Part 83
Delhi, India
Bharat entered the MD cabin, smiling, unlike the others who were standing silently. Ram's photo placed on the MD chair too seemed bright.
The company was working on the Instructions of Shartughan and Bharat, but all decisions were taken under Ram's name, though he was not physically present. Added to that was the fact that even Bharat visited the office very rarely; he had detached himself from the outside world to say the least. Ram's golden chain was placed on the MD table, as a reminder of his presence.
Bharat stood beside Shartughan and announced, "Okay, hello everyone. I heard that some members of your departments are having problems. What happened? Do they want a raise or something?"
One of the representatives Cleared his throat and said, "No Sir, whatever you give us is perfectly fine. But Sir, the problem is that.."
"What? "
" Sir, to whom should we go to for our problems? We know sir that You and Shartughan Sir are perfect as our heads, but those who have joined new seem to have a problem. I don't know Sir what is wrong with them. "
Bharat sighed and looked down. Once again, he had been indirectly touted at. As if Ram's banishment was his fault.
Hiding his feelings, Bharat spoke up," I am sorry that all of you had to go through this. I will make sure that further no problems will arise. "
The representatives left. Bharat sat on the chair opposite to the MD chair and rubbed his throbbing forehead. His guilt didn't let him face his family anymore.
" Bhaiyya, " said Shartughan, placing his hand on Bharats shoulder," I know that this hurts. But don't back out Bhaiyya, or else Ram Bhaiyya will be upset with you. "
" What's left to be upset, Shartughan, I have already ruined their lives."
"Don't say this Bhaiyya, " he replied softly," The world knows its not your fault. " After a pause, he said," Bhaiyya, Ram and Lakshman Bhaiyya have fallen into another problem. "
" What?! " said Bharat as he looked up at him
.
Reluctantly he said," I didn't want to tell you Bhaiyya but Manvi Bhabi told not to keep this a secret from you. Bhaiyya, Ram and Lakshman Bhaiyya have fallen into Ragahavns trap. "
" That Don Raghavan with whom we had a case? "
" Yes Bhaiyya... A lot of incidents happened.. It all started with.. " Shartughan began narrating the incidents that had happened to his brothers at Manali as his agent there had told him. At the end of it all, Bharat sat shaking on the chair, not being able to grasp or contemplate events of this height.
" Shartughan, I'm not feeling very well. I want to go home. " said Bharat at the end of it all. Shartughan immediately realized something was wrong and holding Bharat by the arm took him home.
(9pm)
Bharat sat on the bed in his room, with Manvi by his side.
" Manvi, it's all my fault. Because of me today Ram Bhaiyya, Bhabi, Urmila and Lakshman are in such a dangerous situation.. I should have forced them to come with me. "
" Bharat, try and understand. It's not your fault. Whatever is happening is no one's fault. Raghavan has personal enmity with Ram Bhaiyya, and no one caused that. I'm sure it'll be over. "
" Manvi, didn't you hear what happened to them? How much personal enmity does he have with Ram Bhaiyya that he tried to kill them? "
Manvi talked with him for a while and tired, fell asleep, hoping that he might have understood. Bharat too gave her the assurance, but both of them knew that Bharat was not completely convinced.
At 11:30 pm, Bharat walked down the stairs and reached the main gate of the house, without waking anyone. In his hand, he had a small suitcase.
Bharat drove his car out all by himself and when his driver asked where he was going with the keys, he just replied, much to the cluelessness of the driver,
"I can't live with them in this guilt. I need to stay alone. "
"--------------"-------
Raghavan sat in his room on the royal sofa chair. He was in deep thinking, rather planning. His sister had to be avenged, Becuase she was insulted. And an insult to her meant an insult to her family.
More than an avenge of Shipras insult, Raghavan had business scores to settle with Ram and personal ones With Siya. He couldn't leave this chance.
Malini came in and stopped a few feet away from. Him with her hands fidgeting with each other. She wanted to say something.
After a long silence, Raghavan spoke, "Malini, if you want to say something, speak it out. Don't stand in front of me like a statue."
Malini shook up and spoke, "Sorry.. I.. Raghavan, I think that.. That whatever you are planning to do to Ram and his family is wrong."
Raghavan looked up at her. "Why?" he asked coldly.
"Raghav, if you see closely, they haven't committed any such crime to be punished on. And about your enmity with them, you can't do much about it. So, why push yourself into this unnecessary mess? "
Raghavan got up. The sound of his creaky shoes scared Malini.
" Don't interfere in what I do, okay? Becuase I think about winning, not like you, a loser for life. "
Tears fell from Malinis eyes. But Raghavan didn't notice. He never did.
Raghavan walked into his meeting room.. The few people already seated there stood up.
Raghavan sat at the head chair and announced,"
You all know what has happened.. So tell me what to do next . "
One of them was Mahesh. He stood up and said," Sir, we have got to know that they will be staying here only for about 2 years now. I'm saying only 2 years because Raghavan Sir, you might have noticed, if so much can happen in this time, 2 years won't be much. And also, in 2 years time we might have to move out of here. "
Indraneil, too seated there added," But dad, the thing is we need to do things keeping in mind that a. They are very powerful too, they have the locals support
B. We need to do it I'm discreet
So what do we do? I Mean do you want to hire contract killers or maybe send two three men when the girls are alone.. "
Raghavan stood up.
" No. I want to fight them with My own hands. I have many, many scores to settle and many things to tell. I know who can help me in this. "
" Who? "asked all. Of them in Unison.
" Come with me. "
