AD Vila…
Another casual evening was slowly moving forward while Daya could be seen sitting casually in the lounge, placing legs on the centre table, watching a political talk show and sipping fresh juice… He was completely involved in the show when his mobile ring tone grabbed his attention and turning off the TV's volume, he grabbed the mobile and…
Daya glancing over the caller ID, attended the call in relaxed smile with: Wah Boss, tumhien kaisy ptta chala k main bore ho raha hoon, jo foren call aa gae tumhari…?
A smiley voice rose from the other end as: Yeh nahin daiwar jee, main hoon call py…
Daya instantly pulled down his legs while sitting straight, listening her voice with: Ooh sorry bhabhi, mujhy lgga Abhi hai…
Bhavna told him in light tone as: Woh main phir sy apna mobile kahin rakh k bhool gae tou inn ka mobile utha lia…
Daya chuckled softly with: Achha kia aap ny bhabhi… (And then asked her in concerned tone as…) Wasey bhabhi sb theek hai na, itni raat ko call aai aap ki…?
Bhavna replied as: Jee daiwar jee, sb theek hai, main farigh thi tou yunhi call ker li aap ko, socha haal chal hi pouchh lun, doctor uncle sy baat hoye bhi doo teen din ho gaye mujhy… (Added in confused tone as…) Wasey zada raat ho gae hai kya, wahan tou iss samey aath ho rahy hoon gy na…?
Daya nodded while replying as: Jee bhabhi, yahan ki nahin, main tou Mumbai ki baat ker raha tha… (Added casually as…) Aur doctor sahab ko tou aaj jaldi neend aa gae tou dinner ker k soo gaye woh, main kal yaad sy baat kerwata hoon aap ki unn sy…
Bhavna nodded with: Ooh achha achha, sahi… Chalien koe masla nahin, kal baat ho jaye gi uncle sy, iss samey hum dono baatien ker laity hain…
Daya chuckled with: Yeh bohut achha idea hai bhabhi… Btain phir, main tou Aryaan k intizar mein jaag raha hoon, aap kyun jaag rahi hain ab tk…?
Bhavna replied smilingly as: Main Eshaan k intizar mein jaag rahi hoon, woh wapis aa raha hai aaj Moscow sy, thori daer mein land kerny wali hai uss ki flight…
Daya nodded while asking in confused tone as: Lekin bhabhi, Eshaan ny tou pursoon nahin aana tha wapis…?
Bhavna nodded while replying as: Pehly pursoon hi aana tha lekin bs aaj kal k moody bchchy, kal kehny lgga k concert tou ho gaya hai, tou bs ab woh bhi wapis aa raha hai…
Daya chuckled with: Homesick ho gaya ho ga shaid woh bhabhi, aakhir ander sy hai tou woh aik chhota sa bchcha hi… (Bhavna smiled lovingly where he asked her as…) Tou aap log iss samey airport py hi hain kya…?
Bhavna slightly shook her head with: Mohina gae hai apny Dadu k sath, ussy welcome kerny…
Daya asked her in light-confused tone as: Aap aur Abhi nahin gaye…?
Bhavna replied in flow as: Nahin, mujhy tou dinner ki taiyari kerni thi aur yeh sooye hoye hain…
Daya getting more confused, asked her as: Bhabhi, Eshaan aaj nearly aik hafty baad wapis aa raha hai, Abhi janta hai yeh baat aur uss ko lainy nahin gaya tou samjh aati hai baat, lekin woh soo raha hai…? (Taking a momentary pause, asked in complete serious tone as…) Bhabhi, sach mein sb theek hai na wahan py…?
Bhavna, who was already regretting on saying that as was strictly asked by Abhijeet, not to tell to Daya anything, tried to manage with: Jee Daiwar jee, aap yunhi zada soch rahy hain… Main bs inhien uthany hi aai thi, socha pehly Eshaan ka plane land ker jaye, phir jgga dun gi inhien…
Daya still not satisfied, as he could clearly sense the tension from her voice, replied her as: Bhabhi please, mujhy kuchh theek nahin lg raha… Koe tension ho gae hai kya Eshaan aur Abhi mein…?
Bhavna instantly shook her head in great disagreement with: Arrey nahin daiwar jee, easa kuchh nahin hai… (Tried to sound relax with…) Achha chalien, main tou inhien yun bhi jggany lggi thi tou ab thora jaldi jgga daiti hoon, aap khud baat ker lien ta k aap ko vishvas ho jaye…
Daya hurriedly stopped her with: Bhabhi nahin please, rehny dien ussy sooya… I am sorry, main hi shaid kuchh zada sochny lgga, baat tou hue thi mairi uss sy aaj subah hi… (Added in casual tone as…) Achha bhabhi aap bhi busy hoon gi dinner ki taiyari mein, tou aap bhi free ho jaien, phir jb Eshaan aata hai tou baat hoti hai dobara, tb tk Aryaan bhi aa jaye ga shaid…
Bhavna nodded, like she was waiting for this thing with: Theek hai daiwar jee, baad mein baat hoti hai phir, namasty…
Daya greeted her back and the call ended from both sides…
Daya, who was standing now, had instantly dialled another number while strolling in the lounge, impatiently waiting for the call to be picked up by the callee when soon the call got attended from the other side and…
Freddy's worried voice rose as: Hello sir, itni raat gaye call ker rahy hain aap…? Aap theek hain na sir…?
Daya, who, after talking with Bhavna was now satisfied from Eshaan's angle, though still restless from Abhijeet's angle thought to play his cards sensibly as he had no idea either his doubt was right or wrong, so he backfired the query with: Kyun Freddy, main tumhien kyun btaon k main theek hoon ya nahin, tum log mujhy wahan ka kuchh bttaty ho kya…?
Freddy asked in confusion as: Kya matlab sir, kya nahin btaya hum ny…?
Daya coming directly on the point, instantly asked him as: Abhi k barey mein btaya kya tum mein sy kisi ny bhi mujhy…?
And the few moments' silence from the other side had confirmed his doubt that there was indeed something wrong with his brother when…
Freddy's fumbled voice rose as: Abh… Abhijeet sir k barey mein…? Unn k barey mein kya btana tha sir…?
Daya getting angry now, replied in stiff tone as: Kuchh nahin btana tha, tabhi tou kuchh btaya nahin na… Lekin ussy btta daina k main kal aa raha hoon Mumbai…
Freddy hurriedly tried as: Sir, easi koe tension wali baat nahin hai, sach… Hum log hain na sb yahan py sir k sath… Aur ab tou doctors bhi bilkul satisfied hain sir ki taraf sy, tabhi tou hospital sy bhi discharge ker dia kal unhien…
Daya, who was getting more and more shocked listening the details as he was having no idea what had actually happened and was just talking in random, now got really worried sensing something serious had happened with Abhijeet, hence without giving the other person much time to think…
Daya instantly asked in complete straight tone as: Freddy, kya hua tha Abhi ko…?
Freddy replied in his flow as: Accident… (And the very next moment getting shocked on what the query was, exclaimed as…) Matlab aap janty hi nahin thy k Abhijeet sir ko hua kya hai…?
Daya completely ignoring the query replied in complete serious and composed tone as: Mujhy puri detail jan'nni hai, Fredricks… Aur uss sy bhi pehly mujhy yeh jan'nna hai k Aryaan iss sb k barey mein janta tha kya…?
Freddy, who had really sensed the heat in the query, replied in calm smile as: Aap ko lagta hai kya sir k apny Ad'da k barey mein iss qisem ki khaber milny k baad bhi woh bilkul casual reh sakta hai…?
Daya's stiff facial expressions relaxed a little with: Aur doctor sahab…?
Freddy slightly shook his head with: Nahin sir, unhien bhi nahin btaya warna…
Daya completed in tease as: Warna mujhy ptta chal jata, hai na…? (Freddy kept silence where inhaling deeply, he asked him as…) Accident kaisy aur kb hua uss ka…?
Freddy replied in composed tone as: Teen din pehly, sir… (Giving him the details, added as…) Abhijeet sir ko milna tha kisi sy mall mein tou wahan sy nikalty samey achanak chakker aaya sir ko aur blackout ho gaya sb… Sir uss samey serhiyon py thy tou sambhal nahin paye aur paon slip ho gaya sir ka… (Concluded consolingly as…) Lekin bhagwan ka shuker hai k zada serhiyan nahin thien tou koe gehri chot nahin aai, aur doctors ny bhi sir ko ghar bhaij dia kal…
Daya, who was listening the details getting more and more tensed, replied in composed anger as: Uss ko doctors ny ghar kyun bhaija ho ga Fredricks, yeh tum bhi janty ho aur main bhi… (Freddy thought of keeping silence as a better option where composing himself, he asked in worry as…) Lekin ussy yun achanak chakker aaye kyun Freddy…? Kya btaya doctors ny…?
Freddy replied in silent tone as: Sir, yeh srr dard, chakker aana, blackout hona, yeh sb Abhijeet sir k liye kuchh naya tou nahin hai na… (Daya became quiet on his place where he added in same quiet tone as…) Doctors ka bhi yehi kehna hai k Abhijeet sir ki case history k karen hi hua yeh sb… (Complained him as…) Sir ko jb bhi doctor k paas jany ka kehty hain tou mazaq mein taal daity hain hamesha k iss srr dard sy tou unn ki purani dosti hai… (Added in helpless-frustrated tone as…) Aur ya phir keh daity hain k humien faltu mein tension lainy ka shoq hai… Maanty hi nahin hain sir kisi ki…
Daya replied in anger-filled-frustrated tone as: Eshaan aa raha hai na, ab daikhna kaisy nahin maanta tumhara Abhijeet sir… (Irresistibly a curve formed on Freddy's face listening to that tone where he asked him as…) Eshaan aa bhi issi liye raha na jaldi…? Ussy ptta chal gaya hai Abhi ka…?
Freddy nodded slightly with: Jee sir, kal concert k baad Mohina sy baat hue tou uss k mun sy nikal gaya… Woh bhi bohut naraz hai hum sb sy, aaj aa raha hai, sb py brrsy ga ab…
Daya replied in straight tone as: Brrasna banta bhi hai uss ka, Freddy…
Freddy smiled lightly with: Irady tou aap k bhi kuchh easey hi lgg rahy hain mujhy sir…
Daya inhaled a deep breath with: Main yahan itni dour baith k kya ker sakta hoon, Freddy…? (Heaved a deep sigh with…) Khair thank you mujhy yeh sb bttany k liye… Phir baat hoti hai, good night…
Freddy getting well that now he needed some time to calm down himself, replied in caring tone as: Aryaan ko pyar dijiye ga sir, aur zada preshan nahin hoye ga please, Abhijeet sir behter hai ab kafi, good night…
And he ended the call where Daya placing the mobile on the table, sat on a nearby couch while spreading hands on his face, exhaling a heavy breath… Closing his eyes while resting his head on the head-rest, he was silently busy in pressing his forehead and eyes when soon heard a well recognized car horn and minutes' later, car parking sound, but he did not move from his place…
When soon heard…
Aryaan's carefree voice as: Hello Dad, look who's back… Have… (And getting stopped right there seeing his father sitting there like that, he hurried ahead and placing his office-bag aside, got seated in front of him while asking worriedly as…) Kya hua Dad, aap ki tabiyt theek hai na…?
Daya, who was now sitting in composed posture, nodded while looking at him with: Mujhy Mumbai jana hai baita…
Aryaan asked in shocked-confusion with: Iss tarhan achanak, sb theek hai na Dad…?
Daya nodded with: Hmm, aap flights check ker k first available flight py maira ticket book kerwao aur Mumbai mein kisi ko mtt btana…
And giving a light pat on his cheek, he stood up and left to do his packing, where Aryaan didn't follow him, knowing well that it won't give him any answers… Instead taking out his mobile, he did what his father asked him to do and then grabbing his office-bag, left towards his room to change in casuals…
Soon he returned to find Daya waiting for him over dinner table so he joined him there and…
Aryaan told him in somewhat casual tone as: Dad, sb sy nearest available flight, aaj raat doo bjjy hai, main ny ussi mein ticket book kerwa dia hai aap k liye… (Taking a momentary pause, asked as…) Dad, hum bhi chalien aap k sath…?
Daya slightly shook his head with: Doctor sahab ki appointment hai kal regular check-up ki, aur maira foren jana zarori hai… (Aryaan nodded understandably so he added as…) Aap Paul aur Steve k sath mil k projects ko look after kerty rehna, koe problem hua tou call ker laina, wasey tou Paul ho ga hi, he'll guide you two…
Aryaan nodded with: Jee Dad, Paul uncle is really taking great care in making his son Steve, the same help for me, as Paul uncle remains for you… (Daya gave him an agreed smile, when, while looking around he added as…) Wasey Gramps aaye nahin ab tk… (Was about to stand with…) Main bula k…
Daya stopped him softly with: Baita, woh soo rahy hain… Doctor sahab ko jaldi neend aa gae tou hum ny aaj pehly dinner ker lia, aap ker lo…
Aryaan nodded in his flow while saying casually as: Achha hua yeh tou Dad k aap dinner ker chuky hain warna tou thori daer mein aap ki flight… (And finally he stopped realizing the flow of his talks and he looked at his father to find him, struggling to compose himself, hence clearing his throat, Aryaan tried to change the topic with…) Lekin ab aap mujhy company tou dy hi sakty hain na Dad… (And pouring fresh juice in a glass, he forwarded that towards him with…) Please…
Daya giving him a small smile, grabbed the juice glass from him where Aryaan smiling sweetly at him, got busy in serving himself and then he remained busy in his try of keeping his father involved with himself, sharing how his day had gone… While Daya remained sitting there, mostly silent, listening to his kid's talks while sipping juice… After dinner, Daya left towards the lounge while the helpers got busy in cleaning the table…
Soon Aryaan joined his father there to find him watching a golf match on the TV and hence, moving ahead he too got seated beside him quietly, grabbing a lemon tea cup in his hand as his father had asked him not to bring it for him… Aryaan tried to keep silence, after getting only silence as a response of his talks on the dinner table when finally after few moments…
Aryaan surrendered to his curiousity with a reluctant call of: Dad…!
Daya sighed deeply knowing the meaning of that call very well, hence replied with: Abhi ka accident ho gaya tha…
Aryaan's eyes turned wide open in shock and had instantly turned completely towards him with: What…! Kb, kaisy…? Kaisy hain ab Ad'da…? Doctors ny kya kaha…?
Daya cut him in composed tone as: Relax kid, kuchh din ho gaye hain uss k accident ko, ab ghar py hai… Slip ho gaya tha stairs sy…
Aryaan uttered unbelievably as: Kuchh din bhi ho gaye aur kisi ny btaya bhi nahin humien…?! (And the instant stiffness coming on his father's face listening to that comment really made him realize that what the actual reason was behind that composed anger, so he tried to divert the topic with…) Chalien shuker hai k Ad'da ghar aa gaye hain, theek ho gaye hoon na tabhi doctors… (And he stopped receiving an angry glance from his father so getting shut, just hid his eyes from him, who jerking his head, turned his gaze away again… Where Aryaan leaving his try of taking his Ad'da's side, tried another approach to calm down Daya's anger while trying to involve him in talks with himself with…) Achha Dad, main subah Gramps ko kya bttaon ga…?
Daya replied annoyingly as: Btta daina Mumbai gaya hoon, pehli baar tou nahin ja raha na iss tarhan akela…
Aryaan replied in meek voice, mostly in tongue as: Lekin yun, Gramps ko miley bina tou first time hi ja rahy hain…
Daya glared him with: Mairy samny zada zaban chillany ki zarort nahin hai, pehly hi dimagh bohut kharab hai maira iss samey… Chup chap baith sakty ho baitho warna kamry mein jao apny…
Aryaan getting it pretty well now that the anger bar of his father was indeed pretty high, and even a valid query could give him a good snub, kept shut, taking it as a safe option, though in his mind, he had already started working on some story he was going to tell to his Gramps about Daya's sudden leaving for Mumbai…
As around three years back, DUO had finally succeeded in agreeing oldie DUO to live with them… Initially the idea was that they would shift in Abhijeet's home as Daya though really wanted to, but wasn't sure that they would agree to go with him… But oldie DUO agreed and they came with him in Nottingham where ACP sir couldn't adjust because of having so many memories back in Mumbai and they didn't force him to stay… Hence within a month, he returned in Abhijeet's home and settled there where Dr. Salunkhy preferred to remain with Daya and the main reason was his grand-child… He was having some special kind of affiliation with Aryaan, every time he saw him, he reminded him of someone, though he knew that Aryaan was having no relation with her but he just couldn't help that feeling, those logics, because neither everything in life can be explained through logics, nor it has to… During all those years, Aryaan too had come really close to him and now, every now and then, the two could be seen talking him about Dr. Tarika, only because his Gramps love to talk about her…
Where after around a minute's complete silence…
Daya's relatively calm voice rose as: Kehna k Mumbai mein jo ghar hai, ussy ly k kuchh legal issue aa raha tha tou raat mein Abhi ka phone aaya aur mujhy urgently nikalna prra… (Aryaan was looking at his father in real surprise seeing how easily he came up with such a perfect excuse when getting no reply from the latter, he turned his gaze towards his son and reading his eyes, he disappointedly again turned his gaze towards the TV screen with…) Mun bnd ker lo, bilkul bewakoof lg rahy ho aap…
Aryaan getting that tease, instantly closed his mouth while protesting as: Dad…! (Daya completely ignoring him remained busy in looking at the TV screen, still struggling to divert his mind where he told him as…) Aur Dad main khud jaon ga aap ko airport drop kerny, Okay…?
And a silent node in reply made him clear that the other person wasn't really willing to talk at the moment and his any further try could give him, a much bigger snub than the previous one, so surrendering his efforts, he too turned his gaze towards the TV screen and started watching the golf match while quietly sipping his tea…
Soon the two had left the home towards the airport and seeing off Daya who had boarded his flight from Nottingham to London, Aryaan returned home, without telling anyone about Daya's flight, as was strictly instructed by the latter…
India…
Mumbai…
Abhijeet's Home…
On the other side, soon the car was parked inside Abhijeet's home from where Eshaan along with other two got down and seeing the young fella's face, it was getting clear to all, to keep a safe distance from him at the moment…
Where Eshaan directly entered inside, following ACP sir and Mohina, whose faces were really telling that they were already showered with the fiery raindrops of that young fire, who was looking completely ready to meet the main person behind all that…
When seeing him coming…
Bhavna moved ahead in affectionate smile with: Welcome back baita… (And she hugged him tightly, who hugged her back while sidewise placing his bag aside where separating from the hug, she smoothly cupped his face and placing a soft kiss on his forehead, said lovingly as…) Congratulations, itna successful concert kerny py…
Eshaan giving her a forced smile, directly came on the point with: Papa kahan hain, Mummy…?
Bhavna looked at him in disappointed smile with: Medicine ly k soo rahy hain, subah lrr laina unn sy…
Eshaan replied in displeased tone as: Sirf Papa sy nahin lrrna mujhy… (Bhavna just hid her smile getting his meaning really well where he added in same tone as…) Zarori tou nahin hai na Mummy k aap Papa ki hr baat manien… (Concluded complainingly with…) Aap sb Papa ki sb baatien mantty hain, tabhi woh itni mnn-mani kerny lggy hain…
Bhavna glared him with: Eshaan…!
Eshaan still looking angry, replied her as: Main fresh ho k aata hoon…
And grabbing his travelling bag, he left from there still grumbling in displeasure while others just heaved disappointed sighs…
When ACP sir left towards the lounge where Mohina soon joined her mother in the kitchen… Eshaan after getting fresh directly made his way in his parents' room, though remained really careful towards his father's sleep…
Abhijeet's Room…
Eshaan after opening the door carefully, entered inside to find the dim light bulb was already switched on in the room… So moving ahead, he silently turned towards the bed to find his father sleeping there because of the medicines' effect… Eshaan sitting beside him, looked towards his father's face for few moments and then softly touched his forehead where the bandage was present and then lovingly creased his hair, who kept sleeping there peacefully while…
Eshaan whispered in light smile as: Aap sy milny ka itna mnn ho raha tha Papa k subah tk ka wait nahin hua mujh sy… (Softly placing his hand on his father's cheek, added in displeased tone as…) Lekin iss ka yeh matlab nahin hai k main aap py ghussa nahin hoon… (While carefully grabbing his hand in his both hands, he whispered childishly to him as…) Subah hony dien Papa, bohut lrrae kerni hai aap sy, taiyar rehiye ga bs…
And he placed a soft kiss on his father's hand…
When the same moment, the room door got opened with extreme care and Mohina could be seen standing on the door step who with hand's signal asked him to come out, and receiving an assuring node in reply, she left from there, keeping the door open…
Where standing from the bed, Eshaan carefully rested back his father's hand on the bed and then bowing over him, placed a soft kiss on his forehead with a whisper of "Love you" and then adjusting the quilt, left the room while closing the room door behind him…
Lounge…
Eshaan entered inside the lounge, to find the family waiting for him on the dinner and giving them a small smile, he joined them there… Once updating him about Abhijeet's injuries and doctor's response, they successfully made him busy with themselves in light talks, asking him queries about his Moscow' stay…
After having their dinner, ACP sir went in his room to sleep, returning good night wishes to the others while Eshaan had also left in his room and the other two remained busy in cleaning the table and then kitchen, and finally the two too moved in their respective rooms…
Soon Bhavna opened her room door again while grabbing the empty water jug when got shocked seeing Eshaan standing just at their door step who too was puzzled seeing her there as he was standing there, confused either to knock their room door or not because of knowing about his father's sleep really well and now seeing his mother there, he was a little taken aback when…
Bhavna after closing the room door, moved a little aside and then turning towards her son, asked him as: Kya hua baita, yahan kya ker rahy ho aap…?
Eshaan, not knowing what to reply, shrugged while making an excuse with: Woh Mummy, main bttany aaya tha k mairi Chachu sy tou baat nahin ho saki lekin bhaiya sy ho gae hai, unhon ny btaya k Chachu medicine ly k soo gaye hain…
Bhavna, who had asked him to call them on dinner table, nodded with: Chalo theek hai, koe baat nahin, subah baat ker laina apny Chachu sy, ab ja k soo jao aap bhi…
And giving a soft pat on his cheek she was going to leave towards the kitchen when feeling Eshaan still standing there looking confused, she stopped again and…
Bhavna called him softly as: Eshaan…! (Eshaan looked up at her so she asked him softly as…) Kya baat hai baita…? Kuchh aur bhi kehna chah rahy ho kya…?
Eshaan nodded and the next moment, the words came out from his mouth, had really deepened his mother's affectionate smile who looked at him lovingly listening to his childish toned demand as "Mujhy aaj Papa k paas soona hai Mummy, please…"
And Bhavna grabbing his face in one hand, squeezed it lovingly with: Aik taraf itna ghussa apny Papa py aur dosri taraf soona bhi inhien k paas hai, hmm… (Eshaan just gave her a sheepish smile where she smilingly freed his face with…) Jao, soo jao ja k unn k paas lekin dihan sy, ptta hai na unn ki neend ka… (Eshaan nodded in assurance, where she softly creased his hair with…) Subah jb woh uthien gy tou itna pyara sa surprise unn ka wait ker raha ho ga… (Concluded playfully as…) Ptta nahin hai na unhien k unn ka yeh bigra nawab jaldi aa gaya hai wapis…
Eshaan instantly protested as: Mummy…!
Bhavna chuckled with: Jao ab, main pani ly k aati hoon…
Eshaan nodded in happy smile and then wishing her "Good night", left inside their room cautiously while Bhavna left towards the kitchen…
Soon Bhavna returned to find Eshaan lying in the middle of the bed, beside his father, leaving space for her too where Bhavna, after placing the water jug on the bed-side-table, just with gestures, told him to move back and go to sleep with a relax mind as she was going in Mohina's room to sleep… And receiving a node from the latter, she left from there knowing well that in the morning, the two would be wanted some "We" time and hence, she decided to give them that space, even without them asking…
Next morning rose, the weather was really pleasant, birds were chirping and welcoming the new morning in the same way, they used to do every morning…
Where Bhavna very carefully opened their room door and looked towards the bed, to find both father and son were enjoying deep sound sleep, bringing a light smile on her face, who looked towards the wall clock to find still some time left for Abhijeet to wake up so she directly went to freshen-up and change her night gown… After returning, throwing a soft smiley glance on the two, she left the room with the same silence she had entered with…
Coming directly in the kitchen she started making some light breakfast for Abhijeet, who was making the simple task of taking breakfast, more and more difficult with every passing day, by denying to take porridge, cereals and pudding type things, saying he was fed-up with them now… But thanks to Mohina, who eventually made him take those things, without much argument and hence, she was calmly busy in making banana custard for him today…
Abhijeet's Room…
On the other side, inside their room, Abhijeet slowly started waking up and in that he moved his gaze to his side, feeling someone present there and got confused seeing Eshaan sleeping there… Where jerking his head softly, Abhijeet rubbed his eyes while trying to wake up completely thinking himself imagining Eshaan lying there and hence, he again looked in the direction and the scene present in front of him didn't change, telling him that no, he wasn't imagining anything and…
A happy whisper came out from his mouth as: Eshaan…!
And instantly slipping towards his side a little, taking support from his left elbow, he lifted his upper body a little and with great love, spread hand on his face and head and then bowing over his son's face, placed a soft kiss near his eye, who moved a little in his sleep, having a light smile on his face now…
Abhijeet was smilingly busy in rubbing his kid's head, seeing him sleeping there peacefully, when his memory rewind a little, taking him around two years back when his son had passed out from the university as a certified aerospace engineer…
And just a few months after that, Abhijeet had received a call from one of his friends, telling him that some producer friend of his had seen Eshaan's different videos on net, recorded on friends' gatherings and different competitions, so after tracing him down, he now had requested to meet him… Abhijeet responded positively and the meeting held between both the parties and the producer was really willing to just sign the contract with Eshaan right there that he had already made that contract and brought him with himself but Eshaan requested for some time to think because he didn't want to look too desperate for a break, and not to mention, he was feeling greatly confused too…
And when they returned home, Abhijeet did a sitting with his kid where…
Abhijeet's Study…
Abhijeet and Eshaan could be seen sitting across the table when…
Abhijeet asked him casually as: Phir baita, kya socha aap ny…?
Eshaan looked at him blankly with: Ptta nahin Papa, I am really confused… Main tou soch raha tha k further studies k liye admission ly lun aur ab yeh offer… (Looked at him hopefully with…) Aap btain please, kya kron main…?
Abhijeet inhaled while repling politely as: Bchchy, jahan tk aagy perhny ki baat hai tou ager aap ny sach mein kahin admission laina hota, tou ab tk ly lia hota, as its been quite a few months since you have completed your bachelors degree, aur ager ab tk nahin lia tou matlab clear hai, you don't really want that… (Eshaan unintentionally nodded, agreeing with his father, when soon realizing his responce, he instantly hid his eyes, bringing a small smile on his father's face, who asked him softly as…) Ab ager main aap sy aik baat pouchhon tou sach bttao gy…? (Eshaan nodded in assurance so he asked him as…) You are in your job for some time now, does it still feels like a job to you…? Or you feel like, you are for the morning so you can go back at work…?
Eshaan smiled confusingly as: Papa, though I like my work, but it still is a job aur aik job py jany k liye koe itna excited kaisy ho sakta hai, after all it's just a work place…
Abhijeet's face was now having a complete relax shade as he had got what he was looking for, Eshaan himself had just answered his own confusion hence…
Abhijeet replied in light smile as: Bilkul excited ho sakta hai baita, ager uss ki job uss ki life, uss ka passion ho… I always waited for the morning to go back to my work place, ager easa na hota tou retirement k baad bhi, bahany na dhond raha hota wapis Bureau jany k…
Eshaan replied smilingly as: Yeh tou wasey bilkul sach hai Papa… Aaj bhi jb Funny uncle aap k sath koe case discuss kerty hain, aap aik dmm sy itny involve aur excited ho jaty hain, it always amaze me… Shaid aap apny kaam ko ly k bohut zada dedicated rahy hain na hamesha, tabhi…
Abhijeet slightly shook his head in soft smile with: It's not about dedication, baita, it's about ambition, it's about knowing what you actually want from your life, what is your role to perform in this world to make it a better place… And the ones who find these answers, for them, their work place just become like a second home, from which they never want to go away… And as they love what they do, dedication automatically comes in whatever they do…
Eshaan, who was listening to his father with concentration, wearing a constant smile because of clearly seeing that shine came in his eyes and hidden happiness reflecting in his tone while talking about his passion for what he lived and loved after his family…
Demanded in great hope as: Papa, mujhy bhi mairi aankhon mein yehi shine chahiye please, jo aap k aankhon mein aati hai, jb bhi aap Bureau ki baat kerty hain…
Abhijeet chuckled lovingly listening that strange demand and replied as: Baita yeh shine tou mairi hai, aap ko apni shine khud dhondni ho gi, haan, rasta dikhany k liye main hamesha hoon aap k sath…
Eshaan instantly asked in confusion as: Kya matlab Papa, main kuchh bhi nahin samjha…
Abhijeet getting serious replied as: Samjh jao gy lekin filhal, kal hi apni firm mein resignation notice dy doo…
Eshaan instantly exclaimed in shock as: Kya…! Papa itni brri international firm hai, aap ko ptta hai na kitny logon ka dream hai uss company mein kaam kerna aur mairy apply kerny py, mairy final exams sy pehly hi maira appointment letter mairy hath mein tha, aur aap keh rahy hain main resign ker dun wahan sy…?
Abhijeet, who was patiently listening to his son, replied in calm tone as: Bilkul, main bilkul yehi keh raha hoon… Bohut sy logon ka dream ho ga uss company mein kaam kerna, lekin aap ka nahin hai… Ager hota tou itny time baad bhi aap ki job sirf job na hoti, aur ager hai, then simply you are not at the right place…
Eshaan asked in a little hesitant tone as: Papa, chhution ka option nahin use ker sakty kya hum…?
Abhijeet shook his head with: Chhutian lien tou aap k mind mein rahy ga k aap ny wapis jana hai, jb k aap ny wapis nahin jana, sirf aagy berhna hai…
Eshaan still not convinced, presented his actual doubt as: Aur ager yeh job chhorny k baad mujhy kahin aur job na mili tou…?
Abhijeet making his face straight, replied in complete relax tone as: Yeh tou koe masla hi nahin hai… (Looked at him with mischievous glint present in his eyes with…) Main apny itny pyary baity ko sb sy achha aur mehnga wala, rickshaw ya taxi ly k dun ga, jo maira baita kahey…
It took Eshaan few moments to get what his father had actually said to him and once he got that…
Eshaan instantly protested loudly as: Papa…! (Abhijeet laughed sweetly seeing Eshaan's face who was now busy in grumbling and then looked at him displeasingly with…) Aur ab easi bhi koe baat nahin hai, itna achha academic record hai maira, kisi bhi achhi firm mein job mil jaye gi mujhy, hunh…
Abhijeet asked him in disappointed smile as: Jb yeh baat ptta hai tou easa bewakoofon wala sawal kyun ker rahy ho…? (Eshaan not having any valid reply for the query, just thought to remain busy with his grumbling where Abhijeet forwarded a file towards him with…) Aur ab yeh file pakro, contract perho aur sign ker doo…
Eshaan, who had already grabbed the opened file from his father, looked at him with: Yeh wohi Mr. Akhil ki film ka contract…
Abhijeet nodded and nodding him back, opening the pen, he was going to sign the contract when…
Abhijeet instantly stopped him with: Eshaan rukko… (Eshaan stopping there looked at him in question so he asked him as…) Main ny contract perhny ka kaha tha na, perha hai aap ny…?
Eshaan replied casually as: Aap ny perh lia tha na Papa, mairy perhny ki kya zarort hai…?
Abhijeet replied him in straight tone as: Zarorat hai, tabhi keh raha hoon, bchchy… Koe bhi paper baghair perhy sign mtt kerna life mein kabhi… Ab aaram sy contract perho pehly, phir sign kerna…
Eshaan giving him a node, got busy in reading the contract where Abhijeet remained sitting there while observing his kid, as though he had already read the whole contract in their way back to home but still he wanted Eshaan to read it himself too… Because he knew it that he won't be everywhere with his kid to keep a check for him and as he was entering in his professional life now, then he wanted to make him ready for it, but for now he could teach his child and that's exactly what he was doing, preparing his son for the future…
Eshaan after reading the whole contract, looked up at his father with: Papa, main ny bhi perh lia contract, theek lg raha hai mujhy bhi…
Abhijeet nodded with: Sign ker doo phir, baita…
Eshaan giving him a node, turned his gaze back towards the papers and signed on the required places…
Eshaan closing the pen, forwarded the contract towards his father for a final check who after going through it, looked at his kid, nodding him in encouraging smile, bringing a relax smile on the latter's face too…
Eshaan asked in reluctant tone as: Papa you sure nah k singing hi maira ambition hai…?
Abhijeet smiled softly with: It doesn't matter what I think baita, the thing matters is, what you think…
Eshaan replied innocently as: Yehi tou samjh nahin aa raha, Papa…
Abhijeet smiled affectionately with: Aa jaye ga, just give yourself some time and don't over-think, hmm… (Eshaan nodded in light smile where seeing a tense-confused shade still present on his kid's face, he added in light tone as…) Just relax now son, js rooz aap k gany ki recording start ho gi, ghar aany k baad khud sy pouchhna k aap ko wapis jany ki jaldi hai ya nahin, aur ager jawab negative aaya tou there are still a lot of other options waiting for you… (Winked him smilingly as…) Jb tk mairy bchchy ko apni aankhon mein woh shine nahin nazar aa jaye gi, I won't let you settle down in any profession, promise…
Eshaan chuckled with: Thank you Papa, I needed this assurance…
Abhijeet stood up in light smile with: Achha ab jaldi sy mujhy aik pyara sa hug doo, aakhir mairy bchchy ny aaj apni life ka first legal singing contract sign kia hai, hmm…
Eshaan, who was already standing listening to his father, moving ahead, just hugged his father tightly with "Love you, Papa", who had squeezed him inside his arms with "Congratulations, baita…" And feel of the grip getting tightened around him after that wish, really told Abhijeet that he was right seeing that shine present in his son's eyes while returning the contract after signing it, though he didn't tell him that because he wanted him to find it, by his own… And just few weeks later, when the recording started, his kid had also realized it soon enough and then he never looked back, conquering one milestone after another, with his elder's blessings and family's complete support…
Abhijeet was deeply involved in remembering all that, when snapped out from it, listening to the ringing alarm, hence instantly though unintentionally, he turned to check his own mobile, resulted a slight jerk to his leg and a muffled groan came out from his mouth, and as always, he managed well to suppress it…
Where on the other side, as soon as the alarm rang, Eshaan sprang up on the bed like some current had passed through his body and without looking towards anything, he instantly turned towards his side's side-table and grabbing the mobile, switched off the alarm, telling his father that how much alert towards the alarm he was, even in his sleep…
Heaving a relax sigh, Eshaan carefully turned his neck towards his father's side to check if he remained successful not to interrupt his sleep or not, to find the smiling figure half-lying there and was looking towards his youth, holding pure love in his eyes…
And Eshaan instantly exclaimed as: Papa, aap jaag gaye, sorry main…
And he stopped there in warm smile, seeing his father's opened arms telling him to just stop talking and give him a tight hug, hence moving ahead, he just hid himself inside his father's loving shell, who placing a soft kiss on his head, just squeezed him inside the shell, telling well that how much he too had missed his kid, to whom he was meeting after five whole days…
Eshaan, placing a soft kiss on his father's cheek, smoothly moved back and sitting there, grabbed his hand caringly with: Good morning Papa, ab kaisy hain aap…?
Abhijeet gave him a beautiful-fresh smile with: Ab tou aik dmm theek…
Eshaan glancing over the walking stick placed right beside his father's side, looked back at him while asking in disappointed tone as: Aik dmm theek…?
The curve deepened on the latter's face, getting the query really well and hence replied in relax tone as: Kuchh nahin hai yar, yunhi paon halka sa murr gaya tou doctor ny stick pakra di foren hi, shaid woh mujhy borha feel kerwa chah rahy thy… (Winked at him naughtily with…) Must have gotten jealous, seeing me running around…
Eshaan, who was getting more and more disappointed listening to the details, replied as: Papa, no more mazaq… And I know, aap ka paon sirf twist nahin hua, you are having a hair line fracture…
Abhijeet tried as: Arrey yar…
Eshaan cut him there in straight tone as: After breakfast, you are going with me to the hospital, and going to have your MRI, CT scan and all the tests, doctors will recommend…
Abhijeet, whose eyes were getting widened in shock, listening to the other person, instantly protested with: Main nahin jany wala kahin bhi… (Jerked his head annoyingly with…) Bukhar check kerwany jao tou yeh doctors, TB ka certificate dy k wapis bhaijty hain, main tou nahin ja raha bilkul bhi…
Eshaan, who was giving him a complete relax look, replied in calm tone as: Hum ja rahy hain Papa aur ager aap khud sy nahin jaien gy tou jb aap medicines ly k soo rahy hoon gy, main tb ly jaon ga… (While getting up from the bed, concluded with…) I am your son, Papa, once I made up my mind, I too do it…
And he gave a sweet smile to his shocked father, who really knew that determined look present in his son's eyes, as he had seen it countless times in the mirror…
Where moving towards his father's side, Eshaan smoothly removed the quilt from his father and then spreading his palm in front of him, helped him to stand… Feeling a new energy in himself, Abhijeet stood up with his kid's support and then left towards the bathroom, where on the door-step, Eshaan grabbed him his walking stick which he was grabbing till then, and Abhijeet giving a light pat on his cheek left inside…
Eshaan moving back, first grabbed his mobile and dialling a number, started waiting and after the call got attended from the other end, he talked for a minute or so and then ending the call with thanks, placed back the mobile and turning towards the bed, started folding the quilts… He had just got freed after folding the quilts when the room door opened and he turned towards the door to see Bhavna there, so moved ahead and…
Eshaan in light smile greeted her as: Good morning, Mummy…
Bhavna smilingly ruffled his hair with: Good morning baita, mil lia apny Papa sy…? (Eshaan nodded sweetly so she asked in same smiley tone as…) Aur lrr bhi lia…?
A shy grin came on the kid's face and he shook his head with: Nahin, lrrae nahin ki… (And then turning serious, told her as…) Mummy, mairi baat ho gae hai hospital mein, main aaj breakfast k baad, Papa ko ly jaon ga, tests k liye…
Bhavna nodded understandably with: Bohut achha kro gy… (Softly patted his cheek with…) Aur ab ja k fresh ho jao aap bhi, phir nashta kerty hain, hmm…
Eshaan giving her a small smiley node left from there where Bhavna got busy in her casual routine works when turned listening some voice and seeing Abhijeet coming towards the room…
Bhavna left towards him with: Good morning… (Abhijeet nodded in light smile where grabbing his other arm, she added as…) Aap ko dard tou nahin hai zada…?
Abhijeet slightly shook his head with: Nahin, ab tou kafi behter hoon…
Bhavna while helping him to sit on the bed, replied smilingly as: Hmm, ab tou behter hoon gy hi aap… (While pouring water in the glass, added as…) Bigra nawab jo wapis aa gaya hai aap ka…
Abhijeet chuckled while grabbing the forwarded water glass with: Nawab tou hai lekin bigra nahin hai… (And after taking a sip, asked her as…) Aur tum logon mein sy kisi ny bhi mujhy btaya kyun nahin uss k jaldi aany ka…?
Bhavna, who was now sitting beside him, looked at him disappointedly with: Surprise naam ki bhi koe cheez hoti hai, ACP sahab…
Abhijeet placing the now empty glass on the side-table, asked another query as: Aur ussy sb btaya kss ny…?
Bhavna replied casually as: Mohina ny, kal jb…
Abhijeet cut her calmly as: Yeh nahin… (Bhavna looked at him in confusion who while looking in her eyes, asked in straight tone as…) Wapis aaty hi, hospital ly ja raha hai mujhy, MRI aur dosry tests k liye…
Bhavna had already hid her eyes and still looking away, replied as: Uncle ny kaha ho ga shaid…
Abhijeet asked her as: Tou phir aankhien tum kyun chura rahi ho…?
Bhavna taking deep breath looked back at him with: Kyun k main ny kaha ussy easa kerny k liye… (Grabbing his hand in hers', softly spread her fingers on his hand's upper side which was still having some faded scratches on it, she added in composed tone as…) Main ny sari zindagi bohut daikh lia aap ko hospital bed py bhi aur inn bandages mein bhi, ab aur nahin daikhna chahti… (Looked at him displeasingly with…) Aur mairi tou aap suunty nahin kabhi, iss liye mujhy Eshaan ko kehna prra…
Abhijeet, placing his free hand on her cheek, softly rubbed his thumb there in light smile with: Sari zindagi aik obedient pati bn'nny ki koshish mein guzar di aur aaj aap humien keh rahi hain k hum aap ki suunty nahin, yeh tou ghalat baat hai…
Bhavna, getting his intentions really well, looked at him disappointedly with: Yeh jo aap koshish ker rahy hain na baat ko kahin aur ghooma k mujhy convince kerny ki, iss sy ho ga kuchh bhi nahin kyun k baat ab Eshaan k hath mein hai aur woh aap hi ka baita hai, ager uss ny soch lia hai tou aaj aap hospital jaien gy hi, hmm…
And giving a teasing pat on his hand's upper side, she stood up when…
Abhijeet, who was really frustrated seeing his plan of being extra sweet towards her and then convince her to save him from his son, coming to a dead-end, registered his displeasure as: Yeh wasey tum patnion k sath na sach mein kuchh manufacturing fault hai… (Bhavna glared him in displeasure who added as…) Yun ghuro mtt, bs aik baat marzi k khilaf kya ho jaye tou baad mein pati bechara jitny bhi pyar sy baat ker ly, samny sy jawab koe aag lgany wala hi milta hai, hunh…
Bhavna replied in relax tone as: Yeh sath mein pani ka jug rakha hua tou hai… (And looking at her confused husband, told him in teasing smile with…) "AAG" bujhany k liye… (Abhijeet glared her in frustration who added in same teasing tone as…) Ghuriye mtt ACP sahab, aag bujhaiye, kahin kaano'n sy dhua'n na aany lggy…
Abhijeet in real frustration, pointed finger towards her wth: Bhavna, tum na…
Bhavna cut him in sweet tone as: Bohut samjhdar ho, ptta hai mujhy… (Signalled him towards his suit present on the bed with…) Aap k kapry set ker diye hain, change ker lien please… (Abhijeet just jerked his head, still grumbling where Bhavna stopping on the door step, turned towards him with…) Aur aap akely bahir nahin aaye ga, Eshaan ko aawaz dy dijiye ga…
Abhijeet replied burningly as: Jee bilkul, aur koe hukum…?
Bhavna while hiding her chuckle replied as: Pani pei lien, dhua'n hony lgga hai kamry mein…
Abhijeet in real frustration grabbing a nearby pillow threw that on her, who had just giggled softly, enjoying his frustration… When grabbing the pillow from the floor, which had obviously hit the door as was aimed for, she moved ahead and…
Bhavna placed the pillow on the bed with: Lagta hai aap sach mein borhy ho gaye hain ACP sahab… (Turning towards her grumbling husband, added in mischievous smile as…) Nishana chouk gaya hai aaj aap ka…
Abhijeet looked at her like "Is it so…?", who had just turned her face away in light smile when grabbing her hand…
Abhijeet pulled her beside himself and looked deep in her eyes with: Yeh tou aap bhi janti hain Mrs. Bhavna Abhijeet, k kitna nishana chouka hai maira…
She was just looking away in shy smile, seeing those intense expressions in his eyes and…
Bhavna tried to free her hand with: Hath chhoriye maira please, mujhy bahir kaam hai…
Abhijeet, making his voice heavy, replied in dramatic tone as: Yeh hath hum ny chhorny k liye nahin thama hai, kaniya…
Bhavna looked at him in real disappointment with: Mujhy lg raha hai k aap ko srr py na, kuchh zada hi gehri chot lg gae hai iss baar…
Abhijeet giving her a real burning glare, freed her hand the same moment with: Bahir jao aur kro ja k apna kaam, niklo…
And turning his face away, he pulled his suit towards himself, still grumbling when…
Bhavna, grabbing his face in one hand, turned him towards herself and pressed his face lovingly with: Bilkul bchchon k jaisy routh jaty hain aap bhi… (Abhijeet in frustration freed his face, glaring her displeasingly so she told him excitedly as…) Achha chalien, main bhi aaj aap ko gana gaa k mn'nati hoon…
And before she could start, Abhijeet, instantly taking the opportunity as a pay-back time, shook his head vigorously while joining hands in front of her with a loud clap with: Mujhy tou tum maaf hi rakho, pehly hi mairy srr mein dard hai, yeh torture nahin saha jaye ga mujh sy…
And the sharp shooter had really hit right on target, evident from the latter's face turning red and…
Bhavna instantly gave a punch on his upper-arm with: Kitny burey hain aap, khud bohut achha gaaty hain kya aap, aaye barey, hunh…
Abhijeet enjoying her anger, replied in proud tone as: Main kitna achha gaata hoon na, iss ka saboot main bhi dy chuka hoon aur maira baita…
Bhavna instantly cut him there with: Bohut achhy, ab mairy bchchy k talent ka credit bhi aap khud ko dy dien… (Told him while stressing as…) Bachpan sy riyaz ker k yahan tk pohancha hai aaj woh… (Concluded teasingly as…) Aap ki tarhan nahin, once in a blue moon gun'guna dia kabhi kuchh ulta seedha aur khud ko singer samjh baithy, hunh…
Abhijeet asked in fake shocked tone as: Ulta seedha…! Tumhien bhagwan sy zrra bhi drr nahin lagta kya jo itna jhoot bol rahi ho… (Lifting his both eye-brows, asked mischievously as…) Itna hi bura gaata hoon ager main, tou jb bhi naraz hoti ho, wapis man'nny k liye gaany ki farmaish kyun kerti ho…?
Bhavna cleared her throat with: Woh tou yunhi, aap ka dil rakhny k liye keh daiti hoon main…
Abhijeet nodded teasingly as: Achha jee, bari fiker hai aap ko tou mairy dil ki…
Bhavna, placing her hand on his chest, looked at him lovingly with: Bilkul, aakhir js jagah insan rehta ho, uss jagah ki fiker tou kerni hoti hai na jinab…
Abhijeet having a beautiful love-filled smile on his face, wrapped her in a side-hug and placing a soft kiss on her head, said as: I love you Mrs. Bhavna Abhijeet… (Bhavna contended smile deepened with that where he added in mischievous tone as…) But still, tum bohut kharab gaati ho…
Bhavna in love-filled-anger gave a light punch on his chest as her response, who laughed sweetly, tightening his grip around her and deepening the smile on her face, who knew it well that he was just teasing her, which had now become a kind of routine in their home… As the two could often be seen quarrelling over anything and just few minutes later, they were seen talking so casually, like they never fought… And that was the real beauty of their relation and the secret of their successful marriage, except love nothing was allowed to make its way to their hearts…
Where hearing some voices coming from the outside…
Bhavna moving back looked at the door with: Mairy khayal mein uncle aa gaye hain bahir… (While standing, she turned towards him with…) Main bhi bahir jati hoon, Mohina ny table set kerna shuru ker di ho gi… (Abhijeet nodded casually, when she asked him caringly as…) Aap change ker k, Eshaan ko bula lijiye ga please, akely nahin aaye ga…
Abhijeet nodded in assuring smile with: Tum panch, dus minute tk bhaij daina Eshaan ko…
Bhavna nodded in light smile and then left from there, closing the room door behind her…
Soon the family was present on the dining table, where Bhavna after serving to ACP sir, had just seated to serve herself, seeing Eshaan already busy in serving himself when…
Abhijeet's shocking voice rose as: Custard… (And disappointment came on all other faces where he instantly looked at Bhavna annoyingly with…) Yeh mujhy kb tk chhoty bchchon wala khana khana prry ga, haan…?
Instead of Bhavna…
Another firm voice replied as: Jb tk aap k srr ki bandage aur hath mein pakri yeh stick iss ghar mein nazar aa rahien hain, sirf tb tk Papa, promise…
Abhijeet, who had already turned towards his side to find his daughter standing there with a complete straight face, replied burningly as: Tou easa kerna k kal nashty mein Cerelac daina mujhy… (The other three had instantly pressed their palms against their mouths to somehow chock their laughter blasts, though ACP sir was now coughing, Bhavna somehow composing herself was now busy in serving water to ACP sir and Eshaan's face had turned red in the try to control his laugh… Where during whole that, Mohina's face hadn't got even a slightest smile, she was standing there with the same straight face looking like some strict principal and hence, Abhijeet tried to threaten her with…) Ager easa hi chalta raha na tou main ny hunger strike ker daini hai, achha…?
Mohina giving him a look like "Oh, like you don't know me, Papa", replied as: That's a really cute try, Papa… (Abhijeet glared her displeasingly where sitting near him on the other chair, she told him in straight tone as…) Aap ko ptta tou hai Papa, mujhy aap ki itni pyari pyari looks sy drr nahin lagta…
Others had just moved their heads a little more down, to hide their deepening smiles where…
Abhijeet feeling like frustratingly helpless, warned her as: Mohina…!
Mohina looked at him while forwarding a spoon half-filled with custard with: Aaa…
Abhijeet just turned his face away with: Bilkul nahin, main nahin khany wala aaj yeh, bohut ho gaya, bs…
Mohina, moving down her hand, sighed with: Theek hai Papa, ab jb aap pyar sy nahin maan rahy tou mujhy ongli tou teerhi kerni prry gi… (Abhijeet looked at her in real frustration where she had already turned her gaze towards her brother and called him as…) Bhaiya…!
Eshaan took a deep breath while trying to look serious, glanced over his father and then looked at her in question with: Jee…?
Mohina, completely ignoring her father's constant stare on herself, said in calm tone as: Bhaiya, aap aaj Papa ko tests k liye na ly k jaien please… (And if they didn't know her, then mistaking it as her complete sentence, Abhijeet would be happy and others would be shocked listening that BUT since they knew her pretty well, hence, Abhijeet was already able to listen some danger-bells ringing in his ears while others were curious, waiting her to complete the sentence, which she concluded with…) Bl k, doctors sy request ker k, Papa ko hospital mein re-admit kerwa dien…
Eshaan just pressed his hand against his mouth with full force to chock his' another laughter blast seeing his father's wide open mouth and eyes popping out from their orbits while…
Abhijeet had instantly exclaimed on the top of his voice as: KYA…!
And Mohina, who remained with complete straight face during whole that turned her gaze back towards her father and…
Forwarded the half-filled spoon of custard towards him with: Please…
And this time, her father, knowing well that she wasn't joking about the other option, opened his mouth, accepting the bite from his "Chirya", who was having a beautiful love-filled smile on her face and moving ahead…
Mohina placed a soft kiss on her father's temple with: You know nah Papa, I love you…
Abhijeet replied in displeased tone as: Well, I don't…
Mohina instantly protested with: Papa…!
Bringing a loving smile on her father's face who stretched her cheek softly with: Mujhy preshan kro gi tou bdla nahin ho ga kya…?
Mohina instantly replied as: Aur aap jo hr thory time baad, humien yun preshan kerty hain, woh…? (Added while stressing on every word as…) Thora dihan rakhien Papa, ab aap ki "Age" thori hai chotien lggany ki… (Completed naughtily as…) Suna hai, iss age mein zada toot-phot ho jaye tou brri mushkil ho jati hai…
Abhijeet, who was patiently listening to his naughty daughter, gave her a calm smile, which was alarming for her while…
Abhijeet suddenly turned his attention towards ACP sir while saying on a relatively loud pitch as: Sir yeh Mohina age k barey mein kuchh kehna chah rahi hai shaid…
Mohina looked at her father in real shock who just gave her a teasing smile while saying through his eyes as "Checkmate, baita", where Eshaan had really enjoyed his father's revenge while calmly busy with his breakfast, just like Bhavna, as they had already excelled that art till then, ignoring them and letting them fight like tom and jerry…
Where…
ACP sir had now turned his attention towards the little girl with: Haan Mohina, kya kehna chah rahi ho aap mairi age ko ly k…?
Mohina, who was greatly puzzled now, tried on a louder pitch as: Dadu aap ki nahin, main tou…
ACP sir cut her in annoying tone as: Arrey baita aaram sy, btaya bhi hai k itna bhi oncha nahin suunta main…
Abhijeet had already hid his face behind the water glass, to hide his chuckle seeing his daughter's condition while the other two had turned their faces away and Mohina was now busy in another round with a new opponent… The remaining three, were calmly busy with their breakfast, enjoying that new round which was really sounding like some morning music to them…
As listening that all on daily basis since Mohina had completed her bachelors degree in Journalism, because of wanting to eventually pursue her career as a crime journalist, and so now-a-days was mostly present on the breakfast table with her family, because of her master classes scheduled in the evening, they had become very habitual with all that and if someday, such arguments didn't rise on the table, they literally started missing it but thanks to Mohina, who never let them miss anything, being such a caring chirping girl she was… ;)
After their breakfast, the made their way in the lounge and after having their tea, soon Eshaan and Abhijeet left towards the hospital while the remaining remained busy in routine works…
During Journey…
Eshaan and Abhijeet were headed towards the CITY Hospital when…
Abhijeet asked in light tone as: Ab itny naraz ho kya k shikayet bhi nahin kro gy…?
Eshaan giving him a small smile, turned his gaze back towards the road in front with: Main naraz nahin hoon Papa, ghussa tha pehly aap sy lekin aap sy milny k baad woh bhi uttar gaya…
Abhijeet replied in soft tone as: Lekin iss samey, aap k ghussy sy zada, mujhy aap ka chehra uttra hua lg raha hai baita…
Eshaan taking few moments finally spoke up the real reason of his anger as: Aap py nahin Papa, mujhy khud py ghussa hai, bohut zada ghussa hai… Aap ka yahan accident ho gaya, hospital admit rahy aap aur main wahan gany gaa raha tha, fun ker raha tha, how can I be so irresponsible, I can't believe myself…
Abhijeet, who was calmly busy in observing that anger and rashness came not only on his face and tone but in his driving too, told him calmly as: Eshaan, baita aap ki driving rash ho rahi hai, slow down and calm down…
Eshaan, who had already slowed down the speed, gave him an apologetic glance with: Sorry, Papa…
Abhijeet understandingly patted his upper-arm with: It's fine baita, ho jata hai… (Added to cheer up his kid's mood as…) Aur phir yeh ghussa tou aap ko virrasat mein mila hai…
A small shy curve appeared on the kid's face with: Kya Papa aap bhi…
Abhijeet smiled lovingly with: Chalo, finally muskuraya tou sahi maira baita… (Eshaan's smile deepened where Abhijeet tried to make him understand softly as…) Baita ager koe brra masla hota tou zaror bttaty aap ko lekin aik hair line fracture k liye Eshaan Abhijeet apna contract toor k, wapis aa jaye, iss tarhan ka non-professional attitude main kabhi apny baity sy expect nahin kerta, aur phir yahan py baqi sb thy na maira khayal rakhny k liye… (Told him in sweet smile as…) Aur phir mairy baity na wahan Moscow sy woh kaam ker dia, jo yahan py reh k koe bhi na ker skka…
Eshaan, who was listening to his father quietly, gave him a confused glance with: Woh kya Papa…?
Abhijeet replied him lovingly as: Apny Papa ko utha k bitha dia aap ny… (Eshaan changing the gear gave him a blank-questioning glance so he sighed with…) Arrey yar, slip hony k karen back mein bhi thora pain tha but dosry din jb TV py apny bchchy ki performance daikhny k liye jo baitha, tou tb sy aaj tk kabhi dobara yaad hi nahin aaya k back mein kabhi kuchh tha bhi… (Concluded in proud tone as…) Js baat py aap ko ghussa hai na khud py, mujhy uss baat py proud hai mairy baity py, samjhy…?
Eshaan, who was now having a beautiful satisfied smile on his face, nodded with: Thank you Papa for always being there…
Abhijeet instantly complained annoyingly with: And still you are taking me to the hospital…
And that brought a disappointed chuckle from the latter's mouth, bringing a sweet smile on the father's face too…
Reaching in the hospital, they did the required tests of Abhijeet and then with doctor's permission, left for home in the noon…
On their way back to home…
Eshaan asked smilingly as: Papa, pizza khaien gy…?
Abhijeet looked at him in shock like he had miss-heard with: Kya…?
Eshaan, stopping the car on a signal, turned his gaze towards his father while repeating himself as: Pizza khaien gy…?
Abhijeet warned him with: Daikho baita, easa mazaq pasand nahin hai mujhy bilkul, this is savage…
Eshaan chuckled with: I am not joking Papa, promise…
Abhijeet instantly asked as: Achha aur woh jo lunch py wait kerty hoye, magar-machh aur uss ki olad baithien hain ghar py, woh…?
Eshaan looked at him disappointedly with: Papa…!
Abhijeet jerked his head annoyingly with: Don't do this "Papa" to me now, kitna preshan kia hua hai mujhy unn dono ny, danda ly k pichhy prry rehty hain mairy hr samey…
Eshaan while starting their journey again, replied calmly as: Unhien jb ptta hi nahin chaly ga tou kuchh kahien gi bhi nahin… Main keh dun ga k doctors ny tests k doran drip lggae thi aur dinner tk kuchh bhi khany sy mnna kia hai… (Glanced over his now satisfied father with…) Ab please jaldi sy btta dien Papa, kahan…
Abhijeet cut him in straight tone as: Mexican food khani hai main ny…
Eshaan nodded in sweet smile with: As you say, Papa…
And he turned the steering wheel towards his father's favourite Mexican restaurant still involved in casual talks with him… Reliving that beautiful past where his father had taken him countless times to his favourite eating places, obviously hiding all that from his mother and now he wanted to do all that for him because he always loved those moments with his father…
After having their lunch, they returned home in early evening, where the other three had already taken their lunch after receiving the call from Eshaan which he did from "The hospital" of course, telling them that they would be late… ;)
Abhijeet's Home…
Lounge…
Day was slowly moving ahead and night started spreading around when the door bell of the home rang, hence Eshaan left to answer it while the remaining remained busy in enjoying some music show running on the TV screen when soon heard…
Eshaan's loud happy exclaim as: Chachu…!
The people present in the lounge really shared confused questioning glances and Mohina had instantly left towards the main door when…
Mohina's excited exclaim of "Chachu" really made the elders to turn off the TV and before anyone of them could stand up to move behind the kids, Daya entered inside the lounge with the two and found really surprised faces in front of him where moving ahead, he met with ACP sir, who was already standing to welcome him, like other two and greeting "Namasty" to Bhavna…
Daya turning towards Abhijeet just hugged him with his full strength with: Dil ker raha hai tumhien yahin py shoot ker dun main…
Abhijeet chuckled while giving a pat on his back with: Tang py na maarien bs…
Daya moved back frustratingly with: Zada hasny ki zarort nahin hai tumhien, praya ker dia mujhy itny aaram sy…?
Abhijeet looked at him in disappointed anger as: Dimagh theek hai taira… (Grabbing Eshaan's arm, who was standing close to him, signalled the former towards him with…) Ly, mil ly aik aur praye sy, iss ko bhi nahin btaya tha kuchh… (Daya just jerked his head while grumbling, where Abhijeet got seated with…) Koe ja k guest hall set kro, praye logon ko bithana hai wahan…
Daya annoyingly while sitting beside him: Kabhi na, koe moqqa chhor bhi dia kro tum…
Abhijeet replied angrily as: Tou aaty sath hi easi fazool bkwas kerny ki kya zarort thi sahab ko…?
Daya complained with: Tou mujh sy chhupany ki kya zarort thi barey sahab ko…?
Abhijeet shook his head disappointedly with: Aby, kuchh serious tha hi nahin tou kya bttata tujhy… Janta tha na achhy sy k sahab ko jaisy hi ptta chaly ga, sb kuchh chhor chhar k, bhagy chalien aaien gy… (Completed teasingly as…) Yahan tk k apny baity ko bhi wahin chhor aaien gy, kahan hai Aryaan…?
Daya shrugged casually as: Doctor sahab ki appointment thi aaj regular check-up ki tou woh dono ghar hi hain…
Bhavna and Mohina, who had left the same minute he came, seeing him busy with Abhijeet, now returned and Bhavna serving him the juice glass, grabbed the seat on a near-by couch and Mohina, placing the snacks' tray on the table in front of him was about to turn when…
Daya instantly exclaimed as: Haye bhagwan Mohina, aap tou mairi party mein thi baita, yeh apny Papa ki party mein ho ker, mairy khilaf sazish kyun…?
Abhijeet was looking highly disappointed where…
Mohina asked in confusion as: Kya matlab Chachu, kya kia main ny…?
Daya replied naughtily as: Baita aap ny mujhy snacks serve ker diye, yeh kha liye tou mujh sy bhabhi k hathon ka bnaya hua dinner nahin ho ga… (Winked at her mischievously with…) Itni brri sazish mairy khilaf…
Mohina laughed sweetly with: Oh, sorry Chachu, my fault…
And grabbing the tray she left from there towards the kitchen, leaving smiling elders behind…
When ACP sir told him smilingly as: Kal baat hue thi mairi Salunkhy sy, main ny kaha milny aa ja tou saaf mnna ker dia uss ny, kehny lgga k tum ny milna hai tou khud aao, main tou yahin hoon…
Daya smiled lightly with: Jee sir, bhagwan ka shuker hai doctor sahab wahan itny achhy sy adjust ho gaye… Aryaan k sath rooz morning walk py bhi jaty hain sir ab tou…
Eshaan asked confusingly as: Lekin Chachu easa kabhi nahin hua kya k aap aur bhaiya, dono zada busy ho gaye hoon, tb kya kerty hain chhoty dadu…?
Daya replied him softly as: Baita, aap ko ptta hai na k sir wahan k aik hospital mein jaty hain, sir ko wahan time spend kerna achha lgta hai tou ager kabhi easa kuchh ho bhi jaye tou sir wahin busy rehty hain…
Eshaan nodded understandably as now he too knew about "Tarika Memorial hospital", as had heard it from Dr. Salunkhy who had told him about it in his excitement though soon covered it by saying that because the name was the same as of his daughter, hence he felt a strange kind of connection with that hospital… Though the three younger kids never visited the hospital and had not the slightest idea about who was running it and they were not interested in all those details as far as their dear Chhoty Dadu/Nanu was happy…
Though just like his father and other elders of the family, he too had started donating a fair share of his earnings to the donation-account given on the website, only because it was close to the heart of his Chhoty Dadu while oldie DUO's homes' rent directly went in the former mentioned account… Where DUO's home, which Sunil had kept with himself as their belonging and hence, never gave it to any tenant but kept it with himself in a hope that one day all would be fine… And when that day came, he returned the custody of their home to DUO, who took it back gratefully knowing well that their any hesitation would only hurt the latter… And now the rent of DUO's home and Daya's home in Mumbai, transferred directly in Mamta Foundation account where the rent of Mr. Kapoor's home, since the day he departed away, was directly transferred in that sanstha, he was affiliated with in his life…
When returning in the lounge seeing all present inside busy in casual talks…
Mohina asked confusingly as: Wasey Chachu aap itna chhota sa bag ly k kyun aaye hain…?
Daya, turning his attention towards her, replied as: Bchchy main bs, aik doo din k liye hi aaya hoon, Abhi k barey mein suun k wahan rukka nahin gaya tou issy daikhny chala aaya…
Abhijeet asked him as: Aur sahab ny mairy barey mein sunna ks sy…?
Daya looked at him with: Ks sy ugalwa sakta hoon main aasani sy…?
Abhijeet sighed with: Freddy…
Daya instantly told him as: Achha ab uss bechary ki class lgga k na baith jana tum…
Abhijeet looked at him in disappointed-anger with: Tairi tarhan dimagh kharab nahin hai maira, samjh aai…? (Daya just grumbled a "Hunh", where he asked him as…) Aur yeh btta k btaya kyun nahin aany ka…?
Daya shrugged casually with: Main naraz tha…
Disappointed smiles formed on the face of every person present there except…
Abhijeet, who gave a light slap on his head with: Taira kuchh nahin ho sakta Daya…
Daya giving him an angry look, replied as: Achha maira kuchh nahin ho sakta, aur bhai sahab ka tou bohut kuchh ho sakta hai na…? Hospital sy phir bhag aaye tum…?
Abhijeet instantly exclaimed as: Kya…! Yeh tujhy Freddy ny kaha kya…?
Daya gave him a teasing look as: Uss k kehny ki zarort hai kya…? Main khud nahin janta kya tumhien…? (Turned towards Mohina with…) Kyun Mohina, sahi keh raha hoon na main…?
Mohina nodded in approval with: Jee Chachu, jb sy Papa hosh mein aaye, aik hi baat pouchhy ja rahy thy doctor sy k mujhy ghar kb janey dien gy, finally unhon ny hi surrender kia… (Completed teasingly while glancing over her father…) Hamesha ki tarhan…
Abhijeet, who was getting shocked now, tried as: Arrey tou kya…
Daya cut him with: Abhi tum please thori daer k liye chup raho… (Abhijeet gave him a real frustrated glance, which obviously got completely ignored by the latter and turning his complete attention towards Eshaan, he asked him as…) Baita, aap aaj Boss ko hospital ly k gaye thy na, kya kaha hai doctor ny…?
Eshaan replied as: Chachu, doctors ny kaha hai k apparently tou sb theek lg raha hai but tests kiye hain unhon ny kuchh, doo, teen din mein reports aaien gi…
Daya nodded with: Mujhy bttana phir bchchy, jo bhi reports aaien…
Eshaan nodded in assurance with: Jee Chachu, promise… Wasey Chachu aap doo, teen din bhi nahin rukien gy kya…?
Daya slightly shook his head with: Sorry baita, actually teen din baad mairi wedding anniversary hai aur uss din maira Aryaan k sath hona zarori hota hai… (Eshaan nodded not knowing what to say where, not to give it any sad shade, he himself added in flow as…) Aur phir wahan, unn dono ko bhi aksar aik refree ki zarort perti rehti hai…
Eshaan chuckled where Bhavna and Mohina left to do preparations for the dinner when…
Abhijeet said as: Wasey main sach mein Aryaan ko kafi miss ker raha hoon, tumhien ussy lana chahiye tha sath…
ACP sir instantly asked with raised eye-brow as: Bs, Aryaan ko…?
Naughty smiles formed on the other two faces where…
Abhijeet cleared his throat while replying as: Matlab sir, Salunkhy sahab ko bhi…
ACP sir nodded stiffly with: Achha hai, main ny suna nahin na Salunkhy ka, tou pouchh lia…
Daya replied mischievously as: Woh sir, Abhi ny Salunkhy sahab ka dil mein kaha ho ga shaid…
ACP sir just shook his head in disappointment where…
Abhijeet said in low pitched burning tone as: Aik tou tujhy bhi na aag lgaye bina shanti nahin milti…
Daya gave him a teasingly-sweet smile with: Sach Boss, tum sy behter mujhy koe nahin janta…
Abhijeet gave him a fuming glare where…
Eshaan coming to the rescue of his father, said as: Wasey Chachu, bhaiya aur chhoty Dadu ko miss tou main bhi ker raha hoon…
Daya smiled lovingly with: Tou mairy sach-much k rockstar baity, apna next concert Nottingham mein rakh lo na aap, hum sb daikhny aaien gy…
Eshaan smiled cutely, having a boyish grin on his face with: Idea tou bohut achha hai Chachu, lekin ager concert na bhi hua tou yunhi milny aa jaien gy…
Daya smiled with: Yeh bhi bohut achha idea hai… (While giving an encouraging pat on Abhijeet's back, added as…) Lekin jb tk humara yeh zakhmi shaer inn bandages sy aazad nahin ho jata na tb tk issy uss pagal aakhrot sy dour hi rakhna, warna iss ko daikhty hi pehla kaam jo woh kry ga na, woh bhai sahab ko wapis hospitalized kerwana ho ga…
Eshaan asked in amazed tone as: Kya sach mein…?
Daya nodded with: Hmm aur ussy iss fracture ka tou bhooly sy bhi mtt btana warna aap ki bhi class lg jaye gi aur bhai sahab ki rakshah tou phir bhagwan hi kry ga…
Abhijeet asked displeasingly as: Tujhy sakoon nahin milta hai na Aryaan ko bdnaam kiye bina…?
Daya looked at him annoyingly with: Mujhy koe shoq nahin charha hai aap k ladly ko bdnaam kerny ka… (Added in straight tone as…) Vishvas nahin ho raha na tou call ker k daikh lo, aur tum bhi experience ker lo, hmm…
Abhijeet instantly asked as: Bhi…? (Asked worriedly as…) Taira bhi hua hai kya koe…
Daya cut him in disappointed tone as: Arrey Boss, maira nahin hua kabhi… Uss khargosh ka hua tha aik baar aur yun react ker raha tha jaisy bhagwan na kry, uss ka bazu hi ghayeb ho gaya ho…
Mohina, who had just entered there wheeling a food trolley as because of Abhijeet's health they had decided to take dinner in the lounge, feeling him a little exerted today, asked them in wonder as: Ks ka bazu ghayeb ho gaya…?
Eshaan instantly replied while grabbing the plates from her with: Bhaiya ka…
Mohina exclaimed in shock as: Kya…?!
Daya sighed helplessly as: Long story hai baita, dinner py bttata hoon…
Mohina nodded, still looking confused and left from there…
When the same time Daya's mobile rang and after glancing over the caller ID…
Daya showed the screen to Abhijeet in disappointed smile as: Think of the devil and… (And he couldn't complete because of the angry-warn glare from the latter, hence attending the call, he attenched the mobile with his ear with…) Jee baita, kya…
Aryaan cut him instantly while complaining as: Dad aap ny btaya bhi nahin wahan pohanch k, I was getting worried for you here…
Daya realizing his mistake replied as: Oh sorry guddy, mujhy bilkul dihan hi nahin raha…
Aryaan realizing his father's tension for his Ad'da, replied as: Its fine Dad, sorry, main bs preshan ho gaya tha tou… (Leaving the topic there, asked as…) Anyways, aap btain, aap pohanch gaye Ad'da k ghar, kaisy hain woh…?
Daya nodded in soft smile as: Jee baita, pohanch gaya tha main, thori daer hue aur ab ussi k sath baitha hua hoon… (Giving a mischievous glance to Abhijeet, added as…) Yeh lo, aap khud hi pouchh lo k kaisa hai ab woh…
And he forwarded the mobile to Abhijeet, who giving a disappointed glance to Daya, grabbed the mobile from him and before Aryaan could utter anything…
Abhijeet himself said as: Baita yeh aap ka Dad faltu mein aap ko preshan ker raha hai, I am completely fine…
Aryaan complained with: Ad'da ager aap completely fine hain tou btaya kyun nahin humien kuchh…? Aap ko ptta hai, aap k chakkr mein, mujhy dant per gae…
Abhijeet chuckled with: Kyun bhae, mairy chakkr mein kyun…?
Aryaan replied him as: Dad ko jb ptta chala na tou Dad bohut ghussa thy aap py aur main ny jb mairy Ad'da ki side lainy ki koshish ki tou mujhy bhi dant dia…
Abhijeet smiled sweetly as: Tabhi tou kehta hoon main aap ko k aap ka Dad thora crack hai…
Daya, who was busy with ACP sir now, gave him a displeased glance where…
Aryaan chuckled with: Aap k sath hi baithy hoye hain woh Ad'da, aap ko dobara dant per jaye gi…
Abhijeet asked with raised eye-brow as: Dobara…? Matlab aap ko pura yaqeen hai k mujhy pehly dant per chuki hai…?
Aryaan nodded firmly with: Jitny ghussy mein Dad thy na, thori bohut dant tou aap ko zaror prri ho gi… (Completed cutely as…) Aur zada sari Dad ko…
Abhijeet laughed sweetly with: Well, you really know your father, son…
Aryaan smiled sweetly and then turning serious asked caringly as: Ad'da mujhy Eshaan ny btaya tha k aap ko aaj hospital ly k jaye ga woh, gaye phir aap dono, kya kaha doctors ny…?
Abhijeet replied in soft smile as: Jee baita, gaye hum aaj hospital aur doctor bilkul satisfied thy, tabhi tou ghar bhi aany dia na…
Aryaan replied in flow as: Woh tou aap phir sy bhag aaye hoon gy Ad'da…
Abhijeet exclaimed in shock as: Kya…?!
Aryaan, realizing what he had said, smiled sheepishly as: Dad kehty hain easa Ad'da, k aap hamesha hospital sy bhag aaty hain…
Abhijeet throwing a burning glance over the younger one, replied his nephew as: Apny Dad ki hr baat py yaqeen na kia kro, btaya na, Dad pagal hai aap ka… (Aryaan just placed his palm on his mouth to hide his sweet laugh where Abhijeet completely ignoring the latter's piercing glare overself, complained his nephew as…) Wahan maira image bigarta rehta hai aur yahan, aap ka image bigarny ki koshish ker raha hai, jb sy aaya hai…
Aryaan's ears instantly stood up with that revealation and hurriedly asked him as: Kya matlab Ad'da, kya keh rahy hain Dad mujhy ly k…?
Abhijeet shrugged casually as: Ptta nahin koe, fracture wali sto…
And before he could complete…
Aryaan instantly cut him in great tension with: Kya…! Ad'da, Dad ko phone dien please jaldi…
Abhijeet clearly sensing the tension in his voice, smiled mischievously and hitting his elbow to Daya to get his attention, turned on the speaker with: Okay baita, daita hoon ussy phone…
And he signalled Daya who giving him a disappointed glance, said as: Kya…
And got cut right there by his perplexed kid as: Dad main btta raha hoon ager aap ny mairy fracture wali story sunae na wahan tou, tou main… (Not getting any valid threat, concluded as…) Oho, Dad aap bs nahin sunaien gy kisi ko bhi woh sb… (Tried to defend himself with…) Wasey bhi main tb kitna chhota tha…
All present there, as ladies too had returned till then, were having disappointed smiles on their faces when…
ACP sir asked in mischievous smile as: Kitny chhoty thy tb aap…?
Aryaan replied in flow as: 14 years… (And then realizing from whom the query was made, instantly exclaimed on high pitch as…) Dadu…! (And then listening to the light laughs got well the mobile must be on speaker, asked complainingly as…) Ad'da aap bhi Dad ki team mein ho gaye na, mil k preshan ker rahy hain sb mujhy…
Abhijeet replied sweetly as: Yar team mein tou main aap k hi hoon lekin ab tou yeh story mujhy sun'nni hai… Start aap ny ker di, complete Daya ker dy ga, tata…
And he cut the line, still giggling sweetly imaging his nephew's frowning face as knowing well that it was noon in Nottingham and he must be calling from his cabin while Dr. Salunkhy was present in that hospital, no one asked to talk to him…
Where the dinner was already served there and the family, still smiling, was now busy in taking dinner when…
Mohina asked curiously as: Jee Chachu, ab btain kya hua tha bhaiya k bazu ko…?
Daya shook his head with: Kuchh nahin hua tha baita, dramybaz hai woh bachpan sy hi…
Abhijeet warned him with: Daya…!
Daya sighed with: Sorry… (Abhijeet just shook his head disappointedly where he added as…) Puneet ko chhutian thien tou Sunil aur Puneet aaye hoye thy unn dino wahan aur mujhy achanak Alaska jana prra, aik project k silsily mein aur…
Nottingham…
A playground…
It was evening and around 14 years old younger DUO could be seen playing football in a ground with their other friends when suddenly during play, Aryaan stumbled over a little uneven area in the ground, resulting him falling down and his right arm came under his own body weight, bringing a loud cry from his mouth, panicking the other kids around…
The kids tried to help him first but seeing his condition, Puneet stopped them while getting stopped too, sensing something was wrong with his brother, who was not allowing anyone to touch him, because of the pain… Hence taking out his mobile, Puneet instantly dialled to 999 emergency helpline and requested for an ambulance, telling their location while sidewise consoling his brother, who was looking in real pain, crying constantly… Ambulance came there in minutes and took them to the hospital where on their way Puneet had told all that to Sunil too while telling the name of the hospital as well… Sunil consoled him while advising to remain composed and strong…
QMC Hospital…
