Ishaan's POV

Her hands felt cold I rubbed her tiny fingers slightly as tears continued to flow from my eyes.

"Utt bhi jaao yar abb(Now please get up yar)"

I said. This has now become my daily routine.

"Naaz...." I called.

That's when I felt a hand on my shoulder, it was Ayan.

"Teek ho jayegi woh (She will be okay)" Ayan said.

"Doctor ne bhi yahi kaha lekin ajeeb sa daar lag raha hai (Even the doctor said the same thing but I am having this weird fear)"

"Chal yaha se nikalthe hai thodi der yaha se bahar nikalega toh mann halka ho jayega tumhara (come let's get out of here you will feel better if you step out of here for a bit)"

"Mann nehi kar raha hai yar kahi jaane ka(I don't feel like going somewhere)"

"Patha hai isiliye lekar jaana caahtha hoo tumeh (I know that's why I wanna take you)" Ayan said.

"Tujeh sachme lagtha hai ki hameh iss Raghu se milna caahiye I mean......ek toh iski reputation ithni acchi nehi hai ek number ka gunda tha yeh upar se apne hi biwi ko maarne ki jurum ke liye jail main hai (Do you really think we should meet this Raghu I mean his reputation is not so great in the first place he was a local rogue moreover he is in jail for killing his own wife)"

"Mujeh sachme lagtha hai ki iski case ka connection hamare case se hai (I really feel that his case is connected to our case)" Sahil said.

"Teek hai fir chalthe hai (Ok then let's go)"

Ishaan's POV

"You were right better feel kar raha hoo abb (you were right, I am feeling better now)"

I said as I sipped my tea the cold breeze from the sea had a soothing feeling and my mind felt much calmer now.

"I miss her man, I know doctor ne kaha hai ki woh teek ho jayegi lekin ajeeb sa darr lag raha hai mujeh patha nehi ki tum samaj paaoge ya nehi (I miss her man, I know the doctor said that she will be okay but I am having this weird fear, I don't know wether you can understand or not)"

"I understand"

"Tum aise hi bol raha hai na mujeh better feel karwane ke liye? (You are saying that simply to make me feel better right?)"

A smile appeared on his face he took his phone and handed it over to me, I looked at the wallpaper it was a picture of him and a girl, they looked like they were totally in love.

"Oh my god you guys look so cute kaha hai woh abhi? Sorry tumeh jawaab dene ki zaroorat nehi hai toh main line cross kar raha hoo (Oh my god you guys look so cute where is she now? Sorry you don't have to answer that, I am crossing the line)"

"Nehi teek hai......Kavya... woh......Shaadi ho gayi uski(No its okay, Kavya.....She....she got married)"

"That sucks"

"Nehi uss wajeeh se chodkar nehi gayi thi mujeh in fact hum uski baat bhi milthe the, bass ithna samajlo ki.....maine sabb barbaad kar diya (No that's not why she left me in fact we used to meet after that, lets just say that I screwed up)"

"Koi nehi yaar hotha hai (Leave it yar it happens)"

"At least woh kush hogi abhi mujeh toh bhool bhi gayi hogi (At least she is happy now she might have forgotten me by now)"

He said looking at the sky.

Kavya's POV

It was a beautiful morning but instead of doing something productive I was laying down wet clothes in the balcony to dry.

"Kavya......" I heard Karthik's voice.

"Aa rahi hoo (Coming)" Kya hua I said as I quickly finishing my task and walking back to our bedroom.

"Kya hua?(What happened?)"

"Tumne yeh pregnancy test nehi liya? (You didn't take this pregnancy test?)"

I looked at the pregnancy test kit in his hand which my mother in law got me.

"Haa woh.........woh mera periods shuru hua aaj na toh..... (ya that.....my periods started today so.......)"

"Accha toh teek hai (oh, ok then)"

I went forward and took the packet from his hand I went and opened the drawer to place the packet.

"Woh maa keh rahi thi ki humeh ek doctor se milna caahiye, ithna waqt ho gaya hai toh..... (Listen mom was saying we should meet a doctor I mean it has been a while so.....)"

In the drawer I saw my packet of contraceptive pills sticking out I pushed it under my stuff.

"Ithna waqt todi hua hai (it hasn't been that long)"

Karthik looked at me confused.

"Shaam ko baat karthe hai tumhara jaane ka waqt ho gaya (we can talk in the evening it's time for you to leave)"

"Teek hai (Ok)" he said and walked outside. I went and closed the bedroom door. I opened my wardrobe took out the jacked that was acting like a life saver for all these while I put it on as I sat on the balcony and looked at the sky.

Sahil's POV

I looked at the guy sitting in front of me I looked into his eyes and all I could see was pain, the same pain that I saw in Virean's eyes.

"Naam kya hai tumhara? (What is your name?)" Shabhana asked.

"Raghu" He said.

"Kya hua tha uss raat ko? (What happened that night?)" I asked.

"Main ek mamooli gunda tha logon ko lootna daarakar unse apna kaam nikalwaana shoak tha mera mujeh Zoya na badla tha accha insaan banaya tha, hum dono ka koi nehi tha jaise hi pyaar hogaya shaadhi bhi ho gayi(I was a local rogue I enjoyed mugging people and threatening them to get my work done, Zoya changed me she made me a better person both of us had no one so as soon as we fell in love we got married)" Raghu said.

His words took me back to what Virean said.

"Galthi se mila tha Ishitha ko lekin jabse mila tabse usse door nehi rehna caahtha tha lekin uski gharwale kuch aur hi caahthe the, ukse saat rehene se hi kush ho jaatha tha main, issiliye usse jaane dena ka mann bhi nehi kiya toh lad liya par ek mahina kabb ek saal ho gaya patha hi nehi chala lekin end main as always pyaar jeet gaya (I met her Ishitha by mistake but since the time I met her I didn't wanted to stay away from her but her family wanted something different, I felt happy when I was with her so we fought one month turned into an year within no time but in the end ad always love won)"

https://youtu.be/uCMYzolEbO0

"Zoya se milne ki baat maine apna purani Zindagi chod diya tha paise kum kammathe the lekin sukoon bohot tha lekin ek din main jab naukri se chalkar waapas aa raha tha batha nehi kaha se kisi ne mujeh peh hamlla kiya seeda saar pe maara aur main behosh ho gaya (After meeting Zoya I left my old life behind I earned really less money but there was peace until one day while I was returning from work someone attacked me the person hit me right on the head and I became unconscious)"

"Woh psychiatrist thi lekin usko paani se daar lagtha tha pehele mujeh ye baat bada cute lagtha tha lekin mujeh nehi batha ki wohi cheez uski jaan le legi, uss raat ho sachme ek gaadi ne hamenh takar maara tha lekin hum dono nadi main nehi gire the (She was a psychiatrist but she could never cure her fear of water I found this really cute until it took her life that night we were hit by a car but we didn't fell into the river)"

"Zoya ka cheek sunkar mujeh hosh aaya woh usse uski baal se pakadkar ghar se keech kar baahar laa rahi thi ek ladki thi woh usne kale rang ka mask pehena tha main uttkar Zoya ki tharf baagne laga lekin ussne bandok tan liya (I woke up hearing Zoya's screm she was being pulled out of our house by hair she was a women she was wearing a black mask I stood up and started running towards Zoya but she pointed a gun at me)"

"Hum log daar gaye aur gaadi se baahar nikale jiss gaadi ne humeh takar maara tha uski andar se ek ladki baahar nikali usne black masquerade mask pehena tha usne gaadi se ek iron rod nikala aur hamari tharaf aane lagi daar kar hum dono baagne lage lekin usne bandook tan liya (We got scared and dot out of the car from the car that hit us a girl stepped out she was wearing a black masquerade mask and she took an iron rod from her car and started walking towards us we got scared and started running but she pointed a gun at us)"

"usne ek bandook meri tharaf pekha Zoya ko meri tharaf dakka diya usne kaha 'isse maar de warna main maar doongi tujeh' Zoya ne badook uttaki aur mujeh tama diya maine kaha main nehi karoonga lekin Zoya na meri haat liya aur bandook ko apni dil ki paas laa kar rakk di, maine uski aaknon main dekha woh caahthi thi ki main uski jaan loo toh hamaesha ki tharah maine uski baat maan liya (She threw a gun towards me and pushed Zoya forward and said 'kill her or I will kill you' Zoya took the gun and placed it in my hand I said I won't do it but Zoya took my hand and placed the gun next to her heart I looked into her eyes and I knew she wanted me to kill her and like always I did what she wanted)"

"Uss moment mujeh laga hum dono marenge lekin yeh baat Ishita ko manzoor nehi tha hum bridge ki edge peh kade the usne meri haat kass ke pakada aur chalang laga diya usse patha tha ki who marege lekin nadi main girne ki baat bhi main shaayad bach jaaonga (in that moment I thought both us are going to die but it was not okay with Ishita, we were standing at the edge of the bridge she held her hand tight and jumped she knew she would die but I may escape even after falling in the river)"

Raghu broke down into tears just like Viren had the other day. I looked at Shabhana who looked back at me with her moist eyes.

Hey guys I am so Sorry that it took me this long to update actually It was really hard for me to write Viren's parts after what had happened but now I am okay and will continue writing this story with the same cast in case you are wondering. And also I have started writing another thriller novel in my joint account Kalanklovers so give it a try too.
