"Maa ji...(maa hummed) ek sawal hai agar aapki permission hai toh puchhe?" Haseena asked maa. "Puchho...!"
"Umm...sir aur KS ke beech aisa kya hua ki sir unse itni nafrat karte hai?" She asked. "Mera Anu chah kar bhi kabhi uski behan se nafrat nhi kar payega...bahot pyaar karta hai woh Karishma se, bas thoda gussa hai usse...!" Maa replied with a smile while pouring milk in the saucepan. "Kyu?"
"Woh darasal Karishma ke ek jhooth ki wajah se Anu,...Maaa....(he called maa, coming to them) kya hua?" Maa asked him. "Chot par dawa lagani..!"
"Hum kheer bana raha hai, ek kaam karo...Haseena jara iski madat toh kar do beti...!" Anubhav and Haseena looked at each other. "Rehne dijiye hum khud kar lenge...!" He said nonchalantly. "Zid mat Tu bekar ki, Haseena tum help kardo iski aur jyada bole toh batana mujhe..!" Haseena looked at him and then nodded. They went out from the kitchen. "Hey banke bihari! kuch aisa chamatkaar kar dijiye ki mera Anu bhi Haseena se pyaar karne lage...!" Maa prayed.
Anubhav's room
She helps him take off his shirt and then begins to apply the ointment, she was constantly watching his stitches because they have already dissolved compared to the stitches on the other person's wound. She deliberately pressed it but he didn't react, he didn't even hissed.
"Sir...(he hummed) aapke stitches toh thik ho chuke hai...!" She said questioningly. "Hume pata hai, bas ghaav dhool ki wajah se thodi jalan aur khujli ho rahi hai isliye marham lagane ko kaha warna avshyakta nhi hai ab dawa ki...!" He answered.
"Par sir kisi bhi human ke body stitches itni jaldi nhi dissolve hote par aapke stitches toh dissolve ho chuke hai balki uske nishan bhi mitna shuru ho chuke hai...!" She said questionably. "Aisa nhi hai...har insaan ki apni apni rog pratirodhak kshmta hoti hai...!"
"Kya hoti hai?" She asked in confusion. "immunity hoti hai jo alag alag tarah se kaam karti hai.!" He answered "Okay par phir bhi...!"
"Sahayta ke liye dhanyvaad, ab aap ja sakti hain....!" He politely said her to leave. She hummed and left the room.

Police Headquarter, Lucknow
"Jai Hind Sir...!" Haseena saluted CS. "Jai Hind miss Malik, aaiye baithiye...!" He gesture at the chair which was opposite to him. She sit down on the chair, keeping her cap on table. "Aapne hume kis liye yaad kiya sir?"
"Do minute wait kariye..!" She hummed. "Waise sir ek baat puchhe?" She said. "Puchhiye.!"
"Yeh Anubhav sir kaun se department I mean position par hai ki aap bhi unhe salute karte hai...!" She asked. "I don't know...hume bas upar se order mila tha ki hamare koi senior aa rahe hai jinke order hume follow karne honge aur dhyan rakhna hoga ki unhe koi problem na ho...!" CS replied. "Aapko bhi nhi pata unke bare mein?" CS nods negatively.
"Kya karengi aap hamare bare mein jaan kar miss Malik....!" She gulped as she heard his husky voice. "Sir aap yahan?"
"Humne hi aapko bulaya hai miss Malik...!" He said while sitting next to her on chair. "Kis liye sir?"
"Us aadmi se puchhtachh karne ke liye, chuki aap case lead kar rahi hai hamare under isliye aapka sath rehna zaroori hai.." He answered. "Sir....woh aadmi kuch bolne ka naam hi nhi le raha hai..!" CS interrupted. "Hum bhi dekh lete hai kab tak nhi bolta...!" He said with a smirk.
Interrogation Room
The caller is silently sitting on the chair in front of Anubhav while Haseena is watching them through the camera.
"Sir main sach kah raha hoon main nhi janta ki kaun hai woh aadmi..!" The caller said, while Anubhav is silently listening him. "Deepak naam hai na tumhara..?" He asked calmly. "Ji sir...!
" Tum jante ho kisi jurm ko karna jitna jurm hota hai utna bada jurm usme sath dena bhi hota hai...tum naam nhi bataoge toh tumhe us aadmi ke hisse ki saza bhi adalat de degi magar bata diya toh das saal ki saza paanch saal ho sakti hai...!"
"Sir main sach mein nhi janta...!" Deepak said sadly. "Teen mahine pehle hum mumbai gye the pata hai waha ka vada paav aur hari mirchi badi famous hai....humne yahan tumhare liye banawaya hai (he said to Deepak), Miss Malik jara lekar aaiye toh...!"
With in few minutes Haseena come with a plate of vada paav and keep it on the table.
"Pure das vada paav hai jisme se 9 mein teekhi hari mirch hai aur ek main truth serum, sirf ek mauka haihai tumhare paas...dekhte hai sach bolte ho ya tapdte ho...!"
"Truth serum...? " Deepak said in fear.
"Haan lekin yaad rahe hai yeh serum peene ke baad tumhara sach jhooth hua toh phir humse tumhe yamraaj bhu nhi bacha payenge...! " He said with dangerous smile. Deepak gulped down in fear. "Uthao ek bada paav...!" Deepak looked at the bada paav and then Anubhav, after ten minutes he took a bada paav and ate it.
"Kaisa tha?" Anubhav asked. "Bahut tasty tha...!" The man replied. "Teekha nhi tha?" Haseena asked. "Nhi..!"
"Matlab tumne truth serum wala vada paav kha liya, ab kya hoga tumhara...!" Haseena said with fake concern.
Deepak looked at Anubhav, who is folding his shirt sleeves.
"Kasam se sir...main nhi janta hoon us insaan ko mujhe sirf itna pata hai ki woh aapko maar kar apne bade bhai ki maut ka badla lena chahta hai...!" He said in one go. "Tumhe yeh baat kaise pata?"
"Woh ek din usne jab call kiya tha tab kisi aur se baat karte huye usne yeh sab kaha tha aur maine sun liya...."
"Toh ab tak sach kyu nhi bola tha?" Haseena asked angrily. "Kyunki sach bolte hi woh log mujhe aur meri family ko maar denge..!" He starts crying bitterly. "Sorry sir par maine kuch bhi apni marzi se nhi kiya... Majboori thi..!"
Anubhav clenched his fist and then Deepak got a punch in the face, which shocked Haseena. "Jhooth se nafrat hai hume." He said angrily. "Sir shant ho jaiye, yeh is baar shayad sach bol raha hai sir...!"
"Nhi miss Malik, yeh phir se jhooth bol raha hai...hawaldaar...ise tab tak maro jab tak yeh sach na bole, bas yaad rahe hai marna nhi chahiye..!" He commanded to constable and then left from there.
At Home
"Kya hua Haseena yeh Anu itna gusse mein kyu hai?" Maa asked Haseena. "Woh hua yun ki (she told everything to maa) bas isliye sir gusse mein hai, hum baat karte hai ek baar sir se"
"Nhi abhi uske paas mat jana...warna sara gussa tum par nikal jayega...!"
"Par maa....! Anu jab kisi ko ek mauka deta hai aur uske baad bhi insaan jhooth bolta hai toh use bahut gussa aata hai aur us gusse ko sivaye uske koi nhi kabbu kar sakta..!"
"Itna gussa, kyu?" She asked. "Bataya tha na Karishma ke ek jhooth ki wajah se Anu usse nafrat karta hai...bas wahi wajah hai...!"
"Aisa kya jhooth bola tha KS ne?" She asked questionably. "Usne kisi aur ko bachane ke liye sara ilzaam Anu par laga diya, galati Anu ki nhi thi phir bhi use saza mili...jiski wajah se uske sapne adhure rah gye..!" Maa said sadly.
"Aisa kya hua tha aur kya jhooth bola tha KS ne?" Haseena asked.
"Aaj se 13 saal pehle ki baat hai, Karishma kuch 16 saal ki thi aur Anu 19 ka...dono bhai behan mein bahot pyaar tha par us din...(maa paused), us din kya maa?" HM asked.
"Us din ek aisa toofan aaya jisne is rishte ko bikher kar rakh diya....
