This is my first story . Comments are welcome..
Chapter - 1
Hey Pooja , Get up. Its 4 already. You have to be ready in 2 hrs !!! my mom was not
screaming this time but a pleasant wake up.
Mom , its just 4. We have plenty of time for the marriage. I was groaning in the bed.
stupid!! Its your marriage.. Beauticians are waiting outside to start their work.Get up.
This time her voice was even more louder. I dont want to make this situation even more
worse so got up with a fake smile.
The beauticians where really waiting near my bed. How do they manage to be here at
early morning 4am with full make up on their faces??? To be frank I hate makeup. The
last time I had applied make up was during a school drama of my 7th grade. I was the
queen in that drama. King was some small kid who was shorter than me. The king
marries me at the end of the play . Now my real marriage is gonna happen with a guy
who is a complete stranger to me. Uffff!!
pooja!!! You still brushing your teeth??? Mom again.
I stopped all my haunting memories and tried to finish my pre makeup traditions as fast
as possible .The beautician gave me a cream to wash my face.
It will make your face glow during your BIG DAY the beautician said .Sorry she
blushed!! I felt a strong stinch of irritation in my stomach. To marry a guy whom you
have never met in your life ,hardly you know his second name , had spoke only once
with him is going to be your life partner in few hours!!! I couldnt understand why all
weird things happens with me always??
The bridal make up begun. Tamil , my younger brother was standing near by playing
video game seriously in my cell phone. Why guys always stick to the electrical items as
if whole world is nothing in front of that.I know he was playing the same boring football
game in the cell. Whenever he had time he used to play football in the ground or in my
mobile.
I was not expecting much from him. But still a plain wassup made me even more
inconvenient.
I think you have mistaken. Am the girl with whom you are gonna get engaged in 2
days I was slightly raised my voice.
I know. Tell me Pooja . I dont have enough time to talk in phone And some noices of
pages being turned was heard.
Ohhh he is showing he is busy! Even I dont want to talk with him. But fate!!
Raghav I just wanna talk to you in privacy. No in private. I mean its important. If u r
not busy??? damn , I was talking to him as if my appraisal was going on. Why am I so
humble in my speech??? Oh common Pooja. He is not your Team Leader. Have guts!!
come to the point .. he was like ordering . My TL is better than him . I thought.
Raghav I dont want to get married. I mean I hate marriage life . I dont want this
marriage to happen I spoke with the maximum possible guts .
even I dont want this marriage to happen. Say something new he was talking in a
hushed tone as if he is ready to cut my call. But whatever he is on my line . even he
doesnt wants to marry.
then why cant you stop this marriage ? I asked him.
How about I ask the same question to you ?? damn, he was very adamant. Male
Chauvinist. I was burning inside. Moreever my ISD bill!!!
See raghav ,I have tried all possible ways . but nothing worked. Thats why I had been
cornered to call you. I need your help to stop this marriage . so can you
cant find any new story.. ? any damn new story to impress me??? Why you girls act as
though you are very innocent in every aspect. you can never impress me like this Pooja.
Better luck next time and the call was cut.
I was frozen . Did I heard correctly ?? when did I tried to impress him. Whats wrong
with this guy ??? My mobile flashed call cost 397.89 . Waste of time and money.
Why Life gives us so many ways to handle a problem which makes us hard to choose
which is right. Normally wrong ways are damn attractive.
Stop it Pooja!!! Its Ringing attend or throw off your mobile!!! It was my conscience.
When our conscience gets irritated to its extreme it always gives us two choices to
conclude DO OR DIE.
The beauticians were making comments on me and I dont want to show my inner
irritation to them.
Could you please be outside for a while? I have gotta personal call me on my sweetest
voice. Normally when we do pretend to be happy the invisible sweetness of your voice
magically takes its control.
They left the place with a giggle. I cant understand whats damn funny happening here
for them to giggle.
So finally am gonna pick up the call and show him am not interested on him and am
very angry with his behavior.
Now my right thumb went to make a connection between me and him , I mean a phone
connection.
Missed call from Raghav 4:20 am.
Wtf!!! Finally when am about to attend the call it becomes a missed call. I have no time
left. Beauticians are waiting outside and before my mom comes back to my room and
resumes her scream I have to find out why he had called. I waited for a minute for him
to call me back. But waste!!!
If that Mr. Adamant , I mean Raghav has some reason to call me early morning on the
day of marriage cant he call back if not attended once?? Adamant!!! I was cursing him. I
dont want to call him back and lose my self-respect to him anymore.
Another half a minute !! Waste of waiting and I dialed his number. Again after 5
Loooooooonnnnnng rings he picked my call. God is 5 his lucky number or wat???
Hello ,Raghav here same plain voice which I have heard last time. As if I dont know
that it was Raghav whom I have called.
I know. Its Pooja here. Why did u called me??? I tried American accent . But I know it
finally sounded a typical Indian way.
So finally your dream has come true??? Marrying rich ,educated fellow in the world!!!
Huh???
Was he teasing me or praising himself. Well he wants to hurt me. Let me hurt him back.
Am sorry I guess you are not talking about yourself
Oh shut up Pooja. You think you have good sense of humor?? See I want this marriage
to be stopped. I cant even imagine to marry a girl like you.
GIRL LIKE U !!! what is he trying to say???
Before I could utter a word he continued his talk.
Look I give you two choices. Run away from the marriage or I will disclose your truth
in front of all. It would be a great shame to you and your family. And your filmy Mother
!! Dont say am the reason for her heart attack which she would dramatize in the public
if I let the truth out.
I was totally taken over. What the hell is he trying to tell . I had been calling him for 2
months to stop this fucking marriage. Now in the day of marriage after all the
arrangements have been made should be stopped . Is he nuts or what?? I was totally
occupied by my thoughts that I forgot to give a reply to him.
Helloare you deaf or dumb enough to melt my heart??? Nothing is gonna work
Pooja. You run away from the marriage or regret for rest of your life raghav in his firm
voice.
See Raghav I am not getting like what what you are trying to say. What truth are you
talking about??? It is really difficult to find words when you are in deep shock.
Truth??? You want me say the truth about you and your college life?? I guess you
remember Gautham
Gautham!!! Did he said Gautham ???
Gawtham ??. I want to make myself clear what was happening.
Ya Gowtham The guy whom you dumped to marry me. How you girls go on
dumping boys as though that is your birth right?? I want this f*****g marriage to
stopped. You got it ??? I give you 2 hours. Better leave the marriage hall or I ll disclose
all the photographs which you took with him. and the call was cut.
I was stunned for a while. I could sense nothing around me. He wants me to run away.
How does he know about Gautham???
Meanwhile I could sense someone opening the door. Guess it was Mom. But what I saw
was unbelievable!!
There it was Gautham standing with blue jeans and white shirt.
Gautham is alive ?????
I still remember this was the dress he was wearing when he was shot to death. Please
god tell me what am seeing is dream. Is this place haunted??
Gautham is alive!!!! But how??? If the rigor mortis, the decomposition of the human
body after death has worked properly only his bones and teeth would be left now . 3
long years. How could be he alive?? I was who informed his parents about his death.
How could this happen???
I could feel the world before me is shattered into pieces and I had no sense of
gravitational pull acting on me. I was getting unconscious.
Only 2 things were echoing in my mind.
Run in 2 hours or regret !!!
Gowtham is alive!!!!
To be continued..
5. Don't ask them what they're thinking about unless you are prepared to
discuss such topics as FOOTBALL, CRICKET, or TENNIS. Girls have many other
interests which is hard to discuss with boys.
Well the list goes on.
So to be on a safer side I actually avoided guys. Well most of the girls said my opinion
about boys is wrong and they added boys are actually sweet sometimes . Ufffffff!!!!
Well I avoided friendship with such gals and there was a person who was exactly like
me. My Best Friend Harini!!!
We had been in the same room in hostel for the past 2 years and we did share the same
bench in our classroom. We were like inseparable birds in our college. Neither did we
had the idea of talking with boys nor gave a pathway for the guys to flirt with us.
Every girl has her own dream of getting married. Some prefer Love marriage some
prefer arranged marriage and some prefer no marriage at all. I do not fall in either of the
above category. I do want to do Random Marriage.
Sounds weird??? Well I have a flash-back for this bizarre decision.
Vasudevan , my dad is my first best friend in the world. He married my mom Helen ,20
years ago and it was a perfect Love marriage that too inter-religion marriage.
My mom is an exact replica of the usual moms you find in serials. She will make things
happen just by weeping and quoting standard sentimental dialogues.
Fo dad , the dialogue goes on like this.
I know Vasu you have stopped loving me !!!
All men are the same. When I was young and beautiful you were ready to offer me
anything. Now I am old and you need a repair.
Is this what you show to the girl who left her family and relatives just for the man
whom she loved.
I should have listened to my parents. I have made a great blunder in my life by wedding
you
And when this dialogue is about to end supernatural tears would start its march from
her eyes and official cough at regular intervals. And the last target was packing some
clothes as if she is gonna leave us forever.
Poor daddy!!! He gets arrested at the end and finally mom obtains what she wished.
And she was even capable enough to influence me and Brother Tamil.
The only dialogue which she uttered to us was Is this the respect you give to your
mom for having you safe in my womb for 10 full months???? I risked my own life to give
life to you both. And I did forfeit my wishes to make you happy. Is this what you gift
your mom back?? And as usual tears next followed by cough and then the very same
bag package.
We three had gone fed up this behavior and it was always my mother who decides
everything in our family.
At times dad used to get irritated and argue in return which would pave way for a fight
for one month.
Well when parents do fight it the poor children gets affected. And I did started hating
Love marriage even from my age of 5 .
And arranged marriage chanceless !!! It would be my mother's choice if it is arranged
marriage.Her taste and mine are extremely different.No!!! I cant give the job of finding
my life partner to my parents .
So I preferred Random marriage. Its like having bunch of proposals before and make a
r
andom pick, he will my Life partner. I strongly believe In fate.
Today my dad was narrating his love story to me. I guess this is the 195th time am
hearing the same story!!! He was telling how he proposed to my mom , how she
removed her slippers and waved before my father and how finally she accepted his
love ,their register marriage. Its always nice to hear your parents love story.
Dad, Can I ask you something? I interrupted him.
Ya Pooja dear , do ask Dad sounded very enthusiastic to answer.
How did you know that you were in love?
hmmm.. well its a different feel Pooja. I used to see your mom from distance. Never
had the guts to approach her.I thought it was just affection. But later on I realized that I
couldnt restrict myself from seeing her. She was a lure amidst a crowd. And seeing her
photo I always had a feeling that she belongs to me. Its a man thing. Cant make you
understand well dad was blushing then.
but what made you to choose mom??? Was she so beautiful dad??
Ya she was beautiful .actually hot. He winked at me with a smile and continued
But more than that her character was unpredictable. I just an urge to find whats there
in this girl.
So dad, you risked your life to find whats hidden in a girls character. Huh????
Well Risk edukarathellam engalukku rusk saapdura maari
{Taking risk is like eating rusk for me}
And we both couldnt control our laugh. I never know that is going to be the last chat
with my dad .
Three days later I received a call , It was a call which is gonna put my life in hell.
Dad met with a major accident !!! It shattered our life into pieces.
I rushed to the hospital to see my dad. My mom was crying like hell and it was
impossible to console her. A series of 3 major operations was done on my dad.
After 16 hours of operation , the doctor called us to his cabin.
Mrs.Vasudevan. Am sorry to say this. We were able to save your husband but hardly
he could live for a month. His lungs has been tore apart by glass. And he lost one leg
too. Dont give him any tension. He will gain his conscious in 12 hours.I have .. the
doctor was going on speaking something and my mind was completely blank.
Is my dad gonna die in a month??? Hell no !! It Cant happen!!!
After 2 days my mom was permitted to meet my dad in ICU for 5 minutes.
When she came back the first words which she uttered was
Dad wants to see your marriage!!! And he wants you to marry Dr.Gautham
Marriage???? In a month???? And who is Dr.Gautham????
To be continued..
Well half an hour is there. I was badly in need of some fresh air. So I thought I would
take a walk in the hospital lawn. Evening breeze was very enchanting. I could feel my
heart getting lighter after a walk. I washed my face in the nearby tap, to hide my
dullness.
say its love. But still I could feel my heart skip a beat whenever I saw you. So I asked
your parents for a proposal. But I never imagined I would meet you in such a critical
situation. And he was looking deep into my eyes.
I always had a problem in seeing a person eye to eye and talk. And this guy had
something in his eyes. So I did kept my sight as far as possible from him.
See Gautham I cant think of marriage at this situation a firm voice of mine replied
him.
So shall I assume you have rejected my proposal?
NoNot exactly Its too fast for me I was swallowing my words.
It means a yes !!! he winked at me..
No ..Not really.. Please Goutham.. I need time to think.. mmmm.. shall I tell my answer
after 2 days
Why am I pleading to him???
So its an obvious yes. He was smiling.
How??? I never said yes..
well its girls psychology. When a girl hates a proposal she would refuse at the very first
time. If she asks time she obviously likes the boy. So love at first sight huh??? he was
looking at me so curiously.
Hey stop itDont assume things of your own.. I could feel my cheek getting red.
You look more beautiful when you blush..
I couldnt stand there more so I started to walk fast inside the hospital.
Hey Pooja.. Just a minute .. He caught hold of my hand.
Leave my hand .. People are watching I was restless.
Oh am sorry
I know he was really feeling sorry.
thats k .. what you want?
I need you ..i mean your number .. You could know me better in phone.. I have loads to
talk to you.. Can i??? his request was very humble to say No and we did exchange our
numbers.
I was waiting for his message/call ever since the second I gave him my number.
Well he never gave me a chance to wait
There was a message after a minute.
You looked really very gorgeous in this white salwar..
It is a pleasant feel to get such comments from a man whom you love.. Sorry even from
the man whom you like.
Mom was very curious to know my result . And she kept pestering me with questions.
do you like him??? What did he said?? Shall we arrange marriage by the end of this
month??
MomPlease give me a break .. I will let you know my decision after 2 days. But
please stop pestering me like this.
And the next two days were the most beautiful days in my life. We did discussed about
everything. I was always found with my phone.
Well our tastes were very different. But we started to admire each others tastes.
He was humorous. Exactly talkative like me.. Our discussions revolved around very
common topics.
He loved Football and was a fan of Manchester United Team. Though I have heard the
name for the first time, now I have gathered enough information about the team
prepared enough to answer a Quiz. Is this love???
I said I liked novels very much and was a fan of Dan Brown and Sydney Shelton and my
favorite novel was the Deception Point .
Next day got message from him at early morning 5 Really its a great book Pooja
which book ?? and I was still in sleep mode.
The deception Point.. And the climax was stunning!!!
You said you never read novels. But how??
Well Just want to know what has made my Pooja so addicted to that book
My Pooja!!! I couldnt take my eyes away from that message.
Dont say you completed the entire novel in one night :P
Ya I did
You are crazy Gautham
Yaa Crazy on you.. Hey can I say something???
hmmm ..
I love you.. love you a lot will you marry me??
I was frozen for a minute. A direct proposal!!! I was confused what to reply..
Hey.. It was message from Gautham ..
Reply something Goutham again
.. Can I tell you tomorrow ?
I never knew why did I put the smiley at the beginning of my message.
ya sure dia I ll be waiting for your reply..
I dont want to say no . Well , Proposing your love in Ooty would be even more
romantic..
Well I was ready for my first date..
We never knew it was going to be our last date.
.
What happened in Ooty???
To be continued..
.
Well, Everything was going fine. But still its human tendency to dither whenever you
have to take decisions.
A pessimist inside me was having its own argument Going with a man whom you
have known only for 2 days that too 500 kms far is not adequate. That too being an
Indian girl you have your own boundaries. Dont dare to cross it.
And the optimist was having its own point Saying no to a man whom you love and
who has helped you in a critical situation is inhuman And Gautham is a decent guy..
and he has assured you that you will be home at 8 PM
And it was pessimist turn now Are you mad Pooja.. How could you travel 560 kms and
come back at 8??
And optimist started to do its calculation 5.30 flight to Coimbatore. It takes one hour.
Coimbatore to Ooty if we take the highways you would be in Ooty in 2 and a half hours.
So finally 3 and a half hours for travel. I will be there at 10 at maximum.. can spend till 4
pm.. again can travel back.. hmmm.. even if it delays due to traffic I will be here by 10
maximum.. nothing wrong
Well it was the optimist who finally won.. Human mind has an affinity to judge
something weird as acceptable if we really desire it could happen. And now I was really
ready for my first date and I swore to myself that this is the final decision and I wont
ponder about it again.
That was in fact a very long night. Slept very late. Though Goutham didnt come in my
dreams It was a pleasant dream. First time in my life I got up at 3.30 AM and I was
surprised to see 4 missed calls from Gautham. I did called him back.
He picked up in the very first ring.
Hey.. good morning Dia.. Sorry I disturbed your sleep .. it was Gautham in his
sweetest voice.
Hey nothing like that.. am fine.. So you got up so early..
Actually I didnt sleep at all.. I was haunted by your memories.. And Its going to be our
first date. Am excited.. and the excitement was obvious in his voice..
mmmmm even am excited .. So when are you coming here??
I will be there at 4.30 .. we have to catch 5.15 Flight.
So he has thought 15 minutes ahead me..
Ya k.. I ll be ready.. seeya soon
gonna see my angel soon Bye
And I was ready even before 5 minutes. Gautham was on time. He was in blue jeans and
black T-shirt. He was staring at me as if He has undergone a shock. Am I looking so
bad..??
Hello Goutham. Are you k ?? I started waving my hand before his stunned face.
Again no reaction..
Hello goutham..What happened?? I patted his arms slowly.
Oh am sorry I was actually mesmerized.. You are gorgeous today.. So shall v
start???
ya sure..
please . He did opened the car and waved his hand to get inside and bowed gently..
Oh Goutham thanks I was really nervous ..This is the first time in my life someone
opening the car door for me that too with a bow..
And our ride started
Road was deserted at that time Goutham was driving the car very cautiously..
Thanks Pooja It was Gautham who broke our silence first..
Thanks for what?
For Trusting me.. and he stopped the car and looked into my eyes .. and he continued
I know it would have been difficult for you to decide to come with me or not.. You
didnt even question me why are we going there.. I really feel very proud that you trust
me so blindly. You know what trust is more powerful than Love.. thanks
no need to thank Goutham You have done lots for our family.. Its just
whatever it is Pooja.. am very happy today he smiled at me and started his car..
So what are we gonna do in Ooty?? I queried him
haan.. finally my girl has inquired me what we are gonna do in Ooty?? he did smiled..
Well there is something special in his smile..
Can you guess Pooja.. what are we gonna do there?? he winked at me..
What can I answer to this???
Am not sure.. May be we will have a ride.. Or a lunch.. Or.. Or Damn I really dont
know what are we gonna do there
Or romance??? Goutham giggled
what??? See Goutham.. This is not .. I felt restless..
hey Pooja.. dont panic.. just kidding.. do you remember Dr.Venkat specialist in lungs
treatment ..
Oh ya .. You said If he gives treatment to my father chances of saving my father is very
high..So
So.. we are gonna meet him.. He is on a vacation to Ooty with his family.. Since the
time left is very less I thought I would consult him and then make arrangements for the
operation. He was my college professor You know what Pooja.?? I was his favorite
Student.. when I said about my marriage with you he and his wife wants to meet you
badly.. So I thought I would bring you here and introduce you to them.. And we will be
having our lunch with Venkat and his wife..
but Gautham.. Lets wait for Venkat sir.. We have to show the medical records
Pooja lets leave He was frowning indeed..
Gautham But
I said Lets leave Goutham started to move outside the lobby..
sorry mam.. We ll come back soon.. Goutham is not feeling well I guess.. Sorry again I
started to go back Gautham
Why is Goutham so angry???
Why didnt he wait for the doctor to come??
And whats gonna happen in Ooty next???
To be continued
ha ha May be this act sounds filmy.. but it gives a good feel you know.. Try once..
You can never stop yourself from helping others and the same migrant smile of his..
By the time we reached a hotel and we had our breakfast cum lunch I did picked
some carrots and started to feed a starving horse which was standing near by.. It was
very skinny that you count the number of bones it has.
Feeling good ah? It was goutham behind me..
Believe me.. It works I was smiling back at him..
so shall we start Pooja.. Its 2 already.. In 2 hours Ooty would be fully covered with fog
and we could hardly travel then
Ya sure Gautham.. But these carrots
Dont worry.. You would find hundreds of animals on the way
It was the most beautiful ride in my life.. Gautham was humming some song and was
riding the car.. Whenever we did found some animals Gautham used to slow down the
car and I did placed some carrots before those animals.. It was indeed fun..
So Pooja.. when are going to propose your Love?? A Poor guy is waiting for it
Oh really??? I couldnt see any Poor guy over here I was falsely searching for people
around the car..
Hey Pooja.. am serious.. I thought you would propose soon and am waiting for that
special minute.. Please dont make me to wait much long..
Hey goutham ..See a buffalo is there.. stop the car.. Lets put some carrots
All girls are the same!!! I heard Goutham murmering
Goutham you asked something??
Nothing.. please go and feed the buffalo.. Its important he was frowning at me..
We reached Coonur after an hour..Coonur is a town nearby Ooty and it was famous for
its fruit festival. Gautham stopped the car near a hotel somewhere near the outskirts of
Coonur.
Hey Pooja.. Be in the car..I have an urgent work there
Is everything k Goutham ? I was indeed worried..
I want everything to be fine here.. Just 5 minutes k ..Its urgent
Now I perfectly understood what he meant
Ya please.. Carry on.. I was feeling difficult to hide my smile..
When he comes back I would propose to him.. But I have nothing to gift him.. Let me
get a rose for him.. but where can I find the rose??
To my relief I did found an old lady selling roses near by.. I got down the car and went
to buy that rose..
All of a sudden I felt someone pulling me back and was closing my mouth with a
kerchief.. Before I could speak a word I was dragged into some other car.. I could see 2
enormous men getting inside the car and the car started to move..
I was fighting back with them as my hands were free at that time and I did hit one of
that men. I did felt a strong needle being pierced into my skin
Am I being sedated????
Chalo we will be late to Mumbai Train I could heard some silent voices
Well , everything was dark after
Am I being kidnapped to Mumbai???
What happened to goutham???
Will my father be saved???
To be Continued.
Please Let me out I started to bang the door as many times as possible. But there no
response in return.. Having regained all the consciousness back I was feeling hungry.
There was a small mud pot near the window. Please god !! Let me find some water in it..
I hastily went near the mud pot and there was only a meager amount of water left in it.
There was a strong stench of alcohol in that pot . I thought I would better die than
drinking this water.
Please some one save me!!! Though I was not able to scream this time It was clear
enough for a person standing few yards away from me could sense it. With all energy
drained I crawled to that filthy bed and lied on it.. I was not able to stop my trickling
tears. That was the only company I had at that time.
After few minutes I sensed someone nearing the door and unlockingit. I quickly moved
near the chair and took a broken part of it as a weapon. If someone dares to come near
me I would beat him to hell with this What if the kidnapper has gun?? Well no time
for negative thoughts now.
I was standing in a position ready to hit anyone who comes before me. I was expecting
the same Gundas who has kidnapped me in Coonur. But to my surprise I saw a
beautiful woman in her early thirties standing before me with a plate in one hand and
glass in other.
You are a strong woman Pooja she walked towards me with a smile.
Dont dare to come near me.. I will .. I was feeling hard to breathe even.
You will Kill me ah?? But u need strength to hold your most powerful weapon.. she
chuckled . I know I was weak..
Sit down Pooja.. You have to face many monsters from now.. Have some food she was
looking at me with sympathy. Damn!! I hate people showing sympathy on me.
But I was too hungry for any emotions .but If this food is sedated ??? Its better to be
hungry than losing the conscious..
Believe me.. This food is safe.. I was staring at her which must have conveyed its
meaning that I dont trust her.
She had a bite of bread which she brought and did drank some water from the glass..
And when I tried to cover the parcel again with the newspaper I found a bit of paper
inside..
It had a crisp message in it.
Join our group wearing this at 9 AM tomorrow J
J for Javeed ?? But how can I join them.. 9 AM???
I turned the paper again to find if something was hidden Or something encrypted.. But
nothing was there except those lines.
I started to wait for the dawn.. May be I will get some clue in the morning..
The suns scorching rays were falling straight on my face.. I did wanted to move a little..
But a slight move would make that man to sedate me again.. So I did lie there
motionless baring the irritation caused by the rays.
The man came near me and waved his hands before me.. He did checked my pulse but I
dared not to move.
After few minutes the man locked the door and left out.. I sensed his strong footsteps
fading away .. This is the right time.. I got up quickly and wore that red t-shirt and red
mask..
I moved to the door but it was locked. How can I get out from here.. ?
The window !!!
I tore the dirty mosquito net.. There were 4 corroded iron grills arranged in an
horizontal fashion.. If I could remove 2 grills I could possibly crack out this room but
how ??
I glanced around the room once more.. there was nothing useful enough to remove the
iron grill
Searching for tool to escape?? I heard a males voice..
Oh god !! Am caught !! when I turned I saw a girl and a man in red t-shirt and mask..
Javee..
shhhhh..dont talk
He did loosened some screws present and carefully removed the whole window.
Come out fast!!!
After I came out he placed the window back in the same position..
Lets move.. It was the girl who rushed us in an anxious voice.
We did hurried downstairs.. It was a very old building.. And the footsteps were even
more dirtier than the room.. there were many small rooms . some had doors ,but most
of the rooms were covered with dithering curtains. When we went to the ground floor a
man stopped us..
I said right.. no girls will ever come down to listen your bore speech.. Go and do your
social service in some other place He gave us a sarcastic look..
It would be a short speech sir.. Then we will circulate our pamphlets and leave..
Please It was Javeed who was begging to him..
finish fast and vacate this place then the man was gone..
Javeed handed me some pamphlets..
have this Pooja.. Just circulate this whenever you see a girl and smile at them.. And be
with me k?
It was a short lane and there were many old buildings tightly packed.. Though it was
not crowded at that time I noticed some volunteers in red t-shirts having hoardings and
some with pamphlets and one of them was standing on a table and was offering speech
about venereal diseases.. Some girls were peeping from the windows and was listening.
Please god!! Let him finish the speech soon.. There was a rush of adrenaline inside me.. I
was in height of hallucination and felt as though everyone is noticing only me. It was
kind of social phobia inside me.
When the speech was over everyone applauded him
come with me It was a girl who pulled my hand
We went inside a van. She opened an empty cardboard box..
Get inside.. dont worryIts ventilated after I got in she placed a huge rack of
newspapers on me and closed the box.. Though it was suffocating inside I found some
holes which made the thin air to glide in..
All the other volunteers got into the van.. Someone was counting the people when they
entered the van.. So the people are being numbered before they let them inside..
19 totally.. you may go!!a rough male voice commanded and the van moved
Inside the van I was able to clearly hear their talk..
Miserable !! Most of the girls over here are less than 20 years. It was a soft male voice.
Ya Madhav.. Most of them are uneducated and they had been sold here at a very young
age It was a feminine voice.
Most of them dont even know how much they earn
We must do something to stop this
did you guys noticed?? Many were afraid to come down to listen our speech.. They are
watched severely by the rowdies
Cant we complain to the police??
thats impossible. They have a large circle. If they knew it was we who complained
they will kill us It was Javeed now.
k Guys.. Thanks for making this camp a great success. You can all get down here. Me
and Heema will leave the vehicle to the owner and go to our place. And the van
stopped.
I heard people getting down the van. The Van started to move again. Someone was
opening the box and removed all the newspapers on me..
come out Pooja
I finally felt over whelmed by the fresh air.
Heema you go with the driver.. I will take Pooja and leave her in a safe place
Ya k Javeed
Me and Javeed got down the Van. I was still wearing that mask.
You can remove the mask pooja
thanks Javeed.. You have saved my life. If you hadnt been there.. I was sobbing.
thats k .You should thank our leader. He informed us about you.. See you have to
leave this place immediately. They would had started searching the missing girls.
Missing girls You mean???
Ya totally we have rescued 10 girls today.. you come from Tamilnadu right?? A truck
carrying automobile parts is leaving in an hour to chennai. The owner is my uncle. I will
introduce you as my friend who has lost her bus.. You go with him.. It will be safe..
thanks Javeed.. And
what..??
can I make a call to my family.. they will be worried
ya sure.. and he handed me his mobile.
First I dialed my mothers phone.. It was switched off..
Then I tried gouthams number He did picked up in first ring..
Goutham.. Its pooja here
Pooja He was speechless for few second..
Goutham am fine..
Hey where are you??? I felt he was in haste to know where am I..
In Mumbai .. But am safe now.. Dont panic.. I will be in Chennai in 2 days.. A
gentleman has saved me
where are you in Mumbai?? goutham was shouting..
goutham am fine.. you
Just say where are you now.. the exact place.. am in Mumbai only
So Goutham has came till Mumbai to rescue me.. I felt thousands of butterflies flying
inside me..
excuse me.. Which place is this?? I asked Javeed..
Zaveri Bazaar
Its Zaveri Bazaar Goutham.. But how come..
I will be there in 5 mins.. and the call was cut..
boy friend ah??? Javeed was smiling at me..
Ya he is very sweet.. He has somehow found that I had been kidnapped to Mumbai..
and he will be here in 5 minutes
Is he a police??
No a doctor.. Our marriage is gonna happen in a month..
Wow.. congraulations.. So you dont need my uncles truck.. Your fiance will take care
of your safety
hmmm I grinned at him.
I was waiting eagerly for Gouthams arrival.. I was watching anxiously both sides of the
street.. After few minutes I saw Goutham at one end of the street searching nervously.
hey javeed.. See thats goutham
I really wanna run towards him and hug his arms. But it was public place..
But javeed was staring at him
dont say you are pointing to the man in blue shirt
Ya he is Goutham
pocket and was praying .Please God Save me : If I have to save myself I have to be
patient. What if someone else come and drag me along with them??? Oh no Goutham
should come first The Traffic was getting lighter and I sensed some vehicles moving
further forward.
Move fast I patted the auto driver
And when the driver was about to move the car someone caught the side bar of the
auto. It was Goutham who was standing there and was looking at me very angrily.
Get down Poo
Goutham !!! Hey Please get in I missed you.. Get in soon and I pulled goutham
inside
Bhaai saap.. move fast.. Go to Borivali National Park soon and I was holding
Gouthams hands very tightly
Pooja .. wat ..
I missed you goutham.. I really missed you.. thank God u r here Hey look back
those rowdies are chasing me.. Please be with me I hugged his shoulder and was
weeping..
Oh k k.. dont worry I will be with you.. Hey stop the auto now
Oh no goutham.. Dont stop now I have to be in Borivali park now
For wat???
You know what they have rescued some 10 girls today along with me.. They all will be
waiting there.. If we go there we can escape safely from Mumbai.. Please come with me..
I love you and when I uttered the last 3 words my heart pained a lot
so all are waiting there.. k. he was smiling cruelly.
I love you too Pooja.. but at which place exactly they are waiting??? Its a huge national
park
even I dont know He said if I go there he will come and take me to the desired
place..
Oh k Move fast to Borivali..
Goutham took his cell phone out and before he could dial a number I snatched his cell
from him
I will inform my mom.. she will be more happy if I talk and I dialed my moms
number.. It was switched off..
It is switched off Goutham.. Let me try again.. and I tried five times.
Goutham was peeping out the auto and was looking back often They were still
following us I have to take goutham alone to the park.. But how???
Javeed is out.. He might have some idea for me
****************************************************************************************************
***************
Javeed was in a call
I have given pistol to pooja Suraj is with her in auto.. They are moving towards the
Borivali park..
Is he alone???
No .. He is being followed by his men in Innova..
k.. I will be there in Borivali park soon..you too come there.. Dont worry about the
idiots in Innova..we can crack them soon
ya k sir and the call was cut
****************************************************************************************************
******
I was still trying in phone for my mother.
I have to make a call.,.. Give me the mobile Goutham dragged the mobile from me..
make sure he doesnt makes any calls in between javeeds voice was echoing inside
me..
Please goutham.. shall I try once??? Please.. I was pleading to him as if a child is
pleading to her mom for an icecream
I know Goutham was trying to act smart to me.. If he has to find the rescue team he
need my help now.
Goutham smiled at me..
anything for you darling and he gave the cell to me.. He did turned back and
checked whether they are still following us
Are they still behind us Goutham??? I gave him a frightened look..
Ya baby dont worry.. Am with you
Hell !!! they are behind us.. What is Javeed doing out ????
Now I tried Javeeds number.. He picked up in the first ring
Hello mom.. this is pooja here.. How are you?? Hows dad? I was sobbing in
phone..
Gautham turned towards me and was listening my talk
Hey Pooja.. Is everything k.. Is he coming with you to Borivali??
Am fine mom.. Ya goutham is with me.. He has saved me mom.. But some rowdies are
following us in car.. Am scared.. Please pray for us I was really weeping this time..
Hey dont worry about them.. soon they will lose the track of you.. we have made
arrangements.. Did he made any calls to them???
I was trying you for the past 15 minutes mom.. Why was your phone switched off???
Oh k.. you will reach there in half an hour.. Drop the phone somewhere.. Make sure he
doesnt makes any call.. bye
I will come home soon mom..goutham is with me.. Take care of dadLove u all and
the call was cut.
Now am feeling happy Goutham .. Let me check whether they are following us.. I did
peeped out.. Goutttaaaaaammm .. they are still behind us.. Oh my god!!! and I
dropped the phone down ..
Am with you.. dont panic where is the phone???
phone??? Oh S**t!!! Guess I have dropped somewhere.. am sorry.. I was bit tensed..
what the F leave it
When he turned back the Innnova was missing.. Gautham was restless..
Hey Gautham.. they are not behind us.. Hurreh!! We are finally safe.. I was smiling at
him
Stop the auto.,.. I have to make a call
No bhaai saap.. speed up to boreli.. are you mad goutham??? If you make call now
they will catch us.. Lets reach boreli first and then you make calls.. Or else you get
down n do all your calls.. I will go to Boreli this time I was very harsh in my tone..
Goutham was silent for a while and then he smiled
Ya k honey .. we will reach there first.. he gave a mordant smile ..
We reached Boreli National Park in half an hour Goutham gave the fare for the auto..
there was a telephone booth nearby..
Come Pooja.. I have to make a call This time I cant deny him
He went inside the booth and was talking to someone If that gang is somewhere near
they would reach here anytime I searched around.. Javeed was missing.. I have to do
something before that criminal gang comes here
Gun!! I have a gun!! What if I shoot him and escape.. the place very crowded If caught
To be Continued..
See Raghav.. Its not what you think.. Goutham is a criminal.. He..
You girls could make any man as a criminal.. See I dont want any reasons from you.. I
want this marriage to be stopped.. you have 2 more hours.. Do run out of my life.. Or
else I swear I will disclose all the photographs.. It would be a great humiliation to you
and your family..
Hey will you please stop this nonsense.. It is not me in the photograph.. You believe it
or not that is the truth. I wont run from here.. You reveal the photos to everyone ,stop
the marriage, and do whatever you wantam not bothered.. Its waste talking to a fool
like you.. And It is better to get humiliated in crowd than marrying you Get Lost..
and I angrily cut the call. I was grasping for my breath and I could feel my heart
accelerating its speed
F##K !!!! Why cant he listen to me once !!! anyways this marriage is not gonna happen..
He can unveil the photos even after I leave.. Then there will be no one from my side to
prove am innocent.. And additionally If the bride is missing from the marriage hall the
society will have its own stories.. No I wont let this happen .. Let him show!! I will face
the consequences
I splashed cool water on my face.. Cool water is the best way to control your rage..
Dad used to follow this often whenever he fights with mom.. I missed my dad very
much now.. Had he been here I would have had a moral support in his hectic situation.
My phone was blinking now with a display Raghav Calling
Why is he calling now??? I have nothing to speak with him.. I disconnected the call .. He
called me three more times and each time I disconnected it in the very first ring..
shameless man!! I was still grumbling in wrath.
A new message from Raghav
What has he texted me..??? By the time I was about to open the message I got a call from
unknown number Well its a very old trick.. when someone often ignores our call then
call them from an unknown number Let me ask him why is he calling me so many
times and I picked the call..
Hello diaaaaaa how are you ?? I was speechless for a moment..It was Goutham
Well.. thats just a revenge.. After all you have cheated me.. and you have shot me too..
Pooja is still like a child.. She goes mad if she sees a shower mom was giggling to an
aunty.. I have seen that aunty twice.. She is Raghavs mom.. She was wearing blue
colour Silk Saree which must cost at least a lakh.. And she was wearing everything in
match.. blue bangles , blue stoned necklace , hair bands and she had adored her eyes
with blue colored eye pencil too.. Thank god Blue lipstick was missing!!
thats k.. even Raghav is crazy about water.. ha ha ha and she started to laugh very
carefully without troubling her dark red lipstick..
And even my mom was laughing madly.. was that a joke??? When people around you
are smiling you have to smile back even if it is a funeral.. I gave a sarcastic smile back..
Get ready soon Pooja.. Its getting late.. Raghav is waiting.. Again it was raghavs
mom
Ya k aunty
The bridal makeup was being done with an enhanced speed. One women was doing
something with my hair and the other was focused on my face Some were having a
look at the bridal dress and most others were very focused on the jewels.. I was waiting
for a shout or scream outside to stop my marriage.. there must be competition between
Raghav and Gautham for whom to stop the marriage first.. But there was nothing
unusual happening outside.. It was a usual marriage hall with all kids roaming around,
young misses adjusting their makeup and chatting with friends, boys going around the
beautiful girls and commenting, relatives sitting as a group and discussing their family
problems.. Well I was expecting a big blast outside to happen at any time
After an hour the whole bridal makeup was over . I was wearing a beautifully designed
silk saree which was dark green in color.. And all the jewels were exclusively designed
for marriage.. With neat makeup I was looking gorgeous
They took me to the marriage hall.. I have never seen Raghav till now.. And I dont want
too.. everything seemed to be fine around.. why has he not revealed the photos yet?? Is
he gonna stand up when he is about to tie the knot as it always happens in tamil
movies?? And where is Goutham?? Is he too waiting for the right time???
Whatever!! Pooja be calm.. this marriage is not gonna happen .. If questioned tell the
crowd what happened to you
And now I am here being seated near Raghav as his bride I cared not to look at him..
but I sensed he was looking at me..
why are you waiting.. cancel the marriage.. I whispered at him
There was no response from him and 5 minutes later he tied the knot.
Hey!!! What are you doing??? I saw his face for the first time when he tied the knot
some flowers were falling on us.. My mom was wiping her tears
Am Pooja Raghav now I couldnt believe that this marriage happened.. where is
Goutham and Why has Raghav married me????
I have lots of questions which needed their answers badly.. I was waiting for a perfect
moment
And of course it was our wedding night.
To be continued
Raghav was standing in the balcony and was staring at the sky.. He neither cared to look
at the adornment around nor dreamt about his wedding night. His hands were tightly
holding those photographs which Goutham gave him.
He looked those photos for the hundredth time.. Pooja was standing near a waterfall
and Goutham was kissing her. But there was slight difference in the lightening. Poojas
face was little dim in light but Gouthams face was glowing in sunlight. Though it is
impossible for a common man to find, a genius in Matlab could easily find it.. Damn !!
These are morphed for sure!! How did I believed him and shouted at her without even
listening what she is trying to say??? Though in other two photos Pooja was found
sitting with him near a lake Raghav was not able to believe that.. If one is morphed
there is no need to check the others.
S**t !!! How did that bas***d thought I would believe these morphed pictures and stop
this marriage?? If Pooja hadnt shouted I would have not even thought to examine the
photo again.. But she said that she has never taken photos with him but she knows
him What might be the relationship between him and her?? Whatever am not gonna
care.. All girls are the same!! I have got enough experience with girls and am not gonna
believe any b***h again..
And that Goutham.. why did he vanished from the place when I said I ll call the police
and ask them to talk in favor of his love??? Lousy Ba***d !!! I have seen him before
somewhere but where??? I was not able to recall ..
Mom Calling Raghavs mobile flashed. When he was in London Raghav would be
eagerly waiting for his moms call. But for the last six months it was irritating for him. If
mom hadnt got heart attack or If mom hadnt threatened him of committing suicide or
at least If mom had understood his inner hurt feelings, this marriage would have not
happened. Raghav was frustrated when his dad too supported her mom in getting
married.. and finally their parents won and Raghav accepted this marriage. But the last
chance .. If the photos which Goutahm had given been real I would have stopped this
marriage.. His conscious didnt allow him to put false grievance on a girl and use that
chance to stop this unwelcomed marriage.
The mobile was ringing still..
Why is she calling me now ??? Advise me to act as a goody goody husband to her
daughter in law??? If I dont attend the call she would come to the room straight. Am
not in a mood to talk to anyone in person. With frustration Raghav attended the call.
Hello Raghav.. Howz the decoration.. Stunned ah??? With great difficulty we traced
Mr.Jane to do this interior decoration part. I myself chose the best design for this
room..And that curtains..
Mom please stop it the decoration is awesome.. This is what you want right?? Please
leave me alone and he switched off his mobile.
Still his mind was circling around Goutham.. If he wants to stop the marriage why did
he ran away?? Or are they a group to snatch money from me showing the pictures of my
wife with someone else.. My wife These words were hard to digest for Raghav.. If it
had been a year before the word My wife had only meaning in Raghavs dictionary. It
was she !! MEHA How could she betray me like this?? Even by thinking her Raghav
felt his blood pressure raise. No I wont think about her .. But each time we try to forget
a person they often occupy our mind without our approval and give us the unbearable
pain. Its a specialty in Love. Raghav purposely switched his topic to Pooja and
Goutham and each time Mehas smiling face disturbed him.. She is such a Bi**h!! Why
am I still thinking about her..
He sensed someone entering the room.. It must be Pooja.. With no interest in looking at
her Raghav was staring at the sky.
***************************************************
Pooja had gone fed up in the change in makeup and dress since from the morning.. this
is the fourth time she changed her dress and makeup. She never tried to talk with
raghav during evening reception. To smile in front of everyone when your heart is
crying inside is very hard. Pooja has mastered that art. And finally when she was about
to leave her family and start in car she cried like a broken dam. When most of them felt
she is crying for missing her family , only Pooja knew the exact reason. She was neither
happy nor sad of this marriage. But when comes about future she had only a question
mark in front.. and She was still confused why Raghav married her..
It had been a perfect time for him to stop this marriage.. Old photos, ex-boyfriend in
marriage hall and A girl like me as a bride!!! as he often said.
Every weird things happen to me !! Well with the height of frustration I went inside the
room. I was in light blue colored silk saree and my hair was left loose.. When the
beauticians tried to keep flowers on my head my mother-in-law refused it .. Total family
has some mysteries in them. Ufff!!
It was the most beautiful room I had ever seen in my life. And the room freshener was
really mesmerizing. This is the best habit of mine !! However worse the situation in my
life I have never failed to relish the beauty around.. Few seconds of refreshment gives us
better strength to face worst problems.
The room was very neat and everything was in order. Exactly opposite to my room!!!
She thought of her room which would look like a ghost house and If you have find a
particular object you have to go for treasure hunt.
It was deserted !! she glided inside the room very gently. Now a days young girls walk
gently only on their wedding night or when they are about to deliver a baby !! It was a
bad comment given by Goutham once seeing me walking so fast. S**t !! why am I
thinking about him???
Raghav was standing near the balcony. He didnt seemed to care a damn about me..
Well even am not bothered about him. But I have lots of questions which needed its
answer. Shall I too go to the balcony and talk to him.. No It would be as though am
behind him and trying to flatter him.. He has the ability to use any word and hurt a
person.
No I will wait here. Let him come and speak. Well mostly girls never start a
conversation. I sat on the couch which was near the cot and was looking around the
room.. There was a shelf nearby. Its better to call it as a mini library. He must be a book
worm like me.. well I dont want to dig into that shelf on the very first night and was
waiting anxiously for Raghav.
It was almost half an hour ,Raghav cared not to look at me.. Does he know am here ??? I
coughed purposely. I know its a very old trick and it does work mostly.. But Raghav
was completely deaf to my cough.. well I must try something newThere was a tv on
the corner of the room.. And the remote was lying nearby the couch. Let me disturb him
technically. I switched on the tv and raised its volume step by step.. Awww!! It was
maximum now , but still there was no reaction from him.. this volume would have woke
up a dead person from grave too.. Damn !!!! He is very stubborn.
The tv was telecasting some news channel.. I did tuned the channels without leaving
any gap between.. Well best way to irritate a person is to tune the channels often that too
in full volume
Raghav banged the door near balcony. He came with such a speed and lifted the
television and banged it down.. The LCD was shattered into pieces
I stood there speechless in shock.. He hurried towards me snatched the remote from my
hand and pulled me towards him.. Before I could sense what was happening his lips
were on mine.. I stood motionless for few seconds and when I recognized the reality it
was too late to fight with him. His arms were tightly holding me that couldnt move
even a inch.. after few minutes his arms loosened and he left me.. But his eyes were
burning in rage..
this is what you want right??? Is this enough or you want everything?? he was
breathing hard and took steps further towards me..
I was too grasping for my breath veiled in the unexpected jolt.
Hey stop there I was struggling for my words And I never knew why tears were
trickling on my cheeks..
He stopped and was gazing at me like he is looking at an ugly beast.. Every cell in my
body was burning in embarrassment and agony.. If he hadnt been my husband I would
have slapped him..
When he further took a step towards me I nearly shouted
Stop there.. Or I will slap you
Slap me ??? Do you think that you have so much strength in you?? You blo**y bi.. He
didnt complete the word.
I couldnt control my tears.. But crying in front of a man would show you weaker. With
no more words to speak I sat on the couch . There was deadly silence between us..
Raghav moved to the balcony again and took the same position back
Now I was able to weep independently.. I hated crying.. But In this situation I was left
with no other choice.. Quite after a while I felt little relaxed wiping all the stains of
tears and with no energy left I laid on the couch I recalled all the shocks which I got
in one single day.. God !! Its enough !!! I will face remaining shocks tomorrow
Raghav came inside the room .. He was roaming for a while inside the room and took
an empty cardboard.. He went near the broken LCD and started picking up the broken
pieces and noiselessly dropped them inside it
was thinking deeply what should I reply.. but he never cared at me and went for
cautiously picking the broken pieces of LCD and placing it in the cardboard box.. The
broken pieces were flickering in the dim light..
I will better help him in collecting those pieces.. And accept his apology and also clearly
mention to him that not to repeat this again..
When I moved towards him , Stop there It was Raghav in his elevated voice..
I ll
Use the couch..
pardon
I mean dont use my bed.. I hate people using it.. Guess you are comfortable with the
couch..If not I ll order a new cot for you
Who is bothered about his bed???
See Raghav.. Am..
I know you are my wife.. But dont think am such a decent guy who will be in control
having a beautiful girl lying beside him in his own bed.. Next time I wont be sorry too..
So your safety is in your hand Use the couch and
Hey.. dont you have an habit of listening others??? Who is bothered about your cot ?
and am very much comfortable here
then why the hell did you moved towards it??
heyyou have got perversion in your eyes.. will you believe that I thought I will help
you in collecting these.. I pointed those broken parts..
I will Clean the room.. he nearly ordered me.. Then he just kept the box down and
left that place to sit on his precious cot He is now seated on his bed with his legs
crossed turning the pages of a magazine..
How rude !!! I was burning in rage !!! As if he is King and am his slave cleaning his
room..Hell.. I was not in a mood to fight or argue with him .. with no choice left I
eviscerated it and placed the box in a corner of the room
There was no sign of sorry in his face.. cha!! For a minute even I considered him Noble..
Chanceless With distress I progressed towards the couch..
Hey.. wait.. It was Raghav..
Now what ?? Is he going to complain that I have not cleaned properly ?? I havent
cleaned any place in my life with so much perfection
What??? I have no strength left to argue with you I was frowning at him..
even am See I need privacy There is a small room attached to this one.. Its my
reading room.. So
can you please help me to move this couch to that room??? I dont want to listen him
anymore..
Oh yasure he grinned
That was the first time he smiled at me I could feel my heart getting lighter.. am I
feeling glad for his smile?? Oh nothing Pooja
He was very strong indeed.. Must have gone to gym daily.. I had just placed my hands
on it as if am pushing.. but the reality is 98% strength was his..
now you can use this room.. Dont touch the computer and the files in the drawer..
Other than that you can use everything good night.. he hurried out of the room
Good night.. I know he might have not heard my words.. and he never cared too !!!
Even this room was well-ordered and air conditioned.. the room had only one entrance..
so if I have to leave the room I have to cross Raghavs room It had a big sized window
skillfully covered with curtains.. There was a reading table with many shelves in it
There was a cupboard covered with glass which had a large collection of books
He must be mad about books !!! Well I have a good time pass here
You can lock the door Raghav was shouting from his room
With no more words to ask I locked it I was tired !! very tired now !! But I know I
couldnt sleep now.. I had lots of questions in my mind which needed their answer.. I
can ask Raghav but I am damn sure he wont answer any of my questions properly and
rather would insult me
Where is goutham now??? I have to inform Javeed that Goutham is not dead but
how?? After I escaped from that hell , Javeed hadnt contacted me I still remember the
last words which he said to me
shift your home to some other place.. a place where you have never been and change
your college.. dont update anything about you in facebook.. and.. be safe k
How could I contact him??? My brain was wavering around.. I never knew when I slept
and it was Raghav smiling in my dreams !!! and I never knew a great shock was waiting
for me tomorrow !!!
****************************************************
It was a heavily loaded truck with a large container behind.. the driver riding the truck
in the busy Chennai highways A couple was sitting near the driver. The woman was
in her early forties but seemed more aged with wrinkles on her face . The old-fashioned
saree which she was currently wearing was faded and it portrayed her to be the poorest
individual from India . And the man was in his late forties looked very strong but still
his dressing was even more worse than his wife He was chatting to the driver
Is this road always busy??? the man enquired to the driver
ya sahaab !! This is NH4 This road connects 4 states.. People travelling to Mumbai,
Banglore or Pune always prefer this route.. I myself has travelled 50 times in this
highway.. the driver was propagandizing his experience..
So why are you shifting your home to Mumbai??? the driver asked the man
I have got a transfer of job to Mumbai So we are shifting there
am an agent in a private insurance company.... Have got a promotion.. the man was
smiling at him
The driver looked at the couple bizarrely
Oh these clothes Dont mistake us.. My wife gives me such clothes to wear whenever
we go for a night travel.. she is bit cautious about our safety.. he was smiling again
ha ha.. Ya sahaab.. These ladies are all the same.. even my wife allows me to wear good
dresses only on someones marriage function So to wear a decent dress I have wait for
a wedding He laughed such loudly that the woman nearby woke up
------------.. whats happening here??? Dont you know am sleeping.. she shouted at his
husband...
nothing dear.. the driver laughed I will ask him to be quietYou please sleep
honey and he tapped her gently..
The lady resumed her sleep mode back.
sorry.. My wife loses her temper when disturbed from sleep he looked at the driver
pithily..
I understandIts very hard to be a husband saahab.. the driver whispered and
smiled at the man
so when will we cross the tamilnadu border??? The man asked him..
Just 5 kilometers saahab.. we will cross in 10 minutes
thanks the man felt a sigh of relief inside him
Before they could cross 2 kilometers two police jeeps were on the way checking the
vehicles
The man felt his heart skip a beat.. but still he was strong inside and recalled Surajs
words Dont worry Police wont check this vehicle.. this truck has been exclusively
used for shifting home.. So they wont doubt you And moreover I have informed the
road inspector too.. He will take care be careful about the girls.. If one is missing I will
kill you.. samje???
He felt his adrenaline raising and lowering in his blood in a zigzag manner.. God !!
Please let them not check the truck and the thought of 7 girls lying unconscious inside
the truck wrapped in big boxes bewildered him
He tried to wake up the lady who was sleeping still who was snoring like a
chimpanzee.. Well he doesnt know whether chimpanzee could snore , but he didnt find
better illustration than that
Get up !! you useless woman !! he was screaming.
Why are you waking her up saahab??? This is a usual checking.. they know me.. You
know I have travelled this route more than 50 times..
OMG!!! How many times will he tell that he has travelled in this route ???? As if this is a
Kashmir Border.----------!!!
The truck was in a queue to undergo the checking.. There were 2 police jeeps and some
10 policemen in their neatly ironed khaki uniform..
Cant you ignore the checking and go ??? the man queried him in frustration..
Dont worry sahaab.. Its nothing.. they will check for license I have it and plus I have
travelled this route more than 50 times.. I know them
----------.. stop this nonsense!!! Drive the truck the man was shuddering in rage..
He quickly dialed Surajs number
Suraj picked the call in the very first ring
So have you crossed Tamilnadu border???
No sahaab there is a checking on the highways.. we are in a queue and we will be
checked after 3 vehicles.. am scared.. he was hissing
you fool.. Dont show you are scared !!! I said I have informed the road police.. They
will take care.. and this lorry driver has a good name.. so no chance of checking.. got
it ?? Now be normal.. text me after you cross the tamilnadu border if something goes
wrong give the phone to Police.. I will take care and the call was cut..
Now the truck stopped
vanakkam sir they are shifting home to Mumbai He is an insurance agent sir
shut up !! show me your license one of the policemen with a big mustache yelled..
here it is sahaab.. I have an experience of 10 years in driving.. And I have travelled this
route more than and the driver resumed his speech again
---------!!! the man was screaming inside
what is your name??? another police enquired the man
Ra.. Ramesh sir
Who is she??? the police pointed the lady..
My wife
whats inside???
what.. sir.. nothing.. just our old utensils and furniture sir.. he was swallowing the

Hey driver open the container!!! the police ordered ..

The man and the driver followed the police the man was about to collapse in fear.. He
quickly called Suraj
Sahaab !! the police are checking our vehicle!!!
give the phone to them
Just a minute sir !!! My boss wants to talk to you and he handed to the police officer
who seemed to be the superior officer there
Hello.. can I talk to Inspector Antony now???
Antony here the officer replied

are you checking the vehicle???------------
sorry.. there is problem out.. You cant cross the border now .. I will seize the vehicle
now sir.. and I will release it morning.. Please understand the police was
whispering.
Meanwhile a constable was shouting from inside the truck.. sir !!there are girls
unconscious inside
Another police slapped the man
------------ !! are you kidnapping girls !!! arrest them all
****************************************************
Suraj was waiting anxiously for the call from inspector antony
Damn!! Why is he taking time to call???
Desparately he dialed his number
Hello Antony answered him in a sleepy voice
hell!! are you sleeping When will you release the truck and the gals???
Suraj sir.. you?? Am not getting what are you trying to say??? the truck must have
crossed tamilnadu
hey you said you will arrest and leave them in the morning.. Stop playing
but sir !! I ordered all my men not to go for checking at the time the truck is crossing..
Uffff!!! Is every mom like this??? Well though I cant follow everything what she said I
wished at least I could follow first two.. I dont want the people here to think am lazy.
Pooojaaaa Raghav this time banged the door with more force..thank god the door
is made of teak wood.. Orelse the door would have got a hole in between
Ya ya am coming I adjusted my dress and opened the door
There raghav was standing ferociously as if he is gonna kill me
. He was wearing perfect formal dress .. Oh he is ready for the office.. the clock on the
wall was showing time as 9.20 Shit !! I have slept so long
Am sor
Get lost from here.. I have to take important files.. move he nearly pushed me and
rushed inside the room
This time I dont want to argue with him.. Well the mistake is on my side I quickly
took bath and wore a brand new dress.. this is the main advantage of getting married..
at least for a month you can wear new dresses.
When I came out of the room to my surprise Raghav was still in the room
So you always take bath for half an hour??? he gave an ironic smile.
Whats his problem??? Today actually took bath in such a hurry
No.. I normally take an hour.. Today I hurried I grinned at him.
I was able to hear his murmur clearly these ladies !! They wont allow us to go for job
too!!! #$#$^@#^@^ He nearly banged the door and left.
Guess his mom has stopped him from going to office I got ready in 10 minutes and
rushed down.. I dont want him to come up again and scream at me
There his mom , dad and Raghav was waiting on the dining table.. Two servants were
waiting nearby standing in a position to serve food.. If someone says on the mount, Get
set , Go they will start serving I guess..
Raghav was busying typing something in his phone.. Raghavs mom Gayathri saw me
first.. She was in full makeup.. everything was pink in her today Pink saree ,pink eye
shadow, pink nail polish , pink bangles , necklace with pink stones on it well the list
goes on I was wondering how she manages to get everything in match And I
looked myself.. I was in green salwar blue bangles, red stoned dolor in chain which
my mother gifted me and no nail polish.. I had just tied my wet hair with a clip and
looked out of fashion in front of her.
She was smiling at me Good morning Pooja dear.. she nearly screamed I was
jerked for a second by the sudden sound but all others seemed normal. They must have
got used to it.
Good morning aunty I smiled back
So you too get up at 9.. thats sweet of you dear.. even I wish the same.. But this Raghav
and his dad always wake me up early.. the way she made her face as if she is very sad
made me laugh
No aunty.. I usually wake up at 5 to catch the office bus at 6.30 .. Yesterday I slept
late..So..
I understand She looked at her husband and both smiled with a blush Even the
two lady servants exchanged a humble smile
Whats happening??? Raghav was staring at me angrily Oh shit !! what have you said
Pooja??? Now I clearly understood the reason behind their smile
Nothing like what you all think.. actually
Hey Raghav.. So you have grown up now.. You wont listen my words I have
mistaken.. I must have not trusted my son so blindly that he will listen me Revathi
was correct
Oh mom.. please dont start about Revathi aunty and her stupid speech..Now what do
you want me to do???
Take Pooja out
I will take her out in the evening.. Now let me go now
Thats sweet of my boy.. She kissed her on his forehead and Raghav went out..
Going Out with Raghav???? I cursed myself for marrying him He will definitely insult
me more
Pooja dear.. Go and get ready k
Aunty I need a help
ya you can ask me anything
I need to browse.. Where can I???
Use Raghavs system
Password ????
He is your husband dear.. You ask he will do anything for you.. She winked at me
He will do anything for me.. Best joke of the year
I will ask him later aunty..For nowwwwwwww..
k k .. use the system in living room.. It has no password.. she smiled and left the
place
Now I have to track Javeed and inform him about Goutham first I tried with facebook
that was a bad shot.. I missed him This time I have to trace him and finish his life
hey javeed.. do you have his clear photograph The picture which you sent me last
time was not clear and I need his recent picture.. Guess I saw a man resembling him
yesterday
Yesterday in chennai??? But where boss??? javeed exclaimed..
I said no boss .k . well dont ask me where I met him.. its a big story.. Send these gals
to their parents I will contact you all later.. bye and he left the place..
Javeed admired this man a lot !! He is a genious !!! Javeed sighed
*****************************************************************
Raghav was busily going through his files His mobile started to vibrate
Mom calling Raghav felt disgusted.. This mom !!! why is she calling me in office
hours???
Raghav had his strict rules.. Unless its really an emergency he doesnt talks with his
family during his office hours.. His mom too knows that damn!!
With frustration he kept the file down and attended the call
Ya mom.. what???
Its 4 PM
So what can I do ???
You said you will take out Pooja in the evening
Ohhh that.. Mom I have got work.. I ll take her out tomorrow..
Tomorrow??? Thats why I stopped you from going to officeSee you are coming here
in an hour.. Or else I will come there with Pooja
No mother.. dont do that.. I ll come .. bye and he disconnected the call
************************************************************
Oh no aunty.. I dont use eye shadow and blushers Pooja was pleading to Raghavs
mom Gayathri
you shouldnt say no.. You will look gorgeous in makeup and she was applying
something more on my eyelashes
But aunty I never
you know what It was my childhood dream to become a beautician.. But my stupid
husband didnt allow me to pursue..
So now you are fulfilling your dream on me I gave a derisive smile on her..
ha ha ha she was giggling like a thunder..
You are very humorous She laughed again..
Am serious aunty.. I want to shout.. But I dont want to disappoint her.. Other than her
show off , she seemed to be really sweet
After 10 minutes she let me to see the mirror.
Now u can see she handed me the mirror with a proud look
OMG!!! I was shocked to see me.. I looked like a cartoon character.. I was in lavender
color salwar.. everything was lavender in me.. even the lipstick.. If I go to circus now
they will immediately appoint me as a clown.
you look like aishwarya rai she commented at me with a delighted look..
Damn!! Havent she seen aishwarya even in calendar photos???? I want to bang my head
on the mirror itself but I dont want to hurt her
thanks aunty.. Its awesome.. But I never go out wearing so much makeup.. so
You look awesome.. Raghav will be mesmerized seeing you
And the door bell rang
guess its raghav.. come with me.. He will be pleased to see you
no auntyI
come.. she grabbed and pulled me to the hall
I was praying God !! Please It must not be Raghav. I dont want to stand before him
like a clown
But It was Raghav.
Raghav you have a surpiseeeeeeeeeeee. aunty exclaimed as if she is gonna show
the 8th wonder of the earth and she pointed me
who is she mom??? Raghav was looking at me curiously..
who??? Hey she is Pooja.. Your wife
what the go please go and wash your face.. I dont want to introduce a cartoon
character as my wife..
Well I was waiting for this second.. without any delay I rushed to the restroom..
you are very Rude Raghav his mom complaining..
I hadnt been insulted so much. After I came out of the restroom raghavs mom tried
to console me..
dont worry dear.. I know how much you must have been hurt.. Dont worry I will put
quick makeup soon
whattttt???? No aunty .. Raghav is in a hurry.. sorry and I evacuated the place soon..
Now I am in the car with raghav.. First date with him..
I never knew it would be the worst date one would have ever went..
To be continued.
him.. and I didnt know how to reduce it too.. with no option left I rubbed my hands to
make myself warm
Raghav unexpectedly gave a remote to me..
This button is for reducing the temperature and this one is to increase he never cared
about my response and continued his drive..
I increased the temperature inside the car and felt better after few minutes..
Thanks I know my voice was low.. but he must have heard it there was no response
from him..
I said thanks.. I tried again with a raised voice he behaved as if am talking to the
doors and windows of the car
Ufff !!! Even after knowing his character why are you expecting a reply from him for
your thanks..No you are not going to open your mouth until you reach home.This
time I was confident that I wont utter a word to him
After few seconds
Why do you want to thank me?? For the remote or for marrying you???
why did you marry me??? I never want to miss this chance
haan.. because am in love with you..will you believe ??? he looked at me ironically..
am not a fool.. you had a great chance to stop the wedding.. Ex-boyfriend, photos,
unwelcomed marriage.. what happened to you suddenly???
I looked at him keenly waiting for his reply..
those photos were morphed
So???
So I didnt find a strong proof to stop the marriage.. Got it????
Yeah
Seriously I expected a long explanation from him
So since he didnt find a strong proof against me to stop the marriage he didnt
I felt like sharing the bad experience I face with goutham and all the incidents that
happened in Mumbai.. But he has already got a bad impression about me.. I dont want
to worsen it by telling him I was about to be get sold in Mumbai market.. Hard time he
would believe it..
It was a quiet drive.. we were on the ECR road ECR road in Chennai is the favorite
hangout place for youngsters People hailing from rich background would prefer
resorts for dining and whereas from moderate and poor background would go for
roadside dhabas But there is a common place where everyone goes.. It is the beautiful
sea !!!
Now I got an idea of where are we heading to He might go for one of the richest
resorts where one dosa would cost Rs.500 (Conditions apply :p).. I used to wonder a lot..
How could one cook a dosa worth 500 bucks??? Might be they go for branded items..
Branded rice ,Branded oil ,Branded tawa for cooking dosa and Branded chefs for
making it But still I was not able to justify the fact Dosa For just Rs.500 .
While I was deeply involved in my thoughts of dosa , we were almost inside a resort..
Raghav stopped the car and gave a glance at me So this glance is to get down the
car
It was a beautiful resort and I was able to find foreigners more.. the time was almost
5.45 PM now and the sun was bidding goodbye with its orange rays
We had to walk for quite a distance to go to our reservation place.. It was a small open
hut beautifully craved in wood which was near the sea shore.. there was a table inside it
neatly covered with white tablecloth and a candle on it.. Candle light dinner??? With
him??? I never thought Raghav would make this special arrangement for our first
date
Raghav took his seat first and I was watching the sunset
sit down Raghav nearly ordered
I sat opposite to him and tried as far as possible to not look at him straight the waiter
came and gave us a menu card..
Without even consulting me Raghav ordered some 6 items , each 2 in number Atleast
for courtesy he must have asked me what I like well am not gonna eat whatever he
has ordered
When the waiter left with a smile ,Raghav looked at me..
This is an Italian restaurant You wont know what these items are so I ordered
myself.. Is that ok for you???
How do you presume yourself that I dont know what these are??? I had been to Italian
restaurants already And..
Is it??? .. then have a look at it.. he offered me the menu card
Capellini alla Checca -18.89$
Penne arrabiata -9.34$
Spaghetti Portofino -12.2$
Linguine Della Casa-9.95$
Capicola- 9.95$
Gnocchi-12.65$
farfella Ametriciana 13.45$ and the list was very big.. Uffff!! So these are the names
of food I was amazed if am finding so hard to read it how hard it would be eat
them Well I dont want to stand before him as an ignorant child
There was a word which was easy to pronounce.. It was Capicola.. Sounds like coco-cola
right???
I love capicola.. Order that for me
am sorry.. did you said capicola??? Raghav asked me with a question..
Ya.. Please order that every time I go for an Italian restaurant I have that.. I smiled
at him..
************************************************
Meanwhile , a small village near the outskirts of Chennai
It was a small hut A girl was crying inside.. she seemed to be not more than 15 years
oldAlong with her there were Goutham and five other men who looked majestic and
cruel they were beating that girl
Give me the pencorder.. Or else we will kill you.. One of the men was shouting at
her
Release my sister Pleaseee She was begging them..
Goutham was in height of frustration.
Hey release her @#%%@$^#$^ sister
And a girl who couldnt be more than 10 years old was left free from the men.
The 15 yr old girl handed the pencorder to them.. She was the one who was saved by
Javeed and his gang yesterday.
Now what can we do boss??? A man enquired Goutham
Kill them both and he hastily took out his lap and loaded the memory card in it
You must have sent one of our girls to watch them a man said to goutham
No.. these guys have a clear segregation about whom are innocent and who are spy.. I
tried twice.. But those gals where sent back with a warning Those *@#%*%* were not
able to trace a bit about that gang
Meanwhile the pencorder displayed the videos
There were men who were completely new to him.. Goutham was able to trace only one
among them..
This was the guy who often begs him for volunteering in my area.. How did I not
suspected him????
Hey what is his name.. he freezed the screen for a while and asked one of his men
his name is javeed.. And his address is . The man took out a notebook and said
javeeds addres..
shall we kill him boss??? Another man asked him..
I need him bring him here alive. We need to find the mastermind behind this.
To be continued..
So do you like Italian dishes a lot??? I broke the quietness between us and started
the conversation ..
No
Then why you brought me here to an Italian restaurant????
Mom booked this table.. I had to..
So It was his mom who booked this table Again he was silent.. does he wants me to
start the conversation every time???
hmmm So You love your mom a lot ??? I know this is a stupid question.. Everyone
loves their mom
Who doesnt ??? It was Raghavs Reply he was frowning indeed
Guess he doesnt want to have a conversation with me.. I could clearly perceive from his
face..
Can I ask you something???
go head
Why does his reply sound like a command always??? He must be a commander in
military.. I cursed myself for chatting with him even after getting humiliated often but
when there are lot of questions eating your brain, a mere humiliation doesnt stops you
from finding the elucidations
Why dont you want to get married?? I mean why do hate marriage with .. ??? It was
difficult for me to complete the question
shall we leave???
I asked you
am leaving.. If you wish come to car..Or take your time and come back to home
whenever you wish and he started to move towards the car
I shouldnt have asked that question.. that too with Great Raghav.. He shows too much
of attitude.. I murmured and followed him Thought of taking taxi.. but Its not safe
for girls to travel alone in ECR road at late hours
No I wont talk to him anymore I swore ..
we started back to our home. There was a surprise waiting for us there.. It was the
worst surprise for me and Raghav
***************************************
Javeed was on his way back to Mumbai.. He had a great feel of relaxation in his mind
Working in such a group thrilled him a lot..
Now I could go back to my home and spend time with her He thought of his
beautiful wife Zara They got married 2 months before and Javeed was feeling bad that
he hasnt taken her out ever since he married her
I must take her out.. Might be for a honeymoon trip.. He smiled and started browsing
about the places to go on a trip.
To be continued.
I will say all the details about the man and the spy in your group.. but before that I
have see my wife Unless you show her to me , I swear you cant get a single word from
me
come lets start to Mumbai See your wife and let the dogs out
Javeed was amused He accepted my words without any hesitation
After 2 hours Goutham , Javeed and 3 other men were boarded on flight to Mumbai
****************************************************
Both got up by the knocking sound at the door
Raghav Pooja wake up.. its 3 o clock morning someone shouted from the door
Who the hell is calling 3 o clock as morning !!!!
Raghav and Pooja each tried from their stop the trip by each acting as if they are ill.. But
the adults over there teased them for their silly pranks and hurried them up.
With no other option left , Raghav and Pooja boarded the flight to Kullu manali
It was dark outside.. Pooja sat near the window and Raghav was seated next to her
Both were highly irritated that they never tried to speak with each other when the
flight was about to start a man in his late fifties sat near Raghav.. And the flight
moved....
Pooja remembered her last flight..It was with Goutham to ooty with Coimbatore Now
to Kullu manali Why I always for a hill station if I go by flight???
The man smiled at them..
Hai.. am John Abraham ofcourse not a film star.. he grinned and let his hand
towards Raghav..
Hai am Raghav Raghav smiled at him for courtesy
So honeymoon trip??? He smiled again at us..
Yeah Raghav frowned
You both make a lovely coupleCongratulations son
Thank you sir.. Raghav smiled at him
Going honeymoon to kullu manali.. wowww!! I missed this chance.. when I planned to
take my wife there I was almost fifty years old.. there was nothing much an old man can
do with his old wife in manali.. but still it was unforgettable he winked at him
So do you work in Manali??? Raghav badly wanted to change the topic.. he sensed
Pooja getting uncomfortable near by
I was once working.. Am a retired Pilot..
Oh wow.. So you were riding flights to manali??
Yeah son.. Though you cant see much now as it is dark as soon as you cross
Himachal Pradesh and fly over the valley you could have an magnificent view of the
places.. snow claded mountains, the greenery down Have you heard the run way of
Bhuntur airport is set amidst the deep valley whose peaks are several thousand feet
higher than the runway.. Bhuntar airport , I mean kullu manali airport is a very
challenging plot for a pilot I had always a soft corner for these type of adventures
and he smiled proudly..
that sounds interesting uncle Pooja joined their conversation
And guess what you will be flying 13,000 feet above Rohtang pass.. Its the boundary
between Tibet and Kashmir
13000 feet !! Oh My god !!! but how could one breathe uncle??? Pooja looked at him
like an innocent child
Raghav threw an angry look..
Pooja we are air-contioned inside the flight.. Dont worry about breathing k raghav
answered her in a derisive voice..
ha ha ha this is what we can find between young couples.. silly fights for silly
reasons.. he smiled
The flight stopped in Delhi airport for a while It was 6 AM.. Raghav switched on his
mobile..
Immediately he got a text message from Javeed
Your life is at stake
(now you must got a confirmation who is the boss !!! )
Will the trip continue til kullu manli
To be continued.

curious
Soooo crisp text??? What happened ??? Raghav was tangled He checked
his mobile again It is Javeed Message was received at 4.45 AM Damn !!!
Just after few minutes I boarded the flight he has send such a message
Pooja was talking something seriously with that old pilot
Pooja you sit here.. I need to make a call.. and he got up
Pooja doesnt wanted to leave her window seat but still she wanted to chat
with that uncle more.. He is such an adventurous man and had a similar
character of her dad .. Pooja and Raghav Exchanged their seats
From window seat, Raghav dialed Javeeds number A computer recorded
voice answered him..
The number is currently busy.. Please Try after some time
Shit !!! He did tried ten times again.. The same recorded voice was the only
reply which he got
Damn If my life is at stake let it be I will manage
By the time he got message from flight authorities that the flight will take off
in another ten minutes and to kindly switch off the mobile phones
Now let me try for the last time he tried again and the reply was same ..
Number busy
Damnwhere is Javeed ???? Raghav was highly frustrated
By the time he decided to switch off his cellphone he got a call from a new
number Raghav picked the call in the very first ring
Hey Raghav.. Javeed here Javeed was exhaling
Hey Javeed .. are you k ??? where are you??? Raghav identified the tension
in Javeeds voice and talked in a very soft voice to ease him
Am in Mumbai please say that you didnt call my number after seeing the
message
I tried .. But it was engaged.. Whats going on there man???
Suraj found me .. He has cracked the information somehow they have
kidnapped Zara.. They want me to tell all the information about our group
and about you as ransom to rescue Zara and my cell is with them.. they
have send message to every contact in my mobile.. I dono what is that but
its a trap.. Dont get into in it I called you to warn you
Hey am not bothered about me What happened to Zara ?? Is she fine ???
I dono They have snatched my phone .. And this is the phone I got as a gift
to zara.. they didnt notice it.. am in a public toilet now Suraj has left with
his men somewhere to bring Zara... Another man who is here to watch me is
standing out
Damn !!! So you didnt see your wife yet See Zara is important for us.. Tell
about me and give my number to him.. I will see the rest.
But they will kill you.. and if the information is out they may kill me and
Zara too
shit !! I must have killed him on the day of my wedding Since I thought
him dead and that too in marriage tension I missed that idiot accha chalo
Tell him you have my number and you have seen me.. But other than that you
know nothing and its a secret maintained in our groupand ya also Tell
him that I am on the way to kullu manali and its easy to trap me here
bring them all here.. We will face them.. And make sure Zara accompanies
you here.. be safe k I will contact you through this number..
You saw him on your wedding ???
Yeah I met.. But I was focused somewhere else.. He was there to stop my
marriage.. Hope my wife will know something about him
Its your honeymoon then.. I dont want to
Shut up javeed.. you know am not ready for another relationship Take care
of your wife.. And do inform me every bit..And currently where are you??
chatrapathi shivaji terminus
fine I will send our men there.. they will be watching you and they will
follow you too I know they wont harm you.. they need me.. and to find me
they need you Bring them here
Javeed heard someone knocking the door
Someone is knocking the door.. bye and the call was cut.
Raghavs heart was racing.. He immediately dialed some numbers and made
a conference call..
Meanwhile an airhostess approached Raghav Sir kindly switch off your
cell..
Just a minute He smiled at the air hostess and she left that place
Aejaz , Ralston , Shyam , Nithya ,Ankith, Sheela were on the conference
Raghav quickly gave orders to all in a minute and asked them all to be safe ..
He also instructed them to call all others in the group and inform them all
By the time the flight took off and the call got disconnected
Pooja and that uncle were still busy in their talk they were discussing about
a place near manali
Yeah dear dont ever miss that Rohtang pass you can find that on the
highway to Keylong.. You could have a wide-spread panorama of mountain
scenery there In place of the pinnacled hills, sheltered valleys and
cultivated tracts, the eye meets a range of precipitous cliffs, huge glaciers and
piled Moraine and deep ravines. It was the first place I went with my wife in
manali Best place to sit and talk with your loved ones And the uncle
was smiling
Loved ones !!! Will I ever find such a person in my life Pooja looked at
Raghav To her surprise even he was looking at her.
Need your seat back??? Raghav asked Pooja
Oh yeah .. Thanks and Raghav offered his seat The flight was flying
high above.
Pooja was thrilled to fly above the great Himalayas But she was not able to
see anything down except the clouds and the mist It was disappointing to
her she wanted to see the snow cladded mountains and the cliffs.
Please God .. Make the weather clear.. She humbly requested God.
It is a Good weather .. uncle exclaimed
But uncle what I can see is only mist around
Oh yeah.. but the mist is not very heavy the Pilot could easy cross this U
know what Pooja Every 2 flights in 3 gets delayed or sometimes get cancelled
due to the bad weather in manali Sometimes we had to travel at negative
degrees of temperature Its a miracle that in the month of January the mist
is less the pilot could have a safe landing.
so uncle what will you do if the flight gets struck in the middle ??? Raghav
questioned the uncle
Normally we wont take off the flight in such conditions.. we get a
confirmation of the weather before we start.. But yeah sometimes critical
situations happen Its of high risk to go for an emergency landing too.. Its a
rugged terrain area but still we have to take risk We first locate and
inspect a potential landing site and go for precautionary landing.. sometimes
we go for ditching.. It is the same as a forced landing, but only on water. After
the disabled aircraft makes contact with the surface of the water, the aircraft
will most likely sink if it is not designed to float, although it may well float for
hours. We use that time to save all our passengers. Its God grace I had never
been thrown in such a critical situation
It was very informative talking with that old pilot Raghav gathered many
information from him and the places around Kullu and Manali Now a plan
was ready for him
Pooja was interested in peeping out of the window.. Thank god the flight has
windows which are sealed.. Or else she would have let her head out float on
the air she seemed so childish to Raghav.. I must ask her about Suraj as
soon as I reach Manali He thought It seemed to be a safe journey until
that unexpected event occurred.
**************************************
Javeed came out of the public toilet the man standing out was burning in
rage
what were you doing till now ??? the man was shouting at Javeed
dont you know what would a person do in a toilet ??? Javeed scowled..
I heard some voice.. Let me check you and he checked his pockets and
even socks there was no sign of cell phone thanks to the ultra slim model
of nokia , the cell was resting safe under his feet inside his shoes Its a great
advantage in nokia , even if you ride your bicycle on it , still it will work..
Feeling depressed the man pulled javeed
come lets go
After few minutes of walk they were inside a park It was less crowded and
there were people leaving that place in jogging dress perfect place !!! after 7
Mumbai parks would be deserted.. People will rush to their work after their
regular exercises
Javeed was waiting very anxiously .. he often searched around for the image
of her sweet wife And he also rehearsed what he should talk with Suraj.. A
small mistake would put all their lives at stake..
But to his surprise he found Shyam standing there He was one among them
who was very clever and a technical expert Shyam showed his thumbs up
and pretended as if he is doing exercise.. Javeed felt very relieved after
sensing his group around...
After a couple of minutes Javeed found Suraj entering the park along with 10
other men
Why has he brought 10 people along with him??? But Zara was missing
where is Zara ??? this was the first question Javeed asked Suraj
Oh missing your wife kya ??? she is inside that red car And he pointed a
car.. there was Zara unconscious inside the car..
You @!%%@#^ !! what have you done to my wife
chill.. now you can take your wife Tell me who is he ???
You have to believe me.. I dont know his name and where he hails from.. I
have seen him twice.. I have his mobile number.. but he often changes his sim
card.. Each time I help him in rescuing a girl he pays me for that Thats all I
know Please leave us.. Javeed was literally crying
Hey stop crying.. I hate men crying Now make a call to him and ask him
to come here Suraj ordered him
He will be in kul.. Ufff Nothing javeed pretended as if by mistake he
has let the word out..
you said kullu right Say or else I will kill you and your wife.. my men are
armed Javeed knew that too.. They normally have loaded pistols with
them and that was the reason Raghav offered him a pistol..
Please dont.. Yeah he is in kullu manali now he will be there for a week..
But I swear I dont know anything other than that
Do you have his photograph???
no
K come lets start to manali I must kill him Suraj was exhilarated..
what about my wife..??? Javeed looked at suraj..
She will be safe here
How can I believe you.. If you bring her to manali with us I will come..
Orelse kill us both here.. I wont leave her alone in these @%!%#% hands
@#%% !!! Fine.. She will come with us.. Lets start
And they all got inside a car.. Javeed was seated near her wife and there
were 2 more cars following them Now they all started to manali by car
Am finally gonna find the mastermind !!! Suraj was bewildered I wont kill him
there.. Many agents like me in India needs his life badly.. I will bargain to all for a bigger
pay and kill him after I receive the payment Suraj was silently calculating the million
bucks he his gonna get for a single life
How many hours will it take to reach Manali ??? Suraj questioned the driver..
2 days saahab
what ???
Shitt !!! How did I missed the fact that Kullu is in next state !!!
Hey Go to airport !! Suraj ordered the driver
Mumbai airport was crowded as usual.. Its hard to get a ticket without booking online..
but Suraj needed tickets to Manali badly and he was ready to pay anything for that.. But
the flights were heavily booked.. He needed 20 flights ticketsfinally Suraj was able to
crack 10 tickets but the flight for the next day.. He asked others to start now for manali
and he waited with Javeed ,Zara and 7 other men for next day flight
Now Raghav can have a day with his wife Javeed smiled.
Now take the car to our place We shall start early morning tomorrow Suraj
bellowed at the driver
******************************
The flight was moving smooth
We will reach Buntur airport in an hour the old pilot smiled
Meanwhile the mist was little less now I was able to view the serene beauty of the
snow cladded mountains of the Great Himalayas Our flight looked like a small
Gulliver in the land of Brobdingnag while the great Himalayas stood with pride of a
King
(Note : Brobdingnag is an imaginary place coted in Gullivers travels book.. The people
of Brobdingnag are described as giants who are as tall as a church steeple and whose
stride is ten yards.)
I wished these flights have windows which are not sealed. I could peep out of the
window and have a better look of the land Raghav was discussing something to the
uncle and I found more interesting to view out At an height of 4300 ft above the sea
level I was quite a lot thrilled . But suddenly I felt a strict nausea and a feeling of
vomiting. I felt my concentration getting scattered and everything started to fade in
front of my eyes
Oh god am I gonna die soon????
I was feeling hard to breathe
Ra ga am not. I was not able to speak properly. Then everything seemed to be
blank
Hey Pooja what happened . ??? come on open your eyes Raghav was
perturbed..
your husband cried Pooja when you were about to get unconscious and dont look at
the window again you will get the flight sickeness back and there is nothing to
worry ,.. It happens to girls.. and the uncle was going on uttering something
But my mind was reverberating the same sentence.. Your Husband Cried Pooja
Raghav cried for me ??? and he has asked to change the seat for my health ????
I was not able to believe what was happening around . Raghav is worried about me.
but uncle why shouldnt I look out ??? I want to clarify my doubt..
the nausea and the breathing problem you got is due to height If you look out the
brain neurons will sense the height again and you may get the problem again.. Its better
you close your eyes or look at a constant article inside the flight
oh k . Thanks uncle
Raghav seemed disinterested in our speech and he was looking outside Let me check
if he is really bothered about me
And I started bend my head slightly towards the window so that Raghav could easily
recognize that am trying to watch out
are you mad Pooja ??? Close your eyes I said he nearly shouted
Whats your problem Raghav Wat if I watch outside ??? I was actually in a mood
to fight with him
you Stupid woman.do you consider yourself as the most healthiest woman in the
world ??? Look If you become unconscious I cant break my head again So better
you forget the idea of peeping at the window now just shut up and sleep..
how rude !! but still it was a good feel to know a person shows immense care on
you. Well immense care would sound like exaggerating but the Great Raghav has
shed tears for me !!!
I didnt reply anything to him and I lied on the seat with my eyes closed
After few minutes Raghav woke up me
Hey Pooja Just have a glance Its Rahala falls. and he pointed out at the
window there was at a long distance a magnificent falls .. It looked like as if its falling
from the sky
Its amazing I smiled at him
enough .. now return back to your place. now I sensed I was leaning on him and
peeping out
sorry. I alleged and recommenced my seat back
There was silence between us for a while
so how are you feeling now ??? Raghav asked
Ummm.. Ya better
fine we will land soon
Raghav. I dont know why I called him.
Wat ???
Thanks. My eyes were glancing the ground when I said thanks
Why do you blush now ??? Raghav taunted me with a bizarre look
What ??? who said am blushing??? And by the way why should I blush ??? I said
thanks for taking care of my health
whatever tighten your seat beat we will land soon
And it was a smooth landing. The airport was completely different one It was
amidst the taller peeks and I soon we got down the airport I felt as if am placed in a
freezer we bid good bye to the uncle and moved towards the airport entrance
There was a car waiting for us and the driver of the car enquired us.
are you Mr and Mrs. Raghav ???
Yeah !! Raghav answered him
am Patel.. Your guide for next 7 days.. Please get inside the car
fine.. Pooja.. get inside Wait I have to make some important calls.
I got inside the car meanwhile the driver was loading our luggage inside the car..
************************************************
Raghav was dialing shyams number.
Come on pick up man He was very anxious.
Shyam picked up in the fifth ring
hey Raghav here.. Is everything fine there ??? have you guys started to manali???
no Raghav.. Its season time.. So suraj didnt find tickets for todays flight but he has
sent some of his men to manali by car Ralston and Aejaz have went behind those
men And Suraj has booked 10 tickets for tomorrows flight.. it starts at 10 AM and
somehow we got 3 tickets in the same flight. Myself Nithya and Guru will be in flight
with them

suraj has taken them to their place.. sheela is with them They are safe now
Then fine but be around surajs place And you guys be careful k Be in touch
so what should we do next ???
I will let you guys know
fine
And ragahv disconnected the call.. Meanwhile Raghavs mom called him and Raghav
and pooja had a short talk with her. The car was gliding on the smooth road There
was mist everywhere and the trees were very fresh around. The car stopped before a
cottage which had its name DREAM VALLEY COTTAGE
Well actually it looked like a dream .
To be continued
Current Mood:
frustrated
have that magnificent few.. River Beas was flowing in a varying speed on the greasy
small rocks and on small aquatic plants which were twirling along the river flow the
river was damn white Guess Pollution control board is working at full swing on that
river.
This river has its origination from the Rohtang Pass sir It was also one of the rivers
which created problem in Alexander's invasion towards Bharat .His trooped mutinied
here in 326 BCE, refusing to go any further.. they had been away from home for 8 years.
Alexander shut himself in his tent for three days, but when his men did not change their
desires he gave in the decision sir. It is the most beautiful river one could ever see in
their life time.. At least in my life it is the most beautiful one He smiled.
So Patel is Kullu manali your native ??? Raghav queried him...
Oh yeah sahaab and am working as tourist guide for the past 20 years I know
every bit of places in this circle Sir now u can refresh yourself .. Our room service will
contact you soon for the lunch menu and he took us back to the cottage
Do you want to go out today or do you want to take rest and start tomorrow
We want to take rest.. Me and Raghav said in a single articulation at the very same
time
Patel smiled and he opened the door of the cottage and handed the key to us
you can call 500 for room service mam and there is the food menu inside you can
order anything and I assure you that the food will be served in half an hour You can
eat either come to our restaurant nearby and have or we will make arrangements under
this umbrella and there was a white umbrella in front of our cottage.. there was a
wooden table amidst four wooden chairs we had a clear picturesque of the himalayan
mountains from here.
Mostly honeymoon couples prefer this place for dining he giggled.
It was a very bad joke for me and Raghav
We will call you later.. Now u can leave Raghav frowned at Patel and we went
inside the cottage
It was a wooden cottage there was a small living room at the entrance which had
very high ceilings It had marvelous interior decoration with paintings hanging
around the room. There was a couch amidst the room and there was Television at the
corner . Next was the boudoir which was little darker than the living room.. Raghav
switched on the light and we were stunned on seeing the room It looked like a fivestar hotel room with a costly wooden cot in the middle and there were 2 bamboo chairs
and a wardrobe made of wood was placed near the cot There was a single crystal
Chandelier hanging at the middle of the room and there were mini pendants hanging at
the corners of the room which illuminated the room in a more elegant way that
ambient lighting and the fire place at one corner gave a magical touch I was
completely mesmerized by its beauty
Hmmm Now am tired.. Let me rest on this cot before Raghav occupies the bed.
When I was about to move Raghav jumped on the bed and slouched like a small boy
uffff!! When I want to take rest he jumps on the bed !! Awesome I was frustrated .
Mr.Raghav I want to take rest I stood near the cot and raised my voice towards
him
carry on why do you ask permission like a school girl??? he grinned
very funny Get up .. I need to rest I frowned at him..
This time he pulled the blanket on him and pretended to sleep more comfortably....
Mr.Raghav I said I want to take rest will you please vacate the bed for a while ???
Mrs.Pooja Its not only you who have travelled even a man accompanied you and
even he is tired.. So you better use the couch now get out Raghav imitated my
voice and slang How rude !!! I felt an adrenaline rush in my blood.. It was very cold
outside .. This room was quite warm because of the fireplace nearby
Better to bring the couch inside and sleep than arguing with this heartless chap
I called the room service and asked them to shift the couch
why do you want to shift the couch inside mam ??? the room service man
enquired
Vaastu problem
Pardon mam
Ummmmm nothing.. shift the couch..
Well it was done in few minutes and Raghav didnt bother wats happening inside He
was in deep sleep ..
Wat shall we arrange for lunch mam??? The room service man asked..
No thanks we are not hungry now.. we need rest.. will call for dinner and he
left I was very tired and was sleepy indeed I was lost in my dreams soon when I
woke up it was actually late.. the time was 10.30 PM Raghav was not there in the
room.
Till that time I never knew I would miss Raghav so much I never knew It would be
the most horrible night I ever had
********************************************************
Few hours before An apartment in Mumbai..
We were locked inside a room and 2 other men were along with us inside for security
issues..Suraj doesnt want to let me and zara to escape and let out the duck which would
lay golden eggs soon
Zara got her consciousness back and she was feeling hard to breathe for a while
Seeing me She felt overwhelmed..
I missed you this was the first sentence she uttered .
I missed you too.. How are you feeling now..?? I was worried about her If she
All laughed and they continued their match I slept peacefully holding my wifes
hand
*************************************
10.30 PM in Manali
Pooja woke up and felt drowsy still
Hmmmmm I felt more sleepy but felt very hungry too It was 10.30..
Oh my god !! Had I slept sooo long !!! Again Raghav will start bantering me that I have
slept much and am good for nothing. Why this always happens with me ??? I felt
angry on myself and slid from the couch
Raghav was missing I checked the restroom and the living room too.. No he was not
there. I came out of my cottage It was freezing badly and it was drizzling I single
light was lighten on the umbrella before and the nearby cottages were locked.
I was not able to find a single human nearby
I went inside and dialed room service
Hello room service. Am Pooja Raghav.. cottage number.. hmmm 51
Yes madam.,, your dinner is ready will arrive your room in 10 minutes
dinner ready !!! fine did you saw my husband ???
yeah mam just now he gave order and went towards the gate.
Gate??? In this time!!!
fine thanks
There is something weird about Raghav I immediately grabbed the umbrella nearby
and wrapped myself in a shawl. Raghav was moving swiftly somewhere I followed
him silently back
Suddenly someone caught hold of my shoulder back
@!$$@ !!! I shouldnt have come out !!! It was the biggest mistake !!!
To be continued.
at far ends which were spreading meager light around It was deadly silent and
Raghav was walking down the slopes down towards the main road and he was in a
call.
I was silently following him and all of a sudden someone caught hold of my shoulder
Jesus !!! I was shuddered by the sudden jerk..
am sorry mam did you saw a tall man in red shirt over here he is my husband and
he is missing .. a woman in her mid-twenties was standing near me She looked very
worried her voice was in a hushed tone..
Why do all husbands vanish at night???
No I didnt see anyone like that .. even I was searching my husband and finally see
he is there and I pointed Raghav
Lucky you. Am searching him for the past one hour kahin tho diktha nahi vo
She gave a frustrated look
Sorry I dont know hindi
Oh I mean he is not anyway here You know what this place has that kind of lodges
nearby Take care of your husband k Be strict If not they will cheat us easily am
saying this for your welfare k catch you later.. I have to trace my husband bye
and that lady went along the dark road nearby
That Kind of Lodges !!! And Raghav is secretly going somewhere. Let me find to
which place he is going If I find him in any filthy lodge I will exterminate him into
pieces By the way dont think am possessive on him I hate such behavior from any
man.
Raghav was moving swiftly on the highways It was snowing heavily now God !!! If
this snowing continues I will die here soon But after all am a detective now secretly
spying my husband Monsoons wont act as barrier to great detectives By regaining
the dwindling confidence of mine I silently followed him.. The road was very slippery
and there were ice cubes scattered on the road which acted as a great barriers for my
investigation. I had to be very cautious and each time when Raghav turned and
looked back I managed to hide myself behind the some tree nearby thanks to Manali
Corporation there were trees all along the way And I managed to maintain a
respectable distance from Raghav so that he cant hear my footsteps.
Ufff !! I had walked for 15 minutes now and the road seems to have no end. Raghav
stopped near a milestone and waved his mobile phone. Is he giving signal??? Or is
this a signal to call a girl Holy Shit!!!
And exactly after 56 secs a car stopped before Raghav and a girl got down from the
car. Well if that girl was bad to look I would have not bothered She was good
actually very good But not more beautiful than me but yeah she was hot in that
mini skirt , skinny socks covering her legs below her knee and her red top she was
wearing a white puffy muffler which looked like an elongated Pomeranian dog, covered
her neck Why does she needs a muffler to cover her neck ???
Raghav and that girl gave a firm hand shake and Raghav was smiling at her showing all
his teeth I have never seen Raghav smiling like this then they both got inside the car
and it glided like a newly wedded bride on the snowy path.
Oh my god !! I dont have a car or bike And since the climate was worse no one dared
to come out Please god let me find some vehicle!!! After all I dont want this 15
minutes walk in the deliberating climate to go waste
Wow !!! God has finally answered my prayers I saw a car passing on the way.
Lift please I waved my hand .. the car stopped with a screech
There was a family inside the car A man in late thirties , a woman in her late twenties
and two kids back.
Sir can you please follow the car which is going before Am a CID officer sorry I
dont have Id card with me I showed my temptation in my face clearly
Yeah please mam.. Get in.
The road was almost deserted and tracking the only car before us was not such a big
deal The car stopped before a lodging house. Blue moon Hotels And it was
amazingly big and had a stylish entrance. I thanked the family in an official way and
rushed to the lobby of the hotel
Inside Raghav and that girl was seated on a couch and there was another man who sat
near them in another couch opposite they were discussing something very secretly
There were some other foreigners who were scattered around the place .. The lobby was
elegantly lightened with interior lights and the fireplace inside the room spread
warmth
I glided silently inside the room along with a foreigner and occupied the couch nearby
Raghav so that I could hear their conversation Raghav n his team were keenly
discussing something that they missed to notice me being seated at their back
Thats very kind of you Mr. James. So which room is that??? It was Raghav.
Evanjelin will show you Miss can you guide him???
Yeah sure So Raghav shall we ???? Her voice sounded as if she has mixed honey in
her vocal cord
And Raghav and that so called Evanjelin got into the lift. Before I could get up from
the place the lift closed Now how can I track them????
I asked a man nearby Sir How many floors does this building has???
9 floors 4 wings.
watttt ????? hmmmm Thats pretty hugeeeee. Thanks. I tried to hide my
anxiety.
Now I have got 9*4 = 36 options to try with. I tried in each floor and I was not able to
track anything. Uffff !! why these corridors are so long ?????
After one and a half hours of search a security caught me
Excuse me mam.. we found you wandering here restlessly Can I help you mam ???
No please am playing hide and seek with my husband So I showed all my
teeth to him
Ha ha I understand and he left
By the time I started to move to the next floor I heard familiar voice of Raghav
Thanks a lot Evanjelin You are such a wonderful person Without you I would have
struggled inside. It was Raghav
Its my pleasure Raghav after all I can add in my resume that I had been of use by a
great person for some time.
Been of Use !! shameless woman !!! I was boiling in rage !!!
Great !! Its nothing without all you guys support I could do nothing K Evanjelin
take rest will pick you early morning to airport good night
And he went downstairs.
Now Its obvious that Raghav is such a horrible b^$%@#$@ !!! I will teach him a lesson
when he comes to cottage back.. and I went to back to lobby again this is 20th time am
getting down to lobby since I checked often If Raghav has left or not. By the time I
reached the entrance a strong hand caught hold of my wrist Now who is searching
her husband again???
Well It was Raghav. His eyes were red in fury.
What are you doing here Pooja ??? each word was like a sharp sword
I must ask this what are you doing here??? Even my words were sharp
Get inside the car I dont want people to have a free movie show here.. And he
nearly pushed me inside the car
We were both silent for few seconds till the car left the hotel
Dont say you were spying me. Raghav threw an angry look on me
I was. This time I was very bold after all he has done all the mistake.. Why
should I be sorry..??
@$#$ !!! what do you think about yourself Pooja???? You are disgusting !!! he
frowned
Even you are disgusting And understand one thing Raghav Being a man is not a
license to do all the mistakes . Its not even a mistake its a sin @#%%^^B@ I was
gasping for breathe
He stopped the car in the midway and turned towards me
what the #%%* !!! Now can you tell me what was so called sin I committed ?? He
looked insane
So Mr.Raghav you dont even know what I am talking about ??? Or do you need to
extract the exact sin which am talking about from a huge database of your sins.??
You are mad You are totally mad My mom has chosen the most insane girl in this
world as my wife @#$% !!! He raised the accelerator of the car And he raced the
Yes sir From the terrace of our hotel you can clearly see Hadimba temple and durga
temple.. I will take you for special arathi there sir.
Then fine We are eight people we need a single suite to stay Suraj retorted
eight people in single suite is not allowed sir.. Can you please book 2 suites.. I will be
happy Evanjelin threw a naughty look on suraj
Yeah sweetie.. anything for you
thanks a lot sir You have made my day
And they all got into 2 cars and left the airport I was bewildered.. Javeed has struck in
a great problem I must help him some way So I started to follow the car.
**********************************************
Blue Moon hotel.
Evanjelin showed the suite to suraj..
This is one of the prestigious suite of our hotel sir Our chief minister often uses this
suite whenever he comes to Manali.. It is highly secured.. She gave a fake smile at
Suraj..
This is awesome
4 of them can stay here.. Other 4 please follow me and Evanjelin went elegantly out
the room..
The men were staring at suraj for his approval
just 3 of you go Atleast 3 must ne here to guard these romantic couples.. after all I
dont know where they have hidden another mobile .. and suraj threw an angry look
on Javeed Zara was still in a shock.. she wasnt able to digest the fact that his husband
was beaten like a dog yesterday night. Both of them sat on the couch nearby and two
men with pistols were near them
Then everything happened according to the plan.. Evanjelin took suraj out for signing
some papers and Nithya came for asking address
Meanwhile Raghav and Aejaz glided into the wardrobe carefully
Raghav took out his so called encrypted gun
That was the gun used for sedating animals.. It carried a needle at the end A silent
shot will sedate anyone for days.. Raghav has reduced the doze since he is going to use
that for humans And he handed another gun to Aejaz
By the time these men said the way and entered the room Raghav and Aejaz pulled the
trigger when suraj entered the room he was literally in shock
His men were unconscious and his hostage were missing
@!$$ !!!! This is the worst day !!! and he bashed out of the room to check where these
See I have packed all your clothesThe tablets are on the front zip in the blue bag
Dont forget to have thatGet an international sim soon at London and send your
number And when you are online gimme a missed call.. Me and dad will join you in
video conferencing And have food in Indian hotels k And Javeed will pick you up
in the airport.. He has went there a week before And dont forget to thanks Humaira
aunty. and My mom is giving the same lecture for the 22nd time
Mom Please am not a kid I can manage even if so called Javeed is not there
remember your son is going to do M.S in Multimedia and Human Interaction In Great
University of Westminster
Now you would have understood why am here at Chennai airport Am Raghav an
engineering graduate who is gonna pursue my higher studies at London, Westminster
University Its my childhood dream to do MS in Multimedia and give a better form to
my dads business And Its gonna be true soon.
And this so called Javeed is my mom friends son Very intelligent guy from IIT
Kanpur and am gonna be his roomie for another 2 years till I get my Masters. Well
basically I hate this guy Javeed
I have never seen him and dont think am jealous of his intelligence and have started
hating him More over an IIT graduate from Chennai never feels jealous on another
IITian The only reason for my hatred is he is a North Indian. Please dont assume
yourself that am a racist . Well I had always a problem in Hindi.. And I have noticed
these people from North always prefer Hindi And being a typical south Indian guy I
know nothing in hindi other than Kuch Kuch hota hai.. Well with this proficiency in
Hindi I dont want such a roomie but what to say it is my fate that am gonna be with
him.
There was an announcement in the airport Dear Passengers, the flight to London will
arrive in another 10 minutes
Another 10 minutes??? Well I was waiting for my terror friends. I know they are
always late and the reason for their late entry was Sheila.
We are a gang of 6 friends.. Myself the IITian , Ralston upcoming journalist, Sheila
upcoming killer doctor, Nithya- beauty conscious girl doing her engineering , Aejaz
good for nothing but goes behind girls and he does a part time job of studying
engineering and finally Shyam - computer genius still struggling to finish his twelfth
standard
We are all school mates and right from our 6th standard you cant find any of us alone in
any parties May be college separated us but still we were on touch.,, And now when it
was 5 minutes left for me to board the flight my friends rushed towards me.
thank god the flight hasnt left So air hostess didnt board the flight right ??? It was
Shyam who winked at me.. He was grasping for breathe
hey has the air hostess left ??? Aejaz was racing towards us and about to hit me.
You idiots So you guys are bothered about airhostess.. Not me ??? I gave an angry
look on them.
Well Raghav we are seeing you from our 5th std Nothing special in you man But
these beauties. hmmmm Ralston threw his look all around the airport
You are all good for nothing am gonna leave bye I lifted my suitcase
Hey dont care about them.. so is all the packing ready??? It was Sheila..
Yeah Sheila hey guys its getting late.. I have to board the flight Keep in touch ..
Orelse I will kill you I threatened them in a funny tone.
Hey Raghav dont forget that man It was Aejaz.
What???? I know what he meant but pulling words from his mouth is always our
favorite play
what what ??? Hey dont forget to send us numbers of hot foreign figures and that is
the only reason we are allowing you to go to London Ralston shouted
well let me try If am not busy
Before my friends could raise their hands towards me I rushed inside the security
check
Bye mom Bye dad.. Hey guys byeeeeeeeeee Miss you all.. stay in touch idiots
I screamed until their images faded.
Well am gonna miss them all badly
London Dream city for all !!! And it was colourful indeed. Well at an age of 22 ,
Colorful for guys had only meaning- Girls And I mean it London is unquestionably
colorful !!!
Javeed was waiting for me with a board on hand Mr.Raghav, Chennai .. On the very
first glimpse Javeed looked like a cartoon character to me He has spikes on his head
and his hair was almost red in color he looked as if he had escaped from a rock band
club . So this half boiled man is gonna be my roomie???? It was hard for me to digest
that he hailed from IIT.
I went straight to him and forwarded my hand for an handshake
Hey hi.. Am Raghav. I smiled at him
hi ???Bharathian ho yaar Namaste bolo .. (Being a Indian , say Namaste !!! ) And
he hugged me
I was quite captivated by the word bharathian. It really feels great to meet our fellow
countrymen accompany us in foreign But other than that word I was not able to grasp
what was he saying.
I dont know hindi Well I was not even sure whether he was speaking hindi It
might be Marathi Gujarathi or whatever
k fine.. no harm.. I will teach you He smiled.
Teach me ??? When did I said I want to learn hindi ??? Well my hindi teacher broke her
head for nearly 6 years .. and after thrown into the heights of frustration, she left the
idea of Hindi to Raghav
And then time passed by.. Javeed was actually a good roomieHe became my close
friend very soon we had similar tastes in all , except food and literary knowledge
we came to a gentleman agreement that no hindi or no tamil between us.. So english
was the only official language allowed in our room
Eeverything was going fine till I met her.. she was Meha
Every love story has a quite interesting first meet. People do fall in Love to their
seniors juniors or sometimes lecturers of their college. Sometimes Love happens when
you see a hot girl playing with a puppy or sitting alone in a restaurant.. sometimes It
happens on own friends Mine was a very different one Well my love started with a
penalty of 100 pounds ....
It was Sunday Javeed was sincerely watching a movie in star plus
What movie dude ??? I asked Javeed
DDLJ He smiled
what??? I arced my eyebrows
Dilwaale Dulhaniya Le jaayenge.. He gave a pride look
watt ??? DDLJ was better I frowned at him
And there was a song in that movie where sharukkhan and Kajol will get drunk and
dance . I dono what happened inside Javeed at that moment that he raised the TV
volume and started dancing on the cot.. well actually he was jumping.
Javeed Are you mad??? Already Mrs.Clarkes has warned us not to increase the
volume She will lodge a complain if you do again Now reduce it u @#$$%%2 I
was shouting at him But Javeed did gave heed to my words and was in an excited
state TV remote was with him.. so I tried manually on the TV buttons.. But my bad
luck the channel was switched to Sun TV.
There was a dappaangutthu (peppy ) song been telecasted Hey aatthaa aatoramaa
vaariya was that song.. Being a tamilan I couldnt resist myself that I too started
dancing with Javeed in that high volume
And now we are here in London Court waiting for a hearing for a case against us for
disturbing our neighbours Mrs.Clarkes through an angry look on us. She had some
medical documents with us..
Guess she is gonna point us for her heart attack.. Javeed whispered
Oh shut up javeed Its all because of you. If you had lowered the volume we would
have not been pushed to this
Me???? Hey remember you were the one who changed the channel and danced for that
aatha song He moped..
See just say we didnt do anything on that day Let them tell we were in our
university campus preparing for our project I gave him hints about what should we
talk. And we both planned the lies which we are gonna utter in the hearing. I never
thought I will struggle for each word at that time
The hearing started And a lawyer from Mrs.Clarkes came forward us
I was not able to take my eyes from her She was stunning.. Amazingly beautiful.
She had left her hair loose and there was no sign of makeup on her face.. her wheatish
skin glowed on court lights. She was wearing a black coat and a black jeans. She
had quite big eyes and there was a default smile on her face.
And the hearing begun.
so Mr.Raghav and Mr.Javeed My petitioner Mrs.clarkes says that you have disturbed
her sleep by keeping high volume and that has given mental trauma to her. So do you
guys accept it that you have irritated her by doing so??? She looked at me
Awww !!! She is looking me!!! I felt as if an angel is looking at me with a wand in her
hand ready to grant me any wish. I just wanna jump in joy I just smiled at her
return Well actually I was smiling since the time I saw her
Mr. Raghav.. Am asking a question did you disturb Mrs.Clarkes??? She questioned
me again
Well whatever she talked was like a music to me.and I was not bothered about the
lyrics.
no we didnt Mrs.clarkes has personal rivalry on us.. so he has failed a false
petition.. It was Javeed.
Hey man talk something.. You can look at the girl later.. Javeed alleged in my
ears
Mr.Javeed I want answer from your friend He is the main allege So Mr.Raghav
do you accept it ??? She looked into my eyes deeply
Well It sounded to me like Dear Raghav will you accept me ???
Yeah dear.. I accept I uttered these words wit so much of enthusiasm that the whole
crowd in court started laughing. Javeed was looking at me as if he is gonna murder
me soon
Well all is fair in love and we paid a fine of 100 pounds....
*************************************
Days were running. I somehow got the information of her. Her name was Meha
Junior lawyer in London court.. And she took this case as his senior was busy on
another case..
Now the second step in love is I have to impress her Make such a situation that she
can spend time with me Its a hard thing you know.. If the girl is a doctor you have to
be a patient.. If she is a teacher you have to be a student or you should at least be an
uncle for her student And now my girl is a lawyer so no ways left.. I have to be a
criminal.. :p
in our legs we can go for baring the weight of a nation And dont think am
unpatriotic.. Leaning something from other country and trying to implement in our
nation is my dream and yeah that previous so called sentence that I ll stay here for a
girl was just to flirt with you.. Understand ?? I talked with such a josh that it looked
like a politician arming against his rival party..
She looked motionless Before she could utter another word I continued
And Miss.Meha.. I know better about the poverty in my country since I was there for
previous 22 years.. And am surprised that UK based Indian Lawyer is feeling pity for
the country she left.. and yeah!! I made a counterpart against her
Just shut up k..??? dont ever use the word I left my country Am here for a noble
work shit !! She looked highly tempered and bite her lips as if she has said
something which I must have not heard
Noble work?? I looked her with surprise..
I have to go.. She immediately stood from the table , took her handbag and hurried
out of the hotel..
Hey wait.. I started to go behind her.. But she vanished in the London crowd before I
could catch her
holy s@## !! I must have not let her go What was the noble cause she was talking
about?? I was completely clueless
Your dinner is ready sir.. The waiter brought beautifully decorated utensils and kept
on my table
Bring the bill and I left the table without even touching the dishes
It was an unforgettable date !!
After that gruesome experience with Meha , I came more interested in her I went to
her office often but I was not able to find her there in court I once went to the hotel
where she was staying but got a message that she has vacated the room Meha seemed
to be clueless Many people in the court said they never know her Only few said
that she is a new joinee from India .. Hardly I was able to find any other details about
her
But I never thought that I will meet her with a gun on my forehead..
It was a usual Sunday.. Me and Javeed planned for a trip to Camber Sands near Kent.. It
is a famous beach near London and it is considered to be the best beach for sun
bathing Well I have missed sun bathing very much .. So after long discussion with
Javeed ,we booked a car and since I owned an international License I drove the car on
the clean roads of London to Camber sands..
talkie I was able to see her tensed face from the rare view mirror.. And something
clicked inside me..
I have seen this kind of walkie-talkie used by London Police Is she a Police??? She
must be.. and she has guns in her hands Yeah she must be a police and am here
helping London Police for chasing a criminal
I can save this moment for my future resume.. With heights of embellishment I started
to race the car with more speed It was thrilling indeed And after few minutes I was
quite ahead of the jeep which I was following and parked my car exactly before that
jeep
When I got down my car I realized that I have blocked a jeep of London Police Me
and Javeed stood motionless and before we could gain our consciousness back we heard
six gun shots in minute
Now who has shot who ????
Hey Raghav.. come lets move Javeed pulled me to the car..
Hey Meha ..
shut up Raghav this is something serious.. come lets move Javeeds voice
trembled..
But nothing was important for me than Meha I had a strong urge that I should help
her and she cant be wrong Without giving heeds to Javeeds words I went near the
Police jeep
There 2 cops were lying dead inside and Meha was standing nearby like a monster with
guns in her hand.. And It was anonymous that she had shot the cops
It was unbelievable !!
Meha what have you done ?? I took steps further towards her
Stop there.. I will shoot you She pointed the gun towards me.
Hey relax See am here to help you.. before someone notices us here get inside the
car.. Please..
I dont know whether she believed me or not she put down her hands and said
Sheela come .. we are safe.. a girl who cant be more than 20 came out of the jeep.. Well
If I had been the Miss Universe judge , I would have selected Sheela to be the winner..
she was such an art
And they got inside the car
Now I must find a safe place for them.. I couldnt believe that am helping a murderer
but there was an instinct inside me that Meha cant be wrong ..
Have this.. Javeed offered a dry towel to those ladies
Thanks.. Drop us at Ashford Meha said..
Ashford??? Where will you go from there??? You will be caught.. After all you have
shot the cops I alleged..
they are not cops. Her voice was still..
To be continued
there was vigorous fight going on between our men and those gangsters , 2 kidnappers
slid the crowd with Sheela .. And I took a gun from my men and stopped your car.
Rest you guys know
But you were amazing Meha.. Very brave indeed But am surprisedWhat If they
had weapons with them??
Am a trained shooter Mr. Raghav more over the dress which I was wearing was
bullet-proof.. She smiled
Her smile was mesmerizing indeed
But they looked like cops.. Javeed interrupted
thats a cheap trick followed by these gangsters Normally Police vehicles are out of
suspect right ?? She exhausted,,,
yeah I nodded..
And dont worry guys this case wont be filed.. If my guess is right those gangsters
would have removed the dead bodied from that place And am damn sure they wont
file a case since they are main thieves And Javeed you can sleep peacefully She
smiled at Javeed
Hey no.. I know you girls are innocent.. He smirked..
Anyways thanks a lot and am sorry Sheela is in shock So she cant talk currently
Meha pleaded
thats not a big deal Meha Your thanks has made my day I smiled at her
And by the time we reached airport.
Meha and Sheela got down from the car Sheela looked pale from the time Raghav
saw her.. She is indeed in deep shock
Meha bid good bye to us and by the time she was about to enter the checking room ,
there was a serious of gun shots behind me
Damn!! Raghav and Javeed come behind us..
And we started to run on the runway in a sinusoidal manner Meanwhile some guards
surrounded us and I heard numerous guns shots and people yelling behind in pain.. It
was like a Hollywood movie How can an international airport lack security.. I was
bewildered
And I never knew when I got inside in that jet , in few minutes me, Javeed ,Meha and
Sheela were flying over London skyscrapers
****************************************************
Raghav can you please pass the water ??? It was Zara who brought me to reality
Yeah please and I offered the bottle of water to Zara
She drank some water and made Javeed to drink more she carefully wiped his
swollen face with a wet cloth Javeed was indeed very much injured
I have called for a doctor Zara.. He will come to our cottage soon I eased her
Ask him to come soon Raghav.. am worried.. and Javeed is bleeding she sobbed
Let me call and inform Pooja about our arrival and ask her to order some food for all
I tried Poojas number
This number is currently not reachable A computer recorded voice answered
Damn with these networks..
I dialed the cottage number and ordered them the lunch menu
Yeah k sahaab.. the lunch will be ready in an hour
Hour?? I need in another 15 minutes Keep the lunch in my room My wife will be
there.. I shouted at them
Yeah k sahaab but your wife left the room in morning the key is with us.. He
stammered
what ??? she left?? Fine I will come there I disconnected the call
Where did She go ?? I felt my heart beat getting worse
Something is gonna happen bad.
*************************************************************
Pooja was peeping into the hotel Lobby
Javeed and Suraj entered this building ,,, But where are they ?? I must warn Javeed
about the danger Pooja thought..
But the Lobby seemed to be a stranger land for her None of the faces were similar
even the hotel mangers seat was occupied by a anew man
Now whom can I contact for help ??? Its better that I dont try checking all the floors
again since this hotel is damn big Pooja was provoked in her own thoughts
Meanwhile a man who could be in his late fifties approached her
Mrs Pooja.. he called her..
Yeah.. She turned towards that man
Mr.Raghav is waiting in his car.. He asked you to come there.. and he pointed a white
Innova car..
So finally Raghav has found me !! Now I should make myself ready to face his
reaction By the way am gonna tell him what all happened to me and ask him to help
me to warn Javeed
With thousands of expectations she hurried towards the car
Before she could realize It was Suraj , she was pulled into the car and a bulk of clothes
was inserted in her mouth.
Take the car to our cottage.. Suraj ordered the driver
Suraj.. what are we gonna do with this girl?? Do you think She will help us to find the
man we are searching for ?? One of the men in the car questioned
No.. but this females husband is a millionaire after all few million bucks in our
account wont hurt us.. Suraj burst into laughter
To be continued
I smiled at her
Actually we expected a smile and gratitude in her face in return.. But her face became
pink in rage she was totally in excited state and her eyes were like hot iron rod
getting ready to tear our lungs apart
So you were the b@#$##$ who have spoiled my life?? Happy??? She was screaming
from her bottom of her lungs
Spoiled ???? no mam.. I think you have mistaken.. We gave shelter for you and Meha
in our home and we drove you girls to airport.. And we did accompanied you till
Mumbai too.. Do you remember you and Meha got into your dads car and bid good bye
to us..?? Javeed said in a single flow.. I know was he was interested in Sheela , since the
time he saw her
Each time I go for a date with Meha , He used to remind me to ask about Sheela
My dad in Mumbai Holy S*** Do you know he is the main man involved in
Mumbai brothel ?? and you guys have helped that b@!$@# Meha to surrender me to that
man And you have helped her to escape from London cops And finally you guys
have spoiled my life she couldnt resist her tears after that .
what??? I arced my eye brows I couldnt believe my ears.. It was like no powercut
in Tamilnadu....
Sheela I think you are sick.. Meha is my girlfriend Stop talking non-sense about her..
I winced..
you guys are sick She is a lawyer cum criminal when I was about to tell about her
and her gang to London cops , you guys spoiled you stopped the car in which I was
escaping from that gang with London cops.. and after she shot you guys helped her to
take me from that place.. she was shouting in rage.
I was completely speechless hearing Sheelas words
Meha is the main culprit in kidnapping girls !!!.
The cops which she shot at London were real cops and we escaped in a private jet that
belonged to an international criminal gang !!!
And the most unbelievable part is that I have spoiled a girls life and am in Love with a
criminal !!
But you were silent we thought we were helping you It was Javeed.
have you heard of Zolpidem??? she looked at him
Zol.. no never.. Javeed said with hesitation
Its a drug used to depress the activity of central nervous system.. with less doze you
will know whats happening around but cant respond back and I was in that
sedation.. her voice was filled with frustration
Holy s*#% !!! I had acted like a fool How didnt I suspect that the girl whom we have
helped could be sedation!! Damn.
And do you know why she asked for sleeping in your home for a while ?? She looked
at me again
I was speechless another time..
that drug will make one person sleep soon And thats why she rushed to your room
and took me inside.. and when I got my conscious little back she injected me the drug
again and she used that time to fool the cops she was fighting to breathe
meanwhile
am sorry. But what about the airport we saw some cops there too they must
have arrested us.. atleast they might have informed Indian govt about it but nothing
happened Javeed posted his query
Those were not cops idiot.. they were from another gang and inorder to escape from
them she allowed you guys to enter the flight with her
But why does she wants to save us?? I looked at her.
See you guys are Indian students If something happens to you guys it would have
created even more headache to them.. thats why
And why did she loved me ??? I was feeling very bad at that minute
You are rich Raghav.. No girl will leave a duck that lays golden eggs.. Javeed
moped
And that was the second I started to hate Meha She pleaded me many times to forgive
her mistakesBut after all am not such soft-hearted to forgive a b!@#!# And that was
the moment I decided to never fall in Love again..
Normally a guy could face any failure in life But when it comes Love its really really
very hard to digest. And so I was I that love made me not to file a case against her..
With a last warning I left her.
But the sin of helping Meha was killing me inside And thats why I decided to help
innocent girls After all I dont want another Sheela in Mumbai And with her help I
started to rescue one or two girls at the beginning.. eventually my friends joined me..
and now we are a big gang with no name and am Its BOSS !!!!
This cottage is beautiful Raghav Zara brought me reality
It was really surprising that I have drove the car correctly to my cottage even after
having lost in my own thoughts
Yeah It is I smiled at her
The doctor was standing at the entrance of the cottage and he smiled at me.
The receptionist brought the key and handed it to me
Did you got any calls from my wife?? I queried her..
No sahaab..
did she said anything while she left the keys to you??
No sahaab But she asked me to call for a taxi.. And I did so
Can you give me the taxi number ??
Sure sahaab just a sec.. and she said a number to me
Thanks..
and sahaab.. This the key for another room which you requested yesterday She gave
me another key too..
Fine
And I left the reception followed by my friends
Another room was for Javeed and Zara.. After leaving them in that room and also
instructing the doctor to give best treatment , I left the cottage
Hey Raghav where is your wife ?? Shyam questioned me..
She might have gone for shopping.. You guys take rest in my room.. I handed the
keys to them and left that place
I tried Poojas number again It was switched off Damn Why the hell is her phone
switched off ??
Next I tried with the Taxi driver number.
Hello am calling from Dream valley cottage I tried to sound like cottage owner..
Yeah sahaab you want taxi now ?? I will come there in a minute.. His voice was
fishy..
No.. I have got a complaint on you.. Heard that you have looted the purse of a south
Indian lady who travelled in your car this morning.. my voice was very harsh..
no no sahaab.. I will never da such a work .. You know me I left that girl in airport
and returned back promise.. I didnt steal anything.. believe me sir.. He was about to
cry and I was able to identify the restlessness in his tone
k leave that I think that lady is insane bye.. and I disconnected the call
Pooja has left to airport !!! But why ??? I asked her not to leave the cottage till I return
back
I recalled all the events that happened yesterday.. Pooja followed me till hotel last night..
and she suspected me with Evanjelin If she had followed me today she must have to
came to hotel.. But she has left to airport that too after an hour I left the cottage
where She might have gone ??? I was left with no random guesses
Meanwhile I received call from Evanjelin
Hey Raghav Evanjelin here
Hey I will speak to you later.. I have some important work over here
Hey wait.. Its urgent Suraj has vacated the rooms
whats the big deal??? He will vacate obviously .. after all he has no work left here..
I sighed in frustration
but.. our security cameras at the gate has found a girl inside his car when he left
a girl ?? something sparked in my mind
hey wait I will come there in 5 minutes.. and I raced my car in the Manali road to
the hotel
And I was praying deep from my heart that It should not be Pooja.. But I know it will be
S%*# Its Pooja .. Raghav was stunned seeing the web cam video
Pooja?? Your wife ?? It was shyam
shyam how did you came here ?? I was surprised to see Shyam, Ralston, Nithya
there
Give them and get your wife back Raghav.. It was Evanjelin
Money is not a problem Evanjelin See they have kidnapped my wife from the hotel..
And suraj has wantedly disclosed her face in web cam did you notice that??? I asked
her..
Yeah.. so what.. ?
He wants our gang leader thats me to take that as a hint and reach him Even If I
give 20 lakhs to suraj am sure he wont leave Pooja.. He needs the man who is rescuing
girls understand ??
yeah.. now we understand Raghav.. why cant we take our men to rohtang pass and
rescue pooja ?? Shyam asked..
If my guess is right they must have hide her somewhere away.. We must find the place
first I exhaled..
So now what can we do ?? ? Nithya looked at me
Leave me alone for a while
And all left that place
I have go to meet them as her husband and similarly I have meet Suraj as a gang
leader.. This time I dont want my friends life to be at stake by sending someone else
what shall I do ????
After 10 minutes I called my friends back
I have got a plan.. I exclaimed and detailed my plan to them
Raghav you have gone mad!! shyam sighed
To be continued
do you think suraj will accept to meet you in Rohtang Pass before the scheduled
time?? shyam looked Raghav with a question
yeah he may.... Because now he have understood that am very wealthy since am
ready to pay anything he will definitely meet me before the scheduled time Raghav
grinned
Even if he meets you, are you sure that he will kidnap you too ???after all suraj has no
business with men.. Shyam winked
we will force him to take me with them but only If you come there on time.. Raghav
smiled..
I will but Raghav be careful k Shyam looked worried
Dont worry shyamGod will help us.. hey wait theres a call from those idiots..
Raghav moved out of the room
Hello Mr.Raghav It was Surajs voice Raghav recognized his voice in the very first
hello..
Raghav changed his voice and answered
hello.. who is this?? I wanna meet my wife Please dont harm her.. I will pay
anything for her.. you dont know how much I love her .. she is Raghav started to sob
in phone ..

any number of women useless fellow.. listen bring 50 lakhs cash and come to Rohtang
pass in half an hour my man will come and collect it once the money is received I

heck fine come to Rohtang pass in half an hour..One of my men will take you to
our place Look if we suspect a police or any guards around you, believe me you cant
see your wife back.. and he disconnected the call
he is on line.. Raghav smiled at Shyam
did he agree to take you to Poojas place??? Shyam widened his eyes in surprise
yeah but I know he wont take me there they might try snatching the money and
run away from that place.So shyam I need your help Raghav gave a cunning look..
I will be theremeet you soon at Rohtang pass shyam winked and left the place
******************************************
Ralston and Evanjelin were busily making calls.
what a man is he !! Evanjelin exhaled deeply thinking Raghav
The conversation she had with Raghav 20 minutes before was reverberating in her
mind..
Evanjelin trace Poojas number You can get help from Veena she is a specialist in
it Raghav said
But Raghav tracing Surajs number would be of more use Evanjelin said..
Its hard to trace Surajs number.. there are many privacy issues after all a gang
leader will have his own security matters tracing Poojas number would be easier
even If he tries to switch off the cell its already late, since we got call from that number
few minutes before.. find the place and try to collect the details of the cottages around
that place....
hmmm sure
den short list the cottages which are located in deserted area probably in
underdeveloped villages or forests kind and call all the receptions he said..
and you want me short list the list of cottages with greedy owners.???? Evanjelin
smirked..
Genius yaar he applauded
Evanjelin and Ralston.. take different vehicles be on the highways.after my
intimation follow us and make sure you maintain decent distance Raghav said..
sure Raghav be safe k Ralstons eyes narrowed..
I want you guys to be safe If you feel that something is wrong around just leave that
place. Understand?? Raghav veered..
Evanjelin the call has been made near villages of Guntur or nagger Veena said in
phone which brought Evanjelin to the reality..
Thanks a lot Veena.. Now I will take care She disconnected the call
Ralston it is from near the villages of Guntar and Nagger
Lets google it He smiled and got involved in the work
*******************************************************
Are you sure Raghav??? Nithya and Aejaz looked Raghav keen
Do I look like joking???Raghav smirked
If Suraj finds out he will kill you and me Nithya looked bewildered..
Only if he finds out.. come on Nithya I swear you wont get harm by any means
Moreever Aejaz will be around you.. No worries Raghav tried to console her..
Idiot.. am worried about you do you think you are a champion in ice skating??? A
single bullet will tear your lungs apart.. she was screaming indeed
That wont happen Nithya we have self defense Aejaz smiled
You guys have gone mad am worried Raghav be safe k She looked at Raghav..
Yeah my dear sis I will be fine guys be there at exact 6 pm Raghav grinned and
left the place
************************************************
Now I have 3 main calls left Raghav made himself ready for those calls any
words misplaced in these calls would put my life in misery he thought
He remembered his friends reaction when he said that
am gonna call Jayanthi IPS and confess that I helped Meha in shooting the cops
what???? Nithya exclaimed..
Stop joking Raghav.. It was Aejaz
You have gone mad guess you need a psychiatrist now.. shyam uttered
stop it guys I cant leave this situation continue suraj kidnapping our men and we
go behind him each time for rescuing as if we are jobless Suraj needs a lesson Meha
will be of great help in this..
she is a criminal already how come she help us to teach Suraj a lesson??? Evanjelin
arced her eyebrows..
She will Raghav smirked..
**********************************************
Raghav thumbed his android phone and selected the blocked numbers in his phone
There was one and only number in his blocked numbers..It was Meha
I never thought I will be forced to a situation such that I will unblock that @#$%^
number he mumbled.
After unblocking Raghav dialed her number after 3 rings she picked the call
See who is calling !!! her voice was creepy
The tone in which Meha replied irritated Raghav
I wanna meet you Meha Its urgent Raghavs voice was wobbly..
meet me??? Sorry my dear am married she said
oh come on I didn call you for romance do you remember the cops you shot in
London 4 years before ??
Its been years back..what now?? she queried. From her voice Raghav was clearly
able to identify that she is terrified by the topic
Interpol has foundI need to discuss about that shall we meet in half an hour???
Please god let she be in Mumbai Raghav was praying inside
am near zaveri bazaar how about Mustafa hotel at 4 pm??
perfect I will be there in another half an hour
Guess Suraj and his men are the only guest in this place there were no tourists
around, except gigantic men of suraj..
As he got down the car , Raghavs eyes was searching for Pooja and Evanjelin
They will be safe.. Raghav tried to console himself..
Those men took Raghav inside a room.. Suraj was watching television
suraj we have brought him he is not ready to give the cash a bald man said
Suraj turned his head towards him
There he saw Raghav standing nervously he was holding his bag tightly like a lkg
kid
I want to see my wife.. Raghav muttered
give the money first I will show your wife Suraj said..
here it is where is my wife? Raghav handed the bag to Suraj..
Come on man.. dont say that again..I want to see my wife Idiot.. hey take him to
Poojas room and lock him inside
Lock??? You cant do that you said you will leave me and my wife if you get the
money.. this is unfair Raghav screamed when his men pulled him to the room
inside
Mr.Raghav am not a priest to keep my word as you said already suraj laughed
No.. I will kill you @#$@#% Raghav kept screaming and he was pushed inside a
room and the door was locked
********************************
It was quite dark inside the room It took few minutes for Raghavs retina to get
adjusted to the sudden darkness..
When he was able to sense the surrounding , we found a cot at the corner of the room
there was a torn out dressing table nearby Raghav turned on the switch nearby.. a
zero watts bulb got its life and shredded meager light inside the room.. there was no
trace of Pooja or Evanjelin in that room
Damn!! Where are they ??
Raghav rolled his eyes around the room there were 2 chairs in a very bad condition , a
jug of water on one corner of the room but there was no sign of life inside the room
Hell !!! suraj has cheated me !!
With frustration Raghav kicked the cot heavily the cot moved a bit and Raghav found
two pairs of legs down the cot
He immediately moved the cot little bit and confirmed it was Pooja and Evanjelin lying
down the cot there was no sign of movement from them
@@$!#$%^$!!! They have sedated these ladies very badly
Raghav checked the time.. It was 4.30 PM
I have to be in Rohtang Pass by 6 PM They will start by 5.30 from here.. I have one
hour left
Raghav quickly removed his belt from pant and took 2 hidden medicine packets from
the belt buckles..
He mixed the medicine powder in the jar of water there must syringes here he
searched the table and the cot..
There was a used syringe on the dustbin..
Now I have to use this one but before that I have to sterilize this damn needle..
Raghav rushed to the washroom nearby there was strong stich of bad smell inside the
room.. he gave life to his cigarette lighter and searched around.. there was no bleaching
powder around.. bleaching powder is the best sterilizer
Damn!! I have to use someother way
He tore the toilet paper and carefully cleaned the needle and removed the stains.. then
Raghav brought the needle tip before the lighter fire after 3 secs , he then wiped the
needle in the clean toilet paper
Now its is almost sterilized he thought..
Then he injected the medicine to Pooja first and then Evanjelin
He pulled them to the vacant space so that they can breathe smoothly.
This medicine will take half an hour.. I must instruct them as soon as they wake up
Meanwhile Raghav tried to find a way to escape from that room to his surprise there
was no window in that room and even the attached toilet was sealed Unless these
people open the door there is no way to get out
After 20 minutes ,Raghav sensed some motion in Evanjelin
whats happening here Evanjelin mumbled..
shhhhh dont talk you are safe have some water Raghav said in a soft voice
and made her to drink water..
Raghav. Am sorr.Evanjelin was fighting for words..
thats k dont worry hey act like you are still in sedationeverything else will
happen according to our plan..now take rest Raghav smiled
Time was nearing 5 pm there was no moment from Pooja Raghav patted her cheeks
many times , rubbed her palm and feet many times meanwhile.. but every effort
resulted in vain
@!$$@%7& !!! they have sedated Pooja very badly!! Raghav roared..
relax Raghav she will be fine It was Evanjelin
No Evanjelin.. time is 5.10 I can sense no moment in her am worried. Tears
started to trickle from his eyes
Pooja is lucky you love her so much right?? Evanjelin grinned
I cant say its Love.. something more than that I need her.. Raghav said
she will be fine Evanjelin consoled him
**********************************************
15 minutes before. Pooja felt great pain in her head
you guarantee our safety I can help you guys.. Raghav threw a cunning look
how can you help us?? a man from the front seat turned towards him
I cant tell you that.. I can disclose that message only to your leader I know about the
man whom you are searching Raghav smiled..
What??? they all exclaimed
dont think you can fool us.. one of the men bellowed..
I swear.. I about that man but I can say that only to your leader Raghav said..
Immediately those guys telephoned Suraj
Bring that fool here Suraj said
Hey come our boss wants to see you.. a man pulled Raghav out
My wife Raghav yelled..
shut up.. come with us.. hey guys be careful with these ladies
Two men went with Raghav and the rest two were kept as security for Pooja and
Evanjelin
Raghav walked with that men they had to move towards a higher altitude to reach the
skiing area It was snowing heavily out everyone wrapped themselves in heavy
mufflers
The area was deserted..
Its going to be 6 Look this place is still bright.. a man sighed..
Its because of snow snow is the brilliant absorbent of light.. you can feel darkess only
after 8.. Raghav replied
I didnt ask you shut up the man yelled
Raghav found Aejaz near the tea shop. Aejaz gave a pale smile towards raghav and
moved towards the car.
*************************************
Skiing area
Suraj was standing baffled with his men the area was deserted
Raghav reached the spot at 5.58 PM exactly..
Tell.. what do you know about him Suraj queried
See the man whom you are looking is.
suraj.. see our men have brought the mastermind.. a man in the gang exclaimed.
Those men were dragging a man with his mouth shut. He was in blue jeans and black
coat and face covered in muffler that man was carrying a heavy luggage with him
wowww!! Finally we got him Suraj shouted in joy.
Welcome my dear partner.. remove the muffler.. I wanna see his damn face suraj
smiled.
yeah sure . and a man removed the muffler
When the face was relieved everyone stood stunned.
It was a female standing before them and she was weeping badly
I dont have any money with me now Please leave me.. she was crying like a kid
we can make nithya to nominate for Oscar Raghav thought and smiled at her..
damn whom have you brought?? Suraj looked his men fiercely
We were searching for black coat and blue jeans we saw him sorry her there in
parking space.. since the face was covered with muffler we didnt see her face those
men answered with fear
Idiots dont you guys know the difference between male and female now just get
lost from here and search for the man around Suraj shouted
Suraj.. See there Our car is moving one of the men pointed.
what?? It is the car in which Pooja and Evanjelin were there hell and he dailed
his men inside the car.
Hello whats happening there??? Are the girls safe?? Suraj shouted
Yeah very safe Bad luck for you Suraj Aejaz said and disconnected the call
Oh shit!! They have fooled us this time time too hell no am gonna kill him.
Suraj was screaming..
Meanwhile Nithya slipped from the crowd and ran towards the parking space..
suraj she is running
Shut up you fools let our prey go and now you feel for this stupid women.. Suraj
was shouting in rage..
how can this happen how did he managed to fool our men and take our car with
him.. he must be here.. come on search Suraj said
Suraj.. Raghav is missing one of the men said..
Missing.. he is such a coward dont bother about him Suraj said..
There he is.. a man pointed his finger towards south.. Raghav was doing ice skiing
with tremendous speed
For the first time Suraj noticed him wearing blue jeans and Black over coat
Damn.. how did I missed that Suraj was puzzled
how come he got the skis and the skiing poles with him ?? suraj stood unanswered..
that girl !! she came here with a baggage oh shit!! suraj remembered the girl
whom his men brought here by mistake..
hey follow Raghav he is the man we are searching for.. Suraj screamed
Some of his men got inside the car and moved along the road following Raghav
There were three bobsleigh standing near by which suraj has ordere for emergency
suraj and few of his men on that and chased Raghav
(Bobsleigh is a small vehicle for two or more people designed for sliding over snow and
ice and used in races down a track called a bobsleigh run)
There was official gunshots in middle.. But Raghav was heading with great speed that
too

Who shifted this couch back to the living room?? She muddled

he hugged Pooja..
That was the moment Pooja expected
A hug which could dissolve all her sorrows..
A hug which shows someone is there for her and he wont leave her at any cost..
A hug which makes words dumb
I missed you Raghav whispered
