"Oderly, tumne Lt. mona ko dekha kya?" Vidyut aka him desperately.

"Ha dekha hai na sir" he smiled finally " patli si hai, lambe baal... Kabhi kabhi chasma bhi lagati hai.. apne aap se hi batein karti hai, chidh chidhi si rehti hai aur..."

Vidyut stops him in irritation "abe chup... Uska description nahi manga meine tujhse... Whereabouts puch raha hu... Kaha milegi wo kuch pata hai?".

"Acaha.. waisa wala dekha." He saw her  behind vidyut "are ha sir wo rahh...." she signals him to stay quite or else she'll beat him by showing her punch "na..na..nahi.. nahi dekha sir..."

"Nahi dekha..." He sighs then looks at his wierd expression. Oderly was about to go when Vidyut stops him from his shoulder "aur sun.. aj ke baad agar tune Mona ko itne ghaur se fir kabhi dekha na tooo" his aura speaking danger.

" Meine Lt. mona ko to kya.. kisi bhi ladki ko nahi dekhunga.. mein shaadi hi nahi karunga." he nervously said seeing danger all around himself..

"Kya..." He was left flabbergasted at his sudden change of behaviour.

"Ha..jitna mujhe pata tha.. ab meine apko bata dia... Me chalta hu mujhe.. Major Saab  bula rahe hai..." He quickly runs from their.

"Sab ajeeb sa kyu behave kar rahe hai aaj..." He was confused "or ye Mona... Where is this girl. Do din se iska namo nishan gayab hai... jaise hawa mein gayab ho gayi ho, Hai kaha ye ladki" he wondered.

Meanwhile Mona listens him from her hideout "tum jaha mein waha... Magar samne nahi aungi.. pata chala rings of fire me se jump karwa raha hai..ya fir pani par chalne ki practice karayega..." She sighs "Waise bhi samne nahi aa rahi hu to bhi kaunsa shanti se reh paa rahi hu...do din se left right left karwa raha hai.... Kab chutkara milega iss bala se" she thought.

"Bhagwan jee, koi normal sa banda nahi bhej sakte the mere liye... Jiske sath me apni choti si, nanhi si, masoom si love story bana pati.." she said looking at roof.

"Itne chadhawe me mein yahi milega... Jo mila hai usi me khush raho warna ye bhi wapas ho lega" Anjali her batchmate, made the comment while passing from there.

"Kya fayeda.. aise Prasad ka.. jise sirf door se dekh sako.. magar kha nahi sako.. iss bande ko normal karo koi" she complained. "Idea! Isko pahadi se dhakka de du? Shayad dimag theek ho jaye...or agar mar mara gaya to case ashi lad legi" she thought hopefully.

"Nahi nahi...wo to chahti hi yahi hai... Me fasu aur wo ehsan jataye, or kameeni mujhse hi saari kamai karegi.. upar se fasa aur degi...no no no, pahadi se dhakka dene ka plan cancel.. stick to 1st strategy.. Escape.".

"Ye last hai.." orderly gives Rajveer, a bowl of Kheer.

"Nain... I mean Cadet Singh ne khayi thi kheer?" He aska.

"Haa.. apni batchmates ke sath le gayi thi wo..." He answers.

"Hmm.. thik hai" he was about to lift his bowl when Abhimanyu came there.

"Arey bade bhaiya... Hamare bare mein bhi puch lijiye ki chote bhai ne khaya ya nahi... Apko to pata hi hai.. muje kheer kitni pasand hai" saying this he was about to grab the bowl when Rajveer blocks him.

"Charity karna meri Maa ka kaam tha, mera nahi.... Apni chiz ko bhi dusro ko daan me de dene ki adat thi unhe magar mera dill unke jitna bada nahi hai.. samjha. Agar mujhse koi mera kuch lene ki koshish karega to mujhe cheen na ata hai" he said gritting his teeth.

Abhimanyu smiled knowing it angers him the most "kaun kis se kya cheenega ye to filhal waqt hi batayega... Filhal ke liye me iss se kaam chala lunga" he said pointing at bowl.

Rajveer pushes his bowl aside "har cheez teri tarah Haram ki nahi hoti hai..." Now it's turn for Rajveer to smile seeing Abhimanyu's hardened expression. "Lagta hai dono Maa bete ki adat hai... Dusro ki cheezo par Nazar rakhna... Tum logo ke to khoon mein hi gandagi hai".

His jaw clenched he tries to control his anger. This is not what he came here for. He needs to provoke Rajveer and not to get provoked "bade bhaiya... It's just kheer..." Getting close to him "apse apki Heer thodi na mang raha hu..." Abhimanyu gives him a nasty look pointing at Naina.

"You bastard", Rajveer was ready to pounce on him... He clutched his collar "Naina ki taraf ankh utha kar bhi dekha na.. to tere shareer ke itne tukdega karunga, ki tere shareer ke tukde ikkhate karte karte teri wo Maa ki bachi kuchi umar bhi kam pad jayegi".

"Aukat me reh...." Abhimanyu said not liking the insult of his mother.

"Tu mujhe aukat batayega... Abe ja.. pehle jakar apni uss bacchalan Maa se uski aukat puch kar aa" Rajveer spat the venom which he was holding back from months.

Hearing this Abhimanyu punched Rajveer on his jaw. He stumbles back but stables himself. Rajveer saw him with murder in his eyes and charges on him... Giving furious punches on his chest, face, shoulder and stomach not giving him chance to defend. Abhimanyu doges his punch and gets the opportunity to attack. He kicked Rajveer on his knee making him fall on floor. Abhimanyum gets over him and punched his cheeck bone twice or thrice. Rajveer flipped him and gave a powerfull puch in his nose making it bleed.

That's when Naveen came there. He saw everyone crowded in mess watching the live wrestling match. When Naveen saw all this he got shocked. "Stop it Cadets..." He ordered. "I said stop.."

When they didn't stopped and keeps on fighting like mad dogs, Naveen screamed "STOP both of you....". They stopped and looks at Naveen who was looking pissed at their behaviour.

"Attention" they both got up and stood up in front of Naveen like two kids caught stealing "kya ho raha tha ye sab... Haa. This is military academy koi kushti ka akhada nahi hai.. jaha aap janwaro ki tarah ek dusre se lade.. kya me jaan sakta hu is sab ki wajah".

"Chhodiye na Sir inka to roz ka hai..." A cadet said from the crowd.

"Shutup cadet. Jab senior baat kar raha ho to juniors beech me nahi bolte... Itna pata nahi hai apko, mein un dono se baat kar raha hu apse nahi..." He angrily said.

"Sorry sir" he lowers his head.

"No discipline at all" Naveen said then looks at Rajveer and Abhimanyu. "Apme se koi jawab dene ka kasht krega...".

"It was nothing Sir, Kheer sirf ek bowl reh gayi thi to meine kaha ki mujhe de dey agli baar mein inhe apni kheer de dunga.. ye nahi mana.. fir meine kaha ki adhi adhi baat kar kha lenege... To uske baad ye personal level pe comment karne laga" Abhimanyu made up a story making innocent face. "to mujhe bhi gussa agaya." This angered Rajveer but he stayed silent as he do not likes to explain himself.

Naveen sighed "sirf itni si baat ka itna bada tamasha.... Ek kaam karo mere hisse ki kheer le lo.."

"Apki Charity ki koi zarurat nahi Sir..." Rajveer said which startled Naveen.

"Dekha sir, iska yahi rawaiya hai.. koi iske acche ke liye kuch karna chahe usme bhi isko problem hai... Meine bhi to yahi kaha tha... Dono bhai mil baat ke khayenge..." He said last remark in a dirty way.

Rajveer's blood boiled "kheer chahiye tujhe... Ruk deta hu" he went near the counter, picked up the bowl and splashed it all over Abhimanyu's face, making everyone shocked to theirs wits

"Le kha le... Waise bhi tujhe or teri maa ko dusro ke phenke huye tukdo pe palne ki adat hai" Abhimanyu was seething in rage at his insult in front of almost whole academy.

"CADET RAJVEER..." Naveen screamed "50 rounds of ground.... NOW". Naveen ordered. Rajveer salutes him and went to complete his punishment proudly leaving Naveen confused.

"Mona" he spots her finally

She shuts her eyes "mar gayi". She turns to him as he gives her his dazzling smile making her forget everything.

"Where were you... Kaha kaha nahi dhunda tumhe", desperation was clear in his voice.

"Me.. me to yahi thi. Me kaha jaungi. Mera to koi aur thikaha hi nahi.. koi pati nahi...koi boyfriend nahi" she looks at him in longing "koi puchta hi nahi...me bechari akeli nazuk kamsin kali..kisi ko meri parwah hi kaha jo meri sudh budh le iss zalim duniya se".

"Aisa kyu keh rahi ho..I care for you" he saw her tenderly making her feel fluttery from inside "Isiliye to tumhe dhund raha tha.. so I can ask you.. will you join me for.." before he could complete she halts him.

"Wait..." She said getting afraid of his another health keeping session "I have some commitments.. I can't join you for cardio or running or jumping or anything..am sorry. Okay bye me chalti hu.. ap kudo.." saying this she quickly makes an escape "Mona brace yourself iski smile pe mat fisla kar... Warna ek din ye tujhe slip disk de dega" she warns Herself.

"Isko kyu lagta hai ki mein har bar iss se kasrat hi karwaunga?" He wonders "me to bas...date ke liye puchne aya tha ye itna dar ke kyu gayi... Iska kahi aur tanka to nahi bhid gaya kisise" he thought suspiciously.

🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺

"Pata nahi mein baki ke din kaise iss academy mein nikalunga... Ye dono ne chaar din me mera jeena haram kar diya hai... " He said getting disappointed.

"Bhaiya shant ho jaiye... Ho sakta hai unka mood kharab ho .. agya hoga gussa..." She tries to defend.

"Comon Naina.. officer ban ne wale hai wo.. or behaviour aisa hai jaise school jate bigdail bacche ho..." He shows his annoyance.

"Chhodiye na bhaiya.. aisa to hota hi rehta hai am sure jab ap cadet rahe honge to tab bhi aise jhagde hote rehte honge.." she pacifies him.

"Jhagde hote the lekin aise nahi. Tum un dono ko dekhti... Ek dusre ke khoon ke pyase lag rahe the... " She gulps hard. "Or Rajveer. Kitna kuch socha tha meine uske bare mein.. Uss se to aisi umeed nahi thi mujhe..." He said in disappointment.

Naina sat there totally helpless "God Rajveer... Kya kar rahe aap ye...agar ap Bhaiya ki nazar se utar gaye  to wo apko kabhi accept nahi karenge..or unki marzi ke khilaf me bhi nahi ja paungi".

🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺

"Rajveer apko apne gusse pe kabu rakhna hoga... Itna gussa. Please mat kiya kijiye" she said worrying.

"Mujhe bhi bewajah gussa karne ka koi shauk nahi hai... Agar samne wala ungli karega to me uska hath hi tod fekunga..." He said reminiscing that incident. His dirty words towards Naina.

"Rajveer, me janti hu wo aap ko provoke karte hai magar.... Magar apko apne gusse pe kabu rakhna hoga... Warna Bhaiya hamare rishte ke liye kabhi nahi manenge..." She said getting hyper.

"Tumhare bhaiya kaunse yaha hai mera gussa dekhne ke liye..." She realises what she said "or waise bhi.. mein aisa hi hu. Kisi ke samne kuch aur hone ka dikhawa me nahi kar sakta..." He turns away.

"Mere liye bhi nahi... Agar bhaiya nahi mane to" she was scared of his rejection.

"Toh..." He turns with jerk and holds her tightly from her shoulder "toh kya.... Rishta tod dogi mujhse..".

"Ahh.. Rajveer.. it's paining", she winced as his hold was very tight on her shoulders.

"Or uska kya jo dard tum mujhe de rahi ho...." She looks in his eyes. Anger, pain, suffering, fear and insecurity mixed in them. "Me pehle bhi keh chuka hu Naina.. aj fir dohra raha hu... Ab tum meri zindagi me aa chuki ho.. or yaha se jane ki ijazat me tumhe nahi dunga... Fir chahe uske liye mujhe tumhare bhai se hi kyu na ladna pade...".

"Calm Down Rajveer...me apko chhod kar kahi nahi jaungi... Me sirf apki hu agar bhaiya nahi bhi mane to mein fir bhi apki hi rahungi... Jo hak meine apko diya hai wo kisi aur ko nahi dungi" she gives him surety.

"Me tumhe tumse bhi nahi baat sakta hu Naina.. get that thing straight in your head... Me apni cheezo ko lekar bahot possessive hu... Or tum meri zindagi ki Sabse keemti cheez ho... I will never let you go." He said dangerously with madness which scared her to some extent but also made her feel overwhelmed at the same time seeing the intensity of his love.
