Stolen Heart [✓]

Part 40

Kartik's POV

I and Naira were very close to each other, our lips were just an inch apart, when I saw him...... Shankar!!

I couldn't believe my eyes! Was I dreaming? I was dead sure that Shankar is dead even I saw his postmortem report.....then how come he came here?

I ran behind him but he sat in a car, I even tried to catch it but failed
miserably.

I came back disappointed as I could not catch him and saw Naira standing there, looking at me with a perplexed face. Yaa! of course, she would be tensed as I left her there and ran like I saw a ghost. As soon as I went towards her and she asked me what was the matter, I tried changing the topic as I didn't want her to be tensed about this, today only she gained her memory back and I don't want her to stress herself after knowing about what was going on, but she clearly told me or rather u can say warned me not to divert the topic.

I sighed as I knew I couldn't hide it from her anymore. I took a deep breath and narrated her all the happenings, I could easily make out from her expressions that she was beyond shocked.

"That means Shankar is back?" She asked, fear was visible in her eyes and her voice as she remembered what he did the previous time.

I took her into my embrace trying to calm her down and assured her that this time I won't let anything happen to her. She hid her face in my chest hugging me tightly while I tightened my hold on her, bringing her even more close to me and caressed her head and placed a kiss there.

We came out of each others embrace after some time and then I asked her, "I think someone else is also involved in this, Shankar can't do all this alone, did u hear anything or see anyone when they kidnapped u?"

"No, I was unconscious right from the time of the accident, I even didn't know that it was Shankar who did all this before u told me" she said

I nodded and then asked her to go back and that I'll be coming after sometime. She was reluctant at first but then agreed and went inside. I sighed and called Rahul, I had noted the no. of the car in which I saw Shankar.

" Rahul, I am coming there, just check the CCTV of all the traffic signals and checkpoints and tell me if u can locate this car." I said hastily, moving towards my car.

He tried asking what was the matter but before that I cut the call and send him the car no. as I ignited the car engine and rushed towards the headquarters.

---------------------------

I reached the headquarters to find Rahul checking the CCTV footage, the traffic police had sent. I went bear him and he asked me what the matter was, "I saw Shankar in that car" I stated, shocking him to the core. "But how?!!..." He tried to say something but was cut by the person checking the footage,"We found it sir!! The car must be somewhere in between these two checkpoints as it crossed the first one and moved towards the second one but didn't reach there". I checked the locations, it was the same area where both SS and GV were located, so I knew the area quite well. There was only one deserted place in the area, where he could hide and moreover it was somewhere in between GV and SS.

I was about to rush to that place that I heard something that shocked me to the core.

"Sir u might be mistaken, this can't be Shankar. I myself have seen his dead body when I went to collect his postmortem report" Rahul said and I stood rooted at my place trying to absorb his words into my head.
