FATED TO BE YOURS

CHAPTER 1- RIVALRY IN THE HEARTS

Not proofread.

The Mahila Police Thana, situated in Janpad Lucknow had been newly introduced to popularity because of it's style of serving justice to the citizens.

It just took a single video of a couple, appreciating the Thana team and a couple few hours to make the Thana famous.

It was all thanks to Haseena Mallik, the new SHO. The department had appointed her just on time, when the Thana was about to shutdown due to the lack of complaints and FIRs it was suffering from.

But Haseena Mallik played an UNO reverse within the first ten days she was appointed. The FIR register was filled with complaints and the team members stopped lazing around in the Thana.

But there was this one person who was still not happy after the improvement and the Thana getting two years of extension. Karishma Singh.

The SI hated her senior's ideology. How can she even serve justice to people with "emotions".

According to her, the past five cases she solved in a mere time of just a week could be solved even faster if she used some kicks and punches.

"Jai Hind, Maddam Sir," Karishma Singh said as she saluted and stomped her foot on the floor.

Haseena diverted her gaze from the computer screen and smiled as she looked at Karishma and greeted her back, "Jai Hind"

"Maddam Sir humne voh files headquarter mein submit kardi hain aur ab field duty keliye nikal rahe hain Cheeta se saath, aur koi kaam hoga toh bata dijiyega. Jai Hind," She said in a monotone and left.

Haseena Sighed, "kya karein hum inka".

She could always feel the hatred radiating from Karishma's body whenever she was around. She could feel the anger in her voice whenever she talked to her, but didn't exactly understand why?

Everytime she talked to her, she couldn't help but notice pain. Everytime she looked into her eyes, she couldn't help but notice the emptiness. She had many times saw her coming to Thana, with her shoulders down, as if dejected. During that time, when their eyes met, Haseena could feel her eyes piercing her soul. Whenever this happened Karishma would just look away and Haseena understood that it was her futile attempt to hide her teary red eyes.

-------

Around 5:00 pm.

It was all silent but then she suddenly heard Santosh Sharma shouting.

"Pushpa ji! Jaldi. TV on kijiye!"

What happened?

Haseena stood up and went outside. As soon as everyone saw her, they saluted.

"Yeh kis baat ka itna shor macha hua hain bahar?" Haseena asked in a stern tone.

She was a kind human who belived in emotions but work was work. She did not like anyone playing around or lazing around in the Thana and discipline was mandatory.

"Voh sorry maddam, lekin news mein Karishma ma-"

"Jaldi lagao news," Haseena said immediately when she heard Karishma's name.

Anything related to Karishma being telecasted on the news was not a good sign, it always affected tht Thana's reputation. The last she was telecasted on the news was when she had slapped a Neta and he created a big commotion about it. Haseena had to deal with many things; DSP sir, public and especially the so called Neta ji's threats.

"Karishma Singh ne ek baar phir se dikhaya apna bhaukal. Apne upar vaar leke bachayi ek masoom ki jaan," Haseena heard the reporter say.

On the screen, a recording was shown. Karishma was running behind a pickpocket who was holding a mobile in his hand and behind Karishma the owner of the mobile was following them.
