Ch1.
A girl comes and knocks at the door of a simple yet beautiful 3BHK appartment.An old lady,aged 65,comes and opens the door.She carefully looks at the girl and smiles.The girl also returned her smile.
''Kya main Arjun Suryakant Rawte se mil sakti hu? Main ABC Research Company se aayi hu,(flashes her id card)... Mujhe Rawte sir ki interview leni hai? Kya main andar aasakti hu?''
''Interview ka toh pata nahi,par,haan,baat zarur karsakti ho... Andar aao,beta.'' Saying this,she closes the door and asks her to sit on the sofa.The girl looks around the whole house.It looked beautiful yet simple and elegant. She saw a couple of photographs hanging on the wall...She went forward to have a clearer view,only to be broken by the voice of a man,coming from his room.
''Roshni Rawte,meri pehli biwi... Sikander ne maar diya thha mere aakhon ke saamne... Aaj woh bohut khush hogi,kyunki,maine usske katil ko maut ke ghaat utar diya hai... By the way,main Arjun Suryakant Rawte... Nice to meet you... Please have a seat..''
''Sure,sir...'' The girl sits on her sofa...
''Sir,main Nidhi Sharma hu.. ABC Research company mein as an intern research analyst kaam karti... Yeh hai meri ID card(shows it to Arjun)... Main jis company mein kaam karti hu,as an intern,wahaan pe sab interns ko kisi topic pe research karne ko kahaa hai... Mera topic ka naam thhe aap khud hi,Sir... Main jaanti hu ki aapke mann mein kai saare aise questions uth rahe honge ki,ek,anjaan larki aapke life story baare mein janne keliye kyun itni besabr hai? Sir,main jis office mein kaam karti hu,ussi office ka ek orphanage hai,jahaan pe free education di jaati hai.. Wahaan pe hum sab baccho alag alag cheez ya insaano ke baare mein hum batate hai.. Personal baato se related koi baat nahi batate,sirf,unki achievements,goals,etc ke baare mein batate hai... Agar aap bura na maane,toh,kya main aapki interview le sakti hu,Sir?''
''Mujhe koi aitraaz nahi hai... Balki aap toh bohut nekh kaam kar rahe ho... Aajkal ke chhote baccho ko janna behat zaruri hota hai,kyunki yeh bacche hi toh hai,jo iss desh ki future hai... You can proceed..'' Arjun permitted...
''Thank you so much,Sir... Toh,pehla sawal... Arjun Suryakant Rawte se ACP Arjun Suryakant Rawte ka safar kaisa thha? Koi rukavaate aayi aapki raahon mein? Aapka saath kin logone diya aur kinhone nahi?''
Arjun let out a sigh and started, ''Arjun Suryakant Rawte se ACP Arjun Suryakant Rawte ka safar aasan nahi thha... Main mere parivaar ka bara beta thha... Mere Baba Mumbai ke jaane maane businessman se ek thhe... Woh chahte thhe ki main unki business join karu,jo mujhe bilkul bhi bhaya nahi... Mujhe bachpan se shoukh charha thha ki main ek imaandar,saccha aur nishtapurvak Police Fficer banunga... Chhoti si umaar mein mujhe toy guns se lagav thha... Jab bara hota gaya,tab bhi mere Baba mujhse kaha karte thhe ki,yeh police ki naukri koi shobha dene wali naukri nahi hai... Aajkal toh har koi paise deke ACP banjata hai.. Baba ne sharte rakkhi thhi,ki,mujhe apna parivaar ya IPS service ki beech kisi ek ko chunna hai... Maine bhi wahi kiya jo mere dil ne chaha... IPS service ko chuna aur ghar se nikal gaya mere sapne ko pura karne keliye... Mere sapne pura karne mein bohut si rukavate aayi,par,mere Dadaji ne mujhe support kiya..Maine socha ki meri naam,shohrat,izzat dekhke mere Baba mujhe maaf kardenge,par nahi... Toh,phir kya,maine apne liye raasta chun liya,jisne mujhe kafi samay tak khushiyaan di,chappad phhar ke... Par,phir ek aisa waqt aaya,jisne hum do dosto ke beech ek diwaar khari hogayi thhi aur humdono juda hogaye.. Usske liye main ''Rawte'' bangaya aur mere liye woh ''Rathore'' ban gaya...''
''You mean,ACP Rathore,ETF chief? Par,unhone toh ETF chhorke Delhi based Crime Branch meinn shift hogaye? Sunne mein yeh bhi aaya thha,ki,ETF ke baaki member' ke maut ke zimmedaar aap hi thhe? To what extent thiis is true?''
