COME, BURN WITH ME!

7. TILL THE DUSK~

And saying this ks left from there leaving pj confused.

Pj(in mind)- ab ye dono ek surag ke liye bhi ladengi kya, hey shiv ji aap hi kuch kijiye in dono ka, kaun kahega ki ye dono itni badi afsar h, aise bacho ki tarah ladti h.

In HM's cabin:
Everyone was present there along with the couple.

Hm- Mr and Mrs Chopra ham h SHO haseena malik aur aapka case hamare hi under h, to aap hame jara batayenge ki exactly kya hua tha us din aur kya dekha aap dono ne?

Mr. Chopra- maddam ham ek business man h aur acha khasa karobar h hamara, zahir si baat h dushman bhi bahut h, par maddam us locker ke baare mein sirf mujhe aur meri patni ko hi pata tha. Us din subha subha ham dono ki neend hamari naukrani ke cheekhne se khuli, ham jaldi jaldi room mein pahuche to waha se wo locker hi gayab tha aur saman bikhra hua. Uske baad thane aake complaint file ki hamne.

While santu was recording all these.

Mrs. Chopra- maddam wo paise hamne bank se nikale the, inko apne business deal ke liye kisi ko dene the, parso deal h inki, pls maddam wo chorr ko pakar lijiye.

Hm(assuring them)- aap fikar mat kijiye ham jaroor pakar lenge us chorr ko aur aapke paise bhi mil jayenge. Aap ye bataiye ki aapke ghar mein kaun kaun h?

Mrs Chopra- ham, hamare pati, hamari naukrani aur bas driver aata jaata h.

Hm(whose attention was stuck on Mr chopra's finger)- Mr Chopra wo aapke ungli mein wo nishan kaisa h?

Mr Chopra(said hesitantly)- maddam wo meri ek anguthi thi jo maine apne driver ko de diya tha, uski khuddari ke liye, wo bahut saalo se hamare liye kaam krta h.

Hm turned and looked to ks who was already looking back at her and them both of them nodded as if were talking through minds. After that hm turned back and said...

Hm(to the couple )- theek h aap dono jaa skte h, ham bahut jald aapko thane bulayenge, chorr se milwane ke liye.

The couple thanked and then left.

Hm(stood from her chair and said)- Driver ko thane bulaiye kal ks.

Ks- ji Ms. Jai hind.
(After that everyone left the cabin)

____________________________

Nearly an hour later, hm called cheeta in the cabin and asked him...

Hm(asked)- cheeta hamari gaadi theek hogai kya?

Cheeta(replied)- ji Ms, wo to dopeher ko hi aagayi garage se.

Hm(said)- thank you so much... acha ek aur kaam tha, wo hamara saaman hotel se pick krke, is address pe rakh dena, hame flat mil gaya h yaha to ham aaj hi shift hona chahte h waha.

Cheeta(took the piece of paper with address scribbled on it and said)- ji ms ham abhi aapka saaman pahucha kr aate h waha. Jai hind!

Hm(smiled and nodded)-Jai hind!

Cheeta came to pj's desk where pushtosh were chit chatting randomly. He read out the address and was left awestruck noticing which both pushtosh took the paper and read it.

Santu( normally)- cheete tu ye km ka address leke kyu ghum rha h??

Pj(keenly observed cheeta's expressionless face and said)- nhi nhi santu, cheeta ye pata leke nhi ghum rha h, balki ms ne ise ye pata diya h! Hai na cheete ??

Cheeta(gulped down and then said)- ha pj, sahi keh rhi h aap, ms ne bola hamko abhi ki hotel se unka samaan is address pe shift krna h, yahi unka flat h, par ee to km ka ghar h.🙂

Pj( confusingly)- km ko pata h ye baat?? Par km to ka to apna khud ka ghar h na to ms waha kaise? Ye dono jis tarah jhagadte h ek dusre se usse hame to nhi lagta ki km maani hongi ms ko apne saath rehne dene ke liye....phir ms ne unka address kyu diya?

Santu(added with full masumiyat)- pj, kahi ms aur km ek dusre ko pahle se jante to nhi h?

Cheeta(said )- dekha dekha, hamne kaha tha na santu ji ki aap singhade khane ke baad kuch aur hi ho jaati h, aap na daily singhade khaya kijiye!! 🤣🤣🤣

Pj(said)- ye bakaiti baad mein kr lena tum dono, par filhal hame santu ki baat mein wajan lagta h, ab hame ms aur km dono pe nazar rkhni hogi ache se, taaki pata chale ki sach kya h!

(Me- itihas gawah h ki jab jab pj ki mandali kareEna ke peeche padi h tab tab kya hua h🌚😂)

Cheeta did as per instruction of hm, he collected HM's stuff from the hotel and dropped it at the door of KS's house.

____________________________

Later that night, ks reached her house, she was quite tired again because of the case and then scheduled arguments with hm. She inserted the key in the keyhole to unlock the door, when her gaze fell on the luggage kept beside.

Ks closed her eyes in helplessness, she doesn't want it that be truth what she was thinking.

Ks(in mind)- nhi bholenaath nhi, yaha pr bhi haseena nhi, aapko achanak se hamari shanti se kya pareshani hogai h, pls haseena nhi.

Voice( from KS's back)- jaldi kholiye karishma hame change krke settle bhi krna h apna samaan.

Ks was startled because of HM's sudden appearance.

Ks(asked)- aap kab aai?

Hm(mockingly said)- jab SI KS apne darwaze ko aankh band krke order de rhi thi sayad khud khulne ka tab aaye the ham.

Ks while shooting daggers at hm  twisted the key and unlocked the door and pushed it to open.

Hm (stepped in ordered to ks )- saaman lete aaiye karishma.

When ks( held her wrist and stopped her and replied)- hamare duty hours khtm ho chuke h haseena aur ye ghar hamara h agar aapko yaha rehna h to hamare niyam anusaar rahiye warna darwaza hamesha khula h aap kabhi bhi jaa skti h.

Hm (jerked her hand from KS's hold and said pointing finger at her and looking into her eyes)- ainda hamari permission ke bagair hame choone ki koshish bhi mt krna karishma.

After that hm took her luggage and straight away went inside while ks just sighed standing at the door. She could feel the hate in HM's eyes for her, eyes that were reflecting the hate stored in her heart for her!!

Ks(to bholenath)- hey prabhu aap hi jaaniye ki kya hone wala h hamdono ke saath rehne se!!

(Meanwhile bholenath- tathastu!😎)

Ks quietly went into her room and closed it from inside, while hm chose one of the two rooms available which was on the 1st floor.

Ks changed and lied down thinking about hm, abid and her, while hm settled herself properly and then she was also tired so she too lied down and while thinking about her life and wet eyes both ks and hm dozed off in their respective places.
