After few days had passed, Omkara felt confident in his planning to avenge his enemies, marking his first step towards his revenge. He had been tracking, stalking, noticing and structuring a plan in his mind against the main culprits who took his life, his Gauri away from him.

As he walked down the road, minding his own business. He felt a sudden nudge on his shoulder, turning his head to the side, blinking at a girl who had been sweating and seemed out of breath.

"Help please. . . Those men. . ." She pointed in a direction, leaving her words incomplete with hope in her heart, praying to escape from the men that had been chasing her.

Omkara cocked his head to the side, watching the men glaring at the girl, who timidly moved behind him.

"Stop your drama and come. . ." The men uttered and moved his hand forward, reaching out to grab her however Om held his hand, staring at them with anger.

"Leave her alone."

"You mind your own business!" They yelled at him and raised their hands to attack him. He held one of their hand, twisting it and pushed him towards the two coming towards him.

He began fighting them with anger, starting to take the anger he has within out on them, not willing to fail to protect this girl. Sensing his anger, the three men ran for their lives, not turning back around a single moment while fleeing.

"Are you okay?" He asked, facing the girl who sighed a relief and nodded her head positively. "Yes, thank you so much!" She was grateful to him for saving her.

He flapped his eyes at her, "why were they after you?" He wondered, noticing familiarity from those men, trying to think where he had seen them before.

"I. . ." She stopped, sighing while forming a frown over her lips, "how should I start?" She asked herself, blinking at him with sadness. "This don, Kaali Thakur I think. . . He is after me now."

Om's eyes widened as his fists clenched hearing the name 'Kaali Thakur' from her mouth.

"It was all my fault." She continued, adding more to the story. "My boyfriend was trying to test my jealousy, but I was adamant and not willing to show my jealousy towards him and his female friend. He started to talk to his female friend and to make him jealous, I decided to approach Kaali Thakur who had just come out of the swimming pool. Despite being unattractive, I thought my boyfriend would burn in jealousy seeing me talk to a well built man. I took pictures with Kaali Thakur and called him handsome. I did not know he would start liking me, he crossed all his limits and physically attacked my boyfriend in front of my eyes! He told me I was his, even though I made it clear that I don't feel the same way about him. My boyfriend won't even pick my calls up, he's been ignoring me and all of this happened because of that ugly old Kaali!"

He exhaled, instantly developing a plan in his mind. Staring at the girl with a small amount of hope. 

"What's your name?" He asked and she creased her forehead, slightly hesitant as she replied "Sh. . . Shruti."

"What's your boyfriends name?"

She was more confused as she flapped her eyes at him, "Akhil. . . Why?"

"You want Akhil?" He questioned and she nodded her head, "hell yes. Kaali shouldn't even be an option, I hate him!"

"I'll help you patch up with Akhil and get Kaali Thakur off your back. . . If you help me." He placed a condition forth and she stared at him.

"How can I trust you?"

"You can tie a Rakhi around my wrist." He offered his wrist and she looked down at it, sensing a positive energy from him and his aura.

"What do I have to do?" She asked, looking back at him and he curled a small smile over his lips.

After some time, Shruti and Om were sat in the cafe, talking and laughing. A black car stopped outside the cafe and the door opened.

"They're here." Shruti whispered while continuing to keep that fake smile over her lips.

"Good. Are they heading towards us?"

"They haven't stepped out yet. . ." Shruti observed and looked at Om. Her eyes move in that direction again as she saw a man step out.

"His main guy is out." She revealed and Siddhu looked around after stepping out of the car. "Followed by rotten gulab-jaman and haathi." She added, watching a dark skinned guy step out and a we'll build muscular guy come out too.

She ignored them before they could notice her looking at them and glanced at Om, curving a fake smile. "They're heading towards us now."

Om shook his head and waited for few seconds before standing up and heading towards them.

The guy who had been labelled as rotten gulab-jaman leaned in towards Siddhu, "he's heading towards us Bhai."

Siddhu eyed Omkara with a dangerous glance, leaning against the car door after shutting it, waiting for him to stop in front of him.

"Let him come." Siddhu responded and spat out on the floor.

Om's blood boiled as he walked towards Siddhu, recalling what he had done and how he was involved in ruining his world. From the last time he saw Siddhu, he noticed how changed and well dressed Siddhu had gotten. From a rowdy look to a suit, realising he had been promoted.

"Why are you making my girlfriend uncomfortable? Who even are you?" Om uttered, pretending to be clueless while creasing his forehead. "Are you Bholu?"

Siddhu scoffed while his two men passed Om a 'in disbelief' look.

"Do you not know who you're talking to?" Siddhu asked, straightening his posture while staring at Om. "You look new, are you from our area?"

"You are Bholu, aren't you?" He asked again and Siddhu shook his head. "I'm Siddhu."

"Siddhu?" Om asked, narrowing his eyes confusingly. "Who?" Siddhu's expressions turned stern while his men grit his teeth.

"Ayy, do you not know who Siddhu Bhai is?" The one labelled as haathi exclaimed, pointing his finger at Om.

"Where is Bholu?" Om asked instead, triggering Siddhu by indirectly insulting him. "What's it to you? He must be laying like a dog in his station."

"Ohh. I've been trying to get hold of him but I can't seem to. I need to write a complaint against that pervert Kaali Thakur and his men who are harassing my girlfriend Shruti."

"Ayy!" Siddhu shouted with anger boiling within him, grabbing Om's collar. "Talk with respect! Kaali Thakur Bhai. . ." He trailed off while biting on a small wooden stick in his tongue. "And why will Bholu support you? He's on our side, he will never file your complain against Kaali Thakur Bhai."

"And what type of girl is she?" Rotten Gulab-Jaman wondered, making a face while passing Shruti a quick glance.

Siddhu let go of Om's collar and Om stared at him with seriousness.

"In the morning her boyfriend was someone else and now her boyfriend is someone else. . . She is just luring our Bhai I bet and playing hard to get so he can become a love sick puppy and be all in her feet." He added, passing a disgusted look to Shruti from afar before looking at Siddhu.

"Ayy! Talk with respect, she's my girl." Om uttered in the same tone as Siddhu, passing the same glare to them.

"Tomorrow you'll be off the list and a new guy would be on." Haathi scoffed, stating his opinion and Om looked on.

"I'll be going to the commissioners office to file a complaint against all of you, including that Kaali Thakur BHAI." Om threatened, mocking the word Bhai and Siddhu scoffed along with his two men.

"He's also in our favour, besides he's out of city so how will your complain reach him?" Rotten Gulab-Jaman revealed and Siddhu spat the stick out, "your complaint won't leave those four walls of the station."

Om felt enraged and clenched his fists, "watch. . . I won't spare you and your Kaali Thakur Bhai."

Siddhu and his two men laughed as loud as they could, finding Om's words a joke.

"You don't even have the worth to touch his hair." Haathi laughed and Om fumed.

"Bhai has set his eyes on your girlfriend. . . So now, she will be his under any cost and any price." Siddhu warned with seriousness, and Om glared at him.

Soon a phone call disturbed their glare, as Siddhu answered, Om slowly made his way away from them, curving a smirk over his lips. He watched Shruti leaving too and changed his direction, walking in a fast pace.

"What?" Siddhu was stunned, lifting his gazes only to find him and Shruti gone.

"Go find them!" Siddhu ordered after disconnecting the call.

"Who?"

"The guy that just left and that girl!" Siddhu seemed really moody and annoyed, slamming his fist on his car.

The two start moving around to find Om and Shruti.

After an hour, Siddhu hesitantly walked inside the house, swallowing as he lowered his head down. His eyes slowly lift as he watched Kaali Thakur sitting in his chair with his eyes closed and Bholu stood next to him with irritation and anger glimpsing from his face.

"You stupid piece of shit!" Bholu roared as loud as he could, storming towards Siddhu.

Siddhu merely looked at Kaali Thakur, swallowing his spit. "Bhai. . . I didn't know he was recording. . ." He closed his mouth as soon as Kaali Thakur stood up and opened his angry eyes.

Siddhu felt his heart race as he watched Kaali Thakur head towards him. "I'm sorry. . ."

Kaali Thakur slapped Siddhu across the face as hard as he could and Siddhu closed his eyes. "You dumb, useless scum! You can't even do a single thing right! How can you make such a big mistake?"

"I didn't realise he played us. . . I'm sorry." Siddhu apologised, feeling guilty and ashamed while lowering his head.

"Your sorry won't fix anything!" Bholu irritatedly exclaimed, having the urge to kill Siddhu.

Kaali Thakur clenched his fist, completely disturbed by what just had happened. Video of Siddhu was circulating around the internet and news, dragging Bholu, Kaali Thakur and the commissioner in a puddle of misery and hate.

"I will handle this Bhai. You don't worry. . . I will make sure this matter doesn't exaggerate. We will call Siddhu mentally unstable who you don't even know and is just trying to ruin your image." Bholu added, facing Kaali while assuring it.

"Why will I be declared mentally unstable?" Siddhu was offended by Bholu's suggestion.

"Because you dragged us into this mess!"

"So getting rid of me would make it any better?" Siddhu asked with boiling anger, "don't forget you're this close to Bhai because of me!"

"It was Bhai's decision to get close to me, you did nothing!"

"Enough!" Kaali Thakur shouted as loud as he could, interrupting Bholu and Siddhu, even though they continue to glare at each other.

"Call Ajay, where is he?" Kaali asked, exhaling while playing with his fingers anxiously.

"And. . . Get the guy who did this!"

"I'll get him Bhai. Don't worry, I'll dig him from the underground if I have to." Siddhu assured and Kaali looked at him, "I want him."

"You'll get him." Siddhu nodded at Kaali and started heading out.

"I'll also make an effort of searching." Bholu uttered and Kaali nodded. "I'll also call Ajay and find out where he is. . ." Bholu took his phone out of his pocket while rushing towards the exit.

Kaali stared into space and grit his teeth, closing his eyes to calm himself down.

While walking out the mansion, Bholu's eyes fall on Siddhu. Who was talking to his men, ordering them something. A sigh escaped his mouth and he unwillingly headed towards him with bitterness expressions.

"Who was that guy who managed to fool you?"

Siddhu rolled his eyes, ignoring Bholu. "I'll find him myself, you don't need to poke your noise in between."

"You dragged me into this with your fat mouth!" Bholu argued, agonised and angry while glaring at Bholu.

"And I will sort it out!"

"Fine. When you can't find him then come back running to me, on your knees!"

"My shoes won't even come to you!"

Bholu stormed off in anger and Siddhu grit his teeth, watching Bholu leave.

"I wish he dies!" He exclaimed, spitting out on the floor.

"Bhai, we can get his address. . ." Haathi trialled off and instantly grabbed Siddhu's attention. "Do you remember that girl? He was her afternoon boyfriend. She will know who he is."

"Shruti." Rotten Gulab-Jaman uttered and Siddhu nodded his head. "Let's go." He ordered and opened the car door.

After a while, Bholu is secretly walking to a place while hiding behind the trees. He watches Om walking towards a deserted cliffy area.

He recalled how he had encountered Om and why he followed him all the way here.

While walking on the roads after his car broke down, Bholu tripped and leaned forward, nearly tilting over onto the floor. Before he could, Om held onto him and helped him regain his balance.

"Are you okay sir?" He asked and Bholu nodded his head, impressed with him. "Well thank you for helping me."

"You're welcome sir." Om smiled, feeling immense hate as he recalled Bholu's words while they were in the bus.

"Are you the same Bholu sir in the news?" He asked, sounding confused and Bholu looked on, shaking his head negatively.

"I'm Vishnu, his twin." He lied in order to get himself away from the embarrassment.

"Oh. Okay." Om sounded disappointed and the two start walking.

"Why do you sound sad?"

"I needed to speak to Bholu sir."

"Why is that?"

"I needed to file a complaint. My friends have been missing for 3 days now and I'm getting really concerned."

"What's their names?"

"Their names are Gauri and Omkara." Om revealed while observing Bholu's reactions, "do you have a picture of them?"

"Yes. . ." Om took his phone out, loading a picture on his phone screen. After it was clear, he showed Bholu who was astonished.

"Sir, I need to go but please do tell your brother. I need to find them." Bholu nodded and Om rushed into a direction.

"Three days ago?" He wondered and gasped, deciding to follow while sliding his phone out.

"What?"

"Hello, Kaali Bhai. . . You know the case 10 months ago, of those lovers, Omkara and Gauri?"

"I told you to find the guy, not dig up the past from months ago!" Kaali sounded angry and annoyed.

"Bhai listen. . . I met a boy just now who said they went missing three days ago."

"What? How is this possible?" Kaali questioned, sounding shocked.

"He showed me a picture of Gauri and Omkara." Bholu uttered and continued to secretly follow Om.

"Follow him and send me the address!"

"Okay." Bholu replied and cut the call.

Om had disappeared from his sight and he worriedly walked forward, near the steep edge of the cliff, glancing around.

"Where did he go?"

"Sir, are you searching for me?" He was startled and he immediately turned around, finding Om standing in front of him.

"Where. . . Where are we?"

"Sir, why were you following me? Is everything okay?"

"How do you know Gauri and Omkara?" Bholu went straight to the point, asking about Gauri and Omkara.

"Ohh. . . You wanted to know that?" Om took a letter out of his pocket and forwarded it to him. "Read this. . ." He trailed off, handing him the letter.

Bholu snatched it and opened it, scanning his eyes through it. His eyes widened and he looked back at Om. "What is this nonsense?"

Om inched forward and took the letter, putting in in Bholu's pocket. "I'm. . ." He moved back and stared at Bholu, intimidating him. "The one who you killed. The same Omkara who you're scared about."

"H. . . How is that possible?" Bholu swallowed, taking his steps backwards and Om glared at him with hatred. "What did you think, your life would be easy after you did that to us?"

"You. . ." Bholu continued taking his steps back while Omkara walked forward. "She trusted you!" He angrily roared, startling Bholu who slipped and fell backwards, throwing himself down the cliff and into the steep deep forest.

"She. . . Trusted. . . You." He repeated, but this time with moist eyes as he watched Bholu fall.

He entered the house, wrapping his hand with a black band. "What is this behaviour? Just because you're Om's friend, you can't behave the way you want! You're going out early and coming back late, how long will you be staying here? Quickly pack your bags and move. . . You're getting too suspicious." Om's claimed 'uncle' bickered, pointing his finger at Om who walked in.

Om ignored him and headed towards the secret room. "Oye! I'm talking to you, just because you knew about this room doesn't make the room yours! And what you have in that room is really creepy!"

"Did you go in?" Om asked in a stern tone and his claimed uncle walked forward. "Yes, I did! Who were you to stop me from going into my nephews secret room? Whatever you're doing, do it somewhere else! I won't tolerate your secret suspicious behaviour. I don't even know if your Om's friend or not. I don't even know if you're not a criminal!"

Om entered the room and he followed him inside, "I give you two hours to evacuate otherwise. . ."

"Was your name Vijay?" Om asked, heading towards the wall which had their photos stuck on it. He picked the red marker up and the claimed uncle nodded, "yes, Vijay!"

"I don't remember Om having an uncle called Vijay."

Vijay passed him a look yet maintained his expressions, "because we weren't close. But that doesn't mean I'm not his chachu!"

Om put a cross on Bholu's picture and Vijay watched him. "You see this man. . ." Om trialled off and faced Vijay while putting the lid on the market.

"Yes, I see him. He's that corrupt officer Bholu. . . Why?"

"I killed him."

Vijay laughed, "you killed him?" Om stared at him with seriousness and Vijay scoffed, "go threaten someone else with your false attitude. You can scare these little kids with your white lies but I'm your Dad in this matter, you won't be able to form a wrinkle of fear on my forehead understood? Now evacuate the house quickly!" He threatened and walked out of the room.
