June 20, 2010
At Vishwa Orphanage, New Delhi
Like every year Indian detective agency RAW was organizing a Criminal Case solving competition for orphan kids, and this time they were in Anant’s old house.
“If it was not Vishwa Orphanage, I would never have agreed for doing this job.”, Anant frowned.
“Oh C’mon Sir, we’re with little angels, don’t you think, you have to enjoy.” Shreya replied.
“On the desk of registration?, I’m an agent, I solve crime mystery and this is a registration desk, and you want me to happy with it.”, Anant replied.
“Sir, please forget it for some moment that you’re an agent.”, Shreya was saying but soon a kid interrupted.
“If you both are done? can I get registered for competition?”, Kid asked with heavy tone.
Shreya’s eyes got bigger with shock that how a kid can have attitude like that. First she looked at kid then turned her face towards Anant who was looking at kid with big red eyes.
“You get paid for staring or what?”, Kid sparked on Anant again.
Shreya wanted to reduce the heat generated between that kid and Anant so She spoke, “Oh, kid beware that uncle eats kid.”
Kid stared at Shreya and asked sarcastically, “How did you get a job at India’s top Detective Agency?”
Anant lost his temper, “Enough, What’s your name?”
“Aryan”
“and where are your partners, this competition is for team of three.”
“Do you still think I need a partner?”
“Don’t show me your overconfidence kid, You won’t be able to solve this mystery in time without any partner.”
“Let the time decide.”
An 11 year old kid talked to Anant like this and that incident was completely shocking to every single person present there.
“Sir, He is totally like you. He showed me your childhood.”, Shreya said with big eyes.
Soon, the results of competition out
Aryan got 2nd place.
Anant: “You could’ve win, if you had partners.”
Aryan: “I don’t think I lost, they solved mystery just three minutes before I did.”
Anant: “And You lost by three minutes.”
Aryan: “It gave me a new experience, so I won.”
Anant was happy with that spark in Aryan.
Anant: “You won my heart kid, I gift you my one day. You can spent a whole day with me in my personal cabin in solving cases.”
Aryan: “Thankyou, Mr. Bhardwaj. I’m glad to get that opportunity.”
Shreya was watching whole thing without getting notice by Anant or Aryan, and thinking, “How a person can be this good, I really had different image of him.”

At Raw Headquarter
Anant got some lead on Abees Rizbi’s case
Anant: “Sir, I got some clues and I’m sure Abees will be in Bengal by next month.”
Iyer: “Well done Anant, make sure this time you will have your hands on him.”
Anant: “Sir, I’ll need special task force on it and I want you to involve less people in it.”
Iyer: “Do whatever you want.”

Somewhere in Bengal
“Shreya, This time no mistake, We can catch him.”, Anant said.
“Yesss Bosss…”, Shreya replied.
“Be serious.”
“Yep”
“I’ll be on the field and I need you to stay safe and stay connected. I repeat you are not a field agent, so you stay here and do follow my orders.”
“So, you are going to attack the building today?” Shreya asked.
“Yes. Any other question?”, Anant replied.
“But, we planned it for after 2 days.”, Shreya asked again.
“Do as I say. Anything else?”, Anant answered with staring her.
“Just keep yourself alive.”, She was red.
Anant went inside the building with complete task force and soon he reached to Abees’s room.
Anant kicked the door and pointed a gun to a person, wearing a black colored tuxedo, and specs he was around 45 years old, was standing in front of him with folded hands.
“Hello, Mr. Anant Bhardwaj, Nice to meet you, do I need an Introduction?.”, That man said with an evil smile.
“You are under arrest, Abees Rizbi.”, Anant shouted with anger.
A sound of machine guns came from outside…..
“I said, Mission Abort.”, Shreya on Earphone.
“Do you still think you can catch me? Ha Ha Ha.”, Abees said.
“What happened Shreya?”, Anant asked.
“He knew that we’re coming, he killed all, please keep yourself alive.”, Shreya replied.
“Bring the van under the window of Abees’s room.”, Anant ordered by looking at window.
“What’s in your mind?, What are you thinking?, You could kill yourself.”, Shreya asked in a sad tone.
“I can’t miss this chance Shreya, Please Just do as I say.”, Anant said with tears in eyes.
Anant ran towards window with Abees and jumped together. Shreya put both of them in van and ran from the field. She went to local RAW headquarter and saved their life.

City Hospital, New Delhi
Anant was in subconscious state since past three days. As he woke up, he found shreya was taking a nap beside him with keeping his hand in her. Anant was staring at sleeping Shreya, then suddenly a Nurse entered in the room and shouted, “Ma’am Wake up, he is fine now.”Shreya was overjoyed and her eyes filled with tears. She looked at Anant with a pair of wet eyes, “Sir…”“Is there something weird with your face? you are crying. It doesn’t look good to your face, Shreya smile. I’m fine now.”, Anant made some efforts to make her smile.Doctor entered the room and gave a paper to Shreya and said, “Please, bring these injections.”Shreya left room with some words, “Sir, I’m Happy.”“You are very lucky mister, your girlfriend didn’t move from this room since you arrived. You’re lucky that you have a person who loves you this much.”, Doctor said to Anant as Shreya left the room.“She is not my girlfriend, she is a friend from work.”, Anant replied with frowned eyebrows.“Sorry Sir, but you can use my advice.”, Doctor said.

At RAW headquarter
Anant: “Sir, I think there is someone in our office who is helping Abees.”
Iyer: “How can you be that sure?”
Anant : “Because, Abees knew that we’re coming. How did he get this Information?”
Iyer: “You’re right Anant, I’ll personally investigate it.”
Shreya interrupted them
Shreya: “Sir, it’s time for your medicine.”
Anant: “Okay you wait there, I’m coming.”
Iyer noticed something then
Iyer: “You are falling in love again?”
Anant: “No, never.”
Iyer: “Last time you looked at a girl with this smile was Cheena. So, I’m pretty sure about you.”
Anant: “That was a mistake because I was a kid that time, and now I’m not.”
Anant went to interrogation room to interrogate Abees Rizbi.
Anant: “Do you remember me? Last time we spoke over a phone.”
Abees: “How can I forget man?, you love boy. Ha Ha Ha”
Anant: “Do you still remember How did you kill them?, I just want you to remember how you made me alone.”
Abees was showing an evil laugh.
Anant: “Why are you laughing?”
Abees: “I thought you’re intelligent but you’re fool.”
Anant: “This fool will kick your ass.”
Abees: “What do you think? How did I escape last time?”
Anant: “I don’t wanna solve mystery, Speak clearly.”
Abees: “Your sexy bitch Cheena is alive and that guy too.”
Anant: “Watch your language, and what do you wanna say?, What happened to that night?”
Abees: “Listen angry young man, your so called girlfriend and friend helped me escaping that night.”
Anant: “Why would they do that?”
Abees: “Because my boy they were in love and they wanted to get rid of you, so I helped them settling in Australia. Ha Ha Ha.
Anant with anger, “You are lying.”
Abees: “Go check it.”

Anant: “I want to interrogate her.”
Anant went in.
Anant: “So, How are you?”
Cheena remained silent.
Anant: “C’mon Darling, you ate something? want some coffee or tea or something?”
Cheena was just crying and was not able to look up.
Anant: “Darling! listen, I knew you were cheating me with my friend.”
Cheena: “Anant….”
Cheena was saying something but Anant interrupted her.
Anant: “Don’t you dare to call my name. I can forgive you for what you did to me but The Law can’t forgive you, it will punish you.”
Anant: “You want to say anything except personal matter?”
Cheena remained silent.
Anant was broken, was crying from inside but couldn’t say anything, He was still in love with her but couldn’t do anything.
Anant came from interrogation room.
Shreya: “Sir, are you okay?”
Anant with tears in eyes and with a fake smile, “Yes, I look okay.”
Anant went to interrogate Bharat.
Anant: “Why did you do this to me?, You were like my brother.”

Aryan: “Mr. Bhardwaj, You just have solved a mystery.”
Anant: “Yes, then?”

At RAW headquarter
Anant gave some files to Aryan, and started talking to him about some other interest. Suddenly, Shreya came to Anant’s cabin and said, “It’s national holiday, Sir.”
“Yes, I know but what are you doing here?”
“I can’t live without thrill and thrill comes from my work, so I’m here.”
“On holiday too?”
“Yes, on holiday too.”
“Mr. Bhardwaj, Who knew that you were going to catch Abees on that day.” Aryan asked.
“Mr. Iyer…..”, Anant replied with big shocked eyes.
“You are right kid.”, Anant said.
“What?, What’s going on?”, Shreya asked.
“Seriously, How did you get a job here?”, Aryan asked to Shreya.
“Shreya, all the crew knew that we are going to attack after two days but only Mr. Iyer knew that we are going to attack that day. So, who was helping Abees?” Anant Said.
“So, Who was helping Abees?”, Shreya again asked.
“Ma’am, I still have doubt.”, Aryan put some sarcasm.
Iyer and Abees entered Anant’s cabin with gun, “Brilliant kid, you are amazing but unfortunate, you all have to die.”, Abees said.
“You fool Anant, you couldn’t figure it out that I put cameras in your cabin.” Iyer said.
Iyer pointed gun to Anant and said, “First you die my son.”
As Iyer said a word Aryan jumped on Iyer and doing so he got himself shot but succeed in snatching the gun, he threw that gun to Anant and Anant soon picked the gun and shot Iyer and Abees.

Aryan was shot, Anant took him to hospital, Doctors were performing operation, then suddenly a Doctor came outside and said, “We’re doing our best but we don’t have blood for kid.”
“What do you mean doctor?”, Anant asked.
“He needs O negative blood group.”
“I can give him blood, mine is O negative.”, Anant said.
Doctor performed some test and took blood and saved Aryan’s life.
“Where is Mr. Iyer?”, Aryan asked.
“Don’t worry Aryan, He is dead and Abees is a dead man too.” Anant replied.
“This time you didn’t call me a kid.”
“Now, you are not a kid.”
Doctor called Anant to his cabin
Doctor: “Mr. Bhardwaj we performed some tests on you and Aryan, and reports are shocking.”
Anant: “What doctor? What do you mean?”
Doctor: “Your DNA matches and there are many things which says you are related by blood which means he is your son.”
Anant: “Are you kidding me?, It can’t happen. How is this possible?”
Doctor: “Reports don’t lie, take a look.”

Anant: “Are you hiding something?”
Cheena: “Now what can I hide?”
Anant: “C’mon Cheena, tell me were you pregnant that time?”
Cheena remained silent.
Anant: “What? You are silent. Did you give birth to that kid?”
Cheena was still silent.
Anant: “Please Cheena say something.”
Cheena: “Yes, I left him to your orphanage with giving him a name Aryan.”
Anant: “What did you do Cheena? What did you..”
Cheena: “Sorry”
Anant: “Sorry wouldn’t work now, Darling. You know what one day I came to your place to surprise you when you were in Lucknow, that day I found you on bed with Bharat. I didn’t say anything that day I just left because I wanted you to tell me everything. You played with my feelings, you played with me. I just want to ask you, Do you have a heart?”
Cheena was sobbing.
Anant went outside the prison where Shreya and Aryan was waiting for him near to a car.
Shreya: “Sir, when all this was started, I thought you are an emotionless, feeling less and grouch, but you are a good person. You are a man with mask, you wear a mask of rudeness.”
Anant: “Do you love me Shreya?”
Shreya: “Is sun hot?”
Anant: “What an obvious question?”
Shreya: “That’s it sir, What an obvious question.”
Aryan interrupted them, “Now I understood how did you get this job, Mother.”
Anant: “Mother?, we are not married yet.”
Aryan: “Off course father, but you will.”
One more trio formed but this time they became family. They became a Happy Family.
