HM enters mpt and sees everyone is working. She gets a little surprised to see that. She fake coughs, they look at her and immediately stand up to salute.
Everyone: Jai Hind MS
HM smiles: Jai hind
KS enter behind her still a little embarrassed and awkward.
HM: kya baat hai aaj kam kuch jyada hai kya?
Santu: nahi MS wo aapke jane ke bad dsp sir aye the. Kuch files thama ke gaye hai, wapas ayenge lene.
HM and KS look at each other.
KS: Achha? Kaisi files hai? Aur aap logonko kyun di hai? Dikhao to jara.
KS approaches SS and takes a file and starts reading. She is getting angry by every page she's reading. She scratches her forehead and throws the file on santu's desk.
KS: Ama ye kya topagiri hai? Us harami bulbul pandey ki files yahan kyun ayi hai? Mar gaya kya wo? Ya thana jal gaya uska? Nahi bhi jhala Ho to ab hum jalayenge.
HM is looking at her and gets confused.
HM: KS shant Ho jayiye kya hua hai? Hume to batayiye.
KS looks directly at HM, still very angry.
KS: MS ye bulbul pandey SHO hai, iske thane me to koi thik se kam nahi krta. Humesha uska paper work ya to adhura hota hai ya phir galat. Isse pehle bhi ek bar usne HQ ke connections use krke bachho ki tarah humse apna homework krwane ki koshish ki thi. Us waqt thik se samjhaye the hum usko. Lagta hai phir se jindagi se nata kharab Ho gaya hai uska.
HM goes near her, gives her a glass of water and puts her hand on KS's shoulder. KS feels sudden calm in her head.
HM: koi in files par kam nahi krega. hum baat krte hai DSP sir se.
PJ: ha MS kariye aap baat. Ye koi aaj kal ki files nahi hai, 6 mahine pehle tak ki hai.
KS turn to look at PJ and was about to shout but HM holds her by her wrist and nods to keep her calm.
HM: ye sach me bachkani harkat hai. SHO hai wo, apne thane ke staff se kam krvaye. Aap sab shant Ho jayiye. Jaiye chai pikar aa jaiye. Everyone feels good about the break and head out.
HM looks at KS: aap bhi jaiye.
KS smiles, HM looks at suspiciously, KS lifts her hand and HM realises that she's still holding her hand. She immediately leaves it smiles awkwardly.Almost at the end of the shift DSP sir comes back and asks for the files.
HM comes out of her cabin.
HM: Jai Hind sir.
DSP: Hai Hind. HM humne di hui files complete Ho gayi?
HM: Ji nahi sir, aur hongi bhi nahi.
DSP: (surprised) kya matlab hai aapka?
HM: Ji humara matlab hai ki agar teacher khud bachho ko cheating karna sikhaye to kisi bachhe ko sawal krna pdega na?
DSP: kya bol rahi hai aap Haseena Malik?
HM: sir aap humse bulbul Pandey ke thane ka kam kyun krwa rahe hai?
DSP: Ji unke thane me kuch problem chal rahi hai isliye hum unki madad kr rahe hai. Aap apne fellow SHO ki help nahi krna chahengi?
HM: jaroor kyun nahi. Lekin agar aap hume bata dete ki koi problem hai, Bulbul pandey hume ek call krke bol dete ki unhe help ki jaroorat hai. Respecting each other is important Sir.
DSP can't argue now.
HM: waise kya problem hui hai sir?
DSP: Ji wo.. wo chutti pe gaye hai.
KS: Waah kya problem hai.
DSP startled by this, he is already embarrassed.
HM gestures KS not to say anything.
HM: I hope you understand sir, hum unke thane ki 6 mahine ki files complete nahi kr sakte aur hume krni bhi nahi chahiye. Hume aapse ye ummid nahi thi sir. Hum apne farz ke liye jaan bhi de denge lekin koi humara galat fayda uthaye ye hum bardasht nahi kr sakte.
Jai Hind Sir
DSP looks at everyone and understands. He nods and leaves with incomplete files.
PJ: Waah MS aapne to unki bolti band kr di.
KS is also impressed by HM's words but she looks worried. HM notices that.
HM: kya hua KS aap pareshan lag rahi hai.
KS: Ji MS, ye jo abhi hua iska koi ulta parinam na Ho bas itna hi soch rahe the.
HM: Agar sach ke sath rehna hai to jhooth se Kuch jyada hi ladna padta hai KS. Fikr mat kariye. Jo bhi hoga hum sath milke sambhal lenge. Ab aap akeli nahi hai.
KS looks at her in wonder and thinks how HM understood exactly what she was thinking about.
KS (in mind): Hume aaj sach me laga ki koi humare sath hai.
They both smile at each other.
HM: aaj night duty kisiki hai?
PJ: humari hai MS.
HM: thik hai dhyan rakhiye. Jai hind
Everyone: Jai HInd MS
Everyone leaves for home. KS is still roaming on her bike with headphones on. She is feeling calm today like she never felt before. Like someone has shared weight that was on her shoulders for so damn long. She is continuously smiling and singing out loud.
KS reaches her home, it's almost midnight. Her phone rings,
KS: Haan bolo kuch mila?
Hacker: Ji madam. Meine un sabke account ko roj dekh raha hu. Aaj usme ek transaction hua hai wo bhi online. Aur address yahin Lucknow ka dikha raha hai. Meine aapko location bheja hai.
KS:shabas beta. Lage rahe. Waise kitna amount jana hua hai?
Hacker: Ji 2.5 lack
KS: Achha thik hai.
KS cuts the call and dials HM immediately.
HM: boliye KS
KS: MS ek khabar mili hai.
And tells her everything.
HM: hum nikal rahe hai abhi, aap 10 min me gate par aa jaiye
KS: Ji MS
They both sit in the car.
HM: Thank you kuch krne se pehle hume call krne ke liye.
KS: Ji wada kiya hai humne.
But in mind: pata nahi kaise itni asani de sidha aapko call kiya. Ek bar sochne ki bhi jaroorat nahi padi warna hum to bike leke nikal padte.
HM: kya hua KS? Kya soch rahi hai?
KS: umm nahi kuch nahi
HM: Hume bhot savdhani se kam krna hai. Aur Haan important baat, hum kisi ko bhi arrest nahi krenge. Range hatho pakde gaye to bhi nahi.
KS: ka? Kyun MS?
HM: aise bade racket me hamesha yahi hua hai ki hum koi chote mote player ko arrest krke upar walonko agah kr dete hai aur phir unko pakdna namunkin Ho jata hai. Aur ye kam jo hume rokna hai wo kabhi pura nahi hota.
KS: aap sahi keh rahi hai MS. To abhi hum sirf najar rakhnge jo bhi hume milta jayega.
HM: bilkul sahi.
KS's phone beeps. It's the hacker again. He has sent a picture saying he hacked the person's webcam and took this picture.
KS's face brightens up.
HM looks at her from the corner of her eyes but couldn't ask as she thinks it might be something personal so she waits. KS looks at her and laughs.
HM: kya hua? Itni khush kyun hai?
KS: MS pehla lead mil gaya.
And shows her the picture. HM is very impressed.
They reach the place, it's an old Chinese restaurant. Kafi unhygienic. They look at each other and get down. They are not wearing uniforms. HM is in loose cotton pants and sweatshirt, KS is wearing t shirt jeans and leather jacket.
No one suspects anything and they go near the restaurant pretending to be hungry.
HM: kaisa hoga khana kya lagta hai?
KS: ab jaisa bhi Ho bhuk bhot lagi hai.
HM: to andar jake khaye ya ghar le jaye?
KS: hum ab aur nahi ruk sakte idhar hi kha lete hai
HM looks around: Pakka?
They both sense some eyes on them so they keep pretending and walk inside. They look around closely but can't find the face in the picture. They both point towards a corner table at the same time the look at each other and smile as if understood each other. They chose that table because the whole restaurant was visible from there. They sit there looking at the menu card.
HM: waise kya aap sach me yahan khana khanewali hai?
KS: ab duty ke liye itna to krna pdega.
They silently laugh and order some noodles and rice.
They eat their food which was surprisingly not that bad keeping their eyes on every corner but they don't see anyone or any suspicious activity. They get up and go to the counter to pay the bill.
KS: sach bole bhai to hume nahi laga tha khana itna Achha niklega. Thank you. Bhot jyada bhuk lagi thi. Hum aate rahenge ab to yahan.
Hotel owner: Arey madam thank you. Aate rahiye.
They are about to leave when 2-3 goons enter and start bullying. The goons pass by HM almost colliding into her, KS hold HM's wrist and pulls her towards herself and take her out.
KS: aap thik hai MS?
HM: Haan hum thik hai, aap?
KS: Ji hum thik hai. Yahan to waise kuch mila nahi. Wo gunde kaun Ho sakte hai?
HM: lag to local hi rahe the. Hume lgta hai hume kisi tarah yahan ek cctv lagana padega. Lekin Bina kisko pata chale. Kaise hoga?
KS thinks of something, wo aap hum me chod dijiye, kaam Ho jayega.
HM: Thik hai aap pe chodte hai, lekin aap humara hath kab chodengi?
KS looks at their hands and leaves her hand. And start looking at sky and scratches her forehead.
KS: Ji wo bhagdad me dhyan nahi raha
HM is smiling and admiring how cute KS looks when embarrassed. KS can't look at HM and slowly walks towards the car, HM follows.
HM drops KS and leaves for home.
She reaches home and checks her phone.
Text
KS: aap ke sath kam krke hume Achha lag raha hai.
HM smiles
HM: Hume bhi.
KS smiles and throw herself on the bed.
