Guest, Okays, so iss story ko pehly bhi aik doo baar mairi story mein mention kia hai kuchh friends ny, though uss tarhan sy nahin js tarhan aap ny mention kia, anyhow, sexual harassment story ka topic hai, plot nahin… Topic aur plot doo different cheezien hoti hain, aur by the way aap ny dono stories ka topic bhi ghalat likha hai, humari stories ka topic sexual abuse hai, sexual harassment nahin… Harassment aur abuse bhi doo different cheezien hain… Anyway first thing first, so yes, I agree k dono stories ka topic same hai, that is, Male Sexual Abuse Victim, lekin plot ka matlab hota hai that series of events js py story aagy berhti hai, the cause-and-effect relation, the answer of what next…? What now…? questions… Like for this topic, the plot can be, ab rape ho gaya tou ks ka hua, ks ny kia, kyun kia, kahan kia, rape victim trauma sy kaisy deal ker raha hai, js ny kia uss ka kya hua, and blah blah, that all is what plot is about, sirf doo stories ka topic same hony sy kisi bhi story ka plot purana nahin ho jata… Pehly bhi mairi aur Poonum ki aik story ka topic taqriben same tha, mairi aur Gadhadada ki aik story ka topic exactly same tha, even hum ny apni story bhi shaid aik hi din post ki thi, Dada ny IF py aur main ny yahan, iss ka yeh matlab nahin ho gaya tha k hum mein sy kisi ka bhi plot purana tha… Because of writing on the same show and characters, stories k topic same hona bohut common baat hai, iss sy plot purany nahin ho jaty… Aur aap ny story ka naam tou mention ker dia, for which I am thankful but my question is still there k topic same hony sy mairi story ka plot kaisy purana ho gaya…? Kisi writer ki story k plot ko kisi proof k baghair purana kehny ka bhi koe matlab nahin hota dear… Main ny bhi yeh bilkul nahin kaha k aap ny mairy idea ko copied kaha hai, yeh cheez aap khud misunderstand ker rahy ho, I said k ager aap ko plot purana lg raha hai tou easey kisi aur plot ka reference btta doo, I would like to have some ideas from there… Zarori nahin hai k ager aap ko yeh sb details daina exaggeration ya story khenchana lg raha hai tou mujhy bhi easa hi lggy, maira apna andaaz hai story narrate kerny ka jo k mujhy pasand hai tou aap k suggestion py apna writing ya narration style change kerny ki mujhy kya zarorat hai…? Good to know k aap ko ptta hai k iss sb mein time lgta hai and thank you for your concern and suggestion too about other readers and me, but I am sure k ager kisi aur reader ko koe bhi problem ho ga kisi bhi cheez sy so they can communicate it to me directly aur jahan tk mairi baat hai so I enjoy putting efforts in my story to cover every aspect of it… And as you have communicated your problem to me so in order to somehow address it I can only suggest you that how about instead of asking me to save your time and energy, you do this yourself for yourself and leave the story for the time being and return only (that too if you want to return of course) once the story will get complete, in this way you will be able to easily skip the parts that would feel unnecessary or exaggeration to you, simple… Iss sy aap ka bhi valuable time bch jaye ga jo aap kahin aur invest ker skko gy aur aap ko mairy time aur energy ki bhi tension nahin laini prry gi… Main ny bhi sirf apna point hi rakha tha js ko aap ny shaid khud misunderstand kia… Okay well, it does sound like a criticism to me, that too pointless one so I thought to communicate it to you, the same way you thought to communicate your point to me… I am glad to know you like my stories and read WYDT for that many times, thank you for that… It's completely fine yar, kabhi kabhi hota hai easa k humien story mein feel milna bnd ho jati hai, after-all we are humans not robots jo hr time aik jaisy emotion mein hi rahien, so it's very understandable… Bilkul sahi, reviewers ko bilkul haq hota hai apni baat khul k kehny ka, bhaly hi woh regular reviewers hoon ya nahin aur issi liye hum writers feedback ko encourage bhi kerty hain, but the thing is, writer k paas bhi pura haq hota hai apni story jaisy chahien wasey likhny ka aur reviewer sy apni baat khul k kehny ka bhi… And not at-all dear, I am not at-all hurt by your honest review, quite annoyed though but that annoyance too will be over soon hopefully as I really do try to start forgetting about baseless criticisms as soon as I receive them… And yups, I too am sorry if I hurt you with my honest answer, thank you…
Ishq Daya, Hahaha thank you sooo very much sweetheart for mentioning about both stories and highlighting the differences of their plots, I am truly deeply humbled and obliged by your efforts, means a lot to me, khush raho hamesha aap, much love… :-* :-* Thank you love for finding the author doing the same thing, hehe, loads of love to you, hugs… :-* Thank you Boss for liking the silent conversation between ACP sir and Daya sir, indeed means a lot to me, much humbled, tighttt squeezing warmth filled hug for you… :-* Yups, hopefully, fingers crossed… :-* :-* Hahaha main pehly hi bdnaam hoti ja rahi hoon Tragedy genre mein likhny ki wajah sy aur aap ko LRWR jaisi story ka wait hai, hehe, let's see Boss, itny zada sarey gaany bhi kahan milien gy ab, hahaha, khush raho hamesha deary, loads of love to you… :-* Thanks a lot dear, keep smiling and stay safe, god bless you… :))

Friends here is the next chapter, have a happy reading, love you all and take care please… :))
DUO's Home…
Daya's Room…
ACP sir could be seen now sitting beside Daya, securing his hand in his own and absent-mindedly softly rubbing his thumb on those scratch marks on his younger kid's hand when placing a soft kiss on his hand…
ACP sir turning his gaze towards his son's face, softly spread hand on his head, telling him in silent smile as: Preshan nahin hona, apny samny bitha k lunch kerwaya hai tumhary bhai ko Bureau bhaejny sy pehly warna uss ka tou pura irada tha ghar sy yunhi khisakny ka… (And he chuckled silently when receiving only deep silence in return his smile also soon faded away and ACP sir asked him in hurt-filled-anger as…) Lekin tumhien kya, tumhien tou yunhi chup-chap soona hai bs ya jo nahin hain unn k barey mein soch soch ker drrna hai, humari tou koe chinta hi nahin hai na tumhien…? (And he nodded while telling him in pain-filled-hurt as…) Suuni main ny, tum ny jo gyaan bhari baatien ki hain Abhijeet sy apny Raghuvendra sir aur apni Maa jee ko ly ker… Ghussa tou aa raha tha mujhy uss samey bhi lekin socha pehly tumhary bhai ko bhaej dun ghar sy phir shanti sy tumhari khaber laita hoon main, warna uss k samny tumhien kuchh kehta tou uss k ander ka vakeel jaag jana tha foren… (And asked him angrily with pain in his voice as…) Tum btao ab mujhy zrra, insan bn'nana hai tum ny k nahin…? Kabhi khud k bazu py chot lggwa laity ho, kabhi yun itni buri tarhan chheel [violently scratch] laity ho khud ko, aur ab iss tarhan ki baatien bhi shuru ker dien tum ny…? (And now softly placed his hand on his kid's cheek while telling him in moisture-filled-firm tone as…) Kahin nahin jao gy tum Daya… (Nodded to him in love-filled-anger as…) Samajh aa rahi hai mujhy sb k ab tumhary iss ulty dimagh mein kya plan bn raha hai… Koe tumhari class na lgga skky iss liye patli glli sy nikalna chah rahy ho na tum lekin main easa hony nahin dun ga kabhi, itna preshan jo kia hai humien uss sb ki dantt koun khaye ga, haan…? (And roughly wiping off the drop slipped on his cheek, he instructed the latter strictly as…) Ab hum jo step lainy waly hain na tumhien ly ker, chup-chap uss mein humara sath daina… (While unknowingly tightening his grip on his kid's hand, told him in fear-filled-love as…) Aur kaan khol k suun lo tum chiranjeev, ager uss sy tumhari tabiyt zrra si bhi mazeed bigri na tou bohut dantton ga main tumhien, samjhy tum…? (And gulping down a moist breath, he smoothly rubbed his hand in his younger son's head, asking him in soft-love-filled tone as…) Himmet kerna tum bchchy, sath daina humara please, be brave…
And bowing over his face, ACP sir caringly stamped a soft kiss on his kid's forehead and for few moments remained in the same posture, trying to assure his kid that all would be fine, or maybe trying to assure himself, as he was not sure anymore… When a drop silently slipped from his eye, getting absorbed in his kid's hair and gulping down a moist breath, ACP sir moved back and wiping off the moisture from his eyes, turned his hope-filled-worried gaze towards his son's face to see those deep dark circles present around his eyes, which had now become a sort of feature of his kid's weak-tired face, increasing the pain and hurt of the father's heart and determination too, to get rid from them and all those mixture of feelings slowly took him from the present to the time when…
DUO's Home…
It was Sunday noon and ACP sir had made sure that it would be their off day, as CID Mumbai had already officially filed the case against Shastri for Daya's kidnapping so on Monday was the case's first hearing… But still being on medical leave, Daya was neither coming to the Bureau nor had talked for once with Anirudh or any other person except Abhijeet about the case, so ACP sir wanted to meet with Anirudh in DUO's home to discuss the case for the one final time in the presence of Daya before going to the court the next day…
And it was also because, after getting no clear answer from Abhijeet about Daya's health or him joining back from the coming week, ACP sir had thought to talk to Daya himself about it and hence arrived a little early in DUO's home and now Freddy and ACP sir could be seen coming out from Freddy's car…
As Freddy really wanted to meet Daya to whom he hadn't met after that only time where Daya had denied meeting them and now after knowing that ACP sir had a plan to go to DUO's home today, Freddy also requested him to tag-along and ACP sir accepted it, thinking it would help in a positive way, knowing the close bonding of Daya and Freddy but little did the two know that it would turn out as a blessing in disguise…
Where at one side that all was going on, on the other side in DUO's home, just few minutes back Abhijeet had entered in Daya's room to find him sitting near his room's window looking outside in silence… Abhijeet softly cleared his throat to get the latter's attention and after getting successful in that…
Abhijeet told him softly as: Daya main shower lainy ja raha hoon bchcha, tu ghar ka dihaan rakhna…
Daya getting nervous looked towards the wall-clock and then at him with: Iss samey…?
Abhijeet getting what he meant replied in light smile as: Anirudh ny teen bjjy tk aany ka kaha tha abhi tou khali doo hoye hain, chinta na ker, main bs jaldi sy aa jaon ga…
Daya nodded him slightly with: Hmm, theek hai, jao tum main dihaan rakhon ga ghar ka…
Abhijeet smiled softly at him with: Shabash…
And giving a soft pat on his shoulder, he left to take shower where Daya again turned his gaze towards outside silently praying in his heart that no-one arrive there in their home before Abhijeet return…
But it looked like not all prayers are to be get answered as ACP sir and Freddy came early and just now had rang their doorbell, making Daya slightly jump on his chair who was too involved in his thoughts…
Spreading hand on his face nervously, Daya looked at the wall clock to find it only striking 02:11 pm, and thinking that it could not be ACP sir or Anirudh, Daya thinking to talk to the visitor without opening the main door, finally left towards the main door though still looking little nervous, where during that time the doorbell had rang one more time…
Reaching near the main door, Daya peeped outside from the spyhole and got hell nervous seeing ACP sir and Freddy standing there… Feeling quite anxious now, Daya without replying them anything or opening the main door for them, hurried away towards Abhijeet's room…
And…
Daya now standing in front of Abhijeet's room's bathroom door knocked it nervously with: Abhi…! Abhi, sir aaye hoye hain bahir…
Abhijeet, who too had heard the doorbell, replied from inside as: Tou ja k drwaza khol na bchcha, kuchh nahin ho ga, ja jaldi…
Daya told him quite anxiously with: Freddy bhi hai sath mein…
Abhijeet went silent now knowing that ACP sir would easily understand Daya's hesitant body language and at the most would only pat him and because of having continuous therapies and sessions with Sunil, Daya had now got that much composed to handle that much interaction with his close family but there were chances of Freddy trying to hug him and Daya was fearing now that it would result in some abrupt and even rash reaction from his side…
When…
Abhijeet's composed voice rose as: Achha ruuk, aata hoon main…
Daya looked at the bathroom door helplessly feeling bad and disappointed at himself that even with his presence at the home, his brother couldn't take even shower at peace and…
Daya replied helplessly from outside as: Abhi I am sorry yar…
Abhijeet snubbed him from inside as: Daya pagal na bn, aa raha hoon main jaldi sy yeh shampoo nikaal k, tu apny room mein ja, main sir ko keh dun ga k tu medicines ly k soo raha tha, ja ab…
Daya threw another helpless glance at the bathroom door and was going to leave towards his own room when Abhijeet's mobile placed on the dressing table started ringing now and even somewhere in his heart knowing who that caller could be, Daya left to check the caller ID to find ACP sir's name showing there, who had now decided to call Abhijeet after trying their luck with the doorbell for four-five times till then…
Daya looked towards the closed bathroom door again, listening to the water running sound from the inside hence inhaling deeply, sidewise encouraging himself in his mind, grabbing the mobile Daya attended the call quietly to listen to…
ACP sir's confused voice as: Hello Abhijeet, tum ghar py ho kya…? Hello…?
Daya replied silently as: Sir…!
There was few moments' silence on the other side before…
ACP sir's silent whispered toned voice rose from the other end as: Daya…!
Daya tried to clear his brother's position as: Sorry sir, woh Abhi shower ly raha hai tou drwaza nahin khol skka aur main woh, main…
But…
ACP sir cut him silently with: It's Okay baita, hum log hi jaldi aa gaye thy, don't worry…
Daya felt like someone was cutting his heart with blunt knife, feeling real pain thinking ACP sir must be assuming now that Daya still did not want to meet them and hence wasn't opening the door for them and somehow composing himself…
Daya still struggling to keep his voice stable, replied him as: Main drwaza kholta hoon sir and I am sorry sir, sorry…
And he cut the line without waiting for any response from the other side and placing the mobile on the dressing-table again, he left to open the main door before the fear of his heart took over again, without even realizing that the water falling sound from the bathroom had already stopped now…
Reaching at the main door, Daya inhaling a deep breath, slowly released it as his effort to relax himself and nodding to himself like was bucking up himself…
Daya finally opened the main door and glanced over them with: Sorry aap logon ko wait kerna prra, aaien please…
ACP sir was too shocked and hurt to see his younger son's weak face, dull color, tired body language, water-bags under his eyes and dark circles around his eyes that he couldn't stop Freddy in time and…
Freddy seeing Daya there moved forward in a big warm smile and tried to hug him with: Daya sir aap, kitna achh…
And he couldn't complete with…
Daya pushing him hardly away from himself with a loud shout as: Dour htto mujh sy, hath nahin…
And he stopped right there with widened eyes, looking as much shocked as the other three people present there were after seeing Freddy's forehead bleeding because of him getting hardly hit with the wall's corner telling Daya that his fear had come out louder and stronger than he had expected and as Freddy was not at-all ready or expecting that kind of reaction from his Daya sir, hence that hard push took him completely off-guarded resulting him hitting his head with quite some force on the wall's side/corner…
Daya whispered in shock-filled-horror as: Khkh-khoon… (Said a little aloud getting panic now as…) Ff-Freddy tumhary srr sy khoon, mm-main ny yeh kya, Freddy…
And he tried to leave towards him or touch him to support him, but he could do that neither and before Freddy or ACP sir could try to assure him, seeing him panicking like that…
Another composed voice cut him there with: Daya…!
Daya looked in the direction to find Abhijeet standing there now and…
Daya rushed towards him with: Mm-main ny yeh jaan-boujh k nahin kia Abhi, sir-sir log wait ker rahy thy tou mm-main ny drwaza khol dia, aur woh Ff-Freddy, Freddy ko dhakka maar dia main ny kitni zoor ka, khoon nikal raha hai uss ka kitna, main ny yeh kya…
Abhijeet trying to calm him down, softly pressed his upper-arm with: Daya relax, kamry mein jao tum, main daikhta hoon Freddy ko, jao tum…
Daya tried again helplessly as: Main ny yeh jaan-boujh k nahin kia Abhi, main…
Abhijeet cupping his face cut him in soft-yet-strong tone as: I know Daya, jaanta hoon main yeh baat bchcha… (And pulling back his hands, gave a consoling pat on his shoulder with…) Kamry mein jao tum, jao shabash…
Daya nodded still looking quite restless and disturbed and turned towards Freddy with: I am sorry Freddy, sorry yar…
And he left the scene the same moment…
Where Abhijeet turned his silent-apologetic gaze towards the figures still standing near the closed main door looking at him, not looking angry or hurt by his brother's behavior but confused and worried and leaving towards them now…
Abhijeet tried apologetically as: I am reall…
But…
ACP sir cut him in calm-yet-stiff tone as: Abhijeet jb sy yahan aaye hain, sirf sorry hi sunnai per raha hai humien lekin wajah ab tk samajh nahin aa rahi itny zada sorry suun'nany ki…?
Abhijeet hid his eyes quietly and avoiding the query, he turned towards Freddy who was standing there placing a handkerchief on his wound, provided to him by ACP sir who had immediately attended him on initial basis while…
Abhijeet softly removing Freddy's hand from the wound, tried to take a look with: Dikhao idher, stitches ki tou zarorat nahin hai kahin, warna hospital ly k jaon tumhien jaldi sy…
Freddy tried to assure him as: Nahin sir, ab tou khoon aana bhi ruuk gaya hai shaid… (Abhijeet was also feeling relieved now seeing the cut didn't require stitches, sidewise listening to Freddy completing assuredly as…) Main theek hoon sir, sach mein…
Abhijeet gave a gratified pat on his shoulder with: Thank you… (And tried to clear his brother's place with…) I am sorry yar, Daya ny intentionally nahin kia yeh, ussy khud nahin ptta rehta aaj kal woh kb kya ker baithta hai…
Freddy nodded understandingly as: Sir please, main naraz nahin hoon bilkul Daya sir sy… (Completed little worriedly as…) Bs mujhy samajh nahin aa rahi k unhien achanak easey hua kya tha…?
Abhijeet hiding his eyes unintentionally looked towards his father to receive a meaningful look from there so trying to avoid their gazes and questions…
Abhijeet uttered as: Oh, aap log abhi tk drwazy py hi khary hain, aaien please, ander aaien… (And moving towards the lounge with them, he completed as…) Aap log baithien please, main barf aur first-aid box ly k aata hoon…
And he left towards the kitchen while ACP sir took Freddy in the lounge with himself…
Soon Abhijeet returned in the lounge grabbing both said things where…
ACP sir grabbed them from him with: Main daikhta hoon Freddy ko, tum ja k Daya ko daikho… (Abhijeet tried to resist but ACP sir told him in complete authoritative way as…) Jao…
Abhijeet nodded quietly and throwing a soft look at Freddy to receive a small assuring smile in return, he left towards Daya's room where outside, ACP sir got busy in cleaning and attending Freddy's wound…
Daya's Room…
On the other side, Abhijeet coming in Daya's room, closed his room door behind and ran his gaze in the room to find Daya sitting on the edge of his bed, looking quite disturbed and helpless… Inhaling deeply, Abhijeet stepped towards him and approaching him…
Abhijeet quietly stood beside him with: Daya…!
And as soon as Daya turned his gaze towards him, Abhijeet felt a sharp pain in his heart, seeing his brother's red-puffed up eyes when seeing him there now…
Daya instantly sprang up from the bed with: Freddy, woh kaisa hai ab Abhi…?
Abhijeet nodded assuredly with: Theek hai, zada gehra nahin hai zakham, jaldi theek ho jaye ga…
Daya shook his head in real pain with: Zakham tou bohut gehra hai Abhi, itni jaldi nahin theek ho ga… (Abhijeet went quiet, understanding well that Daya wasn't talking about Freddy's forehead wound but the wound on that innocent-pure man's heart on getting pushed away by his deary Daya sir where Daya dejectedly sat on the bed with a thud with…) Main kya kron Abhi, main yeh sb kya kerta phir raha hoon… Uss din tumhary srr py maar dia itni zoor ka, aaj Freddy ka khoon nikal dia… (And he looked towards his brother who too was sitting beside him now, listening to the younger one telling him helplessly as…) Woh log bell bjja rahy thy kb sy, aur phir tumhary mobile py call bhi aany lggi thi sir ki iss liye mm-main ny ja k drwaza khol dia… (Shook his head to himself while turning his gaze away with…) Mujhy nahin kholna chahiye tha drwaza, yeh…
Abhijeet cut him politely as: Nahin Daya, tu ny drwaza khol k kuchh ghalat nahin kia… (Daya looked at him in real pain where Abhijeet looked in his eyes, completing meaningfully as…) Drwaza bnd ker k ghalat ker raha hai…
Daya looked at him in extreme pain, dropping a salty drop of immense pain in silence where Abhijeet placing hand on his head's back, smoothly pulled him towards himself, wrapping him in a consoling embrace where Daya too had hugged him really tightly, sobbing silently now, clearly getting Abhijeet's indirect mentioning of Daya intentionally avoiding his family…
After a while, seeing Daya calmed down a little, Abhijeet placing a soft kiss on his head had smoothly separated him and…
Abhijeet softly wiping off the moisture from his younger one's face, told him softly as: Ja k fresh ho, shower ly lo I think tum bhi aur phir change ker k bahir aao, Anirudh bhi aata ho ga… (And clearly seeing Daya turning nervous on Anirudh's mentioning, Abhijeet softly pressed his hand supportively as…) Daya hum ny kal baat ki thi na bchcha iss barey mein, hmm…?
Daya nodded while trying to relax himself and assure the elder one with: Mm-main aata hoon thori dair mein… (Abhijeet gave a soft pat on his cheek where Daya completed as…) Tum bhi ab bahir jao Abhi, sir intezar ker rahy hoon gy, main theek hoon ab, don't worry…
Abhijeet nodded while giving an encouraging pat on his back with: Good… (And he stood up with…) Main jata hoon ab bahir lekin tum apna huliya theek ker k aana… (And thinking for a moment, Abhijeet instructed the latter in composed tone as…) Aur Daya… (Daya turned his gaze towards him on that call listening to the elder one adding as…) Chaho tou alarm lgga lo, lekin maximum dus minute sy lamba shower mtt laina… (Daya instantly hid his eyes while turning his face away where Abhijeet asked him in same composed tone as…) Theek hai…?
Daya, still looking away, nodded quietly in assurance where giving a supportive pressure on his shoulder Abhijeet left towards the door, soon leaving the room too, while Daya kept sitting there for a little while longer recalling the previous day when…
Flashback within the Flashback…
After returning from the Bureau, Abhijeet had come in his room to tell him about Sunday's plan which understandably made Daya nervous and…
Abhijeet had tried to assure him with: Itna preshan mtt ho Daya, Monday sy case ki hearing start ho rahi hai bs issi liye Anirudh aik baar tum sy personally baat kerna chahta hai case ko ly ker, halki phulki si discussion hi ho gi bs, case-file mein sb kuchh mention kia hua hi hai already… (And taking a momentary pause, completed meaningfully as…) Aur uss sy zada kisi ko kuchh btana sirf tumhari choice aur tumhara decision hai Daya…
Daya looked at him in shock-filled-silence, getting his meaning really well that in other words Abhijeet had just told him that in that meeting, he could file the case about his molestation too, but only if it was he who wanted to, without any pressure…
Where receiving only silence-filled-supportive-firm look from the other side, Daya turned his gaze away, without saying him anything…
Abhijeet heaving a deep breath dropped the topic while standing, telling him as: Achha utho aur kitchen mein aao, main dinner ki taiyari kerny lgga hoon, tum bhi aa k help kerwao mairi, utho jaldi sy shabash…
Daya nodding to him quietly stood up and followed his brother outside the room, towards the kitchen…
Flashback within the Flashback Ended…
And the ringing of doorbell broke the trail of Daya's thoughts and he unintentionally looked towards the wall-clock to find it already striking 03:00 pm now… Knowing it must be Anirudh outside, Daya inhaled a long deep breath to compose his scattered thoughts and slowly stood up, leaving towards his almirah and then towards the bathroom, taking his mobile with himself too, to set an alarm of ten minutes on it…
Lounge…
Where during the time when Daya was sitting there in the room thinking about the previous day, outside in the lounge, seeing Abhijeet returning from Daya's room…
ACP sir asked him calmly as: Kaisa hai woh…?
Abhijeet tried to assure him as: Theek hai sir… (ACP sir nodded quietly where seeing Freddy missing from the scene, Abhijeet asked him confusingly as…) Freddy kahan hai sir…?
ACP sir replied him in same calm tone as: Guest room mein gaya hai hath dhony aur change kerny, shirt py thora khoon girr gaya tha uss ki, aur wahan Sunil ki shirts prri rehti hain tou unn mein sy aik ly li uss ny mairy kehny py… (Abhijeet nodded understandably while grabbing a seat on the couch now as he had already noticed the first-aid box and other things missing from the lounge, signaling that the two had placed those things back after getting done with Freddy's dressing… When seeing him sitting there quietly now, ACP sir asked him in composed tone as…) Uss rooz tum ny mujhy jhooti kahani suunai thi na Abhijeet…? (Abhijeet looked at him in confusion so he elaborated little teasingly as…) Wohi cupboard ka jam drwaza thora forcefully kholny wali kahani, js k antt mein tumhary maathy py yeh chot aai thi js ka nishan ab bhi hai tumhary maathy py… (Abhijeet had already hid his eyes remembering the story he had told him and others about that wound on his forehead on being asked by them where ACP sir asked him in sure tone as…) Daya ny kia tha na yeh bhi…? (Abhijeet looked towards him trying to deny where ACP sir glared at him stiffly with…) Jhoot mtt bolna bilkul, itna sach tou daikh sakta hoon main ab… (Abhijeet hung his head down again listening to ACP sir asking him as…) Kya hua tha uss rooz, dhakka mara tha kya tumhien bhi uss ny…? (Receiving only silence in reply, he asked him quite strictly as…) Abhijeet tum jawab dy rahy ho ya main Daya sy direct pouchhon…?
Abhijeet looked at him in shock-filled-fear to receive a firm look in return so having no other option…
Abhijeet avoiding looking at him replied quietly as: Alarm clock… (Hurriedly tried to defend his brother in front of their father as…) Woh neend mein drr gaya tha sir, jaan-boojh k nahin kia tha uss ny…
ACP sir gave him a disappointed look with: Ptta hai mujhy yeh baat Abhijeet, jaan ker woh kabhi ker bhi nahin sakta iss tarhan… (Abhijeet got relaxed on that assurance where ACP sir asked him with some pain in his voice as…) Lekin yeh ks cheez ka khof hai ussy Abhijeet jo ab tk nahin nikla…? (Abhijeet looked at him hurtfully where ACP sir added in same pain-filled tone as…) Aaj uss ki sehet daikh k tou main pehly hi preshan ho gaya tha aur baad mein tou uss ny mujhy bilkul hi drra dia hai… (Elaborated in silent tone as…) Main uss din k baad dobara intentionally nahin aaya uss sy milny k teen mahiny bohut lamba samey hota hai qaid mein rehny k liye iss liye shaid ab wapis aany k baad Daya kuchh din akela rehna chahta hai aur iss tarhan shaid uss ki tabiyt bhi jaldi theek ho jaye lekin woh tou mujhy pehly sy bhi zada beemar lg raha hai… (And the same time noticing Freddy returning now, ACP sir changed the direction of their conversation with…) Sahi, tou tum ny kidnapping sy related jo evidences thy woh sb check ker liye hain already, aur woh witnesses, unn ka kya kia hai…?
Abhijeet, who too had composed himself till then, replied while trying to sound casual as: Sir unn ko bhi safe-house mein rakha hua hai, completely underground ker dia hai unn ko kuchh samey k liye…
ACP sir nodded with: Hmm achha ho gaya hai yeh bohut…
And he looked towards his son meaningfully who quietly hid his eyes and trying to avoid that silent-meaningful gaze on himself…
Abhijeet turned towards Freddy with: Tum theek ho ab Freddy…?
Freddy nodded assuredly with: Jee sir… (Tried in light smile as…) Ager khud ko sheeshy mein na daikhon tou ptta bhi nahin chalta k srr py kuchh hai bhi…
Abhijeet smiled humbly with: Thank you… (And tried in light tone as…) Wasey iss shirt mein kafi achhy lg rahy ho tum, Sunil tou bilkul cartoon lgta hai…
Freddy chuckled lightly with: Thank you sir…
Abhijeet smiled softly and the same minute the ringing doorbell grabbed the attentions of all the people present in the home and Abhijeet left to answer the visitor and soon returned in the lounge with Anirudh…
After formal greetings, Abhijeet left to make some arrangement for the tea, followed by Freddy too while in the lounge, ACP sir and Anirudh kept on talking about some light topics, as the two already knew each other personally and it was also ACP sir who had decided to give Daya's case to him…
Soon they were joined by Abhijeet and Freddy again when seeing the tray was having only four teacups in it…
ACP sir asked calmly to Abhijeet as: Daya…?
Abhijeet cleared his throat softly with: Sir woh shower ly raha tha, thori dair mein aaye ga, tb tk uss ki chai thandi ho jati, aur uss ki neend ka bhi thora problem chal raha hai aaj kal tou shaid woh chai peiye ga bhi nahin…
ACP sir nodded leaving the topic there and they started taking their tea with light refreshment in light-casual talk which slowly turned about the case… And they were discussing about the case for some time now when seeing Daya's room door opened, their attentions turned towards him, making Daya nervous, who stopped at his room's doorstep looking almost ready to rush inside again when…
Abhijeet called him in composed tone as: Daya…! (Daya turned his gaze towards him, getting little relaxed where Abhijeet nodded him while communicating through eyes too with…) Aa jao, tumhara hi wait ker rahy thy hum…
Daya nodded little reluctantly and stepping forward soon grabbed the seat beside his brother on the two-seater where…
Abhijeet softly offered his teacup to his brother with: Chai…?
Daya shook his head with: Thanks…
Abhijeet nodded in silent smile while smoothly pulling back the cup and giving a soft-assuring pressure on his hand as he already knew that Daya would be too focused to remain calm and would be having fear too that CID officers present there might caught his nervous body language, that enjoying tea would not be present in his list at the moment and that's why Abhijeet neither had brought a cup for him nor had waited for him on the tea…
Where…
ACP sir's composed voice now grabbed their attentions with: Yeh Anirudh hai Daya… (Daya looked towards ACP sir and then towards the person sitting beside him and they both greeted each other through a head nod, sidewise listening to ACP sir completing as…) Tumhara case yehi court mein present kry ga…
Daya unintentionally hid his eyes instantly listening about the case and then unknowingly looked towards Freddy, whom he was avoiding look at since he came there and…
Daya asked him reluctantly as: Tumhari chot…
Freddy cut him while assuring as: Kuchh bhi nahin hai sir, yunhi halki si kharoch hai, theek ho jaye gi jaldi…
Daya looked at him in hurt-filled-pain as: Sorry yar, woh…
But…
Freddy cut him again with: Kya sir, aap kyun sorry ker rahy hain, mujhy khud dihaan sy khary hona chahiye tha na…
Daya's pain increased even more, getting that pure man's effort of not letting some outsider knew that the cause of that bandage on his forehead was Daya where…
ACP sir taking control of the situation, turned towards Anirudh with: Anirudh ab Daya aa gaya hai tou case ko ly ker tumhien uss sy jo bhi questioning kerni hai, ker lo…
Daya unintentionally gulped down a nervous breath and looked towards his brother receiving an assuring look in return and the two turned their gazes towards…
Anirudh listening to him saying casually as: Questioning tou koe khas nahin hai sir, bs aik baar main pura case Daya ki zaban sy suun'nana chahta hoon…
Daya instantly asked nervously as: Kyun, mm-mairi zaban sy kyun, file mein tou likha hai na sb…?
ACP sir and Freddy were looking confused on Daya's such reaction where Abhijeet was looking worried now, clearly sensing that Daya had started getting anxious now where…
Anirudh nodded calmly in reply as: Daya file mein tou sb likha hai lekin aik baar aap sy bhi sb suun lun ga tou main court mein zada achhy sy case present ker skkon ga…
Daya shook his head while standing with: Mairi statement mein already likha hua hai sb kuchh, mujhy uss sb k barey mein ab aur koe baat nahin kerni…
And he left the spot the same second where…
Abhijeet also stood up to leave behind him with: Daya baat…
But…
ACP sir cut him with: Abhijeet rukko… (Abhijeet stopped there looking at him helplessly where ACP sir stood up with…) Main baat ker k daikhta hoon Daya sy… (Shock-filled-nervousness came in Abhijeet's eyes, clearly sensing the anger behind that calm where ACP sir completed in same apparently calm tone as…) Tum dono, yeh sb cups aur cheezien waghaira kitchen mein rakh aao, yahan shaid papers rakhny hoon case k, kharab ho sakty hain woh…
And ACP sir left from there giving another heated-meaningful look to Abhijeet, who kept standing there for few moments feeling really helpless but knowing that he could do nothing now, he too joined Freddy to clear the center-table while Anirudh was now going through the case file again…
