Samay and Chirag looked at each other for a while before Samay looked away. Chirag looked at him for few more minutes before entering the house. He looked around the house. The house was two storied and was quite cozy. As you entered the house, a quite spacious living room came first that had a beautiful sofa set that looked to be new. In front of it was a glass tea table. A television was hung on the wall, each wall was decorated with portraits of scenery and there were house plants on each corner. There were four doors, one led to the open kitchen with dining room right beside it. The other maybe to bedrooms and guest room each having their own bathroom, Chirag guessed as he sat down on the couch, beside Maan.

Samay followed Chirag to the living room. As all three of them sat down on the couch, Samay asked, "Do you guys want anything?"

Before Maan and Maira could answer, Chirag said, "No thanks. We are here on official visit and I would like if we get straight to business."

Maira and Maan glared at Chirag before looking at Samay apologetically.

Samay just smirked and said, "I'll get you guys coke", and left, leaving Chirag frowning at his retreating back.

Chirag looked back at his friends who just shrugged while smiling at him. A moment later, Samay entered with some coke and chips as snack and placed them down on the table causing Maan to squeal in delight as he launched himself at chips.

"So? How may I help you?," Samay asked in his lilting voice as he sat down on a sofa chair, his eyes trained on Chirag's expressionless face with a tantalizing smile on his face.

Chirag just stared at him with narrowed eyes.

Maira looked at Chirag, hoping that he would answer. But when it became clear that he won't, Maira sighed and answered instead. "We need your help in locating some girls who have disappeared in past few months," she said as she spread out the photos of the missing girls on the table.

Samay just looked at the pictures and said, "You know I don't do that anymore, Maira."

"I know, I know. But we are desperate, Samay. Otherwise we wouldn't have bothered you."

Samay sighed and said, "I understand, Maira. I know you have tried everything you could to help find these girls. But I still don't understand why you came to me. I can't help you track down these girls. And even if I agreed to help, all I can do is see the past and the present of these girls, nothing else."

'What about seeing future, Mr. Samay?,' Chirag mocked Samay in his mind.

"I know. And that would be enough. Trust me. I know you can't help locate these girls. But at least by touching these pictures you can tell us whether they are alive or not. Please, Samay, please help us find these girls. They need us," Maira begged.

Samay sighed. Maira was right. These girls need help. But Samay did not want to feel their pain. He felt like a jerk while thinking that, but he does not love pain. And touching these girls pictures won't just mean seeing their past and present but also feeling the pain, the torment they went through.

Samay looked at the trio who were sitting on the sofa, waiting for his answer. He took a deep breath. Samay made his decision
