THIRD PERSON POV:-

When the guys reached the top floor what they saw was not that the expected there sat a man in the middle of room all bloodied bruised and on verge of dying tied up on a chair while he wore a bomb jacket by one look viraj recognized him as the leader of the gang who were involved along with the Russian he definitely didn't except Russian to be betrayers but what can he say he has been coming wrong for past few days he signaled one of men to go towards the man and see if he was still alive the guard looked at him and ran back to us aid "sir hume bhar nikalna hoga vo bomb kabhi bhi phat sakta hai" Viraj couldn't risk any of men's life so sent the command on earpiece for everyone to move out of the building and when they all were at a safe distance the building blasted and was set up on fire.

VIRAJ'S POV

We headed to our mafia building. I went straight to the meeting room and head of the teams along with Akash. I was in rage. They fooled us and I could do nothing. We almost had them. Almost had that asshole's head.

I tore out the plan sheet hanging on the board. I shouted " Mujhe abhi ke abhi naya plan chahiye. Aur sari info nikalo unpe. Next plan fail nahi hona chahiye kisi bhi kimat pe." Akash nodded made few more instructions and I took my jacket and on my way made sure those five duffers left for there home and then called Akash and Karan and left the building.

It was almost 1pm when we reached home whole way home my mind was covered with Leher's though all I want now is a hug from her to calm down we got down and made our way in.

I thought I would be welcomed with either silence or ma at the entree but I was wrong, instead there was someone crying I looked at Akash who was already looking at me and we passed a 'don't know' look to each other. We sprinted towards the living room to see ma crying her eyes out while Aryan was also sobbing.

Akash asked "kya hua ma aap ro kyu rahe ho" and I passed a look to Aryan in hope for an answer I started looking around for Leher who is usually the first one to come running when any of the family member is crying but I couldn't find her.

I walked towards kitchen to see if she was there but she was not she wouldn't be in office so.........then it struck me, but I just didn't want to believe the fact. I ran back to the living room and asked "ma Leher kaha hai" but all she did was to cry more. I stared at her and she finally spoke "Leher mil nahi rahi" I looked at her wide eyed. We all were shocked. Karan asked again "Apne pakka pura ghar dekh liya?" Maa replied "Beta subha se sab log sirf usse hi dhund rahe hai"

Aryan said with a muffed voice "Unka phone bhi off aa raha hai" I was baffled. Where would have she gone without telling anyone. Then my brain played the part of last night where she was packing all her stuff and saying about leaving. I ran upstairs to check the closet. Everyone else followed and I could sense that some of her clothes were missing. The worst nightmare came true. The idea I didn't want to believe was forcing me into it.

She couldn't just leave me like that. No.... she wouldn't do that to me. She can't leave me like this. No.... No.... She...... She can't...... I turned around and a guard came in to hand me a small box. The first thought was "Leher" I opened the box as quickly as possible hoping to see a note or something.... anything about why she would leave like that. But the content inside just put fear in my heart. It was Leher's and Aryan's photos in different directions and places and from different angles.

And the last photo was of Leher with a red cross drawn on it. My blood was boiling at this point. I tried to think who..... and it struck me "Bloody Son of bitches, Russian" For a moment I forgot that the family was present there and they didn't knew about it. Before I could close the lid, maa gasped at the picture. It was too late and I knew it. I held my head in my hands and tried to calm myself down. I needed to handle the situation.

She looked at me with fear and anger in her eyes and asked "kisne kiya hai ye sab!! Viraj mujhe abhi ke abhi janna hai kya chal raha hai. Tu itna late kabhi nahi hua. Aur wo bhi itne time ke liye. Ek din tak samajh aata hai. Par tujhe ek mahina ho gya hai ghar pe dikhe hue." I knew I had no other choice but to reveal the truth.

I sighed and started talking "maa, Russian mafia ne humpe attack kiya tha. Yaad hai na jab Leher ko hath pe goli lagi thi." She nodded "Toh ek mahine se wahi chal raha hai. Tabhi mei raat ko late aa raha tha aur tabhi mai karwa chauth wale din nahi aa paya. Kal raat ko humne unpe attack kiya tha. Iss liye me ghar nahi aya" She nodded again and said "Par Leher?" I told her " Ha mai janta hu, please apne aap ko sambhaliye maa." I signaled the servant standing nearby to take her to her room.

As she was out of sight I fell on the sofa. From over exertion and tension of Leher. It just can't be. I still can't believe she isn't here. That she left. She left me. It can't be. I want her here. I know I just can't live without her. Without her presence. Its killing me.

LEHER'S POV:-

I sat there in the closet crying my eyes out while my so called husband didn't even care to look at me. I picked up my phone and called someone I think I can trust.
?-hello Leher?
L- hello
? - beta sab thik tah hai na ihni late call kita tu.
(English translation of the above dialogue- Is everything ok? You called up so late at night)
L- nahi bas ase he , mai na kuch dino ke liye free thi toh maine socha ki mai apse milne aa jati hu or baki sab se bhe mil lungi agar apko koyi problem na ho toh.
? - beta tera ghar hai tu kabhi bhi aja mujhe kya problem hogi. Ab bata tu kab ayegi.
L- kal
? - aja, aram se aiyo. Viraj bhi ayega na sath?
L- nahi unhe kam hai mai akele hi aungi.
? - hum tera wait karenge.
L- Bye
? - bye beta

I moved out of the closet, packed a hand bag with necessary items like charger, my skin care, or anything that I could need.

Time skip

It was 5 in the morning when I left, I took the bags and made my way down. I started walking out but a voice stopped me "leher" I wasn't expecting anyone to be awake. When I turned around it was dadu
" hanji dadu"
" kithe jandi paye hai puttar" (English translation of the above dialogue: Where are you going) he said as he looked at my suitcase.
I couldn't answer him. I chose silence but he understood meaning of my silence.
"bache ave na kar mainu pata hai Viraj galat hai par tu ghar chad kar na ja. Apna dimag shant kar phir shoch ke tainu jana hai ke nahi"
(English translation of the above dialogue: I know Viraj did wrong to you but please don't leave the house)
"dadu abhi mujhe rokna mat. Agar mai yaha par rahi toh mai kuch galat na bol du. Jo bacha khucha rishta hai usse bache rehne do"

Before he could say anything I touched his feet and made my way the garage sat in my car and drove out. I saw the guards following me I had to do something to loose them. I speed up my car turned in different directions and finally tricked them. A sigh of relief slipped my lips just as tiny pearls in my eyes.
