Rajveer-Naina - The Mystery Begins!

Chapter 54

After sometime they all stand at a spot the proteges facing the cadets and Major Bhargava standing in front of them in the middle. "Subdar Suri" "Yes Sir!"replies Suriji, scared. "Aap yahan?""Main wo check karne aaya tha, kisi ko kisi cheez ki zarurat to nahi hai!" "Check kar lia?" "Yes Sir!""Dismiss!" Lolita Ma'am looks at him, scared. "Yes Sir!" Suriji leaves.

As he leaves, Major Bhargava says, "Mentorship programme ka ek hi udeshya hota hai, har cadet ke ander, apne senior, apne commander ke prati aadar ki bhawna jagana aur saath-saath commander ko apne cadet ko achi tarah pehchane ka mauka dena. But unfortunately aap sub ne iss exercise ko apne-apne dhang se liya. Isliye, iss progress ke first step ko yahin pe abode kia jata hai",as he declares this, Captain Rajveer stares at him, shocked.

"Main dekh raha hun ke mentor or protege ke beech mein bonding develop ho rahi hai".All the teams look at their partners."Lekin ye bonding itni nazuk hai ki , kisi teesre ke aatey hi disrupt ho jaati hai. Iska example aap dekh chuke hain. Iss dangerous exercise ke liye humne Dr. Mishra aur Cadet Alekh ko chuna tha, lekin Captain Rajveer ne beech mein aakar iss bonding ko disrupt karne ki koshish ki! Aur mujhey pura yakeen hai, ki inki koshish ke peechey aisa koi bhi ulterior motive nahi tha". Captain Rajveer and Cadet Naina look at each other. Captain Rajveer with creased brows and Cadet Naina, nervous on realizing that he is angry. She again senses the discomfort in Captain Rajveer's eyes, as Major Bhargava speaks to all, and blames Captain Rajveer."Agar Captain Mishra, Cadet Alekh ki help nahi karti, aur Captain Rajveer ko help karne se na rokti, to kya Cadet Alekh apni mentor ki itni respect karta?" asks Major Bhargava. At this Dr. Mishra stares at Captain Rajveer and Alekh stares at Naina. "No! Never!"says Major Bhargava.

At this Captain Rajveer breaks his silence, "Excuse me Sir, lekin mujhey lagta hai, humein ye dikhawa yahin rok dena chahiye"! All stare at Captain Rajveer. Major Bhargava walks to him and says,"dikhawa? Captain Rajveer aap to abhi se nervous lag rahe hain. Apki rules todne ki list to maine abhi tak kholi hi nahi". Naina gets restless and angry at listening to this."Exercise ke naam par kisi ko maut ke kagar mein dhakelna, kya ye rules hain Sir?""Teaching method pe main kisi se training nahi lunga, specially you Captain!""Aur training ke naam par kisi faculty, kisi Cadet ki zindagi ko khatre mein dalne ka ye khel, mujhey bhi bardasht nahi hai Sir. Aaj jo kuch bhi hua uske liye apko apologize karna chahiye Cadet Alekh se aur Dr. Mishra se. Kisi ko training karane ka ye koi tareeka nahi hai Sir!" bursts out Captain Rajveer in anger. "To konsa tareeka sahi hai Captain, apka?"asks Major Bhargava, "Jahan mentor, protegee aur protegee, mentor ki jaan bachata hai aur dono itne kareeb aa jate hain ki, ek dusre ke secrets tak chupane lagte hain".Naina and Rajveer gets shocked on hearing this. All others present there lower their eyes.

"Major Bhargava, aap apne hadd se bahar ja rahe hain!"warns Captain Rajveer. "Aur aap kab se apni hadd paar kar chukey hain Captain!"Naina looks at Major Bhargava, who is looking straight into Captain Rajveer's eyes, then lowers her eyes. "Ye batayenge, ki ab tak apne iss programme mein apni protege Cadet Naina ko kya sikhaya hai?"Captain Rajveer lowers his eyes and turns to look at his left side, unable to look at Major Bhargava's eyes. "Sharmayiye mat Captain, please... apni teaching methods aap humare saath bhi share karein".Captain Rajveer again glares at him, while Naina keeps her eyes lowered. All other pairs stare at each-other, not happy at witnessing everything that is going on. "One more favor Captain, agar apko kasht na ho to aap humein batayenge ki ab tak iss mentorship program mein apka aur apki protege ka 'relation' kitna strong hua? Kis level tak strong hua?" Major Bhargava focuses on the last two lines, emphasizing the word 'relation'. Naina glares at Major Bhargava, then she stares at Captain Rajveer, who looks at her and shakes his head indicating her to remain quiet."Well I am not blaming you, agar beautiful protege miley to aksar aisa hi hota hai". As Major Bhargava says this, it breaks all his self control and Captain Rajveer grabs Major Bhargava by his collar, "Major Bhargava". Naina looks at Captain Rajveer's angry face, worried. His actions make her to stare at him, tensed. On the other hand all other cadets also get worried about what might happen next, apart from Alekh, who waits for Captain Rajveer to take the first step and swears under his breath, that if required then he'll also join him!
