new OS: Ye dosti tere dam se...

Life was soo beautiful... everything was perfect... he had his best friend, his partner in crime, his boss ACP sameer Rathod with him... and there she was, his beautiful wife, his love, his Roshni... life is soo good...

**

It was sameer's birthday... sameer was bit off so he stayed at home. Arjun had made sure that roshni would stay with him and take care of him, as he was arranging party for the birthday boy...

He came back in the afternoon... he opened the door with the spare keys and entered shouting..

"Roshni... sameer... get ready soon... we need to leave in half n hour..."

But one look he swept across the room, made his breath stop.

The hall was a complete mess. Things were strewn every where. Furnitures were upside down, there were even bullet holes on the walls.

He screamed their name and ran into every room, searching for the two most important people in his life. He found them no where in the house. He rushed back to hall and was about to call the ETF members, his eyes fell on the wall where their photo was hung.

"S"

The symbol he very well knew... Sikander.. Anger started bubbling in him and at that very moment he received a call.

"hello, ACP Arjun.. may I know who is speaking?"

"o my my... itna polite??!!!! Kab se mere dost??" Arjun heard a laughter.

"sikander..."

"wow... you recognized me... I am happy that you did not forget me..."

"how can I not sik... where is sam and roshni??"

"they are with me brother... safe and sound... just I have them tied to pillers... and sameer hanging... hahahaha"

"SIKANDER... don't you dare hurt them... "

"ooo... main to dar gaya... hahaha... dekho ACP. Agar tumhe unhe bachana hai to iss pate pea a jao... akele... if I see anyone with you, I ll not keep them alive.."

"NO... I ll come... alone."

"good bye... jald hi milte hai..."

***********

Arjun asked shree to keep an eye on the location he was going and reach there soon...

He then took his SUV and went to the location sik had called him...

***********

It was almost evening when he reached that place. It was a beautiful mansion away from the city. Arjun saw no men outside, but being the cop he was he was ready with the gun. He slowly opened the door and went in... he heard a voice...

"welcome ACP... tum yahi soch rahe honge ki yahan koi kyun nahin hai???? Don't get surprised... sab hai yahan par tumhare aankhon ke saamne nahin hai. Oki zyada baatein nahin... jahan tum ab khade ho, take 10 steps..(Arjun did so) good. Now four to your left and then turn right and walk down 25 steps... very good Arjun... now open the door... aahaan koi hoshiyaari nahin.. keep that gun outside... good ab ander aajao..."

The scene he saw in was horrifying... he saw sameer tied to ropes and was hung down from a frame and his wife was tied to a chair.

"inhe chod do sikander (leave them sikander)..."

"not soo soon my friend.. na jaane kitne saare hisaab chukta karna hai hume..nahin??????"

"teri dushmani mujhse hai... to tu inhe kyun kaayaron ki tarah beech mein laa raha hai...?"

"haan... par tumne bhi mujhse mere best friend ahmed ko cheena hai na.. to main kaise isse chod dun"

Another voice boomed in "roshni ko chod do sik... she has nothing to do with all these..."

"arre wah... dost ki biwi ke liye mujhe vakaalat? Maan na padega...kya dosti hai... arre birju, madam ki zara khaatirdaari karna..."

"arrrjunn..." she screamed in pain and fear when birju pressed the knife to her throat.

Arjun tried to move forward but was held by 3 people. He kicked in air and tried to shove them away.but was unsuccessful in his attempts.

"chod de usse sikander... usne kuch nahin kiya hai... leave her dammit"

"theek hai Arjun. Main usse chod deta hun... magar meri ek shart hai..."

"kaisi shart?"

"agar tu roshni ko zinda dekhna chahta hai, to apne dost ko thoda takleef de... usse mere saamne torture kar... fir main teri biwi ko...chod doonga... hahahha...choose now... biwi ya dost????"

"kabhi nahin... main sameer ke saath aisa kuch nahin karoonga..."

"to teri biwi gayi is duniya se... birju..."

Briju pressed the knife even more and Arjun stood there helplessly. He could never hurt sameer and could not even afford lose roshni.

" Arjun, aap iski baat nahin maanenge...aaah..."

"Arjun... torture me... you cant let her die"

"no sameer... I cant torture you... I just cant..." his eyes were filled, his voice choking.

"no Arjun... tumhe ye karna hoga.. atleast apne bacche ke liye...wo bacchi jisse iss duniya mein aane mein sirf 1 month hai... soch mat Arjun... torture me and save her..."

"no sameer bhaiyya..."

"no sam... I cant do this... you are like my brother..."

"Arjun, tumhe meri kasam... torture me now.."

"sameer"

"yes Arjun... mujhe meri jaan se zyada roshni ki jaan important hai... do it Arjun... tumhe meri kasam."

Arjun had tears blinding his eyes and he recalled every moment he spent with sam, right from their childhood.

" I am sorry sam... m sorry"

"arre waah kya dosti hai aur kya pyaar hai. Arjun you don't have time, take this and start now."

"come on Arjun you can do this...mujhe kuch nahin hoga... comeon..."

Arjun took the hunter and shut his eyes tightly. He waved it at sameer so that it just touches him."

Sam smiled "ye kabhi nahin sudhrega..."

"aise nahin Arjun... jaise tum mujrimon ko berehmi se maarte ho aise maaro... full force ke saath. Dekhte hai iss ACP mein kitni taakat hai"

"no..."he whispered. He was completely broken from inside. How can he hurt his friend?

"yes you ll Arjun...yaad hai na maine tumhe kasam di hai. Now comeon..."

Arjun took a deep breath and swung the hunter with full force. Sameer gasped at the pain that shot up and Arjun flinched. Sik had his share of evil laughter and roshni was crying...

"m sorry sam... m sorry..."

He flung the hunter again and again and kept saying sorry. Tears were streaming down his eyes and was dying every moment.

Sikander was adding to the torture by whipping sameer with a lash which had a spiked metal ball at the end.

Sameer's skin was cut and blood oozed out. He was slowly draining...

"I cant... i cant do this anymore..." Arjun threw the hunter down and turned to untie sam.

"no Arjun... agar tumne iss khel ko roka to roshni mar jaayegi.." said sik with an evil glint in his eyes.

"no Arjun... you ll not...stop... tumne kasam khayi hai..."

"nooo..." he again swung the lash.

Sikander made him to continue this until sameer was unconscious.

Before he went unconscious, he only said

"Arjun...keep roshni safe..'

Arjun fell on ground on his knees. He covered his eyes and wept. He then jerked his head up and saw his hands in disgust.

"these are the very hands that tended his wounds. See the irony.. these are the one today which are giving him wounds..."

Roshni was all the time crying...

"yahin zindagi hai ACP Arjun... ab marne ke liye tayyar ho jao... don't worry, thodi hi der mein I ll send these two to you..."

"mujhe maar de.. waise bhi aaj maine jo kia uske baad I have no right to live. But leave these two..."

"wo main dekh loonga... roshni ko shaayad main chod doon par not sameer... he need to die... hahahah..."

"nahin... you will not kill him sikander... mujh pe taras khake to usse chod do.." roshni pleaded him between her sobs.

"no roshni... you ll not plead him.. "

Suddenly the door banged open and the rest ETF team entered. Within no time they got sikander at gun point and lowered sameer. Sikander tried to escape but in time Arjun bore all the bullets in his body.

"Ye mere dost ko mere haathon se maarne pe majboor karne ke liye...

Ye roshni ko torture karne ke liye..

Ye mere bacche ko maarne ki dhamki ke liye

Ye sam ko maarne ki dhamki ke liye

Ye kanoon todne ke liye

Ye un sab logon ke liye jinki zindagi tere haathon se barbaad hui hai..."

With the last bullet sik fell on ground dead.

Sameer and roshni were shifted to hospital and there roshni gave birth to a baby boy...

**************

After sam was recovered,

"sameer.. I am soo sorry. Maine tujhe wahan itna torture kiya... I am ashamed of myself ki main usse nahin rok saka... I am soo sorry..."

"Arjun... isme teri koi galti nahin hai... you had refused but it was me who made you do that.. I am sorry..."

"no sam..."

"Arjun..."

"oki... I give up..."

"Arjun, aap yahan ho... dekhiye ansh chup hi nahin ho raha... wo to aap donon ke saath hi zyada khush rehta hai.,..."

"aakhir hum uske papa aur maama jo thehre..." Arjun and sameer said in corus.😊😊😊
