DUO's Home…
Kitchen…
Next day's morning had already announced itself and in DUO's home, the only resident who was awake to welcome the new morning was Abhijeet who could be seen busy in cooking tea for himself while sidewise boiling the milk…
Terrace…
Soon after getting freed from the kitchen, Abhijeet left towards the terrace grabbing his teacup in one hand and his mobile and the newspaper in the other…
Sitting on the cane chair present there while sidewise placing his mobile on the cane-table, he soon got busy in reading the newspaper while enjoying his cup of steaming hot tea…
Soon finishing reading the newspaper, Abhijeet folding the newspaper, placed it beside the already placed empty teacup and grabbed his mobile to find the younger one was still asleep… So he checked the time to find it was 06:43 am meant there was still some time before he would wake up and as he had already placed Daya's clothes and other necessary things in his bathroom, so was relaxed from that side…
And knowing he still had an hour or two on his hand to kill before returning into the kitchen to prepare breakfast, Abhijeet smoothly rested his head on the headrest while placing his legs on the chair placed besides his' and slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the soft breeze around…
When the silence spread in the home and the hope for a better, happy and healthy tomorrow, slowly took him from the present towards that uncertain past, when things were not looking as smooth as they were now… The time when he could see only pain and hopelessness in the eyes of those who were his family… The time when they had realized what that evil named Shastri had done to his brother… The time where…
CITY Hospital…
ICU Area…
Daya's Room…
Abhijeet could be seen sitting with his brother while securely grabbing his hand in his own, and rubbing his free hand in the younger one's head… He was just quietly staring at the pale, tired and exhausted face of his brother, which was having deep dark circles around his eyes and the cheek-bones of his face were quite prominent now because of him losing much weight…
Abhijeet was having no idea how many moments, seconds, minutes or hours had passed since he was sitting there like that in complete silence, engulfed in his pain and hurt, thinking about nothing when an affectionate hand on his head brought him back from his aching world of despair and anguish and wiping off the moisture from his eyes, he slowly stood up, turning towards the person to find ACP sir standing there, with the team also present in the room now…
ACP sir knowing, he could say nothing to comfort him at the moment just gave him an encouraging look, receiving a silent-assuring nod in return and finally breaking the silence spread in the room…
ACP sir initiated in composed tone as: Abhijeet mujhy lagta hai for the safe side humien apni tassali k liye aik baar Daya ko puri tarhan sy scan ker laina chahiye…
Abhijeet, who had already noticed the body scanner in Freddy's hand, nodded quietly with: Jee sir…
And turning his gaze towards Freddy, he nodded him in same silence and getting his meaning, Freddy nodding him back stepped forward and the two scanned Daya thoroughly for any trackers, though they already knew that chances of it to happen were quite low now as Shastri had already done what he wanted to, still they wanted to be hundred percent sure and soon…
Freddy glancing over Abhijeet to find him busy in lying Daya comfortably now, turned towards ACP sir with: Sir koe tracker nahin hai sir ki body mein…
Abhijeet turning towards ACP sir, added quietly as: Lekin iss ki grrdn k peichhy aik cut ka nishan hai, shaid tracker wahin tha jo ab nikaal lia gaya hai…
ACP sir, inhaling deeply nodded him in silence and then turned towards junior TRIO told them in composed tone as: Tum teeno ab Bureau jao… (Seeing they were ready to protest, ACP sir turning into ACP's mode, cut them before they could even start with…) Noo bjjny waly hain, hum sb iss tarhan Bureau sy ghayeb nahin ho sakty, koe case aa sakta hai, purany cases ka fil work hai… Tum log jao Bureau, main bhi ghanty tk aa raha hoon…
Freddy, thinking for a moment, tried another approach with: Sir lekin main tou kal Abhijeet sir k sath raid py tha na Thane, tou uss hisab sy tou maira aaj off hua tou main tou na jaon na phir…?
ACP sir was internally smiling in sadness-filled-disappointment seeing his effort to somehow stay in the hospital, managed seriousness outside with: Fredricks…!
Freddy hung his head down, very well understanding the meaning of that call hence without arguing further he turned to leave when…
Abhijeet left towards him with: Freddy…! (Freddy glanced over him though kept silence while Abhijeet added softly as…) Freddy tum khud socho na aik baar, main aur sir yahan hain, tou Bureau mein Vivek aur Tasha akely sb kaisy sambhalien gy, koe tou senior hona chahiye na unhien guide kerny k liye, hmm…?
Freddy though he himself knew that he was giving some lame suggestions but he really wanted to stay hence suggested meekly as: Tou sir hum kisi senior IB officer sy request ker sakty hain na k aik din k liye woh aa jaien…?
Abhijeet looked at him in small disappointed smile with: Aik din k liye nahin Freddy, sirf aik ghanty k liye, phir tou sir aa jaien gy na Bureau… (And unknowingly his tone started getting low while continuing as…) Aur shaid main bhi aa jaon kyun k tumhary Daya sir tou soo rahy hain… (And completed in real quiet tone saying more to himself as…) Aur yun bhi ussy koun sa yahan mairi koe zarorat hai…
Pain came in the eyes of every person present there and…
Freddy supportively pressed his upper-arm with: Sir…!
Abhijeet inhaling deeply while composing himself, looked at him with: Freddy mujhy ptta hai k tum yahan rukna chah rahy ho lekin Bureau mein bhi tou kisi ka hona zarori hai na…? (Freddy nodded slowly while Abhijeet completed in same soft tone as…) Aur phir ager yahan koe bhi zarorat hue tou main tumhien call ker k bula lun ga na, promise…
Freddy nodding him quietly, suddenly moved forward and hugged him with his full strength making Abhijeet really silent at his place, who inhaling deeply to keep his composure, just patted his back in assurance, understanding Freddy's worry and care for him from his that act…
As though Abhijeet and Freddy shared a positive and friendly relation but Freddy was more close to Daya and the two randomly used to share hugs but that was not the case with Abhijeet… For once because Abhijeet was not really a hugger, he did not appreciate people to get physical with him and secondly because Freddy himself was quite reluctant to approach him such free-frankly because of being scared of his anger and also because of his composed-serious body-language and conduct…
Soon Freddy slowly moved back and glancing over Abhijeet to receive a small-assuring smile, he just left the room the same second without having any other word with anyone, quietly followed by Vivek and Tasha, who had closed the room door on their back…
Abhijeet kept standing there quietly still absent-mindedly looking at the way the three left, having a silent-sad smile on his face when came out from his thoughts listening to…
ACP sir's calm voice as: Samjha achha laity ho tum Abhijeet… (And seeing the latter's question-filled-silent eyes on himself, he completed as…) Umeed hai main bhi tumhien itni hi aasani sy samjha paon ga jitni aasani sy tum ny Freddy ko samjhaya hai…
Abhijeet not getting his meaning, asked him in real confusion as: Kya matlab sir…? Mujhy kya samjhana hai aap ny…?
ACP sir replied in same calm tone as: Wohi jo tum samajh ker bhi samajhna nahin chah rahy…
Abhijeet for few moments kept looking at him looking really confused when suddenly something hit in his mind and he asked him in complete seriousness with: Aap ki Sunil sy koe baat hue hai kya sir…?
ACP sir nodded in composed way with: Hmm aur main ny ussy Daya k liye medical limbs restraint straps arrange kerny ki permission dy di hai… (Ignoring Abhijeet's completely shocked face, he continued as…) Aur aaj raat ya kal subah tk woh Daya ko apny hospital mein shift kerny k bhi sb arrangements complete ker ly ga tou…
Abhijeet cut him in strong tone as: Sorry sir lekin main aap ko easa kuchh nahin kerny dun ga, aap log Daya ko kahin nahin ly k jaien gy please, woh yahan sy sirf ghar jaye ga, bs…
ACP sir asked him in stiff tone as: Tumhien mairi ks baat sy lg raha hai Abhijeet k main tum sy ijjazat mang raha hoon, ya mujhy kb kuchh kerny sy pehly tumhari ijjazat ki zarorat perny lggi…? (Abhijeet just pressed his lips hardly, looking really helpless while ACP sir completed as…) Sirf tumhara hi haq nahin hai Daya py, humara bhi kuchh haq hai, humara bhi kuchh lagta hai woh…
Abhijeet looking really restless asked him in real helplessness with: Main kb mnna ker raha hoon sir k aap logon ka koe haq nahin hai uss py lekin aap log mairi baat bhi tou samjhien na please… (Moving close to ACP sir, completed in low-pitched-convincing tone as…) Hum Daya ko Sunil k hospital shift nahin ker sakty sir, woh mental asylum hai…
ACP sir looked at him in complete seriousness with: Mujhy ptta hai achhy sy Abhijeet k Sunil kahan job kerta hai lekin mujhy yeh samajh nahin aa rahi k aakhir tumhien samajh kyun nahin aa rahi k Daya ka treatment wahin ho sakta hai… (Completed while stressing as…) Asylum mein bhi logon ka elaj hi kerty hain doctors, wahan py bhi log theek hoty hain Abhijeet aur wapis zindagi…
Abhijeet cut him in frustration-filled-helplessness with: Sir mujhy ptta hai yeh sb aur mujhy dikh raha hai k Daya ka treatment iss hospital mein nahin ho sakta, aik nurse ka srr phar chuka hai woh, hr chehry mein Shastri dikh raha hai ussy, uss ko ehsas tk nahin hai k ab woh kisi bnd kamry mein qaid nahin hai, bl k humary sath, humary paas hai lekin aap log mairi baat bhi tou samjhien na please… (Uttered a little aloud in real frustration while jerking his head in helplessness with…) Bhagwan main kya kron, main kaisy samjhaon aakhir mairi baat… (Turned towards ACP sir again while trying again as…) Sir main…
And he stopped seeing…
ACP sir raising his hand to stop him with: Rukko… (And turning towards the table, placed beside Daya's bed, he poured water in a steel glass from the steel jug placed there and turning towards his restless kid, he smoothly grabbed his upper-arm and took him towards the couch present there and signaled him with…) Baitho yahan… (Abhijeet though still looking edgy but obeyed him quietly and ACP sir forwarded the glass towards him with…) Pakro… (Again he received a silent obedience in return and grabbing a seat beside him, ACP sir added as…) Aur ab pehly khud ko shant kro, ta k phir shanti sy mujhy apni baat samjha skko… (Abhijeet looked towards him in stress-filled-silence and ACP sir looking in his eyes completed as…) Ager tum ny mujhy convince ker lia tou main Sunil ko rook dun ga warna tumhien Daya ko ly k mairi hr baat maan'nani ho gi, promise…?
Abhijeet really missed a beat with that single word and instantly looked towards his brother and then towards his father, when seeing his questioning gaze still on himself, Abhijeet started looking everywhere but at him… Still trying to control over his anxiousness, he nervously gulped down a sip of water in his completely dry throat and then inhaling a deep breath to somehow compose himself, he just nodded quietly to ACP sir as a reply still clutching the water glass in his tight grip as his effort to relax his emotions as that was one of the hardest promises he ever made…
Where ACP sir understood well that his elder son was not someone who would make decisions out of emotions; that was his younger son… Though it was not like Abhijeet was an emotionless person but in all those years he had hardly seen his emotions clouding his decisions or judgment… After all it was not his intelligence or sharpness because of which he was called as Brain of CID as they all were intelligence officers so being intelligent and sharp were kind of their job description, the reasons Abhijeet stand out from others were his wittiness, presence of mind in every situation and his spontaneous response after analyzing the situation in micro-seconds… So if now he was continuously trying to convince them on something and was being unable to do so because of his agitated-restless state of mind, then ACP sir was willing to give him some time to calm down himself and then at least a chance to explain what was troubling him…
After few minutes' complete silence in the room, finally…
Abhijeet initiated in a composed way as: Sir mujhy andaza hai k jaisy heart problem k liye humien cardiology k hospital jana hota hai, wasey hi ager humara brain humary sath games khailny lggy tou humein mental health care k hospital jana hota hai… (Completed while giving stress as…) Main khud wahan doo saal raha hoon sir, mujhy achhy sy andaza hai iss baat ka k woh jagah bhi elaj k liye hi hai, kisi qisem ka label ya stamp lagny ki nahin…
ACP sir asked him quietly as: Tou phir Daya k wahan jany py kyun itny preshan ho rahy ho tum…?
Abhijeet looked at him in all seriousness with: Daya ka case chal raha hai court mein sir… (ACP sir went really quiet as obviously he too knew it but he did not interrupt the later, letting him complete who continued in injured tone as…) Aap ko lagta hai kya sir k Shastri koe itna bewakoof hai js ny yeh jaanty hoye bhi k Daya ny ussi k khilaf case file kia hai, iss k dimagh mein apna hi chehra bitha dia hai…? (Slightly shook his head while adding as…) Nahin sir, Shastri ny jaan boujh k kia hai yeh… (Asked him in real pain as…) Aap ko yaad hai Daya ny apny bchchy ki custody k liye jo case kia hai, uss mein uss ny Amavasya k liye kya likhwaya tha…? (Repeated while stressing on every word as…) Mentally disturbed… (Signaled him towards his brother with…) Woh daikhien, Shastri ka bddla… (And a drop slipped from his eye while ACP sir in real hurt, secured his hand tightly in his both hands when roughly dusting off the drop from his face he turned his gaze towards his father again with…) Shastri ny iss ko issi k shareer mein qaid ker dia hai sir, ab ussy issy kisi aur kamry mein bnd ker k rakhny ki zarorat nahin hai bilkul, nahin hai ussy koe zarorat…
ACP sir tried again as: Abhijeet iss ko issi qaid sy nikalny k liye tou main keh raha hoon k Sunil ko iss ka treatment kerny doo baita…
Abhijeet looked at him hurtfully with: Main kb rook raha hoon Sunil ko iss ka treatment kerny sy sir…? Krry woh, ussy jo kerna hai krry lekin uss k hospital mein nahin… (Spreading hands on his face to get his focus, turned towards ACP sir with…) Sir ager Daya ki condition bahir kisi ko ptta chal gae, khas-kr Shastri k media group ya uss k lawyer ko tou woh hr tarhan sy iss ko apny haq mein istimal kerny ki koshish krien gy…
ACP sir cut him with: Lekin Abhijeet, tum yeh kyun bhool rahy ho k hum chahy jitna marzi chhupa lien, Shastri khud unhien btta sakta hai…?
Abhijeet nodded in anger-filled-injured smile with: Btta sakta hai sir lekin sabit nahin ker sakta… (ACP sir looked at him getting quiet while Abhijeet nodded him in all seriousness with…) Ager hum ny iss samey issy Asylum mein shift ker dia tou hum khud ussy apny haththon sy woh saboot dy rahy hoon gy, jo main nahin hony aina chahta sir, please…
ACP sir knowing his point was absolutely valid nodded slightly with: Main tumhara point samajh raha hoon Abhijeet aur main uss sy agreed bhi hoon lekin humien iss ka treatment tou kerna hai na, tum ny kuchh socha hai uss barey mein…?
Abhijeet nodded stubbornly with: Ghar ly k jaon ga main issy sir, main sambhal lun ga issy khud…
ACP sir asked him in real disappointment with: Kaisy…? Tum doctor ho ya psychiatrist…? (Abhijeet kept mum though looking really determined while ACP sir added as…) Tum ny daikha na, woh apny paas nahin aany dy raha kisi ko, hath nahin lggany dy raha woh khud ko kisi ko, hr aik ko Shastri samajh k uss py hamla ker raha hai… (Deliberately trying to scare him because of knowing Abhijeet was being stubborn about taking Daya home without preparing for it, added as…) Tumhien yaad nahin hai kya, pehly tou woh bilkul theek tha tb uss ny khud ko jlla lia tha tou ab tou issy kuchh hosh hi nahin hai, iss samey tou yeh kuchh bhi ker sakta hai, tumhien ya khud ko maar bhi…
Abhijeet instantly cut him in fear with: Sir please, please… (And nodded while looking really helpless with…) Theek hai sir, main maanta hoon k Daya khud k liye bhi khatarnak hai iss samey aur main doctor ya psychiatrist nahin hoon… Lekin phir jo hain unhien kahien na k issy theek krien kisi tarhan… Sunil hai k issy bandhny k peichhy prra hua hai, nahin bandh sakty bhae hum issy… (Looked at ACP sir in extreme pain with…) Kya woh jaanta nahin hai k issy kb aur kyun bandha jata tha…? (ACP sir looked at him in silence-filled-pain while Abhijeet gulping down a moist breath, added in slow tone as…) Iss ko jb bhi bandha gaya hai torture kerny k liye bandha gaya hai phir chahy woh kisi bhi qisem ka torture ho… (Wiping off the moisture from his eyes, he stood up with…) Aap aaien mairy sath sir, main aap ko kuchh dikhata hoon, aap aaien please…
And he left towards his brother, quietly followed by his father who did not interrupt him when reaching near Daya…
Abhijeet smoothly removing hair from Daya's forehead glanced over ACP sir while signaling him towards Daya's temples with: Yeh daikh rahy hain na sir aap, yeh nishan…? (Turning towards him, added in pain as…) Yeh electric shocks dainy k nishan hain sir aur main pury vishvas sy keh sakta hoon k jb iss ki blood reports aaien gi tou unn mein bhi easi drugs milien gi jo seedha dimagh py asar kerti hain… (Looked towards ACP sir in disgust-filled-pain as…) Aap ny woh room nahin daikha sir js mein issy rakha hua tha, itna ganda kamra tha woh aur itni tarhan ki machinien, woh screen, woh… (And jerking his head in anger-filled-ache turned towards his brother with…) Ptta nahin kitna zada torture kia ho ga uss janwar ny issy k aik hafty mein iss ki yeh haalat ker di uss ny… (And turned towards ACP sir again while asking him in hatred-filled-moist tone as…) Aur iss sb mein uss ny sb sy gehri chaal jaanty hain kya chali hai sir…? (ACP sir kept looking at him in complete silence while he added in real pain as…) Aik taraf woh iss ko humari aankhon k samny, humary haththon sy mrrwana chahta hai… (ACP sir looked at him in shock-filled-pain while Abhijeet nodded firmly, adding as…) Aur dosri taraf humien iss k haththon sy toorna chahta hai… (Inhaling a deep breath while trying to remain compose, added as…) Shastri jaanta hai achhy sy k yeh tou iss haalat mein hai nahin k jaan skky k iss ko elaj k liye bandha ja raha hai ya… (And stopping there he gulped down a moist breath and shook his head in real pain as…) Sir yeh zada dair tk nahin seh paye ga uss tarhan ka elaj jo Sunil keh raha hai, mrr jaye ga yeh ya maar ly ga khud ko… (And wiping off the moisture again forming in his eyes, he shook determinedly as…) Aur main easa nahin hony dy sakta, na hi iss ko kuchh ho ga aur na hi hum toot k Shastri ko jeetny dien gy… (Anger started coming in his eyes while adding as…) Woh ager yeh samajh raha hai k hum Daya mein ulajh k case sy htt jaien gy tou yeh uss ki zindagi ki sb sy brri bhool hai sir, sb sy brri bhool…
ACP sir asked him softly as: Abhijeet, tumhari hr baat maan li main ny baita… (Abhijeet looked at him in question getting quiet knowing well there was a "But" coming while ACP sir completed as…) Lekin tum ny phir kuchh socha hai k Daya ka treatment kerna kaisy hai…?
Abhijeet jerked his head restlessly with: Sir main koe doctor thori hoon, mujhy kaisy ptta ho ga… Aap kahien na Sunil ko k koe aur treatment sochy ya Salunkhy sahab ko bolien k koe chemical banien, kuchh bhi krien lekin bs iss ko theek ker dien kisi bhi tarhan please…
ACP sir nodded him consolingly with: Preshan nahin ho, aaj raat mein yahan sb mil k baithty hain, Daya k doctor sy main pehly hi mil chukka hoon, shaid raat tk iss ki kuchh reports bhi aa jaien, phir sochty hain kuchh, hmm…? (Abhijeet nodded still looking worried and restless while ACP sir concluded as…) Tum ab yahan rukko iss k paas, main Bureau jata hoon, raat mein milty hain aur ager kuchh bhi problem hua tou call ker laina, theek hai…
Abhijeet nodded in assurance with: Jee sir…
ACP sir giving him a silent smile, turned towards his younger son and moving near him, lovingly spread hand from his forehead to his head and bowing over his face, stamped a soft kiss on his forehead… And he moved back while turning his face away to hide that salty drop from his elder son that had quietly slipped on his cheek though he could not get successful in doing so… And inhaling deeply while composing himself, ACP sir turned and avoiding looking in his son's eyes, he just gave a soft pat on his cheek and left the room the same minute…
Abhijeet for few moments kept looking at the way ACP sir had left and then shaking head to himself, he turned towards his younger one and quietly sat on the stool placed beside Daya's bed… For few moments he kept looking at his face in silence and then for the time, leaving all fears and doubts aside, he smoothly rested his forehead on his brother's upper-arm and quietly closed his eyes, soon dozing off because of not even blinking an eye since last night's rescue operation and also being relaxed that the younger one wouldn't be waking up before evening as was told by Sunil…
Abhijeet had no idea for how long he was sleeping there like that when feeling a soft pressure on his shoulder, he moved back with jerk uttering in hope-filled-worried tone as "Daya…!" and pain came in the latter's eyes seeing how alert he was even in his sleep and how much he was hoping for it all to be just the worst dream of his life…
When Abhijeet's gaze went silent seeing his brother was sleeping there in silence and spreading hand on his face to compose himself he looked in the other direction to find Freddy standing there and seeing his gaze on himself…
Freddy said in composed tone as: Sir dopahar ho gae hai tou hum aap k liye lunch ly k aaye hain… (Abhijeet looked in the direction Freddy had signaled to find Tasha present there busy in placing the utensils and food-basket while seeing Abhijeet's gaze again turning towards him, Freddy hurriedly clarified as…) Sir hum sir sy pouchh k aaye hain, promise…
Unintentionally a small disappointed smile appeared on Abhijeet's face and…
Abhijeet slowly stood up with: Mtt drra kro hr waqt, itna bhi khatarnak nahin hoon main… (Freddy smiled embarrassingly while Abhijeet completed as…) Main fresh ho k aata hoon…
Freddy nodded in assurance and Abhijeet left towards the bathroom while in his way, nodding back to Tasha in soft smile, replying her silent greeting…
Soon the three could be seen having their meal while discussing about the case reported today in the Bureau for whose investigation they were divided by ACP sir in the teams of two with Vivek and ACP sir in one team and Freddy and Tasha in the other… And now when ACP sir and Vivek were waiting in the Bureau for some forensic reports, Freddy and Tasha were waiting for their informer to give them some information, and as they were already doing field word hence instead of going back to Bureau and waiting there, they thought to come to hospital during that time, seeing it was already lunch time and ACP sir had allowed them to do so…
After having their lunch, Freddy left to place the food-basket back in their car and seeing Tasha returning from the bathroom, Abhijeet left to wash his hands…
When listening to some disturbance from Daya's side, Tasha glancing over the closed bathroom door, hesitantly left towards Daya's bed and as she had seen Abhijeet doing so, she too softly started patting Daya's head, while whispering soft comforting words to him to calm him down…
When suddenly Daya opened his eyes with a jerk and seeing her there, his face turned pale the very next moment with his gaze froze on her face and Tasha understanding nothing what to do, softly pressed his shoulder with "Ss" but the word died in her throat with Daya's loud scream, who jerking away her hand with a loud jerk resulting her almost fell on the floor, jumped out from the bed, rushing away…
When listening to his voice Abhijeet too hurried back and seeing a pale Tasha and scared to death Daya, he got completely blank for few moments when glancing over him with terror-filled-teary eyes…
Daya who was already squeezed in the corner now, turned his frightened gaze back towards Tasha and joining his trembling hands in front of her, pleaded to her as: Please nahin, dour raho mujh sy, mujhy mtt chhuaoo, mujh sy dour raho please, mairy qareeb mtt aao, mujhy mtt hath lgao, mujh sy dour raho…
Tasha looking absolutely stunned and broken turned her eyes having cracks in them towards Abhijeet who too was paused at his place, looking in immense pain understanding well to whom Daya was seeing in Tasha when…
Daya tightly clutching on his clothes, said in a little loud though still pleadingly as: Mujhy mtt chhuoo, yeh mohabbat nahin hai, yeh havvas hai, havvas hai yeh…
And he started crying while slowly sitting in the corner while Tasha had already left towards outside, with tightly pressed palm on her mouth to somehow chock her pain-filled sobs… Abhijeet looking towards his brother with teary eyes, too left the room, knowing he could not approach him like that or the situation could get worse…
When closing the room on his back, Abhijeet looked towards Tasha in extreme pain to find her sitting there on the bench while tightly grabbing the bench's edge and inhaling and exhaling rapidly to control over the hurricane of tears she was trying her best to keep inside herself… Abhijeet leaving towards her with fast steps grabbed her from her upper-arm and after making her stand, without saying a word had just tightly secured her in a tight embrace, allowing Tasha to empty her hurricane of salty drops on his shoulder…
As since day one Tasha was like a younger sister to DUO, whose naughty-mischievous nature had made them smile many times and they always loved her with all their hearts, protect her like elder brothers, guide her like affectionate seniors, cover for her in front of ACP sir, secure her from dangers and today realizing that Daya was seeing that monster in her, was tearing her apart… And now she was tightly clutching on Abhijeet's shirt while crying her heart out, who was wrapping her like a precious treasure with his arm wrapped around her shoulders and his other hand present on her head, holding moisture in his own eyes…
And Abhijeet slowly opened his eyes feeling a soft pressure on his shoulder, though was still looking confused, struggling to remember where he was present at the moment…
