Anubhav had to leave for the Headquarters. Also, he insisted to drop Ammi home on his way. While all others were still busy talking with Haseena about things.

"vaise Karishma Ji... hum to poochna bhool gaye k aapke sar par ye chot kaise lagi?" Pushpa Singh asked and KarEena exchanged a look.

"Pushpa ji... aapki pyaari bahurani seedhiyon se gir gayi thi!!!" said Haseena glaring at Karishma.

"Lekin kyun? girne ki kya zarurat thi...??" Pushpa Ji asked.

"nai humko maza aata hai pushpa ji girne mein... nai matlb ye kis tarah ka sawaal hai?? matlb ek to hum gire aur humko lag gaya itni zor se aur ek acchi saas hone ke naate haal chal poochne ka jagah ye pooch rahi hain ki hum kyu gire!!" She yelled.

"nahi to kya karein... aakhon ke saamne bass inka gussa rehta hai toh aur kuch kaise dikhaai dega inko... chal rahi hongi top ka gola banke... khud par hi bhaari pad gaya..." Pushpa Singh taunted and they chuckled.

"ama aapko... aapko bada dikhta hai pushpa ji... itna hi hai to pichle mahine jo aapka paer phisla tha vo ka tha??" Karishma said

"vo kisi dayan chudail ki bad-dua ka asar tha..." Pushpa ji said

"kisi dayan chudail ke paas itna waqt bhi nahi hai barbaad karne ke liye... jo aapko bad-dua deti rahegi..." Karishma teased her.

Standing at a corner, Haseena was smiling looking at the sight. Today, she was not at all irritated with this saas-bahu fight but she was enjoying it and adoring them. They were fighting over random things after a long span of time. Cheetah and Santosh were smiling too, looking at this rare sight which they'd lost long ago and now they were back as their Maddam Sir was back.

"Lekin pushpa ji... aap chudail aur dayan toh Karishma madam ko bolti hain na!" Santosh added and Cheetah gave a pity look to her.

"nai hume sab pata hai... lekin ye shayad bhool rahi hain ki hum inki senior hain... Pushpa Ji aisi jagah transfer karenge na jaha golgappa par pratiband hoga... phir aapka jo ye phoola hua muh hai na pichak jayega..." Karishma said and they all laughed.

While they were continuing their fight, Haseena asked cheetah..."billu kahan hai??"

"maddam sir u bilauta toh apni mausi ke ghar gaya hai... uski behen hai na bilauti uski shaadi fix ho gayi hai kisi chamgadar se..." he told and at the same time, they heard a voice from the door.

"Billu The Spy is back!!" said Billu entering inside with a big box in his hand and the first person he noticed was Haseena. "maddam sirrrrrrrrr!!!" he shouted and ran towards her throwing his box at the entrance. He stood in front of her and tears welled up in his eyes. Haseena smiled looking at him.

"billu The spy... kaise ho??" she asked...

"maddam sir... kya surprise hai... aap... aap pata hai... boht miss kia maine aapko... aaj na mai bilauti ko leke mandir gaya tha aur vaha par maine bhagwan se kaha ki aapko jaldi se vapas le aayein aur dekhiye... dekhiye aap.. aa gayi... aaj toh jashn hoga..." he shouted in excitement.

"haan jashn toh banta hai...aakhir hume itne waqt ke baad apni family mili hai... aaj aap sab hamare ghar aaiyega dinner ke liye..." said Haseena.

"Yayyyyy... maza aayega... ammi ke haath ka khana..." said Santosh excitedly.

"Lekin hamara toh night duty hai na maddam sir... hum Kaise..." Cheetah said worriedly.

"arre night duty hum kar lenge... tum sab jaao..." Karishma said

"lekin Karishma Singh..."

"maddam sir hum toh vaise b boht waqt bita chuke hain aapke saath Delhi mein... aaj aap in sab ke saath dinner kijiye aur vaise bhi hum itne din se yaha nahi the na toh pata nahi in logo ne kya kiya hoga... toh hume sab check karna padega..." She said. Haseena gave a weak smile and nodded. She sensed something wrong with her but thought otherwise.

After the duty hours, they all came to Haseena's place for dinner. They talked for hours, releasing their stress and longing for their maddam sir.

Here, Karishma was doing a marathon near her desk. "kya karein hum... kya karein aisa k maddam sir khud hume khud se door kar dein..."

After the dinner at Haseena's, Billu returned back to his lockup. He saw Karishma in an extremely restless state. "Karishma madam... kya Hua?" he asked out of concern and she looked at him. "Bille... tumne hamara boht saath diya... aur aage bhi doge na...." She asked.

"haan madam... boht saath diya hai maine aapka... un cheezon mein bhi jaha par nahi dena chahiye tha... agar mai aapko rok paata toh aapki haalat ye na hoti..." he said in a serious tone.

"is baare mein kisi ko bhi nahi pata chalna chahiye bille... varna tum hamara bhaukal dekhoge..." she said

"madam aap dikha dijiye mujhe apna bhaukal... magar ab main aapko aur aise nahi dekh sakta hoon... main kal hi Haseena madam ko sab bata dunga..." he said going inside his cell.

"bille...bille suno..."

"kya sunoo mai madam? ab to Haseena madam aa gayi hain na... toh ab aapko iski kya zarurat hai...?" he almost yelled at her.

"Zaroorat hai bille... zaroorat hai!!!... khair hume abhi iske baare mein koi baat nahi karna hai... tumhari madad chahiye hai ek aakhiri baar..."

"nahi karni hai mujhe aapki madad... aakhein dekhi hain aapne apni... ekdum laal hain...kitni baar aapki haalat hadd se zyada bigdi hai aur kitni baar main aapko hospital leke gaya hoon...agar Haseena madam ko is baare mein pata chala toh aap jaanti bhi hain kya anjaam hoga ..."

"ama tumse gyaan nahi maanga hai humne... madad chahiye hai tumhari... karoge toh thik hai varna nikal lo hamari aakhon ke saamne se..." She shouted at him. Billu was in tears looking at her condition. He wasn't able to guess the reason now because the person she was dying for is now in front of her. He finally agreed to help her or else she would give herself more pain.

"boliye madam kya kar sakta hoon mai..." he said with tearful eyes.

"hume yahan se door jaana hai... boht door..." she said. Billu was shocked listening to her. Had she gone mad? Earlier she was dying for Haseena and now when she is with her, she wanted to leave her. Why?

"par kyun madam? aapko kyun jaana hai? aapko ek ek pal Haseena madam ke liye tadapte dekha hai... unhe ek baar gale se lagane ke liye tadapte dekha hai... unki tasveer ke saath ghanto baatein karte huye dekha hai... rote huye dekha hai aur jis vajah se aapne apni ye haalat kar di hai..." he said

"kyuki hum unke saath nahi reh sakte hain... tum hamara baat samjhne ka koshish karo billa... hum jab tak unke saath rahenge unki jaan ko khatra hota rahega... hum unse itni door jaana chahte hain ki hamari parchhai bhi un tak na pahuche..."

"lekin aisa kisne kaha madam aapse...aur aap... unki jaan ko khatra... mai kuch samjh nahi paa raha hoon..."

"tum topa ho ka... yaad hai... vo din jab hamara kidnap hua tha?" billu nodded and she continued, "us din ham apne informer se mil kar seedha headquarters jaa rahe the...aur hume kidnap kar liya gya... tumko pata hai kisne karwaya tha hamara kidnap..???"

"aapka vo dushman jiska milawat ka dhandha aapne band karwa diya tha..." he said.

"aisa kanoon ko lagta hai... jiska naam un kidnappers ne liya tha vo asli mastermind nahi tha... hamara kidnap karwaya tha Daniel ne...!!!!" billu was shocked.

"Daniel... mat..matlb vahi jisne maddam sir ko......"

"haan vahi..."

"lekin uski aapse kya dushmani thi??"

"Haseena madam ko kamzor karne ke liye usne hame kidnap karwaya tha... pehle toh hame lagta tha ki hamari galti ki vajah se Haseena humse door ho gayi lekin... lekin ab hume pata chala ki galti hamari nahi hain... hum khud hi maddam sir ki zindagi ki sabse badi galti hain... hamara unki zindagi mein aana ek bad luck hai.... hamesha hamari vajah se unki jaan ko khatra rehta hai...lekin ab hum aisa nahi chahte hain... hum chahte hain ki Haseena hamesha khush rahe aur hamari family bhi... aur jiske liye hum door jaana hi hoga..." She burst out into tears.

"madam ye sab kya bol rahi hain aap...aap aise kaise hume chhod kar jaa sakti hain... aur agar aapki jagah koi aur bhi hota toh maddam sir vahi karti jo unhone kia... isme aapki galti nahi hai... khud ko blame mat kijiye..."

"nahi bille... baitho hum tumhe shuruwat se sab samjhaate hain...." she said and billu sat in front of her unwillingly."yaad hai ek baar jab thane mein goli chala tha hamare oopar?? tab Haseena madam investigation ke liye charbagh wale us ghar mein gayi thi... aur vo ghar blast ho gaya tha...agar ek minute bhi der ho jaati toh hum kho dete unko.... vo hamare liye tha lekin khatra kiske oopar aaya??.... maddam sir!!!!"

"lekin madam..."

"aage suno... mission jeet... Dutta ne do goliyaan chalayi thi... maddam sir ne humko dhakka de diya aur dono hi goliyaan unhe lag gayi... vo bullets hamare liye thi lekin khatra kiske oopar aaya??... maddam sir!!!!"

"aur...yaad hai jab ek aadmi hamare naam par maddam sir ko blackmail kar raha tha?? sab... sab unke khilaaf ho gaye the lekin unhone kisi ko kuch bhi nahi bataya... sabki nafrat akele seh li... lekin hamare oopar ek aanch nahi aane di... kyu?? kyuki hum.... Karishma Singh... unki... kamzori.... hain!!!"

"Chandanpur mein jo aag lagi thi... yaad hai tumko?? us killer ka nishana kaun tha? hum the!!!... lekin hume bachane ke liye maddam sir aag mein kood gayi... vo aag hamare liye thi... usme jalna kisko chahiye tha?? humko!! lekin khatra kiske oopar aaya?? maddam sir!!!!!"

Billu was silently listening to her. Somewhere, he too was agreed with her.

"aur phir vo mission Daniel... vaha par bhi humne unhe nahi chhoda... aur is baar toh unka saansein lagbhag ruk hi gaya tha agar vo Delhi wali family ne unki jaan nahi bachaai hoti toh... aaj vo hamare saamne nahi hoti...kyu billu kyu...!!!!!! ab tum kehna chahoge kuch?? kya ye sach nahi ki hum unki jaan ke dushman hain... jab tak hum unke saath hain unhe kamzor karte rahenge... agar hamari jagah tum hote toh kya chale nahi jaate yaha se boht door..??." she asked in cracking voice

"madam..." billu said between his sobs..."Haseena madam boht pyaar karti hain aapse... vo nai reh payengi aapke bina!"

"baat ye nahi hai ki vo reh payengi ya nahi baat ye hai ki vo atleast safe to rahengi... aur ab humne tumhe sab kuch bata diya aur chahte hain ki tum hamari madad karo...!"

"mai aapki madad karne ke liye ready hoon lekin meri ek shart hai!!!""ka shart hai??""aapko ye chhodna hoga... ab dobara aap ise nahi lengi!" he said strictly

"ama hum bhi nahi chahte hain... lekin humse ho nahi raha hai... lekin... lekin hum koshish karenge..." She assured.

"Thik hai boliye mujhe kya karna hai!..." He said and Karishma smiled weekly. She was losing her senses and her eyes were blood-red. She somehow managed to tell Billu about her plan and went unconscious keeping her head on her desk. Billu was crying about her plight. How much his Karishma madam had gone through all alone, he knows the most of that but still, a lot was hidden from him too. When he saw Haseena he thought, that was the end of Karishma's pain and now he would get his bhaukal Karishma madam back. But he was wrong. Everything was again gonna destroyed. When Haseena was back, Karishma wanted to go. Why their lives are so complicated? Why can't they stay together forever? Why can't they be happy? Why a lot of pain is written after a little happiness? Haseena doesn't have the slightest idea about Karishma's mental state and what she did in these eight months. Yet she was feeling restless and wasn't able to sleep the whole night.

She decided to go to the Thana early in the morning and thought to spend some time with her Karishma. She got ready and prepared the breakfast for both of them and left for the thana.

Billu heard the sound of Haseena's jeep and tried to wake Karishma.
