Chapter 7

Actions Interactions Reactions...

Rajjoo was with Anjor and the home phone rang suddenly, she came down to pick the phone..

The person spoke hoarsely, await your death!

Rajjo was shocked... The haveli doors were locked...She tried calling Chakor but could not reach her.

She tried Raaghav too but went unheard!!

Whats happening? Who is that??? What shall I do?

She went upstairs to her room and tried to latch the door, but in her palpitation it was not...

The haveli went dark!

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

Chakor was driving back speedily!!! Non stop praying, crying...Chandujiii please help save Rajoo I donot want her to die because she helped me!!! Please!!! you took away my friend Vivaan, You separated Suraj and now this innocent girl who helped me and came trusting me!!! No I will not allow anything harm Rajoo!!!

Her car stopped suddenly, brakes rammed, she came out ran ran with all her might, praying, profusely crying... she was few kms away AZ, a small light...in the darkness, a tea shop... she ran breathless... Kaaka please can I make a call urgent, somebody's life at risk. She made a desperate call to Haveli... It was dead, Daak baaba, She made the next call quickly... and ran ran towards haveli

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

Raaghav was drunk but suddenly saw the phone with so many missed calls... he was dizzy but the moment he saw Maidam Ji all his nasha came down, Oh my god why did Maidam call, Rajjoo has called too...arey this Rajjoo will go on and on with her non stop bashing of me... but why Maidam. Is Anjor not well??? Oh god if something happens Maidam will start off her gyan nonstop... But why am I worrying about Anjor, I am going to take the money and leave but this young girl and the way she loves me like her daddy and does things to me make me indeed feel happy... and Maidam... why I donot want to leave them?... though I cannot be here as Suraj... too many thoughts he started walking towards Haveli which was few kms away

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

She ran and there were few goons who were in the dark... They Saw chakor running and started chasing her... she ran until she rammed into something hard, jolted but something came around her hard tight... what is it... she gasped...

He was walking while something came ramming into him, he jolted with the sudden hit but unknowingly he just held his arms around tight...

She is small, the face covered with the strands, and her chest was breathing heavy, holding on to him as though everything was depending on this hold...her face into his chest heaving heavy...

He balanced, the moonlight was on her face... He held her tight... who is this but she is fitting into me perfectly... Some thing flashed, he lifted her chin, the breeze moved her strands but still her face not clear... He pushed her strands carefully to see her ... Maidam... His voice was shocked!! Eyes wide open... He cupped her, shook her... are you alright? What happened? Why are you running like this... holding her close to him...

She came to her senses, Raaghav, she withdrew herself... woh Raaghav, where were you,? you have no responsibility. ? I was calling you so many times, rajjooo sh...eee ... she was agonizing...

He just held her looked into her eyes... Maidam breathe yourself, stay calm what happened... Just then the goons came closer to them...

Arey leave her to us...and tried to pull her hand... One hard hit on that goon right on his face, holding her close to him. Dare touch her...that roar brought shudders not only to them but to Chakor too!!!!

Why? Is she your yaara, the others laughed... No ... bahutey keemthi heera Bey... his eyes was red with anger...fisted his hands

Chakor was shocked... his hold on her was tight...but she stopped him.. Raaghav this is not the time to fight, please let us go to save Rajjooo... she is in danger...

He just swirled and knocked the other two and both ran from there towards the Haveli... don't worry Maidam, nothing will happen... But Raaghav why did you hit them so hard, if something happens to them, arey Maidam why are you worried about the goons too, you are worried about everyone like Jagatmata!!! She stunned, stopped for a second she lost herself... Jagatmata!!!... He stopped looked back, arey madiam what happened??? She asked what did you say??? Arey madam chalo, you are worried about everyone! No ...that word???? Haan Jagat mata...worried about those children, worried about Rajjoo, worried about that Rohit and Aaakash, somehow I am not liking those bandikoots... she was confused!!! But again the blast came in front of her eyes!!!

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

Rajjoo was hiding in the dark, the intruder did not speak but was masking himself and was walking towards her... as it was dark he stumbled on the table... Rajjoo was terribly paranoid she could hear her heart beat... the door was not locked so he came inside... She shouted who are you... she ran blindly and came down the stairs...she was in the hallway running towards the haveli doors in the dark... He held her from behind and was about to ...

The lights came up with a loud gun shot... Rajjoo screamed...

She opened her eyes... KY was standing infront of her, a lady constable was holding her, don't worry we are here... he was there with the police... but the invader had smartly escaped...

Chakor and Raaghav rushed into the haveli hearing the gun shot they froze...

Teju and Jyoti were also reaching then.

Rajjo was completely shatterd, extremely shocked... She just clinged to Chakor and was crying terribly.

Chakor was calming her, she too shocked, her own haveli is not safe... By the time Rohit and Aakash was also there. Aakash was terribly shocked upset... He asked the inspector to find the culprit soon how can he try to stab her!!! Raaghav asked how do you know he tried to stab her, it was a gun shot...??? Aaakash said he saw the knife in the hallway on the diya near the Bolenath idol... Inspector went and took the knife which was burning in the diya.

KY said Chakorji... good you called at the right time (chakor called KY from the tea stall after calling Haveli) and I alerted my beats here who told me that the Haveli was dark, I knew something was wrong so rushed at the right time but unfortunate could not nab the culprit... Thank you Inspector... she was thinking... who knew that Rajjoo was alone with Anjor in the Haveli... Also Chakorji the culprit is not easy as he has smartly burnt the murder weapon to erase the fingerprints...

Something is fishy but unable to lay my hands...

Rajjoo could not control herself. Didi I called you so many times, but your phone was switched off, I was so scared. I called this stupid fellow Raaghav too, he too did not bother to answer my call... Yes I argue with you but cant you take my call what would have happened if I was killed... She was shireking unknowingly what she was saying... Raaghav... who is that?...all were shocked... Teju was completely shocked whats this Chakor...?. Why is she calling Suraj as Raaghav!!!?

Chakor and Raaghav were shocked so was Rajjooo, biting her tongue what have I done, just then Girija and Leela entered and stumped hearing this...

Chakor started crying uncontrollable... The whole Haveli , the police all were like statue... She went down narrating the story of what happened in Dharampura...her heart broke completely... while all were numb listening to her... Teju was completely shocked... She said yes Suraj left saving me, how can he leave me to die as I was the one stepping on the mine... He asked me to promise to take care of Anjor, I had no other option as Anjor was very critical so asked Raaghav who was looking like Suraj to act as Suraj... without Suraj this MS and Sindoor is too heavy for me but what should I do to save my daughter..(she briefed her meeting in a nutshell) Raaghav felt something cringing his heart, she is crying, why I am unable to see her crying, I want to rush to her and stop her crying... He left from there, terribly confused but when she was into me why I felt that my world was clinging to me???? He saw the pic on his phone which he had saved from the room... She is fitting into Suraj perfectly...but so was she into...

Mummaaa Anjor called shocking all... whats happening...why is the Police here... Why is Rajjoo didi crying... And you did not notice your MS has fallen down??

Chakor quickly gathered, told nothing Rajjoo did get scared of darkness and Police is here as Suraj is helping him in some case... Anjor came down made Chakor tie the MS... Chakor asked Girija and Leela to always stay with Rajjoo and not to leave her alone... Raaghav was watching it from far with the phone in his hand... She is handling everything alone...

Teju did not speak anything but went into her room completely shocked...For she was also worried about Anjor...the only heir of Rajvanshi pariwaar... She looked into Bolenaths idol...

Chakor was crying after putting Anjor to sleep... Whats in store? How am I going to handle this?... She walked outside...?.

What safety I should provide for Rajjoo. KY called Chakor... Chakorji don't worry I am able to understand... I have placed my force in plain clothes around Haveli and we shall nab the culprit...

He walked into the room looking at Anjor sleeping, placing his hands on her forehead. He smiled still teared... I am just admiring your mumma, I wish I am really Suraj... I donot want to leave you both for I want to protect you both forever... He kissed her forehead and left the room not knowing that Chakor was seeing and so was Teju too but there was the other two eyes too... The masked man said to himself... she is not easy... I have to get rid of Raaghav and Anjor too...

She walked to the balcony, crying looking at Chanduji...

She glimpsed her holding him, his arms around her tight and that kiss on Anjor's forehead...but again jolted as the blast blurred again...

Suraj why did you leave me...?.How will I manage this all alone? Have you really left me!! I have cheated all, the mom about her son, the daughter about her father... Daak baba... I feel all alone...??? She did not realise there was another soul looking at Chanduji , I have seen you many times but never felt like how I feel now. Why am I seeing Maidam in you!!

There were hands on her shoulder... she gasped... Teju was there... shocked... she said ma... teju did not say anything she just hugged her tight tearing herself apart...

Ma turns mai...

The reveal of truth... to Anjor...

Will evil escape....?

Chapter 8

Battle of emotions the evil on anvil...

There were hands on her shoulder... she gasped... Teju was there... shocked... she said ma... teju did not say anything she just hugged her tight tearing herself apart...

Ma turns mai...

The reveal of truth... to Anjor...

Will evil escape...?

Teju just hugged Chakor, make her place her head on her... Took her to her room, just speaking nothing..

She said Maaa... I am so sor..rr..yy... I ju...st... lo...st every..thing... I chea...ted you... Cheat..ed everyone... but

Teju allowed her to cry, shed all her bottled up emotions... all her tears... she wanted to see the real Chakor... Not the one who had buried everything within her and was fighting for everyone and safeguarding the heir, their priced possession of the their Khandaan. Teju was also crying profusely but holding chakor in her arms for she needed her Mai and not Ma.

Maa... please speak something...how can I ask you forgiveness...

Chakor... Beta I am shocked, I cannot believe that my Suraj is not among us. I feel guilt that as a mother I could not sense any danger when he was in danger. I feel guilty of not understanding your agony, your pain. Chakor was surprised... Maaa but...

Teju continued, yes I was upset, angry shocked but I did not want to do the mistake by blaming you. which I did when you got separated brutally seven years from your life.

Beta, I can understand the pain you would have gone through, the agony you are going through to take care of Anjor, the pain you are enduring in staying with a stranger for the peace of the house and also shouldering the responsibility. How can Bolenath be cruel to us. They both wept together cursing their luck.

But beta how will you reveal this to Anjor that Raaghav is not Suraj??? How will she handle it?

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

Anjor suddenly woke up Dadeee, she shouted... palpitating, Raaghav ran towards... Chakor and Teju too rushed but before they could reach Raaghav was there next to Anjor..

He just hugged her, gave her water and asked, Anjor did you have a bad dream? I thought you were very bold, but what happened you got scared?? You are a bold daughter of a bold mumma na...

She smiled, dadee haan dadee I am the bold daughter of bahadhur mumma aur Sher papa. I love you so much... he lay next to her, caressing her forehead and slowly patting her... Dadee you know my friends were telling me that you now a days are doing my hair braid well... thank you daddy... He smiled and closed her eyes and asked her to sleep, but dadee why are you not singing the lohri anymore!!!

He was shocked... Haa yes I will, for now my throat is not well... Anjor lay on his chest and had a peaceful sleep...

Raaghav looked at the pics of him along with Anjor which was taken recently and told to himself just to be with you and Maidam I will learn not only Lohri but everything what Suraj did to help your mumma out!!!

He did not move as he was scared his movement would wake the little one... she had a smile on her lips unaware of the forcoming trouble.

Teju and Chakor were silently witnessing it, Chakor had a smile with tears in her eyes. Teju asked Chakor to come along with her.

She said Chakor I am really surprised as how Raaghav has become an integral part of Anjor and this family.

Sometimes I feel he is indeed Suraj...

Maa, Chakor said no ma he cannot be my Suraj for I saw him fly away in front of my eyes... and no one can take his place... No she shook her head vigorously, shoving away her emotions battling... She felt somewhere something is happening but unable to grapple with it.

Teju told Chakor, I am worried about you, I have not seen a smile on your face for quite a long time and you do smile unknowingly when you see Raaghav with Anjor. Why can't you give a space for Raaghav, I see his eyes shine with brightness when he looks at you and he has very high respects for you.

No No No she shouted... it just can't be... I am Suraj's Chakor and will always remain his...

Beta, am not forcing you but whatever your decision is your Maa will always be by you. But take a decision thinking about Anjor... She left the room.

She met Raaghav who was just coming out of Anjor's room and asked him to come along with her...

She thanked Raaghav for taking care of Anjor as Suraj... Her eyes was filled with tears... Raaghav felt somewhat... he said amma please donot make me humble by thanking me...

She said that she will be happy if he would make his family here. Raaghav was surprised but at the same time his heart was indeed feeling happy... Why when amma speaks I feel sober and calm... But make this his family?? Meaning... She shared her thoughts of him being in Chakor and Anjor's life as she has seen his eyes shine looking at Chakor and his respects for her... He could not deny but did not say anything... He went thinking...

He tried to sleep but again the young lady was holding on to him and crying inconsolable ... he woke up perspiring!!! My head is breaking. Who is that young lady! Why is she crying?

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

Chakor was looking through the window into the sky...

Whats happening... why is ma saying that Raghav is having feelings for me.. No No that's wrong... I am a withered flower and only bloom for my Suraj. He has his life and he cannot spoil his future... I have to do something...

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

Raaghav and Chakor dropped Anjor at school as she was insisting that they should drop and was asking why is that they both are always far away and not together, for which Chakor said that she is bit preoccupied about the little girls in the hospital.

Raaghav and Chakor were returning back and on the way, KY called Chakor and spoke due to which Chakor's face turned white. She could not believe...

She was shocked... Raaghav noticed and stopped the car. They got down, he asked her what was worrying her, she wasn't responding and he held her hands and turned her. She got to her senses, and said Raaghav please leave my hand... I am very troubled...

He said Maidam, I donot want to leave your hand. She immediately got on her guards, Raaghav what are you doing leave me... Please don't think anything beyond as you are here to act as Suraj and once Anjor is fine you may leave as you can take care of youor future.

He spoke those words which was boggling him. Maidam why are you saying this to me... Sorry but I know whats bothering as amma told me. I know it is difficult to move on with me... she was shocked!!! What? he knows!!!

Yes but why are you rude to me... He held both her hands and told her with respects, Maidam I have been through so many emotions within me..when I see your eyes I loose myself in those eyes.

I have lost myself when you rarely smile and I want you to smile more and more.

I want to beat and thrash those who wants to trouble you as I want you to be safe.

She was shocked... What is he saying?... he wants to thrash others who harm me...

I have lost myself in Anjor and have started treating her as my own daughter.

Noo Raaghav, please donot develop feelings as I know you respect me, you are very innocent and pure. You have helped me but I will not be to move on with you and I donot want you to spoil your future.

He said, neither do I want a seperate future ... Neither do I want to move away from you, neither do I want to move away from Anjor. Neither do I want to live a life without you and Anjor anymore. I will not compel you but you cannot compel me not to love you or Anjor as my heart beats only for you both... I cannot move away too..

She was surprised... He keeps me high above himself... Like my Suraj... face can be same but how his emotions are also similar, can it be??... How is that I too feel safe in his arms... No No No I should be strong... This cannot be developed... I have to tell Anjor...Tell her the truth...

She ran to the car, he followed her...

He said Maidam, now do not think of anything please. I will not treadpass your way. Tell me what did the inspector tell you, why were you so shocked...

She realized that KY called, yes oh god, yes, he said that through his intelligence reports he has found that Rajeshwari's one more son is there and he was the one who injected the girls. One of the little girls has identified his eyes and his eyebrows having a cut rather a birthmark.. If he is the one how did he know everything about our house, that Rajjoo was alone, about the blast and that Raaghav is Suraj... She spoke all her points... Also how did he know my number and that I was in Lucknow...

Raaghav was listening, thinking and suddenly both came out together.. then someone close to Haveli is the culprit... Or helping the culprit...

She remembered the culprit saying that he will tell the truth to Anjor too...

They both rushed back to school to pick Anjor.

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

A man was near the school showing a pic on his phone to the passers by and also to the students there. The man approached Anjor and showed the pic.. Beta do you know him, he is my friend but he is suddenly not to be seen. Anjor saw the pic, she said this is my dadee, Suraj Rajvanshi...

The man said Suraj??? No he is my friend Raaghav...But wait Suraj??? I heard Suraj is no more and he died in a bomb blast???

Whaat??? Raaghav... Anjor head swirled, she fainted... At the same time Chakor and Raaghav saw Anjor fainting... they held her, she was palpitating... Mumma who is this... not my dadee... This uncle said he is Raaghav and daddee dadeee, she fainted...

Raaghav turned to see the man but he was nowhere to be seen...

The evil was witnessing all this with a smile...

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

They rushed Anjor to the hospital and she was in the ICU... Raaghav was furious, fuming and Chakor was lifeless, crying, Teju came rushing along with Aakash. She went inside the ICU.

He said bhabii what happened??? How did Anjor knew about Raaghav...

Raghav looked up his eyes was full of blood red... he was raging... Arey bandikoot thumhe kaisa patha Anjor ko mera barey me patha!!!

Chakor looked up with questioning eyes!!! But soon Doctor called her inside...

KY was on his way to the Haveli... he was carrying the sketch of the culprit as described by the girls. He was trying to reach Chakor but as she was inside the ICU, the signals were down

Raaghav held the collar of Aakash... Aakash smiled... as Raagahv was hit in his head from behind...

He was carried away in a van...

Chakor heard some noise... she saw a van leaving... and she saw...

Her eyes froze in shock...

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

The truth unveiled...

Will the diamond ring form...

Will the Sun rise...
