updated early, as want to complete this story ASAP but whenever think about it, keep on finding so much still left to wrap, ptta nahin sb kb aur kaisy ho ga… (O.o) Hahahahahahaha yeah yar, I too struggled a little to shift to the present so suddenly as I had no pre-mind made-up of shifting to the present before completing Amavasya-Daya track but two friends tried to shift my attention to the fact that that Flashback had got quite long, looked like this time I was too deeply focused on finishing that track that had lost track of the length, hehehe, now I'm thinking of merging the remaining part of that track with court's track, as need to address another track now, looks like, yeh story mujhy pagal ker dy gi, hahahahahaha… :P :D Hahaha too cute interpretation yar, and thoroughly enjoyed the link you developed between your situation and Abhijeet sir's, haha, I really enjoyed that, hugs… :-* Hahahahahahahahahaha glad knowing love that you found it pleasant seeing Sunil with his loving chai, hahaha, soft kiss on your forehead… :-* Means a lot Boss, much humbled… :-* Thank you deary for liking the nok-jhok of both buddies, deeply humbled, hugs… :-* Indeed Boss, I too agree with you and Sunil at that point, hahaha, khush raho hamesha aap… :-* :-* Thank you sweetheart for liking the chances Abhijeet sir is giving to his younger one for coming out from his fear, means a lot, hugs… :-* Hahahahahaha thank you love for making me see my cutie sy cutie-pie Shirarti Daya sir's that act of placing that paper-pad there in completely different way, now I just can't un-see that, hahaha, it is too sweet, cute and innocent interpretation of that whole scene for me, such like my Daya sir, hehe, so thank you for me see all that, this way, khush raho hamesha aap, much love to you… :-* :-* Tighttttt squeezing comforting hug for you deary, much love to you… :-* Okays Boss, so now coming towards the questions, so yups, Daya sir used to see Shastri's face in all male faces, including his own, and Amavasya's in all females… Like that day in the hospital where Abhijeet sir had taken him directly after rescuing him for the second time, there getting scared from Tasha, he went in the bathroom to hide, there between the lines or the hidden or actual reason of his breaking that mirror was seeing Shastri's face in his own, then later after finding some sharp object near him, he had decided to ruin his face and body as his effort to protect himself from that evil… And about the treatment and medicines and stuff, so yups Boss, those things have recovered him that much that he no-more sees Shastri's face in male faces anymore, like he sees Abhijeet sir's face but just can't recognize him as Abhi you know, and he started recognizing Abhijeet sir's face only after he become the frequent visitor of his room from months now, as he regularly used to come in-front of him, spent time with him and hence Daya got familiarize with that new face, can't say what will happen with Sunil though... ;) :P About showing him the photos of his or the team so I am not sure if I was able to convey that hidden or between the lines thing or not but I have never showed Abhijeet sir coming in-front of Daya in his that typical Senior Inspector Abhijeet dressing, his that formal wear he used for Bureau, as whenever he comes in Daya sir's room, he was always in casuals and yes, of-course there is a reason for that and the same reason is for the photos thing, as you see yar, even now Daya sir is thinking himself kept there as hostage and he cannot recognize faces of anyone, means earlier his condition was much worse and even now, Abhijeet sir is trying his best to build that relation of trust between himself and Daya sir and not to lose all his efforts to any abrupt move, he is moving very slowly but steadily, so now coming to your question, earlier showing him those photos or telling him their true identities could be useless as Daya sir's mental health was far worse to understand or make sense of anything and now, believing on some other reality so firmly like Sunil had said that Daya sir's believe on those monsters visiting him is so firm and strong that if Abhijeet sir would show him their photos or would directly tell him anything about their real identities at the moment, it could come as a huge shock for Daya sir and no-one knows what it could do to his brain and how would he take it as it can be very risky, hence no-one is taking that risk, they all need for Daya sir to figure out their real identities by himself, Daya sir needs to recognize them using all the hints they are giving him, it's important for his mental recovery, it's the same reason because of which Abhijeet sir never told him his name but is constantly giving him hints by treating him the same way, he always used to… :))) Hope this has answered your question love, still any confusion, please feel free to ask, much love to you… :-* Hahahahaha well this chapter will answer your these queries about Sunil and Daya sir's meeting, hehe, hugs… :-* Hahahahahaha hopefully that time will come soon yar, loads of love to you, khush raho hamesha aap, hugs… :-* Thank you sooooo very much love for all your appreciation on the stories and these characters, truly truly means a lot to me yar, seriously, I am deeply humbled and really glad you shared that with me, tighttttt squeezing elephant power hug for you, much love to you… :-* :-* Thanks a ton love for liking The Wish this much and appreciating Daya sir's diary in the story, really means a lot to me yar, that story is really close to my heart too so all this appreciation on that hit really different to me, deeply humbled I am love, tightttt squeezing warmth filled hug for you, wish you a happy contented life, much love to you… :-* :-* Thanks a lot love for all your beautiful duas, I am overwhelmed, much humbled love and much love to you… :-* :-* Thanks a lot dear, keep smiling and stay

Present…
DUO's Home…
Daya's Room…
Both brothers were now waiting for the door to get opened, one in nervous-scare and the other one in hope-filled-restlessness while outside Sunil was preparing to move in the room and was just gulping down a glass of water to control over his racing heart when inside the room, getting an idea…
Abhijeet requested to Daya between heavy breaths as: Daya…! (Making Daya looked towards him with same nervous-scared gaze as a response of the call while Abhijeet continued as…) Tum please aawaz dy doo gy ussy…? (Outside Sunil, whose hand was on the door-knob now, and inside Daya, whose eyes had widened in real shock-filled-scare, completely paused at their places, while Abhijeet completed in same low-pitched tone as…) Mairi aawaz shaid bahir ja nahin paa rahi, please, thori ounchi aawaz dy doo ussy tum…
Daya nervously licking his dry lips, looked towards the room door and then towards Abhijeet, like was hoping he would change his request to find him still groaning in pain with his face buried in his hand now and gulping down a nervous breath…
Daya nervously wiping off the sweat from his face, asked him in reluctant-nervousness as: Kk-kya-kya bulaon ussy…?
Abhijeet smiling secretly, replied with loads of care present in his voice as: Dost… (Outside Sunil was completely silent on his place where inside Abhijeet pretending to somehow open his eyes, looked towards Daya's silent gaze and easily got that he too had remembered someone with that word, hence repeated himself politely as…) Doctor dost…
Daya, who was looking really silent now, nodded to him hesitantly with his mind already somewhere else now and throwing a nervous-silent glance at the room-door…
Daya inhaled a long deep breath to gather up his courage and closed his eyes as his effort to somehow envision that well-known someone that came into his mind on listening to that term and uttered quite aloud as: Dost… Doc-doctor dost…?! (Outside a salty pearl of pain-mixed-with-happiness silently slipped down from his doctor dost's eye which he swiftly wiped off where inside, a moist smile formed on Abhijeet's face while Daya continued in same flow, with his eyes still closed as…) Tt-tumhary dost ko kuchh ho gaya hai, doctor dost…?!
And then getting quiet, he opened his eyes, only to realize his unsteady fast breaths and wiping off sweat from his face, he looked towards Abhijeet worriedly and then again nervously glanced over the room-door seeing no-one coming while…
Abhijeet uttered in supportive-polite tone as: Thank you Daya…
Daya looked at him little-nervously-little-restlessly as: Dd-dost tou aa nahin raha tumhara…? (Nervously licking his dry lips, asked him in innocent-nervousness with…) Dd-dobara bulaon…?
Abhijeet slightly shook his head, understanding well why Sunil was delayed, replied as: Medical-kit la raha ho ga apni, aa jaye ga thori daer mein…
Daya could just nod while throwing a silent-nervous glance at the room-door, unknown of the fact that on the other side of that very door, his dost was struggling to keep himself together and hence was taking time to move in the room…
When finally inhaling a long-deep breath, and slowly exhaling it, Sunil calming down his emotions, grabbed the door-knob again and soon the room's door slowly opened, resulted Daya instantly sprang up from his place, looking absolutely anxious and scared now and hence had squeezed himself bit more in the corner, seeing the new-face appearing from the room-door, making Daya's limbs literally trembling in fear now and he was completely dipped in sweat, seeing the person coming inside with the medical-bag present in his hand…
Where on the other side, to indirectly relax him, Sunil had completely ignored Daya, to-do which he had used every last bit of his will-power and hence not even once looking towards the side Daya was standing like that whole side was invisible to him, he had directly made his way towards Abhijeet, who was still groaning in low tone, pretending to-be in pain and…
Sunil while sitting in front of him, asked him in concern-filled-little-shaky voice as: Kya ho gaya hai tumhien yun…
And he stopped with Abhijeet softly grabbing his hand, pretending to hold it because of being in pain but in real, Abhijeet had grabbed his hand to support and encourage him, easily noticing the slight shiver in Sunil's hand because of his current emotional state…
As even though being a psychiatrist Sunil had much control over his emotions but he was a human too and hence at some points was emotionally vulnerable like the present moment, where he was feeling quite overwhelmed with the situation and needed some support and his friend was there to provide him that…
When feeling quite reassured now…
Sunil assuring the latter through eyes, smoothly pulled back his hand from the latter's soft-understanding grip and started opening his medical-bag with: Achanak sy hua kya hai tumhien, dard zada ho raha hai kya…?
Abhijeet nodded while continuing his acting with: Haan yar, ptta nahin kya ho gaya aik dmm sy, lg raha hai jaisy srr phtt raha hai bilkul, teessien uth rahi hain dard ki…
Sunil nodded while giving him a Calcium tablet with: Achha relax, gehry sanss lo tum aur sb sy pehly yeh aik pain-killer ly lo ta k tumhara dard thora control ho, phir main tumhari yeh dressing uttar k check kerta hoon zakham… (Abhijeet nodded and gulped down the tablet with the water from the water-bottle Sunil had brought with himself while Sunil whispered quite quietly as…) Relax hua hai thora…?
As Sunil's back was towards Daya so he couldn't see him while Abhijeet quietly hummed from behind the water-bottle because he was able to see Daya and hence was quite alert from his side, though was showing himself completely busy with Sunil where on the other side, blood had slowly started returning on Daya's face and his trembling was nearly completely gone too, but he was still standing, squeezed in the corner with his eyes glued on Abhijeet, looking quite alert towards whatever that doctor dost was doing with his thora thora dost…
When now wearing the Latex gloves…
Sunil started taking off the dressing from near the latter's eye with: Thora dard ho ga tumhien, so try to relax, gehry sanss laity raho aur koshish kerna k khud ko calm rakho, Okay…?
Abhijeet nodded while obeying where Sunil carefully removing the dressing was now actually busy in examining the wound when Abhijeet in real, flinched in pain while unintentionally slightly moving back too and before the two could react on that…
Another worried voice, sounding bit angry too, rose from the room's corner with: Dheery sy kro na tum, thora aaram sy…
Making both friends looked towards each other with one having hidden smile playing in his eyes and the other one having deep-warm smile on his face and…
Sunil, still without turning towards Daya, uttered while making his voice calm-and-professional with: Sorry…
Making Daya turned his displeased gaze from the incompetent doctor towards his known-stranger like was asking if it was Okay to accept that Sorry or not while…
Abhijeet turned his gaze towards the younger one assuredly with: Main theek hoon Daya, relax, aur baith jao tum bhi, sb theek hai, hmm…?
Daya nodded while wiping off the sweat from his face and slowly sat there, though his breaths were still unsteady and was still looking quite distressed…
Where on the other side…
Sunil, who was done examining the condition of the wound, looked towards Abhijeet in concern, sidewise cleaning the wound with: Dard ho raha hai kahin…?
And understanding well that the latter wanted the real answer this time…
Abhijeet slightly shook his head assuredly with: Nahin, bs tbhi hua tha, ab theek hai bilkul…
Sunil nodded getting satisfied from his side and as had already applied the medicine on the wound, hence now started applying the new dressing on his wound with: Hmm good, lekin ehtiyat kerni hai tum ny puri, koshish kerna k dhoop mein na phiro zada aur haan, cholhy k paas, aag k paas jany ko bhi avoid kerna filhal, redness aur swelling hai abhi bhi, so it's better to take proper precautionary measures, na hi zada sweating ho aur na hi direct heat lggy ghaow py, Okay…?
Abhijeet nodded uninterestedly knowing Sunil's doctor's mode had turned on and he was actually instructing him to follow all those cautions, half of which Abhijeet had already forgot, but no worries, with Sunil present there with him, there were very bright chances of him keep on helping Abhijeet to remember those instructions if, or one should say, whenever would found him distracting from them, as it was looking like, Abhijeet would be under strict radar of his doctor friend from now on…
When quietly glancing over Daya to find himself not the focus of him at the moment, as after getting seated, psychologically Daya's tensed-nervous body-language had got little calm now and his gaze was no-more fixed at the two, though in regular intervals he was throwing reluctant-concerned glances over the elder one and was still quite alert from his side, where noticing him looking away at the moment, Abhijeet seizing the opportunity, quickly eyed Sunil towards the syringe, who very subtly nodded to him in assurance and…
Sunil, sidewise taking out the cotton swab and grabbing the spirit bottle, added deliberately a little aloud to-be clearly heard in the other corner of the room too as: Aur main tumhien aik injection bhi dy raha hoon… (And a relaxed smile appeared in Abhijeet's eyes who was looking towards Daya from the corner of his eyes, and hence had seen how quickly Daya's gaze had turned towards the two on listening to those words while Sunil completed as…) Antibiotic ka, ta k kisi qisem ki infection ya fever waghaira hony k sb chances bhi khatam ho jaien…
Abhijeet nodded casually in assurance and started pulling up his T-shirt's sleeve, sidewise remaining vigilant from Daya's side too, as Abhijeet's eyes had caught something else too, where Daya had already completely turned towards them now and was sitting there with his enraged-red eyes fixed on Sunil's hands, seeing him now rubbing the spirit-dipped-cotton-swab on Abhijeet's arm… And it looked like every pore of Daya's body came on red-alert, seeing Sunil getting busy in preparing the injection now, and noticing after removing any air-bubbles from the syringe, Sunil had extended his hand in which he was holding the syringe towards Abhijeet's arm…
Daya's anger-filled-panic voice rose from the other end with: Rr-rukko, rukk jao… (Both friends looked towards each other in hidden satisfaction with the two had already pulled back their arms, pretending to-be confused while Daya already standing now, asked the doctor in worry-filled-rage as…) Kyun, kyun injection dy rahy ho tum issy, theek tou hai yeh bilkul… (And he turned towards Abhijeet in same anger and snubbed him with…) Aur tum, tum kyun maan gaye ho injection lainy k liye…? (Asked him in disgust-filled-pain as…) Ptta nahin hai kya tumhien kitny gandy hoty hain yeh injections, kitny kharab…? (Signaled him towards the doctor in same pain-filled-panic-and-hate as…) Dost, dost nahin hai yeh koe tumhara, ganda hai, yeh bhi ganda hai, achhy dost injection nahin daity, yeh ganda hai…
Abhijeet was going to calm him down, to assure him when…
Sunil assured him calmly as: Relax, let me please…
Abhijeet could just nod in silence as their ultimate goal of doing all that drama in-front of Daya was to bring both Daya and Sunil in contact with each other and if it was how it was meant to-be, then let it be…
Where inhaling deeply while giving an assuring nod to the worried-silent soul, Sunil stood up while reminding himself to-be a doctor only to make that interaction successful with the latter, and he turned towards Daya, finally for the first time acknowledging his presence in the room and making any direct contact with him…
Where Daya, though still looking angry and in pain, had also started looking little scared and anxious now and had un-deliberately stepped back a little, though was still standing there and was trying his best not to move his gaze away from the doctor's face while…
Sunil asked him in complete calm as: Medicine k barey mein thori basic know-how hai kya tumhien…? (And receiving only an anger-filled-little-nervous-restless look from the other end, Sunil thinking for a moment, smoothly tossed the vial, he moments' before had emptied in the syringe, towards Daya with…) Catch… (Making Daya, as an instant reaction, caught the vial, giving hidden happiness to both the persons present there where composing himself well in time, Sunil completed in same calm-composed tone as…) Perho, kya likha hai iss py Daya…?
Daya, already looking too concerned to read the details written on the vial, started reading them where Abhijeet was looking little shocked now, as it was just revealed to him that Sunil was not pretending but was actually going to give him the injection of antibiotic and Abhijeet really cursed his friend in his mind, understanding well that taking the advantage of that whole drama, Sunil was actually treating his wound the way he wanted to treat it yesterday but couldn't do it and now knowing that Abhijeet could do nothing to stop him, Sunil was looking in the full mood of cashing that rare opportunity…
Where silently winking at Abhijeet in mischief, to receive a displeased-complaining look in return, Sunil turned his gaze back towards Daya, and warmth again appeared in his eyes, remembering his moments' back interaction with him with few voices started echoing in his ears as…
(Excitedly) Daya daikho yeh naya football dia hai mujhy sir ny…
Arrey wah… (Little naughtily…) Ab samajh aai tumhien class mein top kerny ki kyun prri rehti hai hr samey…
(Made a face in friendly-teasing way…) Ab zada srro mtt tum, yun bhi sir sb ko hi gift daity hain class clear kerny py, tumhien kya gift mila…?
(In cute-shy smile…) Alvin and the Chipmunks series ki DVDs…
(With beaming smile…) Superb, matlab aaj phir sy uss purany storeroom mein movie night pkki…
(Trying to shush him sidewise looking around with…) Shhh, dheery bolo stupid, ager woh baat-bae-baat hath uthany waly taklu warden sir ny suun lia na tou fazool mein maary jaien gy dono…
(Carelessly moving his hand in the air…) Easey hi maary jaien gy, halwa hai kya…? (Winked at the latter merrily…) Jeeye baghair tou hum bhi nahin mrrien gy dost…
(Having pain-warning-hope-care-love-support-encouragement and everything in his voice…) Sunil…!
(Dropped the topic casually…) Achha chhoro ab yeh sb aur chalo, ground mein ja ker catch-catch khailty hain…
Haan chalo… (And he ran ahead while yelling as…) Jo ground mein pehly pohancha, pehli baari uss ki…
(While running behind him, grumbled furiously with…) Jb daikho apni lambi taango'n ka faida uthata rehta hai yeh lambu… (Yelled at the latter from behind as…) Daya tum ny cheating ki hai, cheater, Daya…!
And his own audible toned call of Daya brought him back in the present world and looking around, he inhaled deeply to compose himself and then looked towards Daya to find those doubtful eyes staring back at him in confusion-filled-question hence trying to handle the situation…
Sunil trying to sound casual, asked him in soft-calm tone as: Vial wapis toss ker doo ab please…
Daya though was no more looking angry but was still looking hesitant and nervous, had looked towards him, then towards the vial and then towards Abhijeet to receive a soft-assuring nod from there hence he again looked towards Sunil, who was patiently waiting for his attention and response, when glancing back at the vial clutched in his sweaty fist, Daya inhaling a long deep breath, finally tossed the vial back towards Sunil who caught it in the air and knowing that he had full attention of Daya now, hence looking directly in his doubtful-aching gaze…
Sunil said in comforting-consoling tone as: Sb doctors aik jaisy nahin hoty Daya… (A shadow of immense pain passed Daya's face with cracks appearing in his moist eyes while Sunil added in soft smile as…) Tum bhi tou jaanty ho gy shaid easey kuchh doctors ko jo apny profession sy baeimaani kerny sy pehly apni jaan daina pasand krien gy, hmm…? (Daya had already turned his face away without saying anything where Sunil added in same soft-consoling way as…) Tumhara yeh jo thora thora dost hai na, yeh maira bohut purana dost hai, aaj pehli baar treat nahin ker raha main issy, iss liye please try to relax, he is safe with me, Okay…? (Daya looked at him again in silence though still looking quite restless and Sunil could tell that he was really doubtful from Sunil's side and was not trusting on him hence he elaborated in calm-composed tone as…) Kal issy jo chot lggi thi uss mein infection na ho, iss baat ko make sure kerny k liye antibiotic ka injection daina zarori hai… (Anger-filled-displeasure appeared in Daya's gaze while Sunil nodded to him calmly while continuing his efforts to make him understand with…) Kal nahin dy skka main issy injection iss liye aaj dy raha hoon kyun k chot iss ki aankh k bohut qareeb lggi hai iss liye bhagwan na kry ager infection ho gae tou aankh tk bhi ja sakti hai… (Added in sweet smile while throwing a smiley glance at his silently sitting friend with…) Aur tumhary iss thory thory dost ki yeh aankhien, iss k dosto'n aur dushmano'n, dono mein hi bohut mashhor hain, iss liye main kabhi nahin chahon ga k iss ko ya iss ki inn pyari pyari aankhon ko kabhi kuchh ho… (And noticing there was only silence present in Daya's gaze now, Sunil taking a momentary pause and turning completely serious, added in meaningful way as…) Tumhien maira aik mashwara hai Daya, kabhi iss ki aankhon mein jhaank ker daikhna tum, mujhy puri umeed hai k tumhien apni bohut si uljhano'n aur sawalo'n k jawab milien gy wahan… (Daya, who was already looking much calm-and-quiet, started looking confused now and glanced over Abhijeet to receive a soft-comforting smile from there when Sunil told him in relaxed tone as…) Wasey Daya, tum chaho tou ab yeh pencil tum neechy rakh sakty ho… (Bringing a deep smile on Abhijeet's face who too had already noticed it where Daya getting shocked on himself, looked towards his own hand to find himself grabbing the pencil tightly in his fist, which he didn't realize when came in his hand but he knew that he had the clear intention of using it as a dagger on that doctor, if needed, and he reluctantly glanced over the latter, listening to him adding in same friendly-relaxed way as…) Ager tumhara mujhy maarny ka irada bddal gaya ho tou…? (And a deep disappointed smile formed on his face seeing Daya was now looking everywhere but at him and shaking head to himself, Sunil turned towards Abhijeet and sat in-front of him again while completing softly as…) Baith jao Daya, injection lainy k baad bhi tumhara yeh thora thora dost yahin room mein rukky ga kuchh daer jb tk yeh puri tarhan stable nahin ho jata, iss liye tum khud bhi daikh lo gy k mairy diye injection sy issy koe nuqsan nahin ho ga, so just try to relax please…
And in the meantime Sunil gave Abhijeet the injection while Daya too had reluctantly got seated now, sidewise removing his grip on the tightly held pencil too and seeing him still struggling to compose himself completely and hence was not focused at them…
Abhijeet, seeing Sunil was busy in applying the Band-Aid on the prick mark now, grumbled complainingly as: Achha faida uthaya hai tum ny doctor dost…
Deepening Sunil's smile and…
Sunil whispered back to the latter asking in little mischievous way as: Achhy bchchon k jaisy injection lgwany py Strepsils chahiye…? Mint flavored…? (And receiving a fiery look from the other end on that leg-pulling, Sunil hiding his chuckle, turned towards his medical-bag and grabbing an Eye-Drops from there, instructed the latter casually in audible tone as…) Ab tum ya tou srr pichhy ki ourh ker lo ya chaho tou laet jao…
And his words got cut with…
An angry loud voice from behind as: Laet-laet kyun jao, kyun laet jao…? (With Sunil already stood up while turning towards the latter and easily spotted the pencil returned in his tightly held fist while Daya still kept yelling madly and angrily as…) Tum-tum gandy ho, injection dainy k baad ab laetny ko keh rahy ho ussy, tum gandy ho, gandy ho tum…
Sunil wearing fake stiff expressions on his face, showed him the Eye-Drops in his hand with: Eye-drops dalny hain mujhy iss ki aankhon mein, aur srr mein dard bhi hai iss k iss liye laetny ka keh raha hoon ta k yeh thora rest ker ly… (Asked him in fake annoyance with…) Tum kabhi hospital nahin gaye ho kya, ptta nahin hai kya tumhien yeh sb…? (Daya just turned his face away, still looking quite angry and furious while Sunil asked him in same fake annoyed-angry tone as…) Aur tum kuchh daer k liye bathroom mein kyun nahin chaly jaty…? (Daya gave him a burning look, listening to Sunil completing as…) Ta k tum bhi thori daer shanti sy raho aur main bhi shanti sy apny dost ko treat ker lun…?
Daya shook his head firmly in anger-filled-displeasure as: Main kyun jaon, main yahin rehta hoon, maira room hai yeh, tum jao yahan sy foren, abhi k abhi jao bahir tum…
Abhijeet just turned his face away to hide his disappointed chuckle and feeling relieved too, seeing Sunil's efforts of making Daya talk to him had finally payed off, where though internally feeling happy and still maintaining annoyed expressions outside…
Sunil replied in same anger-filled-annoyed tone as: Main bhi nahin jaon ga… (Added in double-meaning way as…) Maira dost hai yahan aur ussy mairi zarorat hai, iss liye ussy wapis pehly jaisa kiye bina tou main bhi nahin jaon ga kahin… (Completed in little tease-filled-irritation as…) Aur yun bhi problem tumhien hai na, tou jao bhi tum khud hi…
Daya looking absolutely fuming in anger now, replied in real frustration-filled-anger as: Kitny bdtameez ho tum, baat kerny ki tameez nahin hai kya tumhien…?
Sunil carelessly shook his head with: Nahin hai, kafi logon ny koshish ki seekhany ki lekin kamyab nahin ho paye baechary, I really feel for them though…
Daya, suddenly getting completely quiet kept looking at the latter with fixed gaze, making both Abhijeet and Sunil confused, seeing few moments' back anger and frustration was no more present in Daya's eyes or body-language where on the other side, that careless-unbothered attitude towards other people's opinion about himself, all that I don't give a damn approach, not looking for anyone's validation or certification, Daya knew that, he had seen all that already but in only one person, he had already heard such teasing-taunting answers with few sentences were echoing in his ears now as…
(In displeased-frustration) Sunil tumhien kya soujhi thi yun class mein Jitin sy lrrny ki, haan…?
(Still quite angry) Kyun na lrrta main uss Jitin k bchchy sy, jaan boujh k mairi practical notebook py paani girra k mairi puri notebook kharab ker di uss manhos ny, ab mujhy sb shuru sy bn'nana prry ga…
(Consolingly) Arry tou main help ker…
(Cut him in frustration-filled-seriousness…) Yar help ki baat nahin hai Daya, aur main ny diagrams bhi koe teen-char hi bnai thien, mujhy ghussa uss chhipkaly ki itni cheap herket py aaya hua hai… Samajhta kya hai woh cheap insan k duniya mein uss k elawa baqi sb bewakoof hain jo koe uss ki intention samajh nahin paye ga… Khud sy tou mehnat hoti nahin hai aur kisi aur ki mehnat py yun paani phaerny ki koshish kerny jaisi ghatiya herkat, ghatiya insan na ho tou, dil tou chah raha tha na k khaench k daita aik uss meesny k kaan…
(Cut him strictly…) Achha bs ker doo ab tum bhi, shaant ho jao bilkul tum ab, lrr lia na tum ny uss sy, woh bhi Namman sir k samny… Aaj first day tha unn ka, pehla impression hi kitna bura per gaya ho ga tumhara…
(Carelessly…) Dffa maaro yar pehly impression ko, uss Jitin k bchchy ko yeh baat samjhana bohut zarori tha k khud aagy berhny k liye kisi dosry ko neechy girrany ki koshish kerny waly insan zindagi mein kabhi kahin nahin pohanch paty aur hamesha yunhi baeizzat hi hoty hain, hunh…
(Sternly…) Tum ab apna yeh ghussa khatam bhi kro gy ya main kisi dosri tarhan sy samjhaon tumhien…?
(Looking shocked-and-angry…) Ab tum uss meesny ki wajah sy mujh sy lrro gy...?
(While folding his sleeves...) Main bttata hoon tumhien ks liye lrron ga main tum ny...
(Stepping back while coming in line...) Achha theek hai, ker dia hai ghussa khatam... (Grumbled frustrated-ly...) Ajeeb ghunda-gardi hai, insan apni marzi sy ghussa bhi nahin ker sakta ab, hunh... (Feeling heat waves coming from the other side, turned towards him...) Kya hai, yeh nahin k ja k uss idiot k dantt tooro, mairy oper charhai kiye ja rahy ho tum... (And noticing the latter's closed fist, hurriedly added while moving back a little with...) Achha na, ab tou tum py ghussa ker raha hoon na main, uss chhipkaly py thori... (Daya had really tried every last bit of his power not to laugh and kept staring at the latter with same hard look, listening to him adding while making face...) Aur ab tum mujhy yeh ghoorna bnd kro, aur sath mein apni yeh fazool ki chinta bhi bnd kro… (Carelessly…) Ker dun ga Namman sir k samny bhi bohut jald prove…
(Irritation-filled-helplessness…) Ab sir k samny kya prove kerna hai tumhien…?
(In carefree smile…) Yehi that first impression is not always the last impression…
And he winked at the latter pleasantly where…
A disappointed chuckle escaped Daya's mouth with: Tum sach mein crack ho Sunil…
And all three people present there got completely stopped at their places with Daya, listening to his own voice, coming back in the present world with a jerk, had looked around in the room, with his gaze unintentionally again moved towards the doctor present there, who was looking at him in complete silence now where throwing an injured-restless glance at Abhijeet, Daya again looked towards Sunil, looking really disturbed and equally in pain and then without saying anything, with fast steps he left the place towards the bathroom and closed the bathroom door on his back with salty drops of misery and anguish, already slipping down from his eyes…
Sunil couldn't tell from how long he was standing there like that, in complete silence, when a supportive grip on his shoulder brought him out from his thoughts and inhaling deeply to compose his scattered thoughts…
Sunil nodded slightly with: Main theek hoon Abhijeet, don't worry… (And inhaling deeply while spreading hands on his face to get himself together, Sunil turned towards the latter in composed smile with…) Seriously, I am fine, just got a little carried away, I am fine now, relax… (Abhijeet nodded in understanding smile while giving a supportive pat on his upper-arm when looking quite composed now, Sunil realizing Abhijeet was standing there now, snubbed the latter in light-friendly tone as…) Tum yahan kya ker rahy ho, pagal larky…? (Abhijeet gave the latter a fuming-shocked look and before he could protest, Sunil while grabbing Abhijeet's arm, took him to the spot he was earlier sitting while still snubbing him with…) Character mein raho apny, mareez ho tum… (And making him sit there, who was pouting annoyingly now, he added as…) Bhai aa jata na tumhara tou abhi bhanda phoout jata humara…
Abhijeet kept sitting there, though keeping mum but looking really annoyed and grumbling in his mind with his selection of his own role of the patient as even at the times when he was actually the patient then too had a very bad record of staying in the hospital and running away from there as soon as he could, and now here, he was completely fine but had to act beemar, "the things you do for your loved ones", Abhijeet thought while sighing internally having pity on himself and was really double-guessing his own plan where taking advantage of him being deeply engrossed in revisiting his plan…
Sunil smoothly turned Abhijeet's face up towards the ceiling with: Achha oper daikho tum, mujhy drops daal…
And looking like…
Abhijeet hurriedly came back from his re-evaluation and hence moved back the same second, while cutting the latter in shock-filled-hurry as: Yeh tum kuchh zada hi role mein nahin aa gaye…?
Sunil gave him a hard look with: Main sach mein hi doctor hoon, mister, samjhy…?
Abhijeet looking like ready to cry, asked him as: Main tou naqli patient hoon na tou sach mein kyun drops daal rahy ho tum…? (Completed in fake pain as…) Pehly hi khail khail mein asli injection dy dia mujhy, bdtameez…
Sunil while moving Abhijeet's face upward again, sidewise continuing ignoring his whole dramybazian, started putting drops in his eyes with: Injection daina tumhara hi plan tha, yeh bolo k asli dawai dy di injection mein… (Abhijeet could just grumble an annoyed Hunh where now moving back after putting drops in his both eyes, Sunil grabbed him the tissue with…) ACP sir sy baat ho gae hai mairi… (Abhijeet's hand stopped in question-filled-shock while wiping off the water from his eyes while Sunil continued in same casual tone sidewise closing his medical bag with…) Sir ny lunch k baad aany ka kaha hai tumhien, that too if possible, otherwise it's fine with him…
Abhijeet giving him a heated look, chewed out his name as: Sunil…!
Sunil knowing the meaning of that call quite well, gave him a relaxed look with: Relax yar… (Added while trying to remind him as…) Tum hi ny tou kaha tha k apny laadly ko line py lany ka tumhara secret program hr haal mein shuru ker doo gy tum aaj… (Shrugged carefree-ly as…) I just helped you, you know… (Abhijeet could just shook his head in disappointment-filled-frustration while Sunil added in hope-filled-supportive way as…) Aur sir ny yeh bhi kaha tha k jb bhi aana, achhi khaber k sath aana… (Abhijeet getting quiet, nodded to the latter in hope-filled-confident small assuring smile where Sunil added in light smile as…) Aur wasey aaj sy tum aik aur program bhi shuru ker sakty ho… (And receiving a questioning look in return, he added while looking silently at the bathroom door with…) Aaj aik baar phir yeh baat prove ho gae hai k humari personalities ko Daya hum sy link ker paa raha hai… (Added in little lost way as…) Tumhien daikh k ussy uss ka Abhi yaad aata hai, mairi kisi baat sy ussy Sunil yaad aaya hai… (And inhaling deeply while composing himself, he turned towards Abhijeet who too was sitting there looking completely serious and attentive now, he added as…) Aur yeh tou hum jaanty hain k Daya ki sirf recent memories effect hue hain, purani memories sb theek hai bilkul iss liye ab hum dheery dheery issy woh bhooly hoye incidents yaad kerwa sakty hain, bs koshish kerna k kuchh bohut zada stressful na ho iss k liye, iss k brain py pressure nahin perna chahiye bilkul… (Abhijeet nodded understandably while Sunil asked him as…) Hai koe easa incident tumhary dimagh mein…?
Abhijeet having mixed emotions of pain-hurt-anger-thoughtfulness-confusion, nodded slightly with: Haan, aik hai…
Sunil nodded back and before he could say further, the bathroom door opened and without looking towards anyone, who had very well noticed his red-swollen face and puffed-up eyes, Daya leaving towards his usual sitting place, slowly sat there quietly while wrapping his arms around his legs and his face rested on his knees though was turned towards the wall, clearly intentionally avoiding the two and was still looking quite distressed and disturbed where trying to remain composed…
Sunil grabbing his medical-bag stood up while addressing Abhijeet with: Chalo ab main ja raha hoon bahir, eye-drops aur pain-killers yahin chhor raha hoon lekin laina sirf tb ager aankh mein itching ho ya ghaow mein kisi qisem ka pain, Okay…? (Abhijeet nodded in composed way assuredly hence nodding back at him, Sunil turned his attention towards his other friend with…) Aur Daya…! (And though apparently there happened no change in Daya's posture but they could tell that Sunil had his full attention, hence he continued softly as…) Khayal rakhna please, apna bhi aur apny iss thory thory dost ka bhi, Okay…? (And all he received was a silence in return hence having a silent smile on his face, Sunil turned towards Abhijeet while adding in fresh tone little mischievously as…) Tng mtt kerna Daya to tum, achha…? (And in return had received a hard look from the other side, deepening his sweet smile, where stopping near the room-door, Sunil turned towards Abhijeet with…) Aur Suno…! (Abhijeet looked at him in response where Sunil completed little teasingly as…) You are welcome…
And winking at him, Sunil completely left the room while throwing a silent smiley glance at his silently sitting friend and spreading a disappointed smile on Abhijeet's face, who easily got Sunil's tease about him calling to ACP sir to inform about him…
