Part
19
In
house of advocate Sarang while other households were preparing to
resign to bed in Sarang's bedroom sarang was strolling in a very
desparate mood. He appearec to have been ceased up by the idea that
it could be his turn to die and this thought had mad him terribly
uneasy. For the first time in life he felt fear for death. He was
repeatedly telling to the ghost of Hemant, presuming that, that ghost
of hemant is listening to him,
"Please
let me alone, I did not want to kill you; you may know that from your
powers that it was Bali and Khalia that they wanted to teach you a
lesson but I was only with them, you must remember that I was
pleading to help you and asked them that they do not hurt you but you
know that they did not listen to me". While pleading in this
manner he was repeatedly doing namaskar in air to somebody not
visible, it was to Hemant's spirit and this was happening repeatedly.
There was nobody in that room. In that sorry condition at last
Sarang goes to sleep. In sleep he gets a dream and in that he sees
Hemant looking to him. Hemant was appearing as if in a very
triumphant manner. Hemant was looking down to him as if he is at some
high level and Sarang is at some lower level. There Hemant tells him,
"If you help me in killing James, I will leave you alone and
will not kill you"! Sarang wakes up, he was profusely sweating,
he gets up and sees that it was a dream but believing in that he
feels some unusual pleasure that he had found a way to escape death!
If he helps in killing James Hemant will not kill him. That thought
made him very comfortable. Sarang gets up and looks around and sees
his wife
fast
asleep. He looks towards the door of his bedroom and there he feels
as if there is some person standing at the door. It was a very wispy
vision but surely there was somebody, Sarang was feeling sure that it
is a shadow of Hemant. Sarang assures to him that he shall help him
in killing James and in return he should be spared! On that assurance
wonderfully that faint vision of somebody gradually vanishes. Now
Sarang gets a feeling that makes him feel better. His one mind tells
him, "Well, you are going to kill your friend in exchange for
your own life. Are you sure this is a good deal?" Sarang's
second mind says, "I do not care what happens to James, so long
as I live that is the deal and I will do it"!
Next
day he gets up early morning he is in his best mood as he had got an
assurance that he is spared if he helps Hemant I killing James.
Sarang remembers the event when Hemant was killed by the group. He
clearly remembers how James was enjoying the fearful face of that
young Hemant. Sarang's mind reassured him that by all moral standards
his decision to help Hemant in killing James is justified. Now the
question was how to do it? Will Hemant tell him about it or he has to
do it by himself? Sarang was at loss in that matter. However, finally
Sarang decides that it is better that he takes up the initiative in
this matter to show Hemant that he is very serious in helping Hemant
in killing James. He decides to make a plan; but he wondered if
Hemant had another plan why should he make a plan to kill him?
Sarang
was soliloquizing, "I shall call James to my Lonawla bungalow,
he likes that place and often request to visit it. If will definitely
not reject the idea of going to stay for a week end". Sarang's
plan was to kill him in that bungalow and dump him in the deep valley
nearby. He wondered if Hemant's ghost accept that plan. However he
had no time to think on all those things and in a hurry picks up
phone and calls James. James receives that call and there Sarang
tells him that he is very much annoyed by this problem of Hemant and
to have some peace of mind he has decided to go to his Lonawla
bungalow, and he wants to know if he is interested in joining him.
James likes the idea as he was also equally disturbed about Hemant
affair. He tells him his shop is closed on Saturday and Sunday and so
if he makes the plan on these days it is suitable to him. James
suggests that they call Bali also to join him. Sarang tells him that
he can contact Bali and tell him the plan and if he agrees well and
then all the three can go to his bungalow next week. On contacting
Bali he comes to know that Bali is pretty busy on that week end in
his hotel and may not be able to attend that meet. On hearing this
Sarang actually feels good because he did not want to involve Bali in
that plan. He thanks Hemant and actually feels that Hemant is looking
to him and has approved the plan. James and Sarang finally decide
that they will be going to Lonawla bungalow this week end. This gives
Sarang a very unusual relief.
