Together Forever

chapter 1

Abhijeet 's phone rang.

He went over some distance and started talking on phone.

Abhijeet : Jee papers ready ho gaye ?Kab karna hai join ?

Daya : Join ?

Abhijeet took the phone aside for a minute and said " Wo mai transfer le raha hu. Cid me ye mera akhiri case hai. "

Excuse me.

He went from there.Daya was shocked after listening these words.

Shreya : Sir aap ko pata hai wo aapke liye kya maine rakhte hai. Please rok ligiye unhe.

Daya : Nahi Shreya. Use jana ho to chala jayega.

. . . . . . . .

Daya : Abhijeet aisa mat karo. Tumhe hamari dost ka vasta.

Abhijeet : Tere jaise dost aur koi nahi hai Daya. Mai ja raha hu Daya. Bye.

Tears where about to fall from his eyes.

Daya : Nahi. Abhijeet mujhe chodke aise nahi ja sakta.

He searched everywhere for Abhijeet but could not find him.

Many lines came in his memory.

( refer to classic episode in which Daya could be seen inside hospital and Abhijeet and Acp pradyuman present along with him. )

Daya kaan ko haath laga aur bol phir kabhi cocaine nahi lega.

( refer to abhijeet ka inteqam )

Tum bas ek awaz dena mujhe. Tumhari ek awaz par mai kahi se bhi chala aunga.

Tumhare potton ko humare dosti ki kahaniyan sunaye bagar kahi nahi jayunga.

( refer to episode in which Daya got hit by bullet while saving Abhijeet and Abhijeet wrote his name on the bandage )

Agar mera naam lene se tumhe dukh nahi raha hai to mai yaha apna naam likh deta hu zakhm jaldi sookh jayega.

( refer to old classic episode in which Daya gave gift to a girl )

Dost to hum bhi hai lekin aaj tak hume to kuch nahi diya.

( refer to Daya ' s aggressive behaviour in football match )

( Scolding ) Kitni baar kaha hai maine tumhe gusse par kabo rakho.

( refer to Daya ki dulhan ka raaz )

( Teasingly ) Agar ye Inspector Sahiba mud kar dekhege to inhe tumse pyar ho gaya.

Mudiye

Arey Mud jayiye.

( Both ) Ye nahi ( took a pause ) to koi aur sahi.

( Ye scene maine insta par dekha tha. pata nahi kaunsa episode hai )

Kabhi kabar dusroon ko bhi mauka diya karo apni jaan khatre me dalne ka.

Daya : ( loudly ) Abhijeet nahi. Tum mujhe chodke nahi ja sakte.Nahi.

A loud voice of " Nahi " could be heard. He opened his eyes and saw himself on bed. He wiped the sweat covered on his forehead. He was breathing heavily. He poured water from the jug inside glass and drank it. After drinking the water , he felt better. He looked at the wall clock. The clock was showing 1 A.M. He went to sleep but woke up after some time as the same dream. He woke around 2 - 3 times. He was turning his sides every now and then.

He got up and changed his clothes. He locked his house, took out the bike and started driving to his destination.

He reached the desired place. He was about to ring the bell when he mentally reminded himself that it was late night. So he took out his keys and entered inside house. He went inside the bedroom and found the desired person sleeping on bed cozily.

He took Abhijeet ' s hand and sat beside him. He felt so protective near him. He felt sleepy. So keeping Abhijeet ' s hand as pillow he slept. The nightmares were gone and he had a peaceful sleep.

It was around 8 in morning , when the alarm rang. Daya was irritated at that alarm. He took that phone and switched off the alarm and woke up.

He was waiting for Abhijeet to wake. It was now 10 am. Still Abhijeet had not woken up. He was really tensed as Abhijeet is not a person who sleeps till 10 am. He went inside his room and started patting his cheeks but no effect. He also tried sprinkling some water on his face but the situation remained the same. He with shaky hands took his hand and was checking the pulse.

To his luck, the pulse was present but it was very low. He put Abhijeet inside car and drove towards the hospital. He somehow reached hospital. Abhijeet was taken for treatment. At the same time his phone rang.

He picked up the call without looking caller id and said " Hello. Kya hua ? "

He heard the voice of Acp pradyuman on the other side so said " Sorry sir. Maine bina dekhe hi phone utha liya tha. "

Acp pradyuman : Daya kaha ho tum ?

Daya : Hospital.

Acp pradyuman : Hua kya hai Daya ?

Daya : Sir wo Abhijeet. Pata nahi kya ho gaya hai use. Aap bas hospital aa jayiye jaldi.

Acp pradyuman : Chinta mat karo. Mai aa raha hu abhi. Tum bas address send karo.

He kept the call. Daya sent the address to the Acp pradyuman. He was roaming to and fro inside the hospital. The last night dreams scene was playing in front of his eyes.

Daya : ( to assure himself ) Nahi Abhijeet mujhe chodke nahi jayega.

His wait came to over as the doctor treating abhijeet came out. He went near him and said " Doctor Abhijeet thik hai na ? Use kuch hua to nahi ? "

Doctor : Aap pahle shant ho jayiye.

Wo abhi khatre se bahar hai.

Daya felt relaxed after hearing those words.

Doctor : Dekhiye aap please police ko bula ligiye. Ye ek sucidal attempt hai.

Hearing these words from doctor , he felt a shock. He stood there as it is. The doctor put his hand on shoulder and said " Aap thik hai ? "

Daya came back to present. He was not able to digest the fact that the person like Abhijeet who worked in cid could commit sucide kind of thing.

Daya : Doctor ye aap kya keh rahe hai ?

Doctor : Jee. Ye ek police case hai. Patient ne aapne aap ki jaan lene ki koshish ki hai.

Daya somehow managed to say " Uski jarurat nahi hai. "

He showed him his batch and said " Dekhiye mai senior inspector Daya hu cid se. Jo kuch bhi hai aap mujhe bata sakte hai. "

Doctor : Mujhe pata nahi tha ki aap ek cop hai.

Daya : Kya mai wajah jaan sakta hu ki aap ko aisa kyu lag raha hai ki ye sucide ka case hai ?

Doctor : dekhiye patient ki body me se bohot jyada amount sleeping pills mile hai. Sukr hai ki wo sahi samay par hospital pohoch gaye warna aap bhi samjhte hai.

Again a big shock wave as he didn ' t knew that Abhijeet took sleeping pills.

Doctor saw him again lost in thoughts ho he moved his hands in front of Daya.

Daya snapped out of his thoughts.

Daya : Doctor aap kuch keh rahe the ?

Doctor : Dekhiye abhi wo thik hai. Khatre ki koi baat nahi hai. Bas stomach par jo wound laga hai uska dhyan rakhna hoga. Kafi swelling thi wound par. Khair maine bandage badal diya hai.

Doctor went from the place while Daya was standing there in his pool of thoughts. He didn ' t knew when he himself sat on the bench kept. The only words which he was saying were " Abhijeet , sleeping pills "
