That day between the battle of rationality and irrationality, I succeeded in choosing right option , thus procuring freedom and valuable friendship of Vardhan and mine .
Without giving second thoughts I told every piece of information to Vardhan and that other guy who was present there. Tho other guy was ' trusted ' Aly of Vardhan though I felt the term trusted was just an exaggeration.
I told him everything about old couples and my imprisonment and the plan to charge with all acts . Vardhan and other guy was shocked but completely they both get calmed . The other guy 'SOMNATH ' told the only thing that can save is a full proof plan .
He told that do one thing let's keep this thing as how orignal plan is going and then we have to reverse it by actually proving that old couples exsist . To prove that I will be looking for the sources of the people who have seen them in village. Even 7-8 will be a good amount of evidence and to give it strong edge we will look for the driver who brought them here and present him .
Finding a driver won't be a easy thing and that too at such a short time. He might be anywhere in Manpada but thanks to my life I have seen him often in Zaveri village our hope will be to find him . Somnath seems good in sketching. He drew the Sketch of him and handed over the Vardhan . Rather that feeling of a fear , sadness or pitty that guy was having a fire in his eye as he is setting out for adventure to find the driver . I was really astonished by him and even by Somnath .
We had other backups incase driver won't be convinced than first we will give him a offer he can't say no and still if he refuses than we will threaten him to submit at royal Kingdom as a companion of old couples.
While getting out of the house , Vardhan called me he saw my teary eye . He kept his hand on my right shoulder and told Ar.... I stopped him with messing my name again.. He laughed but immediately told no matter what circumstances are , I will save you.
I replied with a happy heart , " I know you will ." Maybe trusting this person won't hurt that much . I left the Vardhan's house with the man waiting outside of me told him that plan worked well and returned at Badrinath's house .
Finally, the time came where we were taken infront of officials from villages and even people from royal Kingdom. Vardhan was presented at front where he argued that it was all old couples doing . To prove them he signalled to Somnath to bring the proof and Somnath actually brought 18 people at front . Even I was surprised with this number 18 . That's huge , I wonder whether old couples ever met this amount of people.
They all agreed and said that anonymous source of letter are indeed forwarded by old couples and how they often saw them and threatened them with explosives and if they didn't accept and also if we report then we are done thus creating fear in mind . And after their own views the final Gambit of our plan we saw driver was called out by Somnath and he stood in front of everyone .
I am sure luck was at ourside we not only found driver, but also convinced him and after this much evidence we would be succeeding to prove ourselves innocent . The driver agreed that he is the one who always took old couples and their belongings at different different villages. They gave me a huge money for this . I collected letters and other materials from dockyard and when it was dark in night I use to deliver it to them .
Aftab realised that why old couples were always up even as good as at 5 in morning. I am connecting the dots . He added they found this boy coming that way and they decided to bring with them and also told to stay with them till he managed some living at this Ashutosh village. So practically, this boy is not connected to them and I have never heard or seen any topic regarding this other guy 'Vardhan ' .
As expected the final decision went in our favour and the Badrinath's face went red with the anger . From some reason he was constantly looking towards Somnath as if Understanding he is involved in this . I wonder whether Badri knows Som .
This matter will be reported to royal Kingdom and also Badrinath was given warning for improper conduction of research. Also he was told as a compensation you will be paying up the expense of Dhumaketu's loss and his medical expenditure.
The final decision went on like Aftab and Vardhan are free from all charges and that are two old persons who are responsible. We will catch them at earliest. We also appologise to village members for tolerating this nuisance. The matter was resolved and we were set free .
I met with Vardhan after this , I can spot Roy , Riece and Vaishnavi and other guys of Vardhan's friend group . I couldn't find Somnath anywhere .
Vardhan came to me , So friend we are saved what are you going to do next . Again going to deliver letters . And we both laughed. I told maybe it's time to spent time with my new friends of this village and especially with special one . ' Special ' one ha ... who it is ? He asked .
I told , it's you Vardhan you , it's you dumb , it's you . We both hugged each other and saw no one's eyes objecting it all others were happy indicating my approval in the group .
And at that time he told , Aftab we will spent our live with new adventure, new problem and new comeback everything together now . I realised he finally called my name right exactly at 1000th time . Even if this handsome punk would have given me some new name I wouldn't have minded that time . I was thus offical member of their friend group as Riece , Roy and Vaishnavi also came and we all hugged each other. Ofcourse I was caution with Vaishnavi. Last time she was determined to disrupt my family planning .
She again raised her knees in attempt to kick balls but she stopped in halfway . If you are burden for our friendship , I will kill you by myself. They all giggled to it . I told , I won't ... This my new hope, my new source of existence , Vardhan , and others made it simple to continue to live.
I thought one day , I will tell him even about my mother but as of now, I will start my new life , new days , with new friends .
' You bastard ' why you did that . ' Are you out of your mind ' this was our only chance to corner that ' Vardhan ' . I am sorry dad but I thought Saving Vardhan will clear my path towards Manikarna in more better way . Stop lusting for that women. I won't , I will make her my whore , my fuck doll. She is the reason I am here . Does ' Shanta ' like her . Mom doesn't dad , but I do that women is born to satisfy me but till Vardhan is there . I can't trap her . But rather than this I thought I have to make her believe I will save her son always and when she will completely trust me . I will remove Vardhan from my way and marry that whore only to tear her body ." You sure are monster , Somnath" ..... , " I am your son , Mr Badrinath" as they chatted while drinking.
( So, Readers this mark the end of Aftab's prologue. Thanks for reading and loving this story from next part we will continue with our story that was left at chapter 2 . Stay tuned.)
