Guys ! Please do vote and comment !

Amukta understood that dev is not much bothered about his suspension. It is not like he got suspended for the first time but 3 months is a huge duration in a situation like the present one. 

Dev : alright sir ! 

Dev saluted to the SSP. A constable who is familiar to him came towards him .

Constable : sir ! Come in that vehicle. We will take care about this.

Dev : ok ! 

Dev went towards amukta and saw her who is staring at him with questioning eyes. He winked at her indicating that it is going to be fine. But suddenly someone dropped a granite near them. Dev pushed amukta aside and he too moved away.

SSP : catch him ! Don't spare him ! 

Few constables ran behind him and brought him there. That man don't have his right hand.

SSP : who are you ? Why are you running away ?

Dev : gopi ! 

SSP : dev ! Do you know him ?

Dev : his hand ! The hand that vasudev sir received is his hand. He is alive. But he lost his hand.

SSP : what happened to you ? How you lost your hand ? Why it was sent to us ? Why are you attacking us ?

Gopi : jara chopped my hand. I didn't obey to touch his feet. He did that to me. I don't know why he sent it to police.

SSP : then what are you doing in the forest ? Why you tried to attack us ?

Gopi : I was at jara's godown. Yesterday I got chance to escape and i did. I thought you people are jara's men by seeing from distance. When i am escaping i took some granites. I used them on you. Please forgive me sir !

Gopi dropped to his knees and begged them.

Amukta : he is innocent sir ! I can assure you. We did background verification. He have a mother and he used to work as a PT teacher. Love made him blind and he ended up like this.

SSP : if anything goes wrong your husband will face the consequences.

Amukta : he won't face anything sir ! Because i am 100 % sure about that. He is innocent.

Dev looked at amukta with and made an expression as if he is applauding her.

Amukta : I understood that something is running your mind sir ! Please bless me by saying it after reaching home.

Dev nodded and took out their belongings from the jeep. They went and sat in the police vehicle. The SSP is staring at dev with a mixture of anger and dismay. Dev ignored it and turned towards amukta. She is extremely tired and sleepy. He wrapped his hand around her and she leaned on his shoulder. She closed her eyes.

SSP : you did a huge mistake dev ! You went against rules in a situation where it is more difficult to let you get back to your work again. Why don't you just stick to designated work and concentrate on future plans and investments in the free time ?  

Dev : I still remember the days i have spent in the police academy sir. There used to be a gentleman. He once told that a person who is aspiring to become a civil servant should always think about the citizens well being first and then about his rules. I followed it sir . Not just now ! But from day i became a police i am following it. That gives me peace and satisfaction. I won't get that because of materialistic things like money or properties. We are content with our salaries and the properties left by my deceased parents.

SSP was taken aback. Dev closed his eyes and leaned back because of exhaustion. He didn't say anything but he noticed an injury on amukta's head. Dev didn't notice it as he is sitting on the other side of her.

SSP : Dev ! Look at your wife. She is injured.

Dev : what ?

Dev checked her and saw blood oozing from her lower head. Her neck is covering with blood. He almost felt like dying by looking at her. Fear took control over his confidence and courage. The fear of loosing a loved one. It seems like the wound got deepened just now and it wasn't that deep till now. He held the hem of amukta's saree and pressed it near her wound with some pressure to stop  the blood-loss.

Dev : ammu ! Open your eyes. 

Dev patted her cheeks but she didn't respond.

Dev : ammu ! Listen to me please. You will be fine. Open your eyes.

SSP passed the water bottle to Dev. Dev splashed some water on amukta's face. She opened her eyes lightly. Dev looked at her with teary eyes. He didn't even realise that he is crying.

Amukta : Dev ! Nothing will ..happ..en to me. Don't wo..rry ! I am loosi..ng my consciousness beca..use of bl..oo.d lo..ss.

Dev : please ! Don't close your eyes. I am getting scared. 

SSP : driver ! Please go fast. She is injured.

Driver increased the speed. Amukta slowly lost her consciousness again. Dev is praying to every single god for amukta's well being. He didn't even realise that she is injured. He hated himself for being careless. He kissed her face multiple times and assured himself that she will be alright. He know that his ammu is a fighter. He told himself that she will be fine.

Soon they reached the hospital . Dev lifted her in his hands and rushed into the emergency room. The doctors came and started treating her. He stood outside hoping that she will be fine. He recalled that amukta once told him not to beat any criminal near the place where skull joins the spinal cord and lower head. She said that there are some important points in the body which could kill people because of a single slap in some situations. 

SSP : dev ! Even you are injured. Get your wounds treated.

Dev : no sir ! 

SSP : don't be foolish. Go and get treated first. She will be alright. She told you that she will be fine right ? No doctor will give false hopes. They will rather break our heart into million pieces by revealing the truth than telling sweet lies.

Dev : but a wife won't do that sir ! 

.........

How's the chapter ? 

Will amukta be ok ?
