[b][blue]
he was standing at a reasonable distance
& didn't dare go forward....
he certainly couldn't hear dem but
wat he saw made him flinch...
navin picked her up in his arms..
holding her by the waist..
& they whirled in a circle....
putting her down he kissed her on her forehead....
as d girl ....blushed!!
my God!!
dat wretch has d guts to double-cross my friend!!
at d bar she's tossing around in other's arms & here...!!
navin!!...tujhe bhi yahi mili thi kya dost...????
he wondered...
sick to his stomach...he turned about & left for d mess...
an hour or so passed...
raj was still sittin in a corner in d mess...
having his tea...
wondering how he'd change navin's mind
when he saw her walking in alone...
aalekh had been there too...
laughing around wid d cadets....
she saw him & called out...
"hi rockstar!!"
aalekh whirled around..surprised to be called
by dat name...
a name dat had made him famous in his cambridge days..
"you....here!!"
he stood stunned...his face expressionless...
den suddenly his mouth broke into one of d widest grins
dat raj had ever seen...!
"excuse-me cadets!"
he rushed forward & took her into his arms....
& kissed her hard on her cheek...
"my God babes!!
wat a fantastic surprise...!!...
wat d hell r u doin here??...wen did u reach?"
"aalekh...leave...me..yaar..
you're ...hugging me...bahut...zor ...se"
he laughed his head -off & released her...
"oh lord!...i could barely breathe..!!
& as to wat i'm doin here...
well...don't u think its better if we go talk in private...
i mean ...
i can see those girl cadets r hating to see me
so close to u..." she smiled...
it made his heart lurch...
he smiled & escorted her outside holding her tightly by her waist...
wat she didn't know was d fact dat d moment
she'd stepped in d academy..
not a single cadet...& for dat matter d faculty had been
able to take their eyes-off her..
for she looked amazingly elegant & feminish...
raj saw d scene with complete hatred in his eyes...
wat kind of a woman was she??
aalekh ko bhi nahi choda!!
disgusting!!...
he called her a few names in his mind...
dat left him a bit peaceful....& now...
i've got to talk to nanoo before its too late...!
...........................
"nanoo..i need to talk to you dis instant!"
"guess wat raj??!!
she's here!!"
"i know!...i saw her too...
ab tujhe jo bolna hai baad mein boliyo...
but first listen to me very carefully....
yaar...i know it's goin to hurt you...
but ...woh tujhe....dhoka de rahi hai.."
"dhoka??!!...kya matlab...?"
he wondered wat raj meant...
at dat time aalekh too walked in...
really happy...
"hey navin...."
"accha hai aalekh tu bhi aa gaya...
u both need to get dis right through your head...
she's ditching u both...
navin...yeh wahi ladki hai jisse maine bar par drugs lete hue
dekha tha...
aur abhi tum dono ke saath...
she's d one who lodged dat FIR against me...!"
he told aalekh d entire story...
"i don't believe you raj..i'm sorry!"
aalekh just didn't accept his story..
"look raj..."navin took a deep breath..
"tujhe zaroor koi galat-fehmi hui hai..
it can't be her!"
he felt irritated...
dat his friends believed her more dan dey believed in him..
as he asked dese questions , his volume went on increasing..
& by d end of it...he'd nearly shouted at dem.....
"oh come-on guys!!
tum dono mujhe kitne time se jaante ho...?
why would i lie??
why is it so difficult to accept the truth?"
"FOR THE VERY SIMPLE REASON...
DAT I KNOW MY SISTER..
ISN'T CAPABLE OF SOMETHING SO FOOLISH!!"
he shouted back...
"SISTER!!??" he was lost for a second
before reality hit him hard..
"...u mean...u mean dat was NIA!!"
he felt as if his body was whipped of all d stength..
"naina's on drugs!!"
"oh shut-up raj!..
paagal ho gaya hai kya?
it must have been someone else..."
aalekh tried to explain...
"NO!..it was her...i'm sure!
& she..she lied to me even yesterday..."
"yesterday??" navin stood confused...
he told him about her call...
"don't u see..dat was d truth !
koi resemblance hogi raj...
u know naina more dan dat!!"
navin answered...
a little scared by the unshakeable confidence in raj..
wat if??...no way!
"dat's d problem navin!
its been 11 years since i last met her...
i couldn't even recognize her...
stop her guys!!...i think she's in trouble.."
his face was masked by horror...
navin saw an ordery passing by..
"orderly!!..captain sharma ke room mein ek lady baithi hai...
get her here...."
all of dem waited in complete silence...
not understanding d situation they were in...
there had to be a mis-understanding!
naina walked in wid a smile...
a smile dat was instantly replaced by hatred..
& partly horror..when she saw raj here...
"tum!!...wat d hell r u doin here??!!
u'r a captain at dis academy!...shit!!"
navin's heart sank...so naina did know him...
maybe-maybe she'd recognized him!
"tum isse jaanti ho nia?"
"jaanti ho??!!...
he's d most arrogant, stubborn, rude, overbearing
,narrow-minded,wrong-headed,wretched person i've ever met
in my life!!"
...she took out all d frustration
dat had been boiling in her heart d
moment she'd set her eyes on him...
his nightmare was turning true...
raj was indeed telling the truth...
"who d hell is he anyway??!!"
"tum india kab aayi naina...??"
"w....woh...aaj bhaai...!"
"really!!..& u've already met dis arrogant man...
itna strict opinion form karne
ke liye it takes time sis!"
he answered sarcastically...
naina knew she'd fallen into a trap...
"r...u...on drugs??"
"aaah!!..so dat's it!
u didn't waste much time did u mister..
oh sorry captain!!
now i know why bhaai's talking like dis...
u've poisoned his mind haven't u??"
she added dryly..
her voice accusing raj...contempting him...
it had been wid great difficulty dat night
dat naina had admitted to herself dat
she'd fallen for dis handsome man...
it had taken just dat one moment..
wen their eyes had caressed each other
dat she'd felt a spark rush through her..
but now standing here...
being questioned like a convict...
she thought she was a fool...
she found herself detesting him...
he didn't know a thing!!....
i wish raj was here!
he would've understood!
"naina!!...answer d damn question??
r u taking drugs??"
he shouted...
"look bhaai..."
"yes...or..no!" he threatened...
"i can explain...."
"YES OR NO!!"
"yes but...."
SLAP!
he slapped her hard on her face...
so hard dat she winced back in pain...
stepping back ...stumbling into raj's arms...
"navin!!..u didn't have to..."
raj tred to control d situation
releasing herself from his arms...
"u'r responsible for dis..."
she looked him in d eye...&
felt d hatred coming out from dem...
he was uncomfortable...
"naina!!..tum itni batameez ho sakti ho...
shit!..i'm ashamed to cal u my sister!
i'm glad raj came & told me everything..."
she was stunned...
"R...RAJ!!.."
she stared at him again..dis time questioning...
d hatred gone...
before she could react...
her cell rang..
she took a deep breath...
"hi rohan..."
"drugs?..right!..."
"i'll buy ecstacy,heroin,oxytocin,exubera..."
she kept on naming a few...
while d others stared hard at her...
not believing their own ears...
"0.5 mg of each..."
"50000!!...but dat's a lot!"
"theek hai...i'll arrange it!.."
"luv u too...bye!"
she stood uncaring as to wat d others thought
& dialled a number...
"rocky..i need another 50000!"
"jaanti hoon 2 lakhs pehle hi ...please..i'm desperate!"
"thanx...haan main abhi aa rahi hoon..."
she looked at each of dem...
seeing nothing but horror...&
walked off...leaving dem shivering...
just how easily she'd indulged in it all!
oh god...help her!
a week had passed by....
something like a cold-war was
goin on between naina & d others...
navin & raj had already had loads
of discussion regarding her behavior...
but dey couldn't reach a conclusion....
dey found virtually no solution to their problem...!
"have you tried calling her??"
"a million times atleast raj...she's just not interested!!
phone nahi uthati!"
"den go talk to her!...meet her...usse samjha yaar..
she's in dangerous territory...uski saari life...her career...
everything's at stake!"
"i know...par...man i feel so frustrated wen i see her...
i just can't control myself...mann karta hai 2 laga doon..
soch yaar...mom-dad ko pata chala to....dey'll be shocked!!!!"
he added frustrated....dissapointed
"look navin...only you can talk sense into her..."
"akele gaya toh i'll never reach d stage
where we can sit down calmly &....talk!
tu chalega saath??"
...he was almost pleading
"main!!...no way !...
she holds me responsible for everything navin.
main gaya toh baat aur bigad sakti hai...!!"
"hi guys..." aalekh walked in...
"hey aalekh...navin!!..why don't u take him along?"
dey explained him everything...
"ek kaam karte hai...lets all of us go together...
par kal...abhi ..lets go out for a drink..."
aalekh suggested
at dat instant an orderly informed raj dat brigadier had
summoned him...
"u guys wait...main aata hoon.."
he picked up a file & walked away..
"report's ready i hope?"
"yes sir...here it is...but i have a question sir?"
"yahin na ki yeh research maine tumse kyon karaai?"
he nodded...
"u'll come to know very soon...
just tell me ki conclusion kya nikla.."
"i'm afraid its not good sir....
to be honest..its horrifying!
they're much more dan a bunch of mobsters sir...
that's just a part of d picture...
they're cold-blooded businessmen
operating on a staggering scale...& yes...
they're yearly income is in billions...!"
"billions!!..
inspite of d fact dat they're always in trouble wid d law..."
"exactly sir...
the source is the unlimited hotels, banks,restaurants,casinos,
insurance,shipping,construction companies dat dey own...
they're controlling unions all over d world.."
"& their base??"
"primarily dubai ...
par mafia ke operations ko to aap jaante hi hai...
dey're all over ...
& since india mein itna solid economic boom chal raha hai...
dey've made it its next money minting machine!..."
"wat kind of operations are we talkin about?"
"all kinds...conspiracies, murders,kidnappings,extortion,
income-tax evasion frauds, upheavels in d unions &
destabalising d political machinery...but presently...
the 2 problems dat need immediate attention are terrorism...&
drug trafficking..."
"wat bout d law enforcement agencies..?
i heard quite a lot of dem are involved..."
"half a dozen sir...
india mein..except d CBI, & DEPARTMENT AGAINST ORGANIZED CRIME
we've got the postal & custom services,internal revenue service,
and very soon i believe even our indian army will stand involved..."
"absolutely!!.....u give me dis report..
dat was a very good job captain...
& now on an informal note....
i hope all your problems with my niece have sorted out...
its surprising dat wen i contacted d commissioner
to take back d FIR she lodged against u..
i had no idea it was naina ...anyway..
...i believe u were neighbours once?"
he gave a strained smile...
"yes sir...& d problems...
dey'll sort out pretty soon.."
"good...u can leave..."
..........................
they had driven up till Connaught Place...
an excellent hangout zone at
night in d chilly delhi weather...
they decided to take d subway for crossing a street...
chatting bout work...the three descended...
it was den dat raj saw a group
of youngsters being led away by d police...
aalekh & navin took no notice..
but raj stopped dead in his tracks...
"shit!!...i'll be back.."
& he rushed behind d group dat had already reached d opening....
"inspector!!" he called out...
"wat's dis commotion about?"
"aap kaun?"
"captain rajveer singh shekhawat...indian army"
hearing dat name...naina whirled around in shock &
despair....oh no!!
he studied her for a second...
it was obvious dat she wasn't angry at him anymore...
just frustrated at having been found out...
"these guys are being carried away to d police station sir"
"under what charges?"
"drug smuggling & trafficking.."
"wat??!!"
as raj talked to d inspector he saw from d corner of his eye..
naina was scribbling something on a piece of paper...
she came forward quietly...& brushed against him...
to others it seemed an accidental collision...
very smartly..she'd slipped dat chit in his fist...
"excuse-me for a second"he turned around & glanced at d chit...
GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!...NOW...!
initially he thought she was furious...
but wen he looked in her beautiful eyes..
he realised dat she was pleading...
he gave a quick nod...
koi to khichdi pak rahi hai...par kya??
yeh sab ho kya raha hai?
it was den dat he saw navin & aalekh approaching...
navin had a murderous look on his face...
as if he'd kill her...
while naina stood scared...horrified ...
understanding d sitaution...
raj stomped on navin's foot before he could utter a single word..
"take dem away inspector..."
they saw her being pushed into a police van
...a little brutally...
& they winced...
"why d hell did u stop me?"
"shut-up!..."
he handed d note to him...
& began dialling a number..
"DeSilva ...raj here...bail ke papers ready karo...
nahi mere nahi!!....
a friend....naina sigh ahluwalia...
drug trafficking...
no!!...i want her out today...
par-war nahi lawyer saahab...
she won't spend a night behind bars as long as i'm here!...
good...main aapko jail mein milta hoon...bye"
"ek din rehne deta usse wahi!!...
subaah tak akal thikaane aa jaati...
drugs again!!
kya karoon is ladki ka...?wat should i do??!"
"go sleep....aalekh tum dono jaao...
i'll go get her..."
"main bhi..."
"nanoo!...mere signature required hain...
u don't have to bother...
i'll get her ..."
after having persuaded him..raj went to d prison...
................................
shaking his head in despair
...he bailed her out...
as she approached him...
her head hanging down...
raj took her by her arm...
she looked up &
saw herself staring into concerned eyes...
[red]rooth na jaana,tumse kahoon to,
main in aankhon mein jo rahoon to,
tum ye jaano yaan na jaano,
tum ye maano yaan na maano,
mere jaisa deewaana tum paaoge nahin!![/red]
she blushed....
aisi situation main bhi mujhe.....
"i'm sorry for d trouble....
u didn't have to bother...
main koi intezaam kar leti..."
she said softly....
but when he continued staring at her...
looking exceedingly handsome in his grey suit...
she was embarassed...
"i'll...i'll explain..."
"i'm sure you will!!...
we really do need to talk...& fast!"
holding her by d waist ,thanking d officer..
he marched her out to his jeep...
she was about to sit inside..when he stopped her...
holding her by the shoulder,he turned her to face him..
"wat d hell is goin on nia??
tum drugs kab se le rahi ho...
& for god sake ....why??"
he sounded alarmed now...
"well...i..."
she was a bit confused...,a little shaky....
& overly conscious of how close they were...
how tightly he held her ...
& how his strong hands felt against her..
"i...i'm ...addicted to dem..."
he raised an eyebrow...& den smiled....
alright guys...dat's it for d day....
why he's smiling??
