Durjjan family sat around the hall in house, a bad silence hanging between them…………… it was past dawn n their eyes were blood shot , being drunk n not slept for the night ………their faces reflected anger n humiliation ……… a servant brought them tea ……….. Sakthi , his face contorted in anger sipped once n then threw the cup at the servant , burning his face with hot tea……..'is this a tea? How dare u ?...' he shouted , standing up while the servant cowed , trying to stand properly , not upsetting the tray in his hands ………………. 'how dare u...what's the use of being a servant if don't even know how to make tea?' bellowed sakthi , kicking the servant on stomach with his leg…… The servant fell down smashing the tray , his back hitting against a cabinet …………… Sakthi stamped him , again n again, shouting 'who did he think he is ? him…………! Everytime he gets one over us…! Impotent dog !' ……he was forced to dug up a man who he got killed n that was making him angrier …… Lakhan looked at him , mockingly as he said 'u should have stamped him, rather than taking out ur anger on a mere servant!...'
Sakthi turned on lakhan , while the servant curled under his feet in pain , blood spluttering from his mouth …………… 'ha, look who is talking! He didn't even let u finish off with that girl n almost killed u , while u made baby faces at us to rescue u , n u r talking!!!!' Sakthi roared in laughter …………… lakhan stood up , angry n mortified 'I was caught off guard Okay….what were u doing , BTW? Standing as statues n letting him talk n talk……………! What happened manu ? weren't u telling the other day that u won't let anybody else kill him, as u want to do it………..what happened ? ' manu lurched up from the seat ' ha! U had to dig up a body n u didn't get ur fill for the night n ur taking that frustrations on me………! I stand by what I told……I will kill him…………I am not like u impotents ….' Sakthi looked even more angry 'one more word n I will kill u instead!' he shouted at manu…………….
'Enough!' said Durjjan, standing up…………………. His sons looked daggers at each other before looking down …………….. 'enough! ………… stop fighting like kids…..! he caught him off guard ………..that's all! ……….. we weren't expecting him to come back from Mumbai this soon …………..don't worry , we will get our wish…………we need to plan more meticulously………….. now, we have work to do………………concentrate on it………………..' sakthi n others fumed ……………… Durjjan said , pacing 'sakthi , we need to get that gandhian Sharma into our custody………….. he has some docs which will prove ours n shailendra's role in the recent riots……….. we need to get them, immediately …………take lakhan too with u……n remember , don't kill him until he gives us what we want…….' Sakthi n lakhan nodded , still glaring at each other………………. 'n manu, take these cartons of money to Shailendra's house '……………… sakthi protested as manu nodded , smiling in glee ………………'what! I will go there ….I want to see her' …………..'sakthi, dear' Durjjan , said gritting his teeth 'do as I tell u……………besides u n lakhan don't want to present ur sorry faces before shailendra after yesterday night too soon………………do u understand?' Manu chortled at them as Sakthi n lakhan looked ashamed ………….'n manu, I am sending u only bec it won't look good on our part if I send a servant there with the money , considering our changing relationships ' Manu pursed his lips ………………….

It was 9 in the morning……………….A powerful M.P has come to meet sajjan singh ……. Gayatri devi sat next to Sajjan singh while Chandu was arranging for the dealers to come………….. The M P said 'sajjan ji…u must help us…………….Sharmaji has the evidence against that traitor Shailendra …………… imagine if he wins the elections! ………… he n Durjjan will turn this city into hell!... we want both of them stopped…………. .atleast Shailendra stopped …………… for now……' Sajjan looked at the M.P, his face serious 'What do u want? Killing a defense minister is going to be expensive…………' the M. P shook his head 'no….we don't want him dead…………….we want him disgraced ……….. his real face should be revealed …………… u see he has build up such a good reputation among public……his murder will create havoc….. n we r hearing that he is going to nominate his daughter for the post of secretary of his party youth wing , ofcourse Durjjan n his sons will rule , standing behind her….as u must have heard , he is planning to fix his daughter's marriage with sakthi singh' …
gayatri looked at M. P………' so what do u want?' 'we want protection for Sharma n the evidence, Sajjanji …..until the party decides its time to expose Shailendra ………..for the time being………' said the M.P….. 'hmmm…..' Sajjan singh got up , as the breakfast was served 'funny how things changes………… last week I was thinking of killing Sharma n now……!' The M.P stood up shocked …… 'what….what r u …..' Sajjan held up a hand……………'U have my word…………. Sharma's safety is my responsibility………….' 'oh..Ok Sajjanji………..' M.P said , relieved ………………..Gayatri accompanied the M.P up to the entrance as Sajjan called Chandu 'where is Krishna? Last night also he was late n not here for the dinner? Call him…………….' 'Yes bauji…...i think he is not up yet' smiled Chandu pocketing his mobile …… 'The dealers will arrive during noon, bauji……….' He continued ………..
'I see…… u heard the M.P, deploy our men at Sharma's house……….today…………. n call that friend of yours to come down for breakfast…………' Sajjan said smiling………….. Chandu climbed the stairs n turned to the corridor leading to krishna's room …he knew why Krishna never eats from home if he could help it……..…however he tries hard to show he is unconcerned , he always stares at the empty space at the dining table………n Chandu knows that Sajjan singh knows it too… …………he stopped short …………meera was lurking near krishna's door , doubtful n tensed n afraid, clad in the most revealing clothes ………she had been there since dawn, trying to amass the courage to get in…….the moment she saw chandu , she tried to look confident n important n with a smug look on her face , but with trembling hands n body , she opened the door n got in………….. Chandu sighed n turned away , walking to his room………….
Meera , trembling from head to foot, looked across to the bed where Krishna lay sprawled , deep in sleep, his clothes n shoes strewn all over the carpet……………… 'ok…don't panic…' Meera told herself……….. she was going to give herself one last try…………… nobody in the household , servants she meant, knew that she was going to be sacked from her position …………. N she can't dream of the humiliation when they , especially the maids found out…………… She approached the vast , king size bed , her fingers greedily brushing over the silken bed spread , even though she was shivering with fear………… he lay carelessly, haphazardly yet majestically on his belly, his face turned away from her , the sheet barely covering down his hips……………. She gulped , trying to pull his shirt off the bed which lay half hanging from the bed , in an effort to wake him up…………….. Krishna stirred , disturbed ………… meera immediately stepped back, her courage failing , clutching at his shirt for dear life………….
Krishna turned his head, his body stretching, his eyes sharp on meera, looking at her, trying to place her…… ……..'I….I…..malik…. would u like……to have …….' meera stuttered ………. 'bring coffee ………. Take that n all this stuff for laundry …………………' Krishna said , indicating his shirt she clutched in her hand n the rest of his clothes ……………….' N tell Chandu that I want him here……………..' Krishna said , turning again to sleep……………… Meera listened to the most audible n stunning silence in her life …………………. That's it………….. she is over………….. she wasn't 'going to become' a maid servant ……………… she was one all along ……… …….she was just a servant who came to his room to do their chores ……….she had been a fool to think that may be she is special…... Meera looked at krishna n then all around the room………… she felt the world around her spinning out of control………………. No!...no…. she will have to find a way to keep the privileges she enjoyed intact …………….she can't be a mere maid servant………… she is the mistress of the house …………….. she staggered back n walked out of the room , picking up his clothes ………Krishna said , without turning , his voice cold….'n that's the last time any servant entering my room without my permission , understood ?' ………….meera jolted, halting at the door 'yes….ma..malik…' she shuddered ……..now there is only one option left ……………Angad………she thought bitterly………
***************************************
Geetha opened her office door , cautiously ………………. As she had suspected everyone of her colleagues sat at the centre of the room before dinesh , who was imitating her pathetic show last night……………… she groaned n entered to tumultuous hooting n leg-pulling ……………..she walked purposefully to her chair , glaring at dinesh n flopped down…………… no….she was not going to back down…………… she will get a big story of her life……………… n she was determined that it should be on those mysterious father n son , who ruled U P , whom everybody suspect r criminals, but never admits , n instead believe r powerful businessmen……………….. then one of her colleague came over to her , trying not to laugh n asked innocently 'hey, I didn't see ur birthday pics yesterday…..show me….' Geetha expecting more leg-pulling was relieved n delved in her bag for her cam………….. she shot up , petrified …………..OMG …………..her birthday photos were also in that card…………… she looked at her friend , shocked as an odd thought came to her mind …..what if he checked the card before destroying it? Her cheeks colored at the thought ………………she had been making faces at the cam, covered in cake as dinesh took the pics…………she prayed to god that Chandu don't open the card………………. She was even more tensed that why the hell is she not bothered about a suspected criminal seeing the pics, but more bothered that he may see her in such embarrassing poses…………….
***************************************************
Chandu who was in his room , collected his clothes for washing ………………… n the memory card fell out on to the floor …………………… he picked it up, geetha's face flashing in his eyes…………….. he twirled it in his fingers feeling odd……………… he threw his clothes away n collected his cam n put the card in………………. why is he opening this in the first place ?he should burn it ...he wondered even as his fingers were deftly pressing the buttons…………ok he would just check it n then destroy it……. Curiosity got the better off him n he open the images ………… a girl's face fully covered in cake stared back at him , but her eyes were staring at the tip of her nose n her tongue was out half way off her mouth …………….. he started at the pic for a few moments before a foolish smile crossed his lips …………….which remained on his lips as he skimmed through the next few photographs ………silly he don't even know her name……….yet he continued to smile ……
until he saw the pic of Shailendra family getting out of the car………………..every thought of geetha vanished from his mind…..he stared at the pic, shocked……………he knew that girl……………infact he only met her yesterday morning……… the courageous , beautiful n upright girl………what was her name, yeah Pratigya , a peculiar name…….n she was this worm shailendra's daughter ! n she was going to marry that dog sakthi!! Chandu shook his head n stared again at Pratigya's pic…………… something is wrong…………… something has to be wrong……………… meera, ashen faced ,yet trying to sound important, called out from the door 'hey u driver, Chote Thakur wants to see u'…………she went away quickly , not wanting to linger so that he can gloat on her state………… Chandu looked up , taking the card out n pocketing it n nodded absently………………….
*****************************************
'Oh, welcome beta……………' Shailendra smiled laboriously as he saw manu entering with the money , his greedy eyes on the cartons………………. Manu looked around , for any sign of pratigya , his eyes lustful ……………. 'have tea…….. beta ' Shailendra said , trying to sound normal …………. 'oh yes, uncle, where's my sweet bhabhi?' manu asked sitting down …………….. 'she is not up yet , I think ' Shailendra said , indicating bakshi to take the cartons inside as renuka served them tea, with trembling hands ……………….. 'I will just go n see her then' manu said getting up , his tone barely able to keep his lust masked …………….. Shailendra nodded , smirking slyly as he said 'no naughty games , beta , not until this marriage is over …………… after that she is coming to ur own house na…………. show a little bit of patience …………….' 'ofcourse , no naughty games , uncle……..' manu winked at him n climbed up the stairs, running……………… the tea tray in renuka's hands fell, the broken shreds scattering across the floor …………….. shailendra looked at her , angry ………'she is ur daughter………… pls ….. I thought u have fixed her alliance with his brother……………' she stammered, sobbing ………… Shailendra stood up , snarling ' what's the difference ? They r all the same…………… she has to learn to behave accordingly……………….. u know she is arrogant , thinks that she is too good for men……..she hates men na, thinks that men r low life………….. she is going to find out that she is just a mere speck of dirt …………….. she is going to find out what men really r …………… she is going to find out what is the real position of women in the world……………beneath the man, a mere slave, in bed , in society………always below his shoes………….' Shailendra laughed evily……………..
