IV

But as she approached the others, she hid her smile, she was determined not to share her secret with others , at least not now.

"Hai main to bhool gayee, mere parents to is waqt Delhi main hai. Main ab kahan jau?
The others looked at each other .
Suddenly Neelu said, " To kya? Humare ghar hai na. You can stay with us till your parents return."
"Yes why not?" Yudi added.

So it was decided that Ali would take Pooja home. And the rest will now stay in Yudi's place. Once it is Huda's time to go back home , Alekh will accompany him.

They got up on the car. Ali and Pooja took lift up to the Bus-stand. Rest went to Yudi's place.


All four of them – Yudi, Neelu, Alekh and Naina stood there apprehensively as Neelu rang the bell . They were received at the living room with raised eyebrows. Yudi's parent were already aware about the incidents at KMA and were sorry for the sad demise of Captain Rajveer. Mr. Sahani was certainly not in sympathetic terms with Major Nair.
Yudi's Mom, being the simple person she is, at once felt sorry for poor Naina and warmly invited her to stay with them as long as Naina would need.
Well, Alekh's presence was taken with a pinch of salt and agreed upon that he would leave with Huda after seven days.

The cadets were invited to a simple dinner of roti , sabzi , rajma and dahi. Yudi's Mom observed that Naina was not eating, she was just putting the spoon to her mouth and down. "Naina beta , tum bahut thak gayee ho, , ja ke araam karo,. " said Mrs Sahani.

After dinner, Naina was packed off to Neelu's room and Alekh to Yud's.
.
As Naina went to bed she already had made a plan of action. She was sure Rajveer wanted her to find out Lt. Chaubey who might have the link to Rajveer's current whereabouts.

So she must first get Chaubey's contact number. But how?

Before she realized, Naina was fast asleep.


It was twilight time. The sky had a lovely shade of orange and blue. The western side seemed to be on fire but the light that fall on Naina's white sareee was a soft shade of pink and gave the sari a hue of pink and orange . Naina was sitting under a tree , her hair all lose and swinging in the light breeze. She had someone close to her bosom on her lap. He was tired and had his eyes closed. Maybe he was in a deep and peaceful slumber. One sleeps like that when for days one is deprived of sound sleep and closeness to near and dear ones.

Naina was lovingly passing her fingers through the tangles of soiled and unwashed hair which were earlier always perfectly groomed and gelled . Her fingers moved over the closed eyelids, and the slightly crooked nose. She loved that nose. The way he flared his nostrils when upset with her. Naina smiled thinking of many such incidents at KMA.

She felt the rough stubble on his face and rubbed her palm and back of hand against them. The tingling she felt on her hand was at once transmitted to her brain like an electric shock, in turn bringing the tingling sensation to every part of her body.
She outlined the lips with her fingers The lips were now dry and cracked , but that did not stop Naina from planting a small kiss on them.

Rajveer woke up and tried to get up balancing on his elbows. He turned around and hugged Naina closely . They remained still like that for long.

The pistol shots were sharp and clear and hit Rajveer on his back , three of them , he fell over Naina , who shrieked aloud………….."Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiir……….."

But it was Huda who had taken the bullets aimed at her!! It was HUda who was still in the KMA.

Naina was fully awake. She was panting , her chest moving up and down . Drops of sweat appeared on her forehead . She looked around the dark room, faintly lit by a nightlamp and Neelu was sleeping peacefully on her bed.

Naina got up and helped herself to a glass of water. What a nightmare !!

But she knew that HUda could help her to get the contact number of Chaubey .

She went to bed again, determined to ring up Dr. Shalini next morning and ask about HUda's condition.

"Hello kya main Dr. Shalini se baat kar sakti hoon?".
"Aap kaun bol rahe hai?"
"Unki rishtedar"

"Please wait,"

," Yeh mera kaun sa rishtedar hai, mujhe dus saal bad KMA mein yaad kya ," saying to herself, Dr. Shalini received the call," Hello, aap kaun hai?"

"Madam, " Naina waited few seconds, " Madam, main Naina bol rahi hoon. Huda kayesa hai?"
" Oh, N….", Dr Shalini gave a piercing glance at the operator ," Oh ! Aap Huda kai rishtedar hai?, Zaroor aap baat kar sakte hai. " She asked the orderly to transfer the phone line to the infirmary. She remained standing there keeping the operator busy with silly questions.


"Hello, " said Naina.
"Hello," Huda missed a heartbeat. He has been waiting for this call since yesterday, "Phoolan tu kaisi ha?"

" Huda Sun , tujhko mere liye ek kaam karma parega."

" Ek kaam kya , hazaar kam karne ke liye tayar hoon." thought HUda,

"Bol, ter liye main kya kar sakta hoon ?" asked HUda.

"Library ja kar , jaise bhi ho , Lt Chaubey ka contact number and address lene parega" .

"Okay, madam, consider it done , lekin tu kahan se bol rahi hai?"

Naina only said, "And send that number to Yudi's house. "

"Phoolan, tu mera hal nahin …." Huda wanted to complain.

But Naina has already cut the connection. She has nothing else in her mind now except that she has to find Rajveer.

After breakfast when all the young people were sitting around in Yudi's room, they decided once again to visit the shootout place. By the time they managed the car, it was already late afternoon.

As they approached the accident point, Alekh , who was driving the SUV made an about turn, drove for 100 meters and hid the car behind a dhaba. All of them got down and sat around a charpai of the dhaba. The army jeep, the car and two people could be seen from here .

The cadets ordered some lassi and started to talk about their future plan, all the while keeping an eye on the happenings near the fortress. After about half an hour, those people got to their respective vehicles and flew past the dhaba within ten minutes.

They could not spot the Army personnel or rather did not recognize him. But Naina had recognized Lalaji's face behind the glass of the white car window.


As the cadets came near the fortress they found the jeep skeleton gone, along with the tricolor they put over it.
"Something interesting is happening here. Too many people are interested in this incident.!? ", thought Alekh.
Alekh, Neelu and Yudi went to the spot where Rajveer had hoisted the National Flag up. They sat together in a small circle, with folded hands and closed eyes and prayed for the peace of Rajveer's soul.

Naina walked pass the opening to the spot where she and Rajveer had declared their love silently to each other. She sat silently there and lovingly caressed the ground. If she never found Rajveer, this place would be her pilgrimage destination. She would come here at least once a year and pay her respect to their love, love that had hardly got a chance to express itself with physical touch, hugs and kisses , she even did not know when she had started to love him or he - her. The love that before giving her the ecstatic bliss of a new bride, has given her the agonies of widowhood.


When they returned home, it was already dark. Yudi's parents were watching television.
"Bachche log , thak gaye hoge na, jadi se dinner pe a jao," Yudi's mom kindly addressed them.
"Auntijee koi telephone aya KMA se, " asked Naina .

"Was Huda supposed to ring?" queried Yudi.

"Nahin bete , koi bhi bhi call nahin kiya . " answered Auntijee.

That evening, Naina did not come down for dinner complaining of severe headache. Neelu brought a glass of milk for her. She kept it on the bedside table. She could feel the bed shaking with the sobs Naina was trying to conceal. Neelu had heard about Naina's ill-fated love from Alekh. She was at a loss of word to console her. She just sat beside her and held her hands. "Naina please drink the milk, you will feel better. Naina got up, rubbed her eyes and gave a tearfull smile to Neelu.

"Tera itna pyar kahbi nishfal nahin hoga. Tujhe Rajveer zaroor milega. " Neelu said, "Eh sirf tasalli nahin hai."

Next mooning Huda got up early and packed his bag. He was feeling quite fresh after a week of rest. Though his chest still hurt a little, it was not as unbearable as it was at the beginning.
He planned to say Goodbye to all the teachers and staff excluding Major Nair and Captain Rai Chauhan.

Huda started with the canteen. He bade farewell to Suriji. The latter held him and said "Puttar, tumlog zaroor wapas ayenge.

Next he went to the library . The lady-officer, who was the librarian, was arranging some books on the shelf as Huda entered.
"Good morning Ma'am," Huda said, " Aap sab teachers aur staff ke ye kam par devotion ke liye hi hum yahan ke do saal kaise bita dete, pata hi nahin padta. "

"Thank you Cadet Huda , hope you are okay now,' replied the librarian Madam,
"Yes jaane ke pahle , main aap sab ki addresses lena chahta hoon – yeh manzur hain?", asked huda.

"Kyun Nahin? ---- abhi main thora busy hoon, ek kaam karo, yahan jo computer hai, usmaein sare army officers ke pata mil jayega.

"He he – this is exactly what I wanted," chuckled Huda.

He quickly clicked the mouse and chose the letters c------h ------------------------b---
He found three Chaubeys in the list - two lieutenants and one colonel. Huda quickly jotted down the address and contact numbers of both the lieutenants. And he did not forget to collect the librarian's home addres too.
"Thank You Madam " he ran out of the room.

Huda took out his bike which he rode when he first came to KMA, filled it up with petrol from KMA garage and started for Yudi's house. He realized that out of excitement he had forgotten to take the address of Yudi's house. So at the next STD-PCO box on his way, he brought the bike to stand still, collected the required coins from a nearby shop and called Yudi's house.

"Yudiye , bol ter address , Main aa raha hoon," Huda retorted without listening to the voice on the other side.
"Huda tu ne wo Chaube sir ka address collect kar saka? " It was Naina on the other side. No hello, no how you are. Huda was frightened about Naina. Why has she become so one track minded? "Phoolan, Main abhi aata hoon," hung up Huda.

As he harshly kicked his bike to start, he realized that he did not have the address yet. So he again ran to the telephone booth. Thus time Neelu answered the phone and gave the address to Huda.

Whole morning Naina was pacing up and down from the front door to the telephone table. She felt like picking up a dart and aiming on a dart board. She understood why Rajveer Sir always played around with his dart. How effective dart throwing is for keeping oneself calm! She remembered that day when she had found Sir to be really angry with her.
"Naina , tum Navin ki bahen hone ka layek nahin ho "
It seemed Rajveer Sir is speaking just behind her. She swiftly turned around and saw the curtains flying wild in the afternoon breeze. It seemed that Rajveer has just passed by the window. She ran to the window and looked around .

Raj came from behind and embraced Naina, putting his head on her shoulder. He kissed her neck and her ear, softly biting her earlobe. Naina felt very shy and blushed all red . " AAp……………………".
She tried to turn around.
Alekh was standing just behind her.

The piercing sound of the door-bell filled the whole house.
