SS-1.4 : Armaan ~ Abheera

Start from the beginning
                                        

"Isliye tujhe zinda dekh ke bhi hairan nahi hoon mai. Ab bolo kis khoj me aaye ho," she added. (That's why I'm not surprised to see you alive. Now, tell me, what brings you here?)

Armaan asked, "Ma'am kya Akshara ma'am ne kabhi apse unki behen ki maut ke raaz ka jikr kiya tha? I mean kya sachme unhone Aarohi ji ko mara tha" (Ma'am, did Akshara ma'am ever mention the truth about her sister's death to you? Did she really kill Aarohi ji?)

Shreya replied, "Nahi! Kabhi nahi. Haan puri duniya ko yahi lagta hai ki aisha Akshara ne hi kiya tha. Lekin sach mai janti hoon" (No, never. Although the world thinks Akshara was responsible, I know the truth.)

Abhir requested, "Toh please hume bataiye. Ye bohot zaruri hai" (Please, tell us. This is very important.)

"Aao mere sath!" (Follow me!) she said walking out of the room.

Shreya led them to her cabin, opened her safe, and carefully retrieved a pouch.
She handed them the pouch, saying, "Isme Aarohi ki maut ka sach aur Akshara ki begunahi ka saboot dono hai. Usne ye mujhe aishe hi kisi din ke sambhal ke rakhne ko kaha tha. Mai Abheera ko ye pehle hi dena chahti thi, lekin usse pehle ki tum usse lekar chale gaye the." (This contains the truth about Aarohi's death and proof of Akshara's innocence. Akshara had given it to me for safekeeping, instructing me to keep it secure until the right moment. I wanted to give this to Abheera earlier, but by then you two were gone.)

Flashback ends

"Yeh letter bhi mujhe uss pouch mila tha," (This letter was also in that pouch) Armaan said and handed over the letter to Abheera. Abheera started reading the letter aloud.

"Agar ye chitthi koi padh raha hai iska matlab wo wakt agaya jab sach sabke samne aaye. Mai nahi janti jab ye sach bahar ayega tabh mai rahungi ya nahi. Lekin jaate jaate apni begunahi ka saboot aur sachai ka aina sambhal ke rakh rahi hoon." (If someone is reading this letter, it means the time has come when the truth will be revealed to everyone. I don't know if I'll be alive when this truth comes out. But before I go, I'm leaving behind proof of my innocence and a reflection of the truth.)

Abheera continued reading, "Saalo pehle mai ek high profile case pe kaam kar rahi thi jisme kuch political workers accused the. Uss case ka verdict victim ke favour me aya tha aur gunhegaro ko saza bhi huyi thi." (Years ago, I was working on a high-profile case where some political workers were accused. The verdict came in favor of the victim, and the culprits were punished.)

Abheera's voice trembled as she read on, "Lekin nyay ki ladai me maine apne kuch dushman bana liye the, jinmese ek tha Jagraj Chowdhury. Ye wahi Jagraj hai jisse aaj pura Mussoorie janta hai." (But in the battle for justice, I made some enemies, one of whom was Jagraj Chowdhury. He's the same Jagraj that everyone in Mussoorie knows today.)

Abheera's anger rose as she read the next part, "Saalo pehle jab Aaru ka accident hua tha tabh mujhe bhi yahi laga tha ki ye ek hadsa hai. Lekin aaj mujhe pata chala ki wo ek plan tha. Par sikhar Aaru nahi thi, mai thi! Sunke hairan huye na?" (Years ago, when Aaru's accident happened, I also thought it was just an accident. But today, I found out that it was a plan. And the target wasn't Aaru, it was me! Are you surprised to hear this?)

Abheera looked up, her eyes filled with tears, "Mai bhi huyi thi jab ye dusra pehlu mujhe pata chala tha. Ussdin jab mai car rokne ki kosis kar rahi thi, toh break kam hi nahi kar raha tha, wo isliye kyuki kisine jaan bujke unn breaks ko fail kiya tha. Aur wo koi aur nahi Jagraj tha." (I was also surprised when I discovered this other aspect. On that day, when I was trying to stop the car, the brakes weren't working, and that's because someone had intentionally tampered with them. And that someone was none other than Jagraj.)
