The girl was still holding me in her hand while all the three of them moved to the end of the road. I struggled to peep through her fingers to check what was going on outside.
There was a brown big bike near which, the khakhi fellow stood, with one leg on its foot rest. He had some papers on the front seat of the bike and waved to both these women to get near the bike.
“What’s the matter?” splitting saliva on the road, he asked the women.
“Inspector sir….” When the girl started he showed his hand towards her and said in a brisk voice, “I am constable” and now looking at the crowd around he shouted “get away, don’t you guys have any work?”
“Constable Sir….” the girl continued “This kid….the kid the lady has is not hers; they are a gang......,people who kidnap the kids from their parents and ……and sell them….rent them….” Before the finished, the other woman started crying again.
“No sir……it is my kid…..this young girl has gone mad, she is trying to separate my baby from me” she shouted again……..”No one is there to save me and my child……our life is so miserable…..” she continued to cry….and I wasn’t able to hear what she was saying.
“Stop it” said the constable. “What’s your name?” he asked the girl. She kept me and other papers on the bike seat and pulled her card from her bag and showed it to the constable.
“Listen madam, if there is any issue, go to the police station, complain it to the writer and the Police will take action on it, why are you taking the law in your hands, why are you creating public nuisance?”
All these time, when the constable was shouting, she was typing something in her mobile and once he finished,
“I am ready to come to any station, take this lady we will go now itself” she said and by this time, the dirty lady started crying loudly.
“Sir, please leave me and my baby alone, I don’t want anything….please leave us….don’t believe this girl…..she seems to be some mental...leave us please......” and when she finished, a bike stopped near us.
Hey, it was the same guy, whom I left in the cinema hall. Now I understood, what she was typing in her mobile. He pushed the girl aside and they were talking something.
I was still lying below a bunch of papers on the bike's seat.
“Hey Mr……come here” said the constable.
He kept his finger on the girls lips and said not to talk anything and came back near the Constable and continued, “ Hello sir, I am a student….. i am her friend...he he….you see….nothing…there has been a small misunderstanding…..she is okay now….I will take care of her....……You leave it.”
“No, no misunderstanding” the girl said, the guy turned to her now “I asked you to stay silent” he said….. stopping him the girl said “No need, constable take us to the police station we will give her police treatement and she will spill truth” and when she finished there was more crowd around us and somewhere far away from us I was able to hear sounds of siren.
“Okay, okay….stop all these now, assistant commissioner is leaving, let him go and we shall talk” he pushed all the three of them aside and went to the center of the crowd to clear them from road.
“Let’s go, come soon” the young boy looked at the girl and dragged her from that place.
“Leave me, I will show this bitch, who I am” she was shouting, but couldn’t withstand the boy’s power. He pulled her towards his bike and made her sit behind him and rode the bike away.
The Dirty lady was still standing beside the Police bike and now her hands were over me, she almost picked me up from the bike’s seat when a Police van drove near us. She left me on the seat again and started moving away from the bike.
Another person in Khakhi dress jumped out of the front seat. His body was more fit than the constable, behind him there were two ladies.
One of them was, young, fair, in red chudidhar. Wiping her eyes again with her hand kerchief, she pushed the other lady in front of her. Other lady was older, stout, and black and with not so neatly dressed up walked up near our bike.
The black lady pointed her finger towards the dirty beggar near the bike and seeing that the beggar with the baby in her hand started running away from this bike.
4 other policemen including the constable with on whose bike, I was sitting, surrounded the beggar and pulled her towards the police Van…………….. to be continued.
