STOP . THIS IS WRONG NAINA STOP YOURSELF  

I broke out of my trance and found myself standing alone in gunny's room . It was just a flashback . Although nothing actually happened that day because I stooped it in time but never the less it did do the damage it was meant to do . It's strange how a moment can change your life forever . I have experienced quite a few in my short life span . 

That moment when I had stopped gunny might as well be one of that moments , I just didn't know it at that time . I heard footsteps , I turned back and found Alekh lokking at me . before he could say  anything I said " Janti hoon na meri koi galti thi na unki . Par Alekh agr us din maine gunny ko roka na hota aur unki dil ko na thoda hota to wo yahan nahi ate na , to maine kuch to galt kiya hi na ?? I looked at him for answers I knew he didn't have . 

He said jabse captain sir gaen hain tabse tum unke jaise kam krne lagi ho naina ." I looked at him puzzled " Are ab tum har cheez ke liye khud ko zimeedar manti ho, unki tarah kissi aor ki galti ke liye khud guilt mehsoos krti ho tu hui na Captain sir wali baat . "

I frowned at him .

Alekh : " Dekh naina jo hua usme na teri koi galti thi aur na ki gunny sir ki . Tumhe kabhi kissi aur se pyar nahi hoga iska matlab koi tumse pyar nahi kar skta . tum baht achi ho naina sabse alag , To yeh to hona hi tha . Agar gunny ko nahi hota to kissi aur ko hota hai . Tumhi to hamesha kehti ai ho ki pyaar pe kissi ka zoor nahi hota , woh bas ho jata hai kab aur kaise kuch pta nahi chalta. "

Naina: " Haan woh to sahi hai alekh  par ." He cut be inbetween . 

Alekh: " Haan to bas par war kuch nahi us baat ko 2 sal ho chuke uske baad bhi gunny tumse kitni baar milen hai sab hamesha sahi raha , tumhri wajah se kuch nahi hua , zada sochna band karo aur mere sath chalo ." He was about to drag me with him when i stopped him. He turned back .

Naina : " yeh kamra search kaun karega ? "

Now he frowned . We started again with the searching . While Alekh was searching the bed room I went inside to search the bathroom . I looked inside the flush and near the sink under it and in the cabinet as well but then I noticed something strange it was the shower head . It was so dry as if it hadn't been used in ages . I went ear it got a stool and tried to turn it and to my surprise it did . I called Alekh inside . He came and I finally found something . It looked like a micro memory card . 

We were filled with joy finally something , a lead or any thing that may in fact lead us to them or at least tell us which direction to go in . We walked as fast as we could towards the cotrol room and on the way told an orderly to tell Akriti Rummy and Nachiket sir to come there immediately . There we opened u a laptop and found a card reader inserted the card in the laptop , by this time everyone was present in the room . the memory card loaded on to the laptop and as I gussed it was password protected , because it was gunny it was easy to guess the password for me and Alekh . It was Viday , but what the hell opened up was a mystery . It looked as if the whole file was encrypted that too in a totally unrecognizible language . I looked at Alekh in disbelief . We knew what we had to do Alekh called yudi and transferd the contents of the file to him in the headquarters . 

It was nearly dinner time when we yudi called us back and told us to have dinner it might take time to decipher the files . I told Alekh to go ahead and told him to take chote papa with him. He obliged . It was just me and Akriti now waiting and we didn't realise when we fell asleep . It was around 1 a.m. when the laptop rang I woke up horrified . I saw Yudi calling on video conference I picked up the call.
