Epilogue
Jay Pov:
I was in room with Vidya and she looked a bit worried and I don't know the reason.
"Vidya, are you ok? Is something wrong with you?" I said.
"Jay, why are you sending all of us to your friend suddenly? Why can't you accompany us? I don't know but I am worried for you. Let us send our family but I will stay with you," Vidya said.
"Don't think much, Vidya. I have an audio recording for my new album. I will come to you people within a week," I said.
"I can understand if you lie to me," Vidya said.
"Vidya, you should go with them because only then I can focus on what I want to do. You have sacrificed our child for the nation. So now don't lose that quality in you," I said to Vidya and she agreeed to leave with them.
The next morning, they left to my friend's place. I went to Delhi and met the higher officer of Intelligence Bureau. I am working as a spy for India to crack the information of the terrorists who destroy the peace of India. The officer promised me to help me in finding out the real culprit behind the death of my sister and brother-in-law. I checked in a hotel at Delhi waiting for the information and I got the information that my sister and her husband talked to one of their friends before their disappearance.
I met their friend and asked about the matter and he revealed the shocking information to me. Now I understood the conspiracy behind their death. He told me that my sister saved the entire evidence in a memord card of the mobile and it was missing.
I went to the old flat of sister which was locked until now. I searched the entire house. I didn't get any clue. I didn't understand what to do. And suddenly my eyes fell on a doll which I gifted to my long back. I remembered doll having a speciality i.e., it looks like a doll but it has a secret folder in it to save the important documents. I immediately opened the doll as I know how to open it. I found the memory card and a few more photos in it. I got the evidence. I went off from there immediately.
The defence minister who should save our nation joined the hands with the terrorist groups passing the information of our defence wings to them. I collected the evidence but didn't understand to whom should I submit it. It's not just something that destroys the integrity and unity of the nation, but wavers the confidence of our citizens in the government. And I am also unsure that there would be any use to whomever I submit the information. What if they kills me and saves that minister? This is not about the safety of my life but related to the safety of my nation.
I closed my eyes and thought for a longtime. My sister's friend called me asking if I find anything and I said no. I didn't say this anything not even to my family. I sketched a plan to save my nation. When the nation is in danger, every citizen should become a soldier. I decided to solve this by myself.
I took a new simcard and called to the Defence Minister and informed him that there's a blacksheep in his team who is supporting the terrorists. I told him that I would give him the proofs if he meets me. I know he will meet me because that blacksheep is not anyone else but him. He agreed to meet me and I know he planned my death. So, I told him that another copy is with my friend who lives in the US. Now, he will meet me without trying to kill me. Negotiating is the only way for him right now.
He met me the next morning. He offered me the money to stop this. I didn't agree at first but when he offered the amount I never expected, I agreed to the money. He transferred the money to my bank account and I handedover the proofs to him. I returned to my family.
Vidya tried to ask me what had happened but I stayed quite. Vidya didn't say anything to me further. I don't know whether it's her trust in me or her suspicion that made her stay quite. Vidya's father called me and told that he didn't expect this from me. I understood that he knows everything. Still, Vidya stayed quite and she didn't ask anything to me. My mom and dad stopped talking to me as their son sold his patriotism and loyalty for money.
"Jay, we will leave to the US. I think that's better for now," Vidya said.
"What about your goal?" I said.
Vidya looked at me.
"We will be back soon. So I will pursue my dream," Vidya said and I didn't understand her words.
"My husband never sells his loyalty for money. I know that you will do anything to save the nation. I couldn't bear the words and expressions of our family suspecting you. We will back when your plan will be executed and then, we will return to India," Vidya said and I kissed her on the forehead.
"It doesn't have that much time." I said.
After two more days, the nation was in grief and it was declared as a national holiday as the Defence Minister was dead because of sudden heartstroke. My parents and Vidya's dad felt his karma followed him and my wife understood how did it happen. I want the safety of my nation but not the publicity or fame for saving the nation.
I have applied the slow poison on the memory card, photos and the CD that dissolves into the skin and contracts the heart killing the person after a week. I created a Trust with the money transferred by that Minister. Later on, through the dark web, I have released those proofs on the social media. Everyone in my family are happy thinking someone released the proofs. However, Vidya too didn't say anything to them, though she knows everything.
After three months, Vidya started preparing for the civil services and I resumed my singing. I helped Vidya to focus and prepare well for the exam. Soon, she won the hearts of my parents with her love and responsible nature. They too supported her. After one year, Vidya triumphed in the Civil Services Exam as the National topper and became the IAS. Vidya completed her training and this is her first day as the Joint Collector. Vidya came to me.
"Jay, bless me," Vidya said.
"You know well that I don't believe on these things," I said.
"Jay, you are always amazing. You are a wonder to me. You are perfect in every role both in family and profession. I wish I will be as sincere and loyal as you are in the profession. Bless me," Vidya said.
"God will bless you with the strength and power to give your best to the nation. All the best, sweetheart," I said.
Vidya joined in her duty. I kept an eye on the politicians too using the technology to save the nation. If the government finds this, I am sure I will be punished or killed, but as long as I am alive, I will do this.
Leap of five years:
I and Vidya adopted a baby girl before three years. Mom and dad treated her as their grandchild without any hatred for Vidya. Vidya became popular among the public. She is people's collector who does anything for solving their issues. And my mission is still going on along with my singing.
