*****

(She reached inside a big house. How could she forget this place ever? This is the place which snatched her happiness, her peace, her fearless character, everything. How she could easily roam here and there in this house a decade ago and how she now was afraid to even enter this house. She moved through the darkness surrounding the house. Suddenly, a bold and hoarse voice made her to stop.)

Voice: Aa gyi jaaneman? Tch, tch kitna intezar kia tumhari ek jhalak ka, aur dekho, hr saal ki tarah aaj bhi tum mere saamne ho.

Suman (gaining courage): M to tumhare saamne hu, pr tum to mujhe ab bhi nhi dikhe?

Voice: Ufff! Tumhari ye adayein, inhone hi mujhe tumhara deewana bna diya h. Hme dekhne ke liye itni tadap? Koi baat nhi. Aaj to tumhara hi din h.

(He clicked his fingers and the light went on and here we get to see the devil. Lusty eyes scanning our poor soul, lips twitched in a smirk)

t_a_n_y_a___ you are right di, he's the Villain, VERMA.

Verma: Ab mil gya na inn nazro ko sukoon, chalo ab ek achi bachhi ki tarah, yaha, mere saamne aao. (Suman stood still)

Verma: (in serious tone) Sunai nhi diya kya, idhar aao, smjhi!

(Suman took a deep sigh and with small steps in front of him. To be honest, she can lie to everyone but to herself. She was really weak from inside, she didn't have the courage to face the person who disrespected. She couldn't gather enough strength to face the person who led her one of the dearest friend, Pushkar, listen so much about what character does she possess. But she knew, it's now or never. So she did what he told her.)

Verma: Arre? Ab yaha seedhe khade kese ho gyi? Ab tk to tumhe aadat ho jani chaiye, chalo apne saath jo lai ho wo mujhe do.

(Suman stepped forward towards him. His smirk turned into a deep one. But after sometime, he noticed, she didn't stop at a distance but kept coming close towards where he was standing.)

Verma: Arre wah! Aaj to sherni bann gyi tum, khud mere paas, hmesha to bs das min me ek katputli ki tarah wo bag mujhe de jati thi, aaj bdi himmat aa gyi tumme. Koi baat nhi, tumhe to sirf ek chote se kaam ke liye bulaya tha pr agar tumhe itna hi shauk h to hm aage....

(Left words remained unsaid from his mouth because Suman was clenching his throat in her right hand.)

Suman: Kya? Ha? Kya bol rha tha tu? Tujh jese ko meri juti na puche. Inn do saalo me tu to yaha se chla jata ho, pr ye ek esi jaga tha jisse meri achi yade judi thi, aur teri, teri waja se m iss jaga pr aaj ke din ke alawa pair rkhna nhi chahti. Smjha kya h tune mujhe? Ha? Jo tu chahega, Sumo kregi? Tere pairo me giregi, tere isharo ko maanegi? Bacchu, ab to tera kissa khtm. Bhot jhuka lia tune mujhe aur bhot jhuk gyi m. Ab mujhe tujh jese insaan ka chehra na zindagi me kbhi nhi dekhna h. Tu yaha se ghr nhi seedha jahannum pahochega. Royega aur kosega khudko ki tune uss din itni himmat ki kese...

(Verma was trying to make her leave him but she didn't budge. He, in a split second, whacked her arm and then fold it to her back. She shouted a little.)

Verma: Kya bol rhi thi abhi? Mujhe, Verma ko tu, bandariya si, jahannum pahochaegi, tu uss din bach gyi na, tbhi teri itni himmat hui, agar uss din na bachti tb pta chlta tujhe, ki Verma kya cheez h. Speech to bhot badi dedi, par tu mere changul se bach nhi payegi. Na na na...ese kese..

(Suman was trying her best to release from his grip but his grip was tightening per second. Suddenly his hold loosened. She turned back to see Shravan holding his hand and throat with both of his hands. She was astonished to see him here. She was just staring at the scene in front of us with big eyes. He started beating Verma blue and black and phir to Verma ko koi sharma bhi nhi bacha paya. After few moments, police arrived and arrested him and left the place. A dark silence was surrounding our Shraman and they both didn't tear apart their gaze from each other's face for a long time. Shravan broke the eyelock.)

Suman: Shravan, tum yaha?

Shravan: To aur kya karta? Tumne mujhe btaya kyu nhi? Aaj agar m nhi aata to wo tumhe...Sumo kyu ek baar btaya nhi? Hum kuch raasta dhund skte the na, pr nhi, tumhe to apni hi chalani hoti h hmesha. Hmesha khud kyu tumhe mahaan banna hota h tumhe, saamne dekho to sahi koun h, uske paas kuch bada khatra to nhi, pr nhi, mt suno kisi ki, khud hi bni rho SUMO.

Sumo: M sorry Shravan, pr mere paas aur koi raasta nhi tha. Mene 2 saalo se Pushkar aur Ramnath uncle ko meri waja se tension me dekha h. Hmesha chaha hi sbki khushi ki waja bnu, dukh ki nhi, unhone mera itna saath diya, mujhpr vishwas kia, agar aaj m unhe yaha bulati, to pta nhi ye Verma unhe kya kya sunata, isliye m yaha akeli aayi, aur tum kyu itni chinta kr rhe ho, na kuch hua h aur na hi m kuch hone deti.

Shravan: Sumo ye kya pagalpan tha, koi gun to chaaku to nhi laayi thi na saath me, agar usne tumpe vaar kr dia hota to kya krta m? Kese jeeta?

(He hugged her and continued saying.)

Shravan: Mujhe nhi pta ki kise kitni parwaah h tumhari, pr mujhe bhot h, aur kbhi mt sochna ki tumhare saath koi nhi h, umhe sunne wala, tumhari madad krne wala, hm sb tumhare saath h sumo, sb nhi to m hmesha hu aur hmesha rahunga.

(Sumo broke the hug.)

Sumo: Thank you Shravan. Pr tum ye to btao tum yaha aaye kese?

Flashback

(Suman left the PCT fast without telling Preeta anything. She became suspicious and called Shravan.)

Preeta: Hello Shravan ji, m Preeta bol rhi hu PTC se, pehchana?

Shravan (chuckling): Ha Preeta, pehchan lia, aaj tumne kese phone kia?

(Preeta told her everything from sumo going to storeroom, coming with pale face and leaving from PCT. Shravan became worried.)

Shravan: M abhi aata hu.

(Shravan reached PCT. He interrogated from Preeta.)

Preeta: Shravan ji wo office me hi bethi thi, phir phn aaya to store room me chli gyi aur phir apna saman leke chli gyi.

Shravan: Hmm, acha kya yaha pe cctv camera h?

Preeta: Hnji Shravan ji, office me h.

(They went through the recording and Shravan got the number from zooming the recording and saw her reactions. He was amused by her behaviour. He left PCT and tried to track her number but couldn't. Then he suddenly remembered that he has put a GPS in her car because of some official reasons. He tried to track it and was successful. Then he reached the spot and was shocked to see Suman's condition and that too because of Verma. He didn't had to take decisions foolishly and so he called police.)

*********

Suman: Acha, ab smjhi.

Shravan: Ye sb to theek h, pr ab tum btao Sumo, ye Verma tumhare peeche kyu padha h?

Suman: Shravan wo..

Shravan: Ab mujhe koi bahana nhi sunna h Sumo, tumne London me bhi mujhse sach chhupaya, mene kuch nhi kaha, pr ab pani sar ke upar ja chuka h. Mujhe btao Sumo, wo bhi sach.

(Suman started saying.)
