PART 8 A

Here Riya n arjun went back to appratment after having icecream. When arjun was about to leave riya said "arjunji aapse ek baat poochu?" Arjun said "haan poocho" Riya said "mujhe aisa lagta hai ki aap sikander ko bahut acche se jaante hai aur sirf itna hi nahin wo kab kya karega kya soochega ye bhi aapko pata hota hai kaise? Ab ye mat kahiyega ki main galat bol rahi hoon" arjun with apain in his eyes said "riya ye baat sach hai partum jaan ke kya karogi?" Riya said "Arjun ji main ab tak jab bhi sikader se mili hoon usne mujhse kabhi kuch nahin chupaya hai yaha tak ki usne mujhe jannat ke baare main bhi bataya aur mujhe bahut ajeeb lagta hai aisa lagta hai ki main kisi ke jazbaato ke saath khel rahi hoon " Arjun said "woe k mujrim hai riya aur tumhe usse hamdardi ho rahi hai" riya said "Yadi humdardi hoti to main yaha nahin hoti arjun ji main sirf aapse pooch rahi hoon ki jitna main jaanti hoon ye cheez usse zayada badi hai" Arjun sighed in defeat n said "haan sahi kaha tumne mujhe is liye sab pata hai ki usne jin laakho logo ki zindagi kharab ki hai unme se main ek hoon" riya is shocked hearing this n arjun continued "Sikander jannat ki maut ke baad bahut khatarnaak ho gaya mujhe andaza nahin tha ki wo aisa kadam uthalega usne meri patni ko meri aankho ke saanne maar dala aur main kuch nahin kar saka sikander ke peeche main bahut samamy pada raha uske kaafi consignments bhi pakadwaye usne kaafi dhamkiya di mujhe par main nahin ruka us din hamari shadi ki doosri saalgirah thiusne mujhe behosh kar ke roshni ko maar diya sameer aur aisha ne mujhe bachaya roshni ki to maut wahi ho chuki thi aur main buri tarah ghayal tha tab se maine sikander ko rokne ki thani taaki wo aur kisi ki zindagi barbaad na kar sake" n close his eyes in pain.

Riya was still in shock she said "I am sorry arjun ji main nahin jaanti thi ki aapke saath aisa hua hai main aapko hurt nahin karna chahti thi par dost ke naate aapse yahi kahoongi ki aapko apna dard baatna chahiye isse dard kam ho jata hai aapki zindigi main aapke dost hai aapka dard baatne ke liye sameer ji, aisha ji aur"" after a pause says "main bhi aapko jab bhi dost ki zarrorat ho aap mujhse baat kar sakte hai" Arjun smiles at this n looks her deep into her eyes which showed only care n love no pity at all. He tried taking leave but riya stopped him n said "aap aaj yahi ruk jaayiye kla subah chale jaayiyega "Arjun nodded n took some rest in the next room while in sleep he was mumbling roshnis name he became restless n suddenly woke up screaming roshnis name loudly. He then realized that he was in guest room of riyas apartment hearing arjuns scream she came running to his room n saw him restless and sweating badly. She put her palm on his shoulder n said "arjun ji relax aapne shayad koi bura sapna dekha hai" Seeing riya scared he gets relaxed and riya says "aap chai piyenge aapko thoda accha lagega" Arjun looks at her with surprise n riya says "kya baat hai aap aise kyu dekh rahe hai mujhe chai banana aati hai" Arjun smirks n says "accha jaise us din nasta banaya tha wais eek baat batau mujhe nahin pata tha tumhe meri gun se itna darr lagta hai" Riya is now irritated n says "nahin bilkul nahin aap thodi na mujhe kuch karenge waise bhi aapke liye to main aapka sabse bada maohra hoon" arjun said "accha to phir mujhe kata kyu tha jab main tumse tumhare ghar milne aaya tha?" riya was hesitating a bitn started fumbling with words "vo main -" arjun said smiling"tum aisi hi acchi lagti ho chekti hui ,hasti hui or daant katti hui" she blushed n went to make tea for arjun.

Riya was back with 2 cups of tea n placed it on the table n riya n arjun started chatting with drinking Tea n arjun was telling her about his police academy days with sameer n roshni n she too was enjoying it arjun started feeling more comfortable with riya n shared a wonderful bond with her. Next day morning Sikander called riya n said "meher mujhe tumse kuch baat karni hai tum mujhse mil sakti hoo" Riya said "Haan batayiye kahah milna chahte hai app" he said "theek hai mujhe tum aaj shyam 7 baje mere farm house main milo" Riya had taken a back with this sudden meeting n sensed some thing really big is going to come her way as it was always the other way that she came in path of sikander and attracted him n he use to attracted like moth to a flame it was the first time sikander has invited her to his place n that to for talks that too in such a small span of time she had never expected this. She was bit nervous n told everything to arjun n he said "riya ye acchi baat hai ki sikander ne tumhe khud bulaya hai main bhi hairaan hoon ki usne itni jaldi tumpe bharosa kar liya? Par ye hamare liye bahut accha hai tum ghabrao mat aur shyam to usse milne ki tayyiyari karo" riya nodded and went way but arjun was in deep thoughts same thing was troubling him too but he could not show it to anyone as any of his move may destroy the plan to nab sikander n he cannot even risk life riya as if he had a slightest of idea that riya is send by arjun then her life would be in a grave danger. Sameer sensed it n said arjun tum isliye pareshan ho ki aaj riya ko sikander ne khud bulaya hai ye to accha hai hamare plan ke liye" Arjun said "haan Rathore ye accha hai par main kya karron mujhe bahut ajeeb lag raha hai sikander ka itni jaldi bharosa karna riya pe mujhe bahut ajeeb lag raha hai" Sameer put his palm n squeezed his shoulder in assurance n said "bharosa rakho arjun kuch galat nahin hoga hum nahin hone deenge "n arjun smiled at this.
