Chapter 105

                                         Part - 105

Here's Raj for you...

Raj is the little boy who used to polish shoes for a earning, he has no father or mother and is under the care of his uncle who feels Raj is a burden on him as Raj is of no use, he can't earn money like the other kids as he is disabled...

Yes, Raj can't walk on his legs for they are defective by birth...

He has to crawl on a wheeled wooden log to move...

Still he loves to do whatever work he could do and he polished shoes for a living near Maan's university...

Many students were fond of him as he is very talkative and he has this rare talent of drawing and arts...

He used to make arts with chalk on the pavements when he was free...

Students asked him to do their drawings and gave him money for that...they also got him food and clothes as his greedy uncle used to drain him off his earnings and never gave him a penny...

Raj went missing for a few days and the students were worried about Raj including Maan...

Then one day Maan got the news from one of his juniors that Raj is begging at some bazaar...

Maan couldn't believe for Raj is a boy with so much self-respect he would never do it even for a royal living...

Maan went to meet Raj and learnt from him that he has been made to beg forcefully by his drunkard uncle as Raj didn't earn enough for his uncle's drinks by polishing shoes but he could earn a lot by begging using sympathy which Raj hated the most, he was ashamed of begging and he cried a lot seeing Maan, he only prayed to God that no one he used to polish shoes came to the bazaar and saw him begging ...

Maan got angry and waited there hiding to see his bloody uncle, when his uncle came to collect the money in the evening Maan punched him on the face and and took him to the police for harassing a child...he was put in jail and Maan took the responsibility of Raj...

Maan admitted him in a school for disabled where he asked Raj to learn something related to his artistic interests...

Raj was given the choice of learning editing or painting...Raj always fancied computers which he saw with the students in which he could play games and opted to learn editing which would easily get him a jod in some studio...

But he has to get his own lappy to develop his skills further and so Maan got him a brand new lappy...

Raj thanked Maan for the help and even promised to pay the bills when he started to earn...

Now Maan remembered Geet saying that Raj got some job and has started earning, she was telling something about his uncle and Maan's lappy...but Maan didn't listen anything as he was totally angry with her then...

Maan went to the university and asked the students about Raj, the handicapped boy who used to polish shoes nearby...

Everyone recognized him immediately and they also told Maan that he got back to his hoem where he studied and got a job, now he is helping them in their project work...

They give Raj's address to Maan...

Maan went there and Raj is so happy to meet Maan...

Maan goes and hugs him...he congratulates Raj for achieving his goal...

Raj then takes the lappy which he is very fond if and still uses it to do his work...

It's not which Maan brought him...

Raj: bhai, I'm sorry I lost the lappy you gave me

Maan: what? but how?

Raj: you my useless uncle, he came back from jail and found that you have finished colleg and left, he came to the home as my uncle and brought me out from there, he put me back to begging and sold the lappy

Maan: what? how dare he?

Raj: but someone helped me just like you did and resued me from that rascal

Maan showed Geet's picture to raj but he couldn't recognize Geet...

Raj: no I don't know this didi, is this your girl friend, she is so beautiful, marry her soon and don't forget to invite me for your marriage bhai

Maan is again confused...but Geet knew Raj and also about his job, haina?

How is it possible?

Maan asks who helped Raj...Raj said someone named Arjun helped him and he is very grateful to him too...he only gave him the lappy he is using now...

Maan asks his address and Raj gives his contact number...

Maan calls that Arjun and tells him that he wants to meet him and thank him personally for helping Arjun...

But Arjun says if Maan had to thank someone he should thank Geet and not him, he did all this only for Geet...he kept praising Geet and Maan becomes jealous...

Why is that everyone loves Geet so much?

Maan says that he had to meet him immediately and he gets his address and goes and meets him in the evening...

Maan: nice meeting you Arjun

Arjun: nice meeting you too

Maan: how did you know Raj? Where did you meet him first? At the university? Are you a student of xyz university?

Arjun: no no Maan, I just did this for my lover

Maan is again shocked...he couldn't control his anger...so this guy must have loved Geet too...

Maan: so it must be Geet again

Maan bursts out in anger...

Arjun laughs...: cool Mr

Maan: Maan, Maan Singh Khurana

Arjun: cool Mr.Khurana, I think you must be closely related to Geet

Maan: it's none of your business, just tell me how you know Geet?

Arjun is scared of Maan's angry look and he decides to escape immediately...

Arjun: I don't know Geet personally, she is just my lover's friend

Maan is relieved now...: who is that now?

Arjun: I think Mr.Khurana that's none of your business either

Maan then controls his anger and asks him politely...

Maan: Mr.Arjun, I need to find Geet, this is very urgent, please you have to take me to Geet's friend

Arjun: why do you worry about Geet? how do you know Geet?

Maan: Mr.Arjun, I myself have a lot of unanswered questions which only Geet's friend could answer, if you help me get my answers you'll definetly get your answers too

Arjun: but who are you?

Maan has to use his final weapon to get to Geet...

Maan: you must be knowing Khrish?

Arjun suddenly gets excited...

Arjun: do you know Khrish? I must meet him, I've been searching him for years

Maan: why would you search him?

Arjun: b'coz Annie asked me to find him

Maan: ohh then Annie must know the whole story, she must be

Maan looks at Arjun for his confirmation...

Arjun: yes, she is my love, we are going to get married soon

Yes, Arjun is Geet's friend Annie's boy friend...

He knows a little about Geet from Annie...

Maan then asks Arjun what happened with Raj and why did he help him...

Arjun tell Maan what happened to Raj...

Once Geet found Raj begging near to her hostel, she immediately recognized him and went to ask him why he came back to begging as he doesn't like it, but when Geet neared him Raj's uncle came there...

He was threatening Raj, he snatched the money from Raj and took him with him...

That racal looked really scary and mean, he looked like a villain and Geet was too scared to talk with Raj, she thought it's better to ask someone strong to handle him...

As Maan is not here Geet sought Annie's help who suggested Arjun, though Arjun is not a super hero like Khrish, one of his friends is a police officer and using his power they rescued Raj from his uncle and made sure he never returned to trouble Raj again...

Geet also helped Raj by getting him a new lappy, she gave it to him thru Arjun itself...she always helps people indirectly for she doesn't like to see then humiliated knowing who has helped them...

That's why Raj didn't know Geet...

If Geet really wanted to impress Maan she must have identified herself before Raj so that after hearing his story Maan would automatically think high about Geet...

But she does it b'coz she knows not everyone is as fortunate as herself and she shouldn't take the credit for her family heritage...

Maan is desperate to find why Geet did all this?

Maan: I should meet Annie now

Maan almost commands Arjun...

Arjun: wait, who are you to meet Annie?

Maan: I'm khrish

Arjun is surprised...he couldn't believe it...

Arjun looks at Maan as if he has found some treasure...: so you are Khrish

He is happy and also excited...: then you must meet Annie, Annie has been waiting to see you

Arjun immediately takes Maan to Annie...

Arjun: Annie Annie

Annie is at her college hostel...

Annie finds Arjun so excited...

Annie: Arjun, what's the matter? I told you I have my seminar tomorrow and asked you not to disturb me, now what do you want?

Arjun: I have got you a gift

Annie: gift?

Arjun: yes, wait a minute

Arjun then asks Maan to come in...

Annie gets angry...

Annie: who is this? why do you waste my time?

Arjun: don't you recognize him?

Annie looks carefully at Maan...she can't recognize him...

Annie: is this your cousin or what? he has no resemblance at all

Annie doesn't know about Maan then...only Geet knew about Maan then...

Maan is all the more confused...

If Geet told about Khrish to Annie then Annie should have recognized Maan as Khrish, but she doesn't seem to know him at all!!!!!

This is going nowhere, the more Maan tries to untie the knots the more complicated it becomes...

Now it's upto MSK to crack this case...can he do that
