PART 14 A
Anika slumped down on the floor with tears in her eyes & Yog who was standing next to her was so stunned that it took some moments to register what he saw. After while he came back to senses & was about to ran towards the burning car but was pulled back strongly by Anika Rama Kant & Raghav with much difficulty.
Anika next moment informed police & Fire brigade & then rushed towards the car checking things but was stunned to see that Manohar was nowhere in the car.
Anika rushed to Yog who was totally lost & stunned saying "Yog! Papa safe hai unhe kuch bhi nahi hua ... ander koi bhi nahi hai"
Yog immediately rushed to car along with Anika & checked she was right he said taking a sigh of relief "Haan! Yaha to koi nahi hai fir Papa gaye kaha? ... maine apni aankho se unhe is gaadi main baithe dekha fir blast hote bhi dekha ... ye sab aakhir ho kya raha hai?"
Anika said controlling him "Yog! aap pehle shant ho jaayiye hume pehle Papa ko dhoondna hoga shayad wo yahi kahin hoo"
After few minutes Police force & Fire brigade took charge of the situation & Anika said taking the situation in her hand flashing her ID Card "ACP Anika Purohit! ... Yaha jo Blast hua hai humari gaadi main uski poori report chahiye mujhe ...
Mere Father in Law yaani IAS Manohar Vashisht bhi isi gaadi main the jab blast hua hai par ab is gaadi main koi nahi hai aap apni kaarvahi poori keejiye aur jald se jald unhe dhoondne ki koshish keejiye ye bahut important hai" Police nodded & got into action.
All were standing there perplexed as what had happened entire Vashisht family was standing with stunned faces.
Rama Kant was first one to recover from the shock & asked "Anika beta! ye sab kya ho raha hai ... aur Bhai saab kaha hai?"
Anika said taking a deep sigh "Kaka! I am sorry mujhe bhi utna hi pata hai jitna aap logo ko main in logo ke saath milke Papa ko dhoondne ki koshish karti hoon aap please Yog ka dhayan rakhiye ye sab dekh kar wo bahut pareshaan ho gaye hai"
Rama Kant nodded & along with Raghav started to take care of shattered & confused Yog who was just sitting like a statue not knowing what to do.
Anika instructed the Police & went to Yog & placed a palm on his shoulders & said consoling him "Yog Please! aap thodi himmat rakhiye aapko mujhpe bharosa hai na ... Main Papa ko har haalat main dhoond ke nikaalongi"
Yog looked at Anika with glassy eyes & nodded in positive she turned to Rama Kant & said "Kaka! aap sab jaajiye main yaha sambhaal loongi aur jaldi ghar laut aaungi wo bhi Papa ki pakki khabar ke saath"
Rama Kant said "par beta tum ..."
Anika said cutting him short "Kaka! main ek Police officer hoon jurm se ladna mera kaam hai aur fir ye to mera apna ghar hai"
Rama Kant nodded & all went back home but Yog was still not convinced he wanted to stay with Anika but she sent him back with family as she didn't wanted Yog to get panic in such a situation & moreover he will be more safe at home.
After Vashisht family left for home Anika called up Dutta as she wanted to speak to her about the mess just happened. To her bad luck number was not reachable she tried couple of times but still could not reach him. Little later after completing the investigation she started to move back to her house without any clue or news in her hands.
She was very tense about Manohar as she had searched the whole area of the blast but there was no sign of anyone & it looked that Manohar has vanished somewhere in the air.
She was even tense for Yog and the entire family as how they will react to all this especially Yog as he loved his father dearly & all this sequence pointed that this was something graver & she was on the right track that someone from the family itself was involved in all this as this picnic was only known to family members.
Anika reached home & was bombarded with all sorts of questions. Anika said informing all "Maine waha ke saari jagah ki taalashi li hai par Papa ka koi pata nahi chala abhi tak ... maine local police ko bhi alert kar diya hai wo aas paas ke ilake main Papa ko khojne ki koshish kar rahe hai yadi kuch pata chalta hai to wo hume khabar kar deenge"
Rama Kant asked "Mujhe to ab bhi yakeen nahi aa raha ki koi Bhai saab ke saath aisa kar sakta hai ... koi aise unhe maarne ki ya kidnap karne ki koshish kare mujhe yakeen nahi hota ...
maana Bhai saab ke dushmano ki kami nahi hai par kya unme se kisi ki itni himmat ho sakti hai?"
Anika said with a sigh "Main pata lagane ki koshish karungi Kaka aap sab aaram keejiye raat kaafi ho chuki hai aur Police bhi apna kaam kar rahi hai bahut jald Papa ka pata chal jaayega"
All nodded and dispersed to their rooms but Yog was restless & irritated now he was boiling in anger & was waiting for Anika to come inside the room.
Anika entered the room an as soon as she moved towards the bed Yog grabbed her strongly & pulled her towards himself & voiced in a deadly calm tone "Anika! mujhe ye jaana hai ki ye harquat kisne ki hai ...
tumhe jo karna hai karo infact main khud IG sir se baat karunga ki wo is case ko tumhe de mujhe Papa sahi salamt aur jaldi wapis chahiye"
Anika got bit stunned seeing such range in his eyes & said consoling him "Yog Clam down! Papa ko hum kuch nahi hone deenge aur main poori koshish karungi apne best informer ko lagaungi kaam pe aur jald se jald Papa ko dhoond ke laaungi"
Yog had calmed after her assurance & said hugging her apologetically "I am sorry Anika jab tumne mujhse kaha tha ki is ghar ka koi mujhe maarna chahta hai to maine tumhari baat pe vishwaas nahi kiya ...
aaj Papa ke saath jo hua usse mujhe yakeen ho gaya hai ki koi ghar ka isme involved hai warna Picnic waali baat to sirf ghar ke logo ko hi pata thi mujh pe ya Papa pe aisi jagah humla hona ... Matlab ki koi is ghar ka vakai humari jaan ka dushman hai"
Anika said parting "Yog! you don't have to sorry aap apni jagah bilkul theek the ... Main poori koshish kar rahi hoon ki jald se jald koi suraag mile par surprisingly mujhe kuch bhi nahi mila Papa ko gaadi se kaun kaha le gaya kuch pata nahi ... aapko pata hai maine waha ke lagbhag poore area ko chaana par no use kuch bhi nahi mila ... ye koi bahut badi saazish hai"
Yog said in anger "bas ek baar wo mere saamne aa jaaye main use chodunga nahi wo yadi saamne se vaar karta ya sirf mujhpe vaar karta to shayad main use chood deta ...
Par ye koi apna hai jo peeth pe vaar kar raha hai ise main bilkul nahi chodunga"
Anika said in a determined tone "Yog! main aapko vishwaas dilati hoon ki ye jobhi hai bahut jald pakda jaayega par aapko isme mera saath dena hoga ... is ghar main kisi ko pata nahi chalna chahiye ki hume pata hai ki ye sab isi ghar se kisi ne karaya hai ...
maine apne informer ko account ki details nikaalne ke liye kaha tha aur jaise hi mujhe wo detail pata chal jaayegi usse kaafi haddh tak sab saaf ho jaayega"
Yog said in an anxious tone "Kya pata chala hai account ke baare main?"
Anika said "Abhi to kuch khaas nahi jab pata chalega to main sabse pehle aapko hi bataungi ... ab aap aaram keejiye raat kaafi ho gayi hai"
Anika was about to move & change when Yog said pulling her back "Thanks Anika! shayad tum nahi hoti to main aaj shayad khud ko sambhaal nahi pata ...
Papa ke saath aisa hota dekhkar mujhe samajh main nahi aa raha tha ki main kya karu ander se toot sa gaya tha main ... Jitna Pyar Papa mujhse karte hai na utna main bhi unse karta hoon unhe kuch bhi nahi hona chahiye"
Anika said consoling him "Maine aapse kaha hai na ki Papa ko kuch nahi hoga wo jaha bhi hoonge bilkul theek hoonge aap itna mat soochiye ...
aapne kaha thana ki hum alag nahi hai to jis tarah Papa ke stroke main aapne mera saath diya usi tarah isme main aapka saath doongi "
Anika with lots of difficulty made Yog lie down & rest she knew what he must be feeling at this point of time; helpless & deceived.
She sighed heavily & after a while when she realized that Yog is in deep sleep she covered him with comforter & lay next to him.
Suddenly she sensed a buzz in her mobile & she checked her mobile it was a message from Dutta asking her to meet outside the house & it was very urgent. Anika was bit stunned after reading but quietly tip toed towards the main door without disturbing anyone's sleep.
