FF Going Forward - KMH-PART-I - Page 55

Arjun gives the 25K to return to Mikhael in Billu hand saying he does not require them.

He meets all the constables and police standing in Home Minister-HM room and DIG Kartar.

HM: Arjun, come beta. How are you now? Welcome RPS, how are you?

RPS: Fine thanks

Arjun: Fine uncle, thanks

HM: That accident which actually Mikhael did occured due to the road repair. He lost control and ran over constable Kushwant. Kushwant himself told in his statement. But he should have stopped his car.

Ram tells all details (Mikhael arrest, Arjun saying he did accident, PC saying about DIG grand daughter court case, torture everything)

HM: See beta, all the police are there from the Barton Road station. Just go and recognise whom all tortured you

Arjun goes and sees each ones face and remembers the torture

He comes back and sits in his chair.

HM: Tell me Arjun who tortured you. They have already been suspended, i will ensure they go to jail and they lose their job and all benefits

Arjun: No one

All surprised and look at Arjun

HM: Do not get scared beta

Arjun: Sorry dad, i am not scared uncle

HM: Then

Arjun: I have forgiven them for torturing me. They got emotional about their colleage being so hurt and it was their emotional reaction

All police bend their heads feeling very shamed.

Arjun: Please dad, please

RPS: Fine, do whatever and keeps quiet

HM: RPS do not get angry. You must be proud of being father of such a great son. I am really proud to be his uncle right now.

HM gets up from his seat and walks to opposite direction and pats Arjun on back and says "I am proud of you beta"

HM turns to police: Learn something, just because you have power do not use it blindly on others. You tortured Arjun beta so badly and see him- he forgave you. You all can leave and do not repeat such mistake again. Now leave before i change my decision. DIG wait here

DIG stays back

HM: DIG i am getting too many complaints of you and your family misusing your powers to solve family fued with Singahnia family. I do not want this repeated. Just say sorry from Singhania's and clear this fued now

RPS gets up: I do not want anything to do with Ahluwaliah's HM. I am leaving and waiting in car Arjun. You can come once you finish. Thanks a lot HM. We will speak when we meet at your house this weekend.

HM: Ok RPS, bye. You are a very lucky man to have such a good son. I envy you

RPS looks at Arjun irritated: Bye

HM: DIG Kartar you can also leave

Kartar leaves

HM: I understand beta, he is your wife's grandfather

Arjun hugs him and says Thanks uncle

HM: welcome beta, take care

Arjun starts leaving. HM calls him and Arjun turns back

HM goes and puts hand on his head as if to bless him: I am really proud of you beta. May God give you all happiness in life. If you want any help do not hesitate to call me.

Arjun: Sure uncle. Give my regards to Sahil and Ritu(HM children and his childhood friends)

Arjun again loses his job as he has not gone to work for 2 weeks. His saving was also over in two months for his sickness, rent etc. Arohi fails to understand how important the money is and keeps spending royally like at Singhania's. Arjun tries to tell her indirectly but she does not understand. There is no food at home. Dadaji has not returned and will return only after a month. Arjun is getting desperate searching for a new job. The food supplies were over yesterday only. Arohi had already told him to get all supplies in evening while coming from work. Arjun has not told her he has lost job. Its 10pm Arjun returns without food supplies to house and about to ring bell door. He can hear Raj and Arohi speaking

Raj: Mom, i am hungry. Afternoon also you gave me one chappati and jam, i am very hungry

Arohi: Arrey Raj, i am also hungry. This Arjun is so careless na. Not at all bothered of wife and kids, only daddy, mommy, brother and sister. Let him come i will take his class

Arjun stops from ringing buzzer. No way can he go in now. He had forgotten he was an orphan, he had practice not having food for days not Arohi and Raj. He goes back to the streets and keeps walking thinking how to get food for today somehow. His self respect does not allow him to dial his friends and ask the money- he had tried to ask money from his friend and they had laughed it off saying RPS son wants money-do not joke yaa. He promises tommorow he will get a job somehow and some advance. But tonight he will not go back without food.

He is walking near a Godown and suddenly hears the owner shouting that enough people are not there to carry sacks from Lorry to Godown and to get more people. Arjun has an idea. He goes and speaks to godown owner and says he is ready to do that job. Owner looks at Arjun-decently dressed, looks well qualified. He asks him why he wants to do this as he looks from decent family. Arjun says he requires money urgently and that he can carry those weights not to worry. The owner agrees. Arjun carries 150 bags till 2pm and stops. He says he wants the money for those 150 bags only. Owner says although he gives 2.50 Rs per bag for others as they carry bags entire night since he did only 150 bags he can give only 2Rs and gives 300Rs. Arjun thanks him and takes it and goes to an hotel and packs 9 Parathas and goes back home. Its 3am. He rings bell. Arohi comes and opens in sleepy mood. He gives the food packet and says to arrange for dinner now.

Arohi: This is time to come

Arjun: Sorry, i had overtime

Arohi: Overtime, we are going hungry from afternoon and you have overtime. You could not call

Arjun: Very sorry, i forgot

Arohi: Forgot, your wife and child are hungry and you forgot. You are unfit to be husband or father material. You are unfit to be human you good for nothing person

Raj: Mommy

Arjun: Give him food then you can shout at me

Arohi goes to kitchen and gets plates. Arjun goes to take quick bath and change.

Arjun joins them on dinner. Arohi and Raj are busy eating. Both finish in jiffy.

Arjun still has not started. He is looking at them eating so fast and as if they never had seen food for days. He feels angry at himself for keeping them hungry and promises never to repeat this again.

Arohi and Raj still hungry and staring at Arjun's plate. Arjun removes one partha and puts in Arohi plate and another in Raj. Then he cuts the other Partha half-half and puts in both their plates again.

Arjun: I already had food in office at night. I am not hungry. Why did you put plate for me? I have had food already

Arohi and Raj finish food and look satisfied.

Arjun: Are you both full or want anything else to eat?

Raj: Milk

Arohi: Yeah why you not got milk? And atta for breakfast.

Arjun: I will get early morning

Arohi: Come Raj, do not speak to your dad. He left us and had dinner in office while we were hungry here, ganda aadmi

Both go to bedroom to sleep.

Arjun goes to kitchen and has water. He turns back and sees Raj.

Arjun: What happened Raj?

Raj: water

Arjun gives him water. Raj staring at Arjun and drinking water.

Arjun: What?

Raj: You are hungry? You did not have food right

Arjun: No, who said

Raj: Do not lie to me daddy, once in hostel we did not get dinner and i had water same way like you had-stomach full. Else why you will drink so much water

Arjun kneels down: You and your mom had stomach full na, thats enough for me. I am not hungry really Raj. Lets go and sleep. And do not tell your mom, OK

Raj: OK, I love you very much dad. You are best dad in world and kisses him

Arjun carries him to bedroom and puts him to sleep

Arohi angry and turns away.

Raj: Mom, why are you turning away

Arohi: I do not want to see that mans face

Raj: Why?

Arohi: He kept you and me hungry since afternoon

Arjun: Very sorry Arohi, i will never repeat this mistake again

Arohi: You say that for every mistake. I do not believe you

Raj: Mom even dad has not

Arjun puts his hand over Raj mouth and tell him not to say anything

Arjun: Sorry Arohi, i know i keep disappointing you by my behaviour. I will take care next time on wards. Good Night

Arohi: Bad dreams you monster. This fellow is vampire not monster. One more mistake i will rename you vampire.

Raj: What is vampire dad?

Arohi: Why you are asking that fellow. I will tell. Human who drinks blood is called vampire and that's your dad

Arjun and Raj laugh

Arohi: Yeah yaeh you both father and son are one only i know. My fate is not good. I got struck with your good for nothing father. Look at my friends they all go to clubs, parties, vacation and enjoy life. I am here struggling like a maid. But your father he will risk his life for his father, go to jail and get tortured for brother, burn the world for sister but for wife nothing. When i was his GF my every wish was his command, he used to fulfill all my wishes now as soon as i became his wife he is treating me like filth, servant

Raj: Mommm

Arohi: Shut up you father's son. I am sleeping and puts wollen blanket on her face and acts as if sleeping

Raj hugs Arjun and goes to sleep.

Arjun thinks: Arohi, please have patience, please give me sometime. I will fulfill all your wishes and Raj's, Romit, Rashi's, Mikheal's, dads and dadi's too. I will ensure you do not have to lift a finger or do any work in life, i will enure your life is bed of roses. I am sorry i have not met your expectations currently. Please bear with me. I know you are innocent do not know harsh realities of life more innocent than Raj himself. Please give me some time. Please

Arjun does not get any sleep because of tension of not getting job and also he has severe back pain carrying those heavy sacks.
