All were in shock hearing the news. Whole college was tensed including the teachers and students. Shehnaaz and girls looked at the boys. The girls had fear in their eyes. Who knew that in the second week of their college, they would hear such news that too twice. Police officers were beyond angry and frustrated. They were not able to find any clue about the first death and now one more girl was killed brutally. Police told the college administration to close the college till Monday. It was Thursday already so it was possible. This girl shiny yesterday was going to her apartment after the college but didn't reach home. She too used to live alone as her family lived in Pune because of her father's work. Listening this worry took over sidharth. He felt like something bad gonna happen. He was not able to understand this feeling but a sudden fear gripped him from inside.

sid's pov......

O God.......what is happening? why m feeling like this. sab theek hai.....sab theek ho jayega.....haan haan....police dhund legi us bastered ko......tu tension mat le sidharth......calm down.......kisi ko khuch nhi hoga and he looked at shehnaaz. shehnaaz theek hai....theek to hai vo....baki sab bhi theek hain.... relax.......hum sab sath m rhen ge hamesha......haan...

pov.ends.....

he was standing beside sana but he was so restless and the next moment, he hold her hand tightly in his right hand to calm himself down, to get his sukoon and feeling her beside him and ensured himself that she will be by his side....always. shehnaaz looked at him. he smiled softly at her and she too smiled a little. soon the girls parents arrived as they got the news early morning. Their condition was worst. The mother of the girl was crying uncontrollably and was looking like she would pass out any moment and the father was talking to police officer with pain, helplessness and anger in his eyes. After talking to principle and her teachers,
her friends and other students, the police took the girl's parents with them and left the college. Soon announcement was made about closing the college till Monday and everyone went to their homes.

Sidharth was driving the car with shehnaaz beside him and keerat and kush on the backseat. They all were feeling so bad for those two girls who got such cruel death. Sidharth was still worried but soon his anger was taking over his worry. He wanted to find that jerk and gave him as much painful death as anyone on earth would have ever imagined. He wanted to kill him before anything bad happen again before any other girl would fall prey to him. Shehnaaz looked at him and she could see anger in his eyes and his tight hold on the steering. She kept her soft baby hand on his big hand and feeling her touch his grip on the steering loosened instantly. He looked at her hand and then looked at her. She smiled a little at him and he instantly calmed down and gave her a smile.

Soon they reached girl's home. All went inside. It was 12pm.already. Everybody was feeling exhausted because of the things happening from few days. Shehnaaz immediately went to kitchen and with the help of maid , she came with juice for everyone. Everyone drank the juice and relaxed themselves on the sofa. Everyone was thinking about the same thing. So many emotions took over the girls. The girls were feeling pain inside for those two girls. They could feel their pain and everyone's eyes were filled with tears including the boys. They were just sitting but they were not talking. The scenes from morning were coming in their minds. That broken family of the girl, their miserable condition was breaking their hearts. They all wanted to help them, to sooth their pain but were feeling helpless. After some time finally sidharth spoke.....

sid- girls......i know ye sab kuchh tum logon ko bhut affect kar rha hai....but don't worry....police will catch that bastered soon...and that will be his end for sure.......i know u r not known to this city aur aate hi itna kuchh ho gya but don't worry....we all r with u always......and u all r strong girls right........ everything will be fine soon.......

all girls just nodded their head. it was not like they were weak or were afraid. it's just they were feeling bad for those innocent souls.

sid- and haan sab log apne mobile ka GPS system on rkhoge humesha aur kahin bahr akele nhi jaoge...agr jana hai to hume call kro yaa fir guards sath lekr jao.....tum log new ho iss city m and abhi jyadan kuchh jante bhi nhi ho yahan k baare m and na hi tumhe raste pta hain......to koi carelessness mat krna okk......

All girls were now smiling looking at him. He was so caring and was explaining them everything softly. They all again nodded their head whereas shehnaaz was the happiest soul present in the house. She was admiring him with love filled eyes.

krt- arre tum log aaj yahin ruk jao na.....vaise bhi auncle- aunty to hai nhi ghar.......

shef- haan krt sahi keh rhi hai.....yahin ruk jao....

sid- okay.....hum ruk jayenge.....jab mom dad ghr aa jayenge na to tum logon ko bhi humare ghr leke chalenge.....mom bhut tasty khana bnati hain......

krt- arre why not......vaise bhi hum log mile nhi hain tumhari family se.......kyun shehnaaz......

shehnaaz was busy in her own thoughts so she didn't hear them. krt again called her name and this time little loud. sana came back out of her thoughts. everyone was looking at her.

sana- m abhi aayi........

and she went upstairs. sidharth saw she was upset and something was bothering her....so after 2,3 minutes he also got up......

sid- m aa rha 2 minute m........

asim thought to tease him- ab tum kahan jaa rhe ho bro........

krt too started to tease - han sidharth....what happened.....kuchh chahiye tumhe.....

sid- no no....m fine.....aa rha hun abhi......

he was about to go but this kushal stopped him.

kush- arre bro.....bta kar to jaa.......

sid- tujhe kya krna hai jan kar........

and without waiting for anyone's tippni......he went upstairs leaving them smiling....

shehnaaz was sitting at a corner of her bed and was in deep thinking. The door was open. sidharth came there and seeing the door open....
he went inside and saw shehnaaz in deep thinking. he set near her on the bed.

sid while looking at her- kya hua shehnaaz......

listening his voice shehnaaz came out of her thoughts and looked at him. sidharth looked into her eyes and her eyes were little moist. he got worried seeing her moist eyes and hold her hands in his....

sid- kya hua baby...... mujhe bolo please.........

his voice was so soft that she couldn't control herself and kept her head on his chest while holding his shirt in her fists tightly and started crying. He immediately wrapped his arms around her and let her cry. He was caressing her baby hair without saying anything and letting her cry. They both were sitting on the bed in same position and after 10 minutes....shehnaaz stopped crying and sidharth was continuously caressing her hair. She looked at him with her red puffy eyes. Sidharth immediately kissed her both eyes and than gave a lingering kiss on her forehead. she was calm now but was still holding his shirt tightly. He looked at her hands and kept his hands on hers.

sid- ab bolo baby....kya hua tumhe.....why u started crying.....haan?

sana- vo....m.....mujhe.........

sidharth wrapped his arm around her shoulder and pulled her towards himself. She didn't say anything and just kept her head on his shoulder.

while closing her eyes she spoke- mujhe un dono girls k liye bhut boora lag rha hai........unki kya galti thi.........iss duniya m log itne khraab kyun hain......kya bilkul bhi insaniyat nahi bachi hai abhi yahan.......koi aise kaise kar skta hai kisi k sath.......vo insaan ko...nhi nhi insaan nhi....vo drinde ko bilkul bhi dar nhi laga hoga....aisa paap krte hue......un ladkiyon ko dekh kar use apni maa, behn nhi yaad aayi hogi......kya uske andar dil nhi hai....aur itna bada paap kar ke.....un do masoom ladkiyon ko tadpa kar marne ke baad vo zinda kaise reh rha hoga...khana kaise kha rha hoga.....vo khush kaise hoga.......(she was again crying while saying all this)

sidharth embraced her in his arms tightly. she was crying continuously and holding sidharth's shirt tightly. sidharth was continuously rubbing her back and was caressing her hair. he was kissing her hair to calm her but he himself was feeling extreme anger inside. he wanted to kill that bastard but right now he controlled his anger because she needed him. he pulled her more into himself.

sana- usko mrna hoga sidharth.....vo jee nhi skta......usko jeene ka haq nhi hai.....ye inhuman kaam krne baad usne apne jeene ka haq kho diya hai.....use mrna hi hoga........

she usually didn't get angry easily but now she didn't realise that she was not crying anymore.....her tears were replacing by anger. she was feeling so much anger inside her that she hold his shirt harshly. sidharth looked at her hands and realised that she was angry. he never saw her angry but he could feel seeing her harsh hold on his shirt that she was angry. He made her look at him and wiped her tears and kissed her forehead.

sid cupped her face lovingly and spoke in his softest tone- calm down baby.....us gandi naali k kide ko saza zroor milegi......aur vo bhi bhut jaldi....tum tension mat lo....okay baby.......police hai na....jaldi pakad le gi use......u don't worry okay......with that he again kissed her eyes which were red but this time because of the anger. he kissed both her eyes with love and she immediately calmed down with his touch and she kept her head on his chest again. he too wrapped his arms around her. They both set there feeling sukoon which was lost from last few days. The restlessness was gone being in each other's embrace. Their eyes were closed and they were at peace being with each other. After sometime.... sidharth broke the hug and spoke.....

sid holding her hand- chlo neeche chalte hain.......

sana- aap chlo m change krke aati hoon and aap log bhi change krlo.....veerji k bhut saare kpde hain yahan pe....m bhijwati hoon.....aap log guest room m chlo tab tak......

sidharth smiled at her and said- okay and kissed her cheek. she too smiled a little with deep red face. Everyone got freshen up in their rooms. shehnaaz came out of washroom wearing......

she was about to go outside when her mobile ranged. It was unknown number but she picked up.....

sana- hello.......

person-....................

sana- hello....who is this?........

pr-.................

sana - hello.....hello.....kon hai......

but no one spoke from the other side. so she cut the call and went downstairs. Everyone had their lunch and went to get some sleep to relax themselves. At night they thought to watch a movie.......

zoya- romantic movie dekhte hain....

krt- no yrr...action movie dekhenge......

zoya- keerat kya hai.... tu kabhi romantic movie dekhne hi nhi deti...har bar action action.....kya hai tujhe....

krt- to tujhe kya hai zoya....vo boring c romantic movies m ni dekh skti.......action movie dekhne k mza hi alag hai.....

Girls were not able to decide and were arguing with each other. Shefu and sana were watching them in disbelief. it was nothing new for them. they were used to see this argument everytime when they planned to watch movie. While an idea struck in boy's mind. They looked at each other and smiled mischievously.

sid- shef, zoya....relax....itni si baat p kya behas kar rhe ho........hum ek kaam krte hain......hum sab horror movie dekhte hain..
.nice idea na.....

asim- yaa bro....ye sbse best hai.......

girls were looking at them with wide eyes and boys were controlling their laughter seeing their horrified , scared faces.

krt- arre no no... it's okk....hum romantic movie hi dekh lete hain.....haina zoya....

zo- haan haan.....aur action movies are always best.......koi bhi dekhlenge.....

kush- arre nhi nhi ab to horror movie hi dekhenge.....

sid- haan abhi man ban gya hai....horror movie dekhne ka to koi aur movie ab achhi bhi nhi lgegi..........

krt- arre yrr......vo.....

kush- kyun tumhe dar lag rha hai.......agar lag rha hai to btado.....badme mat rone lag jana....

krt- oye mundya...... bkwaas ni krni.....dar dur ni lgda menu......hun ta horror movie hi dekhange te dekhde hai kon darda hun......te m rone rune walyan cho ni hai....aaya bda........(said with so much attitude but inside she was scared like hell)

Now the girls had no option so they settled on the sofas and soon movie started. Main lights of the room were off and only dim lights were on. Girls were so engrossed in the movie.......they forgot their surroundings and kept looking at the screen.
sidharth got up from his seat slowly without noticing by anybody except boys and went towards kitchen. He changed his mobile ringtone into a scary tone and walked back and kept the mobile near girl's sofa. He gestured boys and they all got up one by one slowly and hide themselves behind the pillar in the living area. kush called on sidharth's mobile. Listening the voice....

girls jumped out of their seats with fear. kush again did the same and girls started running in the whole living area screaming and boys were laughing uncontrollably holding their stomachs. Shehnaaz was sitting on her seat hiding her face with her hands. she was too scared. She tried to get up from her seat when her eyes fell on the mobile near her sofa on the ground. She took the mobile and saw it was ringing with that scary tone. She immediately got up and went towards the switch board and switched on the main lights. The room was completely messed up..... cushions were scattered on the ground........slippers of girls were scattered and they were running like mad man......shehnaaz was beyond angry ......

she spoke in a loud voice - stop everyone........

hearing her voice......the girls stopped on their places and boys were still hiding. The ringtone was off now. she again spoke in a loud voice.......

sana- boys.... come out........now.........

her voice held such dominance that they came out instantly. everyone was looking at her amazed.....they never thought she could react like that......her eyes were red with anger which scared everyone...... sidharth was looking at her amazed and he was scared too from his baby girl for the first time.....

sana in a calm and deep voice which could scare the hell out of anyone- ye mobile kiska hai...... showing the mobile in her hand.......

Everyone was quite........ sidharth was just looking at her.

she again spoke in the same deep voice- maine puchha ye mobile kiska hai......

sid came forward- shehnaaz...... it's mine....mera hai........

shehnaaz looked at him with so much anger for the first time and the next moment his mobile was on the ground with its screen broken into pieces. She threw the mobile on the ground with such force that everyone move back a little from their places. All were looking at her stunned. Girls were beyond shocked. Never in their life, they saw her behaving like this. Sidharth was too shocked to react. She without saying anything went upstairs .......entered in her room and closed the door with a thud..........
