Love or Law?

Part 1 - Anything for him

In India

Nishan or Shan as he was called by his loved ones parked his car and rang the bell of his house almost mechanically still not relieved from the shock of the news he received. The door was opened by his limping but cheerful wife Gitika aka Gitu

Gitu: Oh my god Shan where were you? I was trying for a long time to tell you a piece of good news.  Hello ... here

She said waving her hands in front of him seeing him looking lost

Shan: (With a fake smile) yeah what happened? Er ... I mean ... you look so much happy

Gitu: Of course I am ... and you know why? (Squealing in happiness) finally ... finally ... Nav is coming to India after these many years with (with a smirk) his fiancée

Shan: (In a shocked voice) what? He is coming ... and that too with his fiancée ... What? Fiancée?

Gitu: Haha ... look at your face ... and yes Shan fiancée ... at last he proposed to her and as per Amy ... in his sweet romantic Arnav way. And can you imagine where? The lovely island where they spent the last month ... the famous Tutuila Island. Oh ... you have to see the pictures from there it's just wow!

Shan: (Confusedly) but he

Gitu: You can't believe it right? I too was like this when I received the pics. But then he called and you have to hear him Shan ... he ... our Nav sounded so much happy. And then there were the pics from the birthday party ... and those are ... just wow ... I mean every corner showing her love for him and you know what? He told me he had the best birthday of his life sans us of course. You really have to see the snaps and videos yaar we ... we missed so much fun. (Pouting) I told you we should have gone; it was just a brace I could have easily managed with your help. (Sighing) but who will consider my words? And yeah not to forget those two monkeys too had to agree with you ... Huh! ... by the way, I had sent some snaps to your phone but you haven't seen it. Was your phone silent?

Shan: Huh?

Gitu: Shan (Seeing his worried expression) what happened? You seem so much tensed ... kya hua (What happened) ... tell me is there any problem?

Shan: (Turning away) what had gotten into you Gitu? What will happen to me? I am perfectly alright and yeah there is no problem

Gitu: Really? Then tell that looking into my eyes. (Sensing his silence) Shan ... what is it? Any problem with the new case?

Shan: Gitu

Gitu: Yes Shan ... tell me why are you so disturbed?

Shan: Gitu hmm ... my junior found some development to the new case and asked me could we meet somewhere and we both were near to the Mandir that time and there I ... I saw someone ... someone I hoped to never meet again

Gitu: Shaaan who? About whom are you talking about? No ... I am not ready for another riddle now ... so tell me who was it?

Shan: (Sighing) I thought that 'never meet' was enough for you to understand

Gitu: Who (Suddenly reading his expression) Ms. Gupta? Why the hell she came back ... I mean she was in her Mom's house, right? (Seeing his grim expression) wait ... where did you tell me you saw her?

Shan: (Frowning) mandir

Gitu: Thank God ... you frightened me unnecessarily (Sighing) I mean ... maybe came to do some Puja or something for her (Sarcastically) unlikely marriage with Nav

Shan: (Shaking his head) that is what I thought too ... but then she was wearing all the accessories of a married woman. On one side I was happy as she left her dream to marry Nav but still, something wasn't perfect with the surrounding I saw her ... so I had asked Sunil to do a background check
