Shagun took the bus filled with children far away from the city towards a barren park where noone comes. He stopped the bus after checking that noone is there. He stood up and turned behind to see the children.
Shagun : To bacchon....are you all ready for doing lots and lots of masti?
Students : YESSS BHAIYAA
Shagun : So make a line and come behind me.
Children immediately stood up forming a line without showing any tantrums as the knew that bhaiya is not a strict bhaiya. They formed a line and went to the park
Shagun : To Bacchon....hamari gang ka name rakhein?
Students : YAYYYY
Shagun : Suggest kro fast fast..good good names.
Girl : Umm...Masti gang?
Shagun pinched her nose playfully
Shagun : Nice one...but old one too.
Boy : Masti ki pathshala
Shagun : Naaaa this is not a pathshala na
Girl : Then what about Popat gang?
Shagun : PERFECT my cutie
He said pinching her nose.
Shagun : Toh meri popat gang...let's discuss our rules. Say behind me
Rule no. 1 : Say no to Tutions
Students repeated behind him
Rule no. 2 : We will play whole day after schools
Students repeated again with excitement
Rule no. 3 : Popat gang is foreverrr
Students repeated with more power.
After that they started playing hide and seek, catch me if you can, ring a ring a roses. Children were so happy playing with him. After sun set Shagun dropped the bus full of children in front of the school and fled from there promising the children to come again next day.
SCENE CHANGES

Abhi smacked his forehead and looked towards vaishu
Abhi : Tumhe bhi kuch kehna h?
Vaishu : Yes...i guess tumhara or aarth ka name hona chahiye because agar tum dono ka name hoga to I guess yahan kisi ko koi problem nhi hogi right?
She said eyeing towards Jamal and Bantu
Amal : Oh hello Ms. Lack of evidence.. Mujhe aise kyun dekh rhi ho
Vaishu : Because I was asking from you...kuch galat kiya kya?
She asked innocently making Amal irritate
Amal : Sidd or abhi ke name se mujhe koi dikkat nhi...thank god tumhare andar itni akal hai ki apna naam nhj lia
Vaishu : Abh toh me apna hi name rakhungi..kya karenge aap?
Abhi : Bass kijiyee aap log
Bantu : Exactly..name decide Karna hai or aap dono bacchon ki tarah lad rahe hain.
Vaishu : Oh haan...What about Sidshek Associates? Now don't tell me you guys didn't understood the name
Abhi looked towards Sidd...sidd towards Bantu...bantu towards Amal.
Amal towards Abhi..everyone gave confused looks to each other And then looked at vaishu with an innocent face.
Sidd : Actuallyyyy....yepp...We didn't understood.
He said with a toothy smile which everyone reciprocated. Vaishu smacked her head mentally
Vaishu : Oh god...kaise sambhalungi me inn 4 bacchon ko...kuch nhi samajhte.
The four spoke together : BACCHA KISE KAHA
Vaishu : Aap charon ko...for you kind information....sidshek is ...you both... (She pointed towards sidshek) your combined names. Sid + Shek...Samjhee?
Abhi : Acchaaaaa....ab samjhe. To pehle batana tha na vaishu dhang se.. Kya nautanki kar rhi thi tabse.
Vaishu : Huhhh? Mein or nautanki?
Sidd : Hanjii....nautanki kr rhi thi tabse. Seedha seedha batane me kya jaa rha tha tumhe
Amal : Vahi toh..pata Hai mere jamane mein...
Everyone smacked their forehead knowing now The Amal's bakwaas stories are going to start. Ignoring everyone amal continued
Amal : Hamare jamane mein log seedhi seedhi baat kia krte the...no ulti bakwas. Parr aajkal ke logon ko to dekho...jab dekho ulta bolna hota hai
He said eyeing towards vaishu
Vaishu : Hawww..hello uncle ji...mujhe kyun dekh rhe ho
Amal : Kyuki tumhe bol rha hoon
Vaishu : But sirf meine hi nhi....
Abhi smashed his hands on the table in irritation
Abhi : Guys meeting chl rhi hai...koi kabbadi ka stage nhi h jo lag rhe ho bacchon ki tarah
Sidd : Shaant Abhi shaant...itna gussa nhi...breathe in breath out
Abhi : Tu chupp karke beth ja
Sidd huffed and sat down pouting
Abhi : Hmm...so sidshek Associates it is. Now no more discussion on this topic.
Amal : Oye bada mein hoon...mujhe kyu daant rha hai
Abhi : Because I'm the head here...or aap badon wale kaam kar nhi rahe hain.
Suddenly they got a call. Abhi received it and talked for sometime. After putting the call...he looked at everyone
Abhi : We got a case.
Vaishu : Itni jaldi?
Abhi : Yeah....better for us...let's see what the case is. File Bheja hai head ne.
He started reading the document.
Abhi : Hmm...so the case is about a person who kidnapped children from their schools but also dropped them outside their school after sunset. But the problem is...children are refusing to go to tuition after that and from one week they are always missing after the school hours. The police catched the culprit today itself and the parents are asking for serious punishments for the accused.
Vaishu : What is the name of the culprit?
Abhi : Shagun Pandey.
Sidd : File dikha
He took the file and saw his picture
Sidd : Shakal se to maasum lag rha hai...why would he do something like this?
Bantu : Exactly...i think he is innocent
Amal : But we can't come to the conclusions straight away. First let's talk to the accused.
Abhi : Yeah...me or vaishu jaate hain... Ap log baaki formalities complete kr lijiye head office jaa kar.
Sidd : Ok done.
They left for their works.
Abhinavi left for the police station... and took shagun in interrogation room.
Abhi : So Mr. Shagun...we will be your attorney for this case.
Shagun : I didn't did anything wrong... Why are you guys taking me in the custody
He said in a cold tone.
Vaishu : you want to say...you didn't kidnapped the children?
Shagun : Yes...i didn't...I took them with their consent
Abhi : But Mr. Shagun...children don't have that mindset to understand anything. You diverted their mind and took them away from the city.
Shagun : But I dropped them back too.
Vaishu : Vhi to hume samajh nhi aa raha Mr. shagun...aapka motive kya hai?
Shagun : Bacchon ki khushi
Abhi : Can you please elaborate.
Shagun : I use to love children a lot...play with them...be their bhaiya with whom they can forget everything happening with them and just play and play and play.
Abhi : But studies are equally important for them.
Shagun : When did I stopped them from attending their school? I was observing from few days...the children are taken to the tuition academy direct after their school hours that too on the name of picnic. Just because they can't understand they are being taken to academy just after school. Isn't this a too much pressure for the small kids? and now the parents are blaming it on me. I was just trying to make them feel light after the tiring day at school.
Abhinavi were too shocked to say anything. The fact behind his doings was totally justified. He was just trying to help the kids. But the society's thinking is...a child should just focus on studies. They don't understand that a child's mental well being is also important.
Abhinavi left the police station after talking to him. Now they are walking on the road together.
Vaishu : Abhi you heard him? He was not at all guilty for his doings...at some point he is right too. He was just trying to make them happy
Abhi : Yeah...but parents are too much adamant to punish him. Whatever his reasons were...but according to the laws if we will see...parents are the supreme decision maker when it comes to their child. It will be difficult to prove his doings correct.
Vaishu : That's the main problem Abhi
Abhi : That's why I don't like lawyer's job.
He said annoyed like hell
Vaishu : Han han I know..ab kab tak same line bologe mere samne
Abhi : Jab tak mera mann kare..koi dikkat?
Vaishu : Tumhe to...abhi ruko tum
Abhi : Catch me if you can
He poked his tongue and started running. Vaishu too ran behind him.
But suddenly she tripped and fall on the road. Abhi turned and saw her holding her leg in pain
Abhi : Vaishu..
He ran towards her
Vaishu : Ouch...Abhi its paining
Abhi : Kisne kaha tha itna bhagne ko. Chlo tumhari sawari ready hai.
Vaishu : Are u saying u are giving me piggyback ride?
She said squeaking in happiness
Abhi : Haanjii ...ab chalo banda haazir hai...ghar chal kr haldi ka lep laga dunga.
Vaishu hopped on his back happily. Abhi carefully held his leg and took her to the car and drove back home.
They reached the home. Sandhya opened the door and saw vaishu on Abhi's back
Sandhya : Sidd ne dekh lia na..toh tu gya kaam se
She said mocking
Abhi : Mammi vaishu ke per me sprain aa gya hai.
Sandhya : Ohh...kaise..kya hua. Vaishu thik ho na beta?
Vaishu : Ji aunty bilkul thik hoon me..tension mat lijiye
Abhi made her sit on the sofa.
Abhi : Mein haldi ka lep le kr aaya.
He went in the kitchen. After a moment amal, bantu and sidd came home. Sidd is between amal and bantu taking their support. His left leg is fractured and head is injured too. Vaishu and sandhya saw him and got a shock. Vaishu tried to stand up but couldn't because of the sprain. Amal and Bantu took her to the sofa.
Just then Abhi came from the kitchen. He saw Sidd in that condition and the bowl of medicine slipped from his hands.
Abhi : ASHUU
TO BE CONTINUED

And he heard a voice.
