Chapter 13
Got to know her father was poisoned, she came across with the direct connections of their farm with a woman-trafficking racket, then an attempt to the witnessed which hit her directly, the search in the house, the burning diary; then the rituals of cremations
I know... tough to imagine it all happened in a day though since it's been spread over many chapters! Thanks for the recap Stuti
>> I thought it will be helpful.😳if she does not get to sleep early because of Jalal's late, how it feels? Though she was trying not to get angry as she knew Jalal must have gone to get some important information which will reveal the mysteries...
"So kind of you to think about my tiredness... Jodha smiled instead of getting angry. "I sent everyone to take rest as all were exhausted, so I had to stay to serve you dinner...
Meri ma... that poor chap has also had a tiring day just like yours, putting up with your relatives and then been out all this while to get info for your dad's case...
😆
Angry ko chod... you must welcome him with your arms around his neck! 😳
Aree she was not angry na! 😆
Good idea. Going t apply this one. 😉
"Enough of information in hand. Only it needs to arrange them properly to get into conclusion... Jalal murmured unmindfully...
"What? That means you found the murderer? Jodha jumped in excitement.
"No... Just... just something... Jalal bit his lips... "No; still many things are missing... many clues are still hidden... He shook his head to get out of the hangover of thoughts and concentrated on his plate.
For a second, even I wondered if he was close to solving... till I read the underlined!
Abhi to ek or khulasa baki hay 😆
"So girls were taken out of the village in the name of income and sent to that art-mela', then they used to get missing forever! Jodha uttered amazedly. "
🤢
"Yes... I have a plan to set out at 10 am tomorrow. I will come back with force soon..."
Be safe Jodha and Jalal! Maybe he should take Jodha with her.. esp after the attack
Aree nothing will happen! 😛
Bacchu had received phone frequently from your father's phone. And just before his consecutive phone calls to Surya he had got one call and one sms from your father..."
Bachu - Surya - Bharmal connection kyaa hai! 🤔
😉
"I went to nearby township Wather... Needed some riddles to solve out. He frowned deeply.
😕 Riddles bol bhi de na..
To aap logo ko pata chal jayega! 😆
25th December, early morning...
The ranges of the hills mingled with the horizon under the curtain of fog; a mysterious hangover of mist is mixed in the cold breeze of this wintery morning in the paths of the village.
Jalal, who was in his tracksuit jogging through the muddy paths of the village for the first time in this holidays,
I hope he was wearing a warning sign as well... as he jogged! 😆 Then again, there was Jodha by his side... so I guess the village girls would've had to face her death stares
🤣 🤣 🤣
"Koi sapne me aya tha kya? He winked!
"What were you dreaming? That you were dating with Ruqaiya Ahmed?
One morning they get alone... in this holiday... in their busy lives.. and they're talking of all other people 😭
They are mad. 😆
"You are in bridal costume, I am waiting for you in the grand hall of marriage, you are coming to me, I am staring at you"
"Now for at least one year forget about the marriage."
😭 She's not even blushing... shyea
Let's assume their relation has gone beyond blushing. 😆
"That's a question... How did he go! Jalal too stood beside her. "Apparently it is too easy to go for a lifelong hide-out from a village like Madhubani, but thing is it is not so easy to disappear leaving no trace left behind. He booked ticket on train, but did not catch that. He left the house at midnight, and neither took any bus, nor auto, not even matador, van, lorry- nothing... Did he just apparate or what?
Where are you Surya?
Is this Jalal? He is cute! 😆
"I don't think Surya has the guts to kill someone. Jodha told.
I don't think either. Rule 11 of mystery-writing -
Generally, the first suspects in the case are rarely the perpetrators of the crime
😆
Yep! 🤣
"Really... Jodha came to him and casually rested her head on his arm. "I
Finally... evidence found - there IS blood running in their veins! 😆
🤣 🤣 🤣
"I was so wrong! Here in this lap of nature such a dangerous and nasty business is going on for two decades! And more horrible is, my father was the controller of the whole business!"
I can totally imagine how horrible this feeling must be
😭 Yeah! 😭
Jalal spontaneously stretched his arm around her back and hugged her tightly for her comfort and kissed her forehead...
Hai hai
☺️
"Of course there is. I always heard there is at least one ghost in the abandoned ponds of a village...
😲
Laughing and smiling together, they reached near the pond beside the bamboo forest. The place was awkwardly calm and excluded from the normal village life. There is really a ghostly environment covered in the surrounding... The sound of silence mixed in the gloomy fog of the wintery morning has created an enigmatic aura all around...
Wintery morning, village, foggy pond, forest, romantic - will this do?
Perfect!
"If Surya has taken sanyas under the shadow of those bamboo trees in the forest."
>>😲
😆
"Well I know what you mean by romantic chat... Jodha giggled and slapped on his shoulder with a lovable affection, and stepped one step back..."
>>>☺️
😉
"Oh! I stepped on something. She told while looking under her shoe."
"The broken thing was really a spectacles, the same one which was often seen in Surya's eyes!"
"That was a cell phone. An old model, broken into 8 pieces; a belonging of Surya!
A clear sign of a brawl
"I should have understood before! Jalal punched on a bamboo tree out of rage, and some crows started shouting...
Some hours later, the police pulled up Surya's half-rotten, swollen dead-body from the pond.
😲 Darn! 👏
How silly of me to have not seen it..
😉😃
I LOVED ... absolutely LOVED the shocker - the way you started off with playful banter, lulled your readers into something calming and soft under the guise of romance and dropped us right into the cold chilly pond for a rude shock!
I am so glad that you got this surprise and loved it! Thank you so much Di... 😃
Jalal was unable to forgive himself. He had been searching for Surya from last 3 days, and despite having the full possibility of this event, he never even thought that Surya can die too. Perhaps it was for his biasness due to his personal rivalry with Surya he could not completely nullify the fact that Surya can be an innocent in Bharmal Singh's murder case in spite of having so many logics for this.
It's ok, Jalal.. don't be hard on yourself... 😒I understand...
Nothing solves crimes, like a bit of romance... as was proved with your morning walk...
Hmm.. 😔
you just need a bit more of that!
"Surya was supposed to carry a huge amount of money in Mumbai which he withdrew from the bank, but there is not a penny. Even his moneybag, rings and fountain pen is not there."
Yes I guessed as soon as it said 'brawl'... that THIS was the Surya-Bachu-Bharmal connection
👍🏼
"Cancel for now. Jalal looked at her and tried to smile."
Phew! Ok now what developments could unfold in part 14 🤔 waiting waiting, rubbing palms in anticipation!
Wait wait... 😉
Thank you so much Di!🤗
