Part-8
Sakshi was sitting beside Arjun in the ETF SUV ,she was stealing glances at him....
Arjun- kuch kehna chahati ho,bol do nhi kahogi toh pet m dard hoga tumhare
Sakshi- nhi pr tum mujhe sunna chahte ho kya.....
Arjun- mene aisa kb kha Sakshi
Sakshi-Hm nhi kha.....(or shayad kbhi kahoge bhi nhi- in mind)
Arjun- tum thik ho naa baatein tum phle bhi ajeeb hi krti ho pr yh zyada weird tha....
Sakshi- Tumhari company m rhna h toh bas practice kr rhi thi.
Arjun ignores her - Sakshi
Sakshi pats on his shoulder to calm him down.....
Arjun glares at her
She starts rubbing his shirt- mitti lgi hai arjun bahut gndi lg rhi hai.....
Arjun glares at her and she pulls her hands back towards her.....
Sakshi- Please car roko naa mujhe ice-cream khaani hai....
Arjun was glaring at her but this time in shock and surprise.....
Arjun- Do you realize thodi der phle tumpr aatack hua tha remember.....
Sakshi- chott lgi h mujhe yaad hai, pr icecream khaane se meri chott thik ho jaati hai,
Arjun was staring at her
Sakshi- looking at him sachi, jhooth nhi bol rhi hu m.....
Arjun- thik hai m lekr aata hu don't you come out....
konsi icecream laani hai
Sakshi um.... (thinking)
Arjun- poora din nhi h hmaare pass make it fast jldi batao
Sakshi- han chocochip......
Arjun went outside saw a couple having the icecream on the roadside stall.....The first thought that comes to his mind is of Roshni, no matter how many times he say to himself he doesn't need anyone,but he knows man being a social animal can't live his life alone,there was a time he had no one with him,but now weather he agree to it or not he has people with him who care for him, and for whom he cares..... and that too a lot......
Arjun- suniye 1 chocochip dijiyega... ek kaam kro 2 de dena....
kitna hua
Stallkeeper- sahab 50 rupees
Arjun- lo.....
Stallkeeper-Shukriya sahab..
Arjun smiles at him faintly
Sameer calls Arjun-
Sameer- Kese hai
Arjun-Thik tum btao
Sameer-Thik hu,tum us ghar m jaoge rawte 2 saal baad...... Thik rahoge naa......
Arjun- Han Sam thik rahunga,tum tension mat lo
Sameer- Agr baat krni ho toh m hu rawte just a call away......
Formality nhi hai pr socha teri aawaaz bhi sun lunga or tujhe himmat bhi milegi......
Arjun- I know sam tum mere saath ho...... and thank you mujhe mera dost wapas dene ke liye.....
Sameer- Bas kr itni baat mat kr tujhpr toh abhi se Sakshi ka asar dikh rha hai itna bol rha hai.....
Arjun- Sam yh ldki yh mujhe pagal zaroor kr degi inagine m abhi kya kr rha hu Miss Sakshi Anand ke liye icecream lene aaya hu.... seriously 😒
Sameer starts laughing
seedha kregi tumhe vo insaan bnayegi vo bhi normal wala.....
Arjun- Chlo rakhta hu uske baare m nhi mere baare m socho.....
Bye take care...... kuch hua toh call karunga
Sameer- ok bye.........
Sab rangat duniya ki bin yaar ke fikki hai....
Dosti ki takraar bhi chashni se meethi hai....
Life has it's own ways, how much he might make ETF team to have his fear the more close he is being drawn to them day by day, and being drawn even more closer to Sam......
Whatever Arjun may say he realized this somewhere he was happy having Sakshi at this moment by his side to share this icecream with.......
But in his mind- Arjun ETF is important,so is sakshi that's all.....
Arjun came back to the car and sakshi took both icecreams from him......
Arjun- Excuse me....
Sakshi- Baad ne Arjun let me have my ice-creams first...
Arjun- I have not bought ice- creams for you.....
Give me one back it's mine....
Sakshi- m itne yh kha rhi hu tum or le aao
Arjun- Sakshi give it back....
Sakshi not listening to him
Arjun- Suna nhi yaa ignore kr rhi ho.....
Arjun's just one glare
Sakshi- lo lelo
Arjun took ice cream and start having it.....
Sakshi was just lovingly watching Arjun have that ice-cream....... She was on cloud nine with mere having icecream with him it's was not she expected something from him,but she was just happy weather he says it or not he has started enjoying Sakshi's company........
And this was enogh for her,and it always was.......
Sakshi- Arjun ice-cream won't mind it agr tum isey smile krke khao toh infact mujhe toh lgta hai she will feel lucky to have made ACP Arjun Rawte smile
Arjun- Sakshi jo kr rhi ho uspe dhyan do
Sakshi- vhi toh kr rhi hu m baat kr rhi hu or baat pr hi dhyan bhi h mera......
Arjun- Don't act smart with me.... yh tum samjhi yaa samjhaun....
Sakshi- (Making face) Samajh gyi.......
Arjun-Better for you.....
After eating icecream
Arjun-Sab ho gya ho toh chle ab tumhare ghar.....
Sakshi-Hm.... pr for a change mujhse pucha tumne .... kyunki taunt maarna tha.....
Arjun- Smart ho gyi ho tum samajhne lgi ho cheezon ko.....
Sakshi- Han sangat ka asar hai..... (in her mind)
Rest of the journey was peaceful,neither of them spoke after this
Sakshi Arjun reached Sakshi's home.
Sakshi - Arjun yelo paani

Arjun- nhi m thik hu jldi kro tum...
Sakshi-hm kr rhi hu Arjun
Arjun- acha Sakshi washroom kha h
Sakshi- This side nhi ruko iska knock khrab h mere room wala use krlo
Arjun- chlo after you.....
Arjun and Sakshi were shocked to see the room it was all devasted all almirahs open bedsheet scrolled up and down
Arjun- whosoever has been here has turned the room upside down
Sakshi-pr room hi kyun why not entire house
arjun maybe because yh tumhara room h Sakshi, they must have started from here but shayad they came to know koi ghar me aa gya hai and they dissappeared Abhi zyaada door nhi gye honge backdoor ki koi entrance hai Sakshi
Sakshi- nhi Arjun bas ek khidki hai iss room m or room 2nd floor pr h toh aisa aana thoda mushkil hai....
Arjun- mushqil hai Sakshi impossible nhi hai,m yha dekhta hu tum neighbours se puch kr aao...
Sakshi-Hm ok....
Sakshi goes to her neighbour's house-
Sakshi- Hlo aunty
Neighbour-Hi sakshi kesi ho
Sakshi- Thik hu aunty aapne kisi ko ghar m aate jaate dekha aunty abhi kuch der phle...
Neighbour-Nhi bache m yhi thi mene toh kisi ko nhi dekha,han aisha aayi thi saamaan lene tb kuch log khde the corridor me,naye se lg rhe the pr tumhare ghar ki taraf jaate nhi dekha.
Sakshi-Jaanti ho aunty aap kon the.....vo log
Neighbour-Nhi bache mujhe nhi pta...
Sakshi- Thank you aunty....
Neighbour- Bye.....
Sakshi returns back to Arjun,meanwhile Arjun had check the ceiling and the windows but he found nothing.....
He saw photo on Sakshi's wall inked and crossed a picture of 2 girls out on the wall but due to ink it was not at all clear.
On the doors was a broken windchime and above the bed was a half suspended dreamcatcher, Sakshi indeed was a full dreamer.
Arjun- Sakshi don't touch anything and call Liza to come here collect finger prints if any
Sakshi- Ok
Liza came
Liza- Sir no fingerprint found infact sir aisa lgta h ki the person knew exactly where everything is kept..
Sakshi- Liza m please abhi vo photoframe utaar loon she had tears in her eyes....
Liza- han Sakshi phle have some water,and chup ho jao sab thik hai....
Sakshi- Hm
Arjun- Liza seal the place vese bhi Sakshi mere saath hogi or Aisha yha nhi h toh koi yha nhi aayega but it's better to seal it.
Liza- right away sir.
Sakshi just stepped up on the ladder to remove that photoframe and was about to fall down with the frame that Arjun held her in his arms and Arjun was amazed to see the way she was holding she didn't let it down even when she herself was about to fall
his one hand on her waist though she was so disturbed looking at the condition of the photo that she didn't even noticed Arjun's gaze on her.
Arjun is realising the change in himself,but the case in hand was his foremost priority at that time so he let Sakshi down made her sit and asked her to relax.
Arjun-Sakshi calm down it's ok yh frame doosra bnwa lenge koi baat nhi....
Sakshi-nhi bnwa skti Arjun..... I really don't have that Liberty, chahat ho tb bhi nhi....
Arjun gave her a glass of water to calm her down.....
Sakshi-M kuch kpde le leti hu then we will leave....
Arjun-khrab ho gye hai yh naye le lenge hum....
Sakshi- nhi Arjun manage ho jaayega....
Arjun just nods to her and sirs on the sofa outside with the photoframe lying peacefully on the other sofa......
And sakshi packing her essentials so that they can leave from there......
