The Wait
part-11
"Riya.?"
Shree, Chhotu almost screamed running up to her, followed by Sakshi, and Ayesha ;
whereas Rathore and Arjun stood rooted at their place.
"Shree mujhe pinch kar na. Mujhe yakin ni ho raha hai. "
Chhotu said in a daze, and the next moment he winced as Shree pinched him a little hardly.
"itni zor se karne ke liye ni kaha tha. "
"arey dheere karta toh tujhe feel hi ni hota,kyunki teri skin moti hai.
Shree chuckled,earning a glare from chhotu ,when Riya interupted them.
"guys ,chhodo ye sab.batao kaisa laga surprise.?
Riya asked excitedly.
"zabardast. "came chhotu's quick reply.
"achha toh issliyee Rathore sir ne hame jaldi bulaya tha.?
Shree looked inbetween her and Rathore,who was silent till now.
"vo maine hi Rathore sir se kaha tha sabko na batane ke liye. Riya smiled.
"subah ki neend bigdi ,per abhi uski wajah jaanne ke baad bahut khushi ho rahi hai.chhotu too smiled.
"welcome back.
Sakshi grinned extending her hand for handshake.
Riya gladly accepted it,and shook her hand with sakshi.
"thank you.
"toh aakhir me doctor ne tumhe chhuti de hi di hospital se.welcome back.
Ayesha too took her hand for a handshake,en Riya was overwhelmed by everyone's warm gesture.
"Riya welcome back. "
Rathore chirped in his bossy tone, meanwhile Arjun kept mum.
Nodding at Rathore, Riya took a glance at the new ETF office and smiled.
"achhi hai na new office.? "
Shree grinned.
"haan. Achhi aur bada bhi. "
Came her quick reply.
"ab ye welcome ka celebration hogaya ho toh kaam karlein. ?"
Arjun's curt voice made all sigh, hence they took their respective seats around the big glass table.
"umm sorry sir maine aapki chai order ni ki hai.Mai abhi ..."
"rehne do Riya, Arjun ki cutting chai ready hi hai. "
Sakshi smiled, interrupting Riya's words.
Riya's forehead creased with confused lines, watching Sakshi taking out something out of her bag and it turned out to be a thermos.
"vo Kya hai na Arjun ko Isse peene ki adat hogayi hai, toh chai bahar se ni aati. "
Riya's smile faded a little, yet she maintained her composure taking her seat next to Chhotu.
Shree, Chhotu passed sympathy look to their friend meanwhile others focused on their respective work.
-----------------
The SUV stopped near the river bank ,where the crowd was gathered around,but the police barricade were there to prevent the crowd to go antwhere near the crime spot.
The two officers climbed off the SUV ,
instantly receiving salutes from the local police and they noddded walkng past the crowd,where their teammates were already preset ;
analysing the spot,collecting proofs,taking snaps of the dead bodies,collecting statements of eye witness.
Taking the goggle off Rathore bent down up to the level of one dead body and examined it,
meanwhile Arjun roamed his eyes around the river bank ,then to Liza who seemed busy in wrapping up every leftover around the bodies for her research.
"Sir,ye jo 2 bodies mili hai usme se ladke ka naam hai Dinesh Dixit.ek private institute me MBA 2nd year ka student tha,ye hame uski identity card se pata chala.
lekin ladki ko identify karne ke liye aesa kuch mila ni abhi tak.yahan ke kuch local citizen subah yahan machhli pakadne aaye the,aur unhone dekha ki ye dono ek sath upar ke bridge se paani me kud gaye.
Logon ne bachane ki koshish ki per paani gehra tha aur tab tak bahut dair ho chuki thi.Riya breathed her collected infos in a go.
"dekhne se suicide case lagta hai.kuch logon ka kehna hai ki ye dono aapas me kuch baat kar rahe the,aur phir bina kisiki sune kud gaye.
Sakshi added.
"chhotu, jitno ne bhi ye sab hote hue dekha unn sabko yahan bulao.
Arjun ordered,to which chhotu nodded his head.
"yes sir.
Rathore and Arjun stood folding their arms across their respective chest, as the local people came standing near them.
"tum log kya yahan roz aate ho machhli pakadne.?
Arjun started questioning.
ji sahab. Pass me hamara jhopdi hai,aur pichhle 15 saal se hum yahan machhli pakadte hain.
One man replied politely.
"aaj kitne baje aaye the yahan.?
Rathore asked this time.
subah ke 6 baje sahab.hum yahan aaye toh dekha ki vo ladka ladki upar bridge me khade the,vo ladki ro rahi thi aur vo ladka usse kuch keh raha tha.phir dono achanak paani me kud gaye.nadi me paani bahut hai issliye hum thodi dair se kude per tab tak vo dono marr chuke the.
Another man explained briefly.
"vo ladki ro rahi thi.?
Sakshi pointed out.
"ji haan.unn dono ne hath pakda tha,aur vo ladki bahut roye jaa rahi thi.
"tum logon ke kisi aur ko yahan aas pass.?
Arjun piped in.
"nahi vo dono akele hi the.koi aur nit ha yahan.
thik hai tum log jaa sakte ,per agar dubara jarurat padi toh hum bulayenge.
Rathore chirped straight ,hence the local people left the place after agreeing to them.
"Rawte,shree, Riya tum log Dinesh ke college jaake pata karo.tab tak Liza forenscic reports ready karo inn dono ki.
Rathore ordered.
"yes sir.
All chorused except Arjun,then all scattered up to complete their allotted work.
In the college...
Arjun walked ahead followed by Riya and Shree ,who were well aware of various eyeballs of the students on them.
"shree,ye sab hame aese kyun ghur rahe hain? Hum college students ni lag rahe hain kya.?'
Riya murmured in a low voicec.
"hum toh students ki tarah lag rahe hain,per jo hamare samne chal rahe hain na vo yahan ke profgessor ki tarah bhi ni dikh rahe hain.
Shree replied in a hushed tone ,eyeing Arjun's back.
"shut up.
Riya frowned.
"arey sach me .Arjun sir aese chal rahe hain jaise kisika encounter karne jaa rahe hain.
Shrree chuckled,hence Riya kept mum as they reached nearer to the principal's cabin.
"hame college ke principal se milna hai.
Arjun said to the peon standing outside of the principal's cabin.
"appointment hai.?
peon eyed him curiously.
Arjun simply showed him his ID card,causing the peon's eyes to widen in surprise.
aap thodi dair rukiye.mai sir ko inform karke aata hun.
Riya,shree ,Arjun waited in the meantime the peon went inside the cabin and came back after a while.
"aap sab andar jaa sakte hain.
Nodding,Arjun pushed the door open walking inside followed by shree and Riya.
"good morning officers.aaj ETF hamare college me? Koi problem hai.?
The principal asked nervously,gesturing them to have a seat.
"nahi hum kuch information ke liiye aaye the.kya aap isse jaante hain? Aapke college ka 2nd year ka student hai.
Shree showed him a photo in his mobile.
"maaf kijiye college ke sare students ka chehra yaad rakhna thoda muskil hai.mai ek 2nd year ke professor ko bula deta hun,vo sayad apki koi help kar sake.
The principal assured pressing the buzzer ,en within minutes the peon reappeared through the door.
"professor verma ko bulana.
"ji sir.
The peon left and after few minutes a man of mid 49 appeared ,clad in formals and a smile on his face.
"good morning sir.aapne bulaya.?'
"yes prof. Verma .actually ye ETF officers hain,aur ye ek student ke bare me information lene aaye hain.
The principal replied.
"oh hello officers.bataiye kiske bare me jaana hai apko.?
Prof verma looked at them expectantly.
"ye.
Shree showed the same photo to him ,and prof verma looked visibly shocked.
"ye toh Dinesh hai.mere batch ka student.per aap log kyun puch rahe hain,aur isse hua kya hai.?'
"batate hain professor .pehle shree,inhe dusri photo dikhao.
Arjun ordered,thus shree flipped another pic on his phone.
"aur ye.?
"ye ladki ko bhi maine class me dekha hua lagta hai,per ,ujhe naam yaad ni hai.
Actually Dinesh batch ka topper hai issliye vo mujhe ache se yaad ahi,but i'm sure ye ladki bhi mere batch ki hai .
Professor verma finished,hence Arjun stood up from his chair.
"2nd year batch ki classroom kahan hai.?
"per officer atleast bataiye ki unn dono ko hua kya hai.?
The principal too stood up.
"dono ki dead bodies mili hai hame subah .
Riya gave him a short reply,then they were gone from the cabin looking for 2nd year students classroom.
"liza reports aagaye.?
Rathore asking making his way inside the lab,followed by Chhotu and Ayesha.
"ji sir.dono ke reports aagaye,aur iske mutabik dono ki maut paani me girne ki wajah se ni hui hai.
Liza chirped in a professional tone,making the trio stare at her confusingly.
"Liza dono dubke mare hain toh maut ki wajah wohi hua na.?
Chhotu raised his brow.
"nahi chhotu agar vo dono dubte nit oh waise bhi marr jaate.
"kaise.?
Ayesha piped in curiously.
"zeher ki wajah se.dono ki body me mujhe poision ke traces mile,sirf utna hi nahi poision ke sath sath unke bodies me drugs ke bhi traces mile hain.ab vo dono jaan bujh ke drugs lete the ya anjane me ye kehna muskil hai.
Liza breathed in a go.
toh vo paani me kudne ke baad zeher ka asar shuru hua.?
Rathore questioned.
"yes sir.marne ke kuch adha ghanta pehle unhone zeher khaya tha,aur itna waqt kaafi hai zeher ka reaction aane me.
"ek baat samajh ni aayi.agar unn dono ne zeher khaya hi that oh paani me kyun kude? Unki toh waise bhi maut hone wali thi.
Chhotu murmured ,while Ayesha and Rathore too started thinking the same.
Two days passed away,with ETF having minimum clue of two college student's death which led to pressure from the comissionerate office.
On another regular morning all chhotu,shree, Riya,Ayesha,Sakshi were gathered around conference hall table chit chatting whilist doing their respective works provided by their two chiefs :who hadn't currently arrived to the office.
"kya yaar socha tha case khatam hone ke baad sab milke party karenge,per ye case sulajhne ki jagah ulajhta jaa raha hai.
Shree shook his head.
"pehle lag raha tha suicide case hai,aur ab toh suicide aur murder ke bich me hum log atak gaye hain.
Sakshi added with a sigh.
"haan.upar se commissioner sir ne pressure dalna shuru kar diya hai case jaldi solve karne ke liye.
Ayesha spoke in a low voice.
"aahan. Aur hamari Ayesha issliye pareshan hai kyunki Rathore sir pareshan hai.
Chhotu teased making all laugh,and Ayesha flushed.
shut up chhotu.
"itna dhyan agar tum log case me lagate toh koi na koi clue abhi tak mill hi jaata .nahi.?
All suddenly silenced as soon as the stern voice interrupted them,and they needn't to turn to ensure it was Arjun Suryakant Rawte who has witnessed them having fun time.
Arjun glared each head in the hall,before finally settling his eyes on Riya.
"Riya ,maine tumhe unn dono ki family details collect karne ke liye kaha tha.vo file kahan hai.?
Riya gulped a little looking up to meet his cold eyes.
"sir almost ready hai,mai aapko cabin me..
"ALMOST.?
Arjun let out a bitter laugh.
tumse aur umeed bhi kya kar sakta hun riya?
Kaam khatam karne ki jagah tum yahan sab ke sath jokes pe hass rahi ho?
Tumhari Ye irresponsibility jhelne ki hame pehle se adat hai.afsos,wapas aake bhi tum kuch ni seekhi.
He stormed towards his cabin,leaving Riya to deal with his harsh words alone.
She bit her lip ,blinked her eyes not to let her tears drop infront of her friends.
"vo kal se hi Arjun sir kuch ukhde ukhde se lag rahe hain.maybe case ki tension vo bol diya sab kuch.
Ayesha murmured to assure her.
"dil pe mat le.tujhe pata hai vo kaise hain.
Chhotu side hugged her and she forced a smile on her face.
"it's ok guys.mai file jaldi khatam karke unhe de deti hun.
There arjun sat on the chair of his cabin with closed eyes.
Since yesterday this headache was constantly diverting his focus from work,and he could do nothing about it ,irritating him more and more.
He knew this was the sole reason he was lashing out on anyone and everyone but he could never take his own words back.
Groaning he leaned his back on the chair massaging his temple slowly with his fingers,when a knock interrupted the silence of the room.
"come in.
His voice came out as hoarse and sharp.
Footstep sounds entering the room well reached up to his ears ,then he heard the steps disappearing closing the door at back.
He didn't bother to see who came and left without exchanging any word with him,as few seccs later there was another knock.
"come in.
"sir,file ready hai.
Riya said standing near the table ,clutching a file in both of her hands.
table pe rakhdo and leave.
"ok sir.
Once she was gone,he took few minutes to gather himself back and straightened his body on the chair ,stretching his hand to grab the file riya had prepared.
What surprised him was a balm placed over the file,with a tablet beside it and he looked up that instant towards the door,from where riya had just took an exit.
Tbc.
so how was it?
you think Arjun's roughness can stop Riya from caring for him? ;}
