two stories of marriage 2

chapter 56

The Delhi Police car stopped outside Venkateshwar Hospital, as Abhijeet and Pasi rushed out to get inside the hospital immediately.

They came inside and immediately asked for Bani Khanna, only to be directioned to the second floor ICU, as they ran there immediately.

Only, then, did it happen, that they reached to a crying purvi, worried kavin, tensed dushyant, and a shocked ishita. But there was a man that they didn't recognize, a complete stranger, held by nihaal, as a puzzled abhijeet walked over to them.

"acha hua aap aa gaye.." commented dushyant, as he walked over to the suspicious stranger.

"yeh aadmi, isse mere bete ne ghar se bhaagte hue pakda, khoon se sane chaaku ke saath..." stated dushyant, as he handed over a knife that was wrapped with a cloth.

"yeh bhi gir gaya tha isse...bhaagte hue..." handed over ishita a lighter to abhijeet, as he glared at the two objects in his hand before looking at the three of them.

"hum bani ke bayaan ke bina kuch nahi kar sakte...chahe aap joh marzi karle..." stated abhijeet, still very suspicious off them.

Just then, purvi stepped in, teary eyed, weeping badly.

"uski bahaut buri haalat hai sir! Iss aadmi ne uska gala hi kaat diya...upar se woh aag....bahaut buri haalat hai uski...woh toh sarr bhi nahi hilaskati haan ya naa mein, bolegi kya...aap isse sach ogalvayi na..." purvi seemed quite melodramatic from her usual self, which was well, a little jarring to say the least.

Abhijeet stared at the man, who stood with his head down, as he looked over at all of them again, but when he looked a kavin, who clearly seemed like he was hiding something, was enough for him to know.

Unfortunately, the most unexpectedly tragic call was yet to arrive for Abhijeet. He excused himself from there, getting to a corner to answer the call from his Commissioner.

"ji sir." Received abhijeet the call, still keeping an eye on the khanna family and the unwanted stranger.

"kahan ho tum?" questioned the commissioner.

"sir, woh khannas ke ghar mein aag lagayi gayi hai aur bani khanna pe hamla hua hai, uske hi silsile mein hospital mein hoon." Informed abhijeet, as he was now paying his attention on the call.

"hmm, waise iss hi silsile mein tumse baat karne k liye phone kiya tha tumhe...uss sab ki ab zaroorat nahi padegi, seedha chowki aa jao wapas." Instructed the commissioner, confusing abhijeet.

"lekin, sir..." attempted abhijeet to argue.

"abhijeet, maine order diya hai." Stated the commissioner bluntly, as abhijeet did not see his place to argue any further, quietly hung up on the call, and turned to leave.

Abhijeet signalled pasi to come along with him, as even he was more confused now, but came along with him anyways. Meanwhile, dushyant had an odd smirk on his face, one that comes from the satisfaction of having things go exactly as one wanted to. But purvi and ishita shared an extremely wicked look, making it far from obvious, that they were not at all plotting against each other now. Kavin, though, seemed to be doubtful.

Abhijeet arrived at the police station, only to notice mr and mrs singhania, with their son, seated there. He was obviously left perplexed. He hurried to the commissioner's office, wanting answers so bad, not knowing the disappointment that lied ahead for him.

The door opened, as abhijeet just stormed into the office this time, after all, it was urgent.

"sir, yeh sab kya tha? Aap kuch bataiye toh hua kya hai?" questioned abhijeet, but the commissioner didn't even respond, just passed on a letter to abhijeet, as he was puzzled.
