Chapter-50
Oneside Arjun was beyond worried as no one were lifting his call, on other side Shikender who enjoyed the video of watching shree tortured became mad as no goon of his was alive. He even sent someone to hospital to know about shree but the informer informed him about tight security, kicked the things in angry, "Ho kya raha hai? Kounsi takhat hai uske peeche ki humhare admion ko namonishan nahi chode! Aur koi uss ward mei guss bhi nahi paarahe! Akhir hai kaun yeh?"
"Itna mysterious itna security meine kabhi nahi dekha! Aajtak har kisika janm khundali nikhala par iska kuch nahi pata chalraha! Kaise??" He growled in frustation.
Onother hand, Here at the hospital, Shree condition became worse which worried the family. "Kabir! Humne drug flush out kiya lekin his condition is not getting better! Uske blood levels bahut low hai!" Vivek Informed injecting a medicine into the saline, "mei reports leke atha huh!"
Kabir coming out looked at his family, "beta Shree kaisa hai?" Suryakant immediately questioned him.
Looking down, he nodded in no, "his condition is getting worse badepapa! Bahut khoon behchuka uska! Arjun emergency keliye pehle hih khoon donate kiya usse hum shree ko stable rakrahe lekin woh kafi nahi hoga shayad! Agar reports teekh nahi aye toh Arjun ki jarurat padega please aap usko bhulayiye!"
Suryakant nodded, "Hum samajthe, par Arjun ko kis muh se hum yeh sab bataye! Humsab ne uske chote ko safe nahi rakhpaye, kya jawab denghe hum!" He sighed as he failed protecting his child.
"Issliye mujhse sach chupana chahte aapsab!" A voice came from behind which startled them. Turning around they stared at Arjun who had very angry expression.
"Arjun!" Sam whispered going towards him, "Tum yaha!"
Arjun pushed him away shocking everyone, hissed "Kyu nahi ana chahiye! Mere bhai yaha hospital mei hai aur koi mujhe batana theek nahi samja!"
"Aapsab mujhse mere hih bhai ke baare mei chupaya! Himmat bhi kaise huwa, agar mei wapas nahi atha toh mujhe pata chalta bhi nahi!" Arjun yelled on them angrily.
"Arjun aisa nahi hai beta! Hum apko batane wale tey!" Suryakant tried to comfort him.
"Kab dad? Kab? jab mera bhai mujhse du..!" Arjun stopped his words his voice filled with emotion.
"Arjun!"
"Baat mat kijiye mujhse!" He reverted back angrily, They were interuppted as sister came out, hurriedly "Dr Kabir! Patient ki heart beat bahut badhgaye!" Hearing it Arjun strode inside.
Outside the family looked at her, "Sakshi aapko kaise pata hum sab hospital mei hai!" Arpita questioned her.
"Maa! Woh Arjun hai, jab baat shree pe atha hai darti asman ek karega woh, aise mei jab unhe yeh abaas hua ki shree theek nahi, toh uske baare mei patalagana badi baat nahi!" She replied remembering how devasted he was as no one thought to inform him about his brother, "Aur aaplog yeh baat chupake theek nahi kiya!"
Hearing her they felt guilt, Inside watching his brother surrounded by various equipment he staggered in his steps. Kabir who was beside tried to support but Arjun showed his hand. Getting a grip on himself, he covered the distance watching his brother thrashing on bed caught his hands gently, "Chote! Ankhe kholo bacha! Dekho mei agaya na sab theek hoga!!"
Taking place beside Arjun caressed his face, leaning he placed a kiss on his forehead, which made him calm, reduced the heart beat albeit slightly.
Vivek coming inside with Reports, forwarded them to kabir, who opened the file! Looking up at Shree then Arjun he steeled himself, not affording a breakdown.
"Kabir! blood mei drug ke saath ek aisa slow poison hai jisse uski body organs shutdown horaha aur gradually woh coma mei chalajayega!" Vivek confirmed, but got startled as Arjun held his collar, "Kya bolrahe hoh? Mera bhai ko kuch nahi hoga!" He hissed dangerously
"Arjun!!" Kabir tried to calm him, but Arjun pushed him, "Dur raho mujhse! Aur tum, himmat bhi kaise hua mera bhai ke baare mei aise bolne keliye! Khaan kholke sunho jabtak uska yeh bhai zinda hai usse kuch nahi hoga, samje!"
Hearing Arjun's raised voice the family came inside got shocked watching him. Suryakant and Rajveer going towards tried to free him, "Arjun chodo usse!"
Pulling him away Suryakant slapped him to bring him out of shock, "Arjun yeh kya pagalpan hai!"
Pushing his dad's hand away, "abhitak mere pagalpan dekha bhi kaha aapne! Agar mera bhai ko kuch bhi hua toh koi nahi bachega mere haath se! Aur tum shukar manao abhitak mera haath nahi utha warna tumhare muh todhdeta woh sab bakawas bolne keliye!" He warned him.
Kabir taking control, insisted everyone to move out. "ARJUN tum bhi!"
"No!" Arjun growled.
"Chote ke bare mei jana chahte toh bahar chalo warna mei tumhe uske aaspaas bhi ane nahi dungha!" Kabir warned.
"Try me!" Arjun challenged.
"Yeh tumhara ETF office nahi Arjun! Mera hospital hai aur yaha sab mere hisaab se hoga! Abh tum bahar chaloge yaa mei staff ko bhuloa!" Kabir didnot back down glaring at him.
"Arjun please chaliye!" Sakshi coaxed him taking his hand as she don't want fight between them, and she is only one he allowed in his space.
Coming out, "Kabir batayiye aise kya hua ki Arjun itna gussa hogaya!" His dad questioned
"Shree ko ek slow poison diya gaya hai! Jisse agle bhara ganta mei uski sare organs shutdown hoga aur shree coma mei yaa worse...!" His words were stopped when Arjun shouted on top of his voice, "BAS!"
"Ek aur lafz nahi Dr Kabir Singhania! Bhuljaunga tum mere jiju hoh!" He yelled.
The family was equally shocked with what he revealed, "Nahi aisa bilkul nahi hosaktha! Jiju aap humhare shree ko theek kijiye!" She pleaded him.
No one could form a word, Kabir started, "aur unfortunately India mei woh antidote available nahi hai!"
"Matlab?"
"Yeh antidote London se import karwana hoga! Lekin time lagega par Shree ke paas utna time nahi, usse poison dekhe char gante hone ko hai! Humhare paas keval aath gante hai!" Vivek informed them.
Arjun immediately called someone, "kuch bhi karo, lekin jitna jaldi hosakhe utne jaldi tum yaha medicine lekhe pauncho! Mei airport mei private plane arrange karwadeta huh!" "Mujhe msg karo medicine ka naam!" He looked at Kabir who nodded.
The team looked Suprised when two new persons entered, Chotu tried to stop them, "Yeh private ward hai aaplog nahi aasakthe!"
One person looking up at him, "Dont you think yeh hum nahi jante! Abh rasta chodo mera!"
"Dekhiye! Yaha ana sabko mana hai! Agar aaplog nahi jaate toh humhe aapko arrest karne padega!" Riya interferred.
The perosn raised his eyebrow, "Madam! We don't know who you are humhe jane mei interest bhi nahi! Now let us in!" while the other person who was in the call ended it, "Nirvan shaanth hojao!"
Looking at them, "hum shree ke dost hai! Abh toh ander jaa sakthe na hum!"
"Virat inhe safai dene ki kya jarurat hai!" Nirvan huffed at him but chotu still suspisious, "Dost lekin Shree kabhi tumlogon ke baare mei nahi bataya!"
At the same time, Ali who came, "Kyunki tumsab usse baare mei puri tarah nahi jante!" going towards them he hugged.
"Kaisa hai woh?" They asked softly....
"Chalo!" And took them towards the family. Sam who noticed them, "Tumdono US se wpaas kab aye!"
"Aaj bhai! Shree ko suprise dene wale tey hum, par yeh sab hogaya! Kaisa hai woh abh?"
Shaking his head, "kuch pata nahi chalraha!" Nodding they looked inside through window, "Arjun bhai wapas agaye!"
The family looked at them, "tumdono ko kaise pata Arjun yaha nahi tha?"
"Kyunki jaise humhe Ali ne inform kiya, Manik, bhai ko call kiya, unhe puchne keliye ki Shree kaisa hai!" Nirvan stopped looking at them, noticing their faces, "aapsab bhai se yeh baat chupaye tey na?"
Sam nodded in guilt, "iskamatlab woh Manik tha jiske karan Arjun ko sab pata chala! Woh kaha hai abh?"
"Woh toh ek hafte baad ane wala hai lekin abhi mera baat hua, woh shree keliye koi medicine lekhe flight board karchuka hai!" Virat informed while they nodded understanding Arjun called Manik.
Both then looked at sakshi who was sitting ideal sat either side, "kaise hoh?"
Nodding her head, "Tumlog mujhe bataya nahi wpaas ane ki baat?"
"Agar batate toh woh suprise kaise hota?" They teased her.
"Sakshi! Hosla rakho shree ko kuch nahi hoga! He will be fine!" They assured her knowing about her bond with him. The team looked at them both in confusion but let it be.
The time was going slowly but there was no change in Shree's condition, instead it got worse.
Here with help of her friends sakshi coaxed the family and sent them to rest along with the team as only two people are allowed to stay. As they went Sam Kabir looked at her, "Choti! Tum theek hoh?"
Taking place before them, "kya theekh bhai, mujhe Arjun ki bahut chinta horahi! unke halath nahi dekhe aap jab unhe yeh abaas hua ki shree ke saath kuch galat hua! Hum kitne calls kiye aapsab Ko, koi answer nahi diya aur jab Manik ka call aya, tab Arjun...!" remembering it tears rolled down her cheeks.
Watching her both got panicked sat beside, "kya hua?" Kabir stroked her head.
"Jiju! Arjun ki snaas rukhgaya tha!" She cried hugging him tightly still in fear of loosing him which shocked them beyond
"Sakshi kya bolrahi hoh?" Sam whispered again not able to digest it.
"Sach! Unhe stroke aya! Manik tab phone mei tha toh wahi madat kiya unke snaanse wapas lane mei!" She narrated how she helped him to take breaths by guiding her to make a cut on his chest to stop the air blockage.
Caresseing her back, "Shh! Bas Rona bandh karo!" Both consoled her.
"Choti, mei usse check kartha huh! Tum chinta mat karo!" Kabir assured her.
Entering inside they saw him doing something in his phone,while his one hand was on his brother, glancing at eachother they took a deep breaths, "Arjun!"
He ignored them both, not even looking up, Observing it Sam got mad, walking towards he snatched the phone throwing it away, "we need to talk!" He stared at him with glare.
"Dur raho mujhse! There is nothing to talk!" He gave a calm reply in cold voice.
"Baat toh karna padega! Lekin usse pehle!" Taking the stethoscope he stood before him, taking his wrist, which brought a frown on his face pulled away his hand, "Don't!" He hissed angrily.
But Sam who was beside, "Yaa toh tum chuchap Kabir ko check karne dho yaa mei badepapa ko call kartha huh!"
Their conversation halted as shree shook violently startling them, Arjun caught his hands, while Sam held his legs stopping him from hurting himself, While Kabir gave him medicine to stop the fit. Arjun turned away feeling helpless, wiped his tears "Kya hua?"
"Poison asar dhikaraha! Bhukar aur seizures pehla stage hai, humhe jaldi antidote dena hain!" He sighed checking his vitals.
Without looking at them, "Jao tumlog yaha se!"
Sam wanted to knock some sense into him but Kabir stopped, "Theek hai hum jaayenge, lekin Arjun yaad rakhna humhara baat khatam nahi hua!"
After their exit, Arjun brokedown, a tear escaping his eye, "Bacha! Please utho! Aur kitna sathaoge apne bhaiya ko! Bahut hochuka abh, uth jao! I promise aaj ke baad kabhi akela chodke nahi javunga mei! Utho na chote!" He pleaded caressing his face, but shree remained still.
It was early morning Manik arrived with the antidote before it was too late, Kabir admistered the antidote, "aur dho doses ek gante ke baad dena hai!" .
After few hours, Shree stirred in his sleep, trying to open his eyes slowly groaned as he felt whole body stiff which hurt him. He felt something on his face tried to remove but a hand stopped him calling him to open eyes.
Arjun who noticed his actions, gently caught his hand, "chote!""
Shree fighting to open his eyes, trying to reach the voice made a whimper but nonetheless he slowly opened his eyes and the first thing that came to his view is his brother whispered, "Bh..a...iy..a!" with difficulty.
Arjun closed his eyes in relief hearing his voice, caressing his hair he leaned down to press a kiss on his forehead, "Tumhare ankhe dekhne keliye taras gaya mei!"
Shree tried to talk but the mask was making it difficult tugged to remove it but Arjun gently caught his hand, "Nahi chote! Rehne dhe usse!"
Tears spilled from his eyes which broke him, "bacha please rona nahi!" wiping those. "Janta huh tum yeh nikalna chahte hoh par jiju ko ane tak wait karo!" and asked the nurse to call Kabir.
Kabir with vivek entered inside, but got startled as Shree breaths became hazy. Arjun felt his hand sqeezed, placed hand on top of his, "Chote dekho mei yahi huh! Mere taraf dekho!" He cupped his face blocking others from his view which instantly calmed him.
"Chote kya hua bacha! Jiju hih toh hai, unhe apko dekhna hai, tumhe yeh mask nikhala haina!" When he nodded, "Phir jiju ko paas ane dho! Woh tumhe hurt nahi karega jante hoh na! He loves you right!" He coaxed him. Shree nodded slightly, Arjun straightened himself, glancing at Kabir who stepped near to them.
Smiling at him, " Kaise lagraha?" Taking the stethoscope he checked his vitals. Looking up, "yeh mask nikhal raha huh theek hai!" Saying he removed the mask.
Kabir forwaded his bed that he is leaning back, checked his eyes. Turning his gaze to Arjun, he blinked in assurance. Shree looking at his brother, "Bhai!" Forwarding his hand. Arjun got up from his place and sat beside him wrapping a arm around his shoulder careful of his injuries.
Shree leaned on to him hiding his face in his chest, "Mujhe yaha nahi rahna!" He mumbled as the place was making him uncomfortable.
"I know! Bas ek baar jiju tumhe clear kardhe humhe ghar wapas jayenge!" He assured looking up.
"Haa chote! Bas kuch tests aur hum ghar jayenge! Sabse milna chahte hoh? " He asked.
Shree slowly nodded, first his parents along with Sakshi entered. Watching him Arpita cried, "Beta!" Caressing his face.
"Mom, Mei theek huh! Bhai batayiye na mom ko na roye!" He whispered, "Mom please!"
"Kaise lagraha beta?" Suryakant kept hand on his head felt him nod. Sakshi stood silently at the back giving them time. All entered whom he assured that he is fine. Though they can feel that he is keeping a brave front.
Sam came last, watching him Arjun got up from the bed, felt shree holding his hand, "Chote mei yahi par huh! Tumhe apne sam bhai se gale nahi milna hai kya?"
Nodding shree left his hand, while Sam took Arjun's place. Pressing a kiss on his forehead, "Tum theek hoh?"
Shree nodded, Sam holding his hand, "I am sorry bacha! Aapko iss dard se nahi bachapaya meine! Maaf kardo mujhe!" he pleaded eyes welled up.
Shaking his head, "Nahi bhai! Agar mei zinda huh toh aapke karan hai! Warna mei toh..." His words were stopped by Arjun's shout, "Bas Shree!" in loud voice.
Shree shook in fear, "Arjun!" Sakshi chided him for raising his voice. Noticing him Arjun clenched his fist controlling his anger resumed his place pulling him into his embrace, "I am sorry! Mujhe chillana nahi chahiye tha!"
Shree nodded holding his hand tightly. "Tumse milne koi aya hai!" Arjun said knwoing he would get suprised.
Blinking his eyes with confusion, as he met everyone, his family, team etc, "Kaun? aur sheen nahi ayi?"
"Sheen ko exam hai chote! Woh tumse kal milne ayegi! Lekin pehle inse toh milo!" Saying he nodded at Ali who went out to call them.
Shree looked with anticipation, as soon as the three entered inside, he got suprised, "Tum log!"
Coming towards him, "Kaise laga suprise!" Manik smiled at him.
"Suprise kam shock hai! Kyu aye tum log yaha?" He got worried as they would definately get involved in his affairs.
"Hum kyu aye baad mei baat karthe lekin batao abh kaisa lagraha?" The three asked to which he nodded, "I am fine!" He felt tired sitting for long time, closed his eyes.
Watching him Arjun helped him to sleep properly, "aram karo! Mei yahi tumhare paas huh! Aur tumsab bahar jao!"
Next he opened his eyes due to bad dream looked around for his brother, but there was no one in his vicinity which sent him into panic, as Arjun was with Kabir talking with a specialist. He saw the nurse trying to check his vitals shook his head, startling her but his gaze struck on the IV, remembering the torture he pulled it injuring his hand, "Sir! Please aap woh nahi nikhalsakthe!" She tried to stop him but instead he pushed her getting up from the bed pushing away all the devices, his friends who were outside listening to commotion came inside got stunned watching him, "Shree!"
"Bhai kaha hai?" He mumbled weakly, "Shree! Pehle tum shaanth hojao Arjun bhai Dr se baat karrahe!" Ali and Manik tried to hold him but he pushed them away, "Nahi mujhe bhaiya se milna hai!" and took step forward but his legs gave up, Nirvan and virat who were beside held him, "Shree! Aramse!"
Manik looking at Ali, "Jao Arjun bhai ko bhulake avo!" Who ran from there.
Shree was getting out of control and his breathing heightened, "Shree! Arjun bhai arrahe please calm down, tumhara tabeeth abhitak theek nahi hua!"
Trying to free from their grip, "Chodo! Mujhe bhaiya se milna hai please!" He fought, pleaded which was paining them but they held him in tight grip so he wouldn't get hurt. Seeing him going out of control, "Sister!" Manik called nodding at her.
Taking the syringe he went towards him, "Sorry shree! Par tumhe istaraf takleef mei nahi deksakte hum!"
Shree tried to wriggle from their grip, with all the strength he could muster he pushed them with force. Before he could take a step he found himself in familiar arms, whispered, "Bhai!"
Arjun who came as soon as Ali imformed him, wrapped arms around his brother, "Shh! Chote! Bas mei yahi huh! Tumhare paas!" Felt arms tightened around him.
Taking the condition of room, "Chote yeh kya kiya aap?" He whispered softly, as Kabir nodded at him, he rolled his left sleeve. Shree felt a sharp pain before he could process hissed, "Ahhh! Bhai!"
Rubbing his back, "Bas! Ek sec bacha!" He comforted him, "Hogai!" and pressed a kiss on to his head. Soon with medicine effect Shree fell limp in his arms. Looking down at him, Arjun lifted him in his arms frowned with the light weight made him lie properly on the bed.
"Kya hua tha?"
They replied what happened, to which Arjun nodded caressing his face. Once he slept, "Jaan! Formalities puri karo, tests hothe hih shree ko ghar lejarahe hum!" Arjun informed her, his decision shocking them.
"Arjun!" Kabir tried to state otherwise but ignoring him, "Kabir chote ko ek shan yaha rehne nahi dene wala mei abh! Test karo!"
Soon after the tests, Shree was shifted to home admist tight security..watching Arjun the security back at home got afraid as how would he react for failing to protect shree.
Arjun stayed with shree not allowing anyone inside! Watching him from outside, "Kabir! Mujhse dekha nahi jaa raha! Jitna strong banne ki koshish karraha woh ander se utna hoh tooth chuka aur humhe paas ane bhi nahi deraha!" Sam sighed dejectdly.
"Hmm! Par humse galti toh hua! Pehle uske diye huye zimmedari nahi nibhaya humne aur usse sach chupane ki koshish ki!" Kabir replied knowing if he is not treating shree even he wouldn't be allowed near, "Woh mujhe bhi paas issliye ane deraha kyunki mei ek Dr huh, mujhse baat bhi keval shree ke halath puchne keliye kartha warna choti aur shree ke doston ke alawa kisise baat nahi karraha woh!"
"Abhitak usse check bhi nahi kiya meine!" He whispered worried from him.
Shree opened his eyes he realised he is in his room. Arjun who was with him smiled, "Uthgai tum!"
"Hmm!"
"Hum toh hospital mei tey na!" He frowned, nodding, "Haa! Lekin jab tum sorahe tey jiju sare test kiya! Bas woh khatam hote hih ghar le aya hum!" Arjun filled in.
He nodded then avoided his brothers eyes remebering the whole ordeal shivered slightly, relaxed as Arjun ran fingers in his hair, "kya hua?"
Shaking his head, he kept quiet knowing very well how would he react, but to confirm he asked, "apko kaise pata mei theek nahi huh!" Shree questioned, "aur aapka mission!"
"Humhara kaam hogaya tha, aur wapas arrahe tey, tabhi mujhe ehsaas hua ki tum dard mei hoh toh jaldi mumbai laute hum!"
"Aapko pata hai kya hua?" He asked still shivering slightly, looking at him he nodded in no, "abhi tak nahi, tere yeh halath mei mujhe kuch aur baat ki dyaan kaise rehta!" He replied, "baat karna chahte hoh?" looking at his eyes
Shree shook his head, looked up as Kabir came inside along with Sam.
Kabir took his hand, it was then he saw the iv in his hand tried to pry it off. But Kabir held his hand, "Chote kya karrahe hoh! Subah bhi nikaldiya tumne, yeh jaruri hai abhi yeh nahi nikhalsaktha mei!"
Arjun turned his face towards him, "Chote kya hua?" Shree nodded in leaning into his chest, "usse nikhalo please!"
"Tumhare body weak hai shree,! IV is must, bahut medicines lena hai tumhe!" Kabir tried to reason but Shree shook his head, "Please jiju!!"
Arjun cupping his face, "Mere taraf dekho! Kuch nahi hoga tum waha dyaan mat dho theek hai!" Shree nodded leaning into his shoulders.
"Chote jiju ko check karne dho!" But Shree shook his head, Kabir sighed checking him as possibly he could.
He took his temperature, which was still high. Shree whimpered shaking vigorously shocking them as kabir took out a syringe filling medicine in it.
Holding him tightly, "Chote kya hua?"
"Bhaiya please nahi!" He pleaded hiding his face. Arjun frowned but understanding immediately what happened, "Bachu kuch nahi hoga!"
He shook his head remembering the torture, "acha uss taraf dekho mat!" Arjun wrapped his arms around his shaking frame, stroking his hair.
"tablets yaa IV mei inject kardo bahut dar raha hai yeh!" He advised not able to see him in that condition.
"Arjun, mei yeh IV ke through nahi desaktha! Usse apne taraf mudho! Usse theek karne keliye yeh jaruri hai!"
Sighing he looked down at him, the bandage on his right hand while his left hand catching him tightly, slowly turned him to one side careful of the wounds, slightly lowered his jeans.
Shree sobbed holding Arjun tightly as the needle pierced his skin, and when medicine was injected. Holding the cotton on place he rubbed gently whispering, "Shh hogai! " felt wetness soaking through his shirt leaned hearing his whimper, "Please nahi!"
He understood he is having panic attack, held him closely, "Shree! Mujhe dekho, koi nahi hai yaha! You are safe bacha!" coaxed him gently to sleeo
Arjun sighed as his crying seized and slept due to medicine, ruffled his curls, "Love you chote!" Adjusting him on the bed.
Arjun took care not leaving him for even a moment, In the eveng, Sakshi who was worried for his health, sat beside him taking his hands into hers, "Arjun, kal shyaam se aap kuch nahi khaye, na kuch piye, shree ke bagal se uth bhi nahi rahe aap! Apko bhi rest lena haina!"
"Nahi Jaan! Mei theek huh!" He replied.
"Apne halath dekhiye ayine mei, abh toh yeh jyada samai hosh mei nahi rehraha issliye kuch dyaan nahi deraha lekin Arjun jab yeh medicines pe nahi hoga apke chehre dekh kar pareshan hojayega! Aap yeh nahi chahte na! Jayiye fresh hokar ayiye mei rukhti huh na!" She coaxed him.
Glancing at her then at Shree, "Theek hai! Ek kaam karo mere kapde yaha lekar avo, yahi fresh hota huh mei!"
"Arjun!" She nodded her head in disbelief.
"Jaan! Iss kamre se bahar nahi jane wala mei! Abh jao kapde lekar ajao!" He told nodding at her who went and grabbed his clothes.
While coming she was stopped by Sam who raised his eyebrow, "yeh kya hai?"
"Apka dusre bhai ke kapde! Meine unhe fresh hone ko boli aur woh uss kamre se bahar nahi ana chahte, issliye kapde lekar jarahi huh!" She shook her head.
After her exit, he got into thinking seriously came down and saw his family, "Badepapa mujhe aapse kuch baat karna hai!"
Here inside Shree took his place while Arjun went to get fresh. Having bath he came out, drying his hair, noticed shree got conscious and talking with sakshi, a smile the first genuine smile crept on his face moved towards them silently, "Kya baate horaha bhabhi devar ke beech!"
"Kaise lagraha chote?" He asked caressing his face.
"Mei theek huh bhaiya! Aap chinta mat kijiye!" He replied with smile while sakshi quipped in, "Aur waise bhi humdono ke beech kuch bhi baate horahe aapko kya?"
"Theek hai mat batao lekin jaan, apne devar se puche hoh kuch khana chahte hai ki nahi!"
"Haa...aur meine Kaka se boldiya juice lane keliye! Woh banakar le ayenge!" She informed assuring him.
Shree stared at his face, his gaze shifting onto his chest saw a scratch got panicked, "Bhaiya yeh kya hai?"
Both Arakshi looked at eachother with worry, "Chote! Kuch nahi ek chotasa karoch, mei theek huh!"
"Par bhaiya, apko waha kaise laga?" He frowned but Arjun held his hand, "Hathapayi mei! Abh iskebaare mei chodo, tumhe stress nahi lena hai!"
Shree nodded, "Apna dyaan rakhiye bhaiya!" leaning on to his shoulder while they sighed in relief. Hearing a knock they turned their attention and saw the servant coming with juice.
Taking the tray, she handed the glass to shree, "Chalo pilo! Aur Arjun yeh aapke liye!" and forwarded other glass, ignoring the glare he was giving.
"Jaan! Meine kaha na mei theek huh, phir!" He gritted his teeth while Shree looking at them, "Bhaiya juice hih toh hai, agar aap nahi loge toh mujhe bhi nahi chahiye!" He kept his glass back.
"Chote yeh kaise zidh hai! Tum kamzor hoh, chup chap glass wapas lo!" Arjun warned him.
"Pehle aap!" He huffed crossing his arms. Looking at his stubborn brother then his wife who knew very well to play her cards gave a heavy glare, took a sip from the glass, "Abh kush, chalo tum bhi peelo!"
"Pura peelijiye!" He said lookinga t him who sighed drinking full, "abh kush tumdono?"
They both giggled with a nod, "chalo bahut stall kiya tumne, peelo abh!" and made shree drink the juice.
Because of his medicines he felt dizzy, "itna soya mei phir bhi mujhe needh araha!" He mumbled.
"Dawai ke karan chote, chalo so jao don't fight it! Rest loge tabhi theek hoge na tum!" Arjun replied making him sleep properly. Soon he again slipped into slumber.
Sure of him sleeping he glared at her, "Sakshi kya toh woh sab? Chote ko sahar lekar mujhe juice dena! Kaha na mera mann nahi hai!"
Staring at him, "haa aap boldiya aur mei mangayi! Arjun mujhe chinta horahi apka, kal raaste mei kya hua mei bhuli nahi woh! Agar yeh baat shree ko pata chalega toh kitna pareshan hoga apko anuman nahi hai kya! Uske samne beemar padna chahte aap?" She reverted while he became silent.
"Issliye mujhe koi afsoos nahi agar Shree ke karan hih sahi aap kuch khaloge toh mujhe uske sahara lene se koi nahi rokhega aur mei phir karunga Jarurat pade toh!"
"Jaan! Janta huh pareshan hoh, lekin mujhe kuch nahi hoga! Ghar mei koi theek se kuch nahi khaya hoga unka dyaan rakho!" He advised knowing very well about his family, "Mom ki khaas dyaan rakho, woh bahut rorahi thi!"
"Arjun aur kitna naraz rahoge aap unsab se! Mana ki galti hua unhe aapse shree ke baare mei nahi chupana chahiye tey, lekin isstarah bina baat karna yeh theek nahi! Maa, Papa, chotimaa, chote papa, bhai, jiju sab pareshan hai aapko lekar!" She tried to mend the distance.
"Jaan! Isvishay pe koi baat nahi! Abh jao! Aur haa ek kaam karo, mera laptop lekar dho mujhe, kuch kaam hai!" He stopped the conversation. Nodding she went and brought his laptop and came down.
Arjun called khanna, to know what exactly happened as till now he couldn't focus on it. Hearing him he yelled, "Aur tum tamash dekhte rahegai! Kaha hai woh dono?" He gritted his teeth dangerously.
"Usse itna tourture karo ki joh dard mere bhai ko hua usse hazara guna dard undono ko hona chahiye lekin maarna nahi! Un dono ki maut khud mere haathon mei hoga!"
Hearing from the security, "Abh theek hai woh! Lekin isse chodke abhi nahi aasaktha mei! Aur Khanna thanks, tumsab usse bachane ki koshish toh kiye! Aur mei janta huh agar Shree tumsab ko weapons pehkne keliye na bolte toh mera bhai ka yeh haalth Kabhi nahi hone dete tumlog! Tumsab theek haina! Kisko chot yoh nahi aye na?" He asked softly as they are practically his family.
"Theek hai apna dyaan rakho!" Saying he ended the call.
Staring at his baby brother innocent face, Arjun eyes became red and hardened. "Shikender, janta tha issab ke peeche tumhara haath hoga! aajtak mei tumhe zinda pakadna chahta lekin isske baad nahi! Aaj tak khanoon ko hath mei nahi lena chahta par abh mujhe koi bandhan nahi roksaktha tu kahi par bhi hoh bahut jald tumhe apne cave se bahar nikaldunga! Wada raha Arjun Suryakant Rawte ka, agle chaubees ganthe mei tumhare uss Lanka ko aag na lagaya toh dekhlena!"
He immediately opened his laptop opening the file in which details of shikender business places was mentioned. He formulated a plan and immediately got in contact with his secret team mates which no one knew except Sameer, who were currently scattered in different places, forwarded them instructions.
