Tapur throat is dried up completely as she saw her sister who is looking like lioness and she quickly closed her eyes and thought now what to do, how to escape from Bondita didi .
She immediately recalled her guru in mischiefs - her Bhatuk babu and thought what will Bhatuk babu do in my place if he get exposed ?
She recalled one of his mischeivous act in school in the days when her didi is resting in home and preparing for final board exams but Bhatuk babu used to come for her .
One day she and Bhatuk babu are coming out of school in Evening.
She has seen a raw mango outside school campus and tried to throw a pebble to make it fall but it didn't hit the mango and missed the target. She kept disappointed face and sighed
He smiled and took the pebble and kept it in her hand and held her hand and taught her how to hit the target with full Focus. He taught her that her focus should be on the raw mango only and not on any other thing . She nodded and he made her hit the raw mango with full focus and it was fallen on ground
She was extremely happy and clapped her hands but at the same time they heard someone screamed out of pain and yelled that who is that fellow thrown pebble on me ?
They both are shocked to see that their master ji had got hit with pebble and it made his glasses break.
Tapur started crying loudly and he ahot her mouth and said shhh . Dont shout.
She started crying: I had thrown pebble on master ..I did wrong towards my guru . I will get sin and started increasing her tone.
He said shhh calm down but she is not lowering her tone
At the same time master is coming down the tree to see who is that who did it. As it's a huge tree and they both are on other side master couldn't see who it is .
She again started crying and he asked her to hide behind the tree don't come out and walked towards master by turning backwards his back facing master and (pretended) yelling on some (non existing) person that are your eyes not working. How can you hit our master like that ? And asked are you fine sir
Who did it !- master asked trying to keep broken glasses and see who is there
Arey some vagrant boys are daily coming here for raw mangoes masterji , oh no blood is coming from your forehead and he took out his kerchief and tied it around master ji head and made him drink water from his bottle and then asked are you fine master ji.
Master told I am fine thankyou beta and Bhatuk HIMSELF called one rickshaw which is passing by and made him sit and commanded rickshaw wala to take him to his house and despite of how much master tried to stop Bhatuk gave money to rickshaw wala and asked him to take his masterji safely .
He took masterji glasses and told that he will get repaired and bring tomorrow despite of how much master tried to resist . Bhatuk firmly told that let me do it sir . Master carressed Bhatuk head and left from there thanking Bhatuk once again in rickshaw
Tapur is totally amazed to see his cunning shade, spontaneous clever as well as his soft caring nature all at a time. She was totally confused with his behaviour . Is he mischievous ? Is he cunning? Or is he good caring boy ? What is he exactly?
Bhatuk came to her and winked to her with a cunning smile and started opening his school bag to keep masterji glasses safely
She asked is it not wrong to hide the truth bhatuk babu? Rather than this why don't you admit your mistake and ask apology?
He replied: I agree Gudiya but I intentionally didn't hurt him na. It just happened accidentally. What can I do ? .
I am apologetic to him in mind but if I go and accept my mistake sincerely and apologize him wholeheartedly will he accept my apology? No na .. definitely he will think that this mischeivous Bhatuk did it intentionally to show his Zamindari attitude and pride .
Despite of how much I fall on his feet and ask apology he won't forgive me and in reverse he will go and complain to Anirudh dada who will easily believe masterji words and come to conclusion that I did it intentionally a
YOU also know what my angry dada will do and how will he punish me. I am not scared of punishment but I don't want to see the disappointed expression on his face for me . That's why I always go in tangled routes ..
Right now I was left with no choice than to trick him and save myself and you but at the same time also doing repair for the damage happened.
He told showing masterji glasses and kept it in his school bag by wrapping it carefully
Tapur : no Bhatuk babu . This is not right ..you have to be guilty for lying and is it not wrong to project ourselves as mahan when we are the one who are real culprits
Bhatuk : Gudiya ! This bhatuk intentionally won't hurt others but if they are hurt I also know how to take responsibility for the damage happened . Problem is no one believes me and understand my heart. Everyone only looks at my mischiefs and naughtiness but besides that I also have a heart and this heart wants his people welfare and happiness
Somewhere his words touched Little Tapur heart deeply and implanted in her heart .
Bhatuk : Believe me !I am not that bad as all think of me
Today I will get these glasses repaired and within few hours only I will go and give it to master . So problem solved .
All the times by simply telling sorry everything can't be sorted out. mors than telling in words one can also tell sorry by their actions right ?
She nodded with smile
Whenever Tapur recall Bhatuk her heart gain courage and fear will go away. He became the reason for her strength
Now also She got a cunning idea to get rid of this problem and started dreaming by closing eyes that : didi ... Bondita didi..aap bahut achi didi hai ... Meri pyari Bondita didi ....
Bondita raised her eyebrows shooked her head and thought: Is this my sister only. ..? Or is she having Bhatuk soul inside her ? From this evening onwards she is behaving like Bhatuk
And started shooking her sister calling: Tapur... tapur get up once I wanted to talk to you , but latter didn't open her eyes and doing drama that she is in heavy sleep
Bondita thought: Acha ! Will I leave you if you are asleep.
Bondita again shooked her and told dramatically: Tapur ! If you want to continue to sleep then fine no problem. Have a great sleep .But let me tell you one thing.
(Tapur became nervous inside)
Bondita carressing her sister's hair told softly that : I have got to know where you are throughout the day .
Patibabu had given police complaint today morning na and they have already arrested that person who had taken away you .
Because that fool had left clues in our garden and by that we understood everything.
The one who abducted you had given anaesthesia to you and that bottle is found in our das haveli garden along with your broken bangle.
Police officer had sent that bottle to hospital to find about it and they have tested and confirmed that this bottle has anaesthesia and English doctors are only supposed to use it.
Other side my another devar Bhatuk is not attending business training in Italy from the day he landed there and today he had given sleeping pills to Italy manager and made him sleep complete day and kept on calling to Bharat Desh throughout the day..so Patibabu and me connected all the dots and got to know what had happened at our back . We got clear picture of everything that happened today
Her words made Tapur shiver to the core. She opened her eyes and saw that Bondita sat on edge of the bed holding her hands across her chest with a reckless expression on her face as if she is not bothered of anything and showing attitude and this made Tapur scare more.
Tapur raised from bed and yelled painfully coming to her sister : kya ...nahi nahi..Aisa nahi hona chahiye didi.. (what ..no... no...it should not happen like that )
Looking sternly at her sister she nodded her head as agreeing and told : what do you think Tapur, if you keep quiet and slip silently won't truth come out ?. Won't we find out who had abducted you ? . Won't we inform to police department?
They have arrested the one who kidnapped you and the one who is master mind behind this abduction. Definitely they will get punished for longer years .. police will beat them black and blue
Tapur : No didi. No ..it should not happen like that.
Bondita: why it should not happen? It already happened.
You have secretly slipped to sleep here na by putting me in fix near Thakuma and Patibabu Telling that I have gotten fever.. meanwhile I and Patibabu have done our work. Those two boys .. how can they do this. Not even thought of family prestige for once .
Patibabu and ksj are highly disappointed on them . Even sasurji is also very much angry on them ..
Tapur : you are lying na didi. You are not like this . You always care about everyone. This is not your behaviour
Bondita countered: even this is not your behaviour too Tapur . But still you are behaving like some one . When you can do this why can't I do
How can you and jamayibabu know about this without me telling?
(With pretending calm tone and hardly controlling her tremble she told ) I know...I very well know ..
You are lying
Bondita : If you find comfort in believing false then you can believe it. I don't have any problems. Anyways after they got arrested Patibabu went to look after them I came to sleep with my lovely sister and laid on bed folding her hands and giving side glance to her sister's reaction
Tapur is more frightened and she shooked her didi not to do that SOMNATH jamayibabu had not kidnapped me and Bhatuk babu is not the one who gave this idea. I only tricked you to find out Tupur didi Whereabouts. I only tricked you ..it's all my fault. Please punish me didi ..not them .. please punish me only
Bondita: so ...it's SOMNATH dada and that monkey Bhatuk behind this right ?
Tapur looked more scared and something striked her mind. She asked nervously: You tricked me now am I right didi ?
Bondita nodded and admitted that yes Tapur I intentionally tricked you to make you admit the truth
Tapur gulped nervously and stood silent thinking: Bhatuk babu ! I am in fix. What should I do ? Show me some way . Help me ...
Bondita: so...my guess Is right . How can they both do this and you And most important thing that is bothering me is you are behaving very wierd like that Bhatuk. What's wrong with you ?
You are imitating him same to same in this drama and as well as his spontaneous wicked acts . What's going on tapur ?
Tapur looked nervously. Now her brain stopped working and think anymore like herself or like Bhatuk
Bondita: Wait .. I guess Somnath dada might have blackmailed you right ?
Tapur looked shockingly. What is her didi thinking?
Bondita: yes that might be the reason. That he forced you to help him else he might have threatened you in anyway. And that Bhatuk might have given these kind of ideas to him .
Else you are not like this na tapur . You are so innocent. Definitely their emotional blackmail is there . You stopping me and Patibabu intentionally all this is their both plan to know Tupur details . I am sure
Hey Durga maa ! How can Somnath dada do this ? Don't know where is Somnath dada as of now .
I will call to hospital and inform him right now. He will inform police and find where Somnath dada is there and bring him back and about to go
Tapur couldn't take anymore and yelled painfully : DIDI.. STOP IT DIDI. And held Bondita's hand
Bondita stopped in her tracks and asked : what happened Tapur ? Why are you crying like that ?
Tapur opened up now : didi! Now whatever I am telling is true and I swear on Durga maa and on my parents
Bondita is looking at her Sternly.
Tapur gathered courage and told : didi! Its true that Somnath jamayibabu only abducted me by giving angrezi nasha but he didn't Trouble me in anyway.. Durga maa ki Kasam didi ...tumhari Kasam (and kept hand on Bondita's head )
He didn't hit me, blamed me or in anyway he didn't scare me .
Bondita: Then ? That means ..
Tapur closed her eyes and admitted that: yes didi ..I only wanted to help him and unite him with Tupur didi
Bondita: oh ! So he might have cried infront of you told some fake stories and you have melted to his words and joined in his team. . And shooked her head as displeased
She told : This Is not the way you should behave tapur. For the first time Tupur took her decision for herself to do something in life . She went there to start new life and come out of all kind of inhibitions and insecurities. So that she understand where Is her welfare she can analyse what mistakes she did in life and can decide if she want to continue this relationship with her husband or not .
Without achieving all this only now if Somnath dada goes there and get into tiff with Tupur then situations will go out of control. They will be completely separated. Why don't you understand that ? Didn't I tell you all this in earlier Tapur ?
Tapur : Didi ! Somnath jamayibabu intentionally didn't hurt Tupur didi na. Whatever had happened it's all because of the medicines that his friends gave to him which increases his blood pressure and make him angry and when he was fed that medicine his friend spoken unfavorable words against Tupur didi . In that condition due to medicines Influence only somnath jamayibabu reacted in that way. Else we also know na he wasn't of that kind . Why you and Anirudh jamayibabu are making it as an issue
Bondita: don't we know this Tapur ? Dont throw the entire blame on medicines .. they only increase the person's angry levels and may irritate them but wont sow the seed of hatred in mind .. Somnath dada should have clarity about baby's death and who is responsible. He should think from heart and understand our Tupur. For that some time is needed. Even Tupur also needed this time and she herself asked us to help her and we are doing as per her wish ..I insist...only as per her wish . Not as what we are thinking.
We didn't even give this solution to her . Do you know that ?
What do you think of me and Patibabu Tapur ? Like our elders do you also have opinion that me and Patibabu are displaying our barristry skills in separating husband and wife . Do you also carry this in your mind ?
Tapur fely offended and yelled painfully: didi ! No...I don't mean it .
Bondita: but your actions are telling that only na . When own people only play tricks on us heart will get hurt, Tapur .
Tapur came and held her hand and apologized Bondita . She told with tears what all happened when Somnath had taken away and what she spoke with him and Bhatuk hiding the fact that she and Bhatuk are friends already and what all he did for her in past .
Tapur : I know didi.. Infact I didn't tell myself in starting itself. But the way SOMNATH jamayibabu is becoming crazy for Tupur didi and yelling on me for not able to Remember a town name and again he only crying for Tupur didi made me feel that he is suffering alot .
And without me breaking promise only they have found the truth. Later I also told how sensitive our Tupur didi is and narrated what all she told to somnath jamayibabu.
Tapur : By listening to all that Somnath jamayibabu also cried for her didi and somewhere I felt like his tears are genuine only . It touched my heart didi .
When Thakuma is confronting everyone in garden he is about to come but I only stopped and took the entire blame on myself . I once again requested him to keep my Tupur didi happily and he carressed my hair affectionately like an elder brother. I really don't think he will go and do harm to Tupur didi or do anything that will break her .
Bondita is moved away by the way tapur explained all the incidents and also the way she explained Somnath about Tupur didi. She is in thoughts of what to do now how to proceed further
Tapur held her sister's hand and told : I am not as intelligent as you didi. But if you and Anirudh jamayibabu still feel that I have done wrong you can do whatever you want .
But I can only say one thing. You have earlier told me that Anirudh jamayibabu coming for you to Siliguri after you cutting off ties with him have started melting your heart gradually. Probably Tupur didi may also wish for the same na didi. May be she will also feel happy and may be they both will also start their life newly right?
Bondita hugged her sister and shedded happy tears telling: you are really grown up tapur . Your way of thinking is very mature and also sensitive. I am so happy with you.
Tapur also shedded happy tears and asked her to let Somnath jamayibabu go there and meet Tupur didi . May be she will feel happy
Bondita thought for a while and told that : we will look into it Tapur . If I am not wrong he have already started to Siliguri right and thats why you are stopping me throughout the evening. Am I right?
Tapur held her ears and nodded her head
Bondita also laughed and said : fine then let's go to sleep now . I will speak with Patibabu tomorrow.
Tapur : I forgot to ask . Why are you here? I mean you won't leave Anirudh jamayibabu In the night time na
Bondita: Tapur and kept hands on waist
Tapur held her ears and told sorry.
Bondita laughed back and told Patibabu went to hospital because Munshi kaka had gotten heart attack.
While telling that her smile is dropped and thought how is Munshi kaka condition now and became dull ..
While thinking only she laid beside tapur and closed her eyes

During early hours when ANIRUDH is in visitors gallery having partial sleep he got Awakened by duty doctor.
Anirudh asked what is the matter doctor..how is he now
Duty doctor told : His condition is very bad. Seems like this is not the first time he got it . Do you have his previous medical history?
Anirudh told : No doctor.. I mean sorry we don't have his previous medical history (he felt guilty to tell this ) .he joined in Munshi post in our haveli 2 years ago . By seeing his genuine track we have given job and he told that he had no one for him . He is alone in this world
Duty doctor: Mr. Anirudh! He is dreaming of someone's name continuously in Unconscious stage and worrying for him. If you could manage to bring that person chances are there that he will recover. Can you please come and listen of what he is dreaming and find out what is his problem . Now only he got consciousness so you go and talk to him
Anirudh nodded and went inside room .
He saw Munshi silently weeping and looked as if he lost in thoughts and Murmuring something
Anirudh placed his hand softly on Munshi arm and asked for whom are you worrying kaka ? Please tell me. I will do what I can do for you
Munshi shooked his head and told : Nothing malik..
Anirudh: Kaka ! How long will you Carry this burden in your heart? By sharing it the burden will get reduced na kaka. May be your problem will get solution. Come on kaka !
Munshi also couldn't hold the burden and told with breaking voice that : my ... grandson... Biswas...and cried vigorously
Anirudh furrowed his eyebrows and asked : your grandson...you didn't tell about him anytime and you used to stay in quarters alone only na kaka . As far as I know no one had visited you in these 2 years
Munshi then told painfully that Biswas is his late daughter's son . He is of 15-16 years age by now and after his mother passed away in childhood his father got married another woman and his grandson is now in the clutches of his father and cruel step mother's hands and was getting mistreated by them
Yesterday one news came about him in newspaper and that was unable to accept by my old heart .. I have lost Anirudh babu..I was defeated by destiny in my life .
My grandson biswas is in horrible situation. He is thrown out of their village and is left in forest.
My daughter's soul must be crying and he too cried
Anirudh's eyes are widened and asked : what ? He was left in forest all alone. How could anyone do this to their own son ?
Munshi told that his son in law changed alot after his second wife gave birth to a boy his grandson is nowhere worthy for any of them . My grandson is a clever boy he quickly grasps anything but he was stopped sending to school and they started treating him as servant.. he was not being taught proper ethics well.
Anirudh: Did you ever ask them to give back his grandson?
Munshi: I asked but they didn't give because if he was gone out he will definitely shine and come back for his right in their property . That's why his step mother along with her mayka people have kept him in their captive.
For me they told that they are taking well and made me believe it for many years.
my son in law was already a puppet in her hands and by her influence only he told sternly that he is taking care of Biswas very well
But two days back only I have learnt unbelievable facts from One of the common relative of mine and our son in law that Either they did not give proper upbringing. And because of that he was addicted to all kind of bad habits and don't know how to respect women .
They ...they didn't teach him any moral values .. ANIRUDH babu and he was turned as womaniser.
By telling this his bp started raising . With much difficult he again told that ; They have successfully turned a diamond into stone and he started falling after every woman their villagers got angry and left him in a wild forest and threatened him not to come into village
Anirudh is moved away listening to all this. How low can people stoop just for money and property..
Munshi bp started raising and ANIRUDH called doctor to examine him . With much difficult it was controlled after a while .
Anirudh promised that he will save biswas and bring him from there. He will give new life to him ..it's a promise
Munshi looked happily and dripped into sleep

Next day ANIRUDH came back to house with tired face . They have sent one of their servant to look after Munshi kaka throughout the morning
Bondita is already back to Roy Chowdhary haveli and got ready and gave arti to Durga maa.
After puja Her ksj started asking where did her sister go. When she is about to answer her Patibabu came with tired face and their topic got diverted.
Trilochan asked what's the matter beta. How is Munshi bansilal now
Anirudh narrated his sad story and told that he had promised munshi kaka that he will get back his grandson back .
Bondita is moved away listening to his story and told Definitely you should help him Patibabu and as usual Trilochan looked displeased with Anirudh fitoori. He asked leave their personal matters beta. Villagers are not fools to keep a healthy person in forest. We should not focus on everyone's problems just like that
Bondita: ksj ! Munshi kaka helped us alot when Patibabu went to that parimala house in past . Now it's our turn to help him
Trilochan: he is naukar to us bahu.. we are owners. It's natural for naukar to do works for owner
Bondita: won't owners have any responsibility towards their workers ksj ? If workers aren't there then where are owners in this world ..
Moreover bansilal kaka is working in Munshi post which means only to look after accounts. But still he is doing many of our personal works . Can't we solve his one personal problem and that too when he is in this condition
Trilochan left from there with dissatisfied expression that these two are always fitoori and invite Unnecessary headaches
Bondita asked Anirudh to come and get fresh and followed him to their room .
He went into washroom and came out after getting bathing in bathrobe
She already kept his clothes aside . He came to her and asked how are things here . Did you speak with Tapur
She narrated their conversation with her sister Tapur previous night .
Anirudh: oh so Tapur joined her Somnath jamayibabu party right
Bondita smiled and told yes Patibabu.. she is feeling that her jamayibabu needs a chance
Anirudh sighed and asked : But what will Tupur think of us ? She kept her problem in our hands and we have kept her in safest place to get educated and create her own identity in distance place. If Somnath goes there will she not get disturbed? What will Tupur think of us ...that we have broken our promise
Bondita: Patibabu Tapur didn't tell directly but she looked at me as if accusing that you also came for me 18 months before. If she ask then we won't have any answer na Patibabu.
Anirudh thought for a while and asked : when did he leave to Siliguri?
Bondita: probably yesterday evening only Patibabu
Anirudh thought for a while and immediately got ready and went to study room and made calls to principal surender sir and his family and talked to him that his brother Tupur husband is coming please dont allow him to meet unless you get faith on his intentions and trust him and also keeping Tupur mental condition in view
Surendra agreed to what Anirudh told and assured that he will look into this matter and disconnected the phone .
Anirudh told her that he is going to bring Biswas from that cruel people. I may not be with you when you join PUC course . You only have to manage
She kept her hand in his and assured that she will manage everything here . She herself will go and submit admission form in college by herself .
Anirudh smiled and told : shabbash Bondita khoob bhalo
