Everyone is congratulating him for winning the case.
He is in headquarters late night for the formalities and paper work
Naina has been released from all the charges.
He had been working on his case which he built by bringing in light those names which were the real culprit .
It was a hard three months of toil and hardwork
He parked the Jeep outside his house and unlock the door with the set of keys he keeps......as it was late and she must be asleep.
He came inside and locked the door.
Switching on the lights he saw around.
The dining table seemed to be untouched with food kept covered with lid and all plates upside down.
He went to check in her room she was sleeping curled up in blanket
he stepped inside the room
Switched on the AC and turned off the light......
The moment he turned off the lights she woke up with a jerk
"Kaun hai"
She asked in panicked voice
He turned on the lights immediately
"Main hun naina"
He said and she took a deep breath.
"Tumne khana kyun nahi khaya
Chalo thoda kha lo"
He said
"Mujhe bhook nahi hai
Maine dudh pee liya tha"
She said softly.
He didn't insist....for eating
"Medicine li tumne"
He asked
"Jii....."
She replied
"Kuch chahiye ho to Bata Dena"
He said
And she noded
He was about to switch off the light
"Lights on rehne dijiye...."
She said to stop him
He turned to her
"Mujhe andhere mein neend nahi ati"
She said and he let the lights on
Wondering how she is going to sleep in this light.
________________
She is sitting in the army headquarters to Sign some paper to complete the formalities.
Shaking her legs in anxiety
Breathing low
Sweating profoundly
He was in next cabin talking with an officer.....
While she was waiting to close the formalities
When she heard a familiar voice....which made her shiver ......
The voice of her interrogation officer.
She turned and saw
Major Ajit Khanna
Entering the cabin
The one who molested her in cell....when she was in arrest.
"So how are you doing captain shikhawat
Your husband finally pulled you out of the mess."
He said in front of her.
With a devil smirk.
While she felt terrified even in this open cabin in day light with so many people around....the cabin.
"I have signed the papers
Sign here and you are finally free"
He said
Pushing a file towards her.
She took a pen and signed the papers with shaking hands.
He asked for file by extending his hand
She picked up the file and handed over to him
And he intentionally brush her hands.
She jerked off her hands back...
Feeling filthy.....on her skin.....
Looking at him with disgusting expression
"You know no one will believe a women like you....
It's better to keep your mouth shut."
She was listening his dirty words
And these words didn't went unheard by Rajveer who was standing at the door .....
"Aah major shikhawat
Please come in"
He suddenly went decent....
Raj walked in with skeptical eyes on him....
And then on Naina
Who was looking white and sweating in this air-conditioned cabin.
She didn't turned
She knew he is here and took a sigh of relief.
"The formalities are over
You can take your wife home
Best of luck captain Naina Singh."
"Thanks major Khanna "
He said and turned to her
"Naina chalen"
He asked and she got up
"See you then captain Naina
Aur waise bhi apki posting next month we mere sector mein hongi
Mulakaten hoti rahengi"
He said and naina saw him again with fear....not unnoticed by Raj
________
She was quite on their way back home and Raj was feeling heavily uneasy....
With what he heard and sensesd in the cabin......
She is sweating with fear
All covered in mud .....
She is trying to clean herself
But the more she try to clean the more dirty she gets....
The mud is all over her face and hands and clothes....
She is feeling filthy and rotten.
She gets up with a cold sigh
With Rajveer sitting beside her with a worried look....
"Naina kya hua.... "
He is patting her hairs trying to calm her down...
She was shouting in her sleep and he came to check....to find her tossing on bed restlessly
She saw him
And realized it was just a dream
But she is still feeling filthy
She is feeling a strong urge to clean herself.
She saw him with eyes asking for help
But then she jerked his hands away and got down and ran in the washroom
Putting on the shower.....
With clothes on......
Trying to clean herself with water.
Rajveer was unable to understand
As he heard the shower for next 15 mins
It was midnight........
