"I'd like to say we gave it a try
I'd like to blame it all on life
Maybe we just weren't right,
But that's a lie,
That's a lie"

The kind man's house,Delhi

Lucky have said that he remembers his family and have gone to meet them,if they would accept him,after all he and Aasira ran away.

He have left Naaz here,not sure how his parents would react to him.

She doesn't speaks neither looks at the man who gave them shelter.She have been adopted two times,first one was a abusive family and the second time they have got her home as a maid and not as a daughter and the reward to him saying he's his daughter, the doctor and policemen adviced him to keep her and he is until Lucky comes back.

He drinks and the days pass by, like trains on the station,like the happy moments we want to stay forever.

Hah! Alcohol makes him poetic.

He heard a loud thud as he woke up,falling down to the ground as he heard a loud scream.

Who's screaming at this time?

It's night for god's sake,let him sleep.He is a tired man been one from last two years.

Another scream,shut up for god's sake.

It's the girl,the girl!

What was her name?

"Girl"he calls out " Narnia?"

Muffled voices and another scream " sir"the girl screams.

He walks down to the ground floor as fast as he can,as a man slaps the girl.

"Bloody whore,you wanna run"the man spat slapping her across her face,his ring streaking a thin line of blood across her cheek.

"Run now"another one said as he picked the vase from the table and smashed it on her feet "Run"

The girl screamed in pain and horror as they stuffed a cloth in her mouth.

He just stood there,trying to process as he ran towards them and they ran outside, throwing the girl into a jeep.

One of them picked up a pot from his garden,the plant his wife planted have dried and withered.The man threw at his head and he fell down on the ground as the girl tried to free herself.

Begging him with tear stained eyes to help,he searched for his phone,trying to dial the police,he couldn't see anything the phone was blurry and so was the red liquid dropping on his phone's screen,he wiped it but it comes again and again.

They took the little girl!!!

The girl!!!!

His breath went shallower as the vision blackened out.His head ached,they hit his head,he's

He lost the girl.

He lost his wife,then his daughter and now,they took the girl.

"I thought only we did this"Samar shouted looking at the empty coffee mugs and pointing at the space between Kabir and him with a fake sob when he reached the discussion room to pick some files up and found Anaya and Kabir asleep on the table with shitloads of pages below their heads .
