|4. Moments|
Ruhana is elated to receive a phone call. The joy in her voice brings a smile on Vineet's face. She disconnects the call and turns to Vineet, who asks the reason of her happiness.
"Bhaiya is coming to jaipur!" she tells her husband.
"Tum toh aise khush ho rahi ho jaise wo hamare sath rahenge. Zaroor koi case hoga. Unko time na hua toh please udaas mat ho jana tum." Vineet says teasingly.
"Haan! Wo toh hai!! Case hi hain, but he said wo hamse milne aayenge. Finally! 2 saal baad , we'll meet him." Ruhana says happily.
Vineet smiles at her excitement. Well, why won't she be? She'll be meeting her brother after two long years - - - and he's her real brother. But, owing to his duty, he's not able to check upon her. Though, they call each other often, yet the feeling to meet your loved one when they are close to you is surreal. Ruhana's trance is broken by Tara.
"2 saal baad kyun milogi tum apne bhai se? I mean wo kahan hain?" she asks.
"Oh sorry! I got too excited. Mere bhaiya CID Officer hain mumbai mein. Toh unhe bahut kam mauka milta hai yahan aane ka. Literally, hamari shadi ke baad hum ab milenge unse." Ruhana says clasping her hands together.
"Oh! Cid!" Tarika repeats the word, her heartbeat paces as Ruhana mentions about CID.
"Yes yes! Senior inspector Abhijeet!" Ruhana tells them.
Dhruv and Tara share a glance. So, it's Abhijeet, their colleague and friend. A fear rises in their heart. Meanwhile, Vineet asks Ruhana that they should leave, and she agrees. Bidding bye to Tara and Dhruv, they step down into their home.

Tara aka Tarika sits down on the couch.
"Abhijeet! Ab toh hum unke sath wapas jaa sakte hain na!" she looks at her companion hopefully.
"Nahi Tarika! Usey pata nahi chalna chahiye ki hum yahan hain." Daya aka dhruv says.
"Par kyun! Ab toh Abhijeet bhi aa raha hai. We can go!" Tarika retorts.
"Bhulo mat! Us gang ke log ab tak hamare peeche hain. Unse Abhijeet aur hamare baki logon ko nuksan ho sakta hai." Daya says worriedly.
"Wo log waise bhi hume dhundh rahe honge na?" Tarika questions.
"Haan! Jaanta hoon. Par isse khatra badh sakta hai." Daya says.
Tarika sighs deeply. She thinks it to be a good way to go back to Mumbai along with Abhijeet, but Daya doesn't agree. Obviously, she doesn't want any harm for anyone. Her trance is broken by Daya who tells her that they have to be a little careful, if it's really Abhijeet, who's Ruhana's elder brother.

Mumbai - CID Bureau.
The officers are in the bureau owing to a case.
"Rajat, tickets confirm ho gaye?" Abhijeet asks Rajat, who's also a senior inspector.
"Haan Sir! Maine Nikhil se bola hai prints nikaalne ke liye." Rajat informs his senior.
"Aur us murder case ki files?" Abhijeet asks, he feels they will need the files and the proofs to help the CID of Jaipur.
"I've packed the files, sir. Mere pas hai. Aur ye soft copy is pendrive mein! Rajat sir, aap rakh lijiye na ye!" purvi hands a small pendrive to Rajat and he keeps it safely.
Checking upon other things - - Abhijeet, Rajat, Purvi and Nikhil leave for their homes. They have to catch a flight early morning and they should get a good sleep.
*****
Jaipur - RuVi Home
Tara and Dhruv have their dinner in silence. They don't know what to speak.
Tara looks at Dhruv blankly.
"Tumhe nahi pata tha ki Abhijeet ki ek behen bhi hain?" Tarika asks.
"Mujhe kaise pata hoga, Tarika? Main toh soch raha hun agar usey pata chal gaya toh kya hoga?" Dhruv says fearfully.
Abhijeet and Daya are best friends, but earlier, Daya was in Bangalore and Abhijeet never mentioned his family or sister. Daya and Tarika share a glance, and the lady hugs him, breaking into tears.
"I am tired, Daya! Let's go back." she says amidst tears.
"Be patient, Tarika. Main nahi chahta, ki hamari wajah se Ruhana, Vineet ya hamari team ko koi nuksan ho!" Daya says smearing her back.
They both are going through the same feeling. They want to go back but they are stuck. They don't want to create problems for their landlords as well. Daya kisses softly on Tarika's head and asks her to be a little more patient. He leaves her and moves to get some water, but Tarika holds his hand and says something that leaves him surprised.
To Be Continued.
What did Tarika say?
Stay tuned.
