Part 23(B): ChaVi In Yaksh Mahal Gurukul, Shiv Dutt Makes A Deal With Devika
ChaVi were still in the library talking with each other.
"I had no female friends but 2 male friends, said CK.
"One of them loved you, said V.
"Yes, said CK.
They got another memory.
-----Flashback-----
It was 2 months since V and Marich entered Gurukul. As time passed by, Harsh and Chandrika fell in love with each other. One day, Harsh told his feelings to Chandrika in the library.
"What you wanted to say that you called me in this empty library? asked Chandrika.
"I had reasons to become your friend, replied Harsh.
"I know that is to know about tilism, said Chandrika.
"There is another reason, said Harsh.
"What else could be the reason? asked Chandrika.
"That reason is that I have been attracted to you since the time I saw you. In all these weeks, I don't know when I have fallen for you. So I want to say that I love you, Chandrika, said Harsh.
Chandrika was stunned for a moment.
"Do you even know what you are saying, Harsh? asked Chandrika.
"I said what was in my heart. Its up to you to accept it, replied Harsh.
"I love you too, Harsh. I don't know when I fell in love with you, said Chandrika.
"Really? asked Harsh.
"Yes, replied Chandrika, "If you had not came in my life then I don't know if I would fell in love with someone or not after pitaji left. You taught me to fall in love.
Harsh smiled, "Lets go from here before anyone comes.
"Yes, smiled back Chandrika.
-----Flashback Ends-----
"In last birth, I was the one who proposed you 1st, teased V as they came to the present.
"So you got something to tell me due to your previous birth proposal, smiled CK.
"Now when you will say that you proposed me 1st then I can being this out, smiled back V.
Scene shifts to Vijaygarh. Tej and Chapla were in Tej's room.
"I am worried for yuvraj and rajkumari. They had gone alone, said Tej.
"I am also worried for them. Hope they are safe, said Chapla.
"Don't know till when they will stay, Tej.
"No one else knows about Marich plan here except us, said Chapla.
"Should we tell others? asked Tej.
"Not now, replied Chapla, "They will get worried.
Tej agreed with her.
In Yaksh Mahal, ChaVi were talking in the library till they had lunch and took rest in separate rooms. The acharya made sure that no one outside the gurukul knows that they are here so that the news about them here does not reach Marich who may come here to hurt them.
Scene shifts to Tej coming in Chapla's room.
"Why you came here? asked Chapla.
"I was getting bored so thought of flirting with you, joked Tej.
"Flirt karne ke liye main hi mili kya? asked Chapla.
"Thik hai to baahar jaakar doosri ladkyon ke saath flirt karta hu, replied Tej and turned to go.
"Koi jarurat nahi. Say what you came for, said Chapla while Tej smiled inwardly at her jealousy.
"I came to say that we should go and see whats happening in Chunargarh, said Tej.
"What we will say others? asked Chapla.
"We will leave without saying anything and return soon, replied Tej.
"Okay, lets go, said Chapla.
Scene shifts to ChaVi sitting in the gurukul garden in the evening. They were enjoying the fresh air and cool breeze in the garden. They recalled one more memory.
-----Flashback-----
It was a month after the gurukul was over. One day, Chandrika comes to meet Harsh at his palace to surprise him. His parents tell him that Harsh is in his room since he came back from tilsim journey and is hardly talking with them. Chandrika goes to his room.
"Harsh, called Chandrika to him who was looking outside the window.
"Chanda, you here? he asked as he turned around to face her.
"I thought to surprise you so I came here, replied Chadrika, "You look upset.
Harsh did not say anything.
"Are you upset because I did not came with both of you na? asked Chandrika, "I told you earlier many times that my family won't allow to go for a dangerous journey. Okay fine Harsh, agli baar tum jaha jaoge main bhi tumhaare saath aaungi. Main maa aur bhaiyya ki ek nahi sunungi.
"Chanda, I am not upset with you, replied Harsh.
"Then whats bothering you? asked Chandrika.
"Marich is not a good man. He betrayed me after the journey. He used both of us for his benefits. After completing the journey, only I got those powers because I came to know through the magical creatures there that Marich can't get those powers because he is evil and he wanted to use those powers for wrong things. He tried to kill me but I defeated him and escaped. Its good that you did not came with us otherwise he would have tried to hurt you also. I can't believe Marich was using me all these years and then using you too.
Chandrika was shocked to hear that.
"Are you saying the truth? asked Chandrika shockingly, "Marich was your friend much before I came in your life. I hope you don't have some misunderstanding, Harsh.
"I don't have any misunderstanding, Chanda, replied Harsh, "Marich has really betrayed us.
"Chinta mat karo, Harsh. Main tumhaare saath hu na, said Chandrika, "Aur humesha rahungi.
Harsh hugged Chandrika and said, "Agar tum mere saath ho, Chanda to mujhe koi chinta nahi.
Chadrika and Harsh smiled as they hugged each other.
-----Flashback Ends-----
"So something had happened after that tilism journey where Marich betrayed me, said V.
"We again recalled the same thing. Something big would have happened as you were too upset after coming back from the tilism journey with Marich., said CK.
Scene shifts to Tej and Chapla entering Chunargarh palace as birds. They reached Marich's room and hid behind a pillar. Marich was talking with Pandit Jagannath.
"Pandit Jagannath, I am not getting any news of Virendra and Chandrakanta, said Marich.
"Maharaj, I tried to see them via my magic but as I said you can get to see the only ones who are your blood. And if you leave Chunargarh then your powers will decrease, said PJ.
"I want them soon, said Marich.
"Maharaj, I think someone else is helping them. The soldiers who we sent to capture Virendra and Chandrakanta said that some unknown force stopped them, said PJ.
"Who could it be? asked Marich.
"It can be some of their aiyyars or some yaksh, replied PJ.
"Yaksh? asked Marich shockingly.
"Yes, it can be, replied PJ.
"Now they are doubting of yaksh involvement, whispered Tej.
"They should not come to know soon about it, whispered Chapla.
Tej and Chapla left from there for Vijaygarh.
ChaVi spends a lot of time in the gurukul. The acharya tells them several things about Harshvardhan, Chandrika and Marich which they listen carefully.
At night, Devika reached the magic show with her gang. Unknown to her SD and Badri were also there who were watching them. Devika and her gang who were dressed as the servants working for the magic show stealthily goes backstage and got mixed with the servants. SD and Badri followed them backstage to see what they are doing. When the magic show was over, Devika along with her gang took all the collection money and replaced the bags with stones and mud before coming out and mixing with the crown again. SD and Badri were astonished to see how they did their job. Devika and her gang spread themselves in the crowd. SD approached Devika in the crowd and then took her to a corner. He then lifts the ghunghat that was covering her face. Devika is shocked to see SD. She tries to free her hand but he tightened his hold.
"Ye kya badtameezi hai? asked Devika annoyingly.
"Mujhe tumhaari madad chaahiye, replied SD.
"What help? asked Devika.
"I want to know about princess Kalavati. I am her childhood friend Shiv Dutt, replied SD.
"So you are Shiv Dutt. Tere baare me bahot taareefein suni hai. Why you remembered her only after her death? asked Devika, "Do you need to know the way of a brothel?
SD was shocked.
"I have left all the wrong things, replied SD.
"Nice joke, laughed Devika.
"I am not joking, said SD.
"Whatever, said Devika and asked again, "Why you remembered her only after her death?
"I have done many mistakes in life. Due to which I forgot her from 8 years. She has died because of me. The mistakes I have done is responsible for her death, replied SD.
"Why do you think you are responsible for her death? asked Devika.
"I have done lots of mistakes and hurt many people. Due to my wrong way, I forgot my childhood friend Kalavati. If I had not gone on the wrong way and forgot Kalavati then we would have remained friends and I could have saved her from dying, replied SD.
Devika keeps looking at him carefully.
"Why you want to know about her after her death? asked Devika.
"Because I have doubt regarding her death like how only she and her parents are dead and how come no one knows how Kalavati looked as an adult, replied SD.
"There are many people who have doubts which are still not cleared, said Kalavati.
"I want you to tell me about Kalavati as much as you know, said SD.
"What I will get in return? asked Devika.
"I will give you lots of money, replied SD.
"Okay done, said Devika, "If you want to know about Kalavati then you and your friend have to live in my house because there are danger to people related to Kalavati.
"What if you and your do something to us? asked SD.
"You both are not weak so you can handle us if we do anything wrong, replied Devika.
"True, said SD and asked, "From when we can stay in your house?
"From tonight itself. I and Devyani will take you both. And yes, don't tell your identities to anyone. We don't want you both to fall in danger, replied Devika.
"Okay, said SD.
SD leaves from there while Devika keeps watching him till he is out of sight.
Scene shifts to ChaVi talking with acharya.
"Is there any way to kill Marich? asked V.
"Its ret-samay yantra(sand clock) which will end the effects of the amrit taken by him and kill him but its not possible to get it as its with Marich only, replied acharya.
"Yes we heard about it, said CK.
"If I know about some other way then I will let you know, said acharya.
"Yes, said V.
Scene shifts to Devika and Devyani bringing SD and Badri to their house which was neither big nor small. SD and Badri 1st went to their hotel rooms and brought their things before coming with them. Devika knocked the door and an elderly woman opened the door.
"Maa, said Devika as she entered with Devyani, SD and Badri.
The was an elderly man in the hall.
"Maa, pitaji, these are our new friends Ankit and Punit. They are new in this city. From now, they will work with us. They are very talented, said Devika with a smile.
SD and Badri controlled their smiles as Devika had already told them the plan.
"Nice to meet you both, beta, said the elderly woman with a smile.
SD and Badri touched the feet of Devika's parents.
"Tum dono ko kisi aur se bhi milaana hai, said Devika.
"Ab aur bhi koi hai? asked SD.
"Haan, replied Devika and called loudly, "Anuj, come outside.
A cute little boy of 6 year old came out.
"Didi, said the boy with a smile.
"He is our brother, Anuj, smiled Devika, "Anuj, they are our new friends Ankit and Punit.
Anuj smiled and shook hands with SD and Badri.
"They will live with us for some days, said Devyani.
"Now I will have 2 men with me otherwise I only have you 2 women, said Anuj.
"Bahot bolne laga hai tu, said Devika and ruffled his hairs.
"Don't spoil my hairstyle, didi, whined Anuj to which Devika just smiled.
SD smiled as Anuj reminded him of himself as a kid.
"Devika, show them their rooms, said her father.
"Yes, said Devika.
Devika showed them their room which they have to share.
"This is the biggest room of this house. Hope its fine for you both, said Devika.
"Yes, its fine for us, said SD.
Badri leaves the room.
"Do you know how Kalavati died? asked SD.
"Kalavati was murdered, replied Devika.
"Who could have murdered her? asked SD.
"Obviously her enemies, replied Devika.
"I need to find more about this, said SD.
"No, don't do that. You could be in danger. I don't want you to get hurt in anyway, said Devika.
"I have to know the entire thing so I will find about it whether you help me or not, said SD.
Devika gets worried as he says that.
"What happened? asked SD seeing her lost.
"Nothing, replied Devika.
Devika leaves the room.
"What has happened to her? said SD confusingly.
SD lies down on the bed to rest.
