chapter 29

"Ved,Ved... Where are you ?" Raghav shouted like a monster after entering into the house.Just then breaking his trance, a tall man appeared in front of Him.Raghav run to him in a go and grabbed his shirt collar, asked with murderous eyes "Yee?? Kya Khel Khel Raha Hai Tu Aab? Tera Himmat Kesha Hua Farhad Pai Attack Karne Ka?Bol, Kya Chahata Hai Tu ? " Ved slowly freed himself from Raghav. Walking back to his side, adjusting himself in a moveable chair. He told with his unique style " Yarr, Raghav. Tumhe Pata Hai Naa Ki Mujhe Tumhara Ehi, Ehi Gussa Bilkul Bhi Pasand Nahi Hai. Yarr Tum Etna Impatience Kyn Hai? Akhir Kar Itne Din Ke Baad Mile Hen?  Pata Hai Mene Tumhara Favorite Biriyani Mangai Hai. Tumhara Favourite Restaurant Se. Dekha, Mai Tumse Kitna Pyar Karta Hai? " Raghav knew how smart and dangerous Ved is or can be if the situation arrives. He knew each fact about that person sitting before him and vice versa. You know, who is the best enemy you have? The one who knows your root to leaf. Ved is the only one of such category Raghav have. Whatever his agenda is, Raghav couldn't take it easy. He wanted to learn what he is up to. He needs it and he knew without any solid evidence, he won't call him like this. "Dek, Mai Ea Tera BakBak Sunne Ko Nehi Aya... Bas Boh Bol Jiske Liye Tum Mereko Bulaya Hai? Ardham Aynda. Aur Tum Ye Daniel Ke Ghar Mai Kya Kar Reha Hai ?" Raghav roared in anger."Aree, Shit, Mai Toh Tumko Introduce Karna Bhul Gaya Tha. Raghav, Ye Hai Daniel. Tumhen Toh Eska Pura Biodata Pata Hi Hogo Expect Ki Ye Mera Dost Tha Aur Mene Hi Ese Kaha Tha Ki Tumne Eske Bhai Ko Mara Hai. Maine Hi Use Tera Vareme Sab Bataya. Maine Hai Ese Manipulate Kiya Tha Tereko Marne Ke Liye. Jara Yaad Kar, Kuch Din Pehele Tumpe Attack Hua Tha, Voh Vhi Mene Hi Karwaya Tha Daniel Ke Help Se."Kyn, Chock Geya Naa. Par Yarr, Tu Aur Tera Chela Bar Bar Bach Kese Jate Ho Bee. " What !! That means It was Ved behind all that happened to Pallavi and Daniel. But How did Ved made Daniel believe in his words and When did this happen? He was in jail and Ved also didn't know about Pallavi and My marriage. Then ?? Raghav's brain started connecting dots but failed Somehow. Ved noticed his expression and a devilish smile emerged on his face."Raghav, Raghav. Khud Ke Dimag Mai Inta Pressure Mat Dalo . Tumko Aur Bhi Bada Jhatka Lagne Bala Age. Tum Eahi Soch Raha Hai Naa Ki Hum Kab Mile .Daniel Kese Mare Baat Pe Yakin Kar Liya. Well, Simple Hai, Mane Usko Ek Kahani Sunaee. Us Kahani Mai Tumhara Aur SP Ka Deal Hua Tha. Tum John Ko Trap Mai Phasaya Aur Mar dala. SP  Usi Murder Ka Faida Uthaya Aur John Ko Culprit Manke Sara Missing Aur Kidnapping Cases Close Kar Diya. Balde Mai SP Ko Mila Promotion Aur Raghav Rao Ko... Raghav Rao Ko Har Smuggling Consignment Mai Police Ka Commission Chut. Kyan ?? Hai Naa Ek Realistic and Believable. Aur Rahi Baat Hum Kese Mele Toh Ye Tumhara Homework Hai, Agar Sab Mai Bata Dega Toh Tumhare Chele Kya Karenge Re?" Raghav couldn't believe his ears now. How cunning this dog is? He just got both frustrated and stunned how he took advantage of the current affairs of the city from the daily newspaper and formed this story to achieve his objective. He is just unpredictable. "Toh Tum Hi Ho MasterMind in Sab Ke Pichhe. Tum Hi Jiske Vase Se Pallavi Kidnap Hua Aur Daniel Ko Marnna Pada. Vedddd... Mai..." Raghav's anger topped its pick, he searched for the gun to shoot That vampire in front of him. But, No... Where is the pistol? He remembered he had brought it. Then? That's when Ved took the same out from his pocket with a mischievous smile and said" Kyn? Ehi Dhundh Raha Hai Naa Tum? " Hn !! When did he take it from Raghav? Raghav remembered when he was arguing with him holding his shirt collar a few minutes ago, maybe he has took out it from him. "I know how impatience and short-tempered you are? I can't take a chance, so I took it.Aab, Tumhare Bari Hai Kahani Sunaee Ka. Aur Ek Kahani. Toh Ea Ek Sampurn Sartya Ghatna Par Adharit Hai Aur Eska Samhandh Raghav Rao Se Hai..." Ved again started his part.Raghav didn't want to listen to his random tale. What If Ved Now manipulate Him just like Daniel with his well made fake story. He didn't want to even think about it? But he can't run or attack him being impulsive. If he attacks, he will never be able to know his secret and if he runs away to avoid him, Ved may shoot. And Ved is undoubtedly a sharpshooter. He can crack the gole in one shot even from 200 metres away."Yee Ved, Sun. Mereko Tera Kahani Mai Koi Intrest Nehi Hai Bes Kam Ki Baat Bata..." This time he stood up and roared."Relax Raghav. Kya Flight Chut Raha Kya Tumhare. Are Ek Baar Sun Toh, Bhahat Interesting Kahani Hai. Pakka Pasand Ayega.." And then he started...Once there lived two friends in a town. One name was X and the Second one was Y. They both were too close to each other. Illogical Dimond Smuggling was the main business them. Everything was going good until one day, X found some Drug Packets in one container. Then he came to know that It was Y behind this. Then he insulted Y and drove him out of the gang. But Y didn't stop there, he decided to take revenge and planned something. He hired some of his boys in X gang with fake identities secretly and again started the same drug racket. But one night, there was heavy rain. X got to know about one of such boys in his gang. Poor boy, it was his wedding night. X run to catch him red-handed. When that boy saw X in front of him, he tried to run. But before he could escape, X shot him. He died on the spot.  Ohh, so sad. The wife of that boy became window in a single night.Now, the real twist came. After two years of this incident, that widow got married again. Do you know who is her new husband? It's none other than X himself. The girl was unaware of her husband's cheating until Y arrives in town. Now, Y have decided to tell her everything...Now, the question is what will the girl do after knowing the truth? Come on, Say? The first part of the story was familiar to him. Raghav knows who are they. But he couldn't understand the second part clearly except for the fact that it is Somehow related to Pallavi. But What? Breaking his deep thought, Ved showed a picture of him "Pata Hai Na Ye Kyon Hai? " "Faruk, the guy whom I shot that night. " Raghav replied with a confused face."No. This is his fake name. His real name is Mandar.Mandar Deshmukh." He announced proudly.The name" Mandar Deshmukh" echoed in his head. His heart froze in fear. His handsome face fell flat and the sudden darkness covered around."Mandar... Matlab Pallavi Ka Pehla Pati. I had killed him. Nooo" Ohh, the slap of destiny !! He wanted to shout in frustrations and helplessness but thought something. What's a warranty that this Ved is not lying as he lied to Daniel. What if he is just trying to break him but he didn't have seen Mandar's photo once? He needed to confirm first. " Tumhara Pass 72 hours Hai, Sach Bolne Ka Varna Mai Khud Pallavi Ko Sara Sach Bata Dega...Good luck My best friend." Ved shock his palm decorated with a gun with a wink. And it became dark everywhere. He got up from his chair and screamed Ved's name repeatedly. But when he switched on his phone flashlight, no one was there except him. The scared confused Raghav."Ved, I know you are here. Hay, you won't do it...Hay, Ved..."Ved had a master degree in running away, doesn't matter who is behind. Police or Raghav Rao.While driving back to home in disappointment, tightening his fist on the steering wheel. All he was wishing for that story to be a lie. He couldn't bear its dark truths neither did Pallavi. But everything was true in that Kaahani except the fact that the boy he shot that night was Mandar. How did he miss that to the inquiry before? His heart was beating faster and his mind playing hide and seek with itself.To be continued ⏭️
