"Its 4 am, she has never been late for yoga but today its 15 minutes ahead of her wake up time", Hannah said to the make up guy.
"May be she wants to wakeup fresh for tonight", Jack said, the make up guy.
"But she considers yoga a refreshing activity,something is not right!", Hannah replied.
She had been trying to contact Alisa but her number was powered off. It was her intuition that something is not right therefore she was getting unsettled.
"Why are you so considerate, she has always been a witch to you?", Jack asked .
"Somethings are meant to be observed and felt, not all can understand her considerate nature behind the, so called witch, you people call her!!", Hannah defended Alisa and walked out of the room.
"Have you by any chance seen Alisa around", she had gone the staff sitting at the reception.
"No ma'am, we havent seen any celebrity walk pass the reception for past 4 hours", a staff member named Stephanie replied.
"Is everything okay ma'am?", shift incharge asked Hannah.
"I hope so!, Thank you for the information".
"If you need any help we are here ma'am", Stephanie and shift incharge both passed a professional smile.
Hannah smiled back and hasted towards elevator..
In the elevator she called James,Alisa's security incharge.
After six, seven rings he picked.
"Whats up Hannah!, Why are you calling at this hour?",his voice was sluggish.
"Wake up James", Alisa is not responding and she didnt wake up for yoga as well, something is not right.
James voice changed suddenly, "what do you mean? Where is she?"..
"I have no idea James get out of bed I am standing outside your room",Hannah spoke in a haste.
"Okay,okay give me a minute", James replied as he got out of his bed.
Moments after he joined Hannah in the corridor outside his room.
"Lets go,knock at her door, you know the pattern ," Hannah looked at James in a distress.
"Why are you so restless,Hannah", James asked in a considerate tone.
"I dont know please just go", she replied.
"Okay", James said in a crisp tone.
"She looked upset after the incident and media had made it even worse by attacking her with personal comments ", Hannah continued the journey recalling the incident.
As they reached the door of Alisa's room.James knocked at it in a particular manner. He tapped the door thrice, then knocked twice, repeated the procedure four times but there was no response.
"She has never slept like this", she must have taken some relaxant, James spoke to Hannah.
"Can we check in the security footage, may be we get a clue!", Hannah asked James.
"Oh thats a fantastic idea, but will she go out alone during this mess?", James asked Hannah as if she had stated something absurd.
"There is only one way to find out, lets go to reception and tell them our concern", Hannah said .
She was working at every possible solution , why was she considerate and where did her loyality come from.It was something out of ordinary.
"Excuse me!" Hannah went back to reception with James.
"Yes ma'am, are you still unable to contact Miss Alisa?", Stephanie asked politely.
"Yes we need to check the security footage. Can you assist us ?", James asked Stephanie in his crunch tone.
"Umm sure sir, but we have a lot of pressure of incoming and outgoing celebrities, let me check with the hotel manager", Stephanie said in a polite tone.
Hannah and James kept standing at the repection while Stephanie dialled through a dialler placed in front of her.
"Where is the shift incharge," Hannah was talking with James.
"Was he here?" James asked in a manly fashion.
"Yes he was," Hannah nodded.
"Sir, ma'am please follow me, manager has requested you both to come in his office" Stephanie interrupted their conversation..
"Yes sure, lets go!" Hannah responded in a jiffy.
"Welcome both of you, Stephanie told me about your concern but we have some code of conduct. We cant disturb any guest's privacy and especially a person of this stature", manager raised his limitation to both James and Hannah.
"We are her crew members and our concern is valid. We havent been in contact with her for some hours now", Hannah spoke to manager in a concerned tone.
"I understand your point but please understand my point as well. I am bound to follow procedure", manager confronted them with a logical reply.
"Whats the standard procedure?", James enquired.
"Please wait for sometime may be she responds!"manager again was trying to ease them both.
"Lets not bother her, but atleast we can see camera footage outside her room for anything?", James tried changing his mind.
"Ok that is possible", manager agreed finally at something.
"Thank you", Hannah looked a bit releaved.
"Please follow me to the server room", manager asked them politely.
Hannah looked all over the place to see if she can catch Alisa's glimpse but there was nothing she found.
They reached the room and manager asked the operator to rewind the footage from 16th floor lobby.
"How much time rewind you need sir", operator asked.
"Until you see Alisa entering her room", manager ordered him.
Every one had their eyes glued to screen and the operator rewinded.
There was nothing in the footage as yet ,they had increased the frame rate to max in order to save time.
'Footage was being played at max rate until a movement occured... "Stop stop" James shouted.
The door of Alisa's room opened but no one had come out of it. A few moments later a girl came out in hoodie and panajmas and locked the door.
"What?? You got to be kidding me. Is that Alisa? She never goes out like this, whats going on here", Hannah lost her composure as she saw a girl moving out of Alisa's room...
