Sourabh and Paarth went out of the room to meet Ms Shallet. Erica, Pooja,Sumedh and Sanskruti stayed in the room. There was silence in the room, until Erica's phone rang and she left the room to answer the call. So it was Pooja,Sumedh and Sanskruti.
"uhhuuhu" Pooja faked a cough. Sanskruti looked up and immediately bowed her head low, as soon as she understood the meaning of the cough.
"Kya?! Kya bolna chahte ho di? Auise khasi to mat lao." Sumedh said to Pooja in an awkward tone.
"yahi, ki finally, Aag ne patanga ko swikar kar hi liya.." Pooja looked at Sanskruti as she smiled sweetly.
"Kya ag? Kya Patanga? Mujhe..Mujhe to kuch samajh nahi aaraha." Sumedh replied.
"Samajh jaoge Bohot jald."
Their conversation had an abrupt end when Sourabh and Paarth entered the room.
"Number mil gaya." Paarth informed.
"To wait kya kar rahe ho? Phone lagao." Sanskruti spoke..
"Hmm...Bandi samajhdaar ban gayi hai teri Sumedh." Paaarth taunted.
"Chup kar ja Paarth..Accha nahi hoga." Sumedh was getting irritated now.
"Main karta hu." Sourabh interrupted. He dialed a number and called someone. While everyone else looked at Sourabh.
"Hello? Kya main Mr Dhoondhon Paa se baat kar raha hu.?" Sourabh Asked.
"Ji HAAN.Ap kaun?" answer came from the other side.
"Ji main Sourabh Raaj Jain bol raha hun, Main St. Louis ka ek student hun. Ap humara guide the.Yaad hai?....Ji Ji....Mujhe apse ek factory ka pata puchna tha....SVM Factory?...Woh kaha hai?...oh..ok. But please apko pata chale to hume jald se jald inform kar dijiye..haanji..urgent hai. Thik hai. Shukriya. Sourabh hanged up the call.
"Kya hua?"
"Svm Factory naam ka koi factory use pata nahi..lekin woh chanbeen karke hume inform karega aur waha le bhi jayega." Sourabh answered.
"Ab kya kare?" Sourabh asked.
"Google maps pe ekbaar check kare?" Sanskruti suggested.
"Hmm..Dekhte hai." Paarth replied. And he searched the factory in google.But surprisingly there was nothing like Svm factory in the result box.."Yaar kaise ho sakta hai!"
"Ho sakta hai.." Erica replied as she entered the room. Everyone looked at her.
"Kaise?" Sumedh asked, followed by others.
"Maa se baat hui abhi abhi. Maa apni bachpan Mussorie main hi bitayi. Maa ne bataya, yaha bohot saare aise jagah hai,jiski official naam bilkul famous nahi hai. Un jagaho ka locationwise logo ne koi aur naam de diya hai aur wahi naam famous ho gaya hai..Shayad Svm Factory ka koi aur naam hai jis naam se log use pehchante hai.." Erica said.
"Yeh ho sakta hai." Sourabh replied.
"Paarth, type 'factories in mussorie' aur dekh to.." Pooja suggested.
"hmm..ok" Paarth did as instructed. A list of Factories' appeared as a result, but there was no factory named Svm Factory.
"Nahi hai. " Paarth replied.
"Hmm" Sourabh responded. "Main thoda bahar ja raha hun"
"Par kaha? Pooja asked " Main chalu? "
"Koi, zaroorat nahi" Sourabh replied and he left the room. The meeting was dismissed and so everybody returned to their respective rooms.
Sanskruti was alone in her room when there was knock on the door. Sumedh.
"Tum? Kuch kaam tha? " Sanskruti was still hesitant in her talk..
"Umm, haa. Andar a sakta hun? " Sumedh said
"Sure."
"San, I know tum mujhse bohot pyaar karti ho. Mere liye tumne jo kuch bhi kiya hai woh sab koi apna bhi nahi karta. Lekin past main jo kuch bhi hua hai.. Main tumpe puri tarike se bharosa kaise karu?
" Pata hai Sumedh, Maine tumhe dhokha diya hai, lekin yeh bhi sach hai ki main tumse bohot pyar karti hu. Log had main pyar karte hai, par main. Main tumse behad pyar karti hun.. Tum mujhe agar puri zindagi bhi maaf na karo na, to main tumse kuch nahi Puchungi. Lekin main bhi tumse keh deti hun, if I ever loved anyone, that is only you. Aur shayad isiliye main tumhara liye khud ko mita bhi sakti hun.. Age Tum jo thik samjho "
"Tumne jo galti ki, uski koi maafi nahi hai. Aur maine iss bare socha bhi tha ki tumhe main kabhi maaf nahi karunga. Lekin jis tarah se tumne mere liye itna kuch kiya, tumhari yeh nayi roop dekh ke main tumhe izzat dena chahta hun.. Maine tumhe maaf kiya. "
Sanskruti looked up. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She was speechless. She stood rooted, until, until Sumedh wiped her tears and gave her tight hug, whispering softly in her ears.. "I love you. "
"I love you too Sumedh" Sanskruti 's tears didn't stop. She kept on weeping on Sumu's shoulders.
Sourabh waited in front of the ward map of Mussorie. He travelled from the outskirt hill top to the main city. He visited Mussorie before and so he knew a travel guide there. A well experienced one. Mr Kundra came in front of Sourabh.
"Arre Sourabh ji, Kaise hai ap? " Mr Kundra spoke.
"Bas apka madad chahiye"
"Ha boliye na! "
Sourabh took out a photo from his phone.. It was the zoomed photo of the factory logo.
"Ap iss logo ko pehchante hai? " Sourabh asked.
The guide looked at the photo carefully and then thought something for a moment.
"Yeh to lal dhigi factory ka logo hai. "
"Lal dhigi? "
"Ji haan. Ek lake ke paas hai yeh factory. Usi lake ke paas Kamakhya mata ka mandir bhi hai. Kehte har mahine jab Masik ata hai devi kaam, to mandir se khoon us talap main behne lagta hai aur woh talap lal ho jata hai. Isiliye use lal dhigi kehte hai. Lal dhigi yani Red lake. Yeh factory wahi pe situated hai, isiliye uska naam bhi Lal Dhigi factory. "
"Oh, I see. "
"Dekhiye sir, yeh logo ko thik tareeke se. Yeh jo lal gol hai, yeh talap ka naksha hai. "
"Ap bata sakte hai, yeh factory kaha hoga? "
"Lal dhigi ke paas. Bohot famous jagah hai yeh to. Lekin yeb factory to kaafi saal pehle locked out ho chuka hai. Lock out hone ke result main labourers jinke naukri chali gayi thi, is factory ko ag laga dala gusse main. Tab se waha koi nahi jata. Kehte hai waha bhooton ka vaas hai. "
Sourabh smirked.. "Ek taraf mata ka mandir, aur dusri tarak bhooton?! Main waha jaunga. "
"Thik hai, le chalta hu apko. "
"Abhi nahi, raat ko. "
"Raat ko kyun? Kya hua hai saab?
"Aise hi.. Ap jaa sakte hai. Thank you so much. "
Mr Kundra left. Sourabh immediately called Pooja.
"Hello Pooja, Bakio ko lekar main city pohocho. Sun set hone se pehle main city pohoch jao. Baad main vaadiyon se aane main problem ho jayegi. Do as I say. And yes bring all the self defence kiti. Ok? "
"Hmm.. " Pooja replied.
The phone hanged.
"Zyada door nahi hai hum.. Yeh drugs ki case bohot jald niptegi! " Sourabh thought to himself
