“Kuch kaha aapne Miss Malik??” SO asked… “Ji Sir… Humne kaha Jazbat kamzori nahi hote hai… Aap galat hai Sir…” HM replied… All the team members except AS looked at SO and then towards HM… They were worried thinking SO would be furious now… “Aap toh aisa kahengi hi kyunki aap khud jazbati hai…” SO replied… “Jazbati toh aap bhi hai Sir…” HM replied calmly… “Kya bakwas kar rahi hai aap?? Mai bilkul bhi jazbati nahi hu…” he said angrily… “Hum prove kar sakte hai Sir…” she was still calm… The tension in the room was growing thicker with every passing second… NA was about to intervene but AS held her hand stopping her… She looked at him worried but he smiled at her with a slight nod… They looked ahead bracing themselves for the war of words…
“Nahi kar payengi aap kuch bhi saabit…” SO said… “Ek mauka toh dijiye Sir…” HM said… SO thought for a second and said, “Diya mauka… Lekin agar aap saabit nahi kar payi toh??” “Hum fir kabhi jazbaton ko importance nahi denge… Lekin agar saabit kar diya humne toh aap manenge ke Jazbat kamzori nahi hote hai…” she replied… “Manzoor…” he said… “Thik hai Sir… Hum aapse abhi kuch sawal puchenge… Umeed karte hai ke aap unka dil se jawab denge…” “Hmm… mai har sawal ka jawab dil se dunga…” SO replied and waited for her questions…
“Pehla sawal… Hum sab jab abhi laute toh aap ne hum sab ko daanta… Kyu Sir??” HM asked… “Kyunki mai Aap sab se ghussa tha… Aap sab ne mere orders nahi mane…” SO replied… “Ok… Lekin order naa manne se humara nuksan hota aapka nahi… toh aap ghussa kyu hue??” “Yeh kaisa sawal hai… Agar aap logon ko kuch ho jata toh?? It was dangerous out there… Mujhe aap sabki fiqr thi…” HM smiled… “Jab koi desh ke dushman ko aap ke officers apne mansubon mei nakamyab kar dete hai toh aap kya mehsus karte hai Sir??” she asked again… “Mujhe bohot Khushi mehsus hoti hai… aur saath hi saath bohot garv mehsus hota hai…” he replied… “Agla sawal… Aapka apne desh se kya Rishta hai??” she asked… SO chuckled… “Yeh bhi koi sawal hua? Sab jante hai mere liye desh Maa saman hai… Desh ke liye mai kisiki jaan le bhi sakta hu aur apni jaan de bhi sakta hu…” he replied… “Maan lijiye… agar kabhi koi dushman Desh ko target kare aur aapse kahe kuch aisa karne ko jo desh ke khilaf ho toh aap kya karenge Sir??” “Mai us insaan ko jaan se mar dunga…” “Kya aap kamzor pad jayenge us halaat mei??” she asked again… “Bilkul nahi… Aapne desh se pyaar karta hum mai… Kisi bhi halaat mei kamzor nahi padunga… Desh pe kahi koi aanch nahi aane dunga…” SO replied with determination…
“In sawalon se kaise saabit karengi aap??” SO asked with a smirk… “Sir hume saabit karne ki koi zaroorat hi nahi hai… Aapke jawabone already saabit kar diya hai…” HM replied with a smile… Everybody gave her a questioning look while AS just smiled at her… “Samjhate hai… Shuruwat se shuru karte hai… Aapne kaha ke aap hum sab se ghussa the kyunki humne aapke orders nahi mane… phela emotion ‘Ghussa’… Fir aapne kaha aapko hum sab ki fiqr thi… dusra emotion ‘Fiqr’…” she took a pause and looked at SO’s expressions changing… “Aapne kaha aapko Khushi hoti aur garv mehsus hota jab aapke officers koi mission complete karke aate… thisra emotion ‘Khushi’ aur chautha ‘Garv’… Aap desh ke suraksha ke liya jaan de sakte hai… panchwa emotion ‘Junoon’… Aapne kaha aap desh se pyaar karte hai… chhatha emotion ‘Pyaar’…” she continued… “Ghussa, fiqr, khushi, garv, pyaar, junoon ye sab emotions hai… Yani Jazbaat… Aur Sir aapne khud prove kar diya ke aapke andar yeh sabhi maujood hai… Iska matlab aap bhi jazbati hue…” She said with a smile… She had left everybody stunned in a matter of few minutes…
SO was at loss of words… HM’s words were just playing in his ears… He had lost… he we trying to formulate a comeback but wasn’t able to… HM realised his dilemma… “Sir… Yeh behas baad mei bhi ho sakti hai… Filhaal Naina aur Anubhav Sir ko First Aid ki zaroorat hai… Aapki permission ho toh hum jaa sakte hai??” she asked… She didn’t want SO to lose face in front of his subordinates… AS looked at her with pride… The other three smiled while SO nodded giving his permission… The team turned to leave, when… “Ek min Miss Malik… Ek sawal ka jawab dejiye fir aap jaa sakti hai…” SO said… Every stood their ground waiting for the question… “Aapne pucha ke mai kya karta agar kisine desh ko target karke mujhse kuch karwane ki koshish ki hoti toh… Aap bataiye Miss Malik agar aap is situation mei hoti aur Desh ki jagah aapka koi apna jisse aap pyaar karti hai target pe hota toh aap kya karti?? Us insaan koi bachane ke liye kamzor pad jati na aap??” SO asked… “Aisi situation abhi kuch ghanton pehle humne face ki thi Sir aur aapko bata sakte hai ke hum kamzor nahi pade the…” HM replied… “Matlab??” SO asked… “Sir mission mei ek aisa point aa gaya tha jab Shiva Reddy ne Naina aur Anubhav Sir ko gun-point pe rakha tha aur hume dhamka raha tha…” HM said… “Haan Sir… lekin Haseena madam ne immediately plan banaya aur hum dono ko bacha liya…” NA pitched in… “Iska mere sawal se kya lena dena??” SO asked… “Lena dena hai Sir…” HM replied… “Woh kaise??” SO asked again… “Woh aise ke hum Anubhav Sir se pyaar karte hai…” HM announced sending everyone in the room including AS in a shock… AS tried to stop her but this time NA held his hand and stopped him…
“Aapne sahi suna Sir… Mission Jeet ke baad hum Anubhav Sir ko bhula nahi paaye aur aaj bhi unse utni hi mohabbat karte hai… Shiva Reddy ho ya fir Tanya… humne kisko bhi unhe nuksaan pohchane nahi diya… Na hi Desh per koi aanch aane di…” HM continued… “Sir jazbaat insaan ko insaan banate hai… Kamzor nahi…” she said… SO nodded, “Jaa sakte hai aap log…” he said and the team marched away…
NA kept staring at HM while the nurses treated their wounds… “Kya baat hai Naina?? Aap hume aise kyu dekh rahi hai??” HM asked… “Aapne jo andar kaha kya woh sach hai??” NA asked… “Kya??” “Yahi ke aap pyaar karti hai…” NA couldn’t complete as HM signalled her to be silent… “Sach hai…” HM replied… “Kya unhe pata tha??” NA asked again… “Kisko??” HM asked… “psst… jinse aap pyaar karti hai unhe…” “Shayad…” HM replied and the nurses left them alone… NA jumped off the table and came closer to HM… “Aaram se… itni excited kyu hai aap??” HM asked… “Excited? aapko idea nahi hai mere andar is waqt kitni excitement hai… Aapko pata nahi hoga but Anubhav Sir ko mai apna bada bhai manti hu… kabse wait kar rahi thi ke unki shaadi ho jaye aur mujhe ek Bhabhi mil jaye… But humare profession mei kaha kisiki shaadi hoti hai… lekin aapka confession sunke mujhme firse umeed jaagi hai…” NA said all excited but soon her face fell… “Kya hua?? Abhi toh aap itni excited thi…” HM asked… “Mai soch rahi hu aap us pathar ko pighlaoge kaise?? Aaj tak bohot ladkiyon ne try kiya hai but koi asar nahi hua…” NA said frowning… HM laughed heartily at NA’s comment… “Aap kitne aage ka soch rahi hai… Relax… Aur Anubhav Sir pathar nahi hai… Kitne ache hai bichare…” HM said… “Ohhhh… bichare kitne ache hai… Anubhav Sir ki burai suni nahi ja rahi aapse… Kya baat hai!!” NA teased… “Bas… chaliye abhi… aage kya orders hai pata karte hai…” HM said and left the room followed by an excited NA…
