Everyone is giving him looks as Captain rajveer storm out of Brigadier chandok 's room and is marching through the corridor in his decided direction....
He looked fierce and mad..

What can anyone had done to make him so outrageous.

"Can I borrow Cadet naina singh for few minutes .... It's urgent.
He requested subedar sen.
His voice more like a command though.

Earning looks from the cadets and really intense one by few cadets.....
Subedar sen gave the permission as she also got taken back with his demeanor
And naina got up from her seat.

_______________

"What the hell did you told brigadier chandok"
Was the first question as soon as he cornered her in an isolated corridor.

"The truth.....
Which I should have reported back then"
She replied with a confident tone.

"Truth my foot....
Tumhari Bewakoofiyon ki koi had hai?"
He yelled

"Ap hi ne to kaha tha ke achcha soldier banne se pehle ek achcha insan hona zaruri hai....
I am just trying to do what is right.
I have done something wrong
And I am ready to bear the consequences"

"Consequences nahi punishment milegi...
Sach bolne ka meddal nahi dega koi tumhe"
He gasped and took a step back brushing his fingers through his hairs

"Main kya karun tumhara "
He sighed in frustration.

"Stop shielding me
Let me deal with this ,for once"
She asked him

"You have no idea what you have gotten yourself into."
He tried to make her understand.

"For the first time
I actually know what I am doing
Believe me sir"
She argued back

"For heaven's sake naina
Please samjho ...
Now listen to me carefully
We can still rectify this ok...
Just say in the inquiry meeting that......"

"I am sorry sir but
I have made up my mind"
She inturpted in between.

And he grabbed her by her right arm...in frustration

"Naina tum......."

"Captain rajveer apko brigadier chandok ne bulaya hai....
Meeting ke liye"
An orderly inturpted in between

And naina took an exit.... Before he could continue to pursue her.

----

The discussion table consisted of major Nair, dr.shalini , subedar suri, subedar sen, Captain rajveer Singh and Brigadier chandok.....

Captain Abhimanyu was kept out of it as he is still a visiting faculty.

With naina sitting at left of the table ....chair kept in a distance from the table.

Cadet huda , cadet puja and cadet Ali...
Standing at the other side of the room....
To record their statements as they were the part of the mission.

Brigadier chandok gave the opening statement letting the faculty know about the matter of the discussion....

And captain rajveer felt all the eyes from the table on him....
He can sense that Dr. Shalini is trying her best ,not to hold his arm then and there and ask about it ... If it's really true.

Suriji looks upset with the news
While major Nair is clearly smirking...

"I would like to hear what captain rajveer has to say about this.
Trying to cover up for a criminal offence...
Not reporting about such an unlawful incident."
Major Nair tried to make the best use of the opportunity.

"Sir I believe it was a mistake
Cadet Naina was trying to take dr. Mishra down..... And she ......"
Rajveer tried to mould the fact

"No sir "
But she interrupted

"I was aiming for captain rajveer
I wanted to hurt him"
She said with a strict blank face

And rajveer grinded his teeth ..and clenched his fist.
This girl has done full preparation to hang herself

Shalini was for the first time angry on naina
And huda, Ali and pooja were clueless about what to contribute....
Nothing happened before them....
And though huda had sensed the tension between them in the mission
But obviously he is not gonna say it against her.

"Did you three knew about it..."?
Brigadier chandok asked

"No sir
They came after I had shot captain rajveer
Captain rajveer was almost unconscious to tell anything and I kept quiet
And sir....the truck was in a tunnel when I pulled the trigger
Maybe that's why he is confused about who shot him
It was pitch black.....

So she has a plan to save him as well....
Or else he would be standing before the committee answering in front of the military board .... That why didn't he reported the incident.

Brigadier chandok - I am disappointed Cadet Naina Singh ....
You always manage to make me question my decision of keeping you in the academy.

"I realised my mistake sir
And therefore I want to repent...."
She accepted

Rajveer never felt so helpless in his entire life ....
She has decided something
And she is stubborn.

"I have to report this incident to higher authority.
There will be a formal inquiry
With an investigation officer taking charge of the case.
They will decide that what should be done on this matter
Till then you are suspended cadet Naina Singh."
Brigadier adjourned the meeting and soon the crowd got dispersed.

With Dr. Shalini turning towards rajveer

"We need to talk"
She said in a serious tone and left the room expecting him to follow.

Pooja came to naina to take her out with her
And as she was leaving she felt his intense gaze....
She turned to have a glance of him
And she knows that he is furious ...

____________

"Nonsense
Absolutely nonsense
How can she ..... After everything you've done for her...."

Shalini is fuming in anger
Pacing in the infirmary

While Raj sat there on couch.....
Taking the scolding from her.

"You know what
I am not even gonna ask that why you didn't report.,.
Because I know answer of that
But .... Naina.....
I am so upset with her
She has crossed all the limits of selfishness."

"It was an honest mistake Shalini
It was a reaction
You know emotionally how vulnerable she is."

"Then why did you told her at all
When you knew that she won't be able to handle the information"

"Because dr. Ritu was conspiring against us.
Use pata chal gaya tha and she was about to tell naina
Agar main nahi batata to wo bata deti"

"No matter what
What she did was wrong
And stop defending her damit....
Stop being so obvious"
She came and sat next to him

"About what".
He tried to be ignorent although he knew that what she is talking about

"You very well know that ....
Log andhe nahi hote hai... captain
Except that stupid girl , everyone knows that you ........"
She didn't complete the statement for the best .....

And he got unsettled too ....

"I can't see her going down like this Shalini
Please tell me , what should I do to atleast make sure that ..... She "

"You can do nothing captain"
She cut him in between

"You can't control everything"
She added
