Chapter-35
In the midst of night, Arjun and Sakshi sleep broke hearing to painful murmurs, immediately wokeup and saw Shree was having a nightmare, "bhaiya!"
"Arjun ..yeh?"
"Kuch bura swapn dekha hoga!" Arjun whispered slowly, keeping hand on Shree head ruffling his curls, comforted him"Shh...Chote, mei tumhare paas huh bacha....!" Shree slowly relaxed with Arjun's words, caught his hand and again slept peacefully. Placing a kiss on his forehead, Arjun leaned back onto headrest closing his eyes in pain. Sakshi understanding him, comforted him, "Arjun!"
"Sahi kehrahi thi tum, yeh bahut dara hua hain, neendh mei bhi mere baare mei sochraha hai!" Arjun sighed sadly.
"Arjun sambhaliye...!" Sakshi consoled him, "Chalo so jate hain... abhi bhi bahut time hai subah hone mei!" Nodding at her he again laid, while sakshi laid beside him.
In the morning, "Sakshi, Aditya aur Neha dono yaha arrahe hai... aap undono se baat kijiye, mei aur Rajveer, Coelho ke paas jaa rahe... unse kuch kaam hain!" Suryakant informed her who was in the hall as still no one came down.
"Theek hain papa.. mei dekhti huh, Arjun aur bhai haina waise bhi...woh dono help karenge!" Sakshi replied who smiled going from there.
Later all joined at breakfast table, upon Arjun's enquiry she informed him about their father who left few moments back.
"Acha..choti tu itni subah kaise uthi?" Sam teased her.
"Matlab kya hai, mei subah nahi uththi kya?" Sakshi twisted her lips giving a glare.
"Nahi nahi ..tumtoh bahut jaldi uthi hoh na..theek dus baje, woh itna subah hai ki log uththe bhi nahi uss time mei, haa mei toh bhul hih gaya iss ghar mei ek aur bhi hain joh itna subah uthe!" Sameer mocked and immediately dodged when she threw the spoon on him.
"Oye kya karrahi? Lag jati toh?" Sameer glared at her.
"Toh apna muh kyu bandh nahi rakthe aap, jabdekho mere aur shree ke peeche padthe, hum kitne der bhi soye usse apka kya jaa rahe!"
"Agar phirse kuch kaha na..." She waved spoon infront of him,
"Haa.. kahunga...kya karegi, dad se complaint karoge toh karo...woh hai hih nahi ghar mei!"
"Unhe kyu kahungi...yeh plate haina usse vaar karungi samje aap?" Sakshi glared indicating the plate.
"ETF cheif ko damkane ke jurm mei andar karsaktha huh mei tujhe!" Sam retorted not at all backing down, their mothers shook as it is their daily drama, while team looked at Sameer with mouth wide open as they didn't anticipate to see this side Sam who even being elder fights with these both regularly.
"Acha...toh mere pati bhi kuch kam nahi, ETF Second in command hain...mujhe tease karne ke charges pe apko bhi ander karsakthe..."
"Arjun tum mujhe ander karega, tumhara Boss ko!" Sam glared at him.
"Haa.. karenghe na Arjun aap?" Sakshi gave her cute puppy eyes blinking at him.
"Mujhe beech mei mat lao.... Tumdono ko ladna hai lado...lekin mujhe mat ghaseet hoh, kyunki last mei dono bhai behan ek hokhe mujhe hih bewakoof banate!" Arjun replied not interested to interfere.
Both pouted giving looks at him, "abh aap dono chup chap nashta kijiye, itne bade hogai lekin abhi bhi bachpana nahi gai aapka! Aur Kabir,Shree kaha hain abhitak uthe nahi kya!"
"Mei yaha huh Badimaa!" Kabir replied closing his call and took her blessings along with Gayu.
"Kabir, aap subah subah tayar hogai...kahi jaa rahe kya?" Gayu asked him.
"Haa choti maa, hospital jana hai mujhe, aaj ek surgery aur meeting bhi hain. Athe athe shyaam hoga!" Kabir replied taking place beside Sakshi, "aur tum dono ka subah hih chalu hogai kya?" He knocked on her head when she giggled at him.
"Arjun mujhe tumse baat karna hai!" Sameer told him.
",Kya baat karna hai?" Arjun raised his eyebrow at him.
"Batata huh...pehle khalo!" They all started their breakfast when Shree came down but instead of going towards table he sat on the sofa leaning back.
"Shree...yaha avo aur nashta karo!" Sameer yelled from his place.
"Nahi....aaplog khalo mera mann nahi....., mom please mere liye black coffee banalijiye na!" He replied tiredly which they all sensed immediately, as he won't drink black coffee unless he is tired.
"Chote!" Sameer got up but Arjun stopped him, "rehne dhe todhider baad khalege... Shayad sar dard horaha.... raat bhar theek se soya nahi!" And explained about the nightmares.
They all nodded silently, when Kabir quickly finshed his breakfast and checked Arjun injuries, "Chalo gaav bahut jald heal horaha hai! Mei chalta huh..agar kuch jarurat pade toh call karna, nurse toh rehegi...phir bhi theek hai!" He instructed moving towards the exit.
Shree looking at him, "aap kaha jarahe jiju?"
"Hospital!"
"Acha hain, dinbhar mujhe shaanthi milega!" he mumbled to himself.
"Kuch kaha tum?" Kabir turned looking at him. "Nahi..kuch nahi, aap jayiye bahut late horaha haina!" Shree said,
"Pagal..." Shaking his head, Kabir left the house.
Sameer going to Shree, handed him his coffee"thnx bhai!", ruffling his hair, "kya hua chote?"
"Kuch nahi....!" he shook his head.
The people from office visited, as sakshi immersed herself into the work, while others relaxed.
Liza who was exploring the terrace didnot see shree was coming from otherside, both collided with eachother, before she could fall he held her waist tightly gazing at her. His expression softened seeing her closed eyes, in trance removed her hairflick which was covering her face.
Liza who was waiting for the impact opened her eyes and got lost in him. Both were lost, Liza staring at him, "Shree!" Which broke his trance. He made her stand and turned around to go, but stopped when she called him, "Shree meri baat sunho!"
"Mei kuch sunhe ki mood mei nahi huh..behtar hoga ki tum apne kaam se kaam rakho toh!" Shree replied, but Liza trying to talk to him, "ek baar meri baat toh sunho Shree, please!" She pleaded with guilt but the anger on her is more than other two.
"I am sorry, meine bahut galat socha sakshi ke baare mei, par mei kya kartha sakshi ke saath tumhara lagaov dekhe insecure hogai...bas woh sab mere muh se nikhal gai!" She apologized but it only increased his anger, turning around he pulled her with force caging between him and wall, "ek sorry aur sab maaf karu mei...sab bhuljao ki tumne uss rishte par ungli uthai,joh mere liye bahut kaas hai... tumhare karan meri bhabhi ki dil dukha, pata bhi hain woh mereliye kya hain, ek dost, ek behan aur sabse badi baat ek maa..." Shree yelled on her furiously slamming his palm on the wall angrily shocking her.
"Khan kholke sunno Liza, dubara yeh galti mat karna, aur mujhse dur hih raho...mej tumhe kabhi pyaar nahi karne wala kyunki mera pyaar usidin margai jissdin tumhne mere bhabhi ki daman par dhaag lagai, mujhe pata hai sakshi ne tujhe maaf kiya lekin mei nahi ..aur yaad rakhna ki mera parivaar tujhe kabhi accept nahi karegi, yeh pata hone ke baad eksaal pehle kya hua!" He glared pointing at her.
But Liza was only looking at him worriedly, "Shree...khoon!" Tried to catch his hand, as when he slammed his palm, the wound started bleeding which soaked his bandage.
"Chuna mat mujhe!" Shree gritted out angrily and left from there. "Shree meri baat sunho, please mujhe first aid karne dho..bahut khoon behraha hai!" She ran back of him.
But Shree ignored not at all listening to her. Here others were in hall, as Sakshi was talking with the office members who came with required files, Arjun and Sam helping her.
They all stopped their works hearing to Liza, Ayesha looking at her," Liza kya hua?"
Looking at them, "woh Shree.." She fumbled not knowing what to say, but Arjun along with others immediately stood up, turning around, "Shree ko kya hua?" they followed her gaze and saw him going towards his room, but what shocked them is the blood dripping from his hand.
"SHREE!" they all shouted going towards him.
Arjun stopping him took his hand, "Chote..yeh khoon!!" he asked with worry.
"Bhaiya kuch nahi..chodiye..mujhe abhi kisise baat karne ke mood nahi!" Shree replied adamantly.
"Bolna toh tujhe padega..lekin usse pehle yeh saaf karthe hain.." Sameer glared at him, "Nurse!!" Who immediately came on his call.
Arjun made him sit and started removing his bandage slowly, "Chote..kya karthe rehte hoh!"
Taking cotton he started cleaning the blood, with worry but what worried them most is Shree anger who is not even looking at them. He wrapped new bandage gently. "Chote...yeh sab kya hai?" Sameer fired on him, but he remained silent, "kuch nahi...please mujhe jane dijiye mujhe kisise baat nahi karna!" and got up but Arjun made him sit, "theek hain mat batana hai to mat batao!"
"Arjun!" Sam frowned at him,
"Rehne dhe sam, baad mei puchte haina!" He replied then looking at shree he cupped his face, "apko dard horaha?"
Shree nodded in no, "I am sorry Bhaiya! Woh gusse mei, apne haath ko diwaar se phatak diya!"
Arjun closed his eyes taking a deep breath not to say anything but Sam was not the one to keep quiet, yelled, "tera dimag toh theek haina!"
"Bhai..please chup hojayiye!" Sakshi interferred as he is very angry but Sam just gave a glare, "beechmei mat ana tum aur tu bhi Arjun!"
Pointing his finger at shree, "Aur tum...bata dimag toh theek se kaam kar rahe haina, yeh kya pagalpan ki bhoot chada hai tum par, aye din kuch na kuch karrahe hoh, jisse tere tabeeth mei sudhar ana tha woh toh ayega nahi balki aur bhigad jayegi...kaun zimedar honghe iss sab keliye!"
"Aisa kounsa aafat aya ki tujhe phirse apne aap ko chot paunchana pada...dekh nahi rahe abhi toh sab normal horaha lekin tujhe uski kya padi, tujhe toh bas apne manmani karna hain. Dekh Arjun ko, aise halath mei usse aram ki sakth jarurat hain lekin woh bina apne baare mei soche har wakht tere liye pareshan ho raha hai...ki kahi kuch na hojaye, aur tu humsabko pareshann ke alawa kuch nahi deraha....abh chup kyu hoh, Batadho kyu kiya yeh tumne!" He growled angrily while others kept quiet seeing his anger.
Shree silently looked down, murmured "sorry bhai!"
"Hell with the Sorry Shreekanth! I need answer to my question! Bataa kyu kiya yeh sab?" Sam retorted angrily, but he remained silent "theek hai mat batao.....joh aye woh karo...lekin mujhse baat karne ki koshish bhi mat karna!" and left from there in anger.
Sakshi signalled others to move who went from there, Arjun gazing at Shree lifted his head and saw tears rolling down his eyes, wiped them, he nodded in no, "Bas bacha...please chup hojayiye!" and pulled him into tight hug.
"Woh mujhse bahut gussa hai bhaiya!" Shree mumbled sadly.
Caressing his back, "pehle...rona bandh karo...sam se mei baat karunga na, woh apne chote se jyada der gussa nahi rehega!" Cupping his face, "mei baat kartha huh na sam se, tu please upset mat hoh. .teri tabeeth karab hojayegi..."
"Aap gussa nahi hai mujhse?" Shree questioned him.
Nodding in no, "nahi..abh toh rona bandkaro!" Arjun replied placing a kiss on his forehead. Looking at sakshi, "Jaan...isse kuch khiladena, mei sam se baat karke atha huh!" and tried to get up but Shree stopped him catching his hand, "bhaiya please yaha rahiyena!" shaking his head, "please!"
Arjun sighed taking his place again, Shree leaned on his shoulder, while Sakshi brought breakfast to him. Both made him eat slowly.
Otherside Sam was very frustated, the team looked at him in worry, "Sir..bahut gusse mei hai!" Chotu said slowly.
"Haa.. Shree ke halath unhe bahut disturb karaha hai!" Ayesha informed but looking at Liza she enquired, "kya hua usse?"
She explained everything to them slowly, "woh kuch sunhe keliye tyaar hih nahi...aur gusse mei phirse apne aap ko chot paunchaya! Sab meri karan hih hua, na mei usse baat karne ki koshish karthi na yeh sab hota!" She replied in guilt.
"Nahi.. Liza aisa mat socho, Sameer ne bataya na Shree bahut hih ziddhi hain...dheere dheere manjayega..dil chota mat karo.." Ayesha consoled her.
"Par Rathod sir Shree se bahut gussa hai!" Liza frowned.
" Woh toh hain, lekin itna kehsaktha huh ki donobhai mei sula bahut jald hoga aur yeh bhi ki Sameer gussa nahi pareshan hain Shree ko lekar...tumsab jao mei usse baat karthi huh!" Ayesha sent others from there and slowly entered into his room.
This was the first time she entered into his room, seeing it which was painted in royal blue and white. Same as otherrooms, one side of wall is covered with various photographs, giving a look at the room she silently strode towards Sameer who was sitting on the bed, sat beside keeping hand on his shoulder, "Sameer!"
Keeping the photoframe aside, "Ayesha tum?"
"Haa....aap theek toh hai?" She asked him softly.
"Hmm....mei theek huh Ayesha,"
"Par mujhe aisa nahi lagta, aap shree ko lekar pareshann haina!" When he nodded, "Aap bilkul chinta mat kijiye woh theek hoga ....uske paas inta pyaar dene wale parivaar joh hain,"
"Phir bhi yeh ladka kuch samajta nahi, kyu nahi samajtha ki agar chot usse lagegi takleef humsabko hoti hai. Mujhe uski bahut chinta horaha joh bhi kuch dinse horaha uske dimmag par bahut asar kiya.....!" Sam mumbled dejectdly.
"Sameer please sambhaliye, aap hih ne kaha ki Shree ke Arjun sir se kya lagav hai, abh aap hih kahiye ki joh insaan apne pitasaman bhai ko apne hih ankhon ke samne goli lagte dekhte woh bhi usko bachate...kya beethaga hoga uss par...he is not in correct state of mind, Sameer...gusse ke bajaye aap usse pyaar se bhi samja sakthe...." Ayesha confronted him.
"Shayad issliye Arjun sir jiss Shree ko belt se marne ki damki dhi wahi aaj Shree ki har ek galti ko pyaar se samja rahe!" Ayesha informed him.
"Arjun kabhi shree par belt nahi uthata Ayesha, usko ek tapad marne keliye bhi dus baar sochta hai Arjun!" Sam chuckled lightly.
"Phir uss din?"
"Haa woh belt nikala toh tha...lekin bas Shree ko darane, dekha nahi bina kuch soche samje uski ek assu dekhkar woh kaise usko sambhalne mei lagaya!" Ayesha nodded with smile remembering.
"Meine toh sab kuch bataya, lekin woh pyaar, apnapan tumhe dekhne par bhi samaj ayega kyu Arjun ki dil sakshi hai toh Shree uske dhadkhan.yeh teenon kehne mei alag hai lekin hai ek jaan, inmese agar ek ko kuch bhi hua toh baki dho bhikar jayega..."
"Aur aap Sameer?"
"Mei...Ayesha, mei toh jeete jee marjavunga!" He stopped when she closed his mouth, "aap aisa mat boliye...!" Nodding her head in no.
He sighed removing her hand, caressed her face, "Hmm..par yeh sach hain...." Both stared at eachother, Ayesha slowly leaned, keeping her head on him, "Sameer, mei bahut lucky huh ki mujhe ek aisa parivaar milne wala hai jisko mei sapne bhi nahi dekhi!"
Stroking her hair, "tum iss parivaar ki hissa tabhi bangai jab Sakshi se tumhe Ganesh pooja mei bhulai!"
"Matlab?"
"Jante bhi hoh humhare ghar ke pooja ya party mei, keval woh log athe jinhe sari sachai pata hoh..yani keval humhara family...par pehli baar sakshi ne team ko yaha bhulaya..jabki woh yeh janti ki arthi humsab saath karthe..."
"Phir woh humhe bhulai kyu?"
"Kyunki badi maa, aur mom mere shaadi karna chahte, aur Sakshi ne undono ke sab batai ki mei tumse pyaar kartha huh, bas woh log tumse milna chahte." Sameer replied gently.
Removing her head from him, "issliye aapne mujhe woh saree diya!"to which he nodded with a smile. She sighed shaking her head as she got so confused why they were focused on her during the pooja.
"Apko pata hain mujhe kitna ajeeb lagraha tha, jab apke mom aur badimaa mujhse sawal karrahe tey!" Ayesha huffed at him to which he chuckled slightly.
"Mujhe bhi nahi pata, yeh sab Sakshi ki khurafati hain, yeh mujhe Arjun ne bataya baad mei!Aur tum gaur dethe toh tumhe pata chalta hih humdono ki dress colours aur baki parivaar se milte tey, joh sakshi khud pasand kiya sabkeliye!" Sameer replied which shocked her.
She was over whelmed with the thought that sakshi did so much to her and remembering her words, behaviour her face fell...observing it, he gently caught her chin titling her head, "Kya hua Ayesha!"
"Sakshi mereliye kitna kuch kiya aur meine ulta ussi ko galat samji!" She mumbled slowly with guilt.
"Yeh sab baate chodo Ayesha, woh tumse naraz nahi aur mei bhi nahi.... Bahut jald shree bhi maanjayega...ek baat puchu?" He asked which brought a frown on her face but nodded nonetheless.
"Kya tum shaadi karne keliye tyaar hoh?" Sameer questioned her directly which shocked and suprised her. "Batao Ayesha!"
Looking at him with suprise she nodded, "Haa..Sameer mei tyaar huh aapse shaadi karnekeliye!" with a shy smile.
He immediately hugged her, "Thank you.....Ayesha, I love you!"
Holding him, "love you Sameer!" She whispered in his chest happily.
Cupping her face, "Tumhe pata nahi lekin mei tumse bahut pehle puchne wala, par yeh sab hogai...and sorry ha..mei koi arrangement nahi kiya..tumhe special feel karane!" Sameer whispered with sadness at last.
Placing her hand on to of his, "Nahi Sameer, yehi mere liye kafi hain, aapne sachdil se pucha mujhe...aaj tak mere apne koi nahi, apne mamu ke yaha palibadi, par thi mei parai lekin abh lagraha hai ki mere Zindagi mei ek nayi shuruwat hogi, ek apna khudka parivaar milegi jismei pyaar aur vishwas atooth hain!"
"Thankyou Sameer, mujhe iss parivaar ko denekeliye!"
Silently nodding at her he leaned pressing kiss on her forehead, " yeh tumahri bhi parivaar hain, Ayesha...mei bahut jald baki sab se baat karunga!" He informed her to which she blushed slightly. Both spent quality time with each other.
Otherside, Arjun and Sakshi left shree in Chotu company who were watching movie. Coming to his room, Arjun hugged her from back keeping his head on her shoulders, "Jaan!"
"Arjun mei janti huh aap parshan hain, par apko aram bhi toh karna hai!" Sakshi sighed softly.
"Hmm....". Arjun made a sound.
Sakshi took him to bed and helped him to lay down. Sitting near his head, he immediately shifted his head onto her lap wrapping arms around her waist.
Sakshi started ruffling his hair, "Arjun..so jayiye aap?"
"Nahi Jaan, neendh nahi arraha mujhe..." He whispered slowly still upset.
"Arjun...agar aap rest nahi loge toh theek kaise honge...apko pata bhi hai aapko kitne log miss karrahe Mumbai ke...ki kab unhe ACP Arjun Rawte ki jhalak dhikai dega ...aur kab office ke logon ko apke samje ya samjaov sunhe keliye milega!" She giggled at him.
Looking at her, "acha..... Bas yeh sab miss karrahe?" Arjun whispered gazing at her.
"Haa...aur kaun apko miss karega?" Sakshi replied with a teasing smirk.
"Jaan!!"
"Kya Arjun!!"
"Jaan bano mat!" Arjun gave a look at her.
Keeping hand near his heart, " agar aap ko koi sabse jyaad miss karrahe woh hai aapki Jaan Arjun! Mujhe bikul acha nahi lagraha apko issprakar dekhe....."
"Hmm...mujhe bhi tumse dur rehna nahi abh, jaldi theek hona hai!" Arjun replied looking at her.
"Aur waise bhi Arshi aur Araksh ko aur intezaar karwana bhi theek nahi!" Which brought a frown on her, "yeh Arshi aur Araksh kaun hai Arjun!"
Chuckling at her, "aur kaun humhare bache.."
Hearing him she opened her mouth looking at him, "Arjun!" She whacked on his shoulder the blush visible on her face.
"Kya Jaan abh humhare bache ko aur intezaar nahi karwana mujhe..." He teased enjoying her expressions.
"Dekhna ek baar mei theek hojao, tumhe ek pal keliye bhi chodunga nahi mei!" He teased which turned face into deep rep, mumbled, "Arjun...chup rahiye!" Shyly.
Chuckling at her he traced his fingers on her exposed abdomen, "uss pal ki bahut intezar hai mujhe Jaan ki kab humhara bacha tumhare khok mei hoga!"
Keeping hand on top of his, "woh toh Bhagwan ki marzi haina Arjun, humhare haaat mei kuch nahi!" Even she want to have the symbol of their love in her hands.
"Abh aap so jayiye, medicines liye na aap!" She said closing his eyes. Arjun within few minutes drifted into sleep.
Before lunch, both sam and Arjun settled in other side of living room., "Bata baat kya hai, subah kuch bolne wale tey na?"
"Haa.. baat yeh ki..." Sameer started telling him something. Listening to him Arjun went into deep thinking....there were in deep dicussion which was startled by a shout..."Arjun bhaiya!" A cheerful voice called out.
Arjun turned and saw Sheen running towards him smiled at her. He took her into hug, "Kaise hai meri sheen!"
But he frowned when she started crying, caressed her head, "Areh pagli ro kyu rahi ..dekh mei bilkul theek huh!"
"Sachi!" She looked up with wide eyes.
"Muchi...." He whispered chuckling at her, "abh yeh mote mote assu ko mita dho!"
Nodding at him she moved towards Sameer hugging him, "kaise hoh bhai!" Who nodded with smile.
"Shree bhaiya kaha hai? Dhikai nahi deraha!" She asked him looking here n there.
"Mujhe kya pata, woh kya aajkal mujhse batake kuch karthe hai ...joh man mei aye woh karthe...hoga yahi kahi.." Sameer huffed ignoring the look Arjun was directing while others frowned at him.
"Apka matlab kya hai beta!" Suryakanth moved forward, "Shree ne phirse kuch kiya toh nahi na!"
"Nahi dad aisa kuch nahi hai!" Arjun stepped immediately, but Sam giving a look, "Badepapa ko batate kyu nahi ki uski chot phirse bleed horaha woh bhi diwar se punch marene ke wajah se!" He retorted angrily, telling him what he know.
"Sameer!" Arjun gritted throwing a look but dmaage was done, his dad got angry listening to him called out, "Shree!!!"
"Dad please chodiye na!" Arjun interferred, "Nahi Arjun aap beech mei nahi bolenge!" Suryakant gave his final word.
All looked with worry, but shree still didnot come down, which only angered him, "Ramu Shree ko bhulake lao!"
Ramu kaka came back alone, "Saab ..woh Shree baba so rahe hai!"
"Iss wakht!" Suryakant stepped forward to go by himself but Arjun stopped him, "Dad rukhiyena woh thak gaya hai...raat bar theekse soya nahi..."
"Haa..papa, jane dijiyena!" Sakshi supported Arjun.
Looking at them he sighed, "aapdono usko bhigad ke rakha hai!"
"Undono ko kyu kehrahe hoh....ziddhi, gussa toh Rawte's ka janm sidh adhikar haina!" The person replied from back which got everyone attention.
The team looking at DIG saluted them, who nodded. They frowned at other person, DIG noticing their looks, "Team meet, Mr Vijay Pratap Varma! Cheif of Secret bureau of investigation, India!"
Hearing him all saluted quickly, nodding at them he turned his gaze towards one person, "won't to greet your senior ACP Arjun Rawte!"
Arjun glaring at him sat relaxedly, "why do you think I care!" He retorted with indifference while team gaped at him.
"ACP Arjun, I am your senior!" The person replied firmly while the family shook looking at the drama.
"Toh, na mei duty mei huh...na office mei....yeh ghar mera hai aur mei yaha kiske junior nahi!" He replied in the same tone.
"Lekin mujhse chote toh hai...toh aap apne badon se aise behave karthe!"
"Mujhe pata hai kisse kaise baat karna hain ....lekin shayad aap bhulgaye , agar aap yaha ek senior ki ehsiyat se aya toh bhul jayiye apko koi respect nahi milne wala....lekin agar uss rishte ke naate aye toh baat mat kijiye mujhse!" Arjun huffed at him.
Vikram sighed, "Arjun...mei janta huh aap mujhse naraz hain.....maaf kijiye."
"Nahi...mei apko maaf nahi karne wala mamu!" The team stood shell shocked.
"Par kyu?"
"Kyu matlab, meine sakshi ko ETF se nikhala toh kyu aap usse phirse rejoining diya?" Arjun questioned him.
"Arjun iska jawab aapke paas hain, Sakshi kyu ETF mei rehna chahti aur apne usko unfair nikala...woh theek nahi hain, aap pati hoke sochrahe tey...par humhare field mei jaazbat ka koi jagah nahi!"
"Par iska yeh matlab nahi mei care hih na karu, issliye meine aapse aur uncle se request kiya ki Shree aur Sakshi ko department mei rehne na dhe...lekin aapne kuch nahi sunha...dekhna na uska nateja, uss din sakshi ki jaan khatremei thi aur parso Shree ki kyunki yeh dono kuch sunhe keliye tyaar hih nahi..!" Arjun replied slowly.
"Mei samajtha huh Arjun, issliye toh undono ko aapke under rakha kyunki humsab ko pura yakeen hain ki aap aur Sameer unke dekhbal karenghe.." Vijay replied taking palce beside him, "abh aap boliye aapke tabeeth kaisa hai?" He asked in soft voice caressing his hair gently.
"Mei theek huh mamu!" Arjun replied hugging him suddenly, "aur aapko bahut miss kiya, aap humse milne aye hih nahi!"
"Humahra kaam kaisa hai aaptoh jante hoh na... Arjun! Hum aye tey jab aap hospital mei tey..lekin mujhe turanth wapas jana pada..issliye nahi milpaye aapse!" He replied gently not leaving his hand.
"Acha toh woh aap hai woh mujhe khoon diya tha..." Arjun asked as apart from sakshi and shree, his blood matches with him. Vikram nodded fondly.
Sakshi smiled at him, "abh kya sara pyaar bateje, damad keliye hih hai ya apne beti keliye bhi kuch bachaka rakhe aapne?" She pouted.
"Aaja pagli, tere badepapa kabhi tujhe bula kya?" He mumbled taking her into hug. "I missed you badepapa!"
"Sameer aap akele kyu khade hain, ayiye na...apko bhi bahut miss kiya meine!" Sameer joined the hug with smile.
They all settled themselves, "Arjun Sir, if you don't mind aap unhe mamu bula rahe aur sakshi unhe badepapa woh kyu?" Liza asked him.
"Kyunki Sakshi koi aur nahi mere Anand mamu ki beti hain, Mrs Rawte se pehle woh late IG Anand Pratap verma ki choti beti, joh mere mom aur Vikram mamu ke bhai hai!" Arjun replied to him.
"Bachpan se mujhe, sam, aur sakshi, Shree ko marital arts mei training humahre mamu hih toh diya hai, inko dekhkar hih hum dono department join karne chahte...." The man behind the intelligence and strength of them.
The team was really shocked looking at sakshi whose father death was known to everyone, but yet culprit was till know not found, "Iska matlab Sakshi aur Roshini ji, IG Anand Verma ki betiyan hai!" To which the family nodded.
That was a shocker to him, as whole India knows the news, Shree who was coming down saw Vikram and yelled excitedly, "Mamu!" going towards he gave a tight hug while others chuckled at him.
Vikram returning the hug, "aap kaise hai Shree!" he asked caresseing his head fondly.
"Mei theek huh mamu...aap kaise hai aur kab aye, aur mujhe kisine inform kyu nahi kiya!" Shree fired his questions making him chuckle.
"Mei bhi theek huh, aur todhi der pehle hih aya, aur aap so rahe tey na..." He replied patiently. Looking at the bandage on his hand, "lekin pehle aap mujhe yeh batayiye kya karrahe tey aap, aapke dad aur Sam bhai kehrahe tey ki aap kisike kuch nahi sunrahe tey..."
Hearing him he glanced at others , "woh..woh"
"Woh woh kya laga rakhe hoh, bata mamu ko kya kiya tunhe... Keenchi tarah muh Kyu chala rahe hoh!" Sameer fired on him while Arjun and Sakshi glared at him.
"Aur hum kya sunrahe Shree...aapne phirse apne aap ko chot paunchaya...shayad pechlebaar humhne joh kaha aap dyaan se nahi sunha hoga, kaha na hum agar phirse aisa kuch karenghe joh humhe bilkul pasand nahi...toh hum apko yuhi chodenghe nahi!" Suryakant chided him sternly.
"Dad... Chodiyena!" Arjun interferred but he just gave a stern look at him, "aap beech mei interfere nahi karenghe Arjun!"
"Surya chod na... Kyu bechare ko daanth rahe hoh, dekho kitna weak lagraha...aur tumhare daanth ke karan aur stress lega!" Vikram replied.
Suryakant sighed, "mujhe toh isse kuch bolne dete hih nahi aapsab, sar par beitha ke rakha usko! Issliye apne manmani karrahe!" While others gave a smile at him.
Vikram turning to Shree, took his hand, "Shree.. aapke papa ko toh humne roka lekin aap batayiye kyu karrahe aise, jante nahi aapko aise dekhkar sabko kitna takleef horaha hoga!"
"Sorry mamu, woh mei..." But Arjun stopped him, "koi baat nahi chote...rehne dhe!" and nodded at Vikram.
"Haa...rehne dhe, haina Arjun... aur chadaov isse sar par!" Sameer hissed from aside, going from there. They all looked at him then at shree who was sad, but Arjun assured him.
"Vikram bhai...aap fresh hokar ayiye...lunch ready hai..aaplog bhi!" Arpita informed them who nodded leaving from there.
All settled on the table, having their food...Sameer who sat beside completely avoided Shree who was trying to talk to him, "bhai.. please na I am sorry, baat kijiye mujhse!"
"Ek baat samaj mei nahi atha shree...chupchap khane khalo! Aur mujhse baat karne ki koshish bhi mat karna!" Sameer gritted angrily.
Shree became sad, but kept quite not to irritate him, as curry was finished in his plate he tried to take from the bowl which was in front of him, but couldn't lift the bowl with his lefthand which was bandaged. All saw him but kept quiet, he suddenly hissed, "Ahh!" as his hand touched the bowl.
Everyone got startled but Sameer stopped his action, removing his hand, "kya karrahe hoh chote!" he said in gentle tone and served him the curry. Watching it all smiled as even in angry he couldn't see his brother in pain.
"Abh khalo...aur tujhse naraz huh iskamatlab yeh nahi ki mei tumhe dard mei deksaktha huh, puchna chahiyena mujhe!" Sameer replied gently.
"Team, ek meeting hain....all of you to conference room, now!" Arjun ordered them after Lunch.
"Sakshi tumhe pata hai meeting kissliye?" Liza questioned her.
Sakshi shook her head, "nahi...Arjun ne kuch bataya nahi mujhe, bhai ne tumhe kuch kaha?" She asked looking at Ayesha who nodded in no....
"Phir achanak meeting kissliye!" Shree mumbled taking place beside her, "mujhe game khelna tha..."
"Shree...chup! Agar tera bhai ne sunha toh tumhe joh gadgets chahiye woh bhi nahi dilayenghe, pata nahi aajkal kya khelte rehte hoh!" Sakshi chided him.
They all became silent as Sam, Arjun entered along with Coelho and Vikram. Seeing them all stood with respect.
Vikram sighed everyone to sit, "Team, kuchdin se aaplog koi case take-up nahi kiye, lekin Mumbai ke high command se bahut pressure araha hai ki unh ETF team phirse active chahiye, meine unlogon se baat kiya...kal se aapsab ko duty par report karna hai!"
Team looked at everyone, "iskamatlab humhe office jana hoga?" Shree interrupted him.
"Shree!!" Arjun showed his eyes nodding in no, "Arjun usko ankhe kyu dhikrahe hoh...theek hih toh pucha usne, aapko lagta hain mei aapko aise halath mei office jane dunga?" Sakshi retorted at him.
"Sakshi!"
"Chup rahiye, aap nahi jayenghe aur yeh final hain, na mei aapko chodke javungi!" Sakshi gave her final word.
"Aur mei bhi!" Shree replied firmly, "jabtak bhaiya theek nahi hote woh koi case take-up nahi karenghe!"Arjun sighed at their stubborness, while Coelho and Vikram chuckled watching his face, as it's most difficult for him to convince the both.
Sameer watching them, shook his head and stood, "agar tumdono ka bina pure baat sunhe, baat kaat ne ka adat hogai toh mei kuch kahu?" He asked sarcastically, while they gave a look.
"Kya iss pure ghar mei tumdono akele hoh jise Arjun ki chinta hain, bhai hai woh mere bhi aur apne bhai ka dekhbal karna atha hai mujhe..."
"Par!"
Sameer stopped her showing his hand, "meri baat abhi khatam nahi huyi sakshi, Kabir ka phone aya mujhe, joh test kal karwaye uska report agai...Arjun abh bhilkul theek hain, bas thoda weakness hain, blood loss ke karan...lekin woh kaam karne keliye fit hai!"
"Aur mei kaha usse kal hih office anekeliye bolraha huh...hum kuchdin ghar se kaam karenghe, ...aur humsab haina iska dekhbal karne, jaise usse takan hoga woh rest lega!" Sameer replied to them.
"Jaise yeh humhare baat sunthe!" Sakshi mumbled slowly.
"Kuch kaha tum?" Arjun narrowed his eyes, but she shook her head in no.
"Lekin sir hum ghar se kaise kam karsakthe!" Liza asked him, "mujhe toh lab mei kaam hoga na?"
"Acha hai, tum jao office kamse kam yaha shanthi toh hogi!" Shree mumbled but everyone listened to him.
"Chote chup ek sabdh nahi abh tere muh se!" Arjun chided him.
"Liza tum yeh nalayak ki baaton par dyaan mat dho...aur chinta mat karo.....tum forensic analysis keliye office jaa sakthe hoh, apna file banake RR wapas anna, aur baki tech aur sab ka intezam outhouse mei hogaya hai!" Sameer replied to them.
"Aur basement mei training room bhi hai, chaye toh use karsakthe tum log, sare equipments available hai waha!" Coelho replied to the team.
The team nodded silently, "last mei ek aur baat, due to security reasons aapsab ko yaha shift hona hoga, intelligence report ayi hai Arjun aur Sameer par nazar rakhrahe bahut hih bada gang...aur unn tak paunchn ke liye woh team ko use karenghe, aise mei aapsab ka bahar rehna theek nahi, RR mansion bahut safe hai....yaha ke security ko koi nahi todh payega"
"Par sir hum yaha kaise rukhsakthe!" Ayesha asked with hesitation, as for few days it would be okay but completely shifting without any realtion it would be awkward.
Sam-jun glanced at eachother as they were talking about the sanething few hours back.
"Don't worry, inspector Ayesha Kapoor! Mei samaj sakthi huh ki aap sab ke paarivaar ke log kye sochenghe, kyunki iss ghar ki dho jawan bete hain jinke shaadi abhi tak nahi huwa, aise mei aap teenon ko yeha rehna maylab tarah tarah baate hoga bahar, aur hum aapke parivaar valo ko uncomfortable nahi karna chahte....... issliye aapsab outhouse mei rehenghe! Aapsab ko pura freedom hai joh karna chahte karsakthe, bas itna hai ki yaha aaplogon ko protection milega!" Vikram replied to her softly.
"Aur utna hih nahi team mei koi bhi mujhe bina bataye kahi nahi jayega!" Sameer ordered them to which all nodded except shree and Sakshi.
Glaring at them, "tumdono ko alag invite dhu kya?"
"Nahi lekin yeh aap kis hak se bolerahe...ek bhai ya ETF cheif Sameer Rathod!" Sakshi asked him.
"Sam Rukho iska jawab mei dungha!" Arjun stopped him knowing she had tendency to twist their words and no one can escape from it.
"Toh tumhe yeh jawab chahiye ki sam kis hak se bole rahe toh sunho woh ek ETF cheif ke ehsiyat se bola....lekin sakshi yeh mat bhulna ki mei tumhara pati huh, aaur tumse pehle bhi kaha bina mujhe kuch kahe tum iss ghar ki daleen par nahi karoge, samje ya samajoav!" Arjun replied firmly.
Sakshi nodded slowly as he cornered from all sides gave a glare, ignoring it he turned to other, "and this applies to you as well Shreekanth Rawte! And this time don't you dare to test my patience because I promise you that it won't end well if you step one foot across the line!"
Shree nodded silently, "toh aap sab ko koi aithraz nahi na? " Vikram interferred knowing Arjun and Sam would give earful to both if not stopped.
"Ek aur baat guys, ismei humhara bhi faida hai! Arjun ke accident ke baad badepapa chahte ki humsab wapas ajaye, aise mei agar Shree aur Sakshi ki ghar ana jana mei koi unhe pehchan sakthe aur unhe der nahi lagega humse relation jodne mei , agar pura team yaha rehega toh kisiko shak nahi hoga aur in dono ko particularly target nahi karega!" Arjun replied to them the other reason while Shree and Sakshi looked on with suprise.
"Arjun kya hum wapas ghar mei arrahe?" Sakshi questioned as he didn't told her.
"Haa...jaan, ghar mei sab pareshan hai humsabko lekar...utna hih nahi Kabir aur Manish uncle bhi shift horaha yaha!" Arjun replied to her.
"Shree tum chup kyu hoh!" Sameer frowned at him.
"Kuch nahi ...itni badi decision aur aapsab mujhe ya bhabhi ko batana theek nahi samje?" Shree frowned at them.
"Chote yeh decision humhne todider pehle hih kiye tey...aur waise bhi tumhe toh kush hona chahiyena baki team yaha rahega, tumhe toh bahut Masti karneke milegi!" Arjun replied to him, while others looked at shree with hesitation.
"Mei bacha nahi huh joh masti karu...agar meeting hogai toh mei chalu!" Shree replied which shocked Arjun and his family.
Arjun understood something happened as he saw his behaviour towards the team mainly towards the girls, frowned "Shree baat kya hai...tum bahut chidrahe hoh!" Arjun asked him.
"Kuch nahi bhaiya ....sorry aapse aise baat karne keliye!" Shree replied with guilt. Vikram dismissed everyone asking Sama and Arjun to remain.
