Next Day

Author's pov

Uday Pratap was in his office sitting on his chair and eagerly waiting for someone. He was holding that nuptial chain and clutching it tightly. He was thinking about something deeply.

" Sumitra, from where you just appeared? Are you still alive? Don't worry. This time I will kill you perfectly so that you can never return," Uday Pratap mumbled rubbing his forehead.

Uday Pratap was startled by a sudden male voice," What's up, buddy?"

" Vikram, you pussy! Come inside," Uday Pratap laughed gesturing for the man to enter.

He went near Vikram and hugged him tightly. Vikram also hugged him back. After a few seconds, both broke the hug and Uday Pratap gestured for Vikram to sit on the nearby couch. Uday Pratap ordered his pion to bring coffee for them.

Vikram said chuckling," After becoming a home minister, your security had gotten tighter. They even checked my crotch. Bloody fuckers!"

Uday Pratap joined the laughter with Vikram.

He shook his head," You and your dialogues! After so many years I still miss our College days."

Vikram responded with a naughty smile," Yeah! Especially those nights when we used to have drugs and fuck sexy girls!"

They laughed out loud recalling their old days. They become nostalgic remembering those days.

" By the way, why did you call me last night? You said you have something important to discuss," Vikram asked curiously.

Uday Pratap's facial expression became serious," Yes. I need to tell you something." He asked sounding worried," Do you remember Sumitra Rayna?"

Vikram was taken aback by the mention of that name. He was astonished to hear this name after such a long time. That too from Uday Pratap's mouth.

" After so many years, why are you asking about her? She is dead as per as I remember. You are the one who burned her alive," Vikram reminded.

" Yeah, but let me show you something," Uday Pratap took out that nuptial chain from his pocket and showed it to Vikram. Then he narrated everything about that parcel and those photos.

There was no doubt that Vikram was shocked. A lot of questions started roaming inside his mind.

" How is it can possible? When she died I was also there. How can a dead person return?" Vikarm was confused.

Uday Pratap rubbed his forehead," That bitch is here to ruin everything for me."

" Even in the past she was adamant about ruining me," he added recalling the past incidents.

Flashback

Uday Pratap was a spoiled rich son of Sangram Pratap Singh. He was a political leader with mafia background. When Uday Pratap was reading in college he was very profligate. Rather than study, he was very interested in drugs, alcohol, parties and girls. He also committed many crimes but every time his father would save him. And all in of his crimes, his crime partner was his best friend Vikram Bohra. He was also another spoiled brat.

One day, Uday Pratap and Vikram went to a party where they met Sumitra Rayna. She was a b grade actress. She was very beautiful with a jolly-minded personality. Seeing her Uday Pratap become crazy after her. Though Sumitra was 3 years elder than Uday Pratap. Sumitra couldn't resist Uday Pratap's good looks and charms.

Uday Pratap didn't love her. He just lusted after her body. Sumitra gave him the condition that if he marries her then she will submit herself to him. And Uday Pratap was so blind in his lust that he agreed to her every condition. Uday Pratap and Sumitra were married secretly for almost 8 years. They had a son together whose name was Shuvam Rayna.

After completing college Uday Pratap joined politics beside his father. He was a rising politician at that time. On the other hand, Uday Pratap and Sumitra's relationship was breaking because Uday Pratap started taking his interest in Anjali. Uday Pratap was already bored with Sumitra and he never wanted to make Sumitra his wife officially. Sumitra was bothering Uday Pratap to accept her and her child in front of the whole society and his family. But, Uday Pratap ignored her every time.

Sumitra's patience fell apart one day. She threatened Uday Pratap that she will tell every truth in front of the media and will destroy Uday Pratap's political career. She also threatened that she will case a file against him about domestic violence.

If she does this then there will be a huge impact on Uday Pratap's character which will give a bad influence on Uday Pratap's political career. Thinking all this, Uday Pratap couldn't tolerate her anymore and decided to kill her. He killed her by burning her alive. He intended to burn her son also. Her son ran away after seeing his mother's murder.

Uday Pratap was so cruel that he sent his men to kill Shuvam a 7-year-old boy. After 2 days of Shuvam's escaping, Uday Pratap's men informed him that Shuvam was dead. Only one person knew about Uday Pratap's all crimes. And that was his friend Vikram Bohra)

Flashback ended.

" I don't think it's Sumitra. We saw her dying with our own eyes," Vikram said taking a sip from his coffee.

Uday Pratap snapped at Vikram," Then, who can it be? Except for you and me, no one knows about Sumitra and my relationship."

" I think it's your son. I mean Sumitra's son," Vikram gave Uday Pratap a wary look.

Uday Pratap narrowed his eyes," Her son is dead too. Don't you remember? I sent my men to kill that bastard."

Vikaram listened to Uday Pratap silently though he was busy calculating something in his mind. There was something fishy about Sumitra's son's murder.

" According to you, you killed Sumitra's son but you never saw that boy's dead body. Right?" Vikram raised an important question. Uday Pratap looked baffled by his words.

Vikram added," I don't why I am feeling that it was none other than Sumitra's son. Maybe he is here to avenge his mother's death."

Uday Pratap looked angry yet worried after hearing Vikram.

" You are a minister now. Why are you becoming so worried about such a petty matter? Order your men and they will drag that bastard in front of you. He can't hide for too long if you activate your informers," Vikram sounded chill but the thin line of anxiety from Uday Pratap's forehead didn't vanish yet.

Uday Pratap rubbed his forehead," I am worried about Rudra. If he comes to know the truth then he will hate me. I have brainwashed him saying that his mother is a characterless woman. She isn't loyal while it was the opposite. I can't lose Rudra's trust."

Vikram chuckled," What an irony! For one son you can do anything but for the other, you don't give any shit!"Uday Pratap rolled his eyes.

" Anyway, leave Rudra's topic. As you are the only person who knows everything about Sumitra & me, so I am giving you the responsibility to find out that bastard. After all, you are a CBI officer," Uday Pratap said while Vikram lit a cigarette.

Vikram answered sharing his cigarette with Uday Pratap," Anything for my old friend."

Rudra's pov

" Bhai, that phone call was from a shopkeeper's phone. I have checked that shopkeeper's background but found nothing important. The person who called you was very clever. He intentionally called from a random person's phone so that we can't trace his location," Akhil informed showing me the data he found.

I mumbled," Fuck that motherfucker." I kicked the nearby chair. It was my third attempt to find out that bastard but failed.

Who can be that bastard and why he called me brother? These questions were making me go crazy. I am suspecting Manoj. I am sure that something is cooking in his mind. He will not spare me so easily. I have seen his eyes when he was looking at my sunflower. That bastard's intention isn't good either. I am sure he will try to do something again. Before he does something, I have to do something about him.

But, the problem is I am still unaware of his actual location. That traitor is hiding like a rat. Bloody motherfucker! I am just pissed off about everything. Everything is going out of my control every day.

And, Dad's unusual behaviour? Yesterday, when I asked him am I the only son of him, he was startled for a few moments. I am sure he is hiding something. If I ask him he will not tell me anything for sure. Whom should I ask? He doesn't share his secrets with anyone.

Yesterday, he was behaving like he was hiding something from me. I wonder what he was hiding.

On the other hand, I am missing my sunflower a lot. I understand her feelings but what can I do about my feelings? How can I convince my desperate heart about her absence?

It's just one day of her in the hospital and I am already feeling like she has left me for decades. What have you done to me? Without her, I am nothing.

Since yesterday, I have called her and texted her uncountable times but every time she just ignored me. I wonder doesn't she miss me even a little bit? Why can't she understand that it was not my fault at all? I am not responsible for our baby's death.

" Bhai, we have found Manoj's whereabouts!! He is hiding in one of his farmhouses. We have traced his location," I was startled by Jay's sudden loud voice.

I yelled forwarding my legs," Then, what are we waiting for? Let's go.

Author's pov

Abhishek just bought Diya's medicine from a nearby shop and forwarded his legs to the hospital. He will just enter when he bumped into someone. His belongings fell from his hand. He looked at the person with an irritated expression. He found a tall masculine man standing there.

" Sorry. I didn't see you," The man apologized.

Abhishek didn't respond. He started collecting his belongings from the ground when he heard that person's words.

" Mr Abhishek Roy?"

Abhishek sounded surprised," Do I know you?"

" You don't know me but I know you very well. In fact, who doesn't know the honest ACP Abhishek Roy," The person smiled. Abhishek was amused by the man's words.

He let out a sad smile," I am not an ACP anymore. By the way, who are you?"

The person chuckled," Well, I am Dheeraj Rayna. I have something to discuss with you".
