Beautiful update, waiting for more.

CHAPTER 14 - Part 2

Finally after ten days of complete rest Shree returned. Riya was overjoyed that Shree was back, and so was all the fun!

They were standing near the aqua-guard.

"Ek party tho banta hain Shree," Riya said winking at Chotu.

"Haan bilkul. Tu hi bol kahan jaayenge?" Chotu said putting his hand on Shree's shoulder, telling him he had no choice.

"Arey yaar, party tho aap logon ko dena chahiye. A 'welcome back' party. Kyun Riya, tum de rahi ho na? Main apne saath Chotu ko bhi le aaunga. Kyun Chotu chalega?" Shree now said to Chotu and winked at him.

"Kya dhaasu idea hain yaar!" Chotu said as he and Shree hi-fived.

"Aah! Dhokebaaz! Mujhe book kardiya tumne Chotu? That's so unfair," she said, frowning at Chotu.

"So, it's decided. Riya hamein ek party de rahi hain," Shree said and they turned around. Riya narrowed her eyes, filled some water in a cup and said, "Shree!"

Shree turned around wondering what happened. Riya threw the water right at his face! "Yeh rahi tumhari 'welcome back' party," she said, giving a naughty smile.

Shree stood there his eyes closed and face drenched. Chotu looked at him, his mouth open.

"Tumhe kya lagta hain? Tum dono iss baar bhi mujhe hi bali ka bakra banaayenge? Kabhi nahin!" she said folding her hands.

"Acha? Dekhthe hain kaise nahin banogi," saying Shree took out his water bottle and threatened to empty it on her. "Shree don't," she started moving back. They were having fun after so long that they forgot they were in their office with Rathore and Arjun standing just around the corner.

"Ho kya raha hain yahaan? Ye office hain ya fish market?" Rathore yelled in anger. The trio froze right where they were. Arjun just stood behind Rathore and was angry too.

Rathore then turned towards Shree, "Aur Shree tum tho aaj hi vaapas aaye ho. Ye kya haal bana rakhi hain?" Shree bent his head down and said nothing.

"Riya, tum log chote bache nahin ho, jo ye sab kare. You are ETF officers. Show some responsibility!" Rathore said and walked away.

The three of them looked at each other and then looked at Arjun. He looked angry as well. Shree and Chotu were praying to all Gods and Goddesses to save them from his wrath. Riya had already prepared herself mentally for yet another round of scolding.

"Conference room mein assemble ho jao. Do minute hain tum logon ke paas," Arjun said and walked away.

Shree, Chotu and Riya sighed in relief. "Lagta hain aaj hamare Khadoos sir ka mood bahut acha hain," Shree said. Riya hit him on the head and said, "Shree!"

"Aww.. come on Riya I was just kidding," he said as they walked towards the conference room.

Shree sat down in his place and opened his laptop and started streaming live news in one window and some old cricket matches in another window. He then opened the live news in and was startled by what he saw.

"The grand daughter of ex-minister Bhagwat Chauhan, was abducted from her school at 3:30PM this afternoon. The victim, a seven year old girl, was kidnapped while coming out of her school, after the final bell. We have our reporter Aradhna Deol reporting live from ex-minister Chauhan's house.."

"Sir! Ek breaking news!" Shree said turning the laptop towards Rathore. He looked at the screen that left him speechless. His face became pale.

"Kya hua hain, Shree?" Arjun asked observing Rathore's reactions; he did hear the name Bhagwat Chauhan just now.

"Ex-minister Bhagwat Chauhan ki grand daughter kidnap huyi hain sir. Saat saal ki bachi hain!" Shree answered and Arjun was shocked.

He turned towards Rathore. Rathore now took his phone out and called somebody,"Hello.."

"Yes sir.." he concluded the call.

"Saumya ki case hum deal kar rahe hain. Let's go," he said and was about to walk out of the room when Chotu asked, "Ye Saumya kaun hain sir?"

"Woh bachi jo kidnap huyi hain," Rathore said and walked out of the room.

In the SUV:

"Shree tumhe uss bachi ki school records milgayi hain?" Riya asked Shree.

"Yup! Just got them," he said and opened the file, "Here," he handed the laptop over to Riya.

She started reading out the deatails, "Woh bachi ka naam Saumya Chauhan hain. Ma ka naam Avantika Chauhan." Riya paused and then said, "Sir, yahaan pita ke naam ki jagah guardian ka naam hain, Bhagwat Chauhan."

Rathore clenched his jaw and the SUV picked up speed.

Riya continued, "Woh KVN International mein second standard ki student hain. Academic records ke hisaab se, she is sharp girl."

The SUV came to a sudden halt and they reached Chauhan's house.

Bhagwat Chauhan's house:

The house was flooded with reporters.

Rathore was quieter than usual. He didn't say a word the entire time, not even a word. The team went in avoiding the horde of reporters.

"Avantika, thoda pani pilo bitiya," Chauhan said to his daughter.

Avantika now glared at him, her eyes red due to crying.

She got up from her place took the water glass and smashed it on the floor.

"Nahin chahiye mujhe paani!" she shouted at the top of her voice, "Nahin chahiye! Mujhe meri beti vaapas chahiye! Agar usse kuch bhi hua, tho main vaada karti hoon ki main aapko jaan se maar daloongi. Ye bhool jaaongi ki aap mere Bhabasa hain!"

Rathore and the team were now witnessing this scene. Both Chauhan and his daughter were unaware of their presence.

"Ye tum kya keh rahi ho bitiya?"

"Haan sahi keh rahi hoon. Aapne aur aapke iss biradari ki dushmani ne pehle mujhse mere pati ko cheen liya, aur aaj meri bachi ki jaan khatre mein hain! Ab bhi aap Sameer ko nahin bulana chahte the? Kya kahungi main Sameer se? Ghin aati hain ye soch ke ki aapko hum se zyada aapki dushmani ki padi hain! Mujhe meri bachi sahi salamat chahiye!!!" saying so, Avantika broke down.

"Kuch nahin hoga Saumya ko!" ACP Sameer Rathore declared.

"Tum? Tum yahaan kya kar rahe ho? Security!" Chauhan yelled and pulled his gun out pointing it at Rathore. The entire team pulled their guns out. Rathore raised his hand and signaled his team not to make any move. Rathore walked towards Bhagwat Chauhan, and held the barrel of his gun, "Maar daaloge mujhe? Lekin kaise?" Rathore said and yanked the gun out of Chauhan's hands.

"Woh meri pothi hain! Door raho usse!" Chauhan warned Rathore.

Avantika looked up at Chauhan with disgust in her eyes.

"Agar woh tumhari pothi hain, tho meri beti bhi hain!!!" Rathore said at the top of his voice, that made Chauhan back down. He stumbled in the process and fell into the chair behind him.

The entire ETF team was shocked. They had no idea that Rathore had a family. Arjun had a vague idea about this, but he was surprised as well.

Rathore walked towards Avantika and helped her get up, and made her sit on the couch. She was still crying.

Rathore then walked towards Chauhan. Rathore slammed his fist against the table behind which the minister was sitting. "Sameer, ruko!" Avantika suddenly said, worried for Rathore.

"I'm not like you, Chauhan saab! Jo apni niji dushmani nikaalne ke liye apni beti ki shaadi shuda zindagi barbaad kar sakta hain. Aur aaj jab aapki pothi ki jaan khatre mein hain, tab bhi aapko hamari dusmani hi yaad aati hain? Mein Saumya ko bachaoonga, aapko pasand ho ya na ho! Understand?" Rathore said, and was furious.

Rathore then turned towards his team, "Shree, tum yahaan ke phone lines tap karo. Abhi tak koi ransom call nahin aayi hain. Riya aur Rawte tum mere saath chalo. Chotu tum Shree ki madad karo aur yahaan pe nazar rakho," he said looking at Chauhan, who was now glaring at Rathore.

In the dining room of the house:

Avantika sat down at the table, with Rathore sitting opposite to her Arjun standing behind Rathore, his hands folded. Riya offered Avantika a glass of water while Avantika refused it. Rathore took the glass from Riya offered it to Avantika again. Avantika now looked at him. He nodded at her and she took it.

"Saumya ko pick karne kaun jaata tha?" Arjun asked her.

"Main jaati hoon. Kitna bhi kaam ho main khud jaake usse pick karti hoon, ghar pe drop karti hoon aur vaapas office chali jaati hoon," Avantika answered.

"Aap akeli jaati hain?"

"Nahin. Driver hain. Lekin aaj achanak raste mein gaadi kharaab ho gayi. Aur jab tak main vahaan pahuchi tab tak.." she broke into tears again.

Rathore got up from his place and walked towards the window. His daughter was missing. It was like his breath has been taken away from him. He wanted to console Avantika but the void that developed in their relationship in the past seven years prevented him from doing so.

Riya put her hand on Avantika's shoulder and consoled her, "Aap please apne aap ko samhaliye. Saumya ko kuch nahin hoga."

Arjun stood there thinking as Avantika's words reverberated in his mind.
