Chapter 31 B
Kapoor's POV
I sat near the vent and noticed whatever was going below...
"Zuber sahab... aap soch rahe honge na ki Verma mujhse behtar kaise... aur abhi tak Liza ne Arjun ko meet nahi ki... sochte raho - jawab mil jata toh aapka naam hi Kapoor hota!" I smirked and opened the tab checking their informer's activites...
"Exactly what I needed." I smiled as I looked at the secret network spread out to tab on Sikandar and his men... this was the speciality of Verma...
While I had all the smartness and physical strength... Verma had an immense network and intellect...
The reason I needed Verma to be put up on this was that so - in the most secretive manner every network across India would come alive and start a hunt for Sikandar... and Verma isn't careless enough to die...
By now every system that Sikandar would have operated upon is hacked and all the information might have been transferred to our desk...
Then what need for my l'il drama?
Verma ka asar!
Jokes apart... if Verma started working on my lines while I was active... it's too much of a risk...
The amount of information I have collected - it's a goldmine... but then for that I needed Rawte's help... but... usse khud pata nahi tha ki he's being a helping hand... being his informer in turned helped me... how - suspense right?
Well - let me keep it like that ;)
But am sure... a week's gone by and everything is fine... the danger near Arjun's place... it's obvious... for a week after the ETF has passed away, Arjun's every breathe had been monitored by Sikandar... he knew that we exist... he surely needed an attack to make us come out...
If we were together... Verma would have taken a fast step - erratic and impatient as ever... even with care - but then that's exactly what Sikandar wanted...
The chai-wala aside was Sikandar's aide... needless to say what future he had the minute i found out... virtually every human who was near Rawte was wiped off clean by me... that's my speciality...
But what was more threatening was the gadgets traced in him.. Damn! I could never catch that...
Strangely from Anjali's computer to the fan... even up to the landline available out there were sources to track Rawte...
Thus, there was only one person ever who would do that... and to help Rawte... that person would have to go against me.. so I didn't bother to clarify when I was confronted...
And now every tiny thing that could track Rawte was either hacked or destroyed... and Sikandar didn't even realize that...
No guesses of who that genius might be..
Verma...
I rested my head behind smiling over the perfect execution of my plan... I spared a glance below...
"Sh*t!" I swore looking from above...
"Yeh Rawte! He's going there... mujhe ab kuch karna hai..." I thought...
"Oh God... yeh Karan meri taraf kyun dekh raha hai!" I thought and slid to the corner..
Hearing Karan say kabootar I sighed in relief and walked away...
Then I got a notification on the phone... "WTH..." I swore...
It was an alert system which notified me when the house only had Liza as the remaining occupant... no it was her being alone that bothered me... it was...
Where were the others...
Running home I saw that Verma was gone... forever... I sat down with a heavy heart... but still positive about KV coming back... then I noticed that Verma was not there... and Liza was still in her room...
I walked into the other room... where she was there.. on her table used to be the small Ganpati idol... she would never remove it unless she is going out alone... and doing a risky job...
And the idol was missing...
"Sh*t" I thought and walked out... "Where is she?" without wasting further time I ran out of the house...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arjun ran as the rain fell tirelessly on him... a hope... a slight glimmer of hope... she might be alive.. she has to be... her words resonated in his ears...
"Aur main hamesha safe rahoongi! Kyunki jab mujhe chot pohochti hai toh tumhe bhi kuch na kuch hota hai, it's vice versa... apne aap ko theek rakho main bhi theek rahoongi" her voice chimed in his ears...
He finally got the meaning... Sakshi never stepped back from her words... he literally ran up to the building... panting heavily... the tears of happiness falling from his eyes...
He had lost Roshni... then Sakshi... but the joy of her being alive... it was too good to be true.. running his hands through his hair and trying to control the tears threatening to spill out...
There were many questions running in his logical mind... how... when... what... why... but none of them mattered...
Getting the file out was a kid's job for Arjun...
He ran back to the garage... the file remaining safe near his chest...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Someone's pov...
I saw him run, smile and cry like a maniac as he approached the closed ETF building...
He needed a file... I knew which one... I knew him too well... and I knew that he would get it easily... it was meant to be in that manner..
My feet weighed tons as I tried to walk towards my destination...
I didn't mean to give him this pain... Why did these emotions come up?
I slowly trudged through the path... this was the most difficult walk ever...
(guys - pls do play the song before - it makes a diff... Awari from Ek villain... youtube link : Awari)
The mud slushed over my legs as I slowly walked towards the garage... the rain pouring down on me... I myself couldn't understand whether the rain fell on my face or was it my tears...
I knew what was coming up... I had to brace myself...
Why did life itself have to be so ironic... I guess we never really answer the cliched questions which start with why and has the word life in it...
As I walked through the narrow mud lane... the crowd walking in the opposite direction... all wet... my clothes sticking to me like a second skin... I chose to be oblivious to the lecherous looks passed at my side... oblivious to the touches on my body in the excuse of being in a crowd... I knew.. just uttering a name... and they would meet their ancestors...
Duniya chhoona chaahe mujhko yun
Jaisay unki saari ki saari main
Duniya dekhe roop mera
Koi na jaane bechari main
But I was used to this... for people I was beautiful... gorgeous... breathtaking... but barely did anyone recognize the broken person inside...
After a great difficulty I had composed myself... but this mission - no it was no longer a mission, it had become a part of my life... it broke me to bits... I never came to stay... I had knowingly dug my own grave... and even his...
Haaye tooti saari ki saari main
Tere ishq mein huyi awari main
Haaye tooti saari ki saari main
Tere ishq mein huyi awari main
He yearned for someone to look through him... and I being the master of deception... saw through him the minute I set my eyes on him... people told that we co-existed in the mannerism of a moth to a flame...
Koyi shaam bulaaye, koyi daam lagaye
Main bhi oopar se has-ti par andar se haaye
But the thing was that... it was not he who was the flame... it was I...
Kyun dard chupaaye baithi hai
Kyun tu mujhse kehti hai
Main toh khud hi bikhra huya
I couldn't hold my tears any longer... I collapsed on the mud lane on anticipating his reaction on knowing what the contents of the file held... I howled out loud... holding my head in my hands... oh.. why did life have to be so ironic? I weeped bitterly...
Haaye andar andar se toota main
Tere ishq mein khud hi se rootha main
Haaye andar andar se toota main
Tere ishq mein khud hi se rootha main
Jab hum chahte the toh woh paas nahi the... ab jab woh chahte hai... toh hum hi nahi rahe...
******************************************************
I slowly crawled up near the vent of the garage and saw him come in... shuffling his wet hair... he opened the file...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arjun shuffled his hair and opened the file..
The hope glimmered in his eyes as he opened the final evidence report...
His eyes travelled straightaway to the last evidences found of victims...
Human pieces found.
Dried blood and flesh of Chandrakant Patil.
He sighed remembering Chotu and read ahead...
Dried blood and slight flesh of
"Nahi" he shook his head... he rubbed his eyes.. "Nahi... main kuch ghalat par raha hoon..." he wiped the tears forming with the back of his hand...
He read again as a lump formed in his throat...
Dried blood and slight flesh of
Sakshi Anand.
and the last remaining part of hope died away... his face drained all color... he felt he had been pierced again...
"NO..." he screamed.. "tum jaa nahi sakti..." he threw the file away... "tumne kaha na... ki main jab tak theek hoon tum bhi theek ho... Sakshi dekho main theek hoon" his mind screamed... and he overturned the table in anger...
Hot sob-less tears fell as his knees gave away and he fell on the floor with a thud...
He recalled every damn incident that occurred after her death... every bl**dy incident showed that she was alive... he touched his forehead frantically... he closed his eyes and tried to feel the presence of that soft body against his hard one... it was she...
He had tried out every way... but now it slowly sunk into him that she was no more... but it's not possible... his logical mind accepted that she had passed away... but his heart refused... "She has gone Arjun... Roshni ke paas..." his mind ordered...
"Nahi woh mujhe kahe bina nahi jayegi... she is here... I know" he whispered frantically... and picked up the glass... cutting chai - a reminder of her...
Main jee bhar ke rolun, teri baahon mein solun
Aa phir se mujhe mil, main tujh-se yeh bolun
Unable to take the turmoil through him he shattered the glass in his hand.. letting the sharp shards pierce through his skin... blood oozed out...
Tu anmol thi, pal pal bolti thi
"DEKH RAHI HO TUM?" he shouted showing his blooded hand...
He yearned to hold her in his arms... and to drift back to sleep... her tantalizing essence... it haunted him.. he was tired.. exhausted... he just needed her...
Aisi chup tu laga ke gayi, saari khushiyan khaa ke gayi
Arjun Rawte had fallen again...
But this time he had irrevocably fallen for her...
His Sakshi...
"I accept.. main haar gaya... just... just waapas aa jao, please" he said in an almost painful tone... and cried bitterly...
"Please... aa jao... kyunki.." he literally begged...
"I love you Sakshi... I love you..." he cried out...
Haaye andar andar se toota main
Tere ishq mein khud hi se rootha main
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I gasped and closed my eyes letting the raindrops mix with the tears... I couldn't believe... lord save me... I looked up at the God present there and bit my lips to stop myself from howling...
Haaye teri hoon saari ki saari main .. ho .. oo ..
Par tere liye baazari main
I had to go... to him... I tried to walk in... but my energy deserted me..
As I pushed in every ounce of what was remaining I felt a pair of strong arms engulf me... and drag me away from the garage... being an outpour no one stops... anyways our country is pretty famous to turn deaf ears to wails...
"NO..." I try to scream but my mouth is covered...
"Please.. yeh mat karro..." that person says...
I kick the person hard and run... I wince in pain as my wound reopens... but I hobble towards the garage...
The person catches my arm and I literally turn hysteric
"Kapoor... leave me... chod.. he needs me" I wail and try to kick further... my frantic actions continue...
Until I receive a slap...
"Shut up! If he has to be alive to ab ke liye dur rehna padega... aur moreover teri jaan ko bhi khatra hai!" Kapoor barks at me...
"I don't care Kapoor!" I shout back...
" If you love him you have to!" Kapoor shouts and drags me away from the place...
"Arjun..." I mumble softly and shrug of Kapoor's hold and walk towards another direction... all alone..
"SAKSHI!"
Kapoor screams at her... seeing her walk in another path... but she doesn't seem to listen... when did she ever?
"I love you Sakshi... I love you..."
The words ring in my ears... and I fall down on the road... crying out of happiness and helplessness... I let the darkness cradle me to sleep... and I guess I see a man running towards me...
My nerve running through my temples burst open with the impact of my head hitting the road...
Blood gushes around my head... people rush around me... to watch... not to help...
I smile faintly at the ability to think of the satirical truth as a mind numbing pain rushes through my spine... I feel difficulty in breathing through my nose... I part my lips a little to breathe...
My smile goes wider as I taste my blood...
He had injured himself as well... how could I stay safe?
A man comes running towards me... dispersing the crowd away...
And I slip into oblivion...
But not before noticing what he wore...
I tasted something salty...
I had started to cry...
He... was wearing a black hoodie...
