Chapter 1: SAMJUN MEET

                                    

                                          

6 years later 
In a dark room sat a man twirling his pen while focussing on a picture (guessed it right, it is Arjun staring at Sikandar's picture). He was sitting there with a burden about his past which hurt him beyond repair. 
                          
Arjun's P.O.V: 
                          
"Jis aadmi ne mere pyaar ko mere sabse karibi dost ko mujhse dur kiya usse toh mein zinda kisi bhi kimat pe nahin chodh sakta. Lekin ab jab mere ussi dost ne mujhe tera pata bataya hai apne department se or apne ussulon se gaddari karke mein tab bhi tujhe dhund nahin paa raha hoon."(Irritated and angry)
                          
"Teri kismat achi hai jo ab tak tu mere haath nahin laga. Lekin meri kismat bhi utni buri nahin hai ki main tujhe tere anjaam tak na pahuncha sakun. Kahin toh hoga tu!!"
                          
P.O.V ends
                          
He sees his emergency mobile flashing and he picks it up without seeing.
                          
The man on other side of the call asks him "Kaisa hai Rawate?"
                          
To which Arjun replies "Kya lagta hai Rathode?"
                          
To which Rathode huffs and says "Uska pata nahin lekin agar tu gusse main nahin hai toh mere paas ek information hai jo mein tumhe dena chahta hoon."
                          
Rathode was his long lost friend because of Sikandar and now he is the same person who is helping him against the system and the department to get revenge. 
                          
Arjun is now getting a bit irritated "Thik hai mein gusse main nahin hoon ab bata information kya hai?"
                          
Rathode realizes that but he cannot do anything as he knows his friend "Aise nahin milke batana hai kya pata information milne ke baad tu apne gusse ko control mein na rakh sake."
                          
Arjun controlling his anger asks "Rathode tu bata raha hai ya nahin."
                          
To which Rathode replies with a "Nahin!"
                          
Arjun is now angered and says "Damm it Rathode! Tu bata nahin sakta kya?"
                          
Rathode gives an explanation to this by saying "Nahin! Aur tu reason bhi ache se jaanta hai. Roshni ko toh kho diya hai maine lekin tumhe nahin kho sakta (smacking himself for sounding so senti) Toh milke hi bataunga. Yeh baat tum Samjhe Ya Samjhaun!"
                          
Both have a small smile on their faces as they had copied each other's dialogues. And they knew it.
                          
Arjun now realizes that he can't fight and even if he fights Rathode won't tell him anything. He says "Thik hai kal milte hai shaam 5 baje."
                          
Rathode says "Nahin 5 nahin raat ke 11 baje jab logon pe khatra kam ho."
                          
Arjun just feels like holding Rathode by his collar and giving him his SYS lesson but he can't because he knows that Rathode is always right about him and no one knows him better than his Sam urf Rathode.
                          
Arjun replies with a slight tone of disappointment "Thik hai" 
                          
Rathode gets surprised by Arjun's sudden change in tone and thinks "itni jaldi maan gaya, no SYS. Bhagwan kare kal bhi uska mood aisa hi ho." 
                          
Then he replies with "Thik hai."
                          
And they cut the call 
                          
Rathode's P.O.V: "Ab isko mein kal kya bataun kaise bataun aur batane ke baad handle kaise karun. Itna stress toh mujhe Commissioner sir ke saath meeting karne se pehle bhi nahin hua tha. Haan lekin woh zakhmi sher nahin thhe na. Lekin yeh."🤦🏻‍♂️
                          
....Flashback....
Rathode comes back to E.T.F office from his meeting in Delhi after 2 days. He sees everyone working quietly and then sees Arjun in the conference room keeping an eye on everyone. He knows the matter is tense and tries to control his smile as he knows what his teammates are going through
