The Next chapter !!

Hope it satisfy you !!

Abhijeet was dragged into the IB Bureau late at night, his body battered and bruised. His wrists were cuffed tightly, and his disheveled shirt clung to his sweat-soaked skin. The officers shoved him through the corridor, the echoes of their footsteps bouncing off the metallic walls.

The officers laughed as they pushed him into a small, dark cell. The heavy door slammed shut, and the sound of the bolt locking echoed

IB Officer : Khana,pani ka sapna bhi mat dekhna. Kal subah interrogation ke liye tayaar rehna

Abhijeet leaned against the wall, his body sliding down to the floor. His breath was ragged, and his mind raced with thoughts of Aarav, his family, and the mess he was stuck in. He clutched his ribs, wincing from the pain, before letting his head rest against the cold wall

The sun rose, but the day brought no hope for Abhijeet. The IB officials dragged him out of his cell and into the interrogation room. His wrists were still cuffed, and his eyes were bloodshot, showing the toll of the sleepless night

Inside the room, the atmosphere was heavy. Senior officials from IB and the Narcotics Department had gathered, including Manoj, Abhijeet's brother. ACP Pradyuman and Daya were also present, their faces grim as they stood silently by the wall

Abhijeet was shoved into the chair, his cuffs removed. He winced as his sore wrists brushed against the cold metal table

IB Officer Ramesh: Abhijeet, shuru karte hain. Bolo, kyun kiya yeh sab? Tum jaante ho ki saboot tumhare khilaf hain

Abhijeet stared at the table, his expression unreadable

Ramesh(angrily): Chup rehne se kuch nahi hoga! Tumhare paas ek mauka hai apne liye sab kuch theek karne ka

Still, Abhijeet remained silent. His unflinching silence began to frustrate the officials

Narcotics Officer 1: Tum CID ke officer the. Tumhe pata hai interrogation kaise hoti hai. Bolna shuru karo!

When Abhijeet didn't respond, Manoj slammed his hand on the table, startling everyone in the room

Manoj (angrily): Abhi! Yeh kya kar rahe ho? Tumhare khamoshi se sab kuch khatam ho raha hai! Tumhe pata bhi hai ki yeh sab kis taraf jaa raha hai?

Abhijeet still refused to look up or say a word. Manoj's frustration boiled over. He walked over to Abhijeet and slapped him hard across the face. The force of the slap made Abhijeet lose his balance, and he fell off the chair, landing on the cold floor with a groan

The room went silent, the tension palpable. Everyone looked at Manoj in shock, including ACP Pradyuman

Manoj bent down, grabbed Abhijeet by the collar, and Abhi whispered in his ear:

Abhi (whispering): "Aarav."

Manoj's eyes flickered with recognition. He met Abhi's gaze for a brief moment, and the faintest nod passed between them

Manoj's expression shifted from anger to realization. He straightened up and turned to the officials

Manoj (calmly): Excuse me,I have to step out for a moment

Without waiting for permission, Manoj walked out of the room, leaving everyone bewildered.

As Manoj left, an aide entered the room and handed Ramesh a document. Ramesh read it with a smirk before turning to ACP Pradyuman

Ramesh: ACP Pradyuman, humein orders mile hain. Aap aur aapki team ko iss case se hata diya gaya hai. CID is no longer involved

Daya stepped forward, his voice tense

Daya:Aisa kaise ho sakta hai? Abhijeet ko hum jaante hain. Woh kuch galat nahi kar sakta

Ramesh(mocking): Shayad aapko yeh samajhne mein waqt lagega, Officer Daya, par aapka yeh bharosa galat hai Yeh case ab Narcotics aur IB ke under hai

ACP Pradyuman clenched his fists but kept his composure. He gave Daya a sharp look, signaling him to stay silent

ACP Pradyuman(coldly): We know the Orders

With that, ACP Pradyuman and Daya walked out of the room, their shoulders heavy with disappointment

Daya and Manoj arrived at ACP Pradyuman's house late in the Afternoon. The house was dimly lit, and the weight of the day hung heavy on their shoulders. Priya, who had been pacing the living room anxiously, rushed toward them as soon as they entered.

Priya(frantic): Daya, Manoj! Kya hua? Abhi kaisa hai? Woh theek toh hai na? Kab tak ghar aayega?

Manoj held up his hand, signaling her to calm down, but his expression betrayed his own turmoil.

Manoj (trying to stay composed): Priya, pehle tum shant ho jao. Abhi ke baare mein baat karenge, lekin mujhe Aarav se milna hai

Priya(confused): Aarav? Kyun? Uska is sab mein kya lena dena?b

Daya(gently): Priya, bas Aarav ko bulao. Shayad woh kuch important bata sake

Priya hesitated but eventually called Aarav. The little boy came running down the stairs, his face lighting up when he saw Manoj

Aarav (cheerful): Daddy! Aap wapas aa gaye!

He started to run toward Manoj but stopped abruptly when he noticed Daya. His face fell, and he turned around, running back toward his room

Priya (alarmed): Aarav! Ruko! Kya hua?

Daya and Manoj exchanged confused looks before following Priya upstairs. They found Aarav sitting on the floor of his room, clutching a small flash drive in his hands

Manoj (kneeling beside him): Aarav, beta, kya hua? Aap Daya chachu se kyun bhaag rahe ho?

Aarav(pouting): Abu chachu ne kaha tha yeh Daya chachu ko dena hai. Lekin Abu chachu ghar kyun nahi aaye? Mujhe laga woh aapke saath wapas aayenge

Manoj gently took the flash drive from Aarav's hands, his brows furrowing as he exchanged a meaningful glance with Daya

Daya(sitting beside Aarav): Aarav beta, tumne yeh Abu chachu se kab liya? Kya tum mujhe bata sakte ho ki kya hua tha?

Aarav nodded solemnly, his tiny face scrunched up as he tried to recall everything

Aarav: Koi aunty aayi thi school mein. Unhone bola ki mummy papa ne bheja hai mujhe lene ke liye. Phir unhone mujhe ek dark room mein le jaake chhod diya

Priya (horrified): Kya?! Aarav, tum theek toh ho na? Woh aurat kaun thi?n

Aarav(frowning): Pata nahi, mummy. Woh mujhse zyada baat nahi karti thi. Phir mujhe raat ko road pe chhod diya

Manoj felt his heart sink as he listened, his fists clenching in anger.

Manoj (gently): Aur phir? Uske baad kya hua, beta?

Aarav(smiling ): Abu chachu wahan aaye! Unhone mujhe uthaya, tightly hug kiya. Woh road pe bahut fast gaadi chalake le gaye

Daya (nodding, encouraging him): Aur phir kya bola Abu chachu ne?

Aarav: Woh ro rahe the. Main bola ki ro mat, par unhone bola kuch nahi hua. Phir unhone mujhe ghar chhod diya

Priya (teary-eyed): Tumhe kuch bola tha unhone?

Aarav nodded enthusiastically and handed the flash drive to Daya.

Aarav: Unhone bola ki yeh Daya chachu ko dena. Main bola ki Abu chachu mujhe sab karne doonga

Daya took the flash drive, his jaw tightening

Daya (whispering to Manoj): Yeh zaroor kuch saboot hoga

Manoj nodded but then turned to Aarav, placing a hand on his shoulder

Manoj: Beta, Abu chachu ne kuch aur kaha tha?

Aarav (pouting): Woh bas bol rahe the ki champ, ghar ke andar raho. Mummy papa aayenge.He looked at them with wide eyes. Par woh ab tak kyun nahi aaye?

Priya covered her mouth to stifle a sob, unable to hold back her tears. Manoj pulled Aarav into his arms, hugging him tightly

Manoj (softly): Beta, Abu chachu ko kuch kaam tha. Woh zaroor wapas aayenge

Aarav looked up at his father, his innocent eyes full of hope

Aarav: Pakka? Abu chachu ko wapas lekar aayenge na?

Manoj kissed his forehead, trying to hide his own heartbreak

Manoj: Haan, beta. Hum zaroor unhe wapas le aayenge

Daya stood up, gripping the flash drive tightly. His face was set with determination

Daya(to Priya): Yeh flash drive ka content dekhna hoga. Yeh Abhi ki madad karne ka ek raasta ho sakta hai

Priya wiped her tears and nodded

Priya(whispering): Please

Daya(firmly): Priya, hum apna sab kuch laga denge Abhijeet ka kuch nahi hoga

With that, Daya and Manoj exchanged one last determined look before leaving the room, ready to uncover the truth hidden in the flash drive

The cold, gray walls of the interrogation room stood as silent witnesses to the unfolding brutality. Abhijeet sat on the metal chair, his black shirt torn from the relentless rough handling earlier. His face was pale, yet his eyes burned with defiance. Across the room stood a group of IB officials, their eyes scanning him with suspicion, anger, and frustration.

As Manoj stormed out of the room

Ramesh(sarcastically): Wah, Abhijeet. CID ka golden boy. ACP Pradyuman ka beta. Aur ab... ek drug dealer aur traitor? Sharam nahi aati?

Abhijeet kept his gaze fixed on the floor, refusing to respond

Ramesh(slamming his hand on the table): Kya hua? Zubaan band ho gayi? CID ke log toh bade smart bante hain! Ab kya hua?

Abhijeet didn't flinch. His silence only seemed to fuel Ramesh's anger

Another Officer(taunting):"Lagta hai saari training bhool gaya hai. Shayad CID me sirf naam ke liye tha

Ramesh (mocking): Ya shayad yeh hamesha se double agent tha. ACP Pradyuman ka beta, lekin dil... Drugs ke saath

Abhijeet's fists clenched behind his back, but he stayed quiet

Ramesh (stepping closer): Dekho, tumhare bhai ko toh tum pe bharosa tha. Par mujhe toh bas ek baat chahiye... ek confession. Bas ek baar bol do ki tum guilty ho. Zindagi asaan ho jayegi

Abhijeet slowly raised his head and locked eyes with Ramesh. His lips parted, and his voice came out hoarse but steady

Abhijeet(calmly): Main jo kar raha hoon, uska wajah aap nahi samjhoge

Ramesh smirked, but there was a flicker of annoyance in his eyes

Ramesh* (mocking): Wajah? Wajah kya hai? Paisa? Power? Ya koi personal vendetta? Batado, Abhijeet. Yeh 'bade mission' ka kya scene hai?

When Abhijeet didn't respond, Ramesh's patience snapped. He gestured to his subordinates.

Ramesh: lagta hai isse baat samjhane ke liye thoda alag tareeka apnana padega

One of the officers walked up to Abhijeet and kicked him hard in the shoulder. The impact sent him flying off the chair and onto the cold, hard floor

Officer 1: Kya hua, Abhijeet? CID me yeh sab nahi sikhaya

Abhijeet groaned in pain, coughing as he tried to push himself up. Another officer stepped in, grabbing him by the collar and yanking him back onto the chair

Ramesh(leaning closer): Ab to samajh gaya hoga ki yeh CID nahi hai, IB hai. Aur yahan tere jaisa deshdrohi sirf ek choice karta hai confess

Still, Abhijeet didn't utter a word. His silence felt like defiance, and it infuriated the officers even more

Officer 2(punching him in the abdomen): Bol! Kis ke liye kaam kar raha tha? Raj ke liye? Ya kisi aur ke liye?

Abhijeet doubled over, gasping for air, but he straightened up again, his jaw set in determination.

Ramesh: Oh, toh hero banna hai? Dekhte hain kitna sahas hai

Ramesh signaled the other officers, who yanked Abhijeet's shirt off, exposing his bruised and battered torso. They tied his hands behind his back and hoisted him up, stringing him upside down from a hook on the ceiling

Officer 3 (grinning cruelly): Ab toh bol hi dega. Hero banna itna asaan nahi hai, beta

They took turns hitting him with a wooden baton, each blow landing with a sickening thud he spat out blood

Officer 1 (taunting): Yeh wahi haath hain jo CID ke badge ke sath salute karte the? Ab dekho, yeh haath drug peddling ke liye kaise kaam aaye

Abhijeet winced but refused to cry out. The officers grew more aggressive, one of them delivering a harsh slap across his face

Ramesh: Aakhri baar puch raha hoon, Abhijeet. Sach bol do, warna yeh interrogation tumhare liye aur khatarnak banegi

Abhijeet, despite the excruciating pain, managed to speak, his voice barely above a whisper.

Abhijeet: Main CID officer hoon. Jo karna hai, kar lo

This enraged Ramesh. He grabbed Abhijeet's face, forcing him to look into his eyes

Ramesh: CID officer? Tum ek criminal ho, aur main tumhara sach sabke samne le aunga. Dekhna, tumhara baap bhi tumhe bacha nahi paayega!

After hours of relentless beating and no progress, the officers finally cut him down and dragged him back to the cell. His body hit the cold floor with a thud, and he curled up, clutching his ribs

Officer 1 (smirking): Khane ki zarurat toh hai nahi tujhe. Enjoy kar bhook aur pyaas ke saath

They locked the cell and left, their laughter echoing in the empty corridor. Abhijeet lay there, coughing and shivering, his face streaked with blood and sweat
