Heart vs Brain - Chapter 8

          Hi everyone... Thanks for all the wonderful reviews and love you all showered me with... Here is the chapter. So first read it and then i will see you in the end.

                              Chapter 8

                            *Flashback*
        After Dr. Avinash took Abhijeet to his house, he started treating him... He was still doubtful about who Abhijeet was and was also scared of him but the doctor in him overpowered his fear. He was treating him selflessly with a pure heart. His hardwork proved to be fruitful and Abhijeet's condition was improving with a great speed.

*CID bureau*

         Everyone seemed to be tensed... Purvi and freedy were talking over phone, Pankaj was busy over laptop, Daya was talking to one of his informer rather say was shouting over him and ACP sir was sitting in his cabin in a thinking mode. The usually clam mornings didn't seem calm in the CID bureau... Reason? Reason was Abhijeet's absence. No one knew where he was... He had to be in the bureau for some important work this morning but he was still not here... The on time and always ready for duty CID cop had unexpectedly disappeared! They had checked his house and it was locked, his phone was switched off since the moment he left the crime scene yesterday night and this was the only thing that the CID cops, right now, knew why! He had already told them yesterday that his phone's battery was dead!

*Dr. Avinash's house*

       It was 6 AM... And Dr. Avinash came out of his washroom, getting fresh after a small nap of an hour... Yes, a nap of an hour was all the rest that he could get yesterday night or better say in the morning as he was busy treating Abhijeet the whole night...

'Ab tak toh usse hosh aa jana chahiye' (murmuring to himself he made his way towards the guest room where he had kept Abhijeet)

        Checking him he found Abhijeet to be still unconscious and so made his way towards the kitchen... Making tea for himself and soup for Abhijeet he came back to the guest room and started waiting for Abhijeet to gain back his consciousness, sitting on his armchair present in the room... After 30 minutes or so Abhijeet seemed to be gaining back his sences and Dr. Avinash once again got to his work of checking Abhijeet...

(After some time)

         Abhijeet opened his eyes slowly and closed them back instantly due to severe pain in his head... Opening them again, when he felt a bit better, he looked at his surroundings and found himself in some unknown place... His wandering eyes settled at Dr. Avinash standing in a corner of the room and he stared at him as if expecting some explanation. Waiting for a moment or so, Dr. Avinash came forward silently, helped Abhijeet sit on the bed, picked up the bowl of soup and forwarded it to Abhijeet... Grabbing it slowly Abhijeet continued to stare at him...

Dr. Avinash - App pehle please yeh pi lijiye... Hum baad mai baat karte hai?!

Abhijeet - Better option will be, mai yeh baad mai pi lunga... Hum pehle baat kar lete hai!

Dr. Avinash - Dekhiye... App mujhe nahi jante, mai appko nahi janta... Mujhe app par vishwas nahi hai, appko mujh par nahi hai... Yaha tak ki hum ek dusre ka naam tak nahi jante... So better hum ek dusre per thoda vishwas kare!? (Smilingly) Mai appko apne ghar mai rehne de kar aur app yeh soup pi kar. Something that i can presume for now is, it will be a long talk... So soup pite hue baat kare? Bore nahi honge!

Abhijeet - Hmm

(Till then Dr. Avinash had grabbed an armchair and had settled comfortably in it)

Abhijeet - Toh naam se shurwat karte hai? Am Abhijeet... Sr. Insp Abhijeet... CID Mumbai... So unless and until you don't believe that i am 'Abhijeet' maybe you can feel a bit easy

(Hearing that Abhijeet was a CID officer... Dr. Avinash took a relaxing sigh... Although he was still not completely relaxed but he was a bit better than before)

Dr. Avinash - Am Dr. Avinash... A heart surgeon, Lifeline hospital... Yeh mera ghar hai aur mai yaha appko appke ilaj ke liye le kar aaya tha

Abhijeet - Ghar par? Hospital kyu nahi?

Dr. Avinash - Kyuki hospitals ki strike chalu hai... If you know about it

Abhijeet - Oh yes, maine newspaper mai pada tha... Just skipped out of my mind... But app uss raste par? Matlab appko mai mila kaise?

Dr. Avinash - Actually mai bhi wahi par tha uss waqt jab appka woh accident... If we can call it a accident, hua! Mai ek party se laut raha tha aur late ho gaya tha... Better say bohat late ho gaya tha and tabhi mujhe ek call aaya... Gadi mai mujhe aawaj clear nahi aa rahi thi kyuki woh jungle ka rasta hai aur signal waha waise hi nahi milta so mai gadi band karke, gadi se bahar aa kar baat kar raha tha jab mujhe appki gadi aur uske piche woh truck aur kuch aur gadiya bhi dikhayi di... Iske pehle ki mai kuch samajh pata appne apni gadi jhaad se thok li. Jab app un logo se bach gaye the toh appne aisa kyu kiya?

Abhijeet - Hmm... As you said gadi band ki thi appne so gadi ki lights bhi band hongi... Street light toh waise hi nahi hai waha par... Shayad isiliye maine aur un gondo ne appko nahi dekha. Aur maine apni gadi jhaad se kyu thoki thi iska jawab mai appko baad mai dunga. Umm....Can i please get a phone for a minute? Mere paas mera nahi hai

Dr. Avinash - Sure

          Taking Dr. Avinash's phone Abhijeet browsed for something... Being satisfied with his mini research he opened another webpage and showed it to Dr. Avinash...

Abhijeet - Yeh dekhiye... I hope this information and these news articles help you clear your doubt about me... Maine bhi abhi appki hospital ki website par appke bare information nikali thi

Dr. Avinash - Such a simple and a easy way sir... Maine pehle iske bare mai kyu nahi socha! Kabse appke bare mai kya kya soch kar dar raha hu! Thank you sir (smiling)

Abhijeet - Thank you toh mujhe kehna chahiye appko... Agar app nahi hote toh mai abhi apse nahi Yamraj se baate kar raha hota... Thank you so much for all this

Dr. Avinash - Sir yeh toh farz tha mera... Logo ki jaan bachane ki kasam khai thi maine

Abhijeet - Doctor sahab aisi hi ek kasam maine bhi khayi thi... Aur samajh lijiye yeh sab jo kuch bhi hua hai woh sab usi kasam ko pura karne ke liye hua hai... Dr. Avinash i know it's too early to ask for something but i need your help... I need your help to save thousands of lives

Dr. Avinash - Ji sir boliye! Mai kya help kar sakta hu appki? Mujhse jo kuch bhi hoga mai zaroor karuga

Abhijeet - Dr. Avinash mai ek mission par hu, ek secret mission (and then Abhijeet explained all that happened till date to Dr. Avinash)... Ab mujhe aisa lagta hai ki woh jo koi bhi gaddar hai humare department mai, use pata chal chuka hai ki mai iss case ko investigate kar raha hu... Aur usi ne terrorists ko inform bhi kiya hoga iss bare mai... Tabhi unhe yeh sab pata chala hai aur tabhi unhone woh gadiya mujhe marne ke liye bejhi thi

Dr. Avinash - Kamal ka zasba hota hai sir app police walo mai... Itna kuch kar chuke hai app kisi aur ki jaan bachane ke liye

Abhijeet - Dr. Avinash yehi kaam hai humara... Aur samaj lijiye unhi logo ki jaan bachane mai mujhe appki help chahiye... Dr. Avinash, mujhe marna hoga...

Dr. Avinash - Kya?! Sir app yeh kya bol rahe hai?

Abhijeet - Marna hoga matlab mujhe yeh sabit karna hoga ki mai mar chuka hu... Tabhi un logo ko vishwas hoga ki unhe mujhse koi kathra nahi hai. Phir mai undercover reh kar iss case ko investigate karta rahuga... Lekin mujhe yeh sabit karne ke liye ki mai mar chuka hu, appki help chahiye

Dr. Avinash - Sir isme mai appki kya help kar sakta hu sir?

Abhijeet - Ek lash ka intezam karna hoga appko!

Dr. Avinash - Sir app yeh kya bol rahe hai! I can't do it sir!

Abhijeet - But you will have to do it... App Lifeline hospital mai senior doctor hai... Appke hospital ke morgue mai koi toh unidentified, unclaimed body hogi... Appko use lake, meri gadi mai, jo uss raste par hai, usme daal kar meri gadi ko agg lagani hogi

Dr. Avinash - Agg kyu?

Abhijeet - Taki body ki koi identification na ho... Dhyan rakhiga uss body ki height kareeb 5'8 ho aur maut ki wajh jalne ke baad  pata na ki jaa sake

Dr. Avinash - Sir please sir... Mujhse nahi hoga!

Abhijeet - Dr. Avinash abhi appne hi kaha tha na ki logo ki zindagi bachane ki kasam khai thi appne... Toh samajh lijiye usi kasam ko pura karna hai appko... Bas tareka alag hai... Hazaro ki zindagi ka sawal hai... Appke alawa koi help nahi kar sakta meri

Dr. Avinash - Theek hai sir... Mai... Mai kal tak arrange karta hu

Abhijeet - Kal nahi... 1 ghante mai karna hoga... Ab tak meri team ko pata chal chuka hoga ki mai gayab hu... Unhone mujhe dhudna shuru bhi kar diya hoga... Woh uss raste par pauche isse pehle hume sab kuch plan ke mutabik set karna hoga

Dr. Avinash - Okk sir mai karta hu kuch

(Dr. Avinash started moving out of the room and just then turned back to Abhijeet to ask something)

Dr. Avinash - Sir appki family? Unke samne bhi app yeh natak karege? Unhe taklif hogi na sir!

Abhijeet - Jinke liye 1 gante ka waqt diya hai na appko wahi meri family hai... Janta hu bohat taklif hogi unhe lekin woh log mujhe aur meri duty ko samajte hai... Aur agar end mai zinda bacha toh mana lunga unhe

Dr. Avinash - Chalta hu sir... Lash gadi mai rakhne ke baad appko photo bejhta hu mai wahi se... App bata dijiyega ki sab sahi hai ya nahi... Phir mai gadi ko agg laga dunga sir

Abhijeet - Nahi nahi mai chaluga appke sath... App bas body ka arrangement kijiye... Uss raste par mai bhi jauga

Dr. Avinash - Nahi sir! Abtak appki har baat mani hai maine... Lekin appko iss bed se 2 din tak uthne toh nahi dunga mai... Iss bar app meri baat manege... Doctor hu appka... Apne patient ke saath risk nahi lunga

Abhijeet - Lekin...

Dr. Avinash - (Cutting him in between) No sir... No arguments... Doctor mai hu app nahi

Abhijeet - Okk... Photo bhejiyega... Aur uske liye koi phone yaa laptop kuch dedijiye... Nahi toh woh dhudne ke liye mujhe 'bed se utarna' padega

Dr. Avinash - Deta hu sir... Appko mai laptop deke jata hu... Apne phone se appko picture mail kar dunga... Aur 'bed se nahi utarna hai'

Abhijeet - Hahaahaha... App doctors bhi na... Nahi utruga

(Saying this Dr. Avinash left from there and worked according to their plan... Through video calling, Abhijeet told him to keep his CID batch in the body's pocket, that was already in the car and instructed him to do all other required things... Made a full proof plan to prove that Abhijeet was dead)
__________________________________________

           Half an hour later CID team reached the road and saw the most dreadful sight of their life... There was Abhijeet's car burnt to ashes with a completely burnt body inside... Praying in their heart that it should not be Abhijeet they checked it and found Abhijeet's CID burnt batch in its pocket...
          Freedy was broken completely and Pankaj and Purvi were crying their heart out... ACP sir was praying that the Dr. Salunkhe says that the DNA of the body doesn't match with Abhijeet's... But he didn't have the slightest idea that Abhijeet had already planned to send Dr. Avinash, in a disguise of a Software engineer, to the Forensic lab to change the DNA samples in the record so that the body is proven as Abhijeet's.
           And Daya... He wasn't crying at the sight because he hadn't believed that it was Abhijeet... Days later, when the DNA report came everyone was broken but not him... None of the test by Dr. Salunkhe could make him believe that Abhijeet was no more... Everytime Dr. Salunkhe told him 'Reports jooth nahi bolti daya' he replied that 'Appki reports bhi jhoot bol sakti hai sir lekin Abhijeet ke mamle mai mera dil nahi'... Everytime ACP sir told 'Daya sambhalo apne apko, tumhe iss baat ko accept karna hi hoga' Daya used to reply as 'Sach toh yeh hai sir ki Abhijeet ko kuch nahi hua... Woh wapis ayega sir, woh zaroor wapas ayega' Everytime someone told him that 'Abhijeet mar chuka hai' he used to reply 'Abhijeet zinda hai'.

To ne continued...

            So a big mystery of why Abhijeet sir is pretending dead is revealed... Other questions will also be answered soon. But this time the 'soon' won't arrive in a week... That means the next update will be a bit late... Somewhat around 15 days later i will post the chapter 9... Am so sorry but I can't help it... Exams you all know! I have also posted some other thing as a surprise gift for all of you... Do read it... Good bye only for a fortnight and then i will be back. Don't forget to leave your precious reviews.
