FF: Ek Aur Zindagi.. Ch:29 page 137 - Page 65

PART 20:

Sree is given the job to check Rony's call records. His last call was last night just before his death. The call came from an unidentified fake number, all the more upsetting Arjun.

Arj: whats going on? Kaun ithna bada sazish kar raha hai? why is everything going towards dead end?

Sam: relax Rawte. We will close this file soon.

Arj: I cant relax till then.

They went to the office. There was nothing more to do there.

ETF office:

The team walked in to the hall while Arjun went to check Adi. The kid was playing in his small playstation. Arjun hugged him from back. "hey champ…"

Adi: hey Dad. Kaam khatam hua?

Ar: nope. Bas thode der keliye wapas aya. Hows it going on here?

Ad: great. Look…

He showed all the pics that he drew.

Ar: wow… great… and this one is too good.

Ad: thanks…

Ar: ok, sorry baba mujhe thode aur kaam hai. you will adjust here na?

Ad: haan. No problem. Waise Dad mujhe camp jaane me koi problem nai hai.

Ar: aaj nahi beta. Hum kuch din baad chalege.

Ad: ok.

Ar: see you soon. Kuch bhi chahiye tho kisise bhi keh dena.

Ad: ok…

Arjun leaves after kissing Adi's forehead.

Hall:

Arjun walks in when all where looking at Sree's screan.

Arj: kya hua?

Sr: sir, Sakshi found something interesting.

Ar: kya?

Arjun takes his seat. All look at Sakshi to explain. She was a bit worried to face him.

Sam: bolo Sakshi.

Sak: Sameer. I was watching the CCTV footages. Jab Arjun aur Adi food court se khana kha rahe the, thab Rony ne ek phone call kiya tha. Ussi waqt parking lot me ek aur admi phone kar rahe the.

She stopped.

Arj: tho??

Sak: watch this.

She asked Sree to put the videos on bigger screen.

Sak: that's Rony calling and you two nearby. (showing another split screen) that's a man calling in parking lot.

The man she showed was walking by many vehicles casualy. The face was not clear.

Sak: now watch this. (she forwards the video when Arjun is about to follow the bike, but a car comes in front and starts firing.) look at the hand. (she point the hands in the two video) the same bracelet. So the firing man and the calling man are the same.

Sam: good job Sakshi.

She smiles and looks at Arjun who was still looking at the screen.

Sr: but we didn't see his face or car number.

Arj: yes, we did!!!

Sam: kaha?

Arj: check the car that went out after firing. The same model car is parked when he is on phone. Sree zoom in there. That can be his car or not. Lets check it out.

Sr: yes sir. we have the number.

Arj: get all details immediately. (to Sakshi) good job.

Sakshi nods thankfully.

After a while:

Sr: sir car is located. But…

Sam: dammit!! Again but??

Sr: sir kisine wo car ko aag laga di hai.

Sam: car kiske naam me the?

Chotu: Varun Mehra ke naam pe. Lekin wo keh rahe hai ke wo uss gadi ko ek saal pehle bhej diya hai.

Arj: kisse?

Cho: Mangesh naam ke ek dealer hai jo used cars ko lethe hai.

Arj: fir wo car abhi bhi Varun ke naam me kyu?

Cho: Varun says he completed all the paper works before going abroad.

Arj: abroad?

Ch: ji sir. he is settled in USA.

Arj: hm. Uss Mangesh ko bulao yaha. Ussi se bath karthe hai.

Ch: yes sir.

Sam: hm… ya tho fir Mangesh isme directly involved hai, ya koi uss car ko use kiya hai. ye aaj kal log sare transactions pe dhyan kyu nahi de rahe hai? gadi tho bhej diya, lekin abhi bhi uske naam me??

The clock stricks loud.

Sam: damn, time bhi kithne jaldi nikal rahe hai.Arjun, Adi ko kuch khane do. Hum kaam ke beech me usse bhool hi gaye.

Arj: ok

Arjun leaves to the cabin. Adi was almost asleep in his huge chair, snuggling closer to the arm rest. He sat on his knees by him and patted his hair. "Adi…"

He wakes up slowly. "dad… aap kab aye?"

Ar: bas abhi… so gaye? Bhoog lagi hai na?

Ad: hm… thodi thodi. Dad apke kaam kab khatam hoga?

Ad: kyu? bore ho rahe ho?

Ad: hm…

Arjun lifts Adi up to him. "Sorry beta. Hum sab kaam me busy the aur apko dhyan hi nahi de paya. Isiliye meine apko camp me choda tha. Lekin ab kuch din waha nahi ja payega."

Ad: its ok. Dad bhoog lagi hai.

Ar: ok lets go and have something.

They were about to leave, when Sakshi knocked at the door and walked in.

Arjun looked at the small parcel in her hand. She saw his look and stammered.

Sak: wo… mujhe laga Adi ko bhoog lage hoge. Tho meine uskeliye ek pizza order kiya…

He eyed her. Adi was amused at his dad's serious look and Aunty's fear.

Adi: thanks aunty.

That brought Arjun back. He took the parcel and opened it. It was a pizza for two, with a small piece missing. He looked at her again.

Sak: Aisha ne kaha ke bahar ke khana check karna hoga. Abhi jo situation hai… isliye… tho Liza ne check kiya. Its fine.

Arj: hmm

Arjun took a piece and gave to Adi. He was happy to have his pizza. Arjun smiled at him and turned to Sakshi. She was watching Adi eating pizza happily. She looked up and saw Arjun watching her. "oh… ok. Mien chalthi hu…"

She fumbled and turned back to the door. "Sakshi…" she turned around.

Arj: thanks.

She just nodded and left the cabin.

He turned his concentration to Adi. He gave water and sat by him while eating. Adi also fed Arjun with some pieces and was happy.

Adi: dad, ek bath puchu?

Arj: hm

Adi: aap aunty ko aise gur kyu rahe the?

Ar: nahi tho.

Ad: meine dekha. Patha hai aaj aunty ro rahi thi.

Ar: hm.

Ad: mujhe acha nahi laga.

Ar: hm.

Ad: aapne unhe danta tha?

Ar: Adi…

Ad: unhe math dantna. Wo ithne bhi bure nahi hai.

Ar: ok.

Ad: tho ek aur piece khao.

Ar: bas, tum khao.

Ad: baki sabne khaya?

Ar: nahi baadme khayega.

Ad: dad, mujhe yaha kyu rakhe ho? camp me kyu nahi jarahe hai.

Ar: Sam uncle chahthe hai, ke jisne wo goli chalaya tha, pehle uske patha lagau, fir camp chalege.

Ad: par dad, aapne hi kaha tha na ke hum nahi dar rahe hai. fir kyu aise chupe hai?

Ar: hum do tho nahi dar rahe hai. Sam uncle ko dar lag rahe hai na??

Ad: really?? Unhe dar lagthe hai?

Ar: bohot…

Ad: silly uncle.

Ar: yeah. so are you full now?

Ad: yup. Ek piece baki hai. kisse du?

Ar: tum baadme khalena.

Ad: na. uncle ko dethe hai. chalo.

He takes the kit and walks towards Sameer's cabin with Arjun behind him.

Ad: uncle, ye lo ek piece pizza hai. aap khalo.

Sam was with Aisha discussing some matter.

Ad: are didi, aap bhi hai? par ek hi piece hai. kya karu?

Ai: koi bath nahi hai. aapke uncle ko dedo.

Sam: nahi Aisha its ok.

Adi: ab aap dono lado math. Half half karke khalo. Dad, do half banado iska.

Arjun tears it into 2 and hands them.

Ai: thanks Adi.

He smiles and turns to Sameer. "uncle aap daro math. Mien teekh hu. Please mujhe camp jaane do"

Sameer was confused. "excuse me?"

He looks at Arjun who was smirking.

Adi: dad ne bathaya ke apko dar lag rahe hai ke mujhe kuch hoga. Isliye aap mujhe camp nahi jaane derahe hai. please mujhe jaane do na.

Sam: aur ye sab aapke dad ne kaha?

Ad: haan. Kyu?

Sameer looked at Arjun, who mouthed 'sorry'.

Sam: umm… sorry Adi. 1-2 din aur wait karo. Please.

Ad: hm… ok. par aunty mujhe leja sakthe hai na?

Ar: kya??

Adi: Aunty tho nani ke beti hai. wo bhi apke team me hai. tho strong hai na? tho koi problem nahi hai na?

Arj: nahi Adi, aise nahi hosaktha hai.

Adi: aap abhi bhi unse naraz ho? please dad, yaha bohot boring hai. please…

Arj: ek din ke baad sochthe hai Adi. Please.

Ad: (little bit upset) ok.

Arj: its for your safety beta.

Ad: I know.

Arj: my good boy.

Adi smiles half heartedly and leaves the cabin.

Ais: naraaz hai.

Ar: he will be fine.

Sam: but I think Sakshi can handle him.

Ar: but I don't trust her.

Sam: kyu?

Arj: patha nahi. Its not yet time.

Somewhere else:

Man1: kuch patha chala?

Man2: bache ko office me hi rakha hai.

Man1: akhir kab thak? Ek din bahar nikalne hi hoga.

Man2: kya irada hai? car tho usse mil gaya. Lekin koi fayda nahi hua. Ab wo log Mangesh ke peeche hoge.

Man1: tho bhi kuch nahi hoga. Plan ke sath aage bhado.

Man2: tho agla step kya hai?

Man1: wahi jo pehle keh diya tha. Boss ko uss bache se kuch lena dena nahi. Hai tho bas uss ACP se. aur usse sirf apne beche ke parwah hai. tho wahi hamara rasta hai. ab ek din aur. Uske baad sab kuch khatam.
