JOURNEY WITH SAF ACADEMY

GOLDEN EMERALD EARRINGS.

" Destiny is not something that's already decided. You have to make it work with the person you want the most. You have to keep trying, if you really want to make it work. But at times, efforts also go in vain " ~ anonymous.

The bus started with a jerk and the engine roared. Sid was smiling with his thoughts. He is interrupted when Monami pinches him. 
' Ab bata. Wo message kya tha? Aur tu gaya kaha tha? Tujhe pata hai mai kitna darr gayi thi?'she whispered to him in an angry tone, still pinching him. 
His face was now frowned. Clearly in pain. 
' Chodegi tab bataoonga na ' he whispered back. Monami finally stopped, leaving a blood red mark on his skin. 

' Monu, mujhe mera goal mil gaya ' he said with dreamy eyes. Monami was confused. 
' Matlab? Kaha dekh ke bol raha hai?? Look at me ' she said. But as she followed the direction his honey dripping eyes were looking in, she figured out a new and bigger problem was going to come. Sanjana. 

' No Sid, i already warned you' she said with gritted teeth. Sid frowned. 

Karan and Faizi were talking about the mission. As soon as they would reach the academy, the mission will be explained to the cadets and their duties will be assigned. But they wanted to keep Monami and Sid involved. Since, they already had seen a couple of faces. 

' Monami aur Siddharth ko kaise involve kare? Unhe academy me bhi nahi chod sakte ' Faizi pondered. 

' Disguise me leke jaana padega. Aur Siddharth ko kehna, he will work with the technical team, apne drones saath me rakhe. Rohit aur uski team bhi aa rahe hai mission me hamara support karne ke liye. Unhone kuch devices banaye hai. GPS trackers like. Ek baar ye device un agents ki body par lag gaye, then hum cadets to waha se nikal kar, khud unka picha kar sakte hai'. Karan said. Always ready with a plan and solutions. 

' Hmm... isse unki jaan bhi zyaada khatre me nahi hogi. Wo restaurant and bar( location of the operation. Read previous chapters) bahar se to kaafi normal lag raha tha' Faizi asked. 

' Rajeev gaya tha waha. bahar se wo sirf ek restaurant and baar dikhta hai but  Ek underground building hai. Second floor pe saari dealings hoti hai. Aur third floor pe Casino hai. Second floor pe jo dealings hoti hai uska saara paisa third floor ke casino me daal dete hai. The more the money, the more the gamblers. Par normal lifts underground building me nahi jaati. Hume terrace se secret lift leni hogi. unhone use washroom jaise dikhaya hai but wo lift sidha ground floor par rookti hai . Restaurant ke workers ko bhi nahi pata ki restaurant ke niche koi underground building hai. Problem ground floor par aayegi. Waha par maximum security alloted hai. Aur waha par checking hogi. We have to have good disguise. Warna hum bhot jaldi pakde jayenge.' Karan answered. 

' Iska matlab hume terrace par, restaurant me and underground building, sab jagah cadets ko daalna padega.' Faizi realised.
' Hmm. Baaki ka plan, academy me discuss karte hai ' Karan advised him. 

The journey back to academy was quick to happen. All were drifted in their own thoughts and worlds. Sid was looking at Sanjana from time to time, wondering if she remembers what they spoke about. 

Monami was trying to sleep. But thoughts were constantly disturbing her. She had to build up a lot of courage to come to the academy, face her Father, who thinks she will not be able to survive and Karan who holds some unknown grudge against her. How will she complete her training, especially when she knows Sid is up to no good. She turns here and there. Accidentally, a earring falls off, but she doesn't seem to realise it. Koel is tensed. Now that Sid has come back, she has to do whatever she can to put Sid out of the academy. Nothing personal but Sid knows about Nikhil, or atleast has a hint of him. Koel cannot risk it.
