Chapter 27 A
It was decided by the adults that Aarti would spend the last year of secondary school with her parents Akash and Aripta, they bought a house opposite the Sharmas in Bhopal so Aarti could still be close to her foster family and Mansi can sleep over. Akash did a lot of travelling throughout India and neighbouring countries SP decided that Pankaj would take some of the responsibilities from Akash giving him time to spend with his daughter before she leaves for university although they were planning for Akash to head their European business offices in London for the duration of time that Aarti will be at school there. The Sharma's merged their family business with the Scandia's and Deo Singhs. Akash had decided that he had enough of politics, too many were against his ideas for change, and the constant treat to his family he could live without, now his main focus was on his daughter and her happiness.
Aarti was excited and happy to live with her parents, and on the other hand sad to leave the Sharmas; even though all said now she has two homes where she can spend time in both. Mansi was also sad but then quickly understood it was for the best for her di to spend some alone quality time with her parents before they become adults and too engross in their own lives.
December came quickly the girls like most health conscious person went for their morning jog to the nearby park despite it being a chilly morning, Prateek was nagging his Pankaj bhayia to teach him to ride a moto bike so he agreed that morning he took him to the quiet street where the Sharmas and Deo Singhs lived. While jogging with the guard following the girls a car came into the quiet street the guy stopped and asked the girls for direction which they give, and both continued on their respective ways. The driver turned his car around came to a screeching halt two men came out grabbed Aarti a third came and hit Mansi on the side of her face shoving her down on the sidewalk. Mansi screamed trying to grab the man's leg making him fall while Aarti tried wriggling out of the men's hold but they had grabbed her feet and her upper body she tried hitting the man holding her upper body with her head screaming all the way. They had a difficult time to get her into the car. Pankaj and Prateek who were close by heard and saw the commotion Pankaj and the guard ran to the assistance of the girls but they only managed to apprehend the guy Mansi tripped and the one holding on to Aarti's feet after a brief fight. Prateek who was momentary stunned reacted only after he heard his Aarti didi screamed again while they roughly shoved her into the car and the door slammed when the driver speed off. On an adrenaline rush Prateek speed the bike after the car and the kidnappers with his Aarti didi Prateek followed then he stopped a distant from them and called his Pankaj bhayia who quarrelled with his chote about his rash decision but Prateek said his didi life depends on his help, he give the direction to the place they stopped he watched from a distance how they transferred a weak Aarti from the car into a van he give the make and model of the van to his bhayia; starting the bike again to follow then he stopped again a distance away calling his bhayia again with the number of the van. Pankaj again warned him to wait right there and stop following that those were dangerous people who would not stop to hurt or kill him, but Prateek love for his didi give him the confidence to follow at a distance he saw that they entered a lonely lane and parked the van behind an old building Prateek hid himself and his bike behind another building and call his bhayia again giving him the information. "Thank you god I love American tv and action movies" he said "God please protect my Aarti didi and I, please send the police quickly"
The police were contacted and a search begun for Aarti and her kidnappers all the parents were frantic with worry for their children safety. The police interrogated the two caught men who were very uncooperative in the beginning until they were placed in a holding cell with a mad dangerous man who beat them up thinking that they were terrorist out to kill him, The two criminals begged for mercy and they sold out their boss but they had no information on who ordered the kidnapping.
The police raided the hide out of the boss man and another group surrounded the building in which Aarti was kept they rescued Aarti and apprehended the two kidnappers Pankaj and Akash accompanied the police on their rescue mission they stayed in the background with Prateek out of harms way. When Aarti was safely removed from the building Akash, Pankaj, and Prateek ran towards her Akash held his sleeping daughter in his loving arms. they took her to the nearest hospital for a quick physical. The doctor said she was unharmed but drugged she has to sleep it off so he recommended that she be admitted to be closely monitored for any undue reactions to the drugs
Her moms and the rest of the family made their way to the hospital when they received the news each giving thanks to god for her safety. Akash updated them regarding Aarti's health status, he asked SP if they told the boys SP said yes and then he updated them when Aarti was found unharmed, the boys will be arriving the following evening a day earlier than planned for their two week break.
In London
Yash and Aaman had just returned home after their final exam Radha ma had snacks prepared for them which they sat down to enjoy when they got the call from SP informing of Aarti's kidnapping, Yash became stunned he dropped the phone Aaman noticed his Bhai ran to him took the phone and spoke to SP. Radha got scared seeing Yash's condition tears were freely rolling down his face and he slumped to the floor she ran to him and held him close to her heart comforting the young man them he screamed Aarti name repeatedly Aaman rushed across to his bhai he too was crying but he needed to be strong for his buddy all he could do was to try and reassure him that the police will find her on time that their brave little Prateek is following the vehicle god will be on their side everything will be find. Radha too tried her best to comfort her boys in the short time that she knew them she had developed motherly love for them. The wait seemed endless but it was only about three then they got the message that she was safe in the hospital the kidnappers were caught. Yash wanted to leave for India immediately but the only flight they could get was for the following day.
Then he got the call from Akash uncle "Yash beta are you and Aaman okay?" "Ji uncle how is my Aarti has she said anything?"
"No beta they drugged her the doctor kept her under observation for the night they say she has to sleep off the drugs, but she was not harm in any other way."
"Beta don't worry our girl is fine have faith in god he kept her safe for us, and beta our baby Prateek is a hero I am so proud of him"
"Ji uncle but when I return home he is going to get a good scolding from me he could of died during the chase playing hero"
"Yash beta Prateek love his didi so much he did not think rationally that he placed himself in harm's way your bauji give him a good scolding for his recklessness but we all love appreciate and are extremely proud of his quick thinking and actions; because of his brave moves we have our daughter safe with us. The Sharmas, Aripta and I can never have enough praise of love for him. Beta you and Aaman get some rest and travel safe until we will meet tomorrow."
Aripta sat next to Aarti who was sound asleep she touched her child's head loving stroking her cheeks "I could of lost you again but this time it could have been forever the last time I left you at the orphanage for your own safety and I received frequent updates and pictures of your life that your papa and I treasured, then with the Sharma's I could visit and speak and hold you my baby, now you are living with us and look what happened those B*****DS tried to take you away permanently away from us. I hope they are caught and left to rot in jail"
The sharma ladies and the Scindhia ladies stayed in the room they too did not want to be far away from their child. These ladies were a great source of comfort to each other praying and each taking a turn to sit and talk to a sleeping Aarti rubbing her head, face hands and legs. Mansi was examined by the doctors and she had a fractured left foot she would be in crutches for a couple of months, but she too did not want to be far from her Aarti di.
In the police station the Sharmas men, Scindhia men and Akash were there with the commissioner of police; they did good today the captured a major crime gang but the boss was a hard man to break he refused to disclosed who ordered the kidnapping, but he did say that they were ordered to keep the girl until they received the ransom then shoot and kill her in the presence of her father. That simply made statement lead them to believe that the hit was ordered by someone who knows or suspect that Aarti is Akash's daughter. They were able to narrow down their suspect list as to who would gain by killing an innocent girl. They needed hard evidence the boss man had to talk and give up his employer's name so they made a deal with the man, protective custody for him and his family in return for information, the man feared for his family's life so he agreed to the deal. This crime lord had plenty to say about many well-known public figures in Bhopal, and Delhi both in politics and business, he also mention Akash's relatives and the names of another gang in Delhi that works with them. The evidence all pointed to the chacha and his son they would be arrested but the real evil the true boss his wife the evil chachi will be free.
