~My passion will either be my end or triumph. ~

ADAH,

This man didn't have much to do. Yet he knows it all. He was awake with me the whole night while he just sat on a fashion stool with his cold jacked on my legs, hands away from me. Probably because he didn't want me to feel unsafe.

Or probably because he is disgusted.

I watched him nodding off just in the sitting position, when he came back to reality, wide awake. I don't know why? But a giggle ran through my throat which I restrain. For hours he heard me nagging, sobbing. And when I dozed off. He probably must have nodded off
too.

He looked up at me, his eyes puffy and face swollen. He must be tired. "You are awake? " He asked me. Looking at me, rubbing his eyes.

"You should go back home. Or just sleep on the couch, it's late." I told him. He watched the couch for a brief flicker of seconds, and then looked at me. "Are you okay?" he asked me. I gave him a polite nod. "Yes, I am," I told him.
Honestly.

I was not as bad as I should be.

He stood up, probably to leave. And I didn't want him to leave but I can't say it to him. Getting his t-shirt to straighten his gaze transferred to me. "I think you should rest and not on the couch. I'd go and seek Adarsh and get things in place" He told to me and took off.

I saw him going out and shutting the door behind me, I closed my eyes, reciting it all once again. And looked down realising that he forgot his jacket. I stood up, running behind when before the turn for the elevator lobby could come. I heard him talking loudly.

"I did what you asked me for. Now tell me who was responsible for Misha's death?!" He squealed at the call.

The reason he came back to India was to find out Misha's murderer. Me?

I couldn't bring myself to take a step ahead and show him my face right after he unknowingly accused me. He said it himself earlier, that she died before the equipment could kill her, with a mid-surgery cardiac arrest.

Would he still remember it? When he will find out I am the one?

The two elevators beside me opened and shut. And he must have left.

I turned when I felt a hand on my back. I was jumpy, even though I know who it would be. But it was Adarsh. He saw my horrified face. His expression stretched "What are you doing out?" He implored. I rolled my eyes.

"I think you lost the right to ask me that!" I sneered at him. "Didn't he-" he began but I cut him off giving my answer.

"Oh, he did. You send it to me so that he can run your bid of explanation! On the accords that you will tell him I murdered his lover." I shrieked at him. His frown grew deeper.

Like he was frustrated and tired. Closing his eyes and rubbed his forehead.

"I came to take you." He revealed out of blue. I twitched my brow. "Take me where?" I asked him. He gripping my wrist. Which I was about to snatch away. But his eyes made me do it otherwise. "I'm just as tired as you! Okay, but I wanna do something," he said to me. My frown went deeper this time.

I just let him drag me. When he took me in the elevator, closing the door. "When did that Germany leave?" he asked between the growing silence.

"He has a name!" I yelled at him. "And it's Rahaan. He did a great favour for you. And whatever he said was trying to convince me that you are not that worst. How will he realise that you are equally responsible for the death?" I told him.

He laughed. "You think consequences are what I am scared of? Tell me that after you see what have I done," he said to me laughing.

Again the silence.

We were going to god knows where on the way. While be was sitting beside me in silence. My head ran over for the question.

"The photos? Does he have them? Did you see them?" I asked him. He hummed a reply.

He has. He does. "But don't worry that has been taken care of." He said to me. My eyes fell over my fidgeting fingers.

"How many people saw it?" I asked him. His eyes fluttered my way. "Don't let this thing cross you. This is exactly why I never wanted to let this slip!" He said hitting on his steering wheel.

I jumped at his anger a little but not too much, so it might become awkward. He turned his head back and forth. Throughout the ride. And then parked the car somewhere.

It was his old villa that he haven't been using for a while now since he has a lot of memories with his mother here. It was a beach house. And the night's seashore was gleaming with this melodic sound ringing in my ear. Making me feel a hundred times better now.

He was silent. Before he got off the car.

Coming my way. When I too close it behind him. "You took me to a beach? When I don't even want to look at  you?" I asked him rolling my eyes. He shook his head as he started to walk back side of the villa. I followed him behind. The door to the basement, as I too ducked and went inside.

Loud yelling and screaming rang throughout, the closer I went in.

What did Adarsh do?

I freaked out and my thoughts were right. Indeed the man was there, lying while two broad men were beating the shit out of him. His grey pants bleeding more aggressively than his whole body.

"Do you want to feed his balls to dogs yourself?"
