The game of chase

                                    

                                          

The very next day she went to the park where he jogged every morning. 
HM: aree Anubhav ji rukiye kitna tez bhagenghe app aur kitna bhagenghe app? Kabi hum bhagte hai kabi app bhagte hai tak nahi jate kya? Hum toh tak gaye ruk jate hai na 
Holding his hand stopping him making him look at her 
HM: jante hai humne jo kiya woh galat kiya hume please maaf kar dijea hume shayad uss raat ko apse baat kar leni chahiye thi par kya karte hum itna gabra gaye the hume kuch samaj hi nahi aya upar se apki amma ne kaha ki hum kabi bhi kam nahi kar sakte toh hum gabra gaye. Sach kehte hai Anu hum apse tab bhi pyar karte the aur ab bhi behsumar prem karte hai apse.  
AS holding her shoulders looking into her eyes: ek baar toh app humse baat karti HJ! Hum ne apse kaha tha na hum apka sath denghe toh kyu nahi kiya humara barosa HJ kyu! Apke liye hum apne parivar toh kya khud se ladte. ek baar app humse yeh baat bolke toh dekti. jaan hai app humari toh apko dukh kaise pauchate? Ab hume nafrat ho gayi hai vivah aur prem naam ke shabd se uss din ke baad jo humne aur humare parivar ne saha hai na woh hum phir kabi sehna nahi chate hai. Toh humpe ek aisan kijea aur humara picha karna chod dijea.  
HM: Anu 
AS: Anubhav sir apke naye DSP hai toh tameez aur daire mein rahe app 
HM: iss baar apko nahi jane denghe Anu aur jo hua woh kabi nahi hoga  
AS: Anubhav Sir 
Saying so he left warning her. After that she tried many things to meet him and to try to break the wall he created with his ego. Even today was like that she came to the bar he was at and sits beside him. 
HM: not fair Anu apne toh kaha tha hum dono sath piyenghe par app toh humare bina hi shuru hogaye! Rukeye ab yeh Rum hai na? 
Gulping down his drink and makes a sour face shaking her head 
HM: sorry haan ladies first hota hai na waise kuch hua hi nahi 
Ordering another drink gulping them down one after the other while AS looked at her shocked 
HM hugs his arm giggling: ab kuch ho raha hai patidev 
AS just silently starred at her while she gulped a few more and started drunk blabbering to him about everything and anything. 
HM smiles looking at his lips: Anu kya hum apko kiss kar sakte hai?  
AS: ghar jane ka waqt hogaya hai HJ chaliye 
HM: apke ghar ya humare ghar? Waise toh jaha apka ghar hai woh ab humara ghar hai. 
AS lifts her up taking her to the car making their home while she leaned on the window looking out at the sky. He lifted her up in her arms and took her in her house placing her on the bed while she held his collar pulling him in bed with her. She placed her head on his chest listening to his heartbeat. 
HM: pata hai apko awkward feel ho raha hai par hum comfortable hai aur hume sukoon mil raha hai 
AS sighs as he too felt the sukoon she was referring to. But his ego still stood strong preventing him from giving in to her actions. He just held her close till she fell asleep and left straight after she was in deep sleep. Next morning she woke up with a headache but also a smile when she saw herself safe in her house. He indeed was a gentleman and how stupid she was to leave him alone at the alter that night if only she had spoken to him, she would have been waking in his arms living a happy beautiful life. She sighed and got dressed for thana and went to work she replied to everyone's Jai Hind and went straight to her cabin without indulging in any unnecessary chatter. To say she was hurt by her team's actions would be an understatement besides her brother no one believed her. HM focused on her work when their newly appointed DSP aka AS came to thana. The thana that was once known for their baketi was now silent as they drowned in guilt for not trusting their senior who trusted them and saved their thana on multiple occasions. He greeted them and was greeted back with the same greeting but with a dull voice.
