Heart vs Brain - Chapter 15

           So am back... Once again before time... Waise maine ek chapter mai duo scene nahi dala toh sab bolne lage! Hahaahaha... I know guys you all love reading duo... Even i enjoy writing... So here's a update with a long duo part... Enjoy

                               Chapter 15

            Leaving Avinash in Kaki's room Abhijeet started going towards his own... Today he was waiting to be there unlike last 3 months... Why? He couldn't answer it but he didn't even care to know the answer... All he wanted was, to be his brother! He knew he won't be normal around him... He still won't be talking to him but yes he couldn't deny that still he wanted to be around him... Opening the door he entered in... Daya was sleeping in an awkward position... Maybe he was sitting with nothing to do and slipped into slumber... Not wanting to disturb him Abhijeet started cooking lunch... He had to, for Daya... As Daya needed proper care and couldn't be given outside food... The unavoidable noise of utensils caused Daya to wake up... Looking around he found Abhijeet busy with his cooking and so he went there in order to help him

Daya - Boss mai help karta hu

            Abhijeet's hands stopped working but he said nothing... Receiving no answer Daya decided for himself...

Daya - Mai veggies cut karta hu

          Picking up veggies, knife and a cutting board he sat in a corner doing his work... His thoughts roaming around Abhijeet and his behavior... He was trying to figure out the reasons behind all the happenings... His unanswered questions, troubling him... He wanted to ask about it all but then he knew that it will hurt Abhijeet... He didn't want to... Abhijeet's unbearable ignorance towards him was killing him inside... 2 long months of distance and not even 20 sentences after it... They weren't like this! They never were! Without his acknowledgement he drifted into a past memory... A sweet one... A beautiful one...

                             *Flashback*
              Abhijeet was in a jolly mood today... Humming a song he entered the beauro... Wished everyone morning and switched on his laptop... Quickly he started working... He wanted to finish off his work as soon as possible... Everyone smiled looking at him... They knew the reason behind his happiness...

Freedy - (whispering to pankaj sitting beside him) Abhijeet sir ajj kitne kush hai na! Ho bhi kyu na Daya sir wapis jo aa rahe hai pure dhai mahine baad

Pankaj - Haa sir... Finally unka mission successfully katham ho gaya! Kitna miss kiya unko inn dhai mahino mai humne unko... Especially Abhijeet sir ne

Freedy - Hmm... Akhir inn dono ka din nikalta hi kaha hai jab tak ek dusre ke saath masti naa karle!

Pankaj - Ab sir inn dono ki dosti hai hi aisi! Ek dusre ke liye jaan tak dene mai ek baar bhi nahi sochte!

Freedy - Ajj bhi dekho... Daya sir wapas aa rahe hai toh Abhijeet sir ne already half day le liya... Daya sir ki chutti jo hai... Sirf report submit karne aayege!

*After 2 hours*

             Daya arrived in the beauro with a big smile on his face... Finally he was back home... Not exactly home but somewhere, where he spent more time compared to his home!

Daya - Hi everyone!

Freedy, Pankaj, Purvi - Hello sir!

Abhijeet - Aa gaye! Aur batao kaisa tha mission?

Daya - Achaa tha... Successful raha... And the best part humare kisi officer ko koi serious injury bhi nahi hui

Abhijeet - That's good

Daya - (Seeing ACP sir coming out of his cabin) Good morning sir

ACP - Morning Daya... Kaisa raha tumhara mission?

Daya - Achaa tha sir... Aur sir yaha beauro mai? Koi khaas case sir?

ACP - Wahi sab normal chize... Kuch khaas nahi... Aur on going cases ke bare mai tum kal jab duty join karoge tab case files mai se pad lena

Daya - Yes sir... (Taking out a file from his backpack) Yeh report sir

ACP - (quickly glancing through it) Okay

Abhijeet - Sir hum log jaaye?

ACP - Hum log matlab? Mission se toh Daya wapis aaya hai na! Tumhe kaha jana hai?

Abhijeet - Sir maine kal pucha tha na appse half day ke baare mai! Appne haa bhi toh kaha tha

ACP - Kab pucha tha tumne mujhse? Mujhe toh aisa kuch yaad nahi hai!

Abhijeet - Aree sir!!! App aise kaise bhul sakte ho!

ACP - Jab pucha hi nahi toh yaad kaha se rahega? Chalo no more arguments! Daya tum ghar jao and everyone else back to work!

Abhijeet - (angrily murmuring while going to his desk) Aise kaise bhul sakte hai sir! Pure plan ka popat kar diya! Roz toh kaam pe aata hu... Sunday tak ko aane ko kabhi mana nahi karta... Ek din! Ek din bhi kaha half day ki chutti mangi thi... Woh bhi cancel kardi! Sir sach mai Hitler hi hai!

ACP - (from behind) Daya apne iss dost ko bhi le jao bhai! Isne toh ek half day ke chakkar mai mujhe Hitler bana diya!

Abhijeet - (bitting his tongue when he realized that he was loud enough to be heard) Sorry sir!

ACP - (laughing at his cute expressions) Mujhe bhulne ki bimari nahi hai... Mazak kar raha tha mai! Jao... Enjoy your day both of you... Aur kal time pe aa jana

Abhijeet & Daya - Yes sir

Abhijeet - (to daya) Ab chal jaldi... Nahi toh sir phir se chutti cancel kar denge!

            Ignoring all the giggles behind them they left to enjoy their day... Enjoying their not so often break no one could say that these were senior inspectors in CID... They looked like college going besties who bunked their lectures and were carefree about the surroundings and tension free about the happenings
                       *Flashback ends*

            Watching a horror movie although they never believed in ghosts... Shopping around... Fighting over whose favorite restaurant to visit and then eating food in some new place and at last having a peaceful evening at the beach... Daya remembered how they enjoyed that day... Gazing at Abhijeet he realized how much these 3 months had changed them... Today there were no friendly fights... No leg pulling... No laughs... No complaints... If something was there then it was silence... They were so close but distance apart
              Suddenly he cut his hand with the knife... In his thoughts he had forgotten about the instrument in his hand

Daya - Aah

           Came out a small scream from his mouth as a reaction which gained him Abhijeet's attention

Abhijeet - (Coming towards Daya) Kya hua?

Daya - Nahi... Kuch nahi

          But it's not easy to escape CID's sharp shine's sharp gaze... He noticed a deep cut on Daya's finger and he quickly brought a first aid box and started dressing Daya's wound... It was bleeding profusely making Abhijeet uncomfortable

Daya - Jab mere haat se behta itna khoon nahi dekh sakte toh uss din mujhe khoon mai latpat chod kar kyu gaye the?

             Abhijeet had expected this question from that very day... But at the moment he wasn't... He once again replied Daya with silence which made Daya frustrated and angry

Daya - Abhijeet mujhe mere sawal ka jawab chahiye!

Abhijeet - Daya mai abhi tumhe kuch nahi bata...

Daya (cutting him in between) - Abhijeet mujhe sirf jawab chahiye

             He said with anger clearly visible in his eyes... But Abhijeet was again back in his silent mode which added fuel to the fire... He was looking at the floor as if admiring its design... Daya still had the knife in his hand... This time with the sharp edge in his palm... In anger Daya pressed it hard... So hard that it bruised all his palm... Looking down Abhijeet noticed blood dripping from somewhere and seeing Daya's hand he got shocked to see its condition

Abhijeet - Daya yeh... Knife chodo tum pehle

           And he quickly rushed to him to take the knife when Daya moved back still having a strong grip on the sharp edge

Abhijeet - Daya kitna khoon beh raha hai! Please knife chodo (he said worriedly)

Daya - Ab bhi uss din se kam hai (he said deeply)... Iss duniya koi zakham mujhe itna dard nahi de sakta jitna uss din tumhe mujh par goli chalate dekh hua tha! Jab tak tum mujhe puri sachayi nahi batate mai iss knife ko nahi choduga!!!

Abhijeet - Daya yeh bekar ki zid mat karo (he finally raised his voice)

Daya - Zid, dhamki, pagalpan jo kehna hai kehlo lekin yeh wada hai mera tumse ki ajj tumse sach jane bina nahi rahuga!!!

*On a deserted road*

Ratan - Salam sahab... Yeh mera dost Hiren

ACP - Jante ho Raghav ko?

Hiren - Janta hu na sahab... Apna khaas dost hai woh... Meri kholi (room) ke samne pani puri bechta hai woh

ACP - Abhi kaha milega?

Hiren - Udhar hi milega sahab... Uske thele pe

ACP - Chalo phir

*Raghav's pani puri stall*

ACP - Tumahara naam Raghav hai?

Raghav - Ji sahab

ACP - (taking him to an isolated corner) Daya ko kya khabar di thi 2 mahine pehle?

Raghav - Kon Daya sahab? App kon hai? Aur kya bol rahe ho?

ACP - Dekh natak mat kar... Mera dimag ghuma hua hai... Mujhe achi tarah se pata hai ki tu mujhe bhi janta hai aur Daya ko bhi

Raghav - Nahi sahab... Mai app logo ko kaise januga?

ACP - Acha toh tu Daya ka kabhri hai aur tu mujhe nahi janta! Aur toh aur tu Daya ko bhi nahi janta! Iske pehle ki mai tere sath kuch karu, sach sach bol kya kabhar di thi tune Daya ko?

Raghav - Appko jo karna hai karlo sahab... Mai apni jaan de dunga lekin nahi batauga... Daya sahab ne mujhe kisi ko bhi batane se mana kiya tha... Ek chor ko imandari ki jindagi di hai sahab unhone... Jisko iss duniya mai puchne wala bhi koi nahi sahab uska ajj ek apna pariwar hai... Unki wajh se... Mujhe unki wafadari apni jaan se jayada pyari hai

ACP - Aur uski jan payari hai ki nahi? Kabhri hai na... Itna toh pata chal hi gaya hoga tujhe ki Daya kidnap ho gaya hai! Use dhundne ke liye mera sach janna zaruri hai

Raghav - (after thinking for a while) Theek hai sahab batata hu mai... Daya sahab ne do mahine pehle mujhe phone kiya tha... Unko Abhijeet sahab ke bare mai pata karne ka tha... Unko lagta tha ki woh zinda hai... Maine bohot koshish ki sahab lekin kuch pata nahi chala... Phir ek din mai Hiren ke saath Kalayani chawl mai gaya... Uske bhai ke ghar... Udhar maine ek admi ko dekha jo thoda thoda Abhijeet sahab jaisa dikhta tha... Kuch confirm nahi tha toh mai uss admi ke pass nahi gaya... Hiren par mujhe pura vishwas hai isliye maine usse sach bataya aur uske bhai se puchne ko bola uss admi ke baare mai... Uske bhai ne bataya ki woh udhar hi ek kholi mai rehta hai... Bol raha tha ki jayada kisi se baat nahi karta isliye kuch khaas pata nahi uske baare mai... Bas yehi bataya tha maine Daya sahab ko... Uske baad kya hua yeh mujhe nahi pata

ACP - Theek hai... Ab tune mujhe kya bataya yeh kisi aur ko mat batana

Raghav - Sahab Daya sahab mil jayege na?

ACP - Ab bohot jald...

To be continued...

               Done with it... A long full of duo update... So what will happen next? ACP sir is close to chawl? Daya sir making Abhijeet sir say the truth? Will Abhijeet sir tell Daya sir about it? Aage kya hoga? Wait and watch! Until then review

Heart vs Brain - Chapter 14

            Hi everyone! Am back with a another chapter... Once again before time... This one is a long one... Happy!? Now go on and read will see you at the end... Enjoy...

                              Chapter 14

*Criminal hideout*

Man 2 - Boss yeh raha uss jagah ka blueprint

Boss - Theek hai, kon kaha se andar jayega, kya karega sab barabar plan karo aur mujhe batao

Man 1 - Yes boss

(Just then Raghu's phone started ringing)

Raghu - Boss kabhri ka phone hai

Man 2 - Speaker pe daal

Raghu (switching on the speaker) - Bol kya hua

Kabhri - Wahi woh ACP dimag ka dahi kar raha hai! Kitna mushkil hai uspar nazar rakhna iss baat ka andaza bhi nahi laga sakte tum log

Boss - Pata hai yaar... Kuch pata chala ki nahi tu yeh bata!

Kabhri - Pata toh chala hai... ACP ne uss din ke phone records nikalwaye the... Jis din Abhijeet mara tha

Raghu - Acha hua yeh humne pehle hi socha tha ki woh aisa kar sakta hai aur isliye phones lekar nahi gaye the

Abhijeet - Kuch mila kya ACP ko phone records mai?

Kabhri - Records ke hisab se uss din Dr. Avinash bhi waha par tha... ACP ko ab uss par shak hai

Man 1 - Yeh Avinash wahi hai na jo Daya ka ilaj kar raha hai?

Kabhri - Haa wahi hai

Raghu - Ab iss Avinash ka Abhijeet se kya lena dena!

Kabhri - Mujhe kya pata!

Boss - Sawal toh ye hai ki Avinash uss din uss raste par kar kya raha tha?

Abhijeet - Dekho ab ACP ko uss par shak toh ho hi gaya hai... Intezar karte hai ACP ke Avinash ko pakad ne ka... Woh ek baar usse pakad le apne app pata chal jayega ki uska in sab se kya lena dena hai

Kabhri - Mujhe bhi lagta hai aisa hi karna chahiye... Aur ek baat... Bich mai ACP ko ek phone aaya tha... Kisi cafe mai gaya tha woh salunkhe se milne... Uske piche gaya toh tha mai lekin kuch sun nahi paya

Boss - Theek hai... Tu ACP pe nazar rakhta rah... Aur woh jo kuch bhi karta hai bata hume

Kabhri - Theek hai... Bye

           When they cut the call they noticed that Abhijeet was looking a but distracted

Man 1 - Karan kya hua tujhe?

Abhijeet - Nahi kuch nahi... Woh bas thode chakkar aa rahe hai

Boss - Woh sab chodo! Pehle Daya ko kaise dhudna hai woh socho

             They started discussing further when Abhijeet was about to fall when just in time he held the table

Man 2 - Boss iski halat jayada kharab lag rahi hai

Boss - Hmm... Aise toh yeh kuch kaam bhi nahi karega aur naa hum kuch kar payege! Tu jaa... Tere ghar jaa!

Abhijeet - Theek hai boss... Mai jata hu! Mai kal tak aa jayega!

             Coming out of the hideout he walked some distance and made a call... Deciding to meet the person at some place he quickly rode his bike to that place

Abhijeet - Yeh abhi tak aaye kyu nahi! Ek toh inki wajhse waha se aana pada, bahana bana kar ki tabayat kharab hai, nahi toh unhe shak ho jata... Pata nahi kya plan kar rahe honge woh log!

Avinash - (just arriving to the place) Boliye sir? Appne mujhe yaha kyu bulaya?

Abhijeet - Dekhiye Dr. Avinash mujhe appse bohat zaruri baat karni hai

Avinash - Ji sir boliye!

Abhijeet - ACP sir ko yeh pata chal chuka hai ki mai zinda hu... Unhone uss din ke phone records nikalwaye hai aur ab unhe yeh bhi pata hai ki uss din, uss raste par app bhi the... Unhe app par shak ho gaya hai!

Avinash - ACP sir ko shak ho gaya hai! Ab mai kya karu? (getting nervous)

Abhijeet - Appko darne ki koi zarurat nahi hai... Appne kuch galat nahi kiya! Meri jaan bachana gunah nahi hai! Problem yeh hai ki agar ACP sir ne app se puch tach ki toh sir ko sach pata chal jayega... Unke samne toh mai nahi bach sakta... App kaise bachege!

Avinash - Toh ab kya karu sir mai?

Abhijeet - Bachne ka sirf ek tarika hai... App unke haat hi na lage... Ab jab tak yeh case solve nahi ho jata app ko underground rehna hoga

Avinash - Lekin kaha sir? Mai Mumbai se bahar chala jau?

Abhijeet - App Mumbai se bahar jaa hi nahi payege! App ghar aur hospital mai nahi hai toh ab tak toh ACP sir ne sare check posts par inform kar diya hoga ki appko jaha dekhe custody mai lele

Avinash - Toh ab kya kare sir?

Abhijeet - App mere saath chaliye... Mai appke rehne ka intezam karta hu... App bas itna yaad rakhiye ki app bimar hai

Avinash - Mai bimar hu!?

Abhijeet - Haa app bimar hai!

Avinash - Lekin mai bimar nahi hu!

Abhijeet - Maine kaha na app bimar hai... Matlab app bimar hai! Aayiye bike pe baithiye

Avinash - Hmm (murmuring) Ek doctor ko zabardasti bimar kar diya woh bhi pata nahi kyu!
_____________________________________________

*Chawl*

             Abhijeet was tapping on a door when Kaki opened it... Dr. Avinash was standing beside him looking like a most confused person on the planet

Kaki - Aree Karan beta aao... Itne dino baad yaad aayi kaki ki! (with a angry expression)

            (Dr. Avinash was even more confused hearing the name Karan... But then he chose to keep quiet as he knew Abhijeet would be having some plan behind it)

Abhijeet - Sorry na kaki... Woh thoda busy tha... Isse miliye... Yeh mera dost hai Ravi

Kaki - Namaste Ravi beta... Aao na andar aao

Abhijeet - Kaki mai na Ravi ko andar hi chodne aaya hu

Kaki & Avinash (together) - Matlab?

Abhijeet - Matlab yeh ki kaki actually Ravi Mumbai mai akela rehta hai... Woh ek plumber hai

Avinash (exclaiming in between) - Plumber!!!

Abhijeet (with a stern expression) - Haa, plumber! Haa toh kaki mai yeh bol raha tha ki iski tabayat thodi kharab hai... Thodi nahi bohot kharab hai! Aur khayal rakhne wala koi hai nahi toh mai isse apne saath le aaya... Ab mai toh kudh ghar mai nahi rehta matlab ghar se jayada bahar rehta hu toh mai iska khayal kaise rakhuga! Isliye kya yeh appke ghar mai... Matlab agar appko koi pareshani nahi ho toh...

Kaki - Pareshani toh hai... Magar isse nahi (indicating towards Avinash) pareshani mujhe tere is 'appko koi pareshani toh nahi hai' se hai!

Abhijeet - Kya kaki app bhi! Thank you so much! Appko nahi pata appne mera kitna bada tension dur kar diya... Once again thank you so much!

Kaki - Aur ek baar tune thank you bola na toh mai Ravi ko toh ghar mai rakh lungi lekin tujhe bahar nikal dungi (angrily she said)! Beta yeh ghar jitna mera hai utna hi tera bhi hai... Yeh 'thank you' ki zarurat nahi hai!

Abhijeet - Thank you toh mai boluga... Ravi ko ghar mai rehne dene ke liye nahi toh, mera saath dene ke liye... Uss waqt jab mujhe appki sabse jayada zarurat thi (remembering the day when he came home after firing on Daya... The way kaki supported him that day was something that gave him sooth like nothing else) Chalo kaki... Chalta hu... Aur Ravi agar koi bhi zarurat ho toh mujhe bolna... Ghar ke bahar mat jana aur koi bhi problem ho toh mujhe phone karna... Bye
_____________________________________________

*CID beauro*

ACP - Yeh Dr. Avinash gayab kidhar ho gaye! Ab toh mujhe pura vishwas hai unka inn sab mai koi toh involvement hai! Jab se gayab hue hai kisi ko nazar nahi aaye... Kab tak chupe rahege! Kabhi na kabhi toh bahar aana hi padega na... Tab tak mai yeh pata karta hu Daya akhir uss din uss cliff par gaya kyu tha? (Thinking for a while) Ratan help kar sakta meri iss sawal ka jawab dhudne mai

            (Deciding he picked up his phone and called Ratan, his trusted informer)

ACP - Sun ek kaam hai tere liye

Ratan - Bolo na sahab... Kya hua?

ACP - Kuch pata karna hai mujhe... Lekin itna yaad rakhna ki yeh baat kisi ko pata nahi chalni chahiye ki maine tujhe aisa koi kaam diya hai... Meri team ko bhi nahi pata... Agar kisi ko pata chala na toh...

Ratan - Aree sahab! App kyu tension lere ho! Ajj tak kabhi apun ne appka koi bhi secret leak hone diya hai kya?! Nahi pata chalega sahab... App bas bolo kya karne ka hai

ACP - Tujhe yeh pata karna hai ki Daya 2 mahine pehle uss din uss cliff par gaya kyu tha! Samjha tu? Matlab Daya ko kisi ne koi kabhar di thi yaa phir kisi ne milne bulaya ho... Jo kuch bhi tha pata karo... Waise maine uske phone records nikalwaye the... Usme toh kuch bhi ajeeb nahi mila mujhe

Ratan - Ho jayega sahab... Mai pata karta hai kyu gaye the Daya sahab udhar

*After an 3/4 hours*

Ratan - Sahab maine pata karne ki koshish ki... Yeh toh pata nahi chal raha ki Daya sahab cliff par kyu gaye the... Lekin yeh zaroor pata chala hai ki cliff par jane se pehle Daya sahab kisi chawl mai gate the... Unko, unke kisi informer ne kabhar di thi... Uss informer ka naam Raghav hai... Kya bola tha woh Daya sahab ko yeh apun ko nahi pata... Apun ko lagta hai ki uss chawl mai hi Daya sahab ko aisa kuch mila hoga jiski wajh se woh cliff par gaye

ACP - Theek hai... Kaam ki kabhar di hai tune... Iss Raghav ka naam to tha Daya ke phone records mai... Mujhe ajeeb nahi laga toh maine socha nahi... Raghav ko janta hai? Hai kya tere network mai?

Ratan - Mai toh nahi janta sahab... Lekin mera ek dost hai... Woh janta hai usko... Uski ki hi help se pata lagaya tha Raghav ke bare mai... Bolo toh baat karta hai mai usse?

ACP - Kar tu usse baat... Tu aur tera dost dono milna mujhe 1 ghante mai... Wahi apni humesha ki jagh pe

Ratan - Theek hai sahab... Aata hai apun apne dost ke saath... Rakhta hai sahab

ACP - Hmm... Bye

(After cutting the call)

ACP - Raghav... Ab tum hi pauchaoge mujhe Daya aur Abhijeet tak

To be continued...

            Hash... Finally done... So now ACP sir knows about the informer of Daya who informed Daya about the chawl... ACP sir is very near to reaching the chawl! Abhijeet sir's plan is in danger... Ab kya hoga?! Wait and watch... For now I have given a long update... Now its your turn to review.

Heart vs Brain - Chapter 13

             Hey! Am back! Earlier than my time!!! Happy now? First of all i would like to thank all of you for the wonderful response that you gave me for the previous chapter! Thank you so much for all the reviews and thanks to the silent readers as well... After all the praise you all showered me with i finally don't think of that chapter as boring one... Thank you... Chalo i won't waste much of your time talking... First read the chapter

                             Chapter 13

*CID beauro*

          All the cops were busy in one or the other tasks... Pankaj and purvi were talking to informers... Freedy was contacting all the police stations of Mumbai and telling them to spread the word that Daya was missing and everyone should keep looking for him... ACP sir was going through the CCTV footages only in case they missed out something while looking at it for the first time...

Freedy (after putting down the phone) - Sir kahi se bhi koi lead nahi mil rahi sir! Kya kare? Kaise dhunde Daya sir ko?

Aakash - Sir mujhe toh yeh samaj nahi aa raha ki Daya ko kidnap kiya kyu hai? Matlab woh chahta kya hai! Agar koi badla lena chahta hai toh hospital se kidnap karne ki kya zarurat thi! Agar woh baad me bhar se karta toh zayada aasan hota uske liye

ACP - Dekho Aakash, Daya ko 2 mahine pehle goli lagna... Uska coma mai jana aur hosh mai aate hi uska kidnap hojana yeh saaf batata hai ki uss kidnapper ko Daya se koi toh kathra hai

Freedy - Sir hume ab tak nahi pata ki Daya sir uss din uss hill par gaye kyu the! Shayad unhe aisa kuch pata ho jo mujrim ke liye problem kadhi karde

ACP - Bilkul sahi freedy... Daya ko lagi 2 mahine pehle ki goli aur daya ki ab ki kidnapping interconnected hai

Pankaj - Toh phir sir woh 2 mahine shant kyu baitha raha? Daya sir ke hosh mai aane par hi kyu?

Aakash - Jab tak Daya coma mai tha usse Daya se koi kathra mahsus nahi hua... Lekin Daya jab achanak hosh mai aagaya toh uske kathra ban gaya

(Just then ACP sir's phone started ringing... It was Salunkhe sir's phone)

ACP - Haa bol?

Salunkhe - Boss mujhe tumhe abhi ke abhi milna hai... Akele mai... Beauro ke niche jo cafe hai waha mile?

ACP - Theek hai... Mai aata hu... Bye

ACP (to everyone) - Mujhe ek kaam hai mai aata hu... Tum log kaam chalu rakho... Daya ke bare mai koi bhi lead mile toh mujhe turant inform karna

Freedy - Yes sir

*Cafe*

(ACP sir grabbed a corner table safe enough so that no one could easily hear their talks when Dr. Salunkhe arrived)

ACP - Bol salunkhe? Kya hua?

Salunkhe - DNA test ki report aa gayi hai... Tumhara shak sahi nikla boss... Mai abhijeet ke ghar se jo uska comb laya tha uska aur uss lash ka DNA match nahi karta! Woh lash abhijeet ki nahi hai. Humara abhijeet zinda hai boss!!! (He exclaimed with happiness clearly evident from his voice)

ACP - Yeh tune mujhe sunayi ajj tak ki best khabar hai salunkhe... Thank you so much!!!

Salunkhe - I know yaar... Lekin agar abhijeet zinda hai toh phir hai kaha? Woh hume mila kyu nahi? Aur toh aur woh lash kiski thi?

ACP - Abhi inme se ek bhi sawal ka jawab nahi hai mere pass... Par jald hi pata kar lunga

Salunkhe - Theek hai tum apni investigation chalu rakho aur mujhe updates dete rahna

ACP - Hmm

Salunkhe - Daya ka kuch pata chala?

ACP - Abhi abhi ek lead mili hai

Salunkhe - Kya mila hai?

ACP - Tune hi toh lead di hai! Mujhse kyu puch raha hai!

Salunkhe - Maine konsi lead di? Tum kehna kya chahte ho?

ACP - Abhi toh tune mujhe DNA report batayi... Jiska matlab yeh hai ki abhijeet zinda hai!

Salunkhe - Aree uska Daya ki kidnapping se kya lena dena! Ae... Ek minute... Tum kahi yeh toh nahi kehna chahte ki Daya ki kidnapping ka Abhijeet se koi relation hai

ACP - Ab samjha tu!

Salunkhe - Aisa kaise ho sakta hai! Boss Abhijeet toh zinda hokar bhi hume nahi mila aur tum bol rahe ho ki Daya ki kidnapping se uska koi toh connection hai!

ACP - Yaad hai salunkhe daya jab hosh mai aaya tha, maine usse pucha tha ki usse goli kisne mari... Usne Abhijeet ka naam liya aur phir apni hi baat se mukar gaya... Tab hum iss baat ko lekar confused the, kyuki humare hisab se abhijeet 3 mahine pehle mar chuka tha... Lekin ab jab Abhijeet zinda hai toh iska matlab saaf hai ki Daya par goli Abhijeet ne chalayi thi... Aur iska matlab yeh hai ki abhijeet ne daya ko kidnap kiya ho yaa na kiya ho Abhijeet ka inn sab se koi toh lena dena hai

Salunkhe - Yeh tum kya bol rahe ho! Abhijeet Daya par goli kyu chalaye ga?! Nahi yaar mai nahi maan sakta ki Abhijeet Daya ki jaan lene ki koshish karega! I cannot believe this... Jis insan ne apni chati par goli khayi hai Daya ki jan bachane tumhe lagta hai woh Daya par goli chala sakta hai?

ACP - Mere dil se puche toh naa... Lekin agar dimag se puche toh haa

Salunkhe - Nahi boss... Mai iss baat par vishwas hi nahi kar sakta... Daya ko musibat se bacha ne ke liye Abhijeet kis had tak jaa sakta hai yeh maine bhi dekha hai aur tumne bhi! Mujhse, tumse, team se, puri duniya se aur yaha tak ki apne app se bhi lada hai woh Daya ke liye! Tum kehte ho usne Daya par goli chalayi!

ACP - Janta hai salunkhe... Ajj tak kitni baar Abhijeet Daya ke liye aur Daya Abhijeet ke liye mere khilaf kadhe hue hai... Pata hai mai kabhi naraz kyu nahi hota? ACP Prayduman ko toh bohat gussa aata hai yeh dekh kar ki woh ek dusre ke liye sabooto ko nazarandaz kar dete hai lekin ek baap kush hota hai yeh dekh kar ki uska ek beta uske dusre bete ke liye kis had tak jaa sakta hai

Salunkhe - Ek baat bolu? Hum sab kahi na kahi ek insan mai do insan hai... Ek woh jo hum puri duniya ko dikhate hai as a CID officer... Strong, sirf duty se matlab rakhne wala, pathar dil aur ek aisa insan jo sirf dimag se sochta hai. Aur dusra woh jise sirf hum jante hai as our own self... Caring, jise apno ki parwa ho, jise puri duniya ko chod kabhi toh bas apno ke liye jine ka dil karta ho aur jo dil se sochta ho... Hum inn dono ko mix nahi hone dena chahte... Kabhi hone bhi nahi dete par kabhi kabhi aisi situation aati hai jab humare hi dil aur dimag mai ek jung shuru ho jati hai... Humare dono roop ek dusre ke khilaf kadhe ho jate hai... Us waqt humara behaviour hume kudh samjh nahi aata! Tumhare saath aisa kyu nahi hota?

ACP - Kisne kaha nahi hota?! Bas farq itna hai ki dil aur dimag ke bich ki jung mai dil ko kabhi jitne nahi deta... Chal chalta hu... Abhijeet ko dhudna hai... Daya apne app mil jayega

Salunkhe - Ek baat bata kar jao... Agar tum jo keh rahe ho woh sahi hai toh Abhijeet ke saath kya karoge tum?

ACP - Pata nahi... Iss waqt mujhe pata nahi! Agar mujhe kuch pata hai toh woh bas yeh hai ki once again my Brain will be the winner in the battle of Heart vs Brain
__________________________________________

*Chawl*

             There was silence all around in the room... Abhijeet was working on something that looked like a chart and Daya was lying in the corner still tied up... Daya badly wanted to start a conversation as this silence between them was so unusual... So thinking about what to say he came to the easiest conclusion...

Daya - Abhijeet pani do na... Pyas lagi hai

          Abhijeet got up from his place, filled a glass of water and kept it near him... In the whole process not a single word came out of his mouth and neither did he look at Daya

Daya - Haat toh kholo! Piuga kaise?

           Abhijeet looked confused about if he should actually open his hands or not... A part of him told him that Daya won't run away! He won't do it and the other part told him that he was a CID officer and it would be very silly to let go of him this way... Daya understood Abhijeet's confusion from his expressions...

Daya - Chinta mat karo boss... Bhaguga nahi (he said as if telling a secret)

           And Abhijeet quickly opened his hands without any further thought... Grabbing the glass Daya started drinking water in slow motion... As slow as he could... He had to find some other way of making Abhijeet talk to him... When he couldn't find any other topic to talk he left the idea dejected.... Once he kept down the glass Abhijeet once again picked up the rope which shocked Daya

Daya - Boss phir se bandho ge? Mat bandho na its so uncomfortable! Mai nahi jauga na kahi... Promise!

           The word 'promise' made Abhijeet believe Daya that he won't escape and the way he said that, just like a two year old, trying to convince his parents that he won't eat the chocolate now and so they can buy him one, brought a small smile on his face. Seeing Abhijeet smile, finally, Daya was satisfied with his efforts when Abhijeet started going back to his previous position... When Daya asked...

Daya - Pair khol lu?

Abhijeet - Hmm (he said nodding his head in yes)

             And finally Daya got to hear his voice! Going back to his place Abhijeet was feeling far more better now... It was after days or maybe even months that he smiled genuinely... Although a small one it was a real one... The uncomfort he felt with Daya had suddenly disappeared... He wondered how Daya could make him feel better even without doing anything... He felt his tensions leaving him and peace taking its place... The last time he was so peaceful was 3 months ago... The guilt was obviously there that didn't let him face Daya normally but Daya's gestures where some how trying to pull him out of all his pains! FRIENDSHIP they say VERY PRECIOUS he said...

          ACP sir was sitting alone in his cabin... With one hand on his chin and another one rotating the paper weight... The typical ACP Prayduman style.

ACP (in his thoughts) - Abhijeet ne apni gadi jhaad se thoki... Lekin phir bhi uska accident toh hua hi hai na... Usse chot toh lagi hi hogi! Aur gadi ki halat dekh kar saaf pata chalta hai ki chot zayda hogi... Theek toh hoga na woh (he worried). Iilaj karwane kisi toh hospital yaa clinic gaya hoga woh! Nahi hospital nahi... Mujhe ache se yaad hai uss din hospitals ki strike thi... Aur mujhe nahi lagta woh iss halat mai hoga ki kudh kahi jaa sake... Toh sirf ek hi tarika hai... Kisi ne usko kisi personal clinic yaa kisi doctor ke paas pauchaya hoga! Agar mujhe woh admi mil jaye toh bohat kuch pata chal sakta hai... Aur uss admi ke bare mobile company batayege!

           Picking up his phone he quickly dialed a number

Operater - Yes, how can we help you?

ACP - Mai CID se ACP Prayduman bol raha hu... Mujhe yeh pata karna hai ki March 4th ko raat 11 se 2 ke bich Tilak road (forest road) kitne mobile phones active the?

Operater - Sure sir... Abhi batata hu sir (after a while) Sir 4th March ko raat 11 se 2 ke bich Tilak road par 18 phones active the sir... Mai unke numbers aur details appko mail karta hu sir

ACP - Okk

            Checking the mail he went through the list and one name shocked ACP sir!

ACP - Dr. Avinash!!!

To be continued...

             ACP sir now knows that Dr. Avinash was present there that day! Now what? Lets see... Everything will be revealed slowly! Am done with my part and its your turn now... You all know what to do review!!!

Heart vs Brain - Chapter 12

          Hi am back! After 1 long month! Missed me? I did miss you all a lot... But as i said i will be back by Diwali am back on Diwali... Chalo now go on and read... But first itself am warning you all that this chapter is very boring... By very boring i mean very very boring! Now first a recap as i have come back after a long break...

RECAP -
(In the flashback part)
          The story started 3 months ago when Abhijeet's friend Rajeev sent him a letter which told him to fight against some terrorists who were planning a attack on Mumbai... Rajeev died while saving the city from those terrorists and told Abhijeet to catch them all... Abhijeet started investigating the case but the 'gaddar' from their own department came to know about it and informed the terrorists... They tried killing him on the forest road where Abhijeet himself dashed his car onto the the tree and then was saved by Dr. Avinash... With the help of Dr. Avinash Abhijeet proved himself dead to the CID team and the terrorists so that he could investigate the case properly... Daya didn't believe this and one day he finally finds Abhijeet with the goons... Situation forces Abhijeet to kill Daya and although not wanting it he fired on Daya... His guilt forces him to decide that he will surrender once his mission is over...

(Present)
         Abhijeet has fired on Daya due to some unknown reason... Daya was in coma for 2 months but now is back in his sences... Dr. Avinash who is now treating Daya is the same doctor who saved Abhijeet then... Daya spelled it out that Abhijeet fired on him but then denied his own words in order to save Abhijeet... Abhijeet doesn't want Daya to tell the team that he is alive as it will be a threat to his plan... Some goons are planning something wrong and have also decided to kill Daya as he is a threat to them too... While Daya was unconscious in the hospital Abhijeet kidnapped him... ACP sir is doubtful about Daya's behaviour from the time Daya came to conciousnes from coma and has decided to investigate the matter... He has figured it out that what happened with Daya 2 months ago is somehow linked to what happened to Abhijeet 3 months ago... No one else but Dr. Salunkhe knows about his plans

                            Chapter 12

           ACP sir was walking on the forest road looking out for something that could help him find out the truth... After hours of hardwork he had found nothing! It was Sr. Insp Abhijeet's plan after all! How could someone crack it down so easily... Wait! 'Someone'? ACP sir was no someone! He was that one guy who held the hands of his team and had showed them the path to light when there was darkness all around... He was that one person who taught his team to fight till the last breath and win the battle... No one could crack down Abhijeet's plan unless the man was ACP Prayduman... After all these years of hardwork what Abhijeet called as his biggest achievement was to be referred to as 'right hand of ACP Prayduman'! Something that made him proud of himself...

ACP - (Thinking) Sab kuch itna sahi hokar bhi mujhe kuch gadbad kyu lag rahi hai! Pata nahi kyu aisa lag raha hai jaise kuch toh hai... Jo nazro ke samne hokar bhi nazar nahi aa raha! Hmm... Dekhte hai kya hua hoga uss din yaha... Abhijeet apne ghar jaa raha tha... Uska ghar iss taraf hai... Raste mai Abhijeet ki gadi iss ped se takrai... Lekin kyu!? Yeh rasta pehle hi itna sunsan hai... Adhi raat ko toh aur bhi koi nahi hoga! Koi pothole bhi nahi hai, yaha tak ki speed breaker bhi nahi hai... Akhir aisa kya hua ki Abhijeet ki gadi waha raste se niche utar ke ped se takra gayi? Gadi ke breaks bhi fail nahi the... Breaks!!! (He took out some photographs from his pocket... Those were the ones they took that day when they found Abhijeet dead... Shuffling the photographs he took out the one that gave him the perfect angle of the car, the road and the tree to which Abhijeet's car was dashed) Aisa kaise ho sakta hai. Oh god! Yeh maine pehle kyu nahi socha!

(Just then his phone started ringing... It was Dr. Avinash's phone)

Avinash - Sir woh ek problem ho gayi hai sir

ACP - Kya hua? (with fear in his voice) Daya theek toh hai na?

Avinash - Haa haa sir woh theek hai... Lekin, lekin woh hospital mai nahi, nahi hai

ACP - Hospital mai nahi hai? Kehna kya chahte hai app? Hospital mai nahi hai toh kaha hai?

Avinash - Sir woh, woh kisi ne unko kidnap kar liya sir

ACP - Daya kidnap hogaya! Aise kaise kidnap ho gaya? Aree itne bade hospital mai se koi kisi patient ko utha ke le gaya aur kisi ko pata bhi nahi chala!!! Security se kahiye ki sare darwaze band kare... Hospital mai se koi bahar nahi jayega! Understand?

Avinash - Yes sir... Abhi karwata hu sir

ACP - Mai pohach raha hu adhe ghante mai

(Saying this he disconnected the call and immediately drove to the hospital, informing the team on the way)

*Hospital*

         Team and ACP sir reached there in a while and started investigating... No one knew how Daya disappeared... CCTV cameras gave them no clue... The only thing that told them that Daya was kidnapped was the very fact that he wasn't conscious when it all happened and so he couldn't go anywhere on his own... They were checking Daya's room when someone came in...

Man - Hi Daya! Sorry... Sorry woh mai Daya se milne aaya tha... Shayad galat kamre mai aa gaya... Mai chalta hu

Freedy - Nahi yeh Daya sir ka hi room hai... Lekin app hai kon?

Man - Mera naam Aakash hai... Mai Daya ka dost hu... Hum police training mai saath the... Woh mujhe usse milna tha... Woh kaha hai?

Pankaj - Woh Daya sir kidnap ho gaye hai aur hum wahi investigate kar rahe hai

Aakash - Kya! Daya kidnap ho gaya... Aise kaise kidnap ho gaya!

ACP - Dekho Aakash tum please bahar baitho... Hum pata kar rahe hai kya hua hai

Aakash - Ji sir

(After a while)

ACP - Haa Aakash bolo... Kuch kaam tha Daya se?

Aakash - Nahi sir kaam toh kuch nahi tha... Woh actually sir mai Crime branch mai inspector hu sir... Yeh mera ID... Woh actually mai 2 mahino se mission par tha... Jab wapas aaya toh pata chala ki daya coma mai tha aur abhi usse hosh aaya hai... Mai bas usse milne aa gaya

ACP - Acha okk... Jab Daya hume milega hum tumhe inform kar denge... Abhi tum jao

Aakash - Sir please, kya mai app logo ki help kar sakta hu Daya ko dhundne mai? Sir mujhe 1 hafte ki chutti mili hai sir, mission se wapas aane par... Sir ghar pe baitha rahuga toh daya ki chinta mai restless rahuga... Please sir can i join you all in investigation of this case?

ACP - Hmm... Theek hai... If you insist

Aakash - Thank you sir

(After sometime ACP sir was standing alone in the parking lot of the hospital when salunkhe sir approached him)

Salunkhe - Kya hua? Yaha akele kyu khade ho?

ACP - Kuch nahi... Bas kuch soch raha tha

Salunkhe - 'Kuch nahi' toh tum kabhi nahi karte! Kya soch rahe ho?

ACP - Abhijeet ke baare mai

Salunkhe - Abhijeet ke bare mai!? Aree haa tum woh uss raste par gaye the na... Kuch pata chala kya? Yeh Daya ke kidnap hone ki tension mai puchna hi bhul gaya mai!

ACP - Pata toh chala hai... Lekin usse kuch sabit nahi hota

Salunkhe - Lekin mila kya hai?

ACP - Yeh photo dekh (showing him the same photo he was seeing there on the forest road)

Salunkhe - Haa toh kya? Mujhe toh kuch nazar nahi aa raha issme

ACP - Salunkhe mujhe ek baat bata... Suppose tu ek raste pe drive kar raha hai... Moderate speed se... Rasta bilkul khali hai... Kisi reason se tera gadi se control chut jata hai... Tu kya karega? Or better say tera immediate response kya hoga?

Salunkhe - Mai break maruga!

ACP - Exactly! Jab abhijeet ka kisi reason se gadi par se control chut gaya toh phir abhijeet ko break marna chahiye tha! Lekin nahi, abhijeet ne aisa nahi kiya

Salunkhe - Tumhe kaise pata usne break nahi mara?

ACP - Iss photo se... Ek gadi jab speed se jati hui achanak break maregi toh raste par tyre marks toh aayege hi... Maan lo ki abhijeet ki gadi skit hoke bhi pad se takra gayi lekin phir bhi agar breaks mare hai toh tyre marks toh aane hi chahiye na! Lekin yaha nahi aaye... Matalb abhijeet ne break mara hi nahi... Aur iska matlab...

Salunkhe - Abhijeet gadi rokna hi nahi chahta tha! Lekin kyu? Matalb abhijeet suicide karna chahta tha?

ACP - Nahi salunkhe... Mai kuch bhi believe kar sakta hu lekin yeh nahi ki abhijeet suicide kar sakta hai... Kabhi nahi!

Salunkhe - Lekin Prayduman baat toh ek hi hai na! Suicide ho yaa accident abhijeet ki maut toh hui hai na

ACP - Haa manta hu hi abhi koi saboot yeh prove nahi karta ki abhijeet zinda hai, lekin agar hum jo soch rahe hai woh sahi hai toh mujhe pura vishwas hai ki abhijeet zinda hai... Aur rahi saabit karne ki baat toh uska tarika toh mere paas hai hi

Salunkhe - Kya tarika hai?

ACP - Abhijeet ke ghar jaakar uska comb yaa phir brush aisa kuch bhi saaman lekar aa aur uska DNA test kar... Agar uss lash ka aur uske ghar se laye saman ka DNA match nahi hua toh sabit ho jayega ki woh abhijeet nahi hai

Salunkhe - Lekin DNA test toh kiya na maine!

ACP - Haa kiya tha... Lekin ab mai dawe ke saath keh sakta hu ki iss baar abhijeet ke ghar se laye saman ka DNA aur uss laash ka DNA match nahi karega

Salunkhe - I hope tumhari baat sach ho aur abhijeet zinda ho

ACP - Achi khabar sunana salunkhe! Chal tu jaa... Jo kaha hai woh kar aur mai Daya ko dhundta hu

(Meanwhile Dr. Avinash came there)

Avinash - Kya hua sir? App yaha parking mai?

ACP - Haa woh kuch kaam tha... App yaha kya rahe hai? Maine kaha tha na ki jab tak mai keh nahi deta koi hospital se bahar nahi niklega!

Avinash - Sorry sir lekin mujhe jana padega... Mere ek patient ki halat achanak kharab ho gayi hai sir and i need to go... Please sir... I know you will understand

ACP - Theek hai jayiye app

Avinash - Thank you sir

*Criminal hideout*

(Man 1 came running to a boss who was discussing something with his men)

Boss - Kya hua?

Man 1 - Boss bohot badi gadbad ho gayi boss!

Man 3 (Abhijeet disguised as Karan) - Kya hua kya hai?

Man 1 - Aree woh uska phone aaya tha!

Man 4 (Raghu) - Kon uska?

Man 1 - Aree wohi apna khabri jo CID pe nazar rakhe hue hai har pal!

Boss - Kya bola woh?

Man 1 - Boss ACP ko shak ho gaya hai! ACP ko lagta hai ki woh abhijeet tha na... Woh zinda hai!

Boss - Kya abhijeet zinda hai? Aree aise kaise zinda hai! Maine kudh dekha tha usko uss gadi mai marte hue!

Raghu - Boss ACP ko sirf shak hua hai... Humne kudh use marte dekha tha! Hum kyu uske shak pe vishwas kare?

Boss - Pagal hai tu! Aree woh ACP Prayduman hai! ACP Prayduman! Usse aise hi kisi baat pe shak nahi hota!!! Aur ab jab usse shak ho gaya hai na toh woh insan toh mare hue abhijeet ko bhi zinda kar dega!!!

Abhijeet - Boss sahi bol rahe ho! ACP ko halke mai nahi le sakte... Aur usse bhi badi baat agar abhijeet zinda hai toh usse humare bare mai bohat kuch pata hai... Marne ke pehle toh investigate bhi kar raha tha humare bare mai... ACP ko toh waqt lagega sach tak pohachne mai lekin tab tak abhijeet ka kya kare?!

Boss - Sahi bol raha hai yeh! Uss Daya ka tension kam tha jo yeh Abhijeet aur ACP ka naya tension aa gaya! Yeh teeno kabhi shanti se jine hi nahi denge hume! (After thinking for a while) Theek hai... Ab ACP hi madat karega humari Abhijeet tak pohachne mai... Dhud raha hai na woh usse... Dhundne do! Ek baar woh abhijeet ko dhud le hum un dono ko maar denge!

Man 1 - Sahi hai boss

Boss - Usko bol CID walo pe nazar rakhta rahe... Khaas kar ACP pe... Uski ek bhi move miss nahi honi chahiye!

Man 1 - Yes boss

*Chawl (After an hour)*

          Daya was back in his sences only to discover himself tied up in a corner... Looking around he found nobody around and so started struggling with his ropes... When he couldn't free himself he started to think what happened...

Daya (thinking) - Mai yaha paucha kaise? Mai toh hospital mai tha aur phir nurse ne mujhe behoshi ki dawa di... Uske baad sidha idhar... Kisne kidnap kiya hoga mujhe aur kyu! Aur kiya toh kiya... Kidnap karke koi aise room mai rakhta hai kya kisiko!!! Aaspass itni aawaz aa rahi hai lagta hai jaise koi chawl ho... Akhir chahta kya hai yeh?

Abhijeet (entering into the room then) - Tumhari safety

Daya - Abhijeet!!!

Abhijeet - Am sorry Daya... Mai janta hu meri galti... Yaa sach kahu toh galtiya mafi ke layak nahi hai... Mai tujhse kahuga bhi nahi ki mujhe maaf karde... Mai toh kudh apne app ko maaf nahi kar pata tujhse kaise expect karu! Ajj tak itna vishwas kiya hai na mujhpe... Bas thoda aur karle... Haa tere vishwas ke layak nahi hu mai lekin phir bhi bas ek baat maan le meri... Yaha se jane ki zid mat karna (saying so much he didn't even look into Daya's eyes... He just couldn't... His guilt didn't allow him to make an eye contact with Daya... Teary eyes and guilty heart had been his constant companion since that day... And today he felt as if it was easier to face the deadliest criminals than facing his brother)

Daya - (looking lost) Pura ek mahina tumhe dhunda tha boss! Puri duniya ke khilaf jake! Mujhe nahi pata tumhari kya majbori hai... Tumse dur jana kabhi nahi chaha nahi maine, ajj bhi nahi jauga... Mujhe kisi sawal ka jawab nahi chahiye boss... Tum mere paas ho... Theek ho... Mai kush hu!

Abhijeet - (facing the opposite side with tears flowing down his eyes) Itna acha kyu hai tu daya? Todhi toh nafrat karle mujhse! Mujhse itna pyar karke mujhe apne app se nafrat karne par majbor kar raha hai tu

Daya - Tumhine toh kaha tha ki 'mujhse nafrat mat karna daya mai seh nahi pauga'... Bas apne boss ki baat maan raha hu... Mujhe nahi pata yeh sab kya ho raha hai, mujhe yeh bhi nahi pata ki kyu ho raha hai, mujhe bas itna pata hai ki Abhijeet kuch galat nahi kar sakta

           In two corners of the same room were lyingly two brothers... One happy to find other and other who couldn't face his most precious relation... One smiling with hands tied with real rope and one crying with hands tied with the rope of national duty!

To be continued...

              Done! I know that this chapter was very boring! Am so sorry but i couldn't help it... Please do leave your precious reviews and criticism is most welcome.
