"What do you mean by this? I am asking about my son Mayank Bhadana! Is he okay? I want information about him." Mr. Bhadana yelled at the person on the other side of the call. From the last ten minutes, he had been calling on various helpline numbers but no news about Mayank approached him.

"Sir, the rescue mission is still going on at this moment. And no person named Mayank Bhadana has yet reached here in our hospital." The man on the other side told. Mr. Bhadana instantly cut the call, throwing his mobile on the couch in frustration.

Everything was moving ok before the last one hour. The couple was eating their dinner when Chhaya's mom called Seema, telling her about the news. They were only halfway done with eating at that moment but not a single bite went down their mouth after that.

The news channel informed them that the injured survivors were taken to the three hospitals near the airport. The landline numbers were also provided so the families could contact the hospitals. But all three hospitals announced the same thing. There was no Mayank Bhadana admitted in any of those places.

His heart was pounding. He didn't know what he could do to make sure his son was alright. Seema was shedding streams sitting in the bedroom. She had lost all hope. They couldn't even go to Bangalore. All of the flights were canceled for the time being. Hearing this news she fainted. It took him a lot of effort to shift her to the bedroom from the dining area.

He walked towards the cabinet and took her medicines out. Entering inside the room, he saw her sitting in the same position in which he had left her ten minutes ago. When she saw her husband, she wiped her tears and asked. "Is he ok? They found him right?"

He shook his head in defeat. "You are not trying enough. Give me your phone I will call those numbers." She grumbled getting up.

"Seema please sit down. I am going to call them once again after a minute. We need to stay calm and hope for the best." He said passing her the medicine but she yanked his hand away.

"I need to know my son is alright. Otherwise, there is no reason for me to live. Call them once again." She pleaded.

Sighing, he wandered out of the door towards the couch where his mobile was kept. He picked it up and dialed one of the numbers once again. After muttering some prayers to God, he pressed the call button and waited for someone to pick the call up.

And this time he did hear the news about his whereabouts. And this time it was Mr. Bhadana who felt the ground beneath him moving which made him fall on her ground with a thud.

When Gaurav opened his eyes everything was hazy. His vision was blurry and all he could recognize around him was blood. It took him for than two minutes to realize that he was hanging upside down with the seatbelt holding him.

The last thing he recalled was that the pilot was announcing about their landing. Bracing himself, he sat there holding Netra's hand. As the flight starting lowering for the landing, he turned his head towards Netra and smiled at her. She mouthed an 'I love you' but before he could reply to her back, the plane skidded instead of landing perfectly. He jolted forward and so did the other passengers and the plane bounced up once again in the runaway.

"Brace yourself for the impact." Announced the pilot when he heard a loud noise of blast from outside. He turned his head towards the window and saw the left wing hit the ground first starting up a fire at that side. The sight was terrifying. Before he could brace him and glance at Netra, the plane took a 180-degree turn. The screams and cries filled inside the plane making him panic. His head hit the seat in front of him hard and he lost his consciousness at the next moment.
