She is alive

Next day-

The team is in Punjab owing to the same case. The culprit who fled off to Punjab is caught by that evening and the case is solved. Ayush roams through the familiar streets of Faridkot that evening flanked by Kevin and Naveen.

Ayush- "We left this place 5 years ago and I came to Mumbai for my training and my family followed me. (Closing his eyes and smiling) This place, this air and these memories, I can't forget them."

Ayush speaks his heart out about the place that's so dear to him as the others listen intently.

"How much time we left sir for flight take off?" Kavin asks.

"Nearly 2-3 hours..." Naveen answers him.

"Sir! Please sir, let's go for shopping or else my wife will scold me..."

Krishna begins to drag Naveen away.

Sir then you guys go for shopping. We will meet you hear after an hour, ok sir?"

Kavin waves them bye and turns to Ayush.

"Come with me, Ayush!"

"Where?"

"First come…"

They reach pensioner's office, Faridkot.

Ayush (confusingly)-"Pensioner office? We completed our work in Punjab know..."

Kavin(smilingly)- "yes…you wait here..."

5 min later

Kavin comes back and both get into an auto. They read the old police quarters.

Ayush(confusingly)- "What work we have in police quarters -"

Kavin (faking anger)-"Shut! shut your mouth! I found that Akash Kumar's best friend lives here... come let's talk with him..."

Kavin gives a knowing smile while Ayush fidgets.

Kavin-"You are my friend! And what are you thinking? You thought I won't find anything about your sadness without you telling?"

Ayush keeps mum and tears start rolling in his eyes and Kavin said- "You really know? Their family members were officially died in an accident... but their dead bodies were not found..."

Ayush (feels tensed)- "Please stop it... please don't raise new hopes. And don't play with the wounds that are not healed-"

Kavin- " Man, I am doing all this for you only... and this Sardarji is a good friend of Akash Kumar. Now only it will tell whether he died or not..."

Kavin knocks on the door bell. While Ayush stands there tensed.

Is there any hope? Chance that Billi is alive?

Ayush- "Kevin, I … I am getting tensed..."

Kavin- "Don't be that much tensed Ayush!"

Ayush bites his nails his brow forming a frown. Kevin just laughs.

Kavin- "relax everything will be good..."

Sardar ji (in Hindi 'ji' is added after a name to show respect) opens the door…and asks,

"Who are you?"

Kavin- "Sir we came from CBI, Mumbai… you know anything about Akash kumar"

Sardar ji-"Which Akash..."

Ayush- "See Kevin, come, let's go-"

Kavin- "Let me talk Ayush! Excuse me sir… It is very important for us to know that Mr. Akash Kumar who belonged to two-town here some 10-11 years ago. Will they really die?"

Sardar ji- " Oh I remembered yes some five years ago …"

Kavin (with some hope)- " Mr Akash is your best friend, isn't it? "

Sardar ji- " yes… but why are you asking…"

Ayush- " See Kevin? got peace..."

Kavin- "You stop it Ayush! Sir! Akash Kumar ji and his family mean a lot to my friend. Entire Punjab is convinced that Akash Kumar ji is no more. (With determination) We want to prove it wrong… but if this news turns out to be wrong, (with hope) then you can erase the pain from my friend's heart for life..."

The sardar ji eyes both Ayush and Kevin and keeps mum.

Kavin- "See sir... he is my friend Ayush Roy... Samrat Roy's son-"

Ayush(angrily)- "Enough Kavin Let's go!"

Ayush is about to drag away Kevin with a sad expression on his face when Sardar ji speaks-

"Are you Samrat's son? Oh, son it's been so many years. Everyone in the department knows your father. Maybe you don't recognize me…"

The old man hugs Ayush and Kevin smiles and asks,

"Sir, if you know anything please tell us..."

Sardar ji- " The accident happened son! A conspiracy was hatched to kill him. That day he was happy to come back to Punjab… There was happiness in Village... But an old enemy Bobby made him his target…He survived that day, but he was afraid that it would not happen again, so he secretly left with his family."

Kavin smiles at this while Ayush gets emotional.

Ayush (surprisingly)- "Means they are alive right?"

Sardar ji- "100% son

Happy tears form in his eyes at what just heard.

Ayush- "wow thank you sir! I mean Akash ji have a daughter know…is she fine?"

Sardar ji (smilingly)- " Absolutely live! What has to happen to her…but I don't know how she is now…because it's been five years.

Ayush- "You know anything where they went, which place anything?"

Sardar ji- "sorry son! Akash ji don't want be in contact with anyone…"

Kavin thanks the retired sardar ji and turns to Ayush.

Kavin- " come on man! It came to know that your Billi is alive…are you happy now? hello?" (Waves his hand in front of Ayush's face)

Suddenly he's engulfed in a huge hug… Ayush lifts Kevin up and twirls him for a bit...

Kavin (surprisingly and happily)- "hahaaha! Let me down! You became crazy with happiness…"

Ayush- "Thanks Kevin! Thank you so much."

Kavin (winking)- "anything for you buddy!"

Ayush (with happy tears)- "thank god Billi is alive Kevin. But where is she now?"

Kavin- "oh please!... don't be sad about it again… If it's yours or not, you'll definitely find it... I'm sure… Come on now I also have to do some shopping…hey smile ".

*Tickles Ayush*

Ayush (laughing)- " Hey, now I am happy brother.. Don't try too much to make me happy. Let's take a tour of Punjab then…"

The two friends leave with happiness shining in their eyes.
