DAUGHTER

Chapter : 56

Hope galloped into the woods as she began gasping for some air, she took the support of a tree to stand and breathe for a second. She took a deep breath and looked back as she saw Sam's guards with guns still trying to look for her.
She steadily took a few steps trying to hide behind a bush but she stumbled upon the slippery ground and fell into the bushes.

Hey! I heard something there. *One of the guards said and ran into the woods as the other one followed*

Meanwhile, Hope was making an effort not to make any noise and stay immobile even though she was hurt poorly as she saw her pants got ripped at the knee and it didn't stop bleeding. She pulled the sleeves of her sweater towards her wrist to cover the wound and pressed it to stop the blood.

She closed her eyes as a drop of sweat rolled down her head because of the pain she was going through. She tried to stand up but heard the guns unlocking and decided to stay there quietly.

She glanced through the bushes and saw a guard was coming straight in her direction as she panicked and closed her eyes.

Hey! I think she must've run towards her hostel. Let's not waste another moment and go after her. She cannot stay alive, otherwise, you know what our boss will do. *One of the guards said nervously*

I know, that's why I'm trying to find her. I don't wanna die too. *The other guard raised his voice in frustration*

Really? Because it seems like you want to, it feels like you're walking in a park or something. I'm trying to find her. I am working hard and you're just strolling.*One of them raised his voice even louder on the other one*

Who the hell are you to decide? I am here to save my life. That little girl made a fool of you and you couldn't do anything. *The other guard exclaimed angrily and walked towards the first one as one of his guns fell from the pouch he had wrapped around the ankle of his right leg*

You wanna do this? Let's do this. *They were about to fight when one of the guard's phones started ringing as it was Sam on the call*

Hope was controlling her breath and trying to be inaudible as even in the woods there was an abyss of silence, it felt like not even a single bird was trying to communicate with each other, all she could hear was the slow water drops, the dew which formed the crystal coating over the leaves overnight was melting and dropping continuously from the leaves to the ground which created a tiny trench of water under the trees.

Both the guards paused and looked at each other as they realised that they were losing the track of time and again proceeded with their mission to search for Hope and end her life as they knew the outcome if they chose to fight and lose her instead of searching for her and finish the job.

Hope saw both of them scooting off as she stretched her hands and grabbed the gun. The moment she stood up she became the victim of a small landslide as she glid into the nearby pit.

Hope was exhausted and in pain but she managed to gather herself up and made sure that all the documents were safe in her bag, all the proof that she collected to prove Sam's evilness and deception were unharmed.

Hope sat there waiting for the time to pass by quickly so she could go back to her original timeline. She had red eyes because of the continual pain she was having which was aroused by the wound on her knees. She started sobbing thinking that every decision of hers are attacking back instead of working properly.

She was hurt and shivering because she fell into that water pit, the wound and the cold weather were breaking Hope's will in pieces gradually. She was shivering hoping the time to pass by as promptly as possible.

I shouldn't have asked Mr Sharma to increase the "time for stay" to longer than half an hour. See what it has done? I forgot the watch too, I can't even transmit the signals to him that I need to come back right now. They both must be waiting for time to get over on its own.*Hope sobbed*

Please bring be back Professor. *Hope had tears in her eyes*

Hope was getting dizzy but she forced herself to stay vigilant and not to become unconscious as she heard the footsteps again. Hope saw one of the guard's back as he moved backwards in Hope's direction. Hope gathered her strength and held the gun tight pointing towards the guard.

Her hands were shivering due to cold and fear but she managed to stand up aiming the gun right at the guard.
She took a step forward trying to stay as quiet as possible. She put her finger on the trigger waiting for the guard to look back so she could attack him before he could.

There was a loud noise of a gunshot as Hope gasped while shivering and being completely voiceless. She looked at her gun as it wasn't her who pulled the trigger. She looked down and clasped the left side of her back as it was no one but her who got shot by another guard who came from the other side.

She fell to the ground while struggling to breathe. She looked at the guard with her red eyes as tears were constantly rolling down from the eyes to the ground whilst she was shivering from pain.

You're an idiot. Your father was an idiot too. *Another guard said who shot Hope from behind as he walked towards her*

Aww! Losing so much blood honey? I could shoot you too but that would be an easy death. *The other guard walked toward Hope as well*

We dwelled in constant fear of losing our life. Sam could've killed us. Enough with your games girl. Now give us those freaking documents back and have a nice death you stupid brat.*The guard said and snatched the document from Hope*

They were about to walk away as one of the guards said.

"Take the gun back from her"

No, let her keep that gun in her last moments. She'll enjoy playing with toys just like she should instead of finding out the truths about other people's business. *The guard said and walked away as the other one followed*

Hope struggled to breathe as she was in severe pain, the bleeding was heavy and unstoppable that she couldn't even move at all and stayed in a position so she could stop losing so much blood.

Have you checked it carefully?*Sam called and asked his security guard*

Yes! Boss, I can assure you that Hope is dead *The guard told him before leaving Hope there to die gradually in pain*

Just... A.. Little... Longer... Hope... For dad... For mom...*Hope stammered as she was gasping for life whilst trembling*
