August 29, 2022:
Office was silent today!
it was never like this. Yes it was professional Investigation Department office, but it was always filled with duo conversions, jokes. Sam - Shambu fights for food, games. Shambu teasing Sam and vise verse. Everyone together, solving cases. Kiran was great with technology which helped team so that nothing is left in tracking, recording to find culprit. Vyom learning chasing culprits until they are caught.
Office was filled with Confessions of culprits Kunal's slap stamp on criminal faces, ACP Ashwin dialogues, Dhruv sharpness, Tarun knowledge about the small details. Avani being the responsible hardworking cop for chasing and finding evidence. Vikram being there with his share of bravery to jump any dangerous situation to solve and reach the other end of the story.
But what happened suddenly which changed everything?
The Investigation Department Ark Ville City office was not a office for this all people. It was actully a home for them where their family use to stay. ACP Ashwin, Kunal,Dhruv,Vikram ,Tarun,Vyom,Shambu,Sam,Avani,Kiran,Ishika along with Dr. Anu, Dr. Sekhar in the extended family.
The family of Investigation Department where all use to share happiness sorrow complains.
Jokes and finding clues were essential part of this family. Yes they were not connected by blood but were connected by heart.
A place where sharp minds use to catch culprits, find clues where all use to tease n crack jokes on dcp but...but today it was different the smile from all the faces had disappeared.

Dr. Sekhar, Dr.Anu were sad n were not able to believe of all reports what they got after testing blood samples from the evidence which they got only doc but also no one were ready to accept what reports were was stating.
ACP Ashwin was sitting on chair like a lifeless body, saluke was beside him sitting like he was crushing himself for being a doc where he himself must find that his son is alive or not n the truth was he is no more.
Shambu- Sam lost their smile, laugh n there was only tears in their eyes Tarun,Kiran, Vikram and Vyom were not able to believe what they heard just now. They got the biggest shock of the life.

FLASHBACK:-
28 DEC 2021...SUNDAY MORNING...
A fresh morning...A new change, a new day...New year new life New Beginning of something unique is awaiting.
Last two day left for the year 2021 to end but what was going on was something no one thought about...
A beautiful dream was planning along in background with the Story Main & Female lead which was imagined by their dear friend Dhruv.
There is A round big bed with a white softy, fluffy bedsheet. It had a shiny shinny bedcover, few velvety soft pillows, Avani is sleeping exact in between the bed with a velvety heart shape pillow on her oneside,sweet, cute white color furry teddy on her other side. Avani is sleeping with a sweet smile,innocence,chubby face, cuteness was clearly seen on her face...she was in a white churidar(Indian outfit) Her transparent dupatta openly lying on her chest gave a perfect look to her slim body. Her eyes were close her eye lids had a little slight eyeshadow.. her ears having tiny white stone studded earrings...her hairs lying straight on her beside pillow...her half body till her waist covered with a chocolate cover round bed had down decoration bedcover, bed was surrounded from top with transparent white sheet on both was sleeping a pure n sweet and tension free sleep.
Suddenly a sound of voices start entering in Avani's ears through her brain. Hearing this Avani feels wired in her sleep as she quickly wakes up and start moving the same direction of the noise.
She looks around to find the direction from where the sound was Coming as her face fills up with tensed emotions. She quickly gets down of the bed rushing out of the room as she goes on running throughout the house. Throughout the garden, road and finally she stops in a field in-between the plants which had yellow color flowers which added more beauty to the nature. She was breathing heavily because of running as she sits on her knees with her head totally down closing her eyes. Her whole hairs fall frontside after a couple of minutes as she lifts her head with wide open eyes looking a bird infront of her with a locket around its neck which Kunal gifted her as he proposed her while she gets stunned to see to find Kunal standing at distance looking at her smiling.
He was talk, well build body and innocent smile which represent his heart which was filled with love for their loved ones. He was wearing a white t-shirt n a black thick,shinny jeans within the field between the plants Avani looks at him as Kunal stretches his hand calling Avani in a hug looking at his actions she smiles broadly with running towards him with a tight hug as both of them feel the wamth of eachother and feel of squeezing each other for more tight hugs hearing the fast heartbeats of one another.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kunal:(talking to himself while entering room of senior inspector of I.D (INVESTIGATION DEPARTMENT) Oh no, he is still sleeping while mummering in his dam sleep. (thinking something looks at the person on bed)I have to find a way to send him out otherwise it will be difficult for me to go to the place where I have reach by hook or crook.
Kunal saw the guy who was sleeping shouting in his dream but there was a satisfaction on his face with a beautiful smile by which it can be guessed that he is dreaming about nothing but someone special and this special ones dream is signified by his smile on his other person who opened the door smiled as Kunal is well aware about the guy dreams as he was just so happy to see him smiling, soon he jerk his head as he walks upto guy still sleeping by sitting beside him pulling blanket to wake him up.
Kunal:What the hell! Whom are you calling so desperately. (he try to remove the blanket as the other guy pulls it back) Dhruv comeon Bro, just get up now its been already late..
Dhruv sleep was disturbed as he opens his eyes to find nothing but his bed and Kunal alone infront of him. Kunal looks at him puzzled while Dhruv rubs his eyes still yawning and feeling sad that he again dream about Kunal – Avani where as the reality is something else.
Dhruv(mummering to himself):Ohh god, again the same god damn dream when will you be so great to make it true?(desperately looking at the ceiling of his home)When will this moment will come?? Whene??
Kunal looks at him confusingly as Dhruv again pulls his blacket from Kunal hand with lying down on bed covering himself from it with shouting at Kunal.
Dhruv:Bro, today is Sunday atleast let me sleep and have clingy drams about Anu. Please let me enjoy my life.
Kunal made a naughty face then he thought about something as his face expressions changes to serious one while he stare at Dhruv covered in blanket while he pulls it back which irritates Dhruv.
Kunal: boss,(which he calls Dhruv due to their long friendship)You have to meet Dr. Anu today, did that thought skipped you mind?
Dhruv:(took his head out of blanket, look at Kunal)What?When was this plan made?
Kunal:(bang on his forehead)You are the best officer yet you forget small personal things?
Dhruv:(confused)What does that mean?(Kunal glare him so that he remembers but it irritates Dhruv)Uff Kunal don't you dare give me those looks, I am not a culprit who will be scared by those looks and confess my guilt which I did not do.
Kunal:(laughs making wired face)Boss, you were the one who shared with me about this exclusive meeting of you with Dr.Anu. (glaring at him)You still don't remember? (Dhruv still make face as Kunal make face with giving heavy sigh)Fine, I will help you recollect. Today is the day when you are going to confess about your love to Anu so that you would be celebrating the coming new year with her in full new relationship excitement.
Kunal happily narrates as Dhruv remember them having the convo but something clicks his mind as he looks at Kunal with a pity emotions sad eyes.
Dhruv:Brother, I remember very well. But dude do you recollect the condition which we agredd on? (Kunal was confuse as Dhruv cont.)This was just not only for me but for you as well. We both decide that Both of will confess our feeling to girls we like and start new year in new relationship status.. Did you….

Dhruv walks up to Kunal to console him.
Dhruv: Kunal, my intension wasn't to hurt you.
Kunal: (Turns to Dhruv)Dhruv Me and Avani are over before we started anything. She is happy with Sid, she is his fiancé so lets forget about that and not talk about old thing.

Speak up boss and tell your feelings. That set. Ok? (Dhruv nodes giving up on his best friends attempts )11 O'clock you have to reach zuoi café.
Dhruv: (shocked )11...?why so early.
