Kissing A Devil (Complete and Continuing In The Sequel)

Chapter 47

"Sidharth Raichand, where is he? Where is Pranab? What did you do to him? Where is Pranab?"
Sidharth gazes at her and Sana asks, "Pranab is your husband. Go and look for him in your house. Why are you here and why are you asking Sidharth about him?"
Bani walks towards him, "Sid knows where he is. That's why I am asking him. Tell me Sid, where is Pranab?"
"Sidharth Raichand, address me properly. I am not Sid for you."
Bani clutches his shirt, "To hell with you and your name. I want Pranab. Where is he?"
Sidharth removes her hands and pushes her back, "Behave properly. Don't you dare touch me. I don't know where Pranab is. Now get the hell out of my house."

Bani clenches her teeth, "I have no interest to be here. I know it's you. You have kept him hidden or perhaps you have killed him by now. Tell me the truth."
"Shut up. Sidharth hasn't done anything like that. Why would he? Stop accusing him."
"Pranab and I had an argument. I left him at the restaurant and returned home. He didn't come back after that night. I filed a missing complaint after waiting for 24 hours. Police said he was last seen at the bar with Sidharth Raichand. They were seen arguing. He must have done something to him out of anger. Did you kill him?"

Sana immediately says, "Fine he was last seen with Sidharth and they had an argument. But that doesn't mean he has killed your husband. Why would he?"
"Shehnaaz Raichand, you don't know your husband. He has his reasons to kill Pranab. He wants me back. He has always wanted me. He had used me once and he wants that again. He is a bloody womaniser."
A tight slap lands on her face.
"Don't you dare say rubbish about my husband. It is not he who wants you, but you who is desperate for him. And perhaps it's you who has hidden or killed Pranab. Possible, isn't it?"
Bani stares at her holding her cheek, "You are making a mistake by trusting him. You don't know what he did to me. You know nothing about us."
"I know everything, Bani Dalal. You were his mistake. Yes. That's the word he used for you. There was nothing between you both. Now just f*** off."

"I am going right now but I will come back. This time I will be with the police."
"Jaa apne saath military bhi le aana. You can't touch him. He is Sidharth Raichand. Remember that."
Bani leaves the house and Sidharth calls his men.
After they arrive Sidharth says, "Look for Pranab."
He then makes a call.
"DCP, I am sending my men to the traffic control office. They need to check the traffic camera footage.."
".."
"Yes. Pranab Dalal."
".."
"Hmm.."
He dials another number.
"Find out if anyone has got any contract for kidnapping or killing Pranab Dalal."

"Sidharth, what is going on?"
Sidharth sits down on his chair and leans on its back, closing his eyes.
"Sidharth.."
"What? What do you need to know?"
"Pranab is missing and you were seen with him the last time. "
"Yes, I was with him the night we fought. So what? Do you believe I have kidnapped him too or killed him?"
"Sidharth Raichand, Did I say anything of those? I want to know, did you meet him? That's all."
Sidharth rubs his temples, "I was at the bar that night when I saw him. He was drunk and broken. He confronted me about me having an affair with his wife. I told him the truth. "

"Truth? You mean what you had with Bani?"
Sidharth doesn't answer.
"Oh! Well you did the right thing."
"I called a taxi and sent him home. If he didn't go there then where did he go?"
"Do you think she did something to him?"
Sidharth gazes at her, "I don't know. She is sick. She has something for me. And Pranab had understood that."
Sana with a look of disgust, "She is a b****. Apne Pati ko chod mere Pati par Dore dal rahi hai. Kamini kahiki."

Sidharth raises his eyebrows and Sana asks, "What?"
"You sounded so much like those aunties on daily soaps. Dore? Like seriously?"
"Hain toh sahi kaha na. She does that. The way she looks at you, it feels she is going to eat you alive. Mujhe Mann karta hai, khinch ke ek chamaad chadadun, uski aankhein noch lun, kamini."
Even in such a tense situation, a smile appears on Sidharth's face.
