Chapter 10

Next morning ✨

Anokhi shifts with Aradhya in her hostel room and after that both of them have breakfast and start studying as the college is closed for two weeks.

While reading, Anokhi starts thinking about that message and then she thinks that only today she will go and find out the truth from him.

Aradhya:- anokhi kya tu utni der soch Rahi hai mai bula rahi hu tujhe

Anokhi:- h..n woh mtlb kuch nhi bss kuch sochne lagi thi

Aradhya:- pagal ladki yeh dekh phone bjj raha hai utni der se

Anokhi:- ohh

Anokhi picks up the call and realizes that it was Shaurya's call. Shaurya tells her not to go to the place which was mentioned in the text . But Anokhi is Anokhi, she said that she will not go but she had complete planning to go.

Anokhi's pov .

Raisinghania Mansion

The next morning, in the grand Raisinghania Mansion, Shaurya stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his black suit. His face was red with anger, his eyes blazing with fury. He was shouting at a policeman on the phone, his voice echoing through the hallway.

"Do you know who I am? I am Shaurya Raisinghania! I want results, not excuses! You've had all night to gather evidence, and you're telling me you have nothing? Unacceptable!"

His mother, Aastha, entered the room, concern etched on her face. "Shaurya, beta, please calm down. Your health is more important than any case."

Shaurya ignored her, continuing to yell at the policeman. "I don't pay you to make excuses, I pay you to get results! Find something, anything, or you're fired!"

Adhiraj, his best friend, walked in, looking worried. "Shaurya, dude, chill. You're going to have a heart attack."

Shaurya slammed his fist on the counter, making both Aastha and Adhiraj jump. "I won't calm down until I get justice! That criminal is still out there, and I won't rest until I catch him!"

Aastha approached him, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Shaurya, please. You're not going to solve the case by yelling at the police. Let them do their job."

Shaurya took a deep breath, his anger slowly subsiding. He looked at his mother and friend, his expression softening. "You're right. I'm sorry. I just...I can't let him get away with this."

Adhiraj nodded. "We'll get him, Shaurya. Together. But first, let's get some coffee and calm down."

Shaurya nodded, and the three of them walked out of the room, ready to face the day ahead.

Adhiraj:- shaurya ek kaam krta hu ki Mai bhi chlta hu tere saath

Shaurya:- kyuu tere paas Aaj kaam nhi hai kya

Adhiraj:- nhi mai toh free hu ek dum Vella

Shaurya:- chaliye maharaj

Shaurya and Adhiraj sitting in a sleek, black car, surrounded by tinted windows and luxurious leather seats. The car glides smoothly through the streets, flanked by two burly bodyguards on motorcycles. As they hit the middle of the road, traffic suddenly comes to a standstill. Adhiraj's gaze wanders, and his eyes land on a familiar face - Aradhya. His eyes moisten for a brief moment, but he quickly regains his composure, masking his emotions.

The traffic clears, and the car resumes its journey. They arrive at the DM office, and Rishabh, Shaurya's PA, greets them with a warm smile. "Good morning, sir. I have your coffee ready."

Shaurya takes the cup and asks, "What's the update on the work I assigned to you, Rishabh?"

Rishabh replies, "It's done, sir. All the police officers are searching for evidence, but they're looking in the wrong places. Except for our trustworthy ones, of course."

Shaurya's expression turns thoughtful, his mind processing the information. Adhiraj sips his coffee, his eyes fixed on Shaurya, concerned about his friend's well-being.

The scene ends with Shaurya and Adhiraj sitting in the DM office, surrounded by the hum of activity, their minds focused on solving the case and bringing the culprit to justice.

Time skip

Evening

The scene shifts to Aradhya's hostel room in the evening, where she is sitting with Anokhi. Aradhya looks concerned and asks, "Hey, anokhi itni jaldi mein kaha Jaa Rahi ho ?  It's only 7 pm."

Anokhi hesitates, "I...I have some important work, Aradhya. I can't tell you what it is, but please don't ask me any questions, okay?"

Aradhya raises an eyebrow, "What's going on, Anokhi? You're being really secretive."

Anokhi quickly gets ready, her movements swift and nervous. "I'll tell you later, I promise. Just don't tell anyone I left, okay?"

Aradhya nods, "Fine, but be careful, okay?"

Anokhi gives her a quick hug and rushes out of the room, leaving Aradhya looking worried and curious. The door closes behind Anokhi, and she disappears into the evening, her destination unknown.

Anokhi arrives at the designated location, her mind racing with thoughts. As she reaches the spot, a memory flashes in her mind, but before she can process it, a group of goons emerge from the shadows, their eyes fixed on her with malicious intent.

"Hey, pretty girl, all alone at night. Yaha kya kr rahi ho madam woh bhi itni raat ko " one of them sneers.

Anokhi's instincts kick in, and she assumes a defensive stance. The goons, unaware of her black belt skills, charge at her. But Anokhi is a force to be reckoned with. She takes them down with swift and precise moves, her martial arts training on full display.

The goons retreat, nursing their wounds, and Anokhi stands tall, her heart racing. But as she looks around, she realizes it's too late, and the darkness has swallowed everything. With a sigh, she gets on her bike and rides away, the night swallowing her up.

Anokhi reaches the hostel room at 10 pm, hiding from the back gate. quickly goes into the room

Aradhya:- itni late anokhi tumhari mummy ka call aaya tha

Anokhi:-  mai abhi baat krti hu unse

Aradhya:- hnn theek hai ek kaam kro jaakr fresh ho jao mai khana deti hu tumko aur phir baat kr lena unse ek baar

Anokhi:- hnn theek hai mai aati hu

After that she eats strange fresh food and talks to her mother. After that she lies down on her bed and thinks why she has not remembered this thing for so many days. Just then she picks up her phone and messages Shaurya.

Anokhi:- mujhe case ke baare mein bhaut badi baat pata hai kl milna hai mujhe aapse ....

She falls asleep after sending this message.
