Trilochan Roy Chowdhury is anxious from morning ,the reason is non other than his own nephew whom he , himself, has raised. He keeps looking from clock to the door and finally at the Batuk . Anything goes wrong he is surely not going to leave him .
On the other side , Batuk 's condition is also not different from him. He is praying to almighty to sent Aadhya. Though she has refused to help ,he still had hope in his heart which is dying with each passing second .Anirudh who is reading newspaper in a corner has noticed the fishy behaviour of his brother and uncle .He folds the paper and keep it aside and looks directly at their direction.
"Koi Aane wala hai?" He asked..
"Nhi Kaun aayega" Batuk replied on reflex and gives him unnecessary bright Smile. Anirudh shakes his head at his brother and decided to leave from there before their strange behaviour would drive him crazy.
He stands up quietly and turns back.
"Dada , Aapse milne Aadhya aayi hai" No sooner had he turned than Batuk overenthusiastic voice halted his legs . He turns back and see Aadhya standing at the entrance with uncertain expression. As soon as he looks at her she smiles at him and walks towards him
"Namaste, Barrister Babu" She greeted and then look towards Trilochan and Batuk to greet them .
"Kya hua Aadhya? Aarti ji se koi baat hui kya?" He asked with a glint of hope in his eyes.
"Ha " It is Batuk who replied instead of Aadhya.
"Nhi" She immediately corrected him, glaring him. She knows she is here to make some excuse to keep him away from his house and using Aarti's case would be the best .But these cases are not mere cases for him. It is his dream . Dream of bringing a change .she can't play with his feelings by giving him false hope.
"Wo mai yaha aayi thi kyuki mujhe aapse kaam tha " She speaks and stops .He looks at her waiting her to say the work.
"Kaam kya hai Aadhya?" He speaks, raising his eyebrows.
"Ha ,meri saheli Betty hai na.Wo aaj yaha aa rahi .To mujhe usse station per lene Jana hai" She speaks whatever come first in her mind.
"To?' He asked curtly while Batuk and Trilochan looks at them anxiously.
"To?..." She looks at Batuk for help but he helplessly looks away."..To...Mai kaise jaungi Station"
"Bahut sare Tonga ya bailgadi(bullock cart) mil jayenge,Aadhya" He answered
"Baat Jane ke sadhan ki nhi hai. Akele Jane ki hai" Said Aadhya ."Mai bechari,abla naari ...akele ....itni duuurrr .... station..." She makes a innocent face and looks at him
"Krishnanagar se yaha tak kiske saath aayi ho, Aadhya" He asked making her speechless. Indeed she has alone travelled so far .
"Chandrachur Babu..." She lied efficiently. " Unko kuchh kam tha to wo yahi tak chhor kar chale gaye"
"To mujhse kya chahti ho , Aadhya" Anirudh ask with hint of frustration in his voice.
"Kya chahti ho Ka kya matlab ? Are chhor kar aao use station tak aur kya" Trilochan speaks in middle. Anirudh looks at him with displeased expression.
"Bihari , Jeep le jao aur Aadhya ko station chhor kar aao" He ordered.
"Are ...Samasya Sadhan me nhi hai . Suraksha me hai ." She speaks.
"Itni dino se gaon me ghum rahi ho, Aaj hi suraksha ki chinta ho rahi hai tumhe?" He asked getting suspicious about her intentions.
"Khud ki nhi Betty ki ." She answer ." Mana Barister Babu ki yaha ke log bahut achche hai .Mehmano ki bahut kadr karte hai .Per ek do to hai na Jo asamajik hai. Ek to Betty khubsurat ladki aur videshi hai .Aaj kal angrezi sarkar ke saath sangharsh me koi nasamjh ne Betty ko nukshan panhuchani chahi to..."
