Chapter 13

Continued...

Six years later, Mumbai

A boy was reading something, when his mother entered the room. As soon as he felt his mother's presence he turned and hugged her tightly. She smiled and caressed his head.

"Kya hua baccha? Aaj aapni Ammi par itna pyaar kyu aa raha hai?", Mother asked teasingly but soon turned confused when he didn't replied.

She broke the hug and bend down. He looked towards the ground. She cupped his face and was shocked to see tears in his hair. He was hiding his tears.

(Yes, the lady was Hassena and the child was AnuSeena's son)

"Baccha aap ro kyu rahe ho?", Hassena asked worriedly.

"Ammi, aapko pata hai aaj na school mein sabhi aapni family ki baat kar rahe the, especially aapne aapne Baba ki. Voh keh rahe the ki unke baba unhe kitna pyaar karte hai, unhe ghumane le jaate hai, unke gifts dete hai, unse pyaar karte hai...", He said controlling his sobs but soon started crying.

"Ammi, sabhi ke paas unke baba hai sirf hamare paas kyu nahi hai?.. kya humne koi mistake kar di hai jiski vajah se voh humse dur chale gaye hai?", Ansh asked still crying.

Hassena felt hurt after seeing his condition. She caressed his back and kissed his hair multiple time to calm him down.

Hassena's pov

Ya Allah pata nahi yeh kis baat ki saja de rahe hai aap hamare bacche ko. Choti umar mein aapne Ammi Abbu mein se kisi ek ko kho dena kitna dardnak hota hai yeh hume acche se pata hai, aur shayad Anubhav ko bhi lekin kuch saalon pehle jo bhi hua uski saja iss Masum bacche ko bhugatni paad rahi hai. Anubhav please jaldi laut ayiye aur agar nahi aye toh, hume hi kuch karna padega!

Hassena's pov ended.

Ansh calmed down a little after sometime. Hassena broke the hug and wiped his tears, cupping his face. Ansh looked at his mother.

"Ammi, ek sawal puchu?"

"Baccha hume pata hai aap kya puchna chahte ho... Yahi na ki aapke baba kab ayenge toh uska jawab hamare paas nahi hai..."

"Nahi Ammi... Voh nahi .. mujhe yeh puchna tha ki Baba kya karte hai? Kaha gaye hai voh... Kya voh Mumbai mein hai? Bataeye na Ammi.... Aur agar aapne nahi bataya na toh main aapse hamesha ke liye Katti!", He said sadly.

Hassena nodded and pulled him in her lap. She protectively wrapped him in his arms.

"Aapke Baba... Bohot acche hai... Voh bhi hamari tarah ek Police Officer hai... Aur desh ki seva karte hai", Hassena stated smiling.

"Toh fir voh abhi kaha hai?", He asked.

Hearing his question, Hassena is lost in her thoughts. But is bring back by Ansh. She just kissed his forehead and put him to sleep. He tried asking few more questions but Hassena made him understand.

~~~~~~~~

Next day,

Hassena glanced at the clock. It was 4pm. She picked up the phone, but before she could do anything her mobile rang. It was her Ammi. She recieved the call.

"Ha Ammi, kya hua? Ansh ghar aa gaya kya? Jarur udas hoga", she chuckled sadly. "Usse phone dijiye hum usse baat karte hai", she said.

"Baat karne ke liye voh ghar toh hona chahiye na Hassena... Char baaj gaye hai, har din saade tin (3.30) tak ghar aa jaate hai, aaj pata nahi kyu nahi aya. Toh jaldi se uske school mein phone karke pata kar. Mujhe bohot chinta ho rahi hai."

"Par Maa toh haar din lene jaati hai Ansh ko school se. Aapne Maa ko phone kiya", Hassena asked worriedly.

"Kiya tha tab pata chala ki unka phone ghar par hi chut gaya hai. Tu jaldi se pata laga ki kaha hai voh dono, main tujhe thodi der mein phone karti hun", Ammi said concerned.

"Kaha gaya Ansh? Aur Maa voh kaha hai? Yah Allah! Hamare bacche ko aur Maa ko kuch hone maat dena", Hassena thought.

She was leaving her cabin when her mobile rang. She glanced at the mobile screen. 'Principal sir', flashed on the screen. She immediately recieved the call.

~~~~~~~~~

"May I come in sir?", Hassena asked the principal.

"Yes please come in"

Hassena walked over the principal's desk. She saw Maa sitting with Ansh in her lap. As soon as Hassena sat beside Maa, Ansh hugged her. She kissed his forehead, caressing his hair.

"Mrs Singh, mujhe aapse akele mein kuch baat karni hai. Aap jara mere saath chaliye", Principal said.

Hassena nodded and got up but Ansh held her more tightly.

"Ammi maat jaeye na...", Ansh pleaded. "Sab mujhe chod kar chale jayenge", he said sadly.

"Baccha hum baas thodi der mein aye. Aur aapko pata haina ki aapki Ammi aapse kitna pyaar karti hai, toh kyu jaegi aapko chod kar. Aap na thodi der aapni Dadi ke saath raho... Hum baas principal sir se baat karke aye...", Hassena said kissing her forehead.

Ansh nodded anyway.

~~~~~~~~~~

Principal and Hassena were walking in the corridor.

"Ansh ki halat kharab hoti jaa rahi hai Mrs. Singh.", Principal said. "Main jaanta hun ki aapke husband abhi mission par hai, isiliye voh ghar nahi aa rahe lekin iss baat ka Ansh par bohot bura asar paad raha hai, usse lag raha hai ki sab usse dur ja rahe hai.", Principal said.

"Hum sab samajhte hai sir lekin hum bhi kya kare? Panch saal se jyada ho gaye Anubhav mission par gaye hai. Lucknow mein toh sab kehte the ki Anubhav mission mein Shahid ho gaye.", She said and a tear rolled down her cheek.

"I am sorry!", Principal apologized.

"Koi baat nahi... Iss sab ki adat ho gayi hai... Hum jaante hai sir ki iss umar mein bacchon ko sabse jyada aapne Maa Baap ki jarurat hoti hai, par hamari kismat aaisi likhi hai khuda ne ki kya bataye. Hum puri koshish kar rahe hai sir... Hum jald se jald hamare husband ko dhundne ki koshish kar rahe hai...", Hassena said sadly. "Khair aab hum chalte hai sir... Hum aapki baat yaad rakhenge...", She said and smiled.

"Jarur...", Principal said. "Vaise Ansh par hamari najar hai Hassena Singh jara dhyaan rakhiye ga...", The principal said and walked a little forwad. "Yaad rakhiye ki iss school ke saare bacchon ki jimmedari aapke upar hai. Agar kuch bhi hua toh uski jimmedar aap hongi", Principal said and walked away.

Hassena looked at him. She immediately went behind him and took Abhas and Maa home.

~~~~~~~~~

At night,

Hassena locked the room of the study room. She pulled out a burkha. She immediately changed herself from her uniform to shirt and jeans. She wore the burkha and came down from balcony with the help of pipes. She sat in her car and drove away.

She stopped infront of a hospital. She got down and removed the burkha. She filled her gun with bullets and kept it in a brown colour jacket and wore it. She again wore the burkha and got into the building.

The place was in the city itself. ‘Central City Hospital’ was written on Building banner.

With help of wall, she walked and reached a gate where there was not any security guard. She immediately got in and walked into hallway and lobby hiding away from Night shift Doctors, nurses and wardboys.

She stood infront of a door. She opened it...
