Another spy

Throughout her journey back to paradise Kenny was on the edge.

Rahul hugged her.

" Don't let him get into your mind. That sadist", he hissed.

" Rahul please don't fight", her voice was weak.

" I won't touch him until he harms you. If he does than..."

THEY HAVE REACHED.

Kenny rushed in.

Raj felt her before he saw her.

She was wearing a baby pink t-shirt and dark blue jeans. With her walking shoes. Her hairs were in a high ponytail with clips. Just pink gloss on lips and kohl in eyes.

EYES WORRIED. LIPS SHIVERING.

Raj waited for her to come to him. It was difficult. The moment he saw her he wanted her. RAHUL WAS WITH HER.

Can I kill him?

" You can't kill him", someone whispered.

He turned back. Ramcharan sighed.

" Behave", he whispered authoritatively.

Before Raj could react he came forward and hugged her.

" Kanu my child how are you", he asked.

She had lost her breath.

" F..F.fine", she could say with difficulty.

" Come sit with us", he signalled Parry with eyes.

" Myra keep Kenny away from him", he was in action mode.

" Your highness", said Myra. " Here are your seats. The show starts soon."

In the end Raj and Rahul ended up adajacent to each other with Parry on Raj's side and Ramcharan on Rahul's side. Kenny sat with Sonia and Myra. Manav came. He hugged Ram crying and sat with Sonia.

" I am going backstage but the gang is coming", said Myra to Kenny.

The girls were all in attendence. They joined Sonia.

" Meenu is nervous", said Sonia.

" She is a fabulous designer", said Kenny. The girls all agreed.

" YOU NEED TO KEEP AWAY FROM HER", Raj said with a frosty smile to Rahul.

" And you need to contain your psycho obsessed behaviour", retorted Rahul with a fake smile plastered to his face.

" Are they both going to survive the show or we are going to witness an explosion", said Grace with mirth.

" I want Rahul to kick his ass properly", said Kiara.

" We will cheer if it happens", said Shai.

" Girls you all are getting blood thirsty", chided Sonia.

"He deserves it Satan", hissed Kiara.

" God please I can't take a fight", said Kenny.

" Kenny love calm down", said Sonia. " Enjoy the show".

At that moment the show started..

The show started with light sarees . It progressed to summer dresses in cotton. Indian suits and western gowns all in pastels like pink, cream, ivory and pista colour.

" These are hers", said Manav as he clapped hard. Models were on stage wearing loose pants and Kaftans.

Sonia held his hand.

" Our daughter fulfilled Shalini's dream", she said. Manav nodded.

As silk arrived the light theme continued with scarfs, lightweight sarees and suits. Also westens like silk gowns and silk shirts were there. The show was now a hit. Both Raj and Rahul enjoyed it clapping.

Finally showstopper arrived with Myra wearing a royal silk saree, a small crown( courtesy Kenny) and jewellery Myra borrowed from Salman uncle. It was Aasma's.

Myra got a standing ovation as a designer.

She took the microphone.

" We have with us the two pillars of Bhishma prince Rajeev and Rahul. Please put your hands together for them".

The brothers climbed the stage together.

They praised the show, organizers, paradise owners, background artists, models and Myra.

" We hope to see a great love in terms of offers for Bhishma clothes", said Raj.

" And your love for all the artists", said Rahul.

" I heard they were on loggerheads. They look fine to me", said a designer to Parry.

" Rumours", shrugged Parry.

" I am impressed", said other top designer to Myra. " I need to make a few clothes for this film. We will order good cloth."

" Bhishma guarantees top quality", said Myra.

" Your highness", said an art director to Rahul.

" Can I meet your artists. I really like some pieces. Maybe we can have an exhibition".

" Sure we can arrange that", he said.

Overall it was a financial success.

Meanwhile

Parry quietly met a waitress in the basement.

" Yes Payal what do you have"?

" This place was owned by a person called Bobby some 30 years back. It was raided by police and army combined. Dream bar it was called then. A large amount of ammunition was confiscated. At that time a bar dancer called Lata worked here. I met her. She is now a slum dweller in Dharavi. The bar was licenced even then. A contrast to nearby bar which were illegal. "

"Is anyone still involved with mafias", asked Parry.

" No sign of Walia brothers involved in shady activities. Paradise chain of resorts run all over India but I met one interesting person who works here. His name is John and he is as forgettable as me. "

" You think we have another spy ", asked Parry.

" Positive", said Payal.

" Has he noticed you", asked Parry.

" I made sure he did", she said.

Parry nodded.

" Okay Solly will give further orders", said Parry.

Payal saluted and left.

Meanwhile

Raj caught her alone. Kenny knew she wouldn't escape him for long.

" Hey beautiful ", she felt his anger piled up in spades.

She just hugged him.

He deeply breath in her sweet scent.

" I love you", she whispered caressing his shoulders and neck.

" I need to hear it more", he whispered.

" Love you love you love you".

" Come back to Junagarh with me", he said.

" Okay", she agreed.

He hugged her for some time and that calmed him down.

" I AM SO JEALOUS OF HIM", he confessed.

" I don't love him", she replied.

" But he was with you in your room", he started.

" Discussing paintings", she shook her head.

" You are his muse. He drew that transformation painting for you", Raj argued.

" He drew that an year back", she said sadly. " Kamini prohibited him to draw. He should at least try to.", she was saying.

" You are not his art teacher or motivation coach", said Raj.

" SHE IS MY ONLY FRIEND", he heard.

Rahul had seen Kenny missing. And his brother too. All he could think was Kenny in danger.

Raj saw his brother and his eyes were on fire again.

He said with mirth

" I think we are having a private moment here. You are not welcome."

" Leave her alone. Don't bother her for my love. Its me who love her and want her. Always have. Still do. Annd always will. Fight me. Be a man about this Raj ."

" Why not brother? I will happily break your face", said Raj smiling dangerously.

" As if I don't have hands", retorted Rahul. He coiled up in attacking position.

" And have not done boxing in my college days".

They moved to hit each other. Kenny placed herself between them.

" Okay sssh", said Kenny. " You both need not be assh*les about trivial things. That too in public. Show is a success. Now think about Bhishma. The farmers and craftsmen and employees and yes the profits too. I am working hard. Cut me some slack".

She massaged her head

" Sorry", said Rahul." Headache"?

" Are you alright", asked Raj. " Have you eaten properly"?

Both of them got concerned over her health. Plan successful she thought.

Kenny appeared flanked by both the princes in the front of media. They politely greeted everyone.

" Oh my God"!

Myra was in a shock. So were other girls.

" Thank God", sighed Parry.

That night

A figure slowly was searching paradise compounds. He had a metal detector. He pounted it in various directions. He would even bend over places lighting torches. Unbeknowst to him he was being followed closely. After sometime he went back.

" This is the third time I saw him doing this", said Payal.

" Concerning . He is searching something. And its metallic", said Duleep

Payal nodded. " What could it be"?

" No idea. Anything else on him", asked Duleep.

" He mostly keeps to himself but is a good listener. He listens a lot. I have seen him talking to people in surrounding areas too. Some of these neighbouring stalls are years old", she said.

" Okay no more following him", said Duleep. " That will alert him. Start talking to those people he talks to. And just listen. Don't talk about him. And don't be foregoing in talks. Wait for them to talk to you", he said.

" Okay", she said.

Then they both left.

Night time

Raj, Parry and Duleep were on a call with Solly and Maddy. Ro was at Khurana hospital. An emergency came up.

" The fellow is a spy. And is searching something ", said Duleep.

"And there is no record on John D'costa before 27 years. As if he did not exist", said Solly.

" So all we know that something is hidden here about which new owner knows nothing", said Ramcharan.

He has joined the call too.

" You need backups daddy but I need to leave tomorrow", said Raj.

" Sheikh Khalid can join you", said Solly. " No one knows you both are connected. But my suggestion. Work separately. Be strangers on face."

" Okay", said Ramcharan. " Keep me updated".

" Daddy be careful", said Raj.

" You too. And don't try to murder every man she talks too", he said.

Parry chuckled.

Another spy was here. But for what?
