Olaa peeps!

Here is the proper first chapter, do read, like and comment!

This story will probably have a sad ending, thought to warn you guys in advance!

Love,

Sakshi

Everyone, except for Sameer, was sitting in the conference room, they were talking about their last case, a person who killed rash drivers. Shree had found out some facts about how fast driving is dangerous, and other stuff the team was probably never going to need. Chhotu rolledhis eyes and Liza looked at him like he came from Tattooine. Arjun was busy SYSing Sakshi on something, anyone else would've turned red of embarrassment, but Sakshi didn't show any anger or look affected at all. She knew that he was worried over her, so that's why he was acting extra akdu today. After some minutes Sameer entered the room, there was an unreadable expressionon his face.

"Rawte, mujhe tumse baat karni hai, challo mere saath," he said and turned back and left the room. Arjun looked surprised, but stood up and followed him. When he entered Sameers office he saw Arohi sitting there, there were tears in her eyes. He was concerned and rushed to her side, he hugged her, looking at Sameer he said: " what's going on Rathore?"

"Arjun, ma!" Arohi said before Sameer could say something. "Unko massive heart attack hogaya!" Arjun started shaking his head, willing for the words that left his sisters mouth to not be true. He shut his eyes as tears started to fall.

"Dr. Sharma ne bola that she didn't suffer. Lekin I couldn't tell you over the phone, isiliye pehli flight leke idhar aagayi." Arjun just hugged her tightly, he was trying to keep the pain he felt from coming out. He couldn't break down in front of his sister. He had to keep strong.

"Rawte, you take all the time you need, and report on duty when you feel that you are able to. I am sorry for your loss."

Sameer entered the conference room and dejectedly sat on his chair. As everyone had their worried gazes on him, one person was only looking at the door. "Rawte iss case mein kaam nahi karega. He has taken off for a while." Sameer said. When he saw that Shree, Chhotu and Liza were ready to fire questions at him he said "Main tum logon ko nahi bata sakta, since it is a personal matter. Waise maine DIG se baat karke koshish kit hi ke yeh case kissi aur team ko miljaye, but alas that was not possible. But he did agree however to get Sakshi off the case. Since is case mein humein Public Liaison ki zarurat kam hai unhone grant kardi. Tum Arjun ke saath jaogi. I know he acts strong, but even he needs someone. And you know as well as I do that you are the only person who he won't turn away. He needs you to be there for him."

Sakshi looked at Sameer with fear in her eyes, giving a nod she almost ran out of the conference room. She was about to enter Sameer's office when Arohi walked out. "Hey Arohi, Arjun ne bataya nahi ke tum aarahi ho?"

"Hey Sakshi," Arohi said as she hugged Sakshi tightly. "Woh Arjun ko bhi nahi pata tha ke main aa rahi hoon... maa kal raat ko guzar gayi." Sakshi was shocked, she had seen mrs Rawte just a few months back when she had come to stay with Arjun for a while.

"Oh..." she gasped as she got tears in her eyes. After taking a second she had already composed herself. "I am so sorry Arohi. Do you need me to do anything?"

"Thanks Sakshi, lekin maa ne to pehle hi sab kuchh arrange kar liya tha. I guess she knew that she didn't have much time left, she had been sick for a while now. She just didn't want to be a boj on anyone." Arohi tried to give a sad smile. "Mujhe lagta hai ke use tumhari zarurat hai, he doesn't say it, lekin woh andar se toot raha hai. Aur main jaanti hoon use, woh mere yah kissi aur ke paas nahi aayega when he finally breaks down. Especially dad ke baad, he sees himself as the only man in the house. The only person who can break through the wall are you. He will be needing you more now than ever. Do take care of him, please."

"I will, don't worry. Tum Arjun ke ghar mein reh rahi ho?"

"Nahi, main isliye aayi thi ke usko khud bata sakun, mere paas to kuchh paise aur apne passport ko chhod ke kuchh aur hai bhi nahi. Main abhi flight pakar ke ghar jaane lagi hoon. Waise bhi sirf 1 hour ki flight hai. Arjun ne bola hai ki woh kuchh kaam karke kal subah aayega. Waise the cremation will be the day after tomorrow. And I would like for you to be there. Mom did love you a lot. She was always praising you, she praised you even more than she did Arjun, and he is her blue eyed boy."

"Aunty was a lovely lady. And she was always very kind to me whenever we spoke on the phone, or on the few occasions we actually got to meet. She reminded me so much of my own mom. Agar who nahi hote toh mere aur Arjun ki dosti bhi na hoti. Waise Sameer ne mujhe chhuti di hai, so main bhi kal Arjun ke saath hi aa jaungi."

Arohi gave her a tight hug, and they said their byes as she made her way to the airport.

~*~

Sakshi was standing infront of Sameers office, trying to get her emotions in check. As she opened the door and entered she saw Arjun just standing, looking blankly at the wall in front of him.

"Arjun," she said as she stood behind him. Upon hearing her voice he turned around, she could see the tears he was trying to stop from falling. She pulled him in her arms, trying to give him strength by her touch.

"Woh abh nahi hai Sakshi, woh kabhi waapis nahi aane waali." His voice broke halfway, the tears he had been holding for so long fell on her neck.

"What can I do to help?" Sakshi asked him.

"Kuchh nahi, maa ne pehle hi sabh kuchh karliya hai. Arohi ne kaha ke unhone even sabh kuchh pay bhi kardiya hai."

"Mera matlab who nahi tha Arjun, main tumhare liye kya karsakti hoon?." Sakshi asked as she took his hand in hers.

"Mere saath chalogi?"

"Haan, Sameer ne mujhe chhutti de di hai, bas main apna pichhle case ka analysis usko mail kardungi aaj. Waise agar tum kehte ho to main tumhare liye flight ka arrange kardeti hoon, If you want tum aaj raat mere ghar pe reh lena, guest room saaf hai. Waise nahi to main tumhare ghar..." she kept on talking, trying to talk about anything but the matter at hand. And even though Arjun felt that his world had been stolen from him he had to give a small smile as he looked at her. If she wasn't there right now he knew he would've turned his sadness into an anger so uncontrollable it would burn everything it came in contact with.

"Bas joh abh karrahi ho, aur kuchh nahi." He said.

She stopped blabbering and looked shocked at him. "Joh main abhi karrahi hoon? Lekin abh to maine kuchh kiya bhi nahi."

"Tum mujhe abhi jitna support kar rahi ho, tumhe nahi pata, if you weren't here I would've broken beyond repair. Just stay with me!" Sakshi just nodded. They sat there, on the floor of Sameer's office before she stood up, and helped him up.
