Chapter 13

"CONFRONTATIONS"

Varun took Vikram and Mallika to hospital. Vikram's health was fine and Mallika was also fine. Sumedh's betrayal broke her from inside.
She found him.

Nirvan Lodge. A 2 star lodge.
Sumedh was not in his room whe she came. He opened the door to his room and found Mallika sitting on a chair. Military pant and black crop top with olive green jacket, gun in hand.

Sumedh let out a small laugh.

Sumedh:
Dhoond liya Major! Good job.
Mallika:
I am good at my job Sumedh. Just not good at recognizing people.
Sumedh:
No Major. You are good at it but the thing is, I am brilliant at fooling.
Mallika:
You fooled me well Sumedh...You really did.
Sumedh:
Goli marne aai ho na...toh maaro. Baate kya kar rahi ho.

He said taking steps to her. Se pointed gun on his chest.

Mallika:
Yaha...dil mein maarke koi fayda nahi...kyunki sab dimag mein hai.

She pointed gun on his head. Mallika looks down and the looks at her.

Sumedh:
Major Mallika, agar tumhe mujhe goli marni hoti na...tum kal hi maar deti. Tumhare bass ki nahi hai mujhe goli marna.
Mallika:
Kitne badal gaye ho. Kal subha takk kaise the aur kal raat se kaise ho. Lag raha hai jaise tumhe jaanti hi nahi hu main.
Sumedh:
Mallika...sach kahu toh main nahi chahta tha ki tumhe ye sab pata chale. CM ke attack ke wajah se, I had to step in. Gun neeche karo Mallika. Tum chalane wali ho nahi.

Mallika frustratedly throws the gun away. She steps ahead starts hitting Sumedh's chest helplessly.

Mallika:
How could you do this Sumedh?!
Sumedh:
Don't do that
Mallika:
Dil nahi hai kya tume?
Sumedh:
Stop hitting.
Mallika:
Itne time takk tumne mujhe dhoka diya!
Sumedh:
Bass karo!
Mallika:
Kaha the hum aur dekho hum kaha aagaye hai! Why couldn't you just be what you were!!?
Sumedh:
ENOUGH!

He grabs Mallika's arms but she immediately lets out painful "Sumedh"
He looks at his hand on her arms, he hand was red with blood. He looked at her hand. Blood tipped down her fingers.

Sumedh:
OH FUCK!

He made her sit on the sofa and removed her jacket. Her hand was covered with blood. She hadn't bandaged it, just removed the bullet.

Sumedh:
Mallika bandage bhi nahi karvaya ha tumne! Goli bhi kyun nikalvai...waise hi rehene deti na!
Mallika:
Goli abhi bhi waisi hi hai.

He looks at her. She is making a firm eye contact. She points at the arm.

Mallika:
Farak sirf itna hai ki yaha nahi.(points at heart) yaha par hai.

Sumedh keeps quiet and just does the bandage. She is staring at him.

Sumedh:
Aise kya dekh rahi ho?
Mallika:
Kon ho tum? Kal subha alag the...kal raat tum alag the...aaj subha tum alag ho. Tum sach mein kon ho?

Sumedh made a firm contact.

Sumedh:
Main woh hu jisne tumhe dhoka diya hai Mallika. . Haa tumhari jaan bachai kai baar maine par kal raat lene ki koshish nahi ki?
Mallika:
Nahi...tum meri jaan lena chate toh le chuke hote. Haath se agar 4 inch durr marte toh kehe sakte the ki maarne ki koshish ki.
Sumedh:
Mallika...tum apne dimag mein mujhe bachane ki koshish kar rahi ho. Main kal raat wala hi hu...subha wala addition tumhare liye special hai!
Mallika:
Sumedh, tum ye sab rokk do. Sab theek hoga.
Sumedh:
Mujhe kuch theek nahi karna.

A tear was about to fall from Mallika's eyes when Sumedh caught it in his palm.

Sumedh:
Don't you dare cry. I AM NOT WORTH CRYING. Please leave.
Mallika:
If you ask me...FOR ME. YOU ARE WORTH THE WORLD.
Sumedh:
Mujhse humdardi matt karo Mallika!!
Mallika:
MAIN PYAAR KAR BAITHI HU SUMEDH.
Sumedh:
Bhul jao mujhe! Kabhi yaad matt karo mujhe! LEAVE!
Mallika:
Mallika se keh rahe ho ya Major Mallika se?
Sumedh:
Mallika se.
Mallika:
Mallika kabhi nahi jayegi.
Sumedh:
Toh phir Major se ke raha hu!
Mallika:
Major Mallika tumhari laash ke bina nahi jayegi!

Sumedh throws in hand in the air and just sits exhausted beside her
