Authors note:

I'm back… with a new story off course on duo…

Now let me repeat…medical points will not be satisfactory….readers pls concentrate on emotion not on medical points

Story:

The alarm buzzed. He turned the alarm off in its very first ring because he was well awake... yes there was a day when his buddy had to spend a good amount of time in awakening him and often referred it as the toughest job…but now mostly he used to spend a sleepless night almost. He just dozes off only to wake after few minutes. He got down the bed moved to calendar crossed one more date and murmured "18 din".

He went to washroom freshen up and came out hear his mobile ringer so picked up with "ha Adi bolo"

" woh kal bhi koi news.."

"nahi yaar koi news nahi mila"

"arey tm pareshan mat ho wo mil jayega.."

"hmm.."

"tum apna khayal to rakh rahe ho na?"

"ha..wo to rakhna hi hey…mujhe thik to rehna hi hoga..boss ko.." his voice chocked..

Adi also felt a lump in his throat "Daya..Abhijeet thik hoga tum…" he can't say anything more so just cut the call… Daya looked at the mobile.. "Adi tum ko to thik se rona bhi nahi ata.."

He moved to kitchen took a glass of milk and two toasted plain bread…then moved to quails. ..drove to bureau..

On the way driving he looked at the passenger seat and suddenly saw his buddy sitting there busy in looking outside

"Abhi.."

"arey kya yaar samne dekhke gari chala accident ho gaya to.."

Daya forwarded his hand to touch his Abhi.. but he vanished in air…

His voice still remained in his ears so he concentrated on driving.

He reached bureau.. he was about to enter when he heard a voice.. "boss kab tak..koshish jari hy..try ker rahe hey yeah sab bolte rehenge hum media walo ko?pubic ko police yeah sab bolte rehte hey…hum apne bache ko hi dhund nahi parahe aur yeah sab bole jarahe hey.."

ACP sir sighed with "kya karu Salunkhe..sab mujse sawal puchte hey..Daya ki wo khamosh ankhe per mere pas koi jabab nahi hey.."

Freddy said "sir HQ koi kadam kiu nahi lete..unhone hi to yeah mission… aur uni mese kisiki gaddari ki bajase yeah leak hua aur Abhijeet sir.."

Vivek said "22din pehle jab yeah mission aya tha tab se Daya sir keh rahe they ki kuch galat…"

Daya who was standing at the gate drifts back to past with these words..

Flashback starts.

Twenty two days before.

Duo enters bureau…to find Freddy sad and Vivek consoling him...Tasha fuming in anger... Daya went to Freddy… "arey Vivek kya hua tumhare pyare Freddy sir ko?"

Abhijeet went near Tasha asked "DCP aya tha kya?"

Tasha nodded.. Vivek added "saath mey unke ek chela bhi.."

Abhijeet was about to scold Vivek for his choice of words when ACP sir came out of his cabin with "Abhijeet tumlog agaye?"

"ha sir koi kaam tha..?"

"ha DCP sir aye they saath mey HQ ki orders leke HQ ka agent bhi.."

"orders"

"ha ek mission mey jana hey tumhe.."

All turned to attention mode.. Abhijeet turned his full attention to ACP.. when suddenly Daya felt something bad..as if a bad omen is signaling him..something deep inside is nagging him…so he started felling restless.

Abhijeet noticed it well but for time being ignored it.. and asked ACP for the details of mission..

"ha ek gang hey..pure Maharashtra mey kafi active hey unka main adda pune mey hey…tumhe unme included hona hey disguise mey fir…"

But he stopped due to sudden question of Daya as "sir Abhi…mera matlab Abhijeet ka jana jaruri hey?"

All attention turned to Daya..firstly because of his tone secondly the call Abhi..which he usually avoided in duty hours…Abhijeet by eyes signaled him that he will speak to him later..but Daya didn't seem convinced.. ACP sir said in a soft tone "Daya orders HQ se Abhijeet ke liye hi koi pareshani.."

Daya don't know what to answer so looked at Abhijeet.. Abhijeet signaled him to keep quiet and said "nahi sir..aap kuch bol rahe they.."

But just then the bureau phone rang.. a case was reported and everyone went to investigation..

At evening.

At duo's home, Daya had come earlier after submitting the reports while Abhi was late as he had gone to meet some of his khabris then went to bureau to get details of mission and complete some formalities.

When Abhijeet came back he found Daya sitting on sofa cuddling a pillow. Abhi came forward sat beside him, kept a hand over his shoulder called softly "Daya.."

Daya just turned and hugged him with "Abhi mat jao na.."

Abhijeet confusingly patted his back with "Daya kya hua ha? Pareshsan kiu hey itna?"

"pata nahi yaar..per jab se iss mission ka suna hey bahut darr lag raha hey…ghabrahat si ho rahi hey..jab se suna aisa lag raha hey jaise dobara kabhie aise apne Abhi ke pass nahi apayunga…" (he separated and looked at Abhijeet) "aise lag raha hey ki mein tumhe kho dunga.." his tone was really scared… "please boss mat jao…na..tum..koi bhi bahana bana do…tum mat jao.."

Abhijeet looked at Daya.. said softly "Daya yeah humari duty ka part hey na yeah missions?"

Daya just nodded. Abhijeet continued "to? Mein jaldise sab khatam kerke ajaunga..yeah sab kya soch raha hey..tere rehte mujhe kuch ho sakta hey?"

Daya nodded in no and turned his face to other side "per"

"koi per nahi..tujhe mujhpe bharosa hey na?"

"ha..pura.."

"to bus…sir ney 15din mey kaam khatam kerne ko kaha hey…mein 12 din mey kerke apne Daya ke pass bapas ajayunga.."

Daya turned "sach?"

"ha sach..aur waise bhi disguise mey mujhe apne team member nahi pehchnte to yeah log thori hi na jan payenge…mein sare sabot sare info akettha kerke itna jaldi ajayunga ki dekhna.."

Daya didn't seemed convinced asked "roj signal doge na?"

"ha mere baap.."

"aur koi bahaduri nahi dikhaoge..hero giri.."

"nahi karunga.."

"aur koi bhi khatra najar aye to mujhe.."

"turant call kerke bula lunga…ok?"

"tum jaldi ajaoge na Abhi.."

Flashback ends

Daya was standing still "12 din kehke gaye they aur aj 18 din…mission leak ho gaya fir tum kidnap hue…wo videos..tumhe unlogo ne kitne torcher kiye..Electric shocks...drugs..aur na jane kya kya..sab video kerke un logo ne vej diya..challenge kiya hume…chote se chote lead pey bhi humne chanbin ki per tum…kaha ho tum Abhi.."

Daya sighed and entered the bureau…

Tasha Vivek and Freddy looked at the man,… his tired steps resembles only the need to do duty not the love for duty fullness of life..

ACP and Salunkhe just hid their eyes from him…

Daya just wished them good morning…and sat on his desk… Freddy whispered to Vivek after seeing Daya involve in work "Daya sir kitne tut chuke hey fir bhi duty se kabhie piche nahi hatte.."

Daya heard that and was lost…he didn't heard what Vivek answered

His ears heard some past voices

"duty sabse agey hey..har rishta har kamjori sabse pehle duty ata hey"

"Daya kabhie bhi kuch bhi ho jaye duty se muh mor ke ACP sir aur mera bharosa mat torna."

Daya came out of his pool of thoughts with his mobile ringer…
