THE PERSISTING COLDNESS

Memories could be beautiful or dreadful...but beyond every memory there is a soulful life...

CHAPTER 3 : THE PERSISTING COLDNESS

ACP (in hurt): sab ko mai hi galat lag tha hu na….that's fine….sahi hai…mai hi galat hu…..

ACP cleared his eyes and went off from the place in anger….

Salunke tried to stop him but he didn't pay any heed….

Salunke (in low tone): yeh agar aise hi sochega tho problem badh jaayega….lekin mai isse kaise samjao…..I hope ki yeh khud samjh jaye…..warna bahot der hojayega…..

He sighed and prayed the god to clear the misunderstanding between ACP and abhijeet…and went inside the bureau to continue his work…

Two years later....

Head quarters...

ACP, Abhijeet, Daya were sitting in the chairs provided...

Daya was sitting with a gloomy face...while Abhijeet was constantly assuring him....

ACP heave a sigh looking at his officers....

Soon higher officials along with some other officers came inside the conference hall...

The trio stood up and wished DGP....

DGP asked them to take their seats...and he himself sat in front of them...

DGP (in a professional tone): Ashok.....aap shurur kar sakthe hai...

Ashok (in a firm tone): sir.....baad bahot seedha hai.....CID Mumbai ne protocol todha hai.....S.I Daya ke jaan baccha ne ke liye in logo ne ek khatarnak mujrim ke phasi rokha hai.....wo bhi bina permission ki.....halaki ab usske phasi ho chuka hai.....lekin inn logo ne apne personal issues ke liye aise protocol thoda hai.....jo ek punishable offense hai...issliye they deserve the punishment...that's all.....sir.....

Saying this sat back while looking at Abhijeet with a smirk.....

DGP (in polite tone): ACP Pradyuman aap ko kuch keha na hai.....

ACP (in firm tone): sir...hume nahi lag tha hai ki hum ne kuch galat kiya hai...hum ne sirf kuch der ke liye uss terrorist ke phasi rokha hai...aur hum ne sirf S.I daya ko baccha ne ke liye hi nahi balki 30 baccho ko bhi baccha ne ke liye hi yeh sab kiya hai...phir bhi aap log saza de na chathe hai tho I won't object it.....

Ashok (in tease): aap tho aise bol rehe hai jaise hum galat hai.....unn baccho ke jaan bhi S.I Daya ke waja se hi khatre hai padh gaya tha...Daya ke saath hi unnke dushmani tha.....issliye hi tho unnlogo ne unn baccho ho pehale kidnap kiya aur unnko mohara bana ke Daya ko...aaplog apne personal issues ke...

Abhijeet was already at the verge of the outburst...

Ashok's words act like the ghee to the fire.....so he cut Ashok with.....

Abhijeet (in anger): what you mean by personal issue?...wo terrorist kya Daya ke chichora bhai tho land ya property ke liye yeh sab kiya....he was a criminal.....and Daya only arrested him for his crime.....wo koi personal revenge nahi le raha tha.....so mind your language...

DGP (in firm tone): Abhijeet is right...Ashok you can't term this as a personal issue...ask them sorry.....

Ashok (tried as): sir...par.....

DGP (in a firm tone): I said ask them sorry.....

Ashok (in an annoyed tone): sorry......(then again started in firm tone as)...sir.....phir bhi innlogo ko protocol thodh na nahi chahiye tha...permission mil ne tak wait nahi kar sakthe the kya? Innke team ko dekh ke kal koi aur yehi repeat karege.....then what is the purpose of the protocol? Ek officer ke liye pura protocol ke matlab hi badal diya...
