(Ananya Rathore ki Entry)

[Scene 1: DSP Ananya Rathore ka Office - Dopahar ka waqt]

Kamre mein ek ajeeb sa sannata tha, sirf ek purane pankhe ki garm hawa aur files ke palatne ki awaaz thi. DSP Ananya Rathore apni kursi par baithi thi, unki aankhein file par thi par dimaag kahin aur. Unki uniform ki har crease (silvat) unke discipline ki gawaahi deti thi.

Tabhi unke cabin ka darwaza khula aur unke sabse purane Constable, Kaka, andar aaye.

Kaka: "Bitiya... saheb ka phone aaya tha. Unhone kaha hai ki aaj aapko har haal mein 5 baje ghar pahunchna hai. Wo 'Ranawats' aa rahe hain."

Ananya ne file band ki aur thandi saans bhari. Usne apni hatheli par bane ek purane nishaan ko dekha-ye nishaan usne tab paya tha jab usne apna pehla encounter kiya tha.

Ananya: "Kaka, kya Papa nahi samajhte? Shehar mein 'Khanna Syndicate' ki halchal badh rahi hai aur unhe meri shaadi ki chinta hai? Main ek mard ke liye apni duty nahi chhod sakti."

Kaka: (Muskurate hue) "Saheb jaante hain ki aap desh ki beti hain, par wo chahte hain ki koi aisa ho jo aapka thaka hua sar apne kandhe par rakh sake. Jaiye bitiya, aaj ke liye officer nahi, sirf beti ban jaiye."

[Scene 2: Rathore Niwas - Shaam ka waqt]

Ananya ne lavender rang ka ek simple suit pehna tha. Uski aankhon mein kajal toh tha, par un aankhon ki tezi nahi chhupi thi. Woh apne kamre ki khidki se bahar dekh rahi thi jab ek kaali chamchamati 'Rolls Royce' unke aangan mein ruki.

Gaadi se ek mard utra. Uski height, uska chalne ka andaaz, aur uske chehre ka garv... sab kuch chilla-chilla kar keh raha tha ki wo Rudransh Ranawat hai-wo businessman jisne London ke market ko hila kar rakh diya tha.

Ananya : "Toh ye hai wo 'Golden Boy'. Expensive suit, expensive car... ise kya pata ki mitti aur khoon ki kimat kya hoti hai. Ye mere saath ek hafta bhi nahi tik payega."

[Scene 3: Drawing Room - The Confrontation]

Dono parivaar baith kar baatein kar rahe the, par Ananya aur Rudransh ki nazrein ek-dusre par tiki thin. Rudransh ne dekha ki Ananya baki ladkiyon ki tarah 'shy' (sharma) nahi rahi thi, balki woh usey aise scan kar rahi thi jaise koi suspect ho.

Rudransh: "So, Ananya... maine suna hai aapne pichle mahine akele hi teen gundon ko dhool chatai thi? Not bad."

Ananya ne coffee ka sip liya aur sapaat (flat) awaaz mein boli.

Ananya: "Wo meri duty thi, Mr. Ranawat. Maine ye bhi suna hai ki aapne ek doobti hui company ko ek raat mein kharid kar hazaro logon ki naukri kha li. Business ya War? Dono mein zyada farq nahi hai."

Kamre mein sannata chha gaya. Sab log hairan the. Rudransh ke Papa ne kuch kehna chaha, par Rudransh ne haath utha kar unhe rok diya. Woh muskura raha tha.

Rudransh: "I like your honesty. Par shayad aap bhool rahi hain, maine un hazaro logon ki naukri khayi nahi, balki unhe ek behtar company mein nayi shuruat di. Hum dono 'Cleaning' hi karte hain... aap sadkon ki, main economy ki."

Ananya: "Farq ye hai ki meri cleaning mein goliyaan chalti hain. Kya aap taiyar hain ek aisi patni ke liye jo shayad suhaagrat par bhi kisi raid ke liye nikal jaye?"

Rudransh ne kursi par thoda aage jhuk kar seedha Ananya ki aankhon mein dekha.

Rudransh: "Ananya Rathore, mujhe 'ordinary' (sadharan) cheezein kabhi pasand nahi aayin. Agar meri patni khatarnak hai, toh mere liye wo 'Pride' (garv) ki baat hai. Main aapke raste ka patthar nahi, aapki dhaal banna chahta hoon."

Ananya ki palkein halki si jhuki. Ye pehla mard tha jisne uske 'Uniform' se darne ke bajaye usey 'Respect' di thi.

[Scene 4: The Twist - The Shadow in the Dark]

Meeting khatam hui aur Ranawats nikal gaye. Ananya apne garden mein walk kar rahi thi jab uska phone baja.

Ananya: "Haan, bolo?"

Officer (On Phone): "Mam! Khanna ke aadmiyon ne aapke ghar ki location trace kar li hai. Wo shayad abhi wahi hain. Be careful!"

Ananya ne turant apni lavender kameez ke niche chhupaya hua gun nikaala. Usne garden ki jhadiyon mein ek sarsarahat suni.

Ananya: "Bahar nikal! Main jaanti hoon tu wahan hai!"

Andhere se ek shakhs bahar nikalne hi wala tha ki tabhi ek aur gaadi tezi se aayi aur us shakhs ko takkar maar di. Gaadi se Rudransh baahar nikla, uske haath mein ek baseball bat tha.

Rudransh: "Maine gaadi ke sheeshe se usey dekh liya tha. Aapne kaha tha na ki aapki cleaning mein goliyaan chalti hain? Mere yahan 'Direct Action' hota hai."

Ananya hairat se usey dekh rahi thi. Lavender suit mein woh DSP khadi thi, aur suit mein wo Businessman... par dono ki aankhon mein ek hi jhalak thi-Junoon.

Ananya: "Aap wapas kyun aaye?"

Rudransh: "Apni hone wali patni ka pehla 'Encounter' miss nahi karna chahta tha."
