Daya's Room…
Flashback Within The Flashback Continued…
Shastri's Farmhouse…
Lounge…
Now leaving Daya sitting there like that, Raka grabbed the opened file and checked both letters and after getting satisfied, he placed the marriage certificate in it too and…
Raka turned towards one of the goons with: Yeh file ly ja k Shastri sir ko dy k aao, dehan sy ly k jana tumhari zindagi sy bhi bohut eham hai yeh file…
The goon nodded and grabbing the file, left from there when turning towards Daya now…
Raka casually patted Daya's shoulder with: Utho aur mairy sath aao… (And seeing Daya didn't move at-all, Raka little forcefully pulled him on his feet while grumbling loudly as…) Hye bhagwan, ptta nahin iss ko aik baar mein hi koe baat suunai kyun nahin prrti…
And jerking his head annoyingly he took him with himself in one of the rooms present downstairs and roughly pushing Daya in the room while Raka himself kept standing there on the door step where his goon's could see him…
Raka signaled Daya towards one side with: Woh tumhari sharvani hai, jaldi change ker k taiyar ho jao, Shastri sir aaty hoon gy Amavasya madam ko ly ker… (And in return receiving only a fixed cold look from the other side, Raka asked him rudely as…) Kya haan, ghour kya rahy ho tum yun mujhy…? (Added in angry-teasing tone as…) Ager mujh py aur bahir khary humary unn sb aadmion py hamla ker k aur unn charon ko yahan sy bacha k bhaag nikalny k sapny daikh rahy ho tou neend sy jaag jao sir jee kyun k na hi yeh koe film hai aur na hi tum kisi film k hero aur yun bhi first aur ground floor py jitny bhi aadmi hain, sb k paas sirf stun-guns hain aur ager stun-guns k bharosy tum yahan sy nikl sakty hoty tou pehly hi nikl chukky hoty… (And carelessly removing the gun from his pocket, he showed it to Daya with…) Vishvas na ho tou daikh lo, mairy paas bhi stun-gun hi hai… (Daya scoffed while turning his face away as he highly doubted it that Raka was carrying only a stun-gun with himself, where Raka added in a little offended-heated tone as…) Lekin basement mein jo humary aadmi unn char mehmano ka khayal rakh rahy hain… (Daya looked at him with hard look while Raka nodded to him stiffly with…) Unn k paas woh guns zaror hain jn ki tumhien talash hai lekin wahan tk pohanchna tumhary liye mumkin nahin, aur unhien woh guns dien hi iss liye gae hain k yahan tum ny koe natak kia aur wahan unhon ny tum sy uss natak ki qeemat vasool li… (Looked straight in the latter's eyes with anger-filled-evilness with…) Sooud k sath… (And seeing Daya turning his face away again, looking quite frustrated now, Raka smirked amusingly with…) Vishvas kro Daya tum iss samey khud ko jitna baebss mehsos ker rahy ho na, tum asal mein uss sy kahin zada baebss ho… (And seeing Daya's raged filled gaze again turned towards him now, Raka eyeing him towards the sharvani, ordered him stiffly as…) Ab chup-chap jao aur jo kaha hai woh kro, thori daer mein aa raha hoon main wapis, tumhary liye achha ho ga k tb tk tum ny change ker lia ho…
And giving him a hard look, Raka stepped back and closing the room door, locked it from the outside…
Where inside the room Daya just kicked hardly on the bed's foot-side, expelling his frustration and anger on it and he looked towards the sharvani which felt to him like was laughing amusingly at him and suddenly moving towards it with fast steps, Daya taking the sharvani out from its cloth bag, kept looking at it for few moments with red blazing eyes and with a wave of extreme rage and anger rose in him, he tore that sharvani into tiny pieces, expelling his all anger and rage on something on which he could, and then he just sat there on the floor with a thud, still breathing unevenly and heavily now…
Daya had no idea for how long he kept sitting there like that when…
Raka's enraged voice reached his ears as: Yeh kya kia hai tum ny…? (Daya looked at him with red burning eyes while Raka asked him in same enraged tone as…) Sach mein dimagh kharab hai kya tumhara ya jaanty nahin ho k tumhari iss herket ka kya natija nikl sakta hai, haan…? (And seeing Daya was standing there with his face turned away now, Raka nodded to him stiffly with…) Theek hai, Shastri sir hi theek krien gy ab tumhara dimagh… (And grabbing the piece of the sharvani, he pulled the latter angrily with…) Chalo, tumhara intezar ho raha hai bahir…
And Raka took Daya out in the lounge again where Amavasya in bridal dress was already present and seeing them there now…
Shastri asked Raka in confusion as: Iss ny change kyun… (And he stopped in anger seeing Raka quietly forwarding the torn piece of the sharvani and Shastri nodded while addressing Raka though looking at Daya, adding in heated tone as…) Basement mein ly k jana iss ko yahan sy…
Raka knowing what he was up-to, nodded evilly with: Sir…
Where Daya, who was looking away earlier, got confused and also alarmed listening to that order as he knew now that the hostage family was also kept in the basement and Shastri was now taking the risk of taking Daya there too, and he turned his gaze towards Shastri hoping to get some answer of his confusion when seeing himself getting the latter's attention…
Shastri praised him mockingly as: Tumhary sign aur handwriting check kerwa li hai main ny, achha lgga daikh ker k tum ny koe chalaki nahin ki… (And seeing Daya's facial expressions turning hard now, Shastri smirked at him with…) Ya keh lo k main ny tumhien chalaki kerny ka koe moqqa nahin dia… (Taking a step forward towards him, Shastri looked straight in the latter's eyes heatedly with…) Aur na hi main aagy tumhien koe moqqa dun ga Daya, iss liye ager basement mein jany ka suun k tum koe sapny sjjany lggy ho tou bhool jao, kyun k main hamesha tum sy aik qadam aagy ka sochta hoon… (And he mockingly patted his cheek with…) Samjhy jamai babu…?
Resulted Daya roughly pushed his hand away and that act earned him a hard slap on his face and…
Amavasya's panicked voice instantly rose as: Dad…!
But she stopped right there, receiving a red-burning look from her father and she quietly stepped back where…
Shastri turning towards Daya again, chewed angrily as: Rassi jll gae lekin bll nahin gaye… (And moving closed to him, Shastri roughly grabbing Daya's face, squeezed it angrily with…) Nikl jaien gy tumhary yeh sb kss-bll bhi bs thori daer aur intezar ker lo tum… Teer ki tarhan seedha na ker dia tumhien tou maira naam bhi Shastri Raizada nahin… (And roughly freeing his face with a jerk, Shastri stepped back, still looking at him burningly with…) Amavasya yahan aao aur Raka thali mungwao… (And he warned Daya angrily as…) Aur tum ab koe aur natak kerny ka sochna bhi mtt, maira dimagh pehly hi bohut ghooma hua hai iss samey, aik baar uss larki ki zindagi bachany mein kamyab ho gaye ho tum lekin qismet baar baar meherban nahin hoti, samjhy…?
Daya just inhaled deeply, clearly getting the threat for that little doll's life and clutching his hands in tight fists he kept looking away while in the meantime Amavasya reaching there was now standing beside Shastri when one of Shastri's men stood beside the three while holding a big Thali in his hands that was having two varmalas, a vermilion box and a mangalsutra placed in it and…
Shastri asked plainly as: Raka camera taiyar hai…? (Daya listening to that instantly looked towards his side to find Raka standing there with a camera and Daya could only inhale an enraged breath as a response of it where Shastri addressed his other goon with…) Tum kya Thali pakry khary ho yahan, table py rakho Thali aur frame sy bahir jao… (And he announced loudly to his men as…) Tum logon mein sy kisi ki prchhai bhi ager kisi aik tasveer mein bhi dikh gae mujhy tou woh dobara iss dharti py nahin dikhy ga kisi ko, peichhy htto sb… (The goons obeyed him instantly when now turning towards the three goons who didn't move, Shastri instructed them stiffly as…) Tum log kya buutt baney khary ho yahan, curtain kholo, cover kro background sb… (And getting instant obedience from them, Shastri turned towards Raka with…) Raka check kro, sb theek hai…?
Raka looked the arrangement through the lens of the camera with: Jee sir, frame mein sirf aap teeno aur yeh table aa raha hai, aur background completely covered hai iss red curtain sy, inn tasveeron k zariye koe yahan tk kabhi nahin pohanch paaye ga sir…
Shastri nodded proudly with: Good… (And completely turning his attention towards Daya now, he instructed him in apparently calm-though-teasing tone as…) Mahurat ka samey ho gaya hai Daya sir… (And grabbing the varmala from the Thali, he little forcefully grabbed that in Daya's hands while adding as…) Tou ab shadi ki baqi rasmien puri ker k… (And now softly grabbing the other varmala in Amavasya'a hands, he continued as…) Iss vivah ko pura kro… (And standing beside Amavasya now, he turned towards Daya with…) Puri khushi sy… (Daya looked at him burningly while Shastri smirked at him evilly with…) Jaldi kro bhae, kyun k ager yeh shubh-ghari nikl gae tou agli ghari tumhary iss nazuk sy dil k liye bohut ashubh ho sakti hai, hmm…
Daya gulping down an enraged breath and closing his eyes for few moments, inhaled deeply to calm down himself and opening his eyes, without giving himself any time to think, he, the same moment wore that varmala to Amavasya and the same minute completed all the remaining rituals while feeling nothing but hate, anger and rage for them, especially towards her…
When turning towards Amavasya now…
Shastri taking her in a side-hug, asked her smilingly as: So, happy now, my lifeline…?
Amavasya smiled shyly with: Very… (And she hugged him tightly with…) Thank you Dad, you are the best…
Shastri chuckled and then placing a soft kiss on her head, moved her back while telling her softly as: Okay baita, ab aap jao aur ja k change ker k rest…
Amavasya cut him looking restless with: Lekin Dad…
Shastri cut her calmly with: Amavasya, just a little more patience my child… (And glancing over Daya who was trying his best to look completely disconnected from all that, Shastri turned towards Amavasya again with…) I need to make sure k Daya dobara sapny mein bhi yahan sy nikalny ki koshish na kry… (Asked her in soft smile as…) You want that too nah…? (Amavasya nodded shyly so he nodded her back with…) So go now, let me finish my unfinished business…
Amavasya nodded and shyly glancing over Daya, left from there the same minute when wearing hard look on his face again…
Shastri turned towards Raka with: Basement mein ly k jao iss ko…
Raka nodded and stepping forward, roughly pulling Daya's arms, cuffed them on his back and after blindfolding him, took him with himself…
Basement…
A Small Stinky Room…
Raka directly took Daya in a small stinky dark room in the basement and opening his handcuffs, cuffed his one hand with a chain hanging there and then removing the blindfold, Raka completely moved back…
Daya opening his eyes and adjusting his vision was trying to look in the dark when…
Shastri's commanding voice reached his ears as: Bulb on kro…
And second's later a yellow colored light bulb switched on there and Daya found Shastri standing there on the doorstep with his goons and…
Shastri looked at Raka with: Jao aur jaldi aao…
Raka nodded and smirking at Daya, left from there where now completely turning towards Daya…
Shastri exhaled heavily with: Main ny tumhien aaram sy samjhany ki koshish ki thi Daya lekin baat tumhari samajh mein aai nahin aur tum uss kamry sy nikl gaye… (Nodded in arrogance with…) Ghalati mairy logon ki bhi thi aur unhien uss ghalati ki szza mil bhi gae hai… (And he looked at the latter stiffly with…) Aur ghalati tum ny bhi ki uss kamry sy nikl k aur dobara easi ghalati na ho tum sy, iss liye zarori hai k tumhien pehli ghalati py hi szza mil jaye…
Daya replied in fake shocked tone as: Tou abhi lounge mein jo sb fazool bkwas hue, woh szza nahin thi kya…? (Shastri fumed in rage while Daya smirked at him mockingly with…) It did felt like a gruesome punishment to me…
Shastri chewed out angrily with: You are such an ungrateful brat Daya…
Daya repeated him mockingly with: Ungrateful brat…? (Chuckled amusingly with…) Daya ko tum py daya aa rahi hai Shastri, aik hi olad aur woh bhi easi… Lekin samajh sakta hoon main k baap hony k naaty apni baiti ki shadi k sapny daikhy hoon gy tum ny, tou kya hua ager kisi ko kidnap ker k, kisi ko gunpoint py rakh k apna yeh sapna pura kia hai tum ny, ab dosri tarhan koun uss pagal psycho sy shadi…
Shastri cut him in extreme rage as: Bkwas bnd kro tum apni, main tumhara mun toor dun ga Amavasya k khilaf koe bkwas ki tou… (Daya kept looking at him in mocking smile where Shastri added angrily with…) Bohut proposals thy mairi baiti k liye, ministers k, bureaucrats, high-profilers, ptta nahin ks ks k lekin qismet kharab thi mairi k sari duniya chhor k woh aik easey insan sy mohabbat ker baithi js ko khud uss k khoon k rishton ny thokkar maar k apni zindagion sy bahir phaink dia tha… (Daya's facial expressions had already turned stiff now where Shastri added in same disgust-filled-anger as…) Mairi baiti k khilaf zaban kholny sy pehly apny grriban mein jhaank ker daikho k tum khud kya ho… (Chewed with hate-and-rage as…) Kisi ki aik raat ki bhool ki nishani ho tum Daya, aik gunah, samjhy tum…?
Daya had already turned his face away with his teeth clutched tightly and his hands closed in tight fists as his effort to appear strong and collected though deep down, his wounds had already started bleeding now as it was not the first time he had heard just poisonous words for himself, but each time such words hit and hurt him with the same intensity, causing him to re-live the same pain all over again, though this time he used every last strand of his power to keep his eyes dry…
When moments' later…
An unfamiliar voice reached his ears as: Saab mujhy jany doo, mujhy chhor doo…
And Daya turned his confused gaze towards the door step as the crying voice was coming closer now when seconds' later Raka reappeared in the room with a man and Daya instantly recognized the man as the kids' father, making him both worried and shocked and before he could react something…
Shastri's voice reached his ears as: Ab tumhien direct szza tou dy nahin sakta main Daya iss liye indirect szza ka intezam kia hai main ny…
The man started pleading to Daya as: Saab, saab mujhy bacha lo saab, mairy bchchy bohut chhoty hain saab, mujhy bacha lo…
Daya somehow coming back in senses, turned his gaze towards Shastri with: Shastri yeh sb kya hai…? Tum ny kaha tha k ager main woh kron ga jo tum kaho gy tou tum inhien koe nuqsan nahin pohanchao gy…
Shastri nodded agreeably with: Exactly Daya, main ny kaha tha k ager tum woh kro gy jo main kahon ga tou inhien koe nuqsan nahin pohanchy ga, lekin kya tum ny woh kia…? (Added in same cold-still tone as…) Aik tou mairy itna strictly mnna kerny k baad bhi pehla moqqa milty hi yahan sy bhaag nikalny ki koshish ki tum ny, uss ki szza tou main ny tumhien daini hi thi… Aur phir main ny tumhien kaha k yeh kamry change ker k dosry pehen lo aur tum ny apni sb baebssi uss sharvani py nikal di… Main ny kaha k tumhari shadi hai bhae, thora khush nazar aao… (Added in amused smile as…) Aur tum ny cheese tk nahin kaha… (And the very next moment, turning angry again, added as…) Aur oper sy tumhari yeh qainchi ki tarhan chalti zaban, js py tumhien koe qabbu nahin hai… (And exhaled heavily sidewise pulling out his gun and playfully rubbing his index finger on the gun's barrel with…) Iss liye ab jb tum sy aik bohut mazbot rishta jurr gaya hai, tou mujhy yeh baat bhi tou make sure kerni ho gi na k tum mairi baat bhi suuno aur dobara yahan sy nikalny ki koshish kabhi na kro, kmm-sy-kmm iss janam mein tou bilkul nahin…
And seeing Shastri putting the bullet in the gun now…
Daya hurriedly tried to stop him with: Shastri nahin, chhor doo iss ko, main nahin koshish kron ga dobara kabhi yahan sy nikalny ki aur jaisa tum kaho gy waesa kron ga lekin iss ka koe dosh nahin hai iss sb mein, please chhor doo iss ko…
Shastri smirked at him playfully with: Sorry my dear, too little, too late…
Daya uttered in panic tone as: Shastri please, bhagny ki koshish main ny ki thi na, tou tumhien jo bhi szza daini hai mujhy doo, iss ko chhor doo please…
Shastri smiled evilly with: Ager samjho tou szza tou main tumhien hi dy raha hoon Daya…
And he placed the gun's barrel on the still pleading man's head's backside where Daya looked at the man in panic-filled-helplessness sidewise vigorously trying to somehow free his cuffed hand and still asking Shastri to stop when feeling Shastri pulling back the gun's hammer now…
The man looked at Daya with teary eyes with: Saab ho skky tou mairy priwar ko bcha laina…
Making Daya stopped at his place while a drop slipped from his eye feeling extremely helpless and before he could turn to Shastri again, a gunshot echoed in the room and Daya just inhaled a sharp breath, getting froze on his place seeing the man's lifeless body slowly coming down on the floor now with Daya's stunned gaze following him and hitting his back with the wall behind, Daya too slowly slumped down on the floor with tears rolling down on his cheeks now, seeing the man's hope-filled eyes were still fixed on Daya and he could do nothing to save him…
When Daya came out from his hurt-filled-shocked phase with someone roughly pulling his face up and pain-filled-anger lit in Daya's eyes seeing Shastri there while…
Shastri told him angrily as: Kaha tha na tumhari himmet aur akrr, sb toor dun ga main… (And roughly freeing his face with a jerk, Shastri inhaling deeply, added in pride-filled-cold tone as…) Tumhary bhagny ki szza mili hai issy Daya, dobara bhagny ka socha bhi tou bohut live-stock hai humary paas… Tumhary karen kisi aur begunah ki jaan jaye, easa tou tum nahin chaho gy, hai na…?
Daya while looking at the man's body, uttered in extreme pain-filled-audible whispered tone as: Tum insan nahin ho Shastri, raakshas ho tum, aik darindy, aik haiwan…
Shastri chucked causally as: Well, I didn't take it personally… (And grabbing Daya's hair, pulled his head back and looked in his eyes with rage-filled eyes with…) But only for this time, understand…? (And roughly freeing his hair with a little forceful jerk that resulted Daya's head hit with the wall behind, Shastri moved back with…) Tumhary iss garam dimagh aur bae-lggam zaban ko abhi mazeed elaj ki zarorat hai Daya, aur mairy paas woh elaj hai… (And he turned towards Raka with…) Body ko uthany ki zarorat nahin hai aur na hi iss ko yahan sy nikalny ki, drwaza lock kro bahir sy aur mairi permission k baghair yeh lock khulna nahin chahiye…
Raka nodded confidently with: Sir…
Shastri nodding him back, turned towards Daya who was looking completely uninterested from whatever happening around him, still looking quite distressed with that innocent man got murdered in front of his eyes and he could do nothing to prevent it when…
Shastri told him in plain tone as: Tum dobara apny hath sy yeh chain nikalny ki nakaam koshish mtt kerna, pehly hi apni bewakoofi sy apna hath zakhmi ker lia hai tum ny… (And sighing heavily, added in casual tone as…) Achha hua k Amavasya yahan nahin hai warna baekar mein preshan ho jati tumhary hath sy yeh khoon nikalta daikh k… (Daya looked at him with hate-filled-rage while Shastri signaled him towards the body with…) Mujhy nahin bl k apni hoshiyari dikhany k chakker mein hony waly iss nuqsan ko achhy sy daikh lo tum, aur iss ka chehra apny dimagh mein bitha lo ta k agli baar koe bhi hoshiyari kerny ka sochny sy bhi pehly tumhari aankhon k samny iss nirdosh insan ka chehra zaror aaye jo sirf tumhary karen aaj iss duniya mein, apny privar, apny bchchon k sath nahin hai…
And throwing a heated look at Daya, who was already looking away in extreme pain and regret, Shastri left from there followed by his men while Raka closing the room's door, locked it from the outside…
Where inside the room…
Daya looked towards the man's opened eyes with tear-filled eyes, whispering in extreme pain as: I am sorry, I am sorry, na main bhaagta na mairy karen tumhary masoom bchchy annat hoty, I am sorry, mujhy maaf ker daina please… (And he in pain rested his forehead on his knees while wrapping his arm around his legs, whispering in broken-teary tone as…) Maaf ker daina mujhy…
And he remained sitting there like that, crying silently with mixed emotions of helplessness, pain, hate, rage, anger, misery, and others…
Daya had lost the count of seconds, minutes or hours and when the next time the room's door opened, it had already passed three whole nights and three days with Daya locked in a room with a dead-body in it…
And Raka had found Daya present there in a semi-conscious state because of not having even a drop of water for the whole three days and…
Raka moving forward checked his sinus and exhaled a relaxed breath with: Zinda hai… (And opening Daya's tied injured hand, added as…) Tum teeno iss lash ko utha k bahir phainko, kitni bddboo aa rahi hai iss sy, srr gae hai sari… Aur Kalu ja k Govind ko bolo hum Daya ko ly k aa rahy hain uss k paas… (And seeing Kalu leaving to obey the order, Raka turning towards the remaining three men, ordered them as…) Uthao issy, ly k chalo oper…
And Daya felt himself moving out from the room now…
And after few minutes he felt himself lying down on some soft material with some faint-distant voices present around him and he flinched feeling like a needle pierced in his hand but he felt himself too weak and tired to react or resist anything and when did he completely went into a deep sleep, he had no idea…
The Room Daya was Locked-In…
Daya had no idea for how long he had been under the effects of sedatives that were entered in his blood stream through the drip given to him few hours back and now slowly returning into conscious state, Daya opening his eyes and adjusting his vision tried to look where he was to find himself present in the same room, he had found himself the first time he had opened his eyes in that farmhouse…
Inhaling a deep silent breath, Daya was going to sit when flinched feeling pain in his left arm and he knew it was because of remaining locked and in the same position for three whole days while there was a bandage also present on his left wrist…
When a voice attracted his attention…
Asking him calmly as: Help chahiye tumhien…?
And Daya turned his gaze in the direction of the voice to find Shastri present there, casually closing the magazine he was reading earlier…
Daya without replying him anything, turned his face away and slowly got seated on his own when feeling something, Daya slowly removed the sheet from his feet to find a chain tied around his foot while the other end of the chain was tied with a hook fixed in the floor and noticing his focus…
Shastri uttered casually as: One can never be too careful, isn't it…? (Again silence in reply so Shastri shrugged with…) Anyway, umeed hai k inn teen dinon ny tumhara dimagh bohut achhy sy theek ker dia ho ga, baqi weakness hai tumhien abhi thori, aik doo din mein theek ho jaye gi… Aur ab utho aur ja k shower lo, aur yeh laash waly kapry phainko bahir, aur dobara mujhy kabhi iss hdd tk jany k liye majbor mtt kerna tum, uth jao ab…
Daya, who was already feeling completely mentally and physically drained at the moment because of the grueling ordeal he had survived, slowly stood up and left towards the bathroom, as he too was feeling the need of taking a long warm shower and was also hoping that it would save him from Shastri's talks…
Entering in the bathroom, Daya found the same sharvani, he had crumbled earlier was hanging there for him and exhaling tiredly, Daya closed the bathroom door to take a much needed long warm shower…
After taking shower and feeling quite better now, Daya dressed in that sharvani because of having no other option returned in the room to find the fragrance of Floor Cleaner still spread in the room while the bedsheet was also changed now and there was a meal-tray present there and Shastri was missing from the room now…
Moving back towards the bed, Daya sitting on the bed dragged the meal-tray towards himself and took the folded paper from there that read as "Ab sy jb tum khana kha lia kro gy tou unn ko khana mil jaya kry ga" and easily understanding what that message meant, he again looked towards the meal-tray and crumbling the folded paper in his hand, he punched hardly on the bed, to express his frustration and helplessness, though soon got busy in obeying what he was asked to-do…
Daya was sitting there on the edge of the bed with his tied leg hanging down on the floor and his head rested on the headrest while he was looking far away in space, wondering how much his life got changed in just few days and thinking that could he ever be able to escape that life or not when listening to some voice, Daya looked in the direction of the door to find Raka standing there while one of his men was already headed towards the bed to grab the tray while the other one was headed towards the bathroom and he soon returned having Daya's clothes in a bin-bag now, and seeing his men leaving now…
Raka turned towards Daya casually with: Pehly hi itny aaram sy baat maan laity tou shaid itna na sehna perta tumhien…
Daya replied nothing and just closed his eyes to soon feel that the voices had stopped again and he silently wiped off the drop slipped from his eye, remembering the same hope-filled eyes again…
