The Invisible String(Complete)

Painted in red.

Someone knocked on the lavish bungalow's giant wooden door, until the door was opening the pair of eyes of standing figure roamed on beautifully maintained container garden, the bloomed flowers were withering with last rays of sun for that day. 

A man in his 30's opened the door wearing a subtle smile on his face.

The dazzling lights of that lavishly furnished hall doesn't spread amiable vibes, She could feel her heart shuddering more with her every step marching  away from that door.

Here in RC Mansion.

Batuk banged in Anirudh's study with a thud, making the glass of water falling on the floor, breaking the glass into pieces. 

"Batuk aaram se, dekho kya kiya tumne, Shukr hai papers bach gaye mere, jao Bihari ko Bol kar aao yeh saaf karne k liye"

"Dada!!"

"Kya dada!! tumhe pata hai na mujhe gandgi bilkul pasand nahi hai"

"Dada woh toh mai bol dunga jate jate, par Boudi kaha hai ?""

"Kya!! I mean Q, aise Q puch rahe ho?, Bondita sham me Aprajita ko lekar garden me jati na thode der k liyye wahi hogi jao, aur use zyada pareshan mat karna yeh MLA wala case waise hi hum dono ko bahut pareshan kar chuka hai"

"Dada woh hum sabko pata hai par Boudi waha nahi hai... mai School se aane k bad garden me hi gaya tha dono se milne, woh kuch khilone lekar aaya tha apni laadli bhatiji k liye"

"Batuk Masti nahi!!" Anirudh doesn't fall in his traps easily now, because he and Bondita are mostly in same team and whenever Bondita needs any out of the box favor from her Patibabu... she makes a plan with batuk...

"Dada sach me...mai sach kah raha hu. Shotti! Boudi ki kasam" 

"Kya mazak kar rahe ho Batuk ? Abhi ek ghante pahle meri baat hui thi Bondita se ki woh aa rahi hai ghar, aur court se ghar aane me aadhe ghante lagte, aur phir apne daily routine k hisab se woh Aprajita ko pyaar karke aur sula k ya toh kitchen me jati hai ya study me aati hai, tumne kitchen me check kiya??"

"han dada aur Aprajita ko bhi Som dada khila rahe hai...isiliye toh mai Boudi ko dhoondte dhoondte yaha aaya hu"

Anirudh left the other papers unattended and Batuk followed his suite to telephone. Anirudh dialed the numbers of their offices and all possible places where she could have gone. and with every answer sheer gloominess was plastering on his face. he descended the stairs in a jiffy calling their family members to gather in hall.

Everyone assembled in the hall, with n no. of questions on their faces.

"Anirudh!! kya hua itna pareshan Q lag rahe ho ?"

"Kaka!! woh sab baad me, pahle meri baat suniye ...Woh Bondita.." (his voice was chocking)

Som handed Aprajita to Koyli and shook Anirudh's shoulder..

"dada, kya hua Boudi ko, maine kaha tha na aapse Boudi ko sab kuch btane ko ...aapne btaya tha na use" (He almost cried while questioning Anirudh)

"Han Som maine sab bta diya tha use call par aur usne kaha bhi tha ki woh hamare plan ko khariz karte hue sham meus darinde k ghar nahi jayegi, hum koi dusra rasta khojenge uski kartuto ko logo k samne lane ka" (Anirudh said remembering Bondita's word)

"Dada, par pahle toh Boudi lunch time me jane wali thi waha yeh sham Q kah rahe hai aap?"

"Som! woh Bondita batayi ki subah yaha se jane k baad MLA ka call aaya tha ki uske meetings ki vajah se usne lunch ki bajay 4 baje k around aane kaha tha" 

"Kaka, Batuk, Dada jitne jaldi ho ske jitne, jitne powerful logo ko inform kar sakte hai kariye..., Dada police ko call kijiye apne aur dosto ko call kijiye aur us darinde k ghar chaliye....aaj hum use range hath pakdenge, ho na ho yeh usi ghinoune aadmi ki harkat hai, mai daave se kahta hu jab Boudi nahi gai hogi 4 baje waha, usi ne yeh bahut oonchi harkat karne ki sochi hogi....Are jaiye aap log.... mera muh kya dekh rahe hai...sawal jawab baad me kar lenge abhi Boudi ki salamati sabse zarrorai hai." (Som said everything in one breath without breaking because this time he was firm in his decision not to spare that MLA )

Before anyone could proceed for anything telephone rang in the study for scattering the melancholy across the Haveli.

Anirudh rushed to pick up the call and heard Bondita other side, but not as usual chirping. her voice was shaking in fear and He could sensed that she has cried this much that her hands are shaking while holding Phone's receiver, her throat dried due to dehydration and could fall on the floor any minute.

The receiver got dropped from his hand, shaking him to the core as soon as he listened her stammering words.

Patibaaaabu!!!  PaaatiBabu Khooon....Khoon.... woh wo..mujhe mai...ap aaiye bacha lijiye.

((As soon as bondita sobbed saying Knoon, is mind could envisioned "Bondita, bleeding internally and her lower body painted dangerously red, flowing down to her lotus like feet struggling to move" remembering the conversation he had with SOM in the afternoon about what misery and unbearable pain that girl endured before leaving heavenly abode from this crucial world.))

Som, shook his to bring him in consciousness and Batuk attended the call as Bondita spoke few more words before falling on the floor, bringing tears in Batuk's eyes too.

"Dada, Batuk koi kuch bolega kya kaha Boudi ne?" Som inquired.

"Som dada, Anirudh dada chaliye yaha se aur kaka se koi kuch nahi karega...mai le chalta aap logo ko waha" 

Bofore leaving the study RC brother's trio clutched each other forming a huddle and 3 pairs of eyes bursting tears.

They walked out of RC Mansion informing Bihari and Koyli to take care of Aprajita and Kaka until they came back.

Finding the unfortunate situation engulfing his beloved family. Kaka took her granddaughter in his lap and fixated his seat in Dugga Ma's temple.

While Batuk was driving Som's mind started recalling the glimpse of that horrific incident which took place on the same day when Samiksha and he got married.
