IshqYug ~ An Era Of Love

II : Ghum Hai Voh

- "Where Are You?"

----------

Singhania Mansion | Late Evening of the Same Day

The day grew darker, it was soon late evening as the city got busy as usual. The night sky was pitch black with a few twinkling stars and the ever beautiful crescent-shaped moon.

"It has turned black too soon.." Bani murmured to herself, drawing the window-curtains.

She turned back to look at the door, "And where is this veer now? I never seen him stay away from home till this hour, after marriage.." she rolled her eyes with a slight trace of worry.

Meanwhile downstairs, Balwant wrecked havoc on not seeing his son until now.

"Where is Veer??" he screamed at all of them, the Singhania men stood terrified.

"Didn't you here me? I'm asking you where is Veer??" he stormed closer to Pawan and Monil.

Bani rushed out of the room hearing the chaos and saw the scene up from the stairs.

"Bh-- Bhai saab.. may be Veer..is--is out on some business work..!" Pawan stumbled.

"No, bade paapa.. Veer bhai may be partying tonight!" Ponky guessed.

"You idiots! Veer is not on a business trip nor partying!! His car keys are right here.. he has not been anywhere.. then where the hell did he go all of a sudden??" Balwant let out his frustration.

Pawan, Daksh, Monil and Ponky were left clueless.

"Tapish has been abroad on a company deal.. and where is this bloody Shukla!?" Balwant called in fury, "Shukla! Shukla.. where are you, are you even alive?"

Shukla came running and said taking deep breaths, "Y--yes Balwant saab! I'm here!"

Balwant fumed in anger and shouted holding his collar, "You fool! I've been searching for my son madly and you appear now after vanishing since last night!?"

Bani, who was watching all of this, with worry now felt something strange.

Shukla mumbled something but was interrupted by Balwant, "Have I not told you that Veer has to stay away from his dangerous enemies?? You said you have arranged tight security and all.. then how could he go out of the house at this time??"

Hearing this, Bani ran down and exclaimed, "Daddyji! Veer is not out now, but is not here since morning!"

Balwant now grew more worried and yelled at her, "What? Since morning?? Inspite of my restriction, how did he go out in daylight??" he suddenly turned towards Bani, "Hey you, Aadi Naagin! Don't tell me you have done something to my son! Did you??"

Bani defended, "Noo! I didn't do anything to him! In fact, I myself am searching for him since few hours.. moreover I don't have a need to take him somewhere else and attack, I can do that right here! So, better think before accusing me Daddyji!" she warned.

Her words went in a deaf's ear. Balwant kept on strolling restlessly as the others kept gazing him. Then he finally uttered, "Shukla.. I'm sensing some danger.. just go with how many ever men you want, search every possible place but return only with my son beside you.. now go!!"

Shukla obeyed instantly and left the hall, calling a few men on phone and giving them some instructions.

Here, Bani stood confused, not to know of what to do. She looked at the way Shukla went and thought in her mind, "No matter who trusts this Shukla.. but atleast I'll never do that mistake! This disloyal eagle was involved with that Shakura and Mayuri in harming me.. and killing Veer! Now, he is acting like he's searching him.." she gritted her teeth, "I don't know but I'm sure this man is involved behind Veer's missing.. but where is he?? How will I find him now?"
