Chapter 11(part 1)

"arey bhai kya yaar. Tune iss bekar show ke liye humari ticket cancel karwa di!" MM fumed in his seat. "mach nach apni bakwas bandh kar!" raghu said in a irritated voice from beside. "arey bakwas main nahin wo stage mein khara huya Buddha kar raha hain. Pichle 1 ghante se pata nahi angrezi mein kya bazaar bzar kiye ja rahe hain. Mere to sun sun ke kaan pak gaye!! Pata nahi baki ke log kaise chup chap sune ja rahe hain. Arey iche acha function to humare basti mein ganpati ke time hota hain." MM said. "mach mach tu apni zawan ko kuch der ki liye fold nahi kar sakta?!" he asked quite angrily. "arey gussa kyun ho raha hain karta hoon na!" MM said. Suddenly MM's phone rang. "arey fulwati!!" MM's face gleamed. "fulwati?!!" raghu asked in confusion. "arey wo sabita aunty ki beti. Kaal se mere ko bahut phone kar rahi hain... ouch rahi thi aap kab ayengey. Dekh kitna popular ban gaya main!" MM said lifting his collar. "arey mereko pata hain wo tujhse pichle mahine ki ration ka bill bharwana hain. Tune free mein liye hain na... iss liye tera wait kar rahi hain." Raghu said. "kya?!! Nahin aise kaise... main abhi baat karta hoon..." MM said. "sun mach mach. Baat karna hain toh bahar jaa. Mere kaan ke niche bazaar bazaar mat kar..." raghu said. "arey jata hoon na..." MM said and sweped out of the place. Raghu concentrated on the program. Even he was feeling so depressed by the speech of that minister. God! When his blabber would come to an end?! He moved his gaze around the hall. All place were filled up with crowd. Suddenly in the small light he saw her again, coming from the back side of stage. ruksana was holding her shoulder. Both of them seemed worried. Raghu frowned looking towards them. Antara and ruksana didn't say a single word after coming out from store room. Both of them could hear the invisible steps of danger approaching slowly towards them. "antara!!" ruku called her. antara looked towards her with bewildered eyes. "sab thik ho jayega antara dar mat!" ruku said to assure her. "main jaan ti hoon ruksana. Fir bhi dar lagta hain." Antara said in low tone. "acha tu ja, tere program ki time ho chukka hain!" ruku said. Antara looked to her with blank face. "kya huya jaa.." ruku said. "apna khayal rakhna ruksana!" antara said. Ruku nodded with worried face. Antara left and went towards back stage slowly. Raghu couldn't hear their convo but he clearly understood that something was wrong. He didn't missed antara's worried face. When he saw her disappearing behind the dias, raghu rushed behind her leaving his seat.

Antara found nargis and afreen there. They were all cheerfully discussing about the program. Antara's heart again started to bit faster. They didn't even know that what was going to happen in future. "hey antara!" afreen rushed to her. antara came out of trance. "hey where have you been yaar? Come on get ready rockstar we have to rock the stage!" nargis said. "yes!" antara said in a dry voice. Nargis and afreen didn't noticed the change in her in excitement. They went near their musical instrument and started their cheer full chat. The prog was only some mins away. Antara looked at the stage. so many noise, so many peoples. Who knew if the place was going to change into grave yard just in a few mins. There he was. Defense minister!! The main target. And just to destroy him so many innocent life would be sacrificed. She prayed to god so that javed ji and others can find the terrorist soon. He felt a lump in her throat. She couldn't take that anymore. She knew that a huge danger was about to come but still she had to act normal and sing for those people. She couldn't do anything. Tears were about to flow down from her eyes, when suddenly someone patted in her shoulder. Antara got startled. She quickly controlled herself and turned back. "you?!" antara asked in confused tone. "arey teri yadast kamjor hain kya?! Abhi kuchi der pehele tune hi toh mere ko andar le aya.." raghu said. She could clearly detect that something is wrong with antara. That gleam, happiness and chirpiness he saw just a moment ago was gone suddenly and there was a hidden nervousness and worry in her eyes. "nahi aisa nahi hain! Main bas puch rahi thi kit um seat chorke yahan kyun aa gaye?" antara tried to keep her cool. Still her voice was shaking a bit. "arey tereko wo...kya kehete hain...haan wo all d best keheneko aya tha!! Par ake dekha ki tu ballon ki tarah mooh fulaye khari hain." Raghu said. "nahin aisi koi baat nahin hain!" antara looked away to avoid his gaze. "acha toh kuch der pahele teri jo 1000 watt wali smile thi wo kaha gaya? Bech dala kisiko?!" he asked making a face. "Please, main bilkul bhi mazak ke mode mein nahin hoon..." antara said quite loudly. Raghu got startled for a while. He never saw her so disturbed. Antara get away from him and stood there holding the dias and again looked towards the stage. She just wanted to hide her face. Cause she was crying silently. Raghu couldn't c her tears as he was facing his back. But looking at her feature he understood that the matter was not so small. "eei, kya huya?" he asked in confused voice. Antara controlled herself. She understood that she was being rude. "I am sorry!!.." antara said in a grieve voice. "arey nahi re... apun samajh gaya. Tujhe tension ho rahi hain na apni...wo kya bolta hain..haan POROGRAM(program) ko le kar. Arey tension nahi lene ka. Mast gati hain tu. Program bilkul hit ho jayega. tu bas man lag eke gana okk?" he said in assuring tone. "kaise gaun man laga ke?!" antara suddenly uttered in a pathetic voice. "kya? Kya boli tu?!!" raghu asked in confusion. Antara didn't gave any answer. Raghu slowly come close to her. But he couldn't courage to c her face. Something was making him hesitant to c her face.He heard her sad sigh. "ab pata nahin mere gale se awaz nikle gi bhi ya nahi!!" she said poorly. "huya kya hain tereko? Mujhe bata na.." he asked in concerned voice. "ek baat batao, agar tum jano ko kuch time baad sab kuch khatam hone wali hain, ye lights, ye sound, ye logon ki awaz, sab kuch gayab ho jayega... Aur yahan kuch bhi nahin hoga to tumhe kaisa lagega?" she asked ithout looking at his face. "dekh teri ye jalebi ki tarah batein na mere bheje mein nahi ghus raha. Sidhe sidhe bata na akhir mazra kya hain?!!" he asked demanding an answer. "acha, agar tumhe pata chale ki tum kuch der baad marne wale ho toh tumhe kaisa lagega?" antara asked in a straight voice. Still she was not able to meet his gaze. Raghu laughed silently. Death was nothing but a game to raghunath naik. From the day he choose the life he was playing hide and seek with death. The way he choose, there was the trap of death in each and every turns, in each and every crossover. Raghunath naik, the merciless killeer! Whose hand never shook to take somenes life, didn't even care about his own life or death. "tu mujhse ye sawal kyun puch rahi hain?! Iska jawab to tere khud ke pass hain!" raghu said. "mere pass?!" antara frowned a little. "yaad hain kuch din pahele uss garden mein tune mujhe kitna lamba lrcture mara tha life ke barein mein?! Bhool gayi?!" he asked. Antara remembered the moment. "kya kaha tha tune mujhe ki tera baap kehete hain ki agey ke barein mein nahin sochne ka. Bas life ke har second ko enjoy karne ka!! Yaad nahi!! yaa mereko bata ne ke baad tera gyan tere dimag se mere dimag mein shift ho gaya?! Hn.." he said in a hurry. Antara was all silently listening to him. She remembered everything. Her papa's word, which he always used to say. "dar ke agey defeat hain, dar ke piche sab sweet hain!" how could she forgot the words!! She suddenly felt her lost courage was coming back. Why was she worried about future?! The time which didn't even approached! Why could she forget that she still had few times to live and to spread her happiness around. Might be for last time, but she still of thousand sec to live. And she knew javed ji and others would be successful. God could never do such bad things for so many innocent peoples. "arey tu mere ko bata na trri problem kya hain... dekh main tun chutki bajake solve kar doongi... maine bahut sari logon ki problem solve ki hain. Sachi mein..." He was cont saying.

Chapter 11(part 2)

Antara suddenly looked back to him. He was startled to c her smilling. That smile was not the usual kind of chirpy smile. It had some hidden sadness, some determination. But still the glow in her eyes was so beautiful. Like she had found her lost life. Raghu was totally dumbfounded by that smile. It was beyond beautiful. Suddenly antara grabbed his right palm with both of her palm. He felt an electric shock ran through her blood lines and he froze. "thank u, thank u so much!!" she said in such a grateful voice. Raghu couldn't give any response. His startled eyes were all fixed to her face. "main to tumhara naam bhi nahi jaan ti hoon..." she suddenly said in a low voice, "par aaj tumne mujhe meri khoyi huyi himmat wapas dila di... thank you so much!!" she said with a huge smile. Raghu was still in trance. Antara suddenly heard that the speaker was announcing their name from stage. so it was the time for her function. "main chalti hoon... Bye!!" she suddenly left his hand and rushed towards the stage. Raghu was fixed at the same posture for a while. After a huge moment a croocked smile appeared in his face. He looked towards his palm. He could still feel her tender touch on his hand. "mention not... CHURAIL!!" he suddenly said with an adoring voice. He ran his hands through his hairs with a bright smile which he gave so rare. And then he ran back to public seat.

The speaker made her announcement about the performance of the girls' band of City College. The light brightened the stage area. Everyone clapped and the hall got filled up with the cheer full sound of people seeing their fav college girls ready to rock the stage.Iin that chaos javed, narendra and others were trying their best to find aman but they got failed. The program started and the beautiful tune of kashmiri string instrument got filled in every corner. Afreen stepped forward and came at front at first and she slowly started to say. "Ae rab jane tu kab apne kadam rahein Kashmir se mor liye. Ae rab bite zamane, abto tune iss zaen par raveya lagane hi chor diye!" she became silent for a while, "Kashmir, himalay ke choti pe bani ye khubsurat si wadiyan. Iske tareef mein toh koi bhi labs fike par jate hain, khuda ne apni sari daulat, sari khubsurti uzar di hain iss choti si zameen mein. Issi liye to kaha jata hain issey... JANNAT!! Is duniya ka ek lauta jannat, jaha khuda baste hain." Afreen said. Then nargis came forward, "par aaj jahanoom ke logon ne fir se iss choti si jannat pe nazar daal di hain. Jaha kabhi fulon ki wadiyan hoti thi.. wahan bas angarey milte hain, jahan sanjh sabere bul bul ki mithi bol gunjte the...wahan ab sirf banduk ki awaze sunayi dete hain... ye barfile pahar bhi aaj chup hain... jor se chikho to bhi awaz nahi ati inse...!! Kyun ki inke safed be-daag baraf pein bhi aaj khoon ke laal chite par chuke hain!!" nargis's voice chocked. Afreen pressed her hand to console her. Finally antara came forward and stood between nargis and afreen holding their hands. She looked to the huge crowd at front with determined face. "par kya hum wapas nahi la sakte un fulon ki khusbuon ko? Un bulbul ke mithi awazo ko... kya hum fir se nahin wapas la sakte hain apni jannat apna Kashmir ko?! Aaj hum apni dhoond se, apni awaz se ek dua mange gey... ek naye ummed ke sath ek naye sapne ke sath... sapna uss jannat ko wapas pane ki... jisme na koi sor ho banduk ki, na khsboo barrod ki... jahan sirf hum ho aur humari khusiyan...!!" Antara finished with a smile. The whole crowd got burst with claps and cheers after finishing their speech. Antara and her friends let out a bright smile as they succeed through their first step. In that crowd aman was standing hiding himself from the eyes of security peoples. But he was not in stable state. The three girls who just made a speech a while ago, shook him heavily inside!! A picture was again flashing in his mind. A little boy and little girl wearing Kashmiri dresses, running in the green field and an elderly woman was seating at a distance keeping her pleasant gaze on them. His long lost childhood. Which he left behind long ago. His sister, his mother!! He didn't even know where were they? But he didn't know why he was remembering about them. He was in an important mission and he couldn't be weak. He heard the msg alert in his mobile. Chief send a msg. "it's time. Get out of the collage as soon as possible and after five mins dial the number to activate the cracker." Aman's jaw became hard. He was hear in a mission. He got at a side and was about to go out and at that moment antara started her song. "... Walo ha baghwano, nauv baharuksaan paida kar.../ falan gul gath karan bul bul tuthyi saman paida kar..."... Aman grounded at the spot. It was the same song which his mother used to sing in his childhood days and he used to listen it with her sister. Everything flashed in front of his eyes. His childhood, full of dreams, his small beautiful village at the foothills of himalay, his school, his friends, that fun in the grounds, throwing water to each other playfully in river jhilam and playing with snowballs in winter. He remembered everything. He still remember his mother and sisters teary eyes when he left them and came to Srinagar to search for a good job and to earn money. And look what he had actually become!! He felt so week in his knee. He stood there leaning on the wall like a lifeless statue. His eyes were all lost.

Antara was all happy seeing the response in crowds. Everyone was cheering them. She even forgot about the matter of bomb. She felt like she was never so happy in her life before. At a distant in that crowd raghu was grinning like a child looking at her cheer full face. He was feeling so relieved after seeing her again like that. He didn't show up but when he saw her worried just a while ago he felt his heart was not biting at all. He was also clapping with the crowds when suddenly his phone vibrated in his pocket. "S**a ab kaun hain vey?!! Kyun galat time pe sab call karta reheat hain..." he said in irritating voice. He let out the phone and saw mai's number in screen. "mai iss time pe?" raghu said and went outside to speak as there was so many crowd. On the other hand antara came forward at the stage and came near the public who was crazily cheering her. she was playing the guiter like a cheerfull bird. While singing, her eyes fell at corner. The exit was just a step away from the stage and in the glowing lights from stage he saw a man standing at the next of exit with lost eyes. He seemed like a lifeless statue. Antara's heartbeat raised again. AMAN!!! She again felt the shiver in her spine. That menas Javed ji and others couldn't find him. But antara didn't panicked. She knew if she create chaos that man would surely ran out through escape. She had to took everything carefully. She searched at the front and found ruksana nearby. She indicated towards her. ruku saw her serious eyes and she understood that there was something. Suddenly antara jumped in the audience with guiter. Ruksana was a bit atartled by her activity. People were cheering louder seeing her there. Antara strightly went towards exit and stand at aman's side. ruksana's eyes never left her. she made a round near aman and looked at ruku. Ruku understood that antara was trying to say her something she saw that antara was hovering around that man near exit. : Antara indiacated towards the man at her behind. Ruksana quickly understood her indication and nodded her head. Antara stepped back towards stage. Aman was still lost in his memory. Ruku didn't waste a single sec and rushed towards aman and pushed him heavily. The mobile phone got out from his pocket. In a jerk aman got out from the trance. "arey arey janab maaf kijiye... humne dekha hi nahi aap ko... wo kya hain ki.." ruku said in an apologetic tone. "koi baat nahi... main chalti hoon..." aman got out in hurry without noticing that the mob was not in his pocket. Ruku took the mobile in her hand with a smile. Antara's somg got finished at that moment. The whole crowd burst in claps. Ruku showed her the mobile phone in his hand with a huge victory smile. They did it! Antara also let out a huge smile and showed her thumbs up.

Precap: She was all dumb stuck looking at the person. She couldn't just believe that he was the one!
