uss samey khud sy hi neend aa rahi thi tou main ny mnna ker dia unhien mujhy sedative dainy sy… (Completed in slow tone as…) Baad mein ptta nahin kyun neend aai hi nahin…
ACP sir, looking highly disappointed at him, shook his head with: Tum sach mein kabhi nahin sudhar sakty Abhijeet… (Abhijeet thought it better to keep silence, knowing very well the result of speaking anything at the moment while ACP sir added caringly as…) Khair main nurse ko kehta hoon k tumhien injection dy dien…
Abhijeet hurriedly stopped him with: Nahin sir please…
ACP sir tried again as: Abhijeet…!
But…
Abhijeet cut him again, almost pleadingly as: Nahin sir please, mujhy nahin soona please… (Tried to assure him as…) Main din mein soo gaya tha aap k jany k baad, sach, promise…
ACP sir just surrendered for now seeing his kid being stubborn at the moment and sighed with: Achha theek hai, nahin keh raha main nurse ko kuchh, khush ab…?
Abhijeet trying to hide his smile, nodded with: Thank you sir… (And then asked him caringly as…) Sir aap ny dinner kia…?
ACP sir nodded slightly with: Hmm, Bureau mein ker lia tha…
Abhijeet nodded in light smile and there remained around a minute's complete silence like both were struggling to decide either to give voice to the queries running in their minds or not, when finally…
Abhijeet softly clearing his throat, asked him in hope-filled-reluctance as: Sir woh… (Seeing ACP sir's gaze turning towards him, he added as…) Daya k barey mein kuchh ptta chala…?
ACP sir inhaling deeply slightly shook his head with: Koshish ker rahy hain baita, jald ptta chal jaye ga kuchh…
And he gave an encouraging pat on his elder kid's shoulder who had just inhaled a deep breath in silence…
After few moments' silence…
Abhijeet's quiet voice rose again as: Sir, Satya sy kuchh aur jankari nahin mil skki kya…? Ussy hosh nahin aaya kya ab tk…?
ACP sir trying to avoid the query had replied him as: Abhijeet tum iss samey iss sb k barey mein mtt socho bchchy, tum…
Abhijeet cut him restlessly with: Sir please… (Repeated himself in urging tone as…) Please…
ACP sir inhaling a deep breath smoothly secured his son's hand in his own and replied in care-filled-consoling tone as: Js raat tum mission k liye nikly thy, ussi raat Satya COMA mein chala gaya tha… (Abhijeet just inhaled deeply, closing his eyes in pain while he added in slow tone as…) Aur doo din baad woh, matlab uss ki…
And he could not complete but his son got it all what he was trying to say and hence was looking at him in pain filled shock where…
ACP sir consolingly pressed his hand with: Hum uss ka khoon zaya nahin jany dien gy Abhijeet, js ny bhi yeh sb kia hai, uss ko apny kiye ki szza zaror mily gi… (Repeated himself firmly as…) Zaror mily gi ussy szza… (Abhijeet with tightly pressed lips had closed his eyes looking deeply hurt while a silent drop quietly slipped from his eye's corner, getting absorbed in his hair… ACP sir, who even in the dim light of the room could clearly read the pain on his son's face, caringly rubbed that moisture off from his kid's face with…) Abhijeet, tumhien himmet kerni ho gi bchchy…
Abhijeet looked at him in real pain with: Sir woh sirf Daya ka aik informer hi nahin tha, humara dost tha, bohut achha insan tha, apny naam k jaisa schcha aur bohut bahadur, khatarnak sy khatarnak jagah py bhi kabhi peichhy nahin htta woh… (ACP sir had supportively pressed his shoulder still securing his hand in his other hand, when inhaling a deep breath while wiping his free hand on his face, he asked him in a rather composed tone as…) Sir uss ki body…?
ACP sir trying to comfort him, told him softly as: Uss ka hum ny antimsanskar ker dia hai baita, pury samman sy…
Abhijeet nodded slightly with: Thank you sir… (ACP sir gave him a fatherly smile when taking a small pause, he added holding fire inside him as…) Sir mujhy yahan sy discharge chahiye please…
ACP sir was shocked for a moment on that sudden statement but then understanding his anger and desire to be back in the field as soon as possible, tried to make him understand as: Abhijeet iss samey tumhara ghaow bohut tazza…
Abhijeet cut him in persistent tone as: Sir please, main iss hospital bed sy jaldi field py theek hoon ga, please sir…
ACP sir understanding well that he was not going to listen like that, inhaling deeply told him while making his voice firm with: Tumhien koe discharge nahin milly ga Abhijeet… (Seeing Abhijeet ready to protest, he raised his hand to stop him from saying anything with…) Bs, mujhy koe bahes nahin chahiye iss baat py, jb tk doctor chahien gy tumhien yahin rehna ho ga, samajh gaye tum…?
And in reply he got a big Phoola Hua Mun from his absolutely frustrated kid's side, who was now busy in cursing that sharpshooter in his mind, bringing hidden disappointed smile on his father's face who was clearly reading his facial expressions… Shaking his head disappointedly, ACP sir softly placed his hand on his elder kid's cheek who was looking away now after getting snubbed and denying his wish when…
ACP sir caringly turning his face towards him now, asked him softly as: Bohut zada ghussa aa raha hai kya…? (Still a silent grumpy look in reply hence ACP sir added while trying to make him understand in calm-fatherly tone as…) Abhijeet tumhary stitches bohut tazza hai baita, phir mission ki exertion, zehar lggi goli ka ghaow, itna blood loss, iss sb k baad ager tumhien lgta hai k tum mujhy kisi bhi tarhan agly hi din field work kerny k liye convince ker sakty ho tou I am sorry, lekin tum ghalat ho bchchy…
Abhijeet kept silence as deep down in his heart, he too knew that how much that rest was important for him and that his father was absolutely right but being the typical Abhijeet he wanted to use his brain's strength to convince his body that he could go back to work even if his body was telling him otherwise…
And then ending the topic there…
ACP sir smoothly freeing his still held hand, asked him as: Achha khair ab yeh bahes chhoro, mujhy tum sy kuchh aur important baat kerni hai… (And seeing Abhijeet's questioning gaze on himself, he added sounding serious as…) Dihan sy, soch k btao Abhijeet k tumhary kal raat wapis aany k barey mein koun koun janta tha…?
Abhijeet turning serious too, slightly shook his head with: Koe nahin sir…
ACP repeated himself with: Abhijeet, main ny kaha soch k btao baita, koe tou janta tha zaror warna uss sharpshooter ko kaisy ptta tha jo wahan tumhara intezar ker raha tha, kisi ny tou btaya na ussy…? (Presented his doubt as…) Tum ny jb HQ mein report kia tou wahan baat hue thi kya kisi sy koe…?
Abhijeet again shook with: Nahin sir, main HQ nahin gaya, main Mumbai mein hi tha… (Seeing confusion in the latter's eyes, he elaborated as…) Sir main ny DIG sir ko call ker k request ki thi k Daya ki kidnapping ki wajah sy main foren wapis join kerna chahta hoon tou ager woh allow ker dien tou main unn ki jagah aap ko report ker dun kyun k Delhi aany jany mein aik doo din aur lg jaty tou sir ny allow ker dia tha… Main ny unhien mission ki report soft copy mein mail ker di thi kal shaam hi, aur aaj subah hard copy aap ko submit kerwani thi…
ACP sir who was listening to him attentively till then, nodded thoughtfully with: Matlab DIG sir janty thy k tum kal raat wapis aa rahy ho…
Abhijeet nodded with: Jee sir… (And then striking something, asked him in a rather shocked tone as…) Sir aap DIG sir py shak ker rahy hain kya…?
ACP sir looked at him calmly with: Ager zarorat prry tou main khud py bhi shak ker sakta hoon Abhijeet… (Abhijeet kept quiet knowing it already while he asked him as…) Tumhara koe informer janta tha iss barey mein…?
Abhijeet after taking a moment to think nodded slightly with: Jee sir, mission py jany sy pehly tou teen char informers ko kaam py lgaya hua tha main ny, lekin mission k doran sirf aik informer tha mairy sath contact mein…
ACP sir asked him calmly as: Aur woh informer janta tha k tum kal raat wapis aa rahy ho…?
Abhijeet getting well what he meant tried to defend his informer as: Sir woh maira bohut bharosy ka informer hai…
ACP sir replied meaningfully as: Daya ka bhi bohut bharosy ka informer tha Ranga…
Abhijeet instantly protested as: Sir, Satya bhi tou uss ka informer hi tha…
ACP sir giving him a cold look took out his mobile with: Tumhary informer ka naam, number aur address, foren…
Abhijeet knowing well that he was running out of options there, obeyed him quietly by providing him the asked information where after sending that information to one of his very trusted informers, ACP sir dialed his informer telling him to trace that person's last whole week's activities and current location…
Ending his call with his informer…
ACP sir turned towards Abhijeet again with: Freddy btta raha tha k tum paidal thy, easa kyun…?
Abhijeet explained as: Sir woh main auto mein hi tha lekin auto thora peichhy puncture ho gaya achanak, aur main ny socha raasty mein koe auto mil gaya tou ly lun ga warna ghar tou paas mein hi tha tou main bs paidal chal prra…
ACP sir nodded with: Rickshaw ka number yaad hai, ya driver ka chehra…?
Abhijeet replied while thinking as: Sir andhera tha tou number py tou khas dihan nahin dia lekin rickshaw k ander light on thi tou driver ka chehra yaad hai achhy sy…
ACP sir nodded while telling him as: Subah sketch artist sy sketch bnwa daina uss ka, theek hai…?
Abhijeet nodded with: Sir… (And taking a moment, presented his confusion as…) Sir lekin rickshaw tou main ny yunhi sarak sy lia tha, randomly, tou mujhy nahin lgta uss ki iss sb mein koe involvement ho gi…
ACP sir replied softly as: Ho sakta hai Abhijeet k uss ki koe involvement na ho lekin shaid uss ny kuchh easa daikha ho jo humari iss case mein koe help ker skky, aur phir hum koe bhi aspect jany nahin dy sakty na…
Abhijeet nodded understandably with: Jee sir…
ACP sir asked him as: Achha Abhijeet, auto chhorny k taqriben kitni dair baad tum py goli chali ho gi, kuchh btta sakty ho kya…?
Abhijeet nodded with: Sir yehi koe doo sy teen minute, bs…
ACP sir nodded while asking as: Tum ny bhi goli chalai thi kya…?
Abhijeet nodded with: Jee sir lekin sirf aawaz kerny k liye kyun k aik tou hamla bohut achanak tha aur phir andhera bhi tha, main samajh nahin skka k goli exactly ks taraf sy chali thi… (Continued thoughtfully as…) Aur ab samajh aa rahi hai k goli lgty hi chakker kyun aany lggy thy mujhy, shaid zehar ka asar hony lggy tha foren aur phir mujhy andaza ho gaya tha k main zada dair hosh mein nahin reh paon ga iss liye doo teen bullets fire ki thein behosh hony sy pehly ta k ager koe aas-paas hai tou aawaz suun k wahan pohanch skky…
ACP sir lovingly weaved in his hair while praising him as: Tumhien wasey bilkul sahi brain of CID kehty hain Abhijeet, kaisi bhi situation ho, apny spontaneous response sy khud ki intelligence dikha hi daity ho tum hamesha… (Abhijeet smiled cutely with shyness on his face where ACP sir added caringly as…) Achha chalo bohut baatien ho gaien, baqi kal krien gy… (Softly placed his hand on his kid's eyes with…) Ab tum apni aankhien bnd ker lo aur soony ki koshish kro, bohut raat ho gae hai pehly hi… (Completed while trying to put whole burden on his doctor's shoulders with…) Aur phir ager subah Shubham ko ptta chal gaya na k tum itni raat tk jaagty rahy ho tou tumhary sath sath mairi bhi class ly ly ga woh, apny patients ko ly k woh sach mein bohut strict hai…
And that care-filled-warning resulted in deepening the smile on his elder kid's face who was lying there with closed eyes now, feeling like a toddler who was playing hide-and-seek with his father and was now standing in the middle of the room with closed eyes, being confident that his father won't be able to see him because he was standing with his eyes closed, childish, right…? But cute…
Abhijeet kept lying there with closed eyes while enjoying the affectionate touch of fingers softly weaving in his head now and in that, when did he fell asleep, he couldn't tell… When seeing him sleeping peacefully there now, ACP sir smiled satisfactorily and bowing over his face, placed a soft "Good Night" kiss on his forehead… Moving back, he leaned back on his chair while placing his legs on Abhijeet's bed and closed his eyes, soon drifting into alert sleep…
And the same moment the ringing mobile brought him back from his memory lane and after looking at the caller ID…
ACP sir composing himself attended the call with: Haan Abhijeet, sb theek hai wahan…?
Abhijeet nodded while replying as: Jee sir, kuchh major clues mily hain, main ny Sachin k sath team ko bhaij dia hai aur khud informer sy milny ka keh k ruuk gaya hoon peichhy… (Taking a momentary pause, added as…) Sir main ab ghar ja raha hoon, Daya uthny wala hai thori dair tk, main phir ghar sy seedha Bureau aa jaon ga…
ACP sir nodded understandably with: Hmm, theek hai baita, drive safe…
Abhijeet smiled lightly with: Thank you sir, aur sir please aap bhi lunch ker lijiye ga…
ACP sir smiled affectionately with: Hmm ker lun ga, tum yahan ki chinta chhoro aur ghar pohancho aaram sy, rakho ab call jaldi sy…
Abhijeet smiled lightly with: Jee sir, jaldi milty hain, bye…
ACP sir replied softly as: Bye…
And the call ended from both sides…
Placing the mobile aside, ACP sir looked at the wall clock of his cabin to find it 12:47 pm so grabbing the receiver, he dialed the canteen in-charge asking him to send his lunch in his cabin knowing well that it would be the first thing, his son would ask about once returned Bureau…
DUO's Home…
Where on the other side, soon Abhijeet parked his car outside their home and entered inside… Seeing Daya was still asleep, he left towards his own room and after taking quick shower and changing in casuals he returned in the lounge and lay down on the couch, taking some rest…
Lounge…
Seeing the younger one's room was empty now, getting relaxed, he placed the mobile near him on the couch and grabbing the TV remote, he switched on the TV and started watching a crime thriller to pass the time, allowing Daya to do some mental exercises once returned in the room…
Kitchen…
Nearly half an hour later, he switched off the TV after getting bored watching a predictable case and hence leaving towards the kitchen, he soon got busy in preparing some lunch for the two, sidewise keeping an eye on the younger one who had returned in the room now…
Soon getting freed from the kitchen, he prepared the tray and then left towards the younger one's room…
Daya's Room…
The moment Abhijeet entered in the room, closing the room door behind, for the first time was welcomed by a very frustrated Daya who was standing in the middle of the room and had just threw the magazine on the front wall… When feeling someone came in the room, Daya looked in his direction and travelling his gaze from the younger one's face to the magazine and then again at him…
Abhijeet said in a rather friendly tone as: Good throw…
Daya gave him a real burning look and jerking his head, had marched towards his usual sitting place while Abhijeet was standing there trying to hide his mischievous smile as after so long he had pulled younger one's leg and had really enjoyed it when…
Daya's straight toned voice reached his ears as: Tray rakh doo aur tum jao please…
Abhijeet stepped forward while saying in same friendly tone as: Hmm, mood kuchh zada hi kharab lg raha hai aaj tou tumhara… (While sitting at a little distance from him, asked him caringly as…) Kya hua hai, btao…? (Daya just turned his face away when Abhijeet shook his head disappointedly with…) Ager tum btao gy nahin kuchh tou main help kaisy kron ga tumhari, hmm…?
Daya told him in frustrated tone as: Mujhy nahin chahiye tumhari help… Tum bs jao bahir, mujhy akela rehna hai…
Abhijeet replied him softly as: Main tou chala jaon ga bahir aur tum akely bhi reh lo gy lekin uss sy tumhara ghussa shant ho ga kya…? (No response this time hence he tried to make him understand as…) Daya hum iss larai mein ekathy hain bchcha… (Daya looked towards him and he nodded to him as…) Iss liye hum dono ko hi aik dosry ki help kerni hai, samjhy…? (A silent stare as a response hence he tried once again as…) Btao ab mujhy kya hua hai, ks baat py itna chirry hoye ho tum…?
Daya finally replied him in helpless tone as: Mujhy yaad nahin aa raha kuchh, thora sa bhi nahin…
Abhijeet inhaling deeply, told him softly as: Aaj tou pehla din hai na Daya, abhi tou shuruvat hai bchcha, kabhi aik hi din mein saphalta mili hai kya kisi ko, hmm…?
Daya told him in stubborn-frustrated tone as: Lekin mujhy chahiye hai aik hi din mein saphalta, bs…
Abhijeet asked him politely as: Kyun, ks baat ki itni jaldi hai tumhien…?
Daya nodded firmly with: Jaldi hai, bohut jaldi hai… (Telling the reason, added in a little disappointed tone as…) Ager Abhi aa gaya tou main tou ussy pehchan bhi nahin sakon ga, woh kitni umeed ly k aaye ga k main ussy daikhty hi uss k glly lg jaon ga aur main-main ptta nahin kya kron ga… Ptta nahin kya beety gi mairy Abhi py, main…
Abhijeet finally cut him firmly with: Kuchh nahin beety gi uss py… (Daya turned his moist gaze towards him who nodded him firmly with…) Ussy tou iss baat ki khushi ho gi k uss ny tumhien dhond lia aur ab tum uss k paas surakshet raho gy… (Added in deep tone as…) Aur ager tum aaj ussy nahin bhi pehchan paa rahy tou kal pehchan lo gy, hai na…?
Daya in his helplessness couldn't get what the elder one had just said or indirectly told him and had just nodded to him quietly when…
Abhijeet changing the topic, taking out his own plate of sandwiches, forward the tray towards the younger one with: Khana kha la ab Daya, pehly hi thanda ho gaya hai…
Daya nodding to him pulled the tray towards himself when seeing him looking confused now…
Abhijeet asked him softly as: Kya hua Daya, kuchh kehna chah rahy ho…?
Daya nodded slightly while asking in little reluctance as: Medicines…?
Abhijeet understanding what he wanted to ask, replied him softly as: Medicines tumhien breakfast aur dinner k baad laini hain, yeh lunch time hai…
As after lunch time he was given only sedative which Abhijeet had thought to give him after mixing it in his milk glass like he always used to, though from today adding only half dose so that it would take some time for Daya to fall asleep and then he would give him sedative through injection when…
Daya trying to confirm, asked him as: Lunch k baad koe dawai nahin laini…?
Abhijeet was about to shook his head when thinking something, he slightly nodded as: Aik hai… (Seeing confusion rising in the latter's eyes, he added as…) Sedative hai woh… (Seeing Daya's face turning pale and he had instantly though unknowingly moved back, Abhijeet tried to relax him as…) Daya relax, nahin ly k aaya na main… (Tried to assure him as…) Ager tum nahin chaho gy tou main nahin laon ga, just relax…
Seeing Daya was spreading hand on his face wiping off the sweat drops…
Abhijeet asked him softly as: Daya pani pio bchcha, just relax…
Daya grabbing the glass, gulped down few sips still looking disturbed while…
Abhijeet tried to relax him with: Daya main ny kaha na baita, ager tum nahin chaho gy tou main nahin laon ga woh, promise… (Daya still unable to speak, had just nodded slightly while Abhijeet regretting of telling about sedative to him, tried to divert his mind with…) Daya chhoro yeh sb aur relax ho k lunch kro tum please…
Daya slightly shook his head while sliding the tray towards him with: Main ny nahin kerna, maira mnn nahin hai…
Abhijeet getting well now that Daya won't get convinced whatever he would say, hence thought of using another approach with him as: Daya daikho ager tum ny lunch nahin kia tou main bhi nahin kron ga… (Seeing Daya's gaze turning towards him, he added in same black-mailing tone as…) Aur mujhy sach mein bohut bhook lg rahi hai, sachchi…
A disappointed shade appeared on the younger one's eyes who had quietly pulled back the tray towards him, bringing satisfied hidden smile on the elder one's face and both brothers started taking their meal quietly…
After finishing his meal, Daya had quietly slid the tray towards the elder one who too had just taken the last bite and placing his plate in the tray, he was about to stand when…
Daya still not looking at the elder one, stopped him as: Woh sedative laina bohut zarori hai kya…? (Looked at the elder one who was already stopped and was now looking at him silently hence he added in slow tone as…) Matlab kyun zarori hai, uss k baghair main theek nahin hoon ga kya…?
Abhijeet inhaling deeply, nodded confidently as: Bilkul theek ho gy tum Daya, uss k baghair bhi theek ho gy tum… (Tried to make him understand in composed tone as…) Woh sirf iss liye hai ta k tum apny brain py zarorat sy zada pressure na doo… Jb tk tum jaagty raho gy kuchh na kuchh sochny ki koshish kerty raho gy aur kuchh yaad na aany py frustrate ho sakty ho jaisy thori dair pehly ho gaye, iss liye, iss sb ko avoid kerny k liye sedative hain, bs aur kuchh nahin…
Daya told him in helpless tone as: Mujhy nahin laini woh medicine…
A shadow passed Abhijeet's face but composing himself…
Abhijeet nodded him softly as: Theek hai mtt lo, main samajhta hoon, iss liye tou nahin laya na yahan aur tumhien btta bhi dia sb… (And taking a small pause, he added politely as…) Lekin Daya tum yahan bilkul surakshet ho… (Daya instantly hid his eyes seeing the latter had read his fear clearly while listening to the latter's comforting voice as…) Iss liye tumhien drrny ki zarorat nahin hai bilkul, jaisa tum chaho gy wohi ho ga, hmm…? (Listening only silence from the other side, Abhijeet grabbing the tray stood up with…) Main dodh ly k aata hoon tumhary liye…
And he headed towards the door when…
