It had been a month since the deadly fight in which Brinda was killed & Sonali became a martyr.

A lot had changed over this one month. Except KryAn, Golu & Jatin everyone else involved with the mysteries had left Goa.

Dev wanted justice for his so called sister Brinda & his Sonakshi. Somewhere deep inside his heart he felt that the girl he met that day was not Sonakshi but how could he deny what his eyes saw. Sonakshi was an orphan & lived with her friends then why did she call Bijoy 'Baba' while dying who were those men who had crossed all limits of humanity & killed two innocent girls. So many questions & no answers at all. He kept going to the police station to know about any advancements in the case but there was none. He wished to contact Bijoy but he had left the state. He used to read all the posts on Sonali's social media accounts. Till the time she lived there was no profile picture at all but just a day before she died she had updated her profile picture. Dev had stopped going to the beaches, he didn't look at ferries anymore, he didn't wished to visit Asagaon,he hated the music coming out from any shacks, the mention of Doodhsagar made him cry, the sound of rivers made him remember the day when he had realised his love, late night car rides, hunts for ice creams, music, radio stations made her memories haunt him. As much as he tried he couldn't get over her.

One day Dev had visited the police station to enquire about Sona's case but as usual there was no information about it. Why is everyone hushing the matter? He thought.

As he moved outside the police station. He heard a familiar voice call him "Dev". He turned around to find Jatin standing there

"Hi! Jatin" He replied

"Are you busy? There is something important I need to tell you" Jatin was moving his fingers nervously.

"Is it about Sonakshi?" Dev asked

"Yes" Jatin replied

Dev agreed & Jatin drove him to KryAn's house. They were welcomed by Golu who was happy to see Dev again. Even Golu had lost his happiness with Sona's death.

Jatin took Dev inside the house. Krystle was alone in the house blankly changing channels. When Jatin called her she came out of her reverie. She saw Dev with Jatin.

"Why is he here?" She asked

"I need to show him the truth" Jatin said

"Really? So that in order to keep him out of our mess one of us will have to sacrifice our lives again. Sonakshi liked him but she loved Sonali & just to safeguard him we had to loose her."

"You are venting your anger on the wrong person" For the first time Jatin was defending Dev " If we would have not made our own plans to protect Sonali we would have been by her side while she was fighting with Brinda ... When those men attacked her we could have counter attacked them ... If we would have trusted Bijoy Sir's & Sonali's idea we would have been successful."

"I have lost a friend, Jatin that is all I know. If we let him peek into our world we will risk Sonakshi's life. I won't allow this. Let the secrets be hidden" Krystle was adamant on her decision

"You know that Sonakshi deserves a normal life. She needs her light which only Dev can give her ... Sonali soaked all the darkness to give Sonakshi the light.... She was an amazing sister ..."

"I wish she wasn't one because then she would have been alive" Krystle's voice cracked

Dev was listening to this conversation with his jaw dropping to the floor. "Listen... Krystle ... I don't know what the matter is but if in anyway I can help Sonakshi I am ready to burn myself to give her the light. Please, tell me what is the matter"

"Will you take him to Sonakshi?" Krystle asked Jatin "If they know that Sonakshi is still alive they'll kill her."

"I have my plans" Jatin replied with a one sided grin.

"Dev" Krystle turned to him " Let me warn you that what you are going to enter is a quick sand... The deeper you go the faster it pulls you inside... If situations demand we'll have to keep you with us without your permission ... You may have to loose your identity... Are you ready?"

"If this road leads me to Sonakshi ... I don't care" he replied firmly

"Go ahead then"

Jatin took Dev along with him to the first floor of that house. They stood in front of an almirah.

"Are you taking me to Narnia?" Dev's imagination was running wild " Sona is the princess of Narnia! That's so cool"

Jatin laughed & shifted the almirah. A door came in view he opened the door & after crossing a narrow corridor they reached a dark room with only the faint light of the bulb illuminating the room. It was the same place where they had held a meeting few days back. It took some time for Dev to adjust to the room's light. He saw a map of India with many states marked in red. Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh, West Bengal parts of Bihar & Jharkhand. Adjacent to it was another map it was a political map of West Bengal with a place called DurgaNagar marked prominantly.

"Sit" Jatin told Dev

Dev sat on a chair opposite to him.

"This is a long story Dev. I expect you to maintain the confidentality of it. By trusting Brinda I had made the biggest mistake of my life. Another breach of trust would straight away lead to death. Hope that is clear"

Dev nodded

" Sonakshi comes from a rich & prosperous family in Kolkata. Her aunts & uncles are still alive but very few of them know that Sonakshi is alive. Sonakshi's father was Mr Durjoy Bose he was an IPS officer. When he was posted in places near Durganagar he realised that naxalism was raising its head with the help of common villagers. They believe that only naxalists can help them solve their issues & whatever the government does is against their benefits. They don't trust the administration. Maoism/Naxalism was initiated with a good motive but now it is only driven by the hunger of power. Sona's dad thought that it's a war against our own men & we need to handle it with utmost precaution
He started providing educational facilities to the children of the villagers along with other basic facilities. Education brings along with it the power to question & the villagers slowly began demanding a rational point of view from the naxalists. They thought that Durjoy uncle would kill all their motives & decided to kill him. Bijoy sir & my father were his friends. They were great support systems for him... They were called BRS squad... Bose-Sen-Roy... One day the naxalists attacked their quarters at night. Incidentally, Durjoy uncles family was staying with him... His wife & two twin daughters Sonali & Sonakshi"

"Sonali & Sonakshi are two different people! Then why did Sona tell me that she is RJ Sonali & Golu also many times called Sonali's show as Sonakshi's" Dev was confused

"Hold on! Be patient. That night Durjoy uncle fought them with exemplary courage but then they took his wife as hostage. My father came to his rescue & they fought the bastards but they killed Aunty. Durjoy uncle was emotionally shaken & taking advantage of the situation they killed him. My father was also killed. They shot a bullet in Sonakshi's head too. They left Sonali saying that let her live a hell of a life. Her misery would be an example & no officer would dare come in our way. Bijoy sir came & rushed everyone to the hospital. No one could be saved except Sonakshi. This fact was hidden from the world to safeguard Sonali & Sonakshi. Sourabh Da,Elena & I were kids then but the bloodshed made us swear that we'll acts as shields to the sisters."

"That is why Jattu Bhaiya was so protective of Sona" Now that Dev knew that Sonakshi is alive his senses were coming back to place.

Jatin smiled & said
" I could foresee that your friendship would make you fall for each other & I knew that love can cost us dearly so I thought to protect Sona from her Boss ji. Coming back to the story ... On the day of our parents' funeral the enemies attacked again! They wanted to make sure that Sonakshi is dead. All of us (kids) locked ourselves in a dungeon for hours till they raided the house. A few days after that Bijoy Sir faked a resignation & moved to Goa with his family. My mother took Sonali & Sonakshi along with us to Shimla. Bijoy Sir has worked really hard to keep Durjoy uncle's mission alive. We secretly smuggle books & other stationary items in Durganagar. There are families there who think that Durjoy uncle was a right man & they help in teaching others there. We believe that education can bring revolutionary changes in their lives"

"That's great"

"Some years back it was difficult to keep the mission respiring because the naxalists were fuelling anger in the villagers against hike in prices & issues related to the farmers. Sonali had lived in a disguised way for months in the village & gained little bit of trust. She then moved to Goa & stayed with Bijoy sir's family. Sonakshi lived with KryAn two of Bijoy Sir's highly trusted agents. Sonakshi came out in the day & Sonali moved out only in the nights so that no one can doubt of 2 different people living there. Radio Rang was used as a store house for books & weapons. The government aids us but it is a difficult life."

"Why did Brinda get killed in all this?"

"Why did Brinda get killed? I wish I can kill her soul too. Two months back Sonali had been attacked by an agent 271. We could decipher that 1 meant she belonged to the 1st troop of naxalists but it took us time to understand what 2 & 7 meant."

"What did they mean?"

"Brinda Gada. B & G are the 2nd & 7th letter of the alphabets respectively... Fools we were"

"You mean Brinda was a naxalite?"

"Yes"

"Oh my god"

" She attacked Sonakshi in Panaji but Sona saw who it was. We wanted to use you as a bait to catch Brinda because she had used you as a ladder to reach us but Sonakshi revolted. Sonali had always taken all the bruises on herself to give Sona a normal life & because Sona liked you she let herself die to keep you out of the mission. Sona could never love you enough to leave you for your own good so to keep you safe & kill Brinda Sonali sacrificed herself."

Dev felt so sick of himself after knowing that because of him someone had to loose her life
"But Sonakshi told me that she is Sonali"

"It was a trap. We wanted Brinda to believe that Sonakshi is dead & Sonali is hiding behind her dead sister's name. Even Golu thinks they are the same person"

"Where is Sonakshi now?"

" I don't know ..... But there is someone who can tell us"
