Sir, don’t we have any other way around, please help me sir, I want to meet shyam, I want shyam… sir please… please help me sir….
Well Vidhya, I can only think of two options to help you. One is to trace for the airlines contact number and then ask them to search for the flight and halt shyam from boarding the flight, but I guess it would be too difficult task as I don’t know which flight he is boarding nor I know any of the airlines numbers, so it would take much of time to get those details..
What’s the other one then?
Well, I can probably call police station and tell them there is a bomb placed in one of the flight leaving for Dubai, which would eventually delay the flight. Meanwhile we sorry you can reach the place and catch shyam.
Are you going to do that sir?
Well, do I look stupid Ms. Vidhya?
Sorry sir, but you are like my brother and I plead you to help me, you know our story, and I regret for my past acts and I want to repay for it…
Oh ok, okay, come with me, I probably have another way out to help you, but it would be my only weapon to get shyam, if it fails, don’t blame me okay?
Sir I have full faith in you…
That’s good, come with me.
Hi venkat, how you doing?
Am fine ambi? So how’s your marriage preparation going?
Well great, we would talk about it later, first do me a favour. Just check if you have Shyam name in your roster?
Give me a minute ….
Ambi, what are we trying to do?
Well Vidhya, our company offers free pick and drop facility and as others shyam too come by office cab only. If my guess is correct, he should have gone by office cab today too. If so we have a remote possibility of catching him.
But how can we contact him if he has already left the office?
See, we have a separate transport division working here 24*7, and all the cabs have a walkie-talkie kinda system in place, through which we try to trace the cabs and check the arrival / departure status daily at each stops….
So you mean if we can know the cab in which shyam left, we would trace the cab and talk to shyam?
Yes, if everything goes well…. First we need to find which cab he has left for, and try to establish a contact from there with that particular cab driver, talk to him and confirm if shyam still travels in that cab or already got down on his place…
Great Sir, I wish hard shyam is still in the cab…
I’m sure he would be... we still have little bit of time left, thanks to our Indian traffic.
Venkat, any news….
Yes I got it, Shyam Singh….right?
No, he is Indian, I mean South Indian, My god, I mean he belongs to Hindu, um... Brahmin….
Relax Vidhya, Venkat search for Shyam Sundar…
Okay Ambi, Shyam Sundar, Shyam Sundar, Um…. Yup, I got it too, getting down near Meenambakam today, Cab NO. 7467
Well done Venkat, can you quickly try to get in touch with the cab driver on his walkie-talkie and ask for shyam?
Give me few minutes ambi, let me try.
Calling asif, asif, calling asif, hello, hello!
Yes, venkat sir, tell me…
Ambi, we have got the link, Asif, do you have any one by name Shyam in your cab?
Shyam, um… well, yes I have Shyam sitting near me.
Wow great, get shyam on line, vidhya, come on, and talk to shyam.
Ambi, I guess we are doing something against our office policy; we can’t get an outsider here.
I know venkat, I will explain you later, this is something urgent and to me rules can wait if the work is more important and urgent... don’t worry, I will manage the consequences if any…
Shyam, vidhya here, shyam, shyam, can you hear me, shyam I’m very sorry shyam, shyam…
Hello, hello, I can’t hear you properly, who is that? This is shyam here.
Vidhya talk slowly; keep the walkie-talkie near your mouth, like this…
Ah okay ambi, shyam, can you hear me now, vidhya here, do you remember me vidhya, shyam, shyam…
Yes I can hear you, but I don’t get you, I don’t know any one by Vidhya…
What? Shyam, shyam, please forgive me, Shyam, Shyam… I am your Vidhya Shyam…
Mam, I am sorry but I really don’t know anyone by your name…
Ambi, what is he talking? Why is he not able to recognize me? Is he trying to take revenge on me for my early faults? Please do something ambi.
…. ….
I think the line got disconnected ambi.
Um… but I wonder why shyam couldn’t able to recognize you, he was still longing for you all these days vidhya.
That’s what even I can’t understand ambi, I know he is taking revenge on me, I accept my fault, but if he really loved me, he should have easily forgiven my past errors.
Vidhya, I don’t know about your love, but I am sure Shyam’s love is true, since I know him very well, venkat, are you sure you called the same cab which is traveling towards meenambakam?
Yes ambi, I am sure, it’s 7467.
Um …., then why he is hesitating to recognize Vidhya? God give me some clue… um…. Ah I got it! God is great. Call him back Venkat.
Ambi, don’t call him, I have lost, he no longer loves me, I had this fear earlier, he would have forgotten me by now, I don’t have any luck, my love is a failure… my love is a failure ambi…
Can you please remain silent for few minutes vidhya, no love is a failure, love is a feeling which everyone should experience, that’s the difference between you and shyam, within few minutes you termed your love as failure, but never did I heard the same from shyam, he never complained his love, he never cursed his love, he never thought he did a mistake even though u didn’t accept his love, he still rejoiced his love, he still worshipped his love…. Infact only because of his true love you have come here today and for the same love, I am helping you… Is that clear to you?, Venkat get him back man…
Calling asif, asif, calling asif, hello, hello!
Yes, venkat sir, tell me…
Give it here Venkat, Asif Ambi here…
Yes sir….
Where are you right now?
Sir I am driving towards meenambakam? I should reach there in 5 minutes by now.
Okay, how many people are there in your cab right now.
Sir, except me there are 3 staffs.
Fine, can you give me more details about them please?
Sir one male staff sitting near me, another male and female staff sitting at the back sir.
Okay great, can you get that another male staff on line?
Sir okay, Sir, sir… actually he is sleeping…and I am trying to wake him up… hello…
Wake him up man, wake him up tell he has got his love which he was waiting for all these days, His dream is here alive… wake him up soon...
What’s going on ambi?
Vidhya you know what, my guess was right, both shyam sundar and shyam singh were traveling on the same cab, and the guy with whom you spoke little while ago should be Shyam Singh, that’s why he couldn’t recognize you.
Hello, Shyam Sundar here, hello, can you hear me…
Ah there he goes.... Got it… vidhya see, here is your Shyam, now it’s your duty to keep him under your wraps for the rest of your life, go ahead…
Shyam… Shyam…. Vidhya here, your vidhya… Shyam can you hear me…
Driver stop the car, Vidhya. Vidhya… what a surprise….. Vidhya …..I am able to hear you Vidhya, what are you doing here? Do you still remember me? How are you vidhya? I was missing you a lot …
(tring, tring..)
Venkat, please let them talk for a while, I have got a US call, let me attend to it outside….. I’ll be back in a minute…
Hahaha.. Okay you better watch your words; I don’t think you would return in a minute… I know who the caller is!
Shut up Venkat, Get on to your work now…. yes Darling, how you doing? What did you had for your breakfast…?
….
Oh come one, this is not enough, you should take care of your health, Um… Okay, why didn’t you call me yesterday? I was waiting for your call all night you know…
……
