Sidharth: Lekin tum yaha kya kar rahi ho? Dekho I have been pretty clear with you years back and I am being clear and honest with you even today. I don't want to marry you. I don't want to marry anyone just like that. I have told you I don't believe in the concept of arrange marriage. And now I don't even believe in the concept of love anymore. 

Please understand me.. and go ahead in your life. I am glad that you choose to defend me.. save me.. but please don't go beyond now. I don't want to be rude with you... but being really honest you are being irritating these days. Why are you roaming around me all the time? Earlier you had a reason - You wanted to make sure I am doing good as a lawyer but now there's nothing that could trouble me. Whatever is happening be it with Sana Kaur or my family it's my personal life.. I know how to deal with that. I don't really need a lawyer that's you. I am grateful for everything you did for me. But now you really need to stop. 

Riya looked at him, not reacting anything. 

Riya : Since when have you started feeling irritated with me being around you? 

Sidharth closed his eyes being frustrated. 

Riya : I didn't really had any interest in you. But your parents.. they told me you realised that you shouldn't have ran away from our marriage destination like that. They told me you regretted it and you kind off started liking me later. You know I was all happy in my life. They begged me saying you are just behaving childish and that bitch is manipulating and playing with your mind just to get your hard earned money from your fucking ass. I don't like you as anything else but yes I do like you as a friend. And I always stand for my friends. 

I stayed with you stucked like that because I didn't want you to meet that slut. Why the fuck do you think I would want to or even think of even saying yes to marrying you? When you literally like a coward ran away.. when you are nothing just a casanova who loves to fuck sluts. 

Here look at this picture. Bro I already have someone who loves me with everything he has. I don't really need to marry a casanova like you. Fuck you! I hope that slut comes back to you. You only deserve her. 

She left the chair assembled her bag and started to leave. 

Sidharth: Oh please don't play bold now. Forget my parents. They never understand me. Rather I don't want anyone to understand me. But didn't I tell you that I loved that so called slut. I told you this the first day you came to me. I never asked you to plant false evidences against her. Nor did I ever ask you to set up special so called interrogations camps so that those cops in the name of interrogation could torture her. Rather i wanted you to be a honest lawyer who focuses on defending her client. Didn't I tell you let her go? Idk whatever she did with me? 

Yes, you are right she fucking fooled me. She fucking just wanted to use me. But wasn't she the one who obliged with you  to confess her true motives indirectly. May be she was just doing this for the money I paid to her or the way I treated her. But whatever it is she did. I still love her.. I know it's foolish but I can't help it. Whereas you on the other hand took lumsum payment from my dad for cheating the profession you earn your livelihood from. 

You did everything just for a client not for someone you considered as a friend. Because If you did you would have never taken that high payment from my parents. You think I am a fool? No I am not. 

Riya : interesting. Someone who gets fooled by a slut didn't get fooled by a lawyer. Now I wonder if you really loved her. But even if you did.. it's so sad she didn't. She used you and threw you away like an use n throw pen. Alas Mr. Shukla. 

................ ................. 

2 Weeks Later Sidharth went missing from his own house. 

The media went berserk and so did his parents. His business was getting better when he rejoined office but it was again in a path of decline. No one knew where was he.. his card his phone, his car everything was at his home except for him. 

One such morning was today,

his father was reading the newspaper randomly when he went numb with the headline. 

" Industrialist Sidharth Shukla - found severely injured " reading the article more he found out the destination it said - in a less occupied highway Wednesday midnight 2pm .

 He rushed out from the house to reach the hospital mentioned in the  newspaper.

FLASHBACK. 

Sidharth : Shehnaaaaaz! 

Shehnaaz turned back abruptly being shocked. 

Shehnaaz : Wtf! Tum yaha kya kar rahe ho? Kaise aaye yaha? Aur kyu? 

Sidharth: Yeh sb kya chal raha h? Aur tum yeh khoon kya hua tumhe? 

Shehnaaz : Shhh.. dheere bolo.. dekho tum jao yaha se..

Sidharth: lekin tum yeh sb.. 

Shehnaaz : yeh sb btane karne ka time nhi h tum chup chap jao yaha se.. waha dekho unn trees pe red marks h inko follow krte krte jao tum pauch jaoge.. chale jao please.. samjho baat ko. 

Sidharth: Thik hai tum bhi chalo mere saath.. he said holding her hands. 

Shehnaaz : M kahi nhi jaa sakti jao.. tum jao isse phle ki koi tumhe yaha dekhle. 

Shehnaaz pushed him towards the trees, : Kyu khade ho? Samajh nhi aa rhi tumhe baat? Kaha na jao yaha se samjhte kyu nhi tumhara yaha ek min bhi rehna safe nhi h.. 

Sidharth: Nhi aa raha h mujhe kuch smjh aur smjhna bhi nh h.. tumhe kyu fikr ho rahi h meri? Tumhe kya fark padhta h?  jiyu yah maru? 

Shehnaaz closed her eyes...  she goes close to him and cups his face. 

Shehnaaz : Meri baat suno please tum.. 

He moves back from her. 

Sidharth: Don't touch me. Don't. I don't want to hear or understand anything. Jab tum mujhe nhi samajhti mujhe bhi naah kuch samjhna h naah kuch sunna h.. main..  tutt chuka hu puri tarah se.. Do you understand? I am nothing but just a dead soul... aur tumne todha h mujhe.. tumne.........
