Hi again!
So far... we've seen
Abhijeet* searching for that 'spy's wife' who overheard their convo
Daya* kidnapping Abhijeet to prove Shreya's innocent; at the same time, remaining distant from her too.
Rajat* frantically searching Purvi and is now admitted in hospital by the Duo
Tarika* waiting for Abhijeet to return home and...
Shreya* misunderstood Daya to be gay and now planning to make him comfortable around her
Purvi* had escaped from her kidnappers and returning Mumbai.
I know I had rushed the Purvi escsping part; she escaped just 2hrs before Daya found Rajat.
Thank you all for patiently waiting for me. Let's get onto the next chapter. Please review...
In the hospital (B)...
Rajat wakes up murmuring Purvi's name. He felt a soft hand caressing his head... It felt like Purvi's. Knowing its a dream, he opened his eyes to see Purvi standing there with a cute smile on her face.
Purvi: How are you?
Rajat: You..what..but..
Purvi: It's ok, relax, relax. You've been under a mental trauma, severe one, mind it. You're not getting out of the bed for anorher 6 months.
Rajat: 6 months? But what will I do till then? You know I'm an outdoor guy! He pouts.
Purvi: Ohh, you can narrate your tales of valour as an undercover cop.
Rajat: Yeah right... WHAT??? I mean... you know...how?..huh.
He stammers.
Purvi: Come on yaar, why would they kidnap a surgeon's wife? I'm not that dumb, ok ?
Rajat: You're one of the brightest people I've ever met you know?
Purvi: Yeah... I agree on that!
Purvi: Anyways, they need an info about a place where something happens and they seemed to think I know it; but I don't know of course. But they wouldn't believe me and tried to scare me and tied me up and... and ...blackmile me with you and...
Rajat: Stop stop stop ... they tried to scre you and beat you?
That's when he sees her face clearly. She was smiling of course. But he could make out bruises and fingermarks (indicating slaps) on her face. His eyes teared up immediately and hugged her to hide it continously murmuring his sorry...
Purvi: What are you sorry about? It's not your fault. I should've listened and not take that blasted shortcut. They kidnapped me because they wanted to know something from me.
Rajat: But I promised your father that I won't let anything hurt you. I'll keep you smiling always. I... fsiled my promise. I...
Purvi: Ok! That's enough, not an another word first. Now listen to me.
First of all, I'm not crying. I never cried in these three days, you can ask those goons.
Then, listen carefully; I'm not a child Rajat for you to keep me happy always, for you and Appa to pamper me. I'm a woman. I can make my own mind. I can make my own decisions like I did three days back and face the consequences.
Don't be sorry for my actions. Instead let's try to work together. Please don't push me to the sideline in my own story. I know you care and love me a lot. You're protective and I like it very much. *Too much of anything is good for nothing*
I really love the way you take care of me and..
Rajat: I understand... I understand what you're trying to say. It's just that, after seeing and attending to so many sexual assault cases and human trafficking ones, you just turn into *me* kind of person, you know what I mean?
Purvi: I do now. That makes quite a lot of sense now... Well (she wipes away his tears) you're one crying and had a trauma; MENTAL one. Does that mean, I failed my promise to your mom?
Rajat: Of course not and stop saying it...
Purvi: What ?
Pajat: MENTAL trauma, coz I'm not staying at bed 24/7.
Purvi: Yes you are...
Rajat: Shit man...
Purvi: And no cussing!
She said as she left the room.
Meanwhile at the hospital (A)*
[Where Rajat was originally admitted by the Duo]
Daya: Where the hell is he?
Attender: I don't know sir, I just came to check on him ... and he's gone.
Abhijeet: How can let him escape? I thought he was under sedatives and won't wake up till the morning...
Doctor: We've thought that too. He couldn't have woken up.
Daya: Ok, would he have been awake an hour ago?
Doctor: No, that's impossible.
Abhijeet: That means only one thing.
Daya: But, who can be it? Wait a second...
Abhijeet: A brainwave ?
Daya: Meet me at the CCD near the Super mall at 4 this evening.
Abhijeet: Ok, I guess. Well I can go home finally.
Daya: Hmm... so see you at five
Abhijeet: Yeah.
At Abhijeet's home...
He goes to his home atlast waiting to see Tarika and devour his butter chicken. But she had left a note for him stating that she had to do a bunch of errands and will be home by 6, that his food was at the fridge and all the other wifely instructions.
He sighed and heated his food, ate some and slept immediately afterwards.
So that's it for today... I hope the Chap was good.
Take care and do review:)
